Jiao Zan faced Dong Heng, Meng Liang faced Dong Chao, the two of them each used less than ten rounds to directly hack their opponents to death, although Qin Zhao wanted them to leave the lives of these two people, but it was too late.

"Drop! Jiao Zan was detected to kill Dong Heng, Meng Liang killed Dong Chao, Dong Heng and Dong Chao's main attributes before death were 83 and 81 respectively, congratulations to the host for obtaining Soul Fragment 2, and the current host has Soul Fragment 46. ”

Yu Ban looked at his subordinates and generals all dying on the spot, Yu Ban's heart had collapsed, he didn't care whether he was an opponent or not, he jumped up from the ground again, grabbed his spear and attacked Qin Zhao again. Qin Zhao sighed, and as soon as he made a random move, he once again fell to the ground in the ban, while Jiao Zan and Meng Liang shot together and directly took the ban.

"General Yu, the one who knows the times is Junjie, why do you bother like this!"

Yu Ban shouted: "Piff, you have the ability to kill me!" ”

At this time, Meng Liang's temper on the side was suddenly aroused by him, and he said loudly: "General, I see that this kid doesn't know how to lift, so just chop it!" ”

After speaking, he was about to make a move, Qin Zhao hurriedly shouted: "General Meng, stop!" ”

Yu Ban was already in a cold sweat on his forehead at this time, how could he have thought that Meng Liang would do it, but he still turned his head away, with an attitude of killing if he wanted to.

"I will detain the ban first, and then deal with it when I go back!"

Cao Ren fled, Yu Ban was captured, and Fancheng was also captured, but the flood in Fancheng had not subsided, and Qi Jiguang's army was stationed in Fancheng, and together with Lu Chang, who surrendered, he first pacified the people, collected and surrendered the soldiers, and at the same time strengthened the city defense, preparing to face the subsequent test. And Qin Zhao, after a short rest, continued to rush towards Xiangyang, preparing to encircle Er Zhurong with Zhou Yu's army.

When Cao Ren retreated, he immediately sent a horse to inform Zhang Liao of Caiyang, Zhang Liao was also shocked when he heard that Xiangyang and Fancheng had been broken, and led thousands of soldiers and horses under his command to retreat quietly that night. The next day, after Chen Qingzhi discovered Caiyang's situation, he immediately marched to take Caiyang, Dengxian and others one after another, and directly attacked the city of Xiangyang.

Er Zhurong in the city also inquired about the situation in Fancheng at first, but without Cao Ren's order, he did not dare to act easily. It wasn't until Zhou Yu attacked and Chen Qing's troops approached the city, and Cao Ren had fled without any instructions, that Er Zhurong realized that the matter was critical.

But now in Xiangyang City, there are only a few thousand soldiers and horses, and he knows that there is no chance of dragging it down. But now he is in a dilemma, Xiangyang has been heavily surrounded, because he surrendered once before, and now he wants to surrender, Chen Qingzhi will not allow it.

However, Chen Qingzhi seemed to have known Er Zhurong's thoughts, and directly asked Yue Fei to shoot a letter into the city, persuading Er Zhurong to surrender, and promising that as long as Er Zhurong could surrender the city, everything before could be blamed. But no matter how Chen Qingzhi promised, Er Zhurong couldn't believe him; Thinking about it, if he meets a person who has rebelled, he will not forgive the other party.

But Erzhurong was not willing to sit still, and he finally came up with an idea.

The next day, as soon as the morning dawned, the gate of Xiangyang City was opened, and there were already spies who went to report, and only after Yue Fei and Chen Qingzhi's army gathered did they find that the brigade that came out of the city was actually the ordinary people in Xiangyang City, with a vast number of about more than 10,000 people. And the ranks of the people were mixed with Er Zhurong's army of 5,000, and Er Zhurong threatened the lives of the people and coerced Chen Qingzhi to let him go. And Er Zhurong hid directly in the center of the team, with some henchmen and soldiers, guarding himself.

Looking at this kind of formation, Chen Qingzhi and Yue Fei didn't know how to deal with it for a while, and they didn't dare to make a move against such a mixed team, if they hurt the people, they would inevitably lose the hearts of the people. So Chen Qingzhi had no choice but to let Er Zhurong coerce the people towards Xuchang.

The news that Zhou Yu and Chen Qingzhi met in Xiangyang, and Cao Ren was defeated and returned to Xudu, spread, especially Yuan Shao and Ma Teng, who had been paying attention to the Jingxiang battle situation. And Zhang He also followed up to attack Fengqiu, Pingqiu, etc., and completely verified a sentence - the wall fell down and everyone pushed it.

After Ma Teng captured Wancheng, he ordered the army to stop advancing, because if it went further south, it would meet Qin Zhao's army, after all, both of them were carrying the edict of Liu Xieyi, the son of heaven, and they were still nominal allies, and the two soldiers and horses would not do anything at this time. So the two sides invariably formed a vacuum in the middle.

Ma Teng took his subordinates Ma Chao, Pang De, Wei Ran, Gao Xianzhi and others to discuss how to march, and at the same time, Yao Chong, who was far behind, also escorted the soldiers to Wancheng.

"The lord has now taken the two old capitals of Chang'an and Luoyang, if he can go further, please invite the Son of Heaven to be one of them, and he will be a great hero for the revival of the Han Dynasty; Now Yuan Shao and Wu Ming are all marching for the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, so their subordinates think that they should welcome the Son of Heaven first. ”

Yao Chong's opinion is very simple, the goal is very clear, that is, whoever grabs Liu Xie first will have the initiative, and Ma Teng is the descendant of General Fubo Ma Yuan, and he has always regarded himself as a loyal minister of the Han family, Yao Chong's suggestion is also in line with Ma Teng's consistent thinking.

It's just that at this time, Ma Teng didn't speak, but turned his head and asked the others: "I wonder if the generals have any other objections?" ”

At this time, Gao Xianzhi looked at Yao Chong and said with a smile: "Although Mr. Yao's words are reasonable, they are not feasible according to the current situation, and there are two reasons for this. First, when the princes of the world rise together, although there is the Son of Heaven in hand, they can nominally control the princes of all parties, but in fact, there are almost no princes in the world who can obey the orders of the Son of Heaven, and even if the strength is so strong, it will inevitably be defeated by the princes of the world, let alone the lord? With the Son of Heaven in hand, he will definitely become the target of the common attack of the princes of the world, which is the reason why the Son of Heaven cannot be welcomed; Second, Mr. Yao also said that this Son of Heaven is the object of Yuan Shao and Wu Ming's joint struggle, and the lord entered the Central Plains with the soldiers of Xiliang, and he had lost the opportunity of geographical advantages, and could not compete with Wu Ming and Yuan Shao, the two great princes, if they won the battle, they would definitely lose. Why not let Yuan Shao and Wu Ming compete, and the lord will sit and reap the benefits? ”

Gao Xianzhi's words made Ma Teng smile and said, "What General Gao said is extremely true! Yuanzhi, although what you said is not bad, but the current situation is indeed not the time to be strong. Anyway, our army will be stationed in Wancheng for the time being, waiting for the changes in the world. When the time comes, whether to advance or retreat, it depends on Wu Ming and Yuan Shao, who can welcome the Son of Heaven back. ”

After Ma Teng finished speaking, he looked at Gao Xianzhi, and then nodded with satisfaction, his eyes were clearly full of praise, Gao Xianzhi naturally understood what Ma Teng meant.

Yao Chong is such a smart person, how can he not understand.
