The white ground dyed by snowflakes conceals not only flowers, birds, fish and insects, but also people's inner thoughts. Even the footprints of people walking have never been left, unless they were imprinted on the surface just now.

.

Just like now, messy footprints appeared in sight, arriving near Wujun, Yangzhou.

"Inform the three generals that a large number of pedestrians appeared outside the city gate. They claimed to be fleeing."

When the soldiers guarding the city came to report, Ling Cao, Jiang Qin, and Zhou Tai were hiding in the house warming themselves by the fire.

"Refugees? Did they say where they came from?"

"Yes, they said they came from Kuaiji County"

Listening to where they came from, the three of them became interested. Ling Cao stood up first and lectured to the two people next to him.

"Let's go and see"

"good"

When the three of them came to the top of the city tower, they saw that the door was already full of people. Their faces were dirty and their hair was messy. Many of them were holding wooden sticks and their expressions were not good. Many people's clothes were in tatters.

, they can indeed be called refugees. When they saw Zhou Tai and the others dressed like generals, someone immediately shouted

"Generals, please open the door and let us in. We are really here to escape."

As soon as this person finished speaking, everyone around him echoed his words, and for a while it was as noisy as a vegetable market. Unable to stand the disturbing sound, Ling Cao from the top of the tower shouted to the people below.

"Everyone, fellow villagers, don't make any noise, don't make any noise, I can only help you if you explain the reason!"

Ling Cao's words had an effect, and the noisy crowd soon became quiet.

"Everyone, can you tell me why you came out of Kuaiji and became refugees?"

As soon as Ling Cao finished asking, a woman stood up and explained.

"General, listen to me, we were all living well in Kuaiji. Later, Chen Wen came to Kuaiji. As the governor of Yangzhou, he not only did not care about our lives, but instead went to the fish and meat village to rob our family property and farmland. We

We also tried to resist, but his soldiers were too strong and we couldn't defeat them at all. We were so helpless that we chose to leave our hometown and leave Kuaiji. We also wanted to go to Danyang, but we heard that Chen Wen still had contacts there.

, we are afraid of suffering again, that’s why we come here, and please general, please do good, be kind, and save us!"

After saying that, she knelt down and started kowtowing to the people upstairs. The people next to her also followed the same pattern. Now, only the three of them couldn't do it.

"What to do? Let them in?"

Jiang Qin asked the two people next to him. Ling Cao thought for a moment, then raised his hand and wanted someone to open the door, but Zhou Tai stopped him.

"Wait a minute, I always feel that things will not be that simple. Besides, they came under Chen Wen. We should be more careful."

"What you said makes sense, but we can't just leave them outside without saving them. It's freezing cold here. Letting them stay outside is like letting them die."

Ling Cao was obviously a little anxious now, so much so that he spoke faster than before. Looking at his appearance, Zhou Tai really couldn't refute. After all, he had no evidence to prove his feelings. After thinking about it,

, in the end, he gave up his suspicions and told the people around him, "Open the city gate and let them in."

Bar"

Ma Chao changed the topic and pushed Pang De out. According to the past, if he was underestimated, Li Jue would definitely be angry, but now he is obviously familiar with Ma Chao and Pang De, and there is no sign of an attack. On the contrary

He said with a playful smile

"Then you two should be prepared to become my defeated generals! Hahahahahahaha"

The laughter soared into the sky, free and easy, causing Ma Chao and Pang De to laugh too...

"Okay, let's go back first. Everyone, we will come back next year when the snow melts and the flowers bloom in spring."

"Thank you two generals for your generous help. I look forward to seeing you again next year."

Unlike Li Jue, Jia Xu bowed to the two of them gracefully.

Then, Ma Chao turned around and rode up to Rishafei. With Pang De's signal, the cavalrymen began to run forward.

"Lu Bu, I will challenge you again when we meet next time. This time, I will definitely beat you!"

Ma Chao glanced at Lu Bu with sharp eyes, then reined in his horse and turned around, chasing in the direction of the large army. Lu Bu, who was challenged, looked at his back and murmured to himself:

"After all, he is still a child. He is too energetic. It will take a long time to temper before he can become a mature person..."

As a result, this was heard by Li Jue next to him, and he said it in his ear as if joking.

"Oh? Isn't that the same as you? When we first met, you were as arrogant as him. No, you were even more arrogant than him. It was as if you didn't look down on all of us. But now

After these few battles, I think you can understand the fact that I am still very capable, uncle."

Li Jue's face was full of pride, but Lu Bu just glanced at him and turned away.

"You do have some strength, but you are only at the level of a three-legged cat. The gap between you and me will never be narrowed."

After listening to Lu Bu's words, Li Jue looked about to explode, but then he had a new idea and followed Lu Bu and said

"You have now admitted that I do have strength, right? That is a big improvement compared to before. It seems that the day when I surpass you in martial arts is getting closer and closer."

Li Jue put his head in his hands and felt very good about himself. Lu Bu didn't bother to talk to him anymore. Jia Xu, who was at the back, listened to the conversation between the two and showed an elegant smile. Then he followed him leisurely with steady steps.

Go up...

Let's say that after the defeat of Shuofang's battle, the Xianbei general who had been shot in the left hand by Lu Bu's arrow chose to lead his men to escape. He originally planned to go to Yunzhong via Wuyuan to report the news, but Zhang Liaoguo was already stationed in Wuyuan.

Si's headquarters learned that he wanted to pass by quietly at this time, but he was discovered by patrolling scouts. Guo Si guarded his home, and Zhang Liao led an army to pursue him. In the end, he beheaded thousands of cavalrymen, but it was a pity that

That guy didn't die, and he successfully crossed Wuyuan with the remaining soldiers, came to Yunzhong, and met his immediate boss.

After learning that Wuyuan had been captured, the Xianbei commander in Yunzhong divided his soldiers into three and sent a small number of his trusted followers to garrison Jiling and Wujin to defend the rear to prevent Yanmen and Dingxiang counties.

Someone made a sneak attack, and he led the remaining army to station in Xianyang, directly approaching Wuyuan County, and was ready to fight at any time. However, now that winter has arrived, the snow is very unfriendly to war horses, so the two sides did not directly

The start of the war is a desperate fight waiting for the beginning of next spring...
