Zhang Chong quickly figured out what happened.

Previously, Zhang Dan had ordered Wuyan in the northern part of Wuhuan to send three tribal nobles to Lulongsai on the grounds of detaining protons.

Wu Yan understood that this was a tradition of the Han family, so he undoubtedly sent his three nephews, all of whom had grown up.

After these three Wuhuan nobles came to Lulongsai, they were quickly bought by Zhang Dan, and all three of them were willing to lead the Taishan army deep into the outside of the fortress as guides.

For a long time, the road from Lulongsai to Pinggang and then to Liucheng was in the hands of the Wuhuan people, and without the Wuhuan people, the Taishan army could not find a route at all.

Therefore, even if Wuyan in the Youbei Plain was unable to take refuge in Zhang Dan due to the oppression of Tadun, he still did not tell Zhang Dan about this route, in order to monopolize this trade route and benefit from both sides between the Han and the steppe people.

Of course, Zhang Dan can also coerce Wuyan and ask him to hand over this road to Liucheng. But doing so will inevitably expose the war intentions of the Taishan army against the Wuhuan people.

Even though Wu Yan estimated that he would be happy to lose his strength, Zhang Dan was still unwilling to take this risk. Who knows if that Wuyan will sell the Taishan army to gain the trust of Tatun?

That's why Zhang Dan has such a move to repair the plank road openly and secretly Chen Cang.

Moreover, Zhang Dan did not put all his hopes on the three guides, even if he placed the three separately in the first place, it would be difficult for them to collude.

Zhang Dan also intended to look for some Han Chinese who had been out of the fortress all year round in Youbeiping to see if they knew this route.

In this regard, the Hejian Zhen clan played a role, and they used the past business network to contact a person named Xing Hao in Hejian.

This person had been exiled to Xu Wushan to avoid chaos.

Xu Wushan is outside Xu Wusai, where a group of Hu Han exiles gathered, saying that they gathered in the mountains to avoid chaos, but in fact they were also self-contained, either people or bandits.

When Xing Hao was recommended to Zhang Dan, he said that when he was in Xu Wushan to avoid chaos, someone really knew about this road to Liucheng.

So, Zhang Dan hurriedly gave Xing Hao a hundred gold and asked him to go to Xu Wushan to find this person.

And now, Xing Hao has been gone for ten days and has not returned.

Zhang Dan estimated in his heart that this person either ran away or was robbed and killed on the way, so he didn't bother anymore, and planned to rely on these three Wuhuan guides to lead the way.

Until, in the early hours of this morning, the three Wuhuan guides were found dead indoors.

After Zhang Chong heard this, he realized the seriousness of the situation.

That is, no matter who killed these three Wuhuan guides, they must have already known what the role of these three people was, so it was obvious that most of the Taishan Army's intentions to attack the Wuhuan people had been exposed.

And next to him, Zhang Dan also means this.

Zhang Dan couldn't help but say:

"The murderer must not be alone, according to the analysis of the three guides, they were assassinated with short daggers almost at the same time, and there was not even a struggle in between. So the perpetrators must be many, and they are now lurking in Lulongse. ”

Zhang Chong rolled his eyes, looked at Zhang Dan, and couldn't help but scold:

"You have also led the army for many years, how could you make such a mistake? Is your right army a sieve, able to hide a group of spies? ”

Zhang Dan was stunned and didn't dare to say a word.

After that, Zhang Chong did not continue to accuse Zhang Dan, he also knew that this was the Taishan army that was now expanding too fiercely, and it absorbed a large number of Han soldiers after the Battle of Zhongrenting, which was inevitable.

After all, the Taishan army really didn't have the ability to do a detailed investigation of every surrendered soldier, so they could only rely on mutual identification.

But this method can only catch the big fish of the Han army, and it has no effect at all for those military officials who come from the grassroots but do not reveal the identity of the family.

So now Zhang Chong wants to think about how to solve this matter.

Now that the guide is dead, two problems are immediately exposed.

One is what to do on the road out of the jam, and the other is the exposure of the intention to get out of the jam.

The last question is okay, because thanks to Zhang Dan's timely response, the door was closed as soon as the murder was discovered, and with the strict entry and exit orders of the Taishan Army, those murderers had no chance to go out at all.

So most of the Wuhuan people in Liucheng should not know about it now. And as long as he can lead the army out of the fortress in time and go straight to Liucheng, it can still cause tactical suddenness.

But the question goes back to the beginning, that is, how to get out of the jam.

Don't look at the Taishan Army, there are also thousands of Wuhuan people accompanying the army, but these people are generally from the city, and they don't know how many generations have lived in the Saiwai, and they have long been cut off from the outside of the Saiwai.

So they are also the same as the Han people, with black eyes.

Things froze here, and in the end, Zhang Dan, who was at a loss, could only mutter:

"Your Majesty, Sene has prepared food, so let's eat some first."

Zhang Dan would clearly see a big blood blister on the corner of the king's mouth, and he didn't know if he was blown by the north wind or was anxious by this matter.

Thinking of this, Zhang Dan's guilt was even deeper, and a person as frank as him would also be tyrannical and secretly hate:

"Those thieves, don't let Naigong catch them, otherwise you will have to beg for death."

Zhang Chong looked at Zhang Dan's appearance, and knew that he might blame himself, and he didn't want to say anything more, so he could only pat Zhang Dan on the shoulder, ready to join him.

Just when Zhang Dan was about to enter the fortress with Zhang Chong, four halberd armor soldiers suddenly rushed out of the middle road in the plug, and they approached without saying a word.

Because Zhang Chong and Zhang Dan were chatting in private just now, the Hengzhuang generals were all around the periphery, and because they were just outside Lu Longsai, they were also a little out of vigilance.

So when the four halberd armorers came over, Cai Cheng outside scolded:

"Stop, which of you are from it?"

Until now, Cai did think that the four armor soldiers were from the right army.

But as soon as Cai Cheng finished speaking, the four armorers drew their crossbow arrows from under their cloaks, and they all aimed at Zhang Chong, who was patting Zhang Dan on the shoulder.

Cai Qu had already roared angrily when the four armor soldiers were sent down:

"Stand still."

Zhang Chong was also reminded by Cai Qu's tiger roar, and was looking back at this side.

Then Cai Qu pounced on the whole person, trying to block the arrow.

But it's a pity that the speed of the bow and crossbow is too fast, Cai Qu is a step slower, and four armor-piercing arrows grazed Cai Qu's cheek and shot out.

At this time, Cai did not dare to look behind at all.

Because of the concurrent reasons, the king did not wear his mirrored armor. Cai Qu didn't dare to look back, for fear that what he saw was the fall of the king, which would be more than the fall of the sky.

He could only vent all his anxiety and anger on the four armorers.

Cai Qu rubbed his body, hit a person's jaw with a single hook, and then grabbed a soldier and threw him out. The last kick knocked over a person who was drawing a knife, and carried the knife of the last person, and then Cai Qu threw himself on top of him, punching him in the cheek.

The fist that smashed straight to Cai Qu was full of blood, and the armorer's face collapsed, but Cai Qu didn't stop.

Until a familiar voice came from behind him:

"Ah Qo, everyone was killed by you, why don't you see if the other three are alive?"

Just this sentence made Cai Qu, an iron beast, and this ang man cry.

He turned his head tremblingly, and saw the king looking at him like this, laughing.

And just now, that is, where Cai Qu couldn't see, when the four crossbow arrows shot at the armorless Zhang Chong, the people present were also as worried as Cai Qu.

But what do they see?

Just when the four iron arrows were about to hit Zhang Chong, Zhang Chong pressed Zhang Dan with one hand, telling him not to pounce and block for himself, holding the scabbard in one hand, and then cutting off all four arrows with a horizontal swing.

Looking at the arrows falling from the ground, including Zhang Dan, they were all stunned.

And Zhang Chong didn't care about the consternation of the crowd, walked up to Cai Qu and pulled him up.

Then, Zhang Chong squatted on the ground again and woke up the first armorer who was hit in the jaw by Cai Qu.

As soon as the soldier fell into a baby-like sleep, he was woken up by Zhang Chong, and he was still in a daze, when he saw the main owner he was going to assassinate on this trip.

He was about to get up and draw his knife, when Zhang Chong pressed him to the ground with one hand.

Zhang Chong took off the man's epaulettes, glanced at it, and asked:

"It's called Yang Zhong? It's not my real name. ”

The armorer named Yang Zhong was pressed to the ground by the iron hand and struggled desperately, but the iron hand was still like Mount Tai pressing the top, holding him down.

He glanced at the inhuman in despair, spat out the bloody sand from his mouth, and cursed:

"Dog thief, if you have a kind, kill me, I'll kill you as a ghost!"

Zhang Chong glanced at this person unexpectedly and knew that this was the so-called dead man, and this kind of person couldn't ask.

So Zhang Chong first removed his chin, and then called Dong Zhao, who was in charge of internal guards, and ordered:

"These people should be the group of assassins who killed the guide, let's try them first."

Dong Zhao wiped the sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly dragged this Yang Zhong down with a few flying army internal guards.

Cai Qu's combo just now, and when Dong Zhao led people to clean up, the four were killed and injured at the moment.

Among them, the one who was thrown out by Cai Qu was killed by the neck, and the other one who died was the one who was beaten to death by Cai Qu, which was really unrecognizable, what a tragic word.

When Dong Zhao, who felt derelict in his duties, took the assassin down for interrogation, the frustrated professor who had been thinking deeply on the side suddenly said to Zhang Chong:

"Your Majesty, the behavior of these assassins is very strange."

Zhang Chong also nodded, and he could see it.

These four people are obviously dead soldiers, and if they want to assassinate Zhang Chong in the midst of ten thousand armies, what a crazy idea they must have. Regardless of success or failure, all four of them will not escape death.

But as a result, don't look at the heroic name of Yang Zhong just now, but in fact, Zhang Chong can see from this person at a glance that he is not the kind of trained dead soldier.

A dead man who failed to commit suicide as soon as he woke up deserves to be called a dead man?

That's why Zhang Chong had this doubt.

But since they weren't dead soldiers, then these people were improvised to assassinate?

Is it really because I saw him Zhang Chong and felt that the opportunity was rare? But wasn't the bow and crossbow prepared in advance?

Just when Zhang Chong was thinking about this question, there was another big hey, which was indeed issued by Guo Zu on the other side.

The rampage made their souls disappear by what happened to the assassin just now, and at this time, they saw that there were people who didn't know whether they were alive or dead to break the ban, so they directly made a ruthless move.

In a moment, two Han people dressed in ragged clothes as visitors were dragged in front of Zhang Chong.

Both of them had blue noses and swollen faces, and they couldn't see their looks.

And Zhang Dan on the side looked at one of them more and more familiarly, and finally couldn't help but ask:

"Xing Hao?"

This shout made the man with a swollen face with a pig's head cry.

He hugged Zhang Dan's thigh and cried:

"Dashuai, I finally saw you, woo woo, they are really not good people, they will beat me when they come up, I said our name is Xing Hao, and they beat me. Woo, it's really bullying our old Xing! Dashuai, you have to make decisions for Lao Xing! ”

Zhang Chong was stunned, this is Xing Hao who Zhang Chong sent out to find the guide before? So, Zhang Chong glanced at Cheng Pu and Han Dang, who had just dragged him over.

The two generals also realized that they might have beaten the wrong person, and they both lowered their heads silently, not daring to look directly at the king.

And Zhang Chong finally set his eyes on the other person, and saw that although he was messy, he was not beaten much, and he could still maintain some demeanor.

Could this person be the guide?

Seeing Zhang Chong looking at him, the man barely stood up from the ground, and then looked at Zhang Chong deeply and said:

"Fu Tian Chou of Wuzhong Mountain Village, I have seen the Taiwang!"

After hearing this name, Zhang Chong couldn't help but laugh again.

It was not until this time that Zhang Chong finally realized that he really had great luck!

……

Hiraoka.

This was originally the seat of the right Beiping County, protruding beyond the side wall, which alone shows the arrogance of the former Han Dynasty.

After all, one is to highlight the outside of the plug and the other is to shrink the inside and defend the country, and the gap between the two is too big.

And now, the heroism of the former Han Dynasty has gone to the past, and this Pinggang has also changed its owner, and it has become the place where Wuyan of Wuhuan Right Beiping has settled for the winter.

The name Hiraoka perfectly describes the topography of this area.

It is located at the intersection of Yanshan Mountain and Daxing'an Mountains, and is also called Pinggang because it is located on a large flat land between the two mountains.

It is also because the left side of this place is the Xianbei Plateau, and the right side is the Liaosong Plain, which is the transition zone of the two geographical units, so it has been a battleground for soldiers since ancient times. In later generations, this was the location of Daningwei in the Ming Dynasty, and I don't know how many stories were staged.

Only now, this is just a place for the Wuhuan people to spend the winter.

Because the west is high and the east is low, it can shelter the wind blowing on the plateau, and there is the Laoha River that flows all day long as drinking water, which can be said to be a rare wintering place.

At this time, behind an unknown slope, five or six hundred grassland round tents are scattered.

Among them, on the middle one, there is a totem pole carved from a log outside, with some colorful brocades tied to it, and the heads of cattle and sheep are hung, which from time to time provoke some goshawks to stop eating.

In this big tent, Wu Yan, the lord of the Beiping Department of Wu Huan, was happily enjoying the wine given by Zhang Dan, shaking his head and saying to the warriors below:

"Let's guard this Pinggang, isn't it more comfortable than that couch? Can he have the wine of the Han people to drink? Can he make the warriors of the tribe have iron weapons? He can make our wives wear silk? Can the old people of the tribe have a shelter to survive this cold winter? ”

Every time Wu Yan said a word, the little chiefs in the tent shouted, which pushed the atmosphere to the strongest.

But when Uyan indulged in the warmth of the moment, he didn't know that winter was coming.
