The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 570 569 The Burning Yangtze River (9)

As soon as Zhang Fei finished speaking, Fazheng and Xiang Lang burst out laughing, and then Xiang Lang said to Fazheng, "Xiaozhi, are you satisfied with General Zhang's answer?"

Fazheng nodded heavily, and said: "General Zhang is determined, and I have no doubts. But, as I said just now, Jingzhou is not a place where kings and hegemons can be achieved. If Generals Guan and General Zhang Just for revenge, I can temporarily go to Jingnan to help you avenge. If General Guan and General Zhang want to inherit the will of General Liu and achieve a hegemony, I advise you to choose another place. Jingzhou is the place of the Fourth World War. It cannot be used as a long-term guarded place, and it may hardly become a hegemony."

After listening to the conversation between the two men, Zhang Fei was confused for a while, and hurriedly asked: "You two gentlemen, what are you talking about? Why are you laughing?"

Xiang Lang hurriedly explained: "General Zhang, what you said just now is Xiao Zhi's test for the general. He is afraid that the general will not be firm, so he wants to test it. Fortunately, the general will be firm, even if he knows that the future is long He may fail, and he is unwilling to let go of that fetter. This is what Xiaozhi appreciates. So the general passed Xiaozhi's test, which means that Xiaozhi is going to Jingnan to help the general."

"Mr. Fa, is that really the case?" Zhang Feixi asked with a smile.

Fazheng nodded, and said to Zhang Fei: "General Zhang, as I said just now, are you and General Guan just to avenge General Liu, or do you want to inherit General Liu's will and make a career of dominance?" Come?"

Zhang Fei didn't even think about it, and said immediately: "Avenging the elder brother is just one of them. If we are really lucky enough to inherit the will of the elder brother, we are naturally willing to make a breakthrough."

Fazheng laughed and said: "That's easy. If the general wants to become a king, there is no need to stay in Jingnan. After avenging General Liu, he can lead the army to the west with General Guan. Come in, come to Yizhou. Although the land of Shu is far away, it is the place where you can become a king. Liu Zhang is weak and doesn’t know how to use people. Yizhou is full of talents. Xiaozhi is willing to help the two generals take Yizhou as a foundation, and then look for opportunities to fight for the world."

"Liu Zhang has owned Yizhou for many years, how can he seize it overnight? Besides, I led the army into Yizhou, isn't it obvious that I want to attack Yizhou? When Mr. Xiang and I came, the road to Shu was difficult. The degree is unforgettable in this lifetime, as long as Liu Zhang sends hundreds of people to hold the pass, we will not be able to pass, so how can we capture Yizhou?" Zhang Fei said.

Fazheng said: "These are all things to say later, let's not mention them for the time being, if General Guan and General Zhang really want to seize Yizhou, I will have a way for you to lead the army and enter Yizhou in a legitimate way without any penalty. Block!"

"Really?" Zhang Fei asked suspiciously.

"If Xiao Zhi has the slightest falsehood, he is willing to be punished by thunder and lightning!" Fazheng swore.

"I believe Mr. Fa's words, but Mr. Fa is currently working in Jiangzhou, how should he tell Prefect Yan to leave here temporarily?" Zhang Fei said.

Fazheng said: "This is my business. General Zhang doesn't need to worry about it. When is General Zhang going to leave?"

"Of course, the sooner the better." Zhang Fei said.

Fazheng thought for a moment, then said to Zhang Fei: "It's getting late today, why don't we rest here for a while, and we can leave tomorrow. I'm going to bid farewell to Prefect Yan, and we'll go on the road together tomorrow morning. "

"Okay! Then we've made a deal." Zhang Fei said excitedly.

Fazheng nodded, and said, "Then Xiaozhi will take his leave first, and we will meet outside the city gate at Chenshi tomorrow!"

After finishing speaking, Fazheng left, and Zhang Fei and Xiang Lang personally sent Fazheng out.

After Fazheng went back, he immediately found Yan Yan, the prefect of Berkshire, asked Yan Yan for a period of time off, and told Yan Yan that Xiang Lang was his distant relative. There is a marriage contract, and he is asked to fulfill the marriage contract. Fazheng doesn't like this marriage, so he must go back and explain it to Xiang Lang and the others.

Yan Yan is also a person who understands. Hearing what Fazheng said, she allowed Fazheng to take a vacation, and let Fazheng take care of these things before returning.

So, early the next morning, Zhang Fei, Xiang Lang, and Fazheng gathered outside the county seat, and the three of them set out on the road together and began to return to Wuling.

When they came, Zhang Fei and Xiang Lang took many detours because they didn’t know the way. This time they went back, because they had the law, so they walked very smoothly, and they no longer took land, but should take water , along the Yangtze River, all the way down the river, you can reach Wuling in two or three days.

Three days later, Zhang Fei, Xiang Lang, and Fazheng arrived in Wuling County. When the three of them returned to Linyuan City, Zhang Fei received the news from the prefect of Wuling Jinxuan. He once sent someone to contact Zhang Fei and left a letter, but Zhang Fei was not there at the time, so Jin Xuan accepted the letter and waited for Zhang Fei's return.

This time, Jin Xuan handed Guan Yu's letter to Zhang Fei. After Zhang Fei opened it, he took a quick look and said hastily, "Oh, I almost delayed the important event..."

Then, Zhang Fei asked directly: "Did the second brother send anyone over?"

Jin Xuan said: "Later they sent someone over, saying that the general should go to Changsha as soon as he comes back. General Guan wants to have a good discussion with the general."

"It should be, it should be... such a big event must be discussed and discussed."

So Zhang Fei took Xiang Lang and Fazheng by boat to Changsha without even warming his buttocks.

Two days later, Zhang Fei, Xiang Lang, and Fazheng arrived in Changsha. Guan Yu was overjoyed when he heard that Zhang Fei had arrived. During Zhang Fei's absence, Guan Yu had been actively preparing for battle, but he did not dare to send troops easily After all, without Zhang Fei, he seems to be missing an arm.

Guan Yu greeted Zhang Fei at the gate of the city, welcomed Zhang Fei and others into the hall of the government office in Changsha, and then held a banquet, and asked Jian Yong and Chen Dao to come over.

When Zhang Fei saw Jian Yong and Chen Dao, he was also overjoyed. After talking for a while, he found out that after Liu Bei was killed, Jian Yong and Chen Dao came to Changsha after many twists and turns.But Zhang Fei always had doubts in his heart, and wanted to ask Chen Dao to clarify, but because of the presence of other people, he never asked.

In the hall, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Xiang Lang, Fazheng, Jian Yong, Chen Dao and others all sat down, and then Zhang Fei introduced Xiang Lang and Fazheng to Guan Yu and others one by one, and told Guan Yu that this time The first time I went to Shu, it was to invite Fazheng.

Guan Yu began to look at Fazheng carefully, but he saw that Fazheng was not yet 30 years old, relatively young, with an ordinary appearance, and there was nothing to impress people at first glance.He didn't understand why Zhang Fei would travel thousands of miles to Yizhou to find such a person?

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu are both Liu Bei's brotherly sworn brothers, and they are evenly matched, and they are Liu Bei's right-hand men, but there are also big differences between the two. Love, but when dealing with scholar-bureaucrats, his attitude is very arrogant.Zhang Fei likes to deal with gentlemen, but doesn't care about the soldiers around him, so Zhang Fei often whips the soldiers, which makes the soldiers very afraid of him.

When Liu Bei was around, someone often restrained the two of them, but since Liu Bei died, no one restrained Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei never reminded each other, so that Guan Yu saw Those gentry had a burst of arrogance.

At this moment, Guan Yu also showed this kind of arrogance. Seeing that Fazheng was so young, he snorted coldly and said to Zhang Fei: "Third brother, you came all the way from Yizhou to call this What Fazheng brought here, is he really as capable as you said?"

Before Zhang Fei could answer, he heard Fazheng say: "General Guan, in fact, I'm not as powerful as General Zhang said. I'm just a little resourceful, and I can't make it into the hall of elegance..."

After hearing this, Zhang Fei showed some displeasure on his face, and said to Guan Yu: "Second Brother, how can you say such a thing about Mr. Fa, Mr. Fa..."

"General Zhang, I am indeed an ignorant person, not worth mentioning at all, so you don't have to speak well of me in front of General Guan." Fazheng hastily interrupted Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei wanted to say something, but seeing Xiang Lang winking at him, Zhang Fei suppressed his displeasure and drank alone.

Afterwards, the banquet was not very pleasant. Guan Yu always looked arrogant and rude. Except for Jian Yong, Xiang Lang and Fazheng didn't pay attention to him, and he didn't like them very much. I feel that these two scribes are just in name only.

After the banquet, Zhang Fei asked Fazheng and Xiang Lang to leave here first, while he went to Chen Dao and asked Chen Dao whether Liu Bei had sent someone to assassinate Liu Biao.

Chen Dao told Zhang Fei that there was no such thing at all, and that Liu Qi had deliberately framed it. After Zhang Fei heard this, he hated Liu Qi even more.And now, Jingzhou has also changed hands. If Zhang Fei cared about something before, Zhang Fei doesn't have to worry about anything now.

After Zhang Fei left, Chen Dao went to Guan Yu's room and said to Guan Yu, "Second Master, I have already followed what you said, and Third Master believed it."

Guan Yu said: "You did a good job. Eldest Brother sent you to assassinate Liu Qi, but by accident, you assassinated Liu Biao. This is also the oldest brother's historical data, and it is the action that Eldest Brother was forced to do. You must be sure about this matter." If you want to hide it for me, you must not let the third brother know, otherwise, according to his character, he probably won't be cruel to Jingzhou."

"Second master, third master, he shouldn't be such a person. Now that Jingzhou has changed hands, the third master doesn't care at all, right?" Chen Dao asked talkatively.

"Don't be afraid of [-], just in case. By the way, those two scribes next to the third brother, I have to work hard for you. Look up their backgrounds for me and what they usually say. I need to have enough understanding of them. .” Guan Yu said.

"Yes, Second Master, if there is nothing else, I will resign first!" Chen Dao said.

"Go."
