Hu Ban arrived at the pavilion and asked Ming Nanye and Guan Yu where they lived, and then peeked into the room of the two. Guan Yu was drinking with Zhang Xiu and the others and was not in the room, so Hu Ban went to Nan Ye's residence. Nan Ye was on guard, and when he heard a movement outside the door, he cast his skill.

Will Xinglu: Hu Ban, engaged under Wang Zhi of Xingyang Taishou, the son of Hu Hua of Emperor Huan. was ordered to set fire to Guan Yu at night, and because he saw the letter entrusted by his father at Guan Yu's place, he let Guan Yu go.

After reading Jiang Xinglu, Nan Ye remembered Hu Hua's book at that time, and said softly: "Outside the door, Hu Hua's son Hu Ban outside the city of Xudu?" ”

Hu Ban came to Nan Ye's door and just looked inside through the crack in the door, and before he could see Nan Ye's appearance clearly, he heard Nan Ye's question, and he was startled. He shouted in a lost voice: "The national teacher is also a true saint!" After saying that, he pushed the door and entered to greet Nan Ye and said: "The contemptible person is Xingyang Taishou's subordinates engaged in the Hu class, can the national teacher know his father?" ”

Nan Ye smiled: "I have a relationship with Ling Zun, and I have a letter to you." After that, he found Hu Hua's letter from the luggage and handed it to Hu Ban. It is precisely because Nan Ye has read Hu Hua's general Xinglu and knows that this letter is important, so he has always carried it with him, which comes in handy at this time.

Hu Ban sighed after reading the family letter: "I almost killed Zhongliang by mistake!" ”

Nan Ye heard this and said, "But Wang Zhi taught you to set fire in the middle of the night?" ”

Hu Ban was shocked when he heard this: "The national teacher is an unpredictable prophet, and the true god is also!" It was Wang Zhi who was unkind and wanted to harm the national teacher and the generals, so he secretly surrounded the pavilion on all sides, and set fire to it on the third watch. Now I should go and open the city gate first, and the national teacher and the generals will quickly pack up and leave the city. ”

Nan Ye nodded and said, "I know, you go to open the city gate, and then come back and set fire, don't let Wang Zhi be suspicious." If you have the opportunity in the future, you can go to Jiaozhou to vote for me. ”

Not long after Hu Ban nodded and left, the two guards entered the door and said to Nan Ye: "Master Hui, the eight palace guards have been solved by us. The sobering soup prepared by the mage was also sent by the female soldiers to the three generals, who had already fallen asleep by this time. ”

Nan Ye knew that Wang Zhi was going to set fire to the post house, so he planned to leave Zhang Xiu and the others here. What he prepared for the three of them was not a sobering soup at all, but a hemp boiling powder obtained from Hua Tuo. Just now, Nan Ye ordered ten guards to solve the eight eyeliner, and asked the female soldiers to send Ma Boiling Powder to Zhang Xiu and the others, falsely claiming that it was the sobering soup made by Mrs. Gan, and the three of them really fell into the plan.

After getting a reply from the guards, Nan Ye immediately went out of the house to find Guan Yu next door. Although Guan Yu also drank a lot, but without Nan Ye's "sobering soup" Guan Yu was not drunk yet, and was reading a book in the room. When he saw Nan Ye enter the house, he asked, "Can the mage be awake?" What is the matter with coming to me? ”

Nan Ye said: "Shicai Yunchang is not in the room, Hu Hua's son Hu Ban came here to sue me, Wang Zhi asked the third watch to set fire to kill me." Yun Chang quickly went to protect Madame first. ”

Guan Yu was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly went to see Mrs. Gan, but found that Mrs. Gan and the female soldiers had already prepared their bags, obviously getting the news in advance. Seeing this, Guan Yu put on his horse with a knife and escorted Mrs. Gan out of the pavilion and walked towards the city gate.

Seeing Guan Yu leaving, Nan Ye led ten guards to move the two corpses of the armor soldiers in the house to Guan Yu and his own room, pretending to be asleep, and then led the guards to catch up with Guan Yu, and the group came to the edge of the city, only to see that the city gate had been opened. Guan Yu didn't care why Zhang Xiu and the others didn't come, so he hurriedly left the city and went to the garrison of soldiers and horses.

As soon as Guan Yu and Nan Ye returned to the camp, they saw the flames in the city, and it was obvious that Hu Ban had already set the fire. Nan Ye ordered Liao Hua to pull out the camp and set up the village, and then came to Zhang Xiu's camp with Guan Yu, and said to the seven hundred cavalry: "Wang Zhi has bad intentions and set fire in the middle of the night, Zhang Xiu, Zhu Ling, and Lu Zhao The three generals have been buried in the fire, are you willing to go with me to take revenge?" ”

Cao Cao's seven hundred cavalrymen only knew that their task was to escort Nan Ye and Guan Yu, but they didn't know that there was also the task of escorting Nan Ye. At this time, when he heard that the three generals who led the troops were dead, Master Nan Ye wanted to lead everyone to take revenge, and shouted at that time: "I am willing to go with the national teacher to avenge the general!" ”

Nan Ye saw that the army's heart was available, so he and Guan Yu led 700 cavalry to return to the city gate, leaving Liao Hua to lead the troops to protect Mrs. Gan. As soon as the two arrived at the city gate, they saw Wang Zhizheng leading more than 1,000 soldiers and horses out of the city.

It turned out that after Hu Ban set the fire, Wang Zhi also led troops to surround the post house, just because he was afraid that someone would escape. Sure enough, as soon as the fire started, someone rushed out of the post house, running with flames on their bodies and shouting: "It's on fire!" Fight the fire! However, as soon as these people shouted twice, they were drowned by a rain of arrows and died at the hands of Wang Zhi's soldiers.

After shooting more than a dozen people one after another, Wang Zhi felt that something was wrong, because he found that these people who ran out were all pavilion officials and servants in the post house, and none of them were Guan Yu and Nan Ye's guards, let alone Guan Yu, Nan Ye, Zhang Xiu and others.

The more Wang Zhi thought about it, the more wrong it became, and at that time he thought that he had leaked the news, so he hurriedly ordered someone to block the four gates to strengthen the garrison, but he heard that the west gate had been opened. Wang Zhi didn't care about who leaked the news for a while, and ordered Hu Ban to continue to surround the post house, and he personally led a thousand soldiers and horses out of the city to chase him, and met Nan Ye and Guan Yu who led the troops back.

When Guan Yu saw Wang Zhi, he was furious and said, "Piff! I have no grievances with you, why do you set me on fire? ”

Wang Zhi saw that Guan Yu was not dead and did not answer, so he slapped his horse and stabbed Guan Yu with a gun. Guan Yu was furious, and swung the Qinglong Yanyue Knife to block his waist and slash Wang Zhi into two sections. Nan Ye took the opportunity to wield the Heavenly Sword and commanded 700 cavalry to kill Wang Zhi's men and horses.

After the cavalry scattered Wang Zhi's men and horses, they were at a loss, so they gathered beside Nan Ye and Guan Yu. As soon as the three generals Zhang Xiu, Zhu Ling, and Lu Zhao died, the seven hundred cavalry had no commander, and they could only listen to the orders of Nan Ye and Guan Yu.

Nan Ye knew that these Cao Jun's families were all in Xuchang, and it was impossible to take these men and horses for his own use, but it did not prevent him from using these cavalry. So he asked a few cavalry Du Bodao: "The three generals died at the hands of Wang Zhi, and now Wang Zhi has been killed by General Guan, which can be regarded as revenge, are you willing to return to Xu Du to return to his life, or are you willing to send me on a ride again?" ”

Several Dubos looked at each other and discussed for a while, and then said to Nan Ye: "The road ahead is dangerous, and we are willing to continue to escort the national teacher and General Guan." ”

The reply of these cavalry Dubo had long been expected by Nan Ye. If they go back to their lives at this time, they will definitely be punished if they fail to complete the task of guarding Nan Ye and Guan Yu and let the three bosses die. But as long as you complete the task of escorting the two and then go back to your life, you don't have to worry about punishment, and you may even get a reward. At this time, the situation is like the commander on the battlefield is about to die, and the remaining soldiers will be punished if they scatter and become deserters, but if the soldiers bravely kill the enemy and repel the enemy army to complete the strategic goal, it is a meritorious service.

After receiving the reply of the cavalry, Nan Ye and Guan Yu officially took over the cavalry team and began to move towards the boundary of Huazhou. Liu Yan, the defender of Huazhou, had a relationship with Guan Yu, and Guan Yu beheaded Yan Liang is this person in front of the battle. Hearing that Guan Yu and Nan Ye were here, Liu Yan led dozens of horses out of Guo Xiangying.

Guan Yu passed all the way and summed up some rules. But at any small level, they basically don't dare to stop Guan Yu and Nan Ye, and they don't have the ability to stop their thousands of soldiers and horses, but every time they go to Daguan and Jiancheng, they often encounter famous generals. Therefore, Guan Yu didn't have any joy when he saw Liu Yan's departure, but he just bowed over and said, "Don't come here too well!" ”

Liu Yan also saw that Guan Yu had a cold attitude and knew that Guan Yu was wary of him. But he really didn't plan to stop Guan Yu, because Liu Yan was also self-aware, knowing that he couldn't stop Guan Yu and Nan Ye, so he returned the courtesy: "With General Lao worried, everything is fine with Yan." I don't know where General Guan and the national teacher want to go? ”

Guan Yu saw that Liu Yan asked knowingly, and said more carefully: "I resigned as prime minister and went to find my brother." The national teacher and the military horses behind him are all escorted by the prime minister. ”

Liu Yan said: "Uncle Liu Huang is in Yuan's place, and the Yuan family is the prime minister's enemy, how can the prime minister be willing to let the general go?" ”

Guan Yu said: "In the past, I voted for the prime minister, and when I learned the whereabouts of my brother, I went to go to the same place, and the national teacher is the witness, if you don't believe it, you can ask the national teacher." ”

Liu Yan glanced at Nan Ye and said, "How can I not believe General Guan's words?" What's more, the national teacher is here. It's just that the Yellow River crossing pass is guarded by Xiahou Yuan's general Qin Qi, and the general is afraid that he will not be allowed to cross the river. ”

Guan Yu heard that Liu Yan did not mean to stop him, but reminded himself that the pass ahead was in danger, and his face looked a little better: "How about Taishou find some boats to help me cross the river?" ”

Liu Yan revealed that the information of the guards in front of him also knew that he couldn't stop Guan Yu and Nan Ye, so he sold a favor to the two. But if you really want him to help the two cross the river, he won't dare, and letting the two pass the customs is at most considered dereliction of duty, but if you want to help the two cross the river, you will be suspected of being an enemy. So Liu Yan said: "Although there are ships, they don't dare to give lightly. Otherwise, General Xiahou will know about it, and he will definitely sin me, and please ask General Guan and the national teacher not to embarrass the last general. ”

Guan Yu and Nan Ye also encountered several ferries along the way, but they failed to find a boat to cross the river because they broke through the pass. Now Liu Yan's reluctance to provide ships to everyone is also expected by Guan Yu. So he said to Liu Yan: "Since you don't want to help me wait to cross the river, then get out of the way, and I'll go to Qin Qi to ask for a boat." ”

When Liu Yan heard this, he went to the side of the road, and Guan Yu urged the men and horses to move forward, and soon arrived at the crossing of the Yellow River. As Liu Yan said, Qin Qi, who was guarding the ferry, didn't want to let Guan Yu and his party go over, so he led a thousand soldiers and horses to open the formation and block the way.

Qin Qi stepped out and asked, "Who is coming?" Where do you want to go? ”

Guan Yu patted his horse and said: "I am Guan Yu, the Marquis of Hanshou Pavilion, and I want to go to Hebei to find my brother Uncle Liu Huang, so I have come to borrow the ferry, and I also ask General Qin to be accommodating." ”

Qin Qi knew that Guan Yu had passed all the way, and still asked, "Where is the Prime Minister's official document?" ”

Guan Yu was already annoyed by being asked about the official document all the way, and replied: "I have already resigned as prime minister without moderation, and there is no official document!" ”

Qin Qi sneered: "I was ordered by General Xiahou to guard the pass, if you don't have an official document, you won't be able to fly over even if you have wings!" ”

Guan Yu said angrily: "Do you know that I killed the interceptor on the road? ”

Qin Qi no longer pretended to be garlic at this time, and said directly: "You only killed an unknown general, dare to kill me?" ”
