Agents of the Three Kingdoms

In the north of Wuji County, Guozhuang Town.

A caravan is marching, slowly heading south.There are more than a hundred people in this caravan, and all the guards are dressed in strong clothes, with strong physiques, capable and powerful.The two young men in the lead, one of them was holding a long knife, the other was holding a big gun, and they rode in front with big smiles on their faces.

The name of the person holding the knife is Xiahou Dun, whose character is Rang, from Peiguoqiao (now Bozhou, Anhui). He is famous for his martial arts.When Xiahoudun was 14 years old, he learned art from a teacher. It happened that someone insulted his teacher. After Xiahoudun learned about it, he picked up a knife and killed someone. From this, he was famous in the village for his courage.

The name of the man holding the gun was Xiahouyuan, whose style name was Miaocai, and he was a younger brother of Xiahoudun.Xia Houyuan's wife is the younger sister of Cao Cao's wife and son, and the two have a close relationship.Before Cao Cao became an official, there was an accident in Pei County, and Xia Houyuan took Cao Cao's place without hesitation.Later, Cao Cao managed to save Xia Houyuan from disaster.

Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan led a caravan from Yanzhou to the north, passed through Jizhou and Youzhou, and finally went out of the fortress to sell the silk, tea, jewelry, etc. outside the fortress to earn profits.

The two walked around, made a lot of money, and had returned from the north.

Xiahou Dun held the long knife with a relaxed expression, "Miaocai, we went to the north and met a man who didn't understand the market, and made a lot of money. He made a lot of money. This trip back, can rest A little half a year."

Xia Houyuan shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Brother, Meng De replied that the situation in Luoyang is not good, let us make preparations early. Meng De is an official in Luoyang, at the foot of the emperor, and he knows a lot of news. His letter said so, it must be Something important happened. After we return to Pei County, we will recruit people as soon as possible to prepare for Mengde."

Xiahou Dun frowned, his eyes were rather puzzled, he shook his head and said, "I can't figure out what Meng De is thinking, isn't it good in Luoyang? Just let us brothers make preparations, as if something big is going to happen."

Xia Houyuan laughed and said: "If brother can understand, he will not be willing to help Meng De."

"That's true, that kid has been smart since he was a child, we can't compare."

Xiahou Dun raised his hand and shouted: "Send the order to all the people to speed up the journey. If we return to Pei County a moment earlier, we can rest a day earlier."

"Yes!"

The guard who sent the message ran to send the message, and the group accelerated again.

Compared with going north, it is much easier to go south and return.Because they escorted a large amount of goods when they went north, they had to prevent the goods from being damaged during the transportation, and also protect the goods from being robbed.Now that the caravan is returning from the south, the goods have been turned into money, and they almost only carry dry food and travel lightly, making it easy to travel.

"Report!"

A sentry came galloping on horseback, and soon approached Xiahou Dun.

In an instant, Xiahou Dun's expression became serious.

"What happened ahead?" Xiahou Dun asked.

Seeing Sentinel like this, Xia Houdun's heart arose and he dealt with it carefully.

The sentry stopped and reported: "My lord, I just got the news. There is a team in the north of Wuji County, about [-] soldiers escorting [-] horses to Xinshi County, about one day away from here. the journey."

Xiahou Dun's eyes lit up, and he asked, "What do you mean?"

The sentinel smiled lightly and said: "The old man has already guessed it, but he still needs to be tested. The old man sells silk, tea, etc. to make money and return to Pei County, and he has to find a special merchant to buy a horse weapon. Now he is on the way back When encountering hundreds of war horses, why do you vote for one? Six hundred war horses is not a small number. Even if we can’t keep all of them for ourselves, if we can snatch dozens or more than a hundred war horses, it will be of great help to us. .”

Sentry is Xiahou Dun's confidant and is highly regarded.

Xiahou Dun looked serious, with a flash of admiration in his eyes, he looked at Xiahouyuan next to him, and said, "Miaocai, what do you think about the horse?"

Xia Houyuan said: "This opportunity, given by God, should not be missed."

Xiahou Dun didn't hesitate anymore, swiped the long knife in his hand, and ordered: "Go to investigate the situation again, figure out their route, and prepare to ambush this team. Six hundred war horses, this is a quantity we have never owned before. Once all Take it, then we will hold a huge force in our hands."

The sentry immediately retreated and continued to investigate the situation.

Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan looked at each other, and continued on their way with the soldiers.

……

Ye County, the residence of the county magistrate.

In the hall, five people including Ju Shou, Xun Chen, Tian Feng, Xin Ping, and Xin Pi gathered together.

Five people pushing cups and exchanging cups, it was very lively.

After three rounds of food and five flavors of wine, Ju Shou's face already had a blush.With a smile on his face, he said: "Everyone, the news from Wuji County has been sent back. On the day Wang Lei arrived in Wuji County, he was attacked by bandits from the Black Mountain. This Wang Lei is not a timid person. He asked the Zhen family for three hundred The guards led people to meet the enemy at the gate of the city. He captured the Black Mountain Bandit by himself, defeated the Black Mountain Bandit Zhang Yan, and frightened thousands of Black Mountain Bandit back. Do you think it is serious?"

Simpi laughed and praised: "Wang Lei's martial arts skills are unquestionable, but regarding this matter, I find it unbelievable, and I have doubts in my heart. The Black Mountain bandits can clearly attack Wuji County by force, so why did they retreat?"

Ju Shou shook his head and said, "I don't know, maybe it's just luck."

Tian Feng stroked his short beard under his jaw, and said: "Three points are luck, seven points are strength, luck is also a kind of strength."

Xun Chen changed the subject and asked: "My lord and brother, the purpose of the state shepherd appointing Wang Lei as the magistrate of Wuji County is to kill people with a knife, so that Wang Lei will not leak the news. But after Wang Lei arrived in Wuji County, he defeated the Heishan bandits and convinced Wuji The county gentry, who appeased the hearts of the people, got along well and took up the duties of the county magistrate. The state shepherd's plan failed, how did he plan?"

Ju Shou chuckled twice, and replied: "I have already persuaded Mr. State Shepherd to stop paying attention to Wang Lei."

"Oh, how did you convince me?" Tian Feng asked.

Ju Shou smiled and said: "I told Master State Shepherd that Wang Lei is already the county magistrate of Wuji County and an official under the command of the State Shepherd. No further pursuit."

Xin Ping had a smile on his face, "The county magistrate is eloquent, one word can kill, one word can save people."

In a word, Ju Shou had no choice but to smile.

This is to say that Jushou's small suggestion at the beginning was to put Wang Lei to death; now Jushou's words save Wang Lei from self-harm and Han Fu's suspicion.

Simpi said: "I have been observing Wang Lei's actions. This person is not simple. I am afraid that he will be a character in the future."

Xun Chen chuckled twice, and said casually: "Wang Lei is indeed a good person, but he still has a long way to go, and it remains to be seen. Some people are lucky and capable, but they don't live long, so there is no way. If you are lucky, you can live a long life, and you have enough ability, then you are a master. Wang Lei has just started, and the future is a bit far away."

Tian Feng changed the subject and said, "What do you think about Luo Yang's matter?"

Ju Shou's expression became serious in an instant, and he even lowered his voice: "The general was killed by the eunuch, Luoyang was in turmoil, and Xiliang Dong Zhuo entered the capital. Things are more complicated. I don't understand the current situation."

Xun Chen nodded and said, "I also have this feeling, and it's hard to understand. A few days ago, I received a letter from Xun Yu, saying that everyone in Luoyang is in danger, and the situation is very complicated."

A group of people expressed their opinions and discussed what happened in Luoyang.
