The four hundred and sixtieth chapters robbed the forage
"The enemy! It's the enemy." Lu Heng lay on the ground, stunned for a moment, and shouted as if he was crazy. Just as he was about to get up from the ground, the entourage next to him hurriedly grabbed him and said loudly: "Sir
,Danger!"
As he spoke, he shouted to the soldiers around him: "What are you doing standing still? Come and protect me!" xdw8
As he shouted, the nearby soldiers raised their shields and ran over to protect Lu Heng while resisting the cavalry's crossbows. They quickly picked him up and pulled him behind the crowd.
But in just a moment, the cavalry had already charged forward. A series of muffled sounds were heard in the ears, which were the sounds of horses hitting shields, followed by screams.
Even though the soldiers used shields to defend themselves, they still could not withstand the powerful impact of the charging horses. People were knocked off their feet from the ground, flew backwards, collided with the soldiers behind them, and several rows of people fell instantly.
.
The cavalry didn't care whether you were standing or lying down. The war horses trampled people's bodies mercilessly. The entourage pulled Lu Heng and ran behind in a hurry, but their speed could not be faster than the cavalry.
War horse?
Soon, a cavalryman was chasing behind the two of them.
The entourage pushed Lu Heng away. At the same time, he drew out his sword and thrust it outward. With a clang, the iron spear that was pierced was bounced away. Then, he jumped up, was in the air, and swept out with his sword.
Sha! The blade of the sword sliced open the side of the cavalryman's neck. The latter, riding on his horse, ran a few steps forward, staggered and fell down.
Seeing that one of his comrades was killed by the enemy, he immediately rushed over with several more cavalrymen. The iron spears in the hands of the cavalrymen shone with a cold light, drew a silver line in the air, and went straight to stab the companions' vitals.
The follower first swung his sword outwards twice to ward off the iron swords that were stabbing him from the left and right, and then he swiveled around to let go of the oncoming war horses.
When the war horse was about to run past him, he shouted loudly and hit the horse hard with his shoulder.
Boom! Both men and horses fell to the ground. Before the fallen cavalry could get up from the ground, he stepped forward and stabbed the cavalry through the chest with a sword.
This follower was originally from the martial arts world. He was considered a number one figure in the martial arts world here in Hebei. He had superb swordsmanship and was rarely an opponent.
He held Lu Heng's sword to protect him. Not long after, several cavalrymen died under his sword. Just when his followers were fighting hard to cover Lu Heng's escape, they suddenly saw a golden-helmeted general coming toward him.
Rushing straight over.
The follower didn't think much and faced him with his sword.
The golden-armored general rode up to him, held a golden halberd, pointed it at the attendant's chest, and stabbed it with the halberd. The attendant jumped up, swung his sword and slashed across the golden-armored general's neck.
The latter was not an ordinary cavalry soldier. When he saw this, he calmly took back his halberd. Hearing a crisp clang, the sword blade struck the halberd shaft, causing a cloud of sparks to appear.
Before the opponent's body could hit the ground, the golden-armored general pushed the painting pole and golden halberd outward, causing the follower's body to fly backwards in the air. With a pop, he fell three meters away.
The golden-armored general galloped his horse forward, and from a high position, he thrust his halberd at him. The follower broke out in cold sweat and hurriedly rolled to the side. With a click, the tip of the halberd pierced the ground, and half of the halberd's head was buried in the soil.
A follower carp jumped up from the ground, but as soon as he stood up, the golden-armored general suddenly turned his horse's head and pulled the reins. The war horse neighed, raised its two front hooves high, and moved forward.
Continuous pedaling.
His attention was focused on the opponent's golden halberd. He did not expect that the war horse under the opponent's crotch could also participate in the battle. The entourage was not prepared and was caught off guard, and was kicked hard in the chest by the two front hooves of the war horse.
He groaned, leaned back, and took a few steps back. His throat felt sweet, and a hot liquid surged from his body into his throat.
He gritted his teeth and swallowed the old blood alive, but the golden-armored general's halberd swept towards him again.
With no time to dodge, the follower could only bite the bullet and hold the sword in both hands to catch the opponent's edge.
Bang! Click! At the moment when the golden halberd collided with the sword, the sword in the entourage's hand flew out. He realized that something was wrong, but if he wanted to respond again, where would he have a chance?
I saw the golden halberd painted with a painted stick, its power unabated, slashing across the entourage's waist.
After the crisp sound, I looked at the follower again. The part below the waist was still standing on the ground, but the part above the waist had flown far away. The golden armored general's powerful and heavy halberd directly split him into two pieces.
.
This golden-armored general is none other than Geng Geng Bozhao.
Seeing his most powerful follower die under the opponent's golden halberd, Lu Heng was so frightened that his hair almost stood on end.
He screamed, turned around and ran away. He only ran seven or eight steps when he heard the rapid sound of horse hooves coming from his side.
Lu Heng turned around subconsciously and saw a general with a silver helmet rushing towards him. In his hand, he also held a silver halberd. This man was the number one under Liu Xiu's command.
The God of Death, Wu Ziyan of Wu Han Dynasty.
He had never seen Wu Han before, and naturally he didn't know him, but when he saw the murderous look on his face, Lu Heng's heart suddenly went cold. His legs felt like they were filled with lead, and they didn't obey his orders at all.
His knees weakened, he knelt on the ground with a thud, and shouted in a trembling voice: "Don't kill me, I am the Prime Minister..."
Before he could finish his words, Wu Han had already galloped past him. Lu Heng thought he had saved his life and just breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly, he felt like the world was spinning.
The surrounding soldiers all turned pale with fright and screamed in surprise.
It turned out that Lu Heng's body was still kneeling on the ground, but the head on his neck fell to the ground from his shoulders and rolled far away. The expression on his severed head was still blank.
Geng, who often cooperates with Wu Han, has long been accustomed to Wu Han's murderous nature. Lu Heng had obviously knelt down to surrender, but Wu Han still beheaded him mercilessly. Geng was not surprised at all.
.
Wu Han, who killed Lu Heng with a halberd, did not pause for a moment, and did not even look at the corpse on the ground. As if he was on a mission, he kept urging his horse forward to chase down the enemy soldiers.
Wherever he passed, there were corpses everywhere.
Facing Youzhou's sudden cavalry led by Wu Han and Geng, the soldiers of Wang Lang's army who were transporting grain were unable to fight back and were killed until they were so scared that they fled in all directions.
Just as there are generals, there are also subordinates. After defeating Wang Lang's army, the Shanggu cavalry stopped one after another, followed Geng, and checked the food on the carriage.
The Yuyang cavalry followed Wu Han, chasing and killing Wang Lang's soldiers who had fled, forcing the deserters to cry for their fathers and mothers, only hating their parents for giving birth to two legs for them.
Wang Liang, who followed Wu Han and Geng to the battle, rode his horse around in front of and behind the grain transport team. When he came back, he saw Geng and said excitedly with a smile: "General Geng, we have made a profit this time. I think we have made a profit."
The food transported by Wang Lang's army this time must be at least twenty to thirty thousand dan!"
Geng young man's face also showed joy. He hung the golden halberd on the victory hook of the war horse, stroking his palms and said: "With the food brought by Mr. He, plus this batch of looted food, our army's food and grass can be considered complete."
No more worries!”
Wang Liang nodded repeatedly, his mouth closed with joy, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "My lord, you are really a lucky star! Seeing that all the soldiers in the army were about to fall into a desperate situation, things happened to turn around, turning danger into disaster, and turning danger into disaster!"
Geng also felt the same and said: "It is a blessing for us to be able to follow my lord!"
After speaking, he suppressed his smile and said seriously: "It is not suitable to stay in this land of right and wrong for a long time. We have to escort the food and grass back to the camp quickly!" As he spoke, he looked around, looked around, and said suspiciously: "Where is General Wu?
?”
Wang Liang smiled bitterly and said: "I must be chasing the enemy soldiers! General Geng, I'll go find General Wu and come back!" As he spoke, Wang Liang turned his horse and ran towards the wild fields by the roadside.
Compared with others, Wang Liang has a closer relationship with Wu Han. They were both magistrates of Yuyang County before, and later they led the Yuyang Army together to defect to Liu Xiu. Naturally, their relationship was very close.
Familiarity.
Wang Liang inquired about several Yuyang cavalry soldiers before finally finding Wu Han. At this time, Wu Han had chased the enemy for five or six miles.
Under Wang Liang's persuasion, Wu Han finally stopped chasing the remaining deserters and led his cavalry back.
After reuniting with Geng, the two led their troops and happily escorted 30,000 shi of grain back to their camp.
Thirty thousand shi of grain were looted by the enemy, and Lu Heng, who was responsible for escorting the grain, was killed, and most of the thousands of soldiers were lost. When the news was spread back to Handan, Wang Lang almost fainted from anger on the spot.
He clenched his fists, smashed the table, and roared with a red face: "Trash! They are just a bunch of trash!"
Liu Lin, who was in the main hall, looked extremely ugly. Lu Heng was his after all, and all the 30,000 shi of food that Lu Heng was responsible for escorting had been snatched away by Liu Xiu. His responsibility was not small.
Liu Jie glanced at Liu Lin, who had a gloomy face, and said to Wang Lang: "Your Majesty, the military rations have been robbed, and the Grand Sima and the General are in urgent need of food and grass. Your Majesty should arrange manpower as soon as possible to transport another batch of grain.
!”
Wang Lang frowned. He glanced at Liu Lin subconsciously, and saw that Liu Lin's face was so gloomy that it was almost dripping with tears. He then looked at the other people. The ministers in the hall looked at each other, and finally lowered their heads.
Now everyone can see that the robbery of military rations this time is no accident, but Liu Xiu's side has specially strengthened its vigilance.
This time Lu Heng was killed while transporting military rations. I'm afraid it wouldn't be much better if he went there by himself. This was a life-threatening job.
Among the ministers in the palace, no one spoke, and no one took the initiative to ask for a tassel. Wang Lang looked around and saw that no one asked for a tassel, so he could only take the initiative and said, "Which beloved minister is willing to transport military rations to Da Sima's camp?"
There was silence in the hall, and you could hear a needle drop. Seeing this, Wang Lang asked again angrily: "Which of your beloved ministers is willing to transport grain and grass to Da Sima's military camp?"
Everyone seemed to have their acupuncture points tapped, but no one spoke. Wang Lang slammed the table and asked: "Are you all frightened by Liu Xiu?"
Silence! There was a deathly silence in the hall. The heads of the ministers hung lower, and some people were still muttering silently in their hearts, you are capable, and you are not afraid of Liu Xiu, then you should go!
Wang Lang asked several questions in succession, but the ministers present remained silent. Wang Lang was also furious, and directly pointed at Zuo Fengyi Yanming among the ministers, and said: "Yan Aiqing, you will be responsible for escorting the food and grass this time.
!”
Zuo Fengyi is the official name. Jing Zhaoyin, Zuo Fengyi, and You Fufeng are three local administrative officials in the capital area, collectively known as Sanfu, also known as Sanqin. After Wang Lang became emperor, in his Handan court
I also created a third assistant, neither fish nor fowl.
Jing Zhaoyin is the official in charge of the Chang'an area. In modern terms, he is the mayor of the capital. Zuo Fengyi is the official in charge of Fengyi County to the north of Chang'an, and Right Fufeng is the official in charge of Fufeng County to the west of Chang'an.
The two official names Zuo Fengyi and You Fufeng were derived from Feng Yi County and Fufeng County.
But Wang Lang proclaimed himself emperor in Handan, and he couldn't even compete with Chang'an, so where was Fengyi on the left and Fufeng on the right?
He set up these two official positions just to have the third assistant of the capital in his court, so that his Handan court would look more formal.
