Chapter 8: The Assassination (II)
Xuchang Zuo General's Mansion.
At the end of the gallery, there is a side hall.
In the side hall, Liu Guanzhang and the three of them gathered together, planning the plan that had been prepared for a long time.
"Wen Chang. What's going on with Gao Feng? What progress can be made? ”
For Gao Feng, Liu Bei is very concerned, this may be the first real general that Liu Qiang has encountered when he crosses over here, although Guan Zhang is a 10,000-strong enemy, but he is still slightly inferior in terms of commanding troops.
"Gao Feng is a man! Very bloody.
Cao Cao also seems to want to win him over, since he killed Gao Shun, Cao Cao took Gao Shun's wife and children to Xuchang, and promised him a mansion, carriage and horses, gold, silver and jade, but Feng did not accept it, and would rather sleep on the street than accept Cao Cao's favor.
Wen Yuan and Gao Shun have an old relationship, seeing that this widowed mother and young son are pitiful, they often accept help, and Cao Cao also wants to use Wen Yuan's hand to recruit Gao Feng, so he ignores it, Wen Yuan knows Gao Feng's ambition, and it is not easy to open his mouth to solicit. ”
Guan Yu seemed to appreciate Gao Feng very much, and there was a taste of sympathy between his words.
This is what Liu Bei wants!
As long as you Guan Yu think that he is a talent, then the rest of the things will be much easier.
"Yun Chang, this matter should not be rushed, and before you are absolutely sure, remember not to solicit in vain. Get in touch with them more often and then solicit them when the time is right. ”
Guan Yu nodded and said, "No." ”
"How's it going over there?" Liu Bei turned his head to look at Zhang Fei and asked.
Zhang Fei laughed and said, "Big brother, don't worry." At this point, these rangers have mastered the basic battle strategy, and the rest is daily training. ”
Liu Bei nodded and advised: "Yide, this army and horses are very important, remember to act carefully." I'd rather train for less than an hour or two a day, and never let Cao Thief notice anything. ”
Zhang Fei clasped his hands into fists and said, "Big brother don't worry." ”
Liu Bei calculated, in a few months, Zhang Fei's elite soldiers will be trained, Huainan Yuan Shu should not be able to hold on, then it is the time for him to escape from Xuchang, as long as he survives these months, Liu Bei will be like a fish into the sea, the tiger will return to the mountain.
Night is gradually coming, and the night sky more than 1,800 years ago can still be seen full of stars, and the moonlight is like a note, bright and clear.
Liu Bei was busy with all kinds of things in the mansion all afternoon, collecting all kinds of unknown tools, and the family didn't know what it was, and Mrs. Gan didn't know what it was.
"Liu Jun, why didn't you put this hoe in the vegetable garden?"
"What's the use of this inch-long piece of bamboo?"
"And this ring of knives, what are you doing at home?"
Liu Bei glanced at Mrs. Gan, laughed, and said, "It's hard for me to sleep without these things." ”
"Ahh
Mrs. Gan was taken aback, still puzzled, but she didn't ask any more questions, just answered, and went back to the bed.
Sou!
A magic arrow flew and hit Liu Bei's door frame.
Liu Bei rushed out of the door with an arrow, chased a few meters away, and a black shadow disappeared from the eaves.
Liu Bei didn't chase after him, turned around and came to the door, but saw that there was a silk letter on the arrow handle, untied it, opened it and read it, Liu Bei was shocked.
Mrs. Gan was also taken aback and asked, "Liu Jun, what's the matter?" ”
Liu Bei laughed and said, "It's okay, my concubine is at ease." ”
After a long time, Liu Bei placed these objects, blew out the candles, and went to sleep soundly.
Stretched out his hand to hold Mrs. Gan in his arms, and Mrs. Gan also snuggled in Liu Bei's arms, it turned out that Mrs. Gan had not slept yet.
"What? Can't sleep? ”
"Yes! I miss my sister a little, I don't know how she is now? ”
Mrs. Gan's voice was a little melancholy, Liu Bei only felt that there seemed to be tears on his arms, so he picked up Mrs. Gan's pretty face, gently wiped away the tears with his thumb, and said indifferently: "Madame, be relieved, there is Mi Zhu, no problem, don't worry." ”
For ancient women, men are her everything, and for modern Liu Qiang, such a gentle, kind and sincere woman is worth guarding and cherishing.
Kissing Mrs. Gan's forehead, the two hugged each other and fell asleep.
Whoop~Whoa~
A thick pant wafted through the quiet night sky
After the passion, the rapids retreat, leaving behind fatigue and fatigue.
Before long, the snoring sounded.
At the end of the time, at the end of the time.
This is the time of the alternation of night and day, and it is also the time when people are sleepy, and the real assassination takes place at this hour.
Three black shadows floated past in the courtyard, their bodies as light as swallows, and they did not make a sound.
One of them drew a short knife and slowly plunged into the crack in the door, moving the wooden wedge little by little.
One of them took the short knife in his mouth, gently pushed open the window door, jumped into the room, and rushed into the room.
There was a pop, and there was no news.
The wooden wedge gradually moved away, pushed the door in, and a bright long knife fell from the sky, hitting the man's shoulder, and the short knife suddenly fell to the ground, but he didn't dare to say anything in pain.
The man behind him suddenly felt bad, tiptoed, and ten steps away in front of him was Liu Qiang on the bed, getting closer and closer.
I don't know what he stepped on, and suddenly a large stick was erected in front of him, hitting the assassin in the head, and the assassin immediately fainted to the ground.
Liu Bei was still snoring like thunder.
The man with the wounded shoulder endured the severe pain, and looked at the two people on the ground, one stepped on the hoe, and the wooden stick came to his head, and the other hit the stun; flew through the window, but unexpectedly, the ground had already prepared sharp bamboo wood, and before he could stand firmly, there was already blood all over the ground.
The Assassin received an order to die, and if he was unsuccessful, he became a benevolent.
Picking up the short knife on the ground, he approached Liu Bei step by step, each step making the assassin tremble and sweat profusely.
Before coming to Liu Bei's bed, the assassin held his breath and raised his knife
Liu Bei suddenly turned over, the short knife in his hand had already been inserted into the assassin's abdomen, the white knife went in and the red knife came out, Liu Bei squinted, and continued to turn over and sleep.
This little ghost has seen a lot, but it's actually quite useful.
"Ah~" a scream broke the dawn.
Immediately after that, Liu Bei only felt that his body was shaking very much, opened his hazy eyes, rubbed his eyes, and took advantage of the blood stains on his eyes.
"Ah~ah~" Mrs. Gan in front of her was shocked, and her body kept retreating.
Liu Bei hurriedly got up, and saw that the short knife on the bed was stained with blood and had been stained red, so he hurriedly put the short knife off the bed, came to Mrs. Gan, and hugged her into his arms.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Mrs. Gan buried her head in Liu Bei's chest, not daring to face this cruel scene.
"Someone!"
Two attendants broke into the door, and when they saw this, they fell to the ground in fright.
Liu Bei was calm and calm, and said, "These people are assassins, hurry up and clean up the room." ”
The attendants hurriedly got up from the ground and summoned men from outside the door to clear the assassin out.
Because he inherited Liu Bei's memory, he didn't feel a little disgusting in the face of this bloodstained scene, as if he was adapting to it, or he was numb.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were even more panicked when they saw the black-clothed assassin brought out of their homes, and came to Liu Bei's room, but they were also relieved to see that Liu Bei was safe and sound.
Zhang Fei complained: "Big brother, why don't we sleep together, it's easy to dodge with open guns, it's hard to defend against hidden arrows, this time it didn't work, they can't guarantee that there will be a next time, together with the brothers, it's good to protect the eldest brother." ”
Guan Yu posted: "What Yide said is extremely true. ”
Liu Bei comforted Mrs. Gan in his arms, and then said to Guan Zhangyan: "Second brother, third brother and relieved, how can I get close to me if I am such a petty person."
Last night I dreamed of a thief invasion, I pulled out a knife is a stab, and then turned over and fell back to sleep, this morning has been fulfilled, it can be seen that I have the protection of God, there is no need to worry.
Besides, if I leave, Madame, she"
Liu Bei looked down at poor Mrs. Gan, and Mrs. Gan also looked at Liu Bei with longing.
"Madame, she has suffered with me, and from now on, I will never abandon her again, never."
Zhang Fei was a little annoyed, and was about to say something, Guan Yu waved his hand to stop him, and said, "Big brother, brother understands." ”
Liu Bei pulled Guan Zhang and the others to a corner, took out the silk letter from his arms, and unfolded it and handed it to Guan Zhang to see, and the two were immediately shocked.
"Someone is secretly helping us." Liu Bei said softly: "Yun Chang, you have to pay more attention to the movements around you recently, and tell me any signs at any time." ”
Guan Yu was stunned and said, "Big brother, you said this person is"
Liu Bei nodded in agreement.
Hiss~
Guan Yu gasped, his phoenix eyes swung left and right, and he said to himself, "No!?" ”
Zhang Fei didn't understand a little, seeing that the two of them were playing dumb riddles, he also got involved, and said, "If you can't do anything, tell me quickly." ”
Liu Bei said softly: "At this time, I still guess, when the time is ripe, I will tell you, Yide don't worry, be a little patient." ”
Xuchang Sikong Mansion (at this time, Cao Cao's official worship Sikong, the general of the chariot).
Cao Cao sat on the top with a gloomy face, and Xun Yu and Guo Jia were listed on the left and right.
"Lord, do you want to organize a second group of people?" Xun Yu asked.
Cao Cao didn't say a word, as if he was worried.
At this time, Guo Jiayan said: "My lord, I agree to kill Liu Bei, but it is definitely not at this time. ”
Cao Cao remained silent.
"Liu Bei is a hidden dragon, don't kill it at this time, if the dragon enters the sea in the future, it will be too late to regret it." Xun Yu said again.
"Liu Bei is indeed a hidden dragon, but he can't move anymore at this time.
First, the unsuccessful assassination of the emperor's uncle will inevitably spread in Xuchang City, and others will inevitably suspect the lord, and it will be unfavorable to the lord at this time;
Second, Liu Bei escaped this time, and he will naturally strengthen all of them, and it will be even more difficult to start at this time, plus Liu Bei has two generals Guan Zhang, these two are ten thousand enemies, and who are his opponents" Guo Jiajin said.
"So what?" Cao Cao opened his mouth and said, "Could it be that I watched Liu Bei slowly grow!?" ”
Xun Yu knew that Cao Cao couldn't tolerate Liu Bei, so he said: "My lord, as far as I know, Zhang Fei is secretly training an elite army at this time under the banner of meeting friends with martial arts, with a total of more than 100 people;
And Guan Yu made fun with Wen Yuan every day, using Wen Yuan as a cover, but in fact he came for Gao Shun's son, Gao Feng; Lord, Liu Bei has great ambitions and must not stay. ”
Guo Jia still argued on the basis of reason, and said: "Even if Liu Bei has great ambitions, so what? This person's foundation is still there, even if the dragon enters the sea, it will not be able to stand for a long time, and the lord only needs to personally command the army to conquer it, and he will definitely be annihilated in one fell swoop.
But at this time, the lord decided not to kill Liu Bei again, and he lost the heart of the world's soldiers for the sake of a hero, and the gains outweighed the losses. ”
