Mi Huan nodded slightly, but his expression never relaxed, and he glanced out from time to time.

Huang Zu hurriedly came with two thousand soldiers, and suddenly there was a loud shout in front of him, only to see a big man standing in the middle of the road, holding a weapon he didn't recognize.

"Kill!" Huang Zu didn't hesitate.

After a continuous rush, the soldiers were slightly panting, but after all, there was only one person on the other side, and they all drew their swords and stepped forward.

Hundreds of black-clothed men suddenly sprang out on both sides of the road, armed with crossbow arrows, and the Jiangxia army suffered heavy losses and dozens of casualties.

Huang Zu said coldly: "The other party is only a few hundred, our army has two thousand, kill a man in black, and reward five thousand." ”

Under such a reward, the fear in the soldier's heart turned into liliang, the number of black-clothed people was small, although the surprise attack caused the death of nearly a hundred Jiangxia soldiers, but there was nothing to fear, five thousand dollars, enough for the soldiers to improve the poor life of their families.

A whistle sounded, the black-clothed people flashed into the jungle on both sides of the road, and in the middle of the toss, there was no trace, if it weren't for the soldiers lying on the ground wailing, Huang Zu even doubted whether these black-clothed people had appeared, a cold feeling surged into his heart, these people are definitely not ordinary people, well-trained, and the crossbow arrows used can be distinguished at a glance by elite soldiers, but the death of the only beloved son made him not have the slightest intention of retreating.

Huang Zu immediately rolled off his horse and stabbed a cavalryman behind Huang Zu with a crossbow arrow.

"Don't chase!" Huang Zu stopped, years of experience in marching and fighting, his heart calmed down a little, the man in black dared to be so arrogant, he must have something to rely on, and at this time, the sky will be dark, the other party is hiding in the forest, and there will inevitably be an ambush.

"There are no guts rats, they can only sneak attack, and they are not heroes." Huang Zu roared loudly.

The entire battlefield was extremely silent, how could there be a man in black, even the man in black who appeared arrogantly in front of the army before, disappeared.

Seeing that it didn't work, Huang Zu ordered the soldiers to keep firing arrows into the forest, intending to force the man in black out, but the arrows were almost shot with one breath, and there was no trace of the man in black.

Unknown death is the most terrible, a fight, their own side lost more than 100 people, just saw the figure of the other party, except for the crossbow arrows, not even the hair left, the two sides are a level.

Huang Zu also thought of retreating, but the pain of losing his beloved son made him like an angry lion, "Keep going!" "These men in black must be protecting the carriage, as long as they find the carriage, the men in black will not attack themselves.

The sound of birdsong suddenly sounded, and men in black appeared in the trees on both sides of the road, shot the crossbow arrows in their hands, and hid in the forest again.

Having lost dozens of more soldiers, Huang Zu was a little angry, but he couldn't find any trace of the other party, "Just get out of this forest." Huang Zu comforted himself.

"Order the soldiers of all units to be vigilant, and once they find the enemy, attack immediately!" Huang Zu forced himself to calm down and ordered.

The army marched vigilantly on the road, but soldiers kept missing in the rear, and the men in black were like deadly ghosts in the dim sky, constantly cutting the lives of one soldier after another.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, at such a slow marching speed, Huang Zu still did not get out of this deadly forest.

Zhang Xiu in the darkness seemed to be a little impatient, and two torches suddenly appeared in front of the army, which were extremely obvious in the dim sky.

In the woods, there was a sound of rustling, countless black-clothed people from both sides of the army killed, short-handed, the bows and arrows in the hands of Jiangxia soldiers lost their effect, often before the archers gave up the bows and arrows in their hands, they were faced with a lifeless three-edged military thorn, a touch of blood, a wail, the soldiers who fell to the ground painfully covered the neck that continued to flow blood, and kept struggling.

The man in black shot extremely sharply, all of them were killed with one move, and the killing method was clean and neat, and the place he passed was like a locust crossing the border, and it was difficult for the Jiangxia soldiers to resist at all.

There was such an enemy in the dark night, Huang Zu was afraid, when had he seen such a force in a hundred battles, hidden in the darkness.

"Well-trained, kills without blinking." Huang Zu suddenly thought of these two words, compared with the people in black, they are as strong as the Jiangdong Army, they look so cute, at least when the Jiangdong Army attacked the city, the soldiers could see that it was indeed a person, and these people in black, like ghosts in the night, would give you a moment from time to time, and if you accidentally fell behind, a triangular army thorn would silently climb your neck.

The Jiangxia army was immediately in chaos, and Huang Zu had a high prestige in the army, so he hurriedly organized soldiers to resist, surrounded them, and temporarily resisted the attack of the men in black.

Seeing this, the man in black slowly retreated, and no one dared to come forward to pursue.

The field was densely packed with the corpses of Jiangxia soldiers, no soldier saw a man in black fall, these people are not only strong in martial arts, but also have a superhuman dodge style, as if they know how you will attack, they will always dodge in advance, and occasionally one or two injured will also retreat quickly.

Huang Zu was secretly relieved when he saw the man in black retreating, but he didn't dare to mention the matter of the chasing carriage again, and cautiously led the army back the same way, leaving behind the corpses of hundreds of soldiers.

When Jia Rong heard the news reported by Zhang Xiu, he said indifferently: "Continue to hurry, my son is still waiting to return to Hangu Pass, I heard that the army of those princes has been very rampant recently, and they have suppressed the army of Hangu Pass." ”

Changsha is a medium-sized county government in Jingzhou, and the people under its rule can not live and work in peace and contentment, but there is no big danger to their lives, as long as they go home as soon as possible after dark, close the door of the house, and do not haunt the places where ordinary people dare not go, they can live in peace, although life is cold, compared with the people in other places who are hungry, it is still much better.

Jia Rong lived in an ordinary people's house that night, and there were only two elderly people in the house, and the house was slightly dilapidated.

Guests come from afar, the old man will usually treasure the good wine that is not willing to drink to take out the hospitality, no matter how poor the family is, for the guests, the host has never felt reluctant, this is also the simplicity of the ancients.

"Uncle is polite, the three of us came from afar, just because it was dark, I came to disturb me, and I ask the uncle to forgive me." Jia Rong said politely, but it was difficult for his body to move, so he could only half-lean on Mihuan's arms, which was quite ambiguous, and Mihuan looked very embarrassed in front of the two old men.

"It's okay, it's not easy to be alone when you go out, hurry up and eat some food and have a good night's rest." The old man said sincerely.

In front of such a simple people, Jia Rong felt extremely comfortable, seeing too much officialdom and deceit, the battlefield was bloody and bloody, and suddenly there was such a life, and he couldn't help but have some yearning in his heart, but then he thought of his wife and children who were far away in Chang'an, as well as a brother in the army, this kind of thinking was suppressed, and the step of entering the battlefield officialdom began, which means that he will never die, become a prince, choose a golden basin to wash his hands, it is impossible, such a life until you can stand at the top, the whole world, Until no one dares to provoke you.

When eating, the elderly are reluctant to pick up vegetables, which are usually reluctant to eat at home.

A dinner, the meal was very harmonious, Jia Rong chatted as if the old man's situation was clear one by one, the old man's two children all joined the army, in the Changsha army, it is said that he also became an official, which has also become the proud capital of the old man, in the poor countryside ordinary village, to be an official, in their eyes is an incomparably huge honor.

"Zhao Tu, Zhao Min, a very simple name." Jia Rong muttered softly.

The night in the village was exceptionally quiet, and Jia Rong lay in the carriage, quietly thinking about what happened in Chang'an and how to deal with it when he returned.

"Queue, queue, don't rush, adults will treat you." A soldier had just finished instructing Jia Rong to line up and said to the people with anxious faces.

Jia Rong looked carefully, and found that there were not only soldiers and civilians in the team, but even businessmen and officials, these people all obeyed the order, lined up to see a doctor, and did not dare to disobey in the slightest, there is such a rule in Changsha, but anyone who does not follow the order to see a doctor will not only be expelled from Changsha, but the divine doctor will no longer treat him, many people want to provoke this rule, and they are all driven out of Changsha.

The miracle doctor is Changsha Taishou Zhang Ji, every fifteenth day of the new year, the opening of the hall does not deal with official affairs, is responsible for treating people, people with poor families, does not charge any money, and is quite famous in Changsha, even if Liu Biao learns about this, he can only acquiesce.

Jia Rong said: "It seems that this Zhang Taishou is really an extraordinary person, let's line up with peace of mind." ”

"Childe, judging from the current situation, I'm afraid it won't be our turn until dark." Zhang Xiu said anxiously.

"As a general, no matter what the circumstances, you must not be impetuous, otherwise how to command the three armies." Jia Rong said.

Zhang Xiunuo said yes and stepped aside.

"You go and find out, if you can have the opportunity to meet this miracle doctor directly, you can't act recklessly, you are responsible for the collision with the miracle doctor, and you will not be spared." The stakes are very high, Zhang Xiu can't let the queue go on like this, Jia Rong's body doesn't recover for a day, Zhang Xiu can't be completely at ease.

Jia Rong shook his head lightly, secretly promising Zhang Xiu's approach, his limbs could not move, and his heart was also anxious, but in front of his subordinates, he naturally had to behave calmly.

I don't know what Zhang Xiu said, Zhang Ji, who was upright in the past, actually opened the back door and let Jia Rong go in directly for treatment.

It turned out that after Zhang Xiu saw Zhang Ji, he saluted and said: "Zhang Taishou, my son-in-law is in critical condition, and I hope that Lord Taishou can treat the disease in advance." ”

Zhang Ji immediately refused, he didn't know how many people he had touched, and he thought that he was from a good background, so he felt superior and bullied the people.

Zhang Xiu sneered: "Does Zhang Taishou have a family?" ”

Zhang Ji was naturally coerced by this kind of coercion in the past and ignored it.
