Chapter 200 Liu Bei is angry
At the beginning of Xiangyang, there are still more than 10,000 Cao troops between Xiangyang and Jiangling. On the day Liu Feng persuaded and persuaded Kai Liang to become an official, he had ordered someone to make a book, stamped Cao Ren's seal letter, and went to the area of Dangyang to recruit these Cao troops.
At the same time, Liu Feng sent people back to Jiangling quickly and ordered Pang Tong to guard Jiangling. Chen Dao, Sha Moke and others led the army across the river to the north, supplemented by force to surrender Cao's army.
A day later, Cao Ren was captured, and the news of the fall of Xiangyang City reached Dangyang, which immediately caused a loud wave. More than 10,000 Cao's army, who were panicked, immediately fell into an unprecedented panic.
Then, Liu Feng's letters of persuading surrender were sent one after another. Among the generals of Cao's army, different opinions were formed on whether to surrender or not, and the two sides were in dispute.
The situation at this time is that Xiangyang fell, and the family members of the whole army were all Liu Feng's income. It was only a matter of time before the soldiers broke down.
Dangyang is in the east for Hanshui, but at this moment, it has been cut off by the Wu people's sailors. Xiangyang and Jiangling in the north and south are all owned by Liu Feng, and there are mountains in the west. Although it can be moved from the rugged mountain road to Fangling County, the mountain road is difficult to walk. Can this more than 10,000 troops escape to Fangling alive without grain supply? An unknown number.
The generals quarreled for two days but could not be unified. The Jingzhou army in the south had begun to force north. Under the emergency, Man Chong, in the name of General Fenwei, forcibly decided to lead the troops to Linju Road and withdraw from Dangyang to Fangling.
With the order, the main surrender was in an uproar, and Cao Ren's general Niu Jin took a group of generals to the full pet account angrily to question.
As soon as he entered the big account, Niu Jin shouted angrily, "Man Bening, why do you insist on leading the army to retreat north regardless of the life and death of General Zhengnan?"
In the face of the fierce Niu Jin, Man Chong had been prepared for a long time, with a helpless look on his face and sighing, "General Cao is the pillar of the country. He was captured, and I was also very heartbroken. But if we are soldiers of the country, not private soldiers, how can we surrender with the whole army because of the capture of a general?
Man Chong was born as a literati and was known for his strict law enforcement. In his early years as the magistrate of Xu County, Cao Hong's relatives had violated the law many times in Xu County. Man Chong arrested them. Cao Hong personally pleaded with Man Chong. Cao Hong had no choice but to plead with Cao Yan.
As a result, Man Chong killed the offender in advance before Cao Wei came.
In the eyes of full pet, he obeyed Cao Ren, which was the power granted by the state to lead Cao Ren. Now that Cao Ren has been captured, the relationship between superiors and subordinates is naturally dissolved.
However, Man Chong obviously doesn't understand the relationship between the military.
As soon as Niu Jin heard this, he looked more and more ferocious and shouted, "General Zhengnan said in the letter that if we stubbornly resist and do not surrender, he will have the worry of his life. Man Bunning, didn't you hurt General Zhengnan if you retreated like this?
Man Chong was very depressed. He felt that his great truth was in vain. The fierce martial artist in front of him didn't listen to it at all.
Man Chong had to persuade patiently: "General Cao always put state affairs first. How can he do such a thing because he is greedy for life and afraid of death? The letter of persuasion is obviously a forgery of the enemy, just a seal of General Cao. How can we take it seriously?
Niu Jin waved his hand and said resolutely, "I don't care whether the letter is true or not. General Jin Zhengnan is very kind to me. I, Niu Jin, will never risk his surname."
What Niu Jin said about "en's kindness is as heavy as a mountain" is also true.
In the Battle of Jiangling, Zhou Yu's army besieged the city. Niu Jin volunteered to lead hundreds of people out of the city to challenge. As a result, he was besieged by the Wu army and was in danger. Seeing this, Cao Ren personally hung out of the city and led the army to save Niu Jin from the siege. Since then, Niu Jin has been working hard for Cao Ren.
Seeing that Niu Jin was so entangled, Man Chong was finally provoked, and his expression suddenly became fierce. He said in a low voice, "General Niu, the law of the country is at the head, how can you abolish the public for personal gain!"
"I don't care about the national law. General Cao is the national law." Niu Jin was not afraid at all. He shouted at the pet and spit on his face.
The rest of Cao Ren's generals all shouted and echoed.
In the face of these aggressive warriors who regard the national law as nothing, he was furious and said harshly, "I am the general of Fenwei appointed by the court. General Zhengnan was captured. I am the supreme commander here. I ordered the whole army to withdraw to Fangling. If there is any objection, I will be dealt with by military law!"
He was full of hot pets and tried to subdue the generals with the size of the official position.
The polite pet in front of him suddenly became ferocious, and the aggressive generals were immediately suppressed, and in the big tent, they became silent for a moment.
The generals looked at each other in front of each other, and finally, their eyes coincidentally focused on Niu Jin. He has the authority of the generals, and he is also the leader of the provocation. Where to go depends on his decision.
Niu Jin's anger seemed to calm down a lot in an instant. He took a few steps forward, approached Man Chong, and asked calmly, "Man Chong, I ask you again, do you have to abandon General Zhengnan and run away?"
"Abandon the coach and run away" sounds very unbearable, but Man Chong can't take much care of it at this moment.
"I have made up my mind. If you dare to disobey the order, don't kill me!" Man Chong answered Niu Jin's last question with an unprecedented sense of determination.
In the silent tent, a sneer suddenly sounded.
The sneer came from Niu Jin. He slowly turned around, with a chilling sneer on his muscular face. Gradually, the smile was twisted and deformed, and suddenly, a strong murderous spirit bursting out of his angry eyes.
The body turned sharply, with a "ceng", the knife came out of the sheath, the white and red light flashed alternately, and a bloody head rolled to the ground.
Under the doomed fate of the generals, Niu Jin gently pushed it with his backhand, and the headless body fell to the ground.
Niu Jin held a bloody knife in his hand, looked around the crowd, and said coldly, "We have all sworn that we will die together with General Zhengnan in this life. This dog thief wants to fight against us. I only have one knife to kill him. Which of you has any objections?"
He stepped on the body full of pets and held the bloody knife that was still steaming. Under such a question, who dared to object again?
At the moment, after a moment of silence, the generals shouted in unison, "We only follow the order of General Niu."
.................. Lucheng, the big account of the Chinese army.
Dead silence.
Liu Bei held the bad news from Jingzhou in his hand. His already gray face is like an old wall at this moment, which makes people feel sad when they look at it.
Just a few days ago, Liu Bei just received an urgent report from Zhuge Liang. After learning the news of the fall of Jiangling, Liu Bei, who was originally ambitious, turned into a frosted eggplant in an instant.
I thought that Chengdu was close at hand, and Yizhou would soon get it. There was Jingyi, and the dream of the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains was just around the corner. However, in an instant, the amazing news almost shattered Liu Bei's dream.
There is only a line between heaven and hell.
However, Liu Bei did not have despair. He had already tasted it when he was in Xuzhou and in Changbanpo.
He quickly comforted himself that it didn't matter if Jiangling was lost, but also about Yu. Perhaps when he received the news, Guan Yu had defeated Liu Feng's beast and recaptured Jiangling. The good news was already on the way to Shuzhong. Everything was just a false alarm.
He also made the worst plan. Even if Guan Yu could not take back Jingzhou, as long as he could withdraw to Yidu and guard the door to Jingzhou with Meng Da, it would be a blessing in misfortune.
I still have 50,000 soldiers in my hands, Yidu, Jianping, Fuling, Badong, Brazil, Guanghan and Ziqi. In addition, there are still seven counties in my hands. Moreover, Chengdu is in front of me. As long as I work harder, the whole Yizhou will win.
At that time, with Yun Chang as the forerunner, the army will go out to the east, and then take back Jingzhou.
However, what Liu Bei never expected was that the worst plan he made was not the worst at all. He never dreamed that Guan Yu would die at Liu Feng's hands.
When he was still a small mailbox, he followed him without giving up. How many glorious and rich ** and how many threats at the end of the road have never let him waver. The general, like a brother, who he relies on most, left him without warning.
At this moment, Liu Bei does have a kind of pain like a knife. This kind of pain, even when his favorite wife and concubine died, did not have even a moment.
"Yunchang...Yunchang..."
Liu Bei repeatedly said Guan Yu's words. Suddenly, he jumped up, drew his sword angrily, split the case in front of him into two, and gasped angrily, "Yun Chang, if I don't avenge this sea of blood for you, I, Liu Bei, swear not to be a man!"
Zhu Wenwu, who was hiding outside the tent, listened to the movement in the tent. When they heard the roar, everyone trembled.
No one dares to go in and advise. This group of staff is very clear about Guan Yu's position in Liu Bei's heart. Even if they know that Liu Bei has always been kind to others, no one dares to take risks to persuade at such a special time.
The sound of knives and axes came from the account. It seemed that Liu Bei was waving his sword to vent his anger and sadness.
I don't know how long it took, and finally there was no movement in the account. Everyone was relieved, but they looked at each other in front of each other, and no one dared to go first.
Just when everyone was worried and didn't know what to do, Zhuge Liang arrived.
After learning the news of Guan Yu's death, Zhuge Liang realized that the Jingzhou problem had evolved into an impossible end. He did not dare to delay any more. After making some arrangements for the military affairs of the partial division, he hurried to the Lucheng camp.
When everyone met a savior, Sun Qian was the first to meet him and said with a bitter face, "Ser, you have calculated it. The lord made a big fire inside, and we didn't dare to enter. Military master, go in and persuade him quickly.
"Wait a minute here, I'll take a look at the Lord."
Zhuge Liang nodded slightly, lifted the curtain, and slowly stepped into the tent.
When he saw Liu Beizhi, he couldn't help taking a deep breath.
