Chapter forty-ninth Luoyang visitor
"You are from Luoyang, is He Xian, the butler of He Mansion?"
Ma Yue looked at Yuan Shu like a wolf, and his sharp eyes were about to pierce the person.
Yuan Shu felt awe-inspiringly and responded calmly: "That's right."
Behind Yuan Shu, Sun Jian's face was as heavy as water, but his chest was filled with blood. Scenes of fierce battle in Bailongtan suddenly reappeared in front of him, and Zhu Jun's solemn words sounded in his ears again: Everyone, remember this person, if this person is not eliminated, one day he will become a major concern for my Han court!
Sun Jian's right hand quietly touched the handle of the waist knife. As long as he snatched up and cut off the head of Ma Yue, the eight hundred bandits would scatter after losing their leader. The Han Dynasty would eliminate the troubles of their confidants! When Sun Jian was about to draw his sword with his back, Yu Guang suddenly saw a man standing behind Ma Yue, but it was the man who led them to Wancheng. At this time, he was staring at him with cold eyes, and his right hand also held the handle of the waist knife tightly.
Sun Jian's eyes sterned, and he did not dare to move lightly.
Ma Yue seemed to have noticed it, turned to Sun Jian behind Yuan Shu, and said in a deep voice: "Who is this?"
Sun Jian was about to answer, but Yuan Shu was already rushing to say, "This He Jian is a general of the He family."
"He Jian?" Ma Yue frowned and said, "Okay, where is the horse?"
Yuan Shu said: "The horse is in Luyang, but you have to meet the old master before you can agree on the exchange of details."
Ma Yue smiled coldly and said to Pei Yuanshao beside him: "Lao Fei, invite Mr. He."
"Affect the order."
Pei Yuanshaohu roared and took the order and left.
After a while, He Zhen came to the hall under the hijacking of two bandits. Yuan Shu was Yuan Feng's second son. The Yuan family and the He family had always had friendship, so He Zhen naturally recognized Yuan Shu. So after seeing Yuan Shu, He Zhen was obviously stunned and said, "Vertical..."
Without waiting for He Zhen to say the word "nephew", Yuan Shu had already said first: "Old Master, it's Axian."
He Zhennian's old man's erratic voice immediately changed his words: "Axian, why are you here?"
Yuan Shu said respectfully: "After the order of the master, come and redeem the old master."
Ma Yue waved his hand and asked the bandits to rob He Zhen again, and said coldly: "You have seen it, tell me, how to exchange it?"
Yuan Shu said: "Let the person first, then drive the horse away!"
Ma Yue said, "Why do you believe in you for a joke? Pioneer the horse and let people go!"
Yuan Shu said: "This is difficult. The number of troops and horses is huge and cannot be exchanged in front of the formation. What if it does?"
Ma Yue said: "My leader Zhou Cang is still in the hands of you and others, and you can exchange it in front of the formation."
Yuan Shu said: "How can Zhou Cang be compared with the old man?"
Ma Yue said coldly: "Although Zhou Cang is a small leader, he is my life and death brother, and there is no reason to give up! I intend to be a military horse, and I have no intention of taking Old Master He's life. If I believe me, I will drive the military horses to exchange within three days. If I don't believe me, I will come to collect his body in three days!"
Yuan Shu said: "Okay, it's noon three days later, but the exchange location must be in Zhixian County between Wancheng and Luyang. At that time, I will first drive the horses out of the city and deliver them to you, and then the two armies will exchange hostages in front of the formation. The captured officials of Nanyang must also be released together. How about it?"
Yuan Shu said this just right. In fact, he was unwilling to exchange it in Wancheng. If he traded in Wancheng, what if He Jin sent a large brigade of official troops to escort the military horses, and once the transaction was completed and he would surround Wancheng, the eight hundred bandits would become turtles in the jar!
Ma Yue said: "One word is certain!"
Yuan Shu said: "One word is certain!"
The two of them swear by high-fives.
Yuan Shu bowed his hand and said aloud: "Goodbye."
Ma Yue smiled coldly and said calmly: "I won't send it."
Watching Yuan Shu and his party leave, Ma Yueshi said in a deep voice: "Guan Hai!"
Guan Haisenran said: "Here."
"If He Xian wants to play tricks, he must first contact Huang Zhong and other troops in Jiyang counties. He can send more horses to pay close attention to the Nanyang soldiers in Jiyang counties. If there is any abnormal movement, he will immediately repay."
"Abide by the order!"
"Mao San, Niu Si!"
"exist."
"Immediately lead 50 people to lurk outside the city of Chi County and closely monitor the movements in the city. If no army or horses enter the city within three days, or if a large number of official troops are found to enter Chi County, I will report it immediately."
"Abide by the order!"
"Pei Yuanshao."
"exist!"
"Emphasis of the blacksmith shop, the carpenters' craftsmen are working hard to build horseshoes and kicks, and do not neglect them!"
"Abide by the order!"
Guan Hai and others took the order and left. The horses lowered and raised their bodies. They were excited. Military horses! 2,000 military horses! Unexpectedly, He Jin was still surrendered. Sure enough, military horses were used to exchange He Zhen. It seems that the ancients really had a great reputation. If they had the chance, they would definitely catch He Zhen again and squeeze out some oil and water from He Jin, hehe!
At this time, Ma Yue didn't know that he had a feat of capturing Wancheng with only 800 bandits and blackmailing the generals of the current dynasty. Even Emperor Ling of Han was shocked. He appointed Yuan Shu as the General of the Hu Ben, led the prefect of Nanyang, and led 5,000 elite Han troops to go out to Nanyang to attack him.
A huge net aimed at 2,000 military horses as bait, aiming to hunt and kill Ma Yue and 800 bandits is quietly opening. Due to the lack of intelligence, Ma Yue knows nothing about it and still dreams of cavalry traversing across the Central Plains! Just like a cavalry of more than a thousand people galloping across the flower world of the Central Plains, and wherever the cavalry passes, wolf smoke is everywhere.
...
At the north gate of Wancheng, a long-skinned, ragged beggar with a crutch on his face, limped towards the open city gate. The beggar came to the gate and stretched out the dirty bowl in his hand towards the bandit guarding the gate, begging: "You are fine, the villain hasn't eaten for a few days, give me some food."
"Go and go." The bandit kicked the beggar to the ground with a kick and shouted impatiently, "When you enter the city, there is a charity village in the city, you'll be there just walking forward. It's another idle meal, really."
The beggar struggled to get up from the ground and went with great gratitude until he walked away far away. His eyes, which had been squinting, began to widen, revealing the brightness and clarity that was absolutely inconsistent with the beggar. He murmured to himself: "Ma Yue can treat even a beggar well, and he thought he could treat the sisters who were wandering in the dust. I don't know if the eight hundred bandits have the courage and fighting as mentioned in the official military report, so I should carefully observe it."
...
In Luyang, the official army camp, Yuan Shu immediately beat the drum beater after returning from Wancheng.
After the three-way drum, all generals and officials from all walks of life together with all major and large officials of Luyang gathered in Yuan Shu's camp.
Yuan Shu glanced at the week with a stern look and said loudly: "This time I went to Wancheng, although it was dangerous, I also gained a lot. The 800 bandits' background, and I already knew it. The defeat of the thief should be three days later, and Jin Shang obeyed the order!"
Jin Shang stepped forward and stood in the account and said loudly: "Here."
Yuan Shu said: "He led the position of Nanyang County, led 200 Luyang soldiers to drive the army and horses into Chi County, and fed the army horses three days later. There must be no mistakes."
Jin Shang clasped his fists and said, "Abide by the order."
"Sun Jian obeys the order!"
Sun Jian took a step forward and said suddenly: "Here."
"The four generals of Zumao, Cheng Pu, Han Dang and Huang Gai led their troops to 1,000 and lie 20 miles west of Zhi County. After noon, they immediately led their troops to the southeast to cover the killing."
"Abide by the order!"
"Zhang Xun obeys the order!"
"exist."
"Lead 1,000 troops and lie 20 miles east of Chi County. As soon as noon is over, he leads his troops to the southwest to cover the killing."
"Affect the order."
"Yuan Yin obeyed the order."
"exist."
"Lead 1,000 cavalrymen and lie 30 miles north of Chi County. After noon, the army was rushed to the south to kill."
"Affect the order."
"The other generals, each of them, will be in charge of the camp with them."
Yuan Shu was assigned to the post, and all the generals believed it without doubt. Only Jin Shang frowned and thought for a moment, but he couldn't help but remind him: "General, do you still have a word that should be said or not?"
Yuan Shu smiled and said, "But it's okay."
Jin Shang said: "If General Yuan Yin's cavalry went south to cut off the retreat route of 800 bandits, and then the general led the central army to cover the killing from the north, he could encircle all sides under the city of Chi County, and the eight hundred bandits and horses could not fly."
A strange smile appeared in Yuan Shu's eyes and said, "The Battle of Chiyang has only two goals. One is to save Mr. He, the other is to regain 2,000 military horses, as for destroying 800 bandits and recapturing Wancheng, the time is not yet ripe, so let's discuss it later."
Jin Shangran was silent, although he was puzzled, he stopped saying anything.
A hint of awe of awe flashed through Yuan Shu's eyes.
In fact, Jin Shang was right. Three days later, Zhixian County offered horses and replaced hostages. Ma Yueshang did not know that Yuan Shu had led 5,000 elite official troops to Nanyang, and he would definitely come in person. If Yuan Yin's cavalry was condemned at this time, he cut off the way for Ma Yue to return, and then Yuan Shu led the central army from the north, Sun Jian from the west, and Zhang Xun from the east, and surrounded him from all sides, then Ma Yue and his troops would die without a lifetime.
