"You are cheating on military law and being arbitrary, and you will be defeated sooner or later." Pang Yuan shouted behind Liu Zhang, and all the Sichuan soldiers looked at him with resentment.
"It's okay for me to act arbitrarily," Liu Zhang said, and got into the car. Yan Yan raised his sword and shouted, "Let's move on, keep marching."
The army marched, and the sound of wheels on the ground was endless. Pang Yuan shook the copper coins in his hand and said to himself with a smile: "I am decisive in situations, not following the rules, but too headstrong. It doesn't matter. My uncle ordered me to take responsibility for you again." Just be a soldier for a while, and when you are defeated by Xu Yuanzhi, you will naturally come to beg me, hahaha."
An excited smile appeared on Pang Yuan's face. The soldier next to him looked at him with disdain, looked at Pang Yuan with disgust and whispered to his companions: "You're crazy."
Liu Zhang and Fazheng sat across from each other in the carriage. After being outside for a while, they felt even more depressed. Liu Zhang could not let go of the military-related issues for a long time, so he rested lightly against the wall of the carriage.
Fa Zhengdao: "My lord, I think this Pang Yuan is quite a talent. Why don't your lord recruit him?"
Liu Zhang said feebly: "I naturally know that he is not as simple as a soldier. There are many scholars in Jingxiang and Xiang, and maybe Pang Yuan is one of them. But these so-called scholars are all arrogant and come from wealthy families. If they don't become my enemy, I will burn them." I'm so popular, but I still expect them to be loyal to me?
Besides, my behavior just now obviously did not satisfy Pang Yuan. If I invite you rashly and it causes resentment, it is better to wait for a while and I will send someone to keep an eye on Pang Yuan."
Fazheng nodded.
Liu Zhang unconsciously thought of Yun Mengze. Jingzhou was really a place where hermits were born. Huangfu Xuan, Zhuge Ci, and the unknown woman in white. Every time Liu Zhang encountered difficulties and difficulties, he would think of them. Those five words carved in the bamboo house, every time I think of those five words, I can't help but think of the woman in white.
I don’t know if her revenge has been taken.
Liu Zhang thought sadly, suddenly frowned, propped up his body and said to Fa Zheng: "Xiaozhi, speaking of Jingxiang scholars, we really need to be careful when we go to Jingbei this time. As far as I know, although Liu Biao's men are all mediocre in intelligence, There are many talented people in the countryside of Jingbei. Zhuge Liang in Longzhong is second to none, and Xu Shu in Yingchuan..."
"Report." At this moment, a horse galloped up: "Report to my lord, General Zhang Ren was severely defeated by Xu Shu, Liu Biao's new military advisor at Niujiakou. He lost countless troops and was returning in defeat. Please send troops and horses quickly to meet him." "
Liu Zhang and Fazheng looked at each other, really afraid of something.
Lei Tong's cavalry broke out, and tens of thousands of troops marched faster. The black flag with Liu characters formed a long dragon in cloth coats. On a hill, two slim women looked down the mountain at the Xichuan army.
A woman is dressed in white, holding a long sword in her hand, and her eyes are flashing with hatred. A woman is dressed in yellow, holding a mugwort in her hand, closing her eyes and praying to the sky, curling her lips for a while and stamping her feet for a while.
"Why are you standing here?" The woman in white suddenly turned around and said to the woman in yellow.
The woman in yellow put the withered mugwort in her hand into a small bag, glanced at the woman in white, and said loudly: "Does this mountain belong to your family? You can stand on it, but I can't?"
"Boring." The woman in white raised her sword and turned around, walking away along the ridge.
The woman in yellow snorted at the back of the woman in white, and became extremely frustrated again. She clapped her hands and said, "What should I do? I figured I would meet him when I went to Jiangling, so I waited until he left Jiangling before I dared to cross the river. Now What should I do if I meet him again when I go to Xiangyang? Don’t you want to attend sister Yueying’s wedding? Damn Liu Zhang.”
…………
"Take Zhang Ren."
Zhang Ren tied his hands, stepped into the tent, knelt down in front of Liu Zhang, bowed his head and said: "The last general is incompetent and lost his troops. I have betrayed the lord's trust, and I am willing to accept the death penalty."
Zhang Ren prostrated himself on the ground, Liu Zhang sat on the main seat, Xiao Furong stood behind him, Fazheng fumbled on the map with an oil lamp, Liu Zhang wrote the word "Xu Shu" on the silk with a brush, and took a look
, raised his head and looked at Zhang Ren.
Liu Zhang said calmly: "If you want to die, don't be in a hurry. Let me first tell you how you were defeated."
Zhang Ren straightened up and said angrily: "The general led an army of 30,000 as the vanguard and encountered an ambush by Jingzhou soldiers at Niujiakou. However, there were not many Jingzhou soldiers. The general fought his way out and occupied Niujiakou, but right at the Niujiakou
At this time, the Jingzhou soldiers were letting out smoke at the intersection, and the cattle gap was narrow. Our army was completely covered by the smoke. We fought with the Jingzhou soldiers for a while, and then retreated to Xiangjiang River. Just as we were washing our faces with the river water, the river suddenly surged, and the entire army
There was chaos, and the Jingzhou army took advantage of the situation to rush out. Our army..."
Liu Zhang interrupted Zhang Ren impatiently, "What's the ambush, smoke and water? I'm confused when I hear it. Let me tell you directly, how many men and horses were lost?"
"Eight thousand to ten thousand."
"That's ten thousand."
Liu Zhang stood up from his seat, walked up to Zhang Ren in a few steps, looked at Zhang Ren who was all tied up, pointed at him and said loudly: "Do you remember what I said to you when you went to war? Although Jingbei
It's empty, but you must not be careless. This is your first time leading troops since you became a general. I don't want the generals to see an incompetent general.
But look at what you are like now, are you imitating Lianpo? Not only did you lose the war, you also lost your morale, your confidence, and your soul as a general. You are still the general of our Sichuan Army, and I am
The first general under Liu Zhang?"
Liu Zhang screamed loudly, which shook his eardrums. The entire general in the tent was shocked. Fa Zheng's hand shook, and the oil in the oil lamp almost spilled out. He looked back at Liu Zhang and started groping on the map again.
"The general is incompetent and I am ashamed of my lord. I am willing to die to apologize."
Zhang Ren bowed heavily to the ground and made a "bang" sound when his forehead hit the hard soil.
"Coward." Liu Zhang uttered two words coldly, walked back to the desk and sat down, raised his head and said: "Zhang Ren, please remember, all soldiers will remember, victory and defeat are common in military affairs, and there is no shame in losing once.
, I don’t care if I lose 10,000 soldiers and horses, but you can’t lose the war and lose people at the same time. This is the most shameful thing.
Look at you, Zhang Ren, in such a miserable state. You are a bereaved dog. After a battle, you seek death and survival. Coward, what you should do, what you should think, and what you should express to me is to use the sword in your hand to wash away your shame today.
, take off Xu Shu’s child’s head, do you understand?”
"The general will understand." Liu Zhang cursed for a while, Zhang Ren's blood rushed to his face, and he gritted his teeth and said loudly.
"Do you understand?" Liu Zhang raised his head and looked at the other generals.
Yan Yan, Gao Pei, Samoko and other generals bowed down together: "The general will finally understand."
The atmosphere in the entire big tent was solemn.
Liu Zhang turned his head and said to Fa Zheng, who was looking at the map: "Don't look at it. The army will rest for the night and will send troops to Xiangnan tomorrow. The whole army will be divided into three columns and seven pairs. They will march in sequence, and the cavalry will be connected. Anyone who dares to advance will be killed."
Liu Zhang was also afraid of water and fire.
"Yes." All the generals bowed down and returned to their armies to prepare for battle.
Liu Zhang's thumb crossed the words "Xu Shu" on the silk: "You are also considered one of the best among the hermits in Jingxiang. Then I, Liu Zhang, will come to meet you for a while to see if you monsters are really invincible."
