The twenty-fourth episode of the fake hunt assassinated Liu Gong
Sun Qian felt that Zhang Yi's words did make some sense, so he hurriedly returned to Runan to discuss the feasibility of this matter with Liu Bei.
Liu Bei is also not sure, this is not to be discussed with others, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are fierce generals, and they will definitely look down on such a means, and Mi Zhu is a humble gentleman, he will definitely feel awkward in his heart, as for Jian Yong, this person is a little unable to pretend to be a problem.
Why don't you mention Zhao Yun and Chen Dao? Captain of the Guard, just be a bodyguard, and don't get involved in decision-making.
So Liu Bei can only discuss with Sun Gan, don't look at Sun Gan is also a celebrity, but he does not reject this kind of thing, or even if he rejects, he will not reject Liu Bei.
Assassination is not uncommon, and organized assassinations are not uncommon in this era. The family has done such a thing many times, and Sun Qian can hear a lot of gossip.
Why is it not recorded in the history books? Because there are really few of these assassins who are worthy of being written down in history, they are all unknown people. But if you give an example, you will definitely be able to find it, such as the assassination of Shi Geng in Liangzhou more than ten years ago, that is, he was assassinated and killed, which caused Ma Teng's rebellion and was also related to Han Sui, so it was written into the history books.
"Is this reliable?" Liu Bei couldn't make up his mind, he didn't know if this could be done.
"You can give it a try, and if you fail, you can push it on Zhang Yi."
Liu Bei nodded, "Then try it." ”
Liu Bei never mentioned the word assassination, nor did he mention Liu Pi and Gong Du.
Seeing that Liu Bei agreed, Sun Qian immediately sent someone to send a letter in the direction of Lujiang, which was addressed to Zhuge Jin of Lujiang. Because according to Zhang Yi and his agreement, if Liu Bei agreed, Zhuge Jin would be notified, because most of the people sent by Zhang Yi were transferred from Zhuge Jin's side.
And Zhuge Jin and Sun Gan are still half of the same country, although Sun Qian is from Qingzhou, but he lives in Xuzhou all the year round, and Zhuge Jin still has half of the friendship of the same country, so as not to be noticed.
Seeing Sun Gan's reply, Zhuge Jin immediately called someone to find Shi Xiu and Hua Rong. Zhuge Jin didn't know what Zhang Yi was going to send them for, but he was smart not to ask, but according to Zhang Yi's instructions, he said to the two: "Sun Qian replied!" ”
Just one sentence, nothing else. Shi Xiu didn't say much, said goodbye to Zhuge Jin with Hua Rong, took more than a dozen marksmen, and went straight to the boundary of Yuzhou.
Ten days later, Liu Bei invited Liu Pi and Gong Du to hunt in the mountains. In ancient times, military generals were more fond of hunting, because there was too little entertainment at that time. Therefore, if the ancients were greedy for fun, they often preferred to play with three things, beauty, treasure, and safari.
Of course, in later dynasties, some will be added, such as parties, drinking, poetry, calligraphy and painting. However, at this time, most of the generals only have these three things.
Liu Pi and Gong Du are not highly educated, but they have some courage, so they like to hunt very much. It just so happens that Li Tong can't be conquered for the time being, so it's good to go out hunting together.
Liu Bei watched the two rise up and knew that they could make a plan. So he said, "Two generals, why don't we compare and see who can shoot the most prey before sunset?" ”
Liu Bi laughed: "What Xuande Gong said is very similar to my heart, but it is better to have a colorful head." ”
"How about the loser prepare wine?" Gong Du proposed.
"That's true!"
"That's it!"
The three of them agreed, and they went hunting separately. Liu Bei took Chen Zhi to pick a direction, and went hunting by himself, he did not take Zhao Yun with him, but asked Zhao Yun to protect his family in the city.
Zhao Yun's martial arts are strong, and his military ability is also good, but he is a little too "pedantic", and he has not been under Liu Bei's account for a long time, so Liu Bei did not let him participate in this matter.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei didn't take him with him, both of them were sent by him to recruit troops.
Liu Pi and Gong Du also separated, with a small team of guards, looking for prey all over the mountain.
Just when passing by a bush, more than a dozen riders suddenly ran over from the side, and shot an arrow at Liu Bi and the others, knocking down several people.
Liu Bi's personal guards immediately became anxious, "Protect the general!" ”
Some of them went to chase and kill those riders, and some of them held shields in front of Liu Pi.
Liu Bi was almost shot by an arrow just now, and was startled, and after being protected, he immediately jumped like thunder: "Kill them for me, and leave no one behind!" ”
At this moment, a person suddenly came out of the bushes behind Liu Pi. It turned out that there was a hole here, and the man was covered with a yellow shirt and hid in the hole, and Liu Pi and the others didn't pay attention to it at all.
This man, dressed in short clothes, crawled out from under the bushes, quietly approached Liu Pi with a ring-headed knife, and stabbed him in the back of the heart.
Liu Bi was shouting, and at that time, a miserable scream broke out and he fell to the ground and died.
Liu Bi's personal guards hurriedly turned around, but they didn't want to hear a loud shout, so they killed two or three people in a row, and the others panicked and scattered and fled.
That person was Shi Xiu, he didn't expect it to be so easy, Liu Bi actually passed by the bush, and he wanted people to lure him over! I discussed a variety of situations and devised several plans, but none of them worked.
After Shi Xiu killed Liu Bi's personal soldiers, he rode on Liu Bi's war horse and went to support the dozen marksmen.
Shi Xiu killed from behind, and under the attack from both sides, those pursuing Liu Bi's personal guards were quickly repulsed.
"Let's go, let's go find Brother Huarong!"
Shi Xiu took the marksmen to pick up Hua Rong, and as soon as he was halfway there, he saw Hua Rong running towards them.
Hua Rong's eyes were sharp, he saw them first, and immediately beckoned them over.
Shi Xiu patted his horse and hurriedly asked, "Have you ever succeeded?" ”
Hua Rong nodded, "Gong was shot in the forehead by me with an arrow." ”
"In that case, let's return to Lujiang immediately!" Shi Xiu said.
"Good!"
Everyone immediately went out of the mountain, but they didn't want to meet Liu Bei at a fork in the road.
When Liu Bei saw them, he found that he didn't know them, and immediately knew that they were sent by Zhang Yi to assassinate Liu Pi and Gong Du, and then looked at their bloodstains, and knew that they must have been assassinated.
Liu Bei sighed in his heart that he was unlucky, but he knew that he couldn't let them go, so he could only shout: "Stop, who are you?" ”
Hua Rong was taken aback, and immediately shot an arrow over, hitting Liu Bei's shoulder.
As soon as Chen Zhi saw that Liu Bei was injured, of course he couldn't do it, so he immediately protected Liu Bei, and then commanded his soldiers why Shi Xiu, Hua Rong and others.
Shi Xiu knew the whole story, he was afraid that Hua Rong would shoot Liu Bei to death with an arrow, so he said: "Let's go quickly, don't be surrounded by them, it's important to return to Lujiang!" ”
So everyone beat their horses and galloped all the way to the Lujiang River.
