Three Kingdoms

Chapter 156: Old friend, new journey

Although Fei Qian guessed that there was a high possibility that Liu Biao would send Yi Ji over, Fei Qian had no intention of waiting where he was, and continued to move forward after driving Liu Pan away.

The specially arranged confrontation in the evening of that day was very effective. Huang Zhong also heard the elegant sound of the string and fully demonstrated his personal bravery, which convinced the group of soldiers.

As the saying goes, there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. This is what it means. When it comes to talking, no one will accept it. You think it is so, but I think it is not. No one can pick apart the bones of an egg better than anyone else. Who is far behind, but in comparison, the military prefers to use force to speak. Whoever has a bigger fist has the right to speak.

That night, Huang Zhong easily swept through all the team leaders and commanders. Almost no one could survive more than one battle under his command. , now everyone is obedient to Huang Zhong's orders, with no intention of obeying them.

In the era of cold weapon warfare like the Han Dynasty, following a general with high martial arts skills would obviously have a better chance of survival than following a useless person on the battlefield while the two armies were fighting. So basically, as long as there is no problem with the brain, They all like their generals to be brave men.

Therefore, after Fei Qian handed the tiger talisman to Huang Zhong, he basically stopped worrying about it. Under Huang Zhong's deployment, the entire team appears more efficient and rhythmic.

Huang Zhong divided the 800 army armor into four parts, front, rear, left and right, and carried out in an orderly manner around the central army composed of one hundred private soldiers led by Huang Cheng and others. And this time, it was not just the two hundred people from the front army who were always there. Instead of taking on the task of opening the way, it's on a rotating basis.

At regular intervals, Huang Zhong led the front army to stop for a short rest. After the troops behind him caught up, he changed the order of the troops clockwise, and then moved forward again with the new front army.

Although it seemed a little more troublesome, when we set up camp at sunset, it was a little different from yesterday. Yesterday, the two hundred people who were responsible for opening the camp were very tired when setting up camp, and were obviously much slower than other soldiers. Today, basically all the soldiers took about the same amount of time to set up their tents.

Fei Qian guessed that Huang Zhong took the trouble to rotate. The first reason was to get familiar with each team of soldiers as soon as possible to avoid lack of command when needed; secondly, there were not many people anyway, so it would not take long to switch. Time; as for the third one - hehe, Fei Qian had some nasty guesses, is Huang Zhong using these soldiers and armors to increase the commander's experience value...

At sunset, the camp had been set up. This time, we set up camp on the wild ground, without access to the village or the inn.

In Fei Qian's eyes, the camp set up by Huang Zhong with his armor was basically relatively complete, with a few imperfections due to the lack of equipment he carried.

Fei Qian recalled that in the "Tiger Tao" category in "Six Tao", there were some interesting instructions on how to set up defenses for military camping in the mountains...

——“Narrow roads and small paths, sunken ground, connected with iron weapons and locks… Living in the wild in the mountains and forests, knotting tigers and falling firewood camps, surrounded by sharp iron ropes… Refusing to guard the gates, spears, halberds and small oars… Narrow roads and small paths, Zhang Caltrops... among the grass in the wilderness, square breasts with spears..."

To put it simply, it is to dig some traps, set up some stumbling ropes, throw some caltrops, and then stick some ground spears in the deep grass to stab the chest diagonally...

Were ancient people also quite insidious?

As for whether the unlucky guy would bump into him at night, Fei Qian said that in the Han Dynasty, ordinary people basically returned home after nightfall and did not go out. Even people on the road would look for a place to camp, almost No one comes out in the middle of the night. Those who wander around in the middle of the night are probably either thieves or robbers...

Not long after the camp was set up, and it was not completely dark yet, Yi Ji, who had been hurrying slowly all the way, finally arrived.

In order to catch up with Fei Qian as soon as possible, Yiji abandoned the slow carriage and rode non-stop along the way. When he arrived at the inn, he changed horses without changing people.

By the time they met up with Fei Qian, Yi Ji was feeling better. After all, he was well prepared. His thighs were padded with two pieces of fur and were not worn. However, after dismounting, he couldn't even stand firmly and fell directly to the ground.

The guards were even more miserable. Some of them had their legs bruised and bloody, which made them look pitiful...

Fei Qian quickly asked people to help Yiji and his party to bandage and treat them.

After Yi Ji was served by his left and right, he took a rest and tidied up, then freshened up a little, changed his clothes, and ate the breast milk, and then his whole body was refreshed.

After all, Yi Ji was an old friend Fei had met several times after sneaking to Xiangyang, and he was also a civil servant, so he asked Yi Ji to share the tent with him. Anyway, there were only three people living in his tent, plus Yi Ji. It won't seem crowded either.

"Uncle Ji, it's been a hard journey." Fei Qian sat on the hay mat laid out in the tent, taking off his crown and saying to Yi Ji with a smile. ——This Yiji is truly Liu Biao’s confidant, so desperate...

"It's all for business, how can we say it's a blessing? By the way, this is a letter from the governor to Ziyuan." Yi Ji also said as he took out a letter and handed it over.

Fei Qian took it and scanned it briefly - as expected by Fei Qian, Liu Biao didn't mention anything about Liu Pan at all. He just said that this mission was very important, so he sent Yi Ji to act as Fei Qian's. Lieutenant, assist Fei Qian so that he can find out the deficiencies and make up for them. I hope the two of them can work together to complete this mission and so on...

——Liu Pan didn't say how to deal with it. Fei Qian guessed that it basically didn't deal with it at all. As for the words behind the letter about working together, Liu Biao also took this opportunity to express his dissatisfaction...

Regardless of Liu Biao's dissatisfaction, my goal was achieved anyway. Fei Qian had nothing to worry about and no need to worry about it, so he took the deputy envoy's seal and ribbon and handed it to Yi Ji with both hands.

Yi Ji also took it with both hands solemnly. After putting it away properly, he seemed to have accomplished something and seemed to feel a little more relaxed.

Fei Qian waited until Yi Ji had put away the seal and ribbon, and then said, "It is Fei Qian's honor to be able to go on an envoy with Uncle Ji this time. By the way, what special instructions does Liu Gong have for Uncle Ji's visit this time?"

Yi Ji was sorting out his belongings. Hearing Fei Qian's question, his movements paused slightly, and then he said: "Isn't it all explained in the letter? I naturally follow the arrangements..."

Fei Qian smiled and did not continue to ask, but said: "Well, I think it's getting late, and Uncle Ji has had a hard time, so why not rest early, we have to travel tomorrow..."

——Although Yi Ji's words seemed to express submission on the surface, Fei Qian could also guess that at least two pieces of information were revealed...
