Chapter 269: Dare to be brave
Xiangyang
Cao Ren originally held on to Runan, but suddenly received an order from Cao Pi to let himself lead the army to attack Jingzhou with Xu Huang.
"Liu Jun will stick to the city and not fight, I don't have many soldiers and horses in the city, so I don't dare to fight!" Exploring from the return to Cao Ren.
Cao Ren heard this, and said to Lu Chang, a general on the side: "You are familiar with Nanyang County, what do you think?" ”
Lu Changyan said: "Xiangyang is the main city of Jingzhou, and the city is strong and easy to defend. If it is a strong attack, it will be difficult to capture it in a short time. The enemy did not want to fight, so he could only attack the city by attack or at night. ”
"However, the enemy army does not have many troops, and it will not be able to attack for half a month, so it can definitely be captured."
Cao Ren heard this and nodded slightly, "What you said is reasonable, Lu Chang, you will lead the siege army to call for battle, if you don't come out, besiege the city and attack it." ”
"The last general commands!"
On the city of Xiangyang, Cao's army has arrived at the city.
Xu Shu was in the city, no matter how Cao Jun called for battle, he didn't meet it.
"General Guan Yu has sent a letter, and it will be coming soon, and everyone is guarded. When the general arrives here, Cao's army will be defeated. Xu Shu shouted to the city generals.
When everyone heard this, they all shouted and cheered.
Seeing that the morale of the crowd was stable, Xu Shu sighed, he didn't receive the letter at all, it was all made up by himself. I hope to be able to keep it for a few more days.
Nanyang
Xu Huang's generals Lu Jian and Xu Shang were ordered to march into two places to attack Nanyang City.
Lu Jian said to Xu Shang: "Our army is ten miles away from the village, and Liu Jun was defeated by us before, and now he will definitely stick to the city, so the two of us will attack the east and west, and General Xu Huang will follow." ”
"The task of our army is to contain Zhang Feijun's actions here, so that General Cao Ren can successfully go to Xiangyang, and when Xiangyang is captured, Nanyang will also be lost."
Xu Shang replied: "I was in the village before, and I didn't have to fight with Liu Jun. I heard that in addition to Zhang Fei, there is also a young general in the enemy army, who is also brave and can fight on a par with the general. ”
Lu Jian recalled Sima Jin and shuddered, "That's right, that general ......"
Xu Shang saw the dust in front of him, and a team of men and horses were rushing towards him, "The enemy is coming!" ”
"What?" Lu Jian looked ahead, thinking that the enemy army had been defeated before, and his strength was limited, so he should defend the city, so he actually chose to fight or fight head-on.
Lu Jian looked ahead, as the leading general, his eyes widened, and he couldn't help but tremble, "Yes...... It's that general, Ma Jin! ”
"Why isn't Xu Huang here?" Sima Jin was a little disappointed when he saw that there was no Xu Huang among the generals of the Cao army.
"Come!" With a loud shout, the spear jumped forward.
Lu Jian hurriedly raised his sword to prepare for battle, and said to Xu Shang on the side: "It's this person, don't be careless!" ”
Seeing that Lu Jian was so nervous, Xu Shang naturally had a fighting spirit and did not dare to underestimate the enemy.
Sima Jin looked at the two of them, looking cowardly, and couldn't help but snort coldly in his heart, and rushed to the front of the two.
"Kill!" Lu Chang and Xu Shang stabbed left and right, Sima Jin swung a shot, opened the blades of the two, and then slashed towards Lu Chang with his backhand. Lu Jian's horizontal troops attacked, and Sima Jin changed his momentum sharply and then swung towards Xu Shang.
Xu Shang didn't expect the soldier to react so quickly, and he also thought that Lu Jian would make a move against him, and he would sneak attack from it. Now it has also entered the defensive momentum.
"Call Xu Huanglai!" Sima Jin shouted with a smile.
Keep swinging left and right, one person and one shot, suppressing two people to fight.
Lu Jian had fought against Sima Jin before, and he knew that he was invincible, but this time he had Xu Shang here, but he didn't expect the two to join forces, and they still couldn't please a little good. This person's moves are precise and fast, and there is no room for counterattacks.
Sima Jin brought Liu Jun to the front to meet Cao's army.
Sima Jin knew that he should fight a quick battle, and his own troops would not be greatly damaged. Kill these two generals, and Cao's army will be defeated.
"Die!" Sima Jin suddenly changed the offensive, but attacked Lu Chang but turned his gun to stab Xu Shang.
Xu Shang suddenly changed, and he didn't have time to defend, so he was assassinated and dismounted.
"Xu Shang!" Lu Jian was shocked, and he hurriedly turned around and ran back.
"Withdraw! Withdraw first! Lu Jian shouted, and Cao Jun Mingjin retreated.
"Kill!" Liu Jun's morale was greatly boosted, and he followed Sima Jin all the way to pursue and kill the fleeing army.
Lu Jian fled back in panic, "Why hasn't the general arrived?" Lu Chang, who had escaped for a long time, was puzzled, and Xu Huang, who had said that he had been good, had not seen the general since he led the troops. Lu Jian looked back, and Sima Jin was still in hot pursuit.
Sima Jin pursued all the way for a long time, and he was also puzzled, "Why hasn't Xu Huang appeared yet?" ”
Cao Jun camp village, outside the wall.
At this time, in the confrontation between the two armies, Zhang Fei and Xu Huang were facing each other at the Zhaimen.
"Why did you come back?" Zhang Fei asked.
Xu Huang said: "If your army does not defend, it will go to war." With the strength of the army, it should be inferior to our army, but it is still fighting, and there is a fear of deception. When I heard that Lu Jian was attacked in the rear army, I wanted to go there, but after thinking about it, the city is easy to defend, but the village is not easy to defend. If I go and win, I will chase all the way to the city, and when your army enters the city, I will be helpless for a while. ”
"At that time, our army wanted to leave the village far away, to the city, if Zhang Fei came to attack the village, the village was broken. If the grain and grass are destroyed, it will be difficult to fight for a long time. So when I came back and looked, I happened to run into you and so on. ”
Zhang Fei laughed a few times, "When our army attacks you, can't it be that I am brave and unscrupulous, and I think I can win?" ”
Xu Huang smiled and said: "The last time I fought in Nanyang, I decided that Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide were not unscrupulous. The appearance of a general in ordinary times must be to bluff the enemy and make the enemy lax. Our army must have been defeated because of this. ”
Zhang Fei praised, "The general is really Zhou Yafu!" ”
Xu Huang said: "Don't dare to be." ”
At this time, Lu Jian in the rear fled back, "General! There are pursuers behind! ”
Zhang Fei looked over, shouted, and slaughtered Lu Changxia, "Yan Zhang Yide is here, don't get off the horse and die!" ”
Lu Jian was shocked when he saw Zhang Fei in front of him like a ghost and a god.
"Zhang Fei! I'll fight you! Xu Huang hurriedly pursued Zhang Fei and went to save Lu Jian.
Xu Huang swung away the mountain axe and wanted to split Zhang from behind. Zhang Fei knew the situation in the rear, but ignored it and continued to rush towards Lu Jian, "Come on!" He died first! Or I'll die first! ”
When Lu Jian saw Zhang Fei approaching, he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Ahh
"Khooth!" Zhang Feispear stabbed at Lu Chang, Lu Chang panicked, and the move that he could have taken at that time was now a little uncertain. In the end, he was still blocked, but even the people were stabbed off the horse and fell to the ground, and Lu Jian spat out a mouthful of blood.
After Xu Huang's axe attacked, Zhang Fei flashed sideways, Sima Jin flew over, the axe gun shook away, and Zhang Fei fled.
Zhang Fei rode his horse to Sima Jin, "You have the ability!" ”
Sima Jin returned: "Afford it." ”
"Withdraw!" Zhang Fei shouted, and Liu Jun withdrew his troops and returned to the city.
Xu Huang looked at Lu Jian, who had fallen off the horse, "How?" ”
The soldier hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, but Lu Jian could not reply. Xu Huang knew the situation, "Take the general back." Xu Huang looked around at Lu Changjun and didn't see his subordinate general Xu Shang. I thought that I must have been defeated and killed by the enemy.
"Damn." Now that he has lost two generals in a row, it is more troublesome to transfer troops and command.
The First Army was approaching from Yiju in the direction of Gangneung.
Shi Yue looked ahead and asked the generals on the side, "Where is the front?" ”
"The front is Zigui, before Zigui is Yiling, and Jiangling is in front." The ministry will reply.
"And so far?" Shi Yue sighed, recently he received the news that Guan Yu sent troops to Xiangyang, which means that the Sun army has started, and he must hurry, Jiangling is lost, and it is too difficult to capture it back.
"Don't rest for so long, continue to march into the army, and rush overnight."
