Huan Rong

During these days when Lu Yan was in prison, Yang Liang and his son did not treat him badly.There is no shortage of meals every day, and clean clothes are delivered every two days.

The only requirement is to silently write down the knowledge of military, commercial and civil ways bestowed by Wang Meng.

It doesn't matter if you insist on not writing.The only thing is that the "treatment" will be reduced, dirty clothes will continue to be worn, and lice will suffer by themselves; the diet will be reduced, and all meat will disappear. At most, it will be boiled wild vegetables.

Continue to be tough, changing from two meals a day to one meal every two days, or even one meal every three days.

The men who guarded the cells were very experienced and knew how hungry people can go.According to what he told Yang Guang, he didn't need to be displaced, and he didn't need to take the whole family to avoid the butcher's knife of the thieves, and he would not die of starvation after eating one meal for three days.

"At the most chaotic time, wars broke out everywhere. The Han people in the north either had private soldiers and could bargain with the bandits, or they could only be reduced to sheep slaves. They really didn't want to bow their heads, so they had to take their families and flee for their lives."

"The tragedies of that year are clearly remembered by the elder father and the majesty at home."

"Hu thief is hateful!"

Buqu is in charge of guarding Lu Yan and delivering meals to him every three days.

Seeing Lu Yan's decline from arrogance to embarrassment and beard, seeing steamed cakes and wild vegetables with glowing eyes, he couldn't help showing a sneer on his face.

Pulling open the wooden board on the door, sending the pottery bowl into the prison cell, seeing Lu Yan rushing forward impatiently, grabbing the steamed cake and biting, the two of them rolled their eyes from choking, beat their chest hard, stopped laughing, A bowl of clear water was sent in.

When Lu Yan drank the water, he still did not forget to hold the steamed cake firmly.

Mo Qu suddenly lost the interest of ridicule, stood up, tightened the long knife around his waist, looked at Mr. Lu San who was swallowing the steamed cake, and shook his head in disinterest.

"The thief, the thief!"

Saying the word "Hu Thief" in his mouth, Bu Qu's expression changed again.

He pities this barbarian, who will pity the Han family in the Northland?

I think back then, if it wasn't for Di thief who was chasing him so hard, why would the elder father lose an arm, and how the majesty would be covered in whip marks all over his body.

Fleeing into Liangzhou City from the North, there are ten or eight refugees traveling with them.

After entering the city, due to the lack of medical treatment for their injuries, half of the remaining people went.

Because of his ancestral home in Hongnong, the eldest father was rescued by envoy Yang, and he saved his life just now.Since then, he has sworn allegiance to Yang Shijun. If future generations dare to have a second heart, they will be expelled from the clan, and they will not be called by their surname again forever.

The last prince of all mortal clans, if he meets someone who betrays him, he must kill him!

The trilogy is good, and he was named as Yang Guang's personal soldier, and he was trusted by Yang Guang.This time he was sent to guard Lu Yan, and seeing Di Qin Taiwei's son fall into such a situation, he felt relieved and saddened.

In troubled times, human life is worthless.

The common people are precarious, what will happen to the princes and nobles?

Today, he is proud and majestic, but in the future, the country will be ruined and his family will be destroyed, and he will be reduced to a prisoner!

It wasn't until the trilogy disappeared that Lu Yan put down the steamed cakes, his expression changed from "eager" to "cold", showing strong hatred towards Yang Liang and his son, towards Huan Rong, and even towards Wang Meng and Fu Jian!

He swore that as long as he could return to Chang'an, he would avenge this great revenge!

In the future, he will lead the army to the south, kill Yang Liang and his son, smash the corpses, and razed Liangzhou City to the ground!

Biting the tip of his tongue hard, severe pain spread from the wound.Tasting the smell of blood in his mouth, Lu Yan didn't realize it at all, picked up the steamed cake again, and ate one bite after another.

It seems that God is "taking care" of Mr. Lu San.

The prisoner's life soon came to an end, and Yang Liang sent someone to lift him out of the cell, and gave him a new suit of clothes, as well as saponin and green salt for him to wash and clean.

At first, Lu Yan felt apprehensive, not knowing what was behind this move.

Until a member of the Youzhou army told him face to face that in order to rescue him, Lu Polou made a "deal" with Huan Rong.After the matter was accomplished, Huan Rong kept his promise and let him leave without hesitation.

"My lord has something to say, Mr. Baolu left Liangzhou City safely."

He joined the army in his thirties, and his appearance is not very handsome, but he is born with a sense of kindness, which often makes people let down their guard unconsciously.

"The northern land is in flames of war. If Mr. Lu wants to return to Chang'an safely, he must be more careful."

Lu Yan cupped his hands in thanks.

All the beards on his face had been shaved off, but his haggard look remained undiminished.Compared with the former Mr. Lv San, he is not half as handsome, and seems to be ten years older.

Seeing Lu Yan boarding the carriage and driving out of the city alone, eager to join the guards sent by Lu Polou, Jun Jun smiled slightly, with his sleeves folded, and said meaningfully: "This time on the road, I wish San Gongzi a smooth journey."

Fearing that Huan Rong and Yang Liang would regret it temporarily, Lu Yan drove at a high speed and knocked down two peddlers along the road, causing a lot of scolding.If it wasn't for the hawker's luck, the state soldiers patrolling the street would never let him go if he just scratched the surface.

Gritting his teeth fiercely, Lu Yan untied the silk belt around his waist, which was regarded as a "wound medicine" to pay the peddler.Seeing that the peddler was dissatisfied, he had to take off his robe, and was finally let go.

After confirming that the state soldiers would stop blocking him, Lu Yan drove away immediately.It's just that he was much more careful in his actions, and he didn't go on a rampage, let alone hurt anyone.

In fact, if the peddler hadn't deliberately approached the carriage, this turmoil would never have happened, and Lu Yan didn't have to take off his belt and coat to gallop out of the city in a "chic" way.

Fortunately, in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, it was common for celebrities to be bold and uninhibited.When it was changed to Qin and Han, if you dare to run on the street with this image, you will definitely be pointed at, or even drowned in saliva.

Lu Yan ran all the way out of the city, not knowing that he was being calculated, even if he knew, he was powerless to care.

On the top of the city, Huan Rong, who had just put on the "heart black" hat, raised his eyebrows, looked at Yang Guang who was standing three steps away, and asked curiously, "Is this an accident?"

Yang Guang snorted through his nostrils, flicked his long sleeves, and said, "What's the accident, so what if it wasn't an accident? Does Mr. Huan want to pursue it?"

"Of course not." Huan Rong shook his head, looked Yang Guang up and down, and smiled brightly.

Yang Guang frowned fiercely, feeling uncomfortable being looked at, he just let out a cold snort and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Watching his back disappear into the city, Huan Rong rubbed his fingers, and suddenly realized that this man's personality is very interesting.As long as some shortcomings can be corrected, it may become a good "helper".

Of course, it is his own wishful thinking now, Yang Guang may not be happy.Judging from Caicai's attitude, if he dared to mention it, he would definitely get a "hehe" face.

But well...

Huan Rong turned around and looked at the Northland. With his national integrity, even if he was dissatisfied with himself, he should be able to stick to the bottom line in case of major events.

To use or not to use?

If you want to use it, shouldn't you give Mrs. Yang an olive branch?If you plan to form an alliance, how should you divide the benefits?

Thinking of Yang Liang's resignation and Huan Chong's suggestion, Huan Rong was a little uncertain.

"Forget it, it's still early to think about this."

For the current plan, first cut the flesh from Fu Jian and digest the vested interests.For the rest, we can wait for Jingzhou to return to the army.In addition, judging from the actions of Qin's troop deployment, it may not necessarily satisfy the interests he gave.

If the other party intends to make a bigger sum, should I avoid it, or openly grab it?

If you choose the latter, how should you proceed?

Huan Rong stood on the top of the city wall, looking up at the clear sky, clenching his fingers tightly, and finally made up his mind.

The second year of Ningkang, June

1 Jin soldiers marched northward from Weixing County, and with the help of military chariots, they defeated Di soldiers and counterattacked several times, captured several counties in a row, and went all the way to Xianyang County.

As a forward, Huan Shiqian must take the lead in the battle, killing Di will be more than a slap.

Five miles away from Xianyang County, the army was intercepted by a group of cavalry.

Different from the Di soldiers encountered earlier, this group of cavalry was extremely fierce, and they did not hesitate to charge their lives. Once they rushed into the battle formation, they would definitely cause a lot of casualties to the Jin soldiers.

Huan Shiqian recognized the leather armor on them and knew that they must be Di Qin elites,

"Array! Armed chariots are at the front!"

Now that the battle has been fought, there is no reason to retreat.

So what about the elite?

Fighting to the death to defeat this elite cavalry will surely break Chang'an's heart and make it even more chaotic!

The military chariots lined up in long rows, like a copper wall and an iron wall, firmly blocking the cavalry.

In order to avoid the incoming arrow rain, Di Bing had to avoid the front and turn to the side to charge.

General Di ordered the horn to be blown, and the Di soldiers immediately divided into two teams, led by a master of the building, bypassing the military chariot and attacking from the flanks.

Jingzhou soldiers are different from Youzhou soldiers. They don't have bamboo spears arrayed, but more spears and spears cooperate with each other, and cooperate with jumping soldiers to delay the cavalry's charge and divide and encircle them.

Looking down from above, the large formations form small formations, and the small formations are different from each other.It's not as chaotic as imagined, but quite organized.

The central battle formation is not chaotic, and [-]% of the Di soldiers who rush into the formation will be trapped, and there are Jin soldiers in front, back, left, and right.

Tiaodang soldiers are especially brave, with shields in their left arms and knives in their right hands. Several people rush forward together.

The horse was injured and trapped, neighing.

As soon as the jumping soldiers succeeded in hitting, they immediately erected their shields to block the Di soldiers' counterattacks, and used the grooves on the shield to support the Di soldiers' long soldiers, and pulled them off the horse with all their strength.

Even if it doesn't bring it down, it can be thrown off balance, which is handy for the Lancer.

Taking advantage of Dibing's unpreparedness, several spears came out together.

Di Bing only felt a chill in his chest, and lowered his head, half of the spear tip had broken through the breastbone and penetrated the leather armor.

At the beginning of the battle, Di Bing was not familiar with the battle formation, so he rushed in rashly and was trapped in it, causing a lot of casualties.But as more and more Di soldiers rushed into the formation, the advantage began to change, and the Jin soldiers near the edge were in danger of being washed away.

Di Bing seized the gap, exchanged his life for his life, and finally tore a gap in a corner of the battle formation.

"kill!"

Huan Shiqian noticed the battle situation, immediately turned his horse's head, and rushed towards the Di soldiers who had poured into the formation.

Seeing him rushing over, Di Jiang sneered, dragged his halberd backwards, and met him head-on.

When the main generals confronted each other, Di soldiers let out roars, and the offensive became more violent, and the edges of the battle formation were rushed to pieces.Not to be outdone, the Jin soldiers rushed forward desperately, and were pierced by spears in their shoulder blades, and they also dragged the Di soldiers to be buried with them.

The archers and spearmen were encouraged, their eyes were red, and they were full of infinite fighting spirit.

Many archers abandoned their longbows, drew out their sabers, or took weapons from their dead comrades, and rushed towards Di Bing in front of them.

The battle is heating up.

Huan Shiqian was stabbed in the left arm by Di Jiang, but also left a blood hole on the opponent's shoulder.The two horses snorted and neighed, and at the same time they stood up and slammed into each other fiercely, as if they were going to die together.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside the battle formation, followed by the sound of rumbling horseshoes.

The faces of both sides of the war changed.

The Jin soldiers thought they were the reinforcements of the Di soldiers, but the Di soldiers knew that the cavalry from the east would not be "our own people" at all!

The cavalry was getting closer, and the sound of horseshoes resounded across the plain.

Amidst the dust, the five-element battle flag roared violently, and the huge Qin characters written in seal script fell in the eyes of Di Bing, like a reminder for life.

"The servants of the Qin family!"

"Qin Xuanmin, Qin Silang!"

Wherever the Xuanjia spear passed, it almost became a nightmare for the Di people.

Qin Jing's "deeds" in the north were introduced to Chang'an early, and everyone in the Di army knew about it.Even if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he knew he was a ruthless person.

The Di soldiers in Shuofang and Wuyuan were almost killed by him, and all the cities were burned and reduced to ruins.

After Lu Guang's death, the imperial court never appointed Shuofang prefect again.

He didn't say it clearly, but in fact, everyone from the king to the officials knew that as long as Qin Xuanmin was alive, Shuofang and Wuyuan couldn't take it back.Even if he left northern border, it would be the same to lead troops south.

Neither of the warring parties expected that Qin Jing would appear outside Xianyang County.

Huan Shiqian knew about Huan Rong's plan, and logically, the Qin family should send troops from Hedong to harass Feng Xu and Hongnong, why did they suddenly appear in Xianyang?

Or, was that what they had in mind from the very beginning?

Invade Xianyang, Chang'an is close at hand!

Thinking of a certain possibility, Huan Shiqian secretly thought that it was not good, and when his heart was shaking, he was almost picked out by Di Jiang.Put aside your thoughts quickly, hold the opponent's long soldiers, and fight with all your strength.

Fighting again, Huan Shiqian added several more wounds, General Di smiled grimly, and was about to kill him in one fell swoop, when three long arrows flew from the oblique stab, one arrow hit General Di, and two arrows hit the horse directly.

rhythm --

The war horse wailed, and fell to its knees in an instant, its neck was pierced by an arrow, and two waterfalls of blood flowed out.

General Di fell off his horse, rolled on the spot, and was about to get up to fight again, when the strong wind hit his eyes in an instant.The Xuanjia black horse, like a black lightning bolt, pierced through the battle formation and charged directly at the fallen General Di.

Qin Jing held the gun with one hand, and with the impact of the horse, the tip of the gun pierced his chest directly, and the body of the gun pierced half of it.

Di will be hung on the gun and cannot die for a while.

Qin Jing yanked the reins and swept his spear across, leading Di General to sweep away several Di soldiers.

Seeing this scene, Qiangjie, Chile, and Xianbei who rushed into the battle shouted excitedly, as if what they saw were not the elite Di soldiers, but a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

"Ouch-"

Ranhu chopped down a Di Bingzhu with a single knife, and the blood spattered half of his body, making him look even more ferocious and terrifying.

The cavalry suddenly became murderous, howling like a pack of wolves, and gathered behind Qin Jing, like a sharp long knife, smashing vertically and horizontally, killing Di Bing like wolves, and they had no power to parry.

"Array! Don't let the remnants go!"

Suppressing the shock in his heart, Huan Shiqian made a decisive decision, ordered Buqu to blow the horn, gather spearmen, change the battle formation, and surround the fleeing Di Corps, so as not to let anyone go.

Qin Jing rushed back and forth among the Di soldiers, heard the horns of the Jin soldiers, and saw Huan Shiqian mobilizing the battle formation. He just shook off the blood on his gun, turned his horse's head again, and rushed towards the remaining Di soldiers. past.

In this battle, Huan Shiqian witnessed Qin Jing's ferocity with his own eyes, and couldn't help feeling jealous.Even if one's own side is not weak and has an advantage in defending the city, but in order to block such a cavalry, the strength of the troops must exceed several times.

Once the Qin family sweeps the north and intends to go south, then... Huan Shiqian took a deep breath and didn't dare to think about it.I made up my mind that when this battle is over, I will immediately send someone south to deliver a letter, sending out the news that the Qin family intends to invade Xianyang!

During the bloody battle outside Xianyang County, war broke out again in the west of Diqin, and Tuyuhun joined forces with Daiguo to storm the border of Diqin.

Bianjun was in a hurry, but the battle report sent by Fei was intercepted.

Although Lu Polou is ill, her influence in the army is still not small. In addition, there are rumors fueling the flames, and privately ordered people to contact Shuofanghou and Jianning Liegong's old troops, urging them to be more dissatisfied with Fu Jian, and did not intend to work hard for Chang'an at all. , but prepared to leave secretly and lead troops to the northwest to stand on their own.

"Yan'er has already left Liangzhou, Azi should make preparations, take advantage of the fire in Chang'an, and lead his family out of the city!"

"Father, please come with me!" Lu Deshi and Lu Bao knelt on the ground, their eyes were red and teary.

"I can't go." Lu Polou leaned against the couch, her cheeks blushing strangely, "Wang Meng is not dead yet, I can't leave Chang'an. Otherwise, none of you can leave. Only if I stay, Wang Meng won't leave." I will be suspicious. Besides, I am terminally ill, I will not live for a few days, and leaving will also be a drag."

"Father!"

"When a man is born, he must be broken!" Lu Polou stood up and said to Lu Deshi and Lu Bao, "After joining Yan'er, immediately lead the troops westward, avoid Tuyuhun, and seize Guzang!"

"Gu Zang?"

"Gu Zang!" Lu Polou coughed twice, and said forcefully, "Shi Yiqian can stand on his own, so can you! Yan'er once learned the way of governing the country from Wang Meng, and the three of you worked together to firmly occupy the Western Regions. With complete confidence, don’t re-enter the Central Plains!”

"promise!"

"There is no fixed number in troubled times." Lu Polou closed her eyes, with a little tiredness on her face, "Jie Qiang in the past, Dong Hu today, Di tomorrow, and in the future..."

"Father?"

"Azi, the Han Dynasty has established a hundred generations, and the people's aspirations. We are all foreigners. Even if we can occupy the Central Plains for a while, we cannot occupy it for a lifetime."

Lu Deshi and Lu Bao were standing upright, with solemn faces, listening to Lu Polou's teachings.

"At the end of the Han Dynasty, there was chaos, all the heroes rose together, and the princes competed for the throne, which finally led to this chaotic world."

"The Han Dynasty is chaotic, so we can gain a foothold in the Central Plains."

"However, the Han family has always had a lot of talents. Like a great roc, if you don't fly, you will be able to soar thousands of miles."

"You must firmly remember, defend the Western Regions, and don't easily re-enter the Central Plains."

"Once the Central Plains is cleared, immediately pay tribute and become a vassal!"

"promise!"

Lu Deshi and Lu Baoji agreed in unison.

Lu Yan, who was highly expected by Lu Polou, was hurrying all the way to Fufeng.Along the way, Lu Yan sent people to explore the road one after another, carefully avoiding villages, and beware of attracting Jin soldiers going north.

It's a pity that people's calculations are not as good as heaven's calculations. Less than a few miles away from Fufeng County, the team was stopped by a cavalry.

It wasn't Jin soldiers, nor Di soldiers, but Qin Jing who invaded Di Qin together with Qin Jing, received news from Huan Rong, and was waiting for Qin Jue on the way early!

"Lu Yan?"

Qin Jue was dressed in black armor, stuck his spear on the ground, ordered the cavalry to surround the carriage, and untied the bow and crossbow from the horse's back.

"Brother said, cut off the lineage of the Lu family."

Qin Jue raised the crossbow with one arm, and the flashing crossbow arrow flew out in the blink of an eye, piercing hard into the carriage, the tail of the arrow vibrated and buzzed.
