Han Shao and Zhao Yu waited by the side of the road inside the gate. The two met and greeted each other. After a brief acquaintance, the three led their horses to the county government office.
"Bo Yue has an extraordinary appearance. He really is a young hero. The son-in-law will definitely love him when he sees him later." Seeing Jiang Wei's majestic appearance, Han Shao thought to himself that this is the Tianshui Kirin. Heaven and earth.
Jiang Wei clasped his fists when he heard this, and then replied modestly: "General Han is too absurd, Jiang is actually very ordinary, it is my honor to meet the son-in-law in Wangyuan..."
"The son-in-law is a person who loves talents. I have a good-looking talent, and I will definitely introduce you when we meet later. If the son-in-law is really interested, he may take you back to Chang'an or Luoyang..." Han Shao replied with a smile.
"Chang'an, Luoyang? The last general's mother is still in Jicheng..." Jiang Weixin said that he had to be filial.
"What's so difficult about it? It's enough to bring the blessings along with you. The son-in-law is very generous." Han Shao said in a hype, Zhao Yu next to him didn't say a word, and secretly scolded him for deceiving the child who had just graduated from office.
"Thank you, General Han..." Jiang Wei cupped his fists to express his gratitude. He had a good impression of Han Shao, so he asked curiously: "This thief Zhang Fei is more cunning than the legends say, and he is especially good at using the mobility of cavalry. May I ask how the son-in-law repelled him?" his?"
Han Shao didn't change his face, and explained with a smile: "Zhang Fei's cavalry is indeed fierce, but after all, the number is too limited. The son-in-law brought [-] cavalry from Chang'an, and he encountered him in the east of Wangyuan City yesterday. A small group of cavalry lured them, but the son-in-law chose not to be moved, and the [-] troops maintained their formation and advanced, but the other party saw that the temptation failed, so they had to flee along the river beach and on both sides of the mountain."
Jiang Wei nodded, "Zhang Fei just likes to lure with a small group of cavalry. Once he divides his troops to pursue them, he will easily encounter ambushes, and then the soldiers and horses he divides will be eaten by him. Zhang Fei must be at the end of his rope if he handles it as steadily as the son-in-law. , are they withdrawing now?"
"This morning, someone from Shangbi reported Zhang Fei's movements and confirmed that the other party had withdrawn from Tianshui. Presumably, there was insufficient food and grass." Han Shao nodded and replied.
"It seems that the strong walls and clear fields have worked. Zhang Fei has been entrenched in Tianshui for a long time. He has no place to supply food and grass for a long time. If he doesn't return to Wudu, he can only kill horses to satisfy his hunger. Now that he meets the army of reinforcements, how can he not retreat?" Jiang Jiang Wei looked at Zhao Yu while speaking, as if to say that you also have a part in strengthening the wall and clearing the wild.
Zhao Yu smiled awkwardly and didn't dare to answer, thinking that Zhang Fei had just robbed Xia Houmao's supply ship, and the food reserves were much more abundant than Wangyuan City.
"Let's go, don't make the son-in-law wait too long." Seeing that Zhao Yu hesitated to speak, Han Shao hurriedly urged everyone to speed up, but he couldn't let Zhao Yu mess things up.
"Wei." Jiang Wei and Zhao Yu replied in unison.
Several people got off their horses in front of the county government office, and then strode towards the main hall. Their respective guards stopped outside the county government office.
If you climb a high branch, you can save 20 years of struggle. Few people can resist the temptation, and the young Jiang Wei is not immune. He followed into the main hall of the county government with a face full of excitement, but found that the seat of the county magistrate was empty.
Jiang Wei turned his head to look at Han Shao next to him, as if asking where is the son-in-law?
Han Shao's face suddenly changed, and he shouted loudly: "Take down the traitor Jiang Wei."
As soon as the words fell, dozens of Han Shao's personal soldiers rushed out from inside and outside the lobby, and surrounded the bewildered Jiang Wei.
It was too late for Jiang Wei to resist, so he swung his sword vigorously to resist, shouting loudly: "What do you mean? What is my crime?"
"You are innocent...but..." Zhao Yu, who was on the periphery, couldn't bear it.
After Jiang Wei heard Zhao Yu's words, he suddenly thought of something, and asked in a voiceless voice, "Are you going to take me back from Zhang Fei?"
"Get it for me."
Following Han Shao's urging again, a group of personal soldiers attacked together. Although Jiang Wei was young and powerful, he was eventually outnumbered and captured.
"What's 'Shen Sheng died inside, and Chong'er was safe outside'. The sky is going to kill me, Jiang Wei, it's useless to hide anywhere..." Jiang Wei smiled wryly with his hands bound, his immature face full of unwillingness.
Han Shao patted him on the shoulder lightly: "Men are mortal, either heavier than Mount Tai, or lighter than a feather..."
"Traitor, why don't you die? Poor me, I still have an old mother to take care of..." Jiang Wei looked at Han Shao viciously, but Han Shao made up his mind not to be moved.
With a shame on his face, Zhao Yu comforted him, "Don't worry, Bo Yuedan, I will try to take care of your mother..."
"Damn, you're not a good person either." Jiang Wei was furious, and spat a glob of saliva onto Zhao Yu's embarrassed face.
Zhao Yu wiped the saliva off his face with his sleeve, and Jiang Wei didn't know the feeling of pain in his heart that he couldn't help himself.
If he didn't obey Han Shao's arrangement, Zhao Yu's ending would be miserable. After all, his status and status were very different from Xiahoumao's.
"Put it into the prison cart for me. This general will order all the soldiers and horses, and I will lead the soldiers to replace them later." Han Shao ordered in a deep voice.
The soldiers nodded knowingly: "Wei."
Jiang Wei was escorted out of the county government hall, and Zhao Yu asked Han Shao in puzzlement, "Why did General Han make such a big detour? Why didn't he capture him directly at the gate just now?"
"I just inquired about Jiang Wei. He is full of blood and good at martial arts. If he fights in the city, there is no guarantee that he will be safe. Besides, Jiang Wei has a bad name in Tianshui. If he is not charged with a crime, it will be difficult for the prefect Ma. "Han Shao frowned and explained.
"What crime does General Han want to impose on Jiang Weiguan?" Zhao Yu asked.
"Jiang Wei was in the county government. He rudely assaulted the superior and was escorted back to Chang'an for trial." Han Shao replied.
"It turned out to be like this..." Zhao Yu suddenly realized, and escorted him back to Chang'an for trial, even Ma Zun couldn't be held accountable, he finally understood Han Shao's "doing nothing".
Han Shao reminded solemnly: "General Zhao is on the same boat as me now, some things are better left in the stomach. I didn't do anything in Wangyuan City just now, because I was concerned about your reputation."
"Thank you, General Han..." Zhao Yu cupped his fists.
In the early morning of the next day, Han Shao rode out of Wangyuan with [-] paces, and escorted Jiang Wei to the east to find Zhang Fei for a prisoner.
After Han Shao was arrested and met, he went to Shangyu overnight to contact Zhang Fei, and said that he would bring Jiang Wei over for an exchange the next day.
Zhang Fei was a little surprised when he heard the news. He didn't expect Han Shao to be so efficient and came to Xia Houmao's side during his rest at night.
"Xiahou's son-in-law, your general is very capable. He captured Jiang Wei in less than half a day. He doesn't think he wants to use tricks to make money from me, old Zhang, right? If he plays tricks, you will suffer..." Zhang Fei Said meaningfully.
Xia Houmao was tied to a tree. He was overjoyed to hear the news about Han Shao, and quickly explained with a smile: "Master Han has always been famous for his honesty, so he probably wouldn't deceive General Zhang. I don't know why..."
"I'm not afraid of being deceived, I hope the concubine's general will treat you sincerely..." Zhang Fei turned around with a smile, and said to Zhang Da: "Give the concubine a bowl of kelp soup to warm his body, and he will sleep back to back with the big tree all night , don’t be so cold that Han Shao can’t recognize him.”
"Wei." Zhang Da clasped his fists in response, and then called for a bowl of kelp soup to be fed to Xia Houmao.
Seeing Xia Houmao gobbling it up, Zhang Fei asked with a smile, "Aren't you Wei Guo's son-in-law? Have you ever had kelp soup?"
"Uh..." Xia Houmao hiccupped, and explained with a smile: "I drank it, I drank it, but it was only in Chang'an, but the price of kelp is expensive and hard to come by. It's not as luxurious as you..."
"It's so pitiful... We can eat as much as we want..." Zhang Fei suddenly felt superior.
Chapter 732 Honest and Trustworthy Zhang Yide
Xia Houmao was speechless, thinking that Sun Quan would use kelp as war compensation, right?Otherwise, how could these rough guys eat this thing?
"General Zhang is really good at joking. How can this kelp be innumerable? But you are so proud to use it as military rations. I admire you very much." Xia Houmao responded with a smile.
Zhang Fei turned his head and frowned: "You still don't believe me? Give the son-in-law another two bowls. We have plenty of kelp. You go back and send a message to Cao Pi, surrender the city to the King of Hanzhong early, and I promise you will eat kelp every day."
"Uh..." Xia Houmao said in his heart that being an emperor is not just about eating, he didn't dare and had no time to refute Zhang Fei, because Zhang Da made two more bowls of soup and came over.
Xia Houmao remained standing and tied to a tree. She was forced to drink several bowls of kelp soup. When the cool breeze passed through her crotch at night, her pants, shoes and socks were soaked many times.
The next day, the sun rose into the mid-heaven, and the two sides lined up and exchanged five miles southeast of Shanggui.
Zhang Fei deliberately chose the exchange location outside the valley that enters Qishan Road. If there is any change, he will retreat into the valley and return to Wudu. Han Shao cheated.
Seeing the other party coming pushing the prison cart, Zhang Fei smiled and joked to Xia Houmao: "Xiahou Consort, your general is not bad, you really brought him here, you must reward him well when you go back, otherwise you will come back with me." Wudu is a guest."
"General Zhang really wants to let me go?" Xia Houmao still didn't believe it.
Zhang Fei frowned and replied: "My husband said one thing, I explained my intention to the people and officials of Liangzhou, I came to Tianshui to avenge General Ma, his enemy Yang Fu was in Wudu before, so Jiang Xu's family is already dead Guang, he himself died of illness in Ji County, so I can only bring back Jiang Wei, the son of the accomplice, why not?"
"Father's enmity, we will die together. Brother's enmity. Enmity between different countries and friends. Don't turn against the army. General Zhang is a true hero..." Xia Houmao took a breath, thinking what did Ma Chao do to Zhang Fei? What?This black guy actually worked so hard to avenge him, fortunately, my father didn't have a deep grudge against them.
While the two were chatting, Han Shao had someone push the prison cart to the front of the two armies, and shouted: "General Zhang, can we change prisoners now?"
Zhang Fei waved his hand and signaled: "Push the prison cart over first, make sure he is really Jiang Wei, and then I will put Xiahou's son-in-law back."
"This...isn't appropriate?" Han Shao looked embarrassed.
"What's inappropriate? If you randomly arrest someone to make up the number, wouldn't I suffer a lot? If not..."
Seeing Zhang Fei's face collapsed, Xia Houmao hurriedly shouted: "Master Han, listen to General Zhang's orders."
"According to what Zhang Fei said." Han Shao was in a disadvantaged group during the negotiation, and in the end he could only let the guards push the prison cart over first.
Jiang Wei in the prison car was in a panic. His eyes were dull and his face was dull. He didn't know why Zhang Fei called him by name. Could it be because his surname was also Jiang?But Tianshui has a lot of people with the surname Jiang, probably because he has a bad name.
Scholars flocked to fight for fame, but Jiang Wei lamented that he was misled by his reputation. How ironic it is when he thinks of it?
"Hey, how do you prove that you are Jiang Wei?" Zhang Da slapped the fence of the prison car.
Jiang Wei closed his eyes and did not answer, knowing that he was going to die, who would rush to prove his identity?He slandered Zhang Da for not being able to ask questions, but he felt that someone was watching him.
After driving for dozens of miles in a prison car, Jiang Wei already knew that Han Shao had exchanged himself for Xia Houmao. Jiang Wei thought that his talent and learning were outstanding in Tianshui, but in the eyes of those powerful and powerful, he was just a chess piece that could be thrown away at any time.
Opening his eyes, Jiang Wei saw that outside the prison car, someone was looking around the prison car non-stop. The special appearance of the leopard head and ring eyes, who else could it be if it wasn't Zhang Fei?
"Hei Si, what are you looking at? Envious of the young master's face?" Jiang Wei deliberately teased.
Zhang Fei frowned and didn't answer. He looked at it for a while before nodding seriously: "That's right, it should be Jiang Wei. I've seen him in the portrait, and he doesn't differ much from the painting."
Jiang Wei was very surprised after hearing this, thinking that this black servant actually has a portrait of himself?How long has he been paying attention to himself?
"General, do you want to stop asking?" Zhang Da reminded.
Zhang Fei shook his head and said, "You take Jiang Wei away first, and I will hand it over to Prince Xia immediately."
"Really let it go?" Zhang Da's face was full of disappointment. He thought that Xia Houmao's identity could be exchanged for many good things, so it would be a pity to just let it go.
"I will do what I say. After Xiahou's son-in-law returns, remember not to mess with me easily. You won't be so lucky next time." Zhang Fei said meaningfully.
After hearing Zhang Da's words, Xia Houmao's trembling heart fell to the bottom, but Zhang Fei's "integrity" surprised him, so he kept shaking his head and echoed: "Don't worry, General Zhang, definitely, definitely..."
Zhang Fei grabbed Xiahoumao's back with one hand, and then pushed forward hard. Xiahoumao almost staggered and fell down. He knew that Zhang Fei had really let him go, so he ran towards Han Shao frantically, fearing that someone would come from behind. A cold arrow shot at his vest.
"Run, son-in-law, be careful next time." After Zhang Fei laughed twice, he told the broken cavalry to be on alert, and they were about to retreat towards Qishan Road.
Xia Houmao was welcomed back to the formation by several guards, Han Shao clasped his fists and finished greeting him, and then asked: "My son-in-law, the general has [-] paces at the end, do you want to catch up and fight?"
"Don't cause trouble for me, isn't that shameful enough? Fortunately, Zhang Yide is honest, otherwise I won't be able to come back." Xia Houmao dared not stroke Zhang Fei's beard for the rest of his life after the catastrophe.
"It's also thanks to Jiang Wei." Han Shao shook his head slightly.
Xia Houmao asked curiously: "Wangyuan arrived in Jicheng in half a day, but Master Han captured Jiang Wei last night and got in touch with Zhang Fei. How did you do it?"
Han Shao replied with a smile: "It's all thanks to the son-in-law Hongfu Qitian. After you were taken away by Zhang Fei yesterday morning..."
Just when Xia Houmao was questioning the details, Zhang Fei's cavalry was running at full speed in the valley. They sent troops to Qishan in November last year, and it has been nearly four months now.
All the soldiers were eager to return home, and the horses were flying like flying horses. However, Jiang Wei's prison car was imprisoned, which seriously affected the speed of withdrawal.
Zhang Fei then tied Jiang Wei to his horse, and two cavalry led Jiang Wei forward, one on the left and the other on the right. The shape was slightly different from that of Xia Houmao yesterday, because the three of them did not carry the same stick.
After walking on the mountain road for two days, Jiang Wei secretly loosened the shackles on his legs. He gathered his strength and took advantage of the unprepared guards on both sides. With the help of the impact of the galloping horses, he slammed into the cavalry on the right, and the two of them turned over and fell down with a plop. .
The guard was thrown by Jiang Wei as a pad, and his whole body hurt. Jiang Wei stood up like a carp, trying to escape through the bushes next to the valley, but Zhang Fei's soldiers were all around him. How easy is it for him to escape?
With a snap, Jiang Wei ran less than a foot away, and the long whip wrapped around his ankle like a snake.
Chapter 733 Qilin is so timid?
"Want to run? Come back to me." Zhang Fei pulled the whip back, and Jiang Wei was dragged back by the rough force, and he lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground.
The soldiers next to him rushed forward and pinned Jiang Wei to the ground so that he could not move.
Jiang Wei bumped his head against the ground, thinking that it would be better to die in the hands of this black servant than to be tortured by Ma Chao.
"You kill me, but if Jiang Wei frowns, I'm not a good man."
Zhang Fei squatted down and looked at Jiang Wei with a smile: "I didn't expect it to be a fierce horse, but it suits my appetite very much. Help him onto Wu Xiao's back, and I will take care of it myself."
"Ah... General, you..." Zhang Da didn't think of a reason to persuade him, so he changed the subject and said, "Wu Zou carries too much burden on the two of you, why don't you stay as before? I will guard you in the end."
Zhang Fei didn't take it seriously after hearing this: "It's about changing horses every half a day. I happened to be exchanging feelings with Boyue. I heard that you like Zheng Kangcheng's (Zheng Xuan)'s annotated scriptures? Why don't you tell me about it on the way? Don't think that I, Lao Zhang, is a rough man. There is a lot of respect for readers."
Jiang Wei looked bewildered, Zhang Fei wants to exchange feelings with me?My body shuddered involuntarily. No matter how much you respect scholars, you can't change the fact that you sent me to Ma Chao for torture.
Oh my god.
Before Jiang Wei could sigh, he was helped onto Wuzhao, and a strong sense of oppression came from behind him. Zhang Fei immediately got on his horse and sat behind him, embracing the young Jiang Wei with both hands, and using both hands to steer the horse to run on Qishan Road.
The picture of a man and a woman riding a horse together is beautiful, but the picture of two adult men riding a horse together looks very strange. Even Jiang Wei, who has lost all hope, feels extremely uncomfortable at this time.
A handsome and fair boy in his early twenties was 'held in his arms' by a black-faced strong man who was nearly sixty years old. Even though Jiang Wei was brave and skilled in martial arts, he was also locked in by Zhang Fei's exaggerated strength. There is a feeling of wanting to cry without tears.
After finally resting at night, Jiang Weicai 'temporarily' got rid of Zhang Fei's control, and felt comfortable being tied to the horse post.
The looted food and kelp have been exhausted, and there is only a small amount of compressed food left for the entire army to satisfy their hunger, but it is enough to support them back to Wudu, so it is very simple to replenish on Qishan Road. A small piece of compressed military food plus drinking water can satisfy their hunger .
Zhang Fei walked up to Jiang Wei with a torch, then took out compressed dry food from his pocket, broke off a small piece and handed it over, "Tianshui Qilin, come and eat some dry food to satisfy your hunger."
Jiang Wei saw that the dry rations were strange in shape and different from the ones he had seen before, yet the soldiers ate them with gusto. He worried that Zhang Fei and them were plotting against him, so he shook his head and said, "I'm not hungry yet..."
"Aren't you hungry? Then I'll save it." Zhang Fei didn't persuade him much, and sent people to take turns to watch at night, and then lay down on the spot not far away, just sleeping in the open in the valley.
Now that Jiang Wei is in his hands, how to persuade him to surrender is a problem. Zhang Fei found that this person is more difficult to deal with than Yan Yan based on his experience of getting along with him for a day, so Zhang Fei does not intend to open his heart prematurely.
If he relaxed his vigilance against Jiang Wei halfway, Zhang Fei was very worried that Jiang Wei would seize the horse and run away.
With his hands tied, Jiang Wei observed on the horse for most of the day. He found that Zhang Fei's cavalry was well-trained, and indeed they were not comparable to those weak soldiers in Tianshui County. Ordinary soldiers have the habit of fighting together, so Jiang Wei couldn't figure out the reason why this cavalry was so powerful.
In the early days, Zhang Fei often suffered defeats with Liu Bei. After arriving in Jingzhou, he basically did not experience a big defeat. Although he did not integrate into the ordinary soldiers, he was able to ensure that the grassroots soldiers won military merits. His violent temper was used to beat the spinning top. The soldiers now I am used to shouting and scolding, and in the past few years, I can occasionally use tricks, and the battle damage in the expedition has repeatedly hit new lows, so the soldiers are very relieved to fight with Zhang Fei.
After midnight, snoring and insects could be heard in the valley, and the soldiers on duty at night were dedicated to their duties. They held torches and patrolled their own area to guard.
