Chapter 170

Zhang Xiu seemed to be only in his early twenties, and his energy and blood were vigorous, which was inextricably linked to Zhang He's killing.

There were a total of 1 people on both sides, fighting close to each other on a small mountain pass, shouting and screaming, and no one had the intention of giving up.

After half an hour, Zhang He failed to get in. His lieutenant was a little uneasy, and said, "General Zhong Lang, Old Bandit Dong is obviously on guard. If we can't get in, let's retreat."

Zhang Yun's hair was disheveled and his body was covered in blood. He said coldly, "Old Bandit Dong has other schemes. We must continue to fight. Food and grass are in danger, and his morale will be shaken!"

The lieutenant immediately understood, gritted his teeth and rushed forward again.

Not far outside the valley, Huangfu Jianzhang was still waiting to reap the benefits of the fisherman, and sealed off the surrounding area. At the same time, he was keeping a close eye on the direction of Yuan Shu's camp, and news came continuously.

At this time, a scout galloped over, jumped down, knelt down on one knee and said, "Report to Captain, Yuan Shu has been defeated and is retreating to Yangzhou."

Both Huangfu Jianchang and Shi A were taken aback, it was obviously Yuan Shu who dug a trap and waited for Dong Zhuo, why did he lose instead?
"Tell me in detail!" Huangfu Jianchang took two steps closer and said urgently.

In Liu Bian's plan, Yuan Shu can sit on the throne, but Dong Zhuo can't!
The detective said: "Dong Zhuo attacked the camp and found out that it was a trap, so he retreated quickly. Yuan Shu drove the army to chase, but was attacked by ambushes from both wings, so he was defeated."

Huangfu Jian was stunned for a long time, and said to himself: "This Yuan Shu is really incompetent, I have helped him to this extent, but he still lost..."

Shi A raised his right hand, holding the sword in his hand, and said, "What should we do now?"

If Yuan Shu is defeated, then Yuzhou will fall into Dong Zhuo's hands. Dong Zhuo is no better than Yuan Shu. Once he gains power, it will definitely be a big trouble!

Huangfu Jian snorted coldly, turned his head to look at Zhang He and Zhang Xiu who were still fighting in Huizi Valley, and whispered a few words in Shi A's ear.

Shi A nodded, got on his horse and left.

Not long after, Shi A appeared outside the Huizi Valley with about 500 soldiers and horses, and shouted at the same time: "General Zhang Zhonglang, the old thief has been defeated. My lord ordered me to come and support him!"

Hearing the voice, Zhang He looked back and saw flags with the word 'Yuan' everywhere in the bright sky, with hundreds of people in front and thousands of people behind!
"My lord has defeated Dong Zhuo, kill him!"

Zhang He didn't doubt that he was there, so he swung his troops to fight Zhang Xiu again.

Zhang Yun could hear it, and Zhang Xiu's troops could also hear it clearly. Seeing Dong Zhuo's defeat and Yuan Shu's reinforcements arriving, the army's morale was in turmoil, and the stalemate collapsed instantly.

"Steady, don't be afraid, we are easy to defend but difficult to attack, don't be afraid!" Zhang Xiu shouted, trying to stabilize the formation.

How could Zhang He give him a chance, seized the opening, tore it apart like a piece of paper, and quickly pierced into Zhang Xiu's camp.

A chief stood beside Zhang Xiu, retreating while fighting, and said anxiously: "Lieutenant, burn the warehouse, we must not let the food and grass fall into Yuan Shu's hands!"

Zhang Xiu gritted his teeth and said, "I don't believe Dong Guild will lose!"

As Zhang Ji's nephew, Zhang Xiu can also guard the important granary, so he naturally knows the overall plan.

Shi Chang smiled wryly, and said: "Captain, Yuan Shu's reinforcements have arrived, and it will be too late if we don't burn the barn."

Zhang Xiu was hesitant and was still resisting with all his strength.

Suddenly, a group of soldiers with hundreds of people dressed in strange clothes appeared, opened the way with shields, followed by spears, and directly killed a bloody path, approaching the direction of the big warehouse in the valley.

"Stop them!" Zhang Xiu yelled, leading people to stop them.

"Not a single one!"

The imposing Zhang He shouted loudly, led the soldiers, slaughtered one-sidedly, and kept advancing into the valley.

The ruins were broken, blood flowed horizontally, corpses were everywhere, and the sound of killing echoed in the valley like ghosts.

Shi A led 500 people, did not help anyone, stayed not far away, watching the valley.

Huangfu Jian grew up on the other side, raised his head, saw that the sky was getting brighter, and estimated in his mind when Dong Zhuo's reinforcements would arrive, he suddenly got on his horse and came to the side of Shi A.

"One hour at most." Huangfu Jian looked solemn, took out the sword at his waist, put it on the horse's back, and covered his face with a black cloth.

Shi Adang pretended not to see it, and said, "What should we do now?"

Huangfu Jianchang picked up his sword again and said, "Wait a little longer."

At this time, Gu Nei gradually realized that something was wrong.

Zhang He didn't wait for reinforcements, and Zhang Xiu also didn't see Yuan Shu's reinforcements that appeared before.

'Where did you go? '

The two were equally puzzled, but at this level, they had no other way out and could only continue to fight.

Another half an hour later, when the battle between the two armies was in full swing, there was another loud roar outside the valley.

"Xuzhou Lv Bu, hereby order to hunt for thieves!"

"Lieutenant Zhang Xiu, hold on! Don't burn the warehouse!"

"Yuan Shu was defeated, Captain Zhang, don't be fooled!"

The sound of the explosion again stunned Zhang He and Zhang Xiu—the changes were too fast, and they were at a loss as to what to do.

They didn't know the truth, but Huangfu Jianchang didn't care. He led 3000 people and rushed towards Zhang He's buttocks in the valley.

It didn't take long for Zhang Yun's army to be in a state of confusion, and they collapsed in a panic in the narrow valley road.

Standing on a high place and looking out, Zhang Xiu saw Zhang Yun's formation was in chaos, so he waved his spear and shouted: "Reinforcements have arrived, kill them!"

Zhang Xiu's collapsed military spirit gradually gathered, blocking Zhang Xi's attack.

On the other hand, Zhang Yun was flanked by front and back, and his army's morale had collapsed. Although he didn't know what happened outside, he still shouted: "Get out!"

Huangfu Jianchang didn't want to lose his soldiers and horses, so he deliberately let go of a road.

Zhang He saw it clearly, felt weird in his heart, but couldn't care less about it, and rushed out.

Zhang Xiu was aggrieved and killed for half an hour, leading more than 1000 people to chase him.

Huangfu Jianchang didn't care, he led people straight to the valley, with a simple and clear purpose - to take over Dacang.

After Zhang Xiu raised his hand, he stopped and came not far from Shi A, holding the gun and raising his hand, he said, "May I ask who the general is?"

Shi A directly took out a tiger talisman, and said: "I will take over Da Cang immediately, and order you to chase after Zhang Yun, and you will never return!"

Looking at the tiger talisman, Zhang Xiu was startled, and then hesitated.

How could he fail to see that the purpose of these people was the granary!
The importance of food and grass, needless to say, lost food and grass, let alone him, even his uncle Zhang Xiu was not enough for Dong Zhuo to chop.

But this tiger talisman was obviously from the capital, and Zhang Xiu hadn't dared to disobey his orders. The main reason was that there were less than 2000 of his remnants and defeated soldiers who could stand up.

"You want to disobey?" Shi A said calmly.

Zhang Xiu's scalp became tense all of a sudden, he felt a clear killing intent from Shi A's body, it wasn't the kind of bluff, it was because whenever he hesitated, his head would fall to the ground!
"The last general dare not!" Zhang Xiu said hastily.

"Where is the money?" Suddenly, a voice came from behind Shi A.

Zhang Xiu glanced, but didn't see anyone speaking, and said: "The end general doesn't know."

Seeing that he didn't say anything, and didn't want to rush to waste time, Huangfu Jian said, "Let's go."

Zhang Xiu clearly knew that the situation was wrong, but he was surrounded here, he had no other choice but to follow orders, lead his soldiers and horses, and turn around to leave the valley.

Huangfu Jian gave Shi A a look, and then ordered the soldiers: "Take them all away, and burn those that cannot be transported!"

The soldiers obeyed the orders, while Shi A led people to guard Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu went out of the valley and stayed ten miles away to rest and recuperate. The more he thought about it, the more wrong he became, but he didn't dare to make a move, so he couldn't help feeling extremely anxious.

Huangfu Jianchang's movements were very fast, he transported away the food, and burned the Zigu to a clean slate with a single fire.

"Old Shi, you are escorting the grain to Yanzhou. I have sent a letter to Xu Rong, and he will pick you up." Huangfu Jianchang said excitedly, looking at the carts of military grain.

Shi A was riding on the horse, startled when he heard the words, and said: "What else do you want?"

Huangfu Jian grinned, and said: "Dong Zhuo has plundered so much money, since he is not here, he is probably still in Pei County, which is an empty city, I will not be reconciled if I don't take a look!"

Shi A looked up to the direction of Yuan Shu's camp, and said, "Dong Zhuo's reinforcements will arrive within half an hour at most."

Huangfu Jianchang got on his horse and said, "I know, I know, you follow the route we have discussed, and pay attention to cutting off your tail."

Shi A hit the horse and said: "I know these things better than you, so be careful."

Huangfu beat his horse, and the two split up, one headed for Yanzhou, and the other headed straight for Peixian County.

Zhang Xiu was not far away, watching their movements, becoming more and more anxious, determined to lead his troops to chase after them, but looking at the exhausted soldiers, he was worried about an ambush, so he could only send someone to watch them, not daring to move.

On the other side, Huangfu Jianchang rushed into the empty city of Pei County.

"Look for it! Anything that is important and possible, dig three feet deep for me!" Huangfu Jianchang rode his horse and headed straight for the Pei County government office.

"Yes!"

The soldiers dispersed, going to every possible place where the money was hidden.

Dong Zhuo sent troops to loot everywhere, not only food, but also a lot of money.

Copper coins are no different than other things. Ten thousand coins must be packed in several big boxes, tens of millions, tens of millions, and a large warehouse is required!

Huangfu Jian beat around, then felt that something was wrong, turned around and ran to the Peixian warehouse.

"Lieutenant, Dong Zhuo's reinforcements are coming soon, within twenty miles at most!" Suddenly, a guard from the Imperial City Mansion came to report.

Huangfu Jian was sweating profusely on his head, and said anxiously: "It must be a big warehouse, it's not hard to find, you must find it, find it for me!"

"Yes!" The guards responded.

After a while, the guard next to him said again: "Captain, what can we do if we find this? Dong Zhuo's men will definitely catch up to him."

The speed of transporting money must be very slow, where it can run faster than cavalry.

Huangfu Jianchang had already made the worst plan in his heart, and said: "I have my own method, just find it for me!"

The guards didn't speak any more, they rummaged around, almost turning Pei County over.

"The lieutenant found it!" After an unknown amount of time, a guard hurried over and shouted.

Huangfu turned his head sharply, and hurriedly said, "Where is it?"

The guard was beside him, following his footsteps, and said: "In an abandoned yard, there is nothing on the outside, but there are ruts everywhere inside, and the brothers found it on a high place."

"it is good!"

Huangfujian was overjoyed, and said: "Call everyone and transport them all away, hurry up!"

The guard said: "Brothers are already carrying it. But Captain, Dong Zhuo's reinforcements are coming."

Huangfu Jian straightened the corners of his face, and said, "I'll handle it!"

Seeing that Huangfu Jian was nervous, the guards did not dare to say anything, and led him to the abandoned yard.

I saw soldiers loading boxes of cars, copper coins scattered all over the ground, and many precious things such as gold, silver and jewelry.

On the other side, Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu joined forces, not far from Pei County.

Zhang Ji was full of anger, and said: "Stupid! Then Lu Bu is still in Guangling, and the tiger talisman must be fake!"

Zhang Xiu was terrified, beat his horse by the side, and said: "Uncle, I don't think it's fake, those people are not bandits, they are obviously well-trained, more like..."

Zhang Ji frowned and said, "What does it look like?"

Zhang Xiu hesitated for a moment, moved closer, and said in a low voice, "It looks like an imperial army."

Zhang Ji reined in the horse rope abruptly, stopped abruptly, and then caught up with Zhang Xiu who had no time to stop, pulled his collar, and said in a low voice with gloomy eyes: "Are you telling the truth?"

Zhang Xiu was flustered, and said in a low voice: "I saw them in the Forbidden Army camp. Their formation, momentum, and military appearance... are very similar. Uncle also knows that the soldiers and horses in the Forbidden Army camp are different from those in other places. Their pace and formation are different. no the same."

Zhang Ji's face suddenly turned gloomy, and his mind changed quickly.

He didn't doubt Zhang Xiu's words. He had brought Zhang Xiu, Hua Xiong, Guo Si and others to stay in the Forbidden Army camp for a long time, and knew that the training methods there were very special, and they were the only ones in this family.

'Is the court going to take action against Duke Dong? Zhang Ji thought anxiously.

He was Dong Zhuo's old subordinate, and he knew that Dong Zhuo was unwilling to submit to others, but when it came to treason, Zhang Ji didn't have the guts, and he was sure that Dong Zhuo would not openly disobey him.

"Go and see!"

After struggling for a while, Zhang Ji said in a low voice to Peixian, who was already in sight.

Zhang Xiu nodded, but he was still apprehensive. Dong Zhuo would definitely not let him go for such a serious crime as losing food and grass!
