Unparalleled Huaxiong of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 313

Here, Hua Xiong and others broke camp and set off in the direction of Jinyang. In the northern part of Bingzhou, Zhao Yun and his party took Gongsun Xu's body and set foot on the road back to Youzhou.

Along the way, Zhao Yun ordered all the soldiers to hurry up, and Bingzhou was about to experience great changes. Zhao Yun had already ruled out the scouts to report to Gongsun Zan, but it was better for Zhao Yun to tell Gongsun Zan personally the more detailed information.

While walking, Zhao Yun suddenly found that the soldiers of Baima Yicong beside him were discussing something in a low voice. Zhao Yun didn't pay attention to it for a while, but seeing the discussion of these Baima Yicong became louder and louder, and it seemed that it hadn't stopped. Meaning, Zhao Yun couldn't help asking these people:

"What are you mumbling about?"

As soon as Zhao Yun spoke, those Baima Yicong looked at each other, and then they all looked at the oldest Baima Yicong in the team. This man was called Lao Ba, and no one knew his name, even himself. have no idea.

The name "Old Eight" was given to him by the school captain who recruited soldiers when he was enlisted in Youzhou. There were seven other people in front of him who didn't know their names. He was the eighth, so the school captain gave it to him. He took the name of "Old Eight".

At that moment, Lao Ba stepped forward a little bit from the team and got closer to Zhao Yun, then he whispered to Zhao Yun: "General Zilong, we are discussing, if you don't come to the front, please take a step back, we will go to investigate first Take a look at the tone of the lord's side."

Zhao Yun frowned and asked, "What's the tone?"

Lao Ba turned his head and pointed to the coffin of Gongsun Xu carried by the rear army, and said in a low voice, "Young General."

"unnecessary."

Zhao Yun said bluntly: "I have asked the scouts to tell the lord about the Major General."

"what?"

The old man and the white horses behind him were surprised for a while, and the old man asked Zhao Yun: "General Zilong, how did you explain the death of the major general to the lord?"

Zhao Yun turned his head and looked in the direction of Youzhou, as if he was talking about the most common thing to see:

"Of course it is true."

As soon as Zhao Yun's words came out, there was a lot of discussion among Baima Yicong. Old Ba's eyes seemed to be a little moist, and his voice was mixed with a tremor, and he asked Zhao Yun:
"General Zilong, when you return to Youzhou this time, do you already have the will to die?"

Zhao Yun urged the Magnolia White Dragon colt under him to move forward. This good colt from Dawan in the Western Region seemed to have sensed an unknown risk at this time, and it looked listless and lifeless.

Zhao Yun didn't answer Old Ba's words directly. At this time, the scout of the former army came galloping up and said to Zhao Yun, "General Zilong, Changshan County is just ahead. Would you like to go back to your hometown to have a look?"

Zhao Yun said to the soldier: "How can you misuse the public for personal reasons during the march? I don't care how other generals handle this kind of thing, and I won't bring it up again after I come here!"

"promise."

The scout responded to Zhao Yun, and then rode back. After the scout left, Zhao Yun seemed to be talking to Lao Ba, and also seemed to be talking to himself:

"When the lord led Baima Yicong to hunt down the Xianbei people outside the Great Wall, he once said: We men, if we do something, we should do it."

At this time, Lao Ba behind saw that Zhao Yun hadn't turned his head. He turned his head to look behind him, and made eye contact with several soldiers of Baima Yicong.The soldiers of Baima Yicong nodded slightly to Lao Ba.

There was nothing to say all the way, two days later, Zhao Yun and his party had just stepped out of Zhongshan Kingdom and stepped into the border of Dai County, when they saw smoke and dust in the sky in the distance, and a cavalry of about a thousand men was rushing towards here.

"My lord has sent someone over."

Beside Zhao Yun, Lao Ba looked at the smoke and dust rising in front of him and said to Zhao Yun as if pointing.

"Ah."

Zhao Yun hummed lightly, and then ordered Bai Ma Yicong behind him: "Follow me forward."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Yun urged his horse to meet the cavalry team, and the nearly hundred white horses behind him followed him.

The two armies met very quickly, and Zhao Yun could clearly see that there were a thousand white horse followers coming towards him, and the leader of the army was Tian Kai, another general under Gongsun Zan.

This Tian Kai can be said to be Gongsun Zan's confidant, and his official position is above that of Zhao Yun. When Tian Kai and Zhao Yun met, Zhao Yun was about to greet Tian Kai, but Tian Kai asked Zhao Yun first:

"Zilong, what did you do in Bingzhou?!"

Zhao Yun showed some embarrassment on his face, and he asked Tian Kai: "General Tian, ​​what did my lord tell you?"

Tian Kai said anxiously:

"Your letter to the lord did not show the lord, but the lord was furious after reading your letter, drew his sword on the spot and cut off the scout you sent, and then ordered me to wait in Daijun with Baima Yicong. You said that once he saw you, he would escort you to him, if you don't come today, the lord will probably send troops to Bingzhou to look for you tomorrow!"

After Zhao Yun gave a wry smile, he said to Tian Kai: "General Tian, ​​I'm afraid this time, it's more unfortunate than good."

Tian Kai asked Zhao Yun: "Zilong, don't say such discouraging words. What have you done? You are skilled in martial arts. If it weren't for the irreparable big mistake, the lord would not blame you too much, by the way. , where is the major general? But in the infantry behind?"

Zhao Yun sighed, and said to Tian Kai, "Young General is indeed in the infantry."

Tian Kai nodded and said: "Okay, then we will wait for the Major General to come and go to see the lord together. If the Major General speaks for you, you will have no worries."

"Forehead"

Zhao Yun thought for a while, but still didn't say anything. Firstly, Zhao Yun was not a talkative person, and secondly, it was useless to tell Tian Kai the facts now.

At present, the cavalry of the two sides lined up on both sides, approaching in front of the infantry behind, and as the infantry got closer, Tian Kai's eyes became more and more suspicious, and he asked Zhao Yun:

"Zilong, don't look at the men on horseback in the infantry that don't look like major generals. Could it be that the major generals are injured?"

Zhao Yun was speechless, but Tian Kai saw Zhao Yun's silence as if he suddenly realized something, he trembled all over, stopped talking nonsense, and quietly waited for the large infantry to come over.

Finally, the nearly [-] infantry troops in Youzhou stopped in front of Tian Kai. The densely packed tens of thousands of people were all showing everyone that Bingzhou’s losses in this expedition were not big, but Tian Kai didn’t care about this. Among the tens of thousands of people, Gongsun Xu was not seen.

In Tian Kai's eyes, the lives of tens of thousands of people are not as good as the life of Gongsun Xu alone.

Zhao Yun waved his hands to the several school lieutenants in the infantry formation, and then ran out a group of soldiers. These soldiers came to Tian Kai carrying a coffin that was apparently improvised from trees.

As soon as Tian Kai saw the coffin, his whole body trembled, and his face lost any color.
