In the spring of February, it was warm and cold.
The Yellow River, which has been frozen all winter, has not yet melted, and the people who fled are shuttling through the thick river without worrying about the ice breaking and falling into the river.
A fierce cold wind swept in from the north, carrying snow foam and brushing the ground, rolling up a lot of yellow dry grass in the air, refusing to fall.
Just a few days ago, Xiahoudun, the vanguard general of Cao's army, led 30,000 troops to cross the Yellow River and march to the county seat of Huaixian County, Hanoi County.
Zhang Yang, who was afraid of Ran Min's bravery and surrendered, rebelled, and turned against and killed Sima Ju, the Hanoi Taishou appointed by Ran Min, and Yu Yigen, the commander of the Black Mountain Army, and returned to Cao Cao.
Xun You, a staff officer of the army, offered a plan to surrender by deception, and Xiahoudun left Lejin to rectify Hanoi, and he led Wang Yanzhang, Dian Wei and Zhang Yang to march at night to attack the Tianqian Huguan in the south of the state.
The general of the pot guard has not yet learned the news of Zhang Yang's rebellion, and the door is easily opened and closed.
Cao Bing rushed in and easily took Huguan, and the soldiers pointed directly at Shangdang County. and sent people to Xuchang to urge Cao Cao to lead a large army across the river.
Cao Cao learned the news of taking Huguan, so he left Cao Ren, Xiahou Yuan, Li Dian, and Cheng Yu to guard the rear, and he led Xu Chu, Yu Ban, Cao Hong, Cao Chun, Xi Zhicai and other civil and military forces to raise an army of 50,000 to cross the Yellow River in the starry night and approach Huguan.
On the way to the march, Guo Jia, a native of Yingchuan Yangzhai, came to join the army, and Cao Cao talked with him until late at night, and he hated each other, Cao Cao stroked Guo Jia's shoulder and praised it repeatedly: "Cao has filial piety, such as Gaozu has the ovary, and King Wen has Jiang Shang, why can't he achieve a hegemony this time to the north, he will capture Ran Min alive and deter the princes" Ran Min learned in Taiyuan County that Huguan had been lost and Cao Cao's army was pressing, and personally led a coalition of 100,000 troops composed of the Black Mountain Army and the Baibo Army to leave Jinyang and go south to Shangdang.
The generals of the accompanying army included Liu Shi, Lei Gong, Zheng Gu, Guo Damu, Zhang Baiqi, Bai Rao and others, as well as Han Xian and Li Le, the commanders of the Baibo Army.
The war in Bingzhou was about to break out, so the people of Shangdang and Hanoi went south to avoid the war, helping the old and the young, all the way to the south, taking advantage of the Yellow River before the thaw, into the Luoyang area to escape the war.
The sky is obscure, and the cold spring breeze blows people who can't open their eyes.
The fleeing people were in a hurry, but there was a clear eyebrow on the thick river, and a graceful woman, accompanied by a servant, went against the flow of people and went all the way to the north.
"Ahem little lady, the whole state is at war, Cao Gong has led nearly 100,000 troops to Hanoi, and the Montenegrin army is also catching strong men everywhere.
Everyone is running for their lives in the south, why is the lady going north instead?"
An enthusiastic old man with a package on his back, holding the hands of his grandson and granddaughter and Cai Yan walked head-on, and couldn't help but send out a kind reminder.
Cai Yan hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you for reminding me that the little girl is not going to Hanoi on this trip, let alone going to the party, after crossing the Yellow River from here, the little girl will go all the way west and turn to Hedong County."
Excuse me, my husband, where there is no war?"
The old man shook his head: "I don't know the situation over there, the forces of the Black Mountain Army have not entered Hedong, but I heard that the Huns have made a lot of trouble."
These days, the imperial court is fighting with the Xiliang soldiers, and General Cao is fighting with Ran Min again, and it is estimated that the bearded dogs entrenched in the Xihe area are even more rampant.
The little lady has to be extra careful along the way."
"Thank you for the reminder" Cai Yan thanked the old man repeatedly, and instructed the maid next to him to take out a few pieces of dough and cured meat from the package and give them to the old man's grandson and granddaughter to thank him for the reminder just now.
The old man's family also thanked him repeatedly, happily accepted, and continued to walk on the slippery ice and headed south.
Dong Zhuo died a few days ago, and Cai Yong wept at the banquet because he was grateful for Dong Zhuo's kindness. provoked the general Yang Su to be furious, and ordered Cai Yong to be put in prison for questioning, his wife, concubines, and children were all taken into custody, and all family property and land were confiscated.
There were Cai Yong's students in Yang Su's house, and he hurriedly revealed the news to Cai's family, and Cai Yan hurriedly fled with his maid and escaped the catastrophe.
The rest of the siblings were not so lucky, and they were all arrested and thrown into prison.
The family property was confiscated, relatives were imprisoned, and he was also arrested by posting a notice offering a reward, Cai Yan found out that the huge Henan had no place for himself.
In desperation, he had to take his servant to the north, planning to cross the Yellow River and go to the east of the river to join the former in-law Wei clan.
Three years ago, Cai Yan's husband Wei Zhongdao died of illness, and after being widowed in the Wei family for half a year, Cai Yan returned to her parents' home in Luoyang.
Although there is no longer a marriage relationship, Cai Yan feels that the Wei family is a Hedong Wang family, and her husband had a very close relationship with her when she was alive, and she thought that the Wei family would take care of the old relationship and take her in for a while.
Other than that, there is no way out After listening to the old man's words, the maid became hesitant, lowered her head and said: "Lady, or we won't go, I heard that Hu Gou is cruel and ruthless, robbed women and tortured them to death, and all kinds of means are outrageous, I feel that my scalp is numb when I think about it."
"Xing'er, if you don't go to Hedong, where can you go, is there still a way for you and my master and servant to live in the whole of Henan?"
Cai Yan swept off her hair that was messy by the spring breeze, took the package from the handmaid, and walked carefully on the ice, although her steps were slow, but every step was extremely firm, "The coiling is almost exhausted, and the dry food can last for three or five days, if we don't rush to the Wei family early, we will starve to death sooner or later."
The maid could only stubbornly follow behind: "But what if I am caught by the Huns, Xing'er is only fourteen years old this year, and I haven't married yet."
Cai Yan kindly stroked the maid's head: "Xing'er, don't worry, go to the Yellow River, walk for two or three days to Hedong County Governor's Office."
The city there has high walls and thick walls, there are officers and soldiers stationed there, and the guards are the Hedong clan, so they will be safe after entering the city.
Besides, the Huns only plundered, never attacked cities."
Hearing Cai Yan's encouragement, Xing'er became a little more courageous, raised her head and prepared to continue her journey, when she suddenly saw a cloud of black dots sweeping in the north with dust flying in the north At first, it was just an ant-like black spot, but gradually it became bigger and bigger, clustered into clusters, and the swept dust became clearer and clearer, reaching up to the sky, like a yellow dragon.
The sound of horses' hooves in the storm became clearer and clearer, the earth shook and the ice on the river shook up and down.
The refugees who went south from Bingzhou were sparse all the way, stretching for three or four miles, and there were at least more than a thousand people, who were frightened by the sudden change at this moment, and stopped one by one.
Raising his eyes to the west, he guessed with anxiety where this was the people and horses that came "Maybe it's the Xiliang Iron Cavalry who fought with the imperial court."
"Look at this scale, it should be the cavalry of Xiliang, you see how fast the horses are running, the cavalry of the Central Plains can't do this" "Didn't most of the Xiliang soldiers retreat to Chang'an, how could they come from the west, aren't they Huns?"
"Huns" "It's really the Huns, oh my God, run for your life" The sharp-eyed person among the refugees was the first to let out an exclamation, and the other refugees suddenly woke up like a dream, and suddenly exploded into a pot of porridge, crying father and mother, calling for children and daughters on the river surface one after another, a crying sound.
It's just that the ice on the surface of the river is as smooth as a mirror, and if you walk carefully, you will accidentally slip, and the frightened refugees will accelerate and run, and suddenly like dumplings, they will fall to the ground with a thunderbolt.

The cries of young children, the screams of women, and the cries of men are intertwined, like boiling water.
"The lady is here for the Huns, and the Hugou is really here."
Seeing clearly that it was the Hun cavalry sweeping in, the fourteen-year-old Xing'er was almost frightened silly, her mouth was wide open, and the cool breeze poured into her stomach, looking like a dumbfounded chicken.
"Apricot go quickly, don't be stupid" Cai Yan was also shocked, pulled Xing'er's hand, turned around and walked south.
As he walked, he complained in his heart: "The court is incompetent, the princes are fighting among themselves, and the Huns are becoming more and more rampant, and at first they were only plundering in the area of the West River."
Two years ago, he stretched his tentacles into the east of the river, and now he actually ran to the edge of the Yellow River, which is only a hundred and ten miles away from Luoyang, where did the border soldiers of the Han Dynasty die, and let the Huns drive straight in?"
"Run, lady, walk so slowly" Apricot came back to her senses and was about to run wildly when she took a big stride.
Cai Yan hurriedly grabbed it: "Don't run, if you slip and fall, you can't run away, if you really can't escape, it's destiny."
Xing'er cried: "I don't want to be caught by the Huns, I don't want to be trampled by the Huns, it's better to die."
"What nonsense, follow my lady well in this troubled world, as long as I can live, it is the greatest happiness" Cai Yan grabbed the handmaid's hand tightly, and walked carefully on the ice to avoid slipping.
The sound of horses' hooves was like a torrential rain, and the Hun cavalry suddenly came.
The Huns' riding skills were really good, running wildly on the ice of the Yellow River, without slowing down at all, as if walking on the ground.
"Roar Roar" "Ahaha" The Huns were not in a hurry to arrest people, whistling and making all kinds of strange noises, making a big circle and galloping across the ice of the Yellow River.
Then he turned around and came back, blocking one or two thousand refugees who were helping the old and the young north of the Yellow River.
A Hun leader dressed as a householder, carrying a scimitar, a big horse under his crotch, speaking awkward Chinese, shouted: "Everyone turns around and goes north, and those who dare to disobey will be killed."
If you continue to go south, you will die, but if you are taken captive by the Huns, you may be worse than dead.
Dozens of men and women who were about to reach the shore jumped onto the shore with their agility and ran like crazy, trying to escape the catastrophe.
The Huns whistled, and one hundred and ten horsemen swept in, and the scimitar in their hands cut off their heads and faces, and immediately cut the flesh and blood of the refugees who had just come ashore.
"Whoever dares to run away again will end up like this" The Huns untied their spears from their horses, strung four or five freshly cut off heads on the barrels of their guns, and terrorized the devastated refugees with their bloody heads.
