Chapter 349: Jingzhou Changed Hands
The situation is urgent, and waiting for the opportunity to control the land of Jingxiang is indeed what Liu Bei wants, after some resignation, Liu Bei nodded and agreed, looked at everyone, and said solemnly: "Now the situation is urgent, General Liu Pan and General Wenpin don't know what is going on, and ask the general to go and explain it in detail in person, and block the four gates, don't let the news come out here, and don't let the poisonous woman escape." ”
"Whoa!" Liu Pan intervened and took the order to leave.
"The rest of the generals immediately contact their respective subordinates to assemble and prepare to encircle and suppress the Cai family and the Zhang family!" Liu Bei looked at the other generals who followed, these people were also powerful figures in Jingzhou, and they just took the opportunity to take the military power for themselves.
"Whoa!" The generals said yes and left.
After arranging all the generals out, and only Chen Gong and Zhang Fei were left by his side, Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief, and the matter came to an end here.
"The lord wants to take charge of Jingzhou, when the civil strife is pacified as soon as possible, Sun Ce has now begun to attack Fancheng, if Sun Ce learns of the civil strife in Xiangyang, he will definitely take the opportunity to cross the river to attack." Chen Gong looked at Liu Bei and bowed.
Liu Bei nodded, this truth, he naturally knows, before Sun Ce crosses the river, all the forces that Jingzhou can gather are gathered, and the forces of Jingzhou are mainly concentrated in the area of Nanjun, at least to ensure that Nanjun is worry-free, according to Zhuge Liang's plan, after Liu Bei takes control of Nanjun, he must try to form an alliance with Sun Ce instead of continuing to fight.
But no matter what, Nanjun must get his hands on it as soon as possible before he can say anything else.
"Yide, go and gather the men and horses we can mobilize here, this battle must end as soon as possible!" Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei and said solemnly.
"Brother, don't worry!" Zhang Fei nodded fiercely, and immediately turned around to gather his troops.
On the other side, when Liu Bei and others came in, Cai knew that he could not continue to control the overall situation, so he made a quick decision and quietly left the palace with a few guards left by Cai He and found Cai He and Zhang Yun.
"Sister?" Cai He was a little surprised when he saw Cai, and quickly got up.
"Gather your troops!" Cai Shi took a breath and said: "Tell the whole city, Liu Bei and Liu Pan made a rebellion, murdered Fujun and Liu Qi, and ordered the generals to requisit. ”
"Liu Qi is dead?" Cai He was overjoyed when he heard this, he naturally knew that Liu Biao was dead, and now that Liu Qi is dead, doesn't it mean that there is only one heir left in Jingzhou, Liu Cong?
"It's not as simple as you think, how can Liu Bei let me wait so easily? That Liu Pan has been in charge of the Xiangyang army for a long time, and there are many cronies in the city, at this time he must have begun to gather troops and horses to prepare to seize power. "That's the way of drinking.
Cai Mao's surrender made the Cai family quite passive, and now the Kuai family, the Huang family and the Pang family have begun to draw a clear line with the Cai family, if Liu Bei cannot be suppressed at this time, they will fall into passivity, only if they can kill Liu Bei and Liu Pan, the Cai family can really get the sovereignty, and whether it is surrendering Jiangdong or fighting Jiangdong as the lord of Jingzhou, the Cai family can grasp the initiative.
"Sister, don't worry, the men and horses have already assembled, so I'll lead the troops to quell the rebellion!" Cai He said solemnly.
Cai nodded, and asked Cai He to leave before he let Liu Cong be brought, because Liu Biao was dead, in order to avoid accidents, Liu Cong had already been secretly sent to Cai's house, and fortunately, Liu Cong was not intercepted by Liu Bei and others as a hostage, otherwise, they would be quite passive at this time.
In Xiangyang City, soldiers and horses from all walks of life began to assemble one after another, Liu Pan had already found Wen Ping at this moment, but Wen Ping did not agree to ask for troops to quell the rebellion together: "Zhongye, the King of Chu was killed by a poisonous woman, and it is time to gather troops to avenge the King of Chu at this moment, what are you still hesitating about!?" ”
"Why?" Wen Ping frowned and looked at Liu Pan.
"I saw it with my own eyes, when I met the lord with the eldest son, the lord had been cold for many days, and the eldest prince was also harmed by the poisonous woman, how could it be fake?" Liu Pan looked at Wen Ping: "Don't you even believe me?" ”
After Wen Ping was silent for a moment, he shook his head and said: "Ping Ke helps the general close the city gate, but he doesn't know about this matter, although the lady is mean, but according to what the general said, the current successor to the king of Chu is only Gongzi Cong, and the general wants to kill his mother at this moment, have you ever thought about the future?" ”
Liu Pan shook his head and said: "I only respect my uncle, the enmity between my uncle and the eldest prince is what I have seen with my own eyes, and this revenge will be avenged!" ”
As for Licong's son, Liu Pan instinctively repulsed, after all, it was born by that woman.
"Please forgive me for not accepting it!" Wen Ping shook his head and sighed.
"Good!" Liu Pan nodded and said: "Then block the four gates, the affairs in the city, you don't need to worry about it, wait for the victory and defeat to be separated, and then make a calculation!" ”
Wen Ping nodded, this can be agreed, he is also in a bit of a dilemma now, on one side is the enemy of the King of Chu, on the other side is the mother of the new king, it is excellent for Wen Ping not to participate in this battle.
Liu Pan failed to persuade Wen Ping to join the war, and many of his subordinate soldiers went to Fancheng with Liu Hu to fight the enemy, and the number of troops was greatly reduced.
On the other hand, after Zhang Yun got Cai He's notice, he immediately gathered his own private soldiers to kill in the direction of Chu Wangfu, the Cai family has been in charge of the military power in Jingzhou for many years, and now although many military positions have been cut because of Cai Mao, there are still many old departments willing to serve the Cai family, during this time Cai He and Zhang Yun were secretly transferred to Xiangyang, and the situation of private soldiers appeared, and it was assembled at this moment, and it was also a huge force.
Outside the palace, Wang Wei has gathered his subordinates, although there are not many, but Wang Wei is ashamed, so at this moment, seeing Zhang Yun leading his troops to kill, quite brave, with his own subordinates without saying a word, Zhang Yun has many soldiers and horses, but in this street and alley can not be used, it was actually defeated and retreated by Wang Wei led hundreds of people to kill at one time.
Liu Bei stood on the corner tower of the palace and watched this scene, and couldn't help but praise: "I don't want this Wang Wei to be so brave!" ”
"My lord, Wang Wei's troops are insufficient after all, although the situation is strong at this time, if it continues, I am afraid that Zhang Yun will be defeated." Chen Gong looked at the men and horses brought by Zhang Yun, and frowned, Wang Wei has too few troops, and he can't make up for the huge gap in strength for a while.
"Destiny Yide came out from the flank, and together with Wang Wei, defeated Zhang Yun!" Liu Bei nodded, he is also a person who knows soldiers, morale on the battlefield is important, but if the disparity in strength is too great, no matter how high the morale is, it is useless.
Chen Gong nodded, and let people shoot arrows and beckon Zhang Fei to help.
On the other side, Zhang Fei had already gathered his troops to run this way, and when he saw the signal sent by Liu Bei, he immediately urged the soldiers to hurry up, whipping the soldiers from time to time, and shouting at the same time: "Hurry up!" ”
Under Zhang Fei's rough urging, the soldiers quickly killed the battlefield, saw Zhang Yun's troops, Zhang Fei entered the battlefield without saying a word, if Wang Wei is brave, then Zhang Fei is berserk, the snake spear in his hand rolled up a strange wind, the wild beast rudely broke into the army, and immediately swept away a large area.
Originally, Zhang Yun faced Wang Wei, after being suppressed in the early stage, as more and more people died in the battle, the advantage of strength gradually reflected, and began to suppress Wang Wei.
"Zhang Yun's dog thief, take your life!" Zhang Fei led the men and horses into the crowd, but he did not waste time on these ordinary soldiers, and at a glance, he saw Zhang Yun commanding the battle in the distance, and roared, and actually led the men and horses directly in the direction of Zhang Yun.
Don't look at his brutality in treating soldiers, but on the battlefield, a fierce general like Zhang Fei is the most inspiring, and the most important thing is that the unreasonable and arrogant spirit can make the enemy's morale three points weaker before he fights.
When Zhang Fei came over, everyone avoided everywhere he passed, and he actually let Zhang Fei kill Zhang Yun directly.
Zhang Yun saw Zhang Fei's posture, his face turned pale, and he waved his horsewhip and said, "Quick, stop him!" ”
But Zhang Fei's posture at this time was too brutal, and the soldiers behind him were also extremely fierce, the Jingzhou soldiers avoided and fled one after another, where did they dare to go up at this moment, Zhang Yun saw Zhang Fei getting closer and closer, turned the horse's head in horror, and wanted to flee for his life, but there were soldiers and horses all around, where could he escape!
"Haha, Zhang Yun is a traitor, I have been unhappy for a long time, and you are also worthy of the surname Zhang!?" Zhang Fei was getting closer and closer, looking at Zhang Yun who wanted to escape but couldn't, he couldn't help laughing, his voice was very loud, such an unscrupulous ridicule at this moment made Siye hear it clearly, Zhang Yun was even more pale, what's wrong with my surname Zhang? Eat your rice?
But at this moment, he didn't dare to reason with Zhang Fei, he just fled back frantically, someone was blocking the way on the road, and he directly swung his sword to kill, which also made the surrounding Jingzhou soldiers even more chaotic!
At this moment, the distance between the two sides was less than ten zhang, Zhang Fei suddenly raised the snake spear and roared: "Give it to me!" ”
With Zhang Fei's roar, the Zhangba Snake Spear flew out of his hand, crossing the distance of ten zhang and heading straight for Zhang Yunhou's heart.
Zhang Yun heard Zhang Fei's roar, only to feel that his eardrums were buzzing, and before he could react, the snake spear had already penetrated his chest, directly penetrated his chest, and submerged into the neck of the war horse, nailing it to the ground with the man and the horse.
The scene was suddenly quiet, and many people around were shocked by Zhang Fei's roar like Zhang Yun, and when he came back to his senses, Zhang Yun had been nailed there with people and horses, and he was dead.
Zhang Feice stepped forward immediately, even if there was no weapon, the surrounding soldiers did not dare to stop him, and watched Zhang Fei come to Zhang Yun's side, grabbed the snake spear, kicked Zhang Yun with a kick, and even kicked out with a horse and pulled out the snake spear, then turned his head to look around, a pair of ring-eyed fierce eyes stared at the Jingzhou soldiers around him, and scolded: "Look, the generals are dead, and you can't resist if you want to!?" ”
Seeing that no one moved, Zhang Fei was furious and roared: "Don't surrender yet!?" ”
The burst of shouts made many people's heads a little dizzy, but they finally reacted and knelt down one after another.
