Chapter 1331: Come to War
Liu Bei is not a fool, at least his ability to observe words and emotions is basically full. As the saying goes, people are not rich without windfalls, horses are not fertile without weeds, uh, night grass, anyway, that's the meaning. Liu Bei was not a rich man before, and the crooked neck tree in his memory seemed to remind him all the time that he was just a crooked farmer who tried to find a different path.
After King Jing of Zhongshan.
Hehe.
This is what Liu Bei's mother said when she quarreled with her neighbors one day, but not only did she not get the respect and surprise of her neighbors, but she was ridiculed for a while.
Yes, it is a mockery, the kind of smile that looks serious, but the corners of the eyes and mouth can't help but curl up, Liu Bei is the most familiar with it. The folks in the countryside, laughing is really laughing, the kind that shows big molars, although some people will laugh at Liu Bei before, but Liu Bei has never felt uncomfortable, and the slightly upturned corners of the mouths of these scholars have cut Liu Bei to the point of scaly wounds again and again.
In this life, after meeting Liu Bei and hearing him say that he was King Jing of Zhongshan, he didn't show his intention to laugh at him, but he really respected him, only Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
Now Liu Bei is really the queen of King Jing of Zhongshan, and he is officially sealed.
But Liu Bei still saw the corners of Chen Deng's mouth slightly upturned after lowering his head......
Is this identity really that ridiculous?
Isn't it ridiculous?
Amusing.
He was a state pastor, and he was ridiculed by his own subordinates, is there anything more ridiculous in the world?
No, there's anything more ridiculous than that......
It's ridiculous that he can't do anything about Chen Deng. Did Chen Deng ever laugh at Liu Bei in public? No, not only no, but there is no lack of etiquette at all, and the rules on the surface are also quite in place, opening your mouth is to make a king, and closing your mouth is a general, in the face of such a person, what can Liu Bei do?
Was the relationship between Tao Qian and Chen very good before?
Not necessarily, but Tao Qian has not been without means for so many years, but he can't do anything to Chen.
Chen is a surname in Xuzhou, deep-rooted, and has connections with all aspects, unless Liu Bei wants to break the jar and break it, just want to be cool in front of him, then he has to cooperate with Chen, otherwise, not to mention the entire Xuzhou, there will be a big problem with the money and grain tax alone.
What's more, the Chen family is also very good at being a person, if he wants to donate money and food, he will donate money and food, and if he wants him to give advice, he will offer advice without saying a word, so what else can Liu Bei say? Although I knew in my heart that Chen Deng's strategy either had some problems that were not clearly explained, or this guy didn't do his best at all and didn't say the best way, but what could he do?
Chen Deng can offer advice, he has already done his duty, as for whether the strategy is good or not, whether to adopt it or not, these are no longer Chen Deng's problems, but Liu Bei's.
Is it difficult to coerce or kill people because Chen didn't come up with a good plan?
In this case, Zhang Fei Guan Yu, who has never come up with a good solution, shouldn't he be even more deserved? And Sun Qian and Gu Yong, wouldn't it be even more damned?
"Big brother, what do I think...... That kid from the Chen family, didn't come up with any good ideas? Zhang Fei didn't look at Chen Deng very well, and always felt that this kid was swishing and unreliable.
"And what can you do?" Guan Yu squinted his eyes and said unceremoniously. Originally, the children of the family were not all the way with the three of them, and Guan Yu was not surprised that such a situation occurred. Guan Yu was born in Hebei, although he is also smart, but his family background is quite average, so he hasn't read many books, and now he is holding a spring and autumn book every day, but the taste is actually not very good, so if you ask how to arrange tactics on the battlefield, Guan Yu can still say one, two, three, but like this strategic plan, Guan Yu is not very good at it.
Zhang Fei was the same, he felt that there seemed to be something wrong with Chen Deng's plan, but where the problem was and how to avoid it, he couldn't say anything, so when he heard Guan Yu's question, he could only scratch his head and couldn't think of any better ideas.
Liu Bei pondered for a long time, and finally sighed and said: "The strategy that Yuanlong said can't be regarded as wrong, but it's just ......"
Children make choices, while adults want everything. It's very simple to save your life, just with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei by your side, there are really few people in the world who can leave Liu Bei on the battlefield, but Liu Bei has been poor for so many years, and now he can finally touch the side of the rich and taste some sweetness, so he is absolutely unwilling to give up these things at hand.
Since you are reluctant, but you can't win, you naturally need to call a helper, but will this helper really come? If Cao Pingdong pondered that he would wait until both sides were defeated to come, wouldn't he be a tiger at the front door and a wolf at the back door? But does Liu Bei have a way to make Cao Cao obedient and work tirelessly to resist Yuan Shu's soldiers first, so that he can pick up the cheapest?
But is there any way to solve this problem?
No.
Liu Bei could only think of this, as for whether there were any other problems in Chen Deng's strategy, he couldn't think of it for the time being......
If it is a different place, if Liu Bei sits in Cao Cao's position, it must be the same way to deal with it. At present, Yuan Shu's army is pressing, and there is not much time left for Liu Bei, although Chen Deng's plan is problematic, but at the moment, there is only that, Liu Bei shook his head and sighed, "...... Send someone to Yanzhou......"
………………………………
In the night, the figure and the war horse galloped, the sound of horses' hooves, transmitted far away, in this piece of Yuzhou edge area, sparsely populated, a group of cavalry through the sparse woods, in front of a slightly wider view of the hills, the dilapidated dirt road along the hillside to the down, far away is the deserted village that has become a ghost.
Judging from the barren state of the village, the village in front of me has only recently been abandoned, and the broken eaves have not suffered too many traces of time for the time being.
This place also used to be a fertile land, but because it was the border between Yuzhou and Yanzhou, in several battles between Yuan Shu and Cao Cao, maybe he fled, or he captured Zhuangding, of course, there is also a possibility, that is, in this place, unilaterally or both sides, in order to mobilize military rations......
Slaughtered the village.
At the entrance of the village, the broken walls, the broken bones torn by wild dogs or some other animal, seem to tell something in a piecemeal way.
Are the common people human beings, when they need to pay money and food taxes, they are naturally human beings, one is counted as one, and one is not missing, even if the common people confess that they are not human beings, they can't do it, and a five-baht money cannot be less, but at some point, the people are ants, and if they are killed, they will be killed.
Xiahou Yuan deliberately chose this path because he knew that there was no one here anymore. If there is no one, there will be no garrison, and without a garrison, no one will report the news of the attack of Xiahou Yuan and others.
There was a sound of wind in his ears, and there was a slight commotion in the distance, Xiahou Yuan frowned, and then soon a soldier came to report that two cavalrymen had fallen and were injured......
Those who are short-sighted are angels with folded wings.
War horses are no exception.
The night march carried with it all sorts of uncertain risks, one horse stepped on the air and fell, and the other did not have time to stop and also fell.
"Leave two people to take care of it! The rest move on! Xiahou Yuan didn't think about it, and immediately ordered.
In the night wind, one of the soldiers answered, and the horse team continued to move forward.
The barren villages are far away, but Yuzhou is getting closer and closer.
Until now, no one has discovered Xiahou Yuan's arrival, which means that when Xiahou Yuan really comes out of the darkness, many people will be shocked......
For the rescue of Xuzhou, Cao Cao discussed with several advisers, and after almost no controversy, he adopted the method of encircling Wei to save Zhao, and Xiahou Yuan was the vanguard officer, leading the cavalry to raid Yuzhou.
Xiahou Yuan felt that he was born with the type of person who was most suitable for war.
What this kind of person should be like, it may be difficult to accurately describe it in words, and it is difficult to plan the scope with a concept of scope, but if it is briefly summarized, then it may be roughly reflected by the words "do everything", no matter what kind of means and methods, as long as it can be beneficial to kill and injure the opponent, or reduce the opponent's combat effectiveness, it will not hesitate to use.
Xiahou Yuan's target this time was to assassinate Shi Guo Gong in Yuzhou.
………………………………
The sharp arrow formation led by Gan Ning, like a sharp knife, pierced into the bridge battle array.
Qiao Rui originally thought that Gan Ning was just here to rob, after all, this kind of thing has often happened in the past few years at the state and county borders, anyway, either you send someone over to harass for a while, or I send someone over to be disgusting for a while, anyway, everyone does this, and whoever does less seems to have suffered a loss.
So Qiao Rui brought some people to drive away, in his original concept, when he arrived, Gan Ning and the others would retreat, so many years have been almost the same, even if he went to the territory of Jingxiang, it is the same, when the other party's soldiers come, retreat, the other party will not chase after it.
But Qiao Rui didn't expect that this time the person who came from Jing Xiang was like a stunned young man, and like a desperate gambler, he pierced closely, seeing Gan Ning rushing forward, knocking away one by one of his own foot soldiers, and wielding a knife to kill two people in a row, rushing towards his own formation, Qiao Rui really couldn't cry or laugh, so he had to order the Chinese army foot soldiers to step forward to block the attack, and mobilize some crossbowmen to prepare to shoot Gan Ning and others who were charging.
Charge?
Is there really such a person these days?
The Chinese army can not move as much as possible, Qiao Rui is also an old army, naturally will not make some low-level mistakes, on the battlefield where the two sides are fighting, like Gan Ning with the banner of the Chinese army, there are often only two results, either a big victory or a big defeat......
This guy is so confident?
Looking at Gan Ning's big knives flying up and down with a tent of blood, you can know that Gan Ning's martial arts are good, but Qiao Rui also doesn't believe that these foot guards around him, even if they are not one of the warriors in a hundred, they will not be able to withstand Gan Ning's impact, he doesn't believe that Gan Ning can break through his personal guard line and rush in front of him, so Qiao Rui doesn't want to move the Chinese army flag, as long as he transfers the crossbowmen on both wings, he can shoot Gan Ning and others on the road of the charge.
Facing the Qiao Rui's personal guards who came up, Gan Ning quickly felt the pressure.
But there are just a few.
These well-trained Qiao Rui guards wanted to cooperate more tacitly with those ordinary Yuan army foot soldiers, and cooperated with each other between attacks and kills, some beheaded off, some stabbed their waists, and some pierced their feet, which caught Gan Ning a little off guard for a while.
Although Gan Ning was strong in martial arts, he avoided the first wave of counterattacks and seized the opportunity to kill two people in a row, but he was also stabbed in his left leg, and if it wasn't for the armor protection, he would have been injured. If it is someone else, it is impossible to say that he will retreat timidly, but Gan Ning is a person who belongs to the battlefield to go crazy, the more dangerous the more excited, put it in the second dimension, it is the type of person who will burst the shirt, immediately rattling and laughing, crazy dancing with a big knife, not retreating but advancing, slashing left and right, invincible, in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen Qiao Rui guards who came up were killed by him in front of the formation, some shields were broken, some broke arms, some opened their chests and disembowelments, and blood flowed all over the ground.
"Enemy general, come to fight!"
Gan Ning flew and rammed, knocking a bridge guard who was cut by him in the leg, and took the time to shout, Gan Ning's personal guards also caught up, raised the shield in his hand, blocked the war knife coming from the side, and also shouted with Gan Ning: "Enemy general!" Come to war! ”
Qiao Rui pursed her lips, these days, everyone really has it......
This idiot.
But this idiot is a bit powerful.
Gan Ning's martial arts are in front of him, he is definitely not an opponent, and he still fights in such a situation, isn't it as good as an idiot?
Compared with Qiao Rui's guards, ordinary Yuan Jun foot soldiers don't know so much, and when they heard Gan Ning's shout, they couldn't help but look back at their own general, as if asking, this guy is looking for you, can't you get on?
Gan Ning seized the short flaw, and rushed to the middle for more than ten steps, getting closer and closer to the banner of the Chinese army on the bridge. An ordinary shield-wielding foot soldier tried to stop Gan Ning, but Gan Ning slashed on the shield with a knife, and the shield led the person to fly backwards, falling to the sky, as if he had broken his arm, and wailed in pain on the ground.
Gan Ning squeezed forward, raised his foot, and stepped on the neck of the Yuan army foot soldier, and in the click, it seemed to crush something, and also stepped on the Yuan army's foot soldier's scream, and several Yuan army foot soldiers on the side couldn't help but shrink back.
"Enemy general! Come to war! ”
Gan Ning shouted again.
"Come to war! Come to war! Come to war! ”
The soldiers who followed behind Gan Ning were like rainbows, shouting together, and stabbing forward desperately.
Qiao Rui took a breath of cool air, he thought that he could mobilize crossbowmen when Gan Ning burst into front of the formation, but he didn't expect Gan Ning to advance so fast. At this moment, he was only twenty or thirty paces away from Gan Ning, and the crossbowmen on both wings had just received the order and were rushing to the Chinese army......
Watching Gan Ning kill several Yuan soldiers in a row in a row, Qiao Rui realized that he might have made a big mistake, in the smaller the battle, the greater the role that individual martial arts can play, and he underestimated Gan Ning's own combat effectiveness.
Now it's troublesome......
When Qiao Rui realized that Gan Ning was beyond his imagination, it was too late to make another deployment, and in front of him, more than a dozen guards who met him fell under the knife of Gan Ning and others, Gan Ning was getting closer and closer, and Qiao Rui seemed to be able to clearly see the blood and minced flesh stained on Gan Ning's face.
"Enemy general! Come to war! ”
Gan Ning opened his teeth and danced like a madman, baring his teeth and grinning!
"Come to war! Come to war! Come to war! ”
In the louder and louder shouts, Qiao Rui's face finally trembled, raised his hand, gritted his teeth, and ordered:
“…… Remove...... Let's withdraw! ”
