Chapter 118: People who are not good at fooling
(In the last chapter, my head was dizzy, and I wrote a few places where Liu Feng was the protagonist of my last book, "Fang Shao", which made everyone laugh and sweat.) )
Ma Yan, the crony who was pulled by Liu Feng and had followed him since the battle of Lushan, was escaping from Liu Feng's eyes as a rebel general at this moment.
How can you be indifferent!
Angry, Liu Feng rode his horse straight to Ma Jian and shouted: "Ma Yan, I treat you well, why do you betray me?" ”
Lu Shenju trampled the grass with four hooves, speeding like the wind, following Liu Feng's voice, and was five steps closer to Ma Jian in an instant.
Ma Tan looked flustered, where was there time to respond, just patting the horse and galloping.
"Die!"
The angry Liu Sealing Machine increased sharply, and when the two horses were staggered, a heavy spear shot out from under the left rib like an electric light marker, and Ling Lie's blow stabbed straight at Ma Yan's head.
In a flash of lightning, Ma Tan leaned forward in a hurry, trying to avoid the fatal blow.
He did it, and with the power of a thousand pounds, the iron armor could easily tear through the spear, almost grazing against his body. Although he did not inflict fatal injuries, the remaining strength of the blade actually tore his back armor alive, like the strong wind of the blade, and a puddle of blood splattered up.
"Hmm!"
Ma Tan only felt a pain in his back, knowing that he was already injured, but he did not dare to delay a little, and still lay on the horse's back, whipping his mount desperately.
The blow missed, and when Liu Fengle Ma turned around, Ma Jian was already ten steps away, and with the support of dozens of rebels, he fled for his life towards Guan Yu's army.
He stood proudly at the head of the drawbridge, staring coldly at Ma Tan's gradual retreat, but did not continue the pursuit. When he turned back, a sneer flashed at the corner of his mouth.
In the absence of pursuit, Liu Feng smoothly withdrew to Linxiang City, quickly pulled up the suspension bridge, and closed the city gate. Counting the soldiers and horses, about 200 people were lost in this battle.
"Old General, are you alright?" Liu Feng saw that Huang Zhong's complexion was not good, so he asked with concern.
"This Guan Yunchang is really worthy of his name."
Huang Zhong, who turned over and dismounted, was already sweating on his cheeks, his chest was rising and falling due to rapid breathing, and his originally old face became a little hideous and terrifying due to the overdraft of his physical strength.
"That Guan Yu is in his prime, and at the age of an old general, it is quite rare to be able to fight with him for a hundred rounds. In my opinion, if the old general was twenty or thirty years younger, Guan Yu would have already become the ghost of the old general's knife at this moment. ”
Liu Feng's words were not compliments, but sincere admiration, but he was a little secretly glad in his heart, glad that he was calm, and he was not arrogant enough to fight Guan Yu in person.
"Not necessarily, not necessarily." Huang Zhong shook his head and smiled, didn't care about speaking for a while, picked up the water bladder and poured it violently.
At this time, Liu Ba had already come down from the city, came closer, and laughed in a low voice: "Lord, the scene of civil strife played by me and Ma Zhonglang is quite realistic." ”
"The play is seamless." Liu Feng nodded in praise.
"I'm still worried, in case Guan Yu sees that we are in turmoil and takes advantage of the situation to pursue, if he is allowed to enter the city, it will be a big deal." Liu Ba's tone was a little palpitating.
Liu Feng sneered: "Guan Yu is so smart, he will definitely think that this civil strife was deliberately arranged by us, and he wants to set up an ambush to deliberately lead him to rush to the city, so he will not move." It's a pity that being smart is often mistaken by being smart. ”
Huang Zhong, who had finished pouring the water, suddenly remembered something, "The shot that the lord shot at that Ma Zhonglang just now, I was terrified in the back, and I almost thought that the lord you really wanted to kill him." ”
Liu Ba also said: "I also saw it in the city, in fact, this deception plan is just the first part of our strategy, there is no need to let Ma Zhonglang get injured, and he can still achieve his goal, it was really a bit risky just now." ”
"I said earlier, Guan Yu is a smart person, and he can't play enough, how can he be fooled."
Liu Ba was stunned and said blankly: "Lord, what is 'flickering'?" ”
"Well, ahem......"
………………
On the east bank of Xiangshui, Guan Yu's big tent in the Chinese army.
Guan Yu's eyes were slightly closed, and he sat there expressionlessly like an iron tower, and the two generals Zhou Cang and Liao Hua stood on the left and right.
Twenty swordsmen and axes stood in a row, swords and axes, tiger eyes were angry, and there was a sense of slaughter.
The curtain was lifted, and a bloody horse staggered in.
"Ma Tan has seen General Guan." When Ma Tan spoke, he was neither humble nor arrogant, and there was no trace of shame at all.
Guan Yu slowly opened his eyes and stared coldly at the young man in front of him, his blade-like gaze as if it was about to tear his flesh and skin and penetrate his inner thoughts.
"Ma Yan, as soon as your brother came out, General Zuo entrusted him with the important task of keeping the ether, although you are young, General Zuo also appreciates you, why do you want to help that rebel betray General Zuo?"
In the face of Guan Yu's questioning, Ma Yan looked calm and explained unhurriedly: "Liu Feng's rebellion, my brothers did not know about it in advance, the incident was sudden, he coerced him by force, and we were forced by his Yinwei, so we had to temporarily compromise. ”
"So, you are trapped in the enemy camp, but your heart is for the old master." Guan Yu's expression softened a little.
Ma Jian said lightly: "That's right. I have been dormant for a long time, in order to take the opportunity to seize the door and surrender, and make up for the merits, how do I think General Guan doesn't know why, but he didn't take advantage of the situation to attack the city, I am weak, so I can only fight out of the siege and come to the general. ”
"It's a good one's to seize the door and surrender, and make up for it, haha-"
Guan Yu laughed wildly for no reason, and there was no hint of pleasure in that smile, but it was full of sarcasm and coldness, and Ma Yan's brows in front of the case couldn't help frowning slightly.
Syllable!
The laughter stopped abruptly, Guan Yu slapped the case, and said coldly: "Ma Yan'er, you colluded with Liu Feng's annihilators to play this trick of deception, do you think you can blind my Guan Yu's eyes?" ”
Ma Tan changed color when he heard this, and said hurriedly: "I am sincere to surrender, why did General Guan say this?" ”
Guan Yu sneered, stroked his beard and said contemptuously: "Although Liu Feng's martial arts are not in my eyes, it is more than enough to kill you, but before the suspension bridge, he only stabbed you, which is obviously a bitter trick." You think you can convince me that you hurt yourself, hmph, you are smart! Come, drag this deceitful out and behead him on the spot. ”
The left and right tigers are raging, and they will drag Ma Jian out on the spot.
Ma Jian was shocked and shouted urgently: "That Liu Feng is cunning, he probably expected the general to think so, so he deliberately let me go, so that the general mistakenly thought that I was a deceitful surrender and beheaded me." I really surrendered sincerely, and I implore the general not to fall for Liu Feng's plan to kill people with a knife, otherwise it will definitely chill the hearts of those people in Changsha who are willing to go to the left. ”
Ma Yan's self-defense was not unreasonable, Guan Yu temporarily suppressed his anger, waved his hand to signal his subordinates not to do it first, and said coldly: "You keep saying that you are sincere in surrendering, but what you do is full of flaws, what do you use to prove your sincerity." ”
Ma Tan broke free from the samurai's press, jumped up from the ground, and said: "I have a plan, not only to help the general quickly break through Linxiang, but also to prove my innocence." ”
