Chapter 201 The ultimate game of courage and psychology
Jiangxia, Anlu County.
"——Hit your second uncle!"
The magistrate of Anlu County, Jiang Gan, slapped a lieutenant in the face. His voice roared out, startling several birds in their nests covered by snow.
At this moment, Jiang Qianyou looked furious, "Xiling, the seat of Jiangxia, has been lost, Liu Ye has been captured, Zhang Yun has been killed...what else are we fighting for? Kaicheng...quickly open the city and surrender!"
…
Jiangxia, Shiyang County.
Wang Can, one of the Seven Sons of Jian'an, the leading novelist during the Three Kingdoms period and the author of "Heroes", is now the county magistrate here.
He was having a leisurely meal when suddenly the city gate defender burst in with disgrace and reported the matter.
"Xiling County was captured by Guan Yu...Liu Ye was captured, Zhang Yun was killed, Jiangxia Navy all surrendered...all Jiangxia Navy warships were captured by Guan Yu!"
Wang Can hasn’t reacted yet!
"County Magistrate...Mr. County Magistrate, it's too bad, Guan Jiajun is already five miles outside the city!"
Wang Can was so surprised that he couldn't speak, "What nonsense are you talking about? Wasn't Xiling County conquered by Guan Yu? Where did the Guan army come from here?"
"It's really Guan Jiajun. Your Majesty, please go and have a look!"
Wang Can was stunned and quickly ran to the top of the city. He saw the men and horses of the Guan Family Army approaching Shiyang County in an orderly manner. He even saw clearly the military flag of the Guan Family Army - "Zhou"!
Wang Can's heart skipped a beat. He had heard for a long time that there was a big man with a sword beside Guan Yu. He was very skilled in martial arts. It was Zhou Cang... Zhou Cang is here!
Wang Can was so frightened that he half-opened his mouth, salivated at the corners of his mouth, and stammered, "Actually... we really got called?"
The defender asked at the side: "Lord County Magistrate? What should we do?"
Wang Can sat down, tilted his mouth, and said in despair, "I'm just a fuss maker, what can I do? Kaicheng, surrender!"
…
Jiangxia, Pingchun County!
Guan Yinping had just given the order to attack the city. The soldiers were rushing forward when suddenly the gate opened wide.
The county magistrate here, Ruan Yu, who is also one of the Seven Sons of Jian'an, strode out. This middle-aged man, who is now forty-seven years old, holds the household registration form of Pingchun County alone in one hand and holds the county magistrate's seal ribbon in his other hand.
As he walked out, he chanted loudly: "Driving out of Beiguo Gate, Ma Fan refused to gallop... He got off the car and hesitated, breaking the withered poplar branches... My mother left me dead, and my stepmother hated the orphans. I was hungry and cold without food and clothing. Beat me with whips. Leave me here..."
This is a song he once composed called "Han Yuefu". In the form of a first-person autobiography, it reveals the ruthlessness of such a family through the tragic fate of an orphan who was abused and abandoned by his stepmother.
It's just that... this poem seems somewhat meaningful when recited at this time.
Of course, Guan Yinping was not that cultured.
In the snow, she couldn't hear clearly what the middle-aged man was chanting.
Until Ruan Yu stepped in front of Guan Yinping, he raised his eyes and met Guan Yinping's gaze: "The thief Cao called me to be an official, but I refused three times and hid in the mountains, but I didn't want the thief Cao to set fire to the mountain and force me to do so." Being an official... I once wrote, 'The Heavenly Gate opens, and the Wei Dynasty will be lucky'. This is all against my will. Finally... I finally waited for Uncle Liu Huang's people! If you had arrived earlier... I... I would have surrendered long ago!"
Speak with certainty.
Guan Yinping didn't know that the man in front of him was a scholar whom Cao Cao admired very much. Half of the letters to the north were written by Chen Lin, and half were written by him.
Of course, these are not important to Guan Yinping at all.
She took the seal ribbon and Hubo, grinned slightly, and showed a faint smile.
——"Sure enough, the weapon can be fought without bloodshed. The fourth brother's prediction is so accurate!"
…
Jiangxia, Zhu County.
When Liao Hua and Zhuge Ke arrived here with five thousand people, the civil and military officials of Zhu County had already opened the city gate, and even prepared food and wine in front of the city gate.
Because of the flying snow catkins, the mouth of some wine jars is covered with snow catkins, giving it a unique taste.
Liao Hua and Zhuge Ke were in doubt.
An official had already arrived in front of the two men, "Reporting to the two generals, our county magistrate and county captain have fled north, and we are the only ones left here. How can we...how dare we resist the heavenly soldiers? We...we have surrendered!"
Liao Hua observed the people in front of him with vigilance and asked suspiciously: "The county magistrate and the county lieutenant knew about fleeing north? Then why didn't you escape?"
"The families of the county magistrate and county captain are in the north. If they surrender, their lives will be at risk. We are all locals and our families are here. Whoever occupies this place, we will serve."
The official answered very honestly.
And his words made Zhuge Ke suddenly realize something.
"I see…"
Liao Hua looked back at him.
Zhuge Ke said calmly: "I finally understand the difference between my vision and Master Yunqi's..."
"In my opinion, this Jiangxia is just a cold enemy city, but in Master Yunqi's opinion, this place has never been an enemy city. It is just a place where groups of poor officials and people live!"
"Changing the king's flag at the top of the city...it doesn't matter whether it's the Han Dynasty or the Wei Dynasty, it doesn't matter whether the traitor Cao Cao or the emperor's uncle! Whoever is the county magistrate...the officials and people here will follow him!"
this…
Liao Hua looked at Zhuge Ke as if he were a fool, and he wanted to say in his heart.
——"Does this also require enlightenment?"
But then he thought that both of them were working for Mr. Guan Lin and were grasshoppers in the same boat, so his attitude immediately softened a lot.
Liao Hua nodded deliberately and heavily.
"——Master Zhuge is right! Now... don't say anything, enter the city and take over the city defense!"
anyway…
Guan Yu ordered that all counties in Jiangxia should be captured within five days.
But where can I use it for five days?
Ever since Liu Ye was captured, Zhang Yun was killed, and the news came out that all Jiangxia naval forces had surrendered, Jiangxia... had already switched sides.
Three days have not passed, and the entire city of Jiangxia and the city walls of every county seat have been transformed into the king's flag!
For these officials, soldiers, and people in Jiangxia...
They never care about loyalty, they only serve the master here!
When the army entered the city, Zhuge Ke stood on the tower of a county town for the first time. He looked at the north... To the north was the vast Nanyang Plain!
He looked to the southeast, where was Shouchun after Hefei...the place where Soochow wanted to reach with all its national strength, and the place where Soochow could break the situation.
He couldn't help but have a lot of daydreams in his mind.
--"This is…"
——"This is something that the "trapped beast is still fighting" Soochow will never be able to see in its lifetime!"
With this in mind, Zhuge Ke turned around and looked south again...
This time I was looking in the direction of Changsha.
He murmured: "Dad, my son... I made the right move, but dad? What about you? I'm afraid that this time you face off against Young Master Yun Qi, you will fail again, right?"
Speaking of which…
A faint sigh came out of Zhuge Ke's mouth, melting into the snow in the sky, dyed with pure white color!
…
…
Changsha County, beside the Laodao River, next to Luohan Village.
Zhuge Jin was looking at the water, his eyes were empty and he was staring ahead.
This riverside... was where everything started when he and Ke'er came to Jingzhou.
Today, the heavy snow in Xiangfan does not cover Changsha.
This was what the weather was like during the Little Ice Age.
In the same state, Jingbei is windy and snowy, and Jingnan is sunny.
only…
There is no snow in the sky, but it does not mean that there is no snow in Zhuge Jin's heart. In fact, his heart at this moment has been wrapped in ice and snow, which is infinitely cold.
——The son is gone;
——The game was lost;
——Again, and again, and again... Once again, after adding fuel to the flames, they shot the enemy in the foot.
I wanted to take advantage of Xinglin's momentum to make some moves, but... the result was that Guan Lin's reputation spread in Xinglin, and Guan Yu's reputation also rose.
To be continued...
