It's almost the end of the New Year. After passing Jinyang, the New Year atmosphere suddenly became a lot stronger. Perhaps because it is located in the Central Plains, the lives of the people must be better than those outside Jinyang. It's just that
Little by little, there were still a lot of beggars on the streets, and people selling their children and girls could be seen everywhere. Before they reached Shangdang, the dry food they brought had almost been gone, and for the rest of the way, they could only pretend they hadn't been seen.
Snowflakes were falling, and the air suddenly became cold. Wang Qiang made it clear that the order given by the boss was to arrive in Luoyang before the end of the year, and there were only a few days before the end of the year. So they had no choice but to brave the snow.
A few people bought some thick clothes and rushed to Luoyang without stopping. The water in the Yellow River had frozen, and the thick ice could carry a carriage. This saved the money of hiring a boat.
Three days before the end of the year, they arrived at Hulao Pass. As the gateway to the east of Luoyang, Hulao Pass was named after King Mu of Zhou imprisoned a tiger here. The terrain of Hulao Pass is dangerous, with Songyue Mountain in the south, the Yellow River in the north, and intertwined mountains.
, it is a natural danger. With one man in charge of the pass and ten thousand men unable to break it, it has become a battleground for military strategists of all ages. Long Fei didn't care about this. When he heard the name of Hulao Pass, it immediately reminded him of the battle between the three heroes of Hulao Pass and Lu Bu.
Things are coming. I came at a good time and could catch up with this great show. I really want to see what Liu Guanzhang looks like now.
Entering Hulao Pass, the first thing you see is the army. There are troops everywhere! Those with guns, those with knives, those carrying arrows, those riding horses, and those riding in cars, all kinds of people. When they talk, they are actually
The long-lost hometown dialect and the pure northwest dialect made Long Fei feel more familiar. No need to guess, these people were sent by Dong Zhuo to defend Hulao Pass.
Long Fei showed off his hometown dialect and spent generously, and soon became involved with the group. After several inquiries, he found out that the person stationed at Hulao Pass was actually Zhang Ji, one of Dong Zhuo's four famous generals. Said Zhang
Jina needs to talk about it carefully. Others may not know it, but Long Fei knows it best. There are two people under Zhang Ji who will be little-known heroes in the Three Kingdoms in the future. One is Zhang Ji's nephew Zhang Xiu, and a spear is everywhere, stationed in the isolated city.
In Wancheng, even Cao Cao and Liu Biao didn't dare to boo. The other one was even more famous, known as Jia Xu, the poisonous scholar, who was as famous as Guo Jia and Zhuge Liang.
A large group of people were drinking happily in a wine shop. Suddenly there was a chaos on the street. From a distance, dozens of war horses were seen galloping from the direction of the city gate. The people and soldiers on the street evaded one after another and moved a little slower.
He was either whipped or knocked several dozen meters away, and then trampled over by horse hooves. The noise in the wine shop suddenly became much quieter, and everyone quietly watched the dozen horses galloping towards them.
Those horses are all good horses at first glance, especially the one in the front, which is red all over and has a ring of white hair on its four hooves. It is eight feet tall, two feet long, has a thin waist, long legs, and a round belly. When it runs, it takes a leisurely pace, and immediately
The knight did not move at all. The guy was young, with a golden helmet and armor, a sword hanging from his waist, and a fiery red cloak flying in the wind. He was particularly impressive.
"Ah..., mother..., mother..." A four or five-year-old child was frightened by the sudden panic and didn't know what to do. He stood in the middle of the street, crying and calling for his mother.
Zhang Xiu laughed loudly: "Brothers, whoever can knock that child out will be rewarded with a jar of good wine!" The people behind him immediately became energetic and added a few more whips, and the speed of the horses suddenly increased a lot.
Seeing a horse heading towards the child, a woman outside the crowd cried and collapsed on the ground, begging to let her child go.
Long Fei smoothly picked up a small wine glass on the table and threw it out with his wrist. The galloping horse was suddenly hit on the head by something. The horse was frightened, raised its front hooves, and stood up.
The knight on the horse didn't pay attention. He was thrown off and fell heavily to the ground. The galloping horses behind him didn't have time to stop. Several screams were heard. The guy had been trampled once and was lying there.
at every turn.
Just when Long Fei threw the wine glass, Zhao Yun rushed out of the wine shop. He took the frightened child out from under the horse's hooves and handed it to the woman who was about to faint.
"You're causing trouble again. Didn't you agree to stay out of other people's business?" Wang Qiang said angrily.
Long Fei smiled: "I'm used to it, so I'll pay attention next time! Please supervise me, madam!"
Zhang Xiu pulled the reins of the horse, and the red horse stopped steadily. A dozen personal guards had surrounded Zhao Yun in the center. Turning around and taking a look at the guy lying motionless on the ground, Zhang Xiu said angrily: "You are
Who? So bold, you dare to hit my people! Do you know where this place is? Who am I?"
Zhao Yun snorted coldly: "This is Hulao Pass. My surname is Zhao, Mingyun, and Zilong. No matter who you are, if you hit someone with your horse, I have to take care of it!"
"Okay...!" Long Fei shouted, and the people around him also responded.
Zhang Xiu glanced around, and everyone was so frightened that they quickly lowered their heads and suppressed their voices. They turned their heads and looked at Zhao Yun again: "Zhao Yun? Humph! If you hurt my people, you will die. Brothers, take it down for me!"
Several cavalrymen swarmed up, and two of them dismounted and came to Zhao Yun's side.
Suddenly someone in the wine shop said loudly: "Dong Zhuo's soldiers are so domineering here. No wonder they are despised by the people. This alone is a sign of defeat!" This statement frightened everyone inside and outside the wine shop. This is Hulao Pass and Luoyang.
Who is the biggest in Luoyang? Not the emperor but Dong Zhuo! There can only be one reason to explain such insults to Dong Zhuo in Dong Zhuo's territory in front of Dong Zhuo's subordinates, he is seeking death!
Everyone looked at Long Fei. Several Xiliang soldiers who had been drinking with him hurriedly stood up and retreated far away. Zhang Xiu said angrily: "Where did you come from, a madman who insulted the Grand Master and didn't even give me a drink?"
The corpse will be broken into thousands of pieces!"
Several more cavalrymen dismounted and entered the wine shop. There was only a sound of ping-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong inside, and the few cavalrymen who went in came out again with bruises and swollen faces. Zhao Yun, who was on the street, suddenly took action and knocked down the two people surrounding him easily.
He ducked away from Zhang Xiu's sword and entered the wine shop.
Zhang Xiu looked at several of his men, who were usually so angry, and said angrily: "Trash, they are all a bunch of trash!" Then he shouted to the Xiliang soldiers who were watching the excitement: "Come in together, do it!
!Uncle raised you white-eyed wolves in vain!"
"Hahaha..." Long Fei smiled and led everyone out of the wine shop. He looked Zhang Xiu up and down. The young man looked good. He was a few years older than Zhao Yun. His skin was not as good as Zhao Yun's. His bronze color was healthier and his appearance was also good.
Yes, he has thick eyebrows, big eyes, a straight nose, a straight mouth, and a red horse and red cape that makes him look very majestic.
Zhang Xiu also looked at Long Fei, wearing coarse cloth clothes and thin-soled shoes. He was very tall and his whole body was very well-proportioned. One look at his eyes was unforgettable, because nothing could be seen from Long Fei's eyes. Zhang Xiu
Holding the sword: "Who are you? Are you with him?"
"What do you think?"
Seeing the arrogance of Long Fei and others, Zhang Xiu became even more angry: "Do it! Come on, catch the leader, I will reward you with a thousand coins!"
The money offensive really worked. Some Xiliang soldiers were moved and slowly surrounded Longfei. Someone took the lead and many others soon followed. Zhao Yun, Talun, and Wang Qiang's siblings immediately surrounded the city to guard against the surrounding Xiliang.
Liang Bing and Long Fei looked indifferent, but walked towards Zhang Xiu: "Why bother? It's not cost-effective for just a few of us to wage such a big battle. You don't need to do anything, I will go with you myself!"
Long Fei stretched out his hands, and the Xiliang soldiers looked up at Zhang Xiu on the horse. Zhang Xiu snorted coldly: "I thought he would be a man who would rather die than surrender, but he turned out to be a softie. I tied him up and took him back to my house to deal with him properly.
!”
"Stop!" shouted angrily. The Xiliang soldiers stopped in a hurry. A middle-aged general with a golden helmet sat majestically on a horse on the periphery of the crowd, looking at the group of Xiliang soldiers with an angry face. Everyone stepped aside one after another.
On the way, the general rode inside. Zhang Xiu turned over and dismounted and saluted: "Uncle, why are you here?"
"If I don't come, you're going to turn things upside down, right?" Zhang Ji glared at Zhang Xiu.
"They insulted the Grand Master, I want to take them back and hand them over to my uncle..." Zhang Xiu brought the topic to this matter.
Long Fei looked at the uncle and nephew and said to Zhang Ji: "I say General Zhang, you should take good care of your nephew. If you let your horse hurt people on the street, all the people and soldiers can clearly see it!
Right?"
"Yes! Yes! Almost killed someone!" Someone in the crowd responded, and the cooperation was perfect.
Zhang Xiu glared at those people: "Don't shout! Shut up, everyone!"
Zhang Ji whipped down his whip and hit Zhang Xiu on the back with a crack. Those who shouted immediately lost their voices: "You unfilial thing, I have told you so many times, but you just don't listen. Come on."
Tie me up, I'll take care of you when I go back!" Several soldiers came up immediately and tied up Zhang Xiu without any explanation. Zhang Ji glanced at Long Fei, turned his horse's head and walked towards the outside of the crowd.
As soon as Zhang Ji left, the Xiliang soldiers lost their interest in drinking, let alone drinking with this man who had scolded Dong Zhuo, and they all dispersed. Long Fei suddenly became the hero in the hearts of the people who dared to fight against the powerful. The shopkeeper of the wine shop
The waiter greeted her with a smile and kept serving wine and food. The woman with the child hurriedly knelt down to thank her benefactor for saving her life. Zhao Yun quickly helped her up, said some kind words and sent her away.
Although the incident was not big, it was still a good thing, and several people were happy. As they were getting excited about drinking, a man in a gray cloth gown, dressed as a scribe, held a wine glass in his hand, and said with a smile: "Can I invite some of the strong men to have a drink?
"
Long Fei looked up and saw that this man was about thirty years old. He had a small beard on his chin. His eyes were not big but his eyes were restrained. His gown was a little shabby but clean. "Sir, please sit down!"
The two of them drank three large glasses of wine in a row. Long Fei then said: "Long Fei, these are all my friends. May I ask who sir..."
"The surname Long comes from the Yulong family. Looking out of Tianshui, we are still from the same hometown!" The man shook his head slightly: "As far as I know, there are not many people in the world named Long. The most famous one is Long, the general of Chu.
Moreover, there are few people who will be famous after that!"
Long Fei said: "My father's surname is Long and my surname is Long. It has nothing to do with that dragon. I am who I am!"
"Hahaha..." The man laughed a few times, raised his neck and drank the wine in the glass: "Jia Xu admires the heroic spirit of a strong man. If you can trust me, follow me to see General Zhang Ji. I will show you the talent of a strong man."
