Chapter Eighty-Six: The Soldiers Are Coming to the City

PS: Go home once, it's too busy, hurry up and code a big chapter, and when you go back to work, you can resume the update progress, I'm really embarrassed, the autumn wind is embarrassed to lick my face and ask for tickets~~~

Night!

Left General's Mansion.

A light is like a bean, Liu Bei is reading at night.

Suddenly, a small official broke into the hall, hugged his fists and said, "Lord! Zhou Yu led the army out of the city. ”

Liu Bei put down the bamboo slip, thoughtfully, sighed, and said, "Which direction are you going?" ”

The little official blurted out: "Go back to the lord and go to the direction of Xunyang City." ”

"Xunyang!?"

Liu Bei was a little curious, in fact, starting from Chaisang, if he didn't stop all the way, he could rush to Songzi City in the early hours of the morning, and the early morning was an excellent fighter in the night battle sneak attack, which Zhou Yu should not know, but he rushed to the direction of Xunyang City, which could not help but cause some vigilance in Liu Bei's heart.

Xunyang City and Chaisang City are close to each other, and the cavalry can easily reach without one of them, and it is unimaginable to launch a surprise attack.

Liu Bei lowered his head, fell into deep thought, waved his hand and said, "I know, you go down and help me find Kong Ming." ”

The little official bowed, answered, and left the hall upside down.

After a while, Kong Ming came to the top of the main hall.

"Lord!" Kong Ming said.

Liu Bei was still frowning, waved his hand and motioned for him to sit on the side for a while, and asked directly: "Kong Ming, Zhou Yu led the army to Xunyang, will it?"

Liu Bei dragged the sound for a long time, and the meaning was obvious.

Kong Ming shook the feather fan lightly and smiled indifferently: "What does the lord think?" ”

Kong Ming directly kicked the ball to Liu Bei again, Liu Bei rolled his eyes, and said: "Actually, I still think that Gongjin will not betray me, but his move is indeed suspicious." ”

Kong Ming said again: "What does the lord think he should do?" ”

Liu Bei was a little unhappy in his heart, but he couldn't show it, so he had to smile bitterly: "Kong Ming." It's because I don't know what to do that I came to you to discuss. ”

Kong Ming smiled lightly, shook his head, and stroked the feather fan: "Lord! Actually, you already have an idea. Why bother asking Yu Liang. ”

Liu Bei smiled silently, and felt like he had met a soulmate: "I just want to hear your opinion, otherwise I won't be able to make up my mind." ”

Kong Ming arched his hand: "Lord!" Choose to believe in Gong Jin below. ”

The corners of Liu Bei's mouth curled slightly, in fact, he also chose to believe Zhou Yu, but this was just an intuition. There is no direct corroboration and it is not convincing at all, but if these words can come out of Kong Ming's mouth, Liu Bei's heart is even more determined.

"Can you tell us why?" Liu Bei humbly asked.

After a pause, Kong Ming said: "First, if Zhou Yu is an ambitious person, he has every chance to lead the army to destroy the Sun clan directly on the day Sun Ce learns of Sun Ce's death, but Zhou Yu didn't do it at all, but came to mourn alone!" It is self-evident how broad-minded those who can do this are.

Second, after Sun Quan succeeded to the throne. Zhou Yu has always acted domineeringly, why not? Isn't it for the sake of unification and stability within the Jiangdong Sun Clan's military headquarters? Zhou Yu is willing to take the risk of being a master of high merit, just to escort the Sun family, in fact, for many years, as long as Zhou Yu is willing, with an order, Jiangdong has already changed his surname to Zhou! But he didn't.

Third, this time Zhou Yu led the army to Xunyang, but General Guan and General Zhao sent troops before they sent troops, if Zhou Yu wanted to rebel, why bother to occupy Xunyang in one fell swoop. If I were Zhou Yu, I would definitely kill the lord first in Chaisang City, and then destroy a group of important ministers.

Fourth, Zhou Yu is an emotional person. This is the case for Sun Ce and Xiao Qiao, this time Zhou Yu led the army to the battle, if he was treacherous, he would inevitably take Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, and Sun Shao with him, but Zhou Yu didn't do this, and still placed him in the Dadu Governor's Mansion. ”

Kong Ming said four reasons in a row. sighed again: "According to the following opinion, Gong Jin must have something important to do when he rushes to Xunyang this time." ”

Liu Bei listened to it with relish, and the doubts in his heart suddenly disappeared, and he said softly: "What could be more important than taking Songzi?" ”

Kong Ming snorted: "The lord forgot? Of the two people proposed by Shi Yuan, there is still one missing. ”

Liu Bei suddenly realized: "Could it be Lu Zijing!?" ”

Kong Ming didn't say anything, just nodded silently.

At this moment, a small official broke into the hall, hugged his fists and said: "Lord! Eight hundred miles expedited. ”

Liu Bei waved his hand: "Hurry up." ”

The little official opened the bamboo tube, took out the letter and presented it to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei unfolded the list and immediately laughed wildly: "Kong Ming is really a god." Shiyuan was in a hurry, Lu Zijing had already followed the army, and was on his way to Songzi at this time. ”

Kong Ming bowed his hand slightly, and said modestly: "The lord's praise is just a coincidence. ”

It was only at this time that Liu Bei's heart was really put in his stomach.

***********

"Gong Jin! I'll just say that there is something wrong with this war horse, and I really guessed it. ”

Lu Su galloped on the war horse, without the slightest feeling of discomfort, the saddle of the war horse, the stirrups, and the horse's paw made Lu Su's eyes shine, and even he, a person who is not used to riding a war horse, can easily control it.

Zhou Yu nodded: "This thing is really a treasure, with his cavalry combat ability can be increased by at least thirty percent, when Ziming told me a few days ago, I even felt that this kid was lying, and today I knew that I was lonely." ”

Pang Tong on the side raised his head proudly and laughed wildly: "What is this, you know the repeater, right?" ”

Zhou Yu suddenly remembered that Lu Meng was defeated and returned, and Ling Tong couldn't get it back after losing his troops, and asked urgently: "Is it that ten-shot rapid-fire repeater?" ”

Pang Tong nodded: "Exactly!" ”

Lu Su was even more stunned: "Could it be that the crossbow was also invented by the lord?" ”

At this time, Lu Su had already surrendered to Liu Bei, so he would also call Liu Bei the main prince.

Pang Tong was stunned: "Although this was not invented by my father-in-law himself, it has the crystallization of the wisdom of my father-in-law, and the lord also said that this crossbow still has shortcomings, it is a semi-finished product, and it still needs to be improved." ”

"Semi-finished!?" Zhou Yu was shocked: "Such a divine crossbow is only a half-finished product?" ”

Pang Tong said arrogantly: "That's!" This thing has a short range and is not as accurate as an arrow, so it is suitable for tug-of-war but not for large-scale field battles, or even storms! ”

"Tug-of-war!? Tough Battle!? Zhou Yu was stunned: "What is this?" ”

"Eh" Pang Tong also didn't know how to explain to Zhou Yu. Just said softly: "This is the name that my lord gave to various combat methods, in fact, I don't know a lot, I'm still learning." ”

Lu Su and Zhou Yu were completely shocked this time!

Lu Su grinned: "Brother Shiyuan! What my family, your father-in-law, now we are a family. It should be our father-in-law. ”

Pang Tong raised his face and laughed wildly a few times: "What Zijing said is extremely true, it was my slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue!" ”

Zhou Yu pursed his lips and smiled: "Shiyuan, Zijing!" The lord trusts us so much, and this raid on Moling, we can't embarrass the lord. It is bound to kill our majesty and play our momentum! ”

Pang Tong nodded: "Hmm!" Not far in front is Songzi City, Songzi County is a person from the Zhang family of Wu County, this person is stubborn, there is no need to surrender, and he will be destroyed directly! ”

"Shi Yuan's words are exactly what I want!"

Zhou Yu answered, whipped his horse, and galloped away.

*********

"Big brother! Are you going to Moling? ”

Zhang Fei stared at Liu Bei with a pair of ringed eyes, inexplicably.

"What? Can't you? ”

Liu Bei replied naturally. Looks like you've made up your mind.

"How can this be?"

Zhang Fei hurriedly said: "How dangerous it is to go to Moling, once the eldest brother makes some mistakes, we will break the bloodstream, what's the use?" No, absolutely not! ”

On the side, Gao Feng also hugged his fists and said: "Lord! The last general agreed with the words of the three generals, it is better for the lord to sit in Chaisang and command the army, and it seems that the task of leading the army to kill is still left to us generals. ”

Hao Zhao also admonished: "As the lord, your own safety is the most important, if you blindly fight fiercely, you are no different from a reckless man!" ”

Hao Zhao is even more direct. simply compared Liu Bei to a reckless man.

Liu Bei snorted, looked around at the Chinese martial arts in the hall, and paused: "Is there anything else to say?" ”

The crowd was silent, because basically all of them already had a clear attitude.

Liu Bei's gaze finally fell on Kong Ming. asked, "Kong Ming, what do you think about this matter?" ”

"This"

Kong Ming was a little embarrassed, he was silent for a moment, and stood up and said, "Lord! The three generals did not let the lord go to Moling, and the lord had to go to Moling, and the pros and cons of the two were decided by the lord. Our courtiers are only auxiliaries. ”

Kong Ming's words are still somewhat level, not only did not wipe Zhang Fei's face, but also emphasized the right to decide on this matter, and reminded everyone present, don't coerce and entic, the lord has his own lord in the end, do what you should do.

In fact, Kong Ming was also shocked when he learned that Liu Bei was going to Moling! Because once Liu Bei appeared in Moling, then it proved that Liu Bei wanted to face the four major families of Wu County, this courage was simply admirable, but the same shock to the enemy was self-evident.

Zhang Fei was furious and shouted, "Kong Ming! What do you mean? Do you want my eldest brother to die? ”

Kong Ming laughed: "Send to death!?" The lord faced the Cao thief at the beginning! Face Yuan Shao! What kind of heroism, if you are drunk in the face of a mere old woman, what do you want these generals to do? ”

"You" Zhang Fei was furious, waved his tiger palm and greeted Kong Ming.

"Bastard! Retire! Liu Bei hurriedly spoke to stop it, and said: "In my opinion, it's not that I'm afraid, it's you who are afraid!" In my opinion, Kong Ming's words are reasonable, we have to take Jiangdong within three months, how can we do it without some determination! ”

"The generals will obey!" Liu Bei ordered directly.

Zhong Wenwu immediately clenched his fists and arched his hands: "The end will be." ”

"Hao Zhao listens to the order!"

"The last general!"

"Order you to lead an army of 3,000 arches to guard Chaisang, there must be no mistake!"

"Order!"

"Tai Shi Ci listens to orders!"

"The last general!"

"I order you to continue to train the navy, supervise the construction of warships, and form horns with Hao Zhao in case of accidents."

"The last will be ordered!"

"Where are Zhang Fei and Gao Feng?"

"In"

"Order the two of you to lead two thousand troops, and rush to Moling with me to deter Eastern Wu!"

"Order."

At this moment, a small official broke into the hall, hugged his fists and said: "Lord! Eight hundred miles of good news. ”

Liu Bei was so excited that he waved his hand: "Submit it!" ”

The little official took out the letter and presented it to Kong Ming on the side, and Kong Ming directly handed it to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei opened the list and nodded: "Not bad!" Gongjin has already taken Songzi and killed the Songzi County Order, and the rest of the Songzi officials have all been captured and are waiting to be disposed of. ”

Zhang Fei grinned: "Great! Since the eldest brother is going to Moling, let's follow Zhou Yu, this kid. ”

How could Liu Bei not know Zhang Fei's thoughts, nodded in agreement, and said, "Kong Ming! Select some officials from Chaisang, and let us accompany us, and we will also develop the Tuntian policy to other counties. ”

Kong Ming bowed his hand: "No." ”

*********

Lujiang County, Songzi County.

Above the county government, Liu Bei sat on the head, dressed in armor, full of heroism, on both sides of the hall were accompanied by civil and military personnel, the military generals were majestic and murderous, and the civil officials were calm and calm, and they were very elegant.

The kneeling in the hall are officials at all levels in Songzi, Songzi is a medium-sized county town, although I have seen a real army, but it is the first time I have seen an army like Liu Bei who really came out of the blood.

Disturbed! Disturbed! Trembled!

These were the expressions of these officials at this time, Liu Bei just laughed secretly, and knew how to deal with it.

"Guys, please get up." Liu Bei smiled and waved his hand.

The officials slowly stood up from the ground, lowered their heads, and did not dare to look Liu Bei directly into the eyes.

Liu Bei said softly: "Zhang Xianling is stubborn and wants to go against this general, this is what he deserves, and it has nothing to do with you." ”

As soon as they heard this, the officials' hanging hearts immediately relaxed halfway.

"Exactly! Exactly"

"We are willing to surrender to Uncle Huang." After that, all the officials bowed their heads again.

Liu Bei hurried to get up, turned into the hall, helped the oldest of them up, and comforted: "We are all people of the Han Dynasty, but brothers and sisters, and I, Liu Bei, will not kill innocent people, please rest assured." ”

"Rest assured, rest assured"

Everyone nodded busily.

Liu Bei looked back and said softly: "Zhang County's order is still under the law, Songzi County cannot be without a county order for a day, in order to make Songzi naturalized as soon as possible, Bei will appoint a person to act as a county commander in advance, and you need to assist attentively." ”

"It's Nature, Nature"

Liu Bei smiled secretly and called, "Jian Yong! You take a few people to stay. ”

Jian Yong in the hall arched his hand and said: "Don't worry, the lord will definitely let Songzi start Tuntian as soon as possible." ”

Liu Bei nodded, and said: "Jian Yong, pay attention to observation during the administration, once there is an outstanding performer, report it immediately, and he will be the next Songzi County Commander." ”

Jian Yong smiled lightly, and immediately understood Liu Bei's intentions: "Don't worry, lord." ”

This is an incentive policy, as long as a little sweetness is given, these officials will inevitably cooperate with their lives, in fact, they don't care who is the lord, they only care about their own interests. (To be continued.) )
