Chapter 205: Counting the Water Pass

In the early morning of the second day, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei went into battle, Liu Bei wrapped a scarf on his head, wore armor, wielded a double-strand sword, and rode a spotted-maned horse; Looking at Zhang Fei in a military uniform, holding a snake spear in his hand, the momentum is like a tiger, Guan Yu went out to Luoyang City to see off the two, seeing that both of them are majestic and very spiritual, and said to the two of them: "I am waiting for your good news in Luoyang!" ”

Liu Bei then said: "Don't worry! Waiting for our triumphant good news! After Liu Bei finished speaking, the prancing horse and Zhang Fei went straight to Bishui Pass.

At this time, Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu are playing chess games at the pass, since the last defeat lost the Tiger Pass, Zhang Ji did not dare to use force easily, now he only has 30,000 horses left, guarding such a lonely city, Zhang Ji does not dare to have a different picture, at this time he temporarily regards this Bishui Pass as a place to live, he is also waiting for the opportunity, what time?

The first is to wait for Chang'an to send troops to attack Luoyang, and he also launched an attack on Luoyang from the direction of Bishui Pass, once again causing Luoyang to be flanked by the east and west, causing pressure on Luoyang, helping Li Wei's army to successfully attack the city, and holding the soldiers and horses of Luoyang; The second opportunity was that he waited for the arrival of the Kwantung Army, waiting for the Kwantung Coalition Army to sweep Luoyang again, and then he would surrender to the Kwantung Army, and then attack Luoyang with the Kwantung Army.

This Zhang Ji, as Dong Zhuo's general, is Dong Zhuo's sworn friend, Dong Zhuo was killed by Guan Yu, and his master died at the hands of Guan Yu, this kind of blood feud makes him unable to succumb to Guan Yu no matter what, and he can't defect to Guan Yu, now Guan Yu is his biggest enemy of Zhang Ji, and now he can only wait and see the opportunity, because Guan Yu was wounded by an arrow. Zhang Ji thought that he couldn't do anything about the current Bishui Pass, so he put his mind at ease and recreation. When he had nothing to do, he played chess games with his nephew Zhang Xiu to pass the time, but what he never expected was that at this time, Luoyang had already attacked them.

Liu Bei and Zhang Fei set off from Luoyang in one go, and went straight to Bishui Pass. The two of them were planning while hurrying, and Liu Bei said to Zhang Fei: "Zhang Ji retreated to the guards of Bishui Pass, thinking that the direction of Luoyang would not take them lightly, and they must be unprepared, so we suddenly attacked and caught him off guard!" ”

"Brother thinks well, this is a good way, but this belongs to taking advantage of his unpreparedness to attack, although there is a chance of victory, but there is also a big price, after all, Bishui Pass is also a solid pass. I've got a clever idea! Zhang Fei rolled his eyes and said.

When Liu Bei heard this, he said: "What a clever plan, let's hear it!" ”

"Big brother, imagine who we are? The previous time was just an unknown young general in the camp of the Kwantung Army, Zhang Ji didn't know who we were at all, he didn't know our relationship with the second brother at all, and we only arrived in Luoyang for two days to attack Bishui Pass, even if our relationship with the second brother is public, it will take time to reach Zhang Ji's ears, so we are two strangers to Zhang Ji, in the battle of Tiger Pass, I went to fight Huaxiong, Zhang Xiu should know me. But I won't recognize the big brother, in their eyes we are the Kwantung Army! Zhang Fei said Liu Beidao.

Liu Bei realized when he heard this: "What does the third brother mean to use a counter-plot?" ”

"That's right, brother! I pondered it this way, Zhang Ji, as Dong Zhuo's general, attacked Luoyang before, which means that he wants to avenge Dong Zhuo. There is no opposition to the second brother at all, and we came to Bishui Pass as the Kwantung Army, will he Zhang Ji regard us as enemies? I don't think so. If we come as the Kwantung Army, if Zhang Ji has any concerns about us, we can explain the situation with the interests and the disadvantages, explain the reason, and pull him together to attack Luoyang. Now Zhang Ji's biggest enemy is Guan Yu, and he hates Guan Yu for being better than the Kwantung Army. If he wants to take revenge, he can't do it with his strength, our joining will suddenly increase his strength, with such a strength he can launch an offensive in the east of Luoyang City, he Zhang Ji will definitely consider our entry into the city, once this joint is opened, as long as we enter the city, everything will be easy to do! Zhang Fei analyzed.

When Liu Bei heard this, he worried: "Our soldier's clothes are dressed up, will Zhang Ji believe it?" ”

"Let's just say that it's Ma Teng's subordinates, they are all Xiliang soldiers and horses, and besides, these horses assigned by the second brother are all from the previous guards in Luoyang, how can he Zhang Ji recognize them?" Zhang Fei explained.

Liu Bei nodded after hearing this: "Sure enough! We'll save a lot less effort! ”

In order to avoid arousing Zhang Ji's suspicion, the two decided to make a detour directly to the south gate of Bishui Pass, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei led the army day and night, and at noon the next day, the army rested, and arrived at the south gate of Bishui Pass in the afternoon

The sudden appearance of Liu Bei and Zhang Fei shocked Zhang Ji on the pass, and Zhang Ji couldn't help but wonder: Guan Yu was injured by an arrow and is still recuperating in Luoyang, and Zhang Liao does not dare to attack Bishui Pass easily, what kind of people is this? Did the Kwantung Army make a comeback so quickly? Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu came to the south gate to inspect and saw the flags swaying under the city, the armor was numerous, and the two big flags on the top of their heads were written with the words "Liu" and "Zhang" respectively, and then the number of people was only more than 10,000 people, and then the soldiers and horses were dressed in the clothes of the Xiliang soldiers, Zhang Ji then asked Liu Bei: "Where are you soldiers and horses?" Dare to come to Bishui Pass to call for battle? ”

"This is General Zhang Jizhang, right? I'm a subordinate of the Kwantung Army! Liu Bei replied.

Zhang Ji couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Ma Tengbu? Dare to ask the name of the general? ”

Liu Bei then said: "I am Liu Bei, I am a branch of the Ma Teng Department!" ”

"Why is the general here?" Zhang Ji said after hearing this.

Liu Bei continued: "I want to discuss something with the general!" ”

"What's the matter?" Zhang Ji said.

Liu Bei continued: "I am a branch of the Kwantung Army, I hope the general can make it convenient after being defeated by Guan Yu before, I learned that the general's master Dong Gong was killed by Guan Yu, and now this Guan Yu is our common enemy, if the general believes it, we can join forces together to fight the enemy!" I don't know what the general wants? As far as I know, the general was forced to lose the Tiger Pass before, and if we join forces, we can hopefully recapture the Tiger Pass, as long as we reoccupy these two passes, revenge is just around the corner! As far as I know, the Kwantung Army will not be long in coming, as long as we hold on and wait for reinforcements to arrive, then we can come to Luoyang City, if we lose these two passes, it will be much more difficult to recapture them, the general should think about it! ”

Liu Bei's words Zhang Ji couldn't help but think: what this person said is not unreasonable, the previous time he was the enemy of the Kwantung Army was because the Kwantung Army was pressing Luoyang, and the ruler of Luoyang was Dong Zhuo, and the two sides had a grudge for this, and now Dong Zhuo was killed by Guan Yu, the ruler of Luoyang became Guan Yu, the spearhead of the Kwantung Army was directed at Guan Yu, Guan Yu was also his biggest enemy, based on this, his goal and that of the Kwantung Army were the same, so if the combined forces were bound to cause a kind of strength, "everyone gathered firewood and the flame was high" Everyone can only defeat Guan Yu if they work together, if they do their own thing, it will inevitably cause loneliness, and if they don't get it, they will be broken by Guan Yu, this person is reasonable, and he has also thought about it before, and he really can't go to the Kwantung Army, and now the Kwantung Army is coming to the door, isn't this unwanted?

However, Zhang Ji, as a veteran, still has an extra heart, and he asked Zhang Xiu on the side: "Do you recognize these two people?" ”

Zhang Xiu opened his eyes and tried his best to look at the city, he looked left and right for a while and said: "It seems that I have seen it before, the one who spoke just now is a little familiar, and the one next to him is the person who killed Huaxiong in the battle of Tiger Prison Pass!" ”

Zhang Ji was surprised when he heard this, and asked, "What is this person's surname?" ”

"This person should be surnamed Zhang Mingfei Yide! is a tiger general of the Kwantung Army, who is good at force, and once killed Huaxiong drunk! Zhang Xiu replied.

Zhang Ji said: "I have heard of this person's name, since he has a name and a surname, it will be easy to do!" Zhang Ji then said to Liu Bei under the city: "Who is General Liu's side? ”

"This is my deputy Zhang Fei, Zhang Yide is also!" Liu Bei replied.

When Zhang Ji heard this, he said excitedly: "This is the person who killed Huaxiong, and the road is really narrow!" I didn't expect to meet here, and today I will definitely avenge General Huaxiong! ”

Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei after hearing this, Zhang Fei's eyes rolled around, and gave Liu Bei a look, which meant to tell Liu Bei not to take it seriously, Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei and thought for a while, and soon calmed down, saying Zhang Jidao: "General Zhang was all misunderstood before, is it better to settle the dispute, besides, now is not the time for us to fight this, the enemy in front of us is Guan Yu, if we fight then it is Guan Yu who sits and watches the benefits of the fisherman, the general will not know this righteousness, right?" ”

"General Liu, don't take it seriously, I'm afraid that I will fall for someone else's trick! Since the general is sincerely friendly with us, how can I, Zhang Ji, sacrifice the big festival and take the small righteousness? Since the general is sincere, then wait at the city gate first, and my nephew Zhang Xiu and I will go down to the city immediately to greet the general! Zhang Ji beckoned Zhang Xiu on the side to go down to the city, and the two reminded Zhang Xiu while walking: "Bring weapons in case of accidents!" ”

"Uncle, rest assured, it'll be fine!" Zhang Xiu replied. The two soon went down to the city

Liu Bei saw that the two of them came down to the city and then gave Zhang Fei a look, Zhang Fei suddenly understood, the two of them ran to the city gate of Bishui, Zhang Ji took Zhang Xiu down the city, the two did not walk but stepped on the war horse Zhang Xiu held the tiger head golden gun and followed Zhang Ji to the city gate, Zhang Ji signaled the guards guarding the gate to open the city gate, and soon only heard a "squeak" to open, the two immediately went out of the city but saw Liu Bei and Zhang Fei were already waiting there, Zhang Ji stepped forward and immediately said to Liu Bei: "General Liu will be fortunate to be lucky!"
