~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In June of the first year of Xingping, Chen Liutai guarded Zhang Miao, his younger brother Zhang Chao, governed Chen Gong, engaged in Xu Yan and Wang Kai, and jointly welcomed Lu Bu, who fled from Yuan Shao to Yanzhou and took refuge in Chen Liu, as the pastor of Yanzhou, officially opening the prelude to the anti-Cao.

In the essay drafted by Chen Gong to discuss Cao, the text is agitated, angrily denouncing Cao's lack of morality. first killed the world's famous people and occupied his wife; Later, there was a massacre of Pengcheng and a corpse stuffed in Surabaya. For two years of pastoral guarding, he did not think about passing through the counties and counties, recuperating and recuperating, and helping the people's livelihood and the poor. As a result, the people's livelihood in the prefecture and county withered, the hardship was unbearable, the sky was angry and the people were resentful, and there was a major drought. Evil deeds are obvious, and the gentlemen of the world are all sideways. Today, when Lu Wenhou, who killed the national thief, responded to the heavens, he was ordered to get rid of the thieves and save the people.

All of a sudden, the counties within the Cao influence of Yanzhou responded one after another. In the end, except for Puyang, which was garrisoned by Xiahou Dun's heavy troops and did not dare to make any changes, only Juancheng where Xun Yu was stayed, Dong'e where Zaoyi was stationed, and Fan County, where Jin Yun was in charge, were still in the hands of the Cao family, and the rest of the counties were all rebellious. Cao Cao's governance in Yanzhou is contrary to the people's support, which can be seen from this.

Among all the rebellions, the first counties to respond were Juye's Xue Lan and Li Feng. At this time, the sandalwood box with the official seal on the desk is no longer a copper seal and black ribbon (more than 400 stones. official positions below 1,000 stones), but silver seals and blue ribbons (above 1,000 stones, below 2,000 stones). Don't drive in Yanzhou, this is the official position that Lu Buxu gave to Xue Lan. And Li Feng was also promoted from being engaged in the history of governance to being engaged in Peng, and his deputy position was turned into a regular position.

Since they have a high position, they naturally have to have something to show themselves, Xue Lan and Li Feng set their sights on the Li clan of the Cheng clan who was a hundred miles away. They first used the friendship of the township party to invite Li Gan's father, son, and nephew to come to Juye to discuss matters. Because the Li family's father and son and nephew are all big savages, in their own hometown, of course, they won't have too many concerns. Gladly went.

However, before entering the city, Li Dian kept an eye on it and asked two gatekeepers with superb swordsmanship to pretend to be vendors and stand guard near the west gate of Juye City. It was Li Dian's move that finally allowed them to escape, so that their father, son and nephew would not be buried in their hometowns.

Seeing that Li's father, son and nephew were in the room, Xue Lan and Li Feng showed their hole cards and asked Li Gan to do things together. Serve Lu Bu as the main one. Li Gan had previously staked the future fate of his family on Cao Cao, successively helping troops, food, and even personally leading more than 1,000 guests to form an army. With Cao Cao, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Rebellion was quelled. We have made investment for nearly two years, and the results are remarkable, and the harvest is imminent, how can we change course? Two years of work. The exhaustion of military rations is all in vain, who will do such a thing of being caught in the brain? Take 10,000 steps back. If you want to hug the thigh of the new master, you have to hug it yourself, in order to get the maximum benefit, and you can do things with you, and be a role of waving flags and shouting, what is it?

Li Gan, a person with more than enough vigor and insufficient opportunity, refused on the spot and walked away. It's just, if you don't agree, you want to leave? How can there be such a bargain?

As soon as the Xue Lan cup fell, the ambush soldiers rose in all directions, and in the melee, Li Gan, who was caught off guard, was stabbed in the abdomen, and blood splashed in the temple. Under the protection of his sons and nephews, he rushed out of the temple and fled. Originally, Xue and Li planned very well, but if things were not harmonious, as soon as the ambush soldiers came out, the city gates were closed, and it was difficult to escape from disciplining Li's father and son. Unexpectedly, Li Dian still had hole cards, and the two doormen outside the west gate burst into a sudden killing, killing the guards who wanted to close the door, and struggling to defend the city gate, and also guarded the only way to survive. Finally, before the arrival of the Juye army, he took the Li father, son and nephew to escape from the city.

And then it was as Ma Han saw it. After listening to Li Quan's clear explanation of the ins and outs of the matter, Ma Han knew that the chaos in Yanzhou was really not small, and Cao Cao's fun was great now.

Later, Li Cheng also asked Ma Han why he was here, and Ma Han's answer was very honest, "Pick up a relative of a subordinate who surrenders to Cheng." Of course, there is no need for him to elaborate on who this defector is and what kind of force he belongs to. Although the Li people were surprised, they didn't ask in detail, their own affairs were not enough for a headache.

Ma Han originally wanted to stop here overnight and then set out on the road the next day, but unfortunately, Li Gan died of his injuries that night, vomiting several liters of blood and dying. For a while, the Li family was sad and weeping blood, and the clouds were gloomy. This time, it is reasonable to be reasonable, and it is inconvenient to go on the road immediately. Ma Han can only return to Chengshi County with the Li family, and wait for the Li family to set up a mourning hall and worship without losing etiquette. Under Ma Han's repeated requests, Li Cheng finally did not publicize the matter of Ma Han's rescue to the clan, but clearly promised that if Ma Han asked for something, even if he asked for soldiers and food, even if he opened his mouth, the Li family had clear grievances and grievances, and he would try his best to meet them.

Ma Han just thanked him, but didn't ask for anything - Mo said that he really didn't have any requirements at the moment, and even if he had, he couldn't mention it in the midst of a big funeral.

Ma Han and his entourage, with a mission, naturally can't stay for a long time, the Yanzhou Rebellion has risen, and he must do his best to pick up the father of Lejin. Three days later, when the etiquette was exhausted, Ma Han said goodbye to Li Quan, the new head of the Li family, but at this time, Li Cheng was already lying on the couch. Li was already injured, and he was sad that his father had died, coupled with the fatigue of the funeral, internal and external problems, even the iron body couldn't resist it. In history, Li Cheng was such a strong man, and he was in his prime, and because he made great contributions to blocking Lu Bu, he was played by Cao Cao as the Qingzhou Thorn History at a young age, but he suddenly died of illness when he was the most energetic in his life, which cannot help but make people suspect that it was related to this injury. The recurrence of old wounds is the most likely to kill you.

After Li Quanqiang supported his sick body and thanked him repeatedly, Li Dian was ordered by his brother to personally send Ma Han on board. In addition to replenishing food and straw for Ma Han, the Li family did not have any gifts, and Ma Han did not mind, he was also mixed in the road in his previous life, and he knew the temperament of the gangsters. These heroic figures, pay attention to a great kindness without thanks, give generous gifts and money, that are all inferior, when necessary, they give you back, is a life.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the ship sailed out of the twenty miles, two medium-sized ships of 300 Hu followed by them, with the Li flag on the bow. Under the banner, there was a young man in filial piety dressed in white clothes, who was Li Dian.

The horse warriors and the white wolf warriors were surprised, what is the situation?

"I am willing to walk with my brother, enter Onozawa together, and intercept and kill the two thieves of Xue and Li!" Li Dian's first words of meeting made people adrenaline rush. It should be noted that Li Dian was only eighteen years old at this time, three years younger than Ma Han, so he called Ma Han his brother. But he looked too mature, he had a mustache on his lips, and he looked older. Historically, Li Dian was only thirty years old, but he was known as an elder in the army, which was also related to his old appearance.

Only half an hour ago, Li Dian had nothing to do with sending Ma Han onto the ship, and in the blink of an eye, he made such a serious decision, something must have happened.

Truly. There are special events happening.

When Li Dian had just sent Ma Han away and returned to the mansion, he was immediately summoned into the inner hall by his cousin Li Quan and told him the news that he had just discovered: Lu Bu's army had attacked Puyang. is preparing to attack Zhencheng. Zhencheng is only more than 200 miles away from Juye, so Lu Bu passed a book and asked Xue Lan and Li Feng to lead troops to help in the battle. After discussing with Xue and Li, they felt that this opportunity to beat the water dogs should not be missed. Immediately decided to send 3,000 troops and personally receive help.

The quickest route to get from Juno to Zhencheng is to take a boat to Onozawa. To the mouth of the Guzi River landing, to the west of a hundred miles is Zhencheng.

Li Quan thinks that this is an excellent opportunity for revenge, intercepting and killing the two thieves in Onoze, avenging his father, and paying tribute to his head as a son.

The Li clan and the disciples were passionate, and they asked for their lives, and to put it in their hearts, Li Dian actually did not approve of doing such an assassination during the mourning. Li Dian is a bit of an alternative person in the Li family, he was not a soldier when he was young, and he only liked to read. Maybe it's because "shooting" is one of the six arts of a gentleman, so he learns the best, and the rest of the riding battles, foot battles, and swordsmanship are not as good as his brother. Compared with Li Quan, Li Dian is not as brave as he is, but he is too shrewd.

However, a powerful family like the Li family, which has thousands of soldiers, tends to act bravely and decisively. If you can solve a problem with your hands, you won't use your brain; What can be solved today will not wait for tomorrow.

"My Li family has kindness to repay kindness, there is grievance to repay grievances, grace is not the next year, revenge is not overnight, this revenge is not revenge, swear not to be a person!" Li Quan, who was on the sickbed, looked at Li Dian with his eyes breathing fire, holding arrows in both hands, breaking them in two, and looking directly at Li Dian, "If you don't go, I'll go!" ”

Li Dian fell to the ground in fear: "Don't be like this, the Li clan motto, dare or forget, my brother is willing to use this small body to fight for the dirty blood of the two thieves!" ”

Before leaving, Li Cheng didn't say many encouraging words, only said: "In front of Father Weng's coffin, there are only two sacrifices left." ”

Li Dian bowed to the head: "Even if the younger brother is smeared with liver and brain, he should also kill the head of the enemy." ”

So, Li Dian came.

Ma Han looked at the two big boats and asked, "How many people did Mancheng bring?" ”

"There are 200 guests, 30 armors, bows and arrows, and weapons are all prepared, and money and food are used for ten days."

In just half an hour, it was obviously impossible to be so well prepared, and it can only be said that the Li family had been prepared. Thinking that even if there was no accident of Xue Lan and Li Feng leaving Juye, after the funeral, the Li family would definitely launch a revenge operation. But even if he is eager for revenge, there is no need to be so hasty, Li Quan is so anxious, Li Dian is so chasing, in fact, there is an important reason why it is inconvenient to announce - to take advantage of the momentum of the horse.

With the prestige of Ma Han spread all over Huai and Si, and the amazing table of the cattle knife test during the rescue that day, the Li family has already concluded that this Liaodong Tianju and its guards are all elite soldiers with one as ten, and if they can get help, great things can be done.

What kind of person is Ma Han, how can the Li brothers not be able to see this little bit of caution, but he will not say anything, he just smiled slightly, and made a gesture to Li Dian to invite him in and talk in detail.

Li Dian is also a clever master, as soon as he saw the look on Ma Han's face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, he knew that his brother's intentions could not be concealed, so he arched his hand and said "ashamed". Tacitly acquiescing to each other, relieved and smiling.

A topographic map of Onozawa was spread out on the case, and Li Dian was pointing at the map: "Onozawa is a hundred miles wide from east to west, and it is not a one-day transition, and it is in the north of the middle of the lake...... It is in this location that there is a sandbar that emerges from the water in winter and floods in summer, making it a resting place for travelers. Although it is the height of summer, there is a severe drought this year, and the water has dropped sharply, and the sandy land that has exposed the water is even worse than in winter. If the prediction is correct, the two thieves will anchor here for one night and land the next day. ”

Ma Han didn't ask how this map came about, how accurate it was, the Li clan was the head snake of Juye and Cheng's clan, and the terrain on his own territory could really be drawn with his eyes closed. He looked at the small circle representing the sandbar on the map, and looked at Li Dian quietly: "Xue and Li have 3,000 soldiers and horses, which is ten times more strange than ours, what plan does Man Cheng want to ambush?" ”

Li Dian picked up his pen and wrote the word "fire" on the small circle of the sandbar.

Ma Han smiled, the weather is dry, you really have to be careful of the candle! (To be continued......)
