When Ji Han and his men traveled to the Three Kingdoms crew

Chapter 469 Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, and Taishi Ci: The three of us are coming back! (Four thousand)
"General Huang is truly a god. I admire him!"

Feeling the cold blade against his throat, Wen Chou gave up struggling. He threw his lance to the ground with a clang-clang sound and raised his hands to indicate surrender.

Afterwards, Wen Chou ordered the soldiers of Yuan's army to stop fighting.

Wen Chou smiled bitterly. After all, he couldn't beat Huang Zhong. He really couldn't beat Huang Zhong.

If Huang Zhong had not held back, he would have been beheaded long ago.

If he would rather die than surrender, perhaps what awaits him is a sharp blow from Huang Zhong.

How can I delay time when I can't even save my life?

Maybe I can use words to make Huang Hansheng stop for a while?
Wen Chou couldn't help but start to think wildly. He was not sure what Gao Lan's current situation was.

It is certain that the person who led the hundred cavalry before must be Guan Yu.

The moment he saw Guan Yu charging into the battle line, Wen Chou's heart trembled and his eyelids twitched wildly. He always felt that the retreating army would encounter some unexpected disaster.

Now that I think about it, he was just confused.

Although Guan Yu was brave, he had only a hundred cavalrymen, while Yuan's army still had tens of thousands of soldiers. How could a mere hundred men defeat tens of thousands of soldiers?

Even if they just randomly called a farmer, he wouldn't be defeated by a hundred people, right?

At most it would just cause some trouble to the army.

Wen Chou thought to himself, I wonder what Gao Xuewei and the others are like.

"Good." Huang Zhong put down his sword and called a few soldiers, "You must take good care of General Wen."

When Wen Chou saw that Huang Zhong had arranged everything with just a few words, he was secretly surprised: Could it be that it was so easy to settle everything?
Who knew that the soldiers of Huang Zhong's army were so efficient that in just a few moments they had taken away the disarmed soldiers of Yuan's army one by one.

Wen Chou secretly thought that this was not good. He thought it would take some effort to determine the height, but he did not expect that Huang Zhong's soldiers were so familiar with the tactics!
In this way, wouldn't it be that the life is saved and the purpose of delaying time is not achieved?

When Wen Chou thought of Huang Zhong's army catching up with Gao Lan, he became anxious and dizzy, like an ant on hot pan.

He thought to himself: No, no! I must hold Huang Hansheng back.

Therefore, Wen Chou hurriedly shouted to Huang Zhong, "General Huang! General Huang, I have something important to discuss with you!"

Huang Zhong didn't want to pay attention. He wanted to pretend that he didn't hear it and was about to turn around and leave.

However, Huang Zhong was stopped by a feather fan. Huang Zhong looked up and said in surprise, "Military Advisor Xu? Why are you stopping me?"

"General Huang, you might as well listen to what Wen Chou has to say." Xu Shu said with a smile.

Huang Zhong's eyebrows were filled with worry. "Military Advisor Xu, what about Yun Chang's safety?"

"General Huang, please rest assured. I have already sent out scouts." Xu Shu gave Huang Zhong a reassuring look.

Huang Zhong, who got Xu Shu's reply, put his worries aside. He turned around and led Xu Shu towards Wen Chou.

Wen Chou was secretly delighted, but when he saw Xu Shu beside Huang Zhong, his brows suddenly frowned and a look of doubt appeared in his eyes.

It was because Xu Shu was dressed too much like a strategist, and he was naturally wary of strategists.

"General Huang, who is this?" Wen Chou asked in a low voice.

Huang Zhong frowned. He felt that Wen Chou was not straightforward at all. It was Wen Chou who called him here, and now he was being timid like a woman.

"Then I'll leave?" Huang Zhong tried to restrain his tone, but Xu Shu could hear the dissatisfaction in Huang Zhong's words.

Xu Shu hurriedly tried to smooth things over, saying, "I am just a clerk. If General Wen has something important to discuss with General Huang, I will leave."

"Master clerk, please stay! It was my fault just now. You are General Huang's right-hand man. With you around, we can get twice the result with half the effort, twice the result with half the effort!" Wen Chou said all the words he knew in one breath.

Although the Chief Clerk is an assistant clerk in charge of documents, Wen Chou also knows that the Chief Clerk is highly regarded by the commander-in-chief. It is even possible that his official title is Chief Clerk, but he is actually a brave general!
Before sending troops to attack Huang Zhong, Wen Chou learned from Xu You that Lu Bu from Bingzhou had come to surrender to Yuan Shao.

Lu Bu is a man of unrivalled courage, and his archery skills are superb!
His riding skills and bravery were so amazing that even Qu Yi was not his match!
You should know that Lu Bu’s previous official position was also chief clerk!

The strange bookkeeper in front of me.
Wen Chou, who was born a military man, noticed the thick calluses on Xu Shu's hands at a glance, and also saw the strong arms under Xu Shu's sleeves.

I think this chief clerk is similar to Lu Fengxian, and must be a good fighter!

We must drag this person out!

Xu Shu noticed that Wen Chou clenched his fists. Combined with Wen Chou's expression, he thought to himself: This man doesn't seem to be truly willing to surrender to us. Is he trying to hold us back even now?
Just thinking about it, Xu Shu couldn't help but laugh.

Fortunately, he quickly calmed down and asked first, "In this case, I would like to ask on behalf of General Huang, what is General Wen talking about?"

This question stumped Wen Chou, who secretly thought that something was wrong. He had just been thinking about how to stop Huang Zhong, and had not thought about what to say at all!
Wen Chou's face was frozen and he was at a loss for a moment.

Huang Zhong raised his eyebrows. He was not good at observing people's words and expressions, but he could see that Wen Chou was guilty. What a Wen Chou! Wasn't he playing a trick on them?

Xu Shu turned a blind eye and said with a smile, "In my humble opinion, General Wen wants to turn from evil to good and tell us about Jizhou?"

what?
Not only Wen Chou, but even Huang Zhong was stunned.

Wen Chou/Is this what I mean?
Fortunately, Huang Zhong reacted quickly and realized that Xu Shu did it on purpose. He closed his mouth, fearing to disturb Xu Shu. At this level, he should not disturb Xu Shu.

Wen Chou nodded subconsciously, "Ahhh, that's right!"

Wen Chou, who had just finished speaking, realized what he had said, but he didn't seem to have a good excuse at the moment.

Xu Shu gave earnest and persuasive advice and mentioned Zhang He inadvertently.

The name Zhang He was like a thorn in Wen Chou's side. Just the mention of Zhang He made Wen Chou furious.

"Zhang He is a coward!"

"Mr. Yuan treats you like this, even if you lose the fight, he won't bother with you!"

"Why did he collude with others and become a spy?!"

"Are you worthy of Lord Yuan's kindness?!"

Wen Chou was so angry that he started cursing loudly, and the beautiful Han accent kept coming out one sentence after another.

Huang Zhong was a little surprised when he heard this. If Wen Chou's bravery was only as good as his talking skills, he would be the one who would be defeated!

Xu Shu ordered his men to release Wen Chou. He walked to Wen Chou's side and pulled him to sit on a mound of earth.

He handed the wine bag to Wen Chou, then beat his chest and stamped his feet, denouncing Zhang He with a common hatred for the enemy.

Huang Zhong's eyelids kept twitching when he saw this scene. How strange, how strange. How did Military Advisor Xu become a close friend of Wen Chou? !
If it weren't for Xu Shu's face that was so familiar, Huang Zhong would have suspected that the person in front of him was not Xu Shu, but a drunkard from somewhere.

Even so, Huang Zhong did not dare to slack off at all. He paid close attention and kept a close eye on Wen Chou.

If Wen Chou had any intention, he would be able to stop him immediately. In Huang Zhong's heart, Xu Shu's safety was the top priority.

After all, what the lord lacks most is a counselor like Xu Junshi! If anything happens to Xu Junshi, how can I have the face to see the lord?
But after a while, the drunk Wen Chou started to put his arm around Xu Shu's shoulders, calling him "Brother, brother" over and over again.

Xu Shu also nodded with a red face and said, "Hey, brother."

This made Huang Zhong couldn't help laughing. Fortunately, the person in front of him was Xu Shu. If it was Zhang Fei, he would probably think that Zhang Fei was here to cheat him into drinking!

Perhaps it was because he was drunk, or perhaps it was because Xu Shu only asked questions about Zhang He, Wen Chou lost his guard and pulled Xu Shu's sleeve and started talking uncontrollably.

At first he was talking about Zhang He, but as he went on he became more outspoken and told everyone all the news he knew about Yuan's army.

Huang Zhong suddenly realized that this was Military Advisor Xu's purpose!

At the same time, Huang Zhong hurriedly urged his guards to take paper and write it down. While Wen Chou was talking, two or three soldiers holding jute paper were writing furiously.

Even Huang Zhong didn't know how much time had passed. Wen Chou burped and his eyelids felt as if they weighed a thousand pounds.

After a moment of trance, Wen Chou closed his eyes and began to snore.

"As expected of you, you are Military Advisor Xu!"

Huang Zhong was extremely excited when he saw the fruitful results in the hands of his guards.

But what puzzled Huang Zhong was why Military Advisor Xu did not respond?
He looked up quickly and saw Xu Shu staggering to his feet, his steps unsteady, as if he would fall down at the slightest breeze.

"!"

Huang Zhong walked briskly, quickly supported Xu Shu's arm, and asked with concern: "Military Advisor Xu? Are you okay?"

"No problem." Xu Shu finally responded. He held up his eyelids and waved at Huang Zhong. "That's right. That's right. This wine is too strong."

Huang Zhong wanted to say, "Military Advisor Xu, you are confused! The recipe of this wine was brought back by the Lord from the fairyland, so the strength is naturally very strong! I... I thought this was also within your expectations."

But it's too late to say these now. The most urgent task right now is to settle Xu Shu and Wen Chou.

Just when Huang Zhong was about to issue a military order, a messenger rushed up to Huang Zhong with an excited look on his face.

"General Huang, good news! Great news!"

"Good news? No good news is as important as Military Advisor Xu," Huang Zhong said with a serious expression.

However, the messenger's words came out at the same time as Huang Zhong's voice, "Second General, take the enemy general Gao Lan's head in the midst of thousands of troops! Yuan's army was badly defeated! Many people surrendered to you, Second General!"

“Hahaha!” Huang Zhong was overjoyed. He was happy for Guan Yu from the bottom of his heart. “Yun Chang is indeed very brave!”

Of course, while being happy, Huang Zhong did not forget the important matter at hand.

He called over three or five soldiers, and he and one of them supported Xu Shu, while the rest lifted up Wen Chou.

Wen Chou opened his eyes dazedly. He complained irritably, "What are you arguing about? Why were you arguing just now? You woke up the old man and made him fall into a deep sleep!"

Wen Chou, who was so outspoken, immediately aroused the dislike of the soldiers. However, due to Huang Zhong's order, they did not abandon Wen Chou.

But some of them retorted, "What happened? Yuan's army's main general Gao Lan was hacked to death by the second general! And Gao Lan's head was taken from the midst of thousands of soldiers!"

"what!"

Wen Chou, who had already felt the turbulence, could no longer lie down. He even suspected that he had heard it wrongly, but judging from the expressions of the soldiers of Huang Zhong's army, they were so sure.
But Gao Lan was a brave general after all, how could he be killed by Guan Yu in the midst of thousands of troops? !

You have to know that Guan Yu only has a hundred men!
Wen Chou's head was buzzing. No matter how confident Huang Zhong's soldiers were, he didn't believe that Guan Yu could take Gao Lan's head among thousands of soldiers!
But this persistence was shattered in the face of facts.

Someone in the crowd shouted, "Second General!"

Thousands of eyes converged in that direction, and Wen Chou's gaze was uncontrollably drawn there.

The impenetrable human wall was split apart at this moment, as if a god had cut a gap in it with an axe.

Wen Chou took a closer look and found that it was not the work of the gods, but the soldiers who spontaneously made way for them.

Guan Yu, riding a red warhorse, came slowly. He had a smooth journey and came in front of Huang Zhong and also in front of Wen Chou.

At this moment Wen Chou's face turned pale and his heart was beating non-stop. All his attention was drawn to the object in Guan Yu's hand and he couldn't move at all!

With just one glance, Wen Chou recognized the object. That object was exactly Gao Lan's head!
Wen Chou only felt his scalp tingling, his Adam's apple rolling, and he couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva.

At this moment, Guan Yu clasped his fists towards Huang Zhong and said, "General Huang, the enemy general has been killed!"

"Very good, very good." Huang Zhong praised without reservation: "Yun Chang is truly a god!"

To Wen Chou, these words were like falling into an icy cave, and his whole body felt cold. He could not help but close his eyes, and his chapped lips trembled as he said, "It's over, it's over, the big thing is over!"

Huang Zhong followed closely and shouted: "All troops, listen up! Yuan's army is just ahead. We should follow the Second General's footsteps and accept the surrendered soldiers!"

Changan
General Wei's Residence

Jian Yong took big strides with a smile on his face, walked through the crowded hall, and found Liu Bei who was working at his desk.

Seeing that Jian Yong was in a hurry, Liu Bei quickly stood up and walked towards him.

"Xianhe, is there any good news?" Liu Bei asked with a smile.

Jian Yong nodded, "Hahaha, what a great happy event! Zhang Wenyuan, Taishi Ziyi, and Xu Gongming will arrive in Chang'an soon!!!"

"good!"

Liu Bei's smile became brighter. This was indeed a happy event. Zhang Liao, Taishi Ci and Xu Huang had settled in the Western Regions for several years and had imprinted the prestige of the Han Dynasty deeply into the hearts of the countries in the Western Regions. All the countries in the Western Regions submitted to him and went from being in constant war to being able to sing and dance.

The three people who have achieved this are naturally outstanding, and it is time to reward them.

As for the Western Regions, there is no need for Zhang Liao, Taishi Ci and Xu Huang to be stationed there.

The candidate for the post of Protector General of the Western Regions was finalized after consultation among the ministers during a court meeting.

"I think the three will be conferred titles of nobility one by one this time." Jian Yong's face was full of smiles. Although they didn't spend much time together, he was happy for the three of them from the bottom of his heart. It was natural that meritorious men should be conferred titles of nobility!

"I just don't know what title I will be given." Jian Yong couldn't help but mutter.

Liu Bei patted Jian Yong on the shoulder and said, "We can't rush this matter. This matter depends on Your Majesty. We might as well prepare something."

"Prepare?" Jian Yong immediately understood. "Xuan De is going to welcome Wen Yuanzi Yi Gongming?"

"good."
