Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

"We can't help you, generals, you are fighting to break the back, so we thought, can we lead the way in front, so that we can escape easily."

Xia Houmao lowered his head and said guiltily: "I fled here in a panic, I'm sorry for you."

At this time, the sound of horseshoes came out of the valley, and the enemy would definitely guard the entrance and exit of the valley, so that they could be trapped to death even if they were trapped without attacking.

The valley is surrounded by steep cliffs that some people may be able to climb, but not everyone.

"I see, you must be spies of the Huns, deliberately come to kill us!" Cao Fu said angrily.

Xia Houchong's heart trembled, he quickly shook his head and said, "No, we don't want to do this either, sorry!"

"never mind!"

Chen Yang shouted: "Go and occupy a favorable position and hold the valley as soon as possible."

Without saying a word, Dian Wei raised his iron halberd to the entrance of the valley.

The entrance of the valley is relatively narrow, and too many people cannot pass through at the same time. As long as they occupy this position, they can temporarily kill the enemy.

What should be done next, Chen Yang hasn't thought of it yet, let's talk about it after getting through this difficulty.

As soon as Dian Wei walked to the entrance, the enemy cavalry came. He stabbed an enemy under his horse with his iron halberd, and shouted: "Hold here!"

The rest of the cavalry guarded the entrance and exit, and all the enemies who rushed over were killed without exception.

In the end, the enemy also knew that he could not be reckless and could not break through the entrance and exit, so he had to stop first and block the entrance and exit from the outside.

The fight tonight finally subsided.

However, the hearts of everyone in the valley could not find peace.

They are in a predicament like this, and they can't break out at all.

The enemy may not need to attack, they may starve to death inside.

"Shopkeeper Chen, what should we do?"

Dian Wei ordered people to keep guarding the entrance, walked back and said, "Why don't you give me 1000 people, and I'll kill them right away and lure them away?"

"no!"

Chen Yang counted the number of people just now, and at the end of the fight, there were only more than 1000 cavalry left, and the rest were all killed. He shook his head and said, "Let's defend this place first, and there will be a way."

He looked at the high mountains around him, thinking to himself, can he climb up?

Although the lower end of the mountain is steep, it is relatively gentle after passing this steep part.

As long as someone climbs up and hangs down the rope, they may be able to leave alive, but these horses have to be discarded.

"Say, are you spies?"

Cao Fu pointed at Xia Houchong and shouted angrily: "If you hadn't attracted the enemy, we would have been surrounded and ambushed? Moreover, the ambush came as soon as you appeared!"

When everyone heard Cao Fu's voice, they also looked at Brother Xia Houchong at the same time, with deep doubts in their eyes.

They only had dozens of personal soldiers alive, all of them stood by their side.

Xia Houheng snorted coldly, and said: "We are in a desperate situation, and you led the way. Did you surrender to the Huns? I really don't know, how could Uncle Yuan Rang have a son like you!"

Hearing their yelling and cursing, Brother Xia Houchong turned pale.

Xia Houchong clenched his fists, his knuckles turned white.

Xia Houmao wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end.

"We're really not traitors, and if we were, we wouldn't need to run away with you."

Xia Houchong hurriedly explained to himself.

"This is just your trick!"

Cao Fu snorted coldly: "If it wasn't like this, how could we trust you?"

After being reminded by Cao Fu, Chen Yang thought about it seriously for a while, and felt that these were not unreasonable.

Chase, ambush and valley.

All connected, all things are possible.

At the beginning, Chen Yang didn't think about them. After all, Xiahou Dun had to save face, and their father and Chen Yang had a good relationship.

Chen Yang's nerves have been a little tense recently, and he didn't consider the possible consequences of their appearance.

If they had no problems, Chen Yang would not be able to convince himself.

"General, please help us decide!" Xia Houchong said hastily.

Chen Yang thought for a moment, then said coldly, "Tie them up first."

"Yes!"

As soon as Xia Houheng heard it, he immediately acted.

They wanted to resist, but after struggling for a moment, they let Xia Houheng be tied up.

Xia Houmao said: "General, we are really innocent, you can't do this!"

"innocent?"

A series of thoughts emerged in Chen Yang's mind, and he said, "If I'm not wrong, Cao Pi should have cooperated with the Huns again. You are the ones Cao Pi sent out on purpose to contact me, right?"

They were shocked, and this time there was no rebuttal.

There is no reason to refute.

"It's not a coincidence that you can find me. It should be the Huns who deduced my location based on my escape from the royal court and told you."

Chen Yang continued: "The purpose of Cao Pi's cooperation with the Huns is to drive me out, and you were mixed with me before, so sending you to contact me can dispel my worries. I have to say that Cao Pi's method is successful. Yes, when I first saw you, I didn't have any doubts about you, and I even believed what Cao Fu and the others said."

They bowed their heads and said nothing.

Chen Yang was right in everything, and they acquiesced in doing so.

"Why are you doing this?" Xia Houheng asked angrily.

They continued to remain silent.

For Xiahou Dun's sake, Chen Yang didn't kill them, because he was afraid that new conflicts would be provoked. If he could still escape, he should take them back to Xiahou Dun for disposal.

It was completely quiet outside, Chen Yang didn't careless, went to the entrance and exit in person, and stood firm with the soldiers.

"Wang Yue, do you think you can climb up there?"

Chen Yang looked towards the east of the valley, there was a not so steep cliff, and said: "If possible, hang down the rope, this may be the only way we can escape."

Wang Yue thought for a while, then he picked up a torch and walked over to start climbing.

Xia Houheng and the others also wanted to try, but they were not powerful enough.

Although Wang Yue's climbing ability is not as good as that of the Xiongnu princess, it is not weak.

He jumped up with a run-up, stabbed the iron sword into the cliff, stabilized his figure, and continued to climb up. After tossing for almost half an hour, he finally reached the not-so-steep hillside.

"My lord, our rope is not long enough!"

After Wang Yue fixed the rope, it hung down, and it was only half the length, far from enough to climb up.

They came to fight, not to climb mountains, and they didn't bring enough rope.

"Peel the bark and make the rope." Chen Yang said.

Wang Yue felt that this was feasible, so he inserted his sword into the trunk of a tree, began to peel off the bark, and kneaded it into a rope.

He was still on the mountain, found some tough vines, let them hang down first, and let some soldiers climb up to work.

There are no redundant trees below the hillside, only the bark can be peeled from the hillside.
