Chapter 132 Incidents in the North
"Wenhe, why is it so urgent?" Guo Hao rushed back exhausted. If he walked as fast as he could, he could return in one day.
However, for safety reasons, he brought Zhao Yun's headquarters back with him.
There was no way. Even in Luoyang, he did not dare to be careless, and Jia Xu specifically asked Guo Hao to lead one of Lu Bu and Zhao Yun in the letter.
Although he didn't understand the meaning, Guo Hao believed in Jia Xu's judgment.
Hulao Pass would always seem strange without Lu Bu, so Guo Hao left Dian Wei at Hulao Pass and returned to Luoyang with Zhao Yun's troops.
"My lord, follow me." When Jia Xu saw Guo Hao coming back, his face was serious and he took Guo Hao to a secluded place.
Guo Hao didn't understand, but he still waited patiently for Jia Xu's next words.
"My lord, please take a look!" Jia Xu solemnly took out a letter of intelligence and handed it to Guo Hao.
"Is there an unknown force in Liangzhou? Ma Teng is seriously injured? Wen Yue is seriously injured? Han Chen is seriously injured?" Guo Hao's expression changed drastically. Beiliang City is his hometown, how could something like this suddenly happen?
"Wen Yue explained in the letter that the enemy might come from the north. Most of the hostiles are Hu people, but they have legion talents!"
"Legion talent? Wenhe means Northern Huns?"
Jia Xu nodded seriously. The Hu people like the Southern Xiongnu were destined to never produce a legion at the level of the Imperial Guards. Similarly, it was completely impossible for the Hu people to produce people with legionary talent.
Besides, the only opponent who could defeat both Jiang Wei and Di Qing was probably the Northern Huns.
No wonder Jia Xu eagerly called me back.
The news about the Northern Huns cannot be leaked for now, and the only people who know about it are probably Jia Xu and Guo Hao.
Although Jia Xu speculated on the existence of the Northern Huns, it is highly likely.
If the princes could not be subdued, even if the country was unified ahead of schedule because of the Northern Huns, it would only be a political struggle replacing the quagmire of war.
There is still a chance to unify by force in the quagmire of war, but if it turns into a political struggle, Guo Hao and his people will never be able to defeat the aristocratic families in their lifetime.
When it comes to political struggles, aristocratic families are the forerunners, and when the time comes, their future will be in danger.
"I understand. I will lead the team back myself." Guo Hao nodded, already understanding what Jia Xu meant.
The news about the Northern Huns must not be leaked, and after searching the court, only Guo Hao was found to be suitable to return to Beiliang City.
The news about the Northern Huns must be announced to the world, but definitely not now.
"My lord, the Northern Huns are no different from other Hu people. Please bring the Yulin Guards with you when you go to Beiliang. The Northern Huns should not be underestimated." There was worry in Jia Xu's eyes.
Guo Hao nodded after hearing this. There was the Sun Legion in Beiliang City, but with the unstable strength of the Sun Legion's guards, it was indeed somewhat insufficient when facing the Northern Huns.
"I will leave today. I hope Wenhe will keep an eye on Hulao Pass."
"Hulao Pass is guarded by Xu Rong, and there are generals like Lu Bu to help. Wen You and Zichuan are both great heroes of the time. I think there should be no problem. My lord, there is no need to worry." Seeing Guo Hao frowning, Jia Xu couldn't help but comfort him.
"I hope so. Man proposes, God disposes. The Liangzhou incident may not be that simple. I'm worried that there may be a family behind it."
Guo Hao rubbed his brows. The sudden appearance of the enemy might be related to the aristocratic family.
"If an enemy comes, we will stop him with our generals. If a flood comes, we will block it with earth. Now we can only ask the Lord to settle the crisis in Beiliang."
Jia Xu also shook his head. Without enough information, he couldn't analyze anything.
"Okay then. I'll leave right away. I'll leave the rest to Wenhe."
Jia Xu nodded. Ever since he handed over the internal affairs to Chen Xi, his only job was to control intelligence. He had no idea how much easier it was.
The plan arranged by Chen Xi is very reasonable, and all the officials under his command are making progress in an orderly manner. He does not need to worry about this matter for the time being.
"My lord, please go now. I, Jia Xu, will be in Luoyang, so there will be no problem."
"By the way, why did Wenhe ask me to bring Zilong back?"
"There are ferocious beasts in Luoyang. Wang Yue believes that he is no match for them. According to Wang Yue, the beasts are hiding in the houses of Luoyang residents, so we can only ask General Zhao Yun to return."
Guo Hao nodded in understanding. No wonder Jia Xu did not mention Dian Wei. His Jingxiu skills were too lacking in detection methods. He was okay in fighting, but in other aspects, he could not catch up with Qi cultivators and Shen cultivators.
On the other side, Hulao Pass had already begun preparing for a night attack.
Li Ru prepared for a change in the weather first, intending to use the water vapor to condense a fog to cover the army's expedition.
Chen Xi, who was lying dead beside him, scratched his head and complained.
"Wenyou, your technique is too crude. This mist doesn't look normal. You're just alerting the enemy."
The fog obscured the view and even the moon in the sky could not be seen clearly. How could such fog appear suddenly?
As he was speaking, the fog that Li Ru had arranged with the help of the weather began to dissipate.
"Look, Wenyou, someone in the coalition has already noticed something is wrong!"
"Zichuan, who are you from after all? Not only do you not help, but you also make sarcastic remarks." Li Ru glared at Chen Xi with dissatisfaction, and did not care too much about the dissipation of the fog.
It was originally just to provide a convenience for night attacks . There is no difference whether it is there or not.
"Enemy attack!" A shrill roar was heard from the allied camp.
I saw several golden-red Fang Tian Huaji appear in the fog that had not yet completely dissipated, and smashed heavily into the coalition camp.
Chen Xi stood at Hulao Pass and watched the strong wind caused by the explosion completely blow away the fog, and spread his hands.
"Look, the fog is totally unnecessary. With this kind of noise, let alone fog, it would be useless even if you darkened the moon."
Li Ru's face turned dark, but he didn't say much. He had forgotten how ostentatious Lu Bu was when he took action.
To be honest, if someone else was as conspicuous as Lu Bu on the battlefield, he would have been killed by concentrated fire long ago.
But when the person shining through the streets is Lu Bu, there's always a feeling that this is how it should be.
The allied camp was suddenly attacked and there was obvious panic. From the chaotic shouting, it could be understood that Lu Bu had probably penetrated the place of attack.
Lu Bu rushed into the camp on his Red Hare, and all he saw were soldiers running out of the tents in panic, without even their weapons, and some of them didn't even have clothes on.
"What a bunch of rubbish! Not even as good as the Hu people!" Lu Bu sneered as he looked at the extremely panicked soldiers in front of him.
He had never seen such a chaotic scene when he fought the Hu people on the grassland. It was more like a group of ordinary people holding weapons than a group of soldiers.
"kill!"
Lu Bu shouted and rushed directly towards the largest central military tent.
If he were to fight the Hu people, he would be interested in mowing down the barbarians and killing all the guys around him.
But if it were the Han people, he would not want to carry out a massacre, and he is not a madman.
If he wanted to kill the Hu people, he would just kill them, no one would care. But if he carried out a massacre in the Central Plains, he would not be able to get promoted in the future.
Having finally started his career in politics, he doesn't want to go back to the days when he was kept in the dark.
He is now Marquis Wen, and he needs to be classy. It would be too cheap of him to massacre the militia.
