Chapter 269: The Verge (Part I)

Xu Ji appeared in Nanyang, Jingzhou!

The news spread throughout Jingzhou as if it had grown wings. Of course, this is the result Wang Yun wants, since he learned that "Lejin" is Xu Ji, he has not delayed in following Jia Xu's opinion.

And Liu Biao had already received Wang Yun's letter, but he was just suspicious of the letter, who knew that the news was true, and he couldn't help but be a little caught off guard. Hurriedly asked Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue.

The two have a very consistent opinion, that is, to send someone to hunt down Xu Ji. Of course, this is done in secret.

However, Kuai Liang expressed his doubts about the authenticity of the news, and it was not until someone brought a horse chopping knife from Nanyang that had been broken and engraved with the words "Xu Ji" on the handle, that Kuai Yue was relieved.

Of course, they didn't know that this knife was the result of Li Yan's deliberate abandonment of the wilderness.

Of course, this Xu Ji was pretended by Chen Zhi, and Chen Zhi also left signs of his escape to Jiangxia County, posing as if he wanted to cross Jiangxia, break into the Lujiang River, go to Danyang, enter Guangling, and return to Yanzhou.

With such an obvious sign, where can't the people in Jingzhou see it?

Therefore, Kuai Yue let out a long breath and said: "It seems that Xu Ji is undoubted, because the Yanzhou army has a military system: from the commander to the soldier, each weapon has its own name, and if the weapon is lost, it will be punished quite severely." Therefore, the Yanzhou army takes great care of its weapons, and Xu Ji's broken knife should be Xu Ji's personal belongings, because it has been broken, so it will be abandoned in the wilderness, but he didn't expect it to be discovered so easily. It seems that the sky is dead. ”

Along with the two Kuai Yue brothers, there is also Liu Biao's cheap uncle Cai Mao.

Cai Mao listened to the reconnaissance results of the fine work sent by his side, and couldn't help but smile and said, "God really help me, Xu Ji is now in front of me." If we don't take the opportunity to get rid of him, I'm afraid we will all feel sorry for ourselves! ”

Kuai Yue glanced at him. solemnly said: "Lord Cai Mao, don't ignore Xu Ji and others, this person's martial arts are world-famous." At the time of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Xu Ji had already begun to join the army, although no one said how good he was, but in the chaos of the army, he was able to come to this day at a young age, the so-called 'under the fame, there will be no vain soldiers', Yanzhou military god is not in vain, don't think that now Xu Ji will be captured single-handedly. ”

Cai Mao said indifferently: "Of course I know this, but my Jingzhou is a place full of talents. Where can the Yellow Turban Army and other grass cowards be compared? Not to mention the convenience of people, Huang Zhong under Han Xuan's kid has the courage of ten thousand people, and with Huang Zhong here, Xu Ji will definitely die. ”

Kuai Liang said: "I think Nanyang Li Yan is also a character, this kid is still alert, and he will withdraw immediately as soon as he sees a change in Chang'an City, so that we will not appear passive with Wang Yun." I think I'll leave things in Nanyang to Li Yan to do, how about it? ”

Liu Biao nodded, but Cai Mao snorted coldly. Expressing dissatisfaction, he originally wanted to hand over Nanyang's affairs to his younger brother Cai He to manage, but Kuai Liang had a very high status in Liu Biao's mind, and Cai Mao certainly couldn't say anything.

The officialdom of Jingzhou is clearly divided. The military attachΓ© was headed by the three brothers Cai Mao, and the civil officials were respected by the two Kuai Yue brothers. Liu Biao's talent is not bad, and he understands both aspects very well.

Kuai Yue pondered for a moment. Only then did he speak: "Xu Ji, we must be killed, the question is how do we operate this matter." I thought we had to do it in the dark. Because we are not completely sure that Xu Ji will be killed. ”

Cai Mao was about to open her mouth, and Kuai Yue smiled: "This matter is obvious. Lu Bu is the number one military general in the world, and he can't keep Xu Ji, although he is under the protection of his personal guard general Chen Zhi, but this is enough to show Chen Zhi's ability, not to mention that now we have not yet known whether Xu Ji is still Chen Zhi by his side, no matter how powerful Huang Zhong is, it is only Lu Bu's level, where can we be sure to keep him? In case Xu Ji escapes and knows what we are doing today, how will he let us go in the future? If Xu Ji doesn't die for a day, we won't be able to admit what we are plotting today. ”

After a pause, he said, "Hmph! Wang Yun thought that we couldn't see his plan to kill people with a knife, but that's fine, I guess now Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu must also know about Xu Ji's disappearance, and the lord might as well confide in the two of them the news of Xu Ji's appearance in Nanyang, the two of them must be in a hurry, and they will definitely send helpers. In this way, our plan to hunt down Xu Ji will also be a little more successful. As for our manpower, of course, we are chasing and killing Xu Ji under the banner of these two people, and this stolen iron will definitely be carried on Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. ”

Kuai Liang nodded and said: "This is very true, Yuan Shu and I Jingzhou have been at war for a long time, and they have caused countless troubles to my Jingzhou, otherwise the Jiangxia horse thieves have already been wiped out by General Huang Zu, where will there be today's situation?" ”

Liu Biao nodded and said: "Naturally, Yuan Shu and I will not let him go, and Yuan Shao is not a good person, it is a good thing to give him some trouble now, at least in exchange for the safety of my Jingzhou outside." ”

Kuai Yue smiled suddenly: "Why doesn't the lord raise soldiers and horses, garrison Hongnong County, and wait and see what happens?" ”

"Oh?" Liu Biao became interested and said with a smile: "Why don't you talk about it?" ”

Hearing this, Kuai Yue replied in a deep voice: "My Jingzhou is a place where soldiers must fight, if Jingzhou is peaceful, it can be prosperous, if it is a foreign enemy, it will be dangerous." Therefore, my Jingzhou needs to have a place to stick to be fundamental, and now Yangzhou has risen Yuan Shu Liu Xuan's dispute, and there are countless places that are trying to do their own thing, which is not for my Jingzhou. Yizhou Liu Yan and the main bus are evil, and they are even more hopeless. Only the north is a good policy, and now that the wind and rain in the Central Plains have fallen, it is the time for the heroes of the lord to use force. ”

Seeing Liu Biao's eyes shining, Kuai Yue said eloquently: "The north is strong, but Wang Yun, Niu Fu, Xu Ji, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Tao Qian and others. Wang Yun had just become the regent, and stabilizing internal affairs was his goal, and if he used troops, he would at best target Hanzhong. Niu Fu is secretly competing with Wang Yun and Xu Ji, the tripartite war is about to break out, I expect Niu Fu will not last, most of the soldiers under his command are from Liangzhou, and they will definitely go west, bypassing Chang'an and returning to Liangzhou. At this time, if our army goes north to Hongnong County, it can be used as a benefit for fishermen. This is one of them. ”

After a pause, he said: "Yuan Shao Yuan Shu is called a brother." is really an enemy, and Xu Ji's strong enemy is in the north. The two can still work together, and now Xu Ji is out. Fate is on the verge of death, the two will fall apart, Yuzhou is in turmoil, just around the corner, the lord of the army Hongnong, can be protected with my Jiangxia into a horn of the momentum, over time, to level Yuzhou, it is not known. ”

looked at Liu Biao's thoughtful look. Kuai Yue said again: "Xu Ji is homeless, and we blocked the news of him in Jingzhou, just imagine, there is no one in charge of Yanji Erzhou, and it will change over time, Guo Jia is deep and unpredictable, Gao Shun supports the army and respects himself, Zhen forgets his righteousness when he sees profit, Zhang Yan is unruly, and Chen Zhi is nowhere to be found. This is the five difficulties of the two states. Although there are the names of Chen Zhijian, Bocai's fierceness, Gao Shun's bravery, and Xun's two sages, these two states are not guaranteed. If the lord doesn't take advantage of the chaos to get a piece of the pie, how can he be worthy of Xu Ji's hard wandering and escape in my Jingzhou? ”

Everyone in the room laughed.

Kuai Yue said again: "I look at Sun Jian's son Sun Ce, who is brave and strategic. is better than his father, the future is unlimited, and this person attacked Yangzhou. Liu Miao is in danger, and Liu Miao's only helper is Cao Cao. Cao Cao is an all-round talent in civil and military affairs, first of all, there are more elite soldiers. Strategists and good ministers, Sun Ce and Cao Cao are only afraid that they will fight for a long time, so Xuzhou will become a borderless land. You must know that Tao Qian's old son is incompetent, Xu Ji and Erzhou are in chaos, Cao Cao has no time to look north, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are busy with internal strife, Xuzhou is a piece of fat, if we can eliminate Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, then Xuzhou is in our bag. ”

Liu Biao laughed when he heard the words, stood up, and said loudly: "Kuai Yue has Zhang Liang's plan, I don't want Liu Biao to get it, the country is like this, what more can the husband ask for, just do what Kuai Yue said, our army is recruiting troops in Nanyang!" This matter will be left to Li Yan to do. ”

A look of jealousy flashed in Cai Mao's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Lord, this matter is not allowed, Li Yan is just a small official, how can he be qualified to command the army?" Cai Mao's brothers, Cai Zhong and Cai He, have the talent of generals and are up to the task. ”

Kuai Yue said lightly on the side: "Li Yan is indeed not qualified enough in the army, given time, he may be able to lead the troops to fight, but now it is not enough to weigh enough, as for the two Cai generals, I am afraid that the same, I think it is most suitable for my Jingzhou famous general General Zhang Yun to lead the troops, Li Yan and the two Cai generals are with the army." ”

Liu Biao nodded.

Although Cai Mao did not achieve his goal, Zhang Yun can also be regarded as a figure of Cai Mao's party, so Cai Mao did not say anything. As long as Zhang Yun is there, will the credit of his two brothers be less?

So, the matter was settled.

Even Xu Ji didn't expect this matter, and Li Yan couldn't have expected that he would become the biggest opportunity for Xu Jinan to attack Jingzhou in the future.

Jingzhou also took action.

Soon after, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu got the news, Yuan Shao was overjoyed, and hurriedly sent people to Jingzhou to hunt down and kill Xu Ji who Chen Zhi was pretending to be, while Yuan Shao secretly transferred Yuan Min back and went south, the purpose of course was also "Xu Ji".

For a time, all the world's heroes who wanted to put Xu Ji to death focused their attention on Jingzhou.

Jingzhou, masters gathered!

And the real Xu Ji secretly moved to Shaanxi County with Leyi at this time.

Yu Ban, who had just recovered from a serious illness, was really not suitable to participate in military operations, so he was left by Xu Ji in the suburbs of Chang'an, and took eight hundred ghost elites to patrol the suburbs of Chang'an.

You must know that Lu Dao Jia Xu and Zhang Xiu have already sent news that Wang Yun has completely handed over the task of attacking Hanzhong and Yizhou to the two of them, so the task of finding Emperor Han Xian outside Chang'an City has been handed over to someone else, who is said to be Song Xian, a general under Lu Bu.

In this case, how could Xu Ji leave some people to confuse Song Xian's sight, if Wang Yun found out that he had stopped looking for Emperor Han Xian, wouldn't he immediately guess that something else was going on?

Therefore, Xu Ji secretly set off with Le Yi and the four thousand ghost elites and moved towards Shaanxi County.

Because the journey was not long, Xu Ji and Le Yi arrived in Shaanxi County in a blink of an eye.

Shaanxi County is a place where cattle auxiliary heavy soldiers are hoarded, and all of them are Xiliang elite soldiers, not only well-trained, but also well-equipped, and there is a lot of grain and grass in the army.

At this time, Niu Fu's two right-hand men, Li Dao and Guo Yan, were sent out by Niu Fu, and the two led tens of thousands of elite soldiers to Zhongmu to attack Zhu Fu.

The person who assisted Niu Fu here was the general Fan Chou.

Xu Ji led his troops to set up camp in the mountains after arriving.

The news of Xu Ji's arrival made the Niu auxiliary army on the opposite side panic. Niu Fuke obviously didn't expect someone to attack them so soon.

However, Xu Ji didn't want to fight Niu Fu today, so Niu Fu's panic was just in vain.

Xu Ji and Le Yi rode to the mountains and forests and looked at Niu Fu's camp.

Leyi looked at it for a while. grinned and said: "It is said that the Xiliang soldiers are the best among the elite soldiers in the world, and I don't see where they are stronger than our Yanzhou soldiers." ”

Xu Ji said with a smile: "Fenwu is the wrong object. It is aside from our Yanzhou army, and the Xiliang soldiers are indeed the first elite soldiers in the world. Especially under Lu Bu's men, the power is really terrifying, even against our Yanzhou army, it is not far behind. ”

Le Yi pursed his lips and said, "But Niu Fu is not Lu Bu, look at what these soldiers are doing?" How many of us are there? Anyone with an experienced experience can see that our army is, at best, the vanguard of a large army. I don't know what Lu Dao Niu Fu is afraid of? ”

Xu Ji said with a smile: "Niu Fu is now a frightened bird, you must know that Wang Yun has announced to the world that his old man who was lit with a sky lantern is a national thief, and everyone will be punished, and Niu Fu is not a fool." Of course, you can imagine the fate he is going to suffer, his brother-in-law Li Ru is dead and cannot live in peace, the body has been dragged out of the coffin countless times, and it has long been made beyond recognition, and the human head that was chopped off by Xu Chu was even kicked by the children as a juju, do you say that Niu Fu can not be afraid? ”

Le Yi was so cold by Xu Ji that he couldn't help but shudder: "I'm not afraid of death, but if I die so miserably, I will be poisoned even after death." Then I'll be scared too. ”

Xu Ji nodded and said, "That's right, Niu Fu is now a frightened bird, and now anyone will attack him, no matter how many people there are." The effect is all the same. Because he was already stupid by the title that he was a national thief. ”

Le Yi said excitedly: "In this case, the lord has not ordered me to let Le Yi attack them, and I will succeed in the first battle." ”

Xu Ji smiled mysteriously and said, "Fenwu." At the end of the so-called strong crossbow, you can't wear Lu Min. Where do we have the strength to attack Niu Fu now? What our army needs is a good rest and a decisive battle tomorrow. ”

Le Yi was stunned. I don't know why: "Lord, those boys under my hands are all fierce dragons and tigers, where can I rest?" The lord should send me to fight for a while! ”

Xu Ji shook his head lightly, and didn't look at Le Yi who was full of unconvinced faces, but raised his head to look at the bloody sunset, and said leisurely: "The green mountains are still there, the sunset is red a few times, and it is really the sky at this time!" Fenwu, the weather must be very good tonight, how about I take you out to enjoy the moon? ”

Le Yi was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know why he looked at the unfathomable Xu Ji.

Xu Ji stretched his waist and said casually: "I will definitely prepare the next glass of water and wine for Niu Fu, I hope he is not strong enough to drink and can get drunk for a long time." He turned around and led the horse away.

Although Le Yi is a rough person, after all, he has studied with his brother Le Jin for a few years, hearing Xu Ji's words, looking at Xu Ji's Sui Anran's somewhat thin but high-spirited back, he couldn't help but murmur: "Drunk and not waking up?" The lord is so Yaxing! ”

Xu Jiha's laughter came: "These few sentences are not my sentences, I have countless Chinese literary talents, I Xu Ji is not enough, in fact, it is also a good thing to get drunk on the battlefield, the so-called 'drunk and lying on the battlefield Jun Mo smiled, and a few people came back to fight in ancient times', wouldn't it be happy......"

The voice faded away as Xu Ji walked.

Only Leyi was left standing in the barren weeds and singing in a low voice.

And the big tent of Niu Fu Zhongjun opposite Leyi is another scene.

Niu Fu is not as interested as Xu Ji now, he is frowning now.

Fan Chou, who was sitting on his right hand, looked at Niu Fu cautiously, but he was sneering in his heart: The person who was invincible two days ago has now become a lost dog, and he can't live in fear.

However, Fan Chou was not in the mood to watch Niu Fu's jokes, after all, he was the same as Niu Fu, he was a grasshopper on a rope, Niu Fu died, and he finished playing. He is not as good as Hu Chi'er opposite.

This Hu Chi'er was pressing a beautiful maid who poured wine for him down on his seat and feasting on it.

The woman was terrified, although she often endured the insults of these beasts in the army, but this Hu Chi'er was notoriously cruel, and there were countless women who were crippled by him.

The woman trembled with fear, but she did not dare to resist, otherwise her life would be lost. The culottes had been taken off by Hu Chi'er, and her plump buttocks were exposed to the empty air full of wine, and they rose and fell even more in the frightened gasp, forming a sense of extreme beauty and cruelty.

Hu Chi'er squinted at the copper bell's huge eyes, and played with the woman's lower body with both hands, and her hands were extremely heavy, so the woman was coquettish.

The other two maids who poured wine for Fan Chou and Niu Fu were frightened and panicked.

Finally, when one of the beautiful maids poured wine for Usuke, he spilled the wine on Usuke's body.

The beautiful maid was so frightened that she quickly knelt down.

Niu Fu was already depressed, and when he saw that this beautiful woman had offended him, he was furious, jumped up, drew his sword, and chopped off the woman's head with a sword.

Blood flowed everywhere.

Hu Chi'er looked at her lord like this, and hurriedly let go of the women in her arms and drove these women out.

The woman escaped with her life, and the other women ran out of the city as if they had been granted amnesty, but no one paid attention to the headless corpse.

Niu Fu casually wiped the blood stains on the sword, frowned and said to the two, "How do we deal with the enemy in front of us?" ”

Hu Chi'er walked over, stepped on the woman's dead head with her foot, kicked back and forth, and grinned: "Grandma is a bear!" Just fuck it, we're going to rob the camp at night! ”

As soon as the words came out, the two turned their heads sharply and looked at Hu Chi'er for a moment. (To be continued......)
