Chapter 284: Jiangnan Chapter (2) Jingzhou Chapter 3

Chapter 284 tried the enemy's situation Zhang Yu went into battle, and Zhao Fan, who was a lobbyist, appeared

In the above book, it is mentioned that Liu Cong and Cai Mao came to see Liu Biao together.

Liu Biao's words had a lot of educational meanings, and finally asked Liu Cong to follow Cai Mao to send troops to Cangwu.

Let's come back and talk about Liu Qi's side.

It is said that Liu Qi led an army of 40,000 and went straight to Jiuzhen.

It is no coincidence that no book is written.

When they arrived in Jiuzhen, Zhang Jin and Zhang Yu had already lived in Jiuzhen City under Shizhen's arrangement. These two people are hardcore supporters of Shiyi, and they are people who are determined to support Shiyi to be the king and hegemon!

In this way, it will be a little difficult for Liu Qi to convince Shizhen this time. What's more, they didn't know that these two were in the city?

They traveled day and night, and this day they finally came to the outside of Jiuzhen City.

"General Qiyu, there is Jiuzhen City ahead!" The horse ran over to report.

Looking up at the city not far away, Liu Qi asked Xiang Wenpin: "Zhongye, our army has traveled all the way, and the soldiers are tired, why don't you set up camp here?" ”

"It's good!" Wen Ping replied.

Liu Qi then ordered: "Immediately arrange for the soldiers to press the camp." ”

And at this time, in the Nine True City.

Shizhen also got the letter and hurriedly convened his generals to discuss.

After a while, the generals arrived.

Shi Zhen asked: "Jingzhou's 40,000 soldiers and horses have come to the city under the command of Liu Qi, the eldest son of Liu Biao, do you have any countermeasures?" ”

Juncheng is a side of the Shi family, and a brother of Shi Zhen said: "The lord insisted on going his own way at the beginning, and today he really caused trouble." Not to mention the entry of the soldiers and horses of Eastern Wu, but the soldiers and horses of Jingzhou in front of us are not something we can compete with! It seems that today's son is really going to die in my family! ”

A group of officials next to him were also discussing.

The Zhang brothers are not here.

However, they came uninvited.

While everyone was talking in a mess, their voices came from outside the hall: "Why should you be alarmed? With my two brothers here, I will be able to keep this city safe! ”

When everyone looked at it, the person who said it was Zhang Yu.

Seeing the two of them, Shizhen secretly said: With these two people, this battle has to be fought!

What he thought in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and said with a look of relief that seemed to be relieved: "I can get the help of the two generals, I am naturally relieved!" ”

Zhang Yu patted his chest and said, "With our brothers, don't worry." If it's Soochow, we have to think about it, and we don't have to take Jingzhou to heart! ”

The county governor's surname is Li, not from several major families, he was brought by Shizhen, and it is said that he once saved Shizhen's life. He saw that the brothers of the Zhang family had suffered a defeat and came over, and he seemed to be very embarrassed by his master's family, so he deliberately stepped forward and asked: "Now that the enemy is pressing, I don't know how the two generals plan to retreat?" ”

"What's so hard about that? Take my brother to fight for a while, find out the reality of the enemy, and then talk about it! "Where does Changyu have a trace of the appearance that he has just suffered defeat, like a rooster who has just won a fight.

Shizhen Chengfu was very deep, his face was calm and steady, and he said with a cautious look: "It's okay, there are still 500 cavalry under the command of the two generals. Lieutenant Li, you're allocating 1,000 infantry to two generals! ”

"No!" Lieutenant Li agreed, turned back to the two and said, "The two generals come with me." ”

The two said goodbye to Shizhen and went with Captain Li to pick up the troops.

After a short time, the two men came out of the city with 500 cavalry and 1,000 infantry.

Although Lieutenant Li had some opinions about the two, he did not do anything about the transfer of soldiers, but they were all strong men.

Zhang Yu and Zhang Jin didn't say a word, they each carried their weapons and went straight to Liu Qi's camp.

"Report!"

In the big tent of the Chinese army that had just been cleaned up, Liu Qi was discussing the military with the civil and military.

He commanded more than ten people. The generals include Wen Ping, Huang Zu, Pang Ji, Deng Xi, Su Fei, Liu Pan and Zhang Duo, the son of the strategist Zhang Xian, as well as the generals Li Qi and Li Yan who were temporarily transferred by Liu Biao; The strategist is engaged in Yang Ling, the chief bookkeeper Yin Ji, and the clerk Zhang Xian.

"General Qiyu, more than 1,000 soldiers and horses have rushed out of the enemy city and have come to the front of the camp to fight!" Soldier reports.

"Looks like someone in the city can't hold their breath!" Liu Qi is no longer the child who used to look for backers everywhere, and he can be regarded as a battle-hardened veteran, so he smiled and asked Tanma to go out first, and then said, "With what we know, Shizhen shouldn't be so unbreathable!" Don't worry about these for now, you can follow me to the front of the battle and argue about it! ”

"No!" And they answered the cry and came with him outside the camp.

Raising 2,000 elite soldiers, Liu Qi personally led everyone to the outside of the camp.

Zhang Yu, who was outside the camp, saw the enemy soldiers and horses coming out, and said to Zhang Jin: "You are here to press the formation, and I will take the lead!" ”

"Good! Brother, be careful! ”

"It's okay!" After finishing speaking, Zhang Yu came to the front of the two armies and waited for Liu Qi.

Liu Qi's soldiers and horses came slowly.

Seeing from afar that one of the other party's generals was already waiting in the formation, Liu Qi said to Wen Ping, Li Yan and others beside him: "The knife is across the saddle bridge, looking sideways, it seems that this person is very confident in himself!" If you are not a person with special skills, you are a person with a high heart! If it's a match, you need to be careful! ”

"Childe mentioned it!" Wen Ping and others responded.

Seeing that Liu Qi judged these just by looking at the other party's posture in the formation, Li Yan began to have a new opinion on this eldest son who was once unfamiliar, so he said: "Yan has the heart to grab this work, I don't know if the eldest son is willing to give this opportunity?" ”

"Ou! The general is willing to fight for a certain person, Qi is very grateful, how can he not be unwilling?! However, the generals should be careful in the battle! Seeing Li Yan asking for battle, Liu Qi was very happy.

This Li Yan is not simple, this person is a famous minister in the post-Three Kingdoms period. It is recorded in the history of the Three Kingdoms:

Li Yan (?-234), later renamed Li Ping, the word Zhengfang, was a native of Nanyang (now Nanyang, Henan). During the Three Kingdoms period, he was a heavy minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, and Zhuge Liang was the minister of Liu Bei before his death. In 231 AD, during the Northern Expedition of the Shu Army, Li Yan escorted the grain and grass because of the rain and the muddy roads were delayed, and in order to shirk the responsibility, he blamed Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition, so that Zhuge Liang had to withdraw from the army, so he was convicted, and was finally deposed as a civilian and migrated to Zitong County (now Zitong, Sichuan). In 234 AD, Zhuge Liang died of illness, and after Li Yan learned the news, he thought that no one would be able to use him in the future, so he died of anger in anger.

His martial arts are strong, and compared to Liu Qi's command, only Wen Ping can compete with him.

Let's see him come to Zhang Yu on horseback, point his gun at him, and shout: "Bold and rebellious, I am Li Yan, a general under the command of King Jiangling, and you will die if you don't report your name!?" ”

"Humph! You have raised troops for no reason, have you asked me about the long knife in my hand? Ask me my name, and listen to me. Grandpa will not change his name, he will not change his surname, and Zhang Yu, the heir of the Zhang family in Jiaozhou, is also! After Zhang Yu finished speaking, he took Li Yan directly.

The two horses pedaled by mistake, and the swords and guns were combined, and the two fought together.

Not to mention, Zhang Yu and Li Yan actually had a difficult fight, on par.

In a blink of an eye, more than 100 times have passed, and there is still no decomposition.

Liu Qi saw that the two were still anxious, considering that Li Yan was tired from running around with him, but he was afraid that he would not be able to do it, so he discussed with Wen Ping and Li Qi: "General Li fought with that fight for more than 100 rounds, and there is no decomposition!" The march is tiring all the way, so it is better to withdraw the troops and fight again in the future! ”

The two had the same idea.

Liu Qi saw that the two agreed, so he asked people to mingle gold.

The sound of gold sounded, Li Yan stabbed two shots, forced Zhang Yu away, and said: "Ming Jin in my camp, I don't know what's going on?!" Wait for someone to go back and see, and fight again tomorrow! ”

"That's it!" Zhang Yu was a neat one, turned his horse and knife back to his own position, and returned to the city with his soldiers.

Back in the camp, Yang Ling said to Liu Qi: "Zhang Yu in Zhang Valve, I heard that this person is a resolute supporter of Shiyi!" With this person here, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult to convince Shi Zhen! ”

Liu Qi nodded and said thoughtfully: "Yes!" But if you don't go into the tiger's den, you can get a tiger? I went into the city and met Shizhen in person. I hope that with such sincerity can impress Shizhen! ”

"But it's too dangerous!" Yin Ji and Zhang Xian hurriedly dissuaded.

Wen Ping also stopped and said: "If there is no Brother Changyu, it doesn't hurt for the son to go!" It's just that the Changyu brothers are in the city, but Gongzi has taken a lot of adventures when he goes! ”

"The matter of taking the city is urgent, we must not wait for Zhou Yu to capture Jiaozhi!" Liu Qi frowned and said.

The partial general Pang Ji suddenly said: "There is a way for the general, maybe you can try it!" ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked over.

But I heard Pang Ji say: "Jiuzhen has already sealed the city, we have to wait for the people inside to do this!" In the second half of the night, our men were on duty in the northern city. Childe still sent a skilled soldier in to consult with them! ”

It turned out that Liu Qi had already arranged manpower in the city, led by Zhao Fan, who was engaged in Zhonglang.

Listen, everyone, he is engaged in Langzhong, not Zhonglang. The so-called engaged in Langzhong is actually an assistant engaged in the county government.

However, even if he is engaged, it is only under Changshi and Sima in the county government.

Therefore, at this time, Zhao Fan can definitely represent Liu Qi.

Liu Qi thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "It seems that this is the only way!" I'll write a letter here, and I'll send it to Zhao Cheng immediately!! ”

After a while, the letter was written, and he handed it to Pang Ji.

That night, the letter was delivered to the city.

After reading the letter, Zhao Fan asked people to prepare gifts and went straight to Shizhen's mansion.

When he came to Shizhen's mansion, he handed over a prayer post, and the man who guarded the door passed it to him.

Soon, someone invited him in.

Shi Zhen was waiting for him in the backyard, with his back in the direction he came, and when he heard his footsteps, he suddenly said, "Mr. is really bold!" ”

"For the sake of the bloodline of the adults and the Shi family, I am too timid to do it!" Zhao Fan is very courageous and eloquent.

Hearing this, Shi Zhen stood up, turned his head, motioned for his subordinates to retreat, and then invited Zhao Fan to take a seat, and then asked: "My Shi family is disobedient to the Son of Heaven, is there any salvation?" ”

Zhao Fan laughed and said, "Don't say that you are just accomplices to the side branches, I'm afraid that the real main offender will have to rely on Your Majesty to save it at that time!" ”

"What do you mean by that?" Shi Zhen asked puzzled.

If you want to know what will happen next, and listen to the next explanation......
