[Three Kingdoms] Xinghan

No matter what they thought in their hearts, when Ling Han gave the order resolutely, everyone could only act according to plan.

Yang Zhen and Pei Yuanshao began to adjust the queue.

Yang Zhen said, "Brother Pei."

He was very clear in his heart.Although there are risks on both sides, the person who charges with cavalry is the most dangerous.

- Will definitely face Yuan Shujun's strongest attack.

As the guard of His Highness who was stationed in Changle Palace many years ago.

Yang Zhen very much hopes to see the day when His Highness restores the Han Dynasty with his own eyes.

But as the bodyguard in charge of protecting His Highness, leading troops to attract the attention of the enemy, he is the most duty-bound person.

Pei Yuanshao seemed to know what he wanted to say, and interrupted: "Mr. Mi Zhu was going to talk to you that day, but I interrupted him, so that you still don't know."

Yang Zhen was puzzled when he heard the words: "What?"

Pei Yuanshao said: "Your wife is already pregnant."

Yang Zhen's pupils slowly dilated.

Seeing this, Pei Yuanshao smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "A child can't be born without a father. I'm a widow, so it doesn't matter if I die."

"Besides, you might die. Maybe your side is more dangerous. After all, their target is Your Highness."

"No matter what, you must protect Your Highness!"

"Let's go, take the brothers to find a place first."

Pei Yuanshao led the cavalry away.

Yang Zhen was a little dazed.

On Ling Han's side, he also selected more than ten cavalrymen.

Their main task is reconnaissance on horseback.

Between Yanzhou, Yuzhou and Xuzhou, in addition to the easiest official roads and commercial roads that can barely pass thousands of people, there are also some mountain roads that are nowhere to go for ordinary people.

What Ling Han needs to find is the mountain road.

Two hours later.

Ling Han and Zhao Yun lay down at the bottom of a hillside, observing the activities of the small group of soldiers in front of them.

Looking at the clothes, they are Cao Cao's soldiers.

Of course, it is impossible for the allied forces of the princes to completely ignore these mountain roads. They have obviously scouted the nearby terrain long ago.

There are five soldiers stationed in front of each mountain road.

The task of these soldiers is not to block, but to report.

The mountain road is extremely difficult to walk, and it will take a lot of time to pass. In this process, archers can easily kill.

Ling Han said: "Although the coalition forces of the feudal lords have left soldiers on duty in front of each mountain road, the defense of the soldiers is not tight. They will exchange every half an hour. In just half an hour, they will soon be able to Catch up."

After calculating in his heart for a moment, he tilted his head and asked, "Can senior brother kill these five people at the same time with a bow and arrow?"

Zhao Yun nodded slightly: "You can try."

That said, it should be fine.

Ling Han probably had an idea in his heart, and said: "Brother, let's go back first."

The two came to the place agreed with others in advance.

After summarizing, soon, Ling Han drew a simple mountain road map.

And on the other side.

Cai Mao occupies a commercial road leading to Xuzhou.

Thanks to the joint efforts of King Changsha and Sun Ce to kill Huang Zu.Now that Liu Biao is seriously ill, the military power in Jingzhou is in his own hands.

During this siege, Cai Mao brought almost all the best soldiers and generals in Jingzhou.

His son Cai Rong asked: "Father, besides the three commercial roads, there are so many mountain roads nearby. Don't we need to be careful?"

Cai Mao laughed and said, "It is impossible for a large number of soldiers to pass through those mountain roads. If the king of Changsha wants to escape from the mountain roads, he must abandon his own army."

He sneered, and continued: "In a desperate situation, once a soldier is abandoned by the general, the morale of the army will drop to the bottom in an instant. Even if there is no battle, we can easily see it from the performance of the soldiers. It's not too late to chase down the Changsha King who wants to escape."

Just after saying this, black smoke rose in the distance.

Cai Mao stretched his neck and looked around, "What's going on?"

After a while, a scout came to report: "General, the mountain is on fire!"

"Mountain fire?" Cai Mao pondered: "It's so cold, how could there be a fire in the mountains for no reason? It must be the king of Changsha who wanted to break out from the mountain road, but was discovered by the garrison, and then the mountain fire started!"

"The king of Changsha has really abandoned his army! Zhang Ying, you take two thousand cavalry and go to the mountain fire to search for the king of Changsha!"

Although Cai Hao did not arrange soldiers in the mountains, he knew that Cao Cao had ambushed the archers there.

Even if King Changsha cannot be stopped, his own cavalry will arrive soon.

"It couldn't be better!" Cai Mao said quickly, "The most frightening thing about King Changsha is that he has a great reputation both among the scholars and among the common people."

"But the eldest son of the emperor, who left his soldiers for his life, was captured by us in the end. I want to see who will admire him in the future."

The reason why Cai Mao decided to unite the northern princes to get rid of the Changsha king was because of the Changsha king's policy towards the aristocratic family.

- All along, what he couldn't understand the most was the Yangzhou family.

He, who is from Jingzhou, has seen the intention of King Changsha to weaken the family. Why are the scholars in Yangzhou indifferent?

Beside him, his son Cai Rong thought silently: Is father's judgment really correct?

In his heart, Changsha King is not such a person.

At the same time, Yuan Shujun.

"Is there a fire in the mountains?"

Yuan Shu thought for a moment, then said loudly: "The whole army is on alert!"

In his opinion, if the king of Changsha really wanted to escape from the mountains, he should quickly kill the soldiers on duty in the mountains, and then escape secretly.

With such a big commotion, didn't he tell others clearly that there was a conflict in the mountain, and he wanted to escape from the mountain road?

Not long after, the scouts came to report: "Duke Yuan, the cavalry of King Changsha are coming here."

"Sure enough! The mountain fire is just a cover." Yuan Shu snorted coldly: "Three thousand cavalry want to break through my army? It's just a dying struggle. Let's settle the past enmity today!"

At this moment, Yuan Shu couldn't help scolding Cao Cao secretly.

Earlier, he followed Cao Cao's suggestion and transferred most of the archers in the army to other places.

Otherwise, with the archers around, wouldn't it be an easy task to wipe out the three thousand cavalry of King Changsha?

"Forget it, after all, he is the eldest son of the emperor, so he will fight with you in an upright manner."

I have a total of [-] cavalry and [-] infantry, so it is not difficult to destroy the opponent.

Yuan Shu ordered all the cavalry under his command to stand in formation.

However, as soon as they fought, Yuan Shu was taken aback.

His own [-] cavalry, in terms of combat effectiveness, was no match for the [-] cavalry on the opposite side!

As for sending the rest of the infantry up—

The cavalry had already restrained the infantry, so even if they really stopped them, they would be seriously injured.

There are Cao Cao and Cai Hao not far away. Once most of his troops are lost, will he still be able to go back to Yuzhou?

No matter how much Yuan Shu hated Changsha King, he would not even care about his own life in order to put Changsha King to death.

Besides, even if he really breaks through here, will he be able to return to Xuzhou safely?

There is still an ambush behind.

After reading this, he yelled at the messenger soldiers: "These cavalry are so brave, how could the King of Changsha not be among them! Go and tell Cao Mengde that if he doesn't send cavalry to help quickly, I will not be able to stop the King of Changsha."

The messenger soldiers rode the fastest horses, and they arrived at Cao Cao's territory in less than a cup of tea.

Cao Cao frowned after listening to the messenger soldier's words.

Yuan Shu couldn't stop it.

He originally thought that it was unlikely that the King of Changsha would lead his army to charge simply and rudely.

However, if the King of Changsha was not in that cavalry force, how could Yuan Shu not be able to stop it?

The coach is not there, the soldiers are fighting bravely, who will show it?

"Cao Hong, go to support Yuan Shu with three thousand cavalry!"

"Cao Ren, take the cavalry to see where the fire is—look."

"Xiahoudun, send a message to Yang Luo to cancel the ambush, let the archers take the official route, and rush to Wangyapo immediately."

The best situation right now is to stop the King of Changsha from Yuan Shu.

The second is at the next place - after passing through Yuan Shu, before arriving in Xuzhou, they will pass Wangyapo.There are hundreds of archers on Wangyapo at the moment.However, if there were too many cavalry fleeing from Yuan Shu, hundreds of archers would not be able to stop them, and reinforcements were necessary.If King Changsha really wanted to escape from Yang Luo's ambush, he would have acted when the cavalry charged, and would not have waited until now.

As for searching the location of the wildfire, it is just in case.

After issuing three orders in a row, Cao Cao couldn't hold back anymore.

In his view, Yuan Benchu ​​was lenient and persistent, and he was too strategic and not worthy of attention.When he subdued all Dong Zhuo's troops, it would be no problem to take down the opponent.

Xu Yang and the two places are the real threat.

Yanzhou under his rule is adjacent to Xuzhou. If he hadn't noticed it in time, many people might have fled to Xuzhou.

Yangzhou is even more surprising.

According to the people he sent to investigate, countless wastelands have been reclaimed in the past few years, and the population has also greatly increased.

If it goes on like this, in a few years, it may become the most prosperous state in the world.

However, Yangzhou has a very deadly place.

If Yuan Shao dies, as long as his two sons unite, they can almost inherit Yuan Shao's complete power.

However, in Yangzhou, whether it is the division of internal factions among civil servants and generals, or the conflict between the aristocratic family and the common people, it is currently relying on the king of Changsha to maintain the balance.

The development of Yangzhou seems to be unbelievably perfect, but in essence it relies on personal prestige.

—Once Changsha King Liu Ying dies, Yangzhou will be in chaos.

Whether it is Yangzhou Mu Zhang Zhao, or Sun Ce who commands the most soldiers, or Zhou Yu who wanders among the aristocratic families.

Even if the three of them were completely united, they would not be able to inherit this power at all.

When the civil strife is over, attacking Yangzhou will become extremely easy.

There was determination in Cao Cao's eyes.

As long as the King of Changsha can be eliminated this time, it seems that it will no longer be a difficult task to regain the world.

One day, he will prove to the world that he is the most suitable person.

But Ling Han's position at this time was neither in the place of the mountain fire nor in the cavalry.

The place where the mountain fire ignited was a dry forest in the north.

At this moment, Ling Han is at the bottom of the slope in the center.

It's a coincidence.The mountain roads on the border of Yanzhou are almost covered with vegetation that grows in spring and withers in autumn in the north; while in the south, it is dominated by evergreen trees.

Only in this place in the center, the two phases intersect.

When Ling Han was in college, he once read a treatise on topography written by a well-known scholar.

As in the current situation, it is easy to have an ambush in the south, but it is difficult to hide in the north, so the center is the best.

He chose this place.

After the opponent changed the garrison once, Zhao Yun killed the garrison as quickly as possible, and according to Ling Han's instructions, he used gunpowder, incense sticks, and paper to make a device to delay the ignition.

Make sure the fires are lit before the next wave of garrisons arrives.

And taking advantage of the time before the mountain fire burned, Zhao Yun returned to Ling Han's place.

Seeing that his senior brother returned smoothly, Ling Han made a gesture, ready to kill the garrison at this place with lightning speed.

The mountain fire in the north and Yuan Shu's charge will buy them the most time.

Just as Zhao Yun was about to move, he suddenly frowned and stopped.

Ling Han showed doubts.

Zhao Yun then wrote three words on his hand: There is an ambush.

Ling Han was startled: Ambush?

I, Yang Zhen and others have been here for more than an hour, without any awareness at all.

A general ambush, especially in the case of "the possibility of successfully ambushing the enemy here is not high", it is difficult to do so.

However, Ling Han still believed in Zhao Yun's judgment.

So, he hibernates again.

I was a little anxious in my heart.

After Cao Cao's soldiers and horses arrived at the mountain fire, they must first search the mountain road ahead.

The second is the vicinity of wildfires.

When these places are over and you haven't found yourself, then you will expand the scope.

Just two cups of tea.

Ling Han heard the horse's voice.

— A military general rushed over and shouted to the forest in front of him, "Mr. Yang Luo."

After a while, a person dressed as a scholar came out.

It was too far away, and he didn't dare to look closely, Ling Han couldn't see the other person's appearance clearly.

But what is certain is that there is really another group of ambushes here, and this scholar is the leader.

Ling Han thought belatedly.

If he really chooses to sacrifice soldiers, he will just run for his life.

Then, the soldiers would not charge, and it would be impossible for these people to withdraw.

I will not have any possibility of escaping from the mountain road.

It was Xiahou Dun who came.

Xiahou Dun quietly watched the other party walk out of the valley: "General Xiahou."

"Mr. Yang."

Xiahou Dun clasped his fists and said, "My lord ordered you to lead the archers to Wangyapo immediately."

Yang Luo frowned and said, "Have you confirmed that King Changsha is among the cavalry?"

Xiahou Dun explained it quickly.

Yang Luo said again: "But if I take people there now, is there still time?"

Another tall warrior came out with a majestic voice: "From the commercial road to Wangyapo, you have to go around in a big circle. If you walk on the official road, you can get ahead of them even if you don't ride a horse."

Xiahou Dun was stunned, he clasped his fists and said, "General Lu."

He is full of respect for this well-deserved No. [-] man in the world.

However, Xiahou Dun really didn't understand.Yang Luo, the eunuch, why did he get Lu Bu's favor.

Yang Luo nodded when he heard the words: "In that case, General Lu and I will take people there immediately."

He turned around and shouted a few words, and soon, many archers appeared in the forest.

Seeing this scene, Ling Han was shocked.

What surprised him was not that there were so many archers ambushing here, but the clothes these archers wore.

No—one is in armor.

The archers in the north were all dressed in gray clothes.

The archers in the south are wearing green clothes.

Although there is still a big gap with the camouflage uniforms of later generations.

But there is no doubt that their clothes are very close to the surrounding environment, obviously prepared with the same thought as camouflage.

The origin of camouflage uniforms is clearly from the British army in the nineteenth century!

Zhao Yun stared at Ling Han's profile.

The enemy soldiers were indeed dressed in strange clothes, but the reaction of the younger brother was also somewhat puzzling.

Yang Luo and Lu Bu were about to lead the archers away.

At this moment, someone suddenly came to Yang Luo and knelt down.

Yang Luo was startled-jumped, and unconsciously took a step back.

Lu Bu glanced at him, then looked at the soldier in front of him: "What are you going to do?"

It was none other than Yan Baihu from Yangzhou Shanyue who knelt down.

On that day, after he escaped from the Changsha King by chance, he soon learned that his own brother had defected to the Changsha King and was appointed an official by the Changsha King.

It is precisely because of this that other Shanyue forces in Yangzhou also retreated.

Since then, Yan Baihu hated Ling Han even more.

The two sworn brothers he recognized, one was sent by Ling Han to feign surrender, and the other also saw the situation and wanted to change his family.

I didn't expect even my own brother to do the same!

He swore that sooner or later he would come back with revenge.

Later, he joined the Xiliang Army, which was destined to be at odds with the royal family, and became a soldier under Lu Bu's command.

Later, he followed Lu Bu to Yanzhou.

Yan Baihu also heard the analysis just now - clearly.

But the princes in the north didn't understand the soldiers of King Changsha, but he knew it all too well.

If the king of Changsha is not around, the soldiers will lose their combat effectiveness?

This is simply not possible!

In Yangzhou, enlisting in the army needs to be fought for.

Everyone hopes to fight for King Changsha.

Changsha King is best at winning people's hearts.In the current situation, as long as the King of Changsha said something at length, the soldiers would surely be able to coax the soldiers to fight for him to escape regardless of their lives!

After Yan Baihu finished his reasons, he explained his origin to prove that he knew the reliability of King Changsha.

Xia Houyuan frowned deeply.

If so, wouldn't it be possible for the Lord's judgment to be wrong?

Yang Luo, however, said with a half-smile: "So, the King of Changsha spared your life, and instead of being grateful, you will repay your kindness with revenge?"

Yan Baihu - stunned.

what happened?Didn't everyone say that Mr. Yang Luo hated Changsha King deeply?How could he speak for the King of Changsha?

At the beginning, the King of Changsha really had the intention to spare his life.

But he caused himself to lose all his strength, his loved ones, and—everything!

The so-called letting go of himself is just because he feels that he will no longer be threatened.

That being the case, then he will not live in vain, but—must make King Changsha pay for the decision made that day!

Lu Bu beside him couldn't help but look at Yang Luo as well.

Xia Houyuan frowned even more: "What does Mr. Yang mean by that?"

But Yang Luo didn't have any scruples, haha-smiled: "It's not interesting, I just think it's fun. Your Highness should be like this!"

Afterwards, he put away his smile, and said to Xiahou Dun, "Since the king of Changsha still has the possibility of escaping from the mountain road, the master's plan must be changed--change it?"

"I will hand over [-]% of the archers here to General Xiahou, and General Xiahou will take them to Wangyapo. But, I want to borrow someone from General Xiahou, how about that?"

Xiahou Dun couldn't help asking: "Who is it?"

Yang Luo said: "I came to the lord temporarily a few days ago, General Guan Yunchang."

Xiahou Dun frowned and said, "My lord treats him very politely, I can't move him."

Yang Luo smiled lightly: "It's okay. I heard that General Xiahou and General Guan have a very happy conversation these days. Just ask General Xiahou to give me a token, and I will have a way to persuade him."

The author has something to say: The battle here has been changed several times, but I am still not satisfied, but I said it will be updated today, so I will post it first... I may modify the details here later, but the specific things, such as strict Baihu's revenge, Yang Luo's ambush, and every boxed meal have been decided a long time ago and will not change.

The former white-faced scholar, that is, Yang Luo in this chapter, should be able to guess his identity after seeing this. Someone in the previous comment area has already guessed that it is the roommate at the beginning.As for why he time travels, why he hates Ling Han so much, the following chapters will reveal further
