Zhang Hu frowned deeply and said: "Boss, Yuan Shu's unexpected troops blocked our way five miles away. No matter what his purpose was, he came well prepared. However, we rushed over from Hanzhong without any warning.
There is no news about Yuan Shu, so it will be difficult to defeat Yuan Shu in a short time."
After a pause, Zhang Hu continued: "I think the most important thing at the moment is to find out how many troops Yuan Shu has. After figuring out the distribution of Yuan Shu's troops, we can then consider how to deal with Yuan Shu."
Lu Meng took a deep breath, nodded and said: "You are right, let's check Yuan Shu's situation first!"
After finishing speaking, Lu Meng immediately called for the scout and asked the scout to find out the news about Yuan Shu.
…
When Lu Meng and Yuan Shu were confronting, a group of soldiers appeared outside Shangyong City. There were only more than 600 soldiers. These soldiers were dressed in the clothes of Yizhou soldiers, trotting all the way, and quickly approached Shangyong City.
When Yizhou soldiers appeared outside the city, Zhou Tai, Chen Dao and Zhang Ren immediately appeared on the city tower.
Soldiers rushed towards Shangyong City suddenly, making the soldiers on the tower nervous.
After equalizing the distance, the soldiers on the city tower immediately relaxed when they saw the soldiers outside the city wearing the uniforms of the Yizhou Army. Zhou Tai watched the army approaching, especially since the soldiers below were soldiers from his own camp, with a look of joy in his eyes
, said: "Here, here, it's our soldiers. I'm going to open the city gate and welcome the vanguard into the city."
After finishing speaking, Zhou Tai turned around and prepared to go downstairs to open the city gate.
Chen Dao and Zhang Ren looked at each other with solemn expressions in their eyes.
Just when the two of them were about to shout out to stop Zhou Tai, a loud shout came from the tower: "Wait a minute!" The voice was not loud, but it was unquestionable and made people must obey.
Zhou Tai stopped immediately after hearing the sound.
When Zhang Ren and Chen Dao saw Zhou Tai stop, they felt relieved.
Zhou Tai is the deputy commander of the Navy. His official position is greater than that of Chen Dao and Zhang Ren, and he has greater power. Although Zhou Tai, Zhang Ren and Chen Dao are all responsible for the defense of Shangyong City, their qualifications are not as good as those of Zhou Tai.
Thai.
If the two of them forcefully stop Zhou Tai, it is very likely that Zhou Tai will lose face and appear embarrassed, and the relationship between the two parties will be easily affected. Now that someone else stops Zhou Tai, that would be great. The person who spoke
, it was Wang Can who stayed behind to take charge of the Fa Zheng in Shangyong City.
Although Fa Zheng was a civil official, Fa Zheng was the guardian of Shangyong City.
Zhou Tai, Chen Dao and Zhang Ren were all generals and assisted Fazheng in defending the city.
Fazheng was wearing a navy blue robe, a scarf on his head, and a sword hanging from his waist. He walked up to Zhou Tai. He walked up to Zhou Tai and said with a smile: "General Zhou, are the soldiers under the city tower our Yizhou army?"
I don’t know, and I don’t know who is leading the troops outside the city. It’s better to wait until the situation is verified before opening the city gate!”
Zhou Tai nodded and said, "Okay, let's take a look at the situation downstairs first."
Fazheng stepped forward, put his hands on the tower, and looked at the army that was gradually approaching.
The "Yizhou Army" outside the city stopped after arriving at the tower.
The leader was a captain in the army. This captain did not have a high official position, but he rushed to the gate with more than 600 soldiers. The captain looked up at the tower, took a breath, and shouted loudly: "
We are the vanguard from Hanzhong, open the city gate immediately, we want to enter the city!"
Fazheng frowned slightly and said, "Something's wrong. The leader of the vanguard army is the young general Lu Meng. Why don't you see anyone?"
He looked at Chen Dao and ordered: "General Chen, come and ask questions."
"promise!"
Chen Dao answered and stuck his head out of the tower. His eyes wandered under the tower, and then he asked loudly: "You are the vanguard army, do you know who the leader of the vanguard army is?"
When the captain at the bottom of the city heard this, a bright smile appeared on his face.
He stared at Chen Dao and replied loudly: "The leader of our vanguard army is General Lu Menglu, and General Lu is a disciple of Master Zhou Mu. This is known to everyone. If you have any doubts, please open the door quickly.
General Lu led the vanguard and came here, but he was delayed by something, so let us support Shangyong first, and General Lu will arrive soon."
After Zhou Tai heard this, he immediately said: "That's right, he is indeed a soldier in our army."
"Absolutely not!"
Zhang Ren and Fazheng spoke in unison. They looked at each other with smiles on their faces.
Chen Dao had a look of astonishment on his face when he heard Zhang Ren and Fazheng's decisive rebuttals. Zhou Tai also looked stunned and asked reflexively: "Why?"
Fazheng waved his hand and said: "General Zhang, tell me!"
Zhang Ren bowed his hands towards Fazheng, with a grateful look in his eyes.
Like Chen Dao, he is a younger generation of generals under Wang Canhui. Although he is capable and well-respected, he does not have the same situation as Lu Meng. The two of them can only rely on themselves to rise step by step. Now Fazheng lets him
The purpose of speaking was obviously to let him show off in front of the soldiers.
Zhang Ren clasped his fists and said: "Actually, the reason is very simple. No one in the army called Lu Meng General Lu. No matter the soldiers or generals in the army, they all called Lu Meng 'little general'. The generals below the city tower
But he said that General Lu is obviously not a soldier in our army, so we can judge that they are not the Yizhou army."
After a pause, Zhang Ren continued: "It would be a bit arbitrary to just use the title of 'little general' to judge. However, if you take a closer look at the soldiers outside the tower, look at the style of the swords on their waists, all
The soldiers' swords look different from the Han knives in our army, which is a big shortcoming."
After finishing speaking, Zhang Ren looked at the others and felt relieved when he saw them nodding.
No matter what, he showed his face in the eyes of everyone.
Fazheng continued: "Actually, if you take a closer look at the soldiers downstairs, you will find that there are no soldiers from the Langya Camp. They are all ordinary soldiers. As the vanguard of the young general, there are no soldiers from the Langya Camp. This is absolutely
Abnormal."
"If you look carefully, you will notice the fifth soldier behind the captain."
"The soldier narrowed his eyes slightly, had a long beard, and a pair of red phoenix eyes. This was his unique appearance, and his temperament was completely different from the soldiers around him. He was fierce and inviolable, and he stood out from the crowd."
"I once heard that Liu Bei has two sworn brothers. One of them is Zhang Fei. He has a chin, a tiger's beard, a broad waist and shoulders, and is a big man from the north. The other one is named Guan Yu, and his appearance is the same as that of the soldiers outside the city.
, they all have red phoenix eyes, silkworm eyebrows, faces like red dates, a pair of long beards under their chins, and their heights are almost the same. Based on this, I concluded that the soldiers outside the city must be Liu Bei's army."
Fazheng looked for Guan Yu with a confident expression on his face.
If Guan Yu was at the back of the army, or in the center of the army, it would still be quite difficult to find Guan Yu among so many people. However, Guan Yu was only a few soldiers away from the captain, and he was discovered by Fa Zheng at once.
.
Zhou Tai heard this and said in a deep voice: "Xiaozhi, since you are Liu Bei's soldier, then open the city gate and fight out!"
Fazheng shook his head and did not agree.
Chen Dao said: "Xiaozhi, are you ready to catch a turtle in an urn?"
"Of course!" Fazheng smiled slightly and said loudly: "Guan Yu wants to sneak into the city as an internal response, so I will let him enter the city, but he can't come or go."
As he spoke, a stern look flashed across Fazheng's face.
Fazheng looked at Chen Dao and ordered: "General Chen, hold Guan Yu on the tower. Don't let him get suspicious, and don't let the soldiers outside the city leave. I will take General Zhou and General Zhang down to the tower to arrange
After I finish the arrangement, I will send soldiers to inform you, and then you agree to let Liu Bei's soldiers enter the city."
Chen Dao nodded and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely stabilize the soldiers outside the city."
He looked resolute and had a solemn expression on his face.
Fazheng bowed to Chen Dao, and then went downstairs with Zhang Ren and Zhou Tai. Guan Yu helped Liu Bei capture Runan. Martial arts should not be underestimated. Sufficient preparations must be made to annihilate Guan Yu's soldiers.
Guan Yu himself came to the door, and Fa Zheng was determined to cut off one of Liu Bei's arms.
