Chapter 603: Trying Kong Ming
The commander of the 22 Jiang Bai'er elite soldiers saw that Guan Yu and Xu Shu were fleeing from old age, and instead of being abundant, there was a dead silence all over his body. I only heard the white-eared elite soldier commander shouting: "Fight to the end, kill!" After speaking, he pounced directly on Zhang Xiu with a knife!
Zhang Quan saw that this commander was coming fiercely, and he was afraid that Zhang Xiu would not be able to resist under his strength, so he held a halberd to meet him. And Zhang Xiu has already used the defensive marksmanship that he has not used for a long time, no matter how fierce the attack of the white-eared elite soldiers is, he can't break through his watertight defense.
At this time, Zhao Yun also rushed into the formation single-handedly, the gentian spear flew up and down, although the white-eared elite soldiers were strong, but they could not stop Zhao Yun's ferocity.
When Huang Zhong arrived with the army half an hour later, the three hundred white-eared elite soldiers were all slaughtered by Zhang Xiu, Zhao Yun and Zhang Quan. Of course, the two who killed the most were Zhao Yun and Zhang Quan, and Zhang Xiu was defense-oriented.
Seeing the situation here, Huang Zhong hurriedly bowed his hand to Zhang Xiu and said, "The end will be late, please forgive the lord!" ”
Zhang Xiu saw it, but waved his hand and said, "This is not Hansheng's responsibility,"
Before Zhang Xiu finished speaking, he saw a small boat on the river coming, and after Gan Yang got off the boat, he came to Zhang Xiu's side and arched his hand: "Report to the general, the horse that Guan Yu is riding is running too fast, and the general can't catch up, please forgive the lord!" ”
Zhang Xiu heard this, nodded the fork, and said, "Okay." Han Sheng, you scattered the scouts and searched to the east and north. Although the world is big, but the only ones who can accommodate the two of them are Xuchang and Jiangdong, and then send an order to Xingba, let him intercept the ships going back and forth, and report back immediately if he encounters the two! ”
Huang Zhong heard it and promised it.
Zhang Xiu continued: "The rest of the people will return to Jiangling City with Ben first. Zilong, you will send someone to find Meng Qi and Ziyi, and if you see them, let them go back to Jiangling City on their own. ”
After finishing speaking, Zhang Xiu left Huang Zhong's headquarters and 10,000 thunder horses to ride with him, and he led the rest of the men and horses to look at Jiangling. Along the way, Zhang Xiu asked Zhang Quan and Gan Yang: "Why are you on the river?" ”
Zhang Quan didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Zhang Xiu, but just looked at the sweet soil with his eyes. Gan Yang replied: "Report to the general, it was Mr. Li who asked him to take a small boat down the river to intercept passing ships in the Yangtze River. I met the boss on the river, leading people to do ordinary things, "Well, it's doing ordinary things, so we and the others got together." Then intercepted the people Xu Shu arranged to answer here, and then the boss asked his subordinates to pretend to be fierce battles, and we pretended to be Jingzhou soldiers to trick Liu Bei into getting on the boat. ”
Zhang Xiu heard this, nodded clearly, and asked Zhang Quan instead: "Then why did you come to the river?" ”
Zhang Quan replied: "It was Mr. Xiaozhi who asked General Xingba to inform Quan, and the strategy of the fierce battle was also arranged by Mr. Fa in view of Liu Bei and Xu Shu's mentality. ”
After finishing speaking, Zhang Quan said with some luck: "Fortunately, there is Mr. Xiaozhi's arrangement this time, otherwise Liu Bei may not be tricked." ”
When Gan Yang heard this, he was a little surprised: "What does the boss mean by this? And Zhang Xiu looked at Zhang Quan with a smile.
I saw Zhang Quan say seriously: "This matter is because Quan later heard the words of those white-eared elite soldiers to know the flaw, it is really Liu Bei's subordinates who called Guan Yu not called General Guan, but called Junhou, and called Zhang Fei called the third general." When Fang tricked Liu Bei into getting on the boat, Quan shouted General Guan, fortunately Liu Bei's attention was on Guan Yu, otherwise I am afraid that it would fall short. After saying that, he sighed lightly.
Zhang Xiu heard it, but said with a smile: "After one thing, grow wise, this is a good thing." Moreover, even if you can't trick Liu Bei into getting on the boat, you may not be able to kill Liu Bei. Zhang Quan and Gan Yang listened and nodded at the same time.
Zhang Xiu led everyone back to Jiangling City, and at this time, the bureau deduced by Pang Tong, Zhuge Liang and 6 Xun together was over. However, Pang Tong asked several people present to keep it secret, so Zhang Xiu didn't know about the appearance of this game, and naturally he didn't know the result.
Gangneung Fortress is too guarded in the house.
At this time, all of Zhang Xiu's subordinates gathered, and even Huang Zhong returned to the city because he couldn't get Guan Yu and Xu Shu. Under the gathering of everyone, the atmosphere in the hall was relatively relaxed at this time.
I only heard Zhang Xiu laugh and said: "If you can successfully kill Liu Bei this time, it is still your life, I will replace the wine with tea here first, and give you a cup!" After speaking, he raised the teacup on the table and drank it with everyone.
After Ma Qiu drank it, he said: "General, this tea has faded out of the bird, it would be best if it could be exchanged for wine!" ”
Ma on the side glared at Ma Qiu and scolded, "Stinky boy, which is your turn to speak here?" Ma's words made Ma Qiu seem to have become a mouse who had seen a cat, and when he saw Ma Qiu's appearance, everyone laughed in unison. Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "There will naturally be a banquet after the meeting, everyone can rest assured!" As soon as Zhang Xiu's words came out, all the generals were overjoyed and patted Zhang Xiu's ass together.
After the atmosphere calmed down a little, Li Ru spoke: "Although Liu Bei was successfully killed this time, and Jingzhou was completely accepted, the two great enemies of Cao Cao and Sun Jian have not been eliminated. And about Yu and Xu Shu, the two fish that slipped through the net, the lord wants to determine the world, and there is still a final journey to go. ”
Zhang Xiu knew that Li Ru was reminding him not to be proud, so he nodded humbly and said, "What Wen Wei said is not bad. There is one more thing to say here, if you meet Guan Yu on the battlefield in the future, remember to be careful, this person has already made another breakthrough in martial arts, and if he is not careful, his life may be in danger! ”
Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Ma, Tai Shici and others listened. A look of surprise flashed across his face at the same time. Zhao Yun thought about it for a while, and then said: "This is not impossible, Zhang Fei and Liu Bei were killed one after another, and it is not impossible for Guan Yu to make a breakthrough after being stimulated by this." ”
Zhang Quan heard this, but there was a look of clarity on his face. Before, he was surprised by the sudden decline in Zhang Xiu's combat power, but now that he heard what Zhang Xiu said, he already understood the cause and effect. So he also said: "Uncles, Guan Yu Breakthrough Spring has seen with his own eyes, his strength is no longer comparable to the original, you must pay attention." ”
With the reminder of Zhang Xiu's father and son, all the generals nodded, as for whether they remembered it or not, Zhang Xiu didn't know, but he would definitely be much more cautious when sending his subordinates to fight in the future.
After saying this, Zhang Xiu smiled and said: "This time Meng Qi captured Wei Yan, Ziyi said that he would surrender, and the two of them should make a credit, and in the future, the general will add another general." ”
The two of them listened and smiled at the same time and arched their hands.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiu turned his head to look at Pang Tong and Ma Liang, and asked, "Shi Yuan, Li Chang, and the rest of the Jingzhou scholars?" ”
The Jingzhou scholars that Zhang Xiu mentioned were the Wenchen who fled to Jiangling with Liu Bei, such as Yi and Pan Rui, and this time Jiangling fell, and they were all taken.
I saw Ma Liang arch his hand and said: "Back to the lord, after the persuasion of Liang and Shiyuan, they all decided to serve the lord." ”
Zhang Xiu smiled when he heard the old second palm! "Good! , but the next one, Zhang Xiu thought of a more outstanding character, that is, Wolong Zhuge Liang!
Zhang Xiu pondered for a moment and said: "This is the end of today's meeting, and we will discuss how to use troops again in three days." When everyone heard this, they were not surprised, and after the promise, they gradually dispersed.
A group of generals dispersed, leaving only Pang Tong, 6 Xun and Li Ru waiting in Pang, Zhang Xiu smiled and said, "Sure enough, I can't hide it from you, Shiyuan, lead the way, Pang Tong answered, and took Zhang Xiu out of the Taishou Mansion."
Zhuge Liang turned out to be Liu Bei's most important adviser, and now although Liu Bei is dead, he has not been kicked out of his residence, so the place where he lives is not far from Taishou Mansion. Zhang Xiu and his entourage arrived in front of the mansion where Zhuge Liang lived, but they heard the sound of "tuk tuk" constantly coming from inside.
Here Zhang Xiu, 6 Xun and Li Ru showed strange faces, but Pang Tong, who was walking in front, had an unnatural face, but fortunately his back was to the three of them, so his unnaturalness was not seen by everyone.
Zhang Xiu saw that Pang Tong didn't move before he came to the gate with them, so he said strangely: "Shiyuan, what's wrong?" ”
Pang Tongyi listened to Zhang Xiu's words, immediately woke up, and replied: "It's nothing." After saying that, he walked to the door and knocked lightly on the door with his right hand.
In the room, the muffled sound of "tuk tuk tuk" stopped, and Zhang Xiu clearly noticed that Pang Tong's figure was stagnant for a moment. Soon a "clang" was heard, and the door was opened. A woman of eighteen or nineteen years old came out of it, and judging by her dress, she was already married, but she was a young woman.
I saw that this woman was yellow and black-skinned, and if you look at it from the eyes of this era, she is definitely an ugly girl. However, in Zhang Xiu's eyes, this woman's yellow is not completely yellow, but black with yellow, which is innate. But before the crossing, dyeing it like this color is called fashion, so Zhang Xiu didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this woman's color. As for the dark skin, Zhang Xiu could see at a glance that it was often in the sun that made the complexion darker. However, it is not as black as the bottom of the pot, but as wheat-colored as Zhurong. Looking at this woman's face again, it is exquisite, but in Zhang Xiu's eyes, she is a little beauty.
When this strict woman saw Pang Tong in front of the door, surprise flashed in her eyes, and she said excitedly: "Brother Pang, why are you here!" After finishing speaking, he shouted into the house: "Ah Liang, Brother Dang is coming to you."
Pang Tong's eyes swept the head crossed on this woman's head with some complicated eyes, and said with a sigh: "Ah Yue, I didn't come to find Kong Ming this time,"
Before she finished speaking, she saw that the woman was already looking in the direction of Zhang Xiu, and said with a faint smile: "You led the general to find Ah Liang." ”
Listening to his tone, he must have guessed Zhang Xiu's identity. 6 Xun and Li Ru glanced at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes. Zhang Xiu didn't show surprise, at this time he had already guessed the identity of this woman.
Sure enough, a tall and handsome man soon walked out of the house. Seeing this, Pang Tong shouted: "Kong Ming! ”
At this time, Zhang Xiu had already seen this person holding a goose feather fan, his eyes flashed with wisdom, and his expression was calm, Zhang Xiu couldn't help but secretly admire: "Sure enough, he is the first wise man after three coins, and his demeanor is unmatched."
After Zhuge Liang walked out, he smiled and said: "Lady, your guest is coming, let's go and prepare, the young woman heard it, and went in after answering."
Zhang Xiu said secretly: "Sure enough, it's Huang Yueying!" After thinking about it, he swept Pang Tong's eyes and said strangely: "But there seems to be something between the three of them Zhang Xiu thinks so, but he hooks up the curiosity in his heart, which can be regarded as the thing that Zhang Xiu wants to hear most clearly after coming to the end of the Han Dynasty." At the same time, I secretly decided in my heart that when I went back, I would catch Pang Tong and ask for a clear understanding.
At this time, Zhuge Liang walked in front of Zhang Xiu and arched his hand: "The general can come, but it is full of luxury, please inside." Zhang Xiu was also polite, and led Li Ru and a few people into the mansion.
After entering, Zhang Xiu looked around, and secretly praised: "Liu Bei really treats Zhuge Liang very kindly, this mansion is probably better than the Taishou Mansion, and when he was looking around, Zhang Xiu glanced at it and saw a lot of wood scraps in the open space on the side.
But at this time, Zhuge Liang had already led everyone into the hall, and Zhang Xiu also put away his thoughts. Zhang Xiu sat on the top, but Zhuge Liang did not sit on the main seat, but accompanied everyone to the guest seat. At this time, Huang Yueying had already offered the hot tea fruit, but Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "This is Liang Cong. The tea picked in it is slightly different from what the general usually drinks. ”
Zhang Xiu heard it and said with a smile: "Mr. Wolong personally picked the tea, and he was going to try it and picked up the hot tea on the table and tasted it." I just feel that as soon as this tea is in my mouth, there is a sweet feeling coming to me, and after entering the throat, the sweetness spreads to the whole mouth. At this time, the aroma of tea also spreads throughout the mouth, and then comes out of the nose. The sweetness is gone, but there is a hint of sweetness, although it is not thick. However, it has a different taste.
After Zhang Xiu drank it, he said with a smile: "It's really good tea!" ”
Zhang Xiu put down the porcelain cup, and Pang Tong and others below picked it up and drank it, and then naturally applauded. After being polite for a while, Zhang Xiu glanced at Pang Tong, but turned to the topic.
I only heard Pang Tong smile first: "Kong Ming, the general is visiting today, but he wants to ask about the general trend of the world."
Zhuge Liang heard this, shook the goose feather fan and said, "Now that the world is divided into three parts, the general has already gained half of it, plus he has occupied a favorable area, and dominating the world is just around the corner, so why ask Zhang Xiu again but said with a smile: "The general wants to know, if Kong Ming is the general, will he conquer the south first, or the north?" ”
Zhuge Liang still looked like an understatement, and said with a smile: "The general's advisers are like rain, so why bother asking Liang." Shi Yuan alone and the other two talents are no longer under the light, brainstorming, and the general has his own conclusion
Zhang Xiu saw that Zhuge Liang looked like he didn't eat oil and salt, but he was helpless. After sighing, he said: "Mr. Shuijing once said that Wolong and Phoenix Chicks have to settle the world with one ear. Kong Ming is talented, but he wants to ask Mr. for help." Zhang Xiu said this very sincerely.
Zhuge Liang looked at Zhang Xiu's sincere gaze, but he sighed and said: "Uncle Huang treats Liang as a national soldier, and Liang can't help him achieve his achievements, and he is already ashamed of him." Now that Uncle Huang died at the hands of the general, how can Liang help the general again? Today, even if the general doesn't come to find Liang, Liang will also look for the general
When Zhang Xiu heard this, he was shocked, and he had some ominous premonitions in his heart, so he hurriedly asked, "I don't know what Mr. Kong Ming is going to do?" ”
