King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 938 Kong Ming Thaumaturgy
"Is this... the head of Liu Bei?" Li Lin sighed slightly as he folded his hands behind his back and looked at the head placed on a boulder with frown.After getting the order from Zhao Yun, Tai Shici didn't dare to neglect, so he rushed to Li Lin to present Liu Bei's head, but he said with a smile on his face, "Master, look, this is Liu Bei's head, then Liu Bei The old man is very cunning, fortunately he is not very good at equestrian skills, and I caught up with him while fleeing in panic, and killed him with one move!"

Li Lin's eyes were deep, and he stared carefully at the bloody head in front of him. After more than ten years of fighting, Li Lin had long been accustomed to blood, and of course he didn't react to such stumps, broken arms or even human heads, but he looked at Liu Bei in front of him. , Li Lin was a little puzzled, "Although Liu Bei has not yet reached the status of a generation of heroes, he definitely has the temperament of a king and a landlord. After all, he can be regarded as a member of the royal family, and he was also a shepherd in Xuzhou back then. Even if the character was a little panicked when he was about to die, he should have a dignified look, or an expression of unwillingness, but the one in front of him...

panic!fear!Unlimited fear, even an old soldier on the battlefield is more calm in the face of death than the head in front of him who is still staring. Such eyes, such an expression, what's the matter with Liu Xuande?In addition, Tai Shici said that Liu Bei's equestrian skills are not good. Yes, compared with Tai Shici, Liu Bei's equestrian skills are definitely not as good, but after all, Liu Bei has been fighting for many years. Although his equestrian skills are not top-notch, they are still superb. Liu Bei can be regarded as a warrior, but Guan Yu beside him, Zhong Yao is too outstanding to compare him, when life and death, Liu Bei is the best at escaping, how could it be so easy for Tai Shici to be in front of him? In the chaos, he rode his horse to catch up with a shot and stabbed him down?
wrong!What's wrong!But this head is placed here, how could it be...

"Hey!" Pang Tong was a little amused when he saw Tai Shici, the general of the Liao Army, who was asking for credit in front of Li Lin. He took a deep look at Liu Bei's head on the stone, and asked in doubt, "My lord, is there something wrong?" ?" Hearing what Pang Tong said, Zhao Yun looked at the leader with some reluctance, and interjected hesitantly: "If the general looks good, this should be Liu Xuande..."

"Really?" Li Lin frowned, shook his head and smiled wryly: "Something is wrong, we are likely to be put together again..." After thinking about it, Li Lin was even more sure that Liu Bei with Zhuge Liang was there, Where is it so easy to be killed......

"Huh?" Pang Tong, Tai Shici, and Zhao Yun beside Li Lin were all a little stunned, not understanding the meaning of Li Lin's words. At this moment, two soft shouts came from a distance, and they shouted almost simultaneously: "My lord, finally Will come back to life!"

Everyone turned their heads to look, but they saw Li Tong and Gao Lan approaching in big strides, saying in unison, "King Liao, the last general has fulfilled his mission and killed Liu Bei and took his head..." As they were speaking, the two They looked at each other with suspicion in their eyes.

"What did you just say? You killed Liu Bei?" Li Tong frowned and looked at Gao Lan. Not to be outdone, Gao Lan raised his head and stared back: "Here is the head, how can there be a fake? On the contrary, you Dare to lie..." After speaking half a sentence, Gao Lan saw Li Tong raised his head in his hands in amazement, and his voice stopped abruptly after a look.

"This..." Pang Tong, who was stroking his beard, stared straight at him, not to mention Tai Shici, who looked as if he had seen a ghost.Feeling something was wrong, Li Tong and Gao Lan shrank their heads and put Liu Bei's head on the boulder in their respective hands. Zhao Yun looked at this scene in astonishment and muttered to himself, "How is that possible?"

Before everyone recovered from the accident, Zhu Ling, Han Hao, Shi Huan and other generals of the Liao army came to return to their orders one after another, more or less, all holding a head in their hands. On the side of the boulder, there was a row of Liu Bei's heads. The scene was quite strange. Everyone present was speechless. Watching more and more Liu Bei's heads on the stone in front of him, Li Lin covered his forehead speechlessly. .

"What's the situation?" Tai Shici stepped forward and turned Liu Bei's head with wide eyes, but in his eyes, it seemed that every one was that Liu Bei...

Kong Ming!Kong Ming!How many immortal spells are there on these three pages of your heavenly book!Looking at those heads solemnly, Pang Tong glanced at Li Lin secretly, thoughtful in his heart, he had already realized the whole story of this matter, Zhuge Liang must have used the heavenly script to do something wrong, but of course Pang Tong would not He would say it, but the other generals were calmer and did not speak. Maybe even if Li Lin interrogated Pang Tong, Pang Tong would not easily tell about Zhuge Liang. After all, everyone has secrets, and they also have secrets that should be kept. , although he is an enemy, Pang Tong still maintains his bottom line. Of course, Li Lin will not ask Pang Tong, Pang Tong's natural way of Li Lin's temper......

"Hey!" Li Lin smiled bitterly, and murmured, "I'm really not reconciled!" Seeing so many identical heads, Li Lin was not as surprised as everyone else, but was very calm. It reminded Li Lin that Zhuge Liang seemed to be out of Qishan at that time, and used several of his fake bodies to deflect Cao Jun. Zhuge Liang can use it against Sima Yi, and of course he can use it against himself...

"Shi Yuan!" Shaking his head, turning around and looking at the darkened sky, Li Lin said rather depressedly: "It seems that Liu Bei's death earlier was just a bluff, the real Liu Xuande should be hidden among those common people ?” Possibly the only ones present who understood the matter almost completely were Pang Tong and Li Lin, so Li Lin asked Pang Tong such words.

"What the lord said is true!" Pang Tong nodded, and said in agreement: "It must be to confuse us, so that we can focus on chasing those 'fake Liu Bei'. Get away, after all, if we find Liu Bei's trace, we will naturally not pay attention to the people... Now, Liu Bei may have crossed the river, right? From under my nose..."

"What?" Before Li Lin could speak, Tai Shici's complexion changed drastically, and he pointed to those heads and said in surprise, "Then these..."

"These? Huh!" Li Lin snorted softly, frowned and shouted, "It's just a blindfold!" As soon as the words fell, sure enough, the eyes gradually disappeared, and those heads of Liu Bei suddenly revealed their original colors. It seems that the sunlight is energy. !

"This... who are these?" Li Tong's eyes widened, Gao Lan beside him took a closer look, and said with a wry smile, "How do I know... whoever I love? It's not Liu Bei anyway!"

"It's better!" Li Lin pinched the bridge of his nose tiredly, Zhao Yun coughed beside him, waved his hands and told the soldiers beside him, "Take them all down!"

"Promise!" More than a dozen soldiers stepped forward and took the fake heads of Liu Bei down for burial.Seeing all the Cao generals bowed their heads and remained silent, Li Lin waved his hands and said, "Okay, let's call it a day. After fighting for half a day, the brothers must be tired too..."

"Then Liu Bei..." Pang Tong hesitated for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "My lord, since Liu Bei has already crossed the river, he is heading south to Jiangling. It is better to send a light cavalry to chase after him. In my opinion, even if Liu Bei speeds up his horse with the whip, he is not as good as our army's Qing cavalry. If the Xiaoqi Battalion is dispatched, maybe before sunrise tomorrow, they can..."

"My lord!" Hearing what Pang Tong said, Zhao Yun did his part, stepped forward and shouted in a deep voice: "My lord, please give me an order. The last general Ling Xiaoqiying will definitely not disappoint my lord. I vow to capture and kill Liu Bei!" Of course, Zhao Yun stood up at this time It is also because he once let Liu Bei escape.

"Well..." Li Lin frowned and thought about it, then ordered in a concentrated voice: "Okay! Zilong, I order you to travel day and night to Changbanpo. I think Liu Bei must pass through this place!"

"Changbanpo? Promise!" Zhao Yun was a little confused, but he still clasped his fists to obey.

"Ziyi!"

"The end is here!"

"I order you to lead the troops to the outside of Xiangyang City immediately, and set up camp at a distance of [-] miles. After a day or two, I will lead the army to come!"

"The general will understand!" Tai Shici responded with clasped fists.

"The rest of the generals will rectify their troops and return to Fancheng!" Li Lin shouted with a big wave of his hand.

"No!" Everyone clasped their fists and retreated.

Seeing that all the generals retreated one by one, Pang Tong saw that there was no one around, and sighed in a low voice: "My lord?"

"Huh?" Li Lin raised his eyebrows and looked at Pang Tong.

Pang Tong said slowly: "I think that Liu Bei can escape this time, but not each other!"

Li Lin nodded and said, "Well, what Shi Yuan said is true!"

"That, King Liao..."

"Huh? It's okay for Shi Yuan to speak up if he has something to say!"

"Yes! Your servant means that this place is at least twenty or thirty miles away from Fancheng. Why don't we ride a horse?"

"... Cough! Oh!" Li Lin nodded embarrassingly. Now that he was in a mess, he was a little flustered.

At the same time, as Li Lin and Pang Tong expected, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang's party had indeed crossed the river. In fact, from the beginning, Liu Bei only showed up outside Fancheng City, and then mixed with Guan Yu and Chen Dao. Among the common people, at that time, Liu Pan was killed by Tai Shici because of this reason.

Those "fake Liu Bei" were changed into Liu Bei's face by Zhuge Liang using the technique of the book of heaven, and sneaked out of the carriage at intervals to attract the attention of the Liao army, so that Liu Bei and his subordinates, who were mixed in the flood of people, could escape safely. At Yinshi, Liu Bei and his party successively came to the previously scheduled place to meet up.After checking, there are only more than 1 soldiers of the original Liu Bei army beside Liu Bei, and now there are more than [-] soldiers of the more than [-] Fancheng soldiers, most of whom were killed or fled. exist…………

"Huh..." Everyone in Liu Bei, who was finally out of danger, breathed a long sigh of relief. Even a fierce general like Guan Yu leaned against a big tree and wiped his Qinglongyanyue knife. Seeing his exhaustion, Liu Bei comforted the remaining soldiers while sending people to survey the terrain, and most of the civil servants were already tired and out of breath...

"Hey!" Liao Pi breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Zhuge Liang beside him and said, "Kong Ming is really good at it!"

Zhuge Liang's improvement was also poor, and he was still shaking his feather fan. When he heard Liao Pi's words, he smiled faintly and said, "Even if you can fool Li Lin, you can't fool that Pang Tong, Pang Shiyuan!"

Liao Pi asked suspiciously: "Kong Ming said so, so Li Lin or Pang Tong has already expected our actions?"

"Liang has a feeling!" Glancing at Liao Pi, Zhuge Liang frowned and said, "Whether it's burning Xinye or I wait to throw Fancheng, it seems that we can't escape the enemy's schemes!"

"Hehe!" Liao Pi shook his head and said with a wry smile, "When we were defeated in Xinye, Xiangyang could not join us, so we had to join Jiangling. Based on this calculation, Li Lin naturally knew where we were going. What's wrong with that?"

"No, no, Liang didn't mean that!" Shaking his head, Zhuge Liang murmured, "It's just a feeling that everything is in his hands? Phew! That's all, maybe Liang is a little tired..." Actually Just a few days after Zhuge Liang and Li Lin fought, they could already see Li Lin's biggest advantage in each battle, that is, being good at using power.This is Li Lin's greatest strength that has been invincible in the north for more than ten years!
Over there, Liu Bei went to appease his wife and children, and then slowly came back. He turned to Zhuge Liang and asked, "Military Master, it's not too late. Let me go on my way first?"

"Yeah!" Zhuge Liangliang nodded, took out the marching map, looked deeply at it for a few times, suddenly felt moved, turned to Liao Pi and said, "Ziheng, according to Liang's calculation, Li Lin probably won't stop here, Lao Ziheng will take a step ahead. Rush to Jiangling day and night, ask for help from Mr. Liu Qi, and I will meet here!" Zhuge Liang pointed to a place on the marching map.

"This is..." Liao Pi looked around, looked up at Zhuge Liang suspiciously, and murmured, "Changbanpo?"

"Yeah!" Zhuge Liangliang nodded, with a gleam in his eyes.

Not to mention that Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and others are still discussing the route, but outside Xiangyang City, many people from Fancheng have already gathered.A large number of people blocked the gate of the city, and it was completely blocked. Afterwards, Tai Shici, the vanguard general of the Liao army, led [-] Liao troops across the river, and camped [-] miles outside the city of Xiangyang under the eyes of everyone.Immediately, people in Xiangyang were in turmoil, the gates of the city were closed tightly, and countless Jingzhou soldiers rushed to the city defenses, trembling for fear that the Liao army would attack the city.As the current half owner of Xiangyang, Cai Mao is clearly at ease. He entertained Guo Tu at the house, and the two drank and chatted, not as nervous outside...
