Chapter 183 Wings
(Thank you for being too stupid. I'm Chen Luulu's reward, hehe) Liu Feng nodded, took Sun Shangxiang's hand, and said solemnly, "After I go back to Linxiang, once I send troops, I will send someone to inform you immediately. You must be careful along the way."
Sun Shangxiang smiled faintly and comforted, "Husband, don't worry, it's the boundary of Eastern Wu all the way. What can I do? I walk slowly, just think of it as a tour of mountains and rivers."
Liu Fengjian's eyebrows condensed slightly: "I'm not worried about your safety. I'm afraid that Wu Hou will know that I will attack Liu Bei in this way and hold you in anger."
Sun Shangxiang's heart moved and suddenly sighed, "If the second brother really refuses to let me go back to Jingzhou, husband, you will forget me. Don't marry a beautiful woman again."
Liu Feng was stunned for a moment, suddenly looked murderous, and resolutely said, "Except for you, who can be my Liu Feng's wife? If Wuhou really dares to hold you back, I will march to the east and kill you into the mausoleum to take you back with my own hands."
Liu Feng's words were fierce, but Sun Shangxiang was moved by his heart. On the beautiful jade face, a gratifying smile appeared.
She suddenly tiptoed her toes and gently kissed Liu Feng's face. She flew beside her face and whispered, "It's enough to have your words."
She was as gentle as water, which only made Liu Feng suddenly think in an instant.
"Don't worry, as soon as I receive your message of sending troops, I will leave and return to Linxiang immediately. No one dares to stop me. When the second brother receives the message, I have already returned to you."
When he came back from a trance, Sun Shangxiang's comfort made him feel much more at ease, so he also bowed his head and kissed her forehead, "Be careful all the way. I'm going."
Without hesitation, he got off the boat, took the small boat to another big boat, turned the bow of the boat and headed west.
Sun Shangxiang saw his ship go all the way, from the bow to the stern, until the white sail disappeared into the fog.
............A few days later, Jiangling.
Guan Yu was very unhappy. The jujube red face, which was not angry at all, looked even more scary at this moment.
Nearly a month has passed since the rebellion of Wuxi Man. Many counties in the south of Wuling have been breached. Linyuan, the governor, was besieged, and the Taishou Fan Yan's letters for help were sent one after another. To Guan Yu's dissatisfaction, Liao Hua led 5,000 elite soldiers to the south to suppress the rebellion. In more than ten days, there was no progress.
As soon as the expected army arrived, the scene of the barbarian soldiers' collapse in the first battle did not happen. The combat effectiveness of this group of barbarians seemed to have greatly exceeded Guan Yu's expectations.
With a well-equipped 5,000 direct troops, it has not been a group of barbarians who are still engaged in slash-and-and-burn rebellion for so long. It has been spread out. What is my Guan Yu's reputation?
Bang!
Guan Yu patted the case fiercely and said angrily, "Liao Hua is incompetent. It seems that I have to go out in person."
As soon as this statement came out, Zhao Lei under the account hurriedly said, "General, in the opinion of the last general, the rebellion of the barbarian soldiers is only a skin disease, and Liu Feng in Changsha is the confidant's problem. If the general leaves Jiangling, then Liu Feng will hear the news and lead the army to attack."
Although Guan Yu was arrogant, it did not mean that he was stupid. Liu Feng was very clear about how patient he was. Zhao Lei's words immediately woke him up a little.
"It is said that Liu Feng has recruited troops and horses in the past two years, and his troops have expanded rapidly. In fact, his strength is obviously beyond the scope of self-protection. General, this person must be guarded."
Of course, Guan Yu knew that Liu Feng was a threat, but the rebellion of Wuxi Man could not be calmed down. The news spread to the front line of Shuzhong, which would also affect the morale of the front-line soldiers. At the critical moment of Liu Bei's battle for Shu, Guan Yu certainly did not want to carry a reputation of "draging back".
In the matter of whether to personally suppress the rebellion or not, Guan Yu was in a dilemma.
In a moment of hesitation, the soldiers hurried in and presented the latest information from Lukou.
Guan Yu opened the sealed bamboo tube and pulled out the silk book to read it. The cloudy face miraculously appeared with a smile.
A proud smile.
"God helps me, it's really God helping me, haha--"
It's rare for the second master to be so happy. When the generals saw the situation, they were a little uncomfortable and looked at each other at a loss.
"General, I don't know what's the happy thing?" Zhao Lei asked cautiously.
"Wait and see." Guan Yu threw the secret report to the generals, with his hands on his hand, and his face was proud.
It turned out that it was a secret report from Lukou. Liu Feng and Sun Shangxiang appeared in Lukou not long ago, claiming that they would accompany Sun Shangxiang back to the province of Muling, and also met with Lu Su. At present, they have left the east of Lukou.
The intelligence in the secret report was very clear. Even Liu Feng, who took more than a thousand people, planned to send Sun Quan to help in the war, and prepared to send a batch of food and fodder to the east later.
It's no wonder that Liu Feng traveled east with great fanfare. With the intelligence network arranged by Guan Yu in the land port, it would be strange if he couldn't find out clearly.
"Liu Feng, a beast, wants to please Sun Quan. Humph, this is a good opportunity given to me by God. I happened to go south to calm down the rebellion of the barbarians in person."
Although Guan Yu contemptuously called Liu Feng a "beast", he was still quite afraid of Liu Feng. Now that he heard that Liu Feng had gone to Muling, he would no longer have any worries.
Zhao Lei read this information carefully. Although the worries between his eyebrows have decreased a lot, he is still worried: "General, although Liu Feng has gone eastward, the last general feels that the general should not leave Jiangling easily."
"With such worries, how can you achieve great things!" Guan Yu looked unhappy and stared at Zhao Lei with cold eyebrows. "I have made up my mind. You should follow me to Wuling to pace the rebellion."
Zhao Lei was refuted, and his heart was slightly cold, but he still couldn't help saying, "If the general pours his whole army to the south to pace the rebellion, will the defense of Jiangling be a little empty?"
Guan Yu waved his hand and said, "There is Mi Zizhong guard in Jiangling City. Then he will pass the order to the Shiren of the public security, so that he pay close attention to the report of the beacon along the river. Once something happens, he will immediately send someone to inform me. I will lead the army to quickly help the public security. As long as the public security is fine, Jiangling City will naturally be safe and sound."
Zhao Lei is still waiting to be persuaded. Guan Yu has said categorically, "That's it. You don't need to say more. Go down quickly and prepare. Within two days, the army must set out."
..................Seven days later, Linxiang City, Zhennan General's Mansion.
"Gentlemen, the urgent report that General Huang has just arrived. Guan Yu's army has crossed the river and is on the way to Linyuan. Everything is ready, and only the east wind is owed."
In the political hall, Liu Feng looked a little excited. When he announced the news, the whole political hall immediately fell into excitement.
It has been nearly two months since the plan to start the war. After various layouts, this most important step has finally been completed.
The big stone that weighs on everyone's heart can finally fall to the ground at the moment, but everyone's heart is immediately occupied by an unprecedented tension and excitement.
They know that what they will do next will be a major event in history. The fate of each of them, and even the direction of the whole world, will be changed because of what they have done.
At this moment, many people suddenly have a trance illusion, as if they are the invisible god with the pen of fate, and they will write this legend of their own.
Pang Tong brushed his short beard with a smile on his face, and he was still so confident.
Liu Ba's face was also excited, but she looked a little ashamed.
As for the young horse, he is unprecedentedly excited and eager to try.
Famity, power, wealth, and bloody fighting are nothing more than these three things. Now, such a seductive reward is within reach. No matter what their purpose is, but at this moment, everyone's hearts are twisted into a rope, just for the common goal.
At present, Liu Feng issued the order to start the war.
Guan Yu's hand [***] has 20,000 elite soldiers. Among them, Shi Ren led 5,000 soldiers and horses to guard the public security city, and there were 2,000 soldiers in the two counties of Wuling and Lingling. That is to say, there were 11,000 soldiers and horses who were originally left in Jiangling.
Previously, Liao Hua had led 5,000 troops south into Wuling, and according to intelligence, Guan Yu took nearly 3,000 soldiers and horses from Jiangling this time. That is to say, Mi Zhu, who stayed in Jiangling at this time, only had about 3,000 troops in his hands.
Although there are few three thousand soldiers and horses, the wall of Jiangling is high and thick. If three thousand soldiers and horses are defended, it is enough to resist the siege several times more than themselves. Fortunately, Liu Feng's strategy for this battle was not a steady and hard attack, but a surprise attack.
According to the enemy's existing troop distribution, Liu Feng deployed his own operations accordingly.
After more than two years of military expansion, Liu Feng had nearly 23,000 troops in his hand.
On the side of Guiyang, Wei Yan and Ma Liang led 4,000 troops to Lingling.
The five thousand soldiers and horses of Yiyang Huangzhong's troops went north from Yiyang to join the barbarian soldiers of Samoko's army and contain the main force of Guan Yu's army from the south.
Pang Tong and Liu Ba led 2,000 soldiers to stay in Changsha. Liu Feng himself led Ma, Chen and other generals, and led more than 12,000 main troops to surprise the public security and Jiangling. After the battle, a part of the soldiers and horses went up against the river, quickly broke through the two counties of Jianping and Yidu, cut off the connection between Jingzhou and Shuzhong, and blocked the return of Guan Yu's army to Shuzhong.
After all kinds of soldiers and horses got their hands, they quickly marched towards Guan Yu's main force from the north and south, striving to enclose Guan Yu in the narrow area of the Linyuan line.
In this battle, Liu Feng's goal is not only to control Jingzhou, but also to annihet the Guan Yu army.
The deployment of all kinds of soldiers and horses had been re-deduced before. General Liu Fengzhennan ordered, and Zhu Wenwu immediately became busy according to the order.
And Liu Feng has to say goodbye to a person before leaving.
In the backyard, the sick person who described as withering and dying lay on a wooden wheelchair, and the dim yellow sun sprinkled on him, with a faint sense of loneliness and desolation.
The breeze gently brushed his face, faintly bringing the fragrance of soil and grass. He lay so quietly, closed his eyes, and his ears were all quiet. In a trance, he returned to the once beautiful era.
"Brother." Liu Feng walked over silently and looked at the terminally ill brother, with a faint pain in his heart.
When Liu Qi opened her eyes and saw that it was Liu Feng, her stiff face squeezed out a smile and said in a trembling voice, "A Feng, you're here."
Liu Feng bent down, stroked his shoulder, and said with a smile, "Brother, I'm here to say goodbye to you."
"A Feng, are you going to fight with Liu Bei?" Liu Qi, who was sick and confused, suddenly flashed a trace of excitement in her eyes.
Liu Feng nodded heavily, "Tomorrow I will lead the army to fight for our great cause. Brother, take good care of yourself. It won't be long before I will accompany you to your hometown in Jiangling.
