The moon is full and the stars are everywhere.

Under the soft moonlight, Wang Yan, Huang Zhong and his group advanced in the moonlight.

Wang Yan sat in the carriage and asked through the window of the carriage: "Hansheng, why did you suddenly come to Hulao Pass with the Eighteen Cavalry? Could it be that you have arrived before?"

Huang Zhong's eyes showed a look of gratitude and replied: "Cao Cao issued a proclamation to attack Dong Zhuo. The news reached Yangdu County. Mr. Hu Zhao concluded that you would leave Luoyang and go to Hulaoguan Alliance. Mr. Hu was worried that your safety could not be guaranteed, so he ordered me to lead the eighteen cavalry to protect you. Fortunately, he arrived."

Wang Yan understood the causes and consequences and ordered: "You took the Eighteen Cavalry to travel overnight, and fought again at night, and they were already exhausted. Besides, it was already late at night. Find a place to rest and go on a journey tomorrow morning."

Huang Zhong replied without hesitation: "On the way I came, I paid attention to the road conditions. Not far ahead, there is a dilapidated temple. We can rest in front of us.

"Can"

Wang Yan nodded, and he turned around, looked at Diao Chan sitting in the carriage, and said softly: "From Hulao Pass to Yangdu County, I have to continue to rush the road. Thank you for your hard work."

Diao Chan smiled and said, "Diao Chan is not hard with her son." When she wandered around with Wang Yun, she encountered hard and tiring days. In the current situation, Diao Chan didn't feel bitter at all. Especially with Wang Yan around, Diao Chan felt even more happy.

The group rushed to the road, but in a short time, they came outside a dilapidated temple.

This dilapidated temple is empty, with no one in the front hall or the back hall.

Shi A and his entourage quickly cleaned up Yu Jing, and then spread Yu Cao. Diao Chan lived in the back hall, while Wang Yan, Jia Xu, Shi A, Huang Zhong and others stayed in the front hall.

Huang Zhong said, "Lord, let's rest first, I'll watch tonight."

Wang Yan thought for a while, but he did not answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Guo Jia and Jia Xu and ordered: "Wenhe, Fengxiao, you two will rest early and you will have to hurry tomorrow."

The two nodded and lie down on the grass and sleep in the clothes.

Wang Yan looked at Huang Zhong again and ordered: "Hansheng, the eighteen cavalry have already been exhausted. Let them put down the war horses and come in and rest. Tonight, Shi A and I will take turns to guard, you will rest."

Huang Zhong had a stubborn expression and said, "The lord is polite to the soldiers, and the soldiers of the eighteen cavalry will definitely be relieved. But they are responsible for the lord's safety and cannot enter the temple to rest. Otherwise, if an accident occurs, it will be difficult to respond in time. Just let them rest outside on the spot. It is midsummer now, and the bonfire will not be cold."

Wang Yan thought for a while and ordered, "Let's go outside." He walked out, and Huang Zhong quickly persuaded, "Lord, you don't have to do this."

Wang Yan said: "I have decided, so I don't need to persuade me anymore."

He walked out, Huang Zhong had to follow, and Shi Ah hurriedly followed behind.

Jia Xu looked at Wang Yan's departure back with a glimmer of expression in his eyes. He had not had much contact with Wang Yan, and the only thing that could be confirmed was that Wang Yan was very skilled in martial arts, outstanding in strategy, and extremely cunning. Now it seems that Wang Yan is not only good at both civil and military affairs, but also good at controlling and attracting people's hearts. It is very easy for Wang Yan to rest outside, but when the soldiers saw this, who was not moved? Not working hard?

Guo Jia opened his eyes and murmured: "Brother Wenhe, you will encounter more and more surprises with Wang Yan. I have been following him since he entered Luoyang and have been following him until now, and have witnessed many miracles."

Jia Xu raised his eyebrows and said slowly: "I'll wait and see."

Outside the temple, Wang Yan appeared, and a group of soldiers hurriedly stood up to salute. Wang Yan nodded slightly, asked everyone to sit down and rest, and then ordered: "You dare to come from Yangdu County, and you have a long journey and have no time to rest. Tonight, I will watch."

"This is an order, and cannot be refuted."

"I have to hurry up tomorrow morning. Time is tight, so I won't talk much nonsense. Take the time to rest."

Wang Yan waved his hand and ordered directly.

The soldiers could not refuse, so they had to rest on the spot. However, their hearts were warm and they were very brave.

Huang Zhong sat down next to Wang Yan, knowing that he could not persuade Wang Yan. In addition, Wang Yan could rest in the carriage during the day, so he stopped persuading him and closed his eyes and rested.

Shi A sat beside Wang Yan without speaking.

Outside the temple, there was silence.

There was only the rustling and windy sound and the crackling sound of the bonfire. Under the night sky, Wang Yan added Yu Chuan to the bonfire from time to time to ensure that the bonfire was not extinguished. He also kept the movement around him while resting his energy.

Apart from the sound of wind and insects, there is no other sound.

Time flowed pretty from the fingertips. When the sky became brighter, Wang Yan suddenly opened his eyes. Wang Yan lay down directly, leaned his ears on the ground, and listened carefully.

"Cabinets appeared"

A sharp look appeared in Wang Yan's eyes and he shouted in a low voice.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Huang Zhong woke up immediately. Huang Zhong was good at marching and fighting, and he immediately lay on the ground and listened. After a while, Huang Zhong stood up and said in a deep voice: "Analysis of the sound coming from afar, there will be no more than one hundred cavalrymen. The last general boldly inferred that eighty cavalry might not be able to reach. More accurate data cannot be speculated."

Wang Yan said in a deep voice: "No matter what, since the cavalry has come, we cannot avoid it. Be on guard immediately and prepare for the battle. If the opponent's goal is not us, don't pay attention. If the opponent's goal is us, fight immediately."

"promise"

When Huang Zhong got the order, he immediately ordered.

After a while, the eighteen elite cavalrymen turned over and were ready to fight.

Huang Zhong also turned over the horse. He held a long knife in his hand and said, "Lord, you and Shi A retreat to the entrance of the temple. Once you fight, you can avoid the impact of the war horses in the temple, and the last general will not have any worries."

Wang Yan nodded slightly and retreated with Shi A.

At this time, the gray sky faded in the east.

A touch of fish belly appeared from the east.

Gradually, the sound of vibration on the ground became more and more obvious, and even if you stand, you can feel the vibration.

"Boom"

The sound of horse hooves is like thunder, coming from far and near.

In a blink of an eye, golden glow gusts from the east. The morning glow is rising, and the glow is pouring down, and the sky is bright. Wang Yan's eyes touched and he saw a cavalry charging. His pupils shrink and he said in a deep voice: "After this cavalry discovered us, he still rushed forward and was full of murderous aura. He was coming to us."

At this moment, Wang Yan looked solemn, and he speculated who would send cavalry to cover up the killing.
