Zhuge sat in a military tent.

He frowned, looking at the bamboo slip handed to him by Guan Lin spread out in front of him, and the candle next to him jumped and jumped in the dim night.

Liao Huajin said, "You really had shit luck today, you spoke to Guan Gong so boldly, and in the end, Guan Gong didn't even punish you." ”

Zhuge Ke sneered and said, "This shows that what Yunqi Gongzi said is right, I am his person, and Guan Gong only dares to scare me at most, not touch me." ”

"Hehe..."Hearing this, Liao Hua said "hehe".

- "Yunqi Gongzi, that's Guan Gong's son... What are you?'

Time...

Liao Hua didn't know whether to praise Zhuge Ke's newborn calf for not being afraid of tigers?

is still emotional, and he is one who insists on going to the end on the road of death.

Eventually...

came all the way to the starry night, and both of them were doing things for Yunqi Gongzi.

The relationship between the two seems to have inexplicably become a lot closer.

Liao Hua reminded: "Don't think that this time you are doing things for Yunqi Gongzi, you have no fear, Guan Gong has always been strict, and he is only open to Yunqi Gongzi, you are different from Yunqi Gongzi, just now when you chanted the letterhead that made Guan Gong write a letter to himself, I was covered in cold sweat, and I was about to be scared to death." ”

"Guan Gong didn't punish me in the end!" Zhuge Ke met Liao Hua's gaze, "To a certain extent, this shows that Yunqi Gongzi's vision is really extraordinary, he can see what others can't see, and according to this, perhaps... He proposed that Guan Gong abandon Xiangfan and attack Jiangxia instead, which was the right idea. ”

- Whew!

Liao Hua let out a long breath and spread his hands, "Jiangxia is easy to fight, but the temptation of Xiangfan is too great, which one to fight?" Who knows? ”

That's when ...

Zhuge Ke's eyes blinked, he slowly got up and sighed: "If my expectations are not bad, which one to fight, there is already a conclusion..."

"Ah-" It seems that Liao Hua can't understand the meaning of Zhuge Ke's words.

Zhuge Ke changed his statement: "On the issue of fighting Xiangfan or Jiangxia, Yunqi Gongzi has already won... It's still a sure win! ”

"What are you talking nonsense?" Liao Hua stretched out his hand to Zhuge Ke's forehead, and he found that this forehead was not hot, why did he start talking nonsense.

Zhuge Ke smiled, "Lord Liao, you think, the front... Just now, Gongzi Lin successfully predicted the action of Wenpin's burning of the ship, Guan Gong won a big victory with this information, and now, Gongzi Yunqi borrowed my mouth to tell the story... If the Guan family army conquers Xiangfan, there will be no life in ten deaths, and the head will be in a different place..."

"If Master Liao were an ordinary soldier, what would you think? What kind of attitude will you have? It won't be long before the news spreads throughout the three armies. When the time comes... If you attack Jiangxia, what will be the morale? But if Guan Gong insists on going his own way, especially attacking Xiangfan, what will be the morale? ”

This...

Liao Hua is also a person who is well versed in the art of war and strategy, and now that he is reminded by Zhuge Ke, he seems to have suddenly realized it.

"Oh... So that's it! ”

He reached out and knocked on the door of his head... He seemed to understand the game laid out by Yunqi Gongzi at once.

I see...

I see!

The fourth prince never felt that Zhuge Ke had the ability to successfully persuade Guan Gong.

But...

He persuaded Guan Gong about this;

When he persuaded Guan Gong, his words would spread throughout the three armies.

And in the minds of the soldiers of the Guan family army now.

Because of the great victory in Fuhu Mountain, Guan Lin's prediction is extremely accurate.

In other words, the soldiers of the Guan family army will also subconsciously feel...

Guan Lin's prediction was just as accurate this time.

If it is to attack Jiangxia, then it will be a great victory;

If you attack Xiangfan, then there is no life for ten deaths!

And under such a military heart.

Guan Gong had no choice at all.

"I can't think of it..."While Liao Hua was amazed by Guan Lin's layout, he couldn't help but look sideways at Zhuge Ke in front of him, and he muttered: "Do you young people have such a city government now?" ”

Zhuge Ke smiled slightly, patted his chest gently, and said to Liao Hua with confidence:

"Young people are easily bullied because they are fighting on their own and cannot form a joint force."

"It's different now, with the leader of the Cloud Banner Prince, we young people are not easy to mess with..."

When I say this... The corners of Zhuge Ke's mouth opened, he was smiling, he felt... He seems to be able to understand Guan Lin a little.

And it's because I understand this.

More and more, he felt... This Guan Si Gongzi - unfathomable.

…

…

Tomorrow morning, the third watch will make rice, and the fifth watch will go out to attack Xiangfan urgently.

There was a mess in the camp of the Guan family, no one was packing up the baggage, and many officers and men of the Guan family army were writing letters.

To be precise, there were only a few literate people in the Guan family's army, and the soldiers surrounded them and asked these people who could write to help them write letters to their families and send them to their old mothers or their wives at home.

Guan Yinping heard the noise, strode out, saw many people gathering, and hurriedly asked, "What are you doing?" ”

A soldier arched his hand and said, "Aren't you going to attack Xiangfan tomorrow?" So... Therefore, we write letters to our families in advance, even after death, so that our relatives at home have a thought. ”

Guan Yinping frowned when he heard this, and said angrily: "Why didn't I know that I would die? Who told you you were going to die? ”

The soldier snorted: "It's the news from Guan Sigongzi's order, saying that if the second general goes east to conquer Jiangxia, he will definitely win... If it is a northern expedition to Xiangfan, it will be ten deaths, even if the news sent by Guan Sigongzi last time was accurate, even if the Wenpin burned the ship, this time it will probably be accurate, the second general insists on attacking Xiangfan, we will inevitably... Inevitable... Ten deaths! ”

Guan Yinping pointed at the soldier, "Hugh let me hear such words again, bewitch the army's heart, let my father and brother know, and your life will be gone!" ”

At this moment, there was a loud shout not far away.

- "Someone, tie up all these letter writers, and behead them in front of the army for the crime of spreading rumors and disturbing the hearts of the army..."

This voice was shouted by Guan Yu's second son, Guan Xing.

Guan Yinping saw from afar that Guan Xing's personal soldiers rushed up and tied up a few soldiers.

The soldier begged for mercy: "Wronged, wronged... I didn't run away from the battle, but I just left a letter, the fourth son can pinch and calculate, tomorrow there will be no life, we will do what he said... What's wrong with leaving a letter to your family? ”

The soldiers kept arguing...

It's just that no one cares about their words.

They were dragged down screaming, and the other soldiers who were still writing the letter just now were stunned, and then they hurriedly knelt on the ground, "The young general spares his life!" The major general spare them! ”

Guan Xing exhaled deeply, he knew that the crux of this matter was not in these soldiers.

And in the father, in the body of the fourth brother.

He hurriedly changed his mind, "Tomorrow when attacking the city, when employing people, don't behead it, twenty military staffs, and the punishment of Yuanmen to kneel for two hours, to set an example!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was grateful.

Guan Xing continued: "Military orders are like mountains, military law is ruthless, if I see that before the war, there are still people who write to say something discouraged, I will not tolerate it!" ”

At the gate of the military tent in Guansuo, there were also many generals around.

Guan Suo has a better personality, so these generals asked Guan Suo noisily, "The second general's side... Can't you take back your fate? ”

Another general asked: "Obviously, the fourth prince said that fighting Jiangxia is a complete victory, and fighting Xiangfan is ten deaths, why... Why did the second general have to be stubborn? ”

"Ahh

With a sigh, Guan Suo shook his head helplessly, he thought of yesterday, he had already persuaded him.

Even, he moved out of the fourth brother.

It's also a loss to move out of the fourth brother, otherwise... Guan Suo is afraid that he will have to be disposed of by the fifty military sticks.

"Don't ask me, father's character, you don't know, unless... Unless..."

In the end, Guan Suo hesitated, but swallowed back the last words.

But the soldiers hurriedly asked, "Unless what?" ”

"Unless..."Guan Suo sighed helplessly, "Unless the fourth brother is here, at this time, also... He is the only one who can persuade his father! ”

These words were chanted, and Guan Suo's eyes were facing south.

It was as if his expectant, earnest eyes had passed through this rocky night... crossed the mountains and saw the fourth brother Guan Lin that he was thinking about.

…

…

Guan Yu was reading the military newspaper, and Zhou Cang whispered beside him.

"The second general is not thinking about it anymore?"

Guan Yu looked at Zhou Cang incredulously, "Do you also want to learn from Wei Zhi and Zhuge Ke, standing on the side of the cloud banner against Guan?" ”

A cold word.

Zhou Cang hurriedly surrendered his hand, "The last general will not dare!" ”

At this time, Guan Ping came in to report: "Father, the child has come to ask for instructions, march tomorrow morning, and capture Xiangfan's plan... Subject to change. ”

Guan Yu thought for a moment, and then said: "Xiangyang is in the south, Fancheng is in the north, feint to attack Xiangyang, and attack Fancheng with all your might... Once Fancheng is taken, Xiangyang will be self-defeating! ”

Guan Yu's words, Guan Yu's tone was the same as always...

There is simply no room for maneuvering.

Guan Ping bit his lip slightly, "But..."

He uttered the word "may", and then there was still something to say.

"Something to say."

"Father doesn't know yet, now the military camp has spread, saying that the fourth brother predicted that if he attacked Xiangfan, he would die without life, and there would be no place to bury him, and the soldiers were writing letters to their families, leaving a testament to their families, and the morale of the entire Guan family army almost fell to the bottom, this siege..."

When Guan Ping's words came to this, Guan Yu's face was gloomy: "Nonsense! Tanzhi, you quickly go to each battalion to give orders, and say that the commander's military order is like a mountain, and he will attack Fancheng as usual early tomorrow morning, and those who violate the order will be beheaded! ”

Just as Guan Yu's voice came out.

"Father!"

"Second General..."

Guan Ping and Zhou Cang spoke in unison, and at this moment, another crisp female voice of "Father Shuai" came from outside the tent, it was Guan Yinping, and she also came.

The three of them knelt down to Guan Yu in unison, they didn't say anything, but Guan Yu seemed to know everything.

It was at this moment that he realized...

Guan Lin's stinky boy is far away in Changsha County, but his words and his behavior still affect the Guan family's army and the morale of everyone here.

- "He's actually forcing Guan to do so!"

And with Guan Ping, Zhou Cang, and Guan Yinping kneeling.

Guan Yu, whose face was originally like frost, seemed to have his heart like being poured with iron juice... There was a little bit of loosening.

Or rather, this loosening is bursting the embankment, and it is out of control!

Even, Guan Yu discovered...

I don't know when, attacking Xiangfan or Jiangxia is no longer a choice for him Guan Yu.

Under the interference of Guan Lin, under the indirect transmission of Guan Suo and Zhuge Ke.

The answer has been removed.

It becomes a multiple-choice question with one answer and one option!

- "Yunqi, Yunqi, it is you who say that the stronger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish, and it is you who say that you will not be allowed to fight Xiangfan!"

- "Yunqi, you can't understand your father's good life."

…

…

…

Xiangyang City, twenty miles east.

On the east bank of the Han River across the river from Yuliangzhou, there is a "Huying Terrace" here.

As the name suggests, this Huying Terrace is because the former Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao likes to play with eagles, and the eagles fly high, so they are specially built, also known as "Jingsheng Terrace".

At this moment, Zhao Yan followed Zhang Liao and slowly ascended to the empty and unmanned Flying Eagle Platform.

Zhang Liao couldn't help but sing a Yuefu song softly.

- "The wild eagle comes, under the ten thousand mountains, the barren mountains have no food and the eagle is hungry, and flies to tie the colored silk for you." ”

- "The rabbits in the north are old and white, and they raise children to eat in autumn every year. I can't get it if I want to hit it, and the old rabbit eagle is weak...... So that the eagle can call Yifan Cao, the sky is cloudy and the moon is black and the fox howls at night"

As Zhang Liao's five-tone unsound voice fell, Zhao Yan reminded: "Back then, Liu Biao liked to sing this song "Wild Eagle Song" on this Eagle Calling Platform, but he never thought that he played with the eagle, but was finally pecked blind by the eagle! ”

The eagle in Zhao Yan's mouth is naturally Liu Bei...

As for being pecked blind by Liu Bei, it is... Liu Bei took over Jiangxia Banjun in Jingzhou by supporting Liu Biao's eldest son, Liu Qi, and occupied a place in the Battle of Chibi.

"Hehe..."

It was Zhang Liao, who smiled very happily and pointed to a lake under the stage.

Due to the dry season, the water level in the lake is extremely low.

Zhang Liao said: "I heard that the name of this lake is Tanxi Lake, when Liu Bei came to Xiangyang for a banquet, Kuai Yue and Cai Mao planned to take this opportunity to hoe Liu Bei, but they never thought that Liu Bei fled out of the west gate of Xiangyang City to Nanzhang!" ”

"When he passed through this Tanxi Lake, he fell into a quagmire, and his life was lost here, but he didn't want him to sit down 'Luma' to jump three feet, and he actually jumped over Tanxi and escaped!"

Mention this Tanxi Lake, mention the story of Ma Yue Tanxi.

Zhang Liao's tone inevitably had a little more regret...

Oh, yes...

In Zhang Liao's view, if Liu Bei died in the swamp of "Tanxi Lake".

Liu Biao has undoubtedly become... The object of revenge of the two brothers Guan and Zhang.

And Yun Chang, in order to avenge his eldest brother, has a great chance that he will defect to Cao Wei, conquest of Liu Biao, and take revenge!

If so, they are a pair of Shanxi villagers, a pair of close friends...

to be able to fight side by side.

"—Thinking back then..."

Zhang Liao already has a taste of nostalgia for the past.

It's just a pity, it's a pity...

After all, it's just a beautiful vision.

It was Zhao Yan, he heard a little deep meaning, and said lightly.

"I listened to the urgent message from the general Yuan, Ziwen (Cao Zhang) Gongzi has already led the cavalry to ambush north of Fancheng, and I can hear the report of the scouts, Zijian (Cao Zhi) Gongzi transferred Runan infantry to ambush east of Fancheng, Zihuan Gongzi is a little later, he and General Gao Ran, with the garrison on the outskirts of Xudu has just set off, and it should be able to reach the west of the city at noon tomorrow..."

Speaking of this, Zhao Yan paused.

Fang Cai continued to analyze: "If Guan Yu goes to attack Fancheng, and General Wen Yuan leads that invincible Bingzhou army to block the south of Fancheng, then Guan Yunchang... Unless there are also 'Lu' horses, otherwise... I'm afraid of dying, but I can't jump this Tanxi Lake! ”

Hearing this, Zhang Liao waved his hand, "The red rabbit horse under Yun Chang is given by the prime minister, and it is not inferior to Lu Ma there!" ”

"But... At the beginning, Sun Quan invaded Hefei with the strength of the country, and he was the prime minister's divine calculation, and a piece of paper "thieves arrived, Naifai" helped Zhang to become famous in the world and defeated 100,000 thieves! If Yun Chang comes this time, the prime minister will also lay an ambush on all sides, even if there is a 'Lu Ma' and a 'Red Rabbit Horse'? He can't jump out unless he has wings! ”

"And if this battle can severely damage the Guan family's army, if Yun Chang can be captured, then the situation in Jingzhou will be completely reversed, and Jingzhou's offense and defense will be completely changed!"

This...

Zhao Yan was not as optimistic as Zhang Liao, his eyebrows were always condensed, and he sighed.

"Liu Biaozhu Huyingtai attracted eagles, but I don't know, General Wenyuan can attract Guan Yu and the Guan family army when he stands on this Huying platform, I am not afraid that they will attack in a big way, I am afraid that this Guan Yu and the Guan family army will not come!"

"Other than that... I'm also afraid that he doesn't stick to common sense and doesn't take Fancheng, but takes Xiangyang... The ambush of those sons was in vain. ”

"He'll definitely come! will also attack Fancheng. Zhang Liao's tone was resolute.

Zhao Yan hurriedly asked, "Why?" ”

"Hehe..."Zhang Liao smiled lightly: "Because the news of the prime minister's southward 'rush' is bound to come out... There is not much time left for him Yun Chang, how proud Yun Chang is, he will definitely take Fancheng! In this way, Xiangyang is forced into a desperate situation! ”

Hiss...

Zhao Yan's eyes rolled, because Cao Cao was mentioned, Zhao Yan inevitably asked more: "The lower officials are still wondering, this prime minister is coming back so quickly!" ”

"You can't be too fast." Zhang Liao showed a smile that saw through everything, and he sighed: "The prime minister is extraordinary, and the prime minister's vision... In the end, we can't compare, we can't compare! ”

…

…

In Hanzhong, Yangping Pass at night is particularly cold and lonely.

Standing in Yangping Pass across the Jialing River to the northeast, a mountain rises abruptly, about 100 meters high, the top of the mountain is flat, the momentum is majestic, the shape is like a bucket, this is the "Zilong Mountain" of later generations!

That is, this "Zilong Mountain", standing on the top of the mountain, can overlook the whole pass, mountains, rivers, houses, roads and forests in the distance.

Zhang He and Xu Huang, who stayed in Hanzhong, are now being led to this mountain by the Tiger Ben army.

In fact, the two of them were also suspicious, for fear that these tiger soldiers were bought by Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang... lure them out of the customs, and even send swords and axes to ambush in this nameless mountain.

Therefore, we are vigilant and hesitant again and again.

And when the Tiger Ben soldier showed the "Cao Cao token", the two of them dispelled all their doubts and quickly followed the Tiger Ben soldier into the nameless mountain.

Bypassed a side of the trail... There are many huge caves in the mountains.

Zhang He had heard that there were many followers of the Wudoumi Sect... It is in these caves that I practiced and sacrificed, and when I look at it today, the caves full of mountains... Good is spectacular.

"Two generals, please—"

With the Tiger Ben soldiers leading the way, Zhang He and Xu Huang were led into a stone cave.

The two of them walked into the hole, but the more they walked, the darker it became.

Finally, at the end of the cave, there was a cluster of torches, and through the torches, a huge shadow could be seen.

The shadow was lying on a futon in the cave, snoring slightly.

Even if it is just a shadow, he can feel the majesty and domineering, as if his chest is lying together, and there is a kind of supreme power surrounding his body, so that even if it is a shadow, he does not dare to look at him directly!

"Ahh

Suddenly, the man sneezed.

It was a sneeze that made the man's majestic, muscular voice resound through the stone cave, echoing for a long time.

Looking at Zhang He and Xu Huang again, after hearing this "sneeze", their eyes widened in an instant... Looking at the huge figure in disbelief.

At this moment, it seemed that this sleeping man, he woke up and noticed Zhang He and Xu Huang.

The low, deep voice followed.

- "You're coming! ”

With just these four words, with a "snap", Zhang He and Xu Huang knelt together, and the two hurriedly arched their hands and chanted two words in that incredible tone.

- "Prime Minister! ”

- "Prime Minister! ”

That's right, what appeared in front of the two of them was the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, and it was also the Duke of Wei - Cao Cao.

And with the determination that the person in front of him was Prime Minister Cao Cheng.

Zhang He and Xu Huang couldn't help but have the same question.

- "Didn't Prime Minister Cao Cheng rush to Xiangfan's aid?"

- "Now here he is, in that daytime, when he went south, who was in the five carriages?"

…
