Volume 5 Chapter 443: Plan for a Rainy Day

Liu Xiu raised his head and looked in the air, but saw nothing. He thought for a while and called out, "Ling Ming, did you hear something just now?"

Pang De was concentrating on controlling his pedal. The mountain road here was narrow and dangerous, so he had to deal with it carefully. When he heard Liu Xiu's question, he quickly shouted: "Sir, what did you hear?"

"I seemed to hear the screams of the swallows and eagles just now." Liu Xiu looked into the air again. The autumn sky was blue and blue, not even a cloud, so there was no swallows and eagles. He shook his head helplessly, thinking that he might have been away from Liangzhou for too long and was locked in the courtyard of Luoyang. He missed the life of Gao Renying flying in Liangzhou that day and the land was wide and horses running, and had hallucinations.

"Miss Blue, is anyone hunting with falcons here?"

Lan Lan shook her head: "No, there are dogs and leopards, but I have never seen a hawk who uses it. But when we go north and approach the Wuhuan people, it seems that there are hawks who use it."

"That's really strange." Liu Xiu laughed self-deprecatingly and no longer thought about it. Taihang Mountain runs through the north and south, with lush vegetation. It was still a habitat for many wild animals until later generations, and there were many large beasts. Hunting is normal. People in Shanxi, Hebei and Shanxi have trained hunting dogs to hunt in the mountains. The more powerful one is to train cheetahs. This kind of cheetah is actually a golden leopard. It is very common in Taihang Mountains and is not uncommon until the 21st century. Hunting in such places with thick shade, it is indeed better to use hunting dogs and cheetahs than to use hunting dogs and cheetahs.

Going east from Hukou Pass, less than thirty miles, traveling north across Zhuozhang River, enter Shimen Mountain, and traveling about a hundred miles more, you can cross the peak of Taihang Mountain and reach the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain. From then on, you will be Shexian. Shexian is already the boundary of Jizhou, but now the Yellow Turban is entrenched in Heishan, and Yuan Shao cannot control it at all.

Although Liu Xiu and others were all good at riding skills and their war horses were all good Liangzhou horses. The mountain road was very stable, but they could not run like the plain. They rushed for most of the day until the moon reached Dongshan. They had just crossed the turbid Zhang River and entered the area of ​​Shimen Mountain. Although Liu Xiu was anxious, it was too late and was afraid of danger, so he ordered a temporary rest.

Xu Qian rushed over with ten tiger soldiers. While he arranged for the tiger soldiers to camp in the local area, he pulled Liu Xiu aside. "General. I have a bad feeling."

Liu Xiu felt "What do you feel?"

"A feeling of being peeped in the dark." Xu Qian pondered: "And it was malicious."

"You suspect we were adorned?"

Xu Qian nodded. To this point, it was enough for him. Liu Xiu thought for a while: "Okay, you should be careful. It's not a bad thing to be careful."

"Here." Xu Qian responded and turned around. Liu Xiu stood by the roadside, looking at the quiet forest under the moonlight. After thinking for a while, Xu Qian's reminder reminded him of the sound of the falcon again, but he couldn't understand why there were falcons here. Who wanted to be unfavorable to him? Liangzhou people like to play falcons, but the only Liangzhou people who knew were the only kingdom in this area. As far as he knew, when the kingdom came to Jizhou to join Zhangjiao, he did not bring any falcons at all. According to Bian Zhang and Han Sui, the kingdom was a scholar and did not play with eagles at all.

Whose eagle was that? Wuhuan native? Liu Xiu suddenly remembered what Lan Lan said and quickly called Lan Lan over.

"Have you ever seen the Wuhuan people when you were fighting with Yuan Shao?" Liu Xiu thought for a while and added: "Or the Huns, Xianbei people, etc., especially the Falcons."

Lan Lan was a little confused. After thinking for a long time, she shook her head embarrassedly: "I haven't noticed it before. After the Zhenren was injured, the army was in chaos. Our minds were all on the life and death of the Zhenren, and we didn't notice whether Yuan Shao's subordinates had Wuhuan people. But..." Lan Lan suddenly remembered something: "Their cavalry seemed to be even more powerful."

Liu Xiu frowned. Did Yuan Shao have any deal with the Wuhuan people? The Wuhuan people brought falcons to them to scout the Yellow Turban Army and inquire about the news about the Yellow Turban Army? He also thought about whether it would be targeted, but he came from Luoyang very secretly. The possibility of Yuan Shao getting the news was too small. In comparison, Yuan Shao was more likely to use these falcons to deal with the Yellow Turban Army.

Of course, the possibility of those scouts discovering him is quite high. Although the other party may not know his identity, it is expected that the other party can guess his identity abnormally when he sees so many people and so many good war horses.

"What's wrong?" Lan Lan couldn't help but feel a little worried when she saw Liu Xiu's expression.

"It's nothing, we may have bumped into Yuan Shao's scout." Liu Xiu leaned against the stone wall and touched his chin.

Lan Lan's face changed. If Liu Xiu was telling the truth, the Yellow Turban Army would be too dangerous. Although the scouts could only inquire about the news and could not cause any major harm, once Yuan Shao knew about the base camp of the Yellow Turban Army and brought the main force to kill him, it would be entirely possible that he would suffer another heavy blow when Zhang Ming was injured and the Yellow Turban Army had no heads.

She hated these scouts very much, but it was impossible to find those scouts so big.

After cleaning up, the tiger soldiers fetched water and set up a fire. Pang De and Yan Xing were busy and took care of everything. Liu Xiu was very satisfied. Although Fengxue used to march with Liu Xiu, there were few such opportunities to get close to each other after getting married. Listening to the roar of tigers and leopards, listening to the clear sound of the flowing water in the mountain stream, Fengxue was a little excited. He chatted with Mrs. Lu and Lan Lan for a long time before yawning and leaning against Liu Xiu, saying, "Husband, it's so good."

"What's so good?" Liu Xiu cut a small piece of meat from the sheep that was roasted from the fire, and held it to Fengxue's mouth with his hands. Fengxue shook his head: "You eat it, I'm full just now."

"Dining a diet again?" Liu Xiu smiled, without any force, slowly chewing the meat and fiddling with the short knife in his hand.

Fengxue was embarrassed to bury her head in Liu Xiu's arms. She was lucky to recover her figure so quickly, and on the other hand, it was related to her diet. It would be difficult to eat a full meal on the grassland. How could she eat like General Wei's Mansion? If it weren't for Wang Chu and the Queen's weight gaining weight after giving birth, Fengxue wouldn't have thought of the problem of dieting.

"By the way, if this matter is handled, I plan to accompany you to the grassland."

"Really?" Feng Xue suddenly became energetic, raised her head, her blue eyes shining, and then she became dim: "You are so busy, how can you walk away?"

Liu Xiu smiled silently. Under the reflection of the fire, his smile seemed a little gloomy. He was not talking nonsense, he had his considerations. The emperor was seriously ill and had been a few days ago, but his defense was still there. This time, he was forced to re-activate him. Once the matter was handled, the emperor might have to hide him again. He had enough of this endless defense. He knew that as long as he was in front of the emperor for a day, the emperor would not really feel at ease with him. Instead of doing so, it would be better to run farther so that the emperor could not see him. There is Jia Xu in Bingzhou and Yan Zhong in Liangzhou. As long as these two geniuses are there, it is impossible for the emperor to intervene in Bingzhou and Liangzhou, unless he wants to force him.

In addition to making the emperor no longer wary of him, he also wanted to go to the grassland. After the emperor passed away, chaos in the world was a foregone conclusion. Bingzhou and Liangzhou were the weakest. He could not enter the battle all at once. He could only watch and watch Cao Cao blocking left and right and fighting with the Yuan brothers. At this time, if he was in Luoyang, he would have to help, but he ran far away, whether it was Cao Cao or the little emperor, if he wanted him to do his best, he would not find anyone.

War is about strength, and although his current strength cannot be said to be the weakest, he is definitely not strong enough. He has a large number of war horses in his hand, but lacks enough food and household registration. The war of attrition is a fatal quagmire for him. Once he steps in, he will definitely die. He can only attack with all his strength at the right time, quickly defeat his opponent with a destructive momentum and restore peace in the world. He needs to make some more money in war and lay a solid foundation, just like the Americans did during World War II.

Using the Yellow Turban to restrain them was also one of his preparatory methods. Using the weak and numerous Yellow Turbans to restrain the Yuan brothers and Cao Cao, preventing them from growing smoothly, so that they can gain time to accumulate strength. These three people are not good at it. Needless to say, Cao Cao is recognized as the number one soldier of the Three Kingdoms, and Yuan Shao is not bad either. Judging from the current battles he has fought in Jizhou, although this person is a little hesitant, his strength is strong. You may be able to take advantage of it for a while, but as long as he catches it once.

Even if you don't die, you have to peel off your skin. This is just like those martial artists who are flirting with a real heavyweight boxing champion. Although you can jump up and down, you can jump up and down as long as you are hit once, you may be ko, and all the previous victories will be zero. Even Yuan Shu, who is recognized as the most incompetent in history, should not be underestimated. He now accepts Yuan Wei's connections, and has a fierce man like Zhu Yan and Sun Jian under his command, and he is also involved with the powerful Guanzhong. People like Ma Teng can only be a personal guard under him. Why do you say that he must be vulnerable?

If you don't recognize this, maybe he is the one who is most vulnerable. Dong Zhuo in history is his role model. Dong Zhuo took over Liang Jingrui and entered Luoyang City with great power. He was abolished and established, avenged and accused the party members, and recruited famous scholars from all over the world. As a result, Yuan Shao joined forces in Shandong. Although Dong Zhuo won consecutive battles, he finally retreated back to Chang'an in shame. Why? It seems that he has no foundation in Shandong, and he can't even find a trustworthy person. All the civil and military officials in the court are there.

He cheated him, deceived him, and spoke for Yuan Shao from Shandong, and had to sharpen his knife behind his back and prepared to kill him with his own hands. In fact, there was a more important reason. He had no food to supply his soldiers, so he could only let them rob. He might be able to grab gold, silver and jewelry, but food was consumable, and relying solely on robbing was not a long-term solution. More importantly, his reputation became completely bad if he was robbed. Not only did the literati and officials opposed him, but even ordinary people opposed him. It was strange that they were undefeated.

Dong Zhuo had soldiers but no food, so he broke the man and opened the prelude to the troubled times, but became the target of everyone's scolding. In the end, someone lit the sky lantern. He didn't want to be such a pioneer, he wanted to be the final winner.

Only those who laugh to the end are the real winners. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my greatest motivation.)!!!
