"Kill!" Ji Ling shouted, ready to fight Gao Jin. The cavalry behind him was also ready to move and escape at any moment.
"Wait a minute!" Gao Jin looked calm and composed in the firelight, stopped Ji Ling and said: "Ji Ling, I heard that you are also a fierce general under Yuan Shu's army. I have a method that can make your head fall to the ground. Can you believe it?
"
Ji Ling sneered and stroked the restless war horse under his seat. He couldn't help but feel a desire to win. He drew his knife and said, "You dare to bully me, little thief?"
Gao Jin said loudly with a half-smile: "In that case, if you don't believe it, do you dare to shout three times on the horse, "Who dares to kill me?" You are a real man. I will dismount immediately and be bound. What do you do with it?"
Ji Ling laughed loudly and said, "Listen, kid! Xiudao barked three times in a row, and he barked 30,000 times. What's the problem?" Then he raised his knife and pressed the bridle, and immediately shouted, "Who dares to kill me?"
After that, a person behind his head responded sternly: "I dare to kill you!"
He raised the knife and lowered it, and a flying dragon flew across the night sky. The blade squeaked through the air and slashed straight into the back of Ji Ling's head. Before Ji Ling could react, his head flew off his horse and blood splattered everywhere.
The person who killed Ji Ling was none other than Li Feng, who had been following Ji Ling on horseback. When Li Feng heard Gao Jin's words, he immediately knew that this was the code given to him by Gao Jin. The moment Ji Ling laughed, he had already accumulated all the energy in his body.
He put a lot of force on his arm. Before Ji Ling finished speaking, he couldn't hold back the knife in his hand and shot it. He raised the knife and dropped it without any hesitation. It was extremely beautiful.
The cavalrymen brought by Ji Ling were all horrified. At this moment, the cavalrymen following Li Feng rushed out and slashed at Ji Ling's bodyguards. Gao Jin shouted in the distance: "Only remove the culprit."
, Ignore the rest, those who dismount their horses and put down their weapons will avoid death!"
Under the night sky, the sound of countless weapons falling to the ground resounded. In an instant, Ji Ling's personal guards were slaughtered. The rest of the people were already frightened. Seeing that the commander was killed, Li Feng rebelled and surrendered, and on the opposite side, they were sharpening their swords again.
Anyone among Lu Bu's cavalry who dared to act rashly fell off their horses and threw their weapons to the ground.
………………
In Donghai County, Liu Bei's army has passed through Xiangcheng and formed a horn formation with Sishui Pass and Yinping Lubu. Although Yuan Shu's army has a numerical advantage, the long-term siege has worn away too much determination. He is in a dilemma and can only besiege the city on one side.
, while sending people to confront Liu Beijun.
Yuan Shu was worried and was considering retreating. Suddenly he heard that Shouchun had come to report. Gao Jin made a surprise attack on Shouchun and killed Yuan Yin. After looting everything, he marched towards Hefei. Ji Ling led the army in pursuit and was beheaded and dismounted. The rest of the cavalry were all killed.
Surrender.
When Yuan Shu heard the news, his head was buzzing, a blood arrow spurted out, and he fell unconscious.
The generals in the tent were shocked and came to visit. At this time, Yuan Shu woke up and saw all the generals in the tent gathered around the bed. He couldn't help but burst into tears and said: "I have never been insulted like this in my life. Now I am a thief."
They plundered Shouchun, killed and captured all their relatives, and completely destroyed their ten-year inheritance!"
There was dissatisfaction on everyone's faces. Gao Jin went south and killed several generals including Lei Bo, Chen Lan, and Ji Ling. Yuan Shu only mourned his relatives, but did not mention a word about these generals who fought for him through life and death.
It's heartbreaking.
Yan Xiang said: "Don't worry, my lord, this matter can be discussed in the long term."
Yuan Shu said angrily: "My wife and brother were killed by him, and my beloved concubine was also kidnapped by him. How can we plan for the long term? Withdraw the army immediately and return to Shouchun. If I don't kill this thief, how can I face the world?"
Yan Xiang sighed and said: "My lord, I'm afraid this thief has escaped far away. If we don't urge the soldiers to attack Yinping again, what if..."
Yuan Shu shook his head: "No need to say more, I have no intention of fighting anymore and am preparing to withdraw immediately."
He bared his teeth and said, "I must avenge this. What can you do?"
Everyone was silent, Yan Xiang sighed, seemingly desperate, but also kept silent.
……………………
Yuan Shu's army retreated like a tide. At first, both Liu Bei and Lu Bu thought that Yuan Shu was cheating, so they did not dare to pursue them. After all, Yuan Shu still had the advantage at this time, and the strength of the two men was far behind him.
However, when all the camps were empty, they realized that Yuan Shu's army had really left. Lu Bu and Liu Bei's armies pursued them hard until they reached Shanyang Pass. Seeing that the pass was heavily guarded, they realized that Yuan Shu's army was far away and regretted it.
Lu Bu and Liu Bei were allies at the beginning, but later they turned against each other in order to compete for Jingzhou. Now they are fighting side by side. Naturally, they have temporarily abandoned their previous feud. The two armies returned together and met at Yinping Pass. Lu Bu personally hosted a banquet in honor of Liu Bei.
The army came to rescue him, which was the result of Gao Jin's personal talk. He thought highly of Gao Jin and asked, "I wonder where Gao Jin went?"
Liu Bei said: "How did Bei know that he led hundreds of cavalry as the vanguard? I only know that he defeated the Sishui Pass and defeated Qiaorui Camp, and then disappeared. I asked all the sergeants, and I only know that he led the army to
Went to Shanyang Pass."
Lu Bu frowned deeply and said, "In this case, Boluan is in danger." He was unhappy and full of worries.
When all the generals in the tent heard that Gao Jin had gone to Guangling and Shouchun County, they also knew that there would be bad luck there, and they all looked sad.
Liu Bei saw that Lu Bu was mentally weak and his face was pale, so he asked, "General, why does he look so evil?"
Lu Bu only said: "I'm just worried about Bo Luan." He said no more and continued drinking.
Liu Bei knew that it was not as simple as Lu Bu said. He nodded slightly and said with a smile: "General Gao Jin has God's help, and he will return safely. Don't worry, general."
He pretended to go to drink, and glanced at Chen Gong, who was sitting next to Lu Bu, with a pretense of inadvertence. Chen Gong looked at Lu Bu and kept winking.
Liu Bei seemed to understand a little bit, and deliberately persuaded Lu Bu to drink. Lu Bu also drank, and his face became even paler.
The banquet is over.
After Liu Bei paid the bill, he said to Guan Yu beside him: "Lü Bu is injured."
Guan Yu opened his eyes, flashing a sharp look, and said, "How do you know, brother?"
Liu Bei said with a smile: "Lu Bu is a dragon and a phoenix among men. When I first met him, I saw that he was in low spirits and his face was pale. Later he attributed it to Gao Jin, but he didn't know that he didn't know Gao Jin's whereabouts before that.
How can one be worried and cautious?
Later, I asked him to drink, but he drank very reluctantly. This person has always been a good drinker, but he drank very restrainedly today. He must have been seriously injured."
"Besides, can my second brother see the look Chen Gong gave to Lu Bu? Chen Gong is a famous person, and he is always calm and composed in situations. How could he be absent-minded today? Whenever Lu Bu drinks, he will turn his eyes to Lu Bu. From this point of view, Lu Bu has suffered
The injury must be serious."
Guan Yu said: "Since Lu Bu is injured, why does he still need to drink?"
Liu Bei smiled calmly: "It's just to guard against us. Lu Bu is very cunning. He is afraid that if we find out about his injury, the news will spread. Firstly, it will affect the morale of the army. Secondly, he is afraid that we will covet the East China Sea and go to Pi."
Guan Yu nodded.
Liu Bei said calmly: "Lü Bu is covering up like this. He really thinks that Liu Bei will take advantage of others' danger. Haha, we'd better return to Xiaopei as soon as possible."
Guan Yu closed his eyes and said, "Why not take the opportunity to occupy Xuzhou?"
Liu Bei said: "If Lu Bu doesn't die for a day, it's not appropriate for us to fight with them. Now that our army has come to rescue Lu Bu, Cao Cao will definitely be furious. The top priority is to guard against Cao Cao. As for Lu Bu, if he is really seriously injured and dies, I heard that his nephew
Lu Gu is just a mediocre person, are you afraid that there will be no chance by then?"
