"What, His Royal Highness the King of Shu was blocked by that Liu Pan on the hill outside Xiangyang?" Kuai Liang exclaimed loudly when he heard the news that he came to report.

"Yes! That Liu Pan gave His Royal Highness the King of Shu half an hour, and if it exceeded the hour, he would set fire to the mountain. The messenger reported.

"Half an hour, running from outside the West Gate to the West Gate and then to the inner city will also take half an hour" Kuai Liang's eyes widened.

"Uncle, look, there's a fire over there!" Soon, Kuai Ran saw a fire rising above half of the sky to the west.

"This Liu Pan really set fire to the mountain," everyone present was stunned.

"Get out of the way, I'm going to the West Gate." Kuai Ran is going to go to the West City Gate resolutely, this fire is so turbulent, can this still live, Kuai Ran wants to save his eldest brother, but he was stopped by Kuai Yue.

"It's too late to go now" Kuai Yue shook his head, now that he went there, the fire was also burning, how to save people, and it was useless to go without Liu Biao's order, and he might be injured by mistake.

"Now we can only pray that His Royal Highness the King of Shu Jiren has his own heavenly appearance, and we need to plan early!" Kuai Yue said to everyone, this Liu Pan came back at an inopportune time, and he hid so deeply, which shows that Liu Biao has long been on guard against the Kuai family and the Cai family, if Liu Biao wants to deal with the Kuai family and the Cai family, then the Kuai family and the Cai family will not be killed.

"Big brother!" He knelt on the ground and bowed down to the raging fire to the west, Liu Mang saved his life, but he couldn't help Liu Mang. How likely is it to survive such a fire?

"Hey!" Kuai Yue shook his head with a bitter sigh. Now they are thinking about this, once Yangzhou and Jingzhou go to war. Will this lord Liu Biao drag their Kuai family and Cai family out as scapegoats?

"If he uses us as scapegoats. So he simply didn't do anything, but instead went to Xu Du to seek refuge with Prime Minister Cao Cheng! Cai Mao was there, and her eyes flashed red.

Prime Minister Cao? Kuai Yue looked at Cai Mao, this Cai Mao may have contacted Xu Du a long time ago, and now that he can say such a thing, it seems that someone in this Xu Du has already given him a promise.

"I can't go! At least not now! Kuai Yue directly vetoed Cai Mao's idea, not to mention that they haven't lost yet, if Liu Biao wants to make Liu Pan the heir, this is just a guess on their part, with Liu Zong in hand, they can still fight. Even if Liu Biao really wants to leave the Cai family and the Kuai family and establish Liu Pan as the heir of Jingzhou, then the Kuai family and the Cai family can't betray Jingzhou, the name of this traitor is not good, and it must not be like this until the last step, otherwise, the reputation of these two families will be completely ruined.

And even if they defect at the last step, they can't go to Xudu, they have already offended Jingzhou, and there is a gap between them and Yangzhou. And now Xu Du and Yangzhou also have a grudge, Yangzhou wants to take Yuzhou and eliminate Liu Bei. And Xu Du Cao Cao hung a sheep's head to sell dog meat to help Yuzhou, if this is to take refuge in Xu Du, the enemy of Yangzhou, then the little friendship with Yangzhou will be ruined, to go to Xu Du must pass through the territory of Yangzhou, Xinye is now in the hands of others, if this is intercepted halfway, then I really don't know how to die.

"So what do we do now!" Cai Mao looked at Kuai Yue, and now he can't take refuge in Xu Du, Cai Mao has no more ideas, looking at Kuai Yue, he is counting on Kuai Yue, the former think tank of Jingzhou, to give him a plan.

"Go back and rest!" Kuai Yue said indifferently.

"Go back and rest?" Cai Mao was stunned, what kind of idea is this? Is it to go back and wait for death?

"Go back and wait for the summons of the lord." Kuai Yue said and prepared to leave with his son and younger brother.

"Just waiting?" Cai Mao asked suspiciously.

"Otherwise, what else can you do!" Kuai Yue said indifferently, "We haven't lost yet, don't think about the fish dying and the net is broken." "As long as Liu Biao does not die for a day, and Jingzhou does not change masters for a day, then they have not lost, so what the Kuai family needs now is to lurk, waiting for Liu Biao's summons, and they still have hole cards in their hands that are not the kind of playthings that are held in their hands.

"I see!" Cai Mao nodded, now all they need to think about is to promote Liu Zong to the next Jingzhou pastor. Two days passed quickly, and the fire was extinguished.

From the Kuai family, the Cai family, and other great families in Jingzhou, people came to report the news of Liu Biao, and the lord Liu Biao summoned him.

"Come on, give this general a reward!" Kuai Yue was very stingy with his money, and a guard who was ordered to summon the Kuai family was just doing his duty, but Kuai Yue still asked the housekeeper to give this little guard a few gold.

"This, this, how embarrassing!" This guard is a little shy, this gold is real gold, and this gold is enough for him for several years.

"This general has worked hard, and these are just small things." Kuai Yue smiled at this Liu Biao's guard.

"This, this!"

"I don't know if the general knows, why did the lord call me to wait so quickly, isn't this a rebellion?" It's naturally easy to talk after giving money, after all, it's short to take other people's hands.

"Hey, the lord told Don't drive your lord to go to discuss military affairs, these are not things we can know!" This guard shook his head, he was just a guard, and he wasn't a captain who naturally couldn't interject.

Kuai Yue was a little disappointed when he heard this, and suddenly this personal guard turned around, "But! “

"But what?"

"However, the second son of this lord, General Liu Pan, had a gloomy face when he came back, and it seemed that His Royal Highness the King of Shu had fled."

"Thank you, General!" Kuai Yue heard the news, it was enough, "Come on, give the general a little more." ”

"This is so embarrassing!" I'm embarrassed, but I haven't stopped on this hand.

Sent away this Liu Biao's personal guard, Kuai Yue told his son and brother the news.

"What! His Royal Highness the King of Shu is not dead? Kuai Liang did not calm down and shouted loudly.

"Big brother isn't dead, haha. I knew it. I knew that the eldest brother must be alive, and he has his own natural appearance! On the side, Kuiran was also excited. In the past two days, he has stayed in the room with a sad face.

"I don't know the specific things, but according to the words of the guard, Liu Pan went back with a black face, and there was no body of His Royal Highness the King of Shu, so it should be said that His Royal Highness the King of Shu has escaped." Kuai Yue explained to the two of them, "Now that the lord has summoned me, I will go and find out." "Kuai Yue is ready to go to the governor's mansion.

"Big brother, I'll go with you!" Kuai Liang said on the side, Kuai Liang is also a high-ranking official in Jingzhou. So the two walked together. When I arrived at the Governor's Mansion, I saw that there were many carriages outside the Governor's Mansion, and all the civil and military officers were heading towards the Governor's Mansion, and the two of them were already behind when they came.

Sure enough, His Royal Highness the King of Shu ran away, and it turned out that after this Liu Pan burned the mountain.

Liu Pan's heavy armored cavalry, looking at the raging fire on this hill, many animals were running out of it and running for their lives, and those who couldn't escape turned into barbecue coke.

This Liu Pan besieged the mountain for two days, and camped on the side of the mountain near the water source, waiting for the fire to be extinguished.

The fire was finally extinguished.

"General, this flame has been extinguished! I believe that His Royal Highness the King of Shu has been burned to charcoal! Liu Pan's heavy armored cavalry general stepped forward and said to Liu Pan.

"Huh! It's charred! "Liu Pan didn't have that kind of extraordinary joy, but a kind of regret" This Shu King Liu Mang Liu Hanyang. I still respect him as a hero, do you know what kind of character this Shu King Liu Mang is. Liu Pan explained to the lieutenant general.

"The subordinates don't know!" A thousand-strong general basically can't get to him. He was nothing more than a man who was ordered to fight.

"This person is amazing, you should know about Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong." Liu Pan introduced Liu Mang, the king of Shu, and Liu Hanyang from the side.

"Yes!" Jiangdong Xiaobawang Sun Ce basically no one in Jingzhou does not know, because over the years, this Jiangdong Xiaobawang has not been at war with Jingzhou, and the father of Jiangdong Xiaobawang Sun Ce also died in Jingzhou, so naturally the people know about this person.

"This little Jiangdong overlord has lost in the hands of this person!" Liu Pan said to the thousands of generals under his command.

"Ahh This thousand people will be stunned for a moment, you must know that the reputation of Jiangdong Xiaobawang in Jingzhou is all out of it, and there is really no one in Jingzhou who dares to say that he can win Jiangdong Xiaobawang. But this Shu king Liu Mang actually defeated the Jiangdong Xiaobawang? "No, general, it must be that this person's soldiers and horses are several times that of Jiangdong Sun Ce." This thousand-person general automatically made up for this Shu king Liu Mang with several times the number of men and horses to fight with Jiangdong Sun Ce, and finally defeated Jiangdong Sun Ce.

"Hehe, it's the opposite!" Liu Pan smiled and shook his head, "It was Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong, who brought 100,000 soldiers and horses, and this His Royal Highness the King of Shu only had more than 10,000 soldiers and horses!" Liu Pan told the thousand-strong general about Liu Mang's battle in Lujiang and what Liu Mang did in Yangzhou.

"In this way, this person is really a general." The thousand-man general listened to his general with his mouth wide open, and his eyes couldn't help but widen.

"Now you should know how powerful this person is, it's a pity, it's a pity!" Liu Pan's eyes were full of loneliness, is this a kind of hero cherishing heroes, or a kind of regret "Go, go to the city to find a coffin shop, and build a coffin for His Royal Highness the King of Shu"

"Yes!" The subordinates on the side responded, and soon the war horses headed towards Xiangyang City.

"I've always wanted to be able to have a good fight with His Royal Highness the King of Shu on the battlefield, but now it seems that I don't have this opportunity, but it's a pity, it's a pity." Liu Pan is a young man, and he is in his prime, and the blood in his heart is naturally very strong, so he wants to have a good competition with people of the same generation, Jiangdong Xiaobawang was originally Liu Pan's goal, and these soldiers and horses under his hands also wanted to compete with Sun Ce, and later knew that Jiangdong Sun Ce lost to Liu Mang, the king of Shu, Liu Hanyang, so Liu Pan wanted to fight with Liu Mang, but who knew that Liu Mang, the king of Shu, died like this.

"What's the pity of the general, didn't you already win, general?!" The thousands of people on the side stepped forward and patted their ass, "General, look, this Shu king Liu Mang and Liu Hanyang won the Jiangdong little overlord Sun Ce, but he died in the hands of the general, doesn't it mean that this Shu king Liu Mang and Jiangdong little overlord Sun Ce are not the general's opponents?" ”

This sycophant shot well, belittled two people and raised Liu Pan.

Sure enough, as soon as Liu Pan heard this, he immediately laughed, "Haha." The winner is the king, and the loser is the villain. You can say that again. You can say that again. "He Liu Pan really won, if he really killed Liu Mang, then he Liu Pan really indirectly defeated Liu Mang, the king of Shu, and Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong.

But this premise is that he really wants to kill Liu Mang.

"Report to the general, there is no finding in this woods that Liu Mang, the king of Shu, and other subordinates." The troops who entered the hill to search for the bodies of Liu Mang and others came out and reported to Liu Pan.

"Didn't find it?" Liu Pan frowned.

"It's not that you didn't search carefully!" The thousand people who were patting the horses on the side reprimanded the cavalry under their command.

"General, we have searched the entire mountain and found no trace!" The subordinate hurriedly explained.

"Go, I'll go into the hills with you!" Liu Pan said to his subordinates.

"No, general, the fire on this hill has not been completely extinguished. Now the general is in danger! The thousand people said to Liu Pan, the fire on this hill has been extinguished, but there are still many small flames, if they are rekindled all of a sudden, then they will not be able to get out.

"Let's go!" Liu Pan directly took the lead and prepared to go in, dangerous? When you are a soldier, you don't think about what a threat is.

The thousand generals watched Liu Pan enter, and could only shout, "Come and protect the general." "Thousands of people are going into the hills again.

This small hill is not big in the first place, and it may be lacking for hundreds of people to search, but if thousands of people search together. For so long, it was really like a comb to comb the whole hill for him.

But after combing through it, I really didn't find any human corpses, those were all some animals. The only thing that resembles a little bit is the body of a bear, and there is not a single humanoid skeleton at all.

"Find, find, find! You'll be able to find it! I don't believe it, he can fly out! "The bodies of Liu Mang and others were not found, Liu Pan was furious, he was waiting to prove himself with the corpse of Liu Mang, the king of Shu, but now he has not found it. You must know that when the fire burned the mountain, he surrounded the entire hill for him, how could he take it out.

"General, the general has been found, found!" Some of his men shouted in surprise.

"Did you find the body?" A golden light appeared in Liu Pan's eyes, and the place where his subordinates exclaimed was a cave, could it be that His Royal Highness the King of Shu and his men hid in this cave when the mountain was burned? Then it is no wonder that their bodies were not found.

"No body found!" The men over there shook their heads and replied, "Someone has gone down to investigate." ”

Waiting for a stick of incense outside, a few gray-faced subordinates came out and replied to Liu Pan above, "General Huiyu, there is a dark spring in this cave, although this dark spring does not know where it leads, but it should be possible to get out!" ”

"Dark Spring!" Liu Pan walked out of the cave and looked at this hill and the mountains on the side, which was a tributary of the Yangtze River over there, not big, and even the geographical location was not marked, because people here can pass through the water.

"Damn, damn!" Liu Pan finally knew, why didn't this Shu king Liu Mang come out and surrender, from here, the dark spring in this cave can directly reach the tributary of the Yangtze River outside, and then go out of that tributary.

"General, shall we chase it out?" The subordinates on the side asked, this has already discovered the escape route of Liu Mang and the others, are they still chasing after them?

"Still chasing, chasing your mother!" Liu Pan was angry and burst into foul language, this is still chasing like this, this fire burned for two days and three nights, it is adding two days and three nights of escape time to this Shu king Liu Mang, this is still chasing like this? If it's a plain, it's fine, but it's a mountain range, and this horse riding is still like this.

"General, general, this coffin has been carried!" The subordinates under the hill got up the mountain and said with a smile to Liu Pan, if you want to invite merit, if Liu Pan is happy, wouldn't it be rewarded.

"Get out, get out, get out of here!" Liu Pan screamed hysterically, can he not be angry? thought that the victory was in hand, thought that he was in control of the situation, and burned the mountain, so that the entire Xiangyang City would know, if he caught Liu Mang, the king of Shu, even if there was only a corpse, then everyone would boast that Liu Pan was young and promising, if he was not caught, and let Liu Mang escape, it would be really embarrassing and embarrassing for so long.

"Back to the city!" Liu Pan entered Xiangyang City with a gloomy face. (To be continued......)
