Chapter Seventy-Seven: Liu Bei is defeated and retreats

Chapter Seventy-Seven: Liu Bei is defeated and retreats

At the beginning of November of the second year of Yong'an, Cao Xiaode commanded the Eastern Route Army. With Xiahou Chun as the handsome, the old "is still a military advisor", and finally rushed to Jiangdu, Guangling County.

And at this moment, Jiangdu is already in danger, and under the thunderous offensive of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, even Chen Deng is very difficult to defend.

However, for Zhou Yu, Chen Deng, who is now in the Jiangdu of Guangling, can be regarded as an extremely hateful figure, no matter how Zhou Yu lures and attacks, then Chen Deng is not in the plan, and the Jiangdu is not falling.

With a fire in his heart, Sun Ce followed the policy of Zhou Yu, the military division, and led a large army to besiege Guangling, and sent four generals, Tai Shici, Ling Cao, Zhou Tai, and Jiang Qin, to divide into two routes. Capture the rest of the cities in Guangling County, and Chen Deng, who has weak troops and few good generals, has no way to do it.

By the end of October, except for the capital of the river that was still in the hands of Chen Deng, the rest of the cities were all in the hands of Sun Ce, and it was cut here that Cao Mengde's rescue army arrived.

Moreover, it was more than Zhou Yu expected. Much earlier,,

It turned out that Zhou Yu had calculated that Cao Cao would send reinforcements, and immediately sent an army to set up countless roadblocks and traps on the way, the purpose of which was to delay the arrival of the army; However, there is another side. Guo Jia is not weak, he led an army of 5,000 people and falsely claimed to be 30,000 people, and slowly advanced from the official road, while at the same time, a series of generals who could recruit good soldiers, such as Xiahou Wei, Le Jin, and Li Dian, secretly led the elite to march from the trail to Jiangdu.

And once Jiangdu has the support of Xiahoudun, Le Jin, Li Dian and other generals. Chen Deng suddenly felt a lot more relieved, but Sun Ce under the city was to retreat more than ten miles and then set up camp again, and in addition, he urgently recruited Tai Shici and other four generals to come back.

On November 5 of the second year of Jian'an, Sun Ce personally went into battle, feinted to attack Jiangdu to explore Cao Mengde's reinforcements, and his general Tai Shi Ci fought under the Jiangdu City, Le Jin and Li Dian were defeated one by one, and in desperation, Xiahou Dun, who was a general, personally went into battle, and Tai Shi Ci fought more than 100 times, and both of them were exhausted

Withdraw.

Not to mention that Sun Ce cares about Jiangdu. What his righteous brother Zhou Yu cares about is one person, Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao, the military divisions of the Eastern Route Army!

Even if this person has been delayed by the trap set by himself all the way, the time can be reached now, why hasn't he seen him for a long time?

Suspicious, Zhou Yu immediately sent people to Qu'a, Dantu, and Ling's three counties to inquire about the movement, but he didn't expect to get the news that Guo Jia coerced 5,000 elite soldiers to cross the river and attack Qu'a.

Guo Jia's move is right in Sun Ce's weakness, Na Qu, but it is the habitat of the Sun family!

When asked about this, Sun Ce was shocked, and immediately sent a letter to Huang Gai, Han Dang and other veterans, asking them to guard Qu A to refuse Guo Jia's invasion. However, more than ten days later, he received a letter from Huang Gai, saying that Guo Jia only showed up under the city and did not know his whereabouts."

Zhou Yu smiled slightly, and immediately calculated Guo Jia's plan, and advised Sun Ce to abandon all the cities he had captured, pretending to withdraw troops to return to help, and then ordered the two generals Tai Shici and Ling Cao to lead the army to secretly ambush outside the Jiangdu.

But out of Zhou Yu's expectations. The Cao army in Jiangdu City never came out to pursue, and just when he was puzzled, he received a letter from Guo Jia, the military advisor of the Cao army

"Thank you!" Looking at the only two big characters in the letter, Zhou Yu's eyebrows condensed, and then he sneered and took a piece of paper, and wrote two words and gave it to Guo Jia.

"No thanks!"

See these two words of Zhou Yu. Guo Jia was slightly stunned, obviously a little puzzled, his heart moved, and he immediately sent someone to a nearby county to inquire about the details. After understanding the reason, he suddenly smiled bitterly.

Guo Jia designed Zhou Yu to take the initiative to "return, and the city occupied near Guangling took the lead, but before Zhou Yu retreated, he let people burn all the grain and grass in those cities, and returned not only the city to Cao Jun, but also the flail...

So Guo Jia had no choice but to assign guards to the surrounding counties and counties, and at the same time, he also had to transport grain, grass, rice, and grain...

And Zhou Yu, seeing that Guo Jia's real purpose was not to attack Qu'a, so he returned to the army with Sun Ce.

The two armies suddenly fell into a stalemate,

At this time, Xuan Xuan, who almost led most of the elite under Cao Cao's account, was different from Guo Jia and Chen Deng's passivity."

"Situ, don't come unharmed" Looking at Jiang Zhe in the army outside the city, Liu Bei stood on the city wall, clasped his fists and greeted with a smile.

Squeak Xuande" Jiang Zhedan looked at the person in the distance with complicated eyes, and sighed secretly in his heart

Gas.

And beside Jiang Zhe, Jia Xu looked at Liu Bei on the city wall in the distance with some surprise, looked puzzled, and asked quietly, "Situ seems to be a little afraid of this person?" ”

Jiang Zhe was shocked in his heart, and his face inevitably showed some surprise, and then he looked at the kindness in Jia Xu's eyes, shook his head and sighed, "This person" is afraid that he is a strong enemy! ”

"Huh?" Jia Xu was also taken aback, and suddenly turned his head to look at Liu Bei, his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Liu Xuande!" Facing the Anle City Wall, Jiang Zhe shouted loudly, "You were forced by Lu Fengxian at the beginning, who saved you?" "Now. Just when everyone called Uncle Liu Huang, Xiao Jiangzhe called Liu Bei directly, but everyone didn't feel that there was anything wrong, even Liu Bei himself.

I saw that Liu Bei's face on the city wall was stunned, and he was about to reply, when suddenly Jian Yong beside him preemptively arched his hand and said, "The events of the day, we dare not forget Situ Daen, but now that they are fighting, Situ Ruo is holding on to seek revenge." I'm afraid it's inappropriate, right? ”

"Huh?" Liu Bei immediately shouted luck in his heart: if he said it himself, I am afraid that he would not forget "Cao Gong, the grace, in this way, wouldn't he become ungrateful?"

"Hey, this guy has a quick wit!" Beside Jiang Zhe, Jia Xu laughed.

Only! Snorted coldly. frowned and glanced at Jian Yong, and said to Liu Bei in reply, "Liu Xuande, let me ask you, when you were in Xuzhou, how did you tell me?" ”

When Liu Bei heard this, the scene where Jiang Zhe said that he joined Cao Cao that day suddenly appeared in his mind, and secretly screamed in his heart that it was not good.

"Situ's words are ridiculous" is different from Liu Bei's speechlessness, Jian Yong beside him returned with a smile, "Don't Situ hear it, at this time and that time, we used to call that the public, but today, hehe" I can't figure it out, why is Situ such a person, still not very righteous, raising unrighteous soldiers, and wanting to help the gang to abuse? ”

"Hahaha!" In the face of Jian Yong's trouble, Jiang Zhe still had time to answer, but Jia Xu took it, and now he has joined Jiang Zhe as a guest, if Jiang Zhe is humiliated, Jia Xu will not be able to escape.

"Your Excellency actually compares Cao Gong to the king of Zhou, what are you? Don't tell me, you wait for the self-proclaimed King Wen of Zhou! ”

Jian Yong's complexion changed, at the beginning, the four princes under the command of King Xu, the other three roads didn't matter, just Xiqi had some problems, that Xiqi, but it was anti-Shang Lizhou"

"How dare you" Jian Yonglang smiled and said, "Everyone in the world came with righteousness and left with righteousness, and now Cao Mengde has lost our heart, so my lord has left." Dare to ask Situ, is there anything wrong? ”

"Humph!" Jiang Zhe smiled coldly and said lightly, "The world is bustling, and it is all for profit; The world is bustling 1 for the benefit of "benevolence and righteousness: the word, has always been in the heart. If it is so easy to hang on his lips, Xianhe, aren't you afraid that the word benevolence and righteousness will change its taste?! ”

Situ is really a man of true knowledge" Jia Xu was moved when he heard this, looking at Liu Bei and Jian Yong on the city wall, and secretly laughed in his heart.

I saw Jian Yong's face stagnant, and he sneered

I'm afraid it's inappropriate, if you go down the mountain a thousand times... Cao Mengde's is not, only Situ is alone, can he compare to the world? ”

When Jia Xu heard this, he peeked at Jiang Zhe, naturally wanting to hear what friends he would say.

"You're talking about the people of the world. Not including me Jiang Zhe! Jiang Zhe replied coldly, then pointed to the army behind him, and said slowly, "I'm afraid it doesn't include the soldiers under my account, the people of Xudu, and the people of Chongzhou, Xuzhou, and Yuzhou, so how can people in the world say?" Liu Xuande! Do you deserve to be called a man of the world? ”

Liu Bei hesitated for a while, hesitated and clenched his fists and said, "Bei District is a person, and he dares to compare with the people of the world!" ”

"So Jingzhou Liu Jingsheng can be called a person in the world? Can Jiangdong Sun Bofu be called a person in the world? There are other princes from all walks of life, but can they be called the people of the world?! ”

In the face of Jiang Zhe's cold drink, even Jian Yong was not easy to answer, in case one of them was not good, he would be hated by other princes in the future. So how?

"Since you and others are not worthy of the name of the people of the world, you must not put the people of the world on your lips, and plot against you under the pretext of righteousness. It makes me laugh! Looking at the people on the city wall, Jiang Zhe shouted in a deep voice, "Liu Xuande, let me ask you again, do you really want to be an enemy of my lord?" ”

Liu Bei glanced at Jiang Zhe, hesitated and clenched his fists and said, "What did Cao Gongzhi do." Liu Bei didn't dare to agree, and asked Situ to forgive his sins

I saw the corners of Jiang Zhe's eyes twitch, his brows furrowed deeply, and he seemed to be very dissatisfied with Liu Bei's answer.

"Situ" Jia Xu beside him persuaded him, "Xu Zi also thinks that if this person is not killed, it will become a big disaster in the future, Situ, when you continue to make decisions, you will suffer from its chaos!" ”

Hearing this, he took a deep breath, Jiang Zhe waved his sleeves, pointed at Anle Chengchi and shouted, "Attack!" ”

Jia Xu smiled slightly, waved his hand behind him, and with a drum sound, more than ten wells gradually moved forward in the distance. And above the well, countless archers have already rocketed and bowed, and they are waiting.

"Alas" On the city wall, Liu Bei sighed and said in a low voice, "Situ, I still ordered the siege of the city!" ”

"Could it be that the lord still thinks that just by saying a few words, it can be said that Situ collected his troops and returned?" Jian Yong's face was fearless, and he said with a smile, "Situ is a person with a strong heart, how can he be moved by what we say?" It's like Wen Zhong, the great merchant of the day

"Xianhe's inappropriate" Liu Bei shook his head, frowned and said, "Even if Situ and us are enemies now, don't say so, the great Shang Taishi, but there are no bones left, Situ is a benevolent and righteous man, he deserves a good death!" ”

"Hey" Jian Yong laughed, "Without Jiang Ziya, how can you defeat the Taishi's words?" ”

"Jiang Ziya" Liu Bei heard this and thought thoughtfully.

"Big brother" With a loud shout, Zhang Fei hurriedly ran to the city wall, and said anxiously, "Big brother, if you are approached by Situ Jingqi." I'm going to die, why don't I ask the second brother and the younger brother to rush at him, destroy those wells, and force Situ to quit the army! As he spoke, he turned out behind him, stroking his long beard and looking at the situation outside the city in silence.

"How difficult" Liu Bei laughed at himself, pointed to a place in the distance and said, "Yide, look! ”

"This is" Following his brother Liu Bei's instructions, Zhang Fei's face showed a little solemnity, "Tiger and leopard... Zhao Zizhi..."

"I'm afraid Situ can't wait for us to go out," Jian Yong said with a smile, "But the land of peace and projectiles is afraid that it will be difficult to defend." Only to break through! ”

"Yes, if you don't go out," said Liu Beizhu, looking at the army that was getting closer and closer under the city on the city wall, and suddenly said, "It's just sitting and waiting to die, it's not my Liu Bei's character!" ”

"Big brother" Zhang Fei held the repaired Zhangba snake spear in his hand, and said with a smile. "In this way, we will follow Situ's mind,"

Guan Yu's squinted eyes slowly opened, and he took a deep breath and said, "I have heard that the tiger and leopard ride bravely, and I am also a little itchy for my second brother!" ”

"Hehe" Liu Bei glanced at the two of them, waved his hand and said loudly, "So, let's rush out later!" ”

And under the city, Cao Bing has already approached Anle with Liu Beijun's bow and arrows, and countless cloud ladders have been erected on the Anle City Wall, could it be that Liu Bei's corporal is too incompetent to let Cao Bing approach?

No, no, no, it's not that Liu Bei's corporal is incompetent, it's actually that there are very few of them, looking at the city wall, there are only a few hundred. How can you stop Jiang Zhe's first wave of offensive and a full 3,000 troops?

The elite Cao soldiers jumped onto the city wall as soon as possible and fought with Liu Jun there, but what was surprising was that Liu Bei and the others were nowhere to be seen.

Looking at the Anle City Wall, Jia Xu sneered, and said respectfully to Jiang Zhe, "Situ." Liu Xuande wants to break through

"Isn't that the right text and the mind?" Jiang Zhe said with a smile, but in his heart, it was extremely complicated.

Speaking of which, Liu Bei has always respected him very much, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are also respected by Jiang Zhe in his life, and the two parties have no grievances and no hatred. However, at this moment, Jiang Zhe had to kill them, "especially Liu Bei",

"I should have a clear conscience," Jiang Zhe muttered with a complicated expression.

"Huh?" Jia Xu was a little surprised, and didn't seem to hear clearly, "What did Situ Fang just say?" ”

"It's fine." Shaking his head, Jiang Zhe took a breath and shouted in a condensed voice, "Order the tiger and leopard to ride out!" ”

"No!" There was an escort next to him who immediately came out to answer the order, and a thundering arrow sounded in the direction of the tiger and leopard rider".

"Hey!" Glancing at the arrows that exploded in the sky, Cao Chun smiled, casually buckled his helmet on his head, and then looked at the tiger and leopard rider behind him and shouted in a deep voice, "Tiger and leopard ride off!" ”

"Drink!" With a loud shout, the momentum of the two thousand tigers and leopards riding here rose to the peak in an instant, and they rushed out one by one like wolves and tigers.

"General Zhao?" Looking at Zhao Yun who was stunned beside him strangely, Cao Chun called out in surprise.

"Huh? Oh" Zhao Yun woke up like a dream, looked down at the silver spear in his hand, and then shook the reins of his horse and rushed out.

Cao Chun shrugged and followed closely

With a relatively slight sound, the gate of Anle City slowly opened, and Liu Bei, who was dressed in military uniform, slowly rode out, glanced at Jiang Zhe's direction, and then shouted loudly, "Gentlemen, come with me!" With that, he shook the reins of his horse and rushed out first.

And behind him. Since Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, who are protecting Jian Yong, the three generals are killed in a zigzag shape, and Cao Bingyan nearby can resist?

"Shoot the arrows!" Jiang Zhe ordered loudly.

With his order. The remaining 2,000 archers behind him raised their bows and arrows at the same time, only to hear a loud "whoosh" sound, and more than 2,000 arrows were like a torrential rain, faintly covering Liu Bei and the others.

"Ahh Zhang Fei roared, and the snake spear flew, not only avoiding all the Cao soldiers around him, but also blocking the rain of arrows shooting at him.

Suddenly, I saw that his eyes changed, and he turned his head to one side, and when he turned back, there was already an arrow between his teeth

Looking at the Cao soldiers who were blocking in front of him, Guan Yu's face remained unchanged at all, and he held the Qinglong Yanyue Knife in his right hand to slash left and right. It seemed effortless, but the Cao soldiers on the opposite side all fell to the ground screaming and were trampled into flesh.

Armed with a double-strand sword. Although Liu Bei is not as young as him, he is said to be a righteous cook, but he is not an ordinary Cao soldier who can be stopped. The two protected Jian Yong and killed the phoenix.

"Lord" In such a crisis, Jian Yong's face did not change at all, he looked at one place and said to Liu Bei with a wry smile, "It seems that Situ wants to trap me all here."

Cutting down a member of Cao Jiang, Liu Bei glanced at it, and said with a wry smile, "Each is its master, and we are no wonder Situ" Hugh is going to say, for today's plan, the only way to kill is to die, if you are entangled by the tiger and leopard, I am afraid that I will die here."

"The subordinates have a plan" Looking at Liu Bei, Jian Yong said in a low voice, "I just don't know the lord,"

Liu Bei's entire mind was on killing the enemy, and when he heard this, he shouted in a deep voice, "Xianhe is coming!" ”

"The lord might as well ask the second general or the third general to lead the army straight to the Situ army, not to kill the enemy, but to create chaos, if the Situ army is chaotic, Cao Bing suddenly collapses, and we can also take the opportunity to escape!"

"This" knocked a crossbow arrow with his sword, Liu Bei looked at Jian Yong, and said hesitantly, "In the past, Situ never treated me badly, even if I am an enemy today, I"

"Lord!" Jian Yong shouted with a look on his face, "At this time and that time, even if Situ is kind to us, but now it is Situ who leads troops to attack us, and we just want to get out, so what's the matter?" Is the lord going to sit back and watch the five thousand lives buried here? ”

"Big brother, I'll go, only Zhang Fei shouted immediately, but he didn't turn the horse's head, but Guan Yu next to him jumped out of the horse first, and dropped a sentence in his mouth.

"Yide, you don't know the severity of your shot, it's better to leave a good student to protect the eldest brother and the military advisor, the foolish brother will come when he goes!"

"Second brother" Liu Bei hurriedly shouted when he saw this, "Don't hurt Situ's life!" ”

Did he injure Situ's life in the midst of the tiger and leopard ride? Guan Yu smiled bitterly.

"Hey" beside Jiang Zhe, Jia Xu sneered and said, "Then next to Liu Xuande, there are two fierce generals."

"Guan Yunchang little Zhang Yide" Jiang Zhe raised his eyes and looked at the sky, sighed long, and secretly screamed pity in his heart.

What a pity? Naturally, it's a pity that such a brave warrior will die here.

However, Jiang Zhe understood the meaning of a fierce general,

"How dare you stop me?" With a heavy shout, Guan Yu only led hundreds of elite horsemen into the Cao army's array, and for a while he was like a tiger like a flock of sheep, and no one could compete with him.

Looking up at the middle of the Cao army, Guan Yu immediately found the purpose of this trip, only to see that among the Chinese army, a big flag was waving in the wind, with white characters on a black background. "River"

"Situ!" Jia Xu also saw that the fierce general on the opposite side came over, and none of his soldiers were his opponents, Xiao's face suddenly changed greatly, and when he looked around, General Cao Jun was not beside him, and immediately shouted urgently, "Where are the archers?" Shoot this man! ”

"No!" The Chinese army, composed of 2,000 archers behind him, already knew that Jia Xu was now under Jiang Zhe's account, and immediately responded to the order

Exist?

Raising the bow and shooting more than 1,000 arrows like lightning, it was in front of Guan Yu in an instant, and Guan Yu picked up the green dragon knife and danced quickly. There was only a tinkling sound, and countless arrows seemed to hit an invisible wall and were bounced away.

However, Liu Beijun behind Guan Yu naturally did not have his martial arts, and all the people and horses in his body were hit by more than ten arrows, and he screamed. Even the man and the horse rolled twice, and then was trampled to death by the cavalry behind him.

"Guan Yu, Guan Yunchang. Extraordinary! Jiang Zhe nodded and muttered approvingly.

"Situ" Jia Xu pointed to the handsome flag beside the two of them, and said anxiously, "The purpose of this person must be this flag." Why don't you look elsewhere? ”

"Where to move? Are you trying to tell me to retreat? Looking at Jia Xu, Jiang Zhe said lightly.

I saw Jia Xu's tone stagnant, and he was speechless for a while.

"This is a handsome flag, Encore moves lightly?" Jiang Zhe frowned and said, then waved his sleeves, and immediately shouted, "The Chinese army listens to the order, two shots!" ”

"Two shots?" Jia Xu was stunned when he heard this, and suspiciously saw that the Chinese army in front of him was lined up.

"Shoot!" Jiang Zhe drank heavily.

The first row of nearly a thousand Cao Army archers suddenly shot out the bows and arrows in their hands, and roared towards Guan Yu and the dozens of people remaining under his command.

"Shoot again!" Jiang Zhe shouted again.

In Jia Xu's moving eyes. Cao Bing in the front row of the Chinese army squatted down to take arrows from the quiver, so that the archers in the back row had their own vision, and another wave of bursts of fire

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Jia Xu was amazed, and his heart suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, if that member Liu Jiang could take the handsome flag in such a fierce rain of arrows, hehe, "Even if the overlord is alive, Lu Bu is resurrected, it can't be done, right?"

Sure enough, even Guan Yu. In the face of such a situation, he was also shocked, and his hands dancing with the Qinglong Knife only felt sore.

If you keep it for a long time, you will lose" is Guan Yu"

"Uh-huh!" Hearing only a muffled sound, Guan Yu had already been hit by an arrow on his left arm, and immediately, he was also hit by two arrows on his body. But even so, he kept riding.

Near,,Near,,

Guan Yu's eyes. Only the huge "Jiang" character on the handsome banner

"Ah" In the shocked voice of the Chinese army Cao Jun, Guan Yu rode his horse and jumped high, regardless of his own safety, and slashed at his Jiangzi handsome banner.

Make move...

The flag guard officer below was dumbfounded, and looked at the Jiangzi flag in astonishment and rolled a few times, and then the cold sweat on his forehead suddenly broke out.

Shuai Qi is small, this is a capital crime, small,

Unlike the frightened flag officer, Guan Yu showed a faint smile on his face, covering his left shoulder and bending over Jiang Zhe. Calling softly, "Guan Yu has seen Situ"

Jia Xu waved his hand, and the two thousand Chinese troops immediately surrounded Guan Yu, bows and arrows facing each other. Disturbing.

Looking at the handsome flag on the ground stained by dust, Jiang Zhe glanced at Guan Yu. Shaking his head, he smiled lightly and said, "I admire Yun Chang's indomitable spirit, however, Yun Chang, don't you think this plan is a bit outdated?" ”

"Obsolete?" Guan Yu was a little puzzled when he heard this, and then suddenly remembered something, turned around and looked behind him, and a faint smile suddenly froze on his face.

I saw that the offensive of more than 10,000 Cao soldiers in the field had not diminished at all."

"It's an ornament, though." stepped forward and slowly picked up the Jiangzi flag on the ground. Jiang Zhe looked at Guan Yu and said with a smile, "But it's also the first handsome flag after I became handsome, tsk, wouldn't it be dirty."

Although before this trip, I put life and death aside, but so" looked at Jiang Zhe patting the dust on the flag with his hand. Guan Yu sighed in his heart, brother, second brother, I'm afraid my fate will stop here!

At the same time, Cao Chun and Zhao Yunju led the tiger and leopard to arrive and stop Guan Yu's group, just waiting for Jiang Zhe's order, surround and kill him, small

I was too tired yesterday, so I slept at four or five o'clock to get up and code words, but I didn't finish the code."

Under the nose of the company's CEO, finish the rest of the yards"

I'm sorry everyone. But going to sleep first has reduced the pressure on me a lot

I'm sorry, I'm sorry")
