The beginning of the Three Kingdoms Cheng Yuanzhi

Chapter 210 Luma: This pot is too heavy
Yecheng.

The top of the city is covered with white silk, and all the people are solemn.

The people on the stage were furious, and there were many guns off the stage.

On the stage of martial arts, Cheng Yuanzhi raised his long sword high and said sharply: "Gongsun Kang disobeyed the king's order and killed angels. I will defeat the rebels on behalf of the sky today and swear to defeat this thief!"

More than [-] soldiers in the audience responded in unison: "I swear to kill this thief... I swear to kill this thief..."

At the beginning of April, Cheng Yuanzhi personally led an army of 40, divided his troops into eight groups and rushed to Liaodong, and regained Liaodong in the name of avenging Agudo.

Liaodong has such a strong and disobedient force entrenched, making him feel like a light on his back, and he is unwilling to eat.

When the news spread to Xiangping in Eastern Liaodong, Gongsun Kang was shocked but not panicked. He had already foreseen the consequences after beheading Agudo, and had already begun to mobilize troops to resist the possible offensive from the Han court.

At this moment, Xiangping has 40 cavalry guards, and tens of thousands of navy troops are displayed in Yingkou (probably in Dalian) to support them, ready to attack the back of the [-] Han troops and cut off their food roads.

Gongsun Kang made two preparations for this battle. First, he planned to deal a head-on blow to the 40 invading enemies. It would be great if he could wipe out all the troops.

If he can't fight, he still has tens of thousands of sailors, who can flee east or south.

As early as the time of his father Gongsundu, dozens of large islands were discovered on the vast sea south of Yingkou. Over the years, tens of thousands of people have been arranged to live on the islands.

Even, the location of the Ryukyu Islands (Japan) was discovered.

It can be said that looking at the whole world, it is not the three princes in the south of the Yangtze River who have the most developed navy at the moment, but Liaodong.

The large continuous boat built in Liaodong is three hundred steps long, 120 steps square, and three feet high.Each ship can carry more than [-] people.Around the big ship is a wooden fence, with towers and watchtowers. There are four gates to enter and exit, and horses can ride on the ship.A bird-headed monster is painted on the bow of the ship to intimidate river gods and sea monsters. The scale and number of ships have never been seen since ancient times.

Liaodong was able to operate the Qingzhou Donglai various places across the sea for several years, all thanks to this navy.

The outside world only knows that there are [-] sailors in Liaodong, but they don't know that Liaodong has secretly trained [-] sailors over the years.

These more than a hundred large ships and [-] naval troops were Gongsun Kang's confidence.

In May, the two armies met in the field twenty miles west of Xiangping City. They didn't say anything nonsense. When they met directly, they fought repeatedly.

Gongsun Kang is from the Northeast, and the character of the Northeast people has always been capable of doing things and never beeping.

If you meet, you will do it hard. If you don't do it, you are not a good man!

In this battle, each side has hundreds of thousands of cavalry participating in the battle, and the combat power is almost the same.

However, there are more military generals in Hebei, and the cavalry will be centered on thousands of soldiers, and they will be divided into small groups, rushing left and right, killing big and special.

Gongsun Kang held the battle in person, but was still lost. He suffered repeated defeats, retreated from Liaodong to Yingkou, and defended the city with his back to the sea.

The battle situation was temporarily stalemate.

Cheng Yuanzhi sent troops to besiege the city on three sides, trapped Gongsun Kang in Yingkou, and divided his troops to take the other three counties.

the other side.

But it is said that since Liu Bei arrived in Jingzhou, Liu Biao has treated him very well.Arrange for it to be stationed in Xinye.

On this day, the two were gathering for a drink in Xiangyang, when someone reported that the surrendered generals Zhang Wu and Chen Sun had plundered the people in Jiangxia and conspired to rebel.

Liu Biao was startled and said, "The two thieves turned back after submitting. They are capricious and bring disaster to the whole country. What can we do?"

At this time Liu Biao was already sixty-three, he was very old and had lost his aggressiveness. In addition, his wife died last year, and his eldest son Liu Qi suddenly lost his support.The youngest wife, Cai, is in charge, and she and her youngest son, Liu Cong, are fighting for favor. Liu Biao has been devastated all day long, so he doesn't care about it.

This was also one of the reasons why he refused Cheng Yuanzhi's alliance to conquer Wu.

When Liu Bei heard this, he said with empathy: "You don't need to worry about me, brother, please go to Pingzhi."

Liu Biao was overjoyed, so he gathered [-] troops and handed them over to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei took the order, and the journey did not stop for a day. He led the army and Guan Zhangzhao to Jiangxia.

Upon hearing the news, Zhang Wu and Chen Sun led their troops and horses to meet them.

Zhao Yunting drew his gun and rushed straight towards the formation.Zhang Wu came to fight with his sword, but within three seconds, he was stabbed off his horse by Zhao Yun.

When Chen Sun saw him, he roared loudly and charged with his gun.

Zhang Fei also shouted loudly, rushed out with his spear, stabbed Chen Sun to death with one spear, and the rest of the crowd collapsed when they saw this.

Liu Bei issued a list to pacify the people, recruited the rest of the party, quelled the rebellion, and returned with his class.

From the expedition to the withdrawal, only half a month has passed.

Liu Biao heard the good news, went out of Guo to welcome Liu Bei into the city, and held a banquet to celebrate his victory.

After three rounds of wine and delicious food, Liu Biao praised: "Your brother is so talented, from now on I can rely on Jingzhou. However, the barbarians from South Vietnam come to invade from time to time, and Zhanglu in the northwest and Sun Quan in the east are all hidden worries."

Liu Bei drank a lot, got a little over the top, and boasted, "Don't worry, brother, it's not difficult. My brother has three generals, who can be appointed: Zhang Fei patrols the territory of South Vietnam to deter the barbarians; Guan Yu is stationed in Guzicheng, To suppress Zhang Lu; Zhao Yun rejects the Three Rivers, and helps Huang Zu to become Sun Quan, and I will live in Xinye and serve as a barrier for my brother in the north, how about it?"

Liu Biao was overjoyed when he heard the words, and was about to follow his words and arrange for Guan, Zhang and Zhao to be stationed in three places, when suddenly he heard a woman coughing and coughing in the inner room, so he fell silent.

In the inner room, Cai Mao said to his sister, Mrs. Cai: "Liu Bei wants to send three generals to live outside, and live in Xinye by himself. His scheme is very big, and it will cause trouble for a long time. My sister must investigate."

That night, Mrs. Cai blew the pillow wind to Liu Biao: "I heard that Jingzhou literati often have personal contacts with Liu Bei, so we must guard against it. It is useless to keep him living in the city. Why don't we send them back to Xinye to garrison to avoid death?" branch."

Although Liu Biao has soft ears, he will not blindly listen to the words of women and Taoists. Hearing the words, he defended Liu Bei and said: "The ancients said that appearance is born from the heart. I look at Xuande's face, talk and behave. This is a benevolent person. Your wife's way People, too suspicious."

Mrs. Cai said relentlessly: "Liu Bei is benevolent, but I'm afraid that other people may not be like this."

Liu Biao groaned and didn't answer, as if he had listened, Madam Cai stopped talking.

In the next few days, Liu Biao didn't mention the worries of Zhang Lu, Nanman, and Sun Quan any more, which made Liu Bei very depressed, but it was difficult to ask.

On this day, the two went out for an outing in the city. Liu Biao saw that the horse Xuande was riding was pure white and extremely handsome.Immediately praised.

Liu Bei then proposed to give the horse to Liu Biao.Liu Biao was overjoyed, accepted it readily, and rode back to the city swaggeringly.

The general Kuai Yue saw it in the city, and asked in surprise, "Where did you get this horse, my lord?"

Liu Biao replied casually, "This is a gift from Xuande."

Kuai Yue shook his head, and said bluntly: "My elder brother Kuai Liang was the best at looking after horses; the more we get along with him, the more he knows this way. This horse has tear troughs under its eyes and white spots on its forehead. It is named Lu , Riding will hinder the master, the master must not ride."

This is nonsense, and Liu Biao shouldn't believe it.

But the older this person is, the more superstitious he is, and the more cranky he is.Back at the mansion, the more Liu Biao thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and he always felt panicked.

The next day, Liu Biao invited Liu Bei to a banquet. After the banquet, he took Liu Bei's hand and said, "I thank you for the horse yesterday. I am very grateful. But I sit in the city all the year round, and I don't use it a few times a year. My brother Stationed in Xinye, we need to conquer the Quartet from time to time, this horse is suitable for use, and I will return this horse today."

Seeing Liu Biao's fear of avoiding the horse, Liu Bei knew that the former must have heard about Lu Ma's theory of impeding the Lord and believed it to be true.

Then he got up to thank him, and Lu, who took it back, planned to ride calmly every day to prove that the saying of "Lord Lu Huan" is nonsense.

But I heard Liu Biao say again: "Your brother has lived here for a long time, and he fears that military affairs will be abolished. The task of defending the north is not a trivial matter. I can quickly return to Xinye to garrison, how about it?"

Liu Bei was silent for a moment, then gladly accepted the order.Immediately bid farewell to Liu Biao and returned to Xinye.


As he was leaving the city gate, he saw a man blocking the road, clasped his hands in front of the horse and said, "The horse you are riding is unknown, so you cannot ride it."

Liu Bei looked at it and saw that it was Yi Ji, a guest of Jingzhou, so he hurriedly dismounted to greet him.

Yiji said: "Yesterday I heard that Kuai Yidu said to Liu Jingzhou: This horse is named Lu, if you ride it, it will hinder the master. Therefore, it is returned to the public. How can the public ride again?"

Liu Bei smiled and said, "Thank you sir for reminding us that life, death, wealth and honor depend on heaven, so what's wrong with this horse? Sir, you can't believe this rumor."

Yi Ji admired Liu Bei's high opinion, and saw that he was riding the horse calmly and elegantly.Since then, he has often communicated with Liu Bei.

After returning to Xinye, Liu Bei felt strange and frowned all day long.

Seeing this, Xu Shu came to ask why.

Liu Bei sighed: "I have been riding this horse for several years. Ever since the former military adviser said the words 'Lord Lu Huan', many people have followed suit recently. I don't know why?"

Xu Shu said with a smile: "Since my lord doesn't believe this rumor, why bother?"

After all, seeing the relieved look on Liu Bei's face, Xu Shu turned and said: "At this time, Yuan She's orthodox army is marching north, and the Central Plains is empty. It is the day when the land of Jingxiang is deeply in flames of war."

Liu Bei nodded and said yes, "I want to go to Xiangyang and tell Liu Biao to attack the north and seize the Central Plains as a means of saving himself. I don't know what the military commander wants?"

Xu Shu thought about it for a while, then sighed: "It's a good thing to give it a try now."

Liu Bei then set off to Jingzhou to talk to Liu Biao.

"Now that Yuan She is mobilizing troops to conquer thousands of miles to the north, the Central Plains is empty. If my brother uses Jingxiang's people to attack them in the meantime, great things will happen."
