The Assassin Empire of the Three Kingdoms
Chapter 24 Hulao Pass
It's almost the end of the year.After passing through Jinyang, the atmosphere of Chinese New Year has become much stronger. Perhaps because it is located in the Central Plains, the lives of the people must be better than those outside Jinyang.It's just a little bit, there are still a lot of beggars on the street, and children and women can be seen everywhere.Before arriving at Shangdang, the dry food they brought was almost gone, and the rest of the journey could only be ignored.
Snowflakes fluttered down, and the air suddenly became cold.Wang Qiang made it clear that the order from the master was to arrive in Luoyang before the end of the year, and there were only a few days before the end of the year.So they can only go forward in the snow.Several people bought some thick clothes and rushed to Luoyang without stopping.The water of the Yellow River has frozen, and the thick ice can fully carry a carriage.This saves money on hiring a boat.
Three days before the end of the year, they arrived at Hulao Pass.As the gateway to the east of Luoyang, Hulao Pass got its name because King Zhou Mu imprisoned the tiger here.The terrain of Hulaoguan is dangerous, connecting Songyue Mountain in the south and the Yellow River in the north, with criss-crossing mountains and ridges, forming a natural danger.There is a situation where one man guards the gate and ten thousand men cannot open it. It has become a battleground for military strategists of all dynasties.Long Fei didn't care about these things. Hearing the name of Hulaoguan, it immediately reminded him of the Sanying battle against Lu Bu in Hulaoguan.I came here at a good time, and I can still catch up with this good show. I really want to see what Liu Guanzhang looks like now.
When you enter Hulao Pass, you will see the army, and there are troops everywhere!There are all kinds of people with guns, knives, arrows, horses and cars.It turned out to be a long-lost hometown dialect.The pure northwest dialect made Long Fei feel very cordial.No need to guess, these people were all sent by Dong Zhuo to defend Hulao Pass.
Long Fei showed his native dialect, and made a big deal, and soon became friends with this group of people.After several inquiries, it turned out that Zhang Ji, one of Dong Zhuo's four famous generals, was stationed at Hulao Pass.If you talk about Zhang Ji, you have to talk about it carefully. Others may not know it, but Long Fei knows it best. Zhang Ji has two men who will be unknown heroes in the Three Kingdoms in the future. One is Zhang Ji's nephew Zhang Xiu. Even if Cao Cao and Liu Biao were stationed in the isolated city of Wancheng, they would not dare to shush.The other is even more famous, known as Jia Xu, a poisoner, who can be as famous as Guo Jia and Zhuge Liang.
A large group of people are drinking happily in the wine shop.There was a sudden commotion in the street.From a distance, dozens of war horses can be seen galloping towards the city gate.The people and soldiers on the street avoided one after another. If they were a little slower, they would either receive a whip or be knocked flying tens of meters, and then trampled by horseshoes.The voice in the restaurant suddenly became quieter, and everyone quietly watched the dozen or so horses galloping towards them.
Those horses are all good horses at first glance, especially the one in front, which is red all over and has white fur around its four hooves.Eight feet tall, two feet long, thin waist, long legs, round belly.He ran up and strolled in the garden, but the knight on the horse didn't move at all.That guy was young, with a golden helmet and armor, a sword hanging from his waist, and a fiery red cloak fluttering in the wind, with an extravagant air.
"Ah..., mother..., mother..." A four or five-year-old child was frightened by the sudden panic and didn't know what to do. He stood in the middle of the street and cried loudly while calling his mother.
Zhang Xiu laughed loudly: "Brothers, whoever can knock that child into the air will be rewarded with a jar of good wine!" The people behind immediately regained their spirits and added a few more whips, and the speed of the horse suddenly increased a lot.Seeing a horse go towards the child, a woman outside the crowd cried and cried, and was already limp on the ground, begging to let his child go.
Long Fei picked up a small wine glass on the table and threw it out with his wrist.The galloping horse was suddenly hit heavily on the head by something.The horse was frightened, its front hooves raised, and the man stood up.The knight on the horse didn't pay attention, and was thrown off at once, falling heavily on the ground.The galloping horses behind had no time to stop.A few screams were heard, the guy had been stepped on once, and lay there motionless.
Just as Long Fei was throwing the wine glass, Zhao Yun rushed out of the wine shop in one stride.He took the terrified child out from under the horse's hooves and handed it to the woman who was about to faint.
"You're causing trouble again, didn't you agree to leave it alone?" Wang Qiang said angrily.
Long Fei smiled: "I'm used to it, I must pay attention next time! Madam please supervise!"
Zhang Xiu pulled the rein, and the red horse stopped steadily.More than a dozen personal guards have surrounded Zhao Yun in the center.Turning around and looking at the guy lying on the ground without moving, Zhang Xiu said angrily: "Who are you? The person who is so bold that you dare to hit me! Do you know where this is? Who am I?"
Zhao Yun snorted coldly: "This is Hulaoguan. My surname is Zhao, my name is Yun, and my name is Zilong. No matter who you are, I will take care of you if you run into someone with a horse!"
"Okay...!" Long Fei shouted loudly, and the surrounding people also responded.
Zhang Xiu glanced around, and the frightened people quickly lowered their heads and silenced their voices.He turned his head and looked at Zhao Yun again: "Zhao Yun? Humph! If you hurt my man, you will die. Brothers, take it down for me!" More than a dozen cavalry rushed up, and two of them got off their horses and came towards Zhao Yun.
Suddenly someone in the wine shop said loudly: "Dong Zhuo's soldiers are so domineering, no wonder they are spurned by the people, this alone is a sign of defeat!" This sentence can be regarded as frightening everyone inside and outside the wine shop.This is Hulao Pass, the territory of Luoyang.Who is the biggest in Luoyang?Not the emperor but Dong Zhuo!There is only one reason to explain such insults to Dong Zhuo in front of Dong Zhuo's subordinates on Dong Zhuo's territory, courting death!
Everyone looked at Long Fei, and the Xiliang soldiers who had been drinking with him just now hurriedly got up and backed away.Zhang Xiu said angrily: "Where did the madman come from, he insulted the Grand Master, and he still didn't take my corpse to pieces!"
A few more cavalry dismounted and entered the wine shop.There was only a sound of ping-ping-pong-pong inside, and a few cavalrymen who went in came out again with bruised noses and swollen faces.On the street, Zhao Yun suddenly shot down the two people surrounding him with ease, dodged, dodged the sword cut by Zhang Xiu, and entered the wine shop.
Zhang Xiu looked at his subordinates, who had never been so angry before, and said angrily: "Waste, they are all a bunch of waste!" Then he shouted at the Xiliang soldiers who were watching the excitement, "Go together, let's do it!" Uncle raised you white-eyed wolves for nothing!"
"Hahaha..." Long Fei smiled, and led the crowd out of the wine shop, looking up and down at Zhang Xiu. The young man Zhang Xiu is not bad, he is a few years older than Zhao Yun, his skin is not as good as Zhao Yun's, his bronze complexion is healthier, and his appearance is not as good. Yes, thick eyebrows, big eyes, nose, straight mouth, red horse and red cloak are very majestic.
Zhang Xiu also looked at Long Fei, coarse cloth clothes, and thin-soled shoes.He is tall, and his whole body is very well-proportioned. A glance with two eyes is unforgettable for a lifetime, because he can't see anything from Long Fei's eyes.Zhang Xiu held the sword: "Who are you? Are you with him?"
"What do you say?"
Seeing the arrogance of Long Fei and the others, Zhang Xiu became even angrier: "Do it! Give it to me, grab the leader, I will reward you with a thousand dollars!"
The money offensive really worked. Some Xiliang soldiers were tempted and slowly surrounded Long Fei. Someone took the lead and soon many people followed.Zhao Yun, Talun, and Wang Qiang immediately besieged the city in a circle to guard against the surrounding Xiliang soldiers.Long Fei looked indifferent, and walked towards Zhang Xiu instead: "Why bother? It's not worthwhile for us to fight such a big battle. You don't need to do it, I will go with you!"
Long Fei stretched out his hands, and the Xiliang soldier looked up at Zhang Xiu who was on the horse.Zhang Xiu snorted coldly: "I thought he would be a man who would rather die than surrender, but he turned out to be a softie, tied him up for me, and brought him back to the house to deal with him!"
"Stop!" shouted angrily.Xiliang soldiers hastily stopped.On the outskirts of the crowd, a middle-aged general with a golden helmet and armor sat majestically on his horse, looking angrily at the group of Xiliang soldiers.Everyone gave way one after another, and the general rode his horse inside.Zhang Xiu got off his horse and saluted, "Uncle, why are you here?"
"If I don't come, you're going to turn the world upside down, aren't you?" Zhang Ji stared at Zhang Xiu.
"They insulted the grand master, I want to arrest them and hand them over to my uncle..." Zhang Xiu brought the topic to this matter.
Long Fei looked at the two uncles and nephews, and said to Zhang Ji: "I said General Zhang, you should take good care of your nephew, all the people and soldiers can clearly see the horses on the street hurting people! Right?"
"Yes! Yes! Almost killed!" Someone in the crowd responded, and the cooperation was perfect.
Zhang Xiu glared at those people: "Don't shout! Shut up all of them!"
Zhang Ji pulled out his whip and hit Zhang Xiu on the back with a slap.Those who shouted immediately fell silent: "How many times have I told you about unfilial things, but you just don't listen, come here, tie me up, and go back and deal with you!" Zhang Xiu tied it up.Zhang Ji glanced at Long Fei, turned his horse's head and walked towards the periphery of the crowd.
As soon as Zhang Ji left, the Xiliang soldiers lost their interest in drinking, let alone drinking with this man who scolded Dong Zhuo, they all dispersed.Long Fei suddenly became the hero in the hearts of the common people who dared to fight against the powerful.The shopkeepers in the wine shop greeted them with smiles, and kept serving wine and food.The woman with the child hurriedly knelt down and thanked the benefactor for saving his life. Zhao Yun quickly helped him up and sent him out with some kind words.
Although the matter is not big, it is considered a good thing, and several people are also happy.While drinking, a man dressed as a scribe in a gray cloth gown held a wine glass in his hand and smiled: "May I invite some strong men to have a drink?"
Long Fei raised his head and saw that this person was about 30 years old, with a small mustache on his chin, small but restrained eyes, his long gown was a little worn but clean. "Sir, please sit down!"
The two drank three cups in a row.Only then did Long Fei say: "Down here, Long Fei, these few are my friends, if you dare to ask me, sir..."
"Long's surname comes from the Yulong family, and we can see Tianshui, so we are still from the same hometown!" The man shook his head slightly again: "As far as I know, there are not many people with the surname Long in the world, and the most famous one is the general of Chu. Moreover, there are few people who are famous after that!"
Long Fei said: "My father's surname is Long, so I have my surname Long. It has nothing to do with that dragon. I am me!"
"Hahaha..." The man laughed a few times, and drank the wine in the glass with his neck up: "Jia Xu admires the heroic spirit of a strong man. If a strong man trusts me, follow me to see General Zhang Ji. He must be reused by General Zhang!"
Snowflakes fluttered down, and the air suddenly became cold.Wang Qiang made it clear that the order from the master was to arrive in Luoyang before the end of the year, and there were only a few days before the end of the year.So they can only go forward in the snow.Several people bought some thick clothes and rushed to Luoyang without stopping.The water of the Yellow River has frozen, and the thick ice can fully carry a carriage.This saves money on hiring a boat.
