A few days later, outside Fancheng, Zhang Jijun and Liu Biao's army were in full swing. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The opponent is Liu Biao's general Wang Wei and Zhang Ji's general Hu Che'er, the two are evenly matched at this time, the strength is comparable, the last time in Fancheng did not fight, so this time it can be said that it is too addictive, in the blink of an eye, dozens of rounds have passed, and there is still no winner or loser.

"It's pretty powerful!" Hu Che'er looked at Wang Wei on the horse and said in an admiring tone.

"Each other!" Wang Wei arched his hand, "Do you want to come again?"

"Okay!" Hu Che'er shouted, patting the horse to fight Wang Wei.

Wang Wei was not afraid, rode a horse and a gun, and went straight to Hu Che'er.

The weapon used by Hu Che'er was a long iron rod, yellowed throughout, obviously made of brass, intersecting with Wang Wei's golden spear, and immediately burst out with dazzling sparks, which looked extraordinarily brilliant under this gloomy sky.

As far as the eye can see, there are armies fighting everywhere, and the scene is spectacular.

"I didn't expect Zhang Ji to fight alone, and his strength was still so strong!" Liu Biao looked at Zhang Jijun in the Chinese army, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Brother-in-law, why should I worry, I am still brave and brave, and I am afraid that I will not be able to win this Zhang Ji?" Cai Mao on the side was tall and big, dressed in a military uniform, holding a spear, and said to Liu Biao, "Wait for my whole army to go to war, and capture it in one battle!"

Liu Biao shook his head: "This battle is just to test Zhang Jijun's strength, after all, the other party is a figure who has followed Dong Zhuo for many years, and it should not be underestimated!"

Cai Mao said: "Dong Zhuo has been dead for a long time, why should my brother-in-law be afraid of him?"

"Hahahaha!" Kuai Yue on the side couldn't help laughing.

Liu Biao and Cai Mao both looked at Kuai Yue together, and Cai Mao asked Kuai Yue suspiciously, "Why is Xenodu laughing?"

Xenodu is Kuai Yue's expression, he shook his head and said: "I laugh at the general, I don't know the master's mind!"

"Oh?" Liu Biao squinted his eyes at Kuai Yue and asked, "De Jue doesn't know what I'm thinking?"

Kuai Yue cleared his throat and pointed at Zhang Ji's elite soldiers and said: "First, Zhang Ji's army is very strong, but Zhang Ji himself may not be strong; second, the lord's army is stronger, but we have no reason to fight with it, Jingzhou Xinding is not long in time, everyone is tired of war, so this battle, the lord must win, but it can't be protracted!"

"Quick victory?" Cai Mao blurted out, he is also a person who has read military books, not to mention that his family itself is a member of Jingzhou.

Kuai Yue shook his head again and said, "It's a quick decision!"

"Slow down the battle and make a quick decision?" Cai Mao was stunned.

"It's to assassinate Zhang Ji and recruit his army, right?" Kuai Liang rushed over from the rear army and said leisurely.

"Well, this method works!" Cai Mao suddenly realized, and said to Liu Biao, "Brother-in-law, let me take someone to kill this Zhang Ji, Dong Zhuo killed my uncle, and his subordinates will not die well!"

Cai Mao's uncle is Zhang Wen, the captain who was killed by Dong Zhuo in Luoyang that day, Zhang Wen's wife is Cai Mao's aunt, after Zhang Wen was killed, his wife went to Jingzhou's maiden family with the help of well-wishers, Cai Mao and Zhang Wen have always been as close as father and son, so they have been angry about not being able to kill Dong Zhuo with their own hands.

"No, it's too dangerous to take risks in person!" Liu Biao refused, "If something happens to you, how can I explain it to your sister?"

"What are you afraid of?" Cai Mao said indifferently, "My martial arts brother-in-law has seen it, and with so many troops pressing the formation, how can there be something?"

Kuai Yue said: "It doesn't have to be like this, we just need to recruit a group of dead soldiers, and take the opportunity to steal the camp tonight, okay?"

Kuai Liang's eyelashes moved: "Does the so-called dead man refer to the Jinfan thief Gan Ning and his subordinates?"

Kuai Yue looked at Liu Biao and nodded with a smile.

Since Gan Ning left Qu A to defect to Liu Biao, he has been responsible for training the navy, but his official position has always been the captain of the navy, and the strength of Liu Biao's navy has been growing rapidly in the past year, so all the generals are unhappy about it, but there is no way, Liu Biao is from a famous family, and he will not let a thief be a big official, his attitude towards Gan Ning is actually the same as that of Zhang Hu Chen Sheng and other water thieves, use it if you want to, and let them be idle when you don't use it.

This time Zhang Ji attacked Fancheng, Liu Biao quickly dispatched troops to the north to resist the enemy, Gan Ning was naturally among them, he led hundreds of subordinates who were originally water thieves, and also came to Fancheng and obeyed the dispatch.

It was night, Gan Ning still didn't sleep, and the soldier next to him asked, "Big brother, it's so late, don't you still sleep? There must be a battle tomorrow, right?"

Gan Jingjing was silent for a moment and said: "Don't sleep, let everyone not sleep, it is estimated that there will be a task sent down in a while!"

"No!" the little soldier said with a disappointed face, "Big brother, what other tasks will be sent down? It's going to be midnight!"

"The moon is dark and the wind is high, when you kill people and cross the goods!" Gan Ning said solemnly, "Haven't you found out? Almost all the troops that can be dispatched during the day have been dispatched, but only we have not been dispatched, why is this?"

This little soldier didn't know Gan Ning's intentions, and blurted out: "Hmph, it's not that you're afraid of our meritorious service, who doesn't know our strength?"

"Hehehe, I expected this a long time ago, no!" Gan Ning said, "If you don't fight during the day, you save your physical strength, and then kill people at night!"

The little soldier was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized, said goodbye to Gan Ning and went to inform everyone.

Zhang Ji was busy for a day, and was resting in the big tent of the Chinese army at the moment, when someone suddenly reported that Xun Yu had arrived, Zhang Ji was taken aback, and immediately went out of the tent to greet him.

Before the account was out, Xun You had already come in laughing: "How is the general lately?"

Zhang Ji pointed at Xun Yu and pretended to be righteous and said, "Gongda, you guy still dare to come!"

Xun You pretended to think for a while and said: "Isn't there a saying that the grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring?

Zhang Ji had helped escape from prison when Xun You assassinated Dong Zhuo and was imprisoned, so Xun You owed Zhang Ji a favor.

"Difficult?" Zhang Ji was stunned for a moment, "What's so difficult? I only saw that I beat Liu Biaojun and retreated, why is it difficult? Gongda, don't curse me!"

"This difficulty is far away in the sky, close at hand!" Xun You said, "Don't underestimate this Liu Biao, he looks like a weak scholar on the outside, but he is actually quite powerful, don't forget, Sun Jian also once beat Liu Biao and retreated, what in the end?"

Thinking of Sun Jian being fired into a hedgehog by ten thousand arrows, Zhang Ji shivered: "So Liu Biao wants to repeat his old tricks?"

Xun You nodded: "I had a relationship with Liu Biao for some time when I was in Jingzhou, the strength of the Jingzhou army is by no means so simple, and the water thief Gan Ning came to Liu Biao last year, have you ever seen Gan Ning appear in these days when the general and Liu Biaojun were fighting?"

Zhang Ji shook his head: "How powerful is Gan Ning, a water thief?"

Xun You said: "It's not very powerful, but if you talk about archery, you can enter the top three in the world today!"

Speaking of arrows, Zhang Ji shuddered again: "Is it so powerful?"

Xun You Zhengse said: "The general listened to my advice, first retreated and stuck to the north of Fancheng, and Liu Biao only confronted without fighting, Hou Liu Biao has a change in the country, and then take the opportunity to attack!"

Zhang Ji shook his head and said: "No, the rich land of Nanjun is all south of Fancheng, if I withdraw from the army, the soldiers will only be starved to death!"

"That's better than being dragged to death by Liu Biao!" Xun You said, "Actually, there is a strategy, I don't know if the general is willing to use it!"

"Let's hear it!" Zhang Ji became interested, "It won't be Gao Yi who wants me to take refuge in the north, right?"

"Gao Yi naturally can't ask for it, but I'm afraid that his subordinates won't be able to accommodate the general!" Xun You said in a deep voice: "And the method I said is to turn a war with Liu Biao into a jade silk and make peace without a fight!"

"How is it possible?" Zhang Ji smiled bitterly, "How to make it, how to make it?"

Xun You said: "Now both the general and Liu Biao are in the place where the enemy is attacked on all sides, only by abandoning the war and forming an alliance can we jointly resist the enemy, Liu Biao as the general's backup, the general can enter the Central Plains without scruples!"

"It's easy to say, but it's so easy to do?" Zhang Ji said with a wry smile, "Liu Biao's territory was already occupied by Gao Yi, so I can't give me Nanjun, how can Liu Biao give it up?"

"Hehe, although there is a harm, fortunately, there is still a hundred profits!" Xun You smiled, "It's like having a hundred dollars, and a stingy person is reluctant to spend it, so he will lend this hundred dollars to those who need money, so that the people who need money urgently solve the urgent need, and the stingy people have not lost the money, so it is better!"

Zhang Ji suddenly realized: "I see! What should I do?"

Xun You said: "If the general can trust me, I will be Liu Biao's lobbyist!"

"That's really Lao Gongda!" Zhang Ji saluted Xun You, "Actually, I don't want to start a war with Liu Biao, just so that my subordinates have something to eat!"

"Without further ado, I'll leave now!" Xun You said and was about to leave.

Zhang Ji stepped forward and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? It's all the time, we haven't seen each other for a long time, at least sit down and have a glass of wine!"

Xun You shook his head and said: "I can drink wine at any time, but I don't want to owe the general's favor for a day, and the general also knows that now that the Son of Heaven has arrived in Luoyang, I have to hurry up and ask a big official to do it!"

Zhang Ji pouted in disappointment: "Look at the time we meet again, don't you get drunk with Gongda!"

Xun You got out of the tent and got on the horse, and when he heard Zhang Ji's words behind him, he couldn't help laughing and said: "I Xun You don't have any other skills, but the wine is known as a thousand cups and is not drunk, the general didn't get drunk but got drunk himself!"

"It's good to be drunk, a drunk relieves a thousand sorrows, and a drunk everything rests!" Zhang Ji smiled and watched Xun You's body disappear, he really had a little bit of wine, and when he turned around, he wanted to order someone to get wine to relieve his cravings.

Zhang Ji screamed, his body shape was slightly wrong, but he couldn't avoid this arrow, and when he came back to his senses, he had already been nailed through the shoulder by this arrow, and he was in pain.

"There is a thorn-" Before the word could be spoken, Zhang Ji was hit by another arrow in his mouth, and he couldn't say anything at this moment, so he fell to his knees in pain, and picked up the drumstick with his hand to beat the war drum by the tent.

Another arrow hit Zhang Ji's arm accurately, Zhang Ji screamed in pain, threw away the drumstick, looked in all directions in horror, a figure in the darkness slowly approached, and there seemed to be countless figures around him sneaking into the barracks, holding torches in his hands and holding weapons and shouting and fighting with his frightened soldiers.

"Are you?" Zhang Ji said these two words with all his might, looking at the guy who slowly came to him.

"Gan Ning!" the other party's words were very concise, and then raised his knife to wipe Zhang Ji's neck.
