Chapter 383: Scuffle (11)

Xu Ji's current arrangement of troops is the formation of Yuli.

The 10,000 Xiliang cavalry was divided into two by Xu Ji and placed on the left and right flanks, if it was a melee, the two wings could fly together, and they could crush the enemy's battle array wings with their strong charge.

Five thousand phantom shadows and five thousand Jingzhou soldiers were clearly lined up in the middle of the Yuli array. Although it is infantry, because of the strength of the shadow, its strength is definitely more than that of the cavalry under the two wings.

And Xu Ji's arrangement of the formation itself has the meaning of tempting the enemy, so that the enemy mistakenly thinks that Xu Ji's weakness is in the center and then concentrates his forces to attack in the middle, and when he discovers the strong power of the shadow, it will already be a situation of misrepresentation and hatred. Zhang Liao was next to Xu Ji at this time, he himself was a general who had fought on the battlefield for many years, looked at his plastic surgery, and immediately understood Xu Ji's intentions, and couldn't help but sigh to Xu Ji: "The art of war is cloudy: 'If you attack, you will take it, and if you attack it, you will not defend it.'" Those who defend will defend it, and defend what they attack. Those who are good at attacking, the enemy does not know what they are defending; Those who defend well, the enemy does not know what they are attacking. 'Looking at the arrangement of the lord's troops today, it must have been the essence. ”

Xu Ji and Jia Xu looked at each other and smiled, and raised their eyes to look at each other.

The other party is also murderous, with a clear banner, and dozens of generals will show off their might on the opposite side. Xu Ji saw his "old friend" Liu Bei at a glance.

At this time, this gentleman was sitting on the horse with Zhang Ren and pointing, with a serious face.

After not seeing each other for a period of time, Liu Bei seemed to be reborn, and in the vicissitudes of the world, he actually gave birth to infinite majesty, which made Liu Bei have a kind of dragon and tiger posture among the enemies opposite. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the two peerless tigers, will not leave Liu Bei's side, still and moving. Guan Yufeng's eyes narrowed slightly, and the Qinglong Yanyue Knife in his hand seemed to be a woodcut. He was held motionless in his hands, as if it had been the case for thousands of years.

Zhang Fei opened his eyes angrily. His hair and beard are as unstoppable as his spreading murderous aura in all directions. At this time, what attracted Xu Ji's attention the most was the young man behind Liu Bei who was dressed in silver armor and a dark blue cloak, with a firm face in his face, a white horse with a divine horse in his crotch, and a shining silver gun in his hand.

And at this moment, the young man obviously noticed Xu Ji's eyes and looked in Xu Ji's direction. Xu Ji raised his eyebrows, this temperament is a little similar to Chen Zhi and the person with the same annual leave is probably that Zhao Yun, right? However, Xu Ji immediately smiled coldly, and now he is already familiar with these very famous figures in history, let alone this foolish and loyal person who only has the courage of a martial artist?

is different from the intimacy between Zhang Ren and Liu Bei. The handsome Ma Teng looked over with a solemn face. The eyes in the tiger's eyes only stayed on Xu Ji's face, and then swept over, with a feeling of emptiness. Beside him is the first tiger general of Xiliang - Ma Chao! is also a white armor, a white horse and a silver gun, the only difference from Zhao Yun is that Zhao Yun is as calm as the earth, while Ma Chao is like a piece of cold ice, a pile of snow. The slaughter froze everyone's sight

The one person next to Ma Teng was dressed very strangely and was a monk, but the clothes looked like the clothes of a dignitary

There was a big character written on the big saki behind him, and Xu Ji expected that this person must be Zhang Lu of the so-called "Five Bucket Rice Sect".

Behind this person, there are more than a dozen civilian, military and military generals, all of whom are arrogant. After sneering at this for a long time, Xu Ji and Jia Xu's eyes invariably fell on a young man.

The young man was white-faced and beardless. Definitely not more than eighteen years old, outside the enemy's Ma Chao and Ma Dai, this young man is the youngest.

This young man's facial features are extremely uncoordinated. It could even be said to be ugly. But there is a touching philosopher's flavor in his expression and demeanor, especially his high cheekbones and bright eyes. It also shows the brilliance of wisdom in his eyes, and the mystery is incomprehensible. Without asking, you can know that this person is that Pang Tong.

seemed to feel Xu Ji and Jia Xudi's gaze. Pang Tong turned his head to look at this side and nodded slightly to the two of them.

Jia Xu narrowed his eyes. Don't reveal the slightest thought in your heart. Xu Ji looked very interested.

Looks like it's time for the show. Liu Bei stepped forward immediately. shouted to Xu Ji and the others: "Zhang Xiu Jia Xu, dare to come out to see me Liu Bei!" The implication, of course, is to take the opportunity to find a reason to go to war.

Xu Ji knew that a big battle was inevitable today, but the most taboo thing in front of the two armies was that the name was not right, which would have a great impact on the morale of the army, so he pulled his hip and took a step forward. said calmly: "Liu Xuande is invited, do you still remember me Xu Ji?" ”

Liu Bei had already seen Xu Ji, and at this time he pretended to be a sudden and said: "It turned out to be General Xu Ji, the assassin of Yanzhou, and I am fortunate to be lucky, but I don't know what happened to General Xu who was not in Yanzhou to enjoy happiness, but ran to Hanzhong, a place of war and chaos?" Xu Jiqi said: "Uncle Liuhuang, don't you know? I am now the great Sikong of the dynasty, in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, the so-called rewards and punishments are clear, such as General Zhang Xiu and Mr. Jia Xu, the loyal and filial courtiers who are highly valued by the saints are naturally among the rewards, and this great Sikong is here to promulgate the rewards of the saints and the imperial court to the two adults, especially the spirit of their courage to put themselves in danger for the sake of the Han Dynasty, to block the enemies of the three parties alone, and to break with the rebel thief Wang Yun, which is really a model for my Han courtiers. On the contrary, it is Uncle Liu Huang, you borrowed so many soldiers and horses, and even joined forces with Zhang Lu, Liu Yan's lackey accomplice in Hanzhong, it is really strange. I take the liberty of asking, what is Uncle Liu's intention? ”

Xu Ji District blocked Liu Bei's attempt to take Jia Xu and Zhang Xiu in a few words, and even forced Liu Bei's intentions, and this move made Liu Bei know that dealing with Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu was to cooperate with the court and Liu. Liu Bei was stunned immediately after hearing this, and said with anger on his face: "Xu Ji, you keep saying that you are on the order of the saint, who can confirm it?" Wang Yunnai is a great Han Situ and has contributed to the country, why do you say that he is a rebel, and what is Lord Wang Yun doing now? ”

Looking at Liu Bei's angry appearance, people who don't know still think that Liu Bei and Wang Yun are good friends, and they don't know about Wang Yun's death, who would have thought that this is a pretense and don't know? Xu Ji looked at Liu Bei's excellent acting skills, and couldn't help but fall for it, and immediately took out the holy decree issued by Liu Xie from his arms. said indifferently: "The holy purpose is here, Uncle Liu Huang can take a look at it in person." As for Wang Yun, everyone knows about it. There are even princes and princes of Chang'an who testify that the order to kill Wang Yun was personally issued by the Holy Lord. ”

Liu Bei waved his hand. He said sharply: "Since my saint ascended the throne, there have been internal and external troubles, how can you ever be the master of the day, what is the use of you taking out the holy decree today?" If I don't see the saint with my own eyes and hear the words of the saint with my own ears, of course I don't believe that since the Chang'an Rebellion, Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu have been stirring up trouble everywhere, and the war between Xiliang and Hanzhong is the masterpiece of the two. It's a ridiculous thing in the world! Could it be that General Xu forgot that he was also a concubine, could it be that General Xu forgot that he was also a minister of the Han Dynasty? ”

Xu Ji snorted coldly when he heard this: "Hmph, Liu Xuande Hugh wants to bully people, who in the world doesn't know that Liu Yan privately made the Son of Heaven in clothes and chariots, and has a bad intention?" Zhang Lunai is Liu Yan's other driver. It is the one who helps the abusers to defeat Yizhou, and the crusade against Yizhou must first capture Guanzhong, what is Zhang Xiujiaxu's crime? I, Xu Ji, was entrusted with the responsibility of orphans by the order of the first emperor, how can you know? Liu Bei's face sank when he heard this, and he said loudly: "General Zhang Lu is a good person under Liu Yan, not only Zhang Lu. It's that when I, Liu Xuande, raised troops to fight against the Yellow Turban Army in Youzhou in my early years, why wasn't I under Liu Yan? If it is about their generation. Liu Yan is still my uncle Liu Xuande, but since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both, and Liu Yan is rebellious. Everybody gets it. However, his deeds were exposed too late, and General Zhang Lu and I, Liu Xuande, also learned about Liu Yan's various rebellious things recently, and they had already separated from Liu Yan at this time. He will also have righteousness to kill his relatives in the future. Following the example of my brother Liu Biao in Jingzhou, General Zhang Lu had already abandoned the darkness and turned to the light earlier. How can it be rebellion? Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu pursued the selfish desires of one person and used military force. Ordered Hanzhong to use swords in vain. Isn't it possible for me, the uncle of the Han Emperor, to send troops to recruit him? Liu Bei's words were high-sounding and awe-inspiring, as if he and Zhang Lu were both loyal ministers. Moreover, Liu Bei knew that he was involved in old things, and he really did not benefit at all, so he decisively chose to ignore it.

Xu Ji scolded shamelessly in his heart when he heard this, and sneered: "Liu Xuande's words are not joking? Are the only ones in the world who are loyal to the Han Dynasty with their soldiers, and are Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu not loyal ministers? Sending troops to attack Hanzhong is for the country and the people, but since you and I have spoken between you and me today, everyone is a loyal minister, then Liu Xuande should retire from the army on the same day. Now that tomorrow is on top, you, as the emperor of the Han Dynasty, don't know how to defend the territory and secure the territory, but instead enter Chang'an, how is it different from the rebellious ministers and thieves? Before Liu Bei could speak, a person next to him rode out and shouted: "Xu Wenlie, you are arguing with strong words!" Uncle Liu Huang said very clearly. If you don't see the saint, all words are handles, and they are not enough to rely on, so you don't know that you are not coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes? Moreover, how can Jia Xu explain the fact that he planted internal ghosts in the army of the two generals Li and Guo Yan and provoked the Xiliang War? ”

Xu Ji was furious, the other party was so aggressive precisely because he had not yet learned about the entry of his army into Chang'an, if he now had absolute power in Chang'an, he was afraid that the other party would not be so arrogant, but now he said that he was holding the Son of Heaven hostage to order the princes, so he said coldly: "Your Excellency, who is talking nonsense here!" The man stiffened his neck and said proudly: "I am Yang Feng!" ”

Xu Ji has always wondered who is responsible for the initial cessation of the war between Li and Guo Xuan, Ma Teng, and Han Sui, and now he finally understands that this Yang Feng has a good relationship with both parties, and he is very intelligent, looking at his triumphant appearance, it seems that Jia Xu's spy is the handiwork of this person. At the moment, he said indifferently: "It turned out to be Lord Yang Feng, dare to ask, the two armies are not tired of deceitful against the soldiers, why can't Jia Xu send spies to destroy Li Dao and Guo Yan?" War is not a guest of other people's homes, where are there so many etiquette rules? It's ridiculous to say that Jia Xu has ill intentions just by relying on a spy, right? ”

Yang Feng said angrily: "Xu Ji! Don't think that you can excuse them just because Zhang Xiujia has use value at this time! Jia Xu has only himself in his heart, if he only wants to break the enemy and plant ghosts in our army, we will never complain even if we are defeated and captured, but Jia Xu's wolf ambition, he instructed the spies to provoke our army to attack Chang'an, not to capture us, but to a lose-lose situation, he can profit from it, how can such wolf ambitions survive in the world? Xu Ji said quietly: "So Your Excellency and others will join forces with Wang Yun and send troops to deal with Jia Yu and Zhang Xiu?" ”

Yang Feng was stunned just now, so he was immediately caught by Xu Ji when he didn't choose to speak, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the words, and before he could speak, Xu Ji said in a long voice: "Wang Yun secretly colluded with Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, and wanted to abolish the emperor and set up another one, and the princes would conspire with him." Isn't it a nest with Wang Yun's snakes and rats? ”

Jia Yu and the others secretly applauded in the back, Xu Ji was really able to speak well and was even more talented. As soon as there was a slight loophole in Yang Feng's words, he was caught by Xu Ji and launched a counterattack, looking at Yang Feng, who was angry. Xu Ji sneered: "Wouldn't it be that you and Wang Yun's abolition of the emperor set up another place and Jia Xu and Zhang Xiu learned about it, and the two of them swore to the death, and if you want to kill people and kill people, you will send troops to fight against General Zhang Xiu, right?" ”

Anyway, Liu Xie analyzed the reasons for this war in the court, and now of course he has to firmly put this trumped-up charge on the people in front of him. Zhang Xiuqiang held back a smile, stepped forward immediately, and said loudly: "What Da Sikong said is extremely true, the truth of the matter is exactly like this, Li urged Guo Yan and others to be the remnants of the national thief. Where will there be any good intentions? Wang Yun is stubborn and easily does not change his decision, and now he actually forms an alliance with Li and Guo Yan, who he personally identifies as enemies, which is clearly a bad intention! ”

Xu Ji secretly praised Zhang Xiu's cleverness. As soon as Zhang Xiu's words came out, the enemies on the opposite side scolded one after another.

The scene was chaotic. Of course, Liu Bei and the others couldn't tell clearly.

Liu Bei finally stopped everyone from scolding, and said with a blue face: "Xu Ji! You are using strong words, thinking that I Liu Bei is the uncle of the Han Emperor, how can you plot to rob me of the Han family? Xu Ji shouted: "Liu Xuande's words are wrong! Isn't Liu Yan a relative of the Han family? Isn't it still the same Yao Mouquan usurping the throne? Hum! Do you think I'm a colt and don't know? Everyone in your Liu Muzong family has the 'Guangwu Testament' in hand, and you Liu Xuande should know the content of the Guangwu Testament better than me, right? ”

Liu Beimeng heard Xu Ji say Guangwu's last life, and his face immediately turned pale. looked at Xu Ji like a ghost. He couldn't believe it, pointing at Xu Ji and saying, "You...... You ......"

Everyone in front of the two armies could hear it clearly. Guangwu's death? What's that?

Xu Ji looked at Liu Bei with a sneer and said, "Liu Xuande, could it be that the new monarch that Wang Yun wants to set up is Your Excellency?"

Liu Bei immediately panicked and said: "Xu Ji, Hugh is talking nonsense...... Xu Ji laughed and said: "It seems that what the princess said is true, hum." Since you are not Your Excellency, you are going to make Liu Yan the emperor! It turns out that everything you just said is false. Since ancient times, you must first settle inside, you keep saying that you want to settle accounts with Liu Yan, but you are only stationing troops here. Aren't you afraid that Liu Yan will cut off your back road? There are only two possibilities for you to be so fearless. Either Liu Yan has something in your hands, or you are the vanguard of Liu Yan seeking power and usurping the throne to capture Chang'an. Otherwise, why didn't you hear that the Holy Lord Chang'an didn't withdraw his troops? Hum! Aren't General Ma Teng's Xiliang soldiers also here? Everyone in the world knows that General Ma Teng and Liu Yan are close friends. Liu Bei and the others stammered, not knowing how to refute. Could it be that Liu Yandi's three sons are in his own hands. That's why you didn't retreat? Isn't this a proof of the collusion between himself and Wang Yun?

If you don't refute it, wouldn't it prove that you are Liu Yan's rebellious scratching teeth?

It is really difficult to advance and retreat in such a situation. Xu Ji was very happy in his heart, although he did not learn philosophy well in his later life, he also knew that this was a dilemma in sophistry. The ancient Chinese "white horse is not a horse" is one of them. I just borrowed it for a while, and I immediately received miraculous results.

For a time, Xu Ji's side had the upper hand.

Jia Xu listened and nodded again and again, Xu Ji's eloquence was really beyond his expectations, if he could end this debate now. It's the ideal thing, because on the surface, the other party is at a loss of reason. The morale of the opposing soldiers was devastated.

This is to see that Pang Tong said a few words in Zhang Lu's ear, and he knew that it was not good. Know that sophistry is not indissolvable, it is enough to disprove assumptions.

Pang Tong is a wise man in the world, and naturally knows how to resolve it.

Sure enough, Zhang Lu came out and shouted: "Xu Ji, your discussion seems to be strict. But in fact, it is full of loopholes......" Xu Ji allowed him to continue, and said: "Zhang Lu, you gave your beautiful stepmother to Liu Yan for lewd pleasure day and night, and you still dare to say that you have betrayed Liu Yan, and now you have to make sophistries and confuse the public, it is really shameless!" From this point of view, the Five Doumi Sect really deserves to be a cult!"

Scolding people for selfishness is the easiest way to make people lose their minds, and at this time, Xu Ji really didn't want to do more entanglement, so he had to use this method to stop Zhang Lu.

Sure enough, Zhang Lu was provoked by Xu Ji to lose his mind, forgot the task given to him by Pang Tong, stretched out his index finger and scolded: "Xu Ji, what kind of face do you have to talk about long and short, Zhang Xiu next to you is suspected of gathering deer under the leaves!" Pang Tong shook his head and sighed again and again when he heard the words in the back, extremely annoyed, obviously blaming himself for being thoughtless.

Ju deer? What do you mean?

Suddenly, Xu Ji remembered that this seemed to be a synonym for the promiscuous relationship between mother and son in the legend, and it seemed that Zhang Lu was talking about the matter between Zhang Xiu and the Zou family. When Zhang Xiu heard this, he was immediately furious, his legs clamped the war horse, the silver spear in his hand pushed forward, and went straight to Zhang Lu, shouting: "Piff, watch me kill you with one shot!" ”

No one thought that Zhang Xiu would start to do it without saying hello.

But this is exactly what Xu and Ci Jiaxu want, anyway, what they should say has been said, and they must not give the other party a chance to refute. Now is the time to get your hands dirty.

It can also be seen from this that although Pang Tong is extremely intelligent, there are still places where his thinking is not rigorous, so he will lose the opportunity to fight back. In an instant, Zhang Xiu came to the center of the two armies.

Zhang Lu killed a general behind him at the same time, and shouted: "Zhang Xiuxiu is rampant, look at me Yang Ren to take your head!" "Dancing knives to fight.

Jia Xu sighed on the side and said, "Yang Ren? Could it be Zhang Ludi's novice? Hanzhong Yang family? Xu Ji searched his stomach for a while, Huo Ran was moved, and remembered that when Cao Cao took Hanzhong, it was this Yang Ren and Xiahou Yuan who fought for 30 rounds without winning or losing, and Xiahou Yuan had to use a drag knife to win, so it can be said that he was the first fierce general in Hanzhong.

And Zhang Ru is the king of guns in the north, a world-recognized master of guns.

With a "dang", the two weapons exchanged fires, and a vicious battle began.

And the Battle of Chang'an has also reached the moment of decisive battle. (To be continued......)
