Song Xian pretended to hesitate and said: "Enlighten the lord, there will be something in the end, I don't know whether to talk about it or not?" ”

"If you have something to say, let it go!" Lu Bu is in a bad mood right now.

Song Xian glanced at Zhang Liao beside him, and said in a hesitant manner: "In front of the two armies, the last general saw that General Zhang and Liu Ze's subordinate general Guan Yu had a lot of verbal exchanges, greeted each other, and chatted for a long time, but they were far apart, and the last general didn't know what they said. Later, General Zhang fought with him, and he was defeated after only more than 30 rounds, and the last general was also deeply surprised...... With General Zhang's martial arts, he can't take Guan Yu's thirty swords...... As soon as our army was defeated, Guan Yu took advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, and our army could not resist the enemy, so we lost the pass. ”

Lu Bu's eyebrows couldn't help but rise, his face was like frost, and he said in a deep voice: "What you said is true? ”

Song Xian hurriedly bowed his head and said: "The last general is telling the truth, he doesn't dare to talk nonsense, the lord doesn't believe it, you can ask General Zhang." The last general only said that the situation at that time was based on the facts, and he had no intention of framing General Zhang, and the last general was also willing to vouch for his personality, and General Zhang was loyal and had no different ambitions. ”

Everyone present looked at Song Xian inexplicably, just now his words clearly had the intention of reporting Zhang Liao for collaborating with the enemy, but at the end, he came to use his personality to guarantee Zhang Liao's loyalty, which is quite a bit of a snake to add to the taste, with the guarantee of personality, how much is your personality worth? Everyone couldn't help but be disdainful.

Lu Bu's face was pale, he looked at Zhang Liao, and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Liao, what else do you have to say?" ”

Zhang Liao couldn't help frowning, what Song Xian said was true, but how to listen to it is not taste. Zhang Liao did have a verbal exchange with Guan Yu, and it was true that he was defeated and retreated after thirty rounds with Guan Yu, but he had no intention of collaborating with the enemy, and he Zhang Liao was definitely above board, so Zhang Liao said calmly: "What General Song said is true, and the last general is willing to bear the responsibility of the defeated army." Zhang Liao is a frank gentleman, since it is what he has done, he naturally cannot deny it, but he ignores the lethality in Song Xian's words, and Song Xian's words are true. But it was an ambush at the big joint. Things that are beneficial to Zhang Liao, such as Zhang Liao's rejection of Guan Yu in words, such as the fire in the city, Zhang Liao had to retreat, etc., but he did not mention a word, which undoubtedly made people feel that Zhang Liao was suspected of collaborating with the enemy.

A murderous intent flashed in Lu Bu's eyes, and he shot a few cases. shouted: "Someone." Push Zhang Liao out of Yuanmen and behead him! ”

Everyone was shocked. Gao Shun and Zhang Liao had a good personal relationship, and immediately stepped forward and said: "The lord is slow, and Shun Su knows that Wenyuan is loyal." There is absolutely no possibility of collaborating with the enemy, please check it out with the lord. ”

Lu Bu snorted coldly and said: "The facts are all there, why do you need to distinguish again, Zhang Liao collaborated with the enemy in battle, causing the loss of Yishui Pass, and the crime should be punished!" ”

Gao Shun looked at Zhang Liao and asked him to quickly explain to Lu Bu that although Zhang Liao was not afraid of life and death, he was so confused that he was put on the hat of a collaborator and a traitor and executed, and he was just as unwilling. Zhang Liao arched his hand and said in a deep voice: "If the lord beheads Liao for the crime of losing Yishui Pass, Liao will die without regrets, but if the lord thinks that Liao has betrayed the lord and surrendered to the enemy, Liao will die blindly!" ”

"What a dead one! Zhang Liao, let me ask you, when you are about to fight, why do you want to talk to Guan Yu, don't you know that in front of the two armies, only the enemy is old for no reason? Lu Bu asked with a gloomy face.

Zhang Liao was slightly stunned, he did talk to Guan Yu for a long time, and Guan Yu's words were insulting to Lu Bu, how could Zhang Liao say these words, he had to say: "Although Liao and Guan Yu have the friendship of fellow villagers, Liao will never dare to follow his own selfish and forget his public affairs, and do things that betray the Lord and collaborate with the enemy. ”

"A few words? Jokes, who can prove it to you? Lu Bu sneered.

Zhang Liao was speechless, there were only two people against him and Guan Yu at that time, and the others were far away, and they couldn't hear what they said at all, how to prove it?

Lu Bu's face became more and more gloomy, and he snorted coldly: "A certain has also fought with Guan Yu, with your ability, even if you can't defeat him, it is impossible to fight for thirty rounds, it is clear that the two of you have planned before, and then you fled in defeat, Guan Yu took advantage of the situation to cover up and captures Yishui Pass." Zhang Liao, someone has already reported to Ben Hou that you have a close personal relationship with Guan Yu, Ben Hou still can't believe it, I can't imagine that you actually colluded with thieves and generals to surrender to the enemy, do you want to cut off Ben Hou's head to ask Liu Ze for merit and reward, in exchange for your glory and wealth? ”

Zhang Liao couldn't help but be stunned, this Lu Bu's imagination is too rich, the lord suspects that the ministers will die, Zhang Liao can't help but pass a trace of sadness in his heart, Zhang Liao is a short-spoken and introverted person, sighed, and said: "Since the lord has decided that Liao is the person who betrays the lord, Liao has nothing to say, but please give a quick knife to a good time." ”

Gao Shun was shocked and admonished: "The lord can't, Wen Yuan has followed the lord to the south, fought in the north and south, and has made countless military exploits, and please remember Wen Yuan's past merits, forgive him for his death!" ”

The generals also stepped forward to intercede for Zhang Liao, Lu Bu hesitated, and Chen Gong also persuaded: "Wenyuan collaborated with the enemy, there is no conclusive evidence, but Song Xian's words cannot prove it, if the lord wants to execute him, it will inevitably make the generals of the battalions resentful. ”

Lu Bu pondered for a moment, thinking that Chen Gong's words were very reasonable, Liu Ze's army was pressing, and he couldn't make the army unstable at this time, but Lu Bu had already determined that Zhang Liao was suspected of collaborating with the enemy, and it was inevitable that Zhang Liao would not be able to be reused.

"Since there are generals who plead, this marquis has exempted you from the death penalty, but the living crime is still difficult to forgive, come, drag Zhang Liao out, severely punish two hundred military sticks, remove the position of the general Lang, spread the camps, if there are those who dare to collaborate with the enemy and plot rebellion, they will be severely punished!"

The two executed Chinese soldiers had already taken Zhang Liao hostage, and Gao Shun wanted to persuade him again, but Lu Bu had already retreated.

After being beaten with two hundred military sticks, Zhang Liao was beaten to the point that his skin was open, and the flesh and blood on his entire buttocks and back were blurred, but Zhang Liao always clenched his teeth and did not snort, and all the sergeants wept when they saw it.

Liu Ze's army came very quickly, and soon arrived at Tancheng and camped twenty miles southwest of Tancheng. When the news came, there was an uproar in Xuzhou City, and Lu Bu urgently summoned the generals to discuss the strategy of retreating from the enemy.

"The soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, and the last general is willing to fight Liu Ze to the death for the vanguard!" Gao Shun took the lead in stepping forward and took the initiative to ask for help.

Lu Bu nodded approvingly: "Wentong Yongkou's three armies are unstoppable, I am very relieved!" ”

Cao Bao was worried, and said: "Liu Ze's troops are many generals, this time the big victory over Yuan Shu in Xuyi's northward return, must not be underestimated, it is better to stick to Tancheng, Tancheng city wall is tall, Cao Cao twice attacked Tancheng and failed to succeed, Wen Hou only needs to hold the city, Liu Ze must retreat when the food is exhausted." "After staying under Liu Ze for a period of time, Cao Bao has a very clear understanding of the strength of Liu Ze's army, and Lu Buyong is brave, but his army is compared with Liu Ze's Baisheng Division, whether it is the suzhì of individual soldiers or the overall combat strength of Cheng Dù, there is a big gap, and it is naturally much safer to defend the city than the field front.

Chen Gong also said: "The only way to do this is to stick to Tancheng first, find out the reality of Liu Ze's army, and wait for General Wei Xu to send reinforcements from Xiaopei before making a decision." ”

Chen Deng had a different opinion, and said: "Although Wenhou has Tancheng, it is only one county, and the three counties in the south of Xuzhou are still in Liu Ze's hands, but I am afraid that Liu Ze has not run out of food, and our army has run out of food, and there are no reinforcements outside Tancheng, so we can only sit and wait for death." Although Liu Ze came victorious, he doubled his way and fought many battles, but he never had to rest, and his military strength was extremely exhausted. If we can win the first victory in one go, we will definitely be able to defeat Liu Ze's spirit and boost the morale of our army, and the situation in Xuzhou will definitely be completely reversed. ”

Lu Bu was overjoyed and said: "Yuanlong's words are exactly what I want!" Pass the order, order the military horses on the hour, and fight to the death with Liu Ze tomorrow! ”

Chen Gong and Cao Bao were unhappy.

At this time, the Chinese officer came to report: "Qi Wenhou, the enemy general Guan Hai is scolding outside the city, foul language, unbearable, all the troops are angry, and they all ask Wen Hou for battle." ”

Lu Bu stood up and said angrily: "Liu Ze deceived people too much, and the troops listened to the order and immediately went out of the city to meet the battle." ”

Chen Gong was faintly worried, and persuaded: "Our army is not prepared at this time, and if we leave the city in a hurry, I am afraid that it will be taken advantage of by the enemy." The lord might as well prepare first, and it's not too late to fight again tomorrow. ”

Lu Bu didn't listen to Chen Gong's words, and said proudly: "When Benhou was dominating the world, Liu Ze was just living in the plains, being a little Taishou, if it wasn't for Benhou attacking Yanzhou, how could he have the possibility of leading Xuzhou, his people just relied on a little luck, and there was no real talent to work hard, so what was there to fear?" The art of war is cloudy, one drum and one blow, then decline, three and exhaustion, and fear of battle, will not demoralize completely? "Lu Bu has finished draping, the red rabbit horse under his crotch, the halberd in the palm of his hand, and led the troops out of the city with a lofty spirit.

At this time, Guan Hai scolded outside the city, and the female members of the Lu family within eighteen generations were basically greeted by Guan Hai and his soldiers, and the words of greeting were endless, and almost none of the members of the first generation were the same, Lu Bu had already led the army out of the city and lined up the wild goose formation, and Guan Hai was still scolding there.

"Yohe, Lu Da shrunken turtle finally stretched out the turtle's head, hahaha, ahh It's wrong, it should be Lu Ding Dong Turtle, the third surname turtle slave! Everyone, you have to be careful, this Wang Ba can bite people, catch whoever bites, no skin, no face, no shame, any despicable and shameless dirty things can be done, there is really no way to find the same pair of Wang Ba in the world! ”

Lu Bu's face was pale, after all, his subordinates couldn't find a broken household that could scold Guan Hai so vulgarly and everything, naturally no one dared to scold Guan Hai like this, Lu Bu was extremely angry, and shouted: "Who is going to cut off the tongue of this noisy thing?" ”

Gao Shun was about to fight, Cao Xing had already shouted, Pegasus came out, and took Guan Hai straight with his gun. (To be continued......)
