Uncle Emperor, I am really not Wolong Zhuge!
Chapter 88 Who is Liu Bei’s spy, revealed!
Chapter 88 Who is Liu Bei’s spy, revealed!
During these days, Zhuge Liang had not been in the mansion most of the time except for resting and eating.
Now, Cao Cao's army is moving south, and the nine counties of Jingxiang and Xiang will face the pressure of Cao Cao's army!
As Zhuge Ming's younger brother, although Zhuge Liang believed that he was not as talented as his elder brother, he also wanted to share the pressure on his brother's shoulders at this time.
For this reason, whenever he had free time, Zhuge Liang would patrol the city to check for leaks and fill in the gaps.
But Zhuge Liang knew very well that if he wanted to defeat Cao Cao, these alone would not be enough!
At this time, in the main hall of the Military Advisor's Mansion.
Zhuge Liang sat on the side seat and said with a thoughtful expression on his face: "Brother, now that Cao Cao is leading an army of 56 people southward, the defense of Xuchang City must be empty!"
"You can make Ma Chao rebel and rescue Ma Teng! And if Ma Teng dies because of this, Ma Chao will definitely attack Xuchang!"
Speaking of this, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but show excitement on his face.
On the other hand, Zhuge Ming laughed loudly and said: "Hahaha! I have already sent someone to give Ma Chao a letter!"
"It is estimated that Ma Chao has already sent out his troops with Xiliang's elite at this time, preparing to rescue Ma Teng!"
"Oh?!"
Zhuge Liang looked shocked and looked at Zhuge Ming with amazement in his eyes.
I didn't expect that I had been thinking about the clever solution for a long time. I thought I could relieve my brother's worries, but I didn't expect that my brother had already thought of such a crucial part.
"but……"
Zhuge Ming said this, but stopped.
"But what?"
Zhuge Liang looked at Zhuge Ming doubtfully and asked in confusion.
Zhuge Ming's eyes were slightly condensed, and a cold light suddenly burst out from his eyes, and he said in a sharp tone: "Ma Teng, you must die!!!"
"what?!!"
Zhuge Liang exclaimed, his heart was beating with fear, and he stared at Zhuge Ming closely.
Zhuge Liang couldn't figure it out. It was clear that Ma Teng was far away in Xuchang. Why was his brother so convinced that he would die?
But suddenly, Zhuge Liang seemed to remember something.
Previously, when Cao Chong died, Sun Quan and Cao Cao were both playthings in the palm of their hands, biting each other!It even caused a rift between Cao Cao and Xun Yu!
Huang Zhong once went to Nanman...
"Brother, if that's the case, what about Cao Chong's death?"
Zhuge Liang asked in shock.
But Zhuge Ming didn't hide anything. He nodded slightly and said, "Yes, I sent someone to send Silverfish to Cao Pi. Cao Pi happily accepted it and poisoned Cao Chong when Sun Quan presented the gift."
hiss~
Zhuge Liang took a breath of cold air, secretly shocked by Zhuge Ming's shocking methods.
Such a move not only makes it impossible to suspect Zhuge Ming, but also allows him to kill three birds with one stone by borrowing the help of others!
Even if this matter comes to light someday, he will not be traced.
The reason is simply the struggle for power among Cao Cao's sons! ! !
wonderful!high!ruthless! ! !
When Zhuge Liang was thinking like this, he instinctively looked at his brother Zhuge Ming.
With the pearls of wisdom in hand, we can talk and laugh happily!All the heroes in the world are in your hands!
"Brother's plan is no less than that of Chen Ping!" Zhuge Liang secretly exclaimed.
……
In the big tent of the Chinese army!
All the civil servants and military generals are listed here and are waiting for you!
On the main seat, Zhuge Ming's face was solemn and majestic.
At this time, Cao Cao's 56-strong army is heading south, and the officers and soldiers of the three armies are ready for battle.
"Report!"
All of a sudden!There was a burst of urgent shouts, and then a scout hurriedly rushed into the tent, knelt on one knee and said: "Report to the military advisor, Cao Cao's first 30 troops have entered Wancheng!"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the officers and men in the tent showed fighting intent.
They have been waiting for this day for an unknown amount of time!Although there is a huge difference in military strength between the two sides, each of them can be regarded as a tiger general in the world.
In particular, Cao Cao's previous canonization of the Five Good Generals and the Eight Tiger Cavalry inspired their determination to fight against him!
If you kill him, you will definitely achieve his immortal reputation.
For a time, the soldiers in the tent asked for orders one after another.
"Military advisor, please go to Wancheng, kill the Cao thieves and win the first victory for our army!"
Wei Yan stepped out of the ranks of generals, bowed his hands and clasped his fists.
"Military advisor, I'm going to ask for your orders, and I will dedicate General Cao Thief to the military advisor!"
Not to be outdone, Li Yan took a step forward and said.
"Prime Minister, Zilong will fight in all battles, big or small! This time Cao Cao's army is attacking, so he should send his generals there!"
Zhao Yun stepped out casually and said with fighting spirit.
"Military advisor, we also ask for orders to go and fight!"
Wenpin and others stood up one after another and asked for orders.
Zhuge Ming saw this and laughed loudly: "Okay! Okay! Hahaha!"
"Our officers and men share the same hatred of the enemy. If you generals have this fighting spirit, why worry about Cao Cao's thieves not being wiped out!!!"
Speaking of this, Zhuge Ming's eyes flashed with two gleams. He picked up the token on the table and said in a solemn voice: "Pass me to the military order and order Zhao Yun to command [-] troops and horses, command Wenpin, Wei Yan, Li Yan, Kuai Yue, Huo Jun!"
"I will join the army according to my nationality! You must guard Fancheng for fifteen days!"
After saying this, Zhuge Ming threw the token directly and handed it to Zhao Yun.
"The last general takes orders!"
Zhao Yun held the token tightly and showed fighting spirit in his eyes. Wei Yan, Wenpin and others also had firm eyes and full fighting spirit.
This time, Cao Cao carried the emperor's will and led an army of 56 southward.
Although it was the vanguard army that came to garrison in Wancheng this time, there were nearly 30 soldiers and horses!
With such a comparison of forces, one can imagine how difficult it was to guard Fancheng for fifteen days!
But even so, there was no fear in the eyes of the generals.
Even if this matter is as difficult as climbing to the sky, we must go against the sky! ! !
At the same time, Zhuge Ming picked up a token again, looked at the other generals, and said solemnly: "Guan Yu, Liu Qi, Guan Ping, Zhou Cang, Liao Hua!"
"The end is here!"
After hearing this, Guan Yu and others hurriedly stood up from the generals and looked at the military advisor with burning eyes.
"Guan Yu and Liu Qi, I appoint you two as deputy generals to command Guan Ping, Zhou Cang, Liao Hua and Jingzhou's [-] naval troops. We will move when the time comes!"
"The last general takes orders!"
As Zhuge Ming issued military orders one after another, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu and other generals also began to mobilize their troops!
Zhuge Ming slowly stood up from his seat and walked out of the Chinese military tent, looking towards the direction of Wancheng.
Today!Cao Jun went south, carrying the emperor's will, and came with an army of 56!
Such a mighty force is enough to sweep all the princes in the world!But there was no trace of fear in Zhuge Ming's eyes!
Just wave a paper fan and the world will be turbulent!
When a counselor enters the game with his own body, he can win half the game with just one move! ! !
……
at the same time!
At this moment, the entire land of Jingzhou has been under martial law!
Above the city, there are many soldiers and armors, and all the city defense equipment has been placed on the top of the city!
A famous crossbowman is scattered in the recesses of the wall, staring at the scenery outside the city, and the crossbow in his hand is also drawn to the full moon. If there is any abnormal movement, he is afraid that the opponent will be shot immediately on the spot.
Every few breaths, a group of soldiers patrolled, as if a war was coming!
On this occasion, a guard general led more than ten soldiers to come and said loudly: "Cheer up! Now Cao's army has entered Wancheng!"
"Scouts may have sneaked into the city, and anyone suspicious will be arrested immediately!"
"promise!"
Outside the city, there were dozens of scouts and sentries hiding in the hills and trees, quietly observing the surroundings.
The purpose is to be able to know the opponent's movements as soon as possible once the enemy attacks!
About half a stick of incense.
Zhuge Ming also returned to his mansion from the military camp.
Almost as soon as Zhuge Ming stepped into the mansion, the servants of the mansion hurried over and said respectfully: "Military advisor, my lord has been waiting in the lobby for a long time."
"He said there is something important to discuss with the military advisor."
"Oh?!"
When Zhuge Ming heard this, his expression moved slightly, but he couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"Could it be that... there are other changes in Cao's camp?"
Zhuge Ming muttered to himself and immediately went to the lobby to meet Liu Bei.
At this time, in the lobby.
Liu Bei kept wandering in the lobby with an anxious look on his face, restless.
The moment Zhuge Ming stepped into the lobby, Liu Bei hurried forward as if he saw the dawn.
"Military advisor, you are finally back." Liu Bei said anxiously.
"Lord, don't worry, but what happened?"
After Zhuge Ming asked Liu Bei to sit down, he asked doubtfully.
On the throne, Liu Bei frowned deeply and hesitated to speak. After some struggle, he finally said: "Military advisor, I have a close minister. I found that he actually exchanged letters with Cao Cao, and he is actually a spy."
"Oh?!"
"I wonder how the military advisor thinks this person should be dealt with!"
Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Ming and asked hesitantly.
At this time, Zhuge Ming had already understood Liu Bei's intention.
The lord Liu Bei has a reputation for benevolence, and this man is his close minister. It would be a lie to say that he has no feelings.
And since he can be a close minister, he must have been loyal before, otherwise Liu Bei would not have taken this person with him.
Now, I suddenly found out that this person was acting as a spy, so it was naturally difficult to make a decision.
After thinking about this, Zhuge Ming made a decision in his mind and slowly said: "My lord, since this person was once a close minister, I must have been loyal to my lord before!"
"But the state has national laws and the military has military regulations! If the laws are established but not implemented, the people will lose their trust; if the regulations are established by the military but are not used, the order will be lost and the body will die!"
As soon as these words came out, Liu Bei already understood the military advisor's intention!
Even if he was once a close minister of his, if he committed espionage, he would probably be punished by death.
"Military advisor, I understand!"
Liu Bei sighed and slowly stood up to leave, but was suddenly stopped by Zhuge Ming.
"Lord, wait! I have one more thing to say."
Liu Bei stopped, looked at Zhuge Ming doubtfully, and asked, "Please tell me, military advisor."
Zhuge Ming smiled slightly and comforted him: "My lord, you don't have to be like this. Since ancient times, knowing your mistakes can make a lot of improvements! There is also a saying in the army that you can make up for your mistakes!"
"Oh?!"
Liu Bei's eyes lit up, and he asked eagerly: "May I ask if the military advisor has any clever tips?"
Zhuge Ming waved his paper fan lightly and said calmly: "Cao Cao can use the ministers close to the lord to carry out spies. Why can't the lord no longer carry out counterintuitive schemes?"
After Zhuge Ming made this point, Liu Bei understood instantly and said, "Thank you so much, military advisor! I know what to do!"
Say it!Liu Bei strode away from the Military Advisor's Mansion like a meteor...
About a stick of incense.
Inside the prefect's mansion.
After Liu Bei came back from the military advisor's house, he sat on the main seat in the main hall with a majestic look and said nothing!
The soldiers guarding the left and right sides were also worried after seeing this situation.
This was the first time they had seen their lord so majestic, so majestic that it was terrifying!
next moment!
A burst of shouting suddenly came from the lobby.
"Come on!"
After the words fell, the two soldiers rushed into the lobby and bowed on one knee: "My lord."
Liu Bei looked majestic and said in a loud voice: "Send the order and order Mi Fang to come immediately!"
When the two soldiers heard this, they looked at each other, bowed their hands and said, "No!"
After the two soldiers retreated for about half an hour, Mi Fang hurried over after hearing that her lord had summoned him.
But when he just stepped into the main hall and saw Liu Bei's cold expression, his heart sank!
"Could it be that... my lord has discovered something?!"
Mi Fang walked forward anxiously, bowed and said, "Mi Fang pays homage to my lord."
"I wonder if my lord has sent me here to tell you anything important?"
When Liu Bei heard this, his eyes were full of majesty, he stared at Mi Fang and said: "Mi Fang, let me ask you, how do I treat you?!"
Mi Fang Xinzhou tensed up, cold sweat could not help but drip down her temples, and she said in a trembling tone: "Return...return to my lord, my lord treats me like a family member!"
"Mi Fang is here today only because of my lord. My lord's kindness will be hard to repay in the next life!"
As he finished speaking, Liu Bei slammed his palm down on the table and said angrily: "Okay! Then let me ask you, did you secretly record a copy of the military advisor's twelve strategies and sent it to Xuchang!! !”
As soon as these words came out, Mi Fang was so frightened that she immediately knelt down, kowtowed and said: "My lord, my lord, my lord, please calm down."
"Mi Fang realizes her mistake!"
"Humph!"
Liu Bei snorted coldly: "How I treat you, how you treat me!!!"
"I consider myself to be very kind to you, yet you do such a spy thing!!!"
When Mi Fang heard this, cold sweat had already soaked through her clothes like a heavy rain. Her face was full of regret and she said, "Mi Fang knows that she is ashamed of her lord, but I really have something to hide, so I have no choice but to do it!"
"Lord! Mi Fang's loyalty to the lord is evident. The reason why I did what I did was to protect the lord!"
"Please, my lord, please forgive me this time for the sake of my loyalty and hard work over the years!"
After saying this, Mi Fang kowtowed heavily and kept begging Liu Bei for mercy. "shut up!!!"
Liu Bei shouted angrily, stopped Mi Fang's words, and said coldly: "If you are wrong, you are wrong, there is no need to quibble!"
"Come on!"
When the words rang out, the soldiers on the left and right heard the sound and came over. Mi Fang was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground and looked at Liu Bei with tearful eyes.
On the other hand, Liu Bei didn't show any sympathy on his face. He shouted in a cold voice: "Put Mi Fang down and put her in prison!"
"promise!"
After hearing this, Mi Fang couldn't help shouting loudly when the soldiers took him away in custody: "My lord! My lord! Mi Fang has never been sorry to my lord!"
"I beg you, my lord, to understand clearly that everything I did was really just to protect your lord!!!"
Liu Bei looked at Mi Fang being taken away with a cold expression.
If the military advisor hadn't kept Mi Fang for great use, he would have immediately ordered his beheading to be shown to the public!
But now, the military advisor's counterintuitive plan still needs to be implemented!
……
Fancheng.
In the past, when Liu Bei was stationed in Xinye, Fancheng was just a small town, with only a few thousand troops stationed and a population of only tens of thousands.
But at this time, Fancheng was completely different!
Zhao Yun was wearing a white robe and silver armor, carrying a silver gun, sitting on a white horse, standing at the top of Fancheng, looking into the distance.
Under the city gate, fifty thousand elite soldiers, led by Wenpin, Wei Yan, Li Yan, and Huo Jun, filed in and entered the city one after another.
The armor choked, the war horses neighed, and the murderous intent was fierce!
Kuai Yue, dressed in cloth, sat down on a maroon horse and stood behind Zhao Yun. He was also impressed by this majestic momentum.
After Zhou Yu withdrew from Changsha and Cai Mao and Zhang Yun were given the title, Nanjun and Zhangling, controlled by the three major clans, decided to surrender to Liu Bei. Kuai Yue even moved into Liu Bei's military advisor's residence and became Zhao Yun's chief military advisor to guard Fancheng.
Kuai Yidu, a famous scholar in Jingxiang, was quite talented. When Liu Biao first arrived in Jingzhou, if Kuai Yue hadn't stepped in and eradicated the local clan traitors for him, Liu Biao would not have been able to govern Jingzhou so stably.
But at this moment, looking at the troops and horses coming from the sky and entering the city one after another, Kuai Yue not only did not feel excited at all, but became more and more nervous!
Fifty thousand soldiers and horses!
Already accounted for [-]/[-] of Jingzhou's troops!
However, if compared with Cao Cao's 56 soldiers and horses, it is nothing to mention!
After the three armies passed, what followed were grain and grass transported from Xiangyang and Jiangxia, as well as equipment for defending the city, which were continuously stored in the city.
"Fan City! It has been a hundred years and it has never been as strong as it is today!"
Zhao Yun stood with a gun in his hand, his eyes firm, and he sighed deeply.
"Most of the [-] elite soldiers have already entered the city. Wenpin is responsible for building the equipment to defend the city, and Wei Yan is responsible for the placement of soldiers and horses. Li Yan is the general steward of money and food. They are all busy performing their duties, so they have no time to come and return to the general."
Kuai Yue stood behind Zhao Yun, looking at the soldiers, horses and equipment pouring in under the city gate, and explained.
"No, since the Lord has already made arrangements, you can just follow the orders. After everything is done, we will hold a meeting to defend the city!"
Zhao Yun raised his hand without turning around, his voice was loud.
"General, this trip has a difficult mission!"
After Kuai Yue pondered for a long time, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and sighed, with a slightly pessimistic look.
Just yesterday, in the governor's mansion in Xiangyang, Liu Bei and Zhuge Ming's military advisors met with the ministers to assign strategic tasks.
All the Jingxiang generals were present. Even Guan Yu, who was guarding Jiangxia, was recalled to Xiangyang by military advisor Xingye to attend the meeting.
The task assigned to Zhao Yun is to defend Fancheng, hold back Cao Cao's army, and prevent it from advancing south!
Use 56 elite troops to stop Cao Cao's army of [-]!
Zhao Yun happily accepted the order without any hesitation!
But the generals such as Wen Pin, Wei Yan, and Li Yan who then raised troops have changed their colors!
They are also veterans who have lived through hundreds of battles, but fighting like this is still unseen and unheard of!
But they had [-] trust in their military advisor Zhuge Wende, and even more trust in their general Zhao Yun!
As for Zhao Yun, he firmly believes that Zhuge's military advisor will not make any nonsense. Since this arrangement is made, it must be implemented!
"I came here under orders, and I will fight on the front line with you and others, sharing life and death!"
"No matter whether we succeed or fail in this battle, you and I should have our names written down on bamboo sticks and passed down to future generations!"
Zhao Yun raised his head, looked at the clouds on the horizon, and said lightly.
He is full of courage and knows no fear.But when I think of Cao Cao's 56 troops and more than 50 generals who are accustomed to fighting, I can't help but feel a little uneasy, and I feel a little uneasy in my heart.
But the mission given to him by the military advisor was to stay here for fifteen days.Within fifteen days, Cao Cao will not be allowed to go south and cross the Han River.
"Within fifteen days, Fancheng has been lost, and you, Zilong, have come to see me! After fifteen days, Fancheng has fallen and Jingzhou has been lost. I am the first to blame, and it has nothing to do with you and others!"
When Zhuge Ming handed him the general seal, the resolute and courageous expression appeared in front of his eyes again at this moment.
"Even if all my [-] soldiers and horses are exhausted, I swear to live and die with Fancheng. I must hold off Cao Cao's thieves for fifteen days!"
Zhao Yun suddenly turned around, his face covered with sweat, but his eyes were shining, looking at Kuai Yue.
"Here!"
Kuai Yue was infected by Zhao Yun's pride, his expression was excited, and his eyes were filled with tears: "This is my first battle after surrendering to the lord. If I can't succeed, I will be benevolent. If I don't hold back the thief Cao for fifteen days, Kuai Yue vows not to return to Xiangyang." , I can’t see my lord!”
"Okay! With your Kuai Yidu helping me like this, if God does not destroy me, Zhao Yun, I will definitely be able to overcome all my power!"
Zhao Yun laughed loudly, and the laughter spread far away. The entire [-] elite soldiers in Fancheng looked up.The silver-armored god at the top of the city seemed to have become their spiritual leader.
Fifty thousand elite soldiers share the same hatred, forgetting fear and death.
They were united and had only one purpose: to defend Jingxiang and hold off the Cao thieves for fifteen days!
"General, I will go down to the city first, arrange the city defense, and place money, food, troops and horses."
Kuai Yue said goodbye and went down to the city tower, and together with generals Wenpin, Wei Yan and Li Yan, prepared to defend the city.
Fifteen days!
Fifty thousand versus 50!
Zhao Yun stood alone on the tower of Fancheng, with a horse and a single gun, and murmured again.
Since you have joined the army, you are not afraid of life or death.I'm afraid that I won't be able to complete the task, I won't be able to hold back Cao Jun, and I'll break the military advisor's charter...
Although Zhao Yun has great courage, he is not a foolhardy man.He understands that in this battle, success or failure will only be judged by the result, not by the number of sacrifices.
As long as he can hold off Cao's army for fifteen days, he and his generals will be killed, and all [-] soldiers and horses will be killed. It will also be a great victory!
"Counselor, lord!"
"I shall repay my service with my death, and show all my loyalty and wisdom. As for success or failure, it all depends on heaven!"
Zhao Yunyao looked in the direction of Xiangyang and murmured.
……
At this time, after seeing off Zhao Yunwen's generals, Xiangyang's generals all looked lonely and felt a great sense of farewell.
But the military orders were like mountains and could not be disobeyed, so they had no choice but to obey them.
In the big camp.
"I don't understand why the military advisor wants Zilong to die. With an army of 50, he has to hold on for fifteen days against Cao Cao's army of [-]! It's difficult! It's really difficult!"
Zhang Fei reluctantly left the prefect's mansion and returned to the main tent. He finally broke out and complained loudly.
"Zilong looks at death as if he is home, and is resolute and unafraid. With this kind of courage, I have never seen another person in the world!"
Chen Dao recalled Zhao Yun's resolute and calm expression when he received the General's Seal from the military advisor in the Prefect's Mansion just now, and he fell to the ground in admiration.
"Although there are not many soldiers and horses, the generals are already half of my army in Xiangyang! If it succeeds, it will naturally be a great joy. If there is a failure, I, Jingxiang, will lose one of my arms..."
Sun Qian frowned, worried.
Zhao Yun, Wenpin, Wei Yan, Li Yan...
Except for Guan Yu's lineage who guarded Jiangxia, half of the other generals went to Fancheng!
Military Advisor Zhuge, your plan is too scary...
He used 5 people to win 50 people, but he overpowered the Lord's nine counties of Jingxiang and Xiang!
……
Above the river, mist and rain filled the air.
At this time, the sky was already bright, and the morning light in the east slowly rose. The wisp of red clouds penetrated the fog on the river and hit the big ship, making it look dim and lifeless.
The big ship was speeding along and was already close to Jiangxia.
"Father, it's been a night and you're still here."
Guan Ping and Liao Hua walked out of the cabin and reached the deck. They saw their father Guan Yu's tall and tall body still standing at the bow of the ship.Looking into the distance.
A few feet behind him, Zhou Cang was covered in armor, holding Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue Sword in his hand. At this moment, his eyebrows and beard were covered with mist that turned into dew.
If it weren't for a pair of shining eyes that blinked from time to time, one might even think it was just a relief sculpture.
Guan Yu let out a long sigh and remained silent.
The battle is imminent!
Cao Cao's 56-strong army was marching day and night to overturn the pressure on Jingzhou.
The pressure before the war was enough to be suffocating.
Two days ago, Guan Yu received an urgent report from his military advisor and led Guan Ping, Zhou Cang, Liao Hua and others to Xiangyang to participate in the pre-war military meeting for the Battle of Jingzhou.
Each general has his or her own mission.But Guan Yu's important task still lies in Jiangxia.
"Jiangxia's [-] navy troops are my soul, Jing Xiang, and the place of life and death!"
"Nothing will happen to the [-]-strong navy. The east side of the Yangtze River is safe! Yun Chang is here to leave. You must be in charge of the troops and horses. Don't advance lightly. Everything will be done according to the instructions I gave you!"
After Zhuge Military Advisor assigned Zhao Yun's mission, he gave Guan Yu the instructions and ordered him to return to Jiangxia immediately.
"There are hundreds of thousands of naval troops in the important land of Jiangxia. The army must not be without a master. Liu Qi has few talents and cannot be put to good use. When you go, you can make him the deputy general and you the chief general. All major affairs in the army will be yours."
Zhuge's military advisor looked solemn and repeatedly told him to send him to the riverside in person before shaking hands with him and saying goodbye.
"Father, Cao Cao's 50-strong army, falsely claiming to be one million, will arrive in Jingxiang in just a few days."
Guan Ping also stayed up all night. The cold wind blowing from the river made him feel a little haggard.
"The military advisor ordered us to rush to Xiangyang at starry night, but he did not disclose the specific battle plan at all, which is puzzling. Cao's army is rushing towards us, and his troops are very fast. If we rush straight to Jiangxia, how will you and I meet the enemy?"
Although Liao Hua also participated in the meeting, like Guan Ping, he did not hear any clear instructions from the military advisor.In their view, the military advisor's decision to allow them to travel between Xiangyang and Jiangxia was simply a pretense and unnecessary move.
However, military advisors always make good calculations and never do useless things. Therefore, it is difficult to guess and unpredictable, and the deep meaning is unclear.
Guan Yu remained silent, but suddenly took out a brocade bag from his arms and held it in his palms, fearing that it would be blown away by the river wind and left in the water.
"When the military advisor said goodbye, he handed me this brocade bag and told me to open it ten days from tomorrow and act accordingly!"
Guan Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, his beard fluttered, and said slowly.
"Since we are asked to rush to Xiangyang at starry night, if there is an opportunity, face-to-face teaching would be great, why bother to make excuses and wait ten days before opening it again? The military situation is changing and unpredictable. If we insist on this, I am really afraid that we will miss the chance of fighting. .”
Guan Ping has been familiar with the art of war and strategy since he was a child. What he has always learned is to act according to the general's timing, and the general will not accept the orders of the foreign king!
Unexpectedly, the military advisor did the opposite and even planned the battle plan for the Jiangxia navy ten days later.
"What will happen in these ten days? God knows and the earth knows! It is understandable that the military advisor will give advice in a bag of tips, but it is just to keep it secret, but if you insist on this, I am afraid it is not a good strategy!"
Liao Hua's views are similar to Guan Ping's, and they both have doubts about Zhuge Ming's plan.
"You are wrong!"
"What will happen within ten days, God knows and the earth knows. There is still one person who can know, that is Military Advisor Zhuge!"
Guan Yu's expression suddenly became extremely respectful. When he mentioned military advisor, he seemed to see the god he admired most in his heart.
The generals were shocked!
Could it be that Zhuge's military advisor has really planned out all the battle situations in these ten days?But Cao Cao's 56-strong army are really at your mercy?And Jiangdong...
The situation is complex and the forces of all parties are surging.Even if military advisors are unpredictable, it would be too mysterious to say that they can control the situation of the world...
"Father, Zilong is on his way to Fancheng. He is alone in the city, with neither support nor reinforcements. To stop the enemy with [-] men, the child thinks that it is like using a mantis' arm as a chariot..."
After Guan Ping put aside Jiang Xia's affairs, he suddenly remembered the military advisor's arrangements for Zilong.
Equally puzzling!
"Although Zilong is unparalleled in loyalty, bravery and courage, he is still a human being and not a god. With this move of the military master, I am afraid that Zilong will have a narrow escape from death!"
Liao Hua said worriedly.
"Although Zilong is both wise and brave, he is not an ordinary person in Cao Ying."
Zhou Cang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
"Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Xia Houdun and others are all enemies of ten thousand people. Jia Xu, Xun You and others are also counselors who plan the world and make China famous. Zilong is alone. Although he has several generals, he is not safe..."
"Zi Long……"
Zhou Cang is the most benevolent and righteous. Before he surrendered to Guan Yu, he had a battle with Zhao Yun on Mangdang Mountain and was beaten and bruised by Zhao Yun.
But since then, Zhou Cang did not know each other, but he admired Zhao Yun. Among the generals, apart from Guan Yu, the one he admired and loved the most was Zhao Zilong.Therefore, when I think of Zhao Yun's situation, I can't help but feel sad and cry.
Guan Yu silently and carefully put the brocade bag into his arms, also letting out a long sigh.
He also couldn't figure out the purpose of the military advisor's death order to Zilong in Fancheng.
As a general of the three armies, if he puts himself in his shoes, he can't even imagine that if it is not Zhao Yun who is sent to Fancheng to stop the enemy at this time, but himself.How can you lead 50 soldiers and horses to prevent [-] elite soldiers from crossing the river south!
But he still firmly believes that since the military advisor is assigned in this way, there must be a reason for doing so!
To fight a weak enemy against a strong one requires bloody battles and sacrifices!
Guan Yu suddenly turned around, grabbed the Qinglong Yanyue Sword from Zhou Cang's hand, faced the wide river, and made a false slash with the sword.
Woo!
The sword passed by with force like a dragon's roar!
"Zilong, I know you will repay the Lord with a bloody battle! I wish I could fight the enemy side by side with you!"
Guan Yu tightly grasped the handle of the Qinglong Yanyue Sword and stared into the distance.
The vast and distant river surface is the direction of Fancheng!
When Cao Cao went south, Fancheng was the first to bear the brunt.
"Zilong, you must hold on!"
Guan Yu thought silently in his heart, the tenderness of a tough man can only be hidden in his heart.
But all the generals knew it in their hearts.
This battle will be Zhao Yun's most powerful battle in the world!
……
Xiangyang, Military Advisor's Mansion.
Zhuge Liang packed his bags and prepared to set off for Chaisang.
Suddenly, Zhuge Liang raised his head and saw a figure entering the military advisor's residence.
Zhuge Liang's eyes widened and he exclaimed: "Why are you here!"
(End of this chapter)
During these days, Zhuge Liang had not been in the mansion most of the time except for resting and eating.
Now, Cao Cao's army is moving south, and the nine counties of Jingxiang and Xiang will face the pressure of Cao Cao's army!
As Zhuge Ming's younger brother, although Zhuge Liang believed that he was not as talented as his elder brother, he also wanted to share the pressure on his brother's shoulders at this time.
For this reason, whenever he had free time, Zhuge Liang would patrol the city to check for leaks and fill in the gaps.
But Zhuge Liang knew very well that if he wanted to defeat Cao Cao, these alone would not be enough!
At this time, in the main hall of the Military Advisor's Mansion.
Zhuge Liang sat on the side seat and said with a thoughtful expression on his face: "Brother, now that Cao Cao is leading an army of 56 people southward, the defense of Xuchang City must be empty!"
"You can make Ma Chao rebel and rescue Ma Teng! And if Ma Teng dies because of this, Ma Chao will definitely attack Xuchang!"
Speaking of this, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but show excitement on his face.
On the other hand, Zhuge Ming laughed loudly and said: "Hahaha! I have already sent someone to give Ma Chao a letter!"
"It is estimated that Ma Chao has already sent out his troops with Xiliang's elite at this time, preparing to rescue Ma Teng!"
"Oh?!"
Zhuge Liang looked shocked and looked at Zhuge Ming with amazement in his eyes.
I didn't expect that I had been thinking about the clever solution for a long time. I thought I could relieve my brother's worries, but I didn't expect that my brother had already thought of such a crucial part.
"but……"
Zhuge Ming said this, but stopped.
"But what?"
Zhuge Liang looked at Zhuge Ming doubtfully and asked in confusion.
Zhuge Ming's eyes were slightly condensed, and a cold light suddenly burst out from his eyes, and he said in a sharp tone: "Ma Teng, you must die!!!"
"what?!!"
Zhuge Liang exclaimed, his heart was beating with fear, and he stared at Zhuge Ming closely.
Zhuge Liang couldn't figure it out. It was clear that Ma Teng was far away in Xuchang. Why was his brother so convinced that he would die?
But suddenly, Zhuge Liang seemed to remember something.
Previously, when Cao Chong died, Sun Quan and Cao Cao were both playthings in the palm of their hands, biting each other!It even caused a rift between Cao Cao and Xun Yu!
Huang Zhong once went to Nanman...
"Brother, if that's the case, what about Cao Chong's death?"
Zhuge Liang asked in shock.
But Zhuge Ming didn't hide anything. He nodded slightly and said, "Yes, I sent someone to send Silverfish to Cao Pi. Cao Pi happily accepted it and poisoned Cao Chong when Sun Quan presented the gift."
hiss~
Zhuge Liang took a breath of cold air, secretly shocked by Zhuge Ming's shocking methods.
Such a move not only makes it impossible to suspect Zhuge Ming, but also allows him to kill three birds with one stone by borrowing the help of others!
Even if this matter comes to light someday, he will not be traced.
The reason is simply the struggle for power among Cao Cao's sons! ! !
wonderful!high!ruthless! ! !
When Zhuge Liang was thinking like this, he instinctively looked at his brother Zhuge Ming.
With the pearls of wisdom in hand, we can talk and laugh happily!All the heroes in the world are in your hands!
"Brother's plan is no less than that of Chen Ping!" Zhuge Liang secretly exclaimed.
……
In the big tent of the Chinese army!
All the civil servants and military generals are listed here and are waiting for you!
On the main seat, Zhuge Ming's face was solemn and majestic.
At this time, Cao Cao's 56-strong army is heading south, and the officers and soldiers of the three armies are ready for battle.
"Report!"
All of a sudden!There was a burst of urgent shouts, and then a scout hurriedly rushed into the tent, knelt on one knee and said: "Report to the military advisor, Cao Cao's first 30 troops have entered Wancheng!"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the officers and men in the tent showed fighting intent.
They have been waiting for this day for an unknown amount of time!Although there is a huge difference in military strength between the two sides, each of them can be regarded as a tiger general in the world.
In particular, Cao Cao's previous canonization of the Five Good Generals and the Eight Tiger Cavalry inspired their determination to fight against him!
If you kill him, you will definitely achieve his immortal reputation.
For a time, the soldiers in the tent asked for orders one after another.
"Military advisor, please go to Wancheng, kill the Cao thieves and win the first victory for our army!"
Wei Yan stepped out of the ranks of generals, bowed his hands and clasped his fists.
"Military advisor, I'm going to ask for your orders, and I will dedicate General Cao Thief to the military advisor!"
Not to be outdone, Li Yan took a step forward and said.
"Prime Minister, Zilong will fight in all battles, big or small! This time Cao Cao's army is attacking, so he should send his generals there!"
Zhao Yun stepped out casually and said with fighting spirit.
"Military advisor, we also ask for orders to go and fight!"
Wenpin and others stood up one after another and asked for orders.
Zhuge Ming saw this and laughed loudly: "Okay! Okay! Hahaha!"
"Our officers and men share the same hatred of the enemy. If you generals have this fighting spirit, why worry about Cao Cao's thieves not being wiped out!!!"
Speaking of this, Zhuge Ming's eyes flashed with two gleams. He picked up the token on the table and said in a solemn voice: "Pass me to the military order and order Zhao Yun to command [-] troops and horses, command Wenpin, Wei Yan, Li Yan, Kuai Yue, Huo Jun!"
"I will join the army according to my nationality! You must guard Fancheng for fifteen days!"
After saying this, Zhuge Ming threw the token directly and handed it to Zhao Yun.
"The last general takes orders!"
Zhao Yun held the token tightly and showed fighting spirit in his eyes. Wei Yan, Wenpin and others also had firm eyes and full fighting spirit.
This time, Cao Cao carried the emperor's will and led an army of 56 southward.
Although it was the vanguard army that came to garrison in Wancheng this time, there were nearly 30 soldiers and horses!
With such a comparison of forces, one can imagine how difficult it was to guard Fancheng for fifteen days!
But even so, there was no fear in the eyes of the generals.
Even if this matter is as difficult as climbing to the sky, we must go against the sky! ! !
At the same time, Zhuge Ming picked up a token again, looked at the other generals, and said solemnly: "Guan Yu, Liu Qi, Guan Ping, Zhou Cang, Liao Hua!"
"The end is here!"
After hearing this, Guan Yu and others hurriedly stood up from the generals and looked at the military advisor with burning eyes.
"Guan Yu and Liu Qi, I appoint you two as deputy generals to command Guan Ping, Zhou Cang, Liao Hua and Jingzhou's [-] naval troops. We will move when the time comes!"
"The last general takes orders!"
As Zhuge Ming issued military orders one after another, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu and other generals also began to mobilize their troops!
Zhuge Ming slowly stood up from his seat and walked out of the Chinese military tent, looking towards the direction of Wancheng.
Today!Cao Jun went south, carrying the emperor's will, and came with an army of 56!
Such a mighty force is enough to sweep all the princes in the world!But there was no trace of fear in Zhuge Ming's eyes!
Just wave a paper fan and the world will be turbulent!
When a counselor enters the game with his own body, he can win half the game with just one move! ! !
……
at the same time!
At this moment, the entire land of Jingzhou has been under martial law!
Above the city, there are many soldiers and armors, and all the city defense equipment has been placed on the top of the city!
A famous crossbowman is scattered in the recesses of the wall, staring at the scenery outside the city, and the crossbow in his hand is also drawn to the full moon. If there is any abnormal movement, he is afraid that the opponent will be shot immediately on the spot.
Every few breaths, a group of soldiers patrolled, as if a war was coming!
On this occasion, a guard general led more than ten soldiers to come and said loudly: "Cheer up! Now Cao's army has entered Wancheng!"
"Scouts may have sneaked into the city, and anyone suspicious will be arrested immediately!"
"promise!"
Outside the city, there were dozens of scouts and sentries hiding in the hills and trees, quietly observing the surroundings.
The purpose is to be able to know the opponent's movements as soon as possible once the enemy attacks!
About half a stick of incense.
Zhuge Ming also returned to his mansion from the military camp.
Almost as soon as Zhuge Ming stepped into the mansion, the servants of the mansion hurried over and said respectfully: "Military advisor, my lord has been waiting in the lobby for a long time."
"He said there is something important to discuss with the military advisor."
"Oh?!"
When Zhuge Ming heard this, his expression moved slightly, but he couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"Could it be that... there are other changes in Cao's camp?"
Zhuge Ming muttered to himself and immediately went to the lobby to meet Liu Bei.
At this time, in the lobby.
Liu Bei kept wandering in the lobby with an anxious look on his face, restless.
The moment Zhuge Ming stepped into the lobby, Liu Bei hurried forward as if he saw the dawn.
"Military advisor, you are finally back." Liu Bei said anxiously.
"Lord, don't worry, but what happened?"
After Zhuge Ming asked Liu Bei to sit down, he asked doubtfully.
On the throne, Liu Bei frowned deeply and hesitated to speak. After some struggle, he finally said: "Military advisor, I have a close minister. I found that he actually exchanged letters with Cao Cao, and he is actually a spy."
"Oh?!"
"I wonder how the military advisor thinks this person should be dealt with!"
Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Ming and asked hesitantly.
At this time, Zhuge Ming had already understood Liu Bei's intention.
The lord Liu Bei has a reputation for benevolence, and this man is his close minister. It would be a lie to say that he has no feelings.
And since he can be a close minister, he must have been loyal before, otherwise Liu Bei would not have taken this person with him.
Now, I suddenly found out that this person was acting as a spy, so it was naturally difficult to make a decision.
After thinking about this, Zhuge Ming made a decision in his mind and slowly said: "My lord, since this person was once a close minister, I must have been loyal to my lord before!"
"But the state has national laws and the military has military regulations! If the laws are established but not implemented, the people will lose their trust; if the regulations are established by the military but are not used, the order will be lost and the body will die!"
As soon as these words came out, Liu Bei already understood the military advisor's intention!
Even if he was once a close minister of his, if he committed espionage, he would probably be punished by death.
"Military advisor, I understand!"
Liu Bei sighed and slowly stood up to leave, but was suddenly stopped by Zhuge Ming.
"Lord, wait! I have one more thing to say."
Liu Bei stopped, looked at Zhuge Ming doubtfully, and asked, "Please tell me, military advisor."
Zhuge Ming smiled slightly and comforted him: "My lord, you don't have to be like this. Since ancient times, knowing your mistakes can make a lot of improvements! There is also a saying in the army that you can make up for your mistakes!"
"Oh?!"
Liu Bei's eyes lit up, and he asked eagerly: "May I ask if the military advisor has any clever tips?"
Zhuge Ming waved his paper fan lightly and said calmly: "Cao Cao can use the ministers close to the lord to carry out spies. Why can't the lord no longer carry out counterintuitive schemes?"
After Zhuge Ming made this point, Liu Bei understood instantly and said, "Thank you so much, military advisor! I know what to do!"
Say it!Liu Bei strode away from the Military Advisor's Mansion like a meteor...
About a stick of incense.
Inside the prefect's mansion.
After Liu Bei came back from the military advisor's house, he sat on the main seat in the main hall with a majestic look and said nothing!
The soldiers guarding the left and right sides were also worried after seeing this situation.
This was the first time they had seen their lord so majestic, so majestic that it was terrifying!
next moment!
A burst of shouting suddenly came from the lobby.
"Come on!"
After the words fell, the two soldiers rushed into the lobby and bowed on one knee: "My lord."
Liu Bei looked majestic and said in a loud voice: "Send the order and order Mi Fang to come immediately!"
When the two soldiers heard this, they looked at each other, bowed their hands and said, "No!"
After the two soldiers retreated for about half an hour, Mi Fang hurried over after hearing that her lord had summoned him.
But when he just stepped into the main hall and saw Liu Bei's cold expression, his heart sank!
"Could it be that... my lord has discovered something?!"
Mi Fang walked forward anxiously, bowed and said, "Mi Fang pays homage to my lord."
"I wonder if my lord has sent me here to tell you anything important?"
When Liu Bei heard this, his eyes were full of majesty, he stared at Mi Fang and said: "Mi Fang, let me ask you, how do I treat you?!"
Mi Fang Xinzhou tensed up, cold sweat could not help but drip down her temples, and she said in a trembling tone: "Return...return to my lord, my lord treats me like a family member!"
"Mi Fang is here today only because of my lord. My lord's kindness will be hard to repay in the next life!"
As he finished speaking, Liu Bei slammed his palm down on the table and said angrily: "Okay! Then let me ask you, did you secretly record a copy of the military advisor's twelve strategies and sent it to Xuchang!! !”
As soon as these words came out, Mi Fang was so frightened that she immediately knelt down, kowtowed and said: "My lord, my lord, my lord, please calm down."
"Mi Fang realizes her mistake!"
"Humph!"
Liu Bei snorted coldly: "How I treat you, how you treat me!!!"
"I consider myself to be very kind to you, yet you do such a spy thing!!!"
When Mi Fang heard this, cold sweat had already soaked through her clothes like a heavy rain. Her face was full of regret and she said, "Mi Fang knows that she is ashamed of her lord, but I really have something to hide, so I have no choice but to do it!"
"Lord! Mi Fang's loyalty to the lord is evident. The reason why I did what I did was to protect the lord!"
"Please, my lord, please forgive me this time for the sake of my loyalty and hard work over the years!"
After saying this, Mi Fang kowtowed heavily and kept begging Liu Bei for mercy. "shut up!!!"
Liu Bei shouted angrily, stopped Mi Fang's words, and said coldly: "If you are wrong, you are wrong, there is no need to quibble!"
"Come on!"
When the words rang out, the soldiers on the left and right heard the sound and came over. Mi Fang was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground and looked at Liu Bei with tearful eyes.
On the other hand, Liu Bei didn't show any sympathy on his face. He shouted in a cold voice: "Put Mi Fang down and put her in prison!"
"promise!"
After hearing this, Mi Fang couldn't help shouting loudly when the soldiers took him away in custody: "My lord! My lord! Mi Fang has never been sorry to my lord!"
"I beg you, my lord, to understand clearly that everything I did was really just to protect your lord!!!"
Liu Bei looked at Mi Fang being taken away with a cold expression.
If the military advisor hadn't kept Mi Fang for great use, he would have immediately ordered his beheading to be shown to the public!
But now, the military advisor's counterintuitive plan still needs to be implemented!
……
Fancheng.
In the past, when Liu Bei was stationed in Xinye, Fancheng was just a small town, with only a few thousand troops stationed and a population of only tens of thousands.
But at this time, Fancheng was completely different!
Zhao Yun was wearing a white robe and silver armor, carrying a silver gun, sitting on a white horse, standing at the top of Fancheng, looking into the distance.
Under the city gate, fifty thousand elite soldiers, led by Wenpin, Wei Yan, Li Yan, and Huo Jun, filed in and entered the city one after another.
The armor choked, the war horses neighed, and the murderous intent was fierce!
Kuai Yue, dressed in cloth, sat down on a maroon horse and stood behind Zhao Yun. He was also impressed by this majestic momentum.
After Zhou Yu withdrew from Changsha and Cai Mao and Zhang Yun were given the title, Nanjun and Zhangling, controlled by the three major clans, decided to surrender to Liu Bei. Kuai Yue even moved into Liu Bei's military advisor's residence and became Zhao Yun's chief military advisor to guard Fancheng.
Kuai Yidu, a famous scholar in Jingxiang, was quite talented. When Liu Biao first arrived in Jingzhou, if Kuai Yue hadn't stepped in and eradicated the local clan traitors for him, Liu Biao would not have been able to govern Jingzhou so stably.
But at this moment, looking at the troops and horses coming from the sky and entering the city one after another, Kuai Yue not only did not feel excited at all, but became more and more nervous!
Fifty thousand soldiers and horses!
Already accounted for [-]/[-] of Jingzhou's troops!
However, if compared with Cao Cao's 56 soldiers and horses, it is nothing to mention!
After the three armies passed, what followed were grain and grass transported from Xiangyang and Jiangxia, as well as equipment for defending the city, which were continuously stored in the city.
"Fan City! It has been a hundred years and it has never been as strong as it is today!"
Zhao Yun stood with a gun in his hand, his eyes firm, and he sighed deeply.
"Most of the [-] elite soldiers have already entered the city. Wenpin is responsible for building the equipment to defend the city, and Wei Yan is responsible for the placement of soldiers and horses. Li Yan is the general steward of money and food. They are all busy performing their duties, so they have no time to come and return to the general."
Kuai Yue stood behind Zhao Yun, looking at the soldiers, horses and equipment pouring in under the city gate, and explained.
"No, since the Lord has already made arrangements, you can just follow the orders. After everything is done, we will hold a meeting to defend the city!"
Zhao Yun raised his hand without turning around, his voice was loud.
"General, this trip has a difficult mission!"
After Kuai Yue pondered for a long time, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and sighed, with a slightly pessimistic look.
Just yesterday, in the governor's mansion in Xiangyang, Liu Bei and Zhuge Ming's military advisors met with the ministers to assign strategic tasks.
All the Jingxiang generals were present. Even Guan Yu, who was guarding Jiangxia, was recalled to Xiangyang by military advisor Xingye to attend the meeting.
The task assigned to Zhao Yun is to defend Fancheng, hold back Cao Cao's army, and prevent it from advancing south!
Use 56 elite troops to stop Cao Cao's army of [-]!
Zhao Yun happily accepted the order without any hesitation!
But the generals such as Wen Pin, Wei Yan, and Li Yan who then raised troops have changed their colors!
They are also veterans who have lived through hundreds of battles, but fighting like this is still unseen and unheard of!
But they had [-] trust in their military advisor Zhuge Wende, and even more trust in their general Zhao Yun!
As for Zhao Yun, he firmly believes that Zhuge's military advisor will not make any nonsense. Since this arrangement is made, it must be implemented!
"I came here under orders, and I will fight on the front line with you and others, sharing life and death!"
"No matter whether we succeed or fail in this battle, you and I should have our names written down on bamboo sticks and passed down to future generations!"
Zhao Yun raised his head, looked at the clouds on the horizon, and said lightly.
He is full of courage and knows no fear.But when I think of Cao Cao's 56 troops and more than 50 generals who are accustomed to fighting, I can't help but feel a little uneasy, and I feel a little uneasy in my heart.
But the mission given to him by the military advisor was to stay here for fifteen days.Within fifteen days, Cao Cao will not be allowed to go south and cross the Han River.
"Within fifteen days, Fancheng has been lost, and you, Zilong, have come to see me! After fifteen days, Fancheng has fallen and Jingzhou has been lost. I am the first to blame, and it has nothing to do with you and others!"
When Zhuge Ming handed him the general seal, the resolute and courageous expression appeared in front of his eyes again at this moment.
"Even if all my [-] soldiers and horses are exhausted, I swear to live and die with Fancheng. I must hold off Cao Cao's thieves for fifteen days!"
Zhao Yun suddenly turned around, his face covered with sweat, but his eyes were shining, looking at Kuai Yue.
"Here!"
Kuai Yue was infected by Zhao Yun's pride, his expression was excited, and his eyes were filled with tears: "This is my first battle after surrendering to the lord. If I can't succeed, I will be benevolent. If I don't hold back the thief Cao for fifteen days, Kuai Yue vows not to return to Xiangyang." , I can’t see my lord!”
"Okay! With your Kuai Yidu helping me like this, if God does not destroy me, Zhao Yun, I will definitely be able to overcome all my power!"
Zhao Yun laughed loudly, and the laughter spread far away. The entire [-] elite soldiers in Fancheng looked up.The silver-armored god at the top of the city seemed to have become their spiritual leader.
Fifty thousand elite soldiers share the same hatred, forgetting fear and death.
They were united and had only one purpose: to defend Jingxiang and hold off the Cao thieves for fifteen days!
"General, I will go down to the city first, arrange the city defense, and place money, food, troops and horses."
Kuai Yue said goodbye and went down to the city tower, and together with generals Wenpin, Wei Yan and Li Yan, prepared to defend the city.
Fifteen days!
Fifty thousand versus 50!
Zhao Yun stood alone on the tower of Fancheng, with a horse and a single gun, and murmured again.
Since you have joined the army, you are not afraid of life or death.I'm afraid that I won't be able to complete the task, I won't be able to hold back Cao Jun, and I'll break the military advisor's charter...
Although Zhao Yun has great courage, he is not a foolhardy man.He understands that in this battle, success or failure will only be judged by the result, not by the number of sacrifices.
As long as he can hold off Cao's army for fifteen days, he and his generals will be killed, and all [-] soldiers and horses will be killed. It will also be a great victory!
"Counselor, lord!"
"I shall repay my service with my death, and show all my loyalty and wisdom. As for success or failure, it all depends on heaven!"
Zhao Yunyao looked in the direction of Xiangyang and murmured.
……
At this time, after seeing off Zhao Yunwen's generals, Xiangyang's generals all looked lonely and felt a great sense of farewell.
But the military orders were like mountains and could not be disobeyed, so they had no choice but to obey them.
In the big camp.
"I don't understand why the military advisor wants Zilong to die. With an army of 50, he has to hold on for fifteen days against Cao Cao's army of [-]! It's difficult! It's really difficult!"
Zhang Fei reluctantly left the prefect's mansion and returned to the main tent. He finally broke out and complained loudly.
"Zilong looks at death as if he is home, and is resolute and unafraid. With this kind of courage, I have never seen another person in the world!"
Chen Dao recalled Zhao Yun's resolute and calm expression when he received the General's Seal from the military advisor in the Prefect's Mansion just now, and he fell to the ground in admiration.
"Although there are not many soldiers and horses, the generals are already half of my army in Xiangyang! If it succeeds, it will naturally be a great joy. If there is a failure, I, Jingxiang, will lose one of my arms..."
Sun Qian frowned, worried.
Zhao Yun, Wenpin, Wei Yan, Li Yan...
Except for Guan Yu's lineage who guarded Jiangxia, half of the other generals went to Fancheng!
Military Advisor Zhuge, your plan is too scary...
He used 5 people to win 50 people, but he overpowered the Lord's nine counties of Jingxiang and Xiang!
……
Above the river, mist and rain filled the air.
At this time, the sky was already bright, and the morning light in the east slowly rose. The wisp of red clouds penetrated the fog on the river and hit the big ship, making it look dim and lifeless.
The big ship was speeding along and was already close to Jiangxia.
"Father, it's been a night and you're still here."
Guan Ping and Liao Hua walked out of the cabin and reached the deck. They saw their father Guan Yu's tall and tall body still standing at the bow of the ship.Looking into the distance.
A few feet behind him, Zhou Cang was covered in armor, holding Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue Sword in his hand. At this moment, his eyebrows and beard were covered with mist that turned into dew.
If it weren't for a pair of shining eyes that blinked from time to time, one might even think it was just a relief sculpture.
Guan Yu let out a long sigh and remained silent.
The battle is imminent!
Cao Cao's 56-strong army was marching day and night to overturn the pressure on Jingzhou.
The pressure before the war was enough to be suffocating.
Two days ago, Guan Yu received an urgent report from his military advisor and led Guan Ping, Zhou Cang, Liao Hua and others to Xiangyang to participate in the pre-war military meeting for the Battle of Jingzhou.
Each general has his or her own mission.But Guan Yu's important task still lies in Jiangxia.
"Jiangxia's [-] navy troops are my soul, Jing Xiang, and the place of life and death!"
"Nothing will happen to the [-]-strong navy. The east side of the Yangtze River is safe! Yun Chang is here to leave. You must be in charge of the troops and horses. Don't advance lightly. Everything will be done according to the instructions I gave you!"
After Zhuge Military Advisor assigned Zhao Yun's mission, he gave Guan Yu the instructions and ordered him to return to Jiangxia immediately.
"There are hundreds of thousands of naval troops in the important land of Jiangxia. The army must not be without a master. Liu Qi has few talents and cannot be put to good use. When you go, you can make him the deputy general and you the chief general. All major affairs in the army will be yours."
Zhuge's military advisor looked solemn and repeatedly told him to send him to the riverside in person before shaking hands with him and saying goodbye.
"Father, Cao Cao's 50-strong army, falsely claiming to be one million, will arrive in Jingxiang in just a few days."
Guan Ping also stayed up all night. The cold wind blowing from the river made him feel a little haggard.
"The military advisor ordered us to rush to Xiangyang at starry night, but he did not disclose the specific battle plan at all, which is puzzling. Cao's army is rushing towards us, and his troops are very fast. If we rush straight to Jiangxia, how will you and I meet the enemy?"
Although Liao Hua also participated in the meeting, like Guan Ping, he did not hear any clear instructions from the military advisor.In their view, the military advisor's decision to allow them to travel between Xiangyang and Jiangxia was simply a pretense and unnecessary move.
However, military advisors always make good calculations and never do useless things. Therefore, it is difficult to guess and unpredictable, and the deep meaning is unclear.
Guan Yu remained silent, but suddenly took out a brocade bag from his arms and held it in his palms, fearing that it would be blown away by the river wind and left in the water.
"When the military advisor said goodbye, he handed me this brocade bag and told me to open it ten days from tomorrow and act accordingly!"
Guan Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, his beard fluttered, and said slowly.
"Since we are asked to rush to Xiangyang at starry night, if there is an opportunity, face-to-face teaching would be great, why bother to make excuses and wait ten days before opening it again? The military situation is changing and unpredictable. If we insist on this, I am really afraid that we will miss the chance of fighting. .”
Guan Ping has been familiar with the art of war and strategy since he was a child. What he has always learned is to act according to the general's timing, and the general will not accept the orders of the foreign king!
Unexpectedly, the military advisor did the opposite and even planned the battle plan for the Jiangxia navy ten days later.
"What will happen in these ten days? God knows and the earth knows! It is understandable that the military advisor will give advice in a bag of tips, but it is just to keep it secret, but if you insist on this, I am afraid it is not a good strategy!"
Liao Hua's views are similar to Guan Ping's, and they both have doubts about Zhuge Ming's plan.
"You are wrong!"
"What will happen within ten days, God knows and the earth knows. There is still one person who can know, that is Military Advisor Zhuge!"
Guan Yu's expression suddenly became extremely respectful. When he mentioned military advisor, he seemed to see the god he admired most in his heart.
The generals were shocked!
Could it be that Zhuge's military advisor has really planned out all the battle situations in these ten days?But Cao Cao's 56-strong army are really at your mercy?And Jiangdong...
The situation is complex and the forces of all parties are surging.Even if military advisors are unpredictable, it would be too mysterious to say that they can control the situation of the world...
"Father, Zilong is on his way to Fancheng. He is alone in the city, with neither support nor reinforcements. To stop the enemy with [-] men, the child thinks that it is like using a mantis' arm as a chariot..."
After Guan Ping put aside Jiang Xia's affairs, he suddenly remembered the military advisor's arrangements for Zilong.
Equally puzzling!
"Although Zilong is unparalleled in loyalty, bravery and courage, he is still a human being and not a god. With this move of the military master, I am afraid that Zilong will have a narrow escape from death!"
Liao Hua said worriedly.
"Although Zilong is both wise and brave, he is not an ordinary person in Cao Ying."
Zhou Cang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
"Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Xia Houdun and others are all enemies of ten thousand people. Jia Xu, Xun You and others are also counselors who plan the world and make China famous. Zilong is alone. Although he has several generals, he is not safe..."
"Zi Long……"
Zhou Cang is the most benevolent and righteous. Before he surrendered to Guan Yu, he had a battle with Zhao Yun on Mangdang Mountain and was beaten and bruised by Zhao Yun.
But since then, Zhou Cang did not know each other, but he admired Zhao Yun. Among the generals, apart from Guan Yu, the one he admired and loved the most was Zhao Zilong.Therefore, when I think of Zhao Yun's situation, I can't help but feel sad and cry.
Guan Yu silently and carefully put the brocade bag into his arms, also letting out a long sigh.
He also couldn't figure out the purpose of the military advisor's death order to Zilong in Fancheng.
As a general of the three armies, if he puts himself in his shoes, he can't even imagine that if it is not Zhao Yun who is sent to Fancheng to stop the enemy at this time, but himself.How can you lead 50 soldiers and horses to prevent [-] elite soldiers from crossing the river south!
But he still firmly believes that since the military advisor is assigned in this way, there must be a reason for doing so!
To fight a weak enemy against a strong one requires bloody battles and sacrifices!
Guan Yu suddenly turned around, grabbed the Qinglong Yanyue Sword from Zhou Cang's hand, faced the wide river, and made a false slash with the sword.
Woo!
The sword passed by with force like a dragon's roar!
"Zilong, I know you will repay the Lord with a bloody battle! I wish I could fight the enemy side by side with you!"
Guan Yu tightly grasped the handle of the Qinglong Yanyue Sword and stared into the distance.
The vast and distant river surface is the direction of Fancheng!
When Cao Cao went south, Fancheng was the first to bear the brunt.
"Zilong, you must hold on!"
Guan Yu thought silently in his heart, the tenderness of a tough man can only be hidden in his heart.
But all the generals knew it in their hearts.
This battle will be Zhao Yun's most powerful battle in the world!
……
