Chapter 21 Luyang Pass

On June 17, three years.

In the area of Luyang Pass, the sky is clear and the sky is blue.

Fang Xing and his five hundred tooth troops have been stationed near here for three days.

Li Yu once confessed that he would wait until June 26, and if Zhang Jun didn't come, he wouldn't wait, and went back directly to defend Nanyang.

If Zhang Jun comes, he will escort him back to Nanyang.

Therefore, Fang Xing had already sent someone to Guancheng to notify Guan Ling, as soon as Zhang Jun came, he would notify them.

Luyang Pass is the middle pass, the order of one person, is the ninth grade, the palm of the ban on the end of the tour, the investigation of tรจ, where pedestrians, cars and horses in and out, according to the festival of the exchange; Cheng is a person, from the nine products, Cheng is in charge of paying things, sentence auditing, supervising printing, provincial banknotes, and passing judgments; One person is recorded, two people are in the house, two people are in history, four people are in charge of the warden, and the warden is in charge of the pheasant (patrolling the city) and miscellaneous.

Now Luyang Pass is guarded by Zhang Quanyi's people in Luoyang.

Guan Ling is the nephew of the Zhang family, but he is easy to speak.

They also knew that King Nanyang De was going to marry and that the matchmaker was going to come from here.

Speaking of Zhang Quanyi's family in Luoyang, I really have to talk about it.

Back then, Zhang Quanyi was Li Hanzhi's friend of "carving his arms for an alliance and sharing weal and woe forever", and he was also his superior, and he often asked Zhang Quanyi for military rations and silk, and Zhang Quanyi really couldn't stand it too many times. He took advantage of Li Hanzhi's troops to attack Jin and Jiangzhou in Hedong, sent troops to attack Heyang, and appointed himself as the envoy of Heyang.

Li Hanzhi defected to Li Keyong, and asked for 30,000 reinforcements to attack Heyang, besieged for a long time, and the city was exhausted.

Zhang Quanyi is still serving as Henan Yin.

Zhang Quanyi thanked him for saving his life and was loyal to Zhu Quanzhong.

Zhang Quanyi has unique insights in administrative management and economic development.

Since he started to take care of Luoyang a few years ago, he has recruited displaced people, reclaimed wasteland, planted grain, and developed the economy.

After he received instructions to repair the Luoyang Palace, he continued to build it for two years, and now Luoyang has been renovated by him.

This Luyang Pass is the main road for Luoyang to go south to Jingxiang, and it must be in his own hands, so he sent his nephew Zhang Huai to guard it with 500 town soldiers.

Zhang Huai heard that King De was married, and the matchmaker was Zhang Jun, so he sent an urgent report to Luoyang overnight. Uncle Zhang Quanyi explained to him that anyone on the list was not allowed to pass.

And Zhang Jun is on the list.

Li Yu and Fang Xing didn't know these things.

Li Yu just asked Fang Xing to pick up Zhang Jun, but he didn't expect that Zhang Quanyi would start monitoring Zhang Jun now.

The prince is about to get married, why hasn't this matchmaker come yet?

Fang Xing looked at Guancheng in the distance, not very relieved.

He was thinking that since King De explained so, Zhang Jun would definitely be able to come. There has been no movement so far, I'm afraid something has happened.

"Huozi, you send someone to see, what's going on?"

"Okay, brother, don't worry."

Although Fang Liang and Fang Xing are now at the same level, but this time he came out with Fang Xing leading the team, and he could only cooperate, so he had to listen to his cousin's orders.

He pulled a few of his scouts and muttered in their ears, and they nodded vigorously, and then ran away.

An hour later, a skinny scout came running.

"Report, General. There is a case. โ€

This voice startled Fang Xing Fang Liang, who was chatting together.

"What's the situation?"

Fang Xing asked with a glare.

"Well, just now we saw that there were several carriages in front of the Guan, and someone with the common name was Luoyang Zhang Jun, who was invited into the Guancheng by them, but they never let them go."

Hiss~~~~

Fang Xing frowned, Fang Liang's eyes rolled, and said, "Big brother, do you want to send someone to ask?" โ€

"It's fine."

Fang Xing called a team over, "Go and ask if Zhang Jun is here, let him go as soon as he comes." โ€

"Yes."

The team was running to Guancheng with two of his men.

At this time, the whole city of Guancheng was mobilized, and Zhang Jun's father and son and the servants were all invited into the Guanling Mansion, and they were entertained with good tea and snacks, not to mention the matter of letting them out of the customs.

Zhang's father and son glanced at each other, and their hearts sank, didn't Zhang Quanyi want them to pass?!

The four warsmen on the city guarded the city wall with the town soldiers, and kept a close eye on the Nanyang Ya army under the city.

"Liu Dianshi, is Lord Zhang Jun here?"

The tooth army was looking up at Liu Dianshi in the city.

"Ahem, what Zhang Jun, I didn't see it."

The soldiers of Guanshang, who usually giggle with the Nanyang Ya Army, also have a straight face, and they all look fully armed, no matter how they look at it, they don't look like people who are fine.

"If you come, let it go, my prince is still waiting!"

The team said patiently.

"Hehe, Wang Teamzheng, you better go back, if Lord Zhang Jun comes, we will naturally let him go."

Team Wang was looking at the town soldiers in Guancheng, and then at Liu Dianshi, who was perfunctory to himself, he turned around and ran back to the barracks.

"General, I think there's a problem."

"What's the problem."

"You see, now the whole city is fully armed and heavily guarded, why do they want to do this?"

"Combined with the information from the scout just now, I think Master Zhang Jun must have arrived and been detained by them in Guancheng."

"Well, you're right."

Fang Xing frowned.

"! What do these bastards want to do? Withholding the matchmaker of the prince in front of us is a provocation! Fuck it! โ€

Huozi Fang Liang jumped three feet high.

Fang Xing's face was also gloomy, he took out a pen and paper, brushed a few strokes and wrote a note.

"Come on, go to Nanyang to report to the prince, just say that Luyang Pass may have detained Lord Zhang, and we are ready to tackle the problem!"

"Yes."

A knight flew on his horse and ran away in a puff of smoke.

Looking at Guancheng not far away, Fang Xing said: "Huozi, your people closely monitor Guancheng's every move, let's do it at night." โ€

Since the last time he was in Bowangpo, Li Yu personally led the team to launch a thunderous blow, which brought out the hearts of these people.

Who are we? It's Wuqu Xingjun's soldiers, can you still be afraid of you birdmen?!

He and Fang Liang muttered for a while, and then the whole camp should eat and drink, and they also drank and punched, and the sound shook the four fields.

The warden and the town soldiers on the city pass saw that the Nanyang Ya army not far away was lazy like this, and they gradually let down their vigilance, talking and laughing.

At noon, the sun was blazing, and the tooth soldiers under the city went to take a nap, and the town soldiers on the city couldn't wear the armor.

How do you wear this? The sun is too hot, and I have already been sweating.

Take it off.

Zhang Huai also relaxed his vigilance and asked everyone to be on duty in shifts, and those who had no tasks should go back to the camp to rest.

Those who stayed behind to defend the city secretly cursed their bad luck, rested against the wall, and some simply hid in the shade, who would go to see what was going on below the city.

However, for a whole day, the tooth army in Nanyang below did not react.

In the evening, Zhang Huai served wine and food to Zhang's father and son, and comforted him with kind words, saying that there were mountain bandits nearby, and he was afraid that he would not be able to go out until three days later, and he would rest in the city first.

Zhang Jun knew that they were under house arrest, and they had no choice but to stay here.

In the Nanyangya military camp under the city, it was in full swing, and the fragrance of wine and meat wafted to the city.

That night, several torches were lit on the city, and there were lanterns dotted with stars, and the town soldiers on duty were shaking in the shadows.

The person on duty swallowed his saliva and scolded: "Damn, these Nanyang soldiers are treated so well, they have wine and meat, how can they be like us, they were sent to this place where birds don't!" โ€

"Hehe, you're wrong, we've got a lot of bird here!"

"Hey,, too!"

In the darkness, dozens of pairs of eyes were staring at them viciously, and these people were still unaware.

The sound of the beating of the watch in the city had sounded a few times, and it was already midnight.

"Ah~ha~~ Lao Wang, you look at it, I'll sleep for a while."

"Sleep, don't let the pawn find out."

"I can't find it, they've already slept with their in their arms."

The ugly time has passed, and the time has come.

There was a lot of snoring in the city.

At this time, it was three or four o'clock in the second half of the night, when the drowsiness was thick.

"Okay, wake up, act."

On the hillside on the side of Luyang Pass, a group of people in light clothes and short blades woke up from sleep.

They were dressed in black, with black scarves on their faces, and no armor, and they stood up quietly.

The leader was armed with a bow and arrow, and led the group to touch it.

By the faint halo of the early morning, he bent his bow and shot an arrow at the sleeping man behind the battlement.

Burst~

Belch~~

The arrow went deep into his throat and sent the man to hell in his sleep.

This person is none other than Fang Xing.

He fired a dozen arrows to kill the outposts lurking nearby.

With a wave of their hand, the crowd climbed into the battlements.

After entering, Fang Xing led people straight to the gate under the city, while the other dozen or so people touched the city one by one, and wiped their necks when they touched one.

At the gate, there was a group of town soldiers on duty, but they slept very dead one by one, and no one was really on duty.

Fang Xing shot the few town soldiers closest to the gate, and the others were executed by the Ya army who followed.

In the end, it was a recruit, and he didn't know how to start, and one of them actually slashed at the arm of the town soldier, and the town soldier howled miserably, startling Fang Xing.

Broken, exposed!

"Quick, open and close the door."

This gate is lifted by a winch, and it is not a wooden door on the left and right, but an iron gate on the top and bottom.

The tooth army began to turn the winch with all hands and feet, and the iron door creaked and slowly rose.

Although the unlucky townsman was hacked to death, he also alarmed the defenders in the pass.

There was a burst of people in the city shouting and neighing, chickens and dogs jumping, and groups of disheveled town soldiers ran out of the barracks, not knowing what was going on.

The Nanyang Ya army at the head of the city shook the torches outside the city, which was a signal, meaning that they had succeeded. Then they hurried down to the city, and they wanted to block the reinforcements.

Soon, the guards figured out that the pass had been taken away.

The first time they wanted to take it back was not to think about it, but to run away.

Who knows how many people came?!

There are only 500 of them, and it is strange that they can hold it.

Zhang Huai was awakened by the panic shouts outside, and he didn't have time to get dressed, so the soldiers around him ran in and pulled him to run.

The gate was already halfway open, Fang Liang took the rest of the Nanyang Ya Army and climbed in from under the rising gate, he was in a hurry to support the eldest brother.

As a result, when I came in, the gate on the opposite side had already been opened by the other party, and those town soldiers were fleeing in a panic.

"Chase!"

Here, the Nanyang Ya Army was fully armed and chasing behind, and the guards were running blindly in a disorderly manner.

Zhang Huai, under the escort of his own soldiers, ran away as soon as possible.

Fang Liang led people to chase for a while, capturing more than 200 town soldiers, and the others were either killed or fled. Where can I find this loose sheep? And the sky will be bright before dawn, and it is dark and you can't see clearly, so it's good to catch two hundred.

He dispersed the scouts outside, and returned with his captives.

In the gate, Fang Xing had already found Zhang Jun's father and son.

They weren't abused, they just lost their freedom.

As soon as the sky dawned, Fang Xing took a large number of captured weapons and armor and four hundred tooth troops to escort Zhang Jun and his son back to Nanyang, while Fang Liang took a hundred men and two hundred prisoners to guard the city.

Fang Xing didn't know what to do with this gate for a while, so let Fang Liang guard it first.

Fortunately, except for Guan Ling, the other officials were still there, and Fang Xing asked them to continue to be on duty, and everything was up to Fang Liang for the time being.

At this moment, Fang Xing knew that Zhang Huai had a list of people who were prohibited from leaving the customs.
