Chapter 430: Zhang Fei, who is jealous and hateful
After Zhang Da listened to Zhang Fei's order, he suddenly felt embarrassed, because it was almost noon, and he wanted to have lunch in the city, which meant that he had to capture Gongxian within the kung fu of tea.
Although there are only 3,000 defenders in Gongxian County, it is also considered to be a high and deep city, and they are just marching here as a vanguard army, the army is lightly armed and simple, and there are no siege equipment at all, and even crossbow arrows are extremely rare, it is too difficult to capture Gongxian County.
Zhang Fei smiled, and then asked Zhang Da to come over, and after explaining like this, he let him act according to the plan.
"It's so easy to capture Gong County?" Zhang Da couldn't help but be suspicious after hearing this, but when he saw Zhang Fei's disobedient gaze, he could only accept the order helplessly.
Just a moment later, Zhang Da ordered his soldiers to besiege Gongxian with twice as many banners, and ordered the soldiers to drag the branches with war horses in the distance, making it look like the army was coming, and then shouted under the city: "Listen to the city guards, my general is the general of Anxi, Xixiang Marquis Zhang Fei Zhang Yide, on the order of the King of Chu, led an army of 100,000 to Gong County, Cao Cao saw that our army was strong, and had already left Luoyang and fled back to Lao Chaoye County, and now the land of Henan is just a lonely city, If you know each other, you may be able to save the lives of the soldiers and civilians in the city, if you dare to resist stubbornly, once the city is broken, you and others will all be turned into powder. ”
The defenders at the head of the city suddenly saw that the city was surrounded by three turns inside and three turns outside, and they rushed to panic in an instant, not knowing what to do.
Because there has been no war since it was occupied by Cao Cao fifteen years ago, the garrison training in the city has been lax, and despite the mountains of equipment to defend the city, the sergeants no longer know how to use it, plus they heard the news from Zhang Da. It's already been a lot of discussions, and there is no fighting spirit.
"What? The king of Wei abandoned Luoyang and has taken the Son of Heaven hostage and moved to Yecheng? Is this, is this true or false? ”
"This time, the commander of the army will be Zhang Fei? It's over now, I heard that Zhang Fei is even braver than Guan Yu, who shocked Xuchang back then, and this Zhang Fei is brutal and easy to kill. Even his own soldiers are often whipped, and if we resist, where will we benefit when he takes the city? It is estimated that it would be fortunate not to come to the slaughter of the city to vent his anger. ”
"The city, there are so many soldiers and horses under the city, it looks like there are no less than 100,000, the forest in the distance is dusty, and it seems that a large number of people and horses are coming, such a small city in Gongxian. How can it withstand the onslaught of tens of thousands of troops? ”
The soldiers at the head of the city looked at the black and oppressive people and horses under the city, the neat military appearance, all of them were terrified, Gong Ling Cao Wei was a literati, he didn't understand military affairs at all, and naturally he was even more frightened, and he didn't think much about it, so he ordered the city to surrender.
Cao Wei's decision is not without objection. The county Cheng Li Ju thought that the shape was unclear now, and he should not immediately open the city and surrender. At the same time, he immediately sent people to Luoyang to inquire about the news, and then to Chenggao and other places to ask for help, and said in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner: "We have received the grace of the King of Wei and have been entrusted with important tasks. Now that the soldiers are coming to the city, the only way to be loyal is to kill themselves and become benevolent, how can there be a reason to surrender on the knee? ”
It's a pity that Li Ju's words did not have any impact in the hearts of those generals who were greedy for life and afraid of death, but caused the dissatisfaction of the county lieutenant Sun Wei, who and the county commander Cao Wei were sons and daughters. I have long worn a pair of pants, and I am a wolf on weekdays, trying to squeeze out the upright Li Ju, and today I saw that Li Ju was going to cut off their way of life, how could I not be anxious? Therefore, Sun Wei immediately drew his sword in his hand and shouted: "After waiting for you to find out the news and reinforcements arrive slowly, we have already become the ghosts of the enemy army under the city." When the interruption continues, it will be chaotic, and the county lord must not listen to Li Ju's words, otherwise, the army and people of Hecheng are afraid that they will be understood by a word, and the lives will be ruined, and the people will be plunged into the suffering of war and chaos. ”
As soon as Li Ju heard this, his hair immediately stood on end, and he glared at his eyes and scolded: "Traitor, the good world will be buried in the hands of traitors like you." ”
Sun Wei himself had a conflict with Li Ju, and when he saw the other party like this today, he suddenly became angry in his heart, and he pulled out his saber and cut off one of Li Ju's arms.
Li Ju saw that Sun Wei had a murderous intention, and he did not have the slightest fear in his heart, but scolded even more, and was finally stabbed into the lower abdomen by Sun Wei, gouging out his heart, and suddenly became angry.
After Sun Wei killed Li Ju, he glanced coldly at the generals at the head of the city, and said: "Now that the king of Chu is righteous, people with lofty ideals in the world follow him everywhere, like a thief like Li Ju, like a mantis arm as a car, he can't measure his strength, who wants to follow him again?" ”
All the generals and officials were silent, and no one dared to say a word.
Seeing that the generals no longer objected, Cao Wei glanced at his in-laws with satisfaction, and immediately ordered the sergeants to open the city and surrender. When they brought Zhang Fei's army camp into the city, they heard that they had not yet eaten lunch, so they immediately ordered the slaughter of pigs and sheep to reward the army.
And Zhang Da was still like a dream at this time, he really didn't expect that this battle would be fought like this, but he made a lot of intimidation, and forced the enemy army to surrender without a fight, and easily took down Gongxian City.
"No wonder the King of Chu is so eager to get our general, it turns out that our general does have two strokes, and he actually used such a trick, alas, pity me for following him for so many years, and I haven't understood it clearly yet." At the banquet, Zhang Da was enjoying the wine of pigs and sheep, and looked at Zhang Fei silently. His expression became more and more admired and reverent, and for Liu Qi, he had already bowed and worshiped like a god.
At this moment, Zhang Da suddenly found that many of the officials present looked a little uncomfortable, and couldn't help but be vigilant, and then took the time to quietly tell Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei thought about it for a while, then asked Zhang Da to write down the names of several of the officials, and after the banquet was over, he quietly invited those officials to his tent.
After the banquet was over, he was waiting for Zhang Da in the camp tent to invite those officials, and after some careful inquiry, those officials finally wanted Zhang Fei to explain the reason, and told Zhang Fei that Cao Wei and Sun Yun were colluding with each other, and the various illegal acts of the people were told together, and advised Zhang Fei to kill the two to calm the anger of the public, otherwise it would definitely lead the army and the people to centrifuge, and once Zhang Fei left, These two moths will inevitably continue to plague the village.
Zhang Fei listened to the words of these officials, and sent people to investigate, only to learn that what these officials said was the truth, but he was between the two of them surrendering the city, and he had no merit and could not be killed as soon as he came up, so after discussing with the military advisor Ma Yan, he decided to lower the positions of the two first to watch their reactions.
Zhang Fei said that he would do it, and immediately ordered Cao Wei to be appointed as the chief secretary of Gong County, and Sun Wei only got a small position as a secretary.
Cao Wei and Sun Wei originally thought that they would be awarded their original positions as a regular if they had contributed to the city, and they might even be promoted and rewarded, but they didn't expect to be demoted, and their hearts were suddenly filled with Yan Zhan's dissatisfaction.
After a little discussion, the two decided to contact the old troops in the army who had surrendered, sneaked into Zhang Fei's camp tent at night, stabbed Zhang Fei to death, and then burned the camp, creating chaos, and took the opportunity to flee to Yecheng.
Although they lost Gongxian, they assassinated Zhang Fei, a general under Liu Qi, presumably this time not only without fault, but also with merit.
But where did they think of it? This was originally Zhang Fei's strategy, forcing them to rebel, that night, when the two of them and the contacted soldiers touched into Zhang Fei's camp, suddenly saw Zhang Fei tumbling down from the couch, a pair of eyes like an eagle staring at the prey, tyrannical and fierce, and then, only to hear an order, I saw groups of soldiers gathered here, even those who had promised to cooperate with Cao Wei and Sun Wei and the two thieves, they also quickly defected, The pair of in-laws and their henchmen were all surrounded.
It was only at this time that Cao Wei and Sun Wei knew that this was actually a trap laid by Zhang Fei, and they couldn't help but ask in a deep voice: "We have dedicated the city and have the merit of righteousness, why did we get such unfair treatment?" ”
Zhang Fei looked at the two of them and said sharply: "Don't you two fish and meat people, don't you know about the things in the township?" Officials with such bad deeds as you and others will remember the merit of dedicating the city, and it is cheap enough not to kill you, and you have also rewarded you with official positions, you don't know how to cherish them, and you dare to rebel, and if you don't kill you today, it is really difficult to be worthy of the conscience of the general. ”
After finishing speaking, he ordered the sergeant to dodge, and said with a smile: "Give you a chance today, the two of you can go together, and if you can hold out for three rounds under the general, you will let you wait for a way out." ”
Cao Wei and Sun Wei saw the soldiers gathered around them, and they thought they would die, but when they suddenly heard Zhang Fei say this, they felt that there was still a glimmer of life, and they couldn't help but be ecstatic.
Of course, because Cao Wei is only a scholar and does not know martial arts, but he has confidence in his in-laws Sun Wei, because his in-laws, as the county lieutenant of this county, are themselves a relatively skilled general in martial arts, although it is impossible to beat the famous general Zhang Fei of Megatron, but it should be no problem to walk three rounds under him.
"In-laws, so-and-so's life will be in your hands." Cao Wei looked at Sun Wei with a solemn face and said.
Sun Wei smiled faintly and said: "The in-laws are polite, this battle is not only for you, but also for me, please rest assured that although it is impossible to defeat Zhang Fei, it is still no problem to hold on to three rounds under him." ”
After finishing speaking, Sun Wei suddenly pulled out his saber, and flirted at Zhang Fei's lower yin, shouting to himself: "One round has passed, there are still two rounds, and then look at my second round, hehe, General Zhang, take it." (To be continued......)
