Chapter 44: Convergence

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it entered the time of the second hour, that is, around the fifth watch.

At this time, Deng Ai raised his head and watched the black shadow in the air gradually dissipate, turning towards dawn.

"You... Wait... Already... Exam... Thinking about it all night, but... Decided? ”

Deng Ai's face was cold, cold, and a hint of murder had appeared in his eyes.

It is his plan to subdue the water thieves for his own use!

But this does not mean that Deng Ai will tolerate it unlimitedly, if this water thief refuses to surrender, then he will naturally not be merciful.

Seeing that the enemy's main general had secretly killed, Liu Jia couldn't help but sink in his heart, and looked around at the look of survival on the faces of his subordinates.

After thinking for a moment, Liu Jia also put down the so-called face, took a deep breath, took the lead in throwing away the battle knife in his palm, took a few steps forward, and arched his hand: "Liu Jia, the leader of the water thieves, is willing to lead the people to surrender, and I hope to take them in, don't kill them all!" ”

At this moment, the surrounding besieged water thieves and others were moved, and their faces suddenly showed sadness.

"Big leader, don't submit to the thief army, face is important."

"Our brothers are not afraid of life and death, and are willing to fight bravely with the enemy, and die without regrets!"

"Chief, don't surrender."

At this moment, everyone roared with righteous indignation, and its momentum made the Jingzhou army surrounding them also touched.

Obviously, Liu Jia, as the leader, is highly respected in the thief army on weekdays.

Now, for the sake of the life and death of his sons, he did not hesitate to put down his face and surrender to the thief leader who was also a thief.

This in itself is a great shame!

It must be known that there are many battles between the thief army, and on weekdays, no one obeys anyone, and it is very difficult to get one thief army to surrender to the other!

Hearing this, Liu Jia looked around, glanced at it, and said with a smile: "Brothers, if I can lose face and get back your life, it will be worth it." ”

"How can face be compared to life?"

"Haha!"

Just as the thieves were confiding in each other, Deng Ai walked out abruptly and laughed.

After a pause, he said aloud, "You... Wait... Look... Surrender the thieves... Shame on you... Shame, but... Ben will tell you to wait... Submit to our army, you... Wait... No regrets! ”

When the words fell, Deng Ai's smile became brighter and brighter, and he understood at this time that the water thieves were only resisting that they were going to surrender to their former mortal enemies.

It is precisely in this way that the water thieves will resist one after another, and their anger will be vented!

"It seems that the water thieves are treating our army as a thief army."

At this moment, Deng Ai's face was relaxed, and he groaned secretly.

It's just that this didn't say anything, Deng Ai has been disguising his generals as thieves since he ambushed Cao's army in the jungle, and he has never played the banner of the Jingzhou army.

How can the water thieves know their true identities?

Seeing the water thieves whispering, the previous military marquis stood up with a knife and shouted: "Our army is the Jingzhou army, and the elite soldiers under the command of Guan Junhou are the soldiers. ”

"Now I am going north with the major general to carry out the military order!"

"Do you think it's a shame to surrender to our army at this time?"

With a loud shout, the distance between 100 meters was extremely clear, and the water thieves and others also looked at each other.

"What, Jingzhou Army?"

"How can they be Jingzhou Army, if they are, how can they disguise themselves as bandits?"

For a while, the water thieves and others continued to whisper and discuss privately.

Hearing this, Liu Jia was not too surprised, thought about it, and then stepped forward, walked to Deng Ai's side, and bowed: "The villain sees the young general." ”

As early as the fierce battle, he saw that the Jingzhou soldiers were well-groomed and strong, and they were by no means ordinary bandits.

Therefore, when I heard that it was Jingzhou Jun's thoughts, I was relieved.

"Major General? Deng Dudu is the governor of our army of 1,000 people, and the major general has not yet arrived. ”

At this time, before Deng Ai could speak, the military marquis next to him chuckled and said.

"Huh?"

After finishing speaking, Liu Jia was suddenly shocked, and said secretly: "Isn't this? ”

"What kind of character is Guan Ping, who broke Xiangyang in ten days?"

His thoughts gradually drifted away, and he also had a strong curiosity and even admiration for Guan Ping at this time.

The reason why Liu Jia decided to lead the people to respond to the Jingzhou army, in addition to the destruction of the Seventh Army of Cao's army, the most important reason was the determination he made after learning about the record of breaking Xiangyang on the tenth day.

Liu Jia thought to himself: "Since Guan Ping was able to break through Xiangyang City in ten days with more than thousands of people, it seems that the Northern Expedition of the Jingzhou Army has a great chance of winning!" ”

Not only that, but at this time, he was even more shocked, this person in front of him was outstandingly resourceful, and he calculated Cao Jun and him one after another, but he was only a general under Guan Ping.

In other words, the ability of the generals under his command is so outstanding, so how powerful should Guan Ping be?

As for the authenticity of the Jingzhou army, he did not doubt it now, a neat army of soldiers appeared here, and they were still fighting against the Cao army, so how could it be fake.

"I originally planned to go south to return to Guan Yu, but now that I have met his son Guan Ping, maybe the turnaround will be even greater."

At this time, Liu Jia thought for a long time and said secretly.

The purpose of Guan Ping's leading the Jingzhou army to the north, he didn't have to guess at all, he knew that it must be the soldiers coming to Xu Du to contain Cao Jun's attention.

Otherwise, there will be no point in the Jingzhou army going north!

As the news of the Jingzhou army was confirmed, Liu Jia was overjoyed and did ideological work to the public.

It took a moment for Deng Ai to successfully collect the water thieves.

Next, Deng Ai did not relax his vigilance, and the generals were divided into two, one side was stationed in the water village, and the other part returned to the village to rest.

After a night of fierce fighting, the soldiers were extremely tired physically and mentally, but there was still a fresh force of Cao's army in Biyang City, which was dozens of miles away.

Deng Ai didn't dare to be careless at all, for fear that he would suddenly be attacked by Cao's army.

The night passed, the dawn slowly rose, the Cao army did not take the opportunity to attack, and the two armies were safe!

………

It is only about ten miles away from the water village on the surface of the water, and at this time the fog is shrouded, and thousands of Jingzhou soldiers gather together, supporting the fishing boats, and marching high.

Since the soldiers sent by Deng Ai went south to report the general's situation, Guan Ping did not hesitate to gather the people along the coast, did not continue to hide, and moved forward quickly.

After all, Biyang is already an important town south of Xudu, and if the Jingzhou army wants to attack Xudu, this place must be controlled in their hands.

Therefore, since Deng Ai had already approached Biyang first, Guan Ping also felt that there was no need to continue to hide.

At this moment, Guan Ping stood on a fishing boat, his eyes locked, staring at the shore shrouded in white mist, silent for a long time!

"Shizai reported that Xu Du has sent soldiers south to sit here, so how to take Biyang?"

Originally, what Guan Ping wanted at the beginning was to quietly go north, take advantage of the fact that the Cao army had not yet reacted, seize Biyang City first, and then recruit the rebellious thief army to expand its strength and coerce Xu Du.

But now, Cao Jun is obviously one step ahead of him, stabilizing the city, and it will be difficult to capture it.

At this time, only when Guan Ping was thinking a lot, Pound from the side was also silent!

is about to coerce Xu Du, fight with his former comrades, and is more likely to meet his son on the battlefield.

Thinking of this, Pound couldn't help but feel a headache and was at a loss!
