Three Kingdoms: The Guan Family's Rebellious Son, Long Blessing Jing Xiang

Chapter 362 Which general cannot stand such a test?

At the camp at the foot of Bameng Mountain, dozens of wooden benches for execution were set up.

A group of soldiers who lost Cuju, with powdered faces, stripped of their outer soft armor, and wearing only their middle clothes, were waiting for their unique punishment.

Standing next to each soldier were two soldiers with sticks. Zhang Fei was walking behind them, holding a whip while drunk.

A group of soldiers around were sweating anxiously, discussing one after another.

"The three generals fight like this every day? When will this fight?"

"According to me, what is it better than cuju? Who dares to compare cuju? Just don't compare..."

"The third general is not whipping the soldiers, he is clearly venting."

At this moment, a veteran stretched out his index finger and made a "shh" gesture. He reminded the recruits around him: "If you don't want to be whipped, then shut up!"

On the other hand, those soldiers who lost looked at the torture bench in front of them one by one, and bent down on it.

The "heavy" whips were slapped on their backs, and they made expressions of unbearable pain, crying for their father and mother...

The soldiers on the side couldn't bear to watch, and turned their heads away one after another, feeling like a knife was twisting their hearts.

"25, 26, 27..." The sound of Zhang Fei's whipping and the counting of the soldiers standing beside him came in an orderly manner. The initial wailing of those beaten soldiers had gradually turned into a low moan.

After several days of whipping, they communicated with each other at night. This is an exchange of experience. How to act like... how to call it realistic, they have become more and more professional.

There was even Toer on the side, clenched his fists tightly, his veins bulging... shouting, "I don't want to see these brothers suffer this, I'm going to plead with the three generals!"

At this time, the old soldier's voice chanted again, "Go, it's just an extra torture bench, and an extra round of whips!"

Zhang Bao looked at his father like this from a distance, he didn't know the reason, so he hurried forward.

"Father, stop fighting... Fight again... The soldiers' morale and fighting spirit are gone..."

However, it was Zhang Fei's extremely manic words that responded to Zhang Bao.

"When is it your son's turn to teach Lao Tzu a lesson? Are you going to learn from that Guan Jiashiro?"

Zhang Bao was stunned for a moment when he blurted out, and dared not go forward again.

On the other hand, Zhang Fei, while whipping, poured a jar full of wine into his mouth.

Only Zhang Bao was left stunned and heartbroken.

At the same time, the scene that happened at the mouth of Bameng Valley was once again reported to Zhang He's ears through the eyes of Wei Jun's scouts.

—— "Report!"

A scout quickly broke into the tent of the Chinese army in the Mengtou army stronghold in Bameng Mountain, and knelt down on one knee to report: "It's another Cuju game, and the enemy general Zhang Fei drank another three jars of wine. He looked especially drunk, and he kept beating the soldiers. While beating, he cursed and continued to drink. I think that it won't be long... Zhang Fei must be drunk and unconscious, so drunk!"

"God help me, God help me..."

Before the scouts finished speaking, the deputy general Han Hao laughed and said with emotion: "Prime Minister Cao made a surprise attack on Wuchao back then. The reason why he won a big victory is because Chunyu Qiong, the guard of Wuchao, was a drunken general. When Prime Minister Cao hit his camp, Chunyu Qiong just woke up from his drunkenness. In the end, he lost Wuchao and ruined the good situation!"

"Hahaha, today's situation is not as good as it was in the past? The thief general Zhang Fei met today is the drunken general Chunyu Qiong. Although Zhang Fei is better at martial arts and command than Chunyu Qiong, he is also a drunkard! He is also a bad-tempered and self-defeating drunkard. He was not wronged in Xuzhou back then!"

Han Hao opened his mouth like a cannonball, unable to hide his excited face.

Zhang Xi's eyes were tightly narrowed, and after listening to Han Hao's words, the corners of his mouth opened again, and he said lightly: "The plan remains unchanged, Zhang Fei must be drunk and unconscious at noon, it is a good opportunity for our great Wei Xiongbing to attack inside and outside and strangle the Shu army!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Yun did not forget to remind again, "Send flying pigeons to the two Xiahou generals in Dangkou Village, and tell them that everything is going according to plan, and let them raid the back of Zhang Fei's camp with all their strength at Sishi.

Speaking of this, Zhang He raised his head and looked at the sky through the door and window.

——"It's a moment..."

Accompanied by this murmur in his heart, Zhang Yun flicked his sleeves.

"Tell the three armies to start cooking immediately, and make a surprise attack at noon—"

Soon after Zhang He gave the order, the messenger rode around the battalions on horseback, shouting constantly:

"All officers and men listen to the order. General Zhang has an order to make meals immediately and make a surprise attack at noon!"

"Immediately make meals, raid at noon—"

...

...

Dangqu, Dangkou Village not far from Bameng Mountain.

More than [-] soldiers and horses of Cao's army gathered here, as well as more than [-] people who migrated here.

Originally they were going to be relocated to Bameng Mountain, but now that the mouth of Bameng Valley is blocked by Zhang Fei, they can't... the more than [-] Dangqu people can only temporarily settle in Dangkou Village.

Of course, if you just treat these eight thousand people as ordinary people, you would be wrong...

Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, there has been a saying in Shu - Ba has generals, and Shu has ministers.

To know…

These words are a well-known cultural landscape of the Han, Ba and Shu generations, and it is also a humanistic characteristic.

The people living in Dangqu can help King Zhaoxiang of Qin shoot white tigers in Qin Dynasty, and help Liu Bangming build plank roads to covert Chencang in Han Dynasty. Their battles are extremely tough!
"Shu Du Fu" highly praises the 豨人-"Strongness gives birth to its prescription, and rumors favor its martial arts. If you are vigorous, you will travel, and if you play, you will dance in Yu. The spirit is plagiarized in the middle age, and the world is in Yuefu."

In short, it is just a fierce horse of these Jin people, and it is no problem for one Jin person to beat ten Shu people!

In the Shu Han regime, there were many civil and military men with well-known family backgrounds, including Zhenbei General Wang Ping and Zuo General Jufu;

Cao Wei has Du Wei, the leader of the Southwest Jiao people, Pu Hu, Yuan Yue, Yang Che, Li Hei, Li Hu and others!
It can be said that in the long run, Zhang Fei and Zhang He fought for Dangqu, where they fought, and for the Zongren tribe... far from being as simple as fighting for the migrating people, what they are fighting for is an immediate combat force that cannot be ignored.

now…

Dangqu's last forward position, Cao Wei's Dangkou Village, outside the village is dusty...

Two Cao Ying generals in their 30s are riding astride their horses, imposing.

There is a big flag behind each of the two generals, which are written respectively - General Zhengxi Left Vanguard.

——General Zhengxi's right vanguard.

Corresponding to these two banners are the two nephews of Xia Houyuan, the general of Cao Wei Zhengxi, Xia Houde and Xia Houshang!

Xiahoude and Xiahoushang have the same mother, Xiahoude is the elder brother, and Xiahoushang is more powerful in martial arts.

According to the original trajectory of history, this Xia Houshang is very famous...

Because he has a good relationship with Cao Pi, his status and status have risen after Cao Pi succeeded to the throne. Coupled with his excellent military skills, he has successively served as the general who conquered the south, the governor of Jingzhou, the false festival, and the governor of the southern military...

His record includes:

——Attack the Shangyong of the Shu Kingdom and pacify the three counties and nine counties.

He even hanged and beat Zhuge Jin in the battlefield with Soochow. He is one of the most outstanding figures in Cao Wei's younger generation, and is also Xia Houyuan's extremely valued nephew.

This time Xia Houyuan sent him and his elder brother to cooperate with Zhang Yun to move the people, and he intended to let these two nephews make meritorious deeds, so as to further recommend them to Cao Cao and support them wantonly.

At this moment, Xia Houshang was riding the horse without moving.

On the contrary, his elder brother Xia Houde was a little uneasy, "Second brother, didn't you say that it's time to send troops? It seems that the time is coming, how can you still hold back the troops like this?"

Among the brothers Xiahoushang and Xiahoude.

Xia Houde is the elder brother, but he is the lieutenant general;
Xia Houshang is the younger brother and the chief general.

It is no exaggeration to say that there are now more than [-] soldiers of the Cao army in Dangkou Village, and more than [-] common people of the Cong people. Their power of life and death is all in the hands of this younger brother Xia Houshang.

"Soldiers are impermanent, water is impermanent... Brother, don't panic, you and I will wait!" Xia Houshang appeared unusually calm, squinting his eyes, and looked up at the sky from time to time.

Xia Houde questioned: "What are you waiting for? We have made an agreement with General Zhang, and when the daylily is cold..."

"Then we have to wait for General Zhang He's pigeons..." Xia Houshang looked at the sky, "General Zhang made a joint attack yesterday, but will the situation be different between yesterday and today? We have no way of knowing, brother, my order is related to the lives and deaths of tens of thousands of Wei soldiers. General Zhang is a cautious person. If there is no accident, he will definitely fly pigeons to report..."

This…

Xia Houde was a little urgent.

You know, their brothers are here to make meritorious service, so he is in a hurry to stay still for a long time!

At this moment, a flying pigeon landed from the Nine Heavens and fell into the hands of the messenger. The messenger took off the silk from the flying pigeon's leg and quickly passed it in front of Xia Houshang.

Xia Houshang hastily unfolded,

A few very concise and clear characters appeared in front of my eyes - "Everything is going according to plan!"

This was written by Zhang Yun himself, and as these big characters came into Xia Houshang's eyes, his eyes suddenly became serious and sharp: "Pass down my military order, leave 500 people to garrison the military camp, and the rest of the army will be mobilized to attack from inside and outside... Break through that Zhang Fei camp!"

Speaking of this, Xiahoushang's eyes quickly moved to Xiahoude's face, "Brother, Zhang Fei is the one we want to defeat. Now our prime minister is old, and many generals are also old. If you and I can kill Zhang Fei, this merit...is enough for my uncle to ask you and me for the title of general! The current Wei is the time to employ people, and it is also the time for you and me to become famous!"

Speaking of this, Xia Houshang's eyes were filled with sharpness in his pocket.

And his words successfully made his elder brother Xia Houde excited, "Make contributions, just now, this battle, take the lead for my brother—"

As he spoke, he roared: "The whole army obeys the order and marches quickly—at the mouth of the Bameng Valley!"

For a moment, under the Dangkou army stronghold, sand and rocks were flying, dust and smoke filled the sky... More than [-] soldiers of the Cao army launched an attack in the direction of Bameng Mountain like raging waves.

The whole legion is full of fighting spirit——

In the jungle not far away, the scout horses of the Shu Army who hid behind the clusters of trees saw this scene, looked at each other, and returned quickly.

And one mile behind the jungle, Wei Yan was lurking here with [-] soldiers and horses.

"—report!"

Wei Yan looked eagerly at the jungle in front of him, looking forward to the latest information from the jungle.

Of course, after hearing Zhang Fei's plan yesterday, he hesitated to some extent, thinking that it was a bit too taken for granted, too risky...

just in case…

The enemy troops in Dangkou did not move, or only half of them?

Then Wei Yan brought five thousand soldiers?Can it be captured?
Now, Wei Yan is still worried about this, for fear of leading troops to hide here, and spent a lot of effort... But in the end nothing was done.

——Lonely lurks!
At this time, Tan Ma quickly reported, "The Cao army in Dangkou village has been dispatched, and there are nearly 2 people... There are not many defenders in Dangkou?"

"How do you judge that Dangkou doesn't have too many defenders?" Wei Yan stretched out his hand suspiciously to twiddle his beard, and then added a question.

The scout said: "Since the enemy army left the city in large numbers, many people in the city have escaped... Cao Jun's defenders are powerless to stop it, which is enough to show..."

Before the scout could finish speaking, "Hahaha..." Wei Yan smiled, and just the scout's words made Wei Yan smile. He patted the scout's shoulder with a smile, "This battle is won, the three generals are the first, and you can also be regarded as a great contribution!"

Thinking of this...

Wei Yan unhurriedly drew his sword: "Pass down the general's order, and launch a general attack on the enemy's stronghold in half an hour! Make those Cao soldiers homeless! Let Zhang He, Xiahoude, and Xiahoushang also be homeless!"

After the order came here, Wei Yan couldn't help narrowing his eyes. Even today, he murmured in his heart: "Yide, Yide, when did you calculate so accurately? This layout is brilliant!"

clever!

To make Wei Yan, who has always thought highly of himself, say the word "Gao Ming" has proved that Zhang Fei is in Wei Yan's heart and has a very high evaluation!
...

...

"Happy, really happy, wine, bring more wine..."

Zhang Fei at the mouth of the Bameng Valley was supported by Zhang Bao back to the military tent where he was resting, while yelling that he wanted to drink. The "leather whip" around his waist was very wild and unruly holding the ground.

Everyone is glad that this Mr. Zhang has finally returned...

Now no one will be beaten.

But no one noticed that this "weapon" that Zhang Fei whipped dozens of people hundreds of times was not stained with a single drop of blood.

This "prop" doesn't seem real!
"Father, my uncle said earlier that my father was drunk, but my son still didn't believe it, but seeing it today...it's true, father, you are so drunk, you have forgotten what you told General Wei and my son yesterday, we...we still have action!"

When Zhang Bao said these words, he had already supported Zhang Fei back to the military tent, and opened his mouth while placing him on the bed.

While speaking, he especially recalled last night, when his father gave him and Wei Yan a task respectively.

Wei Yan's mission is to lurk secretly around Dangkou Village, waiting for an opportunity.

And his Zhang Bao's mission is to lead troops to ambush at the mouth of Bameng Valley, and when the enemy army is killed, give his army a surprise blow!
But now...

His father, Zhang Fei, drank non-stop early in the morning. He drank while watching Cuju. It was already three jars long.

General Wei Yan went to ambush and waited for an opportunity, but Zhang Bao... No one told him, how to ambush?
He is unfamiliar with the place, and he didn't know what to do for a while!

And what he was more worried about was that his father was in a daze now, if the enemy came to attack at this time, would it be okay?Who will be in charge?

"Oh..." Zhang Bao couldn't help sighing when he saw his father in a daze and still talking drunk, "Father, have you forgotten that you always told the child that drinking was a mistake in Xuzhou?"

When Zhang Bao uttered such a sentence, his heart was so heavy that he couldn't even understand for a moment why his uncle and Fazheng Army Master asked him to bring drinks to his father...

Isn't this, isn't it letting father make mistakes?Let him get deeper and deeper on the road of making mistakes?

Isn't this a test of the father?
Thinking of this, Zhang Bao couldn't help murmuring: "Hey, when will father be able to stand the test of this drink? Sigh..."

Zhang Bao's words were originally a complaint, but he didn't think about it. Following his words, a rough voice came out.

——"You mean me? Can't stand such a test? Hmph, which general can't stand such a test?"

Ah... Zhang Bao was stunned for a moment, and looked down subconsciously, but saw that Zhang Fei had opened his eyes at this moment, and his leopard eyes were round.

Of course, Zhang Bao is no stranger, his father usually sleeps with his eyes open, but...

"Hahaha..." A deep and restrained laugh came out of Zhang Fei's mouth. He swung his arm and punched Zhang Bao's forehead, "You boy, what can you say about your father? Is your father a drunken man?"

Uh…

Under Zhang Bao's astonished gaze, Zhang Fei sat up straight away, and quickly put on his shoes and socks.

At this time, there was a "creak", and a "creak, creak" sound came from under Zhang Fei's bed.

Zhang Fei got up quickly and pushed the bed away. Zhang Bao saw a hole.

His pupils widened, and he murmured subconsciously.

"This is?Tunnel... How could father dig a tunnel? 』

You know, digging tunnels... This is what Yuan Shao is best at. When he attacked Gongsun Zan, he fought through tunnels with great splendor.

Of course, it doesn't matter that Yuan Shao is good at burrowing attacks... What is important is that his father always pays attention to "one force to defeat ten tricks". Why would he do these "creepy tricks" and "ghost tricks"?
Isn't he always the most disdainful of these?

Before Zhang Bao could figure it out, Zhang Fei's words had already spread: "Did you really think that? Your father has been playing cuju these days, getting drunk, and not doing any serious business?"

Uh…

Before Zhang Bao could answer, Lei Tong, Zhang Fei's lieutenant general, quickly crawled out of the cave, and quickly knelt down on one knee to report to Zhang Fei: "Three generals, the enemy has moved! Zhang Yun and Han Hao are recruiting troops in the masked army village of Bameng Mountain..."

"Moved? Order soldiers?" Zhang Fei repeated it first, and then laughed quite restrainedly, "Hahaha, it's good to move, it's good to call soldiers. If that's the case, I don't need to continue acting...Drinking this wine mixed with white water these days, I feel so uncomfortable!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Fei lifted the Zhangba Snake Spear in the tent, and yelled, "Let's go..." and walked out of the tent with dragon and tiger steps.

Lei Tong reminded: "General, won't you go out of the tunnel this time?"

"It's not necessary!" Zhang Fei waved his hand quite boldly, "Today, that little Zhang Yun will be scared out of his wits by me? What secret path are you going to take?"

As he spoke, Zhang Fei strode out, Zhang Bao quickly followed, and the three of them rode their horses and could only travel less than a kilometer.

I saw...at the exit of Bameng Mountain, thousands of Liannu soldiers were ready to go...

The partial van hidden in the dark is ready to support the battlefield at any time.

Also, the soldiers who were waiting in full battle had bright eyes, as if knowing the enemy's upcoming actions, they themselves became ready to move.

It wasn't until Zhang Bao saw this scene that he realized...

——"Dad is just pretending to be drunk...Dad is so drunk...it's just...absolutely amazing! 』

On the other hand, Zhang Fei squinted his leopard eyes, staring at Cao Jun Bingyong who was ready to move on the mountain. He smiled and said to his son Zhang Bao: "Your father and I have already prepared a generous gift for that thief general Zhang Yun..."

"If he doesn't come out, I can't give this gift away!"

Yes…

Before Zhang Fei returned to Bashu, he took three thousand crossbows and one hundred vans from Mianshui Villa forcefully.

The last time Zhang He, Xiahoude, and Xiahoushang attacked the military tent here, Zhang Feishang didn't have time to use it.

Just right... this time I used it together!

The most slack enemy meets the fiercest crossbow...

This is the most dramatic contrast...

At this moment, there was only one line in Zhang Fei's eyes.

——"Child Zhang He, this time you will definitely come and go! 』

But Zhang Bao... Seeing his father's deployment and listening to his words, for a moment, he had an illusion, is this still his father?

Is this still the father who pays attention to "one force and ten meetings", always acts recklessly, and always gets drunk?
he's changed?
Why did he suddenly change?
Become so wise, so alert, and... so good at planning!
——"Dad, this is a completely new look, completely reborn! 』
