Chapter 900: The End of the Road (2)
Liu Bei fled all the way, don't say it, Liu Bei is really very lucky, the Bingzhou wolf cavalry sent by Lu Bu has eliminated the interception troops left by Guan Yu, and scattered the soldiers and horses in his hands in order to find Liu Bei's army and then eliminate Liu Beijun.
However, these five thousand wolf riders, according to a team of five hundred people, ten pairs of men and horses, did not find the slightest shadow of Liu Bei.
But Liu Bei's luck was always able to make him stagger the search range of those wolf riders in the states.
Liu Bei's luck was very good, but one of the people on the side was in a hurry.
That person is Dove.
Dove was very anxious because he had come this way. Liu Bei will inevitably flee from Nanyang County, and once he crosses the Yangtze River and goes to Xiangyang, this will not be easy.
Dove's eyes rolled.
"Hahahaha, haha!" Liu Bei laughed out loud again.
The subordinates on the side wondered why Liu Bei was laughing again.
"This smile is not laughing at others, but laughing at myself!" Liu Bei smiled and said, "I laugh at this God, they are all helping me, Liu Mang and Liu Hanyang, you have exhausted your organs, and you are the camp of the Yangtze River Water Army, and you are the wolf rider of Bingzhou, but so what, a few times you Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, and Lu Bu have done their best, and they can't help me Liu Bei!" Destiny is mine, destiny is mine! ”
Liu Bei's army has reached the edge of the Yangtze River, as long as it transitions to the other side of the Yangtze River, it will be Xiangyang City, and it will be his Liu Bei's territory.
But he, Liu Bei, had a very irritable thing.
There was no boat, and I finally found a boat owner over there, but it was just a small boat.
It is possible to ferry up to two people.
If Liu Bei runs fast. The large forces behind did not follow. Then Liu Bei didn't say a word. Pulled up Pang Shiyuan and prepared to leave by boat.
As for what kind of guard, what kind of Liaohua, let him die.
As long as he, Liu Bei, is alive.
But not now, because these are all by his Liu Bei's side, and they are all looking at him Liu Bei, and Liao Hua's eyes over there are even more complicated.
It seems that there is an idea of being abandoned by Liu Bei again.
Liu Bei was annoyed in his heart, didn't these people drag him Liu Bei back, he knew that he wouldn't have fled with them.
Liu Bei forgot about it. Before, these hundred horsemen tried desperately to protect him from the encirclement.
However, he was angry in his heart, but Liu Bei was very good at acting on the surface.
"How can you cross the Yangtze River with only one small boat!" Liu Bei sighed and said.
"Lord, the matter is urgent, a small boat is enough to send the two away, please get on the boat quickly!" Pang Shiyuan, who was on the side, said to Liu Bei.
"How can this be done, if I am gone, what will you do, no. No, I'm Liu Bei Liu Xuande. It's not yet to the point of living alone, you follow me and rush out together, and you have to go back together! Liu Bei was very righteous and Ling Ran.
"Lord, you are the most important thing, as long as you can go back to Xiangyang to preside over the overall situation, what will we have even if we sacrifice!" Pang Shiyuan is still acting over there.
Liu Bei had to wait for the generals over there to persuade him to leave by boat, and in this kind of inseparability, he reluctantly got on a boat and left to go back to Xiangyang. In this way, he can live up to his name of benevolence, righteousness and morality.
But left and right, waiting for almost a stick of incense, but still no one stood up to persuade him like this.
The guards and Liao Hua and others all looked at him so directly, everyone knew that if they stayed any longer, in addition to surrendering, they would be killed in battle.
No one wants to die like that.
Liu Bei couldn't wait for persuasion, and his face turned extremely red.
Could it be that he, Liu Bei, is ready to slap himself in the face and leave directly?
If Liu Bei did this, maybe these personal guards who were loyal to him just now would be able to tie Liu Bei up and go to the Yangzhou army.
After all, the lord who will be abandoned at any moment, what is there to be loyal to.
At this time, Dove over there also stepped forward, "Lord, you better go with the military advisor first!" I remember going down the river, there is also a fleet, and I can go back to Xiangyang when I get there! ”
Finally someone persuaded him, Liu Bei simply regarded Dove as a bosom friend, and Dove gave him the stairs. Liu Bei has already decided, and after waiting to return to Xiangyang, he will inevitably give this Dove a promotion and make a fortune.
Even Pang Shiyuan is also very grateful to Dove, the gentleman is not conducive to the dangerous wall.
Pang Shiyuan was also unwilling to stay on the north bank of the Yangtze River, and he could only lay out if he went back to Xiangyang.
If at this moment, Liu Bei fully agreed, then everything happened without incident, and he Liu Bei could also go back to Xiangyang with Pang Shiyuan to reorganize the army.
But it's good to die or not, this Liu Bei Liu Xuande has said too much about his benevolence, righteousness and morality, and he pretended to be all at once.
"No, how can I go alone, I want to leave with all the soldiers!" Liu Bei was still waiting for Dove to persuade him again.
But Dove's words made Liu Bei dumbfounded, "The lord is benevolent and righteous, so the lord is not too late, let's wait and set off as soon as possible!" ”
"Poof!" Liu Bei was about to spurt out a mouthful of old blood, and said okay, let me go. I said okay, let me go back first.
Looking at the hopeful eyes below, Liu Bei knew that if he repented now, this name of benevolence and righteousness would inevitably be finished.
Pang Shiyuan is also a black line in his head now, and this lord is really speechless.
"Lord, this enemy pursuer is still behind, let's set off quickly!" For the sake of his life, Pang Shiyuan could only urge Liu Bei to leave quickly.
If you go to the lower reaches of the Yangtze River to find a fleet, it's better to find a fleet than to stay here and wait for death.
"Drive!"
Liu Bei and his entourage set off again.
After walking for less than an hour, I found a small fleet of boats cruising downstream by the river.
"Is there really a fleet?" Pang Shiyuan frowned when he saw the fleet over there.
"There's a boat, quick, quick, get on the boat and leave!" Liu Bei's face showed joy. If you have a boat, you can go back to Xiangyang, which means that it is safe.
"Slow!" Pang Shiyuan stopped the lord Liu Bei. Instead, he looked at Dove over there.
"Lord Toku. This is not a water city, let alone a port, and it is only far from the nearest county seat in Jiangbei. Why is there such a fleet here? Pang Shiyuan frowned and asked Dove over there.
This water, that is really a chicken rib, the merchants will definitely not come, there is no market, and the people will not choose this road to cross the river, because it is too far.
How can fishing boats be assembled into a fleet? It doesn't make sense how you look at all of this.
"Mr. Dove, what the hell is going on?" Liu Bei also looked at Dove over there, and Liu Bei was still very concerned about the life of the official.
"Huh!" Dove smiled awkwardly, he didn't expect this Pang Shiyuan to be so delicate, but fortunately, this fleet was originally arranged by Dove, but it was not to harm Liu Bei.
"Don't hide it from the Lord Army, I prepared this fleet early!" Dove told the truth.
"Memorized early? Do you want to plot against you? ”
"How dare you, it's just that you've been with the lord for a long time, so naturally you'll have more hands!" Dove could only reply like this
What is called following the lord for a long time. Naturally, you'll have a lot of hands.
It's just a naked slap in the face.
What do you mean by that? Liu Bei's face was already gloomy.
It's no wonder that Dove, if he follows a lord. He was a often defeated general, nicknamed Liu Ranran, who ran from Guanzhong to Hebei, from Hebei to the Central Plains, and then from the Central Plains to Jingzhou.
As long as it is a normal person, they will have more hands to prevent it from running away with the lord too late.
"Alright, alright, don't say any more, it's true to hurry up and get on the boat!" Liu Bei took pictures for the sake of his life, but he still let go of this matter. As for whether going back to Xiangyang counts as Zhang, that's another story.
"More than 100 cavalrymen, all of whom have given up their horses, can still ride these small boats.
"Your Excellency, you're here!" Dove's men saw Dove and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his head.
"Quick, sail with me as soon as possible, we will go to the other side of the Yangtze River!" Dove said to the boatman next to him.
"Yes, let's go, let's go!" Immediately the foreman of the ship left the cabin and walked out.
When they reached the deck, they shouted loudly, "Set sail, sail!" ”
After shouting this, he found a place for everyone and opened a strip of cloth in his hand.
The fleet went down the river, and Nanyang was still some distance from Xiangyang.
Liu Bei and the others have no war horses, and they can't go by land, the speed is too slow, and they can only take the waterway, because in this way they can reach Xiangyang faster to reorganize the army.
Liu Bei walked to the bow of the boat, looked at the mighty Yangtze River, and couldn't help but feel poetic.
"The Yangtze River has long and monstrous waves, take a boat to break the waves and return to Xiangyang, and gather fierce generals to conquer all directions!"
"Good poetry, good poetry!" Pang Shiyuan directly sent a sycophant, "Lord, it is really the son of destiny, so he can have such talent, waiting for us to return to Xiangyang, it must be a dragon into the water, a tiger returning to the mountain, it will definitely make a difference, waiting for Yangzhou Liu Mang to slack off us, that is when we enter the Central Plains!" ”
"Yes!" Liu Bei nodded, and began to sneer, "That Liu Mang Xiao'er just took shit luck, not ability, Shi Yuan, you look at the rolling Yangtze River, we are just a small fleet, if it is on the Yangtze River, then Liu Mang arranges any sailor, we will definitely not be able to escape, it's a pity, it's a pity, that Liu Mang is just a mediocre talent!" ”
Liu Bei's resentment towards Liu Mang is very deep, and he never leaves Liu Mang.
But whether it is in terms of strength or character, he Liu Bei is not an opponent.
I can only use other aspects to make a mockery.
Pang Shiyuan nodded.
Suddenly, there was an exclamation from among the soldiers on the deck, "What is that?" ”
I saw him pointing ahead and screaming in horror.
Follow the place where the soldier is pointing.
A warship was riding the waves, and it didn't have all the tall buildings of a normal ship, but it was fast, but it was much bigger than a dinghy.
"Galen ship?!" Liu Bei's eyes widened, this is simply a cheat, this just said that this Liu Mang is a fool and there is no placement of soldiers and horses in the Yangtze River, so that they can go down the river so smoothly.
Before he could say this, the enemy came.
Galen ships, this kind of ships are only available in Yangzhou, and the only few remaining Galen ships in Yangzhou have been given to the Yangtze River Navy Battalion, and the others have been converted into merchant ships.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack! Get ready for battle! "Liu Bei's personal guards are ready to pick up the sword under the command of Liao Hua.
However, the Galen ship of the Yangzhou Army over there did not give Liao Hua and others the slightest possibility of engaging in a broadside battle, and began to beat the bow of the ship horizontally.
Gun doors were exposed, and bed crossbows revealed his huge arrows.
"How could it be, how could it be!" Pang Shiyuan was the first to react, they went down the river, this Yangtze River is boundless, such a large place, why did they encounter this Yangzhou naval army here.
And looking at the sails raised by this Yangzhou navy, it doesn't look like it's patrolling at all, but it looks like it's rushing directly towards them.
Without even asking, he began to open the cannon door and pull out the bed crossbow, as if he had identified them.
There are moles!
This was Pang Shiyuan's first reaction, and the second reaction was to glaring at Dove over there.
"Dove, it's you, you're the one who brought them here!" Pang Shiyuan looked at Dove viciously over there.
Dove had already separated from Pang Shiyuan and them at a safe distance.
"It's me!" Dove didn't defend either, but looked at Liu Bei and Pang Shiyuan over there.
It was he Dove who asked his men to go to the bow of the ship to deliver a message to the Yangzhou navy.
This bow was already familiar with the Yangtze River stream, and he was naturally more familiar with where his fleet would be and which waterway to take, so he took the battleships of the Yangzhou Navy early and waited for the arrival of the fleet.
"Why, Dove, I Liu Bei admit that I haven't treated you badly!" Liu Bei also reflected, he was sold by Dove.
"Haha, didn't you treat me badly? What about my brother? Dove looked at Liu Bei and Pang Shiyuan coldly.
"Your senior brother?" Liu Bei was stunned for a moment.
"Naturally, it's Senior Brother Sun Qiansun! My senior brother and I studied under our teacher Zheng Xuan, for you Liu Bei, senior brother followed you before he finished his studies and helped you govern his command, which can be described as loyal, but how did you Liu Bei treat my senior brother? Dove questioned Liu Bei.
Sun Qian was not incapable, but he didn't learn at all, so he left halfway through Zheng Xuan's school and went to seek refuge with Liu Bei.
Therefore, Zheng Xuancai said that his ability is limited and he can only govern one county.
"Gongyou! Me, me! Liu Bei wanted to defend something, but everything was so pale and weak.
"For the sake of this Pang Shiyuan beside you, you abandoned my senior brother like that, once is not enough to pay back twice, okay, okay!" Dove sneered at Liu Bei.
"Since you, the lord, are unkind, then don't blame our senior brother for being unjust!" Dove said and jumped directly into the Yangtze River with the boatmen.
Well, now, the speed is not comparable to that of the Galen ship, and now there is no boatman who can compare with it.
"Dove, Sun Qian, I, Liu Bei and you, will not give up!" (To be continued......)
