Chapter 6 This Road Is Dead
After Xu Shen went out from the Taishou Mansion, he was worried that his whereabouts would be leaked and aroused the suspicion of others.
Therefore, he deliberately did not go out of the east gate of Gangneung to return to Jiangdong, but deliberately made a big detour and came to the south gate of Gangneung City to go out of the city.
Xu Shen replaced Sun Quan as an envoy to Jiangling this time, and what he paid attention to was a secret.
Therefore, although he has an official position, he only brought a few guards with him to Gangneung City this time.
It is not the first time that Xu Shen has sent an envoy to Jiangling, counting it, this is the third time, and the first two times were safe and sound, so that Xu Shen did not have the apprehension of coming to Jiangling City for the first time at this time.
Xu Shen thought this time that he would return to Jiangdong safely like the previous two times.
But unexpectedly, when he came out of the city gate to a place where there were few pedestrians, he was blocked by a group of people speeding behind him.
There were more than 100 people in this group, and the person who was the leader, Xu Shen, knew that it was the person who had just stood in front of Mi Yang and confronted him with a knife.
After Mi Zhong saw that he finally stopped Xu Shen and the others, his heart relaxed, he looked at Xu Shen with a teasing expression, and then said to Xu Shen,
"It's not going to work."
Seeing that his way was blocked by Mi Zhong, and Mi Zhong still had a malicious smile on his face, Xu Shen felt a sigh in his heart.
But Xu Shen thought that Mi Zhong was Mi Yang's slave, and Mi Yang was Mi Fang's son, so Xu Shen's heart was a lot more stable.
Is there a son who disobeys his father?
At this time, Xu Shen only thought that Mi Yang sent Mi Zhong and more than 100 people to show that he had just drawn his sword against him.
Thinking like this is in line with the style of a son-in-law.
Xu Shen, who thought he knew Mi Zhong's true thoughts about blocking the way, became more and more stable in his heart.
Xu Shen snorted coldly in his heart, a disdainful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as Sun Quan's confidant, he had sent an envoy to the King of Wei for Sun Quan,
Even a great hero like King Wei himself is not afraid, not to mention that now it is just some slaves blocking the way.
Seeing Mi Zhong and the people behind him gradually approaching him, Xu Shen held the saber at his waist, and then shouted confidently to Mi Zhong who was the leader,
"I am the guest of your house, how dare you disrespect me!"
In Xu Shen's view, Mi Zhong is nothing more than a slave who fights with people.
Now that he has pointed out his identity, he thinks that Mi Zhong will be afraid of Mi Fang's prestige and dare not be presumptuous to himself.
After all, Mi Yang also has to listen to Mi Fang.
But to Xu Shen's surprise, when he heard himself mention Mi Fang, a trace of hesitation flashed on the face of the slave who was the leader,
But I don't know what he thought again, and soon his face flashed with determination.
I saw that after Mi Zhong ordered someone to surround Xu Shen and several people, he immediately took out the long knife at his waist and shouted at the more than 100 elites around him,
"On the order of filial piety, capture and kill this cadre, whether you live or die!"
After Mi Zhong shouted loudly, the Mi Yang guards who surrounded Xu Shen instantly drew their swords one after another, seeing this unexpected scene, Xu Shen's nose was almost crooked,
What kind of security is there in Jingzhou, there are people who dare to block the road and kill people.
At this time, Xu Xiang's calm and relaxed posture was already indifferent, and he exclaimed,
"Which family's filial piety dares to ignore the Han law and kill people in the way!"
Faced with Xu Shen's doubts, Mi Zhong responded loudly,
"My family!"
After speaking, Mi Zhong drew his knife and rushed forward.
...
Mi Yang held Mi Fang's seal letter to him and walked out of Mi Fang's door.
Guan Yu's headquarters is outside Fancheng, and from Jiangling City to Fancheng, it is the grain and grass transportation route of Guan Yu's department.
On such a route, there will inevitably be soldiers who set up cards at various levels to strictly investigate suspicious people.
And in order to be unimpeded between this line, either the warrant or seal letter of Guan Yu must be required, or there must be a seal letter in Mi Fang's hand.
Historically, Lü Meng attacked Jiangling, and Mi Fang surrendered Kaicheng.
Mi Fang's move not only sold the important town of Jingzhou to Sun Quan, but also allowed Lü Meng to get the Taishou seal letter from him.
With this, Lu Meng almost had no blood, so he occupied the major passes in Nanjun, and directly cut off Guan Yu's grain route, which made Guan Yu a turtle in the urn.
Otherwise, with Guan Yu's prestige at that time, Lu Meng's strategy of attacking the heart would not have been able to affect the military spirit of Guan Yu's sergeants in a short period of time.
At that time, if it weren't for the fact that his subordinates were scattered too much, with the tens of thousands of troops in his hands, Guan Yu fought and retreated along the way, and it was possible to break through and return to Yizhou.
Now that Mi Fang handed over the token that could determine Guan Yu's fate into his hands, Mi Yang only felt that a big stone was pressed in his heart.
From this moment on, the net worth and life of the bearded public relations martial saint, as well as the dream of Liu Bei Group's revival of the Han family, are in his hands.
Mi Yang did not immediately leave to go to Guan Yu outside Fancheng, but stood quietly outside Mi Fang's door, he was waiting for Mi Zhong's return.
At this moment of waiting, Mi Yang was quietly thinking about what he should do next.
If Xu Shen is captured in a while, even if it is a corpse, Mi Yang is completely sure that he will convince Guan Yu that Sun Quan will take advantage of the main force of Jingzhou to attack Jingzhou.
But even if Guan Yu believed it, with the current situation, Guan Yu would not be able to withdraw from the front line in time.
Although Guan Yu's soldiers surrounded Cao Ren before, trapping this Cao Wei's first general in Fancheng and unable to move,
In the rainy season, the Seventh Army was flooded, and the two generals sent by Cao Cao, Yu Ban and Pang De, were killed and captured.
It seems that Guan Yu's momentum is very strong now, and he is almost about to kill Xu Du.
But in fact, the situation on the battlefield on the front line is not so optimistic.
After the 30,000 elite soldiers led by Yu Ban were wiped out, Cao Cao later sent Xu Huang to lead an army to support Cao Ren, and now Xu Huang is leading an army to confront Guan Yu face to face.
The place where Xu Huang's army was encamped was only three zhang away from Guan Yu's army surrounding Fancheng.
Xu Huang is not a mediocre talent, he deliberately set up camp like this, just to bite Guan Yu's main force to the death and make him in a dilemma.
Under the pressure of such a good general, if Guan Yu retreats rashly, it will be easy for Xu Huang to take advantage of it, and if the orderly retreat turns into a big rout,
That Mi Yang had to be emo on the spot.
I have to find a way to solve Xu Huang's trouble, otherwise I won't feel at ease when I retreat.
And without the return defense of the main force in Guan Yu's hands, it is really unknown whether Jiangling City can defend it in the face of the onslaught of Eastern Wu.
Time for thinking always passed quickly, and soon it was completely dark.
Just when Mi Yang felt that Mi Zhong's capture of Xu Shen might fail, the light of torches and a noise suddenly sounded outside the courtyard.
Listening carefully to the noisy sound, Mi Yang vaguely heard Mi Zhong's voice.
Mi Yang's heart suddenly became anxious.
Mi Yang immediately walked out of the corridor and came to the courtyard gate.
After Mi Yang came to the courtyard gate, he saw Mi Zhong's figure, but Mi Zhong's figure at this time was blocked by Mi Fang's guards guarding outside the courtyard gate.
Through the light of the torches in everyone's hands, Mi Yang vaguely saw that Mi Zhong was followed by his own guards, and among the guards, there was a faint person who was tied up by five flowers.
The reason why Mi Zhong was blocked by Mi Fang's personal guards was that Mi Zhong was covered with blood stains at this time.
In addition, Mi Zhong and his own guards are both armed with sharp blades, looking like they have just fought hard from the battlefield, and they look vicious, Mi Fang's personal guards are naturally impossible to put Mi Zhong in for Mi Fang's safety.
But fortunately, Mi Fang's personal guards also know that Mi Zhong is Mi Yang's personal entourage.
In addition, after Mi Zhong and his party were stopped by Mi Fang's personal guards, they did not continue to forcibly enter.
Therefore, the two sides only confronted each other for a while, and did not cause a clash of swords.
Seeing this scene, Mi Yang quickly stepped forward and came to Mi Zhong.
Mi Zhong saw that Mi Yang was coming, and he was about to pay homage to Mi Yang in an instant, Mi Yang stopped Mi Zhong's worship, and then looked at Mi Zhong with inquiring eyes,
Mi Zhong knew what Mi Yang meant, and he nodded lightly to Mi Yang.
After getting Mi Zhong's affirmation, Mi Yang was overjoyed.
And Mi Fang's personal guards also let down their vigilance for a while after seeing Mi Yang come out.
Mi Yang is Mi Fang's only son, and they naturally recognize him.
Then Mi Yang took out the Mi Fang seal letter in his arms, and showed it to Mi Fang's guards in the firelight,
"No one is allowed to leak out tonight's affairs, otherwise military justice will be dealt with, and the three clans will be guilty."
After Mi Fang's personal guard commander stepped forward to carefully identify the seal letter in Mi Yang's hand, he immediately bowed to Mi Yang and said,
"Yui."
Although the people present tonight are either Mi Fang's henchmen or Mi Yang's henchmen, there is no need to worry too much about being known to outsiders, but it is always right to warn you more about everything.
After saying that, Mi Yang immediately led Mi Zhong and his personal guards outside.
Mi Yang wanted to go outside Fancheng that night.
