Chapter 3: A Night Attack by a Powerful Enemy
Although he had not seen the history books mentioned by Jia Liangcai, Guan Ping firmly believed that what he said must be true.
Father, uncle, third uncle, Mr. Kong Ming...... There are so many people with lofty ideals running around for the Han Dynasty, and the heroes of the Quartet have not given up the banner of the Great Han, and one day we will definitely be able to rebuild a more powerful Great Han.
Just get through the immediate crisis.
The world is spinning again, and Guan Ping has returned to the edge of the Han River.
The dark night sky was as dark as ever, and the biting cold wind made him a little more sober.
It's time to tell the uncles the news, and ask them to take refuge for a thousand years.
Even if Cao Cao has great ability, he can't run after us for a thousand years.
Guan Ping hurriedly waded ashore on the water, and before he could stand still, he heard Liu Bei's surprise call:
"Ping'er, where did you go!"
In the drizzle, the shore was lit with fires, and all the soldiers of Liu Beijun had woken up, and they were relieved to see Guan Ping ashore.
"Uncle, I ......"
Without waiting for Guan Ping to explain, Liu Bei had already rushed to his side, put his hands on Guan Ping's shoulders, and looked at Guan Ping's situation through the night with difficulty, making sure that he was in good health, Liu Bei sighed and patted Guan Ping's head lightly with his palm.
"You can scare me! If it weren't for Mr. Zijing's warning, I wouldn't have known that you fell into the water! โ
Guan Pingsheng was born in troubled times, suffered from displacement since he was a child, and was separated from his father many times.
He disappeared just now, and Liu Bei thought that he was accidentally washed away by the river, so he hurriedly asked someone to light the last bit of dry firewood, looking for Guan Ping's traces everywhere.
Fortunately, Guan is safe and sound.
Otherwise, Liu Bei really didn't know how to explain to Guan Yu in the future.
His two daughters were taken away by Cao Chun and the tiger and leopard cavalry in the Battle of Changbanpo, and if Guan Ping, who regarded him as his own, had another accident, Liu Bei didn't know if his strong heart could withstand this series of blows.
Guan Ping was fine, but Liu Bei slapped him in a daze, and he couldn't tell the difference between east and west, north and south for a while, so he could only look at the big man standing side by side with Liu Bei, and said with a wry smile:
"Mr. Lao Zijing has bothered."
Standing beside Liu Bei was the envoy of Sun Quan of Eastern Wu, Lu Su, who was now six years old Chinese New Year's Eve.
Although Lu Su is not a celebrity, he can definitely be called a hero, which can be seen from the size of him who is only one size smaller than Liu Bei.
He was entrusted by Sun Quan to find Liu Bei and strive for cooperation between the two sides.
It's just that Lu Su was unlucky, and he happened to meet Liu Bei in Changbanpo all the way, and before he could say a word, he met the forward of Cao Jun, but fortunately, he was brave and good at fighting, so he escaped from a bunch of chaotic troops.
At night, Lu Su couldn't sleep.
On the one hand, it is because it is very cold, and on the other hand, it is worried about the future.
Cao Cao's army was even more powerful than he imagined, and Liu Beijun was hit so hard that he didn't know if he could fight again in the future.
If there is no Liu Bei, Jiangdong will be shaken, and I am afraid that it will be scattered in a hurry without Cao's army's eastward crusade.
He was about to walk to the river to blow the wind, when he saw Guan Ping's feet slip into the water.
Lu Su subconsciously wanted to rush over to rescue, but he didn't expect Guan Ping to return to the same place in the next moment.
He thought he was wrong for a while, but soon Guan Ping Guan Ping took the initiative to rush into the water again, which made Lu Su break out in a cold sweat, and quickly called Liu Bei, who had not slept to light a torch and search around, and finally found Guan Ping.
Guan Ping went in and out of the Han River twice, but there were not many water droplets on his body, so Lu Su was quite curious, and when Guan Ping saluted him, he found that what Guan Ping was holding in his hand was not a spear, but a strange weapon that had never been seen before.
This made Lu Su even more curious.
"General Koseki." Lu Su couldn't be polite, "Take the liberty to ask for advice, what is this?" โ
"Ah, oh, this ......" Guan Ping blurted out that he wanted to say something a thousand years from now.
But he was afraid that as soon as he opened his mouth, he would be regarded by Lu Su as having committed epilepsy, so he could only say casually:
"This is the magic weapon hidden in the Han water, I just saw the golden light in the water, so I went into the water to look for it, and found this thing."
Golden light? Why didn't I see that?
"Can you take a look?"
"Naturally." Seeing that Liu Bei did not object, Guan Ping smoothly handed over this weapon with high hopes to Lu Su.
So heavy?
This was Lu Su's first feeling.
He saw that this thing was clearly an assassinating weapon like a spear, how heavy it was, wouldn't it delay its use?
He carefully cocked the rifle and felt for the rusted bayonet, more sure that it was an assassination weapon.
It's just that the tail of this thing is difficult to grasp, and it can only grasp the middle, which greatly restricts the use of this device?
However, this spike is made of stainless steel, and although it is rusty, it is quite good, so is there any other use for this thing?
Lu Su pondered for a long time, but he could only think of one possibility - it should be that Liu Beijun was exhausted, and he was afraid that I would go back to Jiangdong and say that his strength was not good, so he deliberately came up with this strange weapon and pretended to be a divine soldier to deceive me.
Why bother?
"Hey," he sighed, handing the rifle back to Guan Ping with a wry smile, "Then I wish the little general to use his magic powers and kill more enemies." โ
Guan Ping is also a person who has experienced a hundred battles, and he can't see that this thing has many shortcomings and is not easy to show.
But this is the spoils that Jia Liangcai snatched back in a bloody battle thousands of years later, and it must be wonderful.
Ordinary swords and swords can't fight Cao Jun's thousands of people, but you can try this thing.
Guan Ping was about to tell Liu Bei and Lu Su about his wonderful experience, when a surprise cheer suddenly came from the army:
"Boat! The ship is coming! โ
A few lonely lights lit up on the dark river, and several large boats struggled to sail in the direction of the lower reaches of the Han River.
In the night wind, the horn of the ship sounded loudly, and the man standing at the bow of the boat raised the torch in his hand and shook it vigorously, the tall and mighty figure was like a god under the firelight, and everyone could see at a glance that it was Guan Yu who led the naval army to Jiangling before!
"Cloud Chief!" Liu Bei was overjoyed, and hurriedly called someone to blow the horn and guide Guan Yu's big ship to dock.
It's finally here, as long as Guan Yu's army arrives, everyone will be able to escape.
But God doesn't seem to be willing to let go of Liu Bei, who has suffered many disasters.
Before the big ship docked, Elfang, who was patrolling the night not far away, suddenly let out an exclamation:
"They're catching up!"
Fearful things happened.
Seeing that Guan Yu's reinforcements were about to arrive, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in the dark night.
The horse's hooves shattered the tranquility of the long night, and also shattered the last luck in Liu Bei's heart.
Although it was dark and rainy, Cao Cao's respect for Liu Bei made him never let go of the opportunity to press Liu Bei to death on land.
I don't know how many cavalry pounced, and Liu Beijun, who was still suffering in the cold wind all night with everyone wounded, was powerless to stop it.
"Uncle!" Guan Ping reacted immediately, he squeezed the 38 big cover in his hand, and said decisively, "After the little nephew is broken, your uncles will board the ship first!" โ
Liu Bei shook his head slowly.
Liu Beijun's morale has now fallen to the bottom.
If he gets on the boat and goes first, the soldiers on the shore will definitely scatter in a hurry, and the person who is cut off will definitely be dead, so what is the use of him even if he escapes?
"Exactly." Zhuge Liang strode over, and he was always calm, and now he was a little nervous, "Lord, Liang has an idea of surviving in death......"
"It's all at this point, but it doesn't hurt to say it!"
Zhuge Liang nodded heavily, pointed to the cavalry in the darkness in the distance, and said quickly:
"Cao Jun's tigers and leopards rode and killed for several days, and then braved the rain to hurry, and they must have been quite tired.
He expected that we would inevitably break up, so he did not hesitate to chase after us, if our army counterattacked, first cut off the enemy's general, and beat the enemy's spirit, and when Yun Chang landed on the shore, he killed the pursuers first, and our army could slowly get on the ship. โ
"Good!"
Liu Bei agreed to Zhuge Liang's suggestion without thinking about it.
He was frustrated one after another, and he didn't want to be so aggrieved.
ยท
Assault and beheading, there needs to be a fast horse, there are few war horses left in Liu Bei's army, Liu Bei asked someone to bring his own war horse, and rushed to Guan Pingdao:
"Ping'er escorted Mr. Zijing and the old and young to board the ship first, and I fought with Yide, Zilong, and Shuzhi for a while!"
Guan Ping hurriedly stopped Liu Bei:
"Please let my uncle let the horse and me, and I and the three uncles will rush all the way to kill."
Liu Bei looked at Guan Ping with a wry smile, and then at Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun who had hurriedly got on the horse to prepare, shook his head and said:
"Ping'er still has to practice martial arts hard, this time...... Forget it. โ
At the moment of life and death, rushing into battle and slashing the general is the way to survive in death.
Although Guan Ping's martial arts are good, he is less popular after all, and he can't compare to generals like Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and Chen Zhi.
Now is a life-and-death situation, how can Liu Bei be willing to avoid without fighting, he can't help but say that he has flattened the switch and has already pulled the reins of the horse.
Liu Bei is skilled in martial arts, but in the battle of Changbanpo, he was seriously wounded, and an iron spear was stabbed in the chest, almost piercing him.
He had been pretending to be okay before, but this time he grabbed the reins of the horse and exerted a slight force, and the wound suddenly collapsed, Rao is Liu Bei was resolute, and he still couldn't help but snort.
"Uncle......" Guan Ping was shocked and frightened, and hurriedly pulled Liu Bei desperately.
Yes.
Jia Liangcai said that I will be able to rejuvenate the Han family in the future, even according to Huang Si, my father and son did not die in the hands of Cao Jun.
At least I'm on, and my chances of survival will be greatly improved.
He made up his mind, quickly pushed Liu Bei away, lifted the 38 rifle, and jumped on the horse.
The heavy and oddly shaped rifle was more difficult to wield on a horse, but now that he was desperate to survive, he couldn't care about that.
Ancestors bless.
I hope that this weapon after a thousand years can help me break the enemy.
"Uncle is offended, wait for the little nephew to kill the thief and then come to ask for the guilt!"
He let out a long roar and rode his horse into the night.
