Chapter 044 Han Hao
Xiahou Dun led several soldiers through the woods. He felt a little tired from running back and forth for two hundred miles a day. It was already dark, so Xiahou Dun decided to find a place nearby to take a short rest.
The sun completely set. Xiahou Dun found a high slope with the woods behind him. Several people got off their horses.
In this way, people solved the problem of food and clothing.
"Master Fu, do we have to rush back today?" a soldier asked.
"I'm a little worried about that. Let's go back after a while." Xiahou Dun said.
The birds started in fright, and several black shadows flashed across the woods. Xiahoudun felt that someone was staring at them in the darkness.
"Everyone get on the horse!" Xiahou Dun shouted, and the soldiers stopped talking and laughing. They picked up their weapons and immediately jumped on the horse's back.
An arrow was shot from the woods, and the arrow passed by Xiahou Dun. Xiahou Dun did not dare to fight, so he immediately ordered several people to leave here quickly.
The sound of horse hooves came one after another, and several black figures looked at Xiahou Dun and showed strange smiles after he left.
Xiahou Dun suddenly fell off his horse, and several of his soldiers fell to the ground. Thirty or forty bandits ran out of the woods on both sides of the road. Before Xiahou Dun could react, he was captured by these bandits.
None of the soldiers were spared.
"Boss, there's a big deal here." A thin man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks shouted towards the main hall of the village. Behind him were the captured Xiahou Dun and several soldiers.
"Ma San, what the hell are you arguing about?" A shirtless man cursed and walked out of the hall, holding a wine jar in his hand and his face flushed.
"Boss, take a look, this meat ticket is a big deal." Ma San said with a flattering smile.
"Hey, he looks like an official." The boss of the village looked at Xiahou Dun drunkenly and said, "What's your name? Whose subordinates are you?"
Xiahou Dun glared coldly and did not respond. The soldier beside him interjected: "This boss, we are all nearby garrison troops. This is my son Hou Dun. I wonder how the boss's business is done?"
p>
This soldier's name is Yan Biao. He has been following Xiahou Dun for many years. Yan Biao is astute and has won Xiahou Dun's trust. His son Yan Azhong is Xiahou Dun's personal soldier.
Xiahou Dun never doubted Yan Biao's loyalty. When he saw Yan Biao acting like this, he knew that Yan Biao had thought of a way to escape.
"You're a smart kid. I, Chen Huzi, like to do business with people like you." Chen Huzi laughed and looked up and down at Xiahoudun who was tied into a rice dumpling. "You're still a young master? Why did you find yourself unhappy and went to be a soldier?
?"
Xiahou Dun still ignored Chen Huzi's insult. Chen Huzi didn't feel annoyed when he saw Xiahou Dun. He asked Ma San to untie the rope from Yan Biao's body.
"I will let you go back now. You will come to the stronghold with five hundred gold in two days to redeem someone. If you delay for one more day, I will castrate this boy and send him to the young emperor to be a eunuch." Chen Huzi shook his head.
He said to Yan Biao.
Yan Biao was about to speak, but Chen Huzi continued: "Don't say you don't have so much money. A young man's family has more than that. I will entertain him well with wine and meat."
Yan Biao could only nod in agreement. Before he left, he looked at Xiahou Dun, who nodded gently.
"Boss, what if this kid brings someone to attack us?" Yan Biao disappeared from the night, and Ma San asked worriedly.
"I'm afraid, these people must be Cao Cao's men. Now Cao Cao can hardly defend his own territory. Soldiers like him are sent to die on the city wall." Chen Huzi smiled slyly, feeling a little proud.
He looked at Xiahou Dun and said, "There are only a few people in their group. This guy named Hou is probably a deserter. How could this kid's father not come to redeem the meat ticket?"
"Boss is really a man from heaven!" Ma San said with a complimentary smile.
"Don't starve Mr. Hou. I'll send him some food later. We Jichuan thieves also have to show some loyalty." Chen Huzi laughed, he made a lot of money this time.
Xiahou Dun's horses had their legs cut off by the bandits' snagging ropes. Yan Biao wrote down the way up the mountain and headed northeast...
The sun rises and a new day arrives.
"Captain, why haven't you come back yet? Is there any accident?" A military attache asked Han Hao. Han Hao looked anxious. According to Xiahou Dun's instructions before leaving, he should have sent someone to escort him by now.
This batch of luggage is heavy.
"The entire army will continue to be on alert and we will wait until Fu Jun returns." After thinking about it for a moment, Han Hao decided to wait until Xiahou Dun returned before making arrangements.
"Report! There is urgent military service!" A soldier walked into the camp. Behind him was Yan Biao, who had been running around all night. Yan Biao was exhausted and looked haggard. After seeing Yan Biao, Han Hao hurriedly ordered people to prepare meals.
"Captain, please step aside first. I have urgent military matters to report to you." Yan Biao said with difficulty.
Han Hao handed Yan Biao a bowl of water, and Yan Biao drank it in one gulp. He lowered his voice and told Han Hao the whole process of Xiahou Dun being captured. Han Hao knew that if this matter was known to the military, it would cause riots.<
/p>
This batch of baggage was extremely important. Not only did he have to find a way to ensure the safety of the baggage, he also had to find a way to rescue Xiahou Dun.
"Captain, those bandits only gave them two days. It's too late to go to Fan County now. There are Lu Bu's troops around Fan County. It's absolutely impossible to mobilize troops from Fan County at this moment." Yan Biao had a strategic vision.
, Han Hao also knew that he could only rely on himself in this matter. After thinking for a while, he decided to bring two hundred people to rescue Xiahou Dun personally.
At night, Han Hao secretly left the camp with 200 elite soldiers. Under the leadership of Yan Biao, everyone quickly arrived near the stronghold.
"Captain, no hidden whistle was found!"
"Explore again!"
After several inspections, Han Hao confirmed that there were no hidden sentries around the cottage. He led two hundred elite soldiers and slowly walked towards the cottage. There was a cliff behind the cottage. Han Hao passed through the dense forest and went around to the reverse slope on the left side of the cottage.
"Lao Ba, come and have two more bowls!"
"No, no, I have to go stand guard!"
"Stand on guard! You just want to escape drinking!"
There was a faint noise in the village, and Han Hao was holding back his anger. Now was the critical moment of the war, and these bandits had already delayed a lot of time in kidnapping Xiahou Dun.
Han Hao took the lead to reach the high point of the reverse slope and killed the bandit who was releasing water with one knife. Several soldiers also killed the bandit who was drunk on the ground.
"Who is it?" Ma San wanted to come out to solve his physical problem. After discovering Han Hao and the others, he ran towards the village as fast as he could. His shouts also attracted the attention of the bandits.
"Damn! There really are some people who are not afraid of death! How dare you come to the village to grab meat tickets!" Chen Huzi shouted angrily when he saw Yan Biao, and he slashed at Han Hao's head with a long knife.
Han Hao cut off Chen Huzi's left arm with a knife on one side of his body. He kicked Chen Huzi on the chest, and Chen Huzi fell to the ground in pain.
The elite soldiers brought by Han Hao are not kind people. They have been on the battlefield for a long time and can easily deal with the bandits. Moreover, most of the bandits are drunk and have no power to resist.
Within a quarter of an hour, most of these bandits were killed, and some smart bandits escaped quickly under the cover of night.
"Tell me! Where are the meat tickets you kidnapped?" Yan Biao asked Chen Huzi's neck fiercely.
"Back Mountain... there is a cell specially used for meat tickets..." Chen Huzi's drunkenness dissipated at this moment. He never dreamed that the person he tied up casually would cause such a big trouble for him. Now he can only beg.
These soldiers can spare his life.
Hearing this, Han Hao quickly led people towards the cell. Han Hao kicked open the door of the cell. There were thirty or forty bandits standing in the spacious cell. Ma Sanzheng held a short blade on Xiahou Dun's neck.
"Don't come here! If you take one more step forward, I will kill him!" Ma San shouted loudly on purpose to cover up his inner panic.
"You bandits actually dare to kidnap the prince as a meat ticket. You are simply ruining your own livelihood! I am on a mission to defeat the traitors. How can I let you do whatever you want just because of one person's life?" Han Hao's eyes were full of murderous intent.
, Ma San originally wanted to escape far away in exchange for Xiahou Dun, but when he heard Han Hao's words, he was trembling with fear.
"Master Fu, the law of the country is like this, Yuan Si has no choice but to feel sorry for you." Han Hao chopped down the bandit closest to him with a knife. All the bandits were dumbfounded when they saw that Han Hao didn't care about Xiahou Dun's life or death. "Don't care about the life or death of the meat ticket.
Kill all these thieves and bandits!"
The soldiers who were hesitant at first couldn't care less when they saw Han Hao rushing towards the bandits without stopping. They all picked up their weapons and greeted the bandits.
Han Hao quickly arrived in front of Ma San. Xiahou Dun was calm on the surface, but panicked in his heart. This Han Yuan Si was really gambling with my life!
How could Ma San dare to threaten Xiahou Dun at this time? He had long been frightened to death by Han Hao. Han Hao grabbed Xiahou Dun with his left hand and stabbed Ma San on the shoulder with his right hand.
Ma San was stabbed by Han Hao. He huddled in the corner and didn't dare to say anything. I was also stabbed. Meupiao has been rescued by them. He shouldn't kill me, right?
While Ma San was still delusional, Han Hao cut off Ma San's neck and blood burst out. He looked at Han Hao in front of him with wide eyes and recalled his life.
Ma San, from Qiao County, is a lazy and lazy man who plays a game of gambling. He kills an old man from his hometown and steals property. He escapes the blame under the protection of his brother-in-law. He is burdened by gambling debts. He attempts to ask for money from his sister but fails, accidentally kills his sister during a quarrel, and then flees to another country to start a bandit business...
…
Ma San died, and the other bandits also died under the sword.
"Master Fu, the situation was critical just now, so I took this step. I hope Master Fu..." Han Hao untied the rope from Xiahou Dun and said to Xiahou Dun respectfully.
"It doesn't matter, Yuan Si is brave. Thanks to Yuan Si, I can be saved." Xiahou Dun pretended to be calm and said to Han Hao.
