199 night strike
"This is Wen Chou?"
At this time, it was getting late, and Liu Bei's Qingzhou army had been marching for a day, and it was also sleepy and lacking horses, so it was natural to set up camp.
In the big tent, looking at Wen Chou's corpse, Liu Bei asked the people around him. In fact, Liu Bei mainly asked Guan Yu and Zhao Yun.
"Yes, my lord. This is Wen Chou, it was General Guan who killed Wen Chou with his own hands on top of the battle array. ”
Zhao Yun, who was on the side, replied, and told Guan Erye how to kill Wen Chou in seconds. When everyone heard this, they all congratulated Guan Yu, Guan Yu reached out and touched his beard, squinted his eyes, and didn't say much.
"Okay, my brother should be the first to take credit in this battle."
Nodding, Liu Bei looked at Wen Chou's corpse and said.
In fact, he was complaining in his heart, could it be that Yan Liang and Wen Chou could not clash with Guan Erye? The butterfly effect of the traverser can't change the fate of Wen Chou being killed by Guan Erye in seconds. Still, history can't be changed, thinking of this, Liu Bei couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart.
Wen Chou's body has been scrubbed clean, the wound on his back has been sewn up, and he has changed into clean clothes.
At this time, Cheng Yu suddenly said: "General, why don't you behead Wen Chou, and then pass the head to Yuan Shao's camp to demonstrate to the enemy." ”
"This ......" Liu Bei hesitated.
When Guan Yu heard this, he couldn't help but touch his beard and glanced at Cheng Yu, who looked a little similar to himself.
However, Cheng Yu's plan was to win, and Guan Yu didn't say much, and after taking a look, he withdrew his gaze.
"Forget it, I also respect true warriors! Wen Chou is also a loyal and brave man, and he is already dead, so there is no need to do this. ”
This method is too hurtful to character, Liu Bei thought about it, and decided not to use Cheng Yu's plan, after all, it is a civil war, and it is still necessary to pay attention to the impact.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the expressions of the generals around him, although they didn't change much, seemed to be relieved.
Come to think of it, these generals are all going into battle to kill the enemy.
As the saying goes, if the crockpot is not broken from the wellhead, the general will inevitably die in battle. If a person dies, he will have to cut off his head to demonstrate, and naturally there will be some sad feelings about the death of rabbits and foxes.
Seeing that Liu Bei did not harm the body of the other general, a sense of respect immediately rose in the hearts of the people around, the general actually respected the people who died bravely, even if the other party was an enemy, it was really right to follow the general.
Liu Bei's face showed a sense of compassion and compassion, and he said in a deep voice: "What I admire the most is a real warrior!" Go and call a few of Wen Chou's captured subordinates and ask them to carry Wen Chou's body back and hand it over to Yuan Benchu. Let's just say that General Wen Chou died in battle with me. However, I admired General Wen Chou as a loyal and brave man, so I returned his body to Yuan Benchu. ”
"High! It's really high! ”
When Cheng Yu and Xi Zhicai heard this, they looked at each other, and they both picked a thumbs up in their hearts.
This way of dealing with it is actually the same as Cheng Yu's effect of cutting off Wen Chou's head and then demonstrating. And it doesn't hurt people's character, and even spread out, to be able to give Liu Bei a good reputation, it can be said that he has not only made a blue pool, but also set up an archway.
"My lord, when returning the body of General Wen Chou, you should send it with great fanfare first, lest Yuan Benchu's command misunderstand our army's sneak attack, and it will not be beautiful at that time." Cheng Yu added.
"Okay, that's it!" Liu Bei nodded.
It is necessary to send Wen Chou's body over with great fanfare, so that more people under Yuan Shao can see it and the morale of Yuan Shao's army can be hit.
In Yuan Shao's barracks, looking at Wen Chou's corpse, Yuan Shao's face showed a sad look, Xiao Ji is dead, Wen Chou is also dead, these people are Yuan Shao's henchmen, how do you make Yuan Shao happy, even the joy of the big victory Gongsun Zan seems to have disappeared without a trace.
And the people around were all gloomy, the Qingzhou army didn't do anything to insult Wen Chou's body, in fact, they wished that Liu Bei would do this kind of thing, so as to boost morale.
But Liu Bei not only sent Wen Chou's body back, but even stitched up the wound and sent it back with clothes dressed. Not only that, but it also made people hype that Yuan Shao's men and horses knew that Wen Chou had died in battle.
And Wen Chou, who is also known for his bravery, is a fierce general in Yuan Shao's army, knowing that Wen Chou died in battle, the morale of Yuan Shao's men and horses is naturally inevitably low.
"First keep General Wen's body in the tent, and then bury it when I break Liu Xuande." Yuan Shao said slowly.
Since someone went to deal with this matter, Yuan Shao asked again: "Now that Liu Xuande's army has arrived, I want to use Lu Yi to lead troops to defend a small village. If Liu Xuande attacks me, General Lu attacks him, Liu Xuande attacks General Lu Yi, and I attack him, is this plan okay? ”
In the end, it was Yuan Shao, although Wen Chou died in battle, which made him feel very sorry, but he immediately broke free from the negative emotions and immediately came up with a solution.
When everyone heard this, they all thought that this idea was good, and they all said: "The general's plan is wonderful, and he will definitely be able to break Liu Xuande." ”
Although Wen Chou died in battle, he slowed down Liu Bei's march before he died, allowing Yuan Shao to gather most of his soldiers and horses. At this moment, most of Yuan Shao's army is here, and with the defeat of Gongsun Zan today, his confidence has increased a lot, but he was not so frightened by Liu Bei.
Lu Yi received an order from Yuan Shao, and outside Yuan Shao's camp, he set up a small village alone, and he led his own headquarters to garrison the village.
At night, Liu Bei led two hundred personal guards, called Cheng Yu and Xi Zhicai, left Guan Yu to command the whole army, and went out of the camp to see Yuan Shao's camp under the escort of Dian Wei, Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, etc.
Liu Bei's personal guard battalion is an elite soldier in Qingzhou's army, known as the "Election Battalion", which means that everyone is a carefully selected "Selector Battalion". ”
This guard battalion was founded by Liu Bei after he crossed over, and when he was the county commander, everyone was selected according to the standards of Wei Wushu, and now there are 5,000 people, and the pawns have the treatment of 100 generals. The personal guard battalion has always served as the vanguard of Liu Bei's army, and they have fought tough battles and vicious battles, although there have been some rotations in personnel over the past few years, but the combat effectiveness has always been extremely strong.
The soldiers who went out from the guard battalion were released one after another to be grassroots officers, used to control the army for Liu Bei, and often supplemented by strong pawns and fierce generals in the army, and hundreds of people were used as pawns, so the combat effectiveness of the guard battalion was extremely strong and powerful.
Through interrogating the captives, Liu Bei knew that Yuan Shao's cavalry had been wiped out by Zhao Yun and Guan Yu. Liu Bei has two hundred people to protect, and everyone has two horses, even if Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses find out, he will run away.
Chopping horses and knives are also sensitive?
