Yan Liang and Wen Chou came to Jingzhou with several partial generals.

Kuai Yue sent someone to hire Wen again.

The generals were gathered, and everyone discussed the details of the troops, and stayed in Xiangyang to wait for the scouts to bring back news about the troops.

But two or three days later, the scout brought back the news.

There were actually two teams of people in Jingzhou.

One of them, more than 3,000 people, led by Lu Xun and Ling Tong, explored the way ahead.

Another force of more than 20,000 people, led by Zhou Yu, planned to disguise themselves as Cao's army to cross Jingzhou and enter the Lujiang River, and then rush to Shouchun.

The scouts found out the details, and even found out who was in charge of the troops.

Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang, who got the news, immediately invited the generals to the government council hall.

After everyone sat down, Kuai Liang said: "Please come to the generals, just because I got the news just now that it is the Jiaozhou soldiers and horses who plan to pass through Jingzhou." They disguised themselves as our army in an attempt to disadvantage Shouchun! ”

"How many men do they have?" Yan Liang asked.

"It was divided into two groups, one of which was 3,000 and the other was 20,000." Kuai Liang replied: "I think the 3,000 people should be their vanguard, and the 20,000 people are the main force!" ”

"What are the plans of the two Kuai Gong?" Wen Ping interjected.

"It is said that the vanguard of the enemy army is led by Lu Xun and Ling Tong." Kuai Yue said: "The two of them have some skills, when the lord's army broke through the Yangtze River, it was under their obstruction that Sun Quan was given the opportunity to escape. It's not easy to deal with them. ”

"What's not easy?" Wen Chou stood up: "If none of you dare to go, I will go!" ”

"General Wen is at ease." Kuai Yue said with a smile: "It's not that no one dares to go, it's just that the battle between the two armies is a matter of life and death for soldiers, so it's better to be cautious." ”

"How cautious should you be?" Although he is a reckless man, Wen Chou is also a general who has led soldiers for many years, and he knows the importance of deceit on the battlefield.

"Although Lu Xun is young, he is extremely deceitful in his use of soldiers, and he is a difficult opponent to deal with." Kuai Yue said: "As for Ling Tong, he is not very old, but he can fight with Jiangdong's fierce general Gan Xingba, and he is not an easy ...... to deal with."

"Gan Xingba didn't seem to be from Jiangdong in the past." Wen Chou is straightforward, but sometimes he is too straightforward, and he interjected: "If I remember correctly, he should have been under Huang Zu." ”

Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue showed a touch of embarrassment on their faces.

Huang Zu is Liu Biao's general, who occupies Jiangxia all the year round.

This person is tyrannical and has no kindness to his subordinates, and it is reasonable for Gan Ning to rebel.

However, when Wen Chou mentioned this matter, it would still make the Kuai brothers who had covered the sky with one hand in Jingzhou feel embarrassed.

Finding that the faces of the two were not quite right, Yan Liang said: "General Wen speaks uprightly, don't take it to heart." ”

Kuai Yue replied with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, it's easy to get along with Geng Straight!" ”

In order not to lead the topic too deeply and make the two of them even more embarrassed, Yan Liang asked, "Now that you know who they are leading the army, how do you plan to deal with it?" ”

"General Wen!" Kuai Yue looked at Wen Ping and greeted him.

Wen Ping and Wen Chou looked at him at the same time, and asked in unison, "What does Kuai Gong have to say?" ”

Kuai Yue was suddenly full of black lines.

He planned to ask Wen Ping to be the vanguard to face the battle, but he ignored that Wen Chou and Wen Ping had the same surname.

"I'm greeting General Zhongye." Kuai Yue was very embarrassed and grinned.

"It wasn't for me." Wen Chou pouted.

Wen Ping stood up and asked, "Dare to ask what Gong Kuai commands?" ”

"I want to ask General Wen to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to meet Lu Xun and Ling Tong." Kuai Yue asked, "I don't know what the general wants?" ”

"The last will go." Kuai Yue plans to make him a pioneer, and Wen Ping is certainly willing.

On the march to war, the vanguard is the easiest to make meritorious deeds.

At the beginning, under Liu Biao, although Wenpin had the ability, he was not reused.

Now that Jingzhou is in the hands of Cao Shuo, Cao Shuo specially sent someone to call his name and gave him the title of miscellaneous general.

With the title of general, Wen Ping has never made a big contribution, and with his temperament, he always feels that he can't stand the new lord.

Let him be a pioneer, that would be great.

Wen Ping is also a capable person, although Yan Liang and Wen Chou have not fought with him, they have also heard of his name.

Kuai Yue asked him to be a pioneer, and of course the two of them would not have any opinions.

"I don't think it's enough for General Zhongye to go alone." Kuai Liang said: "On this expedition, I will accompany the general. ”

The enemy army was led by Lu Xun, and Wen Ping led the army alone to meet them, although there were more people than them, but they were really not sure that they would be able to win.

Kuai Liangken went with him, and Wen Ping was a little more sure that he would win the battle.

Lu Xun and Ling Tong had no idea that their whereabouts had been completely locked by Xiangyang.

The two of them thought that they were acting very secretively, and led a vanguard army of 3,000 to continue to advance north.

After walking for a few days, they noticed a troop of men and horses in front of them.

Judging by the battle flags and the queue, that troop was about twice as large as theirs.

"Why are there so many?" The number of defenders in various places is often not too large, and seeing the men and horses appearing in front of him, Lu Xun frowned suspiciously.

Ling Tong asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"It's not just inappropriate, it's just weird." Lu Xun said: "We have passed through so many places, and we have met some defenders along the way, but the defenders are no more than three or two hundred people, and they will be released after a brief interrogation. ”

"What do you mean......" After Lu Xun's explanation, Ling Tong also found that it was not too right.

"Herald!" Lu Xun instructed the guards next to him: "The whole army is on alert and ready to fight!" ”

"It's not clear what the other party is about, is it ...... to fight too early" Ling Tong still harbored illusions.

Lu Xun said: "Looking at the opponent's formation, where do you need to figure out where they come from." I assume they know where we come from, and are here waiting to stop our army. If we continue to have illusions about the past, our army will definitely suffer a big loss. ”

"Listen to you!" Knowing that he was not as smart as Lu Xun, Ling Tong didn't say anything more, and asked him, "What should I do?" ”

"Since the enemy dares to come and stop it, there will definitely be fierce generals in the army." Lu Xun said to him: "I have to leave it to you to fight!" ”

"I may not be able to do anything else, and I am still somewhat sure of fighting." Ling Tong smiled: "Once the war starts, I will bring the heads of the enemy's fierce generals to you to play with!" ”

"Cao Zirong has a lot of people under his command, but he doesn't dare to be too careless." Lu Xun reminded that no matter who the enemy army is, it must be dealt with carefully.

"Bo Yan rest assured!" Ling Tong replied: "You and I have known each other for so many years, is it possible that you can't even believe my ability?" ”

Patting his arm lightly, Lu Xun smiled and said, "How can I not know your ability?" Just a reminder, if you have three long and two short, we really don't have any chance this time! 2k reading network
