Chapter 275 Zhao Yun seeks battle
Zhao Yun, who had been following Sun Ce's actions, unexpectedly heard that the Northern Army had news about Zhang Xiu. He immediately rushed to the Central Army's tent in three steps at the same time and asked to see his lord Gongsun Ce. However, the Central Army's tent at this time was already full of dangers.
Every confident and capable general was shouting that he would volunteer to teach Zhang Xiu a lesson. He dared to hurt the leader of the camp. This time he really infuriated public anger...
In the past two years, Gao Shun's elite troops trained have made every commanded general taste the sweetness. Taking 10,000 elite troops to go out to fight, the generals have more confidence to win than taking 100,000 mobs.
In any unfavorable situation, as long as there is still someone in the camp, the camp will not collapse. As the head coach, Gao Shun has become a person respected and loved by all generals with his camp.
While everyone was arguing, Zhao Yun's clear voice suppressed everyone's cry: "Lord, Zhao Yun is asking for a fight! Please let Yun meet that Zhang Xiu!"
When Zhao Yun, who had always had a sense of mystery, spoke out loud, and the generals were stunned. Although everyone was not convinced by Zhang Xiu, no one thought he could be better than Zhao Yun. He had easily defeated Zhou Cang.
There are even rumors recently that he had a battle with his lord, but after more than a dozen rounds, he still did not decide the outcome. In other words, at least Zhao Yun’s martial arts skills are not much different from his lord.
You should know that the lord is a person who has fought against Lu Bu several times, although most of the people in the camp have not fought directly with Zhao Yun.
But Zhao Yun won Zhou Cang and Ping Gong's record has made every proud general dare not underestimate him any more.
Sun Ce knew the purpose of Zhao Yun's voluntary request for battle, but in order to convince the generals.
He still pretended to be ignorant and asked, "Oh! Why did Zilong volunteer so much this time? Go to fight that Xiu?"
Zhao Yun said loudly: "It's because Zhang Xiu is the second senior brother of his subordinate! However, after he got out of the army, his subordinates were able to join the master. He always heard from his master that his martial arts skills were not bad, so he wanted to fight with his senior brother, which was a wish!"
All the generals sucked in air conditioning for a while and started discussing in whispers.
If what Zhao Yun said is true, wouldn’t that person named Zhang Xiu be very powerful? He is Zhao Yun’s second senior brother! Fortunately, the lord did not send anyone to Wancheng casually, otherwise, I’m afraid that someone would be injured by Zhang Xiu’s subordinates.
Even Zhou Cang, who had always been the most confident, no longer spoke. Zhang Fei, who stood solemnly, looked dissatisfied. But because he was still a newcomer in the Jiangnan Army, he never spoke up for anything.
Only Sun Ce knew that Zhao Yun, who had already made a breakthrough in his state of mind and shooting skills, must be eight points at this time. He could defeat Zhang Xiu, who was similar to Zhao Yun in Tong Guan's words.
Seeing that the generals no longer objected, Sun Ce said with satisfaction: "Okay, everyone doesn't object! Zilong, I will send you to Wancheng. However, I have something to ask for, and I hope you can convince your second senior brother and his military advisor Jia Xu to join our Jiangnan Army.
It’s not just killing them. But if they are definitely not surrendering, you don’t have to force yourself, protecting your own safety is important.
I just have to be careful of Jia Xu using tricks and capturing him alive. That old guy is a master of tricks. As long as he can surrender him, it will be a great help from us!"
Sun Ce's meaning is already very obvious. If Zhang Xiu does not surrender, he can only destroy him physically. However, Jia Xu, who is only good at using tricks, then there is no need to kill him. Without Zhang Xiu's gun, Jia Xu is a toothless tiger.
Anyway, Jia Xu was captured, and he was a smart person, so he would immediately figure out what he should do.
Zhao Yun looked at Sun Ce deeply, bowed and said, "Zhao Yun obeyed the order!"
Seeing Zhao Yun agreeing, Sun Ce was relieved and laughed: "Good Zilong, I will be waiting for your good news under Xiangyang City!"
After Liu Biao, who was in Xiangyang, sent a thousand vehicles of arms and food to Wancheng without hesitation, he finally heard that Guo Jia's Northern Army was defeated. Even the chief general Gao Shun almost died.
Liu Biao was overjoyed and shouted three times in a row: "Kuai Yidu, okay, okay, it's really a good plan!"
Kuai Liang's plan to drive away the tiger and swallow the wolf worked. Liu Biao, who felt that he had no worries, finally felt relieved.
He followed Kuai Liang's advice again and immediately sent Wen Pin as the main general, with Yi Ji and Cai Zan as the supervisor. He led 30,000 troops to leave Xiangyang and head south to Changbanpo. He wanted to rely on the geographical advantage to block Sun Ce's southern army's attack.
On the Xiangjiang River, there were tens of thousands of naval troops led by Cai Mao himself. Liu Biao was not worried that the Jiangnan army would attack from the river. Even if he really came from the river, it would be time to withdraw Wenpin's army to rescue Xiangyang.
But at this time, Wen Pin was already a little numb by Liu Biao's suspicious eyes. He also knew that he was no longer as trusted as the lord in the past. In the past, no matter how many soldiers he sent, there was no such thing as a military supervisor.
But the lord has an order, and Wen Pin could only accept it helplessly, thinking in his heart: "It's a pity that the long-tongued woman of the Cai family has slandered Wen so much. She can only wait for a long time in the future. The lord will know the loyalty of this general!"
Wen Pin's unexpected attack made Sun Ce's bold words waiting for Zhao Yun under the city of Xiangyang also become empty words.
When Sun Ce evacuated Xiangyang, he led two thousand cavalrymen and took advantage of the geographical advantage on Changbanpo, severely damaged the Wenpin army who came to pursue him.
Wen Pin, who has always been very proud of his military power, suffered a lot of losses. In recent years, Wen Pin has been thinking about getting back with revenge on Sun Ce. This time, he found that the opportunity has come!
Because Zhou Yu's navy was still extermining the scattered Jingzhou navy along the way, Sun Ce could only launch an attack on Xiangyang by land.
If you want to directly attack the Cai Mao naval army outside Xiangyang City, you must mobilize all the Jiangnan naval warships to eliminate Cai Mao with absolute advantages. In this way, without the rear of the navy patrol, it will become very dangerous.
The fleeing Jingzhou naval army could go down the river and avoid the big city where a large number of county soldiers were stationed. They directly disrupted the ground in the south of the Yangtze River. As a last resort, Zhou Yu could only lead Zhou Tai and other naval generals to block the rivers and rivers everywhere and the lakes.
When Sun Ce's 30,000 troops followed the old road of retreating that year, crossed the river and advanced to the foot of Changban slope, he saw that Wenpin, who had already arrived, had already set up dense layers of mountain villages.
At that time, Sun Ce was defeated by two thousand cavalry and fled. Two years later, he happened to be the opposite. Wen Pin became a defender on Changbanpo to block Sun Ce's attack. This time, the troops on both sides were just evenly matched.
