Chapter 473 Entering the customs and going south
In the early morning, the glow of the sun came to the eastern sky with brisk steps, and the blue-black silk cloth was gradually illuminated by gold. A few soft white clouds like cotton, smeared with a charming orange red by the sunset, are trimmed with gold.
The weeds in the fields beside the road stretched out their waists, and the dew on it was crystal clear.
On the north bank of the rushing Turbid River, the sound of dull marching steps sounded.
Knock ~ Knock Knock ~~
The rumbling footsteps woke up the guards of Mengjin Port, and the captain in charge of garrisoning this place hurriedly gathered his subordinates, set up shields and armed guards.
When the Gao Shun army arrived, the captain looked at the dense army, and his heart was a little bottomless, but he also asked loudly: "Who is coming?" â
Gao Shun, who led the army, urged him to take two steps forward, and his voice was loud: "Gao Shun, the general of the Huns, was ordered to go south to support Dong Taishi, and asked the captain to make it convenient for me to cross the river." â
Hearing that it was a friendly army, the captain's hanging heart was relieved, but he did not let them go rashly because of Gao Shun's words.
"Do you have a certificate?" The lieutenant asked again.
"There was an edict, but I was in a hurry and forgot to carry it." Gao Shun said calmly, but in fact, he didn't have any edicts, they were all made up casually.
The lieutenant glanced at Gao Shun suspiciously, a little more vigilant. It stands to reason that such an important thing should not be carried with you.
However, looking at Gao Shun's appearance, it didn't look like he was lying, the captain thought for a while, and gave a compromise method: "You wait here, and then I will send someone to Mengjin Pass to ask the general, and then make arrangements." â
Gao Shun was not in a hurry, he had always been a very patient person, and he arched his hand and said: "So, there is a captain of the labor school." â
The lieutenant whispered a few words to his henchman, and the soldier nodded his head and rode his horse across the river to the south.
Mengjin Pass is just across the Turbid River, across the river from Mengjin Port.
At the wolf riding camp behind Gao Shun, Cao Xuan listened to Gao Shun's words throughout the whole process, others didn't know whether it was true or false, but he knew it clearly. It was Lu Bu who he received the order to inform Gao Shun. So he knew very well that there was no such thing as an edict at all.
"Gao Shun, this guy, looks like a wooden and honest person. I don't talk on weekdays, but I didn't expect to lie, but my face is not red and my heart is not beating, one after another. Cao Xuan muttered quietly.
"Uncle Cao, doesn't your butt hurt anymore?"
"Cut, just twenty military sticks, how can you hurt me in the slightest. If it weren't for the face of the leader, Lao Tzu would have beaten Gao Shun and begged for mercy. â
"General Gao, Uncle Cao is talking bad about you again!" The brothers of the family opened their throats and shouted.
Cao Xing, who had just poured saliva, 'poofed', and the water in his throat almost choked on his throat. He puffed out his eyes, glared at the two pit goods, and hurriedly quibbled loudly: "Gao Shun, don't listen to them!" I said you were wise and martial! â
Cao Xing was beaten with a military stick, and he was beaten so hard that he couldn't get out of bed for several days.
Confess faster than anyone else.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh, and they all burst into laughter.
âŠâŠâŠâŠ
Mengjin Pass.
Lu Bu, who got up early, accompanied by the captain last night, patrolled the pass.
"Wenhou, you ran around all night last night, you should rest more. Such a trivial matter as patrolling the camp can be handed over to the lowly position. The lieutenant said flatteringly.
"Anyway, it's okay to wake up, just take a walk." Getting up early to patrol the camp is Lu Bu's habit.
The middle-aged captain with a bearded face beside him, named æŽ (pÅ«) Hu Chi'er, was not a Han Chinese, but a Yuezhi Hu from Xiliang.
Importantly, this person seems to have a lot of complaints about Ushisuke.
"Report~~~"
The soldiers from Mengjin Port entered the pass and went straight to see Lu Bu.
"What?"
"General, tens of thousands of troops have come from the north bank of the Turbid River, saying that they have sent south to help with the edict of the Taishi."
"Since it is under the edict of the Grand Master, let them come." Lu Bu said indifferently, he thought that he would have to wait a day or two for Gao Shun to arrive here, but he didn't expect to arrive so soon.
"But I can't take out the edict of the Taishi, saying that I forgot to bring it with me. Captain Wu didn't know whether it was true or not, so he specially ordered the villain to ask the general's opinion. "The soldier is truthful.
"Hmph, this Gao Shun is really getting more and more out of order! I dare to forget the edict of the Grand Master, and see how I reprimand him when I go back. â
Lu Bu feigned anger, looking like he was going to reprimand Gao Shun.
Hu Chi'er could understand it beside her, and it was obvious that Lu Bu also knew about it. Since there is Lu Bu's guarantee, there is no mistake.
He shouted at the soldier who was in a daze: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you go back quickly and let Wu Ren let the friendly army cross the river." If you miss the opportunity, can you afford it? â
Lu Bu glanced sideways slightly, leaving a slight impression on Hu Chi'er in his heart.
The soldier only obeyed, and quickly got out of the pass and ran to the other side.
Wu Ren, who was stationed at Mengjin Port, received a clear reply, and he was no longer embarrassed by Gao Shun, waving his hand to withdraw the defensive posture and give way to the way. He also acted according to orders and went through the process, even if something went wrong, he couldn't be blamed.
Gao Shun nodded in thanks, and led the black horse to the pontoon. The 30,000 troops behind him followed him and marched in a stream.
The foot pawn is in front, and the cavalry is in the back.
Cross the turbid river and come to Mengjin Pass.
The door has already been opened, and Gao Shun and others are allowed to move forward.
After entering the city pass, Gao Shun, who was leading the horse, had not walked a few steps before his body shook suddenly.
Ahead, a tall figure stood alone, bathed in the bright sunshine, looking at them with a smile.
Gao Shun never expected that his own lord would appear in this place. At first, he also prepared for the worst, preparing to storm Mengjin.
Now it seems that he is overthinking.
"The last general, Gao Shun, meet the lord!" Gao Shun clenched his fists, and his loud voice was mixed with a hint of excitement.
Everyone behind him was shocked, and when they looked forward, they exploded in an instant.
"General! Checkmate! General ......"
The continuous sound sounded, and the expressions on the faces of the soldiers were irrepressible excitement and excitement, and the feelings were sincere.
A mist rose in the eyes of the big men of the wolf riding camp.
This kind of feeling is difficult for others to feel.
Hearing this voice, Lu Bu's expression was moved, his eyes swept over the familiar faces, and his heart was full of emotion.
But now is not the time to celebrate the reunion, because there are more important things waiting for them to do.
"Captain Hu, this general wants to lead the soldiers to rush to the aid of the Tiger Prison Pass and help the Taishi break the enemy. Meng Jin is here, you will be in charge for the time being, and when General Niu Fu comes back, you can talk to him. â
Lu Butong and Hu Chi'er commanded, but Hu Chi'er didn't think much about it, and responded with his fists.
Time is of the essence, and every second counts.
Out of Mengjin Pass, Lu Bu led 30,000 soldiers and horses, and did not go in the direction of Tiger Pass.
Go straight to Luoyang!
