Chapter 531 Hulao Pass
Outside Hulao Pass
Jiang Chen followed the merchant ship all the way eastward, went up the Yellow River from Hanzhong, passed through Tongguan, and after a few days of marching, finally came to the outside of Hulao Pass.
Hulao Pass is connected to Songyue Mountain in the south and the Yellow River in the north. The undulating and criss-crossing mountains and ridges make it a majestic pass. Standing here, there is really a man in charge of the pass, and no one can open it.
Jiang Chen looked at this majestic pass, and felt extremely emotional.
This is an important pass in Cao Cao's territory, and it is also heavily guarded by soldiers. The person in charge of guarding here is Xiahou Dun, who is Cao Cao's confidant general.
And when Jiang Chen's merchant ships passed by here, they had to be interrogated by the soldiers.
There are many merchant ships passing by, but each of them will be detained by these soldiers for various reasons, otherwise, they will not be able to pass smoothly.
After all, the soldiers didn't have much oil and water in their hands. Those caravans who wanted to pass through here would naturally have to deduct a lot, and those merchants dared to be angry and dared not speak out.
"General, a large caravan is coming!"
Xiahoudun stood on Xiongguan Pass, looking down at the merchant ships below. Not long after, a soldier came up behind him and reported to him.
"Where is the caravan from?"
Hearing the soldier's report, Xiahou Dun frowned slightly. At this time, there must be something tricky about taking such a large caravan.
Intuition told him that this must be unusual.
"It's from Hanzhong!"
"Their caravans have come and gone recently!"
"Last time, we sent a large amount of food and money to Xuchang. We didn't dare to touch those things. After all, we have to present them to the prime minister in person!"
the soldier explained.
"Well, I'm going to search for one or two myself!"
"Since it's a caravan from Hanzhong, you don't need to be polite!"
Xiahou Dun nodded, then walked down the Xiongguan Pass, boarded a Mengchong, and headed towards the merchant ships outside the pass.
In a short while, Xiahou Dun had brought hundreds of soldiers with him, and the soldiers boarded the merchant ship where Jiang Chen was, because all the people in charge were in this merchant ship.
Here, he doesn't worry about people daring to make trouble, as long as they dare to resist, he doesn't have to be responsible for killing them directly.
Because of this, those soldiers are also confident.
Xiahou Dun was a bit greedy, which was known to many people, but he was not greedy alone, but was willing to distribute most of the spoils to the soldiers, and he only got a part of it.
In this way, the soldiers were also extremely supportive of Xiahou Dun.
They are all willing to follow him, because Xiahoudun eats meat, and they can also drink soup. As long as they stay here for a few years, they can go home and marry a wife with a good house.
And there are not many wars here. After all, Tongguan, the first major pass, is blocking them. Here, they are regarded as the second pass.
If someone can reach Hulao Pass, it means that the enemy army is strong, then Cao Cao must have received the news long ago and will send troops to reinforce them.
"My lord, those people want to check the ship!"
"It seems that a little money can't send them away, or else, just spend money to eliminate the disaster, but we can't let the lord take risks!"
Seeing Xiahou Dun's Meng Chong rushing towards them, the manager of the caravan said worriedly.
And following Jiang Chen's side, Tong Yuan, who was in charge of protecting Jiang Chen just now, also had a nervous expression on his face. He held the weapon in his hand tightly, and looked at the soldiers who came forward vigilantly.
"Don't be nervous, everyone!"
"Especially Tong Yuan, you exposed me so easily!"
"Take it easy, I'm Manager Zhang now, don't show your feet!"
"Leave everything to me!"
"Since these people are here, their appetites are not ordinary, and they regard us as winners, so I won't suffer from this. Don't worry, take it easy!"
Jiang Chen shook his head, comforting those people around him.
Those guards all pretended to be porters, etc., pretending to work around Jiang Chen, as long as Jiang Chen was in danger, they would immediately draw their guns to kill the enemy.
These are all well-trained guards, and they are all one-in-a-million existences.
"My lord, this is the first time the general is a little nervous!"
"Don't worry, the final general will guarantee that the Lord's event will not be ruined!"
"After all, the last general has traveled around the world before, and has fought against the heroes of the world. He will definitely not disappoint the lord!"
Tong Yuan nodded and quickly regained his composure.
Immediately turned him into a prodigal son and thug, holding a flagon in his hand, drinking there smartly, as if he didn't care at all.
But in fact, his body was tense, ready to explode at any moment.
As long as anyone dares to be unfavorable to Jiang Chen, he will immediately send out a thunderous blow!
Seeing this, Jiang Chen nodded in satisfaction:
"Tong Huwei's appearance like this is right, don't be too nervous, otherwise, the other party will definitely be able to see the clue!"
"To be able to guard here, you must not be an ordinary general!"
Jiang Chen nodded, and then tidied up his clothes. The inappropriate but somewhat luxurious clothes fit his image of a businessman very well.
Jiang Chen tidied up his facial expressions, and after putting on makeup, he showed a smiley expression, and at a glance, he knew that he was a veteran of the shopping mall.
This kind of change also made Tong Yuan and the others stunned. They never thought that Jiang Chen's ability to perform was far superior to them.
If it's the first time you meet him, you won't doubt his identity as a businessman.
I don't care if I dress properly, as long as I dress like a nouveau riche, I can't wait to wear gold and silver.
And with that flattering smile on his face, his slightly bowed waist, smiling a little when he sees people, and a little short when he sees people, Jiang Chen is clearly a born businessman.
"Boss on board, come quickly, my General Xiahou has something to ask!"
At this moment, Na Mengchong had already boarded the merchant ship, and countless soldiers rushed onto the merchant ship, with long spears everywhere, pointing at Jiang Chen and the others on the merchant ship.
"Several officials, the younger one is the steward of this merchant ship!"
"What do you want me to tell you if you don't laugh?"
There was a humble smile on Jiang Chen's face, and the flattering look made the soldiers immediately look down on him a bit, and they didn't regard him as a character at all.
Merchants have always been lowly occupations, and even soldiers don't give them a second glance.
"What nonsense!"
"If you tell me to get out of here quickly, if you offend my general, I'll kill you!"
A lieutenant shouted at Jiang Chen with an arrogant expression on his throat.
"Yes, little one, go right away!"
"Ask this general to lead the way!"
Jiang Chen was submissive, and didn't dare to make any resistance at all, and those people on the merchant ship also didn't dare to make any movements of resistance, they just stayed there quietly, secretly looking towards this side.
It seems to be a look of watching the fun.
"General, people have already been brought!"
"It's him, the steward of this merchant ship!"
