In the summer night sky, stars are twinkling, and a crescent moon hangs in the air, illuminating the earth.

The heat of heat in the air makes people feel indescribable dullness, and the cry of insects in the grass around them makes people feel even more upset.

Because the summer night comes late, Ma Yuan and others who had already had a meal and gathered to wait for action after the sunset, were even more impatient at this time.

"Boss, it's almost the second update. We can act, right?" Ma Yuan looked at Han Tao who had been sitting next to him and closed his eyes to rest, and couldn't help but urge him.

"What's the hurry? Jing Sheng hasn't come back yet, wait!" Han Tao responded calmly.

As soon as the sky got dark, he sent Liu Biao out and then waited quietly for his news.

"Boss, Liu Biao has been here for so long and hasn't come back. Nothing will happen, right? He is not our own, so don't..."

After all, Ma Yuan’s duty as a Shadow Messenger is to identify the loyalty of his subordinates, which gives him a unique sensitivity and reminds Han Tao.

"If he is unreliable, he has to wait until now? Be calm and restless." Han Tao still maintained his calmness and trust in Liu Biao.

From the moment Liu Biao ran quickly for hundreds of miles to deliver letters to him, Han Tao had absolute confidence in Liu Biao.

While the two were talking, footsteps came from outside. The Black Armored Army, who was in charge of the guard, reported: "Lord, Liu Biao is back."

Then, the door opened and Liu Biao walked in with a big pocket on his back.

He put his pocket on the ground and gasped: "Mr. Concubine, what you want has been retrieved. In order not to attract the attention of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, he delayed some time."

Han Tao hurriedly comforted: "It's okay, Jingsheng, thank you for your hard work. You just said, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are back?"

"Yes, Yuan Shao has taken over all matters in the General's Mansion, and he seems to be a general who is giving orders." Liu Biao answered Han Tao's question.

"Well, He Jin and He Miao are dead. Yuan Shao must have wanted to take the opportunity to take the lead. It's no surprise. Are there any movements they have?"

Han Tao was not surprised at all about Yuan Shao's behavior. He was very fond of merit and was greedy for fame, so he cared more about Cao Cao.

From the contact after returning to Luoyang this time, Han Tao could clearly feel that Cao Cao is no longer the cavalry commander who had just left the world four years ago.

His vision and mind were becoming more and more like the hero he remembered, and he did not dare to relax at all about him.

"I heard from the people in the mansion that they had conspired with Zhang Ji and Wu Kuang in the afternoon and ordered five thousand soldiers and horses out. But no one knew where they went." Liu Biao responded to Han Tao's question.

When Han Tao heard Liu Biao say that Yuan Shao and others gathered 5,000 troops to go out, he frowned and thought.

He could feel that the other party must take very targeted actions to mobilize so many troops. So what exactly are they going to do?

After all, the summer night is relatively short, and the time left for Han Tao and others to move is limited, so he cannot let him think about it more.

"Zishan, take everyone to change their clothes quickly." Han Tao ordered Han Chong.

Han rushed forward and opened the pocket that Liu Biao brought back, which contained several sets of cloth clothes worn by soldiers from the General's Mansion.

Han Chong hurriedly took Wen Su and others to start changing his clothes.

"By the way, prince consort, when I was looking for these clothes, I found something in the warehouse. I wonder if it was related to Yuan Shao and the others' movements."

When everyone changed their clothes, Liu Biao suddenly remembered a detail and hurriedly said to Han Tao.

"What's the matter, you said?" Han Tao hurriedly asked Liu Biao. At this time, his actions must be very careful and no small links should be neglected.

"I found that the water in the clothing warehouse was gone. It is said that Yuan Shao and the others took it away when they went out." Liu Biao reported the details he found to Han Tao.

Five thousand soldiers...

Water …

Han Tao quickly started to think.

Han Chong also began to think about the conversation between Han Tao and Liu Biao and took the lead in reacting.

"Brother, it seems that our action plan needs to change. Maybe Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have found out that we were entering Luoyang through the drainage channel." Han Chong made his own judgment.

"That's right, they have prepared water and their troops now, and they should be going to the exit of the drainage channel to ambush us." Han Tao immediately realized this.

"Ah, they went to ambush us, so we can't use this method to leave the city, what should we do?" Ma Yuan asked anxiously.

Han Tao was not panicked at all and comforted Ma Yuan: "I asked Jing Sheng to prepare these clothes, not just for the convenience of going to the street."

"Since Yuan Shao and Cao Cao don't let us go out of the waterway now, then we will walk out of the city openly!" Han Tao said to everyone.

"Mr. Prince Concubine, you want to disguise yourself as a soldier from the General's Mansion and get out of the city. This may not work."

"Yuan Shao issued instructions to all the soldiers guarding the city. If you want to leave the city, you must have his token." Liu Biao hurriedly reminded Han Tao.

"I can't get this token for you now." Liu Biao's expression looked very regretful.

Han Tao smiled and patted Liu Biao on the shoulder: "It's okay, Jing Sheng, without Liu Biao's token, we can find other certificates for leaving the city. Come with me!"

Han Tao didn't say much, and called everyone who had changed their clothes to walk out.

Ma Yuan and Han Chong were already familiar with Han Tao's habits. They knew that he must have a solution, so they didn't say much and immediately followed.

Liu Biao was confused, but he didn't dare to ask too much, so he could only watch Han Tao and others leave.

...

As the third update approached the night, the streets of Luoyang became quiet again.

Because of clues from Han Tao and others, Yuan Shao and others had already arranged an ambush, and the original door-to-door search was stopped.

The Guizhou leaders in Luoyang were tossed for a day and could finally fall asleep peacefully.

In Zhang Rang's mansion, he and Zhao Zhong and several other senior servants gathered together to discuss countermeasures. A whole day passed, and there was no news from Han Tao, which made them unable to sleep at all.

Several people expressed their opinions, but no one could come up with an effective way to find Han Tao.

At this moment, the housekeeper hurried in and reported: "Dadult, someone in the General's Mansion asked for a visit."

"It's midnight, why did they come to me for? Have you found clues about Han Tao? Ask them to come in." Zhang Rang is anxious to find out Han Tao's whereabouts, and he doesn't want to miss any clues.

A moment later, several soldiers from the General's Mansion walked in and came to Zhang Rang and others.

When Zhang Rang saw that the other party was just standing blankly, but did not salute him, his face showed a dissatisfaction: "Who are you? Why are you so unceremonious? You don't even treat us and your father-in-law even if you see us..."

However, the soldiers suddenly dispersed and quickly took action, showed off their weapons, and subdued Zhang Rang and others.

Zhang Rang and others looked at the soldiers in horror, not understanding why the other party was trying to do something to him...

One of the soldiers walked out and smiled and "spoken" to Zhang Rang and others: "I've seen you all father-in-law!"
