Chu Fang used a halberd to cut off Liu Pan's head, and blood instantly gushes out from the broken neck like a fountain. Liu Pan, who had lost his head, could no longer maintain his kneeling position, and his body fell heavily into the stagnant water.
As soon as Liu Pan died, Ou Xiong, who had been hiding in the crowd, immediately reappeared. He walked up to Liu Pan's head, kicked it with his feet, and said in a hateful voice: "You bitch slave! Just now, one mouthful of 'dead soldiers', one mouthful
A 'dead dog', look who is dead now?"
Chu Fang showed a look of hesitation. Previously, in order to escape Liu Pan's pursuit, Ou Xiong used his close associates as a shield. Now that Liu Pan died, he jumped out and insulted the opponent's corpse. What he did was really disgusting.
Seeing Chu Fang's displeasure, Ou Xiong realized that his behavior might have offended him. He had grudges with Liu Zong, Cai Sheng, Ma Zhou and others, and he must not offend Chu Fang again, otherwise Liu Jing's men would be killed again.
There is no place for him.
In fact, the two had known each other for a long time. When Ou Xiong was a boy, he admired Chu Fang's name and personally went to Lingxian County to visit each other. However, the two were completely different in terms of personality, personality, background, etc., so they never interacted with each other again.
Ou Xiong felt a little regretful that he was so arrogant that he didn't lower his body and make friends with Chu Fang. Now it's too late for him to make friends with Chu Fang.
Ou Xiong bent down and picked up Liu Pan's head, handed it to Chu Fang, and thanked him: "Thank you very much, Brother Chu, for your help. I am deeply grateful..."
Chu Fang nodded slightly and said, "You don't have to be polite. Since you are sincerely loyal to Liu Jun, you and I are our colleagues. If you are in danger, I will naturally not stand by and watch."
Chu Fang then threw Liu Pan's head to the commander beside him and said: "Immediately inform the Northern Army that Liu Pan is dead, and those who surrender will not be killed..."
"Nuo." Commander Qu hung Liu Pan's head on the edge of his spear, raised it high, and rushed toward the Northern Army retreating deep into the camp. He shouted loudly: "Liu Pan is dead, and those who surrender will not be killed."
…”
On the way, Liu Jingjun and Changsha soldiers heard the shouting, and their momentum became more powerful. They all shouted: "Liu Pan is dead, and those who surrender will not be killed..."
Originally, Deng Fang, the military governor, was able to restrain his troops by relying on his personal prestige. However, when the soldiers heard that Liu Pan was dead, they lost their morale. Once the situation collapsed, they all asked to surrender.
Deng Fang couldn't help but let out a long sigh and said to those around him: "I am a mediocre person who was entrusted by the general to oversee the army. Now that the entire army has been wiped out, I really have betrayed the general's trust. Now that the matter has come to this, there is nothing more to say, except for the sake of death."
"After saying this, Deng Fang rushed towards Liu Jingjun on the opposite side with his halberd.
Deng Fang was a man of great perseverance and great prestige, and more than thirty people on his left and right followed him into the battle.
Since Liu Jingjun entered the camp, he has encountered enemies who are either invincible or kneeling to surrender. He has never experienced a fierce battle, so the soldiers are inevitably a little arrogant. During the pursuit, their formations were loose, and they suddenly encountered Deng Fang and others who were determined to die.
I was immediately caught off guard.
Deng Fang and others risked their lives and rushed into Liu Jing's army, making them invincible.
Seeing only dozens of people on the other side, he killed his own people to the point where they were in a state of panic. Cai Sheng was so angry that his face was livid. If he allowed them to continue making trouble like this, he would lose all face. Cai Sheng immediately led his personal guards and went straight to the front.
They formed a formation and bumped head-on into Deng Fang's group.
Deng Fangnai was from a wealthy family in Nanjun. He was talented in both civil and military affairs, but he was not a general who was good at charging into battle. Although he killed many enemies during the fierce battle, he himself was wounded more than ten times and was already at the end of his strength.
Cai Sheng was originally a brave general with the highest level of the Third Army. When faced with Deng Fang, who was at the end of his powerful crossbow, he was naturally able to catch him. He suddenly got close and cut off Deng Fang's right arm with a single blow.
Suddenly experiencing the pain of a broken arm, Deng Fang's eyes were bloodshot and he roared repeatedly. He held the halberd with his left hand and swept it towards Cai Sheng's waist.
Deng Fang had both hands, but Cai Sheng was not afraid, not to mention that the opponent only had one arm left. He easily swung away the halberd with his knife, then stabbed with the knife, and the blade instantly penetrated Deng Fang's throat.
"Ahem..." Deng Fang couldn't help spitting blood from his mouth, and grabbed the blade of the knife with his trembling left hand.
"Engage in..."
There were still seven people from Deng Fang's tribe who were still alive, and they all went crazy to kill Cai Sheng. However, there were enemies from all directions, and only two of them managed to get in front of Cai Sheng.
Deng Fang died with anger in his eyes. Cai Sheng slowly pulled the knife out of his throat and looked at the two loyal men in front of him. Suddenly, the sword flashed and two heads rose into the air.
"This man was a loyal and brave man, and his body should not be insulted." Cai Sheng slowly put the knife into its sheath, looked at Deng Fang who was still staring at death, and decided not to take his head and leave his body intact.
"No." All the soldiers around him responded.
Following the deaths of Liu Pan and Deng Fang, the sporadic resistance of the Jingzhou Army also disappeared. Thousands of soldiers abandoned their troops, disarmed themselves, and knelt down to surrender.
Liu Pan and Deng Fang were both dead, and the news of the surrender of the Northern Army soldiers spread back to the rear. Liu Jing turned to look at Lai Gong and said with a smile: "Lai Jun, how about it? I won."
It turned out that the two made a bet before the war began, and Liu Jing believed that he would be able to capture the fortress today.
Lai Gong held a different opinion. He believed that Liu Pan, as Liu's cousin and nephew, would definitely not surrender to Liu Jing and would definitely fight to the end. He held the fort with thousands of soldiers under his command and sufficient grain. Even though he was currently in a desperate situation,
, if you keep it for three to five days, it won’t be a problem at all.
"Zhongda has Ou Xiong and Changsha soldiers as internal support, so he is sure to win." Lai Gong paused for a moment before asking, "Zhongda, when did Ou Xiong secretly seek refuge with you? Don't you have a grudge?
?”
Liu Jing said slowly: "Uncle Ou Yuan took refuge with me three days ago. As for the grudges between us, they are personal grudges, and the Northern Army is a national grudge. When Changsha is in crisis, we will naturally turn into enemies.
Friends, we should be consistent with the outside world."
Lai Gong couldn't help but sigh: "Our army has the hidden danger of Ou Xiong. Even without this flood, the future situation will not be optimistic."
Liu Jing said energetically: "Both floods and Uncle Ou Yuan are not in my plan. However, even without these, I still have full confidence in repelling the Northern Army."
Lai Gong secretly thought: "Zhongda is really arrogant..." Facing the overwhelming army of Jingzhou, Liu Jing dared to say that he would win in a mere county. Apart from him, no one in the world dared to say so brazenly.
Already.
Lai Gong's relationship with Liu Pan was average. When he learned that he died in the battle, he didn't have much emotion, but he felt deeply sorry for Deng Fang's death.
As the first commander-in-chief of the Shu Han Dynasty, Deng Fang was also a relatively important figure. Unfortunately, he died prematurely and did not achieve any feats that attracted the world's attention, so he was not officially passed down. Liu Jing did not know who Deng Fang was at all, so he heard that he
There was no response when his name was called.
From Lai Gong's mouth, Liu Jing learned that Deng Fang had a calm temperament, valued justice over wealth, and had high prestige in the military. Liu Jing couldn't help but say "a pity", but that was all.
