Chapter 484: The Brave Wins When Met on a Narrow Road (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Wei Ba pondered for three days, it was not that there was no result, he had many plans, but he lacked a choice, a judgment. He knew that Lu Xun was thoughtful, so he also took into account all aspects and all possibilities as much as possible, some of which were even unlikely, and he also had to think of what Lu Xun might do and how he should deal with it, so as not to be at a loss at that time. Now, awakened by Guan Feng's words, he immediately abandoned those ideas of being too cautious and seeking perfection and blame, and chose a plan that Lu Xun was most likely to adopt.
Wei Ba got up and looked outside, and through the window, he saw hundreds of soldiers practicing under the leadership of the soldiers. After three days of practice, these newly surrendered soldiers gradually adapted psychologically to the transformation of their subordinates who were no longer Wu Jun, but the subordinates of the gods, and they were in a good mental state, and they were also very attentive during the exercises.
"Sister, I want to eat something, take a rest, and when they are done practicing, let them come to see me."
"Okay." Guan Feng was relieved, answered, and went out to arrange. After a short time, a military soldier brought wine and meat, and Wei Ba swept away the wine and meat like a cloud, and then patted his bulging belly, exhaled with satisfaction, and fell asleep. He hadn't slept well for three days, and now that he had laid down his burden, he snored loudly as soon as he rested his head on the pillow.
Guan Feng sat on the edge of the couch, looking at the sleeping Wei Ba, sighing silently, and his shoulders collapsed unconsciously. Seeing that Wei Ba was nervous, she was even more nervous, Wei Ba was the core of these people, it was the courage of these people, if Wei Ba couldn't let go of his burden, no one would be able to relax.
Wei Ba slept until midnight. When he opened his eyes and saw Guan Feng leaning on the edge of the couch and pretending to sleep, he laughed. As soon as he smiled, Guan Feng woke up and looked at him with his eyes rubbed: "Are you awake?" ”
"Well, I'm awake, what time is it, are they coming?"
"They're waiting, I'll have someone call." Guan Feng glanced at Nanhu and hurriedly walked aside. Make the prepared haode cloth towel and soak it in water. Wring it half-dry, let Wei Ba wipe his face.
As soon as Wei Ba finished cleaning up, Xiangfu, Zhu Wu and others walked in, and as soon as they entered the door, they first looked at Wei Ba's face. Seeing that Wei Ba was in good spirits. They glanced at each other. Take your seats. Not long after, a heavy footstep sounded, and Wang Shuang also arrived.
"Ladies and gentlemen. I received reliable information that the night before yesterday, Lu Xun had arrived in Yuanling and received Pan Jun's men and horses left in the Yuanling camp, about 1,000 people. In addition, his subordinate Lu Lan had also rushed to Chenyang yesterday and took over Chenyang's military power. ”
The husband was silent. The name Lu Xun is like a mountain, pressing on his heart, heavy, and it is very difficult for him to laugh.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a great opportunity, a great opportunity to defeat Lu Xun." Wei Ba clapped his hands and said loudly: "I was worried that Lu Xun was far away in Wuchang, and I didn't have a chance to fight him for a while, but he came by himself." This is great, we must seize this opportunity to defeat him ruthlessly, avenge the first emperor, avenge Mr. Ma, and avenge the descendants of the countless ancestors who died in Yiling. Ladies and gentlemen, do you have faith? ”
Xiangfu raised his head and looked at Wei Ba carefully. Wei Ba had been stuffy in the house for three days, and he could roughly guess what the reason was. Now that Wei Ba is full of confidence, he very much suspects that Wei Ba is just trying to appease people.
"My lord, how are we going to defeat him?"
"Of course, we will meet him and challenge him, as long as he dares to fight, we will defeat him in the open."
"Challenge?" The husband was stunned. It's as simple as that? He also thought that Wei Ba had some tricks, it turned out to be such a stupid method.
"yes, a challenge." Wei Ba waved his hand and began to make arrangements before the battle. There is a large amount of grain in Lipu, and the stakes are very important, and we must not be careless. Wei Ba left Guan Feng to guard Pupu, and the others followed Wei Ba to face Lu Xun.
Although Xiangfu and the others were puzzled, they didn't say anything when they saw that Wei Ba was confident. Everyone dispersed, and Guan Feng naturally stayed. Although she still has no actual contact with Wei Ba, in the eyes of Xiangfu and others, Guan Feng is already Wei Ba's wife.
"Tomorrow's battle is dangerous, you have to be careful."
"I'm not dangerous." Wei Ba shrugged: "I'm worried about you." If the situation is not right, you will burn the grain and withdraw to the mountains, I don't think Lu Lan, the scholar, will dare to chase after it. You bring half a month's worth of food, and as long as you enter the mountain, you should be safe. ”
"I won't retreat without your news." Guan Feng said categorically: "I will guard Lipu until Zuihou is a soldier." ”
Wei Ba frowned and didn't say anything more.
The next day, Wei Ba left Guan Feng with 700 men, and he took 2,000 people out of the city. After defeating Sun Jun, he got more than fifty war horses, and he could finally stop walking. In addition to him, Xiangfu and Zhu Wu were also assigned mounts, and Wang Shuang was the most special, and he was assigned two horses, one to carry a man, and one to carry his heavy armor and long knife.
More than a dozen warriors rode war horses, protecting him in front and behind, Qing Suo'er and Nanhu also rode on war horses, and their respective trained divine dogs ran in front of and behind the horses, making the war horses a little nervous, and snorting from time to time.
There was a lot of traffic between Lipu and Chenyang, and there were a large number of ships, although they were not warships, but they were not used to transport troops. Wei Ba sailed down, through a long canyon, and came to the outside of Chenyang City in the afternoon of the next day. After arriving outside the city, he did not set up camp, but immediately ordered to go ashore and line up, and at the same time sent people to challenge Lu Lan.
Lu Lan had long known about Wei Ba's arrival, and he strictly followed Lu Xun's arrangement and closed his door, even though he knew that Wei Ba only had 2,000 people, which was not more than the people in his city. Seeing that he didn't dare to go out of the city, Wei Ba sent people to scold the formation, and dozens of barbarians with loud voices were already ready, sitting on the ground in front of the city, and scolding. They scolded very badly, and they were also very organized, starting with the history of the Lu family, saying that Lu Kang was loyal to the Han Dynasty and would rather die than give in, and was trapped in Lujiang by Sun Ce, and there were more than 100 deaths in the clan. Now Lu Xun and Lu Lan do not think about family feuds, but are greedy for profit, recognize thieves as their fathers, oppose the Han for the sake of Sun Quan, and commit a number of unforgivable crimes, they are the unfilial descendants of the Lu family.
The barbarians scolded happily, but Lu Lan was red-faced when he heard it, and he gritted his teeth with hatred. However, Lu Xun reminded him before he came, Wei Ba has a very bad mouth, and in order to provoke him to go out of the city to fight, he is likely to scold a lot of ugly words, and the situation in front of him is expected by Lu Xun, of course he will not be fooled.
Lu Lan adhered to Lu Xun's instructions, refused to go out of the city to fight, and did not give Wei Ba any chance, of course, it would not be wrong. But in this way, the morale of both sides is completely different. Wei Ba was killed in the city, Lu Lan didn't dare to fight, and was scolded to the eighth generation of ancestors, and even others felt that they couldn't bear it, but he didn't react at all, which was too embarrassing.
Seeing that there was no reaction in the city, the more the barbarians scolded, the happier they became, and the more they scolded, the more ugly they became, zuihou They gave Lu Lan a name: tortoise, saying that Lu Lan was like a tortoise, he only knew how to shrink his neck and shoot in the big shell of Chenyang, and he didn't dare to fight. When the barbarians shouted tortoises in unison, the morale of the city was extremely low, and Lu Lan's face turned purple.
But Lu Lan insisted on refusing to fight, even if there were more than a dozen warriors willing to go out of the city to meet the challenge, he would not agree.
Wei Ba didn't stay in Chenyang for a long time, and after scolding outside the city, he asked people to draw a lot of big turtles in the open space outside the city that were big enough for the people in the city to see, and then boarded the boat again, went down the river, and went straight to Yuanling in a grand manner, as if he was sure that Lu Lan would not dare to chase him.
Lu Lan did not chase him, and for the sake of prudence, he did not send someone out of the city to check until the next morning. When the soldiers of the city saw the tortoises, they felt extremely ashamed.
scolded happily outside Chenyang City, Lu Lan didn't even dare to show his head, and the husband and others, who were still a little apprehensive, breathed a sigh of relief, and also had some confidence in the upcoming battle against Lu Xun. That night, they talked with Wei Ba in the middle of the night, smiling and high-spirited.
Although he was sitting on the boat, Wei Ba was not idle, he called the people in charge of the scolding formation, rewarded them with some money, and then encouraged them to think of more lethal scolding. He promised that if anyone could scold Lu Xun so much that he couldn't stand it, he would go out of the city to face the battle, and he would be rewarded! Those who want to be officials can be promoted, and those who want to get rich can be rewarded.
The barbarians took the real copper coins, and nodded happily, they didn't hear that they could still receive rewards for scolding people, and they were full of energy, and they were full of energy to scold Lu Xun out of the city.
On the morning of the third day, Wei Ba and the others arrived outside Yuanling City. With the experience in Chenyang, the soldiers were familiar with the road, left the boat and landed on the shore, and lined up outside Yuanling City. Those barbarians who had been pondering the scolding for two days were waiting for the order to perform, but they saw the Chinese army's war drums thundering, waving flags, and slowly walking to the front of the formation step by step.
It was Wei Ba and Wang Shuang.
Wei Ba sat on his horse with his head on his armor and a big coat, his waist was straight, his right hand was holding the spear tightly, hiding behind him, and his left hand was raised, waving to the soldiers who were looking at him with burning eyes. Wang Shuang walked in front of the horse holding the battle flag blown by the north wind, holding his head high and his air was magnificent. He was tall and amazing, and the tall battle flag was as stable as Mount Tai in his hand, without a little shaking.
Wei Ba is handsome and graceful, Wang Shuang is tall and mighty, both of them are majestic, although they only have one step and one ride, but they come slowly, but they have walked out of the momentum of thousands of troops and horses, which makes the barbarians excited, and the blood is boiling, and the eyes of barbarian girls such as Qing Suoer and Nanhu even pop up little stars.
Wei Ba walked straight to the front of the formation and stood fifty steps away from the city gate. With both arms, Wang planted the flagpole on the ground, then drew his long knife and waited for it. Wei Ba kicked the war horse lightly, took two steps forward, pointed at the city gate with his halberd, and shouted: "Lu Xun, Wei Ba is here, do you dare to fight?" ”
This sound was full of anger, and it was heard clearly in the city and under the city. As soon as Wei Ba's voice fell, without waiting for the city to react, Xiangfu excitedly raised his war knife and shouted: "Fight!" War! War! ”
More than 2,000 soldiers immediately responded, they stomped on the ground with their weapons and roared in unison:
"Fight!"
"Fight!"
"Fight!" (To be continued......)
