Chapter 262: Coercion, Coercion, Coercion
Just when Liu Bei and others were discussing, a spy came to report that the opponent's naval army had all landed, and the opponent's banner was "Gan", and they were threatening to annex Zhao Yun's cavalry.
What is Zhao Yun's surname, Liu Bei knows. Although he is not very likable, his surname is rigorous. Now that the order has been given, let him take care of the ship.
Then unless the head is cut off and the body is dead, the ship will definitely not be abandoned. The three hundred cavalry were finally pulled up, and Liu Bei naturally would not let it go.
So he ordered: "Order Zhao Yun to retreat and come to Wancheng to join me." ”
"No." The herald responded, quickly mounted his war horse, and ran towards Zhao Yun's headquarters.
On the west bank of the river, the atmosphere is solemn.
A little further north are Liu Bei's moored ships, which are of different sizes and very messy. The banners are "Liu", "Guan", "Zhao" and so on.
And a little further south, it is naturally Ganning who has just arrived nearby. A whole hundred standard warships, plus Gan Ning is a professional naval general, there is a set of means for the docking of warships.
The mooring is staggered and quite imposing.
These two are compared, and the judgment is made. In front of Gan Ning's fleet, Liu Bei's fleet is not worthy of Gan Ning's support.
The momentum on the shore is the same.
The two parties were all pulled out. Among them, Gan Ning is in the south and Zhao Yun is in the north.
Although Gan Ning's army was not cavalry, it was a full 6,000 foot soldiers, neatly arranged. First of all, "Gan" and "Shi" will be under the banner, Gan Ning and Shi Chang stand on horseback.
In front of them were three hundred cavalry led by Zhao Yun. The soldiers and horses trained by Zhao Yun are, of course, extraordinary. But in terms of quantity, there is a huge difference.
Three hundred people stand in front of six thousand, and their momentum is more than one step weaker, and how can they fight when they are cowardly?
But in front of the three hundred cavalry, Zhao Yun was dressed in silver armor, straddling a white horse at his waist, and grabbed it on his back. Yi Ran looked at Gan Ning fearlessly.
Liu Bei is really accurate in looking at people. Gan Ning obviously had bad intentions, but it was a dream to let Zhao Yun give up his baggage and ships and retreat without a fight.
On Gan Ning's side, Shi Chang glanced at it, and only felt that the other party was very aggressive, and the first general was even more imposing. It's an admiral.
But appreciating and appreciating, Shi Chang is still very clear about his position.
"Captain." Shi Chang turned his head to look at Gan Ning and said, "The lord has a grudge against Liu Bei, and the world knows it. Now we don't enter the new field because the new no city is tall and difficult to conquer. Now when I encounter this new wild army and horse, I should swallow it for the lord to vent my anger. ”
At this moment, Gan Ning was also looking at Zhao Yun carefully, and said with a slight smile when he heard the words: "I have heard the lord say that this person in front of me is a rare general. Jush's cavalry. The lord coveted it. ”
Saying that, Gan Ning paused and said with a smile: "Aren't we still in Jiangxia with more than 6,000 war horses?" As for how to control these six thousand war horses, the best person in the lord's heart is the person in front of him. ”
"But this person is Liu Bei's general, I heard that Liu Bei has the best set of rules for controlling people's hearts, and the generals under his account can serve their lives. It may not be easy for them to surrender. Shi Chang said a little disappreciatively.
"Whether or not we can surrender is a matter for the lord, and what we have to do is not to add to the chaos, leave these three hundred cavalry alone, our current priority is Wancheng." As he spoke, Gan Ning's face became extremely solemn, and his eyes were full of murder.
"Zhao Yun is here, then Liu Bei may already be in Wancheng. If we arrive at the last step and are breached by it, it will be very difficult for us to take it back. ”
"Well, it's more important to break Wancheng first." Shi Chang also felt that it was not cost-effective to trouble Zhao Yun now, so he nodded and said.
Immediately, he frowned again and said: "But Liu Bei has cavalry, if he attacks our warship at night, it will be very troublesome." ”
"It's polite. Besides, counting the time, the lord should be nearby. They have no boats to cross the river, so we must leave behind our men to make boats to carry the Lord across the river. Gan Ning thought about it for a moment and nodded.
"Didn't the lord cross the river with Cao Ren in Liucheng? How did you come here? Shi Chang lost his voice.
"The lord has a fire bull array, and it is not a problem to break Cao Ren. Moreover, Zhao Yun is also here. Saying that, Gan Ning glanced at Zhao Yun, his eyes full of smiles, "That proves that Liu Bei got the news that Cao Ren was defeated." ”
"Fire Bull Formation?" Shi Chang's eyes flashed, and he lost his voice again.
For this famous formation in the Warring States Period, Shi Chang is also thunderous.
"Now is not the time to talk about this, you lead the men and horses of your headquarters and station them here, on the one hand, to guard against the surprise attack of Zhao Yun's cavalry, and on the other hand, to prepare for the lord to cross the river. I'm going to fight Liu Bei for Wancheng. Gan Ning didn't want to say more, so he pulled the reins of the horse, turned the horse's head, and said loudly to the rear: "Wancheng is in front, and all the soldiers will kill with me." ”
Immediately, Gan Ning rode his horse in the direction of Wancheng and galloped away.
"Kill." Five thousand people let out a shout of killing in unison, and followed Gan Ning.
A moment later, on the west bank of the river, only a thousand men and horses under the command of Shi Chang were left to fight against Zhao Yun.
Three hundred against six thousand, although Zhao Yun is not afraid, it is a certain death. Therefore, Gan Ning's departure made Zhao Yun breathe a sigh of relief, but then, Zhao Yun's heart tightened, but he was worried about the situation on Liu Bei's side.
Just then, the herald arrived.
"The lord has an order, and he orders General Zhao to abandon the baggage, the ship, and the lord to turn."
"No." Zhao Yun immediately gave up thinking in his heart, answered the order loudly, led three hundred cavalry, and also headed towards Wancheng.
This time, it was Shi Chang's turn to breathe a sigh of relief. Although the number is small, the combat effectiveness of the elite cavalry is really terrifying. Although he has a thousand men, he may not be able to defend it.
"Now, just wait for the lord to appear." Shi Chang turned his head to look at the east, with some expectation in his eyes.
The lord defeated Cao Ren.
On the other hand, Gan Ning led his troops to attack Wancheng and was rapidly approaching Liu Bei, and Zhao Yun also led his troops to fight Liu Bei because he received Liu Bei's order.
Soon after, the two armies met in front of the east gate of Wancheng.
It was not a harmonious scene of friends meeting with friends, but a meeting between enemies and enemies, bringing out an atmosphere of saber rattling that almost froze the air.
At this moment, Guan Yu had already cleaned up the battlefield, and all the wounded soldiers were at the end, and the ones at the front were all refined soldiers.
First, Liu Bei rode his horse in front of the battle, and on both sides were Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang.
"My lord." Zhao Yun led three hundred cavalry to the front of Liu Bei and hugged his fists.
"Return to the flank." Liu Bei nodded lightly.
"No." Zhao Yun promised and immediately returned to the formation, on the left side of the formation. With the addition of Zhao Yun, Liu Bei's army slowly regained some momentum.
Anyway, there are 2,000 of them.
On the other hand, Gan Ning led the army to slowly approach Liu Bei's main formation. The sense of oppression brought by the 5,000-strong army is difficult to understand except for the parties involved.
It wasn't until the distance between the two armies was only more than 100 meters that Gan Ning raised the spear in his hand and ordered: "Stop." ”
The entire huge army, under the order of Gan Ning. The transition from marching to stationary was completed almost instantaneously. Gan Ning has been training for several months, and the quality of the soldiers has been greatly improved.
Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun and others all shrank their pupils when they saw it.
This army has an absolute advantage in numbers, and there are generals to guard it, and the army is relatively elite. The odds are gone.
Several people glanced at each other, and they all saw the worry in each other's eyes.
Gan Ning was also looking at Liu Bei and the others, and only felt that the other party's banner was quite a lot of "Liu", "Guan", "Zhao" and so on. But the soldiers were pitiful.
Gan Ning swept past the soldiers in front of Liu Bei's army and directly observed the rear.
I saw that the soldiers in the rear were all pale and seemed to be injured. Further back, a large number of corpses were piled up, Cao Jun's corpse.
Gan Ning's eyes flashed, and ecstasy surged in his heart. Unexpectedly, I didn't expect Liu Bei to have eliminated so many Cao Jun.
It seems that they are about to attack Wancheng, and they are coming.
What a great opportunity, come one step earlier, the defenders of the city are still there, and the attack on the city will definitely cause heavy losses. One step too late, Liu Bei had already attacked the city.
At that time, it will be more troublesome to attack Liu Bei.
The current situation is just right.
At this moment, Liu Bei rode out of the crowd, and after walking a few steps, he raised his fist and said to Gan Ning: "The person who came is Jiangxia Gan Ning, Captain Gan." ”
Gan Ning was calculating how to seize Wancheng, and when he saw Liu Bei coming out of the battle, he immediately knew what Liu Bei wanted to fight. It's just that he is unwilling to give up the prey he has in his hands. It's just a matter of grinding your mouth.
However, this Wancheng is something that my lord wants, how can I let it go?
"Exactly." Gan Ning sneered in his heart and replied.
Liu Bei's face did not move, and he continued to raise his fist and said: "I don't know if Captain Gan is leading the troops here, what are you doing?" ”
"On the orders of Jiangxia Taishou and Yang Wu's general Liu Hou, attack Wancheng." Gan Ning said very bluntly.
"Hehe, Cao Ying is a thief, and the city he owns can be attacked by everyone. The captain was ordered to attack Wancheng, I shouldn't have interfered, but the captain should have seen it, before the captain came, I had already fought for a while, and wiped out 1,500 Cao troops, and now the city is empty, just attack the city. Liu Bei said with a smile.
"You mean, Wancheng was fought by you first, so it's yours?" Gan Ning sneered and said.
"There's always to be a first-come, first-served basis, right?" Listening to Gan Ning sneering, his words were unceremoniously, Liu Bei's complexion also changed slightly, but he still maintained kindness, and even said in a low voice.
"Hahaha." Gan Ning looked up to the sky and laughed, laughing more than breathlessly.
I was very relieved in my heart, Liu Feng could have begged Liu Bei in such a low voice back then, but I didn't expect feng shui to take turns, and now Liu Bei wants to whisper to him, Liu Feng's general.
After a long time, the laughter stopped, and Gan Ning shouted, "Ridiculous, it has always been a siege of cities and land, whoever has a big fist and the right time will occupy the city." Now my fist is bigger, my timing is more accurate, and of course this city is mine. What's more, this city is still Cao Ren's. I rightly beat him. ”
Although Gan Ning's words were slapping Liu Bei in the face, it was obvious that your fist was not as big as mine, and you didn't choose the wrong time for your own attack. Who else is to blame?
But it does make a lot of sense. Fighting on the battlefield, either you die or I die. Now that I have the upper hand, why can't I take your city?
Besides, you haven't occupied this city yet.
When Liu Bei heard this, his face turned purple for a while.
"Hmph, don't think we're scared of you." At this moment, Guan Yu snorted coldly and came out of the crowd.
As Guan Yu rode his horse closer step by step, Gan Ning only felt an overwhelming murderous aura sweeping towards him. At the same time, a feeling as if he was in a sea of corpses and blood rose from Gan Ning's heart.
The smell of blood at the tip of the nose is strong and strong.
Gan Ning was shocked in his heart, knowing that this was just an illusion, all of this came from the man in front of him with a face like red dates and a long beard.
This is a bloody murderous aura rolling out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
"Haha, if you're not afraid, why do you have to waste your lips and tongue?" Gan Ning looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, his whole body was condensed, and with a wave of the spear in his hand, he rode forward.
raised his head, opened his eyes, and looked at Guan Yu fearlessly.
A momentum that was not inferior to Guan Yu burst out from him. has different experiences, Gan Ning was a ranger who killed people without blinking an eye in his early years, not a battlefield general like Guan Yu.
Therefore, he does not have Guan Yu's momentum like a mountain of corpses rolling over a sea of blood, but he has a monstrous killing intention.
At this moment, his eyes are round, and his spear is crossed. In terms of momentum, it is enough to compete with Guan Yu.
Gan Ning's words made Guan Yu's expression slightly unnatural, and his momentum was weak.
Gan Ning was unforgiving, pressing step by step, and laughed wildly: "Liu Bei, don't think that I dare not destroy you here, if you stay in Xinye obediently and the city is tall, I may think about three points." But you fought with Cao's army first, and more than half of the soldiers and horses were lost, and now there is no city to protect you. I'll kill you here first, and then I'll go back to Junxinye. Break it. ”
In Gan Ning's wild laughter, Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu, and Zhao Yun all changed color.
An unimaginable anger rose from their hearts. An unimaginable killing force condensed from their hearts.
But no matter how powerful they are, they are only people, and Gan Ning's army has five or six thousand people.
Therefore, this anger, this murderous aura, can only be held in the heart, held in the heart, even if it is vomiting blood, it cannot be turned into reality.
They don't dare, they don't dare to fight to the death with Gan Ning here.
Just like Gan Ning said, if you dare to fight to the death, you won't waste your lips and tongues.
"Perhaps, you can escape. But Xinye can't escape, and when the city is broken, I will kill Liu Chan first, so that you will lose your children and grandchildren. Gan Ning laughed again, his expression extremely arrogant.
Who is Gan Ning, who disagreed with each other back then, and drew his sword to face each other. Others treat them with kindness, and he treats them as friends, and he makes a promise. If others neglect him, he will destroy all people.
Liu Feng courteously greeted him and promoted him. Let him be in a high position and be a captain. He should repay him with a countryman.
And in the face of Liu Bei, who persecuted Liu Feng back then, of course he stepped on it as much as he wanted. Fight strong soldiers, slap your face every sentence, and beat that one happily.
Watching Gan Ning look up to the sky and laugh wildly, that arrogant attitude. Listening to Gan Ning, he actually said that he would cut off his children and grandchildren. Liu Bei's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
But he still didn't dare, didn't dare to use troops.
I had to say a word, hiding my anger, and said loudly: "Where is Liu Feng, let him come out to see me." ”
Seeing Liu Bei faintly holding up his father's posture.
Gan Ning's laughter stopped abruptly when he heard this, his eyes were glowing with coldness, and he said coldly: "Do you think that now you can still teach him a lesson in the name of "father"? Don't say he didn't come, even if he did, he wouldn't bend his knees, he wouldn't bend his spine again. His back would be like a sword, straight to the sky. If you want to ask for Wancheng, dream. ”
