Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The whole Shouchun was busy again all of a sudden, and all the military camps began to move, the black chess army, the trapped camp and the wolf cavalry of the state were all assembled in the city, and now Shouchun can be said to have gathered 80% of the combat strength of the Lu Bu army, and it can fight a battle.
"What's going on! The Xiliang Iron Cavalry is attacking the city! Liu Mang put on his armor and went to the city wall of Shouchun and asked.
"Lord!" Cheng Yu and Huang Xu saw Liu Mang's arrival and hugged Liu Mang's fist, this Xiliang Iron Horse suddenly appeared under the city wall, fortunately, it was already late now, and the Shouchun City Gate had been closed, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Although the sky was dark, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry under the city was holding torches, and there were thousands of people looking at the torches, "What is Hao Shao in Gwangju doing to eat!" Why don't you send someone to report it! There is also intelligence, why didn't Yang Hong move at all in advance" Liu Mang was really a little angry, not only to Yang Hong's anger, but also to Hao Shao with Guangzhou, such a Xiliang iron horse invaded the hinterland of Yangzhou, it was impossible that there was no movement, but it ran under the gate of Shouchun, this is not dereliction of duty! Yang Hong's intelligence did not send news, and there was no news even from Hao Shao, who was with Gwangju, to know that if the Xiliang Iron Cavalry wanted to enter Yangzhou, he had to pass through Gwangju.
In fact, Liu Mang wronged them, Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu were beaten away, and now Yang Hong's main intelligence is the intelligence of Jiangdong Sun Ce and Jingzhou Liu Biao, and there is naturally a lot less for Nanyang County, and then Yang Hong went to Lujiang to pick up Yuan Fang. How could it be possible to care about this information anymore Naturally, a vacuum was formed, and Hao Shao in Gwangju was there. It's even more wronged, these thousands of Xiliang Iron rode in front of his Gwangju Gate, he had already appeared, and he even sent some scouts to investigate, but the war horses left in Gwangju were all horses, how could they outrun those Xiliang Liang horses under the crotch of Xiliang Tie! So the final result is that the Xiliang Iron Rider has run to Shouchun, and the person reported by Hao Shao is still on the way.
"It's a good time, since you dare to come. I definitely want him to stay in this Shouchun City! Liu Mang's words were cold, because there were thousands of wolf riders in the city, and the city management was trapped, and the three-way heavy armor foot soldiers in the city management were enough to encircle and suppress the Xiliang iron cavalry outside the city.
Listening to Liu Mang's angry words, Cheng Yu and Huang Xu couldn't interject, so they could only tell Liu Mang the news that he was now in the city, "Lord, this. This Xiliang Iron Cavalry did not attack the city! "Cheng Yu and Huang Xu are very strange, after the Xiliang Tie under the city arrived, not only did they not attack the city, but they lit all the torches, for fear that no one in Shouchun would know about them, and they also stopped under the city for a long time, which made Cheng Yu very strange.
"No siege?!" Liu Mang frowned. What does this Xiliang Iron Cavalry want, Liu Mang looked at the torches outside the city, it was getting late, it should be ready to set up camp and attack the city tomorrow! It seems that this embroidery is really a thief's heart.
Liu Mang will not give these Xiliang iron horsemen a chance to live until tomorrow, "Cheng Yu passed my military order." Let the black pieces fall into two camps. Go out from the city gates on both sides, make a detour to Xiliang Tie and ride behind me to do an ambush, and wait for me to give the order to attack in three ways! "Liu Mang is ready to stay on this road Xiliang Iron Ride, and tomorrow he still needs to send people and horses to buy grain and grass from all the princes, and it is impossible to delay it.
"Yes! The last general commands! Just when Cheng Yu and Huang Xu were half-kneeling and clenching their fists, more than a dozen horsemen suddenly walked out of the city, and these dozen horsemen all carried torches and rushed towards the city wall of Shouchun. The Xiliang Iron Cavalry behind him also moved.
The enemy has moved, and Liu Mangjun in the city naturally has to respond, "Bed crossbow ready!" "Shouchun City was once again equipped with a bed crossbow, this bed crossbow is really good in defending the city, so after Guangzhou, except for Liu Mang who took away dozens of them, the others were left in Guangzhou to teach Hao Shao, I believe that Hao Shao, the king of defense, the little prince of Jiandun, will definitely be able to show his iron talent.
The range of the bed crossbow can reach 700 steps, and within 500 steps, even the heavy armor with a huge shield can shoot through, and these dozen or so horses are just a round of bed crossbows.
"Slow!" Liu Mang frowned and looked at the dozen or so Xiliang iron cavalry rushing over under the city, if you want to attack the city, it is not these dozen cavalry that appear but directly attack the city, so there is no need for bed crossbows, and Liu Mang looked at these dozen cavalry, relying on the light of the torches, he could still see the appearance of people, and there were only two generals among the dozen people, a scribe, and even a child! The others are all armor-clad men, but it can be seen that they are all personal guards, and this siege can't use scribes and children! So I must have come to talk.
"Let them come forward!" Listening to Liu Mang's words, the bed crossbow on the city was retracted, and more than a dozen horsemen in the city came towards the moat with confidence, beating horses and standing on the moat.
"Above the city, His Royal Highness the Holy King of the Han Dynasty, Liu Mang and Liu Ziyang!" A scribe under the city suddenly asked loudly. "I'm waiting for the Xiliang Iron Cavalry Horse under the command of Zhang Xiu, the general of Nanyang Yangwu!"
"This king is the king of Shu," Liu Mang also responded to the shouts of the scribes under the city, although he was named the holy king by the Han Emperor, and was also respected as the holy king, but he must not call himself the holy king, he can only use the title of the king of Shu, "Why Zhang Xiu is not convinced by the defeat of Yangzhou, and is ready to send you to death!" ”
Zhang Xiu's Xiliang Iron Cavalry was played twice by Lu Bujun, the first was an ambush in Gwangju, and then it was ambushed by Lu Bu once, according to the possibility of Zhang Xiu's good face, he would really come back to take revenge.
"Don't dare, don't dare!" The scribes below hurriedly greeted each other.
"Don't dare? Don't dare, why did you appear in my Yangzhou, why didn't you dare to force me to live in Shouchun City?! Liu Mang snorted coldly at the scribes below, no matter who it is, they don't like to be hit by the enemy.
"His Royal Highness the Holy King, I am waiting for this time, not to be an enemy of His Royal Highness the Holy King, but to let His Royal Highness the Holy King uphold justice, return my Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and return my General Yangwu an innocence!" The scribes under the city continued to talk to Liu Mang.
"Give you back your innocence and uphold justice?!" Liu Mang really doesn't understand, what's wrong with this embroidery. He and Zhang Xiu are enemies, why do they act like subordinates now. You must know that although Liu Mang has the title of king, how many people in this world will buy it.
"Zhang Xiuren! You let him come out and talk! Liu Mang didn't understand, so he naturally wouldn't say much, maybe there was fraud in it, so he directly asked Zhang Xiu to talk. Cheng Yu has already gone down to the city wall, and the black chess army and the trap camp should also be dispatched to go around, as long as there is enough time, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry under this city will be the turtle in the urn.
"I, General Yangwu, already. It's gone! The scribe under the city did not speak, and a general on the side spoke first, and the man actually had a trace of crying as he spoke.
"Return?!" Are you back in Nanyang Wancheng? Then what kind of justice does Liu Mang want from him? Could it be that Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei didn't get along and started a war? Zhang Xiu can't help herself? Isn't this a joke, let's not say that Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei's army are in the honeymoon period, you must know that Liu Bei even put the white-eared heavy armor soldiers in order to save Zhang Xiu, and the general Chen Zhi next to him also died in the chaos, and Chen Zhi's body was still Zhao Yun begging in front of him. Zhao Yun buried it personally, and Zhang Xiu's Wancheng is a poor soldier, Zhang Xiu is stronger than Liu Bei if it is more forceful, Zhang Xiu can lose 20,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry, because the 20,000 is not all he has, but Liu Bei is different. White-eared heavy armor is all his elite.
"Lord, this embroidery should be, it should be dead!" Xu Shu on the side reminded Liu Mangdao.
"Dead!" Liu Mang was stunned, how could Zhang Xiu die, Liu Mang didn't believe the news at all. Because Lu Bu had clearly told Chen Gong's plan before, a tiger was in the mountain. It's better for the two tigers to fight, killing Zhang Xiu has no other benefits except for making Nanyang Wancheng and Lu Bujun completely become mortal enemies, but on the contrary, Liu Bei can annex Zhang Xiu's Wancheng in the name of avenging Zhang Xiu. So for Zhang Xiu, it's good to kill his Xiliang Iron Cavalry, chop off his claws that Zhang Xiu stretched out into Yangzhou and teach him a lesson.
Instead of destroying Zhang Xiu, it is better to change the target, put all your energy on Liu Bei's body, rely on Zhang Xiu's bait to seduce Liu Bei, and eliminate Liu Bei's white-eared heavy armor, even if Liu Bei doesn't save Zhang Xiu, Lu Bu will come up with a way to let Zhang Xiu escape back to Nanyang.
So it is impossible for Zhang Xiu to die, but now the words given to Liu Mang by the people in the city are that Zhang Xiu is dead, and Liu Mang is the first to not believe it.
But something that made Liu Mang even more unbelievable happened, only to hear the scribes in the city hugging their fists and saying, "I, Jia Xu, have come to take refuge in His Royal Highness the King of Shu, hoping that His Royal Highness the King of Shu can take me in for the sake of being a fellow Han official!" ”
"Jia Xu, it's Zhang Xiu's strategist! Zhang Lei, is Zhang Xiu's son?! Liu Mang reacted subconsciously, but then, he was suddenly startled.
"He, what did he say! Jia Xu! Jia Xu?! Liu Mang was suddenly stunned. Are you Jia Xu Jia Wenhe?! Liu Mang's voice was full of disbelief.
"Huh?!" Hearing Liu Mang's voice, the two scribes present were frowning, one of them was Xu Shu next to Liu Mang, Xu Shu didn't have heard of Jia Xu's reputation, but that reputation was really not good, Jia Xu's label was Dong Zhuo's remnants, the traitors of the Han family, and he was incompetent and selfish.
Because Jia Xu was promoted by Dong Zhuo when he was Dong Zhuo, although he did not make much contribution, he was also regarded as Dong Zhuo's remnants by those who claimed to be righteous, just like Cai Wenji's father, although he was not in the same league as Dong Zhuo, but he was tortured to death by Wang Yun in prison, because Dong Zhuo promoted Cai Wenji's father, and wanted to help Dong Zhuo collect the body, which was regarded by Wang Yun as a thorn in the eye and executed.
Similarly, Jia Xu ran fast or he would die, and then he was a traitor of the Han family, because he instigated Li Dao and Guo Yan to gather troops and horses to attack Chang'an, so that the Han Emperor was played and applauded by the two for many years, so that the prestige of the Han Dynasty was lost.
Xu Shu is not the kind of stubborn person, so he naturally won't pay attention to any remnants of the traitor or the like, but what he cares about is the next two evaluations, incompetence is selfishness, Jia Xu's incompetence is because of who he is under whomever he is under, who will be defeated, Dong Zhuo used Jia Xu and died, and Li Dao Guo Yan used Jia Xu and died! Zhang Xiu used Jia Xu to make a boundless water in a county in Nanyang. So what everyone thinks is that Jia Xu is incompetent!
There are also selfish, Jia Xu ran away again and again before his lord was defeated, this is not selfishness, what is it!
But now the lord of his own family heard this name, so he had to make Xu Shu frown.
"Huh?!" There is also a frown is Jia Xu under the city, Jia Xu's frown is that he doesn't understand why His Royal Highness the King of Shu is so out of shape when he hears his name! Could it be that His Royal Highness the King of Shu knows himself! It's impossible, Jia Xu has never seen Liu Mang at all, even if Liu Mang knows that there is a person of his own, it is defined in the category of incompetence and selfishness!
Jia Xu couldn't help laughing at himself, incompetent and selfish? He's not incompetent, he just doesn't want to show his talent! This will only increase the casualties and troubles, whether it is Dong Zhuo, Li Dao, Guo Yan and Zhang Xiu, they are not the people who unify the world! Giving advice to such a person, just like Chen Gong at the beginning, the final outcome is just a dead end, Jia Xu doesn't want to do this, so he directly chooses not to say anything and not waste time!
Selfish? Who can not be selfish! It's just that Jia Xu's selfishness is based on his own unhinderedness, who would die selflessly! As long as no one provokes Jia Xu, Jia Xu doesn't want to be the enemy of others, right!
Jia Xu looked at the King of Shu on the city wall, he was waiting for Liu Mang's reply, if Liu Mang had the slightest mistake, then Jia Xu might have chosen another path.
