Chapter 452

It's late at night!
Sha Moke led the remnants of the defeated generals and broke out of the encirclement.However, there were less than a thousand Wuxi barbarians following up.

Of the fifty fighters, most of them were killed.Although Sha Moke seriously injured Xing Daorong, it was irrelevant to the overall situation.

Zhuge Liang assembled his troops, ready to continue the pursuit.

But at this time, a general order came from Yicheng: the three armies rested on the spot, and they were not allowed to pursue Sha Moke again.

"why!"

Zhuge Liang was furious when he heard this, and asked the messenger: "Who gave the order? Why are you not allowed to pursue Nashamoke again?"

On weekdays, Zhuge Liang always gave people a gentle and refined demeanor, but the furious expression on this matter shocked the messenger.

"This is an order issued by the prefect and Lord Biejia. Biejia has already arrived in Yicheng. If the general has any questions, you can ask them yourself."

"Of course I will ask!"

Zhuge Liang was unwilling, but there was nothing he could do.

He still understands the principle of order and prohibition. Although he has a close relationship with the Jingxiang family, both the Cai family and the Kuai family are inextricably linked to the Zhuge family.But he didn't dare to fight in disobedience.This is a law, a rule, and no one can violate it.

Wu Ju led the troops to sweep the battlefield, and Zhuge Liang returned to Yicheng angrily with Zhuge Cang.

He went straight to the government office, without waiting for the soldiers to report, he broke into the hall.I saw a middle-aged man sitting in the hall.

There is nothing special about its appearance, anyway, it will disappear immediately if it is thrown into the crowd.

He is seven feet tall and has a clean finish.Three strands of black beard fluttering, a folding fan in his hand, talking and laughing happily with Xiang Jie, looking very leisurely.

"Kong Ming is here!"

The middle-aged man greeted with a smile, and moved a seat to the killer, and let Zhuge Liang sit down.

There is a saying that stretches out one's hand and does not hit a smiling face.But the young and energetic Zhuge Liang obviously didn't have that patience, so he walked up to the middle-aged man.

"My lord, why did you stop chasing!"

This middle-aged man, named Liu Ba, named Zichu, was only 33 years old, and he was in his prime.

Speaking of which, although Liu Ba was not from a wealthy family, he was also from a family of officials and eunuchs.His grandfather, Liu Yao, was the prefect of Cangwu; his father, Liu Xiang, was the prefect of Jiangxia and the general of the gangsters.When Liu Biao first arrived in Jingzhou, he was at odds with Liu Ba's father and even wanted to kill him.

He arrested Liu Ba and ordered someone to tell Liu Ba, "Master Zhou wants to kill you, so we can help you escape."

But Liu Ba ignored him, calm and composed, and did what he had to do.Repeatedly and repeatedly, Liu Biao's strategy was never caught.

Liu Biao was amazed instead, and said, "This son has extraordinary bearing, and he will surely do something in the future, so don't insult him."

Instead of killing Liu Ba, he personally went to Jiangxia to apologize to Liu Xiang.And he kept Liu Ba by his side, and when he became an adult, he was appointed as Bie Jia.As for Liu Ba, he also showed unusual skills. Liu Biao handled his affairs in an orderly manner without any mistakes.

Whenever Liu Biao left Xiangyang, he would hand over important matters to Kuai Yue and order Liu Ba to assist him.

Zhuge Liang's questioning was extremely blunt.Hearing this, Xiang Jie couldn't help but frowned slightly, then shook his head and sighed softly.

Young, still too young...

Even if you have a background in your family, you can't hold your breath.It's a good seed, but if you don't hone it, I'm afraid it will be difficult to become a big climate.

On the contrary, Liu Ba seemed indifferent and smiled calmly.

"Kong Ming, let me ask you...why did Shamoke attack Xiangyang?"

"This is..."

Zhuge Liang was taken aback, not knowing how to answer.To be honest, he really didn't seriously consider this issue.

Xiang Jie said: "Although Sha Moke is reckless, he is not without capable people around him. To be precise, he attacked Xiangyang to contain the lord, because the lord cannot attack Jiangdong with all his strength. But if Sha Moke intends to rob Jingzhou, hehe... …I don’t think he’s that pretentious.”

"Since he is pulling the lord's hind legs, we should destroy him."

Liu Ba said: "But the problem is that Shamoke's actions are only good for us, not bad. The lord and Liu Bei teaming up is definitely not the best strategy. Liu Bei is quite ambitious. He was a rebel, first betrayed Yuan Shao, and then killed him." Tao Qian, not long ago formed an alliance with Luo Yang, but the key point was to escape alone. While the main force of the friendly army was not there, he joined forces with the lord instead... This kind of person must not be trusted, nor should he form an alliance."

Xiang Jie nodded, "It's a pity that my lord was deceived by his lies... Once Jiangdong is destroyed, Liu Bei will definitely spy on Jiangdong. At that time, the flames of war will spread to the nine counties of Jingxiang. This is definitely not what we want. So stop now , it will be of great benefit to my lord and Jingzhou."

Zhuge Liang couldn't help but look at Xiang Jie with a look he had never seen before.

He looked down on Xiang Jie, and felt that Xiang Jie had no courage and no ability.The reason why I can sit in today's seat is nothing but luck.

This person only wants to have no faults, not meritorious service, so he really shouldn't be reused.

But Xiang Jie's words made Zhuge Liang see a brand new Xiang Jie.Is this person really gutless?Is he really an incompetent person?If so, he can't say such a thing.But why, always acting cowardly?
Can't help but think of a sentence Sima Hui said when he left Shuijing Villa.

"Jingxiang Nine Commanderies, since ancient times, there have been outstanding people, crouching tigers, hidden dragons, countless. Although you have completed your studies, Kong Ming, in fact, your studies have just begun. Remember, you must not underestimate anyone , everyone has another side that they don't know."

Since Zhuge Liang defected to Liu Biao, he could not help being proud of being reused by Liu Biao through his wealth and background.

Seeing that Zhuge Liang was silent, Liu Ba suddenly asked, "Kong Ming, but I ask you...if you kill Sha Moke, how will Dong Bi react?"

"Well, I will definitely lead the army of the whole country to fight with us... But, how could Cao Cao tolerate him?"

"You are indeed wrong. Cao Cao will not stop him. On the contrary, he would like Dong Bi to fight with the lord, so that he can benefit from the fisherman. Everyone thinks Dong Bi is a reckless man, but how can such a reckless man achieve today's success? My lord It is not easy to provoke enemies when the foundation is established."

"But, do you just let Shamoko go like this?"

Zhuge Liang felt unwilling and muttered.

"Hey, we can let him go, but it doesn't mean that Sha Moke will be able to escape alive. How can Li Zhengfang sit by and watch?"

Zhuge Liang didn't react to this sentence all at once, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart, and secretly took a breath of cold air.

Li Yan, but a poor man!
Stealing a high position and having an aloof personality is no longer tolerated by the Jingxiang family.

If he hadn't come from Qin Jie's sect, and had a close relationship with Kuai Liang, and Liu Biao relied heavily on him, there might not even be any bones left.The Jingxiang family is deeply rooted... Li Yan is from Nanyang at any time, but he is not from Jingzhou, so he is regarded as an outsider.Liu Biao relied on the strength of the Jingxiang family to rule Jingzhou.But it doesn't mean that Liu Biao is really willing to let the family control Jingzhou.

He is bound to support a group of people.

For example, Li Yan and Zhou Xin belong to this category.

If Li Yan killed Sha Moke, he would definitely offend Dong Bi.And Liu Biao's desire to keep Li Yan at that time is probably unlikely.

As for Zhou Xin, he is very low-key and is too old to worry about.

This is Liu Ba and others wanting to kill people with a knife in order to get rid of Li Yan who threatens the interests of the Jingxiang family... The purpose is to kill without blood!
While Zhuge Liang was startled, he thought about the past, but broke out in a cold sweat.

It's better to be low-key. I used to be too sharp in my life, which is really not a good thing.

******
Sha Moke and others, after getting rid of the pursuers, rushed to Lankouju.

But before they arrived at Lankouju, they met Zhou Chao and others who were defeated from Lankouju.It turned out that when Shamoke was fighting with the Jingzhou army in Yishui, Li Yan sent Han Song to send troops from Pang Kingdom suddenly.The Zhou Dynasty, whose foothold was not stable, rushed to the battle, but was defeated.

Five thousand soldiers and horses were cut in half.

When he saw Shamoke, Zhou Chao burst into tears, "Your Majesty, you deserve death for your crimes, but you lost your Lankouju. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

If it was a day ago, Sha Moke might really have punished the Zhou Dynasty.But Yi Shui's defeat made him suddenly have many enlightenments.

"Ling Xian, I don't blame you for this defeat. It's just that I was too arrogant to be able to achieve today. At the beginning, Mr. Kong Ming obstructed everything, but I just didn't listen. I understand now that the mind of this scholar is more than a real knife." A real gun kills more invisible, and I am not wronged."

"Then we now..."

"Go to Yidao immediately, as long as we can reach Yidao and retreat into Jishan, we will be safe!"

Zhou Chao said, "But where should we leave?"

From Lankouju to Yidao, there are two roads, one is to cross the Nanzhang River and Jushui, and the other is to take the plain, from the confluence of the two rivers, cross the Zhijiang River and take the Yidao.In contrast, the distance between Nanzhangshui and Jushui is short; if you take Zhijiang, the journey is not only long, but also difficult.

Sha Moke hesitated for a moment, "If I were the Jingzhou army, I would definitely think that I walked along the two rivers...Well, let's go to Zhijiang and go straight to Yidao."

At this time, Shamoko also had to learn to use his brain.

After the two armies converged, they turned to the direction of Zhijiang.Along the way, as Samoko had guessed, there was no obstacle.

Two days later, people were tired and horses were exhausted.

Shamoke came to a hilly area, Lema asked, "Where is this?"

Zhou Chao replied: "This place is the remaining vein of Jingshan Mountain, named Dangyangban, also known as Changbanpo. Going southeast, it is the Han River, which can go straight into Yunmeng Lake. Your Majesty, after passing Dangyang, you will soon reach Zhijiang. But here is near Nanjun County, it is the seat of Nanjun, so be careful."

Is it Changbanpo?

If Dong Bi was here, he would definitely be chilled.

Where is Changbanpo?Back then, Zhao Zilong became famous in the bloody battle against Changbanpo.Here...hehe, it's definitely not a good place.

But Shamoko didn't know.

Turning his head to look, he saw that the people behind him were all exhausted, and he couldn't help but feel guilty.

"Let everyone take a break. We will wait until after dark before going out of Dangyang. The Jingzhou Army will definitely relax by then."

It is a bit clever to say that Zhou Chao is clever, but it is definitely not great wisdom.In this regard, he is more similar to Tang Zhou who followed Dong Bi back then, and even worse than Huang Shao.Hearing what Shamoke said, he also felt that there was no danger, so he immediately sent an order to order the soldiers to rest on the spot.

Sha Moke let Hu Leibo hunt for food, and sat on a stone with a steel whip and a mace.

Thinking about what happened over the past month, we can actually find that he made many mistakes along the way, and all of them were fatal.

No wonder, when my second brother was parting, he repeatedly told me not to act rashly.

Sha Moke thought of Dong Pi's words, couldn't help feeling sad, and held the mace tightly, only then did he restrain the urge to cry.

Zhou Chao came over with a few wild fruits in his hands, and said softly, "Your Majesty, you haven't eaten for a day, so let's just eat something."

"Have everyone eaten?"

"Eat all..."

The wild fruit is sour, but Samoko doesn't notice it.If it wasn't for his own willfulness, how could he end up like this?

Before he could swallow a mouthful of wild fruit, he suddenly heard the sound of a drum.Immediately afterwards, the sound of drums was deafening.

From all directions, countless Jingzhou troops suddenly poured out.

On the big banner is written: Nanjun Li's words.Under the big banner, Li Yan raised his gun immediately, with a calm expression, "Samoke, where are you going!"

If there is no rest, the Wuxi barbarian army might still be able to fight.But this rest, the whole body is sore.When the Jingzhou army came out, everyone was caught off guard.Countless people didn't even have time to stand up, watching the Jingzhou army rushing towards them in horror.

The red all over the mountains and plains is like a sea of ​​fire.

Shamo Keteng stood up, with the steel whip on his back, and with a horizontal mace in his palm, he whistled, calling for Hulei Ban.

But the Jingzhou army has already rushed over.

There was chaos on Changban slope.Seeing that Shamoke was too late to get on his horse, the general leaped on his horse and twisted his gun, and rushed towards him, shouting to himself, "Wu Na Barbarian, General Cai Xun, I'll take your dog's life."

In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Sha Moke, the big spear in his palm trembled, and stabbed when he was distracted.

Sha Moke let out a roar, stepped aside Cai Xun's big gun, grabbed the gun with a slam, and swung the autumn wind with the mace with the other hand to sweep the fallen leaves, and hit it out with the sound of the wind.I just heard bang... Xi Yuyu's horse let out a scream, and the mace smashed Cai Xun's mount and cracked his brains.Youzi rushed forward two steps, and fell into a pool of blood with a puff.At this time, Hu Leibo had also rushed over.

Sha Moke twisted the gun and turned his hand, nailing Cai Xun and his horse to the ground.

With the strength of this meal, he rose into the air and straddled Hu Leibo's back.Putting on stirrups with both feet, dragging the mace backwards, facing four or five Jingzhou troops, and swept away the thousands of troops with one move.People borrow horsepower, and horses borrow people's prestige. When this stick goes down, the Jingzhou army's bones are broken.

After snatching a war horse, Sha Moke shouted loudly: "Ling Xian, get on the horse!"

Zhou Chao was also polite, got on his horse, grabbed the long spear stuck on Cai Xun's body, and rushed to kill after Shamoke.

It is undeniable that Shamoko is indeed brave.

As for this point, Li Yan can be said to be very clear.

Therefore, from the very beginning, he didn't intend to single out Shamoko, it was courting death.Only an idiot like Cai Xun would go there and die.

Under the big banner, Li Yan commanded his soldiers and horses to launch a fierce attack towards Shamoke.

Aren't you amazing?
It doesn't matter, you can beat ten people, one hundred people... But one thousand people, ten thousand people, can you still resist?
Along the way, Li Yan had countless chances to make a move, but he chose Changbanpo because he knew that human energy always has its limit.Shamoke's diametrically opposed plan was part of Li Yan's calculations from the very beginning.No way, who made us comrades-in-arms?

Shamoko's physical strength is indeed almost exhausted.

Not only him, even Hu Leibo under his crotch was very tired.

After only four or five rounds, Shamoke was out of breath, and the mace in his hand became heavier and heavier.

And the Hu Leibo under his crotch obviously couldn't hold on.He kept panting, his speed was getting slower and slower, and he was becoming more and more inflexible.

Li Yan saw it clearly from a height, and smiled calmly.

The flag was unfurled, and more than a dozen generals immediately surrounded Sha Moke.

In the distance, the Wuxi barbarian army fled in all directions to avoid being killed by the Jingzhou army.Although there are more than a dozen fighters remaining, they want to get closer to Shamoko.But Li Yan ordered people to stop them, and a burst of arrows shot down, and a dozen fighters were all shot to death on the battlefield.

Sha Moke's eyes are red!

Zhou Chao let out a scream, and a general cut off his arm with a knife, and blood gushed out.

Shamoke let out a sharp roar, swung the mace up with his hands, and flew out.With this powerful name, the four or five generals in the lead were accidentally hit by the mace, swept, turned over and fell off the horse.Sha Moke drew out his steel whip, and galloped his horse to the Jingzhou general who cut off Zhou Chao's arm.With a thunderous roar, he raised his whip and knocked the general of Jingzhou off his horse.

"Ling Xian, follow me!"

Zhou Chao gritted his teeth and stood up, wrapped his wound with his war robe, and got on his horse.

Seeing it from a distance, Li Yan couldn't help but gasped, clenched his teeth, and clenched his fists.It's all come to this point, do you still have to work hard?
Li Yan doesn't want to kill Sha Moke!

If he wants to live, capturing Shamoko alive is even more meaningful.

How could he not guess the plans of the Jingzhou family.In that case, Samoko could be allowed to escape without tricks, no wonder!

And he had to stand by and watch, because he was the prefect of Nanjun.

Therefore, the only way to capture Shamoke alive is not only to break the conspiracy of those guys, but also to Li Yan, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

Before the attack, Li Yan had already issued repeated orders, absolutely not allowing cold arrows to attack Shamoke.He wants to live, it is very important to him.

Can the ten generals kill you?
Then I will fill it with more people, see how long you can hold on...

Li Yan gritted his teeth and made up his mind, waved the command flag, and the surrounding Jingzhou generals swarmed towards Shamoke.As a martial artist, who doesn't want to be famous?Who is Shamoko?That is the world-renowned fierce general, the brother of the Tiger of the Western Regions.If you take him down, wouldn't you be famous.

Sha Moke swung his steel whip, grabbed a big gun with one hand, whipped left and shot right, and no one could stop him.

The brave killing method shocked the Jingzhou army.If Shamoke hadn't wanted to protect the Zhou Dynasty, he would have broken out of the encirclement.

Dong Bi once said: "Although Shasha is brave and ruthless, he is not as decisive as a man. Sometimes, the kindness of a woman should kill him."

That's what it says, but in reality?I'm afraid even Dong Bi will inevitably have a time of benevolence for women.The difference is that Dong Bi will cover up.

Zhou Chao shouted sharply: "Your Majesty, hurry up, don't worry about Chao's life and death again."

Sha Moke smashed Yijiang's head with a whip, and shouted angrily: "I brought you to this field, if you ignore it, you are no different from a beast."

Zhou Chao's eyes are red...

His face was covered with blood, and the only remaining hand held the sword, and suddenly turned the edge of the sword, "Your Majesty's kindness, I will repay it in the next life, go!"

As he spoke, he exerted force on his hands and killed himself on the horse.

Seeing this situation, the surrounding Jingzhou army couldn't help but stall their offensive.Although he is an enemy, the loyalty and fierceness of the Zhou Dynasty are enough to be admired.

With tears in his eyes, Shamoke raised his hand and shot one of the generals off his horse.

"Li Yan, my son... in the future, Shamoke will take your head!"

Li Yan was also angry. He waved his command flag and said loudly: "Shuo is going to leave Shamoke, Hugh is going to leave Shamoke..."

Seeing that Shamoko was about to die in a fierce battle, at this moment, a bell sounded suddenly from behind the hill.An iron cavalry suddenly charged out, all in iron armor, with white feathers in their hair.The first general held a silver chain knife in his palm, and when he swung it, he could only hear the melodious sound of jingling bells.

"Sha Houxiu has to worry, and Li Bie Shao has to be rampant...Gan Ning is here, who dares to stop me?"

The silver chain knife whirled, bringing up a shadow of the knife like silver scales, and as the horse passed by, flesh and blood flew across, spraying blood in all directions.

Two more, I implore the monthly ticket to support it.
