"So cruel?! Can you be sure that the bandits are coming? There is no misunderstanding in the middle, right?" Han Chongyun jumped, and instinctively felt that this matter was too strange.

Unlike Zezhou and Luzhou, as a buffer zone between the Later Jin court and the Han Palace in the past decade, no one has the heart to manage it, and it eventually became a nest of bandits. Huaizhou is close to Bianliang, although bandits are not extinct, but the order is among the best in the entire Central Plains. Suddenly a group of bandits emerged here and had the courage to besiege the city, which is a bit too strange. At least, Han Chongyun himself had never heard of any green forest strands that migrated there.

When several messengers heard this, they immediately burst into tears, "It's not a misunderstanding, it's not a misunderstanding. My family, my major general, my major general was injured on the chest. Even if I could still be rescued, I will never be able to live without a sickbed for the rest of my life! If it's a misunderstanding among colleagues, who dares to take such a ruthless move? If it's a misunderstanding, who dares to openly kill people outside the city and slaughter the village?!"

"Kill people and slaughter the village?" Han Chongyun tightened his hand and the sword on his waist was pulled out a large part. Although the bandits in the Taihang Mountains did many evil deeds, they would not easily kill the people in the entire village. Those who dared to use such cruel means to deal with the people either had an irreconcilable hatred with the Meng family in Huaizhou, or were inhumane foreign barbarians. At present, whether they were Khitans, Tubos, or Dangxiang people, they were thousands of miles away from Huaizhou.

"Slaughter the village! They first threatened Liu Governor Xiancheng. Liu Governor refused. They arrested all the people in the two villages near Ximen and massacred them in front of the soldiers in the city. They also said that this was just a warning. If Qinyang City did not open its doors to surrender within three days, they would slaughter a village every other day!" The messengers became more and more sad and more panicked. They lay on the ground and kowtowed constantly. "General Han, your troops are close to Huaizhou. If you don't go, the 200,000 fellow villagers in the inner and outer city of Qinyang City will not survive!"

"Whose flag is they used to attack, who is the leader of the team? What is the scale? How many soldiers are there? You won't just run to me to help rescue soldiers, right? The Hezhong Jiedu next to them, and the Bianliang and Guide Army on the south bank..." Han Chongyun was furious when he heard this, suppressing the urge to kill people and continued to dig into the bottom.

"No flag! The team is not big, at most seven or eight thousand people. However, there are many in the team, many of them are Khitan barbarians!" A messenger was anxious when asked, staring with red eyes and explaining.

"It may be Khitans, or Khitans pretending to be robbers. We didn't figure it out!" Another messenger was afraid of frightening Han Chongyun, so he quickly added, "The emperor personally led the expedition. There were only imperial guards in Bianliang City, and there was no imperial order to leave the city. The Guide army was now following Gao Shuai to go to Yedu. All the remaining old camps were auxiliary soldiers, and it was impossible to rescue Huaizhou. As for Hezhong, Zhao Jiedu was summoned by the emperor. No one in the army made a decision, and he could not send a single soldier!"

"General Han is kind to you, General Han is kind to you! It's not that we have to force you, but in fact, we can't find anyone else! If you refuse to send troops, hundreds of thousands of people in Huaizhou will have to be slaughtered!" After hearing this, the other messengers lay on the ground and kept kowtowing. After a while, blood flowed from their foreheads, tears flowed all over their faces and bodies.

Although Han Chongyun was far more mature than his peers, he had never lost his good nature. He cried pitifully when the messengers cried. He couldn't help but touch the arrows on the command line on the command line. Seeing this, Yang Guangyi stepped forward and blocked his body, and then asked loudly: "You said you are from Huaizhou, are there any letters for help?"

"Yes, yes!" The messenger leader agreed repeatedly, took out a mulberry envelope that had been soaked in sweat from his arms, and held it over his head with both hands.

Han Chongyun took the letter and stood with Yang Guangyi and checked it repeatedly. The characters were in a standard Yan style. Although they were written in a hurry, the words were extremely neat. They included the urgency of the situation in Huaizhou, the reasons for asking for troops from the Tiger Yi Army, and the compensation for food and grass after the troops were sent. They were all clearly written. At a glance, they knew that the person who wrote the letter was an old official who was familiar with the rules of the officialdom, rather than a tyrant under the command of a bandit bandit. At the end of the letter, there was a handwritten signature of Meng Yuangao, the son of the Heyang Jiedushi Meng Jingyu, which was covered with the official seal of the commander of the Heyang Yanei Yan. (Note 2)

The two exchanged their eyes with each other, and then prepared to agree to send troops to rescue. At this moment, a few low coughs suddenly came from the queue of generals, "Well, um, um!". They turned their heads and saw Ning Ziming, the commander of the Huozi, bent over and covered his chest with his hands, and coughed so hard that he was out of breath.

"Zi Ming, what's wrong with you?" Han Chongyun's brow jumped slightly again, and then he gave up the idea of ​​sending troops immediately, and strode towards the source of the coughing sound.

"General Ning, General Ning, what's wrong with you? Is the arrow wounded again? Doctor, come, please ask the doctor!" Although Yang Guangyi still ignored Ning Ziming's ai, his reaction speed was absolutely fast enough at the critical moment. He also pretended to rush to Ning Ziming, blocked the envoy's gaze with his body, and roared loudly.

"Arrow wound, arrow wound, my chest, my chest hurts!" Ning Ziming understood it and blinked at Han Chongyun and Yang Guangyi, and fell head-on.

Han Chongyun quickly looked fast and immediately grabbed him from the air. At the same time, he turned his body and shouted, "What are you doing when you are standing there? Hurry up and invite the doctor! General Ning's arrow injury recurs."

"Yes, hurry up, please call the doctor!"

"Hurry, go and call the doctor. Go and prepare the cough-relieving soup!" The generals were a little stunned and quickly understood the problem. They all pretended to be busy, and they cooled down the envoys next to them, and no one paid attention to them again!

After a storm, the doctor finally arrived and arranged for Ning Ziming to carry the soldiers away. Han Chongyun's mentality completely regained his calmness. He walked to the side of several messengers, sighed, and said apologetically: "Oh! Get up first. Han needs to carefully plan with his brothers for reinforcements before he can make the final decision!"

"General Han, be kind to you. You can't delay any more! If you delay for one more day, a village will be slaughtered!" The messengers immediately looked desperate when they heard this. They mourned and kowtowed constantly.

Han Chongyun looked unbearable, but he shook his head firmly, "Get up and talk. It's not me who perfunctory you, you guys have seen it before. Han is seriously injured and if he sends troops in a hurry, his morale will inevitably be greatly damaged. Not only can he not save Qinyang, but he will increase the arrogance of the thief. But don't worry, as long as General Ning's physical condition improves slightly, the Huwei Army will send troops immediately. No further delays!!"

Note 1: This is a historical fact. Liu Zhiyuan forced the Khitans to return north by relying on the means of "people's war", but the overall strength of the Later Han Dynasty was far inferior to that of the Liao Kingdom. Therefore, he tried his best to win over the heroes at the junction of Han and Liao Kingdom. However, due to civil strife, the Liao Kingdom was unable to go south again for the time being, so he also adopted the same method to show goodwill to local heroes on the border. A man named Sun Fang advised the Green Forest heroes who were first appointed as the governor of the Liao Kingdom, but was unwilling to be dispatched by the Liao Kingdom, and then abandoned his official position and entered the mountains as bandits. Then he took advantage of the Liao Kingdom's retreat to the north and robbed an empty city and returned to the Han Dynasty. He was immediately appointed as the governor of the Yiwu Army by Liu Zhiyuan. This man later had a prosperous official career and was given the title of Grand Tutor after his death.
