063 The Bao Brothers
The jailer replied, "Bao Sima, the younger brother is an old friend of Brother Bao Shao, and at the invitation of Brother Bao, I have come to save you." β
Bao Xun was stunned: "My brother asked you to come?" β
The jailer nodded, quickly untied Bao Xun, and said to Bao Xun: "Bao Sima, please come with me quickly, I will take you out of here!" β
"Thank you, brother, for sacrificing his life, but I don't plan to leave here." Bao Xun bowed to the jailer.
The jailer was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Bao Sima, aren't you going with me?" β
Bao Xun nodded and said, "I don't have any guilt at all, it's just that Lu Qian is suspicious, so he locked me up here, if I escape now, it will be tantamount to admitting my guilt." At that time, Lu Qian will definitely send people to surround my home, and maybe even arrest my family and use them to blackmail me. I can't bother my family......"
"Bao Sima, you don't know yet, Lu Qian has already ordered all your family members to be arrested and imprisoned in the barracks. Brother Bao Shao escaped because he was drinking with me outside. Now, the whole city is searching for Brother Bao Shao, and it is inconvenient for him to come out and walk, so he has to entrust a few of our friends to come and rescue you. β
"What do you say? Lu Qian has already arrested all my family? Bao Xun was extremely surprised and hurriedly asked.
"Now that the whole city knows that after Brother Bao Shao learned about the cause and effect of your arrest, he was also angry, and specially asked me to come to save you."
Bao Xun couldn't hold back any longer, and escaped from the cell with the jailer.
As soon as he got out of the cell, Bao Xun saw that the officials and soldiers outside were all staggering, with some wine and meat beside them, and it seemed that they had all been manipulated by the jailer in the wine, and now they were asleep.
Bao Xun first changed into the jailer's clothes, and then, under the guidance of the jailer, he quickly escaped from the cell and walked all the way to the west of Changyi City.
The jailer took Bao Xun to a small alley, and after turning around and around, he came to the door of a private house.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
The jailer knocked on the door rhythmically, and after a while, the door was opened, and a burly man with a face like black charcoal peeked out of the door, and after glancing at the jailer and Bao Xun, he hurriedly looked around and asked, "No one is coming, right?" β
"I'll do something, don't worry, there will be absolutely no one behind." The jailer laughed.
The black-faced man opened the door completely, let the jailer and Bao Xun in, and then closed the door again.
He turned around, his face gloomy, and shouted angrily at Bao Xun: "It's all your good deeds!" β
Bao Xun shouted angrily in the face of the black-faced man, but instead of refutating, he lowered his head in shame, did not dare to look directly at the black-faced man, and said slowly: "Big brother, I'm really sorry, I didn't expect to involve you too......"
This black-faced man is Bao Xun's brother Bao Shao, Bao Xun has a total of two elder brothers, the eldest brother died early, and the second brother Bao Shao is only one year older than him, and the two of them are very similar in appearance and body shape.
However, there are some differences between the two brothers.
Bao Shao has a frivolous personality, bohemianism, does not like to be restrained, since he was a child, he likes to dance with guns and sticks, and follows his father to learn riding and archery, swordsmanship. After apprenticeship, he learned martial arts, and even practiced strong martial arts, and even his father Bao Xin was not his opponent. After Bao Shao left home and began to walk the rivers and lakes, when he encountered injustices, he drew a knife to help, and he made a lot of friends on the rivers and lakes.
Although the martial arts are not as strong as Bao Shao, he is familiar with military books and is very good at using soldiers, but he is low-key and has always disliked to show himself in front of people. When Bao Xin was alive, he once fought with his father as a foot soldier, and in the battle, he met Yu Ban, and the two hit it off at first sight, sympathized with each other, and soon became confidants.
Bao Shao sighed lightly and said, "It's come to this point, it's too late to say anything, and now our whole family has been arrested and imprisoned in the barracks, how are you going to rescue them?" β
Bao Xun said: "I didn't do anything wrong, I'm not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door." I'm not afraid of shadows, I didn't fornicate with Yu, I didn't betray the lord, and I didn't commit any major crimes, why did he Lu Qian arrest me? I'll go to him for a while, and I won't believe it, he ......."
As soon as Bao Shao heard this, he immediately became angry, and said angrily to Bao Xun: "Confused! Are you really stupid or fake stupid? If Lu Qian trusted you, how could he arrest you and put you in a prison cell? How could we even arrest our whole family? You're going to reason with him? Aren't you looking for death yourself? β
"What else can we do if we don't?" Bao Xun said.
"Now there is only one way to go......"
"What way?"
"I've already asked people to find out, Yu Ban is still outside the city, he hasn't left, probably waiting for the arrival of the Xuzhou army. Although Lu Qian is a Taishou, Changyi City is not his own decision, don't forget, those who stay here are our father's old departments, and you also have some prestige in the army, as long as you raise your arms, those old departments will naturally follow you. I have also contacted more than a dozen rich gentry in the city, on weekdays, Lu Qian has suppressed them a lot, they are all holding their breath, as long as I give an order, they will lead their families to join our team. In addition, there are many of my old friends in the city, and they will all do it with us for the sake of my face. β
Bao Xun said in surprise: "You want to rebel? β
"What rebellion is not rebellion, Cao Cao is your lord, not mine. And don't forget, Cao Cao's life was saved by our father, if it wasn't for our father, where would there be the current Cao Cao? β
"But eldest brother, if it weren't for Cao Cao, our family might have been ...... by the Yellow Turban thieves back then."
"You don't talk too much, do you fight or not, give me a happy word!" Bao Shao shouted.
Bao Xun frowned and hesitated.
Bao Shao said: "If you don't rebel, you won't be my brother in the future, and my Bao family won't have anything like you to eat inside and out......"
Bao Xun didn't say a word, and let Bao Shao abuse him wherever he was.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside, still a regular knock, and the jailer standing next to Bao Shao immediately went to open the door and directly let a person outside in.
The man looked panicked, and as soon as he entered the door, he said to Bao Shao: "Brother Bao, something is wrong, Lu Qian went to the cell, and after finding that Bao Xun was rescued, he sent an army to search around the city, and even went to the barracks in person, saying that the Bao family secretly communicated with the Xuzhou soldiers, and wanted to say that the Bao family was all beheaded to show the public!" β
As soon as these words came out, Bao Xun was immediately surprised, and hurriedly asked, "What did you say?" β
The man repeated the original words again, and Bao Shao added fuel and vinegar to the side: "Shuye! Things have come to this point, are you against it or not? If you don't rebel, our whole family will die at the hands of Lu Qian! β
Bao Xun was furious and shouted: "Lu Qian treats my Bao family like this, if I don't rebel, I will be sorry for my dead father!" Anti! β
Bao Shao saw his younger brother Bao Xun like this, he smiled, and his heart was even happier.
Subsequently, Bao Shao and Bao Xun went their separate ways, Bao Shao was responsible for contacting the rich gentry in the city and his old friends in the rivers and lakes, while Bao Xun went to recruit the old department, and then everyone rushed to the military camp together to save the Bao family.
Things went very smoothly, two quarters of an hour later, Bao Shao and Bao Xun respectively came to the barracks with people, but to Bao Xun's surprise, the barracks were as calm as water, and they didn't know anything about their arrival, and the soldiers in the barracks saw Bao Xun rushing over with people, and they surrendered without a fight, and took the initiative to kill Lu Qian's henchmen, and released all the imprisoned Bao Xun's family.
Bao Xun and Bao Shao's family were reunited, and Bao Shao asked Hao Hao to settle his family, and instigated Bao Xun to rush to the Taishou Mansion with people to kill Lu Qian.
In the Taishou Mansion of Changyi City, Lu Qian was worried about how to defend the city, and suddenly heard shouts of killing outside, and then a personal soldier ran in, and said in a panic: "My lord...... Bao Xun reversed ......"
"Isn't Bao Xun locked up in a cell? Why is it the other way around? Lu Qian stood up, picked up a long sword, pulled out the scabbard, and ran directly outside.
Before he could take two steps, Bao Shao, Bao Xun and others rushed in directly and surrounded the entire hall.
When the soldiers behind Lu Qian saw this, they fled directly, leaving Lu Qian there alone.
In the hall, Lu Qian was surrounded by Bao Shao, Bao Xun and others, there was no fear on his face, the horizontal sword was in front of his chest, he looked at Bao Xun, and said angrily: "I really didn't expect you to really rebel!" β
Bao Xun said: "It's all forced by you!" β
"Don't talk nonsense with him, just kill him!" Bao Shao said.
Bao Xun frowned and said to Lu Qian: "You have been surrounded, put down your weapons, I will spare you from death!" β
"Don't talk nonsense, kill if you want to kill, come on!"
Bao Shao shouted at the people behind him: "He usually suppresses you a lot, it's up to you today, kill him!" β
Those rich gentry who rushed over with Bao Shao, after seeing Lu Qian, they all hated the root of their teeth and were eager to try.
Bao Xun was one step ahead and shouted, "Let me come!" β
He jumped over with a single arrow step, and with a wave of his long sword, he slashed directly at Lu Qian.
Lu Qian hurriedly raised his sword to block, and the two were entangled together.
It's a pity that Lu Qian is not Bao Xun's opponent, after a few moves, Bao Xun knocked the long sword in Lu Qian's hand away, he stretched out his long arm, directly strangled Lu Qian's neck, and used the long sword on Lu Qian's neck, but did not kill him.
"I'm not as good as others, and I don't have anything to say, so you can kill me. Gong Cao will definitely avenge me and kill you thieves! Lu Qian regarded death as home, and he didn't beg for mercy when he died.
Bao Xun suddenly let go of Lu Qian and said to his subordinates: "Tie him up!" β
Bao Shao and the others were stunned, and said to Bao Xun: "You don't kill him?" β
"I have no intention of killing him, it is better to tie him up, and after opening the city gate, hand him over to Yu Ban for disposal, so that I will not be infamous for killing sages." Bao Xun said.
"Despicable!" Lu Qian scolded.
Bao Xun's subordinates quickly tied up LΓΌ Qian, and then Bao Xun had the city gates open and sent someone to inform Yu Ban to take over the city.
In the woods outside the city, Zhang Yan and Yu Ban had been waiting for a long time, seeing that the sky was about to get dark, but they saw that all the Cao Zi military flags on Changyi City had been lowered, and soon after, the city gate was wide open, and a group of people stood at the city gate, and one of them rode a horse to gallop towards them.
Seeing this, Yu Ban got up and said to Zhang Yan: "Lord, please gather soldiers and horses, and prepare to take over Changyi City!" β
