Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

Of course, the reason for this situation is also because Li Jue didn't really contribute to Li Yi, otherwise he would threaten the officials with his life, insisting that Li Yi be the general who conquered the South, and those old guys in the court want to choose between face and life. , will definitely choose the latter.

However, because of Li Jue's suggestion, the filth between Li Yi and Liu Biao was inevitably discussed in the courtroom. This time, no one targeted Li Yi again. After all, he was assassinated by Liu Biao several times. Bear with it, it's really not easy.

In the end, although the court didn't come up with any proper regulations against Yuan Shu, they were going to issue an imperial decree to reprimand Liu Biao, and then let him resist Yuan Shu with all his strength to make up for his mistakes.

But just as the edict was about to be issued, the latest news from Jingzhou arrived, with mixed results.

Zhang Yun defeated Ji Ling, and Liu Biao asked for credit for Zhang Yun.

Yuan Shu donated [-] soldiers to Cao Cao, and there seems to be some secret relationship between the two.

Therefore, the imperial court withdrew Liu Biao's reprimand and changed it to reward and encouragement, and he was not stingy about Zhang Yun's title as Marquis, so he agreed.

But for Cao Cao, there are various opinions in the court, but there is still no conclusion, so it dragged on like that

The world is turbulent, and Li Yi, who is the main promoter of this situation, is sighing in the prefect's mansion at this time.

Zhang Yun defeated Ji Ling, and won consecutive battles. When Li Yi got the news, he was much more shocked than those in Jingzhou.

Li Yi is a time traveler. Although he doesn't have much impression of Zhang Yun in the serious history, he has read too many fan works. It seems that Comrade Zhang Yun has never won a battle in his life. He is either a clown or an experience point for the protagonist. This time even The car overturned Ji Ling twice, which can be called against the sky, wouldn't Li Yi be surprised?

Until Li Yi got the information from the front line, and the gossip Wenpin got from the army, and the two sides confirmed it, Li Yi could only sigh with emotion that this is okay!

In fact, when Zhang Yun got Liu Biao's order to lead troops to help Jiang Xia, Zhang Yun was in vain.

Don't get me wrong, Zhang Yun is not cowardly, because he has self-knowledge.

With Ji Ling blocking the way nearby and Zhang Xun's army besieging the city far away, he asked Zhang Yun to take more than 1 people to rescue Anlu. Zhang Yun really didn't have that confidence.

However, the military order cannot be violated, and it was his uncle who ordered it. Zhang Yun probably guessed what Liu Biao was thinking, so he could only bite the bullet and set off on the road resolutely.

Because Zhang Yun had the idea of ​​"unbeatable" at the beginning, Zhang Yun was extra cautious when marching on the road, and was afraid of being blocked by Ji Ling who didn't know where, so Zhang Yun selected three thousand people who were relatively distant from the army, and let them go The water route was the first to attract potential enemies, while he led a large force along the land route and headed south cautiously.

Then, by coincidence, Zhang Yun's scouts found a Yangzhou army marching northward. It was the team delivering things to Cao Cao, and it was also under Ji Ling's command.

This Yangzhou army received news before that the reinforcements from Nanyang had already arrived behind them by water, thinking that there would be no danger ahead, so they were very careless when marching. They didn't want to bump into Zhang Yun's army suddenly. So the general of the Yangzhou army decided to cut off his tail to survive, leaving a thousand people and a small amount of luggage to stop Zhang Yun, and the large army began to flee.

After picking up a victory in vain, Zhang Yun became more courageous. Knowing that those who escaped had more weapons, he naturally would not let them go, so he led the army to chase after him. As for the Yangzhou Army, Ji Ling came to reinforce after hearing the news, but In a hurry, Ji Ling didn't bring too many people, but Zhang Yun's soldiers and horses had just won the battle, their morale was high, and they bullied the few with more, so the second confrontation, Zhang Yun won again, Ji Ling was defeated and fled.

Zhang Yun's two consecutive victories were achieved in this way. After Li Yi understood Zhang Yun's good luck, he also reminded himself that there are too many decisive factors in the battlefield, and it is not whoever has the biggest fist wins. It's decided, in the future I will be in command, and I must not despise the other party just because he is not a famous general, otherwise God knows if he will be overthrown by someone like Qu'a young general.

Li Yi was still feeling emotional, but suddenly he heard laughter coming from around him, and when he looked up, it was Guo Jia who was having fun, so he couldn't help asking, "Why is Feng Xiao laughing?"

Guo Jia replied: "Jia is laughing at the fact that the sky does not bless Liu Biao. Originally, Jia estimated that Jiang Xia might last for more than a month, but now it is, hehe."

Li Yi didn't quite understand Guo Jia's meaning, so he stared at him. Guo Jia gave a dry cough and stopped being a joke, explaining to Li Yi: "The reason why Ji Ling lost to Zhang Yun is certainly due to luck, but in the final analysis However, Zhang Yun was always cautious and Ji Ling underestimated the enemy and was careless. Even without the burden of that batch of weapons, it would be difficult for the two to please Ji Ling when they confronted each other."

Li Yi suddenly thought to himself that when Ji Ling rushed to help, if he could calm down, don't underestimate Zhang Yun and take the army with him. Seeing the army recover the place, and even eat up Zhang Yun's support army in one go, it seems that Ji Ling was indeed wrong.

Guo Jia continued: "This battle can indeed boost the morale of Jingzhou, and it is reasonable to publicize it, but Liu Biao should not ask for credit for Zhang Yun. First, this will make other generals in Jingzhou feel dissatisfied. Second, It also made Zhang Yun a thorn in Yuan Shu's side, a thorn in his flesh, if it is not bad, Yuan Shu would rather slow down the siege of Anlu, and must gather elite troops to take down Zhang Yun's army!"

Li Yi nodded approvingly, and looked at Guo Jia with admiration. Although he didn't think of the first question for a while, he felt somewhat in his heart, but he didn't think of the latter point at all.

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "Liu Biao praised Zhang Yun too much, as if Jingzhou's safety is already tied to Zhang Yun. If Zhang Yun has integrity and Li Mu's talent, he can naturally become the pillar of Jingzhou, but Zhang Yun is no more than a middle-class man. However, Liu Biao let him shoulder such a heavy responsibility, it is tantamount to sending Zhang Yun to the gate of hell!"

"Jia asserted that Zhang Yun will be defeated within ten days, and if Zhang Yun is defeated, Liu Biao's previous words of encouragement will not only fail to cheer up the soldiers of Jingzhou, but will become more depressed, and Anlu will bear the brunt of it. Yuan Shu only needs to attack fiercely. It's time to fight!"

Listening to Guo Jia's analysis, Li Yi couldn't help but think of the "ten victories and ten defeats" that Guo Jia told Cao Cao in the original history. He really appreciated Guo Jia's vision and predicted it. His heart moved and he asked: "Bong The filial piety is really powerful, how about a bet between you and me?"

Guo Jia smiled and cupped his hands and said, "My lord, please tell me."

Li Yi said with a smile: "If Zhang Yun is defeated within ten days, you will serve as a military adviser this time when you go south, and after the matter is completed, you will also be given the title of Marquis, how about it?"

Guo Jia immediately bowed to Li Yi: "My lord is generous, so Jia will not be polite."

Li Yi laughed, and was about to help Guo Jia up. At this time, Jia Xu hurried in from the door, looked at Guo Jia with some doubts, and then said to Li Yi: "My lord, I just heard the news from Jiangxia. Yun was ambushed by Ji Ling during his march, Zhang Yun was defeated, and the entire army was wiped out!"

Li Yi opened his mouth slightly when he heard the words. Although he knew that Guo Jia's inference must be good, he never thought that Zhang Yun's defeat would come so quickly!

Guo Jia was not surprised by this at all, and stroked his beard with a little pride.

Li Yi took a deep breath and asked, "Since the defeat, what about Zhang Yun?"

Jia Xu replied: "Zhang Yun was captured alive by Ji Ling, and Ji Ling took him to Anlu, and then asked Yangzhou soldiers to change into Jingzhou soldiers' clothes, and used Zhang Yun's identity to swindle and open the gate of Anlu City. When the news spread, Anlu's four gates had already lost two of them, and the fall of the city was a foregone conclusion!"

Chapter 389 Isn't It Beautiful

If it is said that Yuan Shu became king, sending troops to attack Jiangxia would be a shock.

Then, the capture of Zhang Yun, the fall of Anlu City, and the defeat of Huang Zu were all the torrential rain after the thunderstorm, which completely chilled people's fearful hearts.

As Guo Jia said, after the latest news about Jiangxia spread, the morale in Xiangyang City that was originally boosted by Zhang Yun was directly beaten back to its original shape. No, it should be said that it was worse than before. The efficiency of Qingzhuang is much lower than that at the beginning.

And not only ordinary people and soldiers, but even those officials panicked at this time, they could no longer maintain their calmness in the past, and some even prepared to seek refuge in Yizhou

Under such circumstances, finding someone responsible for the defeat on the front line has become an inevitable situation.

Some people deduced that Zhang Yun's previous victories were likely to be deliberately let him win by Ji Ling.

It has to be said that no matter when, people like to judge heroes by success or failure. Not to mention that Zhang Yun's previous achievements were wiped out, he became a fool and a sinner in the eyes of all Jingzhou people in a blink of an eye.

However, compared to Zhang Yun who didn't know his life or death, Liu Biao was definitely the one who was hit the hardest in Xiangyang City at this time.

It was Liu Biao who insisted on Zhang Yun leading the army at the beginning, and he even held Zhang Yun high after winning the first victory, but now that Zhang Yun fell heavily, Liu Biao naturally fell to pieces like an egg, losing all face.

Even Liu Biao couldn't help resenting Zhang Yun in his heart.

If you lose, you will lose, so you will die to protect your loyalty, why should you be captured alive, otherwise Anlu would not have fallen so quickly.

I don't know if it was because he was stimulated too hard, or because Liu Biao's body couldn't bear it anymore. After the news of Zhang Yun spread, Liu Biao thanked the guests behind closed doors, and he didn't see anyone until the envoy of the emperor arrived. Liu Biao didn't open the door to greet him, but just listened to the commendation in the imperial decree. Liu Biao felt that every word in the imperial decree was like a slap on the face, which was unnatural.

The envoy of the Son of Heaven on the opposite side was also very embarrassed. He never thought that Zhang Yun would be finished just as soon as his reward was delivered. This lost not only Liu Biao's face, but also the face of the Son of Heaven!

So, after some urging from the angel, Liu Biao could no longer claim to be sick, so he forcibly cheered up, called everyone to discuss countermeasures, and then let Zhang Hu lead [-] troops to garrison Yicheng, and Huang Zhong led [-] troops to garrison Liqiu. They must delay Yuan Shu's steps.

At the same time, Liu Biao also lowered his face and began to ask for help from all quarters, especially the imperial court. Liu Biao bluntly said that the Yuan thief was powerful and Jingzhou could not support it alone. It is also very difficult. For a long time to come, the situation in Jingzhou may still depend on Liu Biao himself

The meaning of the angel made Liu Biao very desperate, but fortunately for Liu Biao, Zhang Xun's army did not march in one go after Yuan Shu arrived at the front line probably because of some damage under Anlu City. Unite soldiers and horses to clear other places in Jiangxia, so as to eliminate worries for the future attack on Xiangyang.

In this way, Jingzhou temporarily entered a kind of extremely tense calm, but Nanyang, where Li Yi is located, seemed to be completely unaffected by the situation, and still went its own way, leisurely and leisurely. Only a little change occurred in the prefect's mansion, that is, Li Xianghou also imitated Liu Biao's appearance a few days ago and began to thank guests behind closed doors.

As for the reason, it was because Liu Biao's envoy came again, still from Iraq, and Li Yi was still invited to send troops.

When Yiji came last time, although Li Yi made things difficult for Yiji for a while, the two parties finally reached a consensus, but Liu Biao refused to admit it, making their efforts all in vain.

Therefore, this time Yiji came to the door again, Li Yi did not make things difficult for Yiji, but directly stated his attitude, no see!
