C24 Captive

Seeing Zuo Feng leave, the smile on Lu Zhi's face also disappeared quite a bit as he said in a deep voice, "Regret! Zuo Feng is narrow-minded. You have offended him today, so you must be extra careful. My current appearance is a former example! " As he spoke, Lu Zhi did not forget to shake the iron lock on his body.

Luo Yang didn't care at all. It had only been four to five years since the ten regular servants entered the capital. By then, Zuo Feng would have probably become a ghost under the sword. How could he still deal with Luo Yang? Luo Yang remembered his purpose for coming here, and quickly said to Lu Zhi: "Master Lu! It was impossible for the soldiers to continue causing a ruckus outside County Governor Manor! Master, what do you think we should do? "

Luo Yang also brought up the matter, and the carefree look on Lu Zhi's face when facing Zuo Feng no longer remained. He shook his head and said, "I also know about this matter, when Zuo Feng came to ask me just now, I didn't agree, and I also didn't want to let this little guy, Zuo Feng, get his way! The army's main task is to annihilate the bandits, how can they start an internal conflict here because of me? Forget it, we can't let this matter of the country get ruined just because of me! Let me go with you to County Governor Manor's entrance. This old face of mine should be able to play a role! "

Since Lu Zhi was willing to come forward, then naturally there wouldn't be any problems. Luo Yang quickly cupped his hands together and gestured for Lu Zhi to come forward, then led him out of the meeting room. Just as they were leaving the hall, Luo Yang glanced at the soldiers guarding the door and realized that they did not have any intention of stopping Lu Zhi. However, after thinking about it, he immediately understood that Zuo Feng was not a fool. Knowing that he was there, Lu Zhi would never give in, which was why he pretended to be angry and left. In fact, Zuo Feng should have known long ago that Luo Yang was here to persuade Lu Zhi, and he even instructed these guards to let Lu Zhi in and out.

Although Lu Zhi was only a civil servant, his prestige in the military was still very high. When they saw Lu Zhi appear at the entrance of County Governor Manor, the noisy soldiers immediately quietened down. Seeing that Lu Zhi had such an effect, Luo Yang heaved a sigh of relief. At least there shouldn't be any problems here. Immediately, Luo Yang patted Huang Zhong's shoulder, indicating that he would leave it to him. Then, he quietly left County Governor Manor.

Since this matter with Lu Zhi had already disrupted Lou Yang's previous arrangements, he had to hurry up and regroup with Wen Ju and the others. He had to seize the time to save the prisoners of the Yellow Gown Army. If he waited for Dong Zhuo to officially take over the army, then it would be much more difficult to save those captives from that demon king Dong Zhuo!

Hiding his worries in his heart, Luo Yang did not hesitate and quickly walked towards the city gate that he and Wen Pian had agreed to meet. About an hour later, Luo Yang saw the three people waiting for him at the city gate from afar. He couldn't help but increase his speed and rush to their side. Seeing that Luo Yang had arrived, Wen Jing and the others revealed relaxed expressions. Wen Hou hurriedly asked: "Master, how is it? Is everything all right? "

Luo Yang was also unwilling to talk about those things. He waved his hand to indicate that there was nothing else, and said: "Alright! Let's hurry up and go! " After saying that, he led the three of them out of the city. The place where the prisoners of the Yellow Gown Army was originally located outside of the city walls of Nanyang City. There were simply too many of these hundred thousand prisoners of the Yellow Gown Army.

Fortunately, the military camp wasn't too far away from Nanyang City. They had traveled for nearly an hour before they finally arrived. However, when Luo Yang and the other two arrived, they were stunned by Jing Jing inside the camp. There wasn't even a single person in the huge camp, it was completely empty.

"What, what, what is this?" Luo Yang stared at the empty military camp, completely at a loss. "Why is there not a single person left? Where was he? "Where did everyone go?"

Luo Yang was anxious, as were Liu Fei and Gong Du who were following behind him. They were hoping wholeheartedly that Luo Yang would be able to save those brothers of theirs! But now, they didn't even know where the person went, let alone how to save him! Gong Du said worriedly, "Sir, could you have remembered wrongly? That person isn't locked up here? "

"Impossible!" Before Luo Yang could reply, Wen Ju shouted, "I brought Master Lu here that day and saw him arrange those captives here with my own eyes! Even if the captives are not here, the soldiers stationed in the barracks should still be there, they can't possibly be as empty as they are now! "

Luo Yang also nodded and said, "That's right! It is indeed here! " With that, Luo Yang walked into the military camp and half-knelt down. He put one of his hands on the ground and gently rubbed it. On the ground, there were still some messy footprints left behind. With his many years of scouting experience, Luo Yang was sure that it wouldn't take more than three hours, and there were still a lot of people standing here.

Since Luo Yang and Wen Ju had already said so, Liu Fei and Gong were no longer in doubt. Liu Ping frowned and said, "If that's the case, then where are the other people going?"

Luo Yang slowly stood up. He had no way to answer Liu Ping's question. 100,000 prisoners was not a small number, and at this time, it was not suitable to arrange them anywhere. This was the most suitable place, and Luo Yang could not figure out where to take them.

"Who's in front?" Just as they were at a loss, a loud shout suddenly came from behind them. Luo Yang and the others quickly turned around and saw more than ten soldiers at the entrance of the military camp. However, when Luo Yang turned around, the soldiers recognized him and hurriedly saluted him, "This little one greets Lord Luo!"

Luo Yang looked at the soldiers carefully and confirmed that they were all from Nan Yang City. Then, he waved his hand and said, "Alright! Get up! I have something to ask you! Are you all in charge of guarding this place? "Then where are all the captives in this military camp?"

One of the soldiers who looked like the leader stood up, took a step forward and cupped his fists towards Luo Yang: "Reporting to the lord! Under the orders of the reinforcements from Luoyang, all the captives were taken away! We are only responsible for guarding the military camp, and the ones responsible for guarding the captives are all reinforcements. Naturally, we have to listen to the new commander! "

New commander? Dong Zhuo! Luo Yang was shocked and remembered what Huang Zhong said before. That Dong Zhuo said he had to go through some procedures, so why did he come here? And he even took away the hundred thousand prisoners of the Yellow Gown Army! Luo Yang suddenly had a bad feeling and immediately asked, "Do you know where they went?"

Seeing that Luo Yang's expression wasn't right, the soldiers didn't dare to hesitate and hurriedly pointed in the same direction and said in unison, "Let's go that way!" After receiving the answer, Luo Yang immediately ran towards the direction the soldier was pointing at without a second word. Wen Jing, Liu Ping, and Gong were all confused by Luo Yang's actions, but he still followed closely behind.

Following the directions pointed out by the soldiers, Dong Zhuo brought the hundred thousand prisoners to the outskirts of the city. This made Luo Yang even more uncertain. The chaos in County Governor Manor had not been resolved yet. Why was Dong Zhuo stirring up so many prisoners? Luo Yang prayed repeatedly that things wouldn't go as he had guessed, or else he really wouldn't know what to do!

"Sir!" Look ahead! " Just as Luo Yang was on his way, a loud warning suddenly came from behind him. Luo Yang instinctively raised his head and saw a mountain range in front of him. "At the entrance of the valley, a large group of black shadows appeared. It seemed like a large group of people were rushing towards them. However, they were still quite a distance away from Luo Yang, so Luo Yang was unable to see them clearly.

Although he didn't know where they came from, Luo Yang didn't dare to let his guard down. He immediately stopped and pulled Wen Hou and the other two to the side to hide. Coincidentally, there was a small forest nearby. Luo Yang brought the trio to hide in that small forest. The four of them hid in the forest, quietly waiting. That group of people moved very fast, and before long, they had arrived at the place where Luo Yang and the rest were.

Heavy horse hooves and footsteps came from the ground. Luo Yang could even feel the slight tremors in the ground and could not help but feel shocked. This was definitely a highly trained army! Putting everything aside, just from the killing intent emitted by these black armored soldiers while they were marching, it could be seen that this army's quality could be said to be the strongest Luo Yang had ever seen since the era!

"Big!" "Ugh!" The eyes of Wen Fu, who was standing beside Luo Yang, lit up as he subconsciously shouted out. Luo Yang was quick enough to cover Luo Yang's mouth with his hand. Although he had only shouted out one word, Luo Yang still broke out in a cold sweat. Immediately after that, there was a sharp piercing sound and Luo Yang immediately felt that something was wrong. Immediately, they both fell to the ground together!

"Pah!" A muffled sound rang out as an arrow suddenly appeared. It hit the spot where Wen Ju had been at, directly piercing through the tree behind him! Seeing the quivering arrows, fear began to appear in Wen Fu's heart. Luo Yang and the other two were also terrified! The soldiers did not even bother to ask as the arrow was simply too terrifying!

Luo Yang quickly made a silent gesture to the others, hinting them not to make any noise. Then, he turned around and just laid on the ground, not moving at all. He was closely watching the movements of the army outside.
