Jingzhou, Nanjun, west of Gong'an City.

Here, it was originally the "Mrs. Sun" city specially established by Liu Bei for Sun Shangxiang.

Nominally, she and her female soldiers were placed here, but in fact they were separated as husband and wife.

The reason for this...

First of all, it's that this Sun Xiaomei can't control it, and secondly... Liu Bei was afraid.

Why are you afraid? The female soldiers of Soochow, or the maidservants... But it's notorious.

Of course, Liu Bei only heard about it.

In fact, if according to the original trajectory of history, Sun Quan's cousin Sun Yi defected to the Wei State and was named the general of the chariot cavalry, and the Marquis of Wu... But in the third year of the Wei Kingdom, he was killed by the maid who was close to him and brought from Eastern Wu!

A few months before Sun Quan's death, he was already sick in bed, and his wife Empress Pan asked everywhere about the story of "Empress Lu listened to politics", and then Empress Pan was strangled to death by the maid of Eastern Wu.

There is also Sun Quan's third brother Sun Yi was assassinated, and his wife planned to deceive the enemy, and then let Sun Yi's subordinates go up with the maidservant. The handmaid is to be involved.

With these in mind...

When Sun Quan married Sun Shangxiang to Liu Bei, he brought a hundred sword-wielding maidservants, which is a bit interesting.

What the hell is going on? The benevolent see the benevolent, the wise see the wise!

This is also why, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms: The True Biography of the Law" mentions that Liu Bei "is afraid that Mrs. Sun will change under her elbow and armpit..."

What is called "life changes under the elbow and armpit", that is, Sun Xiaomei is sitting... Liu Bei was lying down, and suddenly the maid appeared and strangled Liu Bei to death!

Who can not be afraid?

This is also the origin of the city of "Lady Sun".

And this "Lady Sun City" is a little strange in Guan Lin's opinion...

Because, according to the original timeline, Mrs. Sun did not enter Chengdu and ran back to Jiangdong directly from Mrs. Sun City, Guan Lin didn't know if it was the appearance of his butterfly that flapped his wings and affected the course of this history.

Of course, it doesn't matter ...

The important thing is that the now abandoned Lady Sun City has become a place for Fu Shiren to train his troops, and it has become a battlefield where he can finally stand up and become Liu Bei's fourth brother in the true sense!

He trains his troops... Never fool!

Similarly, most of Fu Shiren's soldiers have followed Liu Bei to the north and south over the years, and they are a team that is extremely capable of fighting!

It's just that today, this training is being practiced, and suddenly... Mi Fang is here!

Having said that, since the last time they met Guan Lin in Jiangling City, it has only been a few days, and Mi Fang is here again? This made Fu Shiren puzzled.

"How?" Fu Shiren saw Mi Fang and asked suspiciously: "Is the third brother worried about the purchase of materials on that list?" Alas, how many times have I told you, we have been reselling arms for so many years, and there are more ways to do it, as long as there is money and food, everything can be done! But aren't you building a new city in Gangneung City? The third brother's battle plan... Wasn't it a month later? ”

With Fu Shiren's words...

Mi Fang, who was sweating profusely, wiped the beads of sweat on her forehead, just... He also came quickly along the way, and he was dusty, at least he had a lot of worries.

He gasped and said, "The third brother is still not worried about our side, saying that he will come to see it in the next few days, and see how our combat power is?" Can you handle the burden of the siege? As soon as I heard this, where did I still have the heart to build a city... I just took the first step and brought these parts of mine with me, and I will inform you... However, by the way... A batch of ordnance for the third brother? ”

"What ordnance?" As soon as he heard about the ordnance, Fu Shiren was interested, after all... The "repeating crossbow", "wooden ox flowing horse" and "partial van" produced by the water villa are famous...

If his Fu Shiren's soldiers and horses can be equipped with these, it will be tantamount to adding wings to the tiger, and the battle plan in a month will not have a few more chances of victory?

"The ordnance is good, the third brother is still thinking about the eldest brother... Come, let me try this batch of weapons of the third brother first, how about it to test the power? ”

In Fu Shiren's long-looking eyes, Mi Fang brought not a repeater, not a side car, not a wooden ox and a horse... It's the "Eight Bull Crossbow" and the "Thunderbolt Ten Bull Crossbow"...

The former has a range of more than eight hundred paces, and a crossbow bolt is enough to penetrate the city walls ...

The latter was improved by Liu Ye, together with the integration with the Thunderbolt... The range is more than three hundred paces, but the crossbow bolts are not shot, but thrown, from top to bottom ... Smashing into the ground, the range explodes... A true crack in the sense of the word!

These ordnance were all brilliant in the previous battlefield of Jiming Mountain in Jiangxia!

"Whoosh-"

With the sound of splitting the sky and cracking stones, a powerful crossbow burst out and sank heavily into the stone steps.

This is the crossbow of the Eight Ox Crossbow, which is submerged into the stone steps in the mountain wall...

This astonishing destructive power made Fu Shiren stunned, and after only a short gap, Fu Shiren suddenly realized something.

"I see... The third brother means that when besieging a city, you can... You can rely on this..."

Really...

With Fu Shiren's reply, Mi Fang nodded heavily and said with emotion: "That's right... Guan Yunchang led tens of thousands of Guan family sergeants, and the reason why he couldn't capture Xiangfan was because he used a ladder and a rushing car, what a thing... There's our eight-ox crossbow, along with the crossbow bolts that shoot into the city wall... And the brethren climbed up to the tower, and what a ladder do you want? ”

Mi Fang's words completely made Fu Shiren excited, and he couldn't help muttering.

"The original city, can still be attacked like this! Shoot and shoot and take down! ”

For a moment, Fu Shiren's keen sense of smell suddenly realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime and once-in-a-century event... He Fu Shiren's chance to stand up!

It's on fire...

Isn't that just a fire!

"Hurry, hurry, and that thunderbolt... This... How do you use this thing? ”

There was no moment when he was more excited than Fu Shiren at this time, he was really burning from the inside out...

He was desperate for the battlefield in a month's time, so hurry up!

…

…

Fancheng, within the government office.

Pound and his four sons all knelt on one knee.

In front of them, Cao Ren was reciting the edict sent by Cao Cao's fast horse... That is, the canonization of Pound and his four sons.

"The Prime Minister's edict, Pang De repelled Guan Yu, defeated the Jing army, and guarded Xiangfan, with outstanding meritorious deeds and indispensable contributions... Pound is hereby crowned as the general of Zhennan, and he eats 2,000 ...... The general is hereby recruited 30,000 soldiers in the north, and all of them will be handed over to General Pang De for coordination! In addition, Pang Hui, Pang Feng, Pang Long, and Pang Hu, the sons of Pang De, were the marquis of Guannei, and there were 100 households in each of the provinces... All of them served under General Zhennan! ”

"The last general, Prime Minister Xie Cao!"

As Cao Ren read out Cao Cao's edict, Pang De thanked him first, and his voice was loud.

The four sons also gave their thanks.

Cao Ren slowly handed over the handwritten edict, the seal ribbon, and the talismans of the 30,000 recruits to Pang De, and said with emotion: "The prime minister sealed it like this, and handed over all the 30,000 recruits to Ling Ming, which shows the trust of the prime minister... Speaking of which, Gongming and I have both recovered from a serious illness, and now this Xiangfan Zhi'an is tied to the hands of General Pang! ”

"General rest assured..."Pang De patted his chest and promised, "When I led my troops to help Xiangfan, I ordered my subordinates to carry a sarcophagus, as long as I, Pang De, did not fall into this sarcophagus and was not buried deep in the ground, then Xiangfan would be stable, and he Guan Yu would not be able to cross the thunder pool!" I'm Pang De here, Xiangfan is here! As for these 30,000 recruits, give me a month, and I will be able to train them into a legion that can fight tough battles! ”

Pound's words are true...

Speaking of which, his background is not high, and his current identity and status depend on his own skills.

And in the Guanzhong area, there are many warlords, and they are fighting every day, and there is never a so-called security...

Often after a night of sleep, I don't know if my head is still there when I wake up?

And out of this bloody plain... Pound is a ruthless man, but also a tough guy, he is the most fearless and least afraid of death in Cao Ying today!

"Okay..."

Xu Huang, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Speaking of which, because of the repulsion of Guan Yu, he was also crowned by one level, and now he is still one level higher than Pang De!

Whereas... Thinking that now Xiangfan has the "Heavenly General" Cao Ren, the "White Horse General" Pang De, plus him Xu Huang... In addition, Guan Yu was shot by an arrow, the Guan family army was defeated, and the army's morale was scattered...

At this time, from the bottom of his heart, Xu Huang felt that it was stable, and the situation in Xiangfan had finally turned over, as stable as Mount Tai!

Pang De spoke at the right time, "Now General Gongming guards Xiangyang, General Zixiao guards Fancheng, and I take my four sons to garrison south of Xiangyang. The three of us are each other's horns, looking at each other across the river, and helping each other... The situation in Xiangfan is foolproof! ”

Pound's words made Cao Ren laugh heartily: "Hahahaha... I just like to listen to you Pang Lingming! Pang Lingming's words are as refreshing as ever! ”

That's when ...

"Newspaper—"

A scout quickly broke into the public hall here, and when he saw the three generals, he hurriedly knelt down on one knee and gave his hand to report.

"Report to the generals, there is an urgent message from the fine work that has been mixed into Jiangling City, Guan Yu has been hit by an arrow... It didn't get better for a few days, but yesterday he suddenly had a high fever that didn't go away, and he forcibly propped himself up in the barracks and threatened to hand over the Guan family army to Guan Jia Shiro, and Guan Jia Shiro Guan Lin inherited his ambition and recovered the Central Plains..."

"But before he finished speaking, he fainted in the military camp, and he heard that he fainted from then on, and the miracle doctor Zhang Zhongjing also mentioned that Guan Yu was hanging on his last breath, and even told Guan Yu's family to prepare for the future in advance!"

As soon as this statement came out...

Cao Ren and Xu Huang's eyes widened at the same time, and they looked at each other.

It seems that the same words come to mind from the heart and from the heart.

- "Guan Yu is really... Really fainted? Really hanging on your last breath? Be... Is that the poisoned arrow?'

Even more excited was Pound...

"Hahahaha..."

Hearing Guan Yu's tragic situation, Pang De laughed heartily and said, "I'll just say that he Guan Yu can't survive under that arrow... Sure enough..."

Pound said with a sigh of emotion while brushing his beard: "There are two kinds of poison quenched on my arrow, one of which is aconite, although this is not fatal, but it can make him Guan Yu in a trance and powerless... The body is tired, and the second is the golden juice, and under the golden juice... Guan Yu was shot by an arrow, and the gold juice seeped into his body, even the gods couldn't save him... Hahaha..."

For a while, Pound's laughter was even more rampant.

In fact, he was not the only one who quenched the "aconitum juice" and "gold juice" on the arrows, but also the weapons of his five thousand cavalry were quenched with gold juice.

He Pound led the troops... He has never come to mix credit, every time he fights, he wants to take people's lives!

is still the same sentence, from Guanzhong and other places where warlords are numerous, none of them are good stubble.

There's not a single one who isn't ruthless...

In that kind of place... In order to win, it is possible to use all conceivable means! It is ruthless that can be done to the extreme. Including open guns and hidden arrows, including poison... Even women!

This is also why, Ma Chao, one of the warlords in Guanzhong, would abandon Ma Teng and join forces with Han Sui to rebel...

Put your father and brother in danger.

This is why he was able to shout the sentence to Han Sui: "Today Chao abandons his father, takes the general as his father, and the general should also abandon his son, and takes Chao as his son" These completely contradictory words.

This kind of incident in the Central Plains, in the Han Dynasty, who ruled the world with "filial piety", seems to be a great rebellion...

Available in "Guanzhong"...

There is nothing else to talk about there, only two words - survival!

Live, then crawl out of the pile of dead and stand on top ... That's everything there!

That's why Pound can be ruthless... The reason why you can shoot Guan Yu with such disgraceful means!

It's just that Pang De is laughing here, laughing wantonly, but Xu Huang and Cao Ren don't have any expressions.

Cao Ren looked at the horse and asked, "What else did you find out?" ”

Tanma reported truthfully: "Also, an urgent message has been sent to Shuzhong in the direction of Jingzhou, most of which is to report to Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang... Today's situation in Jingzhou, in addition to... It seems that Guan Yu's condition has worsened because of Guan Jiashiro's medicine, so even if Guan Yu warns the three armies and lets Guan Lin inherit his soldiers and horses, but... There are still two voices in the Guan family's army. ”

"Which two voices?" Cao Ren became curious.

"One is to support Guan Lin, the other is that Guan Lin is too young, and because his medicine has worsened Guan Yu's condition, he does not support him, and what is 'The second general is sick, not dead, and it is not Guan Lin's turn to call the shots!' ”

Not...

Hearing this, Xu Huang and Cao Ren still kept quiet, looking at each other, and there was a little more suspicion in their eyes.

As for Pound, laugh as always ...

The smile is extraordinarily bright.

Speaking of which, Pang De is the chief general under Ma Chao.

In Jingzhou, the only one who can make him jealous is Guan Yu, except for Guan Yu, what Guan Yunqi will never be in Pang De's eyes!

Not even a great reputation!

This is because, in the world of experience of the "Guanzhong people"... If you don't know martial arts, it's about the same as... One waste, one waste firewood!

It's not a big wave!

Immediately, Pang De bowed his hand to Cao Ren, "Now that Guan Yu is dying, the morale of the Guan family army is low, and he refuses to accept this Guan Lin, this is a godsend, and the last general will ask to bring his troops and horses to conquer Nanjun..."

Pound's proposal was immediately rejected by Cao Ren.

"The edict sent by the prime minister mentioned that as long as Xiangfan is guarded, it will be a great achievement, Nanjun... Don't panic and plot! ”

With Cao Ren's words...

Xu Huang also said: "General Pang has to think twice, in case... What about this Guan Yu's deception? What if he cheated to death? ”

Because Cao Ren and Xu Huang had just used the method of stunting and dwindling death to win Guan Yu's careless enemy, they were "lucky" to win a big victory, so... It was difficult for them not to think in this direction as well.

- "Could this be Guan Yu's plan?" A plan to induce our army to be careless?'

Especially Cao Ren...

He has suffered too much of this kind of "cheating death".

Originally... If it weren't for Zhou Yu's death, how could he Cao Ren lose Nanjun?

So... Cao Ren was already cautious, and it was hard for him to believe... Not something you saw with your own eyes!

"General Zixiao and General Gongming are still too careful!" Pound showed a little disdain...

Of course, because of his identity, he didn't say anything more.

Cao Ren reminded: "In today's situation, we still can't attack rashly, we still have to raise our spirits, strengthen our garrison, and send more meticulous work and exploration horses!" Prevent a surprise attack by enemy troops! Furthermore... Tell those eyes that you must find out Guan Yu's true state... Is he really dizzy? Still pretending to be dizzy! ”

Following Cao Ren's instructions, the tanma said yes and left immediately...

Xu Huang also received the order and planned to return to Xiangyang.

It's Pang De, he said that he would receive his life, but in his heart, he felt that Cao Ren and Xu Huang were making a big fuss, and some were too cowardly!

He walked out of the office with his four sons...

When he turned over and got on his horse, the eldest son Pang Hui asked, "Such a good opportunity, the two generals actually prevented my father from going south... When the child listens, he just thinks it's a pity! ”

The second son, Pang Feng, added: "Could it be that the two generals are jealous of their father's merits and are unwilling to give this credit to their fathers!" ”

"Whew..."

The words of the two sons made Pang De let out a long breath of turbidity, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "General Zixiao and General Gongming are not going to compete with their father, but... The people of the Central Plains are still angry! Afraid of wolves in the front, afraid of tigers in the back, such courage... How do you compare with our Guanzhong people? ”

"yes"... The eldest son, Pang Hui, nodded and groaned: "What my father said is that the child is also served, and Guan Yu is sick like this, but the two generals are still afraid of him, does the child really not know that this Guan Yu is so powerful?" ”

No wonder Pang would say that, they haven't been in contact with Guan Yu... Even Liu Bei and Zhang Fei have never been in contact.

They don't understand ... Why has Liu Bei, who has been on the run for half his life, and finally deceived Liu Bei, who has been in a corner of the land by luck, Guan Yu, who is sitting in Jingzhou, can make the entire Great Wei so jealous!

This is not a newborn calf that is not afraid of tigers...

It's really not understood.

The ignorant are fearless!

Call...

Pound exhaled again, "Let's just talk about this between father and son..."Pound reminded: "If you are an outsider, don't mention it again... Now, first do what General Zixiao instructed, and the prime minister didn't also say that he should guard Xiangfan... No matter how big an official he is, he is willing to give it to us! ”

Pound blurted out the last sentence.

With the neighing of a war horse with the sound of "Gotta got...".

Pound and his four sons rode fast horses... Five people and five horses are gone!

In their opinion, the Guanzhong people have too much advantage in dealing with these Central Plains people, and their camp is also impregnable!

…

…

This is the third day that Cao Zhi has interrogated Sima Yi.

Cao Zhi doesn't seem to show mercy...

He tortured Sima Yi, and now, Sima Yi's clothes are still stained red with blood because of the whipping...

This time, he was sleepy because of his serious injuries, but he woke him up by the sound of the lock.

The familiar voice came out again, "Please pass through the hall..."

Hearing this, Sima Yi slowly got up, and he muttered: "I have just received a heavy sentence, even if the two tortures of the Great Wei are separated by twenty days?" There is a reason that only one day has passed, and then it will pass the hall! ”

"It's here, let's be honest and avoid the pain of flesh and skin!" The jailer's voice was unkind.

Sima Yi sighed deeply and came to the court with shackles.

Cao Zhi had been waiting for him here for a long time.

Seeing Sima Yi, he asked: "Jun Sima, I don't want to ask you today, I just want to ask, when you went to Jiaozhou and saw that Lu Xun, was it because you were deaf and blind, and you were so stupid that you couldn't see through his plan to go north?" Or is it in the same boat ... Help it go north! ”

This is an unusually scathing question, to put it simply, to ask you... Is it incompetence, or disloyalty.

No matter what Sima Yi answers, it can be used as a crime and a handle...

Sima Yi was slightly startled, but his reaction speed was extremely fast, and he said slowly, "Why is Zijian Gongzi's words so ignorant? When did Zijian Gongzi become like this, a person who lives the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain? ”

It's like...

Sima Yi has something to say!
