The man living in the cave in this well is named Xubu Oganchi, and he is the clan brother of Xubu Cheyou.
In April, Chen Chong and Yu Fuluo divided their armies into two groups. Chen Chong attacked Shangjun and Yufuluo attacked Dingxiang County. At that time, Xubu Oganchi was in Zhongling, organizing the remaining tribesmen to make bows and arrows day and night. Unexpectedly, King Xiutu Huli
They were defeated and fled so quickly. As soon as the tribesmen learned the news, Yuvluo's army followed closely in the evening.
When King Zuo Xian entered the city with his army, they did not plunder property or kill the people. He only sent soldiers to make announcements back and forth in the city, saying that if anyone in the clan participated in the rebellion, he should go with the army to Taiyuan to persuade the rebels to surrender, except Xu Bu, Cheyou and others.
If the culprit is not the culprit, but he and his subordinates are not to blame, the imperial court will exempt him from military service after the war and will not impose any punishment.
With such a stance, Yufuluo had the reputation of King Zuoxian's righteousness, and the tribes in Dingxiang no longer had any intention of resisting. Yufuluo was able to successfully take over Dingxiang and wipe out Xu Bucheyou's family in one fell swoop.
At that time, Ogunchi was trying to lead a resistance outside the city, but he was outnumbered and was about to collapse. He pretended to be dead among his troops and escaped. At this time, the Xiongnu had no intention of decapitating him and asked for credit, so they let him escape. But after that, he
With no way to go, he thought of his clan brother's friendship with King Youxian, so he fled to Mayi alone.
Zai Si was shocked by his arrival and analyzed the situation and said: "My uncle has an extreme personality, is greedy for money and lust, and has only mediocre intelligence and skills. He is really not the choice of a man. The plan that can come up now must be Xihe Chen Chong's strategy. This plan is a
If we go out, Shanyu will lose all the people's hearts, and the Taiyuan incident will probably fail."
As Zai Xi said, the Xiongnu rebels collapsed without a fight, and the Xubu, Cheyou and other tribes were annihilated. Only Oganchi was spared because Zai Xi hid himself. However, the new Chanyu set up additional eyes and ears in Mayi City.
, Zai Si had no choice but to send Ogunchi back to the cave here, and hired a mute slave to serve Ogonchi every day.
Now that the two have been apart for several months, Zai Si saw O Gangchi again and almost didn't recognize him.
The original Organ Ruler was a famous warrior of the Xubu tribe. He shot wolves and hunted tigers in Mobei all year round. His tendons looked like black iron in the sun, and he was called an iron warrior by the tribe.
A few months passed, and Ou Ganchi stayed in this dry well cave, without seeing the sun all day long. Only the eastern corner of the cave showed some afterglow from the mountain wall. When Zai Si saw him again, his complexion was as pale as topaz. In the past,
The mountain-like body is now as thin as a lone pine, only a pair of eyes are getting sharper, and the pupils release a burning light in the darkness.
After Zai Si told him about the current situation and the plan to assassinate Humphrey, he did not answer immediately. Instead, he thought about it and then said slowly: "Your plan is not comprehensive."
As soon as he said this, he already meant to assassinate him. Zai Si was overjoyed and said with a smile: "I was about to discuss it with you."
Zai Chi chose Ogonchi as the assassin because he not only had excellent eyesight and strength, but also because he was meticulous in doing things and made meticulous planning before every action.
Every year when Yufuluo led his people on hunting expeditions, he followed Xubu Cheyou to participate in them. The topography of Huze was imprinted in his mind, so he asked Zaisu about the time of Yufuluo's hunting this year and calculated the potential shooters.
Killing distance and escape route.
There is a wooden bridge in the east corner of Huze. The wooden bridge is extremely narrow and can only allow horses to pass. Movement on the bridge is slow and it is difficult to turn horses around. It is the best shooting position. Moreover, there are dozens of feet on the south side of the wooden bridge.
Reeds can not only hide people, but also horses, which provides great convenience for escape.
After discussing with Zai Si, Ou Ganchi decided to go to Huze overnight and lurk until early morning. When Yuvluo and his party came onto the bridge, he would release an arrow in the reeds on the south side. This way, he would have the highest chance of success. p>
As for the arrows, he also prepared them carefully. The weather is getting colder today, so Humphrey will definitely put on winter clothes, a fur hat on his head, and a fur coat. There won't be much heavy armor underneath, but there will definitely be a layer of thick cowhide to protect the chest and abdomen.
, to prevent tigers from being injured by their claws when hunting.
If the distance is close enough, it is best to use a shovel arrow or a heavy arrow. If an arrow is hit, it will inevitably cause broken bones and severely damage internal organs. Once the arrow is hit, it is extremely difficult to save. However, the distance to assassinate the shooter cannot be too close, and the arrow
If it is too heavy, it is easy for the arrow to miss its center.
So they switched to armor-piercing arrows with pointed goose feathers, and the arrows had very small barbs. The arrows were sprinkled with snake venom. Once the arrows were inserted, it would be difficult to pull them out. Even if Huvroud couldn't
If you die on the spot, you won’t survive for three days.
It's just that Ogunchi rested in the cave for too long and could no longer fire the three-stone bow as before. Fortunately, Zai Si had already considered it for him and spent a lot of money to buy two hundred-step crossbows from the black market in Hebei, just like a young child.
Big and small, I went out and tried shooting a few times with a ruler, and it was indeed within a hundred steps, and every shot was sure to hit.
In addition, Ogonchi also needs an assistant. He has too many equipment and luggage, so he needs someone to take care of him in order to carry out the assassination quickly and steadily. Naturally, Zai Shi has already prepared for the candidate. He had studied Sinology before.
Following the example of the Four Princes of the Warring States Period, there were dozens of knights from Jizhou. One of them was named Zhao Lu, who was the best in martial arts. Zai Si promised to give him fifty gold as a gift, and even if he failed, he would continue to support him.
His wife and children.
At this point in the preparation, Zai Si felt that the plan was impeccable, so he asked Ao Ganchi and Zhao Lu to continue waiting for news in the secret room of Zhongling, while he was ready to notify Liu Bei as promised to discuss the response.
He trekked all the way to Jinyang and entered the prefect's mansion to ask for an audience with Liu Bei, but in vain.
The chief secretary Jian Yong told him: Zhonglang general Gongsun Zan defeated the traitor Zhang Chun in Guzhu City in May. Zhang Chun was temporarily defeated, and the east road was cut off and he could only flee in the opposite direction to the west. As a result, Gongsun Zan pursued him too fast and ended up in Baitan Mountain.
It has been more than a hundred days since I was besieged by Zhang Chun.
After the imperial court received the news, it immediately ordered Liu Bei to lead the troops to rescue the siege. Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan studied under Lu Zhi. They were good friends and classmates, so the rescue was obligatory. They were preparing for war and had already led the troops to go out the day before yesterday.
, waiting for him to return will have to be December at the earliest.
In December, Yuvluo had returned from a hunting trip. If he wanted to encounter such a good opportunity again, he would have to wait until next year. Jian Yong saw the worries in his heart and warned him: "Don't force big things. Since you can't succeed, it's better to do it."
Tigers crouch in Asakusa, waiting for the wind to blow."

Zai Si had no choice but to return to Mayi and inform Huchuquan of the matter.
Hu Chuquan was also quite upset after hearing this, and Zai Si asked: "Without General Liu's support, would my father still be willing to do this?"
Huchuquan pondered for a moment. He turned to look around his room, and thought of the major tribes that were sold as slaves. He closed his eyes, and what he thought of was the blood dripping all over Huliba's body. His skin and flesh looked like a dead fish with its scales scraped off.
, but his tongue was cut off and his mouth was blocked, so he could not speak a word.
With a chill on his neck, Hu Chuquan turned around and said to his youngest son: "The matter has come to this, even if there is no external help, we should try our best to do it. No matter how hard it is, we will live or die, and if the man dies, he will die!"
Zai Si immediately returned to Zhongling and said to Xubu Oganchi and Zhao Lu, "I'll leave everything to you."
Huchuquan had already received the news, so he told Aizi that Yuvluo had sent envoys to invite the kings to go north for hunting this year, and the time was set for the sixth day of November. The day for the assassin's departure was also set accordingly. p>
After setting the date, Xu Bu made up his mind and meditated in the secret room every day to figure out the details of the assassination. Zhao Lu spent the whole day feasting on fine food and wine, having carnivals with prostitutes, and was content with worldly pleasures.
It was late at night before leaving. Xubu Wuguanchi wrapped his head in black cloth and his face in green silk, leaving only his eyes exposed. He wore a corseted military uniform lined with sheepskin and an agate trousers.
Necklace, he hid the agate in his private clothes. That necklace was his wife's jewelry.
Zhao Lu also wrapped his face with a cloth towel. He loaded the two hundred-step crossbows onto the horse. After wrapping them in silk cloth, he took a paring knife and inserted it into the silk cloth. He also carried an ox-horn bow on his back, and with ten dozen
There is a bow and arrow, and the barbed bow and arrow used for assassination are hidden in the package on the back of Oganchi.
Naturally, it was impossible to light a fire in an ambush, so the two of them only brought water bags and dry food, leaving behind all the flint and tinder.
Before leaving, Zai Si handed the two of them a short knife again. He said: "This is a dangerous place. If you are not caught alive, there will be endless troubles. If you don't want to hurt innocent people, please make your own decision.
Let’s give these two knives to you for personal use!”
Ogunchi took the knife and said slowly: "Don't worry, when I go, either Yufuluo will die or I will die. I won't cause any trouble to King Youxian."
He added: "Since the big change at the beginning of the year, I have been sitting in a dry well for several months, sitting between bonfires day and night, and I have long realized that I have nothing to worry about in this life, only the name of my clan has been insulted, and the great revenge has not been avenged, so I dare not
It's just death. Now I'll leave you overnight. No matter whether this happens or not, we will never see you again. Thank you King Youxian for working for me these days."
When they came out of the well, Zhao Lu walked behind and secretly asked Zai Si, "This man is very popular, but I don't know what his methods are."
Zai Si comforted him and said: "There is absolutely no problem. I have been a good person since I was a child. I can say that I have witnessed all his methods with my own eyes."
When he arrived at the deserted village, he handed over his hands to the two of them and said, "My father and I are entrusted with our lives and fortunes."
Both of them were wearing pitch black cloaks, blending seamlessly with the night. Xubu held the horse's head and said, "Just do your best."
After that, the two got on their horses and disappeared into the vast night.
