Three Kingdoms: My Wife Is Diao Chan

Chapter 304
Chapter 305
Furious, Zhu Ran asked his subordinates to gather the horses and look for harnesses and saddles, while he ran to the gate of the post station himself. He still had no idea what was going on inside the post station!

When Zhu Ran came to the gate of the post station, seeing Sun Lang escorting Wu Guotai out, he hurried forward to greet her.

It was no longer possible to stay in the station, the raging fire had completely engulfed the main building of the station, and the heat wave in the yard was overwhelming.

Everyone came to the official road in front of the post station, looking at the raging fire behind them, and the messy camp on the left and right, they really wanted to cry without tears.

"Mother, I'll take someone to chase after me, and I will definitely find my sister!"

Wu Guotai shook her head, her daughter probably won't be found, this time the enemy is obviously well prepared.

"General Zhu, how about the casualties?" Wu Guotai asked with a sigh.

"Ma'am, the thief just wanted to create chaos so that he could take the opportunity to escape. We didn't have many casualties."

Don't look at the whole group of people in distress, but there is no actual loss.

Casualties at the post station The fire seemed violent, but it was discovered immediately after the fire started. In fact, no one was injured, and even a maid who was knocked out outside Sun Shangxiang's room was dragged out.

Although the two camps were flattened by the horses, except for a few unlucky ones, all the sergeants fled in all directions, and no one was stupid enough to run under the hooves of the horses.

The place with the most casualties was actually in the open space behind the station, where the grooms and the soldiers who helped manage the horses were all dead. Xia Houba wanted to drive the horses away, he had to deal with them first.

"Madam, it's definitely not our postmen who rebelled this time. I'm afraid the enemy has already been waiting for us here."

Zhu Ran was also a famous general of the Eastern Wu Dynasty. After a little analysis, he found something strange. Thirty postmen did not have the guts to attack so many people, and these people went from setting fire to driving the horses to retreating without hesitation. To prevent himself from chasing, he also destroyed all the harnesses and saddles of all the horses. The whole process was carefully planned and the advance and retreat were measured, which is certainly not something ordinary postmen can do.

"But let them run away like this?" Sun Lang was angry and anxious, Sun Shangxiang was still with them, she ran away, what would she use to marry Liu Bei!

"I have asked the deputy general Zhu Guang to follow behind. They can't move fast even if they have horses at night. Once the horses are gathered, the general will immediately go after them."

Zhu Ran's guess was right, Xia Houba was really not walking fast, and he stopped after walking two or three miles.

"General, why don't you leave?" Feng Yi asked strangely.

"We were lucky this time. The departure went very smoothly. It was out of touch with our brothers who originally planned to meet us. Wait for them."

"That's right, there are still many arrangements that are useless! But let's go to a safe place first, it's only two or three miles away from the post station..."

"Don't worry, we not only dispersed their horses, but also destroyed their saddles and harnesses. They won't be able to chase them for a while..." Zhou Cheng explained to Feng Yi.

As soon as Zhou Cheng finished explaining, everyone noticed some faint fires in the northeast direction.

"Here we come! It should be Liu Tong and the others, Zhang Ba, to meet him."

After a while, Liu Tong and Zhang Ba came together with more than 50 people.

"Lieutenant Liu Tong of the School Affairs Office has seen the general! Report to the general that someone is chasing after him. There are not many people. Do you want to get rid of it?" Liu Tong also brought news of the chasing soldiers.

"Have you come after me so soon?" Xia Houba was taken aback.

"General, they came on foot." Zhang Ba explained.

Only then did Xia Houba understand: "Zhu Ran is very shrewd. He knows that we can't walk fast at night, so send people to follow us. Don't worry about them, they don't dare to approach."

"General, if they follow like this, our route will be exposed. If Zhu Ran gathers his horses and chases after him..." Zhang Ba worried.

"Haha! At that time, we will meet with General Ling Tong. I hope he will chase after him. Let's go to the riverside and meet Ling Tong."

For Xia Houba, how to run is the most difficult part of this mission, so he arranged several roads of support nearby. Feng Yi told Sun Shangxiang that there were thousands of people ambushing around, and it was not completely nonsense. some.

But what Xia Houba didn't expect was that the Sun family sent him to take care of the horses. How could such a good opportunity be missed?So Xia Houba directly drove the horses to create chaos, and then took the opportunity to run away.

The original arrangement was useless at all. The worst plan was to rely on a few ambush routes around the perimeter to attract troops and forcefully break through by themselves. In that case, there would definitely be a lot of casualties.

Xia Houba was very happy, and led everyone away from the official road, turned and headed north, Ling Tong was still waiting for him by the river with people!
"Wait a minute, you said Ling Tong just now?" Sun Shangxiang, who was staring at Feng Yi, suddenly realized.

Feng Yi covered her face. When Xia Houba mentioned Ling Tong just now, she knew she was going to reveal her secrets.

"What barrel?" Xia Houba immediately wanted to deny it, it was stuffed!Accidentally slipped my mouth!
"Who are you guys?" Sun Shangxiang was furious. She knew that Ling Tong had defected to Cao Jun.

Xia Houba didn't know how to explain it for a while, but they kept lying to Sun Shangxiang that he and others came from Yizhou!

Seeing that something was wrong, Sun Shangxiang's eyes flickered, and she rushed forward, ready to escape!

Feng Yi had been on guard for a long time, and reached out to grab her, but both of them fell off the horse!
"General! If I am disabled this time, you can give me more money for retirement!" Feng Yi got up from the ground and said to Xia Houba limping.

"You still think about money after falling like this? How is Miss Sun?" Xia Houba asked angrily.

"It's okay! But I lost my temper and refused to leave!"

Xia Houba frowned: "Now I can't help her, tell her if she is disobedient, don't be rough with me!"

He is still in the south of the Yangtze River now, and there is still a long way to go if he wants to get out of danger. Xia Houba will not spoil Sun Shangxiang.

After a small episode, everyone continued to head north.

Wangjiang Station was originally not far from the Yangtze River. When Xia Houba brought people to the riverside to reunite with Ling Tong, it was still dark!
"Xiahouba, what a skill! Not only did you capture Miss Sun, but you didn't hurt anyone!" Ling Tong thought it would be very difficult for Xiahouba to escape.

"Ha! It's really a stroke of luck this time, otherwise I'm afraid there will be a lot of losses." Xia Houba also felt that he was very lucky this time.

"Let's rest on the boat for a while, and we will cross the river north at dawn."

"Ling Tong, there is a tail behind us, and our whereabouts have been revealed. Zhu Ran may come after us."

"He will definitely come. The marriage between Sun and Liu is very important this time. He will be in serious trouble this time without Miss Sun. No matter what, he has to come in person. Let's wait for him by the river!" Ling Tong laughed loudly.

"It is estimated that Wang Jun and the others are coming back soon. This time it was a waste of a night. It's okay, we will retreat together after Zhu Ran is settled! After this time, Jiangnan is completely unable to stay!"
