Chapter 53: Extinguishing the Mouth

Luo Zheng finally smiled, "Don't worry, you two followed General Ben to kill from the Central Plains to Hebei, and from Hebei to the desert. General Ben is not a ruthless and unrighteous person, how can he kill the two of you. ”

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief and put their hanging hearts back in their stomachs.

Wang Fang said with a smile: "General, don't worry, if you don't talk about it, the last general will soon forget." ”

Li Meng also said: "The last general has been in the army for six years, even though he has fought to the death to kill the enemy, and every time he is rewarded for his merits, he is always excluded by others. Only the general is not thin on the end of the general, and he is given a big responsibility. To put it mildly, even if the general led his brothers to rebel, the last general would never frown. In the end, there will be a rotten life, and it is a big deal to die, what a pity! ”

"Bold!"

Luo Zheng feigned anger and said: "I work for the prime minister, how can I make such a big rebellious statement." ”

"Hey, hey!"

Both of them saw that he was not really angry, and he laughed a few times.

Only then did Luo Zheng turn his anger into joy and said, "General Ben is not worried about the two of you, but about others. ”

The two of them looked puzzled, and they were a little unclear.

Luo Zheng said solemnly: "Although there are only two of you left in the know, because of the haste of the matter, there are many suspicions, and there will inevitably be people in the army who discuss it privately. The two of you can secretly pay attention these days, and if anyone doubts the cause of death of Hu Mao and Niu Jin, you can guide them with words first. If you have doubts that are difficult to solve, you don't have to be soft and find an opportunity to deal with them. ”

"The last will obey."

The two of them looked stunned and immediately surrendered their orders.

Luo Zheng said again: "There is one more matter, the matter related to the ironclad chain horse, it must be strictly guarded and not leaked. ”

"The last general knows."

The two said yes again.

Early the next morning, the army rose out of camp and continued westward.

Five days later, more than 3,000 Xiliang iron riders finally arrived in the territory of Wuyuan.

Luo Zheng ordered the army to rest for the night, and then led the army from Manyi Valley through Yinshan and south to Wuyuan.

Although it entered the state, the five plains were the land of the border fortress, and most of the places were still the wilderness of the flat river.

The autumn wind is whining, and the yellow leaves are scattered.

More than 3,000 horsemen rolled south, and the momentum was huge, and the nearby nomadic tribes were panicked.

The population of Wuyuan County is complex, there are Han people, there are Xiongnu people, Qianghu people, the folk customs are very different from the Central Plains, the folk customs are extremely strong, and the social situation is somewhat similar to Liangzhou, where Qiang and Hu live together.

Luo Zheng led his army all the way south, passing through many nomadic tribes, and there was no trouble when he arrived.

Only when passing through Shan Yuting, thousands of Hun cavalry followed from afar, which was very unfriendly. Fortunately, the Huns did not dare to provoke this Xiliang cavalry lightly, but they just monitored all the way, and waited for the Xiliang cavalry to leave Shan Yuting and go south, and then stopped at Tongtian Mountain.

Over Huo Dashan, it is the boundary of Hedong.

Luo Zhengle was stationed in the mountain pass, looking at the north from afar, and he couldn't help but feel endless emotion in his heart.

From the Wuguan to Nanyang, all the way to the Central Plains, to Hebei, to the north to Youzhou, out of the Saiwai, through the desert from the Yinshan to the south, and then to the east of the river, it lasted more than four months, a whole circle, not to mention thousands of miles.

Even if it is a tough guy like Xu Chu, his face is full of frost and fatigue.

As for the soldiers in other places, not to mention, their minds were already exhausted and in urgent need of rest.

"We're back!"

Luo Zheng lifted the reins of his horse and roared to his heart's content.

Whoa!

More than 3,000 Xiliang cavalry all opened their voices and shouted, venting their exhaustion.

Everyone looked at the majestic figure on the hill with great enthusiasm and admiration.

In fact, since entering the Central Plains, these veterans never thought that they would be able to come back alive.

The Central Plains is not Xiliang, and there is a price to pay for running horses there.

In fact, this is indeed the case, not only Hu Zhen died, but Luancheng lost more than half of the men and horses in the first battle.

However, today, there are still more than 3,000 riders back.

Although it took a big circle, he finally returned to Guanzhong.

And this qiē credit was recorded on Luo Zheng's head by the three thousand soldiers.

Even Xun Yu looked at Luo Zhengdi at this moment, his eyes were very complicated, with admiration and depression.

was captured from Yanzhou and held hostage all the way to Hedong.

When it comes to such a thing, no one can be happy.

However, on the night of Luancheng's sneak attack, I witnessed Luo Zheng risking his life to save his young son, and even Luo Zheng's personal captain was spattered with blood on the long street and paid for his life, and the thorn in Xun Yu's heart gradually faded.

These days, all the way out of Youzhou, and from Yinshan to the customs, I have seen a lot and realized a lot.

The ancients Zeng Yun said that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books.

Along the way, what he saw and heard made Xun Yu have a further understanding of the situation in the Han Dynasty.

Pack on the hill.

Luo Zheng waved away from the schools, leaving only Li Meng and Wang Fang, and asked, "How are things going?" ”

Li Meng replied: "The general can rest assured, twelve people have been executed, and there will be no mistakes." ”

Luo Zheng nodded and said, "That's good, let's go, go back to Luoyang!" ”

After that, he took Xu Chu to urge the horse to run down the hill.

Li Meng and Wang Fang hurriedly followed, and the army soon set off again and rolled south.

At noon, Anyi went to the official road of Shaanxi County, a carriage was moving slowly, the driver of the car was an old servant who was nearly fifty years old, and there were more than ten generals around the carriage, and at a glance it was known that it was from a large family.

The weather is too hot, and the family will keep wiping their sweat while walking.

As the carriage moved, the wooden wheels creaked and swayed, and the road was uneven.

At this moment, there was a sudden shout from the side of the road, and dozens of ragged refugees rushed out, shouting and surrounding the carriages, all with sticks in their hands, greedily staring at the horses pulling the carts.

The faces of the generals immediately changed, and they hurriedly drew their swords in their hands and protected the carriage in the middle.

"Get out of the car, get out of the car."

The refugees shouted loudly and threatened, but they did not pounce directly on them.

The generals understood at a glance that the feelings were a group of robbers, but it seemed that this group of robbers probably had no experience and did not have much courage, otherwise why talk nonsense, they would have pounced on it a long time ago, and they were a little at ease.

In the carriage, the two women also changed color.

The woman sitting in the middle of the ground looked like a flower, about seventeen or eighteen years old, and at first glance she was the master.

The girl sitting next to her was about fourteen years old, and her appearance was quite outstanding, and she looked like a maidservant.

"Miss, no, there are bandits robbing the road."

The little maid lifted the curtain of the car, glanced out quickly, and quickly withdrew her gaze, and said to the young lady with a white face, full of panic, as if she was about to faint with fright.

The young lady frowned and said, "Don't be afraid, let's see." ”

The little maid said in a panic: "However, the little maid heard that the bandits are all extremely vicious, and if any woman is captured, she will be humiliated by the bandits, and the end will be extremely miserable. ”

The young lady was still very calm, but when she heard what the little maid said, she immediately became nervous.

Hearing the shouts of those bandits again, his face gradually changed a little.

On the official road, there are dozens of men and women, old and young, all bandits are still in a stalemate with the generals.

Both sides have taken care of it, and no one dares to take the lead.

At this moment, there was a faint rumbling sound from the north side of the official road, as if it was thundering.

When a bandit turned his head to look, he saw dust rising from the north, a bit like a sandstorm.

Soon, however, everyone's faces changed.

I saw thousands of black-pressed cavalry appear in sight, coming like a whirlwind all over the mountains.

"Oh my God, run!"

Dozens of thieves screamed as a thief, and without saying a word, they immediately threw away the sticks and ran.

More than a dozen generals also changed their faces sharply, although they also wanted to run, but how could they outrun the cavalry, so they had to hurriedly drive the carriage off the official road, and make way for this group of cavalry who suddenly appeared, hoping to escape.

Soon, thousands of cavalry were in close proximity.

I saw that two hundred horsemen suddenly separated from the high-speed running cavalry, drove all the escaped bandits back, and regathered around the carriage.

More than a dozen generals were also sweating on their foreheads, and their hands were trembling slightly with knives.

Thousands of cavalry surrounded the carriage and did not move further, which made the generals feel at ease.

In the carriage, the little maid secretly walked out again, and said to the young lady, "Miss, it's a Han cavalry." ”

The young lady said lightly: "It's the Xiliang cavalry." ”

The little maid said 'oh' and said puzzledly: "What's the difference?" ”

The young lady said: "There is no difference, but there are many Han cavalry, and there are cavalry in Youzhou and Bingzhou, all of which can be said to be Han cavalry." But the Xiliang cavalry is Dong Chengxiang's army. ”

"Little maid understood."

The little girl's eyes were stunned, and she lifted a crack to look secretly.

Then the cavalry formation separated, and a young general rode out and came to the carriage.

The little maid's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly said to the young lady: "Miss, look, this general is really handsome, and he is still so young." ”

The young lady said angrily: "When is it, are you still in the mood to comment on the man." ”

The little maid stuck out her tongue and hurriedly lowered the curtain.
