Chapter 46: A Call for Help

"Huangsha Pass, Qiu Ge led the black panther to break the enemy, Huangsha Pass was temporarily stable, 50,000 troops from Tubo stormed Mubox Pass, Ma Jing led his troops to help, Duanmu is asking for help from the King of Qin and the imperial court, the national soldiers of the counties and counties are gathering, and the naturalized Qiang Xianbei and Huns have drawn about 2,000 troops to hold the ..... in Xiaoguan. ”

Liu Han looked at the news from Lao Huang, the map of Liangzhou unfolded in his mind, his brows furrowed slightly, there are three paths for Tubo to invade Liangzhou, one is the wooden box pass, outside the pass is Tubo, this road is very direct, but the wooden box pass is dangerous, as far as he knows, the front of the wooden box pass can be expanded at most only seven or eight thousand people, more is useless, and to attack such a dangerous pass as the wooden box pass, the force must be ten times or even more than twenty times.

An army of 50,000 seems like a lot, but in fact, if you can capture the wooden box pass, these 50,000 people can be left with a maximum of 10,000, and after Atletico led the troops to reinforce, 50,000 people are not enough at all.

The second road is through the Huangsha Pass, which is actually the intersection of the Xianbei and Tubo families of the Great Jin Dynasty, and is a strategic place, after Qiu Ge led the troops to reinforce here, it was very difficult for the Tubo people to attack Liangzhou.

The third road is through the territory of Xianbei in the west, attacking Luoyan Pass, this road to bypass the territory of Xianbei, if in peacetime, it will definitely cause the counterattack of the Xianbei people, but now, the troops of Xianbei in the west are concentrated in Yongbei, the west is empty, if Tubo with a strange soldier, through the territory of Xianbei, raid Luoyanguan, then Liangzhou will be dangerous.

On the whole, the biggest problem in Liangzhou is the lack of troops.

"The battle outside the plug is basically unfought," Liu Han put the information on the oil lamp and burned it, and looked up to Liu Huo and said.

Liu Huo asked with some concern: "Do you want to remind Lao Wang to transfer some of the personnel and goods first." ”

Liu Han thought for a while: "The house can't be turned away, the materials, don't move for the time being, our Hanhai Trading Company is also a big trading company in Liangzhou, if we move, it will inevitably cause panic in the market and turmoil in people's hearts." Things don't move, but people have to move, tell Lao Wang, send the family to Chang'an, although the matter of Liangzhou, I think, if the Tubo people are not too stupid, they will not attack Guzang, but safety is the best. ”

Liu Han said, Liu Huo remembered, they are now on the edge of a small village by Changchun Lake in the east of Yangzhou City, this small courtyard is like many small farm yards in the village, there is a vegetable field in the yard, the mustard in the field is green, the roof is covered with thatch, and there is a nest built by swallows under the eaves.

The yard was rented by Liu Huo, except for him, no one knew that the branch of Hanhai Trading Company was in Jiankang, and there was only one Sun company and joint venture company in Yangzhou, Liu Han did not alarm Sun Company, and secretly informed Liu Huo to let him come from Jiankang secretly, and it had been almost a month since Liu Huo came, and Liu Han was still in Yuanyingkou at that time.

Liu Han didn't plan to use Liu Huo's chess piece at first, but now he had to use him. Now, in the vicinity of Yangzhou City, as long as he emerges, he may be hunted down and killed by that great grandmaster.

After Liu Huo drafted the order, Liu Han translated it into a password, which is very simple, but it is unique in this world, no one can decipher it, and the code book is only available to Lao Huang and him.

The birds were brought by Liu Huo from Jiankang, the two birds rose into the air, Liu Han clapped his hands, returned to the house, and saw Liu Han sitting on the ground, he hesitated and asked: "Master, what should we do next?"

"You immediately go back to Jiankang and tell Kangcheng that to implement the evacuation strategy, you must be vigilant against their attack on the Jiankang branch. ”

Liu Huo hesitated and asked: "What about the master's side, I'd better stay, I'll just ask Xiao Chao and them to send a message, besides, Xiao Chao is fine, Kang Cheng may not be fine." ”

"Hope cannot be placed in the mercy of the enemy. Liu Han said lightly, and said without raising his head: "Besides, you can't interfere in my affairs, unless you cross the threshold." ”

Liu Huo smiled, his cultivation was no more than the sixth grade of the martial artist, and he had not yet stepped into the upper grade of the martial artist, such a cultivation, Liu Han did not dare to let him get involved in such a fight.

Liu Huo's cultivation is lower than that of the knife, although it is said that it is not too low, but his own people can take less risks if they can take less risks.

However, Liu Huo was also secretly frightened, this time the opponent was so powerful that even the martial arts class could not participate, thinking of this, he couldn't help but be secretly worried.

Liu Han got up and wrote a note and handed it to Liu Huo, the strip was not folded, so it was handed to Liu Huo, Liu Huo looked at it, there were some zigzag symbols on it, I don't know what it means.

"You send this to the city, in the City God Temple, in the backyard, there is a crooked neck tree, there is a small hole in the side of the tree, you put this note in a small bamboo tube, put it in, and then, at the mouth of the alley on the left side of the City God Temple, paste this on. ”

Liu Han said and gave him another note, this note also didn't write anything, there was a symbol on it: swastika.

"Yes, master. Liu Huo didn't ask anything, bowed his head and answered, and Liu Han ordered: "After doing all this, don't come back, go back to Jiankang immediately." ”

"Yes. ”

After Liu Huo responded, he immediately began to put on makeup, and after a while, he became a slightly old man, and after going out, he put the back basket by the door, and the whole person looked like another person.

After Liu Huo left, Liu Han closed the door, and then meditated on his own, and in the evening, seeing that the time was almost up, he touched his arms and took out the iron armor talisman, the aura on the talisman was dim, and he sighed softly, I don't know if this thing can support the next battle.

"Shouldn't you go back?"

In the past few days, Liu Han has been asking this question repeatedly in his heart, Qingxu Sect is not far away, and he will arrive after two days of walking across the river, but he is still very hesitant, and he always feels that if he does this, he will lose his changes in the future.

"What's that hole in the bottom, can the flying sword kill it?" Liu Han really wanted to take a risk, attack that guy with a flying sword, see if he could kill that guy, and then monopolize this spiritual vein and the large bamboo grass under the water.

Liu Han thought for a long time, then took out the flying sword talisman again, the aura on the flying sword talisman was also very dim, he breathed a sigh of relief, put the two spirit talismans into his arms, went out and brought in a bird outside the door, tied a small bamboo tube to the bird's legs, and went out to release the bird.

The bird flapped its wings in the air and turned around and flew south.

Liu Han silently looked at the direction in which Du Niao flew, and after a while, he did not hide his regret, this spiritual vein was given to the Qingxu Sect like this, anyway, he didn't think about immortality, and he was not interested in cultivating immortals, if he could let the Qingxu Sect send people to help, and give more pills and spirit runes, it would not be a loss.

Turn around and go back into the house, sit down cross-legged, and begin to meditate quietly.

Time passed in a flash, and when he opened his eyes, it was already getting dark, and he got up and went out, closing the door carefully.

This small village is not big, there are not many people, and it is impossible for these ordinary villagers to notice with his cultivation, and he easily avoided the villagers he might encounter.

Out of the village, he immediately quickened his pace, at this time, it was late, there was almost no one on the road, and after walking about ten miles, he saw a small wharf, there were several boats docked on the wharf, he stopped, stood under a willow tree, and quietly looked at the wharf extremely close.

After observing for a while, Liu Han slowly walked to the dock, and when he arrived at a boat, the boat was tied to the side alone, the gangplank fell on the shore, and there were faint figures in the cabin.

Liu Han walked up to the bow of the boat, and the people in the cabin immediately noticed that the boat lady came out of the curtain, smiled at him, and greeted him warmly: "The guest officer is here, please come in, please come in, our daughter has been waiting for a while." ”

Liu Han smiled lightly, touched the boat lady's face, and then picked the curtain in, Niu Fu and Song Sister-in-law's two daughters were in the cabin, Xiu Niang saw him come in, couldn't help glaring at him, Zhen'er came over with a smile and gave a salute: "Guest officer, you see that the slave family is good to serve you, my sister has been unwell recently, and the slave family is still a clean official." ”

Liu Han smiled: "Little girl, it's spring, hehe, you guys have wrapped up your sisters." ”

The little girl's face turned red, she bit her red lower lip, threw a watery wink, and was about to speak, when Sister-in-law Song patted her on the head and scolded in a low voice: "You sisters go to the back and keep an eye on the outside." ”

The little girl grinned, coquettish, Liu Han sighed in her heart, this little girl is only thirteen or fourteen years old, she actually hooked like this, she will be older in the future, and she doesn't know how much trouble she will cause, and her mind suddenly moved.

"Adult, little girl..."Sister-in-law Song was a little uneasy, Niu Fu shook her head slightly, as soon as Sister-in-law Song opened her mouth, he knew what she was going to say, this sister-in-law Song's family of three begged for a living on the water, and she was not a chaste woman for a long time, not to mention that the sisters were sleeping together, I am afraid that the mother and daughter have had a happy life, how did she suddenly pay attention to it at this time, is there something wrong with her brain.

"You don't really think I'm here to have fun. Liu Hanqi said, Niu Fu sneered, and Sister-in-law Song also smiled awkwardly.

Liu Han sat down at the table, picked up a cup and poured tea, and then said to the two of them: "You guys talk about it first, the results of these days." ”

"No result. Niu Fu sighed, very disappointed: "My lord, in the past few days, Sister-in-law Song and I have traveled to all the big islands in the east of Hudong, and I have been to every island, and there are no manors and characters similar to the description of adults. ”

Liu Han looked at the clothes on his body, this clothing is the clothing of a local merchant, there is a kind of cargo ship in Changchun Lake all the year round, this kind of cargo ship is like a merchant who walks through the village and alleys on land, it is inconvenient to live on the island, and he has to board the ship to buy something.

Niu Fu disguised himself as a merchant, pretended to be a husband and wife with Song's sister-in-law, walked in Hudong for three or four days, and ran all over the five big islands in Hudong, these five big islands are larger than several big islands in Huxi, and there are more people living in them, but they are not as prosperous as Huxi, and the islanders are mainly fishing.

"In three days, you're done?" Liu Han asked in disbelief, Li Yan traveled all over several big islands in Huxi, and it took six or seven days, and the two of them walked in three days, Liu Han was very suspicious, whether they were just looking at the flowers, and they didn't seriously investigate at all.

"Three days is enough. Niu Fu nodded solemnly: "There are not many people on the islands in the east of the lake, and there are no mountains on the islands, and even if there are, they are just small hills. ”

"In other words, there are some islands that you just circled?" Liu Han's tone was a little stern.

Niu Fu was stunned and didn't dare to answer, so Sister-in-law Song hurriedly said: "Actually, there are three islands that I have been to before, and I have stayed there for a few nights, so I know a little bit about the situation on the islands. ”

Liu Han sighed, stared at the two of them, made their hearts flutter, snorted softly, and said coldly: "This is the first time you have worked under me, this time I will forgive you, if there is a next time, I will not spare you." ”

Niu Fu and Sister-in-law Song's faces turned pale, and Liu Han said again: "You continue to check, hum, I'll tell you the truth, the palace has checked the hundred workshops as early as seven or eight years ago, if it is so easy to find out, it has already been found, you have to remember that the master of the hundred workshops, mental perseverance, ordinary material enjoyment, is not what he pursues at all, so let's do it, Niu Fu, you go back first, Sister-in-law Song, change the boat tomorrow, let's go to Hudong again, start with Dongshan Island." ”

Niu Fu got up and agreed, but Sister-in-law Song hesitated: "My lord, it's not that my subordinates don't want to go, it's just that my subordinates just went, and the general merchants have to wait for ten days and a half every other day, besides, now is not the time to buy Huzhu, this time to go, if the hundred workshops are not here, it's okay, if it's there, it's easy to arouse the suspicion of others." ”

Liu Han couldn't help but be silent when he heard this, although he was six or seven percent sure that the head coach would not be on the island, but if the head coach was on the island, it would be really troublesome, this was the only person he was afraid of.

No, and the owner who has never met!!
