Chapter 803: Bandits
Yang Xiu looked back at Sun Quan's carriage and ordered the soldiers to ask Sun Quan to come down and rest for a while. For more up-to-date chapters, visit: ะจะฉะฉ.(7)(9)XS.ัะะ.
Along the way, Sun Quan sat in the carriage, and his back hurt.
The soldier went to ask for someone, but Sun Quan refused.
Yang Xiu shook his head and smiled, and then stopped paying attention to Sun Quan.
He had done his best to give Sun Quan face, but Sun Quan was unwilling, so it was no wonder that he was.
Xu Chu came to Yang Xiu's side and said, "Master Yang, I looked at the map, and if I walked twenty miles further, there was a mountain forest. We had to walk through the mountains and forests before we could continue on to Yingchuan County. โ
"It's just that according to the spies' report, there may be bandits hiding in the mountains and forests. โ
"When the time comes, you stay with Sun Quan's carriage, don't be scattered by bandits. โ
"Of course, it's best not to meet bandits. โ
"It's just that in this situation, it's not clear whether there are bandits for the time being, and I will say hello to Master Yang first. โ
In Xu Chu's eyes, there was a trace of worry.
The bandits in the mountains and forests are probably not easy to match.
After Yang Xiu heard this, his brows furrowed. He pondered for a moment, and said, "General Xu, I have repeatedly traveled from Yecheng to Xiangyang, Jingzhou, and have also passed through Chenliu County. โ
"I haven't encountered bandits before. โ
"How come this time, suddenly there are bandits. โ
"Your suspicions, I'm afraid, aren't true. โ
Yang Xiu's face showed a questioning look, but he was smart after all, and his mind turned, and he suddenly said: "General Xu, you mean that the bandits in the mountains twenty miles ahead are not real bandits. โ
Xu Chu said: "Yes!"
Yang Xiu said in a deep voice: "In this way, it is likely that Liu Xiu sent someone to save Sun Quan." โ
Xu Chu said: "It's very likely. โ
Chenliu County was under the rule of Cao Cao, and it was the place where Cao Cao' once operated, and the bandits were eliminated and the political situation was stable.
In such a situation, there can be no bandits all of a sudden.
Therefore, Xu Chu has a judgment.
Yang Xiu thought about it carefully and said, "General Xu, can we take a detour?"
Regarding Liu Xiu's actions, Yang Xiu was extremely jealous.
He saw Liu Xiu in Chu State many times, but he couldn't get any benefits, and he knew how powerful Liu Xiu was.
Xu Chu sneered: "Master Yang, this general has eight hundred tigers and leopards under his command, why are you afraid of Liu Xiu's people? What can such a thief do?"
"Besides, we'll take a detour here, and they'll get the news right away. โ
"The soldiers of the other side will also follow them to other places and pretend to be bandits. โ
"In short, it is very difficult to avoid Liu Xiu. โ
Xu Chu clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "Master Yang, this time, I also want to fight with Liu Xiu's people." Eight hundred tigers and leopards are riding to see what 'yin' tricks he can play. โ
After Yang Xiu heard this, the expression on his face fell into thought.
Xu Chu was confident and slow, but Yang Xiu didn't think so, he was worried that the situation would get out of control.
Sun Quan's existence is related to the life and death of Zhang Liao and Xun You, and there is no room for any changes.
Otherwise, there will be a difference between Zhang Liao and Xun You.
Yang Xiu didn't think about what to do for the time being, so he didn't refute Xu Chu, so he did it for the time being.
It didn't take long, and the meal was ready.
Bowls of rice came out of the pot, and soldiers ate their meals in large gulps.
Yang Xiu tastes the same as chewing wax, and it tastes no good.
In his heart, he was thinking about Sun Quan.
If Sun Quan is not delivered safely, Zhang Liao and Xun You will be in danger.
Yang Xiu ate with a solemn expression, and didn't eat a few bites, so he didn't eat any more.
Xu Chu looked at it in his eyes and shook his head, but he didn't say much. Yang Xiu has Yang Xiu's concerns, but Xu Chu has Xu Chu's self-confidence.
The tigers and leopards under his command are all 'elite'.
In the face of a group of people pretending to be bandits, he was not afraid at all.
As we were about to set off, suddenly, dark clouds gathered in the sky and it began to rain heavily.
Bean-sized rain fell and quickly wet the ground.
The rain was spilling and the ground was wet.
In such a situation, the cavalry was not conducive to rushing.
Xu Chu sighed, then ordered the soldiers to take out their hats and robes, put them on their bodies, and began to look for a place to shelter from the rain.
Yang Xiu followed along.
Looking at the darker and more oppressive sky, Yang Xiu suddenly had an idea in his mind. He directly found Xu Chu and said excitedly: "General Xu, I have an idea below." โ
Xu Chu said: "What does Master Yang think?"
Yang Xiu is a negotiator after all.
Xu Chu is just an escort.
Therefore, even if Xu Chu can't see Yang Xiu being cautious, he has to respect Yang Xiu.
Yang Xiu said: "Now that it is raining heavily, we have just a reason to stagnate. โ
"Next, my plan is to do this,......"
โ......โ
Such an arrangement not only ensures Sun Quan's safety, but also ensures that General Xu can show his abilities, which can be described as the best of both worlds. This time to exchange Xun You and Zhang Liao is something that cannot be lost. โ
"So, you can't be too careful. โ
"That's what I'm going to do. โ
"What does General Xu think?"
Yang Xiu's eyes showed a look of expectation.
Although it was expectation, in fact, Yang Xiu's eyes had faintly made a decision, and his eyes were quite firm.
The rest was as he had planned.
After listening to this, Xu Chu said: "Is it worth 'making' such a momentum? โ
Regarding Yang Xiu's plan, Xu Chu also felt that it was okay.
It's just that Yang Xiu's solemnity made Xu Chu feel that he took it too seriously.
Yang Xiu shook his head and chuckled: "General Xu, don't you know the status of Xun You and Zhang Liao in the king's heart?
"This time, we can only succeed and not fail. โ
"Once defeated, the losses of the Wei state are immeasurable, and the king of Wei will also be hit. โ
"So I can't be too cautious. โ
Yang Xiu looked at Xu Chu and said, "This time, the matter is settled." โ
After hearing this, Xu Chu also nodded and said, "That's it, I'll listen to you." โ
"Hmm!"
Yang Xiu's face also 'revealed' a smile.
As long as Xu Chu is willing to cooperate, Yang Xiu is sure that he will be able to arrive in Yingchuan County safely.
Once you enter Yingchuan County, you will be greeted by troops stationed in Yingchuan County.
When the time comes, he will not be afraid of Liu Xiu's 'tricks'.
The rain kept falling, and the pace of the army slowed down.
Finding a place to take shelter from the rain, all the soldiers hid from the rain and did not continue on their way.
Sun Quan was still sitting in the carriage, and his expression was not 'wave'.
Today's Sun Quan is quite uncomfortable.
He didn't want to go south, he didn't want to enter Xiangyang, because he didn't want to be Liu Xiu's prisoner. He would rather be Cao Cao's subordinate prisoner than become Liu Xiu's subordinate prisoner.
But now, Sun Quan has fallen to this point.
Thinking of going south to Xiangyang, Sun Quan's heart was 'messy'.
While sheltering from the rain, Yang Xiu came to Sun Quan's side, and after saying a word, Yang Xiu left.
Sun Quan heard it in his ears, and he had to sigh in his heart.
Little by little, time passed.
After dark, the clouds dissipate.
There were bright stars and a bright moon in the sky.
The moon is like a disk, and the stars are shining.
With such a scene, tomorrow will be another 'bright' sunny day.
Xu Chu led the army, and was still resting at night, and waited until the next morning, when the army set off and continued in the direction of Yingchuan County.
And the army was hurrying, and the mountains and forests twenty miles away were getting closer and closer.
This mountain forest is called a wild boar forest.
