Cao Thief

Chapter 638 Gathering Wind and Clouds in the South (23)

Yang Fen said that he should take the initiative!
Wei Yan believed that he could defend Ye County independently.

Dianman and Xu Yi are also eager to try, wanting to compete with Liu Bei.

Cao Peng also wanted to...

However, he has many concerns.

It is different from the situation in Hexi.In Hexi, he just hit Hongze without any psychological burden.But in Nanyang, he had to consider all aspects.To fight, how to fight?How can we take care of the face of the Jingxiang family while fighting.

this is a big problem.

For several days, Cao Peng was thinking about this matter.

He originally wanted to go to Jia Xu to discuss things, but he didn't want Jia Xu to be ordered to return to Xudu to discuss things with Xun Yu, so he was not in Nanyang for the time being.

As a result, there are not many people that Cao Peng can discuss with.

Neither Du Ji nor Lu Yu is enough to discuss the overall situation with him.

When Cao Peng was thinking about the solution, he didn't want a sudden change, which made him sigh with emotion that the world is impermanent...

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In the middle of May of the 12th year of Jian'an, Deng Zhi served as the Jiyang order for more than two months.

In the past two months, with the help of Cen Shao and Deng Di, coupled with Du Ji leaving the town of Nine Girls City, Deng Zhi gradually controlled Jiyang.

Since he was born in Dengcun, he did not encounter much rejection.

If it is said that Deng Wei and others made troubles before, Deng Zhi felt a huge resistance.Then after Deng Wei's death, the clan house was replaced by Deng Dee, which reduced Deng Zhi's pressure.The farming season has passed, Deng Zhi took office, and began to intensify efforts to dig canals.

At the same time absorb refugees and reclaim wasteland.

In the past two months, it has achieved great results...

But the problem is that the growth of Jiyang is not in Liu Bei's interest.

And Guan Ping, who was stationed in Nieyang, was even more dissatisfied.Back then, Guan Ping was a prisoner of Cao Peng's class, and he had a lot of grievances with Cao Peng.Now, Cao Peng is in Nanyang County.Because Guan Ping was stationed in Nieyang, he was unable to conflict with Cao Peng, so he shifted his goal to Jiyang.Because the distance between the two sides is too close, separated only by Jishui, many conflicts have arisen and many conflicts have arisen.

Deng Zhi is an extremely tough master at heart!

After Guan Ping provoked him several times, he was also very angry.Therefore, Deng Zhi ordered Fu Xun to step up patrols on the east bank of Jishui to resist Nie Yang's behavior of fishing across the border.However, due to the constraints of Liu Bei and Cao Peng, although the two sides had frequent conflicts, they still maintained restraint.

On this day, Jiyang soldiers and horses patrolled the east bank of Jishui, and gathered when they passed south.

It's a gathering in the south, and everyone is no stranger to it.It is the ferry connecting Thornyang and Nirvana, so the two sides often conflict here.

Originally, Jiyang's soldiers and horses were ready to leave after patrolling the Nanjiuju East Bank Ferry.

Unexpectedly, a group of soldiers and horses suddenly appeared from the other side of the river. Judging by the attire, it was the attire of Liu Beijun.The leader is a young general, who looks about fourteen or five years old.Wearing a parrot-green battle robe, with a face like a jujube, crouching silkworm eyebrows, and red phoenix eyes, she is quite majestic.

The young general had a green horse under his crotch, with a big knife hanging from the saddle.

When he saw the Jiyang soldiers and horses on the east bank, he suddenly bent his bow and set an arrow, and shot an arrow on the other side of the river.

Du Bo, who led the Jiyang soldiers and horses to patrol the east bank of Jishui, was named Fu He, 16 years old, and Fu Xi's cousin.Although he is not as good at running an army as Fu Xun, he is known for his bravery.With a horse under his crotch and a gun in his palm, he can kill generals and capture the flag.Originally, Fu Yan got Fu Xun's advice and didn't intend to cause trouble.Unexpectedly, this sudden arrow from the opponent's young general hit Fu Yan's mount under the crotch.Fu Yan was unprepared, and after the horse was hit by an arrow, he fell off the horse all at once.The fall made Fu Yan dizzy, and suddenly flew into a rage.

"Give me an arrow!"

Fu Yan ordered angrily.

The Jiyang soldiers and horses and the Nieyang soldiers and horses are also used to shooting across the water on weekdays.

Therefore, when Nieyang soldiers and horses appeared, they subconsciously prepared to fight back.

Under Fu Yan's order, Jiyang's patrol soldiers hardly hesitated. Without saying a word, they rushed to the ferry and shot arrows at Nieyang's soldiers and horses.

Fu Yan even took off a three-stone hard bow, and rushed to the ferry without making a sound.

But at this time, the young general Nieyang on the opposite side did not dodge, pulled out his big knife, dialed the eagle feathers, and at the same time ordered the Nieyang patrols to shoot arrows towards the opposite bank.It has to be said that the sword technique of this young general Nieyang is really astonishing.He straddled the horse, the big knife flew up and down, and the sword cloud rolled.The arrows shot by the Jiyang Patrol could not hit this young general.Fu Yan was in the crowd, drawing his bow and nodding his arrows, squatting behind the young general, he shot straight arrows.Fu Yan's archery has been practiced hard.Although it can't be a sharp shot, it can penetrate Yang with a hundred steps, but it can also hit nine out of ten.Jishui is not too wide, and Fu Yan's bow is a three-stone iron tire bow, which has amazing lethality within 150 steps.

He is good at archery, with six arrows in a row.

And the young general didn't care about the Jiyang soldiers on the opposite side, he was laughing wildly.

Unexpectedly, six consecutive arrows arrived in front of him like lightning.Huge force, really that young general's hands were numb... He couldn't help being taken aback, and his heart suddenly flustered.But Fu Yan's continuous arrows came one after another.Coupled with the ferocious arrows of the Jiyang soldiers and horses on the other side of the river, the young general was a little overwhelmed.He wanted to pull his horse back, but Fu Yan's continuous arrows refused to let him go.Just listen to poof, poof, poof...

The young general knocked three consecutive arrows into the air, but he couldn't dodge the arrows behind him.

He was hit by three arrows in a row, screamed, fell off his horse, and died of exhaustion.

When the soldiers and horses of Nieyang saw it, they were shocked.

"The little general was hit by an arrow, the little general was hit by an arrow..."

A group of soldiers swarmed up and snatched the young general back from the ferry.

Fu Yan didn't care when he saw Nieyang's soldiers and horses retreating.These days, it's not uncommon to see such water shootouts, often with casualties.Therefore, he didn't take it seriously, and left directly with his men and horses, continuing to patrol.Returning to the barracks at night, when Fu Xun asked him, Fu Xun only said that there was a small conflict with the Nieyang soldiers and horses at Nanjiuju Ferry, and there were casualties.

Similarly, Fu Xun didn't take it to heart...

so common!

In the past two months, the two sides have shot at each other at least a dozen times.There were even real fires fired twice, and large-scale mutual shooting conflicts took place.

Casualties happen from time to time.

But whether it is Jiyang or Nirvana, they have maintained great restraint.

Fu Xun didn't even report this matter to Deng Zhi, and directly dealt with ordinary conflicts.

However, what Fu Xun didn't expect was that just because of Fu Yan's arrow, it directly caused turmoil in the entire Nanyang County...

Nieyang, Fu Ya.

Guan Ping was sitting in the hall, reading "Spring and Autumn" with great interest.

People in Lao Guan's family seem to like reading "Spring and Autumn".Guan Yu came from a humble background and did not read too many books in his early years.After getting acquainted with Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, he often felt inferior.Needless to say, Liu Bei is a clan member of the Han Dynasty, and he was taught by a famous family. He once studied under Lu Zhi's family.No matter whether he likes luxury or doesn't want to work hard, when he speaks, he is eloquent and can quote classics, which is enviable.

And what about Zhang Fei?

In the Romance, it is said that he is a butcher in Zhuojun.

But actually?
Zhang Fei's talent and learning are even a few chips higher than Liu Bei's.

Zhang Fei's family is not small. Although it is not considered a wealthy family, it is also a big local family with a lot of books in the family.Zhang Fei himself is good at calligraphy and painting. Although he has a bad temper, he has a good literary talent.Even Xun Chen has to praise his calligraphy, and his paintings of ladies are even more lifelike.In contrast, Guan Yu seemed too vulgar.So he came up with the idea of ​​reading... He is literate and has a good foundation.So Liu Bei selected a copy of "Spring and Autumn" from Zhang Fei's collection of books and gave it to Guan Yu, which has fascinated Guan Yu ever since.

In addition, the children of the Guan family have the habit of reading "Spring and Autumn" after their enlightenment.

Guan Ping is even more obsessed with "Spring and Autumn" than Guan Yu.I always carry a copy of "Spring and Autumn" with me, and when I have nothing to do, I take it out and flip through a few copies.This day, the sun was shining and the weather was not too hot.It was rare for Guan Ping to relax, so he picked up "Spring and Autumn" and read it again.

Just as he was reading with relish, he suddenly heard a commotion outside the house.

Guan Ping frowned, got up and walked out of the study, and said with a worried look on his face: "Who is making noise outside?"

"Eldest son, big things are not good, big things are not good!"

Guan Ping was startled, then asked: "What happened?"

"Second Young Master, Second Young Master, he..."

Guan Ping couldn't help but thumped in his heart, he quickly jumped down the doorstep and grabbed the butler, "What's wrong with him, little brother?"

"Second Young Master, he's dead!"

As soon as the word "dead" entered Guan Ping's ears, it was like a thunderbolt, shaking his head in a daze, and his ears buzzed continuously.

Guan Yu has two sons and a daughter.

The eldest son is Guan Ping.

However, God knows why he was mentioned as Guan Yu's adopted son in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".In fact, Guan Ping was Guan Yu's own son.Guan Ping was born when Guan Yu was still in Xie County.Later, Guan Yu escaped from Jie County because of killing the local tyrants, and wandered in all directions.Guan Ping's mother took Guan Ping with her, and also left her hometown to avoid disaster.It was not until Guan Ping was ten years old that father and son met again.But because he neglected the best age to practice martial arts, he failed to get Guan Yu's true biography.When Guan Yu and his son met each other, Guan Ping's mother had passed away.

Later, when Liu Bei was Prime Minister of Pingyuan, Guan Yu took a house in the local area and gave birth to a second son, named Guan Xing.

Guan Xingnian is 14 years old. He has practiced martial arts since he was a child.

After Cao Peng took office, Guan Yu worried that Wancheng was in danger, so he sent Guan Xing to Nieyang.After all, although Nieyang is separated from Jiyang by water, it is relatively safe.The main reason is that Jiyang doesn't have too many outstanding characters, so Guan Xing is in Nieyang, and Guan Yu is more at ease.Originally, Guan Ping planned to arrange for Guan Xing to be a soldier and let him stay in the city.Unexpectedly, Guan Xing is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and he is unwilling to stay behind obediently.After discussing with Guan Yu, he was asked to lead patrols to patrol the county.

This was originally a very safe thing, but I didn't expect...

Although Guan Ping and Guan Xing are half-brothers, they are very close brothers.

Upon hearing the news of Guan Xing's death, Guan Ping was stunned.

It took a long time for him to react, grabbed the butler by the collar of his clothes, and roared sharply: "Little brother, how did you get killed?"
