Text Chapter 304 The tiger is about to die, Kong Ming absconded

Although Zhao Yun and Zhao Shu were in their respective cars, the carriage was rebuilt from a grain cart and had no guardrail roof, and he couldn't stop coughing to make everyone next to him relax their vigilance. The guards next to him, and even Wei Yan, didn't react at all. Fortunately, Li Feng was next to Zhao Shu, and when he saw Zhao Yun rushing up, he hurriedly blocked in front of Zhao Shu, and received a punch in the abdomen, and suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out and fell on Zhao Shu. Zhao Shu originally relied on Li Feng's support to sit firmly, but now he was hit by his body, and he also fell on his back, and he felt severe pain in the wound on his chest, thinking that it was cracking again.

Zhao Yun asked to come to see Zhao Shu, presumably to charge up the last blow, and after a punch, he was powerless to fall aside. The guards on the left and right hurriedly stepped forward to hold it down, Wei Yan looked at the large blood stains in front of Zhao Shu, although he saw that it was Li Feng who vomited, he was also very anxious, and hurriedly stepped forward to visit.

After removing the fainted Li Feng from Zhao Shu's chest, Zhao Shu felt a little more relaxed, slowly reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and was finally angered by Zhao Yun in his heart, and asked Wei Yan to help Zhao Shu up. At this time, Zhao Yun had already run out of oil, and after the action just now, the gray and black color on his face became thicker, and a few wisps of black blood gradually oozed from the corners of his mouth. Zhao Shu looked at his white head, forcibly suppressed his anger, and sighed: "The general assassinated last night, and I still want to save your life; Why do you have to kill me? Zhao Yun smiled gloomily: "If you want to give a little favor, then let someone return, wouldn't you underestimate me?" If I can't kill you this time, I won't be able to die. ”

Zhao Yun is really stubborn, Kong Ming has indeed made great achievements in Xichuan, but it cannot be concluded that Zhao Shu's entry into Chengdu will bring disaster to the people of Liangchuan. Now it seems that Zhao Yun may be selfless, but what about Kong Ming? Even if he has the ability to make the people of Xichuan live a better life, why must he monopolize power and exclude dissidents? Take it as an example, Zhao Shu holds Jingzhou, Hanzhong soldiers and horses, and has Liu Bei's father and son. Kong Ming only had two or 30,000 soldiers and horses, but he still had to resist to the end, and wanted to get rid of Zhao Shu with Zhao Yun's unparalleled bravery. Zhao Yun failed, and his life was categorically lost; Even if it succeeds by luck, Guo Huai in Jingzhou, Emperor Huan Yi in Bai, and even Wei Yan will not be able to attach to Kong Ming again, why will the Shu Han Empire stand with Wei and Wu when it comes?

Zhao Shu wanted to ask Zhao Yun very much, but he still didn't say it, he had been with Kong Ming for many years, and since he believed that Kong Ming was a saint in his heart, why did Zhao Shu say these words, bearing the notorious reputation of malicious slander? Wei Yan looked at Zhao Yun so embarrassed from the side, and he also had some heroic sympathy, so he opened his mouth to persuade: "It's all for the Han family, why is General Zilong so stubborn?" Zhao Yun squinted at Wei Yan and scolded: "Repeated villain, a certain shame and your words." Wei Yan originally had good intentions, but he didn't want to be scolded back, and he was slightly stunned, so he shook his head and said nothing.

Zhao Yun is very strong-minded, it seems that even if Zhao Shu treats him as his father, he will not have a good face. Since this was the case, Zhao Shu could only make up his mind and whispered to Wei Yan: "Let him break it himself." After speaking, he coughed a few times and stretched out his hand to beckon Jiang Bin to come over. Li Feng was also unconscious and received medical treatment. Jiang Bin is now Zhao Shu's disciple, who is Zhao Shu looking for if he doesn't look for him? And Zhao Shu didn't want him to see Zhao Yun commit suicide.

Jiang Bin watched for a moment between Zhao Shu and Zhao Yun, and finally came over and supported Zhao Shu instead of Wei Yan. Zhao Shu lay down slowly, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, he felt the carriage bumpy, and continued to move forward. After a while, he heard the familiar sound of horses' hooves in his ears, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Wei Yan beating his horse to his side, and nodded at Zhao Shu.

Zhao Shu knew that the five tiger generals of Shu Han had all disappeared, and he was inevitably a little melancholy in his heart, and asked, "What words does he have?" Wei Yan said: "I hope the general can treat the second son well." Zhao Shu nodded and closed his eyes again, Zhao Yun finally made Zhao Shu feel a trace of human affection, and he always couldn't give up.

Wei Yan asked again: "How to deal with the future?" Zhao Shu didn't open his eyes, and said the words he had thought out in his heart word by word: "Send it to Kong Ming." Wei Yan took a few steps out of the horse, then turned around and asked, "But what do you want to bring?" Zhao Shu shook his head, after Kong Ming saw Zhao Yun's body, if he still wanted to resist the city, I would just send him on the road with Zhao Yun. After Wei Yan left, Jiang Bin's soft sobbing voice faintly came from Zhao Shu's ears, knowing that he was trying his best to restrain himself, he didn't dare to cry out loud, so he had to speak: "You go and give him a ride, come back after crying enough." ”

Badong was originally a small county, but now almost half of the Shu Han army is stationed here. There are Jingzhou soldiers and horses with Huan Yi as a general in the White Emperor City, more than 10,000 troops of Wu Yi's brothers stationed not far outside the city, and Zhuge Kongming's army in the West Badong County Governor's Office. After Zhao Yun's death, no matter in terms of the number of troops and the excellent comparison of military generals, Kong Ming was at a disadvantage. Even so, when Zhao Shu and Wei Yan came to Badong City, they were all cautious, for fear that Kong Ming would have other accidents.

Huan Yi has a heavy responsibility, and he can't leave the city defense lightly. When the Wu Yi brothers saw Wei Yan's army coming, they also moved their troops over and merged into a big village, and their prestige was greatly restored. Zhao Shu did not doubt the loyalty of these two brothers, and in such a situation, they also betrayed Zhao Shu and joined Kong Ming, unless there was a problem with their heads, not to mention that they did not have a strong friendship with Kong Ming. Zhao Yun's death has spread throughout the army in Badong, and in today's Shu Han army, Wei Yan and the Guan brothers have become the new pillars, and they all support Zhao Shu, which is also a deterrent to the Wu Yi brothers. Zhao Shu was injured, and he only met Wu Yi and the two in courtesy, and after listening to some words of blessing, Wei Yan contacted him on his behalf, and as for the matter of camp defense, Zhao Shu had to worry more about it?.? `

That night, Ye Feng also came from White Emperor City to check and treat Zhao Shu, and there was an anesthetic medicine donated by Yan Peng, which greatly reduced Zhao Shu's pain. also examined Li Feng, fortunately, the punch hit him, only two ribs were broken, if it hit Zhao Shu's wound, he would have to die on the spot.

Early the next morning, Zhao Shu personally wrote down an invitation card, sent it to the city, and invited Kong Ming to come to the luncheon. After the envoy went, Zhao Shu urgently summoned Wei Yan, Wu Yi and other generals into the account, and ordered them to return to the camp to reorganize their troops and horses, as long as Kong Ming did not go out of the city at noon, he immediately borrowed Liu Bei's edict, pointing out that he was a traitor to the party, and took Badong City in one fell swoop. Now, even if the Shu Han Empire is unable to send troops to fight against Wei Wu in three or five years, Zhao Shu must first remove the tumor of Kong Ming.

The generals returned to the camp to prepare, and they all came to Zhao Shu's account to report on 6, everything was ready, just waiting for Kong Ming's news. More than half an hour passed, and at last the messenger returned. Zhao Shu hurriedly summoned to ask Kong Ming what he was doing, but the messenger replied that he had never seen Kong Ming's face at all. Zhao Shu couldn't help but change color, and shouted in a deep voice: "I use you as an envoy, but I don't see Kong Ming and return, what do you want?" ”

Seeing that Zhao Shu was angry, the envoy hurriedly bowed to the ground, and said in fear: "The general is angry with thunder, and after his subordinates entered the city, he met Master Li Hui, who joined the army in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and repeatedly asked to see the Prime Minister. Lord Li was willing to go out of the city with his subordinates to see the general, and he was outside the tent at the moment, and the reason was to ask the general to ask Li to join the army in detail. Kong Ming didn't dare to come in person, but sent a lobbyist out of the city, Zhao Shu had already made up his mind, how could he be moved by a few words? At that moment, he waved his hand to signal the messenger to go out and called Li Hui in.

After a while, Li Hui entered the account and stepped forward to salute, Zhao Shu just nodded slightly, and asked, "Why didn't Kong Ming come in person?" Li Hui shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

Zhao Shu glared at him, and then asked, "Then why did Kong Ming send you here?" Li Hui still shook his head and said, "The non-prime minister sent the subordinate officials to come." The more strange Zhao Shu heard this, and then asked, "Then why did you come?" Li Hui's answer surprised the people in the tent: "Prime Minister Zhuge is not in the city, the general is invited, so naturally the lower officials will come." ”

Zhao Shu gasped unconsciously, it was not that he didn't think that Kong Ming would abandon the city and leave, but today, where can he go? Cao Wei; Kong Mingxiang pretends to be loyal and righteous, and will never risk the world's condemnation to follow the Han thief. Soochow; Since Kong Ming died of Zhou Yu in anger, he has formed a deep enmity with the generals of Jiangdong. wandering through the counties of Shu and Han; Now that there are no soldiers left in the counties, it does not seem wise to abandon the military horses and flee alone, and surely be charged with rebellion.

Zhao Shu looked at Li Hui coldly and asked, "You are a subordinate of the prime minister, why don't you go with Kong Ming?" Li Hui smiled faintly and said: "The prime minister left this time, only with the prime minister's chief Shi Yang Yi, and others didn't know about it at all." The lower officials also want to follow, but they only hate to be shallow in their studies, and the prime minister is not deaf. ”

"Oh?" Thinking that Kong Ming saw Zhao Yun's body, he knew that he had no power to return to the sky, so he had to flee with a few henchmen, for fear of being known, and even subordinates like Li Hui hid it. Zhao Shu asked again: "What is the current situation in the city?" ”

Li Hui said: "There are more than 23,000 military horses in the city, led by generals Ma Dai, Chen Wat, Zhang Wei and others, all of whom are willing to belong to the general, hoping that the general can treat the generals leniently." ”

Kong Ming has fled, Zhao Shu naturally will not embarrass these subordinates, and there are also a few acquaintances. After the death of Ma Dai's brother Ma, it is estimated that Kong Ming actually put it under the account in order to avoid suspicion, thinking of Ma's deathbed, Zhao Shu naturally wanted to treat him differently. There is also Zhang Wei, after Zhao Shu seized Chengdu, let Li Yan repair Kong Ming, which undoubtedly exposed his identity lies, and did not care about his safety at all. Thinking that Kong Ming had already removed him and didn't want to be in the city, Zhao Shu felt a little sorry for him in his heart, and of course he had to be rewarded.

So he said: "Since Kong Ming has absconded in fear of crime, all the generals in the city are not guilty." Li Hui saluted and thanked him, and then asked, "Then dare to ask when the general will enter the city to appease the generals?" As soon as he heard this, Zhao Shu suddenly became vigilant, and asked in a deep voice: "Could it be that my lord was tricked by Kong Ming to trick me into the city?" ”

Li Hui raised his head and laughed for a moment before he said with a straight face: "The general wants to achieve great things, but he is so suspicious and jealous, doesn't it make people feel cold?" Zhao Shuxuan immediately smiled and said: "Appropriate words are playful, adults must not take it to heart." Although it was said so politely, but if Zhao Shu was really allowed to enter the city, he still didn't dare, now the situation is very good, and it is too unreasonable to wet the bed at dawn.

Zhao Shu turned his eyes to the generals in the tent and said: "I came from Chengdu, and I have never gone to the White Emperor to meet Your Majesty. In Padang City, which general would like to take my place? Wei Yan wanted to come out after hearing this, but was stopped by Zhao Shu's eyes, and just looked at Wu Yi. Wu Yi hesitated for a moment, but finally stepped forward and hugged his fists and said, "The last general is willing to act on behalf of the general." "In fact, people with a little longer brains should know that Zhao Shu's entry into the city is indeed a bit dangerous, but others are different, even if Li Hui is deceitful, there is an ambush in the city, Zhao Shu did not go in person, and Kong Ming will not rashly poison him. Of course, there are still some dangers, so Zhao Shu was reluctant to have a baby bump like Wei Yan, so he had to let Wu Yi take this opportunity to show his feelings, which was still interesting to him. Zhao Shu nodded and said, "It's hard work." "Let Li Hui lead Wu Yi down right now.

Whether Kong Ming absconded or not is a five-five number, if he really escaped, Zhao Shu still had to find Liu Bei to order the whole country to be wanted, and after the two of them came out, he immediately ordered the whole army to rise up and turn to the White Emperor City.

When they arrived in the city, Huan Yi, Yan Peng and others all went out of the city to greet each other. It has been some time since Zhao Shu left the White Emperor City, and when he saw Huan Yi again, he did feel a little cordial, if he wasn't in the White Emperor City, in order to help Zhao Shu contain Kong Ming in order to fake the momentum, how could he capture Chengdu so easily? After meeting, they greeted each other a few words, and asked more about Zhao Shu's injury, and Zhao Shu also thanked Yan Peng for the gift of medicine.

After entering the city, Zhao Shu did not go back to the mansion to meet Guan Feng first, but directly went to Yong'an Palace to ask to see Liu Bei. said that he was asking to see, but in fact, he went in directly, and Zhao Shu was injured and couldn't walk, so several sergeants carried Zhao Shu in a soft sedan chair. According to Huan Yi, Liu Bei is also very honest these days, his condition has not deteriorated, and he enjoys his days in the palace with his second son all day long. In Chengdu, Huan Yi also told Liu Bei that he should understand that the general trend has gone, and he should be honest.

Zhao Shu directly asked Zhao Shu to be carried into Liu Bei's bedroom, he was talking to his second son, and when he saw Zhao Shu inside, his face was as usual. Liu Yong had a look of resentment; Liu Li was very afraid of me when he was young, and hurriedly hid behind his father and brother. Zhao Shu hugged his fist at Liu Bei and said, "Weichen is injured and can't pay full courtesy, please don't blame Your Majesty." ”

Liu Bei looked at the wound on Zhao Shu's chest, a look of disappointment flashed on his face, and said: "Since Aiqing is injured, you can go back to the mansion to recuperate, if anything happens, it is normal to let General Huan play on his behalf." ”

"The stakes are very high, and Weichen doesn't dare to be idle." Zhao Shu then said Li Hui's words, and finally said: "Kong Ming betrayed his rebellion and absconded for fear of crime, and I hope that His Majesty will spread the edict to the world and offer a reward for arrest." "Zhao Shu asked him to give him an edict, which was already enough to give him face, otherwise it would be the same if he personally snatched the jade seal. Liu Bei should also figure this out, so he didn't ask much at the moment, but said: "Since this is the case, Yan Qing can draft an edict on my behalf." ”

Huang Hao hurriedly took the pen and ink on the side. Yan Peng saluted Liu Bei, immediately picked up the pen and wrote, and after a while, he read it again in front of everyone, and asked Liu Bei again: "What does Your Majesty think?" Liu Bei nodded and said, "That's it, you can make people copy and divide it into counties." ”

Zhao Shu stretched out his hand to stop, and said: "It seems that the reward is insufficient, as the saying goes, there must be a brave man under the heavy reward, Kong Ming is such a big crime, he should be arrested with a heavy reward." Liu Bei had no choice but to ask: "Then with Aiqing's meaning, how to modify it?" ”

Zhao Shu sneered and said, "Those who capture Kong Ming alive will be rewarded with their knights; If there is a dedication, another reward will be given. ”
