Chapter 838: The Three Commanders He Xing
Just as the leader of the big man gave the order, preparing to take down Su Qi'an's caravan in one fell swoop, suddenly, the ground in place shook faintly, accompanied by a slight noise.
Everyone looked back and saw a thin man, using his hands and feet at the same time, running with an anxious face, and said to the leader of the big man.
"Oh no, the master, He Xing and the people from the Beishan camp are coming towards us, the brothers can't resist it, and it will be there in a few moments at most."
The report of his subordinates made the face of the man on horseback change greatly in an instant, and even the leader of the house was also dignified.
scolded secretly, damned, seemed to be quite jealous of He Xing, and then said to a group of subordinates.
"Quick, pass on the order of the master, alternate and retreat quickly."
But one of them couldn't help but say, "It's a pity that the head of the house finally encountered such a meat ticket and left like this." ”
The leader of the big man didn't know that if he left like this today, the meat in his mouth would be lost, but he was still very afraid of the Beishan camp brought by He Xing.
But what his subordinates said made sense, and it was really a pity, just when the eyes of the leader of the big man flashed, thinking about making a decision.
Sou! Sou! Sou!
Without warning, at the end of the distance, several arrows were shot in an instant, and the arrows shot quickly, fortunately, more than ten people on horseback reacted quickly enough to dodge the arrows, but the men in front of them were not so lucky, and they fell to the ground on the spot.
Looking at this scene, the leader of the big man no longer hesitated, and scolded coldly, "Why the hell are you staying where you are, if you want to die, I won't stop you, if you want to live, retreat for me immediately." ”
Saying that, he no longer cared about his subordinates, and immediately clamped his horse between his legs, whipped the horse, and disappeared at the end of the road at a gallop.
However, when leaving, everyone's ears were filled with the cold voice of the leader of the man.
"He Xing, don't be too happy, this time it's Uncle Ben's kindness, I don't want to entangle with you, look at it, it won't be long, don't talk about you, when the time comes, it will be destroyed together with your Beishan camp, let's see."
As soon as the sound that echoed in everyone's ears fell, at the end of the ground in the distance, a large number of people and horses soon appeared, they were wearing the armor of the Beishan camp, and they didn't even look at the caravan held hostage in the middle, without any stop, and quickly pursued the bandits who appeared just now.
The bandits who were still menacing just now, with the appearance of the soldiers of the Beishan Battalion, had already fled in all directions, and they were not even the slightest bit arrogant.
The soldiers of the Beishan Battalion, who galloped by, quickly disappeared from everyone's sight, and after about a while, behind them, a team of soldiers on horseback slowly came.
There were about a dozen of them, and they should be officers and generals of the Beishan battalion in terms of clothing.
Not long after staying in front of Su Qi'an's caravan, the first officer in the middle, who seemed to be the commander, turned his head and said to his subordinates.
"Leave a few people, inquire about the origin of this caravan, and take them to the nearest county seat to live temporarily, and the rest of the people will follow the commander to hunt down and kill Zheng Da."
"If you don't eliminate all these guys this time, you will lose the face of the Beishan Battalion."
Then, the burly Han general, led by him, looked into the distance with serious eyes, and was just about to take a few of his men to chase after the fleeing bandits, when a voice sounded in the caravan.
"Are you the Three Commanders? I didn't expect us to be so destined to meet you here. ”
He Xing was stunned, and when he was about to leave, he immediately stopped moving.
Looking around, the person who exited fell on Su Qi'an after a while, but there was a little doubt on his face.
In his memory, there doesn't seem to be the image of the young man with a beard in front of him, but for some reason, he feels a little familiar with the person in front of him.
Su Qi'an said with a smile, "The three commanders are really nobles, the last time I left Zhongzhou, if there was no help from the three commanders, I am afraid that most of them would be trapped in Beishan County,"
Although Su Qi'an said vaguely, He Xing quickly realized something, looked at Su Qi'an with his eyes, and after a while, he seemed to have found something, his eyes were wide open, and his face showed a look of horror, as if he had found something terrible.
The next moment, he quickly regained his composure and said to his subordinates beside him, "These people are old friends of this commander, so let's do it, you pursue Zheng Da, and these people will be handed over to this commander." ”
He Xingdu said so, and the subordinates nodded slightly, and then rode away, after all, who doesn't have some personal relationships, and occasionally bumps into them, it's nothing, let alone their commander.
Several of his subordinates left very interestingly, only He Xing and the remaining two henchmen were left in the same place, and when the soldiers of the Beishan battalion completely walked away, He Xing couldn't bear it anymore, and immediately turned over and dismounted, and came to Su Qi'an, didn't care about saluting, and said with a shocked look.
"Hundred... Baishouhou, why did you come to Zhongzhou, and how did you escape? "Does the prince know?"
Looking at the three commanders in front of him who were more excited than himself, Su Qi'an patted him on the shoulder and comforted.
"Let's talk about this matter, I'll talk to you in detail when I have time, I came to Zhongzhou, Lord Yu didn't know, if he knew, I'm afraid he wouldn't have worked so hard all the way."
He Xing showed a sudden expression, and said again and again, "That's right, if the prince knew your whereabouts, I'm afraid he would have come out to answer it a long time ago." ”
"But Master Hou, it's good that you can escape, by the way, I almost forgot to tell the news to the state pastor and the prince, if they know, they must be very happy."
"This is not a place to talk, I'm a little overjoyed, Master Hou, I'll escort you to Qinghe County."
Su Qi'an nodded slightly, took He Xing into his carriage, and asked as he walked.
"It seems that the news of my escape from Kyoto has reached Zhongzhou so quickly? I don't think it will be long before the Daliang states know about it. ”
He Xing nodded affirmatively, "Yes, Master Hou, don't you know that the entire Zhongzhou is now a wanted warrant for your murder and rebellion, as long as you provide clues, you will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver." ”
"Tut-tut, even providing a clue is such a high reward, if you take me, wouldn't it be worry-free for a lifetime, such a good opportunity for the three commanders, you have to take advantage of it."
Su Qi'an's ridicule, He Xing shook his head and said, "Hehe, ten thousand taels of silver, you have to have a life to take it, I still understand what virtues those officials in Kyoto have, even if they really provide clues, I am afraid that after most of them are used, they will directly find a no-man's corner and bury them, after all, the silver goes into whose purse is not in, and the silver, even if it is a Kyoto official, it will not be too little." ”
"What's more, I don't believe that Master Hou is the one who killed the monarch and rebelled, although I don't know what happened to you in Kyoto, but you will definitely not be the one who killed the monarch and rebelled."
He Xing said very surely, Su Qi'an smiled and said, "Oh, why are you so sure? ”
"Just because Hou Ye has fought on the border battlefield many times, and has led the border army to defeat the invading foreign tribes again and again, I am also a soldier, just with this blood, Hou Ye is not this kind of rebellious person, and I also believe in the vision of the state pastor and the prince."
He Xing's words were sincere, and Su Qi'an was relieved to see it.
The reason why he fled Kyoto and chose Zhongzhou as his first stop was out of trust in King Yu and Zhou Mu, even if there was only a seemingly illusory promise between them.
It is precisely this kind of commitment that gives people a kind of gentleman's friendship, as long as it is identified, even if there is no contact, it seems to be a thin affection, but at the critical moment, it will definitely help.
If the two of them can have such qualities, the people under them must also be like the three commanders He Xing, who only have a one-sided relationship with Su Qi'an.
But Su Qi'an still believes in this person, otherwise he would not have let Tong Zhan and others, who served as the striker, not return to defense when he made a move.
And He Xing did not disappoint Su Qi'an, and solved the matter in front of him very smoothly.
As He Xing got into the carriage, everyone slowly walked towards Qinghe County, and Su Qi'an opened his mouth at this time to ask the doubts in his heart.
"Three Commanders, Zhongzhou should not be so chaotic in my memory, even if there are bandits, it will not be so rampant, if I think correctly, your broken arm should also be thanks to these bandits, what happened in Zhongzhou."
Hearing this, He Xing's smile retracted, and he turned his head to look at the empty sleeve on his left, with a complicated look written on his face.
It was not that Su Qi'an deliberately wanted to expose He Xing's scars, but a series of things he experienced made him feel more and more that Zhongzhou was in a very serious turmoil.
Not to mention anything else, the soldiers of the Beishan Battalion who were led and supported by He Xing this time gave Su Qi'an a feeling of considerable exhaustion, as if he had experienced a hard battle recently.
Moreover, if you can see the number of teams that have been moved, you can guess that the strength of the Beishan Battalion is at least less than half of what it was before.
You must know that in Zhongzhou, the combat power of the Beishan battalion, not to mention the strongest, but it is also the best, although the two kings were planted before, but before Su Qi'an left, he remembered that King Yu had taken down the great commander Xu Shan and the second commander Feng Dian.
With the means of King Yu and Zhongzhou Mu, coupled with the management of the three commanders He Xing, the Beishan Battalion should be able to become the biggest help, not like now, even a group of ruffians who went up the mountain to bandits were not taken into account.
The previous Beishan Battalion, which didn't speak, and just standing there, could make the bandits tremble, why is it much weaker now.
He Xing is not a mother-in-law, and after a short silence, he said.
"Master Hou, listening to your words, I think you should know something from Zheng Da."
Su Qi'an nodded, "The Zheng Da He Xing said is most likely the ruffian who robbed the mountain soldiers just now." Su Qi'an secretly guessed.
"His identity, Hou Ye should be able to guess it, I won't say more, people like him are only a lot more in Zhongzhou, he is right, but Zhongzhou is in a lot of civil strife, even more serious than Hou Ye thinks."
"This matter has to start from three months ago, "Three months ago, 50,000 Zhongzhou soldiers were dispatched to the north to support Ningzhou, which was basically a normal transfer, at first the state minister and the prince didn't care too much, and so did we." ”
"But who would have thought that the dispatch of 40,000 Zhongzhou soldiers to the north is a huge conspiracy, a trap, or a trap at the beginning."
