Chapter 265 Jealousy
But Zhao Yun still suppressed the anger in his heart, because he knew that the military order was like a mountain, and the lord must also hope that he would obey Chen Dao's command, so as to ensure that he could quickly establish his prestige in the army.
He turned his head and waved his hands, shouting loudly: "Quicken up, make sure to arrive before dark."

The marching speed of the army was faster than Chen Dao expected. In the evening, the soldiers had already set up camp fifty miles away from Wancheng.

At night, the soldiers who had already fallen asleep in Wancheng were awakened by the sound of drumming outside the city. It was the soldiers sent by Chen Dao to call out in the middle of the night.

The bursts of drums made the soldiers in the city complain and angry, and they all asked to open the city gates and go out to fight.

The general guarding the city of Wancheng is a general under Cao Ren's account, named Niu Jin, in line with the duties of the general guarding the city, and because the soldiers were exhausted during the overnight journey, he refused the request to fight and drove the soldiers away Let them go to rest one after another.

On the second day, the familiar thing happened again. Early in the morning, the drums outside the city continued to beating. The soldiers inside the city couldn't bear the arrogance of the defenders outside, and they called for battle out of the city.

Niu Jin walked up to the gate of the city and saw the orderly troops outside the city beating gongs and drums, it was so lively!

He looked up at the sky, the sun was scorching like fire, and he had a plan.

He shouted to all the soldiers in the city: "Brothers, you must have hated the twittering flies in your heart for a long time! Don't be in a hurry, get your spirits up, and open the city gate after noon , I will lead you all to kill and destroy the group of beasts outside!"

"Good! Good! Good!" The soldiers shouted in agreement.

At three poles in the sun, Niu Jin led the soldiers to gather at the gate of the city. The gate slowly opened. Niu Jin raised his weapon and shouted loudly: "Brothers, follow me out of the city and destroy them! Kill!"

The soldiers shouted one after another, followed Niu Jin's horse and killed them.

After Liu Bei's soldiers outside the city saw Niu Jin's army rushing out, the front army changed into the rear army and quickly began to retreat. Niu Jin's army followed closely behind, chasing after him.

After all the soldiers left, Liu Bei's army, which had been ambushed in advance outside the city gate, entered the city mightily and captured Wancheng.

Niu Jin, who was catching up, felt something was wrong in his heart. If he wanted to attack the city, the soldiers in front of him seemed not enough.

He immediately shouted: "It's broken, I have fallen into a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain, retreat quickly."

After Niu Jin hurriedly returned to the completion, the flag on the city had already changed to Liu, and Chen Dao stood on the top of the city, ordering all the soldiers to draw their bows and arrows, without leaving any reaction time, the rain of arrows rushed straight Shooting directly at the army outside the city, Niu Jin's army suffered numerous casualties.

He shouted in the chaos: "Retreat! Retreat!"

In the forest outside the city, Zhao Yun's defenders who had been ambushing for a long time fought out bravely. The retreating soldiers didn't react at all, and their heads fell to the ground one by one.

The troops that had just been chased by Niu Jin's troops also chose to retreat. Three groups of people surrounded Niu Jin's troops. Under the cover of his own soldiers, Niu Jin escaped from the encirclement and fled towards Fancheng.

Liu Bei won the first battle very easily, and successfully laid down his first step in expanding the territory in Nanyang City!And Chen Dao also showed his great military talent by virtue of this battle, and gained a firm foothold in the army.
The battle of Wancheng was a good start. Liu Bei was very happy and held a celebration banquet for Chen Dao himself. With Liu Bei's words, the soldiers in the army would be more convinced of Chen Dao.
But in the first battle, there was one person who seemed very unhappy, that is Zhao Yun, originally a small town like Wancheng should be handed over to him to attack the city, but now it's a good thing, Chen Dao won the first victory.
What annoyed Zhao Yun the most was that Chen Dao's strategy was really good. Our army did not suffer too many casualties. On the contrary, the Niujin troops in the city were almost wiped out. They fought a beautiful battle with minimal losses. Zhao Yun asked himself , is still far from being able to do this.
At this moment, he himself didn't realize that a seed called jealousy was slowly sprouting in his heart. He never thought that he would have such an emotion one day, but he had to admit that he was very impressed by Chen Dao's success. very dissatisfied.
Jealousy makes people blind, Zhao Yun's eyes have been blinded, what he will do next will not lead to such a result.
Speaking of information, Zhao Yun also had a piece of information in his heart. He wanted to tell it when he was in Liu Bei's study, but Liu Bei's attitude at that time made him very uncomfortable, so this piece of information was hidden in his heart and became Got a secret.
But Chen Dao's performance today made him feel a deep sense of crisis. He decided to tell Liu Bei this secret, so that he could remember his status and role in his heart.
After the celebration banquet, Zhao Yun came to Liu Bei's room alone and told her the secret he kept in his heart.
"My lord, when I returned to Xuchang through Luoyang City, I heard that Han Yang led his army to Weixing County, but for some reason, they only dispersed Zhang Lu's remnant army, and instead of continuing to pursue, they withdrew. Weixing County."

"The current Weixing County has no one to garrison, it is an empty city. My lord can take it as my own, and order a general to lead the troops to garrison it, as our army's next piece of territory."

After hearing this, Liu Bei looked at him with a smile, and said, "I never thought that Zilong had obtained such a huge amount of information for our army. I'm really gratified. Since you brought up this information, Zilong, then you can go to Weixing County." take."

"Just now you said that Weixing County is an empty city. Three thousand sergeants must be enough. Of course, if Zilong thinks it is not enough, you can add more."

"No, no, my lord, three thousand soldiers are enough, please wait for Zilong's good news, my lord."

After finishing speaking, he bent down and cupped his hands, then turned and left Liu Bei's room.
Liu Bei looked at Zhao Yun's leaving back, feeling unspeakably uncomfortable in his heart, Zilong, Zilong, you finally showed your fox tail, and seeing Chen Dao's great achievements, that's why he made the real deal with Han Yang Tell me the lord.
Wei Xingjun! Do you think I'm a fool? With such a big piece of land, Han Yang will choose to give it up or not, and then give it to me?
Zilong, Zilong, I didn't expect you to really have two minds. Anyway, since you have this idea, I won't force you. I just hope that you won't do anything harmful to our army in the future.
Thinking of the friendship between you and me over the years, I will let you spend a good old age.
As for Han Yang, Liu Bei's eyes were full of anger, he took away my favorite tiger general, so in the future, he must die!
