Liu Bei was too good at running.
After a long period of running, even the main cavalry of Cao's army, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, had reached their limit.
However, this was not Liu Bei's limit.
Cao Cao set up camp on Changban Slope and asked the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and his main force to stop and rest.
He also ordered the newly collected miscellaneous troops to attack from all sides to kill the remnants of Liu Bei's army.
Professionals do professional things.
As for these inferior things, let those inferior people do it.
For a while, it was like letting a hound go into the mountains.
People were driven out everywhere.
Somewhere on the battlefield, Zhao Yun, riding a white horse and a silver spear, stabbed a Cao army that was looting everywhere to death with one spear, and then walked forward.
After walking for a while, he saw several fleeing people. Zhao Yun stepped forward and grabbed them, asking about the whereabouts of Mrs. Gan and Mrs. Mi.
One of the old men had just seen Liu Bei's two wives, so he told Zhao Yun that Madam Gan had gone west with a group of people.
Madam Mi was injured in her legs and feet, and was hiding in a deserted village with a child in her arms.
Zhao Yun thanked her when he heard about it.
He rode his horse and hurried to the deserted village.
There were more and more Cao's troops on the road, and Zhao Yun killed several waves of soldiers, and he became more and more worried.
When he arrived at the deserted village, Zhao Yun looked around and called, and finally found Madam Mi next to a dry well.
Madam Mi had an ankle injury and could no longer walk. She was sitting next to the dry well holding A Dou and crying.
Seeing Zhao Yun coming, Madam Mi was surprised and happy, and wiped her tears and said:
"Fortunately, I saw the general, A Dou is saved."
So she handed A Dou to Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun asked Madam Mi to get on the horse.
Just as Madam Mi was about to go over, she heard the shouts of soldiers around her.
So he cried, "How can a general be without a horse?"
The shouting and killing sounds around him were getting closer and closer. Zhao Yun also anxiously requested again and again. In order not to drag Zhao Yun down, Mrs. Mi made up her mind and fell into a dry well beside her.
Under the well.
The beggar occupied a unique and safe place and was sleeping soundly.
Ever since he had a dream under the wall of the city of Xicheng that a pair of straw sandals fell from the sky.
Then a pair of straw sandals really fell and woke him up.
Since then, he kept thinking that as long as he could dream of a beautiful girl, God would throw a beautiful woman to him.
To be his wife.
So now the beggar is also having such a dream.
A gust of wind fell to the ground.
It seemed that something fell down.
The beggar was awakened from his dream, but several ribs on his body were also broken.
He wanted to curse in pain, but he couldn't make a sound at all.
After finally seeing clearly that the one who hit him was really a beauty.
The beggar grinned, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.
"Hey, wife..."
With a loud noise from the well mouth, it seemed that a wall fell down and covered the dry well.
The world of beggars fell into darkness.
…………
"What?"
"Not selling anymore?"
At the dock of Wankou, Tang Jian looked at the fat young man opposite him a little frantically.
But his attention was always attracted by the pimples on his face that were about to burst.
"We have waited for seven days and the money has been paid. You say you don't want to sell it, so you don't sell it?"
If he didn't get this batch of supplies, then his thousands of people would not be able to arm themselves.
There would be no way to talk about the future entrepreneurial plan.
So Tang Jian must get these goods.
"Are you dissatisfied with the low price and want to raise the price?"
"Tell me, how much more do you want to raise before you are willing to sell it?"
Tang Jian also made up his mind and decided to take this batch of supplies at any cost, even if he suffered a loss.
As long as the team is armed, they can participate in the Battle of Red Cliffs, and there will be plenty of opportunities to make back the money at that time.
"Don't you understand human language?"
Tang Jian was a little confused by the fat man's words.
After all, the fat man has been speaking in code, but this time he rarely spoke in code, but spoke directly to Tang Jian.
Tang Jian was stunned for a moment, and then his ears made a chirping tinnitus, and his blood began to surge up.
He knew that this was because his adrenaline was soaring rapidly and his body had entered a fighting state.
However, for the sake of future plans, Tang Jian chose to endure.
He tried to control his anger and said as kindly as possible:
"Sir... this is not the way to do business."
The fat young man narrowed his eyes and stared at Tang Jian and said:
"How should my Qiao family do business? Do I need you to teach me?"
Tang Jian could now hear the sound of his heart beating rapidly!
He finally held back, smiled, and said:
"Then, when will the money we paid be returned to me?"
The fat young man snorted coldly and said, "Wait!"
Then he turned around and walked back.Tang Jian took a deep breath, caught up with him in two steps, and put his hand on the fat young man's shoulder: "No, buddy."
But the fat young man was already annoyed: "Let me go--"
Snap! ! !
Before he finished saying the word "let go", Tang Jian had already swung a big slap on his face!
Suddenly there was a crisp sound, and the fat young man staggered, a big slap mark appeared on his face, and his face was full of acne!
The fat young man was a little confused by the beating.
Then after two breaths, he reacted.
Suddenly he was angry and reached out to catch Tang Jian.
Tang Jian had already taken a step ahead of him and hit him hard on the carotid artery of his neck with an elbow.
The fat young man rolled his eyes and fell down immediately.
Seeing this, the fat young man's followers quickly drew their knives.
But Zhang He, who was guarding on the side, kicked him on the wrist.
The saber fell into the water, and the man was captured by Zhang He.
Tang Jian brought him to him and said:
"Whatever I ask, you answer."
"If you don't obey, I will tie you to a rock and sink you into the river. Do you understand?"
The follower turned pale and nodded quickly.
Tang Jian then began to ask questions.
"Who is this fat man? What is his position in the Qiao family?"
The attendant quickly answered: "He is the second son of Qiao Xing, the second master of the Qiao family. His name is Qiao Fa. His position in the Qiao family is not high, but it is not low either."
Tang Jian nodded and asked: "If I exchange him for the goods I want, will the so-called second master of the Qiao family be willing to redeem him?"
The attendant replied: "Maybe... I don't know..."
Zhang He on the side immediately drew a knife and put it on his neck:
"Will he? Or won't he?"
The attendant was so scared that he trembled: "Yes! Yes, yes, yes! Definitely!"
Tang Jian waved his hand, signaling Zhang He to let him go.
Then he said: "You go back and report that we have detained Qiao Fa and asked the Qiao family to exchange for goods."
"And the goods must be twice as much as before!"
"We will only wait for one day. If the goods do not arrive at the dock after one day, we will kill him."
"Did you hear that clearly?"
The attendant hurriedly said: "I heard it clearly! I heard it clearly!"
Tang Jian shouted: "Repeat it!"
The attendant was frightened and said quickly: "The gentlemen have detained Qiao Fa and asked the Qiao family to redeem him with twice as much goods. If they do not see the goods after one day, they will kill him."
After listening, Tang Jian nodded with satisfaction and said:
"Well, get out."
