The first thousand one hundred and eighty-three chapters
Chapter 1,183 An underhanded move
The figure of the secret guard leader appeared outside Jushou's house and spoke quietly inside.
"Have Kuai Yue's people taken action?"
Jushu's voice sounded inside the room.
"Well, Kuai Yue is also smart. He asked his people to leave the house in a night fragrance car, and then mixed in the crowd and left the city the next day. Then he got on his horse in a farmhouse outside the city and left, heading towards Qingzhou.
,
It's a pity that he thought he did it perfectly, but what he didn't expect was that the ones who poured out the night fragrance were our people."
The voice outside the door sounded again, telling all about Kuai Chen's whereabouts.
"Well, I understand, you can't relax in everything, go down."
Jushou's affirmative voice sounded in the room. It was the other party's idea to monopolize all the work of Dafu Yexiang, because he thought of this,
That is, if anyone wants to leave the mansion without knowing anything about ghosts and ghosts, as long as he doesn't mind the smell, then it is the safest way to go through Yexiang. That's why all Yexiang people were replaced by their own people.
"Sir, don't you need to send someone to capture Kuai Yue's people and see why Kuai Yue went to so much trouble to get people to Qingzhou?"
He was a little confused when he heard that Jushou didn't ask him to pursue the enemy.
"Ask what you should ask and don't ask what you shouldn't. Remember that you are just His Majesty's eyes. Just keep your eyes on him and don't overstep your authority. Do you understand?"
Jushou looked a little angry and whispered to the door.
"No, I understand."
As soon as he finished speaking, the leader's shadow had already appeared outside Jushou's house.
"Kuai Yue, Kuai Yue, have you figured it out or made a mistake?
I hope you will not disappoint His Majesty."
After Jushou muttered this sentence silently, he continued to read the book in his hand under the lamp.
Three days later, Liu Biao finally packed up. A carriage with fifty escorts escorted him directly out of Xindu City and headed towards Shanyang County.
After about a day of travel, a small group of soldiers and horses appeared in front of Liu Biao's chariot. There were fifty cavalrymen. They were all dressed in robes, hoods, and devil masks on their faces. They looked extremely intimidating.
.
"who."
Seeing the person in front of him, the captain of the guard army who was guarding Liu Biao drew out the steel sword from his waist. Then the soldiers around him quickly surrounded Liu Biao's carriage, and at the same time drew out the steel sword and were ready to fight at any time.
"Lord Liu Biao, Zhang Lin has been waiting for a long time again."
At this moment, Zhang Lin's voice suddenly sounded, and then he appeared from the crowd like a hungry ghost and walked slowly towards Liu Biao.
"Put down your sword and let him come."
Hearing that the other party was Zhang Lin, Liu Biao also came out of the car, looked at Zhang Lin, and couldn't help but frown.
"Sir, I have been waiting here for a long time. I have arranged food and drinks in front of you to welcome you."
Zhang Lin rode his horse to Liu Biao and saluted him.
"Let's go."
Liu Biao nodded, then got directly into the carriage, and then everyone, led by Zhang Lin, ran towards the place he had planned.
Zhang Lin had already arranged food and drinks in front of him. Liu Biao got out of the car and went to eat with Zhang Lin, but the elite guards escorting him didn't even look at him. They just ate the dry food they brought.
"Sir, why doesn't your guard eat?"
Seeing this situation, Zhang Lin was also stunned and didn't understand why the other party was like this.
To be honest, Liu Biao was a little confused by the situation. He didn't expect these people to be like this.
"Since our master entered Xindu, he was afraid that people would do harm, so he made a rule that when escorts go out, they can only eat food prepared by themselves, and they are not allowed to touch anything prepared by outsiders."
The school captain Zhou Meng saw Liu Biao's confusion and directly opened his mouth to rescue him.
"Well, be careful when going out."
Liu Biao nodded and confirmed Zhou Meng's words.
"Okay, if that's the case, let's eat."
Zhang Lin glanced at Zhou Meng and couldn't help but frown. To be honest, he did have a plan. After all, Liu Biao brought Zhu Xiren from Xindu City. It is very likely that Yuan Shu's spies will appear.
He had already drugged these people and planned to kill them all without leaving any one behind. Now that they were fine, they were not fooled, which made him scratch his head a little.
After drinking and eating, Zhang Lin looked at Liu Biao.
"Sir, I have a few private words that I would like to tell you. You might as well."
"Liu Meng, go down."
Zhou Meng also changed his name to Liu Meng because he was now Liu Biao's general.
"promise."
Zhou Meng glanced at Zhang Lin, clasped his fists and left.
"If you have anything to do, tell me."
Seeing Zhou Meng leaving, Liu Biao frowned and looked at Zhang Lin.
"Sir, we are going to do extraordinary things, so people must be 100% trustworthy. Are these people reliable?
If it doesn't work, I will do something extraordinary."
Zhang Lin's ghost-like face showed a hint of cruelty.
"These people are all my confidants, so there is no need to be so strict."
Hearing that Zhang Lin actually wanted to kill all the guards sent by Yuan Shu, Liu Biao was slightly startled and quickly explained that these people were his confidants.
"Since that's the case, I won't say anything. Come with me next, and let's go to Jingzhou together."
Since Liu Biao has already said this, Zhang Lin has nothing to say. Now that Liu Biao has come out, he still has to give him face. It's just fifty people and there won't be any big problems.
"No, I have to go to Shanyang to worship my father before going to Jingzhou, otherwise I will be an unfilial person."
However, Liu Biao shook his head. He had brought fifty people with him now. He would not know if he went directly to Jingzhou with Zhang Lin. The people arranged by Yuan Shu did not know where they were now, so he could only say that he would go to Shanyang to worship first.
Firstly, he really wants to worship his ancestors, and secondly, he also wants to wait for Yuan Shu's people to fight with him.
"Sir, you can worship your ancestors at any time. I'm afraid that Yuan Shu has deployed troops in Shanyang. Once you arrive, it will be difficult to leave. Why don't you follow me to Jingzhou now and wait until the matter is over? We have plenty of time."
Hearing Liu Biao's words, Zhang Lin shook his head. It was not the right time to go to Shanyang to worship his ancestors. After all, they had just escaped from Xindu. If they got trapped in Shanyang, it would be really difficult.
"No, I have to go to worship my ancestors. This is non-negotiable."
Liu Biao also had his own insistence. He had to go to Shanyang, and this was not negotiable.
"I'm afraid I can't tolerate this, adults."
Zhang Lin's eyes turned cold and he gestured directly to the people around him. Then there was a sound of footsteps, and nearly a thousand soldiers appeared and surrounded Liu Biao and the others.
"Zhang Lin, what do you mean, you want to coerce me?"
Looking at the soldiers and horses appearing around him, Liu Biao also had a cold expression on his face. He didn't expect that Zhang Lin would actually play this trick on him. This was also something he didn't expect.
"Sir, the situation is urgent now, I have to take this step, I hope you understand."
Zhang Lin looked at Liu Biao and couldn't help but twist his mouth, showing a trace of ridicule. If you are a human being, you are a human being. If you are not a human being, you are not a human being. Anyway, you are being manipulated by yourself now.
"Hehe, hehe, you are very good, you are very good, is this your attitude?"
Liu Biao also sneered. Now he finally saw the faces of these people clearly.
"Sir, when we get to Jingzhou, Zhang Lin is willing to die to apologize for his sins in order to repay your kindness."
Zhang Lin also knew that Liu Biao was really angry, but for the sake of the big man, he was willing to die to apologize.
Just when Liu Biao was about to commit the crime and follow Zhang Lin to Jingzhou, there was a sound of horse hooves all around, and then nearly a thousand cavalry came directly towards him with rumbling hooves.
"The whole army is on alert to protect the head of the family."
Hearing this sound, Zhou Meng drew out the steel knife from his waist and quickly surrounded Liu Biao. Zhang Lin also trembled and quickly ordered people to defend and prepare for battle.
"Master, Liu Yu is here. How dare these young men disrespect you?"
The cavalry arrived, and the leader couldn't help but sneered when he looked at the situation in front of him.
"Sir, are these your troops?"
Zhang Lin looked at these cavalrymen with a hint of horror in his eyes. Could this be Liu Biao's hidden power?
"Do you want me to go directly to Jingzhou now?"
Liu Yu's appearance made Liu Biao sigh with relief, and then he spoke coldly to Zhang Lin.
"Sir, we really can't go to Shanyang now. Going to Jingzhou is the most important thing now, so please think twice."
Now Zhang Lin had no choice. Liu Biao's men seemed to be more elite than his own soldiers. If a fight really broke out, Liu Biao would probably not be able to be retained and there would be a gap between him and Liu Biao. This would be a thankless thing.
"No, I said that going to Shanyang to worship our ancestors is the bottom line. If you agree, come with me. If you don't agree, we will part ways now. After the ancestor worship is over, I will return to Xindu and we will pretend that nothing happened.
, and I won’t mention anything.”
Liu Fang now stiffened up and spoke arrogantly.
"Then I will follow you to Shanyang."
Zhang Lin was now in the same situation as Liu Biao, caught in a dilemma. After thinking for a while, he showed a smile that was uglier than crying and agreed to go to Shanyang with Liu Biao.
"Okay, let's go."
Liu Biao nodded, got on the carriage, ignored Zhang Lin, and ran towards Shanyang under the escort of a thousand cavalry.
"Sir, what should we do?"
After Liu Biao left, Zhang Lin was confused and didn't know what to do.
"what to do?
The infantry temporarily dispersed to Jingzhou, and others told our people about the situation here, and the remaining cavalry went to Shanyang with Liu Biao and me."
What else could Zhang Lin do? He shook his head, mounted his horse, and followed Liu Biao. The remaining infantrymen looked at each other, dispersed, and ran towards Jingzhou.
Liu Biao's farce ended when a mound not far away suddenly shook. Then a man looked around and ran directly in the direction of Xindu.
Time flies by, and good news comes one after another from the Xianbei grassland. Zhao Yun and Xun You continuously transport the captured Xianbei prisoners, cattle, sheep, and horses to China. The first batch of people to leave the fortress has been arranged, and the second batch of 500,000 people to leave the fortress has also set foot.
The journey north.
Good news also came from Jia Xu's war in the Kushan Empire. After Banerbo City, the nearby Amula City was also captured by Jia Xu. More than 10,000 defenders in the city were killed. Xunmu'er City was also attacked by the army.
middle,
However, with the support of more than 10,000 soldiers and horses who fled from Banerbo City, Xunmu'er City was defended by 30,000 soldiers and horses, and it was difficult to conquer for a while.
The Kushan Empire originally increased its troops on the border to take advantage of the situation and see if there was any profit. Unexpectedly, the enemy was so fierce and directly destroyed its eastern front.
"Your Majesty, now the newly established Huaxia has occupied Banerbo City and Amula City, and Xunmu'er City on the other side is also under siege by the enemy. Does he want to start a war with us?"
