Liu Mang left Hedong and came to Hongnong. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Hongnong is the forefront of preventing the Western Liang Army from going east out of Tongguan, and Wang Meng sits here.

The Hongnong soldiers are well fed, and most of the main cavalry of the Luoyang Army are equipped here, and there are more generals such as Deng Qiang and Guo Kan guarding important places, so Liu Mang is naturally relieved.

In Hongnong, listening to Wang Meng and Deng Qiang's report on the preparations, Liu Mang was very satisfied.

was about to leave for Luoyang, when he suddenly received a report that Nanyang sent a messenger.

Zhang Xiu returned to his heart, occupied Wuguan, and opened up the passage between Nanyang and Sili.

In the past, Nanyang led to Sili, and could only detour to Yingchuan. To rush from Nanyang to Hongnong, Hedong and other places, you need to go around the circle of the boss and walk hundreds of miles.

Nowadays, it is only necessary to pass through Wuguan and climb a few mountains.

However, there are no major roads in the mountains, and the trails are extremely rugged.

Don't say that the army, even the small team, can't pass.

This was supposed to be a channel for smugglers to get their goods. In the past, Hedong salt dealers took this route as soon as they took away smuggled salt to Nanyang. On the way, there are many wolves and beasts, and there are often bandits.

The road is difficult, but after all, the distance is shortened by hundreds of miles. Some bold traders often travel in groups. Nanyang and Hongnong and other places also often pass through the roads here to transmit information.

Due to the many risks on the way, especially important information is not yet allowed to be transmitted here. And the scouts and messengers who delivered the message also disguised themselves as commoners, and traveled in company with merchants.

……

Such a convenient path, but not safe.

Gao Xi suggested building a few stops in between, as official post inns, convenient for people to rest.

A small number of troops were stationed to protect the passage.

This time, Gao Xi sent a messenger to Hongnong to discuss the matter with Wang Meng.

The construction of the post inn has its own subordinate officials to communicate and coordinate, and there is no need for Liu Mang to ask. But Liu Mang was very interested in this passage.

Since there is a passage between Nanyang and Hongnong, is there a passage that can avoid Tongguan and Shangluo and enter Jingzhaoyin in Yongliang?

Liu Mang immediately called the Nanyang messenger to inquire about the situation.

The messenger was also lean, but his face was covered with bruises and he was very embarrassed.

"How do you make it look like this?"

"Your Lord...... On the way, I encountered a bandit, and in a hurry, I fell into ......"

It seems that this road is really difficult to walk.

"Do you know if this road leads somewhere else?"

The messenger shook his head. "I don't know. encountered a bandit this time, thanks to the guidance of his fellow brother, he escaped with his life through the mountains and forests. ”

The messenger does not know, but those who travel with him may know.

"Take me to meet my fellow travelers."

Liu Mang and Yang Wenguang changed into civilian clothes and followed the Nanyang messenger to the outside of Hongnong City.

Liu Mang emphasized agriculture and did not suppress business, and commerce flourished under his rule. In many big cities, there are permanent bazaars to facilitate trading.

As a traffic artery connecting the east and west of Beijing, north to Hedong and Bingzhou, Hongnong is the distribution place of materials from all over the world, and the market is very large.

The Yongliang War is imminent, and the Hongnong Bazaar is not only not deserted, but more active.

Once the war starts, trade will be affected. The merchants were shrewd and wanted to stock up on goods before the war began.

Hongnong Bazaar is crowded.

In addition to the trading team of the merchant name and the family, there are also many merchants who form gangs. Of course, there are also hawkers who run small businesses.

In order to facilitate the rest of the merchants, near the bazaar, there are inns and simple mat sheds.

Liu Mang followed the messenger, inquired all the way, and finally found the person he was looking for in the woods far away from the market.

This group of people are all Nanyang hawkers, and they can't even afford to live in the shacks, so they can only take shelter in the woods.

Although Liu Mang was dressed in civilian clothes, his bearing was extraordinary.

These Nanyang hawkers, in order to make a living, travel long distances, and sell goods, naturally there are prohibited things.

Seeing that Liu Mang's bearing was extraordinary, and he was either official or noble, the hawkers were very nervous and avoided them one after another.

There was a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, thin and dirty. The appearance is not amazing, but a pair of eyes, dark and shiny. Followed the Nanyang hawkers to dodge, but they didn't seem to be panicked.

"That's him."

Liu Mang smiled and said to the young man: "This little brother, there is labor." ”

The young man's vigilant eyes looked Liu Mang up and down, hesitated for a moment, and still walked over.

Liu Mang politely asked, "Dare to ask the little brother's surname." ”

"Hey...... The people of the mountains and grasses, the cheap and cheap names are not enough to worry about......"

The hawkers are lucky with their smuggled goods, and they dare to reveal their names.

Fortunately, the messenger was familiar with the vendors along the way, and quickly explained: "Don't be afraid, old brothers, this is my master, and I just have something to ask." ”

After some explanation, Liu Mang asked Yang Wenguang to buy food and fruits, and all the vendors finally dispelled their concerns, gathered around one after another, and took the initiative to report their names.

And Liu Mang is most interested in that young man.

Although the young man was a man of the mountains, he did not speak as vulgarly as other hawkers.

Liu Mang asked the young man's name again, and the young man no longer hid it.

It's just that the young man stutters a little when he speaks. It seemed to take a lot of strength, and with a "hey" sound, his face turned slightly red, so that he could say the rest of the words. "Hey...... Grass people, Deng Fan. ”

"Hey......" a hawker deliberately imitated the way the young man spoke, "Hey...... Haven't you changed your name? ”

The vendors who were chewing their stuff burst into laughter.

The young man's face turned red again, but he didn't bother with everyone. Nodding. "Hey...... Grass People, Deng ...... Mugwort. ”

This name has obviously just been changed, and young people are not used to it.

"Oh, Deng Ai."

Liu Mang said casually, but suddenly froze and stared at Deng Ai!

Deng Ai?!

Could it be that in the later period of the Three Kingdoms, Deng Ai, the general of Cao Wei?!

Although Liu Mang's history is poor, in the later period of the Three Kingdoms, there were only a handful of famous generals, and Deng Ai was the most outstanding among them!

Or laugh at Zhang Feihu, or laugh at Deng Ai to eat!

Stuttering, that's exactly Deng Ai's label!

The last time he was summoned, the ruler of the Three Kingdoms period, was Deng Ai?!

And the system also took the initiative to contact Liu Mang, and said congratulations: "Congratulations! Summoning Deng Ai this time, it's so hanging! ”

"Why do you say that?"

"Historically, Deng Ai was born in 197 AD. If you summon a little later, he'll be born! If you want to accept him again, I'm afraid you will have to wait for more than ten or twenty years! ”

"Hahaha, so I'm lucky!" Liu Mang smiled, and couldn't help but wonder. "However, Deng Ai in history is about to be born, how did this Deng Ai get in?"

"You should ask Deng Ai himself about this ......" (to be continued.) )
