~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After Ma Han led his team for dozens of miles, news came from the White Wolf Cavalry that was broken behind, and Cao's army did not move. Logically, Ma Han could be relieved, but within a day, he was cheated by Cheng Yu several times, which made Ma Han unable to relax.
Isn’t the end of Cheng Yu’s killing situation? Ma Wu was always uneasy. Looking at the dark front and looking around him, Ma Wu felt heavy in his heart - he really needed to be careful every step of the battle with these great people in the Three Kingdoms!
At this time, the cavalry in front of him came to report: "Report to the city guard. After passing Baiziling in front, you can see Xia Pi City. Are we going to enter the city?"
At present, Xia Pi City is defended by Chen Gui and Chen Deng and his son. With the friendship between Ma Han and Chen, it is no problem to accept it. It is just that the city gate is closed early, and the city gate will not be opened at will unless it is a major event. Entering the city at this time will make the Chen family and his son very embarrassed.
Ma Han shook his head: "No need, we will camp in the south of the city and enter the city again tomorrow. Have you checked the situation in Baiziling?"
The whistleman lowered his head: "Go back to the city to guard the mountain. This ridge is steep and it is difficult to climb at night, so the arrows cannot hit the top of the mountain..."
For places along the way where the mountains and forests are dense and difficult to penetrate, diffusing arrows is to alert the snake, which is one of the means to detect obstacles.
Baiziling and Mahou have an impression of it. It is indeed very steep. Not to mention at night, it is difficult to climb even during the day. Well, it’s better to do it yourself.
As soon as the heat source scan is started, Ma Han widens his eyes - Cheng Yu. Are you finished?
The screen clearly shows that 360 meters away, a large number of dense red dots appeared on the top of the mountain at a height of 77 meters. So many people gathered in black and lit up, hiding silently on the top of the mountain. What is it not an ambush? What a good Cheng Yu, I said, this chain of arrangement is a bit stubborn, with a light head and heavy feet, and it is a little short of the top strategist - it turns out that this is here!
However, it seems that something is wrong. Why are there only five or sixty red dots? Could it be that you still expect dozens of people to ambush more than a hundred cavalrymen? Will Cheng Yu, a scheming guy, make such a low-level mistake? Or is there another mystery?
"Do you still want to play with the wooden rolling stone again?" Ma Han sneered and grinded his teeth. Suddenly, he said to the messenger, "Pull up the horses that captured Cao's army."
Cao's army, including the Xia Pi army's war horses, were all inferior horses in the eyes of Ma Han and his White Wolf Cavalry. They were only used as horses in western Liaoning, and they would not feel distressed if they were used as military rations.
Ma Han touched his chin and issued a series of instructions: "Tie a branch on the ponytail. Tie a straw man on the back of the horse. The branches and the straw man are inserted into torches. Make a few broken knives on the straw man's back. The acting must be more realistic. Remember. You must run all of you later-run fifty steps, then back and forth, and the more the movement, the better. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
The White Wolf Fierce Cavalry Warrior knew that the city guard was going to play tricks. Everyone laughed and responded with a loud bang.
Looking down from the top of the mountain, the flames were spotted. They moved rapidly, and the iron hooves roared, from far to near, and sometimes the cold weapons could be reflected.
Ma Han leaned against the side of the horse road, squinted his eyes and stared at the top of the mountain. Suddenly, a ball of fire appeared in his pupils, a sharp jumping fire. The flames came from the top of the mountain, which were ball-shaped haystacks with fire, dragging long thick smoke and threw down from the top of the mountain. When the fireball left the top of the mountain, the flames were still rushing rapidly, and the smoke was stronger than the fire. The wind helped the fire during the descending process, and the flames gradually burned. By the time they landed, they had turned into huge fireballs with flames.
Xuzhou has been drought for two months, and the trees and weeds on both sides of the mountain road are almost smoking. Just one spark will form a prairie fire. How can it withstand the temptation of these fire demons dancing?
In just half a moment, the mountain road was trapped in a sea of fire, mules and horses were neighing, and the navy was rushing, and the strong smell of roasted meat pungently penetrated the lungs.
All the white wolf cavalry were stunned. The hot wind blew on their faces and burned their beards, but everyone's back felt a layer of cold sweat.
This is the last kill in the series!
Far away at the head of the Wubi City dozens of miles away, countless Cao soldiers looked at the dark red color in the distance, which looked like a burning fire in the sky, and were all surprised and worried. From time to time, they looked back and looked back at the floating figure of the Confucian robe hidden in the dark above the gate tower.
Cheng Yu looked east leisurely, and after a long time, he sighed softly: "It's a pity that a Liaodong Tianjiao."
Yu Jin let out a heavy breath of turbid air: "It's a pity that a white wolf cavalry."
At the same time, Ma Han shook his head regretfully: "What a pity this big fire. If you use it to barbecue meat, you have to make many roasted lambs!"
...
Ten miles southwest of Xia Pi City, and on the south bank of Si Shui, a camp that can accommodate 500 people rose from the ground.
At dusk, Ma Han sent Chen Deng out of the gate and thanked Chen Deng repeatedly for the military rations and the dispatched servants who helped build the camp, but he did not comment on Chen Deng's proposal to jointly protect Xia Pi. After seeing Chen Deng off, Ma Han returned to the camp and ordered Le Jin to be brought.
Le Jin was not seriously injured, only had a fracture in his left forearm and his internal organs were shocked. He felt uncomfortable at the time, but after a day and night of rest and medication, he was fine and looked much better.
Ma Han waved his hand and asked the guard to retreat, signaling Le Jin to sit down, put his elbows horizontally on the desk, leaning forward, with a faint sense of pressure, staring at Le Jin without saying a word.
Le Jin didn't say anything, sat steadily, and after a while, he suddenly said, "Is there any wine?"
Ma Han smiled: "You have not healed your injuries, so forget it if you drink wine, drink butterfly. Come on, add butterfly!"
Le Jin drank three big bowls in a row, raised his hand to wipe away the juice at the corner of his mouth. Although it was hurt, it did not lose its heroic nature.
Ma Han suddenly said, "If I let you go, what do you think?"
Le Jin was stunned and bowed, saying, "If you are released by kindness, Jin will be inspired by the Five Insiders."
"Will you go back to Cao's camp?"
“This is nature.”
"Of course?" Ma Han looked at Le Jin in surprise, "Don't you know that you were first used as bait by Cheng Yu, then abandoned your son, and finally almost buried in the fire with our army - if Cheng Yu gave you this, you would have... "
Le Jin's muscles twitched slightly, and he drank a large bowl of butterfly, and ate the bowl hard, and breathed out a sip of turbid air: "As Duwei said, it was Cheng Yu who betrayed me, not Cao Gong. Cao Gong has the virtue of appreciation for me, and I will not let him down."
Ma Han glanced at him sideways: "A fake Sima in the army will make you sell your life? Le Wenqian, his ambition is nothing more than that."
Le Jin raised his thick eyebrows, glared at Ma Han, clenched his fists, but then he realized that the reason why he could only have one hand to clench his fists was all thanks to the person in front of him, and it was obviously not feasible to suppress people with his momentum. Le Jin took a deep breath, calmed down, and said lightly: "I know my ambitions, and there is no need to be told by others."
Ma Han looked at him with a bright look: "I know you, Le Wenqian, have great ambitions, so I will give you a chance to show your strength - Sima of the White Wolf Camp Army, how about it?"
Le Jin looked at Ma Han for a while in surprise. He was sure that the other party was not a joke, so he just said with gratitude and thanked him: "Thank you, the Duke Master, who has always respected the heroes of bravery, benevolence and righteousness, and the Duke Master deserves it. But Cao Gong treats me well. There are also brothers Yangping whom I recruited from Cao's camp, so how can I bear to abandon them? Therefore..."
Ma Han shook his head repeatedly: "Please put the matter of Cao Gong aside. I assert that your defeated new army will not be more than a hundred people. If you are finally confirmed that you are not in Cao's camp, then I guess most of the hundred people will be dispersed in the end. Your second reason is not valid."
Le Jin's eyes were lowered and silent for a while. Suddenly, his eyes opened and he said in a deep voice: "If you don't talk about Cao Gong, don't talk about brothers, just say one reason, I can't refuse to thank the Duwei for his kindness."
"you say."
"My husband lives in Yangping. If someone returns north with the commander, Cao Gong will only ask my husband to write a letter in his hand. If someone does not return, it is for unfilial piety; if someone returns, it is for disloyalty. What should I do?"
Ma Han bowed solemnly: "Wen Qian is indeed filial and righteous, so it is not everyone is Zhu Ling."
When Le Jin heard Ma Han say about Zhu Ling, he snorted lightly, and obviously he was quite disdainful of this person.
Ma Han rubbed his chin that had grown fine velvet whiskers and said slowly: "What if I personally bring Ling Zun here?"
Le Jin was shocked and looked at Ma Han in disbelief, who nodded to him affirmatively.
Le Jin's eyes were straight and he murmured, "Why, why?"
"To them, your value is just a few granaries, but to me..." Ma Han stood up, spreading his arms, and pausing, "It's this world!"
Le Jin raised his head and drank a big bowl of butterfly. The Adam's apple rolled up and down. This bowl of butterfly was sour than any previous bowl because there was an extra liquid in the slurry...
Is Lejin a talent? There is no doubt that since he is a talent, as a boss, he has to solve his worries for the talents. Moreover, Lejin's concerns are very reasonable. Don't just cultivate a famous general at that time, but he was recruited by someone with a letter. There are still examples of this in the Three Kingdoms period, such as Xu Shu. Well, it seems that it was also a good thing that Lao Cao did.
Ma Han said that he wanted to go in person was not just to win Lejin's gratitude. If he just picked up an old man, a white wolf horse would be enough. This time he had another plan to pick up Lejin's father, and he just grabbed a rabbit. However, in front of Lejin, he had to show his boss's high attitude of picking up the horse.
Ma Han believed that even though Le Jin still had some gratitude to Cao Cao, as long as he traveled thousands of miles to Yangping and brought Le’s father safely to him, it would be difficult for this brave general to not be able to return home.
After letting the guard lead the Leo who was still dizzy, Ma Han immediately took the paper and pen, wrote a letter, and summoned Han Xi, a hundred generals of the White Wolf and Fighting Cavalry.
"Tomorrow morning, you will lead 130 White Wolf Cavalry to Qu County, Donghai, and hand the letter to the head of the Mi family, and ask him to pass it to the head of the Mi family. Then, wait for Sima Zhao there." Ma Weishang handed the letter to Han Xi and said solemnly, "Before I come back, I should treat Le Jin with courtesy, but also closely monitor it. If I come back and the person is gone, don't blame me for taking your head for punishment!"
Han Xi obeyed the order with stern apology. He knew that the city guard would take action again, but he would never ask if the city guard did not say anything. He had only absolute trust in the city guard, just like all the White Wolf Fierce Knight brothers.
