Chapter VI: Coerced Confessions
"Lord, it seems that this Qiao Fei has a conspiracy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 On the way, Lu Bu deliberately slowed down the speed of the march, although Qiao Fei didn't say it, but there was a bit of urgency in his words, Chen Gong, who was already puzzled by these sudden invitations, was even more sure that this Qiao Fei was definitely not at ease here.
"There are indeed a lot of problems, Wen Yuan." Lu Bu motioned to the Red Rabbit Horse to slow down, asked Zhang Liao to follow, and said in a low voice: "I will slow down the march here, you take a few people first, go to the area of Anhui County to reconnoiter the terrain, and by the way, see what kind of medicine is sold in this Liu Xun gourd." ”
"Yes." Zhang Liao nodded, and quietly ordered a few people to secretly leave the team, preparing to find an opportunity to surpass Lu Bu and them to Anhui County to find out.
"Wen Xiang, keep an eye on them, don't let them run away." Lu Bu looked at Xu Sheng again, and finally said, "There is no need to hide. ”
"Good!" Xu Sheng nodded quietly, intentionally or unintentionally, getting closer to Qiao Fei and them.
Qiao Fei only felt a chill suddenly rise behind him, Xu Sheng actually came to them with a few elites, staring at them, without the slightest intention of concealing it, worried that his deeds would be revealed, but he didn't dare to speak, so he could only move forward in a muffled voice.
Jiangdong, Jiujiang Daying.
Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, Dong Xi and other Jiangdong generals gathered here.
"Since the day before yesterday, Liu Xun has frequently mobilized troops and horses, and according to our detailed report, Liu Xun has mobilized at least nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses to gather in Anhui County." Zhou Yu drew a line on the map.
"If you take the land route, Anhui County is the northeast gateway of the Lujiang River, but I don't know who came to commit it, and it made Liu Xun so aggressive." Sun Ce frowned.
"No matter who it is, for us, it is a godsend opportunity to take the opportunity to enter Lujiang." Zhou Yu said with a smile: "Under Liu Xun's command, the Ma Bu Army has a total of about 30,000 horses, although our army is located in the six counties of Jiangdong, but the foundation is not stable, it is not easy to attack, before I was ready to show weakness, to be arrogant, and then the disaster led to the east, deceiving its main force out of the nest, taking advantage of the weakness, now it seems, but there is no need to be so troublesome." Zhou Yu smiled and pointed to the country.
"Liu Xun mobilized troops and horses into Anhui County at this moment, so eager, there will inevitably be a flaw in the internal defense, we just need to attack the east and west, send a general to lead the water army down the river, and attract Liu Xun's garrison along the river to Longshu and Yangquan, and then the main force of our army took the opportunity to log in from Xunyang and take Shu County directly, so that Liu Xun's position was in chaos, and then bluffed, making an illusion of attacking with all his strength, so that he did not dare to move, our army took the opportunity to encroach on the counties of Lujiang step by step, oppressing its living space, and when he reacted, even if he knew the plan, At that time, he will be a rootless wanderer, and unless he fights to the death, he can only wait for death! ”
"Wonderful!" Sun Ce couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "It's just according to Gongjin's plan, but I don't know which of the generals is willing to lead all the way to the division and attract the attention of Liu Xun's garrison?" ”
Everyone knows that there is no battle in this way, and they each shrank their necks, no one wants to go, originally this kind of thing can be done by letting a young general go, but to attract the attention of Liu Xun's army, it is necessary to have a general with enough fame, Huang Gai looked left and right, and said with a wry smile: "Let the veteran go to lure the enemy." ”
"If the old general is willing to go, this matter can get twice the result with half the effort." Zhou Yu couldn't help but light up when he saw Huang Gai coming out of the ranks, and nodded with a smile.
At the same time, Lujiang, Anhui County.
After hearing that Lu Bu was indeed settled in Dongyang, Liu Xun, who was not very relieved, finally brought another 2,000 men and horses over, and constantly sent sentries to inquire about Lu Bu's movements, and finally got that Lu Bu really entered the Lujiang River and came all the way to Anhui County, and was immediately furious.
"It's good that you Lu Fengxian, you don't even remember the old feelings, and come to seize my territory!" Liu Xun angrily grabbed the collar of the messenger scout, and roared angrily: "Say, how many men and horses did he bring?" ”
"Five...... More than 500 people, moreover, all cavalry! The scout said tremblingly.
"More than 500 people, and all of them are cavalry?" Liu Xun casually threw the scout on the ground and sneered: "Lujiang is not a plain, only five hundred cavalry want to come to me to make trouble, Lu Rong, Qiao Sheng, you two each order three thousand men and horses to go out of the city with me to ambush Lu Bu, and the others guard the city!" ”
"Yes!" The two agreed, and each went to gather people.
In a short time, the gate of Anhui County opened, and six thousand people and horses under the leadership of Liu Xun went to the Shuangzhen Peak thirty miles outside Anhui County, where the terrain was dangerous, similar to a line of sky, and the peaks on both sides were covered by forests, which was an excellent place for ambushes and a natural barrier through Anhui County.
If it is infantry from Dongyang to Anhui County, it will take two days, but Lu Bu and his party are all cavalry, even if Lu Bu intends to slow down, it will be more than twice as fast as the infantry, and if the horse is whipped, it will only take half a day to arrive, Zhang Liao took four knights all the way to the foot of Shuangzhen Peak, but he strangled the war horse.
"What a dangerous place, if the enemy sets up an ambush here, I am afraid that it will be impossible to escape!" Zhang Liao looked at the two peaks on both sides of the road in front of him, although they were not steep, the road was rugged and difficult to navigate, and there was only a narrow road in the middle that could accommodate two riders in parallel.
"General, there seems to be a large number of soldiers and horses coming this way." An accompanying knight suddenly turned over and dismounted, one ear pressed to the ground, and after a moment, raised his head and frowned at Zhang Liaodao.
"Get out of the valley first." Zhang Liao took four people to ride out of the valley, and after ordering one person to stay and guard the horses, he quietly turned back with the other three, and saw Liu Xun pouring into the valley with a large number of men and horses, and commanding a large number of soldiers to hide on both sides of the valley.
"Humph!" Zhang Liao snorted coldly, who didn't know that these people were here to ambush them, and then quietly retreated with people, found the war horse, and quickly turned back the way they came.
Here Zhang Liao went to tell Lu Bu about Liu Xun's ambush, but Jiangdong Sun Ce reacted faster, Huang Gai took hundreds of ships down the Jiujiang River, and on each ship, there were a lot of straw men, mixed with two sergeants, making the appearance of a large army attack, which made Liu Xun's army on the shore very nervous, while closely watching Huang Gai's movements, while gathering troops and horses, preparing to deal with Huang Gai's pursuit.
And Sun Ce, but when the sun was setting and the world was getting darker, he quietly took Xunyang City, and at this moment, Zhang Liao also gathered Lu Bu's soldiers and horses, and told him about the large number of ambushes in Shuangzhen Peak.
"I wonder if General Qiao has anything to add?" Lu Bu was condescending on horseback, looking at Qiao Fei who was carried down by the majestic sea like a chicken, but in a faint tone, there was a touch of murderous intent.
"The last general...... The last general doesn't know what Wen Hou means? A panicked and frightened look flashed on Qiao Fei's face, and he tried his best to calm down.
"Really?" Lu Bu nodded and waved his hand.
Xiong Kuo Hai Senran smiled, pulled out a board axe from his waist, kicked down one of Qiao Fei's accompanying knights, and the board axe in his hand rose and fell, chopping off the opponent's head.
Qiao Fei's heart jumped fiercely, he had long heard that this Lu Bu was extremely cruel, but when he saw it today, sure enough, the fear on his face was even worse.
"You have two more chances, and the next time you speak, you must think it carefully." Lu Bu looked at Qiao Fei with a smile.
Qiao Fei looked at Lu Bu in fear, scared in his heart, and was hesitating to see it, Lu Bu looked at the sky, and suddenly said, "Kill!" ”
"Yes!" A bloodthirsty cruelty flashed in his broad sea eyes, and he kicked the other knight to the ground with one kick, and then the axe fell, and another human head fell to the ground.
"Why!" Qiao Fei looked at the other party incredulously, although the lives of people in the troubled world are like mustard, but this is not a war, and this killing is too casual.
"You're running out of time." Lu Bu shook his head and said with a regretful face: "General Qiao Fei, you only have one chance left, if you insist on not saying it, you can also explain your last words, a certain family is very appreciative of General Qiao, a loyal person who regards death as home, if you can do it, you will definitely do it for you." ”
Qiao Fei felt that his bladder was a little hot, he was just a general, to put it bluntly, he was the kind of existence that took care of the family, who had never seen this kind of ruthless person who killed people without even frowning, seeing that the nine-foot-tall evil man came over with ill intentions, he hurriedly shouted: "I said, I said, don't kill me!" ”
What loyalty, in the face of a small life, let's give way.
