The Legend of Pei Yuanqing of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 25 Zhou Yu
"My lord, although our army won a small victory in the battle of Bowangpo, Cao Cao has a strong heart to take Jingzhou, and he will definitely regroup to attack Xinye. Our army must not take it lightly. In addition, although Jiangxia is small, it will be of great use to the lord."

"Huang Zu has always been at odds with Cai Mao, and he fought mainly against Cao Cao, unlike Cai Mao who advocated for peace. This time Dongwu took the opportunity to attack Jiangxia, and our army must help with all our strength. I heard that the defender of Fancheng, Pei Feng, is only in his twenties and has no counselors to assist him. Can General Pei take on this important task?"

In Xinye City, Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei sat opposite each other and asked their own questions.

Hearing this, Liu Bei said with a smile: "When the army division first arrived, I didn't know Yuan Qing's courage. It is very accurate to see people, and the military adviser is waiting for the good news."

"Oh? I don't think there are such generals under the lord's tent. If so, the lord is blessed." Zhuge Liang was a little surprised, his eyes thoughtful.

"Report! General Pei repelled the vanguard Ling Tong in Jiangxia, Ling Tong was stabbed by General Pei, and only a few hundred people fled to Soochow." Suddenly, a sentry came to report, and Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei were surprised.

"Okay, Yuan Qing is really brave." Liu Bei was overjoyed when he realized it.

Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "It seems that I underestimated General Yuanqing, and the Lord has a reason for employing people."

"Hahaha, when the military master meets Yuan Qing, he will appreciate Yuan Qing," Liu Bei laughed.

Soochow, Zhou Yu's tent.

"Captain, the general will be defeated by Huang Zu's reinforcements, please punish him!" Ling Tong entered the big tent, knelt down with a plop, and said to Zhou Yu, who was at the top.

Seeing Ling Tong in a state of distress, Zhou Yu, Lu Meng, and Dong Xi were astonished.

Zhou Yu quickly stood up and supported Ling Tong: "The general has tens of thousands of troops to attack Jiangxia. Even if Huang Zu has reinforcements, it shouldn't be such a big defeat?"

Ling Tong was very ashamed: "The reinforcements from Huang Zu came suddenly, our army was caught off guard and suffered heavy losses, after Huang Zu went out of the city to attack, our army was attacked from the front and back, and the reinforcement general was extraordinary, I fought with him more than ten times, and was stabbed in the arm If the guards hadn't tried their best to protect him, the last general might have died in battle."

"The general is so powerful? There is no such person under Liu Biao in Jingzhou! Could it be that Wenpin?" Zhou Yu asked suspiciously.

Ling Tong hurriedly said: "I have met Wenpin a few times, he is definitely not Wenpin, his banner is the word Pei!".

"Pei? Is there a general named Pei under Liu Biao?" Zhou Yu looked at everyone.

Dong Xi lowered his head and pondered, Lu Meng thought for a while, and then he said in a flash of inspiration: "I heard that there was a general named Pei under Liu Bei. Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang were the vanguard, but he was easily beheaded by this person, could it be this person?"

Zhou Yu's expression froze, and he frowned and said, "Now Liu Bei is in Xinye, and he lives under someone else's fence. It is very possible that Liu Biao asked him to help Huang Zu. It must be this person!"

"I didn't expect Liu Bei to have such people besides Guan Zhang," Lu Meng said in surprise.

Among the generals of Eastern Wu, Ling Tong was extremely brave, but he was easily defeated and stabbed, which shows that the general surnamed Pei is not ordinary.

Zhou Yu thought for a while, and said to Ling Tong: "General Ling is injured, go back and rest first. I personally led the army to attack Jiangxia. Although the general is brave, he is only a military general. For ten days or so, I will take it. We must conquer Jiangxia, and take Huang Zu's head and present it to the lord."

"Yes, Commander," Ling Tong said gratefully.

After Ling Tong left, Zhou Yu directly ordered: "Dong Xi, Lu Meng, gather all the troops and horses to attack Jiangxia. The governor himself will command. In addition, send someone to report to the lord, and ask the lord to dispatch General Tai Shici and General Gan Ning to help!"

Dong Xi and Lu Meng responded quickly: "Yes."

. . . . .

A few days later, outside Jiangxia City, Wu Jun's army surrounded Jiangxia densely, probably [-] in number.

Zhou Yu gave him a wink, and Dong Xi hurriedly rode out, raised his spear and challenged, "Pei Feng, come out quickly and die, my general's weapons will drink your blood and avenge General Ling Tong."

"General Pei, what should we do?" On the tower, Huang Zu asked eagerly. There are not many troops in the city now, and the 8000 troops brought by Pei Feng are only [-].

Su Fei glanced at Dong Xi and said, "Why don't I meet Dong Xi!"

Soochow and Jiangxia Jingzhou often had conflicts, so Su Fei also knew that the challenger was Dong Xi.

"Dong Xi?" Pei Feng thought for a moment, he didn't seem to be a very powerful person, but the people on Wu Jun's horse were very extraordinary.

Looking at the army flag, Zhou, Taishi, Gan, Dong, Lu, and Pei Feng became more surprised as they looked at it.

His eyes stopped on the handsome man with white armor, helmet and white cloak. Could this man be the famous Zhou Yu?
His face is as white as jade, which is really extraordinary, and there is an imposing appearance on his body, even from such a distance, he can feel it unconsciously.

There is also the slightly black general with two short halberds on his back and a long spear in his hand. I am afraid that he is Tai Shici. This is a fierce general who is inseparable from Sun Ce!

The Confucian general with scholarly temperament should be Lu Meng, and the last one with bright armor and red cloak is the Jinfan thief Gan Ning?
Seeing that Pei Feng didn't respond, Dong Xi continued to tease: "I thought it was some kind of powerful general, but it turned out to be just a turtle with a shrunken head. I advise you to leave quickly, lest you lose your life and regret it too late!".

"I'm going to fight him." Su Fei frowned, and was about to go out of the city to fight, but was stopped by Pei Feng: "Now is not the time."

"General Huang Zu, you can order someone to shoot him. Wu Jun is eager, but our army will not let him do what he wants. When his sharpness fades, our army will attack." Pei Feng looked at Huang Zu and said.

Huang Zu nodded and felt that it was feasible, and immediately ordered his soldiers to shoot arrows at Dong Xi who was still screaming. Dong Xi was so frightened that he hurried back on his horse.

Seeing Dong Xi's distressed appearance, Pei Feng and the others immediately burst out laughing. Pei Feng said loudly: "How can you get into the eyes of General Dong with mere martial arts? I'm really scared, so I can only shoot at him with random arrows." , please forgive me please forgive me!"

"You! Damn it." How could Dong Xi not understand that Pei Feng was playing tricks on him, and immediately vomited blood angrily, wishing to tear Pei Feng up immediately.

"Humph! Siege" Zhou Yu's face was a little ugly. He wanted to lure Pei Feng out of the city and kill him, but now it seems that he can only attack by force.
