The Shuhan Empire of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 27

Zhang Yide

Langzhong: Six days are gone in a blink of an eye. In Zhang Fei's conference hall, "Our army will be mobilized tomorrow. The purpose is to join my elder brother in front of Baidi City."

"Using Wu Ban as the front vanguard to lead the army of [-] soldiers, Liu Yong and Fan Jiang were the guards of the central army, Zhang Da and Tang Jie were the guards of the rear army, Deng Wei escorted the grain and grass, and Zhang Bao and Zhuge Qiao were the tents. Former guard" Zhang Fei announced

"General, I want to be a vanguard and make the first contribution to the army." Zhang Bao suddenly jumped out and said

"Zhang Bao obeys the command, or go home by himself." Zhang Fei cast a glance at Zhang Pao;
In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Fei gathered [-] troops from his headquarters and stood in front of the general's platform.

"Revenge, revenge,,,," the audience shouted loudly

"The people of Wu betrayed their trust and righteousness. Today we raise the banner with the word 'righteousness', wear white clothes, and raise a white flag to avenge my robes. If we don't seize Jingzhou, we will never return."

"If you don't take Jingzhou, you won't return, if you don't take Jingzhou, you won't return...

"Listen to my general order, the whole army set out!" Zhang Fei shouted the last

Along the way, [-] troops spread out for several miles, and they marched out with filial piety. The spectacular scene shocked the people along the way. "With such an army, I am a big man." An old man next to him said to himself.

Zhuge Qiao rode his previously tame horse named 'Izumo', and came to Zhang Fei's voice, "Uncle, I have a suggestion, I don't know if I should say it or not"

"Don't play tricks, just say what you have to say," Zhang Fei responded impatiently

"Could it be that after uncle arrived in Baidi City, he has been waiting for His Majesty's arrival?" Zhuge Qiao said with a smile

"Haha, it seems that Bo Song, you and I want to go together"

"Could it be that Uncle thinks that after arriving in Yong'an, we will send troops to Jingzhou as quickly as possible?"

"As expected, he is the prime minister's son, and he has the same thoughts as my old Zhang."

"The uncle is planning to attack somewhere to wait for His Majesty to arrive"

"Bring the map!" Zhang Fei shouted loudly, and a soldier behind him immediately presented the map.

"I see that you are the son of Prime Minister Zhuge, so I will give you a plan; I plan to capture here (Jianping County) first, then lead the army to capture here (Zigui), and then set up a military tent here to wait for my elder brother to arrive, and then Take the whole army and attack the interior of Jingzhou." Zhang Fei pointed to the map and said in a dignified manner
"Sure enough, he is indeed Uncle Zhang who made the enemy fearful on the battlefield. This plan will surely succeed," Zhuge Qiao said flatteringly; in fact, Zhuge Qiao also agreed with Zhang Fei's proposal. After all, the enemy hadn't reacted at the time, and Zigui could be taken down before reinforcements arrived. Wait for His Majesty's arrival, and then discuss it from a long-term perspective.

After ten days of marching, I finally arrived at Baidi City in mid-May, "Report to the general, according to reports from Chengdu, Your Majesty will have seven days to reach Baidi City," the messenger reported.
"Okay, pass on the order, and the generals will come to the conference hall immediately to discuss the situation of the battle." Zhang Fei was very happy to send the order

"I have some good news for everyone, are you willing to listen to it or not?" Zhang Fei said sarcastically.

"General, don't lose everyone's appetite," Wu Ban suggested.
"The good news is that His Majesty will not arrive until seven days later." Zhang Fei smiled sinisterly after finishing speaking.

"Does the general mean that..." Liu Yong quickly reacted
"That's right, I just plan to go to Jingzhou tomorrow, and make the first contribution to defeating Wu before the enemy is prepared."

Everyone unanimously agreed; because they knew Zhang Fei's temper, no one but his elder brother could change what he decided, and surprise was the art of war.

Therefore, Zhang Fei ordered everyone to rest immediately and set off for Jianping County after dark; they should be able to arrive under the tower of Jianping County at noon tomorrow.

In Baidi City, which was covered in darkness, the gates that had been closed were opened again, and a large number of sergeants in white filial robes poured out. There are so many sergeants out of the city.

Jianye City three days ago; "Now that Liu Xuande is the emperor, commanding more than [-] elite troops to conquer personally, his arrogance is so arrogant, how should we deal with it?" Sun Quan announced to all officials the news of Liu Bei's imperial conquest

After hearing this, all the officials showed panic and helplessness.

Suddenly Zhuge Jin stood up, "I have been living on the salary of Junhou, and I have nothing to repay Yujunhou. Now I am willing to give up my old bones and go to the Han Dynasty to meet the Han Lord and explain to him that the two sides are at war. harm, so that the two countries formed an alliance and jointly attacked the enemy Cao Pi."

"Adversity sees people's hearts. I have Ziyu and I have no regrets in this life," Sun Quan said with emotion; so he immediately sent Zhuge Jin as an envoy to the Shu Han to persuade Liu Bei to retreat.

On the border between Wu and Han; an army is passing through a dense forest and heading towards a mountain road; "Ten Zhang, you said that we will have a chance to enter the battlefield as the general's guard?" Wu Tong asked by Zhuge Qiao road
"If we don't have a single soldier, the general can take Jingzhou. Wouldn't it be better? It's just that the strong enemy ahead is unpredictable. Even if we go out to fight, if we encounter a strong enemy, what should we do?"

"So let's not move for the time being. If the general meets a strong enemy, wouldn't it be better for us to fight for him?" Zhuge Qiao explained slowly.

"It turns out that the head of the village has plans, but do you think we can win this battle, head of the village?" Wu Tong continued to ask

"The battlefield is changing rapidly, no one can say that, you won't be afraid," Zhuge Qiao teased Wu Tong and said

"As the captain of the team under the head of the village, I, Wu Tong, have never been afraid." Seeing that Zhuge Qiao looked down on him, Wu Tong immediately straightened up and expressed his determination. Zhuge Qiao also patted Wu Tong on the shoulder and walked towards him. .

The sun is slowly rising, when the shadow of the spear is no longer visible under the sun, "Report! General, Wu Ban, the front vanguard, is here to report. He has arrived at the foot of Jianping City. Please tell me whether to attack the city immediately." The scouts report.

"Tell him to stand still and wait for the army to come." Zhang Fei immediately ordered "the guards in front of the tent will come with me."

Zhuge Qiao was also surprised when he heard the order, what is Zhang Fei going to do?But he immediately understood that Zhang Fei couldn't bear it anymore, he wanted to immediately capture Jianping City to defeat Wu Jiangong; after thinking about it, he was relieved that Zhang Fei was still Zhang Fei, and he was still so impatient in doing things.

Following Zhang Fei's rapid march for two hours, he finally gathered the vanguard Wu Ban's troops; "Wu Ban, gather your troops and go to Jianping City immediately, I want to fight against the Wu people."

"General, I need you to take action to clean them up." Wu Ban persuaded

"This battle is different from the past. We are holding the banner of 'righteousness' and wearing filial piety clothes to avenge my second brother. This first battle must be fought by me personally, otherwise I am ashamed of my second brother."

So the war kicked off. More than [-] people from Zhang Fei raised the "righteousness" flag and wore filial piety clothes to shout outside the city gate.

"Yan Ren Zhang Yide [I got tangled up, or add a note: Zhang Fei's word Yide] here, who dares to fight me..."

On the top of the wall; "I didn't expect Zhang Fei to come so quickly. He is already in his fifties, and he is still singled out."

"General Wang, I would like to fight Zhang Yide," said a young general pleading
"Do you know who this is, Zhang Yide who fought against Lu Bu before Hulao Pass, Liu Bei and Guan Yu's sworn brother, what are you doing if you are going to die?"

"In the old days, Ma Zhong under General Pan Zhang's command could capture Guan Yu in the Maicheng Trail, so why can't I capture Zhang Fei again?" The young general was so confident that he didn't listen to other people's advice at all.

"Then let you go." The general Wang stared at him with hateful eyes, but he held such a glimmer of hope, after all, Zhang Fei was old.

At this moment, the gate of the city was wide open, and a general jumped out from it, "Zhang Yide, don't be crazy, Lujiang Zhou Zhuo is here to meet you."

Zhang Fei watched Zhou Zhuo come out holding the gun, the distance was getting closer and closer, but Zhou Zhuo regretted it more and more, the aura exuding from Zhang Fei was so overwhelming that he couldn't lift the knife;
At this time, Zhang Fei also rushed over on his black horse. At first glance, it looked like a black whirlwind was blowing over, and Zhou Zhuo's momentum had already been defeated.

The two of them charged for only one round, and Zhou Zhuo's horse felt a hundred times more relaxed, but he lowered his head; it turned out that Zhou Zhuo had been pierced through a hole by Zhang Fei and was hung on the Zhangba Snake Spear; This is not the birth of the devil, what else can it be.

"Listen to me, people on the tower, if you don't open the city and surrender today, once my army arrives, you will have only one way to go; that is death...
