Chapter 237 Hongmen Banquet? The state pastoral mansion’s ambush is a bit useless! Villagers against Cao Cao!
The next day, the news from Xiangyang City intensified.
Duke Xuande became the new lord of Jingzhou, and Jingzhou, Yizhou, and Guanzhong were united together, which seemed to be a certainty.
Gan Ning hurried back to the post in the morning,
“My lord, I contacted several of my former colleagues last night, and they are all under Zhang Yun’s command as military commanders or school lieutenants. There are hundreds of people under him, and they all decided to be loyal to the lord.”
Liu Bei nodded,
“Okay, Xingba has worked hard, you should rest first, we will have a big battle soon!”
“promise!”
Pang Tong clasped his fists,
“My lord, plus the soldiers and horses controlled by the children of Huang, Pang, Ma, and Yang, in fact, we are no less controlled than Liu Biao.”
Liu Bei looked around for a week,
“How do you think Liu Biao will arrange it?”
Guo Jia thought for a while,
“My lord, Liu Biao’s strategy of arrogant soldiers must be to let us relax our vigilance. If I were Liu Biao, I would trick my lord into the state pastoral mansion, surround it with heavy troops, and then send troops to attack the posthouse and the barracks outside the city.”
Liu Bei was thoughtful,
“That is to say, the next time Liu Biao invites me over, it is likely to be a Hongmen banquet, or there is no banquet at all, and it will be a swordsman.”
“I’m afraid the person who will attack will be Liu Biao’s nephew and nephew.” Pang Tong was more radical.
“Liu Biao is unrighteous. The lord came to help him heal his illness, but he actually wanted to harm the lord. Why don’t we act first?”
Liu Bei shook his head,
“No, we have to strike later, so that we can accept Jingzhou smoothly and not fall into the shoes of others.” Guo Jia frowned,
“In this case, the lord is going to take risks at 21. The lord needs to pretend to be arrogant, relax his vigilance, wait for Liu Biao to make a move, and then strike back.”
“Our army brought in elites this time. Some people can disguise themselves and sneak into Pang’s and Huang’s houses as private soldiers, turning the situation around at critical moments.”
“The rest of the gentry’s children can also serve as internal responders, and fight back at critical moments”
In the next few days, Liu Bei threw a big banquet for many noble families in Xiangyang. During the banquet, he was drunk and looked very happy. Cai went to persuade Liu Bei not to drink too much, but was scolded and cried.
Liu Bei secretly encouraged Cai, who won the statuette, many times.
Liu Biao got the information, knew that it was almost done, and began to arrange, “This Mrs. Cai deserves it. Instead of marrying me, she will go to Liu Bei and be bullied!”
“Tomorrow night, tell me that I am suddenly seriously ill, and let Liu Qi lead Liu Bei to the state pastoral mansion immediately, so that he doesn’t think about the time, and then all arrows will be fired!”
Kuai Yue cupped his fists,
“My lord is wise, Liu Bei must be anxious to come to the State Shepherd’s Mansion to accept the seal, so naturally he has no precautions.”
Liu Biao coughed,
“You can discuss these things with Zhang Yun, I’m a little tired”
“It’s the lord”
Kuai Yue secretly scolded Liu Biao as an old fox, and then he would push it cleanly.
Zhang Yun dispatched troops and generals, but one of the school lieutenants and army Sima secretly joined Liu Bei.
Bai Yuekui spent a lot of money to infiltrate Jingzhou generals, which also played a role.
Zhang Yun has more or less descendants of noble families.
Zhang Yun is also an idiot, thinking he controls the army.
The deployment of the State Shepherd’s Mansion was basically known to Liu Bei verbatim.
Liu Bei began to secretly dispatch troops in the posthouse,
“Gan Xingba, you lead people to ambush on the only way Liu Pan leads his troops. Once Liu Pan arrives, you must shoot all arrows and kill him!”
“promise!”
“Pang Tong, Ma Chao, your leaders sneak in and pretend to be soldiers. You must open the city gate and let the soldiers and horses from outside the city enter the city.”
“promise!”
“Zhang Fei, Tai Shici, follow me to the state pastoral mansion!”
“promise!”
Liu Bei called Cai Mao again,
“What? The state shepherd intends to do something?”
Cai Mao turned pale with shock. He always thought that Liu Biao was seriously ill, and Liu Bei was certain to win Jingzhou. Who knew…
“Old man Liu Biao, you deceived me so badly!”
Cai Hao was dripping with cold sweat immediately, “Mr. Xuande, I really don’t know.” Liu Bei patted his shoulder,
“Liu Biao’s conspiracy this time is very big. He just wants to use you, Degui, to deceive me. He is hiding it from you. Naturally, he also wants to get rid of the Cai family together.”
Cai Mao gritted his teeth,
“Old man! Mr. Xuande, what should I do?”
“Liu Pan’s soldiers and horses are going to attack you, you just need to do this…”
Cai Mao nodded frequently, he had to do his best, Liu Biao wanted to get rid of Liu Bei, and he was naturally one of the targets, if not for Liu Bei’s reminder, maybe this time the Cai family would be uprooted by Liu Biao.
Thinking of this, Cai Mao’s forehead sweated, “Fortunately, XuanMr. De noticed…”
…at the same time,
Brothers Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan from Yexian County have also sent troops to Xiangyang! Cao Cao led the army to start from Xu County, followed closely behind!
Sun Ce’s 60,000 troops marched westward from Chaisang and began to raid Jiangxia Huangzu! …
Gao Shun, Ju Yi, Huang Zhong, Pang De, Gao Lan and others led 50,000 troops out of Wuguan and headed towards Xiangyang!
Zhuge Liang took Wang Ping, Guo Huai, and Yan Xing with 40,000 troops from Hanzhong to cross mountains and ridges to the junction where the Han River flows into the Nanyang Basin.
Wang Ping asked,
“Governor, are we going to Xiangyang?”
Zhuge Liang shook his head,
“No, our goal is Xinye City, Cao Cao has already dispatched troops!”
“My lord ordered me to be the commander in chief, join forces with Gao Shun, Ju Yi and others, and make sure to stop Cao Cao on the front line of Xinye!”
Zhuge Liang took out the bamboo slips for several people to watch, Zhuge Liang clasped his fists in the direction of Xiangyang,
“My lord has a lot of trust in me, this time I will definitely defeat Cao Jun”
Wei Yan of Padang has also moved eastward with Yang Fan, and will arrive at Jiangling in South County in a few days.
Nearly 300,000 soldiers and horses rushed in from the entire Jingzhou at once! …
Xiangyang City,
It was already late at night, the post house was still brightly lit, Liu Bei was still pulling Jingzhou’s gentry to drink, Liu Qi rushed over, crying,
“Mr. Xuande, my father has vomited a lot of blood, and he is very angry. Please go and have a look.”
Liu Bei praised secretly, Liu Qi’s acting skills can at least be nominated for an Oscar!
“Okay, I’ll go and see right away!”
The other gentry looked at each other,
“Could it be that the state shepherd is dying tonight?”
Zhang Fei, Tai Shici, Zhu Rong, Lu Lingqi, and Ma Yunlu mounted their horses one after another, and brought three hundred guards with them.
Liu Qi thought of the thousands of soldiers hidden around the State Shepherd’s Mansion, and didn’t think what these three hundred people could do.
“Da da da”
The dense sound of horseshoes resounded through the silent road, and Liu Bei and his party quickly rushed to the outside of the State Shepherd’s Mansion.
The location where Zhang Yun ambush is around the state pastoral mansion, and the dark places are full of Zhang Yun’s soldiers and horses holding bows and crossbows.
Liu Qi was about to enter the door quickly, but Liu Bei grabbed his arm, “Nephew, don’t worry, I’ll go in with you!”
Surprised, Liu Qi turned to look at Liu Bei, and found that his eyes were cold and filled with killing intent.
How could Liu Qi have experienced any battles? When Liu Bei saw it, his legs softened instantly, “Mr. Xuande…”
Liu Bei shouted loudly,
“Zhang Yun, don’t hide, you murdered me, brother Jing Sheng, and now you want to murder me, why hide your head and tail!”
Zhang Yun and Kuai Yue emerged from the small city wall of the State Shepherd’s Mansion together, “Whoo! Whoosh! Whoosh”
Nearly 2,000 crossbowmen appeared on both sides of the street, holding crossbows and facing Liu Bei and others!
Zhang Yun and Zhang Yun knew that the matter had been revealed, but at this time Liu Bei was already on the long street, with their soldiers on both sides, and it was almost certain that they would win.
Zhang Yun shouted,
“Liu Bei, what nonsense are you talking about? You plotted against me in Jingzhou. Tonight is your death day!”
Kuai Yue also said,
“Liu Bei, you plotted against me in Jingzhou, and you wanted to attack the State Shepherd’s Mansion. It is justified to be killed by us tonight!”
Liu Bei said coldly,
“Kuai Yue, I thought you were smart, but you are as stupid as a pig. You are not afraid of being ransacked and exterminated if you seek refuge with Cao Cao and seek Jingzhou!”
The history of Kuai Yueyuan is also to seek refuge with Cao Cao, and was moved to Xudu by his family. The Kuai family left the deep-rooted Nanjun and declined rapidly.
It can be said that once the Kuai family and Cai family in Jingzhou who had taken refuge in Cao Cao lost their use value, they would be left behind.
Cai Mao was even more miserable, his head was beheaded, and his two younger brothers also died 817!
Zhang Yun naturally knew about Kuai Yue’s defection to Cao Cao, but now is not the time to kill Kuai Yue.
Kuai Yue was shocked when he heard Liu Bei’s family copying and extermination, but remembering Cao Cao’s promise and importance to him, he shouted,
“Liu Bei, you intend to kill my lord, yet you dare to sow discord!”
“Quick, shoot him”
Zhang Yun snorted secretly, these soldiers are all under his command, how could they listen to Kuai Yue,
“Brothers, obey the order! Give me…”
“Swoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Before Zhang Yun finished speaking, there was a sound of piercing through the air, and countless arrows flew randomly!
“Whoo! Whoo! Whoo”
“Ah, ah!”
The guards and crossbowmen around Zhang Yun fell down! Zhang Yun was caught off guard and was also shot with an arrow!
“you!”
Only then did he realize that he seemed to be very unpopular, and most of his subordinates had rebelled!
Several captains shouted loudly,
“Listen, everyone, Zhang Yun and Kuai Yue defected to Cao Cao, harmed Zhou Mu, and wanted to hurt Xuande Gong. Zhou Mu has long stated that after his death, Xuande Gong will take Jingzhou!”
“Guard Xuande Gong, kill the rebels Zhang Yun and Kuai Yue!”
Liu Bei also shouted loudly,
“Everyone who kills the rebels Zhang Yun and Kuai Yue will be rewarded for a certain law!”
He shook his head secretly,
“This ambush is a bit useless”
Soldiers all worship the strong, not to mention the mighty Kyushu and invincible Liu Bei, most of them are instantly anyway!
Zhang Yunwu looked at the wound and shouted,
“Quick, quick, shoot Liu Bei!”
There are still dozens of arrows shooting towards Liu Bei!
“Clang! Clang! Clang”
The guards around Liu Bei frantically swung their knives and shot down the arrows.
Anyway, when the soldiers saw it, it was worth it! Zhang Yun dared to go against the sky!
“Swoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh”
A shower of arrows passed by, shooting down a piece of Zhang Yun’s personal guards!
Tai Shici also picked up his bow and set up an arrow, and the arrow was like thunder, directly hitting Zhang Yun’s neck who was still screaming!
Zhang Yunwu scratched his neck and fell backwards! Zhang Yun is dead! .
