Chapter 306: Liu Bi's Death
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Xu Shu didn't know that he was only used to let Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei's coalition army slow down a little, but how did he know that not only did he fail to stop Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu's coalition army, but the degree of the two sieges of the city was accelerated again.
"Kill, kill, kill!" On Shouchun City, Xu Shu repelled the first wave of Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu's coalition army to attack the city, but Xu Shu was not happy at all, because in the east outside the city, the raging fire was burning, where was once the most prosperous place in Shouchun City, that is, Liu Mang's industrial area, but now it is going to be turned into ashes under the fire, this fire is not only put by Liu Beijun, but also Xu Shu himself endured the pain and let his soldiers set the industrial area on fire, because Zhang Xiu's Xiliang Iron Horse was too fast, and he was still in Baohe half a day ago, Half a day later, he galloped to the outside of the industrial zone, and directly caught Xu Shu off guard, but fortunately, hundreds of white horses with General Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong were circling around righteously, otherwise I am afraid that this industrial zone would be lost in Liu Bei's hands, so at that time, he Xu Shu would really become a sinner of Lu Bujun, because there are many things in this industrial zone that have not yet had time to move into Shouchun City.
But now is not the time to think about it, Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu's army will definitely not give up, this day has not yet darkened, there is definitely a second and third attack, he Xu Shu needs to lead his soldiers to defend this last piece of paradise in Yangzhou.
"Hmph, sure enough, it was the calculation of this Lu Bujun, in order to separate General Zuo and my Xiliang boys!" Zhang Xiu looked at the former capital of Chu and Han from the side, and the place where Yuan Shu was once the emperor sneered, he suddenly attacked Shouchun before today and was ready to take the Shouchun city gate directly, who knew that he was stopped by another cavalry, although the number was small, but most of them were elite, and the guide did not succeed in breaking the door, but from this team of cavalry Zhang Xiu finally showed the strangeness in it, and completely untied the knot between him and Liu Bei.
Lu Bujun calculated again. Isn't this still going to escape General Yangwu's eyes, haha! Liu Bei also complimented Zhang Xiu for a while, and I haven't seen the two of them go from glue-like paint to incompatibility, and then to the current state of good friends, among which there are a lot of them.
……
Yesterday, evening, Zhang embroidered the camp
Zhang Xiu has already made up her mind. Tomorrow morning, he will definitely pull up the army to leave Yangzhou and return to Wancheng, let Yangzhou's Liu Mangjun and Liu Bei's army go to dog eat dog, and after he returns to the army, he will directly assault Liu Bei's Runan, and come to avenge the loss of the previous two thousand Xiliang iron cavalry, and if you are lucky, you can ambush Liu Bei. Completely send Liu Bei into the gate of hell, if this strategy is implemented, then Liu Bei will be really unlucky, and if he doesn't do it well, he can really be played to death by Zhang Xiu, a puppet.
Zhang Xiu can think of it, and Liu Bei and Liu Daer, who naturally have the assistance of the little turkey and phoenix chicks, can also think that Liu Daer has invested so much money under Zhang Xiu, and now Zhang Xiu will not do it if he says not to do it. Not only did he want to fire Liu Daer, the boss, but he even wanted to rob the boss's house, this behavior was really bad, if it was Lu Bu or Sun Ce, he would directly pull up the troops and fight Zhang Xiu, but he was Liu Bei, he could endure things that ordinary people couldn't bear, so Liu Bei came to Zhang Xiu's camp that night.
"What? Liu Bei is visiting?! "Zhang Xiu was just about to fall asleep here, and a herald came from there, and the soldiers reported that someone outside the camp had come to report it. It is said that it is the left general Liu Huangshu, Liu Bei Liu Xuande.
"Lord, what are you doing when you see him Liu Bei, if you want me to say, tomorrow we will wave the army and leave, let him go alone, and we will directly stab his lair! Let him ambush me. Let him calculate the lord! "Hu Che'er on the side is not satisfied, Hu Che'er is not only the deputy general of Zhang Xiu's Xiliang Iron Cavalry, but also the captain of Zhang Xiu's personal guard, so as soon as there is news, Hu Che'er will know.
"Huh!?" Zhang Xiu frowned. His eyes flickered like the candles in the tent, and he didn't know what he was thinking, and suddenly he asked the herald, "How many people are here from this Liu Bei and Liu Da'er?!" ”
"Well, plus Liu Bei, there are three of them! A scribe, a general," replied the herald who did not dare to conceal it.
"Three people?! Haha, this Liu Bei seems to be sending him to death! The lord is not in a hurry, look at me Hu Che'er, so I will order all the soldiers and horses to arrest this Liu Bei Xiaoer and send it to the lord, so that the lord can not only kill Liu Bei Yixue, but also get his tens of thousands of troops, why not! Hu Che'er was going to find the soldiers and horses to kill Liu Bei directly, wanting to swallow Liu Bei's troops.
"Kill Liu Bei? Capture his army?! "To tell the truth, Zhang Xiu is really moved, Liu Bei's white-eared heavy armor foot soldiers make him, a person with Xiliang Iron Cavalry, salivate, this is not the key, the key is Liu Bei's military food, those are what he Zhang Xiu really likes, if you can get Liu Bei's military food, Wancheng may not have to worry about money and food for several years or even decades, after all, Liu Bei has the money in his hands, most of which Liu Bi took those families who did not have time to escape from Yuzhou, and the savings can be described as extremely rich.
But then, Zhang Xiu's fiery heart began to cool down again: "Let Liu Bei and them come in!" “
"My lord? What are you?! Hu Che'er was a little puzzled: "Lord, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" Kill Liu Bei and we can swallow his troops alone, and even we can attack this Shouchun to take Yangzhou and Yuzhou, plus our Wancheng, we are the best princes in the world! "Hu Che'er is a Qiang with a simple mind and big limbs, but he still understands the importance of territory and army in this troubled world.
"Hey!" Zhang Xiu sighed, why didn't he want to just kill Liu Bei and annex his subordinates, but he couldn't do it, not that he Zhang Xiu didn't want to, but he couldn't, because the herald said that this time Liu Bei came to three people, one Liu Bei, a scribe and a general, and there are more than a few loyal to Liu Bei under Liu Bei, Chen to Zhang Fei, which one is easy to deal with, even if that military general is one of them, there is another person left, if he kills Liu Bei, The remaining generals don't fight with themselves, at that time, I'm afraid that not only will they not be able to eat those grains and grass and swallow Liu Bei's army, but they can also beat themselves into it because they killed Liu Bei, so it will be a real loss.
"Lord!" Hu Che'er was still persuading.
"Wait!" Zhang Xiu stopped the herald, Hu Che'er was happy on his face, and thought that the lord of his family really figured out that he was going to kill Liu Bei to annex Liu Bei's soldiers and horses, but Zhang Xiu's next sentence really made Hu Che'er die.
"No need to invite them, I'll go and meet them myself!" Zhang Xiu began to dress as he spoke, anyway, since he didn't want to kill Liu Bei, then the appearance on the surface had to be done. Liu Bei is also General Zuo anyway, much older than him, a general who is a martial general.
Before Zhang Xiujun's camp, there were three people, one of whom was the iconic thick eyebrows and big ears, wasn't it Liu Bei and Liu Da'er? There is also one that seems to be integrated with the night in the dark night, isn't it the black pig's skin Pang Tong? The remaining one is also heroic, and it is the 5,000 people in Liu Pi's army who will turn Liao. Liao Hua was holding a package in his hand.
"This embroidery really deserves to have occupied Wancheng for so long, and the furnishings of this camp can all see its sophistication!" Liu Bei was at the door to take a closer look at the layout of Zhang Xiu's barracks, the entire barracks were not put together and mixed, but a triangle, showing a trend, with two large battalions guarding another large battalion. The three camps complement each other, no matter which camp is attacked, the two camps on the side can react quickly, this is one point, and there is the arrangement of this embroidered sentry, which is basically a bright sentry in five steps and a dark sentry in ten steps. This kind of cautious approach of strict defense is really worthy of admiration, I originally thought that this embroidery was not based on the capital left by his uncle Zhang Ji to dominate Wancheng for so long, but now it seems that he is still very capable, otherwise it is impossible to calculate Cao Cao almost killed Cao Cao.
"Lord, look there!" Pang Tong's small eyes were very pointed, and he could see many cloth bags at a glance.
"Cloth bags?!" Liu Bei's brows furrowed, the cloth bag is not loaded with ordinary things, there is only one thing packed in the cloth bag. That was the grain and grass, and the cloth bags along Pang Tong's arm were obviously empty, these were used up grain and grass bags.
"Fortunately, the lord is wise and ready to go deep into the tiger's den, otherwise, I'm afraid that this embroidered army may be withdrawn cleanly tomorrow morning!" Those grain and grass bags need to be collected when they run out, after all, cloth bags can be regarded as a strategic material. But now that he was thrown on the ground, it meant that this embroidery army was already preparing food, which he had not had time to clean up when he poured out the grain and grass to make hot food.
"Hey!" Like Zhang Xiu, Liu Bei also sighed, if he has enough power in his hands, if he Liu Bei is born as a soldier like Cao Cao and Yuan Shao. has six aunts and seven aunts, and the support of so many brothers, is he Liu Bei like this? If he occupied Yangzhou, Yuzhou like Yuan Shu and had an army of 300,000, he might have achieved a hegemony a long time ago, but he Liu Bei was not, he Liu Bei was just a straw shoe seller, so he had to work harder than any prince, but in the end, he didn't get as much as anyone else's, in order to get more, in order to complete the hegemony in Liu Bei's own heart, he could only endure what ordinary people couldn't bear, and he could only do something that might be life-threatening.
Just when Liu Bei was still feeling the truth, the lights in the camp were bright, and the people and horses along the way rushed towards Liu Bei.
"Protect the lord!" On the side, Liao Hua hurriedly pulled out the war knife in his hand and protected Liu Bei behind him.
"Huh?" Pang Tong and Liu Bei frowned together, could it be that this embroidery is really brainless? Want to? He didn't know that whether he killed himself or tied himself up, the guide was the ending that made Liu Beijun and Zhang Xiujun endless, just when Liu Bei's face was cloudy and uncertain, a hearty voice came from the fire dragon, "Xuande Gong, embroidery doesn't know that Xuande Gong entered the camp in the middle of the night, greeted him late, and went to Xuande Gong to forgive his sins!" ”
As soon as he heard this voice, Liu Bei's heart calmed down, and naturally echoed in line with the words, "Where is it, it is to be prepared late at night to disturb General Yangwu's rest, is it not good to prepare!" The two exchanged a few polite words, and Zhang Xiu welcomed Liu Bei into Zhang Xiu's camp.
"Liu Bei, thief, what are you still doing? Do you want to see if our lord has been killed by you?! Compared with Zhang Xiu's politeness to Liu Bei, Hu Che'er on the side was not so polite, and he directly choked Liu Bei when he came up.
Liu Bei did not answer Hu Che'er directly, but glanced at Zhang Xiu, and saw that Zhang Xiu did not have any obstruction, so he knew that this Zhang Xiu was still resentful of the ambush of his Xiliang Iron Cavalry during the day.
"Huh!" Hu Che'er is Zhang Xiu's deputy general, although his status is not small, but he is not a big man, naturally he does not need Liu Bei to respond to him in person, what kind of level is naturally what kind of person to drink, Pang Tong stepped forward and hugged his fists and smiled, "General Hu Che'er, my lord and I came to visit late at night." In addition to discussing important matters with General Yangwu, there is also a person who makes amends like General Yangwu! ”
"Reparation?! Oh, what a crime Xuande Gong has! Zhang Xiu said with a haha, which shows that what seems to be a rhetorical question is actually an affirmative sentence, you Liu Xuande know that you are wrong, how can you admit your mistake.
"General Yangwu, my lord's teaching is not strict, and the general under his command Liu Pi actually wielded a knife against friendly troops in order to covet merit. So my lord was furious when he learned the truth, and he had already punished Liu Pi," Pang Tong talked eloquently to Zhang Xiu.
"Hmph, it's not that you sing and harmonize, where are you going to deal with my Hu Che'er and those two thousand Xiliang men, but to deal with my lord!" Hu Che'er still said unrelentingly.
"This is General Hu Che'er's worry!" Pang Tong stepped forward and said to Zhang Xiu, he knew that Hu Che'er was just a deputy general. Only by persuading Zhang Xiu can we really dispel Zhang Xiu's idea of withdrawing the army: "Don't hide it from General Yangwu, our army did encounter a cavalry before meeting General Hu Che'er, or a heavy armored cavalry!" It was they who killed more than 2,000 lightly armed infantry soldiers of our army, Yuzhou Army! ”
"Who believes?!" Hu Che'er just didn't buy it, nonsense, he almost died in the ambush circle, he Hu Che'er can have a good impression of Liu Beijun, there is a ghost, not only does he not have a good image. If Zhang Xiu hadn't stopped him, Hu Che'er might have killed him directly.
"General Zhang Xiu, did you get a scout yesterday?!" Pang Tong asked Zhang Xiu directly.
"Yes!" Zhang Xiu will not hide such a small matter, so there is no point.
"I don't say whether that scout was killed after being caught, only when I couldn't stand it in the end, I told the general that there was such a grain transport team going to Shouchun from Lujiang on the official road!?" Pang Tong continued to ask rhetorically. Zhang Xiu didn't speak, but his expression told Pang Tong that this was correct.
"Doesn't the general think it's strange?! Why didn't you say it before, but said it in the end?! “
"What's so strange about this, is it that everyone says it like you in the first place? That scout is a man, and I admire him! "The scout called Fenghe was tortured by Hu Che'er himself, and Hu Che'er even beat him to the ground. even scalded his lower body with a soldering iron, but this man just didn't say a word, until finally he couldn't stand it anymore, so he said the news.
"That's right, my lord and General Zhang Xiu are both skilled?!" Pang Tong directly said that both of their armies were skilled to divert the contradiction between the two.
"Zhongji? I've fallen for your plan! Let my two thousand Xiliang men die inexplicably! ”
"General Hu Che'er, I want to ask. That scout of yours is telling you when the grain convoy will arrive?! ”
"It's probably the end of the day!" Hu Che'er thought for a while and said.
"General Hu Che'er, the scout captured by our army told us that it was at noon!"
"It's just a different time! What's the difference? It's just an hour away! The food convoy is still there, and we have received an ambush from your army! ”
"Of course there is a difference, and the difference is even bigger!" Pang Tong said the key: "If it is a cavalry in an hour, you can kill one back and forth." And the heavy armored cavalry we met before was not the Xiliang Iron Cavalry at all, they pretended to be the Xiliang Iron Cavalry and used this grain truck as a bait to raid our Yuzhou Army, could it be that the Yuzhou Army retreated when the large army arrived, and at this time it happened to be General Hu Che'er You arrived with the two thousand Xiliang Iron Cavalry under your command, what do you say they will think! I thought that you were in a group with the fake Xiliang Iron Rider in front of you, and you were here to snatch credit, so in order to save your life, you will naturally do something out of the ordinary to ambush you! Pang Tong said that this is almost the same as what Xu Shu planned in Shouchun, and it is worthy that Feng Xiao can rely on clues to guess to such a point.
"I also remembered when you said this, it is true that those grain trucks had the smell of blood before this, and there were traces of horses' hooves running, but how do you explain that the sentence after that is not Zhang Xiu?! It seems to be the person in front of you who shouted it! Hu Che'er saw Liao Hua standing beside Liu Bei, isn't this the person who said that he was not Zhang Xiu after Liu Bijian was difficult under his crotch!
"General Hu Che'er, this needs to be explained to you by General Liao Hua himself! Liaohua! Pang Tong shouted Liao Hua.
"General Hu Che'er, please forgive Liao Hua Bairi for not knowing that it was General Hu Che'er who started the sword, I was actually in a hurry, my full words are that the previous wave of cavalry was not Zhang Xiujun, we killed the wrong person, but it was too late on the battlefield at that time!" Liao Hua said and half-knelt down and hugged his fists towards Zhang Xiu and Liao Hua. "Kill or chop, let General Hu Che'er dispose of it!" It turned out that this Liao Hua was carrying a basket behind him, which was full of thorns, which was a crime of playing with thorns.
"I'm going to kill you!" Can it be over if you kill the wrong person? Hu Che'er was so angry that he pulled out his weapon and split Liao Hua.
"Hu Che'er, stand down!" Zhang Xiu suddenly scolded.
"My lord?!" Hu Che'er didn't understand, this enemy who killed two thousand brothers was in front of him, how could he not kill him to take revenge!
"Stand down!" Zhang Xiu repeated again, Hu Che'er reluctantly fought aside: "If people are not sages, who can be innocent, General Liao Hua can know his mistakes and change them, that's good!" "Kill Liao Hua? Zhang Xiu also wanted to kill Liao Hua, but killing Liao Hua would be over? Killing Liao Hua will only lose one of his big chips in vain, since Liu Beijun killed the wrong person, he will naturally have to compensate, as for how this compensation law depends on Liu Bei's sincerity. How much is a Liaohua head worth?
Pang Tong was smiling in his heart, Zhang Xiu's expression and reaction were under Pang Tong's control, this is a troubled time, human lives are measured by money, and to deal with Zhang Xiu's greedy people, he naturally has to feed him "Two thousand Xiliang men died, and my lord was also very sad, so not only returned two thousand war horses and two thousand pairs of heavy armor, but also selected two thousand strong people from my Qingzhou elite and handed them over to General Yangwu to complete the trilogy!" "These two thousand war horses make Liu Bei's heart very bloody, they are very difficult to get horses here in the Central Plains, a good horse can be sold on the black market for 100 gold, even a big belongings in Jiangdong can only make a Yuzhou iron horse!
"Hehe, I'll accept two thousand war horses and two thousand pairs of heavy armor, this person, I won't snatch love with a sword!" Zhang Xiu unceremoniously accepted the war horse and armor, as long as he returned to Wancheng and asked people to go to Xiliang to recruit thousands of more people, and Liu Bei gave the people and horses, even if Liu Bei was willing to give him, he didn't dare to ask for it, don't make a dowry for others at that time. After speaking, he looked at Pang Tong with sparkling eyes, these things were not satisfied, they were what he deserved.
"In addition, in order to give compensation to those brothers who died in battle, my lord is willing to pay 5,000 gold, 3,000 gold to General Hu Che'er to suppress the shock, and the remaining 2,000 gold to those soldiers who died in battle!" 5,000 gold was sent out directly, and Liu Bei's treasury was about to be embroidered to Zhang Xiu, tens of thousands of gold before and after.
"There are also 10,000 stone of grain and grass, as the distribution of the military grain transported to Shouchun by the two armies in cooperation with each other before, "Those grain trucks are enough, there are only one or two thousand stones, where is there 10,000 stones, this is also what Liu Bei did in order to pull Zhang Xi."
"Hmph, do you think you can buy my lord with money!" Hu Che'er still didn't stop and continued to choke. Zhang Xiu was a little annoyed with Hu Che'er.
But Pang Tong still had a smile on his face, this smile looked good now, but after a while, Zhang Xiu was a little frightened, "General Hu Che'er, don't be angry, we have taken down the culprit and let General Hu Che'er deal with it!" ”
"The culprit? Is this Liaohua?! Hu Che'er said disdainfully.
"Definitely!" Pang Tong shook his head: "Liao Hua, please come out and hand it over to General Zhang Xiu!" ”
"Yes!" Liao Hua nodded, and took out a package from the back basket, this package was round, Liao Hua took him out directly, and removed the cloth on it to reveal the contents inside.
As soon as the thing came out, Zhang Xiu gasped, this is a good head, the blood on the head is still flowing, the face is hideous, the expression is unwilling, and there is a kind of regret, isn't this head Liu Pi who asked Liu Bei to be the master in Liu Bei's army during the day!
