Chapter 285: The Sword

Fang Yue finally failed to bring Liu Biao back to Xiangyang, the state herding car was already behind, Liu Biao jumped out of the cavalry formation and did not react to continue to gallop forward, and when he turned around, Liu Biao was slowly protected by the Jingzhou cavalry in the middle, seeing Liu Biao holding his legs on the ground and shouting, his calf twisted into a strange shape, obviously broken.

Looking at the Jingzhou sergeant who rushed up from the rear, Fang Yue knew that he was invincible, so he could only lead his troops to retreat.

When he returned to Xiangyang, it was already a branch on the moon, and Fang Yue, who was depressed and exhausted, no longer had the courage when he was fighting, and went to the south of Xiangyang to open a camp to find his jaw.

"General, the last general is not effective, and he failed to capture Liu Jingsheng."

"If you don't catch it, you don't catch it, why are you depressed." Zhang Jaw didn't care whether he caught Liu Biao or not, if he could catch Liu Biao so easily, where did King Zhao need to send tens of thousands of troops to besiege Jingzhou. This was just a stroke of luck, seeing that the stains on Fang Yue's clothes were stained with blood before he had time to wash them, he smiled and said, "It doesn't look like I haven't caught up!" Enemy forces on guard? ”

"Alas, the chase is to catch up, and he was almost able to capture Liu Jingsheng, but he taught him to jump out of the car and escape." Fang Yue saw that Zhang Jaw was not to blame, and his heart was a lot more relaxed, but in the end, there was still a bit of gloom, and said: "The last general will intercept three luxurious cars in Jingzhou, one of which is that there is a young woman in Liu Biao's car; Another two cars are about his sons and nephews, and they are now in the camp, I don't know what to do? ”

Zhang Jaw was happy when he heard it, and he didn't catch Liu Biao, hearing that this meant grabbing Liu Biao's family, which was not a bad thing. However, he was not in a hurry to see the battle gains, and Fang Yue asked, "What are the casualties?" ”

"More than 40 wounded, more than 300 killed."

This is a lot of bad news, these more than 800 horsemen are all Zhang Jaw's headquarters, and he has followed him for many years, and now he has killed and injured 400 people in the first battle, not counting the dozens of people who were injured earlier in the camp, more than half of the losses in the first battle, how can Zhang Jaw not feel distressed. As for the casualties of the Jingzhou army hostile to them, Zhang Jaw didn't ask, he knew the strength of his subordinates, since the Jingzhou army had caused them so heavy casualties, not to mention the Jingzhou soldiers, it was definitely not comfortable.

"There are more dead than wounded, alas!" Zhang Jaw got up and didn't say more, and said to the other party: "The wounded robe is properly placed, and the names of the fallen sergeants are recorded, and Zhang will make it clear to King Zhao after the battle to ask for compensation." ”

It is rare to have more dead than wounded, but it is not uncommon in pursuit. Especially when they gallop like this, if they are injured and fall off the horse, where can they have any way to live, only if they are dead.

When they arrived in the camp, many prisoners had been invited off the car, but they were not tied up by the five flowers, but they were invited into the wooden cage prepared by Zhang Jaw for Liu Biao's generals in the camp, and there were more than ten people in a rough number. And among these five or six people, there are a man and a woman respectively, even if they are in a cage, the middle-aged man still stands faintly behind everyone, but only gives way to the beautiful woman half a step, and it seems that the master and servant are separated.

After the two, there were three others, two men and one woman, a young couple, and a man with a silver seal on his waist.

The corners of his mouth were hooked, and he said secretly: The lowest status is two thousand stones? Looking back, he raised his two fingers and pointed at Fang Yue, "You have made a meritorious service!" ”

"What is your surname, and report it, a certain is the general of Duliao under the command of King Zhao, Zhang Jaw, what do you have to say, take advantage of now." Zhang Jaw waved his hand to sit on the couch, so he sat generously opposite the cage, spread his hands and said, "Let's talk about it." ”

"The general is polite, in Kuaiyue, Xiajingzhou, this is Mrs. Cai, the wife of the envoy. The generals will capture us and help the war, so why don't you let us go back? Kuai Yue was polite, smiling but sincere, and said: "We will be grateful for the general's kindness." ”

Previously, Zhang Jaw had guessed who the name of this beautiful woman was, but now that he heard Kuai Yue say it, there was naturally no exception in his eyes, but he had a different color on the face of Kuai Yue who spoke, and said with a smile: "Brother Kuai is only afraid of exaggeration, and others will not say it for the time being, just Mr. Yidu, who helped Liu Envoyjun settle Jingzhou, does not dare to let it go privately." Who are the rest? ”

Kuai Yue, in Zhang Jaw's understanding, is not only Liu Biao's neighbor, but also a strategist who is enough to influence the governance of Jingzhou, even if he releases anyone, he will not let him go!

As for Mrs. Cai, it doesn't matter, although she is a beautiful woman, there are so many women in the world, and not everyone can touch Liu's cousin, so she will inevitably be sent to Handan later to ask King Zhao to decide. While listening to Kuai Yue's introduction, Zhang Jaw already had a plan in his heart about where they would go, and then looked at the others with blazing eyes, expecting Fang Yue to bring him the rest of the surprises.

Sometimes, there are people who are more important to Jingzhou than Liu Biao.

War can come and go, but this land will always be this land, and the people who live on this land will always be these people. In Jingzhou, these things are the Kuai family and the Cai family, and as long as they are still here, Jingzhou will still be theirs.

Among the generals of the Yan family, Zhang Jaw belongs to the small man with a higher background, and he knows this truth better than others. Compared with the land under the rule of Yan and Yu Cao, which had already experienced the rebellion of the scholars, and the area established by Qing and Xu all the way to the south, these people were very important if they wanted to end the war as soon as possible in Jingzhou.

Kuai Yue thought for a moment, and then introduced to Zhang Jaw: "This is Liu Yuanjun's second son Cong, and his wife, Mrs. Cai's niece. This is the younger brother Kuaiqi, and the rest are all servants. ”

Zhang Jaw couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and glanced back at Fang Yue, he really didn't expect to catch Liu Biao's son back this time!

However, at this moment, an untimely voice interrupted the open jaw that was immersed in fantasy, and Liu Cong, who was behind Cai's family, said to Kuai Yue: "Why do you have to talk a lot with the thieves, the king of Zhao in their mouths attacked me in Jingzhou and killed my people, and now they are pretending to be friendly people, and they know their masters by looking at them, and it is expected that Yan Zhongqing is not a master!" ”

Kuai Yue couldn't stop Liu Cong, and hurriedly grabbed Liu Cong and confessed to Zhang Jaw, and secretly scolded Liu Cong in his heart: This shaft!

Now the enemy and I are obvious, people are swords, I am fish and meat, and even put my life in the hands of others, and I am ashamed to insult the lord of the open jaw...... Even if you don't want to live, you don't have to, right?

The point is, if you don't want to live, why bother pulling them!

"I'm afraid Liu Gongzi should read more books, if your father is here, he shouldn't dare to say this." Zhang Jaw sneered, looking at Liu Cong full of pity, this kid still doesn't know what awaits him, "The battle between the Yan clan and Jingzhou was the first time that your father declared war, and he sent his subordinate generals to join the Cao clan and the kings to attack our state, and now it is broken by my king, and he will still make a big fuss?" ”

Zhang Jaw asked about it, and he didn't want to talk nonsense with a few people anymore, so he arched his hand to Kuai Yue and said: "After a few days of tiring travel, I will grieve you tonight and rest this morning...... Early tomorrow morning, all of them will be sent to Handan! ”
