Chapter Twenty-Three: The Horse Leather Shroud


Cheng Gao.

Jia Xu quickly wrote and sealed a letter, handed it to the secret guard beside him, and asked him to hand over the letterhead to Liu Xie as soon as possible.

The coalition army came faster than expected, not to mention the princes of the Central Plains, the main army of Jizhou was already on the verge of Hanoi, and there could be a war at any time Now the war potential of Heluo is not low, more than 1.5 million people have migrated in, if you really want to recruit, you can recruit 100,000 people at any time, but the people's hearts are not stable, and at this moment, the people can only be in chaos, so Jia Xu hopes that Liu Xie can send a team of soldiers and horses to support first.

Let's hope it's in time Watching the secret guards leave, Jia Xu sighed, Liu Bei's soldiers and horses have not yet arrived, the front-line garrisons of Aocang and Xingyang are empty, and it is difficult to take care of the land of the three cities with only a few thousand men and horses in Chenggao, and now, they are waiting for Liu Bei's 30,000 troops to come over and enrich the defense line.

"Sir."

Gao Shun walked in from the door with a serious face, and arched his hand at Jia Xu, "I have found out the news of Liu Bei." ” "Oh" Jia Xu's eyes lit up: "Where have they been?"

"In Yuanling, Yan Liang, the pioneer of Jizhou, and Sun Ce, the pioneer of Huainan, fought one after another, and they all won, but according to the intelligence of various places, Cao Cao's main force should be nearby, and if it collides with Cao Cao, the consequences will be unimaginable" Gao Shun said solemnly.

"General Gao, bothering you to immediately lead three thousand elites to respond" Jia Xu heard this, his face was solemn, this time is not the time to start a war with Cao Cao, according to Jia Xu's analysis, Cao Cao should not take the initiative to be an enemy of the imperial court, this time, most of them are just going through the motions, Liu Bei's 30,000 army, he is of great use, it is best not to have a head-on conflict with Cao Cao.

"That Chenggao" Gao Shun couldn't help frowning when he heard this, there are only 5,000 soldiers and horses in this tiger prison, and 3,000 are pulled out, and the remaining 2,000 people are not easy to guard.

"I have ordered the Yanshi Lieutenant to send the Yanshi soldiers and horses to support, and this time it is just a response, once he meets Liu Bei, let him immediately lead the troops and horses of his headquarters into Aocang, Xingyang can be ignored for the time being, but the place of Aocang is very important, and there must be no loss" Jia Xu shook his head and said, now that the coalition army has not arrived, even if there is a small force sneak attack, with the defensive force of the Tiger Pass, two thousand soldiers and horses are enough to deal with it.

"What's more, there is the latest equipment sent by the Ministry of Industry, which is thousands of troops, and if you want to break into the tiger prison, you may not be able to."

Thinking of the latest equipment sent in by the Ministry of Industry, Jia Xu couldn't help but smile slightly, with these giant city defense equipment, it may not be enough to be aggressive, but if it is defensive, the tiger prison is as safe as Mount Tai.

"I'll go here."

Gao Shun intervened and saluted, took the talisman and went to transfer the troops.

The soldiers and horses of the Yanshi Division were transferred to the Tiger Prison, which had been decided before, and now there are many people and few soldiers in the land of Heluo, and the Tiger Benwei has begun to recruit people and horses in various cities, taking over the soldiers and horses of the counties, and the three passes are not broken, for the time being, Heluo is still relatively stable, and the Tiger Prison Pass is the main attack point of the Kwantung princes, and it must focus on defense, not only equipped with the latest weapons developed by the Ministry of Industry, but also in terms of troops, it cannot be relaxed.

Soon, Gao Shun took the elite of the three thousand tiger prisons out of the customs and went to Yuanling along the Meishan area, hoping to dare to find Liu Bei and bring them back to Ao Cang before Cao Cao and Liu Bei met.

Two days later, when Gao Shun arrived at Meishan with 3,000 elites, he received a battle report from the front line, Liu Bei and Cao Cao had started a war, and the winner had been divided, Liu Bei was defeated, and now he led the remnants of the army to camp in the area of Qilin.

"How about casualties" After Gao Shun heard the news, he couldn't help frowning, he didn't expect Liu Bei to lose so quickly.

"The 30,000-strong army is now less than 10,000, and as for the specific casualties, it is not yet known."

The Scout Commander bowed.

"That Cao Cao's soldiers and horses, where are they stationed now" Gao Shun's psychology sank, 30,000 troops, less than 10,000, this is a big defeat "I have retreated to the Wei clan, and it seems that I have no intention of continuing to march."

The Scout Commands.

Gao Shun thought for a while and said: "Order the three armies, pull out the camp and set up the village, and go to the forest."

Forest.

Liu Bei's camp, after the treatment of the military doctor, Liu Bei has been out of danger of life, sobered up, at the moment is dragging the injured body, looking at the southeast in a daze, looking a little haggard, the original clean face, has not been cleaned for two days, has grown a lot of stubble, the whole person looks, not only decadent, but also a little sloppy, but Liu Bei, who pays great attention to grooming on weekdays, does not care about these at the moment.

Not far from him, Guan Yu knelt on the ground silently, did not explain anything, the news of Zhang Fei's death had come, no matter how it was explained, it was irretrievable fact, although Liu Bei did not blame him, but the self-blame in his heart was like a knife biting him, Cao Cao did not embarrass Zhang Fei's corpse after he came to his senses, leaving him in place, but after reining in Xiahoudun's corpse, he returned to Wei's family.

This battle, no matter whether it is won or lost, is not a thing to be happy about for Cao Cao and Liu Bei.

"Lord, prince, you haven't eaten for two days, your injuries haven't healed, eat something first, and then it's not too late to make plans."

Chen Zhi and Guan Ping came over with two clay pots, and there was a burst of meat aroma from them, but they couldn't attract the two of them at the moment.

Seeing this, Chen Zhi couldn't help but sigh, and at this moment, a fast horse galloped over, and the scout on the horse turned over and fell off the horse, knelt beside Liu Bei, and said hoarsely: "Lord, the remains of the three generals have been sent back." ” Liu Bei and Guan Yu suddenly raised their heads, their eyes were a little scary, Liu Bei swallowed his saliva, looked at the scout and said, "Where is the third brother now?"

"Outside the camp, there is General Zhou Cang to take care of it."

The scout bowed.

"Go" Liu Bei heard this, and didn't care about saying anything, holding on to the pain, and rushed towards the outside of the camp, behind him, Guan Yu got up with Guan Ping's support, and walked towards the outside of the camp with some staggering steps, he had been kneeling for two days, and suddenly got up at this moment, a pair of legs were numb, but he urged Guan Ping to help him walk quickly outside the camp.

Although he had received the news of his death, the moment he really saw Zhang Fei's body, Liu Bei couldn't help but cry, Zhang Fei's body was carried to a stretcher, and Zhang Fei's beloved horse, Wu Qi, was dying at the moment, but he refused to leave his master for half a moment.

When Liu Bei and Guan Yu came, BMW was psychic, and recognized these two as the closest people to the owner, and let out a wail weakly.

"Yide" looked at Zhang Fei's corpse that was staring at Lao Yuan until death, Liu Bei was sad from it, and the injury had not healed, so he fainted directly from crying.

Guan Yu at this moment, his heart was like a knife, and he knelt silently in Zhang Fei's advance, he had never shed a single tear since the Taoyuan uprising, but at this moment he couldn't help but cry, the man didn't flick his tears, just because he didn't get to the sad place, Zhang Fei's death at this moment was a blow to the three people who were used to relying on each other, and all the lines of defense in their hearts completely collapsed.

I don't know how long it took, Liu Bei was forcibly poured a few mouthfuls of broth by Chen Zhi and others, and then he woke up leisurely, looking at Zhang Fei's corpse, and there was a burst of sadness.

Guan Yu took a deep breath, looked at the dying Wu Qi next to Zhang Fei's corpse, and Zhou Cang on the side hurriedly stepped forward and said: "When we found the body of the third master, the horse's leg was broken, and it was crawling next to the third master's corpse, and someone bit it when it got close, we waited for it to lose its strength before carrying the third master up, but the horse was reluctant to leave, and it was forced to keep up, and refused to eat anything to feed it. ” When Guan Yu heard this, his eyes flashed with pity, when this horse was sent by Gongsun Zhan, it was supposed to be given to Guan Yu, but Zhang Fei had a soft spot for it, and he asked Guan Yu to come over with a dead face, and now Zhang Fei is dead, looking at the horse's eyes full of dead silence, he is obviously ready to be martyred, but how can Guan Yu watch the third brother's love to starve to death like this Let Guan Ping personally go and get a bundle of hay, sprinkle some refined salt, Guan Yu sent the hay to Wu Qi's mouth.

Wu Xiao looked at the forage, then at Guan Yu, rubbed Guan Yu's arm affectionately, and pushed the forage aside with his head, refusing to eat it.

Many soldiers around looked at the heart of an inexplicable sourness, such a psychic horse, it is really only seen in life, Liu Bei saw this, the tears in his eyes poured out again, hugging the black horse and crying bitterly.

Guan Yu sighed, silently pulled out the sword from his waist, and looked at Liu Bei: "Big brother, fulfill it." ” Liu Bei shook his head, grabbed a handful of hay, and sent it to Wu Qi's mouth, seeing that Wu Qi didn't turn his head, he sent it to the other side, so back and forth, Guan Yu couldn't stand it anymore, and in Liu Bei's cry of pain, he pulled Liu Bei away and pierced Wu Qi's head with a sword.

"Third Brother" Guan Yu raised his head to prevent his tears from flowing again.

"My lord, the prince, let's let the three generals settle in the earth as soon as possible."

After Liu Bei's mood stabilized, Chen Zhi came to Liu Bei's side silently and bowed.

When Liu Bei heard this, he nodded sadly, glanced at the already exhausted Wuqi, and said sadly: "This horse is the third brother's love for horses before his death, and he is loyal to the third brother, so he will be buried with the third brother, so that the third brother will not be lonely under the nine springs." ” "Wow" Chen Zhi bowed down in response.

"Newspaper" A scout Pegasus came, and in a moment he had already come to everyone, turned over and dismounted, bowed and said, "My lord, my lord, I found a soldier and horse in the distance, and it is approaching this side. ” "But Cao Jun" Guan Yu pressed his sword suddenly, and Danfeng's eyes flashed with a terrifying killing intent.

"Look at the flag, it shouldn't be, it's the imperial court's soldiers and horses."

The scout was startled by the murderous aura that erupted from Guan Yu's body in an instant, and quickly shook his head.

"Imperial Court Soldiers and Horses" Liu Bei couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this: "I regret not listening to Mr.

Wenhe's words, so I have been defeated, and I have even broken my third brother."

Thinking of Zhang Fei's death, Liu Bei couldn't help but feel a heartache.

"Brother, let's go and meet with the people from the court first."

Guan Yu sighed, since Chen Gong left, Liu Bei has one less person by his side who can make suggestions, he didn't think anything about it before, but now that he thinks about it, if Chen Gong is still there, they won't be so passive.

Liu Bei sighed, nodded, and took Guan Yu to greet the imperial court soldiers and horses. t1706231537:
