"Who's coming? The Yanmen Pass has been closed, if you want to pass, wait until noon, if not, don't blame me for not being prepared! ”

As soon as I approached the place where the Yanmen Pass was, I suddenly heard a blast.

"If you have nothing to do and quit half a mile to rest, otherwise you will be taken as a spy!"

Hearing this, Wei Tao understood, no wonder he had seen some people resting on the road early before, and he still showed a smile when he saw himself and others advancing.

It turned out that this Yanmen Pass had strictly implemented the passage system.

"It's strange, in the past, this Yanmen Pass was not so tightly checked, but now what is going on?"

Zhang Liao is a person who has lived in the state for a long time, and naturally knows that although the Yanmen Pass is also charged a lot of tolls on weekdays, it is not strict to the specific time when the switch is the reason.

But Zhang Liao still took a step forward at this time.

"Dare to ask this general to say goodbye, we are under the command of Ding Assassin Shi of Bingzhou, and we went to Mayi outside the Guanwai on the order of Lord Assassin Shi, and my lord is the county lieutenant of Mayi. Along the way, the car and horses are tired, and please be accommodating. ”

Just as Zhang Liao was speaking, Wang He on the side also stepped forward and raised the official seal high.

"Wait!"

After all, Wei Tao was a sergeant under the rule of Bingzhou, and the other party obviously didn't dare to be disrespectful, so he immediately went to report it.

Fortunately, there were no Han officials in Ma Yi for a long time, and this official seal was withdrawn, otherwise Wei Tao would not be so easy to prove his identity.

After a while, I saw the gate of Yanmen Gate open, and two rows of soldiers stood beside them, and the first one stepped forward and said proudly.

"Which of you is the county lieutenant of Mayi? If you see you, the rest of you will come with me. Remind you, this is Yanmen Pass, if you have any ideas, don't blame me for being ruthless! ”

Hearing that the other party was like this, Wei Tao naturally couldn't, the official position of the Yanmen Pass guard was bigger than his own general.

However, when he saw the other party, Wei Tao was still slightly stunned, and only after a while did he hurry to salute.

"Wei Tao has seen General Gao!"

Gao Shun was already the first to take up a post at Yanmen Pass.

In this way, Zhang Liao's doubts can also be answered, with Gao Shun's rigorous temperament, he will definitely not let this Yanmen Pass pass easily, let alone let people spy on the truth because of some tariffs.

"I didn't expect that General Gao had already arrived here in one step, and in the future, I hope that General Gao can help more, and it is really difficult to decide the three troubles of Mayi."

"Oh? Ziyu also knows the theory of the three troubles of Ma Yi? If that's the case, why didn't Ziyu say a word to the adults? In fact, Lord Ding may not just want Ziyu to go to Mayi. Ziyu is not very old, and there will be many times to make contributions in the future, why should he be so anxious? ”

Gao Shun is a square person, but it does not mean that Gao Shun does not know what is true and false between the interpersonal exchanges, but he is unwilling to do it.

Of course, Wei Tao will not know that the reason why Gao Shun said this again is that he really values Wei Tao and does not want Wei Tao to die because of this, but because of Ding Yuan's entrustment.

Ding originally made such an appointment to test whether Wei Tao had any conspiracy, and at the same time, he also wanted to take the opportunity to suppress Chen Liuwei's family.

This repression is not because of hatred.

It is important to know that there are many Han families, and in order to fight against eunuchs and relatives, various families often unite.

But this does not mean that these families are in harmony with each other, and if there is an opportunity to suppress each other's power, no one will let go.

It's just that this kind of suppression is also moderate, and it will not form a life-and-death enmity.

Just like Wei Tao this time, if Wei Tao said that he was powerless, then it was true that the face of the Wei family would be damaged, but Ding Yuan would immediately change to another place for Wei Tao, which was also quite an official position, and it was also equivalent to promoting the Wei family.

It's just that Ding Yuan didn't expect that Wei Tao would really respond to this matter.

You must know that Lu Dao Wei Tao is a descendant of Chen Liuwei's family, and the person who will inherit the Wei family in the future, if he dies because of this, then Ding Yuan is not easy to explain.

So let Gao Shun hint again, if Wei Tao really insisted on going his own way, Ding Yuan would no longer stop it.

Ding Yuan is a state assassin, and Chen Liuwei's family is not weak, but it is not enough to worry Ding Yuan.

"Thank you General Gao for your concern, but Tao has long been interested in ancestor Wei Qing, although Ma Yi is sinister, but it is facing the Xiongnu, and Tao's ambition can be realized."

"Good! In this case, I will no longer hinder you, but if you have the need, as long as I do not violate the principles and I can do it, then I will give you my full support! ”

Even Gao Shun, after seeing Wei Tao's firm confidence, he couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart, and a slightly embarrassed feeling arose.

"Thank you, General."

Wei Tao immediately gave up his hand again, and then said seriously.

"Tao has nothing to ask for, I only wish my Han peace and tranquility, and ask the general to let me out of the customs as soon as possible to go to Mayi."

In this regard, Gao Shun naturally promised that after making sure that there was no problem with the group, he would close the door wide and let them go.

I have to say that there is a difference between inside and outside Yanmen Pass.

Although the place close to Yanmen Pass is also sparsely populated, you can still see a lot of good fields and crops from time to time, but after you go out to Yanmen Pass, you can only see the thatched grass standing high for several miles, and you don't see much good land at all.

After arriving at Mayi, Wei Tao's brows furrowed even more.

The city of Mayi has been completely dilapidated, originally surrounded by walls on all sides, and now the four walls and pools have been missing a small half, I don't know how many years the road has not been repaired, as for the city gate, it is even more missing.

If he hadn't been able to see that there were indeed people inside, I'm afraid Wei Tao would have thought it was a ruin.

"This is Ma Yi?"

Wei Tao really couldn't believe it.

"Yes, young master, this is Ma Yi."

Not only Wei Tao, but even Zhang Liao and other Zhang family disciples were dumbfounded, obviously they didn't expect that Ma Yi would be so dilapidated now, but Wang He seemed to have understood it a long time ago, and said softly.

"In addition, it is said that the Xiongnu and horse bandits also enter Mayi from time to time, and with such a thin city wall, there is no need to say that they can stop anyone."

"I didn't expect Ma Yi to be ruined so far, no wonder there would be those three troubles."

Wei Tao sighed slightly, and then his expression was solemn.

"Everyone is paying attention, since this Ma Yi Diao people are famous, they may not welcome us."

"No!"

Wei Tao nodded, and immediately stepped in first.

From the outside, this Mayi City is a little dilapidated, but when he entered the city, Wei Tao found that it was not as barren as it seemed from the outside.

People come and go, but they are not limited to the Han people, and there are many Huns.

As soon as Wei Tao and the others entered the city like this, they immediately attracted a lot of attention.

"Since this is the case in this city, let alone the county government, let's first find a place to live and settle down, and then see how this horse is doing!"

Wei Tao was talking to Zhang Liao, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw that a few Huns had already come up.

"What do you want to do?"

When they first arrived, everyone's minds were very vigilant, and when they heard Wei Tao drink like this, many people already put their hands on the knives and guns, staring at the comers.

"Hey...... What good goods did you Han people bring? Looking at this frame, there should be a lot of good weapons! Take them all out and take a look! Uncle, I've got it all! ”

Hearing the other party's words, Wei Tao was slightly stunned, and then understood what these Huns meant.

These Huns thought they were those smuggling profiteers.

At the time of the merger of the state, Wei Tao also saw and heard about it, and many people in Zhilu Dao were smuggling weapons and selling them to the Huns in private, and they had made huge profits.

For this matter, even Lu Bu turned a blind eye before, after all, for Lu Bu, even if he gave the Huns a sophisticated weapon, he was not his opponent.

Thinking about it deeply, now that Gao Shun is strictly investigating the Yanmen Pass, there is no intention of prohibiting the circulation of weapons in the interior of the Central Plains.

Ding Yuan is an old man who is scheming, and at the same time loyal to the Han Dynasty, so naturally he can't see such a thing.

"Nonsense! This is the new county lieutenant, acting as the county commander, don't you hurry up and get out of the way! ”

At Wei Tao's signal, a personal soldier beside him immediately scolded loudly.

"County lieutenant? Haha......ha It turned out to be the captain of Dahan County......"

Sure enough, in such a frontier place, the majesty of the Han Dynasty no longer exists, and when they heard this, even the Han people cast indifferent glances, and those Huns laughed even more.

"Doll! Go home and get milk! Haha......ha

"Whew!"

This time, before the man's laughter could be stopped, he suddenly saw a cold light sweep through.

But before he could react, the cold light swept by, and Dou Da's head flew up directly.

The Huns were indeed ferocious, but no matter how ferocious the Huns were, it was impossible for them to react in time at this time, and even the faces of many individuals were still smiling.

"Kill them all!"

On the side is a sword slash at another person, Wei Tao is side is order.

Who followed Wei Tao, except for the original twenty people, all of them were the private soldiers of the Wei family and the Zhang family.

It will be the loyalty of the private soldiers who follow here, needless to say, Wei Tao gave an order, they didn't care so much at all, they just drew their swords and cut them.

Even if there were more than 20 people who originally belonged to Wei Tao, among them, there were nearly ten 'old men' such as Lao Fang, and there would not be much hesitation.

In less than a moment, the more than ten people who came up were all killed, and there was not even a little struggle to resist.

At this time, Wei Tao raised his head and looked around, but he saw that the people who were either indifferent or laughing just now were all flustered, and then scattered.

There are not many streets in the first place, and they are empty in an instant.

"Looks like we're really not popular!"

Seeing this driving, Wei Tao couldn't help but laugh at himself slightly, but there was no fear on his face.

But at this time, Zhang Liao beside him couldn't help frowning slightly, his eyes swept around, and after a while, he took a few steps forward and came to Wei Tao's side.
