Chapter 790 Jingzhou Rebellion
At this time, all the troops were exhausted and hungry. In addition, most of the soldiers were frustrated repeatedly. Cai Mao then ordered the soldiers to rest and go to grab the house to make food. Cai Mao and the generals rest in the government.
After the first update, there was a sudden strong wind. The gatekeeper flew to report the fire. The generals were shocked again and thought it was Zhuge Liang's plan. Cai Mao was calm and thought that his army was strong. How dare Liu Bei invade rashly, so he said to the generals.
"This must be a careless meal made by the sergeant in the city. Don't be surprised by the missing fire."
It's not over yet. There have been several flying reports in a row, and the three gates in the west, south and north are on fire. When Cai Mao hurriedly ordered the generals to get on the horse, the whole Xinye City was full of fire, and the red hair was shining up and down.
At the three gates of the west, south and north, a round of rockets flew up and landed on the surrounding houses, immediately bursting into flames. Jingzhou people in the house fled for their lives in a hurry, and one round after another of sad screams shook the whole Xinye City.
It is the fire of the night, like the fire of hell, like burning in the world, taking countless lives. Cai Mao was so pale with fear that his face was pale and his mind was full of drama. At that moment, he attracted the generals to suddenly smoke and run away. There were countless crowds around, and the soldiers scrambled to get the way and wanted to escape from the hell on earth. Cai Mao looked like crazy. He ordered the front to open the road. When he saw people, he cut and killed the bleeding road. On the road, I heard that there was no fire at the east gate, so I rushed out of the east gate.
The sergeants trampled on each other, and countless people died. Cai Mao and other generals fought with their own soldiers, and their blood was red all over. Only then did they get rid of the fire. It was a little settled, and there was a sudden shout behind his back. Hua Xiong attracted five hundred elite soldiers, burst out, and rushed to the melee. Hua Xiong danced with a broken dragon knife, like entering a no-man's land, rushed left and right, and flew to Cai Mao.
"Cai Deyu, take your life!!!!"
Hua Xiong Hu's eyes stared round, and his eyebrows stood up. The fire shone on him like a hellish Shura. He was carrying a knife and flying in the chaotic army, and he saw that he was about to kill. At this time, Cai Mao was so scared that he fled. Liu Xian and Deng Yi led the army to resist and killed Hua Xiong. Hua Xiong stabbed fiercely and broke through the crowd. First, he rushed to Liu Xian. Liu Xian didn't expect it. Hua Xiong's hand fell with a knife. He was cut off his head by Hua Xiong's knife, and his body fell under the horse. Hua Xiong's eyes were creepy and he shot Deng Yi. Deng Yi didn't dare to offend his power and immediately grabbed the road and fled. Hua Xiong caught up and was blocked by the people of Jingzhou. Five hundred elite soldiers rushed behind Hua Xiong. At this time, the people of Jingzhou were exhausted and mentally weak, but many people were chaotic. It was not the opponent of Hua Xiong and his tiger and wolf soldiers, and they were immediately killed one after another. The defeated army fled for their lives, and who would turn around and fight?
Cai Mao's army was full of people, and most of the sergeants were anxious and fled out of a slope outside the city. Suddenly, two cannons sounded in unison. Chen Shi on the left led an army to kill, and Liu Feng on the right rushed to resist the slope. When the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou saw that there was an ambush, as if they had been ambushed on all sides, they had no will to fight, and their morale fell to the bottom. Chen Shi and Liu Feng fought bravely. The soldiers and horses in Jingzhou were defeated like a mountain. Chen Shi killed the fastest. More than a dozen Jingzhou soldiers were under his sharp knife. Liu Feng was also not inferior. He danced his gun with one arm and killed seven or eight Jingzhou soldiers. Seeing this, the soldiers around Jingzhou could no longer stop their fear and fled everywhere regardless of the command.
Seeing this, Cai Mao quickly turned around and turned away. At this time, Hua Xiong led the army to kill quickly. As soon as Cai Mao saw Hua Xiong, he suddenly felt that a cold air from the soles of his feet surged straight to the top of his head. He only felt that he had been forced to a dead end, and his wings were difficult to fly!
At this moment, a team of soldiers around Cai Mao suddenly rushed out. A general in the team shouted to Cai Mao.
"Faler, run away quickly!!! As long as you can save your life, Jingzhou will be in the hands of my Cai family!!!"
It turned out that this team of soldiers were all members of the Cai clan. In order to repay the prosperity of the world, even if they knew that they would die, they were willing to sacrifice. Hundreds of Cai's dead men rushed to Hua Xiong. Hua Xiong slashed randomly with a knife, but he couldn't break through for a while. Seeing this, Cai Mao hurriedly pulled the horse and fled. With the support of a soldier and horse, he was able to escape.
Cai Mao fled all the way. Where did he fled, he was afraid that there would be an ambush. Regardless of fatigue and sacrificed his life, he went straight out of the new field. It was difficult for all the soldiers and horses to catch up, and most of them were lost. When Cai Mao left Xinye, he was really unable to escape and rested in a mountain pass.
Each general briefly ordered the soldiers and horses. The vast 80,000 troops led by Cai Mao in the past were less than 20,000 left at this time. The rest of the people were either burned to death by the fire in Xinye City or killed by Liu's troops, and most of the rest were captured or lost.
At this time, there was a group of people talking about it. There was a general who reported Cai Mao. Zhuge Liang had made a conclusion three days ago that Cai Mao was bound to be defeated this time. When those soldiers heard it, they all sighed at its magic and regarded him as a god.
After listening to this, Cai Mao suddenly surged in his heart and shouted shiversily.
"Zhuge Villageman, dare to do this!!!! If I don't kill you, I won't go back to Jingzhou!!!"
After drinking, Cai Mao spit out a mouthful of blood and fainted to the ground. The generals were shocked and hurried to save him. After a night, Cai Maoyou woke up, and the generals were smonished to go back to Jingzhou first and then make plans.
Cai Mao's eyes were full of hatred, and he gritted his teeth and shouted angrily.
"No! I have vowed to kill Zhuge Village, otherwise I will never return to Jingzhou. At present, I still have 20,000 soldiers and horses in Xiangyang County. After I get the Xiangyang soldiers and horses, I will rectify them and then go to Fancheng. I am bound to take the head of Zhuge Village!"
As soon as Fu Xun heard this, his mind turned electric, his thoughts for a while, and he quickly gave his hand to remonish.
"General, wait and listen to Fu's words. Today, Liu Bei abandoned Xinye and moved all the people of Xinye to Fancheng. If I enter with the troops of Xiangyang, the people of the two counties will be powdered. The reason why Liu Bei wins every battle depends on Zhuge's plan. Zhuge Kongming is a man who loves the people. It's better to let people surrender Liu Bei first. If Liu Bei does not surrender, Zhuge Liang will definitely be separated from him when he sees the danger of abandoning the people. If he surrenders, the general can appease him first, and at the same time give Zhuge Liang a heavy position to alienate Liu and Zhuge. If the two of them are separated, their power can break through without attack!"
Cai Mao's eyes stared, and his face changed repeatedly. Seeing that the surrounding soldiers had lingering lingering, he had to suppress his anger and hatred first, and asked again from Fu Xun's words.
"Who can do it?"
Fu Xun recommended himself, and Cai Mao ordered him to do it. Fu Xun took the order and went, riding a fast horse with several riders, and rushed to Fancheng in the starry night. The next night, Liu Bei heard that Fu Xun came to see him, as if he had expected, and there was no surprise. In fact, Zhuge Liang had already predicted and had already told Liu Bei. Liu Bei is also used to the magic of Zhuge Liang. Immediately, Liu Bei received Fu Xun. Fu Xun finished his salute and opened his mouth and said.
"Although the emperor's uncle defeated our army in the past. However, there are still 30,000 soldiers and horses in Xiangyang, and there are also 30,000 guards in Jingzhou. The previous defeat was due to contempt for Zhuge's plan. Now all the people in our army know that Zhuge is powerful. If we send troops again, we must be cautious. In an instant, our army will be able to step on Fancheng, but we can pity the lives of the people. The emperor's uncle is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. He loves the people as much as his life, and he is willing to surrender. General Cai can promise to be exempted from the title. If he is more obsessed, the military and the people will kill together, and the jade will be burned!!!"
Fu Xun said all the words, righteous words, and secretly looked at Liu Bei's face. Liu Bei seemed to be unheard of, and his face had no ripples. Liu Bei did not answer, Zhuge Liang covered his palm and smiled first.
"Hahaha! OK! OK! OK! Fu Gong's words show that General Cai is broad-minded and really a benevolent person!"
Fu Xun frowned. He didn't hear Zhuge Liang's admiration at all. Instead, he was a little sarcastic. Fu Xun knew how wise Zhuge Liang was and did not want to pester him. He looked at Liu Bei in a blink of an eye and asked again.
"I don't know what the emperor's intention is. Fancheng now gathers the people of the two counties. What their lives are all in the mind of the emperor's uncle.
Liu Bei smiled indifferently and said to Zhuge Liang with a wink.
"I, Liu Xuande, have been exiled all my life and have been framed by countless traitors. Now I can still survive, all because of Kong Ming's wisdom. Kong Ming, you can make the decision for me. It's all up to you whether you surrender or not!"
When Fu Xun heard this, his face suddenly changed. Liu Bei trusted Zhuge Liang so much that even such a major decision was decided by Zhuge Liang. It can be seen that the relationship between the two is extraordinary, far beyond ordinary kings and ministers. Zhuge Liang bowed humbly, thanked Liu Bei first, and then said slowly to Fu Xun with a faint smile.
"Fu Caoyue might as well come with Liang, and immediately know that my Lord will not surrender."
Seeing Zhuge Liang so mysterious, Fu Xun's heart tightened. It was in hesitation that Zhuge Liang had stepped out. Seeing this, Fu Xun quickly followed him. Zhuge Liang took Fu Xun to the front of the county government. Suddenly, he held a drum and slammed the drum.
Dong~! Dong~~!! Dong~~!!!
With such a rhythm, the drums are played three times. Many people came to hear the sound and gathered outside the county government gate, looking at each other. Fu Xun was surprised to see the people outside the door surging. Zhuge Liang condensed his concentration and shouted loudly.
"Fathers and Fathers! Although our army defeated General Cai's army, there were still 60,000 soldiers and horses in Jingzhou, if they overturned and attacked. Fancheng is alone, and most of them will be trampled by General Cai's army and razed to the ground. In an instant, all the villagers will suffer a great disaster. How can my lord, Uncle Liu, be indifferent to the suffering of the people and the death of their families?
At the right time, General Cai sent Fu Caoxuan to surrender. There is an order! If Uncle Liu surrenders to him, he will be exempt from the title. If you don't surrender, the army and the people will kill together, and the jade will be burned!
Fortunately, it was trusted by Uncle Liu, and it was delivered to Liang. Uncle Liang knows that he is all for the people. Liang will deliver it to you, and it's up to you to choose!"
As soon as Zhuge Liang's voice fell, there was an uproar all around. Fu Xun was even more stunned. When he came to his senses, he suddenly found that countless sharp and angry eyes shot over. Fu Xun only felt as if he had been pierced by ten thousand arrows.
Then there was a quick roar.
"Uncle Liu is the king of benevolence and righteousness!!! I would rather die than surrender. I would like to coexist with my uncle!!!"
"We would rather die than surrender, and I would like to coexist with my uncle!!!"
"We would rather die than surrender, and I would like to coexist with my uncle!!!"
I saw a young man raising his arms and shouting antagonistically. Soon, dozens of people beside him immediately responded and roared. After a wave, a white-haired old man shouted with a blown beard.
"Uncle Liu is kind to the people and is the wise king of the world. I have never seen such a benevolent and righteous monarch in my life. Although I am old, I am willing to pay his body and defend Fancheng for my uncle!"
After the old man's words, the sound was even louder, and Fu Xun's whole body surged directly, shaking his ears. Another hunchbacked old woman shouted with a cane.
"Please don't worry about us and other people. As long as we can follow the emperor, even if we go to the mountain of knives and go down the sea of fire, we are willing to follow each other!"
Then there was a series of shouts.
"The emperor's uncle is a righteous man in the world, and Cai Dekui is tyrannical and rebellious. He is a thief in the world."
