Chapter 330: Liu Bei Ji Ce

It is said that Zhang Xun was entrusted with the emperor of the Zhong clan and led an army of 200,000 troops westward to conquer Chen Lang. Zhang Xun led an army to say that he could not go on his way at the same time. When Chen Lang led his army towards Xinye, the army had already arrived in Yiyang County to the east of Xinye. Yiyang, less than two hundred miles east of Xinye, under the control of Yuan Shu, can be said to be the border county of Huainan under the control of Jingzhou and Liu Biao. After Yiyang and continue westward, it is the boundary of Jingzhou.

Zhang Xun ordered the army to rest on the spot. At this moment, the scout led an officer back to report: "Enjoy the general, Liu Bei's messenger is here!" The officer who came with him immediately bowed: "I am hereby the order of my lord Liu Bei to contact him. General!"

Zhang Xun only tapped his chin and asked, "Who are you? Where is Liu Bei now? Where is the enemy now? How many soldiers and horses are there?"

The officer immediately said: "My next name is Mi Fang, and he is a close friend of my Patriarch. Patriarch is currently leading tens of thousands of troops to fight against Chen Lang in Xinye. Chen Lang has entered the vicinity of Xinye with only a hundred thousand soldiers and horses."

Zhang Xun asked in amazement, "Isn't it said that Chen Lang brought an army of 180,000? Why is there only a hundred thousand?"

Mi Fang said, "That was Chen Lang's bluffing! Naturally, this little trick can't hide from the general's magic eyes!" Zhang Xun laughed loudly.

Mi Fang said, "My Patriarch is going to raid Chen Lang ten days later, and I also ask the general to give me support."

Zhang Xun snorted coldly and waved his big hand: "Our army will attack Chen Lang, and your troops will support you!"

Mi Fang hesitated, and said: "If this is the case, then let the generals! But after ten days of attack, the generals should not miss the time! Otherwise, the enemy's reinforcements will arrive, and the battle will be difficult to fight!"

Zhang Xun said unhappily, "Who do you think Zhang Xun is? I will break through Chen Lang and wait for Liu Bei to meet in ten days!" Mi Fang repeatedly promised, "Since the negotiation between you and me has been made, we will go back and return. Go!" Zhang Xun hummed in his nose. Mi Fang bowed to Zhang Xun, turned his horse's head, and flew away.

Zhang Xun snorted coldly, and said in a grumpy manner: "Liu Bei is no more than a dog in the family, so he can't be ashamed to ask me to cope!" The generals agreed, and a general asked: "General, we are going to follow Liu Bei's words, on the tenth Do you attack afterwards?"

The other general said in an unpleasant manner: "What is Liu Bei? What kind of status is the general? How can he obey his mercy! The general can only make decisions!"

Zhang Xun said to the generals: "Don't pay attention to Liu Bei. We will start tomorrow morning, approach Chen Lang in three days, and launch a decisive battle in four days!" The generals agreed in unison, morale was very high.

A general was a little worried and authentic; "Then Chen Lang is not easy to follow. He used to fight against the 18th princes, and even Dong Zhuo's power was defeated by him! Not long ago, he fought more with less, he just forced to retreat. The overlord of the grassland, Ke Bi Neng! Although the opponent's military strength is a little less than ours, they are all of the Byzantine elite tigers and wolves. I am worried..."

Zhang Xun exclaimed displeasedly: "Huh, let others have aspirations to destroy your own prestige! Previously, he was able to resist the 18th princes, but because the 18th princes had their own ghosts and restrained each other and let him take advantage, how could it be considered his ability! As for the previous fight against Xianbei, huh, how can the Xianbei captives hang their teeth, if I were to lead the army, I would have defeated Xianbei! Chen Lang actually almost fell into the enemy line, it is really useless!"

All the ministries will agree, boasting that Zhang Xun is brave and brave! Zhang Xun burst into laughter with pride, and then said to the generals: "The order goes on, today I will rest for 10,000, and I will start tomorrow morning!" The generals agreed in unison.

Mi Fang rushed back to Xinye, met Liu Bei, and reported the content of the dialogue between the two sides to Liu Bei. Liu Bei frowned and nodded, hoping to say: "Since Zhang Xun has agreed, he will definitely not break his promise!"

Mi Zhu said, "Don't worry about this. Yuan Shu has been coveting Jingzhou for a long time. How can he let Chen Lang get involved? Naturally, he would not sit back and watch Chen Lang enter Jingzhou. Coupled with our aggressive generals, I expect Zhang Xun will definitely go west. It will take less than ten days to go to war with Chen Lang!"

Liu Bei smiled and said, "Zi Zhong's judgment has never been wrong!"

Mi Zhu hurriedly said: "The lord overwhelmed the prize!"

Liu Bei looked into the distance and couldn't help muttering: "That Zhang Xun is General Yuan Shu's subordinate, and he will definitely not lose to Chen Lang! If we can take this opportunity to defeat Chen Lang in one fell swoop, I will be able to win the awe of the soldiers and civilians of Jingzhou! It's about my future and destiny, and it's about the future and destiny of the big man. I hope God will bless me!"

Mi Fang said: "The lord is a nobleman in the sky, and he will surely be blessed by the sky!"

Mi Zhu nodded in agreement: "Mi Fang is right!"

Liu Bei smiled, praying silently in his heart.

It is said that Zhang Xun led his 200,000 army to rest for one night in Yiyang, and early the next morning he led the army to leave Yiyang and head towards Xinye! The 200,000 army is mighty, the fine riding is like clouds, the spears are like the forest, the horses are like dragons, the soldiers are like tigers jumping, the smoke and dust are surging, murderous! The 200,000 Yuan Shu army swept toward Xinye like a rolling tide!

auzw.com Two days later, the army arrived in the northern suburbs of Xinye and set up a joint camp for nearly ten miles. Immediately, Zhang Xun sent an envoy to Chen Langjun to drop the war.

When Chen Lang opened the battle book and read it, he saw that it said: "Zhong's General Zhang Xun addressed the Old Han General Chen Lang. This general will punish him. If you know the fate of God, you should surrender to my court as soon as possible. This great general recommends it without losing the high officials. If you do not understand it, this general will not reluctantly. Two days later, you and our army will fight a battle against each other in a battle against each other!"

Chen Lang couldn't help laughing, and said to him, "Is this Zhang Xun a storyteller?"

Coming annoyed, he snorted, and said proudly: "The general does not have to take advantage of his tongue! If the general is afraid, he will surrender immediately, and our general will never treat you badly! If you do not understand, we will leave a word! "

Zhang Fei was furious and cursed: "What is the little thief Zhang Xun! How dare you be so rampant!"

He came to be furious and shouted: "How dare you dare to insult my general!"

Zhang Fei was angry and cursed: "Damn!" He punched him, and the eye socket in the center of Laizhi was hit, and the man's eye socket burst and blood flowed, and he fell to the ground with a scream!

Chen Lang shouted: "Ying De!"

Zhang Fei realized that he had lost his temper and couldn't help complaining: "This guy is full of rants, but he doesn't fight like this!"

Seeing that he was lying motionless on the ground, Guan Yu couldn't help frowning, walked forward, checked it, and quickly stood up and clasped his fists to Chen Lang and said, "Big Brother, this man is dead!"

Chen Lang was taken aback. Jia Xu laughed and cursed: "Yingde, Yide, as the saying goes, the two armies don’t cut off in a fight, and if you beat him to death, doesn’t it appear that the lord has no mind?"

Zhang Fei said dejectedly: "I just wanted to teach him! I didn't expect him to die with just one punch, so useless!"

Chen Lang said unhappily, "If you do anything indiscriminately, I will punish you for a month's salary!"

Zhang Fei grinned and said, "A month's salary, that's nothing!" Seeing Chen Lang's eyes coming, he closed his mouth quickly.

Chen Lang looked at the corpse on the ground and said to Xu Huang, "Send someone to return the corpse to Zhang Xun." Xu Huang clasped his fists and ran down.

Jia Xu smiled and said: "The lord returned the corpse to Zhang Xun, and that was promised to his challenge." Chen Lang smiled and said, "This honor is quite interesting. I really want to see what it is. Guy." Jia Xu smiled and said, "I'm afraid the Lord Guild is very disappointed."

A Longxiang camp cavalry rushed to Zhang Xun's camp with the messenger's corpse, then dropped the corpse and turned his head back.

When the officers and soldiers guarding the camp gate saw this, someone immediately reported to Zhang Xun. Zhang Xun led the crowd to the vicinity of Yuanmen. A general looked at the corpse outside the camp gate, with a look of surprise, and quickly said to Zhang Xun: "General, that seems to be the messenger we sent to Chen Lang to write the war book!"

Zhang Xun frowned when he heard the words, and said anxiously: "Go and bring him in!" Dang even a few officers ran out, brought the corpse in, and placed it in front of Zhang Xun.

Zhang Xun saw that it was indeed the messenger he had sent before, and he was furious, and roared: "What a Chen Lang, dare to kill my messenger! I must let him know how powerful it is!" Will also yelled one after another, and the sentiment was indignant.

At this moment, an officer in the dust rushed into the camp and came to Zhang Xun. Turning over and dismounting, submitted a letter, saying: "General, this is an autographed letter sent by the villain by Yan Xiang."

Zhang Xun frowned, took the letter, opened it, and read it again. Then he yelled: "It's nonsense!" He threw the wooden tablet to the ground, and said to the officer: "You will tell Yan Xiang that his little master book is going to give me some pointers!" The officer did not dare to say anything, so he went on.

A general asked curiously: "General, what did Yan Xiang say?"

Zhang Xun said in an annoyed manner: "What did he say about Chen Lang, wisdom and bravery, the eagle and the army are all elites in battle, and I don't want me to fight against him rashly. I don't know what to say!" The generals also laughed at Yan Xiang, saying that he was a scholar See cowardice and incompetence.

Zhang Xun immediately ignored Yan Xiang's advice and ordered the army to prepare for battle and prepare for a decisive battle with Ying Yang's army two days later. He also ordered people to tell the entire army that if anyone could capture Chen Lang alive, he would recommend him to the emperor to be promoted to the third rank, and he would be awarded a thousand ounces of silver. The officers and soldiers of Yuan Shujun couldn't help getting excited when they heard such a reward, and everyone was eager to try!

Standing on the city wall, Liu Bei looked at the vast military camp outside the city, his expression thoughtful. Mi Fang rushed to report: "Lord, Zhang Xun sent someone to give Chen Lang a statement of war, but Chen Lang killed Zhang Xun's messenger. Now Zhang Xun is furious and has decided to fight Chen Lang two days later!" Liu Bei Overjoyed, "Okay! Immediately send the whole army to prepare for war!" Mi Fang clasped his fists and ran down. Liu Bei looked up at the outside of the city, his frowning brows were already stretched out, and an impulse was surging back and forth in his chest.
