Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 206
Back at the temporary residence, Xun Yu told Liu Yu all the experiences of the day.

It turned out that Xun Yu met Chen Dao by chance outside the tavern in the afternoon, so he went up to chat and expressed his intention to make friends.

Chen didn't expect to be favored by Lord Shougong Ling, so he didn't dare to neglect, and invited him into his friend's tavern for a chat, but Chen Dao had something on his mind, so his face always showed distracted emotions.

Xun Yu was good at observing words and expressions, and a few heartfelt words made Chen Dao express his thoughts.

Chen Dao said that the owner of this tavern was Qi Hua, and that he had a distant cousin who was also selling wine in the west of the city. A month ago, the old father-in-law of Shen Sheng, the county magistrate, took a fancy to that piece of land and wanted to build another courtyard.

Cousin Qi Hua was unwilling to move out immediately at first, but he never thought that Mr. Shen would order his servants to destroy the tavern on the spot without further ado. He was arrested by officials and sent to prison.

The matter was supposed to be over, but the next day, cousin Qi Hua's family went to the county government to plead for release, only to find that cousin Qi Hua had already been beaten to death in the prison.

Cousin Qi Hua's family rioted in the county government in grief and indignation, and they were all thrown into jail by the county magistrate Shen Sheng for the crime of rioting the people.

Chen Daoben has a jealous personality, and he was very angry when he learned about the incident, but he also knew that the county magistrate Shen Sheng was covering the sky with one hand, and forcing it would only make things more difficult to deal with.

Finally, with Chen Dao's secret efforts, cousin Qi Hua's family was rescued and sent outside the city, but after a few days, a ranger came from nowhere and stabbed Mrs. Shen to death in the street.

Shen Sheng, the magistrate of the county, was furious when he got the news. He sent Chen Dao to lead people to arrest him quickly. Chen Dao felt that Mr. Shen's death deserved more than guilt, so he deliberately found a reason to delay the arrest.

In a fit of rage, Shen Sheng dismissed Chen Dao to investigate, and personally led people to arrest the ranger.

Chen Dao was disheartened, and the next day he planned to leave Liang County and go back to his hometown. On the way, he happened to meet Qi Hua's cousin's family. After asking, he found out about the knight-errant who killed Mr. Shen. It turned out that he ran specifically to avenge this family.

After learning about this situation, Chen Dao was also full of enthusiasm, thinking that a ranger could do such a righteous act, how could he just leave, so he turned back to the city at that time.

After entering the city, Chen Dao made an appointment with some friends, and decided to discuss how to rescue the ranger in the prison in Qi Hua's tavern this afternoon.

Chen arrived at the tavern the earliest time, so he met Xun Yu by chance.

After hearing the whole story, Xun Yu also had the intention of helping, so he asked to join the rescue team of You Xia'er.

Later, he also heard that Chen Dao had a very good reputation as a thief in Liang County, and he had good friends in both the prison camp and the city guards. So he helped a few people come up with the idea of ​​setting fire to the house first, and then going to the prison to rob the prison. strategy.

Hearing this plan, Chen felt that it was exquisite and relieved his hatred, so he expressed his admiration and gratitude on the spot, and at this time Xun Yu took the opportunity to mention the matter of recruitment.

Liu Yu's name had spread to Liang County a long time ago. How could Chen Dao have thought that a dismissed official would be favored by the King of Zhongshan?

……

So far Liu Yu basically understood the situation. It turned out that Xun Yu wanted to use the strategy of diverting the tiger away from the mountain to lead all the guards to the scene to fight the fire.

However, there were not many guards in Liang County, and the house that was on fire belonged to Mr. Shen in name, but in fact it belonged to the county magistrate Shen Sheng, so the county magistrate Shen Sheng would definitely mobilize all the government officials to fight the fire.

In this way, neither the guards of the prison nor the city gate would be negligent in guarding against it. With Chen Dao's good popularity in the county government and his force value as high as 93, he would be able to easily rescue the ranger from outside the city.

It's just that after listening to Xun Yu's speech, Liu Yu always felt that this series of events seemed familiar, but for a while, he couldn't remember where he saw it.

……

The fire burned for more than two hours before it was extinguished, and the county town gradually became quiet until the middle of the night.

In the morning of the second day, Liu Yu and the others were ready to leave the city. When they arrived at the city gate, they saw that the defense here had become extremely strict. Not only were notices to arrest Chen Dao and You Xia'er posted everywhere, but even the county magistrate Shen Sheng also came. Go to the city gate and sit in town in person.

Looking at Chen Dao, he must have successfully rescued You Xia'er, otherwise County Magistrate Liang wouldn't have made such a big move.

"Aren't you locals? Are you in a hurry to leave the city so early?" A small school was comparing the portraits with Liu Yu and the other three.

At this time, Shen Sheng, the county magistrate at the side, saw Xun Yu, and hurriedly pushed the little school away, and said in a moment: "It turns out that it is Lord Shougong Ling, are you leaving Liang County?" Shen Sheng After speaking, he quietly looked at Liu Yu with suspicious eyes.

It can only be blamed for Liu Yu's temperament being too conspicuous, and he will attract attention at that stop.

Xun Yu took a step forward to stand in front of him, and said with a smile, "There are no more people here to be assessed, so naturally I will leave with my companions!"

No more doubts could be found on the three of them, so Shen Sheng could only let them go and send them outside the city gate pretending to be polite.

At this moment, a fast horse came to report, "Report to the county magistrate, three miles ahead, we found the whereabouts of the former thief Cao Jun, Chen Dao, and the ranger!"

Shen Sheng was overjoyed when he heard the words, and asked loudly: "Have you ever arrested them?"

The soldiers who came to report hurriedly replied: "There are only more than 50 people in the search team out of the city, and they haven't been able to subdue the prisoner for a while!"

At this time, Shen Sheng also remembered that Chen Dao was very skilled, and immediately mobilized more than 200 officials to help arrest him.

Seeing Shen Sheng leading the troops away, Xun Yu felt very anxious, "I originally made an appointment with that Chen Dao to meet three miles away, what should I do now!"

But Liu Yu said with a smile: "Wen Ruo worried too much, there are only two hundred soldiers in the area. When I go there in person, I will definitely help Chen Dao escape!" After finishing speaking, the three of them followed Shen Sheng.

Three miles away, Chen Daozheng was protecting the ranger while waiting for an opportunity to break through.

It stands to reason that fifty local pawns could not block Chen Dao's way at all, but the ranger was injured all over his body in the prison, and he couldn't walk fast without someone to support him.

And Chen Dao was trapped here in order to protect him.

But even so, Chen Dao had killed more than ten people, and he believed that he would be able to break out of the encirclement in a short time.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and it didn't take long to hear noisy footsteps not far away, and Chen Dao turned his head to look at it, and his heart immediately became cold.

The enemy's reinforcements came, and there were no fewer than 200 people.

When a person is exhausted, even a strong individual cannot face the siege of a hundred people and retreat completely, not to mention that Chen Dao still has an oil bottle by his side.

"Master Chen, ahem... You'd better let me go and run away by yourself, it's too late... it's too late!" You Xia'er struggled to break free from Chen Dao's protection, and picked up a knife to go to the back of the hall for Chen Dao.

But how could Chen Dao have the heart to let him go, seeing that the enemy's reinforcements were approaching, Chen Dao rushed into the encirclement without hesitation.
