Reborn in the Three Kingdoms

text

Zhang Xiu and Xin Pi secretly discussed in the inner hall for half an hour.Then Simpi left contentedly like a client who came out of a brothel.

"Come on." Zhang Xiuyang said.

"General." Zhang Xiu's confidant promised to bring Han Tong in.

"Send someone to capture Chen Chu's envoy!"

Han Tong was slightly startled, "General, wouldn't this mean breaking with the North Army?"

Zhang Xiuyan said with a cold look: "I have decided to unite with Yuan Shao to fight against the Northern Army!" Seeing that Han Tong was still hesitating there, he said in a deep voice: "What are you still doing in a daze? Go!"

Seeing that Zhang Xiu had made up his mind, Han Tong had no choice but to agree.Immediately, more than a hundred soldiers left the prefect's mansion under the leadership of Han Tong.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

There is a small courtyard not far from Wancheng Taishou's Mansion. Although it is not big, the environment is quiet and elegant, and it is a good place to live.At this moment, the person living in this courtyard is not under Zhang Xiu's command, but an envoy sent by Chen Chu, Sima Yi's elder brother Sima Lang.Chen Chu didn't plan to send Sima Lang there because the trip was quite risky, but Sima Lang pleaded for his order, and Zhou Yu analyzed the importance of the trip, so Chen Chu finally agreed to Sima Lang's request.

There were heavy footsteps outside the courtyard, the flickering fire, and the faint sound of swords and soldiers.Sima Lang, who was writing something in the study, couldn't help frowning, feeling a bad premonition in his heart.Standing up and walking out of the study, Yang Wei, the captain of the iron wall guards sent by Chen Chu, ran over anxiously, and a dozen iron wall guards followed behind him.

"What's going on?" Sima Lang asked in a deep voice.

"Zhang Xiu's subordinate Han Tong led people to surround the yard! Obviously he wanted to harm Mr.! Sir, I will take my brother to protect Mr. and kill him!" Yang Wei said anxiously, and all the iron guards around him drew their knives out of their sheaths.

"Wait a minute! We are in the heart of the other party, it is impossible for us to rush out with dozens of people! And the worst may not be the case yet!" Sima Lang said indifferently.After speaking, he walked to the gate of the courtyard.Yang Wei hurriedly led the iron guards to follow closely behind.

When they came to the gate of the courtyard, four iron guards were standing against the gate, and more than a dozen iron guards had drawn their knives out of their sheaths behind the gate.

"Yang Wei, order them to open the gate!"

"Sir!" Yang Wei frowned, his worry was beyond words.

"I think there is still room for things to turn around, otherwise they would start knocking on the door, how could it be as quiet as it is now!" Sima Lang said with a confident smile.

Seeing Sima Lang's insistence, Yang Wei had no choice but to order: "Open the gate of the courtyard!"

The gate of the courtyard was opened, and the flames shone in. Hundreds of soldiers were lined up in front of the gate, holding torches and weapons, and a general was sitting astride his horse.

As soon as the two sides met, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Sima Lang looked at it for a while, then raised his foot and walked out of the courtyard. Yang Wei immediately led the iron guards to guard Sima Lang.

"Yang Wei, you all go back!"

Yang Wei was taken aback, "Sir!"

"I order you to go back!"

Yang Weifa had no choice but to lead the iron guards back to the yard, but they all stayed at the door, watching the situation intently, and they were ready to rush up at any time.

Sima Lang clasped his fists towards Han Tong who was on the high horse and said, "Why is General Han coming so late?"

"My general has an order, sir, please come to the house to explain!" Han Tong's tone was rather polite.

Sima Lang smiled slightly, "In that case, General, please lead the way!"

"Please!" Han Tong made a gesture of please, and the soldiers on the side moved out of the way.

Sima Lang turned his head to Yang Wei who was in the yard and said, "You guys stay here in the yard, I'll go see General Zhang."

Yang Wei clasped his fists at Sima Lang and said, "Sir, please take care!" Sima Lang smiled and nodded.

Sima Lang followed Han Tong all the way to the prefect's mansion, and then led by Han Tong to the inner hall.The atmosphere in the inner hall was very strange, not only Zhang Xiu alone, but also four fierce-faced sword-axe fighters on the left and right.

Sima Lang sneered secretly, cupped his fists towards Zhang Xiu and said, "General Zhang."

Zhang Xiu stared at Sima Lang coldly, and asked, "Do you know why I invited you here, sir?"

Sima Lang glanced at the knives and axes on both sides, and said with a smile: "General Zhang Kuiye sent troops to invite me here, and prepared knives and axes in the hall. I guess it's not to welcome me!"

Zhang Xiu sneered and said, "Mr. is a smart man. That's right, I'm going to take off Mr.'s head to sacrifice to the flag today!" The four knife and axemen took a sudden step forward, bursting out with murderous aura.

Sima Lang laughed out loud, with no trace of fear on his face.

Zhang Xiu was taken aback for a moment, and then secretly felt admiration. Those who can still laugh in this situation are worthy of respect.

"Why are you laughing, sir? Don't you know that your body is about to be decapitated?" Zhang Xiu asked, her tone softened.

Sima Lang stopped laughing, shook his head and sighed: "I laugh at General Zhang's generation of heroes who are willing to be used as tools by others!"

Zhang Xiu's face turned cold, "Could it be that if I cooperate with you, am I no longer a tool?"

Sima Lang clasped his fists solemnly and said, "General Zhang, can you listen to me?"

Zhang Xiu narrowed his eyes and looked at Sima Lang for a moment, then nodded and said: "You can tell. But even if you can spread lotus flowers with your tongue, you will die today!" Sima Lang smiled indifferently.

After thinking for a while, Sima Lang asked: "I think Yuan Shao's envoy must have encouraged General Zhang with some past events, and also promised to give Runan to General Zhang?" Zhang Xiu was slightly startled, but did not speak. [

Seeing Zhang Xiu's reaction, Sima Lang immediately confirmed his guess.Then he asked: "General Zhang thinks that the allied forces with Yuan Shao can defeat our army?"

Zhang Xiu frowned slightly, "Although the Zhengbei Army is strong, if our army joins forces with Yuan Shao, the outcome will be five to five!" Very jealous.

Hearing what Zhang Xiu said, Sima Lang's confidence increased.Smiling slightly, he said again: "Regardless of the final outcome of this battle, the general has never thought about it. After the matter is completed, will Yuan Shao really give up the rich Runan to the general as promised?"

"This...?" Zhang Xiu frowned tightly, his expression uncertain.

Knowing that Zhang Xiu had been shaken, Sima Lang hit the rails while it was hot: "If the general cooperates with our army, we can easily take Runan now!"

Zhang Xiu was taken aback, he still didn't understand.

Sima Lang continued: "Now my lord has led an army to approach Luoyang, Yuan Shao will definitely transfer all the main force to Luoyang to resist my lord! At most there are only old, weak, sick and disabled guards in Runan!" Sima Lang's voice was full of temptation smell.

Speaking of this, if Zhang Xiu still doesn't understand, then he is really a beast.

Zhang Xiu's eyes lit up, and the color of excitement shone in his eyes.I thought to myself: Why didn’t I think of such a simple truth?If I lead an army to raid Runan at this time, wouldn't I be defeated in one battle!

"General Zhang, it looks like we can talk in detail!" Sima Lang laughed.

Zhang Xiu reacted, nodded quickly and said: "Yes, that's right." Then he said to the knife and ax hand beside him: "You all step back!"

The atmosphere that followed was very harmonious.

…………

Near midnight, Sima Lang returned to the small courtyard, and Yang Wei and others who were waiting anxiously finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sir, you're finally back! If you're a little bit late, I'm going to kill you at the prefect's mansion!"

Sima Lang chuckled, and then said to Yang Wei: "I have basically convinced Zhang Xiu, but..." Sima Lang revealed a worried expression.

"Sir, is there something wrong?" Yang Wei asked.

Sima Lang glanced at Yang Wei and asked: "If you want to assassinate someone in the post, can you do it?"

Although Yang Wei didn't understand what Sima Lang meant, he replied affirmatively: "Although there are soldiers guarding the station, we can easily do it with our ability!"

Sima Lang nodded, thinking.Yang Wei stared at Sima Lang. Although his heart was full of doubts, he didn't talk nonsense.

After a while, Sima Lang said to Yang Wei solemnly: "Yang Wei, take all the people to the posthouse to attack and kill Yuan Shao's envoy tonight!"

Yang Wei showed excitement, clasped his fists

swear.

"This matter is of great importance, you must not miss it!" Sima Lang urged. "Don't worry sir!"

————————————————————

The posthouse at night seemed very quiet, and several soldiers at the door were dozing off with their guns in their arms.There are two groups of soldiers patrolling the courtyard in the post house, each with ten soldiers, and everyone seems absent-minded.

Yuan Shao's emissary, Xin Pi, settled in the Xikua courtyard. Xin Pi lived in the main room, and more than 50 followers lived in the side room next to it.The west courtyard was pitch black and very quiet.

Dozens of black shadows escaped the patrolling soldiers on the street and came to the outer wall of the post house. After observing for a while, they quickly climbed over the wall and entered the post house, with very vigorous and agile skills.Then he went straight to the west courtyard.These men in black were none other than Yang Wei and his dozens of iron guards.

When approaching the west courtyard, a group of patrol soldiers came.The iron guards quickly dispersed into the darkness to hide.

When the patrol team casually passed by not far from where Yang Wei was hiding, an iron guard next to Yang Wei cut Yang Wei's neck, and he was asking for instructions on whether to kill the patrol team.Yang Wei shook his head, and Yang Wei didn't want to make extra trouble if it wasn't necessary.However, at this moment, a patrol soldier ran towards Yang Wei, the iron guards were startled, everyone held the handle of the knife, and was about to draw the knife out of its sheath.

The patrolman stopped only two steps away from Yang Wei, unbuttoned his trousers, and then the sound of "Xi Xi Suo Suo" sounded, Yang Wei couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, but he still held his breath, not daring to make any movement, So as not to be discovered by this patrol soldier who is close at hand.The patrolman urinated at Yang Wei's feet and then left.

After the patrol team turned out of the arch, dozens of iron guards immediately came out from the darkness.Immediately, he came to the entrance of Xikuayuan, Yang Wei left a dozen or so iron guards hiding in the darkness of the entrance, thinking that they would respond, and he led the others into the courtyard.Divided into several teams and sneaked into each side room, Yang Wei led two iron guards and gently pried open the door of the main room. ! ~!
