Han Xiang

Chapter 47

Seeing Qiao Rui's tense expression, Long Xiang knew that he was out of order, thinking that the children of the Qiao family were all underage, if Qiao Rui really died because of this, the family should be in a very difficult situation.

Yuan Shu was born in a famous and wealthy family. He was an eagle and a dog since he was a child, and he was aloof. It was difficult for him to bend down and treat people sincerely. Just like a male lion in a lion pride, he only knows that he can eat first, and he doesn’t think about other lions Can you eat enough.

The relationship between Yuan Shu and his civil servants is a simple master-servant relationship. Most of the resources come from family inheritance, so he can't make any real friends. Even when he attacked Cao Cao to seize Yanzhou, he found foreign aid from the Black Mountain Army Zhang Yan, Nan The Xiongnu Shanyu and other fringe forces, the rest of the princes he can not control.

Therefore, even if Qiao Rui is General Yuan Shu, the family members left behind after the accident will most likely not be treated excessively preferentially, and it will be difficult to restore their former glory.

Long Xiang thought of these joints, thought about the kindness of the Qiao family to him, and comforted him sincerely: "Young master, don't think about it, Lu Bu and His Majesty have turned against each other because of their marriage, but they have not become mortal enemies. With Huainan's current manpower and material resources, Xuzhou is far away. They can't match, even if Lu Bu wins a small victory, he should accept it as soon as it is good, and I believe that General Qiao will return safely."

Qiao Ni nodded, "The analysis is well-founded, and I feel a little more at ease. Yun Qi is indeed as his father said, very wise."

"What wisdom do I have? I just like to think too much when I have nothing to do." Long Xiang waved his hands modestly, and then reminded Qiao Er earnestly: "General Qiao's life and death are uncertain now, and the family should be very worried, right? Stay in the mansion and comfort your wife and miss, you are the only male of the Qiao family, the pillar of the future."

"Yeah, that's what Eldest Sister said. Mother learned that Father had an accident, and fell ill in bed due to excessive worry." Qiao Ni's words were full of sadness.

Long Xiang patted Qiao Ren on the shoulder presumptuously, and said softly like an elder brother telling his younger brother: "Then go home quickly, the most important thing is to protect the family, don't run around anymore."

"understood"

Qiao Ni has been soft-tempered since he was a child, and after listening to Long Xiang's words, he seemed very obedient. He said goodbye in a daze and turned around, but he stopped and looked back after walking a few steps.

Seeing this, Long Xiang hurried up to meet him, frowning and asked: "My lord, do you have anything else to do?"

"I have a request, I don't know if I should say it or not." Qiao Ni looked up at Long Xiang, his clear eyes flickered.

Long Xiang clasped his fists and replied sonorously: "General Qiao has a great favor for me. As long as the last general can do what he can, he will definitely go all out."

"Yun Qi is so smart, if it's possible, I mean if, can you think of a way to save your father?"

Qiao Niu spoke hesitantly, and he thought it was ridiculous, but before going out to look for Long Xiang, Qiao Wan had specifically instructed him, so he asked by the way.

Long Xiang was silent for a moment, then nodded solemnly and said, "Young Master, go back first, I will try to find a way."

"okay."

Qiao Ni bid farewell and turned around with a surprised face, thinking that the second sister was really good at predicting things, no matter whether Long Xiang was perfunctory or not, she really accepted it seriously.

Qiao Wan is the smartest among the three brothers and sisters, Qiao Ni plans to go back and ask if there is any way to train the brain, why does it feel that the gap in intelligence is getting bigger and bigger?

When Tang Xi sent the bridgeman down the tower, Long Xiang beckoned him to his side, and asked with a serious face: "The one sent to Xiapi to deliver the letter last year was Uncle Xi's column leader, right?" (The column leader is one of the five) Chief, equivalent to the squad leader of the army, is the lowest level manager in the army)
"Well, this person's name is Luo Yicheng, and he has been with me for several years, so he is absolutely credible." Tang Yu replied seriously.

Long Xiang frowned, squeezed his chin, and asked again: "It's been more than half a year since last year, and no news has come back?"

"No, I guess Han Yin isn't there." Tang Yu's face changed drastically in the middle of the sentence, and he hurriedly added: "I heard that Han Yin was secretly sent to Xudu Xiaoshou, Luo Yicheng is afraid that he doesn't know the situation, and he is probably still stranded in Xiapi In the city."

Last year, Luo Yicheng was ordered to deliver a letter to Xiapi, and the twenty soldiers sneaked back into the city to secretly collect information that was not good for Long Xiang. After all, Long Xiang and Han Yin had a shallow and deep relationship, and they would be sold out easily by the other party. .

The purpose of laying down Luo Yicheng's nail was to prepare for a rainy day. Once Han Yin betrayed him, Long Xiang could evacuate from Shouchun in time.

Long Xiang looked at Tang Yu and asked tentatively: "Uncle Xi, do you think it is possible to send someone to Xiapi so that Luo Yicheng can find a way to rescue General Qiao?"

"Let Luo Yicheng rescue General Qiaoqiao? Although this person is clever and flexible, there is only one person after all." Tang Yu replied without confidence.

"It's not enough for one person. Before Yuan Shu wanted to instigate Hao Meng, I sent him a letter. This person is the captain of the Xiapi City Defense School. In addition, Han Yin is also in contact with Chen Gong. If Luo Yicheng is allowed to operate in Xiapi , maybe we can use the power of these two to accomplish something?"

"I don't know if he can do it or not."

"No way. It doesn't work well, and I may cause death." Long Xiang himself denied it first, and then pressed his temple with one hand to think about countermeasures.

Seeing Long Xiang leaning against the city wall with a sad face, Tang Xi comforted him softly: "Don't be too burdened, Yun Qi. Although you agreed to the young master's request, this matter is beyond our ability. Why don't we wait for Lu Bu to make a condition?" Come, His Majesty will try to redeem General Qiao."

"I'm afraid that Lu Bu's conditions are harsh, and our Majesty is reluctant." Long Xiang first shook his head and smiled bitterly, according to his instructions to Tang Yu: "Whether General Qiao can be saved or not, Luo Yicheng will also notify him to withdraw, but the two families are still fighting. The road to Xiapi might not be safe, so go get ready and wait."

"Wei." Tang Xi accepted the order with cupped fists.

On the frontal battlefield in Xuzhou, although Zhang Xun retreated and gathered his troops, Lu Bu did not give him a chance to counterattack at all. He frantically pursued and killed like a wolf chasing a flock of sheep. The morale of the Huainan army collapsed again and again. Run down the road and think about it.

At the beginning of May, Lu Bu made a long-distance raid for hundreds of miles, as far as Zhongli County, Jiujiang County.

The Huai River blocked the way ahead, but there were not enough boats to cross the river. Countless soldiers drowned here, and none of the survivors returned to the south bank. Fortunately, Yuan Shu's reinforcements had arrived at Zhongli.

The two Chen soldiers faced each other across the river on the banks of the Huaishui River. Lu Bu, with the power of victory, was in high spirits, and he joined Han Xian and Yang Feng in front, wondering if he should go all out.

Chen Gui took the opportunity to gallop forward, cupped his hands, and suggested, "Our army has acquired countless supplies in this battle, and I think there are less than [-] soldiers and horses on the other side. Why not cut down wood and make boats to continue crossing the river? Wen Hou can take advantage of the high fighting spirit of the soldiers, and we can do it with one move." By leveling Huainan and destroying Yuan Shu, everyone can make great contributions to the present and leave a good name in history."

"Good." General Han Xian and Yang Feng nodded at the same time.

Lu Bu listened to it, and the corners of his mouth raised involuntarily. Just as he was about to issue an order, a general in the rear galloped forward and shouted as he ran, "General, the big thing is not good, the big thing is not good."
