Chapter 733: Jingzhou (10)
"Major General, the military division is back!"
"Really? Where's the strategist? Please come in! No, Ben will pick it up himself! β
Since receiving the news that Dunse was attacked, Guan Ping was quite worried. There are concerns about Dunse, but more of a concern for Maleonn. For many years, it is not an exaggeration to say that Ma Liang is second only to Guan Yu, including Guan Ping, and he also thinks that he cannot be compared.
At this time, there was a chant from outside the hospital-
"The major general doesn't have to greet his subordinates, his subordinates have come uninvited."
Guan Ping immediately put aside the guards who reported the news and walked quickly to the gate of the courtyard.
"Strategist!"
Hearing this title, Ma Liang felt a little embarrassed, because he came back as a lobbyist this time.
Without waiting for Ma Liang to think about it, Guan Ping pulled his arm and said with concern: "Since the news of the sudden loss of the military division a few days ago, I thought that the military division had an accident. β
Ma Liang didn't dare to tell the truth at the gate of the courtyard, but said: "There is General Lao's concern." β
Guan Ping felt a little weird, but he only thought that Ma Liang had escaped from death, and his mood had not yet calmed down, so he hurriedly invited him to the hospital.
The two took their seats one after another.
Ma Liang pondered for a moment and said, "Please also ask the major general to retreat." β
"Huh?"
Guan Ping hesitated for a moment, but still waved back.
Ma Liang knew that Guan Ping was confident in his own martial arts, not believing in him, but he didn't care, stood up, and said apologetically: "Young General, in fact, Liang didn't escape from Dunse this time. β
"Huh?" Guan Ping's eyes suddenly burst out, and he shouted, "What do you mean?" β
"Hey~"
Ma Liang sighed and said: "The news of His Majesty's death has reached the ears of Gao Shun and others, and this time Liang can still have a meeting with the young general, and he is entrusted by him to persuade the young general to open the city and surrender." β
"What?"
Guan Ping slashed up at once, drew his sword and wanted to kill Ma Liang, but stopped at the last moment, and asked coldly, "You betrayed Your Majesty?" β
Ma Liang shook his head and didn't explain, but said, "Young General, Your Majesty is dead, and the Great General ...... is also targeted by Emperor Ming, for his killing! Does the major general think he can hold Jingzhou? In other words, with the ability of His Majesty and the general, Jingyi cannot be held, does the young general think that he can hold Jingzhou? β
Guan Ping's heart froze, and he was immediately asked, but he didn't put away his sword, he still looked at Ma Liang coldly, and said: "I don't know if it's not a trick of Gao Shun and others, otherwise why hasn't Ben Jiang gotten the news yet?" β
Ma Liang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "The Ming army has carrier pigeons that can quickly transmit information, far faster than us. If you want to talk about deception, how can the Ming army not know that as long as it takes some time, we can get specific news, so why let Liang come to persuade him! β
Speaking of which, Ma Liang's feelings for Gao Shun and Chen Deng are complicated. It took so much effort to catch him, but with a little trust to let him go back to Xiangyang, it's really ......
Guan Ping was silent for a while, withdrew his sword, and returned to his seat, but he still said coldly: "The Ming army killed Your Majesty, and you want to kill my father, but you want the general to surrender, isn't it wishful thinking?" β
"Definitely!"
Ma Liang said: "The young general knows that since the battle of Bishui, His Majesty knows that the Ming army has swept the world, and the Northern Expedition every year after that is just to obey the destiny of heaven!" Because of His Majesty's actions, not to mention the loss of labor and money, and the casualties on both sides, and now that the Ming army is going south, how can Emperor Ming let it go? β
Guan Ping was silent again, and then said, "Isn't this the reason why Emperor Ming wants to kill my father?" β
"Your Majesty and the general are not siblings, but they are better than siblings, in the past years, there was a saying, 'I don't want to be born on the same day, the same month, and the same day, but I want to die on the same day, the same month, the same year', how can the general not take revenge?"
Ma Liang's words made Guan Ping a hundred pale, but he also forced his son to say: "That is the case, wait for my father to return and avenge Your Majesty!" β
"What a pity!"
Ma Liang sighed: "The general just didn't want the young general and others to sacrifice in vain, so when Jiangzhou was blocked by the Ming army, he left the army to contain it, and led a group of school swords to Chengdu. Perhaps, at this time, it has been beheaded by Emperor Ming. β
Guan Ping's heart was shocked, and he didn't say anything for a long time: Father, is this really the case?
Long.
Ma Liang spoke again: "Jinliang was captured by the Ming army, although there were other reasons, I had to come to persuade the young general, but I also had a loss of virtue, and I was ashamed of the trust of Your Majesty and the general. Therefore, the young general should make another decision, and should not be confused by good words. β
After a pause, he said: "It's just that, as Liang expected, the Ming army will arrive in Xiangyang in a few days, and I ask the major general to make a decision as soon as possible." If they do not surrender, they will gather the men and horses of the Quartet as soon as possible, arrange defenses, and fight to the death. β
When Guan Ping heard this, he knew that Ma Liang's heart was still on his side, and he couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart: "This matter is very important, and I will have to think about it carefully before I can make a decision." β
"In this case, please allow the major general to go back to the house to investigate." Ma Liang arched his hand and said, "At that time, unless the major general makes a decision, Liang will not take half a step out of the mansion." β
"Very good!"
Guan Ping immediately summoned his subordinates to "escort" Ma Liang back to his home.
Ma Liang returned home and celebrated with his family, but he didn't say a word about being captured and persuaded to surrender, but the happiness between the family made him somewhat biased.
"Grandfather, grandfather......"
The clear voice interrupted Ma Liang's thoughts, but it was also like a refreshing stream that washed away all kinds of negative emotions in his heart and returned to ......
Don't talk about Guan Ping, but also talk about Gao Lan and Yan Liang in the east.
"Hahaha!"
Gao Ran looked at Yan Liang with joy and said, "Liu Bei's guy has been beheaded, and now it's time for us to really move our troops." β
Yan Liang's face was also full of joy, and said: "That's right, during this period of time, Wu Jun has repeatedly provoked, I'm afraid I still think we are afraid of him!" Today, let's give him a ruthless one and make him sober and sober. β
"That's right!"
During this period of time, Wu Jun has made frequent moves, and Gao Ran has also been very angry, but because of Gongsun Du's order, he didn't dare to fight back.
"For a long time, the Wu army has been provocative, maybe we really think that we are afraid, it is better to do this, when the Wu army provokes again, we still do the previous posture, but we have laid ambushes around, even more ...... At least the attacking Wu army will be completely annihilated! β
"This plan is a great good!" Although Yan Liang didn't like to use his brain, he could also tell that this was a good plan, and immediately agreed with excitement.
Dozens of miles away, the Wu army camp.
More than half of the army of Eastern Wu was gathered here, and Lu Su, as the governor, felt depressed.
On the day Gao Ran received the news, Lu Su was restless, so he asked the guards, "Is there any news from the west?" β
"Back to the governor, there is no new news for the time being."
Lu Su was a little disappointed when he heard this, and his brows furrowed even tighter. But he didn't blame the guards for this, and nodded, Lu Su got out of the big tent and walked around the camp.
Half an hour later.
Lu Su returned to the big tent, his face was very ugly. Just because he wanted to take the opportunity to distract himself and relieve the worries in his heart, but he didn't expect that the anxiety in his heart would become even worse.
"Governor!"
Lu Su heard that it was Lu Meng's voice, frowned slightly, and said, "Come in!" β
When Lu Meng and the others entered the tent, they all bowed and said, "The subordinates and others visit the governor." β
"Sit down!"
"Xie Dudu!"
Everyone sat down, but they didn't notice that Lu Su's brows were furrowed again.
"What are you waiting for?"
Lu Meng and the others were stunned when they heard this, and then Lu Meng spoke: "Governor, didn't you say that you discussed the use of troops today?" β
"This matter is postponed and postponed." Lu Su said without thinking about it.
"This ......"
"Alright, let's all step down!" Lu Su didn't want to say more, and said directly.
"Yes, Governor."
The people withdrew, but did not disperse, but gathered themselves into Lymon's tent.
After taking his seat, Ling Tong, who had always been close to Lu Meng, asked, "Deputy Governor, what do you mean by Governor?" β
Ding Feng, who had no brains, suddenly said at this time: "Could it be that the governor is afraid of the Ming army, so he doesn't dare to do it?" β
"Shut up!"
LΓΌ Meng had long been before LΓΌ Meng, and after two years of fighting with the Ming army, his wisdom was no less than that of Lu Su, otherwise he would not have been appointed as the deputy governor by Sun Ce.
After scolding Ding Feng, Lu Meng's tone eased, and he said: "When the governor has other plans, you should be careful when you go down." β
Ding Feng was originally scolded so much that his neck shrunk, but now he muttered when he heard it: "What's so careless about this, these days ......"
"Humph!"
Lu Meng snorted coldly and interrupted him, but he didn't reprimand him again, but just explained: "Everyone knows very well what the strength of the Ming army is, otherwise when the Ming army is sluggish, we will not make progress for a long time, but we will lose our troops." β
Everyone was silent and immediately retreated, only Ling Tong stayed. Just looking at his sneaky gaze, Lu Meng's face turned dark.
"If you have something to say, say it quickly, like being a thief, what are you going to do?"
"Huh?"
Ling Tong's face narrowed, and he said in a low voice: "Could it be that the Governor has received some news that we don't know?" β
"Impossible!"
Lu Meng shook his head and said, "If the governor gets the news, it is impossible to hide it from everyone. β
Ling Tong didn't believe it: "What if it's news like Liu Bei's death? β
Lu Meng was stunned, but he still shook his head and said, "Impossible!" Even if such news is not told to everyone, it will be informed to Yu and reported to His Majesty. β
On the other side, Yan Liang didn't see Wu Jun arriving for a long time, and gradually became anxious. Fortunately, Gao Ran was appeased, and he was only a little stable for a few days. But it was only a few days, Yan Liang couldn't help it, and said: "Lao Gao, it's not a way to go on like this, can't Wu Jun not come for a day, and we won't move for a day, right?" Not to mention the side, it is because of this that His Majesty's plan has been delayed, and I am afraid that you and I will inevitably be condemned by then! β
Gao Ran was also very reasonable, so he agreed to Yan Liang's proposal.
While the two were discussing, a flying pigeon suddenly passed a book.
Looking at it, the two of them were overjoyed, and said: "It's time to move the troops!" β
Sui Xingbing!
