The Legend of Pei Yuanqing of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 319 Li Tong

Li Tong, when Cao Cao attacked Yuan Shao, Cao Cao had few troops and food, because he led his troops to serve Cao Cao and replenished Cao Cao's troops in time, Cao Cao was greatly surprised, and immediately appointed Li Tong as the general who conquered the south.

Later, he was ordered to guard Runan, and he made great contributions, so he was transferred to this Wancheng town to guard.

Although Wancheng is small, its geographical location is extremely important. It is connected to Jingzhou. If the enemy drives straight from here, they may directly hit Xuchang, the capital of Cao Cao.

That's why Cao Cao took the lead in breaking through Zhang Xiu's Wancheng in the first place, so as to prevent Zhang Xiu from posing a great threat to his rear.

Therefore, the position of Wancheng guard must be guarded by someone with outstanding ability.

And Li Tong is the best candidate. He is brave in martial arts, and he has two lieutenants and five brave generals under his command.

These people all followed Li Tong to serve Cao Cao. They had deep feelings, so Cao Cao's adult beauty did not separate them.

Li Tong's two lieutenants are Chen Gong and Zhou Zhi, they are from the same county as Li Tong, they both know each other's bravery, so they agree with each other and sworn brothers.

And the five brave generals were the leaders of the bandits that Li Tong captured by exterminating bandits. Li Tong saw their superb martial arts skills, so he recruited them for his own use.

They are the Yellow Turban Marshal Wu Ba, the bandit leaders Qu Gong, Jiang Gong, Shen Cheng, and another bandit leader Zhang Chi who is entrenched in Peach Blossom Mountain.

The Yellow Turban Commander Wu Ba was entrenched on a mountain as a remnant of the Yellow Turban, but due to lack of food, he was forced to go down the mountain to plunder the county town. Li Tong happened to be in the county town, and quite a few followers followed him, so Li Tong led his brothers Zhang Gong and Zhou Zhi and thousands of people fought hard with Wu Ba.

Wu Ba is highly skilled in martial arts, and Li Tong spent a lot of effort to capture this person alive. Seeing his high martial arts skills, Li Tong wanted to recruit him for his own use, so he did not kill this person, but tried his best to persuade him to surrender. Wu Ba did not want to die either. , so he surrendered to Li Tong.

And Qu Gong, Jiang Gong, and Shen Cheng are members of a bandit gang. Qu Gong is the leader, Jiang Gong, and Shen Cheng are the deputy leaders. It is a relatively large bandit gang with thousands of members. people.

Li Tong is someone who wants to achieve great things, and he doesn't want to live in a small town, so after discussing with his sworn brothers, he attacked the cottages of Qu Gong, Jiang Gong, and Shen Cheng. He paid a lot of money, and finally Li Tong won. Gong and Shen Cheng fought bloody battles, but they were not opponents of Li Tong and others, so they had no choice but to abandon their weapons and surrender.

Li Tong was in need of talents, so he happily accepted their surrender.

Later, I heard the news that a group of bandits who fled here were entrenched in Taohua Mountain not far away.

Li Tong immediately led his troops to attack. Zhang Chi's tribe was not many, only more than [-] men. They were easily defeated by Li Tong. Zhang Chi fought bloody and almost escaped. Unfortunately, Wu Ba shot the horse, Zhang Chi fell off the horse and was killed The soldiers rushed forward and captured him alive.

"Brothers, Wu Ba has successfully infiltrated into the Fancheng army, and was reused by the general guard of Fancheng, and was appointed as the captain of the gatekeeper. Now everything is ready and only owes to Dongfeng. As long as we take down Fancheng and tell the lord, we will be a great achievement! Li Tong was in a good mood, and smiled at the generals seated below.

Zhou Zhi was overjoyed, and congratulated Li Tong, "My lord will definitely reward me a lot for taking down Fancheng. From now on, my lord's weight in my lord's heart will be greatly improved."

Zhang Gong also laughed and said, "That's right, then Cao Ren couldn't defend Fancheng, but elder brother was able to attack it, so don't my lord think highly of elder brother?"

"Hahaha, yes, as long as I take down Fancheng, not only me, but all brothers will benefit immeasurably!" Li Tong looked at everyone with a red face.

Qu Gong, Jiang Gong, Shen Cheng, and Zhang Chi also looked happy. Now that they have become officers, who would not want to be promoted?

This is a matter of Guangzong's glory, and a capable general has emerged from one branch, which is worth showing off.

Zhang Chi blinked, and said, "I don't know, general, which shareholder is this east wind?"

Such a question immediately aroused everyone's curiosity, only Zhang Gong and Zhou Zhi knew a little about the inside story.

The others are not confidantes, so they don't know exactly how Li Tong acts.

Shen Cheng and the others also looked deeply at Li Tong. This was related to the success of the attack on Fancheng. If it didn't go well, they might die.

Jingzhou is Liu Bei's territory, and Liu Bei is no longer what it used to be. Attacking his city will require paying a price.

Li Tong said with a smile, "Everyone don't have to worry, just wait a little longer. This Dongfeng will appear sooner or later. According to reliable sources, Guan Yu, the general in charge of Jingzhou, has already left Jingzhou. He will be replaced by General Pei Feng. You are very young, since you are young, you will definitely make mistakes, let me wait for the opportunity."

Qu Gong nodded deeply and said solemnly, "Attacking Fancheng is not a child's play. Fancheng must be taken down with a thunderbolt. Otherwise, once the enemy's rescue arrives, we will not only fall short of success, but will even suffer heavy losses. Therefore, we can only outsmart Fancheng and not attack it by force. !"

Jiang Gong also said seriously, "That's right, it's best if the Jingzhou generals don't have time to rescue them, or they are delayed by something, this will give us a chance"

"Delayed by something? For example, Zhuge Liang's big banquet? Birthday celebration? Marriage? Or Liu Bei from Yizhou reported the banquet and invited all the generals to go to Jingzhou Kongkong?" Li Tong said with a frown.

Shaking his head, he felt that there would be no such a coincidence, but he still ordered Zhou Zhi to say, "Does the eyeliner you planted in Jingzhou have any important information?"

Zhou Zhi thought for a while and shook his head, "It's all insignificant things, nothing major happened."

Li Tong was a little disappointed, and ordered, "Continue to ask them to inquire about the news. If there is any important information, be sure to report it as soon as possible."

"Yes, big brother." Zhou Zhi nodded.

"Remember to keep it secret, don't say anything, if the news leaks out, we will all fall short." Li Tong left the meeting hall after finishing speaking.

Qu Gong, Jiang Gong, Shen Cheng, and Zhang Chi all looked at each other, their eyes were a little erratic, obviously not very optimistic about the attack on Fancheng.

But Li Tong is the general, they can only obey orders.

Zhou Zhi and Zhang Gong saw all this and sneered in their hearts. These four people are just the lackeys of the eldest brother. If they are not useful, they can be used as vanguard cannon fodder, how could the eldest brother keep them.

Hmph, big brother kindly promotes them, not only ungrateful to repay them, but also unwilling, it's really hard to change a thief, a thief is a thief.

. . . . .

Pei Feng returned to Jingzhou and rested at home for a few days, but he was very worried these days.

Because he didn't know how to speak about Wu Yi's sister.

Speak up, I feel a little sorry for Mi Huan, if I go out casually and bring a woman back, can I still go out in the future?
Why don't you open your mouth? It's hard for Wu Yi to explain. After all, the Wu family is a famous family. If they break their trust, the Wu family doesn't hate Pei Feng to death?

What's more, the lord is in charge of Yizhou, and the Wu family needs the cooperation of the big family. In the future, it will be beneficial to recruit troops and food.

After thinking about it, Pei Feng became more and more troubled, so he could only stay in the yard alone and drink away his worries.

Occasionally, Tu Haifa came over to drink and chat with him. Mi Huan knew that Tu Haifa was a captain promoted by Pei Feng, so he didn't feel strange.

　Thank you for the song in my wind, the one thousand reading coins rewarded by Brother Feng, thank you for your support, thank you very much, your support is my motivation.
