Chapter 135: The Messenger of True Thoughts

That night, Cao Ren personally took his personal guards and thousands of silk cloths filled with information about Jingzhou, and secretly ran to the edge of Guan Yu's camp.

"General, do you really want to do this?" The pro-general looked at the cloth in his hand, with a tangled face, although he also heard his own master say that this was a secret order from the king of Wei, but this was a bit too unbelievable.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Cao Ren slapped the head of the pro-general, although Niu Jin had already let him go, but speaking of conscience, in Cao Ren's heart, Niu Jin, the pro-general, was still very reliable.

Seeing that Cao Ren was already a little angry, the pro-general didn't dare to say any more nonsense, so he directly waved his hand, and the pro-soldiers behind him rushed up, and then tied the cloth to the headless arrow, bent the bow and shot towards Guan Yu's Jingzhou army camp.

In the middle of the night, a rain of arrows suddenly appeared on the Jingzhou military camp, which lasted for nearly a quarter of an hour, and suddenly the entire Jingzhou military camp was in chaos, and there were constant shouts and cheers coming from inside.

"General, it's time to go!" The general listened to the Jingzhou military camp that was already noisy, "If you don't leave those guys inside, we'll be in danger!" ”

Cao Ren glanced at his general angrily, "Why are you so daring?" ”

But after all, Cao Ren still waved his hand and quickly withdrew with his subordinates, and he still had a lot of things to do behind.

At this time, the camp of the Jingzhou army was in the big tent of the Chinese army.

"Jun Hou, this is shot in from the outside!" Zhou Cang handed a piece of cloth to Guan Yu, "It is written..... wrote about Jingzhou, and now some of the soldiers outside are already panicking! ”

Guan Yu took the cloth very indifferently and looked at it silently.

"Let's go and appease the soldiers first, and tell them that the old man will give them an explanation tomorrow!" Guan Yu put away the cloth silently, and then closed his eyes again and stopped talking.

Recently, Guan Yu has been very silent, no matter how Xu Huang provokes outside, he will never attack, he will guard the camp, and he has allocated a large amount of military rations in advance, which is enough for him to use for another half a year.

Zhou Cang left, and now that Guan Yu is silent, almost all the overall situation of the Jingzhou Army is in charge of Zhou Cang, the vice president.

Guan Yu waited until Zhou Cang left, and then sighed deeply, and then looked at the top of the big tent with blank eyes.

"Lu Meng, you are really fast!"

In the early morning of the next day, Guan Yu appeared on the school grounds, looking at the soldiers standing straight below but with a panicked look on their faces, Guan Yu suddenly felt a little sorry for them.

Although Guan Yu knew that he was very good to them, but now for the plan in his heart, he gambled the lives of all of them, Guan Yu looked at the young faces below, some of them were the Jingzhou Navy Army that had been fighting with him for half a year, and more were the Jingzhou Army that had just been transferred.

"Jingzhou, the old man already knows, the cloth you got, whether it is true or not, the old man does not know, but the old man will not coax you to wait, today, you spontaneously selected more than ten people, accompanied Zhao Lei to Jiangling, and then whether it is true or not, you will know!"

After Guan Yu said this, the soldiers below suddenly became all shocked, they are not new recruits, and they also know that the army is outside, if there is a loss in the rear, it is the most deadly, so everyone feels that their main general will definitely block the news, conceal it, and then lead them to attack Fancheng, only in this way can they have a place to live.

But none of them thought that Guan Yu would dare to unceremoniously let the army choose its own people and go to Jiangling to find out, this is no longer treating soldiers well, this is a joke with their own lives.

But when it should have been dissuaded, there was no movement now, not to mention anything else, Yi returned to Yizhou, Wang Fu and Ma Liang were rushing towards Yizhou, and now it is estimated that they have entered the mediocrity.

Liao Hua is now sending a letter to Shangyong, and now Guan Yu only has Zhao Lei, Zhou Cang, Guan Ping's three generals, Zhou Cang knows the whole situation, Guan Ping is a stuffy gourd, as for Zhao Lei, he really doesn't know anything, but as Guan Yu's henchman, Zhao Lei is most famous for only listening to orders and not saying a word.

Soon, ten soldiers were elected, each of them was a veteran of a hundred battles, and their character and qualifications were excellent, and their positions may not be high, but they were the highest in prestige among the soldiers.

Guan Yu looked at the ten people in front of him, he stepped off the stage, walked in front of everyone, and slapped them on the shoulder.

"Remember, no matter what, you will come back alive!"

"The old man will write a letter to Lu Meng, if Jingzhou really falls into the hands of the Jiangdong dog thief, the old man will try his best to save the lives of Er and other family members, you remember to be patient with everything, or that sentence, come back alive!"

"So..... Let's go! ”

Guan Yu wanted to say something more, but looking at their still young faces, he just waved his hand weakly, "You are all the hope of Jingzhou, remember, alive, come back alive, there are still people waiting for your news here!" ”

"No!"

Zhao Lei took ten Jingzhou soldiers and set out on the road to Jiangling with the letter written by Guan Yu to LΓΌ Meng.

Guan Yu is still the same, let the army continue to inspect, and continue to maintain that strict and guarded look, everyone knows that no one's mind is still in the barracks, and Du Jia is thinking about Jiangling, Nanjun, and Lingling, thinking about the family members who may fall into the hands of the Jiangdong Army.

At this time, unlike Guan Yu's army, Cao Jun finally began to liquidate after no pressure.

"Yang Xiu!" The first thing the envoy of Cao Cao, the king of Wei, did when he arrived at the front was to ask about it, "Why didn't you see Yang Dezu coming to greet him?" ”

Cao Ren looked at this envoy from the palace of the prince of Cao Pi, and the corners of his mouth glanced unconsciously, "Yang Dezu communicated with Guan Yu before, and he was suspected of collaborating with the enemy, and he has been taken down by General Xu Huang and Xu Gongming!" ”

When he said this, Xu Huang next to him couldn't help but roll his eyes.

He still remembers that he had slept well that night, and then he heard that the Jingzhou army was like a bombed camp, all kinds of noisy, followed by the whole army battle, tossed for most of the night, the Jingzhou army was not seen, but the people of Fancheng threw Yang Xiu, who was trapped in a dumpling, and Cao Ren's handwriting.

Although Xu Huang didn't quite understand what Cao Ren was doing, but looking at Yang Xiu, who was tied up like a zongzi, he also knew that this guy was finished, and in the same way, after Yang Xiu, who was the mastermind of Cao Zhi's son, fell, it meant that this person was no longer in the consideration of King Wei.

Seeing Wu Zhen's gaze, Xu Huang could only nod heavily, "Yang Xiu's guy dared to collaborate with the enemy, and the last general took him down without anger for a while!" ”

Wu Zhen nodded, and looked at Cao Ren again, "King Wei is about to go south in a few days, and he will have to trouble General Cao Ren at that time." ”

"Sir, rest assured, the top and bottom of Fancheng have been cleared of the remnants of the enemy, and I promise that there will be no danger to King Wei!"

Wu Zhen also nodded, he didn't talk much, he was just an envoy of the King of Wei, or a strategist from the prince's mansion, if he said more, he annoyed Cao Ren, and he didn't have good fruit to eat, just confirmed for their prince that Yang Xiu had been taken, then the task was completed, and the rest still depended on this group of generals.

Cao Ren also knew that the greetings were over, and the rest was not for this messenger to dare to intervene, so as soon as he stretched out his big hand, he invited Wu Zhen into Fancheng, and the rest was to wait for the arrival of Cao Cao, the king of Wei.

Besides, Zhao Lei and the others, after a day and a night of hurrying, finally rushed to the outside of Jiangling City.

Looking at the many banners such as "Wu" and "Lu" on the head of the city, everyone's hearts couldn't help but sigh.

"Don't make a noise for a while, follow up with a certain family!" Zhao Lei greeted him, and then led everyone to the city gate.

"Stop!" The guards of Gangneung had already seen them, and the moment they approached the city gate, the arrows were shot at their feet, and the tail of the arrows was still trembling.

"Jingzhou Hanshou Pavilion waits for General Guan Yuguan to sit under the Governor Zhao Lei, and sends a letter to Governor Lu Meng on the order of Jun Hou!" Zhao Lei strode forward, stretched out his hand and shook the letter that Guan Yu had given him towards Wu Bing on the city wall.

"Wait!" The Wu army on the city wall did not have any good impression of the Jingzhou army under their group of Guan Yu, and after a loud shout, they went to find the main general Lu Meng to report.

Although this attitude made them dislike it very much, but thinking of Guan Yu's entrustment before leaving, they still chose to wait quietly under the city.

"Squeak, squeak..."

They didn't wait long, the gate of Jiangling was opened, and out of it came out a group of soldiers and horses, led by the current governor of Jiangdong, who first captured Changsha and Guiyang, and then captured LΓΌ Meng and Lu Ziming of Lingling in Nanjun.

"Zhao Tidudu, long time no see!" Lu Meng laughed and stepped forward, as the governor of Jiangdong and one of Guan Yu's old opponents for so many years, Lu Meng not only knew Guan Yu, but also knew the generals under Guan Yu's command very well.

However, Lu Meng's enthusiasm was destined to not be responded to here by Zhao Lei, and Zhao Lei directly handed over Guan Yu's letter, "My family's letter from Jun Hou to Lu Dudu, if there is a reply, I will bring it back to Jun Hou later!" ”

"Haha.." Lu Meng, who was in love with a cold buttocks, did not feel the slightest annoyance, but happily took Guan Yu's letter and silk, and then said to Zhao Lei, "I think the general is also tired from the journey, go down to rest first, and these brothers, also go down to rest first, if your home is in Jiangling, you can also go home to see!" ”

After finishing speaking, Lu Meng directly let go of half of his body, and waved his hand at the same time, so that the soldiers who followed him out also gave way to the road.

After Zhao Lei saw this scene, he thought of the explanation that Guan Yu had given him before, and said to the soldiers behind him, "If you want to go home, go by yourself, and we will go back to the Jingzhou military camp early tomorrow morning, you don't have to miss the time!" ”

The soldier, who had been unable to wait for a long time, quickly thanked Zhao Lei after hearing this, and then slapped the horse's belly vigorously, so that he could return home faster and see if his ID family was doing well.

As for Zhao Lei, he didn't have a home in Jiangling, so he walked directly from the middle of the Wu army, and now he wants to go to see what is going on in Jiangling, and he also has to inquire how Jiangling fell into the hands of Wu Jun silently.

Zhao Lei, who entered Jiangling City, was surprised at first, not because Wu Jun was strong or because there was anything miserable in Jiangling.

But Jiangling is almost no different from when he left, and even those people are walking on the street by themselves, the only difference is that there are many more patrolling troops on the street, which is the Wu army, and the faces of the people are more or less terrified.

"General Zhao?" Lu Meng came up from behind, "Why don't you go to the mansion with a certain person to rest?" ”

Zhao Lei shook his head and directly rejected Lu Meng's invitation, "No, Zhao has something to do, does Governor Lu Meng need someone to follow?" ”

"Haha, you don't have to, General Zhao is at his own convenience!" Lu Meng waved his hand happily, no matter what he wanted to do, he took his subordinates straight back to his mansion, which was also Guan Yu's previous mansion.

Zhao Lei looked at Lu Meng and Wu Jun who had already walked away, and couldn't help but sneer, he knew that although there was no one around him now, he didn't know how many people and how many pairs of eyes were staring at him, the governor of the Jingzhou army.

"Humph!" Zhao Lei snorted coldly, and then rode a horse on the streets of Jiangling, and many people saw him consciously flashing to both sides, with all kinds of doubts in their eyes.

Gangneung garrisons the General's Mansion, Mifu.

This is where Zhao Lei is coming, looking at the clean and tidy Mi Mansion with the door closed, Zhao Lei is sure that Jiangling has been lost so silently, and the owner of this mansion seems to be inseparable.

Hoodoor, and it was quickly answered.

When the door of Mi Fang's mansion was opened, the housekeeper, who was Mi Fang's lieutenant, was obviously stunned when he saw Zhao Lei standing outside the door, and then sighed, and then welcomed Zhao Lei into Mi Fang's mansion.

"Where is Mi Fang?" Zhao Lei looked at the empty mansion and asked directly about Mi Fang's whereabouts.

The deputy general was not polite, and led him directly towards the backyard, "The general is in the backyard, and there is no one in the house now, just the old slave and the second son, as well as Miss Guan of the Jun Hou family." ”

When Zhao Lei heard "Miss Guan", he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, "Where is Miss Yinping here?" ”

"Hmm!" The adjutant general nodded, "When the Jiangdong Army came suddenly, I waited.... It fell, and then the second son risked his life to threaten that Lu Meng, so he asked Miss Guan to come over, and since then, Miss Guan has lived in the house, and the second son has never left. ”

Zhao Lei nodded, maybe it was Mi Fang's sister Mrs. Mi, Mi Fang's reputation among this group of ladies and ladies has always been good, plus for so many years, not only did there not have any rumors about him, but there was not even a lady, resulting in him being more than forty years old, but every heir.

Now Miss Yinping is here in Mi Fang, although Mi Fang's surrender made Zhao Lei very angry, but at least he knew that this daughter of his own monarch should be able to be saved.

As soon as I entered the backyard, I saw Mi Fang who was practicing a gun, don't look at Mi Fang is already more than forty years old, but a big iron gun is playing, it is also a tiger and a tiger, and the end is extremely powerful.

"Why are you here? You asked you to come? After Mi Fang saw Zhao Lei, he didn't seem so surprised, put away the big gun, took the towel handed to him by the deputy general and wiped his sweat, and walked to Zhao Lei's side at the same time, "Jingzhou's affairs, Jun Hou knows?" ”

"Cao Jun wrote the matter of Jingzhou on the cloth, and then shot it into the camp of our army, and overnight, the entire battalion knew that Jiangdong had invaded Jingzhou, but they did not write it."

Mi Fang nodded and sighed, "It seems that Jiangdong has also had a plan, I think I will contact the Central Plains before I come." ”

Zhao Lei looked at Mi Fang, who didn't have the slightest sense of guilt, and couldn't help asking, "General Mi Fang, why did you surrender Jiangdong?" ”

Mi Fang looked at Zhao Lei, chuckled, and naturally said the reason, "I'm afraid of death, I'm very afraid of death, it's as simple as that." ”

There is no other high-sounding reason, there is no saying that Guan Yu will be blamed if he does not surrender, there is no saying that Fu Shiren surrendered first, introducing the Jiangdong army into Nanjun and leading it to Jiangling City, nor does it say that Fu Shiren persuaded him hard, most of the civil and military forces in Jingzhou have surrendered, and so on.

But just such a simple sentence, Zhao Lei didn't know how to refute it, whether it was an excuse or not, Mi Fang was telling the truth.

"Hey." After Zhao Lei sighed, he asked, "Is Miss Yinping okay?" ”

"Rest in the room, she hasn't seen anyone recently, if you want, you can go to her, I guess she was also scared, suddenly such a big change."

Zhao Lei nodded, arched his hand at Mi Fang, and went to knock on the door of the silver screen.

Guan Yinping, who locked himself in the room, finally opened the door after hearing Zhao Lei's voice and identity, looking at the very haggard eldest lady, Zhao Lei was also extremely distressed.

Zhao Lei told her about the situation of Guan Yu's army, and then told Guan Yinping not to worry, they would find a way to go her back, and after appeasing her, he withdrew from Guan Yinping's room, and when the door was closed, Guan Yinping, who had been holding on, finally couldn't help crying through the door.

Although she tried her best to endure it, she still let Zhao Lei outside the door hear it, but even after hearing this, Zhao Lei didn't say anything more, but was ready to leave, he still had a lot to do in Jiangling.

However, when Zhao Lei walked to Mi Fang's side, he was suddenly stopped by Mi Fang.

"Tell Guan Yunchang that I will protect his daughter until the person who picks her up arrives, and it is very painful for my daughter to lose her father early." After Mi Fang said such a very unobtrusive sentence, he asked the deputy general to open the door to see off the guests.

Before Zhao Lei left, he took a deep look at Mi Fang again, this lord Liu Bei's brother-in-law, this general who has followed the lord to fight in the south and the north for many years, and is still willing to stay in Jiangling as a small guard.

"General Mi Fang, take care!"
