Shuhan

Chapter 222 Wu Dun: Zang Ba is my best friend!

Jiujiang County.

Yinling City.

Yinling City stands in the Yang of the Huaihe River, on the main road from Linhuai to Shouchun, and from Linhuai to Hefei.

The city was first built in the Qin Dynasty and continued to be abandoned in the Southern Qi Dynasty.In Wang Mang's new dynasty, Yin Mausoleum was once changed to "Yin Lu", both of which belonged to Jiujiang County and Huainan County.

At the end of the Qin Dynasty, when the Chu and Han were fighting, Xiang Yu lost his way to Yinling Daze, and was finally caught up by the Han army, and he was defeated in Wujiang.

at this time.

The night is deep.

Among the reeds in the Yinling Daze, a strange soldier is ambushing.

Cao Xiu led the tiger and leopard cavalry to sneak into the place where the food team of Xuzhou soldiers must pass.

"How? Is the Xuzhou food team coming?"

For several days in a row, the tiger and leopard cavalry led by Cao Xiu had plundered ten Xuzhou grain transportation teams.

现在
This is No.11.

The reason for such high efficiency is that tigers and leopards are invincible in field battles, and the scouts are scattered dozens of miles away, as if they have opened the whole map, so it is clear where there is a food transport team.

The second is because Xuzhou has an internal response and sends news at any time, so Cao Xiu has repeatedly succeeded.

"General, the Xuzhou grain transportation convoy is three miles away. There are hundreds of carts of grain and grass, and they will arrive in no time!"

"Okay! Tell the brothers to prepare for the battle, and the stolen things will belong to them as long as they can be recited!"

Cao Xiu immediately ordered the ambush.

Under the night, the tiger and leopard riders in the shadows launched their actions fiercely and tacitly.Wearing black battle robes, they hide among the thick reeds and grass, their eyes are as sharp as cheetahs, quietly waiting for the opportunity.

In the silence of the night, the grain team of the Xuzhou soldiers marched mightily. Although the accompanying guards were on high alert, they were unaware of the ambush of the tiger and leopard cavalry.

suddenly!

Dangdang Dangdang!
Da da da!
The gong sounded loudly, and the loud sound pierced the night sky, and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry immediately launched an attack.

They are like ghosts in the dark, jumping up, as fast as lightning.

The silent night was broken in an instant, and the sound of noisy battles resounded through the sky.

The tiger and leopard cavalry charged the grain team of the Xuzhou soldiers with the force of thunder, and the enemy was caught off guard and panicked.

ambush?

Another ambush? !
So what did Wu Dun say?

The tiger and leopard cavalry will not be dispatched tonight!

The grain transportation officer's eyes were about to burst, and he immediately shouted: "Get out, don't worry about the grain and grass, get out!"

Food and grass must not be guaranteed.

Now, let's save my life.

"Where will the thief escape?"

Cao Xiu raised his spear high, full of murderous aura, and attacked the defenders of the grain transportation team like a tiger.

puff puff~
Under the impact of the war horse, Cao Xiu's head was picked off by Cao Xiu's spear as soon as the grain transport official said a word.

"Clean the battlefield, leave no one behind!"

The tiger and leopard cavalry were extremely brave and defeated the Xuzhou grain transportation troops mercilessly.

The boiling flames of war burned in the silence of the night, the enemy troops were annihilated by tiger and leopard cavalry, and the food team was looted.

With the end of the battle, the tiger and leopard cavalry left in a hurry, leaving behind a messy battlefield and a plundered food team.

Cao Xiu's cold eyes swept across the battlefield, seeing the corpses of Xuzhou soldiers scattered in the pool of blood, he nodded with satisfaction.

Then, he led the tiger and leopard cavalry to leave suddenly, and disappeared into the darkness with the victory of the night.

Ten miles away from Cao Xiu's tiger and leopard cavalry plundering the Xuzhou grain transport team, Wu Dun in solid armor had a gloomy expression.

"General, Cao Xiu led the tiger and leopard rider, and they have already set off to return to the camp."

Wu Dun nodded lightly, and said: "The ambush is all set, whether the grain road can be unblocked depends on tonight's battle!"

Cao Xiu attacked and disturbed the grain road, causing the grain road to be blocked. He couldn't mess up the task assigned to him by Zang Ba.

If the grain road cannot be kept unblocked for a few more days, Zang Ba will start to suspect him.

Even if it is a dangerous move by soldiers, it has to be done.

That's why he used a hundred-vehicle grain convoy as bait in advance, and led three thousand elite soldiers to ambush him on the only way back to the camp.

You tiger and leopard cavalry are indeed the best soldiers in the world, but I am ambush, you have brought so much food, grass and luggage, and the combat effectiveness can be half of the usual?
After today's battle, the best result is: the tiger and leopard cavalry were hit hard, and the grain road was unblocked again!
Xuzhou soldiers hid on the high slope, set up ambushes, and waited for the arrival of tiger and leopard cavalry.

Soon after, there was the sound of rumbling horseshoes in the distance, and the team of tiger and leopard riders slowly approached.

Wu Dun gritted his teeth tightly. He knew that this operation was very dangerous, but he believed in the strength of the Xuzhou soldiers and firmly believed that they could defeat the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

Nearly.

Nearly.

Has entered the scheduled ambush.

"Shoot! Hit me!"

Wu Dun roared, and all the ambushing army was dispatched immediately.

Whoosh whoosh~
First, arrows were shot down like rain, and then earth and rocks continued to roll down from the high slope.

"There is an ambush!"

Cao Xiu snorted softly, but immediately calmed down.

clang clang ~
The arrow hit the heavy armor, but it could only tickle it.

"Who dares to ambush me, Cao Xiu? Go ahead!"

In an ambush, Cao Xiu was not only not afraid, but led the tiger and leopard cavalry to fight back.

"Come on!"

"Kill!"

The tiger and leopard cavalry showed amazing fighting power. Like a sharp spear, they forcibly defeated the ambush of Xuzhou soldiers.

puff puff~
Once they meet the Xuzhou soldiers in ambush, it will be a one-sided massacre.

The heavy armor was run over, and there was no life at all.

"Kill, kill me!"

Seeing that the battle was out of control, Wu Dun roared and commanded the Xuzhou soldiers to resist tenaciously, but the tiger and leopard cavalry's offensive was unstoppable.

Under the strong pressure of tiger and leopard cavalry, Xuzhou soldiers retreated steadily and suffered heavy losses.

"Hey~"

Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are really elite!
Wu Dun had no choice but to order a retreat, and hurried away with the remaining Xuzhou soldiers.

"Follow me!"

Just as Cao Xiu was about to pursue, he found that there were only a few hundred Tiger and Leopard Cavalry following him.

It turned out that Wu Dun's ambush still caused some damage to the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

Tigers and leopards riding light armored soldiers could be killed by arrows, while heavy armored soldiers were unlucky and were crushed to death by the rolling earth and rocks from high slopes.

After going back and forth, more than a hundred people were killed by tigers and leopards tonight, and hundreds of people were injured.

Although nearly a thousand Xuzhou soldiers who were in ambush were killed, this deal was too worthless.

"Forget it, go back to camp and rest!"

The tiger and leopard cavalry gave up after chasing for a while.

At this time, in the middle of the night, you can't see your fingers, and the enemy army is nowhere to be found. If you continue to chase, what if the enemy army ambushes again?
"Presumably the one who came to ambush today is Wu Dun. He knows our tiger and leopard cavalry front, so he should be afraid. He can send the envoy to say surrender tomorrow!"

His mission was to plunder the grain road, and then say to surrender to Wu Dun.

From this point of view, he has completed the tasks assigned to him by Cao Pi very well.

"General, the tiger and leopard cavalry have not come after them."

After running all the way, Wu Dun only felt a burning pain in the inner thigh.

The war horse under him also sticks out its horse tongue, and white air is continuously sprayed from its mouth and nose.

"hateful!"

The failure of this ambush made Wu Dun feel powerless, and the powerful strength of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry caught him off guard.

Obviously they have made full preparations, if they were replaced by other arms, the entire army would have been wiped out at this moment.

Pianna Tiger and Leopard Cavalry not only survived, but even fought back, causing heavy losses to his ambushing army.

How to defeat such an enemy?
If it were him when he was young, maybe he was still a little angry.

But now he's old, and
There was no war for many days, and he was enjoying the extravagance. He led the army to fight today, and suddenly felt uncomfortable.

The flesh came back to life, and I couldn't accept it.

"Go back to Yinling first, then make plans."

The next day.

In Yinling City.

Wu Dun hadn't rested for two hours when he was woken up by his attendants.

"General, there is an envoy from King Wei outside the city."

I didn't sleep well this time, and there was a burning pain in the inner thigh, Wu Dun's mood can be imagined.

However, when he heard that the envoy of King Wei was coming, his expression changed.

It stands to reason that he should have expelled the envoy of King Wei.

It is best to send his head to Zang Ba to show his loyalty.

However.
Yesterday's battle made him see many things clearly.

He said to his entourage: "Order to drive away the envoy of King Wei. If the two armies do not kill the envoy, if he dares to come again, he will be killed."

After finishing his righteous words, he waved to his cronies and whispered softly in his ear:
"If you bring it back to the mansion secretly, remember, you can't let outsiders see it."

As soon as Wu Dun said these words, the entourage immediately knew what he meant.

"Don't worry, general, your subordinates know what to do."

Wu Dun nodded.

Seeing the attendants leave, he sighed deeply again.

An envoy from the king of Wei came, and it seemed that the Wei army would not attack Yinling.

He said to the maid outside the door: "Change, I need to take a shower!"

He didn't dare to take off his armor last night. After marching all night, his back hurts and his legs are cramping. He should let Maggie's maid rub and press to dredge his muscles and bones.

If you are not physically fit, how can you fight?
In the study room in the backyard of the Yinling Mansion Yamen.

The envoy of the king of Wei had a look of surprise on his face.

He had been waiting for almost two quarters of an hour, but he still hadn't seen Wu Dun.

Could it be that these Taishan four bandits are going to play some insidious tricks again?
When the two armies fought, they did not kill each other.

Kill me secretly?

"Hahaha~"

There was a hearty laugh, and the envoy of King Wei first smelled the scent of chrysanthemums, and then saw Wu Dun in white silk and satin coming from outside the study, holding a glazed bracelet to play with.

The envoy of the king of Wei had sharp eyes, and there were also such glazed bracelets in Luoyang. I heard that a bracelet cost [-] yuan to start, and it was a luxury product produced by the Jingzhou Business League.

I don't want Wu Dun to have it.

Seeing the envoy staring straight at the glazed bracelet in his hand, Wu Dun chuckled and said, "If the envoy wants the glazed bracelet, I will give it to you."

The scent of chrysanthemums on his body was made from the chrysanthemum soap of the Shangmeng, and the silk and satin on his body was also transported by the Shangmeng. It was a first-class Sichuan brocade!
Since the beginning of the Liu Chan Merchant League, Zang Ba has been in charge of the business affairs of the Wei State of the Merchant League. As Zang Ba's target, Wu Dun is naturally rewarded with various items.

Just for colored glaze objects, more than ten pieces were rewarded.

The rest of the items are even more uncountable.

"The prefect was joking. I just took a second look and didn't dare to take advantage of others."

"It's just a glass bracelet, there are many more in my mansion!"

a lot of?

The envoy of the king of Wei couldn't help feeling tired.

Damn, I can't even ask for a glazed object, you traitor, how many of these do you have?
One piece starts at [-] yuan, dozens of pieces, isn't it worth millions of dollars, tens of millions of dollars?

No wonder that Zang Ba was able to rise up. If he were to face Zang Ba's sugar-coated shells, would he be able to resist?

"Prefect, let's talk about business."

The envoy of King Wei looked serious.

Wu Dun also put away the frivolous color on his face, and sat on the head of the study.

"I don't know what the messenger's business is?"

"Didn't the prefect ask knowingly? You were originally granted the position of prefect because of the great kindness of the former king. Why do you work for a tiger now? Now that the king's army has arrived, if the prefect is willing to return from the wrong way and make meritorious deeds, the king will not blame you for what happened before, and there is still Big reward!"

let bygones be bygones

Big reward?

Wu Dun pondered for a moment and asked, "I don't know why the envoy's words are so rewarding?"

"One million rewards, one hundred servants, the position of the prefect of the state, and the position of the prefect of the county. If he has made great achievements, he might not be able to be named a marquis, and he will be the governor of a state."

This heavy reward is indeed heavy enough.

If you have made great achievements, you can be named a Marquis?As the governor of a state?
Gollum~
Wu Dun swallowed secretly, and said: "Please also clarify clearly, the position of the prefect of He County, the position of He Zhou, what is the title of Marquis, and the governor of which State."

This bargaining is naturally to ask the price clearly.

"Since the prefect of Shangjun, it is a big county with abundant oil and water such as Runan County and Yingchuan County. The other prefectures are Xuzhou and Qingzhou. The feudal marquis is naturally Tinghou, and the governor is also Qingxu Erzhou."

After finishing speaking, the envoy of the King of Wei took a deep look at Wu Dun and said, "Your Majesty's reward is not insignificant. You have also seen the front of the tiger and leopard cavalry last night. With the strength of Zang Ba's rebel army, Is it possible to resist it? A good bird chooses a tree to live in, and now is the only chance for the eunuch."

Wu Dun's face was gloomy, and he asked again: "What counts as meritorious service?"

Seeing Wu Dun's intentional expression, Wei Wang's envoy also showed joy on his face.

"As long as the prefect can guard Yinling, cut off Zang Baliang's back road, and prevent Xuzhou's reinforcements from coming, it will be a meritorious service!"

If so
It is too difficult to make meritorious service!

"Messenger, my subordinates are only ten thousand people, how can they do these three things?"

If he rebelled, and Zang Ba came to attack him, it would be difficult to defend Yinling.

Do you want to cut off the food road and prevent Xuzhou from helping?
Am I that good?
"Or, did the emissary come to joke on purpose? Wait for my troops to run out? I, Wu Dun, am not a fool!"

The envoy smiled lightly and said: "It is not the eunuch alone who can cut off the food road and stop the reinforcements. Our army of Wei State is naturally also involved in it, like tiger and leopard cavalry. They are also in this army. The eunuch does not need to worry too much." .”

If there are other people, it's okay to say.

Seeing that Wu Dun was deep in thought, the envoy of the king of Wei hurriedly said: "The eunuch should make a decision as soon as possible. Although my entry into the city is a secret, there may not be news from Zang Ba's side."

How many Zang Ba's eyes around Wu Dun do you really think you can deceive the world?

It's cheating.

How can I let you succeed?
"Three days later, Zang Ba will definitely get the news, and the time left for the prefect is running out."

He said three days, that is three days.

Wu Dun shrank his pupils, and said: "If I am anyway, my family and relatives are all in Xuzhou, can you keep it?"

"The eunuch is here, are you afraid that you don't have any relatives?"

That is impossible to keep!
Wu Dun was unhappy.

"Zang Ba and I have been friends for decades, and they are my close friends and relatives of Wu Dun!"

Hearing Wu Dun's words, Wei Wang's envoy looked stern.

"What does the prefect mean to be obsessed with obsession? Follow Zang Ba all the way to darkness?"

Wu Dun shook his head and said: "I just want to tell the messenger, tell the king, if I, Wu Dun, oppose Zang Ba, not only will the family members who stay in Xuzhou lose their lives, but I will also bear the eternal infamy of betraying my brothers."

"What does the prefect mean?"

The envoy of the king of Wei showed a strange look on his face.

"The heavy reward just now is not enough, we have to add money!"

million dollars?
Send beggars!

"What do you want to do, Your Excellency?" Wei Wang's envoy was already impatient.

"I, Wu Dun, would like to be married to the king, and I would like to ask the envoy to pass it on for me."

The envoy of King Wei laughed angrily.

"Prefect, you"

Greed is not enough to swallow an elephant!

Originally, there was still a way to survive, but after a wave of this, it was meritorious service. Would King Wei spare your life?

"If you don't want to, I will live and die with the slaves!"

The so-called slaves are Zang Ba's nickname.

It is a custom in the land of Qingxu to choose a cheap nickname, which means that it is easy to support.

"Since that's the case, I'll immediately send someone to hurry up and pass it on."

"it is good!"

Wu Dun nodded.

"As soon as the news arrives, I will act anyway and become a loyal minister of Wei!"

Great Wei Zhongchen?

You are almost a treacherous official of Wei!

And on the other side.

mid-February.

Jingzhou.

Outside Xiyang City.

The sun is shining brightly and the spring breeze is blowing.

A group of tens of thousands of soldiers came windingly. The leading general had a white horse on his crotch, wearing a white armor and a white cloak on his back.

If it wasn't Changshan Zhao Zilong, then who?

Ps:

The last day is hot, if you have a monthly pass, vote once, if you don't vote again, it will expire!
另外
This month is indeed a bit decadent. Next month, I plan to offer monthly ticket rewards and upgrades. I encourage myself. If you have suggestions, you can comment. I will learn from others and learn from them.
