Chapter 252 Civil strife (Part 1)

How many hours delayed

The heavy rain crackled down, and a thunder blew down on the top.

The "crackling" autumn rain hit people's faces, causing pain. Xu Wenhui, who was protected by his personal soldiers, was running in a panic in the rain, in a mess.

Heavy rain continued, and at this time there were still three thousand personal soldiers, all of whom were cavalry, with obvious goals, but the rain was getting heavier and heavier. In the heavy rain, the sight was less than ten meters away, and it was a rare opportunity to be self-sufficiency.

The closest one is Baidong County, but this cavalry did not even have the courage to go to Baidong County. They ran all the way and headed far away - Baidong County was too close to the battlefield.

After running in the rain for two hours, everyone was beaten by the autumn rain and their faces turned pale, and people were behind from time to time.

"Your Majesty, the rain is getting heavy, I guess the Chu army will not chase here!" A flash of lightning fell, and the earth was pale. Military advisor Han Shu approached Xu Wenhui and shouted: "Your Majesty, you can't run anymore. The place not exceeding thirty miles ahead is Yankou County, and the place guarded by our army. Let's go to shelter from the rain and rest!"

At this time, Xu Wenhui was already wet and had a lot of water, his limbs were stiff and he couldn't move. He was trekking on horses, cold and hungry, and he couldn't help but fight coldly. Hearing this remark, he had to nod.

This cavalry ran towards the county town.

At dusk, the rain stopped and there was a short sunset, but there was not much time, and the sky became dark and the autumn wind blew.

"Your Majesty, please hold on! As long as you arrive at the county town, you can rest!" Seeing Xu Wenhui's face turned pale, he personally led Cao Cheng forward and said.

However, as the cold wind blew through this journey, his voice seemed pale and powerless.

"General Cao doesn't have to worry... I can hold on!" Xu Wenhui said, gritting his teeth tightly and rode his horse forward.

However, although the rain stopped, the person who was soaked all over was blown by the autumn wind, and his body was cold.

Xu Wenhui was born into a salt dealer and was not afraid of getting wet in the rain, but once and for the time, he became a general, especially when he was called queen, with rich clothes and beautiful women, which was already different from the past.

And for more than ten years of military career, this is the first time such a blow.

Xu Wenhui never thought that the army he had run for many years would be defeated under one attack and fled all the way, really like a stray dog. It was really a terrible sight!

At this moment, I was angry, and I was wet from the rain again, galloping all the way, my body was already trembling with cold, my lips were blue, and my internal organs were churning. After answering, I gritted my teeth and moved forward hard, and suddenly I felt a dizzy turn.

Although Han Shu was rushing to the road, he kept paying attention to his lord's situation. When he saw that his lord's face was wrong, he was shocked!

"Stop for now!" Han Shu waved his hand behind him and drank.

At the same time, Cao Cheng saw something wrong and called out loudly: "Master!"

Xu Wenhui's eyes turned dark at this time and he almost fell under the horse. However, he still had self-control and held back and tied the reins of the horse. After a while, the horse he was riding stopped.

As soon as the horse stopped, Xu Wenhui, who was sitting on the horse, could no longer hold on. He tilted his body and fell off his horse with a "thump".

"Your Majesty!" Cao Cheng was anxious now, turned over and dismounted, and helped Xu Wenhui up.

"Your Majesty, are you okay?" Cao Cheng asked when he saw Xu Wen open his eyes faintly.

"Oh, it's okay!" Xu Wenhui stood up with Cao Cheng's support, with an ugly face: "This is not a place to stay for a long time, it's more important to rush the road earlier."

"Your body, your body..."

"I'm still on the horse, why don't I help me get on the horse!" Xu Wenhui once again showed his toughness when he was a salt dealer. Even though he was exhausted and caught a cold, he still forced himself to get on the horse again.

Xu Wenhui understood very well that he really fell down here, for fear that the disintegrating human heart would collapse immediately.

Cao Cheng and Han Shu were Xu Wenhui's confidants. When they saw the appearance of the king, they felt a little sad. They knew that this place could not be kept for a long time, so they hurriedly helped Xu Wenhui get on the horse.

Han Shu looked at it and said, "Your Majesty, you have only been ten miles to the county town. The guards of the county town are our generals. You will hold on for a moment and it will be time."

"Yankou County..." Xu Wenhui reluctantly supported him, frowned and thought for a while. He had some impression of the county magistrate here, and was the one who promoted him and was considered a confidant of the Xu family.

When you arrive at the county town, you can breathe a sigh of relief and collect the defeated troops.

Even if the Chu army advances quickly, he can still leave the whole team again and return to his base camp.

Thinking of this, Xu Wenhui said with a voice: "It is not advisable to stay here for a long time. Let's talk about it if you enter the county town!"

As he said that, he glanced at it.

Originally, there were three thousand riders coming out and galloping along the way. When I swept it, I was afraid there were only two thousand riders.

I don’t know if it was the team that fell or someone saw that the situation was not good, so he took the opportunity to escape halfway. However, at this time, it was not the time to worry about it, so he barely issued the order, and the team held on and continued to run.

After rushing for a while, a county town finally appeared in front of me.

Of course, this county town is incomparable to the county town, but at this time, this county town was like a piece of wood caught by the drowning man. When Xu Wenhui saw the Wei army flag floating on the city, he felt relieved.

"Your Majesty, you have arrived at the county town. Should you come forward and call the door?" said a relative.

Xu Wenhui came to his senses. At this moment, the two thousand cavalry had arrived at the city. Some people in the county town noticed it and suddenly felt a commotion.

"Let them open the city gate." Xu Wenhui nodded and said.

At this time, I was very tired and urgently needed to find a place to rest and reorganize my troops to resist the Chu army.

As long as he is given a chance to rest, he will naturally not be so embarrassed.

Xu Wenhui issued an order, and someone came forward to call the door.

At this time, Zhong Yu, the county magistrate in Yankou County, followed Xu Wenhui for twenty years and was considered an old minister. He was fifty years old and had known the news that the Chu and Wei armies fought in neighboring counties, and they did not expect that the Wei army would arrive at their city today.

Thinking of this, Zhong Yu personally arrived on the city.

Just now it was night, the moonlight rose, the sky cleared, the light was clear, and there were torches on the city.

Just when he looked down, he was shocked and didn't even care about questions. He quickly ordered his side and said, "Hurry open the city gate!"

Then he went out of the city to greet him in person.

As soon as Zhong Yu left the city, he stepped forward a few steps forward and saw clearly that it was the King of Wei. His heart was jumping, but he did not dare to show his face. He rushed forward: "I pay homage to the king."

Military advisor Han Shu scolded: "Have you ever seen the king tired? Why don't you welcome him?"

"Yes!" Zhong Yu responded quickly, and quickly opened the city gate, allowing King Wei to ride two thousand horses into the county town.

After entering, the city gate was confined again and the suspension bridge was suspended high.

Listening to the sound of the city gate closing behind, Xu Wenhui's heart fell into his stomach. He was shocked, angry, afraid and hated for a day. He had long been exhausted and even hungry inside.

Zhong Yu had some eyesight and saw the embarrassment of the group of people, so he directly sent the King of Wei into the county government.

The two thousand cavalrymen who followed King Xu Wenhui of Wei into the city were placed in a camp not far from the county government, preparing meals and entertainment.

As soon as Xu Wenhui entered the county government, he was dizzy and staggered, and fell to the ground.

Zhong Yu, Han Shu and several relatives exclaimed and surrounded him.

"Master!"

Xu Wenhui's eyes were closed and he was unconscious, and he was suddenly panicked.

Han Shu gritted his teeth and said, "You haven't helped the king in, and you're not calling a doctor!"

Zhong Yu hurriedly shouted, and everyone helped Xu Wenhui into a room. At this time, someone immediately took off Xu Wenhui's clothes and put him on a bed.

I quickly brought the brazier and the heating filled the room.

At this time, Xu Wenhui woke up.

Zhong Yu said, "Your Majesty, hot water is here. You wipe it off, change your clothes and cover it with a quilt."

For a moment, someone wiped his body, changed his clothes, and slept inside. After a while, someone came to serve him with porridge. Xu Wenhui drank it and finally recovered.

A doctor came to serve him again. After seeing him, he took his pulse again, bowed and said, "Your Majesty is fine. Just sweat all over your body with one dose of medicine, it doesn't matter!"

As he said that, he came to the outside room and wrote a prescription, so naturally someone boiled medicine.

Xu Wenhui felt relieved at this time, so he drank a cup of hot tea in front of him and let out a long breath. Thinking of his situation, his face turned pale again.

Xu Wenhui was not loved by his father since childhood. He had brothers and several younger brothers under him, but he was not valued at home.

Xu Wenhui was not the smartest and capable person. He was young and went out to make a living by selling salt.

As the world trains people, Xu Wenhui soon matures and has some capacity to gain power. He gradually gathers his own power and makes friends with heroes in the world.

Moreover, my elder brother died of illness and went home to inherit the family business before he started to grow up.

Finally, he took advantage of the opportunity to gather troops and seize the county town. He expanded his power from childhood to adulthood. He could be said to have reached the position of King of Wei step by step.

I don’t want to be defeated today, and my hard work has been scattered for more than ten years.

"Wang Hongyi..." Xu Wenhui recited this name, and hatred burst out from his eyes: "I will repay you ten times the humiliation today in the future!"

At this time, Xu Wenhui didn't feel that he had completely failed, but he still wanted to regroup.

At this time, Zhong Yu brought in a bowl of medicine: "Your Majesty, take medicine and you are sweating all over, and you will be fine tomorrow."

Xu Wenhui held the bowl and drank it in one breath, rested for a while, and sweared, saying self-deprecatingly: "I didn't expect that I would have this day."

"I have been fighting in the same place for ten years. I always wanted to build a foundation and defeated many heroes... I didn't want to make wedding dresses for others... I'm afraid that at the beginning, many wealthy families in the county did not favor orphans!"

Zhong Yu is a very smart person. He knows that life and death are at the moment. If there is any slightest revelation, it will be a disaster. He said, "The king will eventually get out of trouble... If he fails to die in a great disaster, he will have good fortune in the future. This is great blessing."

"How can the king underestimate himself... King, you have suffered several disasters in the past ten years, and have made a comeback after lying on firewood and tasting gall? You have all relied on you for your great cause!" He served carefully and took the bowl down.

Xu Wenhui let out a breath, nodded, feeling relieved, and lay down, and after just a moment, he fell asleep.
Chapter completed!
