Chapter 16: Mind Control
Gangneung Fortress is obviously different from other places, with flags waving on the city walls and being heavily guarded.
At each city gate, there are nearly 100 soldiers in full armor to strictly check the people entering and exiting, and they are not allowed to enter the city without road guides or documents.
Liu Dou did not rush into the city, but parked the iron horse in the jungle in the distance, and hid in the dark with Zhang Fei to observe for a while.
Seeing that the banner of the Han Dynasty was still fluttering on the city wall, Zhang Fei and Liu Dou's hanging hearts fell to the ground, glanced at each other, and were glad that they finally rushed to Jiangling before Mi Fang dedicated the city.
After figuring out the general situation of Jiangling City, Liu Dou made a suggestion: "Third uncle, you'd better enter the city unnoticed, so that Mi Fang can be caught off guard." ”
Zhang Feihan laughed: "Hehe...... Almost all of our Han soldiers know your third uncle, how can you be unaware? You can help your third uncle think of a way. ”
Looking at Zhang Fei with such obvious characteristics, Liu Dou couldn't help but feel worried.
Maybe the soldiers of Shu Han can't say what the lord Liu Bei looks like, but when it comes to Guan Erye, who has a face like a heavy jujube, a three-foot beautiful beard, danfeng eyes, and silkworm eyebrows, and Zhang Sanye, who has a leopard head and ringed eyes, and a swallow jaw and tiger whiskers, even if he has never seen it, he has heard of it.
Zhang Fei looked like this and stood at the gate of the city, but he was afraid that Mi Fang would immediately know that Zhang Fei had arrived in Jiangling.
Mi Fang's position is the Taishou of Nanjun, and after Guan Yu left, he became the supreme governor of Jiangling, since he was able to successfully surrender the city to Wu, it means that he now has absolute control over Jiangling.
Although Zhang Fei can fight, he doesn't have any soldiers and horses around him after all.
Since Mi Fang was determined to surrender to Wu and planned to put Guan Yu to death, how could he be afraid of Zhang Fei, who had no soldiers?
If you rush into the city like this, I am afraid that not only will you not be able to stop Mi Fang from offering the city, but you will also give away your head in vain.
Today is already the eighth day of October, and the Wu army may come to the city at any time, since Liu Dou and Zhang Fei have arrived, this Jiangling City will naturally be entered.
After all, the soldiers in the city can't all be Mi Fang's sworn friends, as long as they can take Mi Fang's Taishou seal, they can eradicate his henchmen and control the city defense of Jiangling.
Liu Dou thought about it for a while, and soon had a not-so-friendly idea, but he needed to make some sacrifices from Uncle Zhang.
"The third uncle will wait for me for a while, and my nephew will go and relieve my hands. ”
Without waiting for Zhang Fei to answer, Liu Dou dodged into the bush, half-squinted his eyes into the VR mall, walked quickly to the "living area", and bought a plastic men's razor.
When Liu Dou opened his eyes, the razor appeared on the dead leaf where his gaze landed.
This made Liu Dou discover a pattern, when he exited the virtual world at the first glance, the items he bought would appear at which point.
Liu Dou originally planned to buy an electric shaver, but he was afraid that it would be troublesome to explain to Zhang Fei and that he would have to charge it after a long time, so he chose a simple and cheap plastic razor.
"My nephew has a razor here, and I will help the third uncle shave off his beard, so that it is not easy to reveal his identity. ”
Liu Dou returned to Zhang Fei's side, pretended to take out a black razor from his sleeve, and motioned for Zhang Fei to lean his head over.
"The third uncle never shaves. ”
Zhang Fei looked reluctant, but thinking that shaving off his beard could indeed hide his identity, he could only endure the pain of cutting his love, "That's it, that's it, it's just shaved." ”
He stared at the plastic razor in Liu Dou's hand with a curious face, and asked, "This thing in the eldest nephew's hand is so strange, the third uncle has never seen it, can he really shave off my beard?"
"This is a razor made by my nephew, it's sharp!"
Liu Dou untied the kettle from the motorcycle, poured it on the palm of his hand and slapped it on Zhang Fei's beard, and when it was soaked, he shaved it like a pig's hair.
Although Zhang Fei's beard was thick and dense, it was still vulnerable to this kind of stainless steel blade, and it was quickly scraped clean.
Zhang Fei's complexion is not dark, he shaved off his beard to reveal a Chinese face, a wide chin, big eyes, and a high nose bridge, which actually made Liu Dou feel a little strict, and the previous reckless image was like two people.
"Tsk...... Not to mention, after the third uncle shaved his beard, he seemed to be a different person. ”
"Oops!"
Zhang Fei, who was quite uncomfortable, touched his bare chin and laughed embarrassedly, "Fortunately, the soldiers under the third uncle are not around, otherwise I am afraid that they will laugh to death." ”
Zhang Fei, who had shaved off his beard, was not so conspicuous, but this motorcycle would definitely not be able to enter the city, so Liu Dou pushed into the bushes and hid.
Zhang Fei looked at it and worried: "This treasure is hidden here, and it won't be picked up, right?"
"Third Uncle rest assured, without this key, even if someone finds this iron horse, they can't control it. When our uncle and nephew take control of Gangneung City, my nephew will ride you into the city. ”
In order to appease Zhang Fei, Liu Dou stuffed the key into his sleeve.
It's just a means of transportation that costs seven or eight thousand, and if it is really found and taken away, it will be a pile of scrap metal.
When the time comes, I will buy another one for Uncle Zhang, and ensure that it is exactly the same.
After listening to Liu Dou's words, Zhang Fei relieved himself and followed his eldest nephew straight to the west gate of Jiangling.
Liu Dou took out the road guide from the baggage and repeatedly told Zhang Fei: "Although the third uncle has shaved off his beard, in order to avoid being recognized, you should follow behind your nephew and talk less, and I will negotiate with the guards." ”
"The third uncle is not stupid. ”
Zhang Fei nodded and agreed.
After a meal, the uncle and nephew came to the West City Gate.
At this moment, the sun has sunk in the west, Jiangling City is about to close the gate, and the Han army inside and outside the city gate is constantly urging the people to speed up their pace.
"Where did you two come from?"
As soon as Liu Dou and Zhang Fei approached the city gate, they were stopped by an officer with a saber hanging from his waist, and looked the two of them up and down with a vigilant gaze.
"I came to Gangneung from Ba County to visit relatives. ”
Liu Dou unhurriedly took out the prepared road guide from his sleeve and respectfully presented it to the officer.
The officer checked it for a moment and made sure that it was stamped with the seal of the government, so he returned it to Liu Dou, and said with regret, "You two are so majestic, it's a pity not to join the army." ”
"Thank you, Master Jun. ”
Liu Dou didn't answer the stubble, took the road and put it in his sleeve to make a gesture, and led Zhang Feifei, who didn't say a word and deliberately squinted his eyes, into Jiangling City.
Finally quietly touched into the city, the uncle and nephew had just landed on the ground, and Zhang Fei led the way at the moment, and Liu Dou followed, through the crowded streets, and strode straight to the Guanfu.
Jiangling has always been the seat of governance in the southern county, Liu Bei has always regarded this place as the political center after gaining a foothold in Jingzhou, and after these years of development, it has become a famous city in the south, with rich people and active economy.
At this moment, although the front line of Xiangyang is inextricably fighting, the city of Gangneung is still singing and dancing, the street is lit up, the shops on both sides of the street are lined up, and the hawkers are shuttling back and forth, a lively scene.
"Tsk...... In the end, it is one of the largest capital cities in Jingzhou, which is much more prosperous than the small county town of Yanlou. ”
Liu Dou followed behind Zhang Fei and praised him heartily.
Looking at the scale of the city, it is estimated that there can be seventy or eighty thousand residents in Jiangling City, and it is no wonder that Sun Quan has never forgotten this piece of fat.
If you can control this military powerhouse, then for any of the three kingdoms of Cao, Sun, and Liu, the national strength can be greatly improved, and the history of Ji and Han from prosperity to decline began with the loss of Jiangling.
Half an hour later, Liu Dou followed Zhang Fei to the door of a large-scale mansion, and from a distance, he could see the white walls and black tiles, carved beams and paintings, and the style was extraordinary.
The plaque of "Minfu" hangs high above the vermilion lacquer gate, which shines under the light of the red lantern, and the two marble-carved stone lions in front of the stone steps look lifelike and extraordinary.
At this time, the sky had just darkened, and the gate of the Guanfu was still open, and there were two Tsing Yi guys standing in front of the door.
Zhang Fei didn't say hello, he buried his head and rushed in, and Liu Dou followed closely behind.
"Who is so bold as to dare to trespass on the Guanfu?"
Seeing this, the two young men in Tsing Yi hurriedly stepped forward to stop them, but Zhang Fei came to Guan Yu to discuss and drink almost every day before leaving Jingzhou, so the Guan Mansion was very familiar, even if Zhang Fei shaved his beard, he was still recognized by them at a glance.
"It turned out to be ...... Three generals, you, why are you dressed like this? ”
The two young men in Tsing Yi held back a smile and saluted together, "I don't know when the third general came to Jiangling, I'll go and inform Madam immediately." ”
"What's so funny?"
Zhang Feiban glared at the two of them with a raised face, and then said sternly, "The third master has something important to deal with when he comes to Jingzhou, and he is not allowed to mention to anyone that he has seen me." I went to see my sister-in-law, and it was not the first time I had come here. ”
"Whoa!"
The two young men in Tsing Yi nodded hurriedly, and honestly continued to stand on the stone steps on duty.
"Come with me!"
Zhang Fei greeted Liu Dou, and the uncle and nephew crossed the threshold and strode into the Guanfu.
