It was just dawn, and Shang Hong got up early all morning.

Shang Hong walked out of the tent and said to the personal soldiers guarding outside the door: "Let them cook, eat breakfast, and leave breakfast."

The personal soldier smiled and said, "General, isn't it a little too early? Many people have not gotten up yet!"

Shang Hong said: "The situation in the Western Regions is not very stable, so it is better for us to arrive in Xizhou as soon as possible."

"I know, general."

The personal soldiers bowed their hands and turned around and left.

At this time, a middle-aged man in his forties walked out of a tent next to him. He saw Shang Hong standing outside, so he smiled and said hello: "General Shang, you got up so early."

Shang Hong looked over and said with a smile: "Mr. Wu got up very early!"

Zhao Xun wanted to take Xizhou in his own hands, so the military officers would naturally have to arrange it.

This middle-aged man is named Wu Shan. He has always been in the Secretariat of the Secretariat. He is not of high rank and is only a sixth rank. However, he has a good knowledge, especially in mathematics, and has a high attainment, so he was arranged by Zhao Zhi to be Zhao Xun's math teacher. In this way, Wu Shan is also an old man in the Prince's Mansion, and Zhao Xun respects him quite well.

This time, when he came to Xizhou to be the governor, Wu Shanfu recommended himself. He had been in a free position for almost twenty years, so he obviously couldn't sit still.

Not everyone can tolerate poverty and study honestly.

Wu Shan said: "What are General Shang's plans for the future?"

"I haven't thought about this. Anyway, there will definitely be no problem doing it according to the emperor's will."

Shang Hong glanced at Wu Shan, and I was not familiar with you and I, what are my thoughts? Can you tell you?

Wu Shan smiled and said, "Lin Xusheng has done a good job in Xizhou in the past two years. He is a talent. I plan to keep him, so I can be considered a number of helpers."

"I admire Mr. Wu's love for talents."

Shang Hong echoed casually, but deep down, he was still quite disdainful of Wu Shan. You said you had squeezed out other people's positions. Is it interesting to say these words now? This is what literati is like, on the surface, but on the secret, another one, extremely hypocritical.

The two obviously had no common topics. After a few simple conversations, Shang Hong left on the pretext.

An hour later, after breakfast, Shang Hong and others got off again.

Shang Hong rode on the horse and kept urging the army to speed up. He hoped that within two days, he could arrive at Xizhou, where Li Xun hid millions of money and food. If he could hold them for a few days before Lei Wanhai and others left, he might be able to intercept some of them for military funds, and he would make a fortune.

Thinking of this, a smile rose on Shang Hong's face. Unfortunately, just as he was calming in his beautiful wish, several dense arrows shot up from the woods on both sides. Dozens of Yulin Guard soldiers screamed and fell to the ground. Then, a shocking shout of killing sounds sounded, and more than a thousand people rushed out from both sides and launched a fierce attack on Shang Hong's team.

"Don't panic, stabilize the formation and start fighting back."

Although Shang Hong's ability is average, he still has the most basic command ability. In addition, this Yulin Guard is very elite, so under his command, he quickly calmed down from the chaos, quickly formed a formation, and then launched a counterattack.

"General Shang, what should we do? Should we break through?"

Wu Shan had never seen such a scene. His face was so scared that he ran to Shang Hong and said stutteringly.

Shang Hong comforted him: "Mr. Wu, don't be nervous. Although this group of bandits is quite large, it is just a mob and does not pose much threat to us."

Sure enough, thousands of bandits rushed for a while, but they could not shake the formation of the Yulin Guard. Then, in the counterattack of the Yulin Guard, they began to retreat step by step, and eventually turned into a defeat and fled in scattered areas.

More than a hundred Yulin Guards chased and killed them.

When the bandits were repelled, Wu Shan breathed a sigh of relief and said loudly: "I didn't expect that the situation in the Western Regions was so corrupt that it would dare to attack the official army in broad daylight. After I took office, I will use the most severe means to wipe out all the bandits in Xizhou."

Shang Hong glanced at Wu Shan with a slanted glance, his eyes full of disdain. He was still so embarrassed just now, but now he has the attitude to say such things. Besides, I am the governor of Xizhou, you are the governor, and you still want to give orders to me? You are simply ignorant.

At this time, an officer returned on a horse, with a happy face, bowed to Shang Hong and said, "Governor, the bandits carry a lot of money with them. Maybe they have just snatched them from another place. Will they send additional personnel to leave all these things?"

Is there such a good thing?

Hearing this, Shang Hong laughed: "I just came to the Western Regions and encountered such good things. God is really blessing me!"

Immediately, Shang Hong immediately ordered to send five hundred additional soldiers to snatch all the property. As for the bandits, they should not chase them, and there is no need to spend that effort.

This time, Shang Hong took office, and the court only gave him a thousand Yulin Guard soldiers, without any money and food, and everything depends on himself. Shang Hong was worried about this matter. Unexpectedly, how could he be unhappy if he encountered such a good thing now?

"The other party has taken the bait."

Niu Jin found Hou Quan and said happily. There were only more than 300 people left by Shang Hong, and the other party was indeed trapped.

"beat."

Hou Quan decisively issued an order, then drew out his weapon and rushed out first.

The shaking shouts of killing sounded again.

Shang Hong's face changed suddenly at a glance. He never expected that there was a second wave of bandits ambushing in the woods on both sides. And judging from the number and quality of the people, it was much stronger than the previous group.

"Guard, guard!"

Shang Hong shouted anxiously and ordered the soldiers to assemble as quickly as possible.

Two thousand vs. three hundred, Hou Quan had the advantage, and he led the way, which greatly boosted everyone's morale. So one impact was to directly destroy Shang Hong's formation. Needless to say, the situation was to be one-sided.

Shang Hong found something wrong and wanted to escape, but he had been stared by Ouyang Li, Niu Jin and others, and had no chance to escape at all. In the end, he had to be captured alive.

"I am the governor of Xizhou. If you hand me over to the government, you can get a lot of money."

After Shang Hong was captured alive, he immediately revealed his identity. Since the other party was a bandit, he was naturally to seek wealth.

Ouyang Li sneered: "You have not taken office yet, and you dare to call yourself the governor of Xizhou?"

Shang Hong was slightly stunned and asked subconsciously: "What do you want?"

Ouyangli said to Niu Jin: "This credit is given to you."

Niu Jin nodded gratefully, immediately grabbed Shang Hong's head, and smiled viciously, "I want your life."
