Chapter 33: Don't thank you to Prime Minister Cao?
Wen Ping's short spear was fast and ruthless, stabbing straight at Guan Ping's throat, and in the firelight, Wen Ping's face was clearly visible, as if he could smell the blood of this young warrior in the next moment.
But at this life-and-death juncture, Wen Ping suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Guan Ping actually flipped backwards suddenly, and in the next moment, he kicked the ground with his right foot, and his left foot was raised suddenly, like a dragon rising into the air, and kicked Wen Ping's chin hard.
"Ah......h
Wen Ping felt an unspeakable sharp pain in his jaw, and then his mouth was full of sweetness, and the pain that penetrated deep into his bone marrow made him can't help but roll backwards, slamming into the side of the boat, and it was difficult to get up.
Guan Ping was covered in a cold sweat, and couldn't believe that this was actually a skill that he could show.
Lu Yi, who was in the distance, watched Guan Ping fight back, and the heart that had hung in his throat before finally fell.
There has never been a natural fierce general, Guan Zhang was once beaten to the head, but he pondered and practiced in the constant fighting, and then he practiced a shocking martial art.
Guan Ping's ability to react like this at the moment of life and death is enough to show that this son will be a general in the future.
"Wen Ping has dropped! Wenpin has been lowered! Lu Yi shouted loudly, and he also raised the steel knife in his hand, and rushed towards the place where Wen Ping fell.
The surrounding Cao soldiers all watched this fight, and even many of Wen Ping's subordinates did not contribute to the work, unwilling to fight with this young general who grew up in Jingzhou.
Hearing that Wenpin had surrendered, they subconsciously began to turn the bow of the ship, and many large and small ships scrambled for the road and collided with each other, and the scene was not lively.
Wen Ping fell on the boat, there was no pain in his whole body, especially his jaw was even more painful, he saw that the general trend had gone, so he could only look at Guan Ping resentfully.
He has no power to fight back now, as long as Guan Ping walks up slowly, a knife can kill him.
But Guan Ping no longer had the violence he had when he slashed Jiao Touch, he withdrew the ring-headed knife stained with sticky blood from its scabbard, and said with a smile:
"The general is an elder of Guan Ping, and he was forced to surrender to Cao, and today is Ping Menglang."
As he spoke, he bowed, and Wen Ping suddenly felt his scalp tingle, and the pain in his eyes was even worse.
"Good, good, you're good!"
After this battle, Guan Ping understood Zhuge Liang's evil intentions to let Zhang Yun go that day - although Cao Jun had some of his own naval army, if he really wanted to fight with Jiangdong soldiers, he had to rely on the strength of Jingzhou's local naval army.
Today, the news of some Jingzhou naval rebellions will definitely not be hidden from Cao Cao, but he is about to go on an expedition, and if he kills these Jingzhou people, it will definitely seriously affect the morale of the army, so that the Jingzhou clan, who are already committed to Liu Bei, will have more reason to cause damage.
After all, after surrendering to Cao Cao, although Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and others were rewarded, the other Jingzhou clans may not be better mixed than when Liu Biao was the emperor of the soil, if someone can cut in from the perspective of fighting for the interests of the Jingzhou people, they will definitely be able to split a huge rift between the Jingzhou clans.
Liu Bei's previous performance was very popular, Zhuge Liang is the son-in-law of Jingzhou people, Guan Ping is under the banner of justice for Jingzhou people this time, this game of chess has already played a yang scheme, Cao Cao can feel it, and Wen Ping can also feel it.
The best way, of course, is for Wenpin to die in a glorious battle at the hands of Guan Ping.
This can at least make many Jingzhou people resentful of Guan Ping, but Wen Ping is unwilling to send Cao Cao to death, although he knows that it will not be easy to explain after he goes back, he still snorted in pain, struggled to support himself and jumped into the river.
A few loyal subordinates rowed a small boat to save Wen Ping, but they were unable to fight, so they could only leave quickly.
The Jingzhou troops on the river made a noise one after another, chanting in unison "Great Han Wansheng", and the joyful voices resounded all over the river, and all kinds of unhappiness that had accumulated in their hearts for many days were swept away.
The fire on Wen Ping's ship was getting bigger and bigger, and everyone who was roasted by the raging flames couldn't help but squint their eyes, but Guan Ping was not in a hurry to leave, he calmly bowed to the ground, and slowly bowed down to the soldiers on the ship around him:
"Today, all the fathers and elders, the square can win! Liu Zhijun united with General Sun of Jiangdong in Xiakou and raised 100,000 troops, if you are willing to support the Han family with us, you can go to Xiakou with me.
If the parents are in the house, then be patient. It won't be long before we will fight back and save you folks! โ
The blazing fire made Guan Ping seem to be covered with a layer of dazzling golden light, and Lu Yi also felt his blood surge, and he was actually a little moved by what the young general said, and for a moment he couldn't wait to cheer loudly and join the army of Kuang Fu Han.
This young man is really good, and he will ...... in the future Let's talk about that later.
Guan Ping's first dispatch of troops by Lu Yi did not cause any earth-shattering damage to Cao's army, but Guan Ping's entry into the battle among the ten thousand armies to kill Jiao Touch and severely damage Wenpin greatly shocked Cao's army, which has far exceeded Lu Yi's previous assumptions.
And the gains in this battle were extremely rich.
There are 200 people under the command of Wei Yan, a native of Yiyang, three fighting ships, a shipwreck, 200 bows, and thousands of arrows, which can be described as extremely fierce in combat.
Now that Wei Yan has defected to Guan Ping, these things have naturally become Guan Ping's military funds.
There were more than 300 Jingzhou soldiers who were unwilling to endure the tyranny of the Cao army, so they simply left with Guan Ping, and added four ships and twelve boats to Guan Ping, as well as a large number of water warfare equipment.
But this is not the biggest gain-
When Guan Ping was about to retreat, he saw the Wenpin Army's ship in the distance actually sailing over.
The building ship is generally not directly involved in the battle, but the reserves, food, and spare weapons are all on it, which can be called an aircraft carrier of this era.
He also thought that Wen Ping's subordinates were not giving up, and they were ready to make a last fight, but he didn't expect that there was a figure of Liu Dian jumping up and down on it, and this legendary Wu Jun "immortal" was excited, constantly slapping the female wall on the boat, and shouting in a dog-like voice, "Get rich!" Get rich! โ
It turned out that Wen Ping was originally going to Shiyang to take up his post, and the ordnance, grain and grass on the ship were ready, so he could go to the battlefield immediately when Jiao Touch asked him for support.
His subordinates didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but they hurriedly put down the boat and went to the river to fish for Wenpin, and they happened to be looked at by Liu Dan, and occupied the ship early, and the 1,000 catties of corn and thousands of military uniforms and tens of thousands of arrows on the ship were cheaper than Guan Ping.
Looking at the absolute water war giants of this era, Guan Ping and Lu Yi were silent, and they both had a little bit of ...... in each other's eyes
Greedy!
"Little general." Lu Yi's voice trembled slightly.
It's not because he hasn't seen so many munitions, but because for the first time, he really feels that this battle can be fought! This battle can be won!
Cao Cao went south to hastily subdue Jingzhou, but instead dug a bottomless pit for himself!
"What does Brother Lu have to say?" Guan Ping's voice also trembled slightly.
The smile on Lu Yi's elegant face was particularly hideous and fanatical, and he trembled and picked up a handful of corn, and sighed:
"I'll take it without telling you, won't I...... Not gentlemanly enough? โ
"Huh?" Guan Ping was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, "Yes, what Brother Lu taught me is that if there is anything inappropriate in Ping in the future, I will ask Brother Lu for advice." โ
ยท
Wen Ping lay in the boat, the cold and pain made him shiver incessantly, and the dark river seemed to be endless, making his heart full of despair.
What a pass.
When Lao Tzu recovers, I must kill your dog.
But at this moment, he suddenly heard a neat shout from the river, and he thought that Guan Ping was leading the army to kill again, so he hurriedly listened attentively, but he was stunned on the spot as if he had been struck by thunder.
The voice said clearly:
"Thank you Prime Minister Cao Cheng for the boat!"
