Chu Huan nodded and said, "I think few people don't know the name of Thirteen Taibao. They are indeed loyal to General Feng."
Xu Shao said: "The Thirteenth Taibao is General Feng's personal guard, and is famous all over the world. As one of the four generals, it is natural to have such a personal guard around him. And the other three generals naturally have personal guards as well!"
Chu Huan said "Oh", and Xu Shao said: "General Chi Lian Di, Liaodong, is surrounded by the eighteen horses of Liaodong, and General Lei Guheng, and there are five hundred thunder cavalry around him, and General Yu is surrounded by five hundred tiger-wing cavalry!"
"Tiger Winged Rider?"
"That's right!" Xu Shao's eyes showed a look of pride. "The Tiger Winged Cavalry is the guard cavalry who followed General Yu's life and death. They always stayed by the old general, protecting the safety of the old general. Although they went on one after another, many people died, but whenever someone died in battle, new warriors would enter, and the Tiger Winged Cavalry never disappeared."
Chu Huan understood and sighed: "It turns out that this cavalry is the guards of the old general. No wonder they are so well-trained and tacitly cooperate. They are worthy of being a weapon on the battlefield... The veteran general is a tiger on the battlefield. With this cavalry team, it is really like a tiger's wings. The tiger-winged cavalry is worthy of its name!"
Xu Shao had a smile in his eyes, "The veteran general personally inquired about the training of the tiger-winged cavalry and was very disciplined. I came from the tiger-winged cavalry. After the promotion of the veteran general, I finally handed over the command of the tiger-winged cavalry to me."
"The old general can give you the commandership of the guards cavalry to you, and the old general will naturally trust you very much."
Xu Shao stroked the sword in his hand and said slowly: "This knife is called the Tiger Sword. Few people know the origin of this knife, but the warriors of the Tiger Winged Cavalry are very clear. This is the treasure sword given to the first Tiger Winged Cavalry when the veteran general formed the Tiger Winged Cavalry. This treasure sword was personally given to each new commander by the veteran general. Since the establishment of the Tiger Winged Cavalry, there have been six commanders of the Tiger Winged Cavalry. Four of the five commanders before me died on the battlefield, and the other died due to injury...!" The eyes under the mask showed a kind of brilliance: "The commander of the Tiger Winged Cavalry has never died on duty, and the cavalry of the Tiger Winged Cavalry will only die on the battlefield with the glory of the Tiger Winged Cavalry!"
Chu Huan then realized why Xu Shao valued the knife in his hand so much. Obviously, this knife was naturally the battle knife that Yu Buqu personally gave to Xu Shao when Xu Shao took office. This knife itself may not be a peerless treasure sword, at least it is a world of difference from his own blood-drinking sword, but the knife carries too many things. It is already a symbol of loyalty and courage.
Sixth generation commander, a knife!
Although Chu Huan knew that Xu Shao was Yu Buqu’s confidant general, he had never known what role Xu Shao played under Yu Buqu’s hands. When I think back, it is no wonder that Xu Shao was standing by the side when he saw Yu Buqu several times. As the commander of the cavalry of the personal guards, Xu Shao followed Yu Buqu to protect Yu Buqu’s safety. That was a natural thing.
The four generals followed Yingyuan to fight in the east and west. Although they had great military achievements, they also killed people. Each of them had countless enemies and their own guards, which was naturally very normal.
"Before the general left, entrust the Tiger Winged Cavalry to my hands." Xu Shao sighed lightly: "The old general was already very weak at that time. The last words he left for me were just to let me find a good home for the brothers of the Tiger Winged Cavalry...!" At this point, the expression in his eyes became solemn, and Yu Buqu's words gave Xu Shao a huge task.
Good home?
Where is a good destination?
"You were taking the tiger-winged cavalry to rob the execution ground?" Chu Huan sighed: "Did you think at that time that this might be just a trick of Dongfang Xin. You were the deputy general of Pingxi Army, who restrained Dongfang Xin and prevented him from doing anything wrong. Of course, he would eliminate you quickly. However, many of Pingxi Army were old generals of Old General Yu, and you had the tiger-winged cavalry in your hand. Dongfang Xin dared not attack you directly. He used Hou Mo as a breakthrough point and designed to frame Hou Mo and others and dragged him to the execution ground, perhaps just to attract you to take action!"
Xu Shao nodded and said, "When I heard this news, I immediately knew Dongfang Xin's intentions, but even if I knew, would I not be able to hide because I was afraid of Dongfang Xin's trap?" He smiled faintly and said calmly: "The Tiger Winged Cavalry has never had only warriors who died in battle, but never had a turtle that shrank his head!"
"I think so." Chu Huan smiled and said, "Dongfang Xin may also know your temperament and knows that you will definitely save him, so he set this trap."
"He did set up a trap, and I know very well that everything was controlled by Zhu Lingyue behind the scenes." Xu Shao said lightly: "There are already ambushing the heavy troops in the execution ground. As soon as I arrive and save Hou Mo, they will surround me and the Huyi Cavalry in the execution ground for the crime of treason. Does Chu Du know how many soldiers and horses were ambushed there at that time?"
Chu Huan said: "Of course it is a very large number?"
"No less than three thousand!" Xu Shao smiled and said, "The heavy troops were ambushing me, who was determined to capture my tiger winged cavalry in one net. But they still looked down on the tiger winged cavalry. The tiger winged cavalry has been fighting for the rest of their lives, and only three thousand people are worth it!"
"You saved Hou Mo and others and broke through the siege?"
"The Huyi Cavalry rushed to the execution ground and rescued Hou Mo. The ambush arranged by Dongfang Xin immediately went out, and I had already designed the route to break through in advance." Xu Shao said: "The old general died. At that time, the northwest was considered Zhu Lingyue's world. Although I had the Huyi Cavalry in my hand, I also knew that it was too weak compared to their strength, so I planned to rescue Hou Mo and break out from the beginning." After a pause, I slowly said: "Zhu Lingyue might not have expected that the Huyi Cavalry was sharper than he thought. Although we had lost dozens of people, we still broke through the encirclement. Moreover, at the other end of the city gate, we had already prepared. After all, the Pingxi Army had the old subordinates of the old general, and opened the city gate. I led the remaining four hundred brothers to rush out of Shuoquan City, and never returned to Shuoquan again."
"The tiger-winged cavalry disappeared, but Yunlifeng suddenly appeared." Chu Huan sighed: "Yunlifeng was famous for a while. Even the Lord Dong Shizhen and Dong were also very afraid of Yunlifeng."
"The tiger-winged cavalry has always been a tiger-winged cavalry. The so-called Yunlifeng is just a name given by outsiders." Xu Shao put the tiger-sword on the stone table and looked at Chu Huan, "Whether it is the tiger-winged cavalry or Yunlifeng, I can guarantee that we have never killed an innocent person, nor have we robbed a needle of the people. There are many bandits in Xiguan, many of them are mobs. Xiguan is full of mountains. It is not difficult for us to hide our traces. Every now and then, as long as we hear that there are bandits harming the people, we will send troops to wipe out. Chu Duke is not invisible. From the time we left Shuoquan until we defeated the so-called Guan King in the previous period, we wiped out twenty-one bandits and killed more than five hundred bandits. The tiger-winged cavalry only paid the price of three brothers!"
Chu Huan had already given a thumbs up and praised, "How might it be!" Then he frowned and asked, "Do you know Niulan Village?"
"I know." Xu Shao nodded immediately, "I know it too late for someone to slaughter the village in Niulan Village. Do Duke Chu know who did it?"
Chu Huan shook his head and said, "Dong Shizhen insisted that it was you who did it, but I know it wouldn't be that simple."
Xu Shao laughed and said, "Director Chu clearly, maybe Dongfang Xin and the others had long guessed that the so-called Yunlifeng was the tiger-winged cavalry. Dongfang Xin commanded the Pingxi army and did not do his best to wipe out the rioters, but he was determined to find our whereabouts. Unfortunately, they could not understand our whereabouts. As for many tragedies in Xiguan, they were all held on our heads, and the purpose was very simple. Let the people hate Yunlifeng and regard Yunlifeng as a murderous demon. This will naturally be of great benefit to them."
Chu Huan asked, "Then do you know who slaughtered the village in Niulan Village?"
"Hulu Village!" Xu Shao said without hesitation.
Chu Huan's eyebrows tightened, "Huluzhai?"
"Duke Chu should know that the one who killed Niulan Village was a cavalry." Xu Shao sneered: "Although Xiguan has many bandits, most of them are just mobs. Not to mention war horses, many bandits even lack weapons. In Xiguan, except for officers and soldiers, there are only our Tiger Wing Cavalry and Hulu Village!"
A cold light flashed through Chu Huan's eyes and said lightly: "Hulu Village, General Qiu!"
Xu Shao said: "Director Chu knows General Qiu?"
"I have heard of the fame of Hulu Village many times." Chu Huan sneered, "I have heard of that General Qiu, too." After pausing, he said, "On the way to Xiguan to take office, I was caught in the ambush at Hulu Village and almost died in their hands!"
Xu Shao's eyes showed a look of surprise, "Hulu Village has assassinated Duke Chu?" He said with some confusion: "I didn't expect this... Why did Hulu Village know so much about Duke Chu's whereabouts? And why did they attack Duke Chu?"
Chu Huan asked, "Do you know the vanguard camp of the Northwest Army?"
Xu Shao nodded and said, "I know that the Pioneer Battalion is a suicide squad of the Northwest Army. Most of the convicted prisoners were sent to the border and assigned to the Pioneer Battalion." He paused and said, "Does Chu know anything?" His eyes were already showing a strange color.
Chu Huan naturally saw the expression in Xu Shao's eyes and asked back: "Does Commander Xu know some secrets of Hulu Village?"
Xu Shao pondered for a moment before saying, "Actually, I'm not sure. But Hulu Village is indeed different from ordinary bandits. Hulu Mountain is the first mountain in Xiguan. It stretches for nearly a hundred miles, with mountains undulating and dangerous terrain. There are many caves on the mountain and there are sufficient water sources. After the people of Xiliang retreated, Hulu Mountain seemed to have an extra Hulu Village overnight. Before the old general died, he knew that Hulu Village was a disaster. He also thought of sending troops to wipe out Hulu Village first. However, there were too many things later, and the old general's health was getting worse, so he had not implemented it... Hulu Village also grew stronger with this. Many weak bandits defected to Hulu Village. As far as I know, Hulu Village now has less than four or five thousand people... They have sufficient supplies, and there are many war horses...!"
"I'm very surprised, where did they come from so many weapons and equipment?" Chu Huan thoughtfully and said slowly, "Where did you get so many war horses?" He stared at Xu Shao and asked, "What is General Qiu's origin? Does he have anything to do with the Pioneer Camp?"
