The Three Kingdoms

Liu Biao rubbed his temples, sighed, looked at Kuai Liang, and asked, "Zirou, what do you mean?"

"Your Majesty, I don't care about this matter. For the current plan, even if you suffer a little loss, you must form an alliance with Wu State in advance to dispel Wu's anger!" Kuai Liang said.

"What you said is reasonable, I will leave this matter to you!" Liu Mian said with a helpless expression.

"No!" Kuai Liang nodded with a sharp light in his eyes.

Nanyang, Wancheng, the outskirts, Wei Jun camps in the rolling trees.

Zhang Xiu had only tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and under the attack of Wei's elite soldiers, he lost three battles and three defeats. In less than a few days, he drove straight in and approached the city.

"Your Majesty!"

In the large tent of the Chinese army, Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao with an obviously gloomy expression, and said, "News came from Jingzhou that Sun Quan escaped another disaster!"

"No surprises!"

Cao Cao sat cross-legged in the first place, with a flat smile on the corner of his mouth, and said: "If Sun Zhongmou is so easy to kill, he is not worthy of being listed as a confidant enemy by a certain family. In the past, in the East China Sea, a certain family had the opportunity to kill him. , didn’t you let him run away in the end?”

Sun Quan is more dangerous in Cao Cao's mind than the current king of Wu, Sun Jian.

"Liu Xuande disappointed me so much. Fortunately, my family let the ghost soldiers help them. For this reason, the ghost soldiers have let the Jin Yiwei pull out several strongholds!"

Guo Jia said with a sigh.

"Ha ha!"

Cao Cao smiled and said, "If you expect a bereaved dog to kill Sun Zhongmou, your hopes are too high!"

"Yes!" Guo Jia nodded.

"Feng Xiao, let's forget about Jingzhou. You should focus on Wancheng!" Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and said, "How to make Zhang Xiu surrender without a fight is your top priority. This city, In addition to the tens of thousands of elite Xiliang soldiers in Zhang Xiu's hands, I don't want to fight!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty!"

A sharp light flashed across Guo Jia's eyes, and he said confidently: "Within a month, Zhang Xiu will surrender!"

[Text Chapter 325 Journey to Jingzhou Eighth]

Nanyang County, Jiyang County.

This small county town connects Wancheng and Xinye. It was established in the seventh year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty. It is located in the southeast of Wancheng. It is named Jiyang because it is located in the east of Jishui.

Liu Bei received Liu Biao's order and led [-] soldiers of the Chu army to the north to Nanyang, where he camped and waited for the battle in Wancheng.

Now Wancheng has gathered tens of thousands of elite troops from Nanyang Kingdom and Wei Kingdom, and they are facing each other heavily. He has no courage to step in with such a force in his hand.

Because whether it is the Xiliang soldiers under Zhang Xiu's command or the Wei army led by Cao Cao, they can easily crush his 2-plus troops. In his mind, it is best to wait until these two people fight to death. Then he jumped out, took advantage of the fisherman's advantage, and seized Nanyang in one fell swoop, making it his shelter.

It's a pity that he was doing his calculations well, but he couldn't wait for the news of the two sides fighting. The soldiers and horses of the two sides just confronted each other, which made him more uneasy.

On this day, Liu Bei's heart became even more depressed, and he was even furious, and his face showed a gloomy and ice-like aura.

"Third brother, I'm sorry for you!"

In the camp of the Chu army, along the Jishui River, there are many military tents stretching for several miles. In the spacious Chinese army tent, Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei's tragic situation with tears in his eyes, and held Zhang Fei's hand with both hands. , a little choked up.

The big man Zhang Fei stood in front of Liu Bei, his head was wrapped with gauze like a rice dumpling by the doctor, his left face was completely disfigured under Wang Yue's sword, leaving a deep scar that could not be erased. The important thing is that his left eye was also blinded by this sword.

In other words, he became one-eyed.

"Brother, it's just an eye, it's not enough!"

Zhang Fei didn't care at all, only one eye was shining fiercely, and he said bitterly: "It's just a pity, brother, at the last moment, a Wang Yue was killed out of nowhere, which resulted in a certain family not being able to take the head of the little thief Sun Zhongmou." Cut it off!"

"Wang Yue?"

In the big tent, everyone heard the words, and their eyes sank slightly. This former swordsman in the knight-errant world, the swordsmanship instructor of the last generation of emperors in the Han Dynasty, was well known among them.

This person's martial arts are definitely not inferior to any super fierce general. There are even rumors that this person's swordsmanship can rival Lu Bu, the world's number one general, without defeat.

"I didn't expect Sun Zhongmou to have such a master by his side!" Liu Bei gritted his teeth, his eyes darkened.

"Brother, it's just a mere Wang Yue, what's the point? Since he hurt the third brother, someone should go to Xiangyang himself, take his head, and then kill the life of the little thief Sun Zhongmou!" Danfeng's eyes burst out with a cold murderous aura, his whole body was full of gangster aura, his beard stood on his head, and his evil aura was soaring to the sky.

"Yun Chang, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run!"

Liu Bei took a deep breath and shook his head. Although he was also very angry in his heart, although he also wanted to lead troops to kill Sun Quan and Wang Yue directly, but his reason as a generation of heroes was still there.

Now the most important thing for them is not to take revenge, but to save their lives.

If the assassination of Sun Quan failed this time, Liu Biao must be able to guess that he did it. If he could not give Liu Biao a satisfactory answer, he would be suspicious of Liu Biao, and even Liu Biao would directly send troops to destroy him.

Liu Bei paced back and forth in the tent, pondered for a moment, waved his hands, and said to Guan Yu, "Sun Quan's son will be killed sooner or later, but now he is in Xiangyang, he must be heavily guarded by soldiers, there is no need to rush at this moment. Now that my brother is leading troops outside, if he is involved in this matter, he will definitely be suspected by the king of Chu, so we should be careful!"

"My lord, once Liu Biao becomes suspicious, he will definitely not tolerate you. We need to make plans early!" Zhuge Liang put on his robe, fanned his feather fan, squinted his eyes, and sighed.

He had calculated thousands of times, and Wang Yue, who was one of the few, caused this operation to fall short.

If Sun Quan died, Wu and Chu would inevitably go to war. Even if Liu Biao guessed that it was Liu Bei who attacked Wu, he could only rely on Liu Bei to resist Wu's attack. That was Liu Bei's chance to seize Chu.

But now that Sun Quan has survived, Chu and Wu will inevitably form an alliance. At that time, Liu Biao will inevitably settle accounts after the autumn. Although Liu Biao has no ambitions, great ambitions, and a personality that emphasizes literature over martial arts, as the king of Chu, Controlling millions of soldiers and civilians in Jingzhou, one overlord, hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers under his command, it is more than enough to crush them to death.

"My lord, the envoy from Xiangyang, the king wants to summon you, so he immediately led his troops back to Jingzhou, and then stationed in Xinye, and asked you to go to Xiangyang immediately!" At this time, a personal guard walked into the camp and reported respectfully.

"So fast?"

Everyone's complexion changed slightly when they heard the words, this was the prelude to Liu Biao's plan to ask the teacher for his crimes.

"Go down!" Liu Bei waved his hands blankly.

"promise!"

"Go back to Xiangyang?" Liu Bei sighed slightly, a little unwilling, but if he didn't go back, he would face Liu Biao's attack.

"My lord, you must not go to Xiangyang!" Chen Deng hurriedly cupped his hands.

"Brother, we can't let you take risks. If Liu Biao comes to attack him, just kill him!"

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu said in unison.

"Kong Ming, what is the best plan for the present?" Liu Bei pondered for a while, looked at each of the civil and military men under his command, and finally bowed to Zhuge Liang, and asked sincerely.

"Someone has a strategy, and it's justifiable to let the lord stay in Xinye!"

Zhuge Liang's face was calm, without the slightest panic, a slight arc was drawn at the corner of his mouth, he cupped his hands towards Liu Bei, and said softly: "As the saying goes, the general is out, and the military orders are not accepted. If the lord wants to stay in Xinye, he must A legitimate reason."
