Volume 2 The Rise of Jingzhou Chapter 489 - Shangyong Hunts and Kills!
Will Guan Yu be afraid of Zhang Liao?
If someone really dares to say such ridiculous remarks in front of Guan Yu, then I am afraid that he will be directly killed by Guan Yu on the spot in the next moment.
It's impossible to even have a whole corpse!
Guan Yu knew very well, and Zhang Liao also knew very well that the reason why their previous battle was able to fight so weirdly was not because his Zhang Liao's talent was far above Guan Yu.
It's all because Zhang Liao has a time difference, and Guan Yu is from afar, so he doesn't have any possibility of a big war at all, and it can even be said that he drove the ducks to the shelves.
Forcibly killed!
Guan Yu rushed over immediately after getting the news of Jiangxia's danger, there were not many soldiers and horses who could lead, and there were also not many generals who could lead them.
The soldiers and horses under his command, the elite soldiers and horses of his henchmen, all came slowly from the rear under the leadership of the four generals of Hedong.
And Guan Yu came directly with Zhou Cang and Guan Ping.
The news he got was that Cao Jun suddenly returned to attack, and Lian Zhan Lianjie rushed directly towards Jiangxia County.
Even in the battle report, the main general of their Cao army was not Zhang Liao, but Cao Ren, who was directly hammered to the ground by Guan Yu and couldn't struggle to live or die.
In the face of Cao Ren's counterattack, the arrogant Guan Yu was actually prepared in his heart.
He originally wanted to rush back directly with the generals, and then gather troops and horses from the north of Jiangxia County and start to counterattack, and finally beat this Cao Ren and the others back again.
Even if you can't convince him, you have to make him honest...
But when Guan Yu entered this Jiangxia County, he found that things were completely different from what he imagined.
The counterattack came back not because of Cao Ren, who was beaten by him, but Zhang Wenyuan, the general who had just followed Cao Chun to lead the tiger and leopard cavalry to become famous in the world and almost annihilated the Wuhuan people.
This guy is not only one of Cao Mengde's pioneers, but even his subordinates are real elites at this time.
The first is the hundreds of elite tiger and leopard riders that Cao Chun gave him, and the other is the Wuhuan rangers he surrendered....
Especially those Wuhuan rangers, who were one of the most famous mercenaries of the Han Dynasty.
Now under his command of Zhang Liao, it is even more amazing.
And Zhang Liao was born in the state in his early years, and he was good at leading cavalry, especially foreign cavalry, and this time the destruction of Wuhuan made him even more shocked in the hearts of Wuhuan people.
Together, these two are not as simple as one plus one equals two.
On the other hand, this Guan Yu is the opposite, he came from afar, he was already exhausted, and in order to stabilize the situation, he still directly gathered those remnants of the defeated generals.
If it was Cao Ren, Guan Yu could use his bravery and prestige to forcibly stabilize the situation, and then let this army directly continue to serve him.
In the end, the morale was boosted while fighting, and the defeat turned into victory in the end.
He had this certainty because he knew that Cao Ren was able to get to this point, in addition to his own ability, this guy's surname Cao occupied a big reason.
The second reason was that he knew that Cao Ren did not have any cavalry under his command, so he had enough morale to complete the initial stable situation.
But what he never expected was that this guy... He doesn't do what he usually does.
This was a cavalry charge, and then after a charge, the situation collapsed completely.
Guan Yu, who was completely unprepared, and Jiangxia's morale was already low, and even if Guan Yu had the ability to splash the sky, he would not be able to save the situation.
can only rely on his own bravery and prestige to fight and retreat, as much as possible to protect the soldiers and horses.
And what worries Guan Yu the most is that the guy he usually looks down on the most, the Cao Ren of the Cao family, also appeared here at this time.
And then.... Eyeing him, it seems that as long as Zhang Liao tears his mouth again, this guy will rush over without hesitation.
Just this kind of thought, so that Guan Yu can't help but worry....
Therefore, in the face of Guan Ping's words, he could only snort coldly, and then let them do their own things with peace of mind.
Evacuation, this is the way to go....
On the other side, when the fighting between Nanyang Wancheng and Jiangxia Xiyang was in full swing, Fangling County of Shangyong County also gathered a group of thousands of soldiers and horses.
These soldiers quickly blocked all the necessary roads along the way from Xiangyang to Shangyong, and even from Shangyong to Nanyang County, and set up soldiers and horses to patrol in these places.
This guy has also directly set up hundreds of checkpoints here, just like this, it is simply a direct martial law for half of Shangyong County.
And the one in charge of all this is the strangest existence among the children of Jingzhou, Kuai Qi.
Kuai Qi, that is the son and nephew of the brothers of the Jingzhou celebrity Kuai family, and he is also the existence that was originally regarded as a treasure by the Kuai family.
Although his talent is not so good, and his status is not so prominent, he is definitely quite capable of doing it in the Kuo family.
And he also volunteered to marry the lonely Zhuge family, and he didn't even care that the Zhuge family had completely lost power now....
With this ability, he has to make people sigh.
And this guy seems to be a famous man in Jingzhou, but his personality is extraordinarily jumpy, and every move is completely devoid of any rules.
It looks like a fool's errand.
But some people in this world seem to be messing around, but in fact, they have done a lot of earth-shattering behaviors, and when it really happens, they can only applaud.
But obviously, this Kuai Qi does not have this ability.
This guy's seemingly foolish behavior is pure nonsense, but with his family background and ability.
In the end, he also got a good position, the lieutenant of Shangyong County.
Of course, this position is more important for Shangyong County to become one of the back roads of the Kuai family, which exists now.
This point, that Kuai Qi is also very clear....
"Husband..."
Kuai Qi's wife, Zhuge Shi, came to the top of Fangling City, looked at the city wall that was constantly being repaired, and then looked back at the soldiers who were stepping up their training, her brows were a little tight, and her face was a little worried.
"Is there going to be a war?"
"I don't know... Perhaps. Kuai Qi gently hugged his wife into his arms, "But you don't have to worry, there is a Xiangshi who has calculated it for her husband, saying that there is a catastrophe when her husband is one hundred and thirty years old..."
"So what?" Zhuge blinked, not understanding where his husband had said this again.
"Look, there is still a catastrophe for a husband who is one hundred and thirty years old, and this year he is less than thirty years old, so naturally he is safe!" After Kuai Qi finished speaking, he whispered in Zhuge Shi's ear, "Besides, the husband is still waiting to be a father." ”
Hearing this, Zhuge Shi's face also turned red, and he slapped it directly on Kuaiqi's chest, "You are not doing it properly, be careful that when you are one hundred and thirty years old, the grave will be bulldozed!" ”
"That won't happen, even if the Kuai family is no longer in Jingzhou, no one will dare to destroy the ancestral tomb of the Kuai family."
"You tired character, be careful that Grandpa doesn't let you enter the ancestral grave."
After Zhuge finished speaking, he turned around and left directly, looking at the distant back, Kuai Qi also laughed loudly, with a happy look on his face.
"It should be almost there...."After laughing, Kuai Qi looked at the direction of Xiangyang in the distance, "Although Cai Mao is blocking the enemy, Xiangyang is a tall city, and many means have been set up along the way...
But if Cai Mao is too stupid, what should I do if it breaks the big thing?
That's it, we just need to follow orders, and we don't have to...
Even if there is really any accident, with the ability of the uncle, they can save the day.
If you really have any ideas, if you really have any problems, it's a big deal to fight to the death.
With my ability, at least I can... I can block it for a few days...
Well, for sure! ”
After thinking of this, Kuai Qi felt that it was still not accurate, so he asked people to go to Shangyong County Shoufu again, and a large number of city defense equipment were drawn from Shangyong's treasury.
Two days later, Kuai Qi, who was preparing for the war, finally received the news that a rather embarrassed team had appeared in Fangling County.
"There are a lot of people in the team, young and old, who don't look like poor people, and a large number of frames seem to be pulling goods, grain and grass..."
Kuai Qi looked at the captain in front of him who was telling him, and was silent for a long time before finally saying a word.
"You... It was a bandit before, and this place of concern is really different! ”
The words made the lieutenant's face red, and then he sneered at Kuaiqi.
"Hey, it's really..."Kuai Qi couldn't help laughing, then stood up directly, walked up to him and whispered.
"Those people are Kuai's family members, and they are going to Nanyang County through here, so you can't pay attention to them like this in the future."
"The last will be guilty!"
"Hey!" Kuai Qi grabbed the captain who was about to kneel down and plead, "If you do this again, we won't have to talk about it in the future."
Come with me and greet you, and... Let the soldiers prepare. ”
"Du Wei wants to kill his relatives in righteousness?" The lieutenant's words made Kuai Qi almost can't help but slap him.
"Didn't you just say that they were quite embarrassed, there must be someone chasing them behind, order troops to go with me and escort them into the city!"
"No!" When the captain heard this, he immediately yelled, and then rushed out and began to call the soldiers, "Captain Kuai's family is in trouble, brothers copy the guy for me, don't be cowardly for a while, do you hear it!" ”
Kuai Qi, who had just walked to the school ground, couldn't help but shake his head when he saw such a fierce scene.
"This mediocre soldier and horse is really different from Xiangyang, very good..."
"Someone, tell the treasury to prepare wine and meat, and when I come back, I will add a few meals of wine and meat to the soldiers, and the money will come out of my private treasury."
"No!"
It has only been more than half a month since he came to Shangyong, and this Kuai Qi is already one of the few people in Shangyong County, and his official position is equivalent to that of Taishou Shen Tan, and his family background is above Shen Tan.
The most important thing is that he is righteous and squanders money, and never looks down on anyone because of his family background, how can such characters not be supported.
Compared with Kuaiqi, who is thriving in Shangyong, the people who fled from Xiangyang on the other side are not so easy.
Although most of them have carriages, and there are many servants and private soldiers to protect and serve, the speed is naturally not comparable to those who flee and migrate.
But after all, there are a lot of people, there is enough baggage, and the speed is indeed not fast, but the situation on the other side is different.
Liu Bei quickly took Xiangyang, which already surprised them.
But what they didn't expect was that this guy... Liu Bei hasn't done anything to them yet, and he hasn't found out their specific behavior and direction.
This army has already attacked them.
You must know that after Liu Bei broke through Xiangyang, he immediately fell into all kinds of problems.
Appeasing the people and inspecting the city, Liu Bei's kindness became his biggest problem at this time, so that he couldn't let this Xiangyang go and let it be chaotic.
Then go after the people who have just been discovered and have disappeared.
Liu Bei is now constantly issuing new orders in Xiangyang.
First, Pang Lin and Xiang Pet inspected the city to prevent and control security, and then let his lieutenant Feng Xi and Zhang Nan guard Xiangyang, and appointed Zhuge Liang as the acting county guard of Nanjun in the name of Liu Qi.
Then he followed Liu Biao's example and divided Xiangyang and other places from Nanjun, let Zhuge Liang be the county guard of Xiangyang County, and let Yuan Jian serve as the county guard of Nanjun....
In this way, the situation in Xiangyang can be stabilized.
Then Guan Yu and Wei Yan went to Jiangxia to replace Xi Zhen and others to garrison Jiangxia, which was already chaotic.
Let the angry Guan Yu deal with Cao Jun, and let Wei Yan beware of Jiangdong.
Then he continued to send soldiers and horses to join Huo Jun and others in Nanyang County, and the two sides set up a defensive line in Nanyang, waiting for Cao Mengde's army to attack.
As for Wancheng's clerkship... Both Liu Bei and Liu Qi seemed to have forgotten him, and there was no appointment for him...
Although Liu Bei didn't say anything, the extraordinarily abnormal actions made by Wen Ping at the most critical moment still made Liu Bei understand a lot of things.
He knew that there was definitely something wrong with this guy.
And this problem is not because of himself, nor because of Liu Qi, it is probably because of the person he hasn't seen for a long time...
It is precisely because of this that Liu Bei didn't say anything or ask anything, but just let Wenpin continue to do his own thing.
Even when everyone asked about your own Wancheng, he was directly vague.
As for what Liu Bei thinks in his own heart...
Liu Bei himself didn't know what he wanted to do.
To be honest, Liu Bei knows his current situation, and he even understands that he is no longer the self he once was.
And I feel very frightened about the situation that may have been in Jingzhou, but I didn't see myself at all, as if my little caution has been completely seen through.
This made his heart even more panicked, even cramped.
He is not afraid of anything, but inwardly... It seems that there is still a little guilt.
It is precisely because of this that after Liu Bei led people to directly attack Xiangyang, Kuai Yue took away a large amount of grain and baggage in Xiangyang City, as well as those celebrities and their families.
Of course, this heart is very urgent, and he even wishes that he would not stop for a moment, and lead the troops to chase and kill him.
even asked Liu Qi to issue orders directly to the soldiers and horses in Zigui and other places as the pastor of Jingzhou, and if he saw Kuai Yue and others who fled from Xiangyang, he would be directly detained...
But he himself didn't have any intention of making a move, even if the generals under his command had begun to ask for his life.
But in the face of this situation, he still shook his head.
"The people of Xiangyang City are the most important, if we leave, I am afraid that this will make those people in Xiangyang City do something bad.
Wouldn't that make it difficult for them? ”
Liu Bei's reason... I really don't know what to say.
It's not wrong to say he's right, but it's a reason.
Then Pang Tong's face is really ugly.
After all... Now many precautions in Xiangyang and other places are made by him personally.
It's just a complete distrust of him.
But although this Liu Bei can't attack, but the other generals are not impossible to hunt down, after asking for help again and again, Liu Bei finally very helplessly named one of the generals who had never opened his mouth at all.
"Where is Deng Fang!"
"The last general!"
"You.... Why don't you go to war? ”
"Whether to go to war or not, this is by He and others, it is the order of the lord.
The last general is a general under the command of the lord, so he naturally has to focus on all the ideas of the lord.
If the lord needs us to fight, then he will naturally fight.
If the lord doesn't need it..."
"Good!" Liu Bei didn't wait for the other party to finish speaking, so he directly slapped the case and praised loudly, "The old man likes your character like Deng Fang."
In that case, this time... It's up to you to personally hunt down and kill the Kuai family and the others.
Other than that... Let Shamoko personally accompany you on a trip.
Whether they went to Xichuan Hanzhong or went to Cao Mengde, there were many mountains and rivers along the way.
There are also some benefits to having Samoko by your side! ”
"No!"
After Liu Bei gave the order, this Shamoke and Deng Fang also immediately began to gallop away, and pursued all the way to Shangyong.
And then.....
"Deng boy, what are you afraid of!" Deputy Shamoke looked at the mediocre terrain with an excited face, "Although we haven't been to this mediocre land.
But this place is accessible in all directions, even if you are ambushed, don't worry, let's rush out! ”
"Do you know how to fight and kill?" Deng Fang looked at Shamoke with a helpless expression, "That Shangyong Lieutenant is the Kuai Qi of the Kuai family, and I heard that he has already garrisoned Fangling."
It should be to answer Kuai Yue and others..."
"So what are you waiting for!" Shamoke couldn't help but stare at him after hearing this, "Since it's a kid from the Kuai family, if he obediently lets him go, otherwise... Watch me hammer his head! ”
"...."Deng Fang looked at the blade in Shamoke's hand, and his face couldn't help twitching, "Let's tell the lord about the matter here."
That Kuaiqi.... But Brother Zhuge Junshi, what do you think of taking action against him? ”
