Chapter two hundred and sixty seventh each has a ghost
Looking at Liu Ji who easily lifted Zhu Tuna and Shen Tujian high, Wang Kuang's heart trembled and his body tilted back involuntarily. Liu Ji was truly a god!
Feeling that Liu Ji's limelight was almost enough, and those who should be shocked were also shocked, Liu Yan smiled slightly, waved to Liu Ji and said: "Okay, A Ji, until now, we are all brothers, don't hurt the harmony."
Wang Kuang quickly answered: "Yes, yes, yes, don't hurt your harmony!"
Liu Ji chuckled and threw Zhu Tuna and Shen Tujian to the ground, making two muffled sounds. Although he didn't use any force, he still threw the two of them to pieces. It felt like all the bones in his body were like It's like it's falling apart.
Just as the two were struggling to get up from the ground, Liu Ji bent down, stretched out his hands in front of the two of them, and said cheerfully: "From now on, we are all on our own, and we can always compete, compete, compete, compete!"
Zhu Tuna and Shen Tujian looked ugly, holding a ball of anger in their chests that they could not vent. But from the bottom of their hearts, they had to sincerely admire Liu Ji. The two took a deep breath, held Liu Ji's hand, and Stand up from the ground.
Then they both bowed their hands to Liu Ji and saluted, saying: "General Liu Ji is brave, I admire you!" After saying that, the two of them did not wait for Liu Ji's reply, and returned to their seats with gloomy faces.
Tsk! Sure enough, he was born as a grass bandit and has no grace! Liu Ji didn't mind, shrugged, glanced at the generals of the Green Forest Army, and asked: "Is there anyone else who is willing to compete with me?"
Zang Gong could compete with Liu Ji, but he had already respected Liu Xiu as his lord, so naturally he would not try to demolish the pillars of the Heavenly Army. He lowered his head and acted as if the matter had nothing to do with him.
Liu Ji asked twice more, and when he saw that no one from the Green Forest Army spoke, and no one stood up, he didn't say anything more and turned around to return to his seat.
The Green Forest Army originally wanted to compete to be the leader, but Liu Ji came forward and shocked everyone with his skills, which greatly reduced the Green Forest Army's desire to be the leader.
Liu Yan said to Wang Kuang: "General Wang!"
"General!"
"Today in Nanyang, there are 100,000 capital troops eyeing the situation, and the situation is critical. If we continue to fight for superiority among ourselves at this time, it will only cause internal strife and be detrimental to the overall situation. Should we discuss this matter later? "
Chen Mu straightened up and was about to speak, but out of the corner of his eye he caught Liu Ji looking at him. He immediately swallowed his words and remained silent.
Wang Kuang thought for a while, and after a while, he laughed and said: "What the general said makes sense! Now we should unite as one to fight against the powerful enemy. As for the matter of superiority and inferiority, we will discuss it later!"
The main content of the negotiations between the two parties has come to an end. There is no distinction between the Zhutian Army and the Green Forest Army, and there is no clear agreement on who should obey whose command.
It may seem like neither party suffers, but in fact, the relationship between the two parties is very ambiguous and there are huge hidden dangers.
The next discussion was about how the Zhutian Army and the Green Forest Army could join forces to fight against the Capital Army.
On this matter, the two sides did not have much disagreement. They agreed to march north from Jiyang, first to the south, then to Xiaochang'an, and finally to Wancheng.
Soon, the two sides finalized some details of the battle. Then, Wang Kuang sent someone to arrange for Liu Yan and others to rest first. A banquet was held in the evening, and the two sides drank and chatted.
After Liu Yan and Liu Xiu left, Chen Mu took the lead and said: "General Wang, our army of 50,000 has formed an alliance with the Zhutian Army of only 5,000. As a result, our army cannot make the decision. It is simply unreasonable!"
Generals Zhu Tun, Shen Tujian, Zhang Xuan, Hu Yin, Zong Yan, and Yin Zun also expressed their dissatisfaction and indignation.
Their side was clearly outnumbered, and the Zhutian Army was clearly struggling to survive. However, after the alliance ended, the status of both sides was equal, which they really couldn't accept.
Wang Kuang looked at the people with angry faces, spread his hands, and said helplessly: "Although there are not many soldiers left in the Zhutian Army, they are all good soldiers and generals. Take Liu Ji for example, he is so brave that no one can defeat him, and he is completely invincible."
If you take us into consideration, what can we do?"
His words sounded like he was advising his generals to endure it, but in fact, his words could only arouse stronger dissatisfaction in people's hearts.
Of course Wang Kuang had selfish motives. After the two armies merged, he was also worried that his generals would go to the Zhutian Army. By then, the two sides would have formed an alliance and become one family, and he could not stop it even if he wanted to.
It's better to take advantage of now to stir up dissatisfaction with General Zhutian's army.
Wang Feng and Zang Gong both saw what he was thinking. The former glanced at Wang Kuang but didn't say much.
Zang Gong clenched his fists and knitted his brows into knots. Wang Kuang's mentality was not that of a sincere alliance with the Zhutian Army. With this mentality, how could the two sides cooperate closely?
He shook his head, stood up, and walked out.
Wang Kuang was startled and asked, "Where are you going, Lord?"
Zang Gong said: "In Chaoyang, General Wen Shu saved the life of the last general. Now that General Wen Shu has arrived in Caiyang, the last general will of course go to visit him." After saying this, he didn't even wait for Wang Kuang to answer.
Have walked out of the Chinese military tent.
He was not originally a subordinate of Wang Kuang and Chen Mu, but a member of the Xiajiang Army, a subordinate of Wang Chang and Cheng Dan. He was only helping the Xinshi Army and the Pinglin Army.
Seeing Zang Gong walking out of the tent without looking back, Chen Mu snorted and said disapprovingly: "I'm going to be extroverted whether I come or not. I think Zang Junweng will most likely come under Liu Xiu's command in the future. Is that possible?"
Conspire with us!"
Wang Kuang said nothing more, his face was still cheerful, but his heart was extremely unhappy.
Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes and said quietly: "Zhu Tian's army has ulterior motives and wants to annex our army. Naturally, our army cannot sit still and wait for death."
Chen Mu asked: "General Zhang means, now..." As he spoke, he made a cross-cutting gesture.
Seeing this gesture, Wang Feng was shocked, and the expressions of everyone present suddenly changed. Wang Kuang leaned forward and waved his hands repeatedly. Before he could speak, Zhang Xuan said: "Now is not the time. After all, we have a new one now."
The biggest enemy is the Capital Army!"
Chen Mu frowned and asked, "General Zhang can't sit still and wait for death, right?"
Zhang Xuan said seriously: "Isn't there a brother named Liu Xuan in our army? He should be promoted immediately. We must not let the Zhutian Army take him away! With Liu Xuan here, we have an extra hostage in our hands.
There is also one more way to contain the Zhutian Army!"
Upon hearing this, everyone present, including Wang Kuang and Chen Mu, nodded.
The alliance between the Zhutian Army and the Green Forest Army was actually about what each side wanted. The Zhutian Army valued the Green Forest Army's large number of soldiers and generals, while the Green Forest Army valued the Han Dynasty banner of the Zhutian Army.
Both sides have hidden selfish motives, and this alliance was not strong from the beginning. To be more precise, both sides were wary of each other from the beginning, and there was not much sincerity at all.
But one thing is that their goals are definitely highly consistent, that is, they have a common enemy, the reckless army.
Liu Yan's tent.
Liu Xiu and others are now in Liu Yan's camp, and they are also talking about the meeting just now. Liu Yan smiled at Liu Ji and said, "Ah Ji, you performed well in front of the Green Forest Army just now. You have strengthened our Zhutian Army." Majestic!"
Liu Ji was a little embarrassed by the praise. His face turned red and he scratched his head and said, "Young Lu Lin, you still want to be superior to me and other Han clan clan members. It is simply a wishful thinking! As long as I, Liu Ji, are here for one day, I will die. Suppress these green forest kids to the death!"
When Liu Yan heard this, he threw his head back and laughed, and Liu Xiu and others were also happy.
After a while, Liu Xiu said meaningfully: "The Green Forest Army wanted to take the lead after the two armies formed an alliance. Now that they have not been able to achieve their goal, they must be dissatisfied. They may also cause trouble for us in the future."
Liu Ji said disapprovingly: "What are you afraid of? As long as I'm here, the soldiers will come to stop you, and the water will come to cover you. Let's see what tricks the green forest kid can use."
Liu Xiu waved his hand and said sternly: "Brother Ji must not take it lightly. The Green Forest Army suffered heavy losses several times, but it was able to recover several times, and its power was greater than before the heavy damage. Wang Kuang, Wang Feng, Chen Mu, and Liao Zhan are not easy to take lightly. generation!"
Liu Yan nodded and said to Liu Ji: "What A Xiu said is not unreasonable. A Ji should be careful and careful in the future!"
The eldest brother spoke, and Liu Ji didn't dare not listen. On the surface, he nodded in agreement, but in his heart he disagreed.
In this life, Liu Ji suffered only from his arrogance. Otherwise, with Liu Ji's military power, his reputation would be no less than that of Xiang Yu in his previous life and Lu Bu in his later life.
While they were talking, Liu Ci walked in from outside. People looked behind him specifically and saw that there was no one behind him. Liu Yan asked in confusion: "Where's Ah Xuan?"
"Wang Kuang sent someone to send him away!" Liu Ci found a soft couch and sat down on it. At this time, his eye circles were still a little red, and it was obvious that he had just cried.
Liu Xiu asked: "Uncle Clan, how is Ah Xuan doing in the Green Forest Army?"
"What else?!" Liu Ci snorted coldly and said: "In the past, more than 30,000 Green Forest Army troops were huddled in Pinglin. How could two small counties in the Xinshi area afford to support so many people? Apart from people, there is nothing that is in short supply. On weekdays, we don’t even have enough food, let alone military pay, clothing, and supplies.”
When the Green Forest Army invaded Caiyang, they robbed everything they saw. First, the Green Forest Army's military rules and disciplines were indeed lax. Second, people were really forced into unbearable conditions. Even the clothes of ordinary people were not available to them here. It's all good stuff.
"Alas!" Liu Yan sighed and said, "Axuan suffered a lot in the Green Forest Army."
Liu Ci said: "General, when we return to Jiyang this time, we must take Ah Xuan away. We cannot leave Ah Xuan to continue to suffer in the Green Forest Army!"
Without thinking, Liu Yan nodded as he should and said, "As it should be!"
Liu Xuan, Liu Yan and Liu Xiu have a very close relationship. They are all relatives of the Liu family and have known each other since childhood. Liu Xuan is older than Liu Xiu and younger than Liu Yan, so he is in between them. The relationship between the two is very familiar.
Liu Xiu lowered his eyes and said nothing about this matter.
He vaguely remembered that when he met Liu Xuan in Pinglin, he was clearly bullied by the Green Forest Army and his wife was scorned by the Green Forest Army, but he knelt down and offered to join the Green Forest Army.
This kind of Liu Xuan is no longer the Liu Xuan Liu Xiu knew. He is no longer the Liu Xuan who dared to recruit many followers and fight against his enemies in order to avenge the murder of his younger brother.
He may seem cowardly, but he can actually be extremely forbearing, and his schemes and plans are unfathomable.
If there is such a person beside the eldest brother... Liu Xiu secretly shook his head, feeling that the hidden danger was too great.
