Rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 131

Ju Shou glared at Zhang Chun, and snorted coldly: "Zhang Guoxiang, the bandit army has haunted Wuji territory, and you can't get rid of it."

"What?" Zhang Chun's complexion changed drastically, pointing at Ju Shou and shouting sharply: "I have nothing to do with the bandit army, so don't spout blood."

Jushou sneered and said, "I have no such intentions! It's just that your Excellency, as the Prime Minister of Zhongshan, has nothing to do with the fact that the bandit army in the territory is so rampant?"

"This..." Zhang Chun realized that he had said the wrong thing, flicked his sleeves and walked out: "I will immediately mobilize troops to suppress the thieves, but it is difficult to protect the safety of your family, so we should send out guards to search for him as soon as possible!"

Jushou snorted slightly, and walked quickly to Kuayuan. Zhang Fei had already urged the soldiers to finish their preparations, and was about to take a servant who reported the news to chase the bandit army, but Jushou stopped him first.

Zhang Fei said anxiously: "Madam was snatched away by thieves, the situation is urgent, sir don't need to talk anymore."

"Yide should not be reckless, plan first and then act!" Ju Shou persuaded: "If you go after the same way, you will definitely be escaped by the thieves."

Zhang Fei got on his horse and shouted angrily: "I'll kill him in his lair."

Jushou hurriedly said: "Yide, please listen to me. The territory of Zhongshan, from the east of Shangquyang, is a plain land. The bandit army gathered in Heishan and just robbed Shangquyang a few days ago. I expect they will go along the Dasha River. Back here, Yi Dedang will go northward, intercepting and killing the bandit army along the way."

Zhang Fei frowned slightly, and asked, "If according to what you said, if you were escaped by the thieves, how will you deal with it?"

If he hadn't listened to Lu Zhi's teachings during this period, he would have pushed Ju Shou aside and chased him out.

Ju Shou clasped his fists and said: "I would like to guarantee the life of the young lady. How dare I speak nonsense?"

"Okay, I'll follow Mr.'s advice!" Zhang Fei also felt that Ju Shou's words were reasonable, and immediately urged his horse to rush out of the Zhenjiazhuang courtyard.

At this time, the servant came to report: "Mister is not well, the master was so angry that he vomited blood and passed out!"

Ju Shou sighed softly, and ordered someone to call for a doctor immediately, and then asked Qu Yi to take care of the surroundings of the manor and pay attention to the movements of officers and soldiers at all times.

Then I rushed to the backyard to visit Zhen Yao, but saw that the maids were also in a mess, carrying water and yelling, coming in and out, and asked Zhen Jiang, "Ma'am, what happened to the side room?"

Zhen Jiang sighed, "San Niang also fainted when she heard that her sixth sister was snatched away by thieves."

"Third Madam?" Ju Shou frowned, "Is she so concerned about Zhen Dao?"

"You -- can't you think of someone?" Zhen Jiangbai glanced at Jushou, "Although Sanniang is usually a little harsh, she is a family after all. I stayed with Liumei for a night last night. She may be tired and nervous. I fainted because of lack of energy and blood, but it’s not a serious problem.”

Jushou glanced at the busy maid, turned around and entered the room, saw Zhen Yi lying on the bed, his face ashen, and someone was wiping the blood from his beard, so he could only sit aside and wait for the doctor to treat him.

In the Wuji County government office, Zhang Chun heard the officer's report and slammed the table angrily: "This bastard, Ju Shou, actually left Qu Yi at home, it's abominable!"

The county magistrate of Wuji persuaded: "Minister of the country, the bandit army is so arrogant, and people's hearts are uneasy. It is time to send troops to conscript and suppress."

"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Zhang Chun got up abruptly, pointed at Wuji County Magistrate and cursed: "If you hadn't leaked the news and ruined the good thing of the truth, how could the taxes in various places not be able to collect a penny?"

The county magistrate of Wuji called Qu and said, "It's true that the lower officials did not send anyone to spread the news, probably the common people passed it on spontaneously."

"The bandit army has emerged in Wuji County. It is due to the poor governance of your county. You can suppress the bandits on your own!" Zhang Chun's face was ashen as he walked away with his subordinates.

Out of the mansion, he suddenly laughed again: "Zhen Yi married his daughter to Youzhou, but was snatched away by thieves, this is retribution, hahaha——"

Wuji county magistrate let out a long sigh, knowing that Zhang Chun was hopeless, he had no choice but to change his official uniform and come to Zhen's family to discuss how to deal with the bandit army.

Zhang Fei led Yan Yunqi to the north and headed straight for the Dasha River, urging the horses all the way, not daring to delay at all. He was originally ordered to protect Zhen's family and prevent Zhang Chun's revenge, but he didn't expect that there would be robbers snatching the marriage.

From the northeast of Wuji County to the territory of Anguo, and then to the north is Fanyang. The terrain in this area is open and flat, and the bandits have nowhere to hide. If the Black Mountain bandits want to plunder this place, they have to pass the Zhisuo Lunu, so everyone is unprepared. But at this moment something went wrong.

The reputation of the Liu family and the Zhen family, as well as the safety of his future wife, Zhang Fei was extremely anxious.

Yan Yun rode extremely fast, galloping like the wind in the plain, and arrived at the bank of the Dasha River in more than an hour. The river was turbid and turbulent, the bank was full of swamps and reeds, and flocks of birds were flying and falling.

Zhang Fei ordered the soldiers to rest their horses temporarily behind the reeds, and sent scout horses along the river to inquire about the news. After a while, they came back and reported that there was a bandit army coming from the lower reaches, only more than [-] people.

These thieves were driving several carriages with red silk flags hanging on them, obviously they were the vehicles to see off their relatives.

Zhang Fei was already furious, and he shouted: "Boys, follow me to kill these gang of thieves."

The captain said: "Why don't we lie in ambush here, wait for the bandits to approach, and wipe them out in one fell swoop?"

"After listening to Lu Gong's art of war for a few days, everyone wants to use tactics?" Zhang Fei got on his horse and laughed loudly: "There are hundreds of thieves in the area, it's not worth Lao Zhang to use his brain and kill!"

Yanyun cavalry got on their horses one after another and followed Zhang Fei to the east. They met the bandit army in a blink of an eye. The cavalry, like a torrent of steel, rolled up a cloud of sand and dust on the bank of the river, covering the panicked bandit army.

Zhang Fei took the lead, and went straight to the red gauze-covered carriage in the center. Before anyone arrived, he shouted loudly, like thunder rolling from the sky, and scared the bandits who were driving the carriage to vomit blood and fall under the carriage.

Zhang Fei jumped onto the carriage shaft from the horseback, opened the sedan curtain and saw a woman in red who was tied up with hemp ropes and curled up like shrimp sticks. She had an exquisite figure and a curvy shape.

Zhang Fei got into the carriage and tried to untie the rope. The woman screamed and struggled, leaving him with nowhere to start. He quickly said: "Madam, don't panic, Zhang Yide is here to save you!"

The woman turned her head, Zhang Fei was startled, and saw that she had a red hijab stuffed in her mouth, her eyebrows were slightly frowned, and she kept wriggling her delicate body, especially the red heart-shaped birthmark on the tip of her eyebrows, which looked very coquettish at the moment, as if it could intimidate her. soul-stirring.

bang-

At this moment, suddenly there was a strong shock from the carriage, which knocked Zhang Fei down in the carriage, and he was caught off guard and lay on top of the woman.

"Ma'am, Da Da... I'm sorry!" Zhang Fei bumped his mouth on the other's shoulder, and hurriedly apologized vaguely.

"Lieutenant Zhang, be careful—" At this moment, a soldier exclaimed from outside.

Zhang Fei quickly got up and slapped himself hard. When he turned around, his eyes widened and his eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

It turned out that because no one was driving, Yan Yunqi and the bandit army were fighting again around. The horses driving the carts were frightened and ran wildly, breaking free from the shafts and fleeing.

At this time, the carriage was completely out of control, rumbling straight towards the shore, and the turbid Dasha River was in front of it.
