Chapter 0456 - Man Kills Me for Fish
Lu Bu and Zhang Liao, wanting to repeat the old tricks, attacked Li Dao in two ways.
And Lu Bu's calculations have long been seen through by Jia Xu.
Lu Bu's army had not yet formed a flanking attack, and the drums and trumpets of Li Dao's army sounded all day after day. Li Dao's younger brother Li Heng and nephew Hu Feng came from both wings to kill!
Li Dao's three-way soldiers and horses turned into a flank attack, dividing and surrounding Lu Bu and Zhang Liao!
Although Lu Bu and Zhang Liao were brave, Li Dao's army was numerous and well prepared. As soon as the two armies clashed, LΓΌ Bu's army was defeated.
If you don't leave, it's hard to get out.
LΓΌ Bu and Zhang Liao had no intention of fighting again, fought hard, broke through the encirclement, and retreated to the north.
It is easy to tie the tiger and difficult to bind the tiger, and Lu Bu cannot be allowed to escape easily.
Li Dao ordered Li Huan Hu Feng to pursue Lu Bu, and he led his troops to the small mound.
On the way back to the east, the former wolf and the second tiger. He was first placed under house arrest by Li Xian, and then abducted by Lu Bu. ran away from Lu Bu, and came to Li Dao again.
The little emperor Liu Xie was exhausted and unable to protect himself, so he could only pray for the mercy of Heaven.
After Fu Wan and the others spoke, they took advantage of the fierce battle between Li and Lu Bu and fled quickly.
Liu Xie looked helpless. "Where else can I escape, I resigned myself to my fate......"
This is the wilderness where wolves are rushing to the wilderness, Li Dao Lu Bu is a beast waiting for an opportunity, and Liu Xie, the son of heaven, is the poor prey......
Frightened again and again, seeing Li Dao leading troops to surround him, Liu Xie lost his previous fear, pushed aside everyone, and came to the front.
"Li Zhiran, why are you so embarrassed?"
Li Dao looked sincerely frightened. "Your Majesty, Li Dao is here to escort King Qin, and he has no dissent!"
"Since you are escorting King Qin, then get out of the way and let me go."
"Your Majesty, how dare Li Dao stop the Holy Driver. It's just that Your Majesty has also seen that there are many bandits here, and the evil thief Lu Bu also has a heart of disobedience. If His Majesty is allowed to leave and encounter thieves and thieves, Li Dao will be a sinner of the Great Han! β
Li Dao behaved loyally and spoke in a high-sounding manner. But everyone knows what he is thinking.
"Li Dao!" Wen Tianxiang wanted to go up to theorize, but Guo Kan grabbed him.
"Dr. Wen, forget it. You have a thousand reasons, and people have all kinds of prevarications. Won't let us go anyway. Don't bother talking. β
I can't leave, and the Son of Heaven is reluctant to return to the city with Li Dao.
Li Wei didn't want to bring this hot potato back, so he sent military supplies, Guo Kan led his troops to camp on the mound, and Li Wei sent people to garrison the mountain.
β¦β¦
Early the next morning. A large group of soldiers and horses is coming from the direction of Weishui!
Li Dao was shocked.
On the mound, Liu Xie, who had been sleepless all night, also saw the team from far and near, and couldn't help sighing: "People are swords, I am fish and meat." β
This allusion comes from Liu Bang's banquet at Hongmen.
Liu Xie touched the scene, although his words were appropriate, but he was full of helplessness.
When Wu Yong heard this, he couldn't help but pity the little emperor. Yes, the fallen Son of Heaven. Like a delicacy in the wilderness, it attracts wild beasts and birds of prey to this gluttonous feast.
β¦β¦
Li Dao did not dare to be careless, and hurriedly organized a team to prepare to meet the enemy.
The team from the south held down their positions under the mound. On the banner of the battle in the formation, the word "Zhang" is big.
Li Dao was so angry that he stepped forward and asked in a loud voice: "Zhang Ji, cross the border to a certain garrison place." Thou hast forgotten thy duty? β
The one who brought in the troops was Zhang Ji, one of Dong Zhuo's four henchmen.
Zhang Ji, a native of Wuwei, Liangzhou. The area of Wuwei is commonly known as the Northland. Zhang Ji's department, mainly in the north, is very strong in combat.
Zhang Ji was ordered to garrison Zheng County on the south bank of Weishui.
Zheng County is the main road from Chang'an to Kanto, and there are frequent personnel exchanges. Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo and the Son of Heaven ran away, and Zhang Ji soon got the news.
As Dong Zhuo's confidant, Dong Zhuo is dead. It is difficult for Zhang Ji to have a good death.
Similar to Li Ji's thoughts, Zhang Ji also has to find a way out for the future.
Unlike Li Ji, Zhang Ji did not have a strategist like Jia Xu by his side, so he could only make judgments based on his own political acumen. He couldn't come up with a clever idea, he just thought about snatching the Son of Heaven and the ministers and controlling the court, which was the most beneficial to himself.
After retributing the Son of Heaven for abandoning the ship and landing in Xiatai County, Zhang Ji immediately led his team across the Weishui River and prepared to hijack the imperial court and the holy driver.
Hearing Li Dao's questioning, Zhang Ji smiled coldly: "It is your duty to hijack the holy driver. I came to escort King Qin, but I didn't keep my duty? β
"Zhang Ji, you don't have to quibble. Leaving the garrison privately, are you not afraid of condemnation? β
"Condemnation? Hahaha......" Zhang Ji laughed, "Who will condemn the crime?" What's more, Zhang's mobilization of troops and horses is to protect the Son of Heaven, what is the crime? β
Li Dao ignored Zhang Ji's quibbles, but from Zhang Ji's words, Li Dao could almost confirm that Dong Zhuo was more than lucky!
"Zhang Ji, you don't want to deceive everyone's hearts, such words can only deceive a three-year-old child. Quickly retreat to Weishui to avoid the scourge of swordsmen! β
Li Dao's confidence is not enough. Li Huan Hu Feng went to chase Lu Bu, and Li Ji's remaining soldiers and horses were far inferior to Zhang Ji.
Li Ji's voice was violent, annoying a fierce general around Zhang Ji.
This general is born extremely powerful, with broad shoulders and back, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a wide nose and a wide mouth, and a slight beard under the chin. The crotch is a big horse, and the tiger head golden gun is in the palm.
Zhang Ji's nephew Zhang Xiu!
Zhang Xiu, known for his courage and outstanding marksmanship, is known as the king of guns in the north.
Hearing Li Dao's words, Zhang Xiu urged him to take a step forward. "Uncle, why bother talking too much, my nephew rushed to kill the past, picked the rebel thief with a gun, and recaptured the Son of Heaven!"
On the other side, Li Ji was not willing to give up the Son of Heaven easily, and he did not dare to confront Zhang Ji.
Jia Xu said: "He is powerful, and he can't compete with it." The captain can talk to him with good words, and when I go north to the headquarters and return, Captain Guo will lead his troops to arrive, and it will not be too late to solve Zhang Ji at that time. β
Li Ji also had this idea, and hurriedly softened his tone, and said to Zhang Ji: "Old Zhang, you and I are both under the account of Master Dong, why bother killing each other." If you have anything to say, isn't it good for the two of us to discuss it privately? β
Although Zhang Ji has an advantage in troops, this is Li Ji's territory, Li Ji's strength is far greater than Zhang Ji's, and Zhang Ji is also quite fearful.
After listening to Li Dao's words, Zhang Ji ignored the opposition of Zhang Xiu and others, retreated from his subordinates, and stepped forward.
Li Dao greeted him. It's nothing more than using some co-opting words, making an appointment to work together to control the Son of Heaven and the imperial court, so as not to fight in the same room, so that the Kwantung princes and fishermen can benefit.
Li Ji's purpose was to stabilize Zhang Ji, but what he said was exactly what Zhang Ji was worried about. Zhang Jicang promoted the army, and he was not well considered. If you can join forces with Li Dao, it will be a good strategy.
After a long secret discussion, Li Ji finally persuaded Zhang Ji.
The two sides camped under the mound, occupying the north, south, east and west, and surrounded the small mounds.
β¦β¦
On the mound, Wen Tianxiang, Guo Kan and others did not expect Zhang Ji to come here to protect King Qin.
Seeing the tension between the two armies, everyone on the mound hoped that Li and Zhang would have a vicious fight, even if there was no chance to get out, it would be very relieving to see the two accomplices of the traitor Dong Zhuo fighting to the death.
Unexpectedly, Li Dao and Zhang Ji secretly discussed, and actually stopped the soldiers, and joined hands in a friendly manner, but Wen Tianxiang and others were in a hurry.
is a single Li Dao, and it is difficult to find a way out. If Zhang Ji joins forces with him, the Son of Heaven will inevitably be held hostage back to Chang'an, and there is no possibility of returning to the east.
You can't just be caught, you have to find a way! (To be continued.) )
