Volume 3 Chapter 291 Retaliation

Zhong Lihao had sent a telegram to Lu Ren before they set off from Chang'an. They thought that Lu Ren was in Yizhou at this time, but they didn't know that Lu Ren was actually hiding in the waters near Shangyong.

Lu Ren's original intention was to take a closer look at the next developments in Chang'an, and if there was anything to do, he planned to directly pick up the first batch of Yizhou disciples led by Xu Shang, but he didn't expect to wait for such a telegram.

Lu Renke knew a lot of things very well, so he quickly figured out why Cao Pi didn't send reinforcements, and he was angry at that time. More than 600 elite children of the younger generation, they are all Lu Ren's heart!

They were sent by Lu Ren to Chang'an to experience here, if they died in the war, Lu Ren didn't have anything to say, after all, the real elites have to go through the baptism of blood and fire to really grow up, and Lu Ren will not blindly put them in the greenhouse. But if you die for such a reason now, what is the difference between that and being framed for a vain death?

In a hurry, Lu Ren couldn't take care of it anymore. There are more than 600 elite children, and how many can be rescued are a few. So Lu Ren called Shirley and boarded the board together and headed for Chang'an.

Shangyong is actually not far from Chang'an, the straight-line distance is about 200 kilometers, but the two places are blocked by patches of mountains. But for Lu Ren and Shirley, who were flying in the sky on a flying board, the mountains were not a big deal.

In general, when Zhong Lihao and the others set off from Chang'an City, Lu Ren and Shirley also set off from Shangyong to Chang'an. Lu Ren and Shirley's flight speed was much faster than Zhong Lihao's horses, so although Lu Ren and Shirley's distance was about twice as far as Zhong Lihao's, they could actually arrive at the incident site before Zhong Lihao and them.

But the problem is that Lu Ren and Shirley don't know where Xu Shang's specific location is, so they have to explore after arriving at a certain location, which also delays some time. Later, it was the smoke rising from the forest area that provided the coordinates for Lu Ren and Shirley, and Lu Ren and Shirley found the exact location and hurried over. At this time, Zhong Lihao and the others were already slaughtering the Western Regions Rangers with revenge.

Although Lu Ren was angry, his years of experience made Lu Ren not lose his due calm, so when he saw that Xu Shang's remnants of more than thirty people had been rescued, Lu Ren did not go down to make a move, but set his eyes on the fleeing ranger leader, and chose to come down to make the final blow when Zhong Lihao chased a large distance and obviously couldn't catch up.

Now that this blow has been successful, there are only more than forty Yizhou disciples who have caught up, so Lu Ren nodded silently and called Zhong Lihao to his side.

"Why is the lord here?"

Lu Ren looked around at these Yizhou disciples, and said with a gloomy face: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't say what you shouldn't say, there are some things you know, forget it, but keep your mouth tight for me!" ”

The Yizhou disciples glanced at each other, and then nodded to Lu Ren in unison. Seriously, in addition to being their lord, Lu Ren is also the object of worship in their hearts. Now they suddenly see that the idol in their heart shows such "supernatural powers", and their hearts are ...... Well, to borrow a phrase: "The Lord is a true god and a man!" ”

Lu Ren looked at the forest area where smoke was still rising again, and his tone became more and more gloomy: "This time the matter can't just be left like this!" I asked you to come to Chang'an, and now that something like this has happened, I, Lu Ren, have to give you an explanation, and I have to let Cao Pi, that bastard bastard, give us an explanation for the children of Yizhou! ”

Zhong Lihao and the others nodded in unison. If something like this happens, who will feel good in their hearts?

Seeing that Lu Ren lowered his head and pondered for a while, he called Zhong Lihao to the front and whispered in Zhong Lihao's ear, but Zhong Lihao couldn't stop nodding......

When the battle here in the forest area was basically over, Zhong Yu led 3,000 cavalry to arrive. Look at the traces of the battle left along the way...... To be honest, the scale of this battle was not large, and the traces left behind were not tragic, so although many Cao Wei cavalry could not be said to be dismissive of this, most people thought that it was just like that. It's not that they're cold-blooded, it's that the battle here in Chang'an has been fought for two years, what kind of big scene haven't they seen?

However, compared to the cavalry under his command who did not react much, Zhong Yu's face was a little ugly. There are some things that Zhong Yu was mentally prepared for, but when he got to the ground, Zhong Yu still felt that things were far more difficult than he thought before.

The battle is already over, and the children of Yizhou have begun to collect the bodies of their classmates who died in the battle, and at this moment, the eyes of the children of Yizhou who handed them to Zhong Yu were full of coldness and hostility. Such a gaze aroused the resentment of Cao Wei's cavalry, but it made Zhong Yu feel a little faintly uneasy.

After a little hesitation, Zhong Yu ordered the cavalry under his command to help collect the bodies of the children of Yizhou, but the result was ......

"Fuck off! When I asked for help before, I didn't save him, but now I came after the battle, what kind of good person are you pretending to be!? ”

When such a quarrel came together, Cao Wei's cavalry was not happy. To be honest, these Cao Wei's cavalry are actually quite innocent, after all, what does the intrigue between the upper echelons have to do with them? Now they are helping to collect the bodies of the children of Yizhou, which can be regarded as a kind help, but they are scolded by the children of Yizhou like this, where are they happy?

Seeing that the quarrel was likely to escalate into a fight, Zhong Yu hurriedly ordered the cavalry under his command to retreat, and then watched in a daze as the Yizhou disciples gathered the bodies of their classmates together. And as the oppressive and dull atmosphere gradually spread, Cao Wei's cavalry also noticed something, which made their hearts feel a burst of guilt.

After killing the Western Regions Rangers, Zhong Lihao and the others got a lot of horses, and now the children of Yizhou are carrying the bodies of their dead classmates on horseback. After making sure that there was nothing missing, Zhong Lihao and the others ignored Zhong Yu, and drove their horses forward and began to return to Chang'an. Seeing this, Zhong Yu didn't want to ask much, so he could only follow behind with Cao Wei's cavalry.

With such a team, the atmosphere is naturally not good. I don't know when or by whom, the children of Yizhou began to sing songs with tragic meanings, but the atmosphere of the marching team was a little duller.

The road of more than 200 miles, with hundreds of corpses, is still in such an atmosphere, and it is natural to walk not quickly. When the team arrived at the foot of Chang'an City, it was already evening.

Zhong Yu in the team was secretly relieved when he saw Chang'an City from a distance and saw that he had appeared in sight, but when he approached the city gate, he saw a group of people who were obviously fleeing guarding the city gate, Zhong Yu's heart jumped again.

These people were naturally the people saved by Xu Shang and them, and when Zhong Lihao arrived at the scene of the incident, he asked Nie Qian to take a few people to inform Wu Yu who was going to the north entrance of Meridian Valley. Later, when Lu Ren arrived, Zhong Li Haoyou informed Lu Ren of this matter, and Lu Ren went to the north entrance of the Meridian Valley and asked Wu Yu and Nie Qian to take these fleeing people to Chang'an. Of course, it is indispensable to give another explanation to Wu Yu and Nie Qian. And Meridian Valley is not far from Chang'an City, and these fleeing people are also eager to be contained by Chang'an City, and they have to arrive an hour before Zhong Lihao, Zhong Yu and others.

I don't mention these trivial things, but I just said that when these people saw the team coming, they came up, and then they saw the bodies of those Yizhou children on horseback. Perhaps many of these people are a little selfish, but many more are not the kind of people who have no heart and no lungs. Seeing that these Yizhou disciples who saved themselves from the butcher's knife of the thieves were now cold corpses, many people cried at that time, and many people knelt down to salute to express their gratitude and respect in their hearts, and then spontaneously gathered around these bodies and escorted them into Chang'an City.

Such a thing will naturally attract onlookers from the military and civilians in Chang'an City, and it will naturally cause inquiries and discussions from people who don't know why. It was at this time that some garbled words spread out of their mouths:

"What's going on?"

"I heard those people who entered the city say that they were robbed and killed by the bandits in the Western Regions last night, and these Yizhou children who were originally going back to Yizhou happened to pass by, so they rescued these fleeing people. Then the people fled, but the children of Yizhou fought with the thieves of the Western Regions for a whole night, as if to say that more than 600 children of Yizhou, in addition to the dozens who took the people away, only about 30 died. ”

"Fought all night? How did you fight for so long? ”

"Not really! In addition, I also heard that the children of Yizhou originally sent people to Chang'an to ask for help, but I don't know why the reinforcements here in Chang'an did not set off until this morning, but before the reinforcements from Chang'an left, the remaining hundreds of Yizhou children in Chang'an City rushed over first. ”

"What? Isn't that similar to our Chang'an not sending troops to rescue at all? ”

"Uh!! Be careful, be careful!! ”

Be cautious of what you say! The more cautious you are about some words, the faster they can spread. Gradually, the people in Chang'an City looked at their own soldiers and looked at them a little hard.

Some things have to be said, although the number of Yizhou children here in Chang'an is not much, and the total is only a thousand, but there are a lot of things to do in Chang'an City, and they have a corresponding reputation. Not to mention anything else, in the past two years, medical personnel alone have often conducted free clinics, which can already have a great impact on the military and civilians in Chang'an. And the personnel in other aspects also left a deep impression on the military and civilians of Chang'an.

Because of this, now I hear that these Yizhou children died so many in order to save the people, but their own soldiers didn't even extend a helping hand...... After all, there are only a very few people in the world who have no heart, no lungs, no face and no skin, and more people will have their own sense of regional belonging and honor. And now this kind of thing really makes the soldiers and civilians here in Chang'an feel shameless, and even a little ashamed of the children of Yizhou who have helped them a lot in the past two years.

No one noticed that at this moment, Lu Ren was mixed in with many Chang'an people. Seeing that those remarks were gradually spreading, Lu Ren's originally gloomy face finally slowed down slightly. But after taking another look at the bodies of those Yizhou disciples who were lying on horseback, Lu Ren's heart was angry, and even more blood:

"What the hell! These are all the elite children of my younger generation in Yizhou! How many people can my Yizhou College graduate in a year, and how many elite children can there be!? Cao Pi, Cao Pi, don't think I don't know why you didn't save you, I can understand why you made such a choice as a candidate now, but did you go too far? The white-eyed wolf is white to your part? Yes! Then don't think about the next thing!! ”

Seeing off the children of Yizhou, Lu Ren quietly left. Next, Lu Ren has his own arrangement.

When Cao Pi received the news that a lot of Yizhou's children had died, a slight sneer hung on the corner of his mouth. However, Cao Pi still has to do something on the faΓ§ade, so he is already waiting in the camp of the children of Yizhou at this time. Seeing that the team was coming, Cao Pi wanted to go over and say a few nice words, but soon found that almost no one paid attention to him.

No matter what Cao Pi said, he was also the Duke of Wei, and the children of Yizhou ignored him, which made Cao Pi's face a little unbearable. Finally, Zhong Lihao got Lu Ren's explanation, and when he saw that he was about to talk to Cao Pi, it made Cao Pi's face look better.

After a few polite words and beautiful words, Cao Pi said tentatively: "Zhong Liduwei (Zhong Lihao's official title in Yizhou, after all, although Lu Ren has carried out military reform, some things still have to be in accordance with the Han system), last night Lone failed to help the children of Yizhou, it is really Lonely's fault." But now...... Alas! And let Gu pay for the burial of these ......"

Zhong Lihao responded lukewarmly: "Don't bother Wei Gong. The lord has sent back an urgent telegram, ordering me to cremate the remains of the dead in battle and bring the ashes back to Yizhou for burial. ”

Saying that, Zhongli Hao looked at Cao Pi hatefully, and there was already twelve points of disrespect in his tone: "In addition, the lord asked me to bring a sentence to Duke Wei: The reinforcements were delayed last night, and the lord already knew what the reason was." And my Yizhou children were ordered to come here, in order to go to the country with the Duke of Wei and expel the foreign criminals, my Yizhou children have never done anything to be sorry for the Duke of Wei, but in the end, the Duke of Wei treated our Yizhou children like this, which is really chilling. ”

After a pause, Zhong Lihao continued: "The Lord Duke has already ordered me to wait for all the children of Yizhou to evacuate Chang'an from now on, because with such a Duke of Wei, I don't know when your Duke Wei's knife will stab you in the back." And the words of the Lord Decree to the Duke of Wei at the end are only four words, that is: Do it yourself! ”

In this way, Cao Pi's face turned blue at that time. He is a wise man, where can he not hear the implicit meaning of these words? And these words carried a heavy sense of disrespect, which provoked the guards around Cao Pi to sink their faces, and some people wanted to draw their swords at the moment, but Cao Pi stopped them in time......
