The Invincible Hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 93

Zhao Xiang stood with Dou Dou on the tower in Yuanshi County, quietly waiting for the coming of the New Year.

There was velvet-like snow in the air, and Zhao Xiang wrapped himself in the brocade robe that wrapped Dou Dou's body.Wen Sheng said: "It's a bit cold, let's go back first."

Dou Dou narrowed his eyes into a crescent moon and shook his head: "No."

Zhao Xiang shook his head helplessly, looking at Dou Dou with pampering eyes.

A sturdy man walked up to the tower and bowed to Zhao Xiang: "General."

Zhao Xiang looked at the person coming, but waved his hand: "It's Jun Yi, what's the matter?"

"General, the banquet has been prepared, and the governor and military adviser are waiting for you to go over."

Zhao Xiang nodded: "Got it, I'll be there in a while."

Zhang He bowed to Zhao Xiang and retreated from the wall.

Zhao Xiang looked at Dou Dou and said softly, "Let's go, Xiao Douer."

Zhao Xiang took Dou Dou's hand and walked down the wall.

They walked slowly on the streets of the county seat, and the people on the street greeted Zhao Xiang and Dou Dou respectfully.

Zhao Xiang and Dou Dou smiled at the corners of their mouths, and nodded frequently to the civilians who saluted them.

Behind them, the burly Dian Wei followed silently with two big short halberds on his back.

In the prefect's mansion, Tian Yu stood at the door to welcome the guests.

Seeing Zhao Xiang coming with Dou Dou, Tian Yu hastily bowed his head and saluted: "My lord, my lord, mistress."

It was the first time for Dou Dou to attend such a big event with Zhao Xiang. Hearing Tian Yu's words, his face blushed and he lowered his head.

Sensing Dou Dou's nervousness, Zhao Xiang smiled slightly, squeezed her little hand tightly, and asked Tian Yu, "Have you all come yet?"

Tian Yu replied: "All civil and military officials from the county and the Blood Soul Army are here."

Zhao Xiang nodded slightly, and led Dou Dou into the prefect's mansion.

Tian Yu hurriedly sang: "Changshan prefect Zhao Ziyu, and his wife Zhao Dou are having a banquet!"

When Zhao Xiang and Dou Dou walked into the compound of the prefect's mansion, dozens of tables of meals had already been set up here.

At this moment, all the people present stood up and looked at the two of them, saluted and sang at the same time: "Minister and so on, pay homage to the envoy, to the envoy's wife, and congratulations on the new year!"

Zhao Xiang led Dou Dou to the main seat, raised his hands and then lowered them: "Everyone, please sit down."

Everyone took their seats according to the words.

Zhao Xiang glanced around, and saw familiar faces one by one.

Zhao Xiang raised his eyebrows: "Jun Yi."

Zhang He stepped out immediately: "The last general is here!"

"Who is on duty in the Blood Soul Army today?"

Zhang He cupped his hands and replied, "Lieutenant Hengshui: Liao Hua!"

Zhao Xiang nodded slightly, turned his head and said to Xun Yan: "Xiu Ruo, first arrange ten tables of meals and send them to the Blood Soul Army. No wine is allowed."

Xun Yangong promised.

A touch of emotion flashed in Zhang He's eyes.

Picking up a bottle of sake, Zhao Xiang said slowly to the crowd:
"This general, Zhao Xiang, was originally a random soldier in Wancheng. It is all thanks to your support to get here today. I will be here first, thank you!"

He raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

Everyone present applauded, but Dou Dou's eyes flashed a trace of worry.

Xue Ge stroked his palm lightly, picked up a wine bottle as well, and said loudly:
"The so-called master respects his ministers, and the ministers also respect the master. Since the master has made a toast, we must pay back. Do you think so?"

"What the military adviser said is true, my old Pan comes first!" Pan Feng, who had just recovered from her injury, directly filled a sea bowl and respected Zhao Xiang: "I wish the princess a happy new year!"

He raised his head and poured it into his mouth, the wine flowed down from the corner of Pan Feng's mouth, wetting his beard like steel needles.

The rest of the people raised their wine bottles one after another and saluted Zhao Xiang: "Minister and so on, I wish the princess and mother a happy birthday! A happy marriage for a hundred years!"

The blood soul army camp, Liao Hua had just finished inspecting the sentries in the camp, and he always felt a little restless after returning.

"Zhao Yu!" Liao Hua shouted loudly.

The door curtain was lifted, and a young man with temperament and appearance similar to Zhao Yun walked into the tent and handed his hand: "General!"

"Who is guarding the city gate today?"

Zhao Yu was taken aback when he heard the words, and then replied: "General Qi, Chen Lan is in charge of the capital."

Liao Hua frowned: "Out of the five hundred soldiers, there are less than three hundred including those on rotation, no!"

Liao Hua took the saber off the shelf again and hung it on his waist: "Zhao Yu, I'll take someone to the city gate to have a look again. You stay in Dazhai, don't neglect!"

Zhao Yu's expression was cold, and he clasped his hands and replied sharply, "No!"

At the city gate, Chen Lan was chatting and joking with his brother Pao Ze.

"Hey, don't look at the snow that is not falling that day, the wind blows like a knife, it's cold!" said an old soldier with his head tucked into his cloth armor.

With a frozen thin stick in her mouth, Chen Lan echoed, "Who says it's not, the wind is blowing like hell."

Chen Lan's lieutenant smiled and said, "General, I heard from the military adviser that the wind is especially strong when the city gate is open. If we close the city gate, there may be no wind."

Chen Lan shook her head: "It can't be closed, the Lord said that the new year will start tonight, and there is no curfew."

The lieutenant continued to laugh and said, "The lower official also said it casually."

In a street near the city gate, two men in black looked particularly inconspicuous in the shadows.

A man in black asked, "Is everything arranged?"

Another replied: "Yes!"

"Okay, act tonight!"

"promise!"

At the gates of each house, the residents of the Yuan family who were playing around in the neighborhood alleys did not notice that hundreds of people dressed in black were quickly gathering towards the largest south gate.

Outside Yuanshi County, another man in black stood in front of a group of carriages.

The old man who led the team saw the man in black's face change slightly: "Why are you here?!"

"Come here and see if you took everything."

A look of dismay appeared on the old man's face: "Our Wei family never regrets our promises!"

The man in black smiled softly: "Of course I know, it's just that you have to see what you should see."

The old man spread his hands helplessly: "Then you can see."

The man in black stepped forward and yanked open the curtain covering the carriage, and rows of ordnance appeared in front of his eyes.

In addition to the Han sword and long halberd outside Megatron, there are also spikes and heavy arrows!There are even dozens of rhubarb crossbows and thousands of small jackdaw arrows.

These deadly blades gleamed coldly in the bleak moonlight.

The old man said proudly, "How?"

The man in black nodded slowly: "Not bad, really good."

Suddenly, dozens of black figures appeared around the convoy, surrounding the small convoy.

The old man was surprised: "You, what do you want to do?!"

The man in black made a gesture, and dozens of shadows made way for a backward passage.

The man in black said slowly: "Okay, your goods have been received, you can go."

The old man was taken aback, and then cursed: "It's such a cold day, you stop all the carriages and let us walk back to Hedong?"

A fierce look appeared in the eyes of the man in black, and a delicate dagger shot out from his sleeve, and was precisely inserted into the wooden board of the carriage next to the old man's head.

The old man trembled.

The man in black said coldly: "I don't have time to talk to you, just stick a stick of incense, if you don't leave, you will die!"

Gritting his teeth, the old man finally turned around and waved fiercely: "Let's go!" He turned around and left with a dozen guys in the motorcade.

A cold light flickered in the eyes of the man in black, and he said in a cold voice: "Check the supplies, change clothes! Load the car! Get ready for action!"

Dozens of black shadows said in unison: "No!"
