Thank you ___ for the reward. At the same time, I wish the friends who support this book. The Year of the Dragon is like Liu Feng, and the future is boundless.
——————
Liu Feng led his 800 soldiers to retreat slowly and went to camp 15 miles north of Linxiang City.
At dusk, Ma Yu stepped into the account and interrupted Liu Feng's book.
"You came just in time. Your literary talent is better than mine. Can you help me see how this persuasion letter is written?" Liu Feng stopped writing and handed half of the silk book to Ma Qian.
Ma Zhen took his hand, looked at it a few times, and his face suddenly changed. He was shocked and said, "Son, what do you mean?"
"Don't make such a fuss." Liu Feng smiled indifferently, so he said what he promised when he met Huang Zhong in Linxiang City in the morning.
Ma Jian's flat forehead condensed a deep line, and his face was grimly advised, "What's the matter with this, Grand Prince? We are already using tricks. Even if the Grand Prince agrees to Huang Hansheng, how can he take it seriously?"
Of course, Liu Feng is not so naive. If it had been before, of course, he would not have written this letter foolishly, but now it is different. The whole big plan is proceeding according to his idea. Soon he will openly break with Liu Bei. This letter seems to be to make trouble for himself, but in fact it is Liu Feng is paving the way for the next step.
But in the face of Ma Jian's question, Liu Feng must give him a reasonable explanation. Fortunately, he has already brewed an excuse.
"Huang Hansheng is a usable talent. I have the intention to surrender him, but this person's surname is strong and straightforward. If he knows that the big call I said before the battle is a lie to him, even if he finally has to surrender, he will be unconvinced, so I have to write this letter."
Liu Feng's purpose is not to convince him of Liu Bei, but to let him obey himself. Naturally, this cannot be made clear to Ma Yu for the time being.
Ma Yu had nothing to say about Liu Feng's explanation, but he couldn't help sighing: "The eldest prince's intention is good, but I also know that when I was in Xiakou, the eldest prince was unhappy with the master. At this time, if I wrote such a letter against the master's will, I am afraid that most of them will not be recruited for the eldest son. It's troublesome."
Ma Yu obviously secretly referred to the military meeting that Mi Zhu openly slandered him for killing Mrs. Mi at that day. It seems that this matter spread much faster than Liu Feng expected, and even low-level officers like Ma Yu have heard about it.
However, this is exactly what Liu Feng wanted. He couldn't wait for this matter to spread thousands of miles, so that everyone in the world knew how Liu Bei and his eldest brother-in-law treated this wronged adopted son.
For Ma's reminder, Liu Feng only smiled and said lightly, "For the sake of the overall situation, personal momentary honor and disgrace is nothing. Don't worry, I have my own moderation."
Ma Yu knew Liu Feng's surname. Seeing that he had made up his mind, he could not persuade him again. With emotion, he thought of the business, so he said, " By the way, I have completed the deployment according to the previous plan, and I'm waiting for the fish to take the bait."
"Very good, then let the brothers eat and drink well, and wait to watch the show."
............
Linxiang City.
When Huang Zhong led hundreds of songs, and Han Xuan's hundreds of other soldiers left the city to fight, Han Xuan, was not idle. He mobilized nearly a thousand soldiers and horses in Linxiang City to prepare for the battle, and he personally climbed the North Gate Tower to help Huang Zhong.
It's not so much a fight, it's not like a surveillance.
In Han Xuan's imagination, Huang Zhong will fight bravely under his supervision. After a fight, even if he can't cut off Liu Feng's head, at least he can defeat the enemy in the future and remove the threat of Changsha County from then on.
But what Han Xuan didn't expect was that the expected fierce battle did not happen. Instead, Huang Zhong had a single-rider meeting with Liu Feng in front of the two armies.
And because they were too far apart, Han Xuan couldn't hear what the two were talking about at all, but when he saw that the two of them laughed and said goodbye later, it was like a long reunion. Seeing this, Han Xuan's face grew longer and longer, and the haze in his heart became thicker and thicker.
What shocked Han Xuan most was that after returning to the front, Liu Feng led his troops to retreat to the north, and Huang Zhong did not wave his army to chase, but directly turned around and led the army back to Linxiang City.
'Huang Zhong, what the hell are you doing!'
Under the excitement of this scene, Han Xuan immediately hurried down to the city and stopped Huang Zhong, who had just entered the gate. Tie Qing asked with a face, "General Huang, I ordered you to go out of the city to kill the enemy. Why didn't you fight and retreat?"
Huang Zhong saw Han Xuan's elongated face and thought that he suspected that he was saving his strength, but he didn't explain much in front of many people, so he whispered, "Han Taishou, it's not convenient to talk here. Let's go back to the government office and talk about it in detail."
Han Xuan was also afraid of disturbing the army, so he had to endure it for the time being. On the one hand, he sent scouts out of the city to reconce the enemy's movements, and returned to the Taishou Mansion with Huang Zhong with a gloomy face.
As soon as he entered the lobby, Han Xuan asked impatiently, "General Huang, what did the boy surnamed Liu say to you in the two armies?"
Huang Zhong has nothing to hide. When he was about to have a conversation with Liu Feng at that time, he said it again.
Huang Zhong's words were frank, but Han Xuan's face was full of suspicion. When he finished listening to him, he snorted coldly and frowned, "General Huang, did you just say that?"
Han Xuan's words and tone have been quite obvious. Although Huang Zhong's political judgment is not strong, as a 60-year-old man, how can he even hear this strong suspicion?
Suddenly, Huang Zhong's heart wiped a trace of coolness, and he suddenly realized that today's single ride seemed to be inappropriate. However, he asked himself with a clear conscience and said, "Han Taishou, what do you mean?"
"What do you mean?" Han Xuan sneered, and his tone was a little yin and yang. "Huang Hansheng, who is Liu Bei? He is a tiger and wolf, and his son can be a kind of kindness. Do you really think that I will naively believe that boy will promise you to write a letter to his father to persuade him to retreat?"
Although Han Xuan's suspicion annoyed Huang Zhong, he also reminded Huang Zhong. Gradually, he began to realize that today's single riding meeting may be a trap set by Liu Feng.
Thinking of this, Huang Zhong said urgently, "Whether Mrs. Han believes it or not, Huang dares to swear to heaven that everything I say is true. I think that if Liu Feng is really lying, his real purpose must be to alienate. He wants to make Han Taishou have some suspicions about me. I implore Han Taishou not to be hit by the other party's anniversal.
Today, how can we not let Han Xuan be suspicious, but Han Xuan is not a brainless idiot. Hearing Huang Zhong's self-defense, he seemed to have some truth when he turned around, and his ugly expression immediately converged a little.
After a moment of meditation, Han Xuan suddenly looked proud and said with a smile, "General Huang's words are reasonable. I almost fell into the annihibition plan of the surnamed Liu. However, I think that the boy took the initiative to withdraw from the army. He must want to sit and wait for you to avoid infighting. Then why don't we take advantage of his lack of prevention? Tonight, the old general will lead the army to attack his camp at night, and he will be able to defeat him in one fell swoop.
