Chapter 24, Yanzhou rebel generals
If it is really a bandit who blocks the road and robs, there is no reason not to go down the mountain to loot, but just shoot arrows from a distance - Yes Xun is sure in his heart, this is 100% Qingzhou's plan, the purpose is just to stop himself, force himself to retreat, or detour.
Then, there are two possibilities for the true identity of the other party. First, the Qingzhou soldiers, pretending to be bandits, if that is the case, they will definitely not dare to hurt themselves and Zheng Xuan's lives, even if they rush forward, they may not dare to do it; The second is the local bandits who were bought by the Qingzhou faction, so either the bandits are stubborn and fearless, or the people from Qingzhou do not explain clearly, they may be ruthless and murder their own people. However, since it is a bandit who was bought by Qingzhou, he must not dare to hurt Qingzhou Zhizhong - by the way, he also killed the employer's people, do you still want to get paid again?
Therefore, Shi Xun was bold and marched forward with Wang Xiu, and deliberately lagged behind Wang Xiu. He didn't believe that at a distance of more than fifty paces, there were also marksmen among the bandits, and they had a firm grasp of the light to hit him, without accidentally injuring Wang Xiu. Sure enough, they took a few more steps forward, and had already crossed the place where the arrows were planted on the ground, but the mountain only shouted and shouted repeatedly, and sent a few arrows to them about ten steps to warn them, but they did not dare to shoot at people.
It was Xun's heart that had been in his throat, and he slowly put it down.
Every time the other party shouted "stop", Shi Xun asked Sun Wen to reply: "Quickly call the leader of you and the others to come out and talk!" Finally, there was a sudden shout on the hill on the right, shouting out some new tricks: "So-and-so is the leader, if you wait to move forward again, don't blame a certain spicy hand for being ruthless!" ”
Shixun raised his head, but he couldn't see the person shouting. Just by hearing the sound of horses' hooves on the mountain. He stopped for a moment. Wait quietly. I listened to the sound of hooves gradually moving away, high and low, probably looking for a way down the mountain. After about five or six minutes, the sound of horses' hooves sounded again in front of the road, and then three horsemen came from each other, about thirty paces away, and restrained their mounts.
Shi Xun raised his eyes and saw that the three horses were in the shape of a product. The last two horsemen rode horses, and at a glance they knew that Lu Dao was a pawn, so they could ignore it. The man on the horse, seven feet tall, with a short beard, full armor, a yellow cloak, and a horse lance in his hand—is this a bandit? Where in the world is there such a majestic bandit?
He saw that the temperament of the leader of this "bandit" was by no means a country grass coward, and he must have read the book for a few days. I also used to eat and drink spicy scenery; Look at the armor on his body, although it is not a treasure. But it's not cheap, let alone bandits, and even ordinary big families may not be able to afford it. Yes Xun was a little skeptical of his judgment just now - this is not like a bandit, there are seven points like an officer and soldier.
Could it really be that Qingzhou soldiers are pretending? That's better to talk.
He squinted at Wang Xiu, looked at Wang Xiu's eyes, and didn't know the leader of the "bandits". So he opened his mouth and asked: "A certain Shaofu is Xun, come and get a name!" The other party was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then hesitated to speak: "...... A certain is the king of this mountain, and his surname is Xi. ”
Shrimp, sigh? You still sigh! Shixun understood as soon as he heard it, this must be a fake name. But there is one thing, why did the other party report a fake name in front of him, could it be that although this person himself had not seen it, he suspected that if he reported his real name, he would be able to find out his details? Mockery? Xu Xi? Who's that?
Not busy thinking about these first, Shi Xun immediately raised his whip: "A certain edict from the Son of Heaven went to Gaomi to welcome Mr. Zheng Kangcheng to Xu, why did you block the way?" ”
Xi Xuan raised the horse lance in his hand: "Don't talk nonsense, Qing ...... If you can get three moves from a certain hand, let you wait, otherwise, hehe...... "Yes, Xun Xin said that you also know that it is difficult for the light to hit me without hurting Wang Xiu, so you personally came down the mountain, planning to urge the horse to come and capture me alive, right?" You didn't expect me to have a grandson by my side! But after thinking about it again, it's not right, if Sun Wen lets go of Wang Xiu, he will step forward and put it right, and Wang Xiu will run backwards, and he will fall into the range of the opponent's bow and arrow...... What can I do?
If you don't talk nonsense, you don't talk nonsense? I'm just going to make it clear to you! "No matter who buys you and others to block my way, if I can return to Yanzhou, I will definitely be rewarded twice!"
Xi Xuan pursed his mouth, ignored it, shook the horse lance, and was about to rush forward.
It was Xun Xin who said that it was an empty promise anyway, I would simply quote the price a little higher, anyway, there will be reimbursement from Boss Cao in the future - "I think you and others are not ordinary grass cowards, it is not under the command of Yuan Qingzhou, it must be the officers and soldiers who were scattered in the past, if you let me wait for the past, play the Son of Heaven, recruit An Ru and others, although the county guard can also lead to it!" ”
The 2,000 stone chips were thrown forward, and sure enough, the other party was a little vague, and then he stepped on the mount: "Are you true?" Shi Xun hurriedly patted his chest and assured that I was completely able to speak in front of the Son of Heaven, and I was still Cao Sikong's relative, since I agreed, I would never regret it. Wang Xiu was so anxious next to him that he shouted: "Hugh wants to listen to him, I ...... Qingzhou" He closed his mouth halfway through the call - not because Sun Wen suddenly pinched his ribs, but because he suddenly thought, did he want to shout that as long as these people are stopped, Qingzhou will be more rewarded? Wang Shuzhi wants face, and he also wants to save the face of his father-in-law Yuan Tan, there are some things that everyone understands in their hearts, and it is really inconvenient to shout directly.
Xi Xuan hesitated for a moment, suddenly gritted his teeth, and retwisted the long lance: "It's just that other families will do it, and the Cao family will not go!" ”
It was Xun Xin who said, hey, dare to love you and the Cao family! What does that mean...... Seeing that the other party had already urged the horse to come, Sun Wen over there also planned to let go of Wang Xiu and rush over to protect himself, but suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind!
"Why did General Xu do this? Cao Gong is magnanimous, and he will definitely not blame the past. ”
"Sigh and slip", the other party slammed his horse, and his face was cloudy: "You know me?!" ”
Previously, Shi Xun was talking to the other party, and he was turning his brain, what kind of characters have never met at the junction of Qing and Yan, but it is possible that he has heard the name, and the other party is afraid of being exposed by himself? Then he heard the other party say that he had a grudge against the Cao family, corresponding to the name of Xi Xu, and he immediately thought of it - it turned out to be this birdman!
There are two names recorded in the horns of the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and ordinary people (including Shixun's previous life) must have slipped past when they read it, and it is impossible to remember it at all. If it weren't for the fact that Xun returned to Cao in this life, and he was always wandering around in this place such as Qing, Xu, Yan, and Yu, he wouldn't have remembered it at all.
These two people, one Xu Xi and one Mao Hui, are both local heroes in Yanzhou, and later Shi Cao became a general. When Lü Bu entered Yan, Xu and Mao rebelled against Cao and defected to Lü, and fled after defeat. In the original history, they ran to vote for Zang Ba - the names of the two were recorded in "The Biography of Zang Ba", saying that Cao Cao asked Liu Bei to hand over Xu and Mao, and Liu Bei gave instructions to Zang Ba, but Zang Xuangao refused. Cao Cao respected Zang Ba quite much for this, so later Zang Ba surrendered to Cao, and Cao Cao pardoned Xu and Mao's crimes, and appointed both of them as county guards.
But on this timeline, Xu and Mao failed to vote for Zang Ba - because Xu and Yan Hezong, Zang Ba is equivalent to recognizing Cao Cao as the boss, where do they dare to throw themselves into the net. Of course, they can't vote for the Yuan family, because they don't know if the Yuan family, who is allied with Cao Cao, is willing to take them in, after all, they are just a small character, and the Yuan family will sell you if they say it.
Just like in the original history, Liu Bei even dared to take Lu Bu in, so there was no reason not to dare to take in Xu and Mao, but as soon as Cao Cao spoke, he also asked Zang Ba to tie up the two and dedicate them to Cao Cao - these two goods are too unfamous and useless, and it is not worth it to turn against Cao Cao for this little thing. Therefore, Zang Bashan adheres to the word "righteousness" and openly refuses, so that Cao Cao will not be angry but happy, so that he attaches more importance to Zang Xuangao.
Therefore, Xu Xi and Mao Hui had no choice but to wander around the borders of Qing, Yan, and Xu, robbing houses and houses, wanting to find a gap to break out of the encirclement, and went to the west to find Lu Bu. When Shi Xun passed through Juancheng this time, he heard Cao De talk about it, saying that those two thieves were going to stay in Qingzhou for a long time, and I couldn't do anything about them, but I returned to Yanzhou from time to time to rob, and I couldn't tolerate it. The two were much worse than their luck in the original history, especially Mao Hui, who was ambushed by Cao De and cut off his head. There was only one Xu Xi left, and he didn't dare to get closer to Yanzhou.
It's Xun Xin who said no wonder, even if I haven't talked to Cao De, I have followed Cao Cao in the past few years, and I have heard the names of the two of you, so you don't dare to tell the truth in front of me. But if you make up a fake name, you can make up a fake name, and you will only turn your name upside down, what is it called "Xi Xu", if it weren't for that, I might not have guessed that it was you. Unprofessional is unprofessional, you see I have applied for a fake name twice, one Yang Guo, one Yang Xiu, it has something to do with the word Xun? Who would have thought of it!
Seeing Xu Xi Lema now, Shi Xun knew that he had guessed correctly, and then pouted, raised his whip and pointed at the distance: "General Xu, you are so confused!" If Cao Gong learns about it afterwards, he will ask Qingzhou for your head, how will Qingzhou not allow it? It also happens to put this matter on your head, so as not to offend the Son of Heaven! Will it really be rewarded with you? Will you be allowed to join the Yuan family? He didn't know what price Yuan Tan offered to Xu Xi, but he estimated that it was nothing more than giving money and food, or directly co-opting.
Xu Xi listened to Shi Xun's words, and his eyes turned up, looking like he didn't want to accept it, but he had to accept it. I only heard Shixun continue: "This is a great opportunity in front of us, if you can safely escort me and Mr. Zheng Kangcheng back to Xu, and make a great contribution, you can ignore the past." A promise of 2,000 stones, never go back! "In the original history, Cao Cao later worshiped you as a county guard, but I just a little earlier, I don't believe that Cao Cao will refuse to agree.
When Xu Xi heard this, he couldn't help but hesitate, so he set his eyes on Wang Xiu. Shixun "Ha Luha" smiled: "There are Qing and other escorts, and the prince also happened to hand over his errand, bid farewell to Zheng Sinong, and returned to Linzi." (To be continued......)
