Chapter 160: Homecoming

originally thought that it would be a scolding, Xu Huang was even ready to be kicked off by Dong Zhuo, who would have thought that what was waiting for him was an encouragement.

At this time, Xu Huang, not to mention that he just didn't bloom a piece of the sky that belonged to him, even if it was the glorious immortal general in history, in front of Dong Zhuo's already high official position, it would look dull, no matter what, Xu Huang didn't expect that Dong Zhuo didn't blame him for not saying it, but even put down his body to encourage him, and in an instant, a feeling of emotion rose in Xu Huang's heart.

"There is no way to repay the kindness of knowing the encounter, although Huang is a martial artist, even if he dies, he will never insult the prestige of the lord." Looking at Dong Zhuo, who was drifting away, Xu Huang muttered in his heart.

Dong Zhuo, who had already left, didn't expect that his encouragement would make him unexpectedly win Xu Huang's loyalty.

In fact, the current Xu Huang is still too immature, and he can't hide anything in his heart, the panic on his face before, and the lack of thoughts, were all seen by Dong Zhuo one by one, and he had already listened to the statistics reported by everyone, Dong Zhuo naturally knew why Xu Huang was worried.

It's just that Dong Zhuo doesn't care about these the most, Xu Huang has potential, he dares to bet on him, even if he loses now, what he values more is the height that Xu Huang can reach in the future, which may be a certain benefit brought by being a person in the future.

At this time of the war, there was basically no suspense, and by the time the battlefield was cleaned, the sky was already bright, and the sun and clouds in the sky were entangled.

"Lord......" "Lord......"

After cleaning up, Zhang Liao and the others returned to Dong Zhuo's side one after another.

"Let's go, let's go." Looking at the team of soldiers in front of them, although there was a trace of tiredness on their faces, after experiencing this bloody battle, the bloody aura emanating from their bodies made their temperament change greatly, and they looked more energetic.

Five teams of 5,000 people, after a big battle, but almost doubled compared to before, the march of more than 9,000 people was suddenly much slower than when they came before, except for the weapons that were easy to bring and take away, other things were ordered by Dong Zhuo, a fire was burned, and the long line was mighty, slowly moving away on the mountain road.

The trail is difficult to walk, and there will eventually be a time to finish, not long after dark that night, Dong Zhuo and his party finally caught up with Zhen Yan and them who left first, because they were afraid that the Montenegrin army would come back, Dong Zhuo and they did not dare to rush forward without the slightest stop, and finally in the middle of the night, the group finally stumbled out of the trail.

After a day of rest in Yangquan, the team of more than 10,000 people went on the road again, on the way, Dong Zhuo ordered the old and weak people in the captives to be eliminated from the team, and then the remaining captives were scattered and reorganized, and were divided by Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Le Jin, and Zhao Zhao, and began a large-scale "training".

Three days later, the team approached Jinyang again, but this time, Dong Zhuo obviously did not plan to enter Jinyang again, and after explaining to Chen Zhi, who had come secretly, he only took a short rest outside the city before starting to hit the road again.

The so-called Wangshan ran a dead horse, Dong Zhuo, who was eager to return home, almost did not stop along the way, looking at Chang'an day and night, in order to show that as the master and the father, Dong Zhuo walked out of the carriage and rode on the horse to rush away, the road is getting closer and closer, but the distance from Chang'an's heart does not seem to have shortened at all.

In just five days, a group of people crossed the southwest of Bingzhou, transferred from Fuxian to the southeast, and in five days, they traveled more than 1,400 miles, and on average, the group reached a terrifying nearly 300 miles.

Don't underestimate these three hundred miles, although the speed of the ancients was not fast, [like Xiahou Yuan, known as 800 miles a day], but this was a march with full preparation, and they relied on the power of horses when they marched, while Dong Zhuo and them almost all relied on their legs.

The Zhen family is rich in the world, but the wealth of the Zhen family is more concentrated in the grain, tea and other industries, and the war horse, as the most important means of transportation in this era, can be said to be as important as the long-range missiles of later generations, which is a deterrent. Not to mention the Zhen family, in the entire Han Dynasty, there are no giant merchants who can sell horses, otherwise after Mi Zhu joined Liu Bei, he couldn't even form a cavalry for Liu Bei with his family wealth, is the Mi family's financial resources insufficient? Joke!

Some people may mention Su and Zhang, but a few people have noticed that merchants like Su and Zhang can sell thousands of horses with the efforts of their two families, and how much can their family assets have?

If you are a businessman, the court will not control it, at most it will only be ruthless in squeezing, but once it comes to the important weapon of the country, whoever touches it will die, and can develop the Zhen family to the current scale, whether it is Zhen Yi or Zhen Yu, both of them are smart people, and they are sold against war horses, they are hot-eyed, but they will never participate, and where are the horses equipped with the family?

The speed is there, but under such a high-speed march, the price paid by the group is not small, after five consecutive days of galloping, the sixth day of one day, the convoy only traveled dozens of miles, when it arrived at Luochuan, even Dong Zhuo was tired of drilling into the carriage, saying that he would not come out again.

Although Luochuan is in the northernmost part of Yongzhou, after all, it can be regarded as entering his own territory, and after thinking about it, Dong Zhuo simply ordered everyone to stay in Luochuan temporarily.

In the cold winter, Luoshui is like stepping into an old man who has entered his old age, slowly flowing eastward. In the old days, many of the places where people lived were in the plains, and Luochuan was one of them.

Qin Kaiqian Mo, Luochuan because of its vast terrain, flat, and Luoshui through it and get the name, the surrounding place is a horse Pingchuan, thousands of miles of fertile fields, since the Qin, hundreds of years continue to change the territory, to the Eastern Han Dynasty when merged into Zuo Fengyi.

Originally, Zuo Fengyi was subordinate to the Jingshi and was under the direct jurisdiction of Luoyang, but later when Dong Zhuo moved west, he simply assigned this place to the rule of Yongzhou, and in order to get out of Dong Zhuo's clutches as soon as possible, Emperor Liu Xie even handed over the land of Fufeng County to Dong Zhuo's jurisdiction. In this way, counting the Jingzhao that Dong Zhuo has been occupying since he occupied Chang'an, all the land of Sanfu has been in his hands.

Everyone almost fell asleep as soon as they lay down, Dong Zhuo slept for a day and night before he was finally woken up by hunger, after pushing the door and walking out, he saw Xu Chu sleeping soundly leaning on the door frame, turned around and went back to the house to take out a quilt for Xu Chu to put on his body, and then he stepped to the kitchen.
