"Oh? Why? Xu Jue really couldn't figure out why Chen Qingzhi wanted to kill Liu Du. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
"Lord," Chen Qingzhi stared at Xu Jue tightly, "This Liu Du is a descendant of the imperial family, I wonder if you have decided to support the Han Emperor and follow the example of the Duke of Zhou?" ”
Xu Jue was stunned by Chen Qingzhi's question, looking at Chen Qingzhi with a serious face, Xu Jue nodded firmly: "That's right!" As long as Emperor Han doesn't have thoughts of power on me, I will keep him! ”
Chen Qingzhi sighed: "Lord, although the Han Emperor is not a force now, in time, when your power grows, it will also be your day of crisis!" ”
"Hehe, General Chen has a point, but ......"
"Huh? What happened to the lord? Chen Qingzhi wondered.
Xu Jue looked at Chen Qingzhi and smiled: "Emperor Han is like a tiger cub now, tame and obedient, and he loves me; Although the tiger will be difficult to control when it grows up, as a tiger tamer, if I am not sure to control it, won't I ruin it? ”
Chen Qingzhi nodded and said reassuringly: "That's fine." Looking at Xu Qi who was smiling but said these words, Chen Qingzhi couldn't help but say: "Lord, you are becoming more and more like a hero!" ”
Xu Jue was stunned for a moment, and smiled bitterly in his heart, he wanted to be a benevolent and righteous prince, but he didn't want to have the same name as Cao Cao, in fact, Xu Jue didn't know that just a few months ago, when he went to meet Xu Da after meeting Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu also commented on him in his heart.
"Haha, Ziyun." Xu Jue smiled and pointed to the flowers and trees on the side of the road, "Look at these bright flowers that are constantly swaying on the side of the road, look at those fluttering leaves, and the flowing clouds in the sky, what else do you see?" Xu Qi changed the topic and suddenly asked for no reason.
"Oh?" Rao is a strategic, resourceful person like Chen Qingzhi, who was also confused by Xu Qi, and was puzzled for a moment, not knowing how to answer.
Xu Qi laughed softly: "The flowers keep swaying, the branches continue to flutter, and the white clouds keep flowing, precisely because of the wind." ”
"......" Chen Qingzhi arched his hand, looking ashamed, "The last general is ignorant and doesn't understand what the lord said." ”
"Hehe, Ziyun, you only see the surface phenomenon of flowers, branches, and white clouds moving, but you ignore that it is the wind, this is just like my belief in supporting the Han Emperor but not wanting to be powered, what does the world think of him, I just need to be myself, at least I will not regret it."
Chen Qingzhi looked at Xu Jue with a calm face, and the sadness unconsciously revealed in his eyes, and said: "What the lord said is like an empowerment, and the end will admire!" ”
"Hehe," Xu Jue looked at Chen Qingzhi, "Ziyun, I really want to support the Han Emperor, but I don't want to be a donkey." ”
"......" Chen Qingzhi was silent for a moment and diverted the topic, "Then the lord is not going to kill Liu Du?" ”
"Well, if you don't kill, it's useless to kill, and staying can help me defend the city." Xu Jue didn't want to dwell on this issue, so he answered Chen Qingzhi's question.
"Yes!" Chen Qingzhi gave up, and he chose to believe Xu Jue in this matter, because Xu Jue is not only his lord, but also a prince who will compete in the Central Plains in the future, Xu Jue should not be confused by his own suggestions, but should have his own opinions.
Two days later, in Lingling City.
"What!" Liu Du jumped up in shock, his slightly wrinkled face was full of disbelief, "Jin Xuan was killed, Zhao Fan surrendered?" This ......"
"Father, now that I have heard it all over the city, it shouldn't be groundless, it's probably true!" A young general replied with his hand arched over his hand, facing Liu Du.
"Hey! If this is true, then I will not be able to escape this disaster! Liu Du looked frightened and panicked, and sighed.
"Lord!" The two generals next to him came out at the same time, "Lord, I just don't know that Jin Xuan fought with people and ended up dying, you must know that Xing Daorong under his command is invincible!" ”
Liu Du became even more panicked when he heard this, and frowned in his crying voice: "Hey! He has a fierce general like Xing Daorong who can't escape death, what way do we have to live! Ahhh ”
After saying that, he turned straight like a headless fly, pacing back and forth, as if he could use it to dispel the panic.
But a wave of unevenness rose again and again, "Report! ”
Suddenly, a junior colonel rushed over, as if the situation was urgent: "Lord, a large number of soldiers and horses have been found fifty miles outside the city, riding under the word 'Chen', and it is estimated that there are more than 25,000 people, and they are marching towards my Lingling!" ”
Xu Jue's army was originally 14,000, but Zhao Fan's 5,000 soldiers and horses have been under Xu Jue's control since Chen Ying Baolong's death, as well as the 3,000 men and horses brought out from Wuling, totaling about 22,000 people.
"It's over, it's over!" Liu Du was full of despair, "No, I have to leave quickly, staying here will not escape death, Liu Xian and my son, come with me!" After saying that, he pulled Liu Xian in a panic and prepared to leave.
Liu Xian shook off his father's hand and shouted in a low voice: "Father! Liu Du was stunned for a moment, saw that his son's face was not shocked, and wondered: "Why didn't my son panic?" The two counties of Wuling and Guiyang have changed at the same time, which shows that this surnamed Chen is quite capable, Lingling is just a small land, and there are only thousands of soldiers and horses in the city, how can he match it?
"Don't be surprised!" Seeing that he was finally able to interject, one of the generals said, "Lord! Although the last general said that the martial arts are not worthy of Xing Daorong, but he also boasts that he can still enter the stream, the last general is willing to come to the general, if he wins, then he will be blessed by the lord, if he loses, the last general can also retreat! ”
"Oh?" Liu Du turned his head, looked at this person, and said with a bitter face: "General Yang Ling, I know that you are brave and heartfelt, but the enemy army is strong, even if you can win, what can you do?" ”
Yang Ling was silent, speechless for a while, and the general next to him said sharply: "Lord, and I Pan Long!" The last general will defend this city to the death! ”
Liu Du shook his head: "Hey! General Pan. He sighed again and looked at everyone, "You also know that I don't want to be promoted and make a fortune, but now that I am over the age of 20, I just want to spend the rest of my life in this city." ”
When Pan Long heard this, he immediately surrendered his hand: "Lord, the last general Pan Long is grateful to you, and I am willing to lead a group of soldiers and horses to resist the comers!" ”
At this time, Liu Xian and Yang Ling bowed their hands together: "The last general is willing to defend the city to the death!" ”
When Liu Du heard this, his panicked heart improved, and he settled down, and saw that the three generals all regarded death as home: "Then there is a lot of work for you, go!" Come with me to meet the enemy! ”
When it comes to this, Liu Du can only let it go, for him, this moment is already the point of death and death.
Standing on the city wall, Liu Du covered his hands and looked out, only to see a neat queue of soldiers and horses, with bright armor, hunting with flags, majestic, and his heart was half cold: "No, no, no, no!" This army is so well organized, our army will be defeated! ”
Liu Du smiled bitterly: "Why did my father let others be angry and destroy his prestige?" It's not long or short, and it's not yet known! ”
"That's right! What the young boy said is true! Pan Long and Yang Ling agreed.
"Look." Liu Du pointed to the army stationed under the city, "This seems to be a Confucian student, thin and weak, with a white face and short beard, this person is difficult to have courage, I am afraid that he is full of scheming!" ”
"Don't be surprised, this person has a strategy, and we may not be able to get it!"
Liu Du looked at the two who were satisfied: "Pan Long and Yang Ling, two generals, do you think this battle is feasible?" ”
"My lord, the last general is willing to take the lead!" The two gave up.
Liu Du was relieved and stroked the shoulders of the two, "Then the two of you will lead a team of soldiers and horses to meet the enemy, if you can't win, try to retreat!" ”
"Yes!"
The two of them gave up their orders and retreated to prepare for the army, Liu Xian suddenly said: "Father, I don't think this army seems to be a villain, a rampant rioter, maybe we can negotiate with it." ”
is really a person who wakes up in a dream, Liu Du smiled, as if he saw hope: "Okay, good!" Two generals, wait!
