Shi Yan held the water bladder and poured water into his mouth, and the water stains overflowed from the corners of his mouth, and his clothes were dripping. In the end, he poured the water on the top of his head, drenched his body, slammed the water bladder to the ground, gasped for breath, and under the gentle gaze of Ma Han, he told the truth of the incident one by one.

Shortly after Ma Han left Changshan and returned to western Liaoning, the Zhen clan of Zhongshan also had a long procession of chariots and horses to set off for Liaodong. This is a wedding team, Zhen Qin, the third daughter of the Zhen family, married Gongsun Gong, the second son of Gongsun Du, Taishou of Liaodong.

From Zhongshan to Liaodong, you can take the land route, you can also take the sea route, the sea route takes a short time, and the way is still peaceful, Zhen's merchants in Liaodong come and go, and take this road more. But this time he was unlucky, and he was encountering the Youzhou War, and in order to prevent Yuan Shao from fishing in troubled waters, Tiankai blocked the Bohai Sea and Qingzhou, and banned the passage of Jizhou merchants. In desperation, Zhen's wedding team had to change to the west of Youzhou. Enter Daijun from Feihukou, exit from Gaoliu, turn all the way to the northeast through Danhan Mountain, pass through Pinggang, Liucheng and Yangle, and enter the subject country of Liaodong.

This walk is more than a month, although the journey is difficult, fortunately the road is safe, along the way all the tribal forces have given Liaodong Taishou and Zhongshan Zhen's face, and the reception is very enthusiastic. This good fortune lasted until the subject state of Liaodong, and then turned into bad luck.

Just yesterday, the wedding party encountered a Karasuma cavalry, and the other party suddenly attacked, and all of them were robbed with people and cars. Shi Yan and other accompanying guards were imprisoned in the tent, and in the middle of the night, taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the guards, they cut through the tent and escaped. At that time, there were more than a dozen people who escaped, and they were captured by the Karasuma people one after another, and in the end, only Shi Yan managed to escape...... Of course, if it weren't for the horse warrior, Shi Yan would have been arrested sooner or later.

After Shi Yan finished speaking, he knelt on his knees and bowed heavily: "I implore Ma Jun to save the third lady." Zhen felt a great favor from top to bottom. ”

Ma Hanmo rubbed his chin, pondered for a moment, and asked, "When you were captured, did you say that this was the family sending team of the Taishou Mansion in Liaodong?" ”

"I said it, but the Karasuma people didn't pay attention to it at all."

This is strange, in this Liaodong vassal country, is there still a guy who is not afraid of Gongsun Du and openly slaps his face? However, it is not surprising to think about it, this Liaodong subject country naturally belongs to Liaodong County in terms of regionality. But in fact, it is hung in the name of Gongsun Zhan, and in the long list of titles of Gongsun Zhan, there is also a position of the governor of Liaodong. And this is also the first position of Gongsun Chan to squeeze into the high-ranking official of Qianshi, which has special significance in his career of more than ten years.

In the early years, Gongsun Chan and the rebellious Zhang Chun, Zhang Ju, and Qiu Li lived in the Shimen battle of the subject state of Liaodong, and the war almost burned to Liaodong. After that, Gongsun Du ran Liaodong, and Gongsun Zhan turned south and competed with Yuan Shao. The belonging of this Liaodong vassal state. It's blurry. Gongsun Du wanted to start, but he didn't dare, for fear of provoking the evil star, and Gongsun Chan occupied an enclave. If you don't spit it out, I can't eat it, and I want to stalk you, and as a result, the subject country of Liaodong has become a territory that doesn't care about anything.

The officials of the subordinate counties are better. After all, with Liaodong at its back, there are many reliances, and the government tends to Liaodong more than Youzhou. But the local Hu people don't sell Gongsun Du's accounts very much. The Hu people revere the strong and despise the weak. Although everyone's surname is Gongsun, compared with the Gongsun of Liaodong and the Gongsun of Youzhou, it is too far behind. The Hu people are afraid of the white horse general, but they are not afraid of the grandson of Liaodong. And in view of the particularity of the subject country of Liaodong, Gongsun Du did not dare to use the sword soldiers, who knows if it will cause a backlash from Youzhou? Therefore, the Hu people of Liaodong's vassal states, especially the powerful Karasuma people, have never been very cold to Liaodong. This situation lasted until Gongsun Chan died and Gongsun Du became king, but that was a later story, at least for now, the Karasuma people of Liaodong really didn't take Gongsun Du seriously.

Roughly understanding what had happened, Ma Han beckoned: "Bring those two Karasuma people over." ”

Ma Han asked directly in Karasuma, that is, the Xiongnu with a Mobei accent and a slight umlaut, "Who is your lord?" ”

As soon as they heard this authentic Karasuma language, the hearts of the two Karasuma people suddenly settled down a lot, and they were overjoyed and said, "You are also a Karasuma person?" May I ask who is the subordinate of the Ministry of Accounts? "They think of Ma Han as a fellow Karasuma who defected to White Wolf City.

Ma Han frowned and said, "It seems that I asked first, right?" ”

The two Karasuma people nodded again and again: "We are the subordinates of the left commander of the Cliff King's department. ”

"The Crag King? Su Fuyan! "Although it is a little unexpected, it is also reasonable, because this Liaodong vassal country is the territory of Su Muyan, the king of the cliff, but I didn't expect to touch it.

Ma Han nodded secretly, that's right, no matter how Su Muyan didn't sell Liaodong's account, he wouldn't do such a stupid thing as a blatant slap in the face, he could only do it without permission, and asked at the moment: "Captain Zuo?" Who is it? ”

"The eldest son of the king of the cliff replied."

It turned out to be this guy, what a fate! Why is it that every time you run into him, you are robbing women? Ma Han looked up at Wu Chai, and sure enough, as soon as the kid heard the name of "Answer", the green tendons on his forehead suddenly burst out, his fists clenched, and he clenched his fists at Ma Han: "City guard, let's find this bastard to ask for someone." ”

"City ...... Castle guards? Although the two Karasuma people couldn't speak, they could also understand Chinese, and they were dumbfounded.

Ma Han smiled: "I almost forgot to introduce myself, I am the White Wolf City Guard, Ma Han." ”

……

Between Liucheng in Liaoxi and the migrating river of Liaodong vassal country, there is a city, this is the Husu City in the Western Han Dynasty, the tributary of the white wolf water, Tang Zhushui (now Xiaoling River) meanders from the south of the city, flows down to the east, rushes for hundreds of miles, and flows into the sea.

However, in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the city is still there, but there is no Husu City anymore. Eventually, because of the high degree of autonomy, the people of the tribes, regardless of the criminal and civil affairs, were subordinate to the heads of the tribes and ignored the government, and the prefecture established by the imperial court existed in name only. In the end, Husu, like Wencheng and Guangcheng in western Liaoxi, had a city but no name, a people but no nationality, a land but no endowment, and finally disappeared from the territory of the Han Dynasty.

This former Husu City is now the base camp of Su Fuyan, the king of the cliff. However, Su Muyan has always liked to live in the dilapidated city, but built a king's tent more than ten miles south of the city to watch things, and only moved back to the city when the cold winter came. Among the kings of Karasuma, Su Muyan's tent fell thousands, and he controlled eight thousand, and his strength was still above that of Wuyan, the king of Khanlu, second only to Liucheng Badun and Shanggu Nanlou.

Although Su Muyan's strength ranks among the top three forces in Karasuma. But the trouble that his eldest son had caused him yesterday still made him angry and worried. For this reason, he called his eldest son to the king's tent, and trained him fiercely for a long time, and finally did not forget to warn: "...... Anyway, you can't touch the woman until it's taken care of, hear no! ”

The answer was unwilling to bow down, and muttered, "The child saw this woman grooming by the river, and she was very beautiful." That's why I took someone to rob it, and I didn't know at the time that she was the bride of the son of Gongsun Taishou! ”

Su Fuyan said angrily: "Then you later found out, and you actually arrested all the wedding teams, including the welcoming envoys of the Liaodong Taishou Mansion?" Do you know how much trouble this will get us? ”

"There are too many troubles in Gongsun Du's own county to count, I don't know how many families are opposing him, and now he is suppressing opposition forces everywhere, and his forces are scattered, how can he trouble us because of a woman......"

"!" Su Fuyan spat on his son, "Although this matter is not big. But it's a matter of face, if there is no explanation, Gongsun Du will definitely be in trouble. ”

"Everyone has already grabbed it, in short, it has offended Liaodong. Even if you send it back and apologize again, then Gongsun Du may not be able to afford to lose this face, and he will always find us trouble. It's better to take them all in one guy...... Father, the dowry is really rich! Are you willing? ”

I heard my son mention Zhen's wedding ceremony. Even Su Fuyan's eyes lit up. Indeed, it's okay if you don't know, but seeing such a rich gift with your own eyes, and then trying to make him vomit, no matter what, I am unwilling.

"But there has to be an explanation for this matter, and it is good to explain to the Liaodong side......" Su Fuyan stroked his beard with his thick hands and muttered silently. He is not afraid of Liaodong, and Gongsun Du will not use swords because of a woman, but he has to give the other party a step down.

"Father, brother...... The daughter has a plan. A loud voice came from outside the tent, and the curtain was lifted, and a man entered. Su Fuyan didn't need to look up, he knew that the person who spoke was his second daughter Zhenguo. This is a slightly chubby girl, with a round face and thin eyebrows, dressed in a thick cloth and beard, and can't hide the two bulging lumps of flesh on her chest.

When he first replied that he wanted to marry Niannu, he said that he was to be a companion to his sister, and it turned out that he really had a sister.

Su Fuyan frowned: "What can you do?" ”

Zhenguo rolled his eyes carefully, and said angrily: "Has my father and brother forgotten the old custom of 'robbing relatives'?" ”

"Kiss grab!" Su Muyan seemed to think of something, and his eyes lit up.

Zhenguo continued: "Let's just say that this incident is still caused by 'snatching relatives', and there is no offense. If the Gongsun family wants to get back people and property, they will let the Gongsun Gong himself or his guests come to try to win the relatives according to the rules of robbing relatives. Then we can deliberately lose to him, so that he can save face, and at the same time we can still keep half of our possessions, so that we are beyond reproach. ”

"Good plan!" Su Fuyan was overjoyed and slapped his thigh hard. That's right! I forgot about this custom, there is no better idea.

The father and son looked at each other and laughed, and before the laughter could stop, four Karasuma people covered in mud and dust suddenly knelt outside the tent, kowtowed and pleaded guilty: "My lord, we chased and killed the escaped prisoners, but we didn't catch them, and we lost more than ten brothers." ”

"What?" Su Fuyan's father and son were furious, "One person will make you look like this!" Could it be that he is a horse dragon! ”

One of the Karasuma men muttered, "We were attacked by the army of White Wolf City, so we ......"

White Wolf City! Ma Jinglong! It can't be that coincidental, right?

The father and son looked at each other, and were about to ask again, when they suddenly saw a horse rushing in the distance, and their voices were frightened: "Liaodong Riding Captain, White Wolf City Guarding Horse and Dragon came to visit your lord!" ”

Ma Jinglong! Mako's eyes lit up.

Su Fuyan was so shocked that he couldn't speak, and only asked after half a sound, "...... he How many centaurs were brought? ”

"More than fifty horsemen, and dozens of servants."

Su Fuyan's heart was relieved, and he exhaled softly, and was about to discuss with his son, but when he turned his head, he found that his son's expression was wrong.

"He's coming......" replied muttering to himself, his teeth chattering, his eyes shining fiercely, reaching out to hold the meat cleaver at his waist, and pulling his leg to leave.

Su Fuyan shouted: "Answer, what are you doing?" ”

"Father, this is a rare opportunity, he only brought dozens of horsemen to our territory......"

"Bastard!" Su Fuyan was furious, slapped his son on the door of his bare head, and his hair was braided, "What chance?" Kill him? Do I have a grudge against Ma Jinglong? Do you have a grudge against Ma Jinglong? Just because he once shot you a horse? Who is Ma Jinglong? Liaodong cavalry captain, white wolf city guard, unbeatable force, thousands of soldiers. In the front, Kebi can be disabled, and after that, Wuyan is covered with nests. How much stronger do you think my Su Fuyan is than them? It's so strong, it's too late for us to make friends, and you still want to make enemies with it! How stupid! ”

The answer also realized that he was blinded by the humiliation of the past, and almost caused trouble, but he was unconvinced: "But when he came to visit his father, he was obviously uneasy and kind, and nine times out of ten he came for that batch of goods." ”

Su Fuyan said coldly: "So what? Are we to be messed with again? Hum! No matter what his intentions are, if he wants to snatch food from my Su Fuyan's mouth, it depends on how good his wolf's minions are! Herald, please enter the city! (To be continued......)
