Chapter 21 The general is ordered to garrison Nanjun

Liu Bei's assignment has been decided, and the generals are about to go down to prepare, but they saw Chen Jiao suddenly jump up, and shouted in his mouth: "I fell for the thief's trick by mistake, and I am ashamed of my great kindness to the prime minister." As he spoke, he was about to crash into the pillar next to him.

"Stop him." As soon as Zhao Shu shouted, Guan Ping lifted Chen Jiao up and asked Liu Bei, "Uncle, how to deal with this person?" Liu Bei looked at Zhao Shu this time and asked what he meant. Zhao Shudun is happy, if Liu Bei really likes himself more and more, then he will be safe and sound under his account in the future, so he said: "This person is temporarily detained, and he can't show the news." As soon as Liu Bei waved his hand, two sergeants entered and escorted Chen Jiao down.

Kong Ming never spoke, and suddenly said at this moment: "The lord has not many soldiers and horses, if the troops are divided into two places, and Cao Ren of Nanjun returns to the army, what can I do?" If you keep more soldiers and horses, I am afraid that it will not be easy to get them. Liu Bei also felt bad, and muttered: "The military advisor is extremely worried, what can he do about it?" ”

Zhao Shu stepped forward and patted his chest and said, "If the lord and the military advisor can rush back before the third watch tomorrow night, they only need to leave five hundred soldiers, and Shuding Baonan County is safe." This bold statement shocked everyone in the audience. Liu Bei and Kong Ming glanced at each other, and the latter stepped forward and asked with a smile: "Could it be that Jingwei already has a good plan in his heart?" Zhao Shu smiled: "The military advisor comes with his ears." ”

Waiting for Zhao Shu to whisper in Kong Ming's ear, the latter laughed and couldn't stop praising it: "Clever plan!" Fu Zhuan said to Liu Bei: "The lord can be worry-free, and Jingwei can report that Nanjun is safe." Liu Bei saw that Kong Ming also opened his mouth to praise, and immediately relieved his heart and went out of the house with the generals to order troops.

Seeing Liu Bei and Kong Ming leave, Zhao Shu turned to look at the fierce general Zhang Fei beside him, this heroic man who once fought the Yellow Turban, fought Lu Bu, and scared away Cao Cao's million-dollar army with a loud shout, is still majestic and brave. Being able to kill the enemy side by side with these heroes in his heart, Zhao Shu was indeed very happy in his heart, and said with a smile: "General Zhang, the lord will hand over this important task to the two of us." I also hope that the general can work together with his subordinates to defend this city in order to repay the great favor. ”

Zhang Feibao's eyes widened, and he shouted; "If I sincerely serve my eldest brother, I will never give up." After saying that, he turned around and strode towards the castle tower. Zhao Shu also stopped talking and followed him silently.

However, after a long time, Tanma reported: Cao Ren led his troops to rob the camp but was broken by Zhou Yu, and he was leading the defeated troops to Nanjun, and there were still tens of thousands of people. When the left and right sergeants heard this, they were all shocked, Zhang Fei saw this, and said angrily: "Why is Cao Ren'er afraid? So I went out and fetched his head. ”

Zhao Shu hurriedly stopped: "The three generals are Shao'an, they are outnumbered, although the generals are brave, but there are not many soldiers, so blindly fighting, wouldn't it be in vain to give them their lives?" If the general can be trusted, he can do what I want, and he will surely win a great victory. ”

Zhang Fei looked at the soldiers next to him with a look of panic, so he said, "Sir, please try to speak." Zhao Shu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In this way, the general can lead a hundred soldiers to ambush under the city, and when the drums sound in the city, he can kill them." Zhang Fei nodded, hugged his fist at Zhao Shu, and led people down.

Zhao Shu was busy ordering two hundred soldiers to prepare leather drums, and after giving the order, he beat them hard, and then ordered two hundred soldiers to lie in the city tower, plant more flags, prepare bows and crossbows, and shout loudly when the drums sounded, and shoot them with strong arrows. He extinguished all the torches, and the army did not make a sound, waiting for the arrival of Cao Ren's defeated army.

But he said that the two brothers Cao Ren and Cao Hong, when they heard that Zhou Yu had died, led most of the soldiers and horses in the city to Wuzhai to rob the camp, wanting to get Zhou Yu's head to sacrifice Cao Cao. It was Zhou Yu's plan not to want to, and he was defeated in the middle of the ambush, retreating all the way and fleeing back to the city of Nanjun. Cao Ren hurriedly sent people forward to call the door, and suddenly realized that there were no lights in the city? Suddenly realized, it was Cao Hongdao: "Zilian, the city is very strange, could it be that Zhou Yu has been attacked by another man?" ”

Before Cao Hong could answer, he heard the sound of drums in the darkness, and a dense rain of arrows came to his face. Cao Jun in front originally thought that he could escape with his life when he arrived in his own city, but he was not on guard, and he was hit by arrows and fell off his horse one after another. I heard a loud shout from the city gate again: "Yanren Zhang Yide is here, Cao Ren Xiao'er can come to fight to the death quickly." ”

Cao Hong was in a hurry, and when he saw Nanjun being taken away, he was furious in his heart, and he didn't care about Zhang Feiwei's name, so he was about to step forward and kill him. Cao Ren didn't know how much Zhang Fei did in the dark, but faintly saw countless banners on the city, and hurriedly stopped his brother and said: "There are Liu Bei's army and horses in front, and there are Eastern Wu chasing soldiers in the back. The generals also dissuaded, and Cao Hong had no choice but to lead the remnants of the army to Jingzhou with him. Cao Jun had already suffered a defeat in Wuying, but now that the main general is gone, he has no intention of fighting, and they are scattered.

Zhao Shu stood on the city tower and saw the Cao brothers fleeing in a hurry like lost dogs, but Zhang Fei still chased after him, but hurriedly ordered someone to gallop forward to report, and lied that Cao Jun was coming to Nanjun to deceive him into turning back. Sure enough, it didn't take long for Zhang Fei to come quickly in anger, and asked loudly: "I am killing the Xing, I want to take the head of the Cao brothers, why did Mr. Yu come back?"

At this time, the east had gradually turned white, Zhao Shu looked at Cao Renlai is direction, and said: "Although the Cao army retreats, the Wu army is approaching in an instant, what can I do?"

"The soldiers will come to block, and the water will cover the earth." Zhang Fei held up the spear of eight snakes in his hand, and said proudly: "With this spear in my hand, why are you afraid of Zhou Yu'er?" ”

Zhao Shu looked at Zhang Fei coldly, how did this reckless man know that he was brutal? He arched his hand at Zhang Fei and said, "In this case, I will go to Jingzhou with my resignation, and if Nanjun is lost, the three generals will tell the lord to go." ”

Zhang Fei was just ruthless in his mouth, but he also understood in his heart that with his own strength, how could he face Zhou Yu's army? Seeing that Zhao Shu was really leaving, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and said with a smile: "The eldest brother entrusted Nanjun with Mr. and me, how could Mr. leave alone, and he was entrusted by the eldest brother?" Naturally, I am not afraid of Zhou Yu with this spear, but I am afraid that they will not be moral, and they will rush up and rob the city, and it is difficult for me to explain to my eldest brother. Sir's face is not shiny, is he? ”

Zhao Shu was bluffing him, but seeing that his mouth was soft, he stopped and said: "It's not difficult to protect Nanjun, I have already thought of a plan, but it's just ......" said and glanced at Zhang Fei again, the latter hurriedly said: "Sir, but there is a life, to put it bluntly, for the eldest brother's foundation, I will never give up." ”

Zhao Shu shook his head slightly and sighed: "Alas! Last night, General Zilong should have been allowed to stay, although this plan is wonderful, but it requires both wise and brave generals. The general is brave and brave, but he ......, hehe......"

"Sir, I look down on people." Zhang Fei's face immediately changed color when he heard this, and he said angrily: "I have been fighting with my eldest brother for many years, and I have fought more than 100 battles in large and small ways, can it be that a small Nanjun can't hold it?" Since Mr. is going, just go, I still don't let Zhou Yu enter the city. ”

Zhao Shu looked at Zhang Fei's appearance, laughed, and said: "The general is like this, two or three words are provoked into such a look, how can I do my trick?" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Fei hurriedly changed his face, and said with a smile: "I know that Mr. Shicai is provoking me, and I didn't get into a plan, but I usually speak a little louder, don't be surprised, sir." ”

Zhao Shu laughed wildly in his heart, and then said, "Since this is the case, the general will come over with his ears." ”
