Ji Ling witnessed the fiasco of the Yuan army on the south bank, and he didn't expect that his well-designed battle situation of half-crossing and attacking was not only broken by Liu Ze, but also fell into the plan of others' half-crossing attack, nearly 20,000 men and horses were lost on the north bank, full of anger, spit out a mouthful of blood, his eyes were dark, and he almost fell to the ground, but fortunately Yang Hong was on the side. Ji Ling looked at the other side viciously, gritted his teeth and said: "Liu Ze dog thief, I have deceived me many times, I will not share the sky with you!" ”

Yang Hong couldn't help but lament, playing tricks, it seemed that he was too much more tender than Liu Ze. He advised Ji Lingdao: "General Ji, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and tomorrow you can regain your strength and fight again with Liu Ze." ”

Lei Bo Chen Lan led Liao Liao's few remnants of the defeated army to flee back from the north bank, and the wolf bèi came to see Ji Ling unbearably, Ji Ling sighed and asked Yang Hong.

Yang Hong said: "Our army is newly defeated, it is not appropriate to defend this place anymore, it is better to retreat to Xuyi and General Zhang's army and then calculate." ”

Ji Ling thought about it, so he ordered the soldiers and horses on the hour, and looked at Xuyi and left. Just walked halfway, but saw a group of people and horses coming from the east, and it was Zhang Xun's banner. Ji Ling asked why in surprise, and Zhang Xun said the details. It turned out that when Ji Ling and Liu Ze were in the Huaishui battle, Liu Ze sent Tai Shici and Gao Ran to cross the Huaishui from the detour to the east, and launched an attack on Zhang Xun's troops who surrounded Xuyi.

For Ji Ling, who had just experienced the defeat of Huaishui, this was undoubtedly worse, Liu Ze on the north bank of Huaishui could cross the river at any time, and the enemy of Xuyi would also move westward, and the Yuan army, which had suffered three defeats in a row, faced a two-way siege. The situation is difficult, and the situation is dangerous.

"General Ji, the siege of Xuyi has been lifted, and it is meaningless for our army to stick to the south bank of Huaishui again, not to mention that if Liu Ze attacks from two ways, our army is in danger. It is better to retreat to Huailing, defend according to the city, and then try a good strategy. Yang Hong suggested.

Although Ji Ling was unwilling, he also knew that if he didn't retreat, he would definitely fall into a desperate situation. It is to clean up the remnants of the army. Retreat to Huailing, prepare to defend the city, and wait for reinforcements.

Liu Ze crossed the Huaishui River and joined the Xuyi army. Arrived at the city of Huailing. Confront Ji Ling and set up a village.

Zhang Fei after Liu Ze left. A few days ago, I also kept my promise, didn't drink alcohol and didn't make trouble, and Xuzhou should do miscellaneous things. They were all handed over to Chen Deng and Sun Gan to take care of, and he was in charge of Xuzhou's city defense affairs, and he would inspect all parts of the city gate every day. After a few days like this, Zhang Fei got tired of it, thinking that Guan Yu's generals were fighting on the front line in Xuyi, and he would stay in Xuzhou like a stuffy gourd to defend the city, you said that such a big Xuzhou city, can it be lost or run away?

After staying for a few days, Zhang Fei's mouth was a little faded out, but it was not good to drink in violation of the order, when he was depressed, the battle report from the front line came back, Liu Ze set up an ambush in the middle of the night, and beat Ji Ling, who came to sneak attack, and wiped out more than 10,000 enemies, Zhang Fei grinned happily, the eldest brother won the victory, this is the victory of Xuzhou, and a banquet should be set up to celebrate! Yes, a banquet was set up to celebrate, Zhang Fei's mouth was full of gluttony, and he planned to summon all the officials of Xuzhou Mansion to set up a banquet in the mansion to congratulate the victory ahead.

Chen Deng looked at Zhang Fei and frowned, "How did the lord order the three generals before leaving?" ”

Zhang Fei said disapprerovingly: "I promised my eldest brother not to drink for no reason, but the good news came ahead, how could I not celebrate with wine when such good news came." Do you think it's time to celebrate the victory of the Lord? Zhang Fei turned around and asked a few low-level officials next to him.

How dare those low-level officials go against Zhang Fei's wishes, and only promised: "Liu Yuanjun won the first battle, and he should be congratulated." ”

Zhang Fei laughed and said: "There is a happy event today, when you make an exception, everyone is drunk today, no one is allowed to drink again tomorrow, whoever dares to break the vows, I will be punished by military law!" But it must be drunk today, and no one is exempt. ”

Under the pretext of celebrating, Zhang Fei insisted on feasting, and Chen Deng was helpless.

The officials sat down, Zhang Fei drank the cup painfully, and he was happy in his heart, and drank until he was drunk, Zhang Fei came down to the hall, clinked glasses with the officials one by one, and drank until he was slightly drunk and staggered.

When he went to Cao Bao for wine, Zhang Fei saw that the wine glass in front of Cao Bao was still full, and he couldn't help but glare, and said in a rough voice: "What do you mean, don't give the third master face, right?" ”

Cao Bao said: "A certain precept from heaven never drinks." ”

Zhang Fei laughed and said, "Joke! You're also going to kill a man right away, why can't you drink? I see that you look down on your third master, just now I said, everyone here has to be drunk, how can you be an exception? You have to eat this glass of wine today, and you have to eat it if you don't eat it! ”

Cao Bao bowed and said, "It's not that you don't give face to the three generals, it's really impossible to drink, please forgive the three generals." ”

Zhang Fei snorted and said: "I see that you want to toast and not eat and punish wine, and you don't know how to lift, if you don't eat this glass of wine today, see how I treat you!" ”

Cao Bao is also a soldier Cao Cao, and his position is not under Zhang Fei, just because Zhang Fei is Liu Ze's righteous brother, and he doesn't look at the face of the monk and the face of the Buddha, Cao Bao didn't bother with him. ”

Zhang Fei angrily slammed the wine glass to the ground and shouted, "You fucking don't take the big brother to crush me!" Cao Bao, don't think that others don't count the bad things you did, you married your daughter to Lu Bu, what is Ande's intention? ”

Cao Bao's face was red and white, and he said angrily: "What if Cao Mou marries a daughter to Lu Wenhou?" At this time, Cao has already sued Liu Yuanjun, and the wedding day is still Liu Yuanjun's personal marriage to the Lord, and the three generals asked what his intentions were, but I want to ask the three generals, what did Cao do to commit adultery in the hands of the three generals? ”

Zhang Fei was very drunk at this time, but after he was drunk, his voice became louder and his temper became even more explosive, and he pointed at Cao Bao and shouted: "Cao Bao, can you hide that little bit of hellish eyes from your grandfather Zhang?" When you marry a daughter to Lu Bu, it is clear that you want to collude with Lu Bu, harbor evil intentions, and have no intentions, sue you, with your master, you don't want to turn the sky upside down! ”

Cao Bao's face was pale, Zhang Fei's words were too ugly, he got up angrily and said: "Third general, you are so insulted, I don't care about you below, wait for Liu Yuanjun to come back and let him decide!" Leave! As he spoke, he turned around and was about to leave.

Zhang Fei was furious, and this Cao Bao left angrily, obviously not giving him face, so he pulled out a leather whip from his waist - others usually have either a shoulder knife or a sword around their waists, but Zhang Fei has one more thing than others, and often sticks a horse whip behind his waist - and pulls it down fiercely on Cao Bao's back.

There was a slight conflict between the words of the two, everyone thought that Zhang Fei was drunk and didn't care, but seeing that the two looked different, especially after Zhang Fei dropped the wine glass, Chen Deng hurriedly rushed up and wanted to pull the two of them apart, but saw Cao Bao leave the scene in a negative mood, Zhang Fei was angry and wanted to whip Cao Bao with a whip, secretly screaming that it was not good, and shouted urgently: "Three generals can't!" At the same time, he took a step forward and blocked behind Cao Bao.

Zhang Fei might have put away the whip when he was sober, but now he was a little drunk and in a trance, and he was extremely heavy in anger, although he looked at the figure in front of him for a moment, but the whip still went down. Since it was summer, Chen Deng was only wearing a single-shirt official uniform, and this whip directly shredded the single-shirt, and a crimson blood stain reflected on Chen Deng's back.

There was a crisp sound of "horn", and everyone's eyes in the hall immediately focused here, looking at the whip in Zhang Fei's hand and the whip marks on Chen Deng's body, everyone was dumbfounded.

This whip Zhang Fei made it full of strength, Chen Dengzhi felt a huge pain on his back, he stumbled two steps, almost fell to the ground, or Cao Bao reached out to support him, Cao Bao didn't expect Zhang Fei to really dare to do it, and he didn't expect Chen Deng to actually accept this whip for him, he was quite moved, and said: "Brother Yuanlong, you ......"

Chen Deng endured the hot pain on his back, and reluctantly laughed and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

Zhang Feijiu also woke up most of the time, and when he saw that he had hit the wrong person and injured Chen Deng, he couldn't help but have a black line, and said in a snort: "Mr. Yuanlong, how are you ...... Ay! ”

Chen Deng said to Zhang Fei: "Before the lord left, he repeatedly told me to advise the three generals to drink less alcohol and not to punish their subordinates. ”

Zhang Fei stomped his feet and said: "Oh, Mr. Yuanlong, how could I beat you, if I hadn't protected Cao Bao's guy, how could I have injured you by mistake!" Come on, I'll give you a compensatory situation. ”

Chen Deng said: "This whip is nothing, as long as the three generals can keep in mind the lord's instructions, don't drink and make mistakes again." ”

Zhang Feinuo agreed, and the banquet finally broke up. Zhang Fei wanted to order someone to treat Chen Deng's injuries, but Chen Deng repeatedly said that he was out of the way and went home on his own.

After going back, I had just taken the medicine and changed into a new dress, and I heard the report from the doorman that Cao Bao was visiting. Chen Deng ordered someone to welcome Cao Bao into the middle hall.

Cao Bao came in and saluted: "Today, at the banquet, Brother Yuanlong received it on behalf of Cao, and Cao really didn't want to go, so he specially prepared some small gifts to visit Brother Yuanlong." ”

Chen Deng said: "Brother Cao is too polite, such a trivial matter, why worry about it." ”

"Brother Yuanlong's injuries ......," Cao Bao greeted with concern.

Chen Deng smiled slightly and said, "I've already taken medicine, it's not in the way, it's not in the way." Brother Cao, please. ”

The guest of honor was seated, and the servant served tea. Cao Bao sighed lightly and said, "Brother Yuanlong is loyal to Liu Yuanjun, but he suffered such an unwarranted disaster, which is sighing. ”

"The three generals have a violent temper, and they are drunk and immoral, and a whip is nothing." Chen Deng waved his hand. (To be continued......)
