Chapter 93: There are several intersections between light and dark
Han Xu was walking on the street. In addition to the young man's entourage, there were two more soldiers.
Han Xu is now a bright light in the city. Wherever he appears, he will immediately attract people. Seeing the two extra soldiers and Han Xu returning the horses behind him in full gear, the people suddenly became uneasy.
"Doctor Han want to leave?" Everyone asked.
Han Xu introduced himself not only as an admonishing doctor, but also as a governor to help manage Jiannan Road, so he just passed by Yingchen.
"I'm not leaving." Han Xu explained to the people, "I'm going to invite soldiers and horses to protect Yingchen together."
This explanation made the people even more uneasy. It was not easy to recruit soldiers and horses now.
Seeing that the people were frightened and restless, the prefect who saw him off was helpless. He had previously suggested in the government office that Han Xu should quietly leave the city, and not let the people know that he was leaving, let alone tell them what to do, so as not to make the people uneasy.
But Han Xu didn't listen.
"Blocking the people's ears and covering their eyes at this time will make them uneasy." He said, "They can only feel at ease knowing the movements of their own officers, not to mention that they are going to invite troops."
Inviting soldiers is a good thing, it can indeed appease people's hearts. The prefect frowned and asked: "What if we can't invite them?"
On the contrary, the people will be frightened, and the originally gathered momentum will collapse.
Han Xu stood tall and spoke loudly: "Daxia has reached its most critical moment. I believe that there are countless famous generals who are willing to put down the rebellion, stabilize the country, and make immortal contributions, so that Daxia can return to its prosperous age."
When this middle-aged scribe, who was wearing no armor and no sword hanging from his waist, said these words, many officials in the government couldn't help but their eyes lit up. They had always been in the prosperous age of Great Xia, but how the prosperous age came about had nothing to do with them. Now the world is suddenly in chaos.
, if we create another prosperous age, their achievements will be mentioned in the history books.
The prefect was persuaded and no longer objected: "Then bring more troops and horses."
Han Xu laughed: "I'm going to invite troops, how can I lead them?"
Well, the literati has a heart of blood and iron bones, and is not afraid of life and death with thousands of troops. What's more, what he said is right. It only seems sincere to go to recruit soldiers alone. The prefect said no more and just muttered that he hoped everything would go well.
It will definitely go well. The two officials of the government, Biejia and Sima, who were standing behind the prefect, looked very happy.
They looked at each other and saw the smiles in their eyes. Of course they could create a prosperous age again, but the emperor was dead, and Daxia's soldiers and horses were vulnerable to the rebels in Ankang Mountain. They expected the emperor's two sons to create a prosperous age again, but also
It would be more realistic to look forward to Ankang Mountain.
The cowardly and weak prefect was originally nothing to be afraid of, and he could lead the entire Yingchen Mansion to surrender with just one persuasion. However, Han Xu came and confused the prefect and the people with just a few words, and the city suddenly became as tight as a freshly poured bucket.
The emperor died, and everyone in the capital fled. The rebels in Liangcheng continued to increase, and the number of surrenders in other places also increased. There was news that Ankang Mountain was about to reach Xuanwu Road, and then go straight to the capital from here, waiting for the Ankang Mountain army to arrive.
, if they surrender again, they will be intimidated by the power, but it is not as good as taking the initiative to open the way for Governor An Da now.
Yu Fei was also in trouble. He said he wanted to recapture Liangcheng, but he camped in Nishui Valley, which was the fortress for entering Beijing. He clearly wanted to block the road to Ankang Mountain.
Two troubles, then let these two troubles fight each other.
Biejia and Sima looked back and once again watched Han Xu and others who were walking out of the city and mounting their horses. Their eyes were not on Han Xu, but on the thin, dark soldier next to Han Xu.
Realizing the sight, the thin, dark soldier turned around, held the knife tightly in front of him, and smiled resolutely.
...
...
"Did those two guys from Yingchen City really say that?"
He Gan was lying in the lobby of Liangcheng Taoist Mansion. The large chair where the Xuanwu Dao Jiedushi originally sat was smashed and burned by him. He spread a mat on the ground and wore armor to sit on it, which was convenient and not hot.
At this time, he held his head with his hands and closed his eyes, listening to the words of several subordinate generals.
"Yes, those two people said they had a way to kill Yu Fei." A general said, "Let us lead our troops forward and defeat him in one fell swoop."
He Gan sat up and lowered his hands to reveal a bandaged eye. When he heard Yu Fei's name, his eye began to hurt.
He has been very relaxed since he entered Xuanwu Dao. The soldiers and horses fled from the government and surrendered. He successfully occupied the Taoist mansion. After sitting in the Taoist mansion, he didn't even have to go out to fight. The soldiers and horses of the state capital They would come over and surrender on their own, or run away on their own, or fight each other for thieves, or run away from Xuanwu Dao and go somewhere unknown.
If this continues, by the time most of the governor's troops arrive, Xuanwu Dao will be like a deserted place.
But things suddenly went wrong again. First, Han Xu came to Yingchen, an important town about the same size as Liangcheng, and then Nishui Valley was occupied by Yu Fei.
He Gan personally led his troops to surround and kill Yu Fei. Unexpectedly, this Fengwei army was really majestic. Yu Fei even split a path among his troops and shot him in the eye with an arrow.
"But this common man." He stretched out his hand to press his aching eyes and cursed through gritted teeth. "He is sinister, vicious, suspicious and has some skills. Who can kill him easily? Those two dog officials came to coax me. "
"Han Xu." A civil servant said this name. He was a bit weak among the majestic officers and generals in armor, and whispered a few words to He Ganfu.
One of He Gan's eyes lit up, he clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Okay, okay, it's really wonderful." He pointed at the clerk again, seeming to admire and fear, "You guys without knives are also ruthless. "
The civil servant leaned over and saluted with a smile: "I would like to be driven by the governor and your lord."
He Gan stood up from the mat, his armor and sword clattering: "You can take a rest now, and I will go and cut off Yu Fei's head."
The generals in the hall cheered in unison.
.....
.....
Nishui Valley is not too close. When Han Xu approached on horseback, it was already dark. Although the road was desolate, he did not encounter any rebels.
Looking at the undulating valley in front of me like a river, I couldn't see the soldiers and horses hidden in the night. I looked a little worried: "This place is easy to defend but difficult to attack."
Han Xu held the reins and said, "You knights are also timid and fearful?"
These words made the ranger feel ashamed, and Zhongli straightened his back: "It's just a death."
Han Xu smiled: "We are not here to seek death, so there is no need to be so nervous." After that, he ran towards the valley first.
Under the cover of night, Nakazato frowned. No one asked for death, but he was afraid that others would want him to die. With the death of the emperor, the world and people's hearts became strange.
Looking at Han Xu running forward, Zhongli once again thought about cutting off his head.
His mission was to track Han Xu. He always thought that the eldest lady wanted to get rid of Han Xu, so that it would not affect the eldest son's control of Jiannan Road.
Previously, the emperor was still there and the court was stable. Killing Han Xu would cause trouble, and killing Han Xu would also send others to Jiannan Road, so we couldn't do it easily.
But it's different now. The emperor is dead, the court is in chaos, Han Xu died on the road and no one paid attention, and the court doesn't bother to send more officials to Jiannan Road.
Because of the sudden rebellion in Ankang Mountain, his news from Jiannan Road was cut off. He contacted Yuanji only after arriving in Yingchen. When he sent the message, he also reminded that he could take action now, but Yuanji had not responded yet and had not received accurate instructions from the eldest lady.
Before, he couldn't take action.
As soon as Zhongli patted the horse's head, the horse immediately galloped to catch up with Han Xu and followed him neither far nor close, never leaving.
