Chapter 114 Furious
(Thanks for the fluttering flames and the reward of the oriental pastoral song)
The raging fire burned all night. The next morning, the fire gradually went out, but the thick smoke was stronger. The whole Yiyang City was like a huge charcoal, which was suddenly extinguished by water, and the whole city was gasping in black and white steam.
Although the fire was burning fiercely, in fact, Liu Bei's army suffered a lot of losses. The next day, the soldiers who fled in all directions heard that Liu Bei was still alive, so they gathered from ants on all sides. Counting the number of people, missing, burned to death by the fire, coupled with the fact that Ximen was killed by the ambush, the soldiers lost less than 1,000 people.
Yiyang City.
The city, which could originally accommodate tens of thousands of people, is now a piece of ashes. Liu Bei, who re-entered Yiyang, walked silently on the dilapidated streets. What he saw in his eyes were the broken walls left after the fire.
The soldiers bowed their heads and looked for the traces of survivors on the rubble. From time to time, the burned soldiers were carried by the road, and the pleasant wailing deeply stung Liu Bei's heart.
He was not heartbroken for the tragic situation of the soldiers. What made him heartbroken was that he was humiliated by the rebellious son by such a sinister means. It is not terrible to lose to anyone, but to Liu Feng, Liu Bei's self-esteem has never been hit so hard.
"Master, I found it."
Under the leadership of several soldiers, Liu Bei came to a burned house. In the middle of the backyard, there was a big hole two feet wide.
"The last general has sent people into the cave to investigate. According to the footprints found at the scene, the enemy should be hidden in a forest not far from the entrance of the cave, because it is very close to the city, our scouts didn't pay much attention at that time."
Staring at the Hessend's hole, Liu Bei's gray face, muscles are faintly **.
This rebellious son, what a bullshit "avoidance", is the same as Liu Bei had guessed before. It was really another conspiracy, but Liu Bei did not expect that Liu Feng would set such a delicate trap. Such a cunning scheme really made him unable to believe that Liu Feng could come up with it.
Kicking a piece of gravel into the hole, Liu Bei said hatefully, "Sent someone back to Xiakou immediately, and let Xu Yuan come and meet as soon as possible."
Bachu Port.
Two hundred warships, five thousand navy, and the Jiangxia army commanded by Guan Yu entered the port in the evening. Since the end of the Battle of Jiangling, it was the first time that Baqiu Port had been stationed in a fleet of such a scale, and the Wu army of the whole port suddenly became lively again.
However, the Wu people are not to welcome the arrival of allies, but to be fully alert in case of accidents. This is the order of their governor Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu also has another order that Baqiu Port will be open to both Liu Bei and Liu Feng. Whether it is a cargo ship or a warship, as long as they are not hostile, they will be allowed to dock equally.
On the three-story battleship, there was a dead silence, and the sailors inside and outside did not dare to make a sound. They walked and did things lightly, and did not dare to make even a little noise, as if they were afraid of disturbing something.
In the inner cabin, a body lay quietly on the cold floor. There were traces of thin threads between the neck of the body. The pale face still maintained a ferocious expression, and the pupils were scattered in the angry eyes.
This is a corpse, Guan Ping's body.
Next to him, the towering warrior was silently staring at the corpse under his feet. His jujube-red face was trembling slightly, and his nose was as heavy as thunder, swaying and dancing like a waterfall.
Squeak, the door opened, and an iron tower-like black-faced officer came in carefully. When he saw the flat body on the ground, he immediately showed sadness.
After following Guan Yu for many years, Zhou Cang can be said to have watched Guan Ping grow up. Looking at the once familiar little general, now he is in a different place, how can he not be sad?
To hide the sadness in his heart for the time being, Zhou Cang whispered, "General, there is news about Yiyang."
"Tay it." Guan Yu's expression is still as cold as iron.
Zhou Cang whispered, "Liu Feng used the plan to burn Yiyang, and the lord lost a thousand soldiers. At this time, Liu Feng has retreated to Linxiang. The lord ordered the general not to move lightly. After Xu Yuan came, the two armies will meet again and take Linxiang."
"Liu Feng, Liu Feng--" Guan Yu meditated on this familiar name, and the picture of his beloved son being cut off by the man came to his mind, and the anger in his heart rolled up like a surging magma.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes angrily and shouted, "Gate my order, the whole army will leave the port immediately and go to Linxiang in the starry night."
The murderous spirit of hunting was like a tide, spreading from the magnificent body. Zhou Cang, a few steps away, was overwhelmed by the unprecedented murderous air.
Zhou Cang's asthma accelerated, tried his best to calm the disordered mind, and carefully reminded, "But the lord has an order, so that the general can't move lightly. He must wait until Xu Yuan can go south until later."
Guan Yu stared at him suddenly: "What's there to wait for, Liu Feng, that beast, am I afraid that he won't be able to do it? Order the whole army to start immediately!"
"No."
After following Guan Yu for many years, Zhou Cang had never seen this beautiful man who despised the world. There was such a moment of anger. Obviously, his beloved son's death really angered him. Guan Yu, who was in anger, even the lord Liu Bei was afraid of three points. Zhou Cang dared to disobey again and quickly left the cabin.
The cabin calmed down again. Guan Yu bent down, stretched out his hand tremblingly, and stroked his son's cold face.
"Dingguo, don't worry, the father will definitely cut off the head of the beast with his own hands, and your revenge will soon be avenged."
..................
In Linxiang City hundreds of miles away, Liu Fengzheng led his thousand triumphant soldiers into the city with the good news of burning Yiyang.
Liu Feng has always been low-key, but this time he specially held a grand triumphal ceremony to boost the morale of the officials and people of the city and strengthen their confidence and fighting spirit with victory.
"Lord, your move to burn Yiyang is really an eye-opener for us."
In the Taishou Mansion, the veteran Huang Zhong couldn't help praising him. If Huang Zhong's previous "partnership" was still for helpless reasons, now after learning the news of Liu Feng's defeat to Liu Bei, the whole person has been convinced of Liu Feng's strength, and this name has been changed to "Lord" like others.
"The old general is flattered. Liu Bei has always despised me. It was I who grasped his weakness that made a surprise victory. However, he was on guard, and I'm afraid it won't work if he uses the same trick next time."
Liu Feng looked around the crowd and suddenly found that Liu Qi was not present, so he asked, " By the way, where is the eldest brother Zide?"
"Cough--" Ma Yu coughed a few times, approached Liu Feng, and almost whispered, "Zhou Mu is drunk and hasn't woken up yet. I have sent someone to call him."
Liu Feng was stunned first, and then realized and sighed in his heart, "This boy, like Xia Kou, never forgets to have fun at any time."
