Volume 2 The Rise of Jingzhou Chapter 462 - Jiangxia of Jingzhou Chaos
September of the twelfth year of Jian'an.
The land of the Han Dynasty once again fell into a brief lull, and the Hebei war entered the final stage, with a large area of land, a large number of soldiers and generals of the Yuan army beginning to compete for the avatar of Cao Mengde.
The imperial court soldiers and horses under Liu Xie's command had also slowly withdrawn to their places at this time.
And a new round of war also broke out in the south of this big man.
"Kill it!"
The land of Jiangxia County in Jingzhou, the northern border of Xiyang is idle.
Na Lu Jie had already appeared here with Jiangxia soldiers and horses, and looking at the city wall of Naxiyang County, his face became more and more heavy.
"Here... It is that Xiyang County, which was also an important town in Jiangxia back then, guarding against the chaos in Yuzhou!
Back then, Sun Wentai didn't even breach here, and now this place is so lost that you're lost.
Or did I lose it to that Cao Ren... Lost to such a lonely and unknown person.
What a shame you guys are! ”
Lu Jie seemed to be unhappy if he didn't say two words about Sun Wentai every day, and at this time, seeing that the big war was about to break out, he couldn't help but say it to everyone again.
There was a pride in himself in those words, and for the others... That's not the slightest politeness.
The generals of the army, Su Fei and Deng Long, were even more gloomy, and they wanted to say something, but because of the special status of this old guy, it was not easy to say it too badly.
In the end, he could only swallow his anger and whisper and laugh at the guy in front of him.
"General Lu, this Cao Ren is not here now, and the one who is stationed in Xiyang at this time is his general Lu Chang under Cao Ren...
I'm afraid that the general has never heard of this Lu Chang's reputation.
Speaking of which, he is also from my Jingzhou, born in Nanyang Bowang, which is a famous man in my Jingzhou.
It's just that he was bewitched by that Cao Ren, and finally joined his Cao Ren and became a general in Cao Ren's hands.
Over the years, he has repeatedly made military exploits in Cao Ren's army, and his prestige is far-reaching, and his courage is well known in well-known states and counties.
From Lieutenant Wu Meng, he was promoted all the way to General Lijie Zhonglang, and now he has become a general under his Cao Ren!
I even heard that Cao Ren was going to ask Cao Mengde for him again, and asked Cao Mengde to ask His Majesty to seal the Neihou for this guy..."
"Hahaha...."
Before Su Fei's words were finished, he heard a burst of laughter from Lu Jie again, and the laughter was debauched without the slightest hint of subtlety and restraint, but only revealed a thick sneer.
"What do you mean, old general...."
Now that Su Fei saw this scene, no matter how good Su Fei's temper was, he couldn't help but look ugly now.
He really can't do it, what qualifications does this old guy in front of him have to show off his might here.
Here they are sneering ....
He was just lucky enough to smash Sun Wentai to death back then.
Even if the Jiangdong Tiger is a famous general in the world, it is just his luck, if it is really credited, he Lu Jie is probably nothing.
Today, it's here that it's endless, and it's so mocking of them.
This is simply too deceitful!
Seeing that Su Fei's face was becoming more and more gloomy and cold, Lu Jie's expression did not restrain at all, on the contrary, his expression at this time became extremely full of mockery.
"The old man laughs at you for being cowardly and afraid, and it's just a matter of Cao Ren and others being afraid.
That little-known Lu Chang was just a rebel, and he even made you stop.
Seriously... It's really disgraceful!
I have many heroes in Jingzhou, I don't know how many heroes and heroes have come out since ancient times, why are they waiting for this group of timid and fearful people now?
It's ridiculous, ridiculous! ”
"Old general...."
"Shut up!" That Lu Jie seemed to be still angered by this Su Fei, and at this time, he directly ignored the identity of this Su Fei and the status in the hearts of the generals and colonels in this army, and scolded him.
"Don't you hear that the generals are planning but not using, and the soldiers are fine but not many?
This Cao Ren is just a reckless man, and Lu Chang is just a rebel, and they will scare you with a slight attack.
Without the mentality of fighting to the death, how can we fight to the death against that enemy?
This army attacking, the emphasis must be on morale after all!
As long as the soldiers and horses under our command are not afraid of death and attack desperately, then what can Sun Wentai, even if it is the Jiangdong Tiger back then?
Didn't he die at the hands of the old man in the end? ”
“.....”
Su Fei and Deng Long looked at the veteran who was still saying a word to Jiangdong Tiger Sun Wentai, and finally turned their heads silently.
There's a good saying.
It's hard to persuade a damn ghost with good words!
Since this guy has to find his own death, then what use can they do if they tell the heavens down?
Useless!
It's just that this old thing continues to eat and ridicule!
After a burst of sneers, this Lu Jie didn't seem to want to waste any more time, and gave an order directly to the situation in front of him.
"Someone, herald!"
"All the soldiers attack immediately!"
"After the knife and axe are broken! All those who dare to escape will be killed! ”
"Kill!"
With Lu Jie's order, the Jiangxia army moved quickly.
Although it is said that Huang Zu is no longer the Huang Zu of the past few years, he is greedy for money and good name, and does not cultivate martial arts!
But it is undeniable that Jiangxia's soldiers and horses are still useful.
With Lu Jie's order, a large number of soldiers and horses rushed straight towards Na Xiyang City, without the slightest hint of retreat as Lu Jie imagined.
Under the gaze of the axeman, they rushed straight to kill, and they didn't even have a chance to notice these comrades with knives and axes in their hands, staring at them....
Even in this case, Lu Jie couldn't help but praise them.
"I didn't expect that your group of people didn't have any skills, but the soldiers and horses brought out here really had some skills.
Being so fearless of death really doesn't seem like your means.
Not bad... Not bad! ”
Lu Jie was at the rear of the army, and he couldn't help but nod slightly when he looked at the soldiers who rushed out of the sand, but he didn't wait for them to have any ideas.
The situation on the battlefield has changed again....
"Kill~"
With a loud shout, it was passed from the battlefield, and these Jiangxia County soldiers who had just rushed to the city of Xiyang had not had time to make any moves.
has already been impacted by the other party.
With a roar of rage, a soldier and horse who didn't know where they had been hiding appeared in front of them.
Then unceremoniously crushed these Jiangxia County soldiers and horses directly....
"Kill~"
There was another roar, this time a brave general who rode his horse and raised his sword, and the roar continued to rush to the battlefield.
The long knife in his hand was waved again and again, and he slashed again and again, directly killing the Jiangxia soldiers on the battlefield.
Behind him were hundreds of elite cavalry, who followed behind their own generals and swept away the enemy formation in front of them with such ease.
Then he rushed to the heart of the Jiangxia army.
"Who is this?"
At this moment, the loneliness and pride on Lu Jie's face finally froze on his face, looking at the guy who showed off his might and rushed out directly as if he didn't hesitate.
Just got closer and deeper away from him, and his body and mind were greatly traumatized....
"What kind of person is this, why is this guy so brave?
Su Fei, you say, this is... Su Fei, Su Fei, where are you going!
Su Fei Deng Long, you two brutes, there will be an order, and those who escape from the battle will be killed! ”
When Na Lu Jie didn't get enough news after several angry roars, he couldn't help but look behind him.
I wanted to ask why Su Fei and Deng Long didn't continue to speak now.
But what he didn't expect was that when he turned his head around, he found that these two guys had already galloped away with their horses and whips.
Looking at their decisive actions, they really didn't leave any face for themselves.
Anger rose straight up and immediately filled his chest.
Seeing these two guys walking farther and farther away, and the knife and axe man who stayed behind him turned a blind eye to their escape, Lu Jie's heart couldn't help but have a little bad thoughts.
"The old man didn't run away, the old man... The old man was not even afraid of the Jiangdong tiger Sun Wentai back then.
It's just that the two of them have to run away, and the old man is taking them... Yes, the old man wants them to be brought to justice! ”
At this time, Lu Jie finally found a suitable reason for himself, and then rode his horse and whipped his horse, and directly turned the horse's head to flee from here as well.
But.....
"What did you just say? You're not even afraid of Sun Wentai? ”
A somewhat unfamiliar voice appeared behind Lu Jie, and the cold voice with infinite killing intent made Lu Jie's body stiffen directly in place.
Then he tried to turn his body around, to see what kind of figure appeared behind him.
But he didn't have a chance.
Or that the man behind him didn't give him this chance either.
"Idiot, can you make a name for yourself with the Jiangdong Tiger at every turn?
Remember, the one who killed you.... Cow Gold! ”
Flutter~
With the sound of weapons entering the flesh and blood, this Jingzhou veteran, Lu Jie, who had made a breakthrough contribution to Jingzhou back then, died under Xiyang City.
With the death of Na Lu Jie, this Jiangxia revenge war also successfully came to an end.
A large number of soldiers and horses suffered heavy casualties under the cooperation of Lu Chang and Niu Jin, and other soldiers and horses were also slowly evacuated under the support of Su Fei and Deng Long.
Lu Jie's head was hung on the head of Xiyang City, and Su Fei and Deng Long finally decided to keep Jiangxia after a short discussion.
Give up the northern defense line to Liu Bei.
On the eighth day of October in the twelfth year of Jian'an, Guan Yunchang, a general under Liu Bei, officially entered the northern part of Jiangxia County.
Began to take over the war in the northern part of Jiangxia County.
With years of fighting, the experience accumulated during the time when Liu Xie was fighting.
At this time, Guan Yu not only has the same reputation for bravery as in history, but also has the arrogance that is as headache-inducing as in history.
The most important thing is that he also has the ability to do it in history, and even surpasses it....
When Guan Yu entered the northern part of Jiangxia, he immediately retreated the army to cover the evacuation of Jiangxia's soldiers and horses.
At the same time, he personally led the army to fight with Lu Chang and Niu Jin, who were chasing and killing.
When the two of them first fought with Guan Yu, they didn't take Guan Yu seriously, and the two sides fought for a long time and finally did not immediately distinguish the winner.
But with Guan Yu's early ambush on both sides, the soldiers and horses appeared.
After Guan Yu used almost the same method to break the game, the situation on the battlefield also changed dramatically...
The four generals of Hedong under Guan Yu directly intercepted and killed from four aspects, and the cavalry under his command was the elite who came back from Bingzhou.
Not only more elite, but also more sufficient...
Not only that, but under the command of Guan Yu, there were also Guan Ping, Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao, and even his adopted son Qin Lang, who had just grown up, to help him.
At this time, Guan Yu was really strong, and directly led Guan Ping, Qin Lang and others to collide with him from the front.
On the other side, Hedong Si will directly find an opportunity to start intercepting.
After a fight, this Lu Chang and Niu Jin couldn't stop Guan Yu's bravery and fearlessness, nor could they stop the elite soldiers and horses under his command.
In the end, countless elites of the Cao army could only die tragically at the hands of Guan Yu.
By the time Guan Yu struck again, the war had slowly stopped, and the army could only slowly withdraw, and even Xiyang City, which had just been captured, was snatched back by Guan Yu.
As for Lu Jie's corpse, it is naturally the same reason....
was directly snatched back by Guan Yu, which can be regarded as leaving a little face for Jiangxia soldiers and horses....
On the other side, Cao Jun also thought about regrouping again after being captured by Guan Yu, but neither they were able to get any benefits from Guan Yu's hands in a surprise attack or a storm.
Not only was the land of Jiangxia County taken away by him one after another, but even the soldiers and horses were also damaged a lot.
In the end, Cao Ren, who was stationed in Runan County, led the troops to arrive in person, which could be regarded as containing Guan Yu's attack and counterattack.
However, even Cao Ren, who was as fire-like, could only barely guarantee self-defense when facing Guan Yu's attack at this time.
His power is not bad, but he can't help but make Guan Yu's attack even more good.
The two sides fought several battles, and Cao Ren, who had repeatedly attacked as a vanguard, finally recognized his gap.
He is more than self-preservation, and he is also keenly aware that Guan Yu is not only not fatal to attack, but this guy is still improving.
Each attack is a big improvement over the last.
When Cao Ren found out this, he couldn't help but tremble a little in his heart.
He didn't even know if this was his Guan Yu's characteristic.
But he knows very well that once Guan Yu is really let go completely, then it will definitely not be a good thing for him....
"Order all armies, carefully guard the current defense line, and without the order of the general, it is absolutely not allowed to attack without authorization!"
When Cao Ren said this order, he couldn't help but be a little stunned.
Niu Jin and Lu Chang on the side were even more overwhelmed by this sentence.
The most important thing is that after saying this, Chang Diao, the general who has followed Cao Ren for many years and is his real veteran, was directly surprised to grow his mouth.
After all, what kind of character is this Cao Ren in front of them, there is no one in the world who knows more than them.
Tiebi General Cao Zixiao, this is the evaluation of him in the history books in the future.
But that's not Cao Ren today.
The reason why he has the title of Cao Zixiao, the iron-walled general, is because he has escaped the death situation by relying on his extreme toughness to let go in the face of two situations that can be called death.
And persevered.
In an offensive and defensive battle in Nanjun, he faced Guan Yu's North Road and was cut off from all his back roads and hopes.
In front of Zhou Yu's Jiangdong elite continued to attack, and even in order to increase the intensity of the attack, Zhou Yu also seconded Zhang Fei to his command.
It was all-round restraint and siege.
That's it, he was stunned to resist the attack for a year by sticking to it, and then saved his life in the desperate situation.
even kept most of the soldiers and horses left by Cao Mengde.
And the other battle of Fancheng is needless to say, if the historical Fancheng is breached, then even if Lu Meng successfully crosses the river in white clothes, he will not hesitate to retreat.
Because at that time, Nanyang County was already erosive, and the road from Nanyang to Xuchang was flattened by many thieves.
There is still turmoil in Yecheng....
It can be said that Fancheng, Xinye, Nanyang and even Runan and other places surrendered almost instantly.
And Shangyong County will immediately turn the gun, chop up the Shen Yi who wants to surrender and feed it to the dogs, and then let Liu Feng come over with soldiers and horses.
At the same time, Hanzhong is also connected with Jingzhou, and the people in Jiangdong pointed out by Guan Yu Bingfeng really dare not make trouble.
At that time, it will be difficult for him Cao Mengde not to move the capital.
It's just a pity that this good situation was finally interrupted by Cao Ren.
In another desperate situation, he Cao Ren directly resisted Guan Yu's attack, and gave Cao Wei, who had not yet started, breathe a sigh of relief.
These two battles finally established him as the general of Cao Ren.
But that was Cao Ren in history, and it was his later period.
What is Cao Ren today?
It is the vanguard under Cao Mengde, the sharp arrow cluster under Cao Mengde, and the invincible fierce general!
He Cao Ren... Will defend?
Fart!
Before today, if someone told the generals under Cao Ren's command, he, Cao Ren, would choose to let go because of someone or something.
Then he didn't think much about it, and just whipped the guy who was full of nonsense away with a scraper in his ear.
Their general Cao Ren, that is a brave general who would rather die on the battlefield than retreat half a step.
How is it possible to choose defense?
His wise words were... Defend? Attack, keep attacking, kill the opponent all, that's the best defense in the world!
This is Cao Zixiao, the general of the Cao clan, and the brave general Cao Ren Cao Zixiao, one of the twin stars of the Cao family!
