Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 139 A Good Opportunity Appears
Ma Teng can be said to be the biggest winner on the surface after this meeting. Not only did he immediately get a month's food supply, but he also got two relationships with Niu Fu and Liu Yu at the same time.

"I will transfer troops to Xin'an County to join Xu Huang's army tonight, but I can't go in person because of the heavy responsibility of defending the city. Why don't I ask Chao'er to command the 5000 troops for me!"

This is the greatest sincerity that Ma Teng can make, and Liu Yu naturally accepts it after hearing it.

After separating from Ma Teng, Liu Yu went to Cai Yong's residence. He had to meet Cai Yong's apprentice quickly, so that he could make up for the loophole that Cai Yong left Luoyang City with a unified voice.

……

At the same time, many soldiers came from outside Niujia Village in the south gate of Luoyang. As soon as these people entered the village, they began to ask and search around.

Although these people did not find their target in the village, they did learn some very useful news from the villagers.

"Reporting to General Wei, people in the village said that a father and daughter stayed here last night, but they left in a carriage at midnight!"

Wei Xu regained his spirit immediately upon hearing this, "Where did you go?"

"At that time, it was dark and the villain didn't see it clearly, but the northeast direction is a small road, and it is not easy for a carriage to enter the mountain, so it should be time to go to the southeast road!" A commoner pointed tremblingly at the two small roads outside the village.

Because he was captured by Ma Chao yesterday, Wei Xu urgently needed to catch Cai Yan and his daughter to make up for it, so he immediately summoned his troops to pursue him.

Having learned a lot from a ditch, Wei Xu left the village and did not rush to chase southeast, but first looked at the small road in the northeast direction.

I saw that the small road was rough and difficult, and at the end it led to a small hill and then there was no road, but the main road in the southeast direction went directly to the official road.

If he was eager to escape from Luoyang City, he would definitely choose the southeast road, so Wei Xu led the main force straight to the southeast road, but out of caution, he still left a dozen soldiers to search on the hill.

Seeing that there were still soldiers going to the small hill in the northeast, the commoner showed a worried expression.

This commoner was actually Cui Di. When he found out that he hadn't led all of Lu Bu's pursuers to the Southeast Avenue, he worried that the dozen or so people would not find anything on the hill.

At this time, Zhou Fang, who stayed with him in the village, came over, "Brother Cui, don't worry, it's just that a dozen or so people will go to the mountain and nothing will happen. Besides, the carriage has already stopped on the southeast official road, and the chasing soldiers will definitely be fine if they find it." Doubting here!"

After hearing this, Cui Di felt that his words were reasonable, but just in case the two of them had a discussion, they had to let Liu Yu know what happened here as soon as possible.

……

In Yong'an Palace, Hu Zhen was reporting to Dong Zhuo about Lu Bu's mobilization of troops.

"You said that Lu Bu has mobilized more than 1000 people out of the city since yesterday? Have you ever found out what the picture is?"

"Reporting to Grand Master, the last general has sent someone to watch, but...haven't found out why he frequently dispatches troops!"

Since only a few hundred people were mobilized yesterday, Hu Zhen was a little slack at first. It wasn't until after dawn that he heard that Lu Bu had mobilized hundreds of people. He felt that something might be wrong, and rushed to report to Dong Zhuo.

"Wen You thinks what's the intention of Lu Bu's actions?" Tomorrow is the day when Guo Si's army goes out to fight. Dong Zhuo is discussing this matter with Li Ru, the chief counselor. Doubt and attention.

After hearing this, Li Ru replied cautiously: "General Fengxian also wanted to send troops to suppress the bandits before, but in the end the Grand Master handed over this important task to General Guo Si, will Lu Bu feel dissatisfied and secretly... do some tricks? "

The competition within the Xiliang Army is fierce, which is one of the reasons why they can maintain their super high combat power. Dong Zhuo is also happy to see this kind of competition among the generals, but if anyone dares to have a dispute over the major event he has set, it is tantamount to pulling him tiger beard.

"This matter must be closely monitored. If Lu Bu shows any signs of sabotaging the army's expedition, report to me immediately!"

"My subordinates obeyed, but... I also asked the grand master to send some people to help. I'm afraid I can't cover everything by myself!"

Except for the east gate, the remaining three gates of Luoyang have Lu Bu's people out of the city. Hu Zhen is really powerless to monitor and investigate alone.

It's just that the bandit army is about to go out, Niu Fu has to be responsible for the distribution of military supplies and food, Li Jue has gone to Gong County, and Xu Rong has the important task of guarding the city gate.

Dong Zhuo couldn't think of a suitable candidate for a while, so he asked Li Ru.

Li Ru thought for a while and replied: "Or let Zhang Ji's nephew Zhang Xiu go to watch outside the north gate, General Hu Zhen go to the south gate, and let Liu Yu check the west gate!"

The matter of monitoring and investigating Lu Bu's soldiers should not be too hasty. If it is not handled properly, Hu Zhen will be blamed, so it is necessary to find a trustworthy candidate.

Zhang Xiu has been serving as a secret agent under Niu Fu, and his own military strength is also very outstanding, so he has no objection to using him at this time, Hu Zhen.

But Liu Yu is a member of the royalist faction, could it be that Li Ru took the wrong medicine and sent him there?

Seeing that Hu Zhen was puzzled, Dong Zhuo revealed Liu Yu's true identity.

After learning of Liu Yu's identity as a spy, Hu Zhen showed an expression of sudden realization. It turns out that Liu Yu is the Taishi's confidant, and it seems that he should make friends with him more in the future!

Lv Bu's troop deployment was unexpectedly taken by Dong Zhuo as a plan to sabotage the army's expedition. Afterwards, this accident not only allowed Liu Yu to avoid suspicion, but also provided him with an excellent opportunity to kill Hu Zhen.

……

In the backyard of Yong'an Palace, Dong Bai was holding the box of mahjong, but he couldn't find anyone to play cards with her.

"Grandpa has something to discuss with Li Ru today. The eldest brother-in-law Niu Fu also left the house early in the morning, and the second sister has disappeared. It's just me and the eldest sister, how can we play this card!"

Dong Bai stomped his feet angrily, and suddenly thought that the person who invented the mahjong tiles seemed to have not come to report to her today.

"Hmph, we agreed to come to Yong'an Palace every day. Since you won't come to see me, then I have no choice but to go find you!" After saying that, Dong Bai was going to take his elder sister Dong Yi to the south of the city to find Liu Yu.

Dong Bai didn't walk a few steps, but he found that the Zhongchang servant Han Rang led the right general Guo Si to walk quickly, and the direction didn't seem to be going to see his grandfather, but to the room of the second aunt Dong Yuan.

"Then why is General Guo looking for Second Aunt? Besides, Second Aunt doesn't seem to be in the room!" Dong Bai curiously stood on tiptoe to get a better look.

But the elder sister Dong Yi said with a shy smile: "Don't meddle in your own business, let's go play cards with your head guard!"

In fact, Dong Yi bumped into her sister having a tryst with Guo Bang more than once, out of concern and sympathy for her sister, she didn't tell her father about it, but only mentioned it to her husband Niu Fu.

After hearing this, Niu Fu didn't have any opinion on the surface, and said that Dong Yuan was pitiful when she lost her husband when she was young, and she should find a man to remarry, but in her heart, she wanted to kill Guo Bang.

But when I heard that it was Zhongchang servant Han Rang who led Guo Bang and Dong Yuan in the middle, I couldn't figure it out.

Han Rang is Guo Bang's brother-in-law, so he doesn't consider his own sister's feelings at all?
Or does Han Rang have any other purpose in bringing Guo Si and Dong Yuan together!
