Chapter 374: Wind Volcanic Forest
Zhou Qi led his soldiers and horses to quickly rush towards the direction of Qu Ren in the distance, looking at the sunset that was about to set on the horizon, he couldn't help but show an anxious look in his eyes.
Guo Jia's face on the side was a little pale, obviously after a long journey, as a frail and sickly strategist, his body was a little weak, a drop of sweat the size of a bean quickly dripped down his cheeks, and the gorgeous clothes on his body had already been wet with sweat like a chicken in soup.
"Lord, can I slow down" Guo Jia felt as if his buttocks were about to crack, and he had to ask Zhou Qi and Zhou Haoran, the lord next to him.
Zhou Qi was slightly stunned when he heard this, but when he saw Guo Jia, who was pale, he was suddenly shocked, and hurriedly stopped the large army and cautiously came to the other party's side, "Feng Kao, what kind of war horse do you a strategist ride to quickly return to Zhang Song's frame, don't be exhausted because of the long-distance run, I still need you to help me win the world."
Guo Jia was very moved at first that the lord cherished his body, but he didn't expect the words behind the other party to come out, and his face was suddenly covered with black lines, it turned out that it was because of the use value that he would be like this, like a deep resentful woman staring at Zhou Qi and Zhou Haoran.
Zhou Qi felt the powerful resentment on Guo Jia's body, the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily, and then an embarrassed smile appeared on his face, jumped off the back of the three-eyed tiger and the broad tiger, and looked at the soldiers beside him who were a little pale, "Brother Dian Wei, send scouts to find a place to hide so that everyone can rest and recover their strength"
Dian Wei nodded when he heard this, and after a while, a group of elite scouts armed to the teeth quickly drove away, and the team disappeared from everyone's sight.
Guo Jia had also jumped off the horse at this time, tied the war horse under his crotch to the back of a personal guard war horse, stretched out his slender palm and patted the aching buttocks, as if this could be relieved.
Zhang Song, who was sitting in the frame, felt that the vehicle that was originally moving rapidly stopped, opened the car door for some unknown reason, and a gleam flashed in the eyes of the soldier who saw the soldier standing quietly on horseback, and couldn't help but think of Sun Tzu's Art of War in the volcanic forest.
"There are such elite soldiers and horses in the Han world, why should the lord worry about the injustice of the world" Zhang Song said with some excitement, his eyes burned to look at Zhou Qi and Zhou Haoran who were standing side by side with Guo Jia in the distance, and hurriedly jumped out of the carriage and walked quickly towards the other party in Meng Da's surprised gaze.
Zhou Qi and Zhou Haoran were also about to take a look at the surrounding scenery and relieve the fatigue on their bodies, when they heard footsteps around him, and looked towards the source of the sound and saw that it was Zhang Song, with a faint smile on his face, like a big brother next door, giving people a feeling of bathing in the spring breeze.
"Lord" Zhang Song came to Zhou Qi and Zhou Haoran's side, clasped his hands into fists, and bowed slightly.
"Ziqiao doesn't have to be polite, whether the deity can reach Chengdu smoothly this time depends on you," Zhou Qi saw that the other party bowed slightly, and hurriedly came to the other party's side, stretched out his strong hands to help him up, and said slowly with a pleasant face.
Zhang Song couldn't help but feel a little fluttering when he saw the lord like this, after all, the other party still needed to annex Yizhou by himself, and his originally tense body gradually relaxed, and he was about to say something, when he saw Guo Jia standing quietly like a wise man on the side
Looking at himself from the sidelines, his heart suddenly seemed to think of something.
The person in front of him is a character who makes the whole Han world tremble, even if he needs to rely on himself now, will he need it in the future, if he wants to stay in the Jingzhou Group where the fierce generals are like clouds and strategists, he obviously still needs the favor of the lord, if he accidentally doesn't know how to be a man with his tail between his legs, he doesn't know how to die.
"Report" turned out that when Zhang Song was talking to Zhou Qi and Zhou Haoran, a large amount of dust was raised in the distance, and then he saw a well-equipped scout galloping quickly, and when he came closer, he jumped up, clasped his fists with both hands, bowed slightly, and said, "Lord, there is a dense forest not far ahead that can be hidden."
The smile on Zhou Qi's face remained unchanged when he heard this, and a pair of eyes like eagles and falcons looked at each other for a moment, as if they could see through people's hearts.
When the scout saw the gaze of the lord, the whole person seemed to be thrown into the ice cave, and he couldn't help but shudder, and then his face showed a miserable white look, and he subconsciously stretched out his hands and tightened the clothes on his body, as if this could relieve the temperature in his body.
"Let's go, lead the way" Zhou Qi looked at it for a while and didn't notice anything unusual about the other party, so he simply ordered this person to lead the way, not worrying about any accidents.
"Brother Zhang Ren, a certain family can lead the soldiers and horses under his command to defect to you, if the big man and the horse master Zhou Qi and Zhou Haoran come to attack, there can also be a response, isn't it" Zhang Lu raised his head slightly, looked at Zhang Ren, who had no blood on his face on the city wall, and slowly spoke.
Zhang Renyan's face showed a look of hesitation, after all, he still had some knowledge of Zhang Lu's affairs, if he let the other party control himself unconsciously, just like those soldiers and generals around him at this time, wouldn't he lose the face of the master at home, but if he didn't cooperate with this person, if he wanted to defend the city under the iron hooves of Jingzhou's iron cavalry, it was obviously not a little difficult.
Zhang Lu saw that the other party looked hesitant, and a smile like a cunning fox appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if he was worried about being seen through and quickly restored his calm face, and stood quietly aside waiting for the other party's reply.
Yan Yan stood beside Zhang Ren, and when he heard Zhang Lu's proposal, a gleam flashed in his eyes, obviously very excited about this person's suggestion, even if there are not many soldiers and horses around the other party at the moment, but no matter how small the grasshopper is, it is meat, isn't it, just as he was about to speak, he saw that Zhang Ren had already said loudly, "Lord Zhang Lu, if a certain family is put into the city, I hope you don't do anything overstepping."
After careful consideration, Zhang Ren finally decided to let this person enter the city, only in this way can he better guard the city and prevent the big Han concubine, Zhou Qi, and Zhou Haoran from taking a step beyond the thunder pool.
"Boom" with the order issued, the soldiers in the city gate cave quickly lifted the jack pendant, only to see the towering suspension bridge like a high-speed rail beast falling quickly, the city gate was slowly pushed open from the inside, and I saw a team of soldiers standing on both sides of the city gate in an orderly manner, waiting for Zhang Lu and others to pass.
"Hahaha Brother Zhang, whether you can hold the city this time still needs your full help" Zhang Ren came to the city gate cave with the support of the old general Yan Yan, looked at Zhang Lu with a faint smile on his face, and hurriedly clasped his fists with both hands and arched towards the other party
Gong said slowly.
"Don't worry, a certain family will definitely do everything possible to help you and others defend the city, after all, Zhou Qi, the master of the Han Dynasty, is ready to cut off the head of a certain family" Zhang Lu patted his chest with an oath, which was a verbal promise to Zhang Ren.
"Report to General Yan Xing, there is an urgent secret report from the front" Yan Xing and others led their soldiers and horses into it after attacking the Yinping Pass, after all, there are still many soldiers and innocent people affected by the plague in the pass, if they abandon it like this, I am afraid that it will have an impact on the reputation of the lord, so they can only stay hard.
A soldier ran in quickly, and when he saw Yan Xing, who was sitting in the first place, he quickly knelt on the ground, clasped his fists with both hands, and bowed slightly, "General, the urgent report sent from the front" As he spoke, he put his hand into his arms, so that he was groping for something.
The eight generals in the hall saw the movements of the other party, or subconsciously put their hands on their waists, as long as this person dared to do anything unusual, he would inevitably be attacked by the storm class.
As the minutes ticked by, the soldier carefully took out a secret report from his bosom and held it high above his head, waiting for the lord to look at it.
After everyone in the hall saw such a scene, their originally tense bodies became relaxed, and they stood quietly waiting to read the secret letter.
When the candidate standing in the crowd saw Yan Xing's gaze, he suddenly felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and he couldn't help but shudder, and walked cautiously towards the soldier, took the secret report and checked it several times and didn't find anything wrong, so he simply stood up and walked towards Yan Xing's seat, and put it on the bookcase in front of the other party.
The moment Yan Xing picked up the secret report on the desk, his eagle-like eyes stared at the content for a moment, and then it was like an erupting volcano, his face turned red, and his burly body rose and fell violently, "Damn, we are actually behind Zhou Qi'er, this person has annexed Hanzhong County, and at this moment he is leading his soldiers and horses on the way to Ba County."
Jia Xu, who was standing beside Zhang Xiu, saw the other party's face change color, and a bad premonition rose in his heart, as if something was about to happen, and sure enough, he heard Yan Xing's words ringing in everyone's ears, "Mr. Wenhe, how can we quickly take Guanghan County into our hands, now Zhou Qi'er has integrated Hanzhong County, and is now preparing to attack Ba County, if the other party takes Ba County under his command first, can he withstand the anger of the lord" Zhang Ren sat in the first place with some empty eyes, Looking at the people in the distance, I couldn't help but think about one possibility after another.
Jia Xu obviously didn't expect Zhou Qi to be able to integrate the Hanzhong Bureau so quickly, but when he thought that the generals and strategists under the other party's command were all extremely powerful existences, there must be amazing energy, right.
"General Yan Xing don't panic, have you forgotten Zhang Ren, the governor of the capital under the command of Liu Zhang, the master of Yizhou, after being defeated by you, took the remaining 10,000 soldiers and horses to Chongguo in Brazil County to recuperate, but the heavenly palace is not beautiful, and the Han master Zhou Qi and Zhou Haoran also led his soldiers and horses to come, and the governor of Zhang Ren at this time is a temporary ally of us, setting up a natural barrier" to be continued
