This time, Zhuge Jin came uninvited, but it was beyond his surprise, so he asked: "I sent someone to invite Ziyu last time, but Ziyu didn't come, why didn't you come today?" ”

"When the time is ripe, it is naturally when I come, the last time the time is not ripe, even if I come, I am just idle and have nothing to do, it is better for me to take care of my two younger brothers at home, and now the time is ripe, it is the time for me to come to serve." Zhuge Jin replied solemnly.

Liu Bei said: "Oh? Then I want to listen, when the time is right? ”

"Chu Hou, Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao died, although his son Liu Qi took over Jingzhou, but it was not enough to convince the public, although there is the Minister of State Kuai Yue assisted, but Liu Qi's temperament is relatively gentle, not a person who does great things, those who achieve great things, must endure what ordinary people can't bear. General Liu has been wandering among the princes for several years, and although he has not yet had a place to live, this experience is not necessarily a good thing. Now that the time is ripe, it is the time for General Liu to rise, and I, Zhuge Jin, am naturally grateful to General Liu for saving my father's life, and my Zhuge clan is protected by General Liu, so it is time to repay General Liu. If General Liu doesn't dislike it, I, Zhuge Ziyu, am willing to follow the general from now on, before and after the saddle, and I will not give up. ”

When Liu Bei heard Zhuge Jin's words, his heart was surging, he immediately stood up, walked to Zhuge Jin's side, personally helped Zhuge Jin up, and said with a smile: "Ziyu came at the right time......

Zhuge Jin didn't have time to answer, and immediately said: "Lord, the soldiers are fast, without further ado, the lord has been secretly training soldiers for several days, isn't it today, he should send troops overnight, and capture the land of the three counties with lightning speed." With a strong voice. ”

Liu Bei said: "Okay! Then I will allocate 1,000 soldiers and horses to Ziyu, go to fetch Chaoyang, and set off tonight. ”

"My lord, our army has a total of 4,000 soldiers and horses, General Guan took 500, and now the lord has allocated another 3,000. There are only 500 people left in Xinye, will there be any danger? Mi Fang said worriedly.

Zhuge Jin said: "General Mi rest assured, no one dares to touch the lord now, only the lord can take Nanyang for himself if he strikes first." The Taishou and county orders in Nanyang all obeyed Liu Qi's orders, and Liu Qi didn't give orders, even if they had the courage to mess around. Therefore, this gave the lord the opportunity to strike first. After seizing Nanyang, Liu Qi dispatched troops and horses, but he was afraid that it would be too late. ”

Liu Bei said: "Ziyu is reasonable, you don't have any scruples, let's go." ”

"No!"

Subsequently, Mi Fang, Tian Yu, and Zhuge Jin each led an army out of the city, and Liu Bei stood on the city tower to see him off.

……

Nanyang, Wancheng.

Li Feng had just woken up. He kissed the beautiful woman in his arms greedily, and then jumped off the bed naked.

"Your Excellency. Is the slave and maid uncomfortable? A beautiful woman lying on the bed said coquettishly.

Li Feng said with a smile: "You little goblin, come on, let me care for you a little more, and then go out to do serious things." ”

"Isn't that serious? Didn't the adults always want a son, the slave maid gave the adult ten or eight of them, as long as the adults could come to me every day. ”

"Hey, hey. Your mouth is so sweet, come, let me kiss one. ”

"Bang bang bang!" There was a knock on the door.

"Who the hell doesn't have a little bit of eyes, and dares to disturb Lao Tzu's dream?" Li Fengdao.

"My lord, there's a man with a black face outside. Wounded a lot of officials, clamoring to see the adults......"

"Bastard thing, where did you come from, so blind?" Li Feng turned to the beauty and said, "Wait for me here, I'll be back soon." ”

Outside the gate of the Taishou Mansion, a group of officials and a group of soldiers were beaten and bruised, and they couldn't get up from the ground one by one, wailing in pain. Zhang Fei grabbed a soldier with one hand, and the other hand crossed the Zhangba snake spear, stared at him widely, his face was bruised, his beard stood steeply, and he threw out the soldier he was holding in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Go and tell Li Feng to get out of here, grandpa has something to look for him." ”

A group of people were beaten by Zhang Fei and staggered, they couldn't get up, they wailed and howled one by one, and they all begged for mercy together: "Grandpa Zhang's life, Grandpa Zhang's life." ”

Zhang Fei rushed to Wancheng overnight, ran all the way, didn't even take care of rest, just arrived at Wancheng City today, just got off the horse, his mount was tired, and fell directly to the ground, foaming at the mouth.

Fortunately, at this time, the city gate of Wancheng opened, Zhang Fei entered the city gate with a bad face, and began to call from the city gate, shouting to see Li Feng, the soldiers were not enough to stop it, and Zhang Fei was beaten from the city gate to the gate of the Taishou Mansion alone.

"Who is so bold that they feel that they are too wild in front of the door of the mansion?" Li Feng was neatly dressed, dressed in a military uniform, with a long sword hanging from his waist, and walked out with the guards in the Taishou Mansion.

Wancheng has 8,000 horses and infantry troops, and it stands to reason that it is not a problem to block a Zhang Fei, but this matter came too suddenly, from Zhang Fei's entry into the city to the Taishou Mansion, it was only a short time before and after, plus last night's 8,000 soldiers sang and carnival, they were all drunk, and only a few hundred people were responsible for guarding the city, which allowed Zhang Fei to take a big advantage.

Zhang Fei saw Li Feng walk out, looked at Li Feng's clothes, and asked, "Are you Nanyang guarding Li Feng?" ”

Li Feng saw a burly man with a face as black as carbon and tiger-eyed beard standing there, and then looked at a group of wailing soldiers lying on the ground in front of the door, and felt that this person was not very easy to deal with. However, he had already taken precautions, and planted twenty strong crossbowmen in the dark place in front of the gate of the Taishou Mansion, as long as the opponent moved, crossbow arrows would immediately shoot and kill him.

"Bold! Is your name the same for this official? You reckless man, you dare to make a big fuss about the Taishou Mansion, don't you want to live? "Li Feng has no fear, full of confidence, in addition to the twenty strong crossbowmen, he also has his own well-trained ten personal guards behind him, each of them is very strong in martial arts, with thirty strong pawns, there should be no problem to deal with a reckless man.

"Humph! It's really you, it's great. I'm Zhang Fei. If you know each other, hurry up and hand over your Nanyang Taishou's seal, otherwise I will let your blood be spattered on the spot. Zhang Fei stretched the Zhangba snake spear forward, stretched out his hand and spread it forward, and said loudly.

"Zhang Fei? Who are they? I haven't heard of it. How dare you, a reckless man, defy your own officials? is still trying to rebel, come here. Take this reckless man down! "Li Feng has always been self-centered, forgetful of goodness, and will only care about those who are famous, as well as those who are closely related to him, not to mention Zhang Fei, he has never heard of it, even Liu Bei He has only heard people talk about it once or twice, he has always been blessed in Nanyang, safe and stable, whoever called, he surrendered to whom. That's his rule of survival.

Without waiting for Li Feng's men to move, the angry Zhang Fei quickly launched an attack, striding forward, taking a snake-shaped route, and the Zhangba snake spear pounced on Li Feng like a giant python in his hand.

"Shoot the arrows!" Li Feng was taken aback, he didn't expect the other party's actions to be so fast, and his body took several steps back.

Ten personal guards stood in front of Li Feng and quickly drew the long sword he was wearing at his waist. And the twenty strong crossbowmen hidden in the shadows, as soon as they heard the order. Without hesitation, he pulled the crossbow, and twenty arrows pierced the sky and shot towards Zhang Fei like a fly. Zhang Fei had already discovered that there was a crossbowman hidden in the shadows, and he had already been on guard in his heart, and when twenty arrows came at him, he saw that his hand holding the Zhangba snake spear kept shaking. The spear of the eight snakes was like a spirit snake spitting out letters, and the arrows that were shot directly fell one after another, only to hear a series of "ding" weapons colliding sounds.

As soon as the crossbowmen finished shooting their arrows, before they had time to load new arrows, Zhang Fei had already approached the door of the Taishou Mansion.

Li Feng was taken aback. I wondered how this man was so powerful that he could shoot down arrows that were shot at him in such a short distance. He stepped back again and again, pulled out the long sword he was wearing at his waist with a "swish", and shouted at the ten personal swordsman guards in front of him: "Stop him, stop him." ”

Without hesitation, the ten swordsmen immediately rushed up, and the chaotic long swords all stabbed at Zhang Fei's vital point, three on the left, three on the right, and four on the front, and ten people attacked Zhang Fei together.

"Phew!"

Zhang Fei shouted, the Zhangba Snake Spear in his hand shook suddenly, and he quickly held the Zhangba Snake Spear with both hands and circled around his waist, blocking the attack of the ten swordsmen, and the killing move came out casually, and the giant python opened its bloody mouth and bit the throats of the ten swordsmen at a rapid speed.

"Wow......"

A series of screams rang out, and the ten swordsmen covered their necks one after another, unable to scream anymore, just struggling there, and the long swords in their hands also fell to the ground.

The spearhead of the Zhangba Snake Spear was covered with thick blood, and without any stopping, it flew directly towards the frightened Li Feng. Li Feng was frightened, it was the first time he had seen such a scene, and the ten swordsmen under his command were so vulnerable. He saw Zhang Fei stabbing with the Zhangba snake spear, and instinctively lifted the long sword to cover it, but as soon as the hand holding the long sword was raised, the Zhangba snake spear suddenly sank, and the spearhead stabbed directly into his abdomen, and the cold stinging sensation suddenly made him forget everything, and instinctively let out a miserable scream.

Zhang Fei showed no mercy in his hands, and the eight snake spears entered and exited seven times in a row, and he was stunned to stab Li Feng's body with several transparent blood holes.

Blood splattered, and Li Feng fell to the ground.

Zhang Fei crossed the Zhangba Snake Spear, turned around and glared at the twenty strong crossbowmen, and shouted loudly: "If you are not afraid of death, come up to me!" ”

The roar was like thunder, rolling into the ears of everyone present, and the twenty strong crossbowmen couldn't help but tremble, and the crossbow machine in their hands could no longer be lifted, and they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Zhang Fei stood there, majestic, and said loudly: "Li Feng is dead, I, Zhang Fei, will take over Nanyang County from now on, and those who are not convinced will come up to me!" ”

……

Guan Yu rode a red rabbit horse, with twenty cavalry and four hundred and eighty infantry, and rushed to the outside of Wancheng at noon, less than five miles away from Wancheng.

"The third brother went to Wancheng alone, and I don't know what happened at this time, with the temper of the third brother, he must have broken into the Taishou Mansion alone to kill Li Feng, and then deterred his subordinates, I hope there will be no accidents." Guan Yu thought in his heart.

"The whole army is moving faster!" Guan Yu was worried about Zhang Fei, so he turned his head and shouted loudly to the subordinates behind him.

With an order, Guan Yu with five hundred horse infantry troops accelerated the speed of the march and galloped towards Wancheng.

After a period of time, Guan Yu came to Wancheng with five hundred horse infantry troops, and saw that the banner of the Chu army was still hanging on the city of Wancheng, and some soldiers were still patrolling. I couldn't help but feel a little worried, and secretly thought, "Didn't the third brother succeed?" ”

Before he had time to think about it, Guan Yu carried the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, rode the red rabbit horse, walked forward for a while, and shouted loudly towards the city wall: "A certain is Guan Yu." I came to capture Wancheng, and if you know each other, hurry up and open the city gate, otherwise you will be splattered with blood on the spot. ”

Because Guan Yu killed Lu Bu, his reputation quickly spread all over the country, and the title of "King of the Bearded Sword" quickly became popular.

On the city wall of Wancheng, a small colonel saw Guan Yu immediately under the city, and instead of showing a trace of fear on his face, he looked very happy and crossed his arms. Haha laughed: "Guan Yunchang is nothing more than that, it's a pity that you are a step late, your sworn brother Zhang Yide has been beheaded by my family Taishou." Now, it's your turn to give the head Guan Yunchang. ”

As soon as the words fell, the colonel raised his arm, the bows and crossbows on the city wall were ready, and the war drums sounded.

After Guan Yu heard this, a look of surprise appeared on his face. He couldn't believe that Zhang Fei had been killed. His squinted Danfeng eyes slowly opened. There was an unusual murderous intent radiating from his eyes, and his deep eyes were even more murderous.

"Third brother! Second brother is going to avenge you today......"

Before the words fell, three forces suddenly came out from under the city wall, and Guan Yu was surrounded on the left, right, and back sides, firmly encircling a camp.

Guan Yu was taken aback, and thought, "Could it be that there are masters under Li Feng's account to help him?" Did you know that I would come and set up an ambush in advance? ”

Guan Yu's subordinates were a little surprised, they were only 500 people, but they were surrounded by 9,000 people, which could be said to be in a heavy siege.

Then. The drawbridge of Wancheng was lowered, the city gate suddenly opened, and Zhang Fei rode out of the city on a horse with a smile on his face, followed by a group of captains with blue noses and swollen faces.

When Guan Yu saw it, he immediately laughed, thrust the Qinglong Yanyue Knife into the ground, turned over and dismounted, and stood there waiting for Zhang Fei to arrive.

Zhang Fei quickly came to Guan Yu's side, turned over and dismounted, and said with a smile: "Second brother, didn't you frighten you just now?" ”

Guan Yu said: "When is it, the third brother is still in the mood to joke?" ”

Squinting at the captains behind Zhang Fei with blue noses and swollen faces, Guan Yu already understood a little, and dared to love that Zhang Fei subdued these captains by force.

"Second brother, I also want to see how you react when you hear that I am dead, but I didn't expect you to be expressionless, I am really angry." Zhang Fei complained.

Guan Yu didn't say anything, he was really angry just now, the murderous aura on his body was shrouded, but there was no expression on his face, if Zhang Fei didn't come out, he was afraid that he would kill today.

"Third brother, don't mess around like this in the future, go, go into the city, and send someone to welcome the eldest brother." Guan Yu said.

"Good. Second brother, please! ”

Jingzhou, Xiangyang City. In just three days, Liu Bei quickly captured the entire Nanyang County, took Nanyang County as his own, and assigned troops to deploy on the road from Xiangyang to Xinye, blocking the rescue troops of Xiangyang City.

"I really didn't expect that Uncle Xuande would be so dignified, I treat him well, and he wants to turn against me?" Liu Qi reclined on the seat and sighed.

"At the beginning, his subordinates persuaded the lord to kill Liu Bei to prevent future troubles, but the lord was merciful and refused to do it, so that it caused today's evil consequences. However, Li Feng was originally a mediocre child, and although his subordinates had more than 10,000 soldiers, he was not worried. At present, it is imperative to send troops as soon as possible, and take advantage of Liu Bei's unstable foothold to attack Nanyang, only in this way can the northern part of Jingzhou be stabilized, and the lord can also concentrate on dealing with the four counties of Jingnan. Kuai Yue said.

Liu Qi said sadly: "Since Cai Mao and Zhang Yun died in battle, and Wang Wei surrendered to the Yan army, our army's talents have withered, and there are very few people who can lead troops to fight. ”

Kuai Yue said: "Jingzhou is a treasure land of feng shui, and there is no shortage of literati and military generals, although they are not as brave as Liu Bei's Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but they are all brave and resourceful people. The subordinates are willing to recommend a few people for the lord, so that they can go to pacify Liu Bei. ”

Liu Qi said happily: "Oh, who is the Minister of State recommending?" ”

Kuai Yue said: "The first one is a native of Dingling, Yingchuan, surnamed Du, and the word is Xu; The second place is Hedong Wenxi, surnamed Pei Mingqian. Character line; The third place is a native of Xiping, Runan, with a surname and a name, and a Yangshi. In addition, there are still Yuan Shao's nephews and high-ranking cadres from Jingzhou who avoid chaos in Jingzhou and live in Xiangyang City. In addition to the above four who can lead troops to fight, there are still a few resourceful people who can also be up to the task. ”

Liu Qi had just taken over Jingzhou, and he was not even familiar with the faces of the generals, so he naturally didn't know that Jingzhou was also Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. ”

Kuai Yue said: "Runan Pingyuren, Xu Shao." The word general, this person is the brother of Situ Xu Jing of the Han Dynasty today, quite strategic, good at observing people, Wei Hou Cao Cao once went to visit, was called by Xu Shao "the able minister of the world, the traitor of the troubled times", and now he is avoiding the chaos of Jingzhou. Living outside the city of Xiangyang, if he is a military advisor. Don't worry that Liu Bei can't be calmed. In addition, Han Song, Liu Xian, Fu Xun and others who are engaged in Zhonglang can join the army. ”

After Liu Qi heard this, his blood was surging, and he immediately said: "Okay, then you can send troops to attack Liu Bei." If he is unkind to me, don't blame me for being unjust to him. ”

Kuai Yue was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Liu Qi to be so rash, and immediately said: "Lord, you must first elect a main general." Otherwise, the four generals will fight separately, and the soldiers will not know where the order comes from, and they will inevitably be in a hurry. ”

Liu Qi didn't understand military affairs, so he immediately said: "Then ask the minister of state to call the shots, transfer troops and send generals, and attack Liu Bei." ”

"No!"

Kuai Yue received Liu Qi's carte blanche and immediately asked people to invite Du Xian, Pei Qian, He Qia, Gao Gan, Xu Shao, Han Song, Liu Xian, and Fu Xun from inside and outside Xiangyang City to the Taishou Mansion. Some of these eight people avoided the chaos in Jingzhou, and some of them were officials under Liu Biao's account, and they lived in different places in Xiangyang City, and it was difficult to gather for a while.

Kuai Yue waited in the hall of the Taishou Mansion for a long time, and then eight people came over one after another.

Du Xian, Pei Qian, He Qia, Gao Gan, Xu Shao, Han Song, Liu Xian, and Fu Xun are from all over the world. As soon as the eight people entered the hall of the Taishou Mansion, they bowed their hands in unison: "I have seen the Prime Minister." ”

Kuai Yue, who is also the minister of Chu State, the Taishou of Nanjun, the military advisor of the Chu army, is considered a pivotal figure in the Chu army, he waved his hand, motioned for the eight people to sit down and said at the same time: "It is indeed a bit abrupt to call the eight people today, but things are also prioritized, and now it is time to burn the eyebrows." Since the death of the old lord and his brother Xian, the state of Chu has been in turmoil, first the four counties of Jingnan rebelled together under the bewitchment of Zhang Xian, the Taishou of Changsha, and then Zhang Hu and Chen Sheng, the old department of Huangzu, who owned 20,000 people in Jiangxia and sent soldiers to plunder everywhere, and now there is a new field to order Liu Bei to capture Nanyang, Jingzhou's original peaceful place no longer exists, and you have to summon you to discuss it by extraordinary means. ”

Although Fu Xun is dressed as a scribe, he is a native of Niyang, in the north, in the border county, open-minded by nature, and with a strong figure, he immediately arched his hand and said: "The Prime Minister summoned him, there must be something important, the country of Chu is in turmoil, my generation has avoided the chaos in Jingzhou for several years, and has received a lot of favor from the Marquis of Chu. ”

Kuai Yue still admires Fu Xun very much, after all, his open-minded attitude makes him feel very comfortable when he sees it. He sighed and said loudly: "The words of the public have won my heart, and I think the old lord will definitely feel relieved when he is under the Nine Springs." A few months ago, Liu Bei came to take refuge, and the old lord remembered that he was of royal blood, so he took him in, and loved him even more. How do you know that this person is humane, and the old lord's bones are not cold, so he rebelled, and has occupied the whole county of Nanyang, and is recruiting troops and horses, wanting to try to Xiangyang. Seeing that he was unkind and unjust, the lord ordered to send troops to attack Liu Bei. However, since Cai Mao and Zhang Yun were killed in battle, and Wang Wei defected to the Yan army, there were not many generals to appoint. I know your abilities very well, so I recommend it to the lord and appoint them as generals, and I want to make the eight soldiers divide into four ways and go to attack Liu Bei together, I don't know what you think? ”

The eight people present have all received the favor of Liu Biao, regardless of whether they are officials or not, at this time, Kuai Yue was invited, so naturally they would not sit idly by, and they all bowed their hands and said: "I am willing to listen to the dispatch of the Prime Minister." ”

Kuai Yue immediately smiled and said: "Okay, Du Xian, Pei Qian, He Qia, and Gao Gan, order the four of you to be generals, with Du Xun as the main general, each with 5,000 soldiers, and the soldiers will attack Nanyang in four ways." Mr. Zi General is the military division, Han Song, Liu Xian, and Fu Xun are to join the army, and at three o'clock in the afternoon tomorrow, the troops will be sent to Nanyang. ”

Du Xian, Pei Qian, He Qia, Gao Gan, Xu Shao, Han Song, Liu Xian, and Fu Xun said in unison: "No! ”

……

Nanyang, Wancheng.

Liu Bei stood on the city tower, stroking the big banner of "Liu" with gold characters on a red background floating on the city, and felt melancholy in his heart.

"Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, I have been on the move. It took four years and thousands of miles to reach the fertile land of Jingzhou, and until today, there is a real city of its own, no matter what. I want to take Jingzhou and achieve the great cause in my heart. Liu Bei looked at the lonely sky and said to himself.

At this time, a scout rushed from outside the city in a panic, and as soon as he entered the city, he went straight to the city tower.

"Lord, the big thing is not good, Liu Qi sent 20,000 troops, and the soldiers marched in four ways. The momentum is huge and unstoppable. The front vanguard Gao Gan, and Qia first broke the Mi general Yu Anzhong, Tian General Yu Huyang, and then attacked Chaoyang from behind, Zhuge General saw that the enemy was strong, and then took the initiative to retreat, and now the three generals are surrounded in Xinye, less than half of the three thousand soldiers and horses are left, and they specially sent a small one to ask for help. As soon as the scout went up to the tower. He immediately said with a panicked face.

Liu Bei frowned and hurriedly asked, "Who is the leader of the army?" Who is his advisor? ”

"Liu Qi is the main general of Du Xi. Pei Qian, He Qia, and Gao Gan were deputy generals, Xu Shao was the military division, and Han Song, Liu Xian, and Fu Xun were the soldiers, including 5,000 cavalry and 15,000 infantry. ”

Liu Bei said: "The enemy is menacing, you go back quickly." Tell Zhuge Jin and let him hold on to Xinye City, although Xinye City is small, but after a few months of repair, the city defense is enough to support more than a month. There was plenty of food and grass in the city, so I summoned soldiers and horses to rush to Xinye to rescue in person. ”

"No. Small retirement! ”

The scout changed horses instead of people, got down from the city tower, rode directly on a fast horse, and ran away as if he was flying.

Liu Bei realized the severity of the matter, and immediately asked Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to be called, leaving Mi Zhu, Jian Yong and a thousand soldiers to defend the city.

……

In Xinye City, Zhuge Jin is fully responsible for the city defense matters, and the first calf is not afraid of tigers, and he is much more stable than Mi Fang when he starts to do things. He pressed the long sword in his waist, looked at the soldiers of the Chu army stationed outside the city, his brows furrowed, and he thought in his heart: "There are capable people in the Chu army, who actually attacked the east and the west, first broke Anzhong and Huyang, and then attacked me from behind. ”

"Strategist, is there a way to break the enemy?" Tian Yu is the same age as Zhuge Jin, but he seems to be very capable, he grew up in Youzhou, he has been skilled in bows and horses since he was a child, since he followed Liu Bei, he has never complained, participated in many battles, and also honed his will, making this young man look extremely mature and stable.

Zhuge Jin squinted and saw that Tian Yu was coming, so he said: "The enemy army of 20,000 people has not lost a single soldier, just using the cavalry to sneak attack Anzhong and Huyang, which has caused our army to lose troops and generals, and the infantry has not yet been dispatched, it seems that the enemy army has not used all its strength." What does it mean to besiege but not to attack? ”

Tian Yu said: "Could it be that you are waiting for reinforcements to arrive and attack together?" ”

"Nope! Judging from the well-trained 20,000 soldiers of the Chu army, there is no need for reinforcements to deal with the more than 10,000 miscellaneous soldiers collected from Li Feng. What's more, the person who gave advice to the Chu army was Xu Shao, who was a famous man in the sea, and he was wise and wise, and if he wanted to attack Xinye, he could capture it in less than three days. But now that they are besieging and not attacking, I can't figure out the truth of this. Zhuge Jin said.

"It's very simple, this is Xu Shao's plan to save Zhao from Wei Wei, why can't my brother see it?" An immature child's voice sounded from behind Zhuge Jin, and Zhuge Liang, whose face was like a crown of jade, didn't know when he came to the city tower, and was looking at Zhuge Jin with an evil smile.

Zhuge Jin turned his head and saw Zhuge Liang standing there, so he said, "Kong Ming? What are you doing here? ”

Zhuge Liang smiled: "Brother is here, why can't I come?" Now that the enemy is present, the entire Xinye City is panicked, how can I sit idly by? ”

Zhuge Jin said: "The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, since you are here, help me analyze, what is the next move of the enemy army?" ”

"Xu Shao is now using the strategy of encircling Wei to save Zhao, first surround us, and then send people to Wancheng to pretend to be scouts, lure the lord out, and then take advantage of the weakness to enter, as long as Wancheng is taken, the lord will lead the troops to wander in the field, there is no danger to defend, and it will naturally be broken by the strong soldiers of the enemy. Li Feng's subordinates are all incompetent rats, untrained, and it may be okay to defend the city, but when it comes to the field, I am afraid that they will fall into the wind. Zhuge Liang analyzed.

After hearing this, Tian Yu hurriedly said: "Then I will lead my troops to break through." Go and send letters to the Lord. ”

"I'm afraid it's too late." Zhuge Liang shook his head and said.

After hearing this, Tian Yu frowned and asked, "Then what should I do?" ”

Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "Don't panic, the lord has experienced a hundred battles, and he is supplemented by the relevant generals and General Zhang, and he will definitely find the clues of the enemy." If the lord can't even find out about this, then why should I have the whole clan come to take refuge? Now Xinye is safe for the time being, as long as the lord's side does not move, Wancheng is not lost, and within ten days, the enemy army will not attack Xinye. ”

"Kong Ming, after listening to you, I was stunned. Within ten days, we must first break through the enemy's encirclement. General Tian, you go and call General Mi, I have orders. "No!"

After Tian Yu left, Zhuge Jin said to Zhuge Liang: "Do you have any strategy to break the enemy?" ”

Zhuge Liang said: "My brother is already in his chest, why should I draw snakes?" Brother, I'll go back first, and tomorrow morning, I'll be at home waiting for news of my brother's triumph. ”

After speaking. Zhuge Liang turned to leave, walking on his calves. leisurely descended the castle tower.

Zhuge Jin looked at the back of Zhuge Liang leaving, and secretly thought: "Kong Ming has seen things so thoroughly at a young age, it seems that my Zhuge clan will inevitably have a world-famous genius." ”

In the north of the city, Tian Yu personally rode a horse to find Mi Fang, who was guarding the north gate, and went up to the city tower. Hug his fists and said: "General Mi, I came to invite the general to the south gate on the order of the military division." ”

"Don't go! He Zhuge Jin is a yellow-mouthed child, and he really uses chicken feathers as an arrow? When Lao Tzu led his troops to fight, he still wore open crotch pants! "Mi Fang is arrogant and authentic.

Tian Yu and Mi Fang have worked together for many years, so they naturally know Mi Fang's temper. Then he smiled and said: "General Mi, anyway, Zhuge Jin is also a military general appointed by the lord himself, if we don't obey his dispatch, if the lord blames him in the future, I'm afraid it will be difficult to bear it." Besides, now that the enemy is present, we should hold together and work together. Zhuge already has a plan to retreat from the enemy, let me invite General Mi over. ”

Mi Fang thought for a while and said, "Okay, you lead the way in front, and I'll be there in a while." Tian Yu nodded and said, "Then I will greet the general in the south of the city." ”

As soon as the words fell, Tian Yu returned to the south gate, climbed the city tower, and hugged his fists and said: "Military advisor, General Mi will be here in a while." ”

Zhuge Jin sneered and said, "I'm afraid it may not be." General Tian, you and I can go downstairs for a meal first, and then go upstairs before we are full. ”

Tian Yu's face was stunned, and he hurriedly said: "Military Division, what should we do if General Mi comes here and can't find us for a while?" ”

Zhuge Jin walked to Tian Yu's side, patted Tian Yu's shoulder gently, and said with a smile: "General Tian, don't worry, when I finish eating, General Mi may not be able to come, you and I may be able to take a break and recuperate." Anyway, the time to break the enemy is tonight, and there is no difference between a little earlier and a little later. ”

Tian Yu had to say that it was difficult to admire Zhuge Jin, and he was able to see through Mi Fang's essence after only a short contact with Mi Fang for less than a day, which really impressed him. Although he got Mi Fang's consent, he didn't dare to guarantee that Mi Fang would really come over for a while, after all, Mi Fang was Liu Bei's brother-in-law, except for Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Mi Zhu, he didn't seem to pay attention to anyone.

Zhuge Jin took Tian Yu down the city tower and ordered the soldiers to patrol, so he asked people to get a few side dishes and a pot of wine, and sat in the barracks to drink.

"General Tian is from Youzhou, right?" Zhuge Jin asked casually while pouring wine for Tian Yu.

Tian Yu nodded and said: "Exactly, I am a native of Yongnu County, Yuyang County, during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, there was a plague in Yongnu County, and half of the people in the city were infected with the plague. Later, the lord went to attach himself to Gongsun Zhan, passing by where I was, I saw that the lord was good-looking, so I have been following around, and now I think about it, it has been almost three or four years. ”

Zhuge Jin said: "General Tian has worked hard, I respect General Tian for a cup." ”

The two toasted together and drank a glass of wine together.

When he put down the wine glass, Zhuge Jin asked, "General Tian seems to be following the lord alone, have you ever missed your relatives at home?" ”

"I don't want it to be false, since I left home, I rarely go back to visit my mother, and I can often go back in Youzhou before, but now it's far away, and it's difficult to see each other. However, my husband has ambitions in all directions, and when he makes a contribution, my mother will understand me. ”

"What if someone uses your mother to blackmail you in the future?" After Zhuge Jin heard this, he asked quietly.

Tian Yu frowned, put down the wine glass that came to his lips again, and asked, "Military Master, what do you mean by this?" ”

Zhuge Jin said with a smile: "Today I caught a fine work, which was inserted by the Yan army, Yanhou Linnan has been called king in Jizhou, thirteen states in the world, he alone accounted for three and a half, attacking Goguryeo in the east, making Dongyi annexed, chasing Xianbei in the north made Hu Lu dare not go south, and the west and Xiongnu made it possible to merge the state without commotion. Now that he has slapped himself in Jingzhou, he must be very concerned about the actions of the lord. The general is a native of Youzhou, and his relatives are all in the territory of Yan Kingdom, if one day, Lin Nan, the king of Yan, sent someone to bring a letter, and used the general's relatives to coerce the general to leave the lord, I don't know where the general will go? ”

After Tian Yu listened, he knew why Zhuge Jin invited himself to drink, because he was worried that he would betray Liu Bei. However, he has always been filial, even if he doesn't want to be prosperous and rich, he has to care about the safety of his relatives. He frowned, thought about it for a while, and never answered.

Zhuge Jin smiled: "I roughly understand what General Tian meant. However, please rest assured that since I have this worry, I will definitely find a way to relieve this worry, tonight's battle is related to the survival of our army, if the general does not fight to kill the enemy and disperse those enemies, I am afraid that it will be difficult to see his relatives again in the future. There are three unfilial pieties, no queen is the greatest, General Tian has not yet married, he should do his best to protect himself, and the white-haired people in the family of General Tian in the province send black-haired people. ”

After hearing this, Tian Yu was deeply moved, and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely do my best to kill the enemy tonight, and I will come back intact to see the military advisor." ”

"Very good, come, have another drink. But don't be greedy, drink a little and get drunk. ”

Tian Yu nodded, just like that, he felt that the distance between himself and Zhuge Jin had narrowed a lot.

The two of them drank only three glasses of wine, and when they were full, they re-ascended the tower, and looked at the many simple camps under the trees outside, and both of them felt a kind of pressure in their hearts.

It was almost evening, Mi Fang came over, and when she saw that Zhuge Jin and Tian Yu were there, she said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm late, there are more things at the north gate, and it's a little tricky to deal with. ”

Zhuge Jin waved his hand and said, "It's okay, even if I come later, I don't have anything to do." But since the general is here, please listen to me. ”

Mi Fang smiled against her will: "Strategist, please speak clearly." ”

Zhuge Jin said: "Now it seems that there are 20,000 troops stationed outside the city, but in fact there are only 35,000 people, and it is just that the enemy army is bluffing. The enemy army has set up so many camps, and each camp must leave people to guard it, so that the troops will be dispersed, which is undoubtedly a good opportunity for our army. As long as our army concentrates all its forces, storms a little, and then attacks other camps by the way, when a surprise attack is launched at night, the enemy will certainly not know how many soldiers and horses our army has, and while killing the enemy, they will set fire to all the camps outside the city, and the siege will be lifted. ”

After Mi Fang heard this, he sneered suspiciously, and glanced at the camps outside the city, with flags fluttering, and the Chu soldiers in the camps shuttling back and forth, and said: "The military division is not joking, it is obviously surrounded by a large army, if it is really a suspicious strategy, why don't I see it at all?"
