At sunset, by a galloping river, a team of more than 100 cavalry is galloping on horseback, more than 100 cavalry are tall and strong, with bright clothes and armor, and their faces are full of bravery, and they are elite divisions at a glance.

The leader was a young general, the surface of the armor was covered with dark black stains, which seemed to be bloodstains, and only some white light flashed under the reflection of the setting sun could reflect the color of the armor itself.

And surrounded by the more than 100 elite cavalry in the middle is a man in his twenties, who is quite strong, a head taller than the nearby knights, and looks out of the crowd. He was dressed in a fish-scale chain mail, with a dark lacquered helmet on his head, and on both sides of the helmet, there were two movable pieces of steel, which colluded with each other to become a visor, covering his entire face, leaving only a gap two fingers wide in the eye area, which was extremely mysterious.

However, under this mysterious mask, there is a bitter and hateful face, and the ruddy face is full of decay words.

Liu Xin regretted it very much, really regretted it, he thought that the deletion of more than a dozen novels on his phone the day before the crossing was the most regrettable thing he had ever done in his previous life, but today, he encountered an even more regretful thing.

Liu Xin is a traverser, before the crossing was an assembly line worker, in his spare time, he likes to read some novels to pass the time, mainly to read history and fanfiction skin, just one day, after emptying the pile of more than a dozen historical texts in the mobile phone, he crossed over.

He didn't know the specific process of crossing very well, anyway, he didn't buy fake jade at a roadside stall or save the little girl from being hit by a car, let alone being struck by lightning, but after waking up, he found that he had arrived in another world.

I don't know if it's because of the golden finger or because he speaks Chinese all over time and space, when he woke up, he found that he could understand what people in this world said, and then after some inquiry, he knew where he was now - Zhuo County, the place where the story of Taoyuan's Three Knots took place, a place where the Three Kingdoms fans are full of thunder, can be regarded as the best birthplace for those who wear the Three Kingdoms novels.

And the time, which is also very coincidental, is the Han Dynasty, the year name is Guanghe, and Liu Xin, the era name before the Tang Dynasty, remembers this one, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when the Romance of the Three Kingdoms began.

Knowing the time he was in, Liu Xin immediately set the main task of dominating the world for himself, and then began to inquire about Zhang Fei, but he didn't expect that there was really such a person, so he immediately went to the door, and lied that he heard about Zhang Feiyi Bo Yuntian of Zhuo County, and came to visit.

During the banquet, Liu Xin took off the plastic chili pepper on the key ring as a decoration, saying that it was East China Sea red jade, half sold and half given to Zhang Fei, in exchange for his future living expenses, but also brushed Zhang Fei's favor.

Then it took another half a year, and the broad knowledge of the people of the world successfully brushed Zhang Fei's reputation to worship, and he came to a second conclusion. Relying on Zhang Fei's funding, Liu Xin opened a paper mill in Zhuo County, began to accumulate original capital, and a year later went to Luoyang, using the money earned from selling paper and the secret technique of coarse salt refining to buy the position of the county magistrate of Muping County, Donglai County (near present-day Yantai) from Zhang Rang, and since then he has officially had a piece of land.

After taking Zhang Fei to take office, Liu Xin took the way of pulling a piece to deal with the local family, and annexed their land, and then wantonly built ships and fished, built water conservancy, farmed, trained soldiers, and climbed science and technology trees.

During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Liu Xin had extremely strict control over the territory, and because he used sea fish to make up for the lack of food, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and there was no foundation of the Yellow Turban Army, plus it was located on a remote coast, so there was no riot under his rule. However, in order not to make himself too conspicuous in the context of the chaos in the north, he swept away the family under his rule under the guise of the Yellow Turban Army, and further strengthened his rule over the territory.

By the eve of the princes' discussion of Dong, Liu Xin already had 5,000 infantry, 1,000 cavalry, 2,000 naval troops, 10 warships, more than 1,000 large and small fishing boats, a total of 8,000 regular troops, 13,000 militiamen, 6,000 bandits and bandits, and 50,000 reserves.

When the princes were discussing Dong, Liu Xin took a thousand cavalry, 4,000 infantry, and 2,000 militia with a total of 7,000 troops to participate in the coalition army, and showed his face, and after hitting Luoyang, he withdrew to Donglai County, and then expanded vigorously, because he had already prepared for expansion, and soon occupied the entire Qingzhou.

After gradually consolidating the territory, he remembered that there was still Huang Zhong in Jingzhou, a military general in the field, so he had the heart to recruit, so he personally took three hundred elite cavalry and the captain of the personal army Zhao Yun to Changsha to recruit Huang Zhong through several states, and went to Changsha Youxian to help Huang Zhong solve his son's illness.

However, when passing through Yuan Shu's territory, his whereabouts were leaked, and Yuan Shu, who had a holiday with Liu Xin when the princes were discussing Dong, brought 5,000 men and horses to block him, relying on the mobility and speed of the cavalry, although Liu Xin successfully escaped from the encirclement, he also lost half of his manpower.

Fleeing to Yingshui, when resting in a small county town, he saw a beautiful woman on the road to bury her father, and a gentleman came to tease, and Liu Xin, who did not want to see flowers inserted into the cow dung, intervened a hand, and then had a dispute with the gentleman, and finally the two parties fought directly, and the result was naturally needless to say, the servant under the gentleman was the opponent of Liu Xin's elite soldiers, and was soon killed and defeated, and the gentleman was also slashed in the chaos, I don't know if the blood was drained or he didn't breathe, and he died directly, but this thing is not over yet, it is the law that the small ones come out of the old ones.

That gentleman is the only son of the local county guard, and his father immediately ordered the army and horses to take revenge after hearing the bad news, and Liu Xin and others were still in that small county town to take care of his father's funeral for the beautiful woman, completely unaware that there was a county guard who had just experienced the pain of losing a child with two thousand regular troops to find them to take revenge.

Although Liu Xin in the city did not know that these people were here to seek revenge, he knew that he must not be trapped in such a small county town, so he immediately grabbed a city gate and escaped before the other party closed the siege, but the pursuers were in hot pursuit, and finally fled to Yingshui, because there was no boat to cross the river, and the group had to go along the Yingshui to find the ferry.

However, until now, Liu Xin's department, which is tired of people and horses, has not found a boat, not even a raft.

"Oh my God, what did Lao Tzu smoke in the first place before he decided to go to Jingzhou to recruit Huang Zhong in person, TM's that is Jingzhou, a few states separated from Qingzhou." Liu Xin regretted it very much, he had never regretted it so much in his life, he really couldn't understand why he, who had always been cautious, would make such a decision to die that day.

Just when Liu Xin regretted it, a white cooking smoke loomed in the sky in the distance, and Zhao Yun, who was originally in front of the team, arrived at his side at some point: "Lord, I found a village in front." ”

"Is there a boat?" Frustrated, Liu Xin asked without raising his head.

"No boats were found near the river."

"If not, we continued to walk forward, and we walked all the way along the river, and the traces on the road were obvious, and as soon as we stopped, we caught up with the pursuers." Liu Xin said without hesitation, now that he is in the enemy territory, he may be surrounded as soon as he stops.

"But my lord, although the brothers can still hold it now, the horse can't hold it, and if you run this war horse again, it will be useless." Zhao Yun persuaded that the war horse is a very delicate animal, and it is necessary to rest when carrying people for a while, and when the cavalry goes out, it is generally replaced by one person and two horses, and when the expedition is one, three horses or even four horses.

"Then rest for a while!" Liu Xin knew that if they wanted to successfully escape from the encirclement, they had to rely on the remaining war horses, and if the horses ran away, they would have to go into the mountains to become savages.

Soon, the group arrived at the outside of the village where the smoke came out, this village was some distance from the Yellow River, outside the village was a continuous rice field, at this time the autumn harvest had passed, there was only some rice stubble left in the rice field, and several old people who looked like village chiefs were standing in the rice field at the entrance of the village, kneeling to greet them.

But Liu Xin's eyes at this time were not on these people, but on a layer of dirt outside the village and on the mountain behind the village.

As a time-traveler, Liu Xin likes to do everything she needs, believing that her own technology is one aspect, and the material scarcity of this era is also an aspect. Therefore, after developing the habit of having enough food and clothing by himself, Liu Xin will first assess whether the place has the conditions for "suitable farming" before he arrives.

And this small village is very suitable for "farming", first of all, the autumn harvest has just been here, and there is grain in the village; Then there is an earthen fence outside the village, and the primary protection is there; Behind the village is the mountain, and there is a way out and raw materials for the raft; The village is not very far from the Yellow River, and the location is also advantageous.

Such a good place, if you miss it, it will be difficult to find it again, so Liu Xin immediately made a decision: "Stationed on the spot, cut down and row." ”

As soon as Liu Xin's order was given, more than 100 cavalry jumped from the entrance of the village into the earthen enclosure, and Liu Xin met with the villagers accompanied by several personal soldiers and Zhao Yun, and they needed their help in cutting wood.

Because later generations valued the habit of low-level laborers, Liu Xin was known as a virtuous person, and even spread to this village south of the Yellow River, and there were more than 100 cavalry as a deterrent by force, and soon gained a mass base.

Although the whole village was mobilized as a labor force, the productivity of this village is still very worrisome, because in the whole village, only the village chief has an ax at home, and the other two villagers each have a piece of metal that acts as a knife, and there is no other metal in the whole village, and Liu Xin is not worried about letting the soldiers hand over the hands to the villagers to cut down trees, not that they are worried that the villagers will resist after getting the knife, but that they will cut the knife badly, after all, Liu Xin's saber made by imitating the full moon scimitar in later generations is not used to cut hard objects.

Staying in this nameless village for two days, the villagers worked day and night to process the cut trees into a raft that was just enough to carry half of the people, of course, without horses, but one thing is gratifying is that when the first raft was made, Liu Xin sent a knight to cross the river with a horse on a raft, and returned to Qingzhou with news, so that Zhang Fei could bring the army to meet him.

Such messengers sent a total of twenty people, although ten horses and seven people sank when crossing the river, but with the remaining ten horses and thirteen knights, they should be able to send the news back to Qingzhou, because they don't have to run back to Qingzhou, they only need to go to some big cities to bring the news to the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce under Liu Xin's name, and then the Chamber of Commerce will naturally send the news back.

However, this also made Liu Xin understand that crossing the river with a homemade raft would cause at least one-third of the damage, and such a loss would be unacceptable for more than 100 of them, after all, it was not safe to cross the river, after all, there was still a Yanzhou between Qingzhou and Yingshui, which was Cao Cao's territory, and now that his whereabouts were leaked, Cao Cao might have prepared an army to block him as a "strong neighbor".

And they ran along the Yellow River for more than a day before and didn't see a boat, which is very revealing, either someone deliberately wanted him to not be able to cross the river, or someone was fighting by the Yellow River, and they collected all the ferries, no matter which one they were, it was not a good thing for him, more than 100 people.

Based on the above reasons, after the messenger crossed the river, Liu Xin had already made a plan to strictly guard against it, on the one hand, let people stand behind the earthen enclosure that had been tied up, and reinforce the earthen enclosure that could only prevent wild beasts from people, and on the other hand, let people use the grain in the village to make dry food, and also sent people into the mountains to explore the back road, so that it was convenient to escape into the mountains at any time.

Although he knew that he would not be able to hold this place, Liu Xin still preferred to stay here, after all, escaping into the mountains was equivalent to being cut off from the outside, the enemy could not find him, and Zhang Fei's receiving troops could not find him.

That night, Liu Xin was sleeping with the beautiful woman who sold herself to bury her father, but she suddenly remembered a knock outside the door: "Lord, urgent military situation." ”

Hearing these four words, Liu Xin suddenly sobered up, quickly got up and put on his clothes, pushed open the door, and saw Zhao Yunzheng standing outside with an anxious face: "Lord, the scout has come to report, and a large camp has been found fifty miles away, with about 3,000 foot soldiers. ”

"Three thousand! Do you see who it is? Liu Xin hurriedly asked.

"I don't know, the scout said that the night was dark, and he couldn't see the banner in the camp clearly."

As if thinking of something, Liu Xin asked, "How is their camp and is it arranged in a neat and orderly manner?" ”

It is very easy to judge the combat effectiveness of an army, that is, to look at their discipline, because the combat effectiveness of the army is reflected in the cooperation, the army that is forbidden by order must be an army with strong combat effectiveness, and the discipline of an army can be reflected in many aspects, camping is on the one hand, in this era, the army that can be set up in a good manner, the discipline must be good, and the combat effectiveness must be strong.

"This subordinate asked, and the scout said that the other party's camp tent was neat and orderly, and there were still rejected horses buried outside the camp, and there were patrols at night, so they didn't dare to approach." Zhao Yun replied.

"This force is certainly not the same wave that chased us before." Liu Xin judged: "Send the order down, let the soldiers deal with all the traces of our activities, and then hide them in the village, and the war horses are also brought with chews, don't make any noise, they may not be coming for us." ”

The other party was still fifty miles away, so there was no movement all night, Liu Xin'an slept peacefully all night, but the next day, something happened.

Liu Xin was not mistaken, that army did not come at him, but he ignored one thing, that is, the army of this era often eats on the spot, especially after the autumn harvest. At first, only a few scouts discovered the village, but did not find Liu Xin and others hiding in the village, about two hours after the scouts left, a team of people, about 50 people, came straight to the village, looking at this amount, it should be to collect grain.

However, when the group of people walked to the open space in front of the village entrance, Dubo, the only one in iron armor among the more than fifty people, suddenly stretched out his hand and motioned for the rest of the people to stop, and a person in leather armor next to him immediately asked, "Why do you want to stop?" ”

"When we arrived here, we didn't see the village elders come out to greet us, don't you think it's strange? And the village is too ......."

Before the word quiet could be spoken, a group of cavalry rushed out of the village, but Liu Xin knew that he couldn't hide it after discovering them, and ordered Zhao Yun to attack when they approached, and caught them off guard.

The well-armored personal guard cavalry faced ordinary foot soldiers, and the number was twice as large as the enemy, and the result was naturally needless to say, Liu Xin only paid the price of three dead and eleven wounded and ten horses to annihilate the enemy, but this is just the beginning, this is just a grain collection team, and there are at least 3,000 elite soldiers behind, relying on Liu Xin's more than 100 horsemen can not resist, can only run.

While the guards were cleaning the battlefield and dealing with the ten dead or wounded horses, Liu Xin went back to the inner room alone, the escape had just begun, and he had many things to think about.

However, at this moment, Liu Xin suddenly saw a white dot appear in the air next to him, and when he was about to call Zhao Yun outside the door to come in, the white dot that was originally only a finger thick quickly expanded to the size of a basin, and before he could react, a wooden stick tied into a horizontal L shape suddenly stretched out, and there was something Liu Xin was very familiar with on his head, because he also had one in his pocket.

It's a mobile phone, a white smartphone, the brand is Samsung, the camera function is on, and the pixels are not very good, but Liu Xin still saw his face that had darkened a lot from the screen.

At this moment, Liu Xin felt that the corners of her eyes were a little wet, why did she cry?
