Let's say that Liu Biao's whole army went to fight the king, and left Wenpin to guard Dazhai. Wen was hired to inspect the camp defense, and also inspected the heavy grain and grass. Wen Ping rested in his tent, and sent a scout horse to the front of the army to inquire about the war.

Wen Ping was reading the history of the scriptures in the tent, and it was just before noon, and the horse was reported that the army was in chaos and that the defeated army was about to return to the camp. Wen Ping was shocked, and hurriedly ordered the sergeants to prepare, and they all went to the wall.

After a short time, Wen Ping saw that the smoke and dust had come up, and the defeated army had arrived. The Wenpin Fear Army rushed to the gate of the village, and the southern army took advantage of the situation to enter, and the sergeants on the wall shouted in unison: "The army is walking around the village, and its own defenders are resisting the southern army." "The defeated army outside the village heard the shouting, some went around the village, and some went straight to the gate of the village. Wen hired the sergeant to release arrows and shoot several defeated soldiers in succession to stop the momentum.

The southern army chased after him, and he wanted to take advantage of the chaos to seize the northern army's Dazhai, but he was shot back by Wen Ping's random arrows. The Southern Army was convenient for being out of range and lined up for the rear army.

said that Liu Biao and Kuai Yue ran back to Dazhai under the escort of Liu Pan and Huang Zhong. Suddenly, I heard someone humane: "It's not good, it's against Wen Zhongye, hold Dazhai and prevent the defeated army from entering." Liu Biao was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly asked Kuai Yuedao: "Wen Ping is the opposite, the big camp has been lost, how can I wait?" Kuai Yue replied: "Don't believe the message, General Wen is from the Nanyang clan, and he has the virtue of guarding righteousness in times of danger." Liu Biao asked again: "Then how did he not let the defeated army enter the village?" Kuai Yue said: "I think General Zhongye was afraid that the rebel army would rush into the camp and be taken advantage of by the southern army, so he did not let the rebel army enter through the gate." The lord and I can go to the remote village and enter the camp. Liu Biao nodded yes, and then agreed to Kuaiyue's meaning.

Liu Biao went to the remote village, and the sergeant Guo welcomed Liu Biao in. Wen Ping asked Liu Biao to return, and he was busy coming to visit, Liu Biao asked about the past, and Wen Ping answered them one by one, and the result was not bad as Kuai Yue expected.

The southern army outside the wall, gathered a large army, and came to attack Liu Biao Dazhai again, Liu Biao ordered Wen to hire the defeated army to meet the southern army. The two sides fought a scuffle, until it was dark, and Wang Hao was afraid that he would lose the night battle, so he ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops. Retreat a few miles to the village.

Liu Biao saw that the southern army was retreating, so he came to inspect the losses. A total of nearly 20,000 sergeants were killed, and Wang Wei and Huang Zu were captured in the battle, Huang Zu's general Chen Sheng was beheaded, Huang Zhong was injured, and Kuailiang was lost in the chaotic army, and suffered heavy losses. Liu Biao couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, and said: "Now, our army has lost several generals, how can this be good?" On the side, Kuai Yue said: "The lord must not lament, he should regroup and wait for another battle." Liu Biao sighed: "I also have this heart, but I don't have this strength, the southern army will be brave and brave, and I will see it today." Kuai Yue said: "The southern army is brave and invincible, but it can be outwitted. ”

Liu Biao hurriedly asked, "What is the best strategy for the beginning of the different degrees?" Kuai Yue replied: "The southern army won a big victory today, and captured several generals of our army in a row, so they must think that our army is frightened, dare not fight again, and stick to the camp." The southern army is victorious, and our army will not come back, so our defense will definitely be relaxed, and our army can go to the camp at night. The Yugoslav army was certainly unprepared. Liu Biao stroked his palms and praised Lian Lian, and ordered Liu Pan and Wen Ping to lead 5,000 soldiers, horses and sons to go up and down to Wang Hao's camp to sneak attack.

And said that Wang Hao returned to the camp victorious, and the soldiers were all happy, Zhu Wu came to see Wang Hao and said: "The great victory of the lord is in front of him, but the lord beware of defeat before victory." Wang said curiously: "What does Wen Lie mean by this, Liu Biao's main force is still afraid that it is too early to win." Zhu Wudao: "Although Liu Biao's main force is here, he has lost several generals, and even his wife and brother Cai Mao and others have been captured by the master, and the military spirit has been lost." With Nanyang Yuan Shu behind, Jiangdong Sun Jian on the side, if Liu Biao wins, the two will not move lightly, and if they lose, they will do the fisherman's thing. Wang Hao said: "Since this is the case, it is better for me to repair a book and connect with Yuan Shu and Sun Jian, and connect with the two to take Jingzhou together." Zhu Wu hurriedly said: "The lord can't, first, the lord will take Jingzhou as a state minister, it will be unfortunate; Second, although Liu Biao was defeated, the main force was still there, and if our army wanted to win, it would not be easy, so he ordered Yuan Shu and Sun Jian to take advantage. And although Yuan Shu is famous, he is arrogant by nature, brave and unbreaking, and his nature is greedy; Although Sun Jian is known as a loyal martyr, his people took advantage of the military power for a while, harmed Uncle Fang, his neighbors, and secretly hid the jade seal, how could it be done by the ministers. It is because Yuan Shu is like a wolf, Sun Jian is like a tiger, and conspires with tigers and wolves, and the wise do not do it. ”

After hearing this, the king got up, saluted and said, "Be careful to be taught." Zhu Wu hurriedly replied: "The only way to do this is to send a messenger to Liu Ying to prepare for a lawsuit, and return Cai Mao and others to him, and make an appointment with him to rule the river." The king was overjoyed and said, "Who can be the messenger?" ”

"My lord, I am willing to be the envoy, and I hope that Liu Ying and his party will be." A man from outside the tent replied. Wang Hao raised his eyes and looked, it was really Xiao Rang, Wang Hao said: "By the uncle's ceremony, I feel at ease, I am afraid that Liu Biao will harm you." Xiao Rang replied: "But for the great cause of the Lord, let me avoid the sword soldiers." Besides, if the two countries exchange troops and do not kill them, Liu Biaosu is called a famous man, and he will definitely not dare to do this. Wang Hao said: "In this way, there will be Uncle Lao's ceremony." Xiao Rangqian said: "Let me do my best for the lord, and I don't dare to do my best." ”

After saying that, Xiao Rang retreated aside, and Zhu Wu said again: "Lord, the current plan is to prevent Liu Biao from taking advantage of my new victory, and the soldiers will be slack off and attack the camp at night." Wang Hao praised: "What Wen Lie said is very true, and he ordered all the troops to be on guard, and if there is any slackness, they will not be spared." After that, he ordered Chao Gai to guard the front camp, and Luda and Xuanzan were on the left and right.

After everything was done, Wang Hao said again: "Since our army intends to make peace with Liu Biao, the captured generals in Jingzhou are all heroes for a while, and they should not be treated slowly, I want to set up a banquet to treat each other, what do you think?" Zhu Wu and Xiao Rang all agreed, and when Wang Hao saw this, he ordered his entourage to prepare wine and meat, and led the generals to accompany him.

However, it was said that Yuan Shu was in Nanyang at the right time, and he heard that his brother Yuan Shao had a new trip to Jizhou, and sent an envoy to ask for a thousand horses, but Yuan Shao did not agree. Yuan Shu was furious, and since then the brothers have not been harmonious. He also sent an envoy to Jingzhou and asked Liu Biao to borrow 200,000 yuan of grain, but Liu Biao wanted to fight with Wang Hao, but immediately refused. Yuan Shu secretly hated it, and secretly sent a messenger to Sun Jian to instigate him to attack Liu Biao. The book is slightly written:

The former Liu Biao intercepted the road, which was my brother's original plan. At the beginning of this year, he had a private discussion with his cousin and wanted to attack Jiangdong. Now Liu Biao is cutting down Jingnan, the public can take advantage of the emptiness of Jingzhou, and quickly attack it. Take Jingzhou, I take Jizhou, don't make a mistake.

Sun Jian said to himself: "Liu Biao cut off my way back in the past, and now I don't take advantage of the hatred, but what year will I stay!" After that, he summoned all the generals under his tent to discuss sending troops, although the generals hindered each other, but their hearts were very strong, and the generals could not stop them. Sun Jian sent Huang Gai to the riverside first to arrange warships, load more weapons, grain and grass, load the big ships with war horses, and Ke Rixing Division. Jiangzhong made a detailed exploration and reported to Xiangyang City. Stay in the city, don't drive Liu Biao to make someone report to Liu Biaozhi, press it and don't say it for the time being.

It was said that Wang Hao put wine and meat in the tent, and ordered people to invite Wang Wei, Huang Zu, Cai Mao, Kuai Liang and others. When everyone arrives, let them sit on the left and the generals accompany them on the right. Everyone entered the table, Kuai Liang took the wine and meat without saying a word, Wang Wei did not change his face and poured the wine by himself, Cai Mao had a sad face on his face, Cai Zhong and Cai He did not say anything about him. Only Huang Zu came into the account and scolded: "Wang Hao'er, what tricks do you want to do? Now I call you to arrest him, and the eldest husband will die, and if there is anything else to say, there is no need to say it. ”

The generals under the command of Wang Hao on the right were furious when they heard this, and they all rose up according to their swords. Wang Hao hurriedly comforted the generals with warm words, and personally came to bring wine for Huang Zu and said: "Huang Gongwei is famous, I have heard of it. Today's banquet is not for anything else, you are all my Jingzhou heroes, you and I are in the same state, in the past I had no chance to see, today I am fortunate to invite you, do not mean to offend the dignity, specially prepare a thin wine, talk about the heart. It's still in filial piety, you can't drink, and I hope Huang Gong will forgive me. Huang Gong drank victorious. ”

Huang Zu saw that Wang Hao was so polite that he couldn't attack, so he suddenly changed his color and took wine and meat. Cai Mao on the side heard it really, and immediately let go of her worries, drank happily, and drank a few more cups unconsciously. Cai Mao took advantage of the drunkenness and came forward to pay respects to the king, but the king smiled and declined. Cai Mao said: "I respect you kindly, why don't you give me affection?" Cai Mao still needs to say more, and the generals here have already stood up with their swords and glared at Cai Mao angrily.

Cai Mao saw that the generals were full of color, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and the wine also woke up for seven or eight minutes, and retreated. Wang Hao motioned to the generals with his eyes and not to be impatient. came to make wine for Wang Wei again, Wang Wei was silent, the wine was dry, and Wang Hao didn't say much. Wang Hao saluted Wang Wei, and then went to Kuai Liang and served wine for him.

Kuai Liang is also a humble gentleman, Wang Hao and a few words, the two have a sense of confidant, due to the occasion, the two are inconvenient to say, Kuai Liang can only drink a few more cups to show his heart. Wang Hao went to Cai Mao again, took the wine for him, and smiled without saying a word. Cai Mao looked ashamed, drank it all, and said no more.

Wang Hao drank wine for Cai Zhong and Cai He, and the two of them were suddenly treated well by Wang, and they immediately lost their grounds. Wang Hao just soothed with warm words, and the two of them felt a little calmer, and Fang Changhuai started drinking.

After Wang Hao was for everyone present, he would retire first. The generals of the southern army were inconvenient to drink more because of their heavy responsibilities, and it was inconvenient for the people of the northern army to leave the field as prisoners.

When the time came, Liu Pan and Wen Ping ordered their soldiers and horses, hoping that Wang Hao would come to the camp. Liu Pan suggested to Lu Wenping: "Master Pan, the southern army is cunning, we must be cautious to prevent an ambush. The two of us can be divided into two teams, I lead a team first, Childe leads the rear team to come, if there is no ambush in the southern army, the two of us drive straight forward, if there is an ambush, Childe will come to save me again. ”

Liu Pan said: "Zhongye's words are very good, so I will follow Zhongye's words." The two of them divided the two teams before and after, Wen Ping went first, Liu Pan waited for Wen Ping to go out for a while, and Fang led the team to follow.

Let's say that Wen Ping led the front army to the front of the southern army village, and saw that in the southern military camp, the bonfires were dense and silent. He ordered the sergeants to make noise and hit the camp. Suddenly, there was a sound, like a landslide, and the sergeant Kuluo Yu fell into the pit. Wen Pingzhi was in the middle of the ambush and urgently ordered the troops to retreat. Chao Gai led the army out in front, and the arrows were set off, Luda killed from the left, Xuanzan killed from the right, the northern army was in chaos, trampling on each other, and there were countless dead.

Wen Ping was trapped in the chaos and couldn't move, but fortunately, Liu Pan was killed at this time, and the two armies would be in one place, and the two fought and retreated. Kuai Yue heard the sound of killing in the camp, and the secret way was not good, so he urgently ordered Su Fei and Zhang Hu to gather troops and horses to rescue. The two armies fought in a scuffle, and the battle lasted until dawn when they each collected their troops and returned to their camps.
