Chapter 68: Cai Mao (Second Update)
Therefore, Chen Sheng was anxious to go back to Wancheng and attack Jiang Guang. Therefore, the next day, the team set off before dawn, accelerated its speed, and headed north.
Passing by Anzhong on the way, Chen Sheng sent troops in to arrest Fang Gan, but the result was that Fang Gan had already left.
Helpless, Chen Sheng had to return to Wancheng.
After returning to Wancheng, Chen Sheng first entered the camp outside the city, awarded Wei Yan and Liao Hua soldiers, and included two or three hundred soldiers in the army.
The number of soldiers was increased to 2,500.
After that, Chen Sheng entered Wancheng non-stop, and went straight to General Jianzhong's mansion.
When Chen Sheng came, Zhang Xiu was practicing.
In the school field, Zhang Xiu held a long sword, dancing very violently, the sword light flickered, and the cold air was pressing.
Chen Sheng was amazed when he saw it, he deserved to be a famous general in the northwest, even if he was so good at swordsmanship. When Zhang Xiu saw Chen Sheng coming, he took back his sword and handed it to an attendant next to him.
"Ziwei, you went south to ask for a lance, but it was done?" Zhang Xiu asked with a smile.
"It's done, not only asked for a good lance. Instead, nothing was spent. Chen Sheng said with a smile.
"It's amazing." Zhang Xiu was surprised when he heard this.
Chen Sheng then told the stubbornness of the roll.
"I see, that party has a heart, and the treasure lance is a hero." Zhang Xiu was stunned, and said with respect.
"In fact, on this trip, seeking the treasure lance is still second. The most important thing is that I have clashed with the two forces. Chen Sheng said.
"What's going on?" Zhang Xiu frowned when she heard this, and said solemnly.
So, Chen Sheng told Cai Fang, Fang Gan and others about the attack on him with troops.
Zhang Xiu was furious when she heard this, and her eyebrows were murderous.
"Then Cai Fang was really ignorant, and he actually intercepted and killed my brother." Zhang Xiu said angrily. Immediately, Zhang Xiu turned his head to Chen Sheng and said: "Ziwei rest assured, although I, Zhang Xiu, am subject to Liu Biao, Liu Biao also has to rely on me Zhang Xiu to guard Nanyang and Jingzhou." He's not going to be good. Then Cai Fang will kill it. However, Cai Mao is a sinister person, and he may make a sinister move. You have to be careful. β
"Don't worry, brother, I'll be on guard." Chen Sheng saw that Zhang Xiu was maintained, and he was moved in his heart and said.
"As for Jiang Guang." Speaking of this, Zhang Xiu's face flashed with coldness.
"This guy, I think he's a piece of chicken. Attack, maybe you will lose your troops. If you don't attack, it will be an eyesore. So I never made up my mind. This time, he instead embezzled Wancheng and murdered Ziwei you. When I really get tired of life, I should personally lead the army and take his head. β
Zhang Xiu was murderous.
"Brother and slow." Chen Sheng was taken aback when he saw this, and said.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Xiu was puzzled.
"The so-called killing chickens uses a knife to attack Jiang Guang, and there is no need for my brother to go out. I should take the younger brother, and take his men and settle them in Guangcheng. Form a rivalry with your brother.γ And brother, it's better to guard Wancheng. After all, there are not a few forces around. If the elder brother sends troops and is taken advantage of by others and loses Wancheng, it will be more than worth the loss. β
Chen Sheng explained.
This is the truth, there are too many forces on the four sides, even Liu Biao may not be a reliable ally. Once Zhang embroidered out of Wancheng, it would be a disaster.
"Take Guangcheng and form a corner trend, not bad." After Zhang Xiu listened to Chen Sheng's words, her eyes lit up and she nodded again and again. Immediately, he also hesitated: "It's just that Jiang Guangbu has a wide range of people, and he is a yellow turban general, so he has some ability." Ziwei, you only have two or three thousand soldiers, but you can be an enemy? β
"To deal with the rest of the Yellow Turbans like this, the elite soldiers of Xiliang can be ten with one. Besides, as I said earlier, I received a surrender and obtained some information. It is not difficult to take Guangcheng. β
Chen Sheng smiled confidently.
"Good. Ziwei, you are ten times more intelligent than me, and you are careful. That Jiang Guangdang is a dry bone in the mound. When you want to send troops, you can send troops when you want, and you don't have to worry about food. Zhang Xiu saw Chen Sheng's confidence, and remembered Chen Sheng's intelligence, he was also very confident, and said with a smile.
"Thank you, brother."
Chen Sheng thanked him.
"You and my brother, thank you for what." Zhang Xiu blamed. Immediately, he took Chen Sheng's hand again and said, "You and my brother, I haven't seen you for a long time." Let's go, let's go and have a drink. β
"Okay."
Chen Sheng said with a smile and followed.
Sending troops to the northwest was decided.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
In the south, on a trail near Xiangyang. There was a group of people, talking, and there was a large cart next to it, and a coffin was on it.
"We are on the orders of Master Cai to protect the son. Now that the son is dead, we are safe. If you go back like this, I'm afraid you will be killed by Cai Junshi. β
"yes, just go back like this, I'm afraid it's going to be bad."
"But can we not go back? You must know that my parents and relatives are all slaves of Cai Junshi's subordinates. If you don't go back, I'm afraid you'll endanger your family. β
This group of people is the family guards who guard Cai Fang. After they arrived in Xiangyang, they were afraid of being punished and did not dare to enter the city.
But after discussing it for a while, it was necessary to enter the city.
"Let's go, it's over with a knife." Eventually, one of the group spoke.
Immediately, more than ten people surrounded the coffin and entered the city. Soon after, they arrived outside Cai's house.
Cai Maogui is the military advisor of Liu Biao, the general of Zhennan, a protΓ©gΓ© and a former official, all over the world, and has a pivotal position in Jingzhou. The mansion he lives in is also surprisingly large.
The front of the door is made of marble, and the two large doors are red throughout. Zhu Men is extravagant.
On both sides, there was a row of domestic guards, majestic.
The guards in this row recognized the dozen or so guards beside Cai Fang, and were taken aback when they saw this. Immediately, a guard stepped forward to ask each other, and after getting the situation.
His face was pale, almost crawling, and he walked inside.
The guard's heart was even more shocked.
Although the second son is the second, he is the most popular with the military advisor. Soon after, it was the birthday of the military advisor. At this juncture, the Bone-Eyed Army Division was actually killed, this, this, this.
The thought of this terrible consequence made the guards almost frightened.
Soon after, the guards came to the study. Here, the guard took a few deep breaths and adjusted his mentality, before he bent over and saluted: "Strategist, the little one has a message delivered." β
"Come in." In the study, a gentle voice came out.
"No."
The guard said yes and walked in.
In the study, there are bookcases on both sides, and there are many bamboo slips. Among them, there is a case, and at this moment, a person is sitting upright behind the case, reading a book.
This person is more than eight feet long, dignified in appearance, elegant in posture, and has the atmosphere of a literati doctor.
It is the No. 1 minister in Jingzhou, Cai Mao, and Cai Junshi is also.
"What?" Cai Mao opened her mouth to ask, her voice was not slow, but it was still so elegant.
