Three Kingdoms: The ghost plotter taught Liu Bei to seize Jingzhou first

The iron lock formation was broken?

Wankou fell?

Ling Tong was captured?

Sun Ce seemed to be struck by several thunderbolts at the same time, making his head dizzy in an instant.

Cheng Pu on the side also looked shocked, and his old face was immediately filled with incredible horror. just now.

Didn't Sun Ce still feel confident, assuring him that Lu Meng was reliable and could carry the heavyweight?

In the blink of an eye, this young star, who was even more outsmarted than Zhou Yu, actually lost the Anhui defense line?

Even though Cheng Pu didn't trust Lu Meng very much, he was still shocked by the news at this moment.

"How impeccable was the iron lock plan to block the river, but was it so easily defeated by the big-eared thief?"

Cheng Pu didn't believe it. He jumped off his horse and tried to snatch Lu Meng's handwritten letter from the courier.

Sun Ce suddenly woke up and snatched it from Cheng Pu's hand.

Full of doubts, he couldn't wait to open the battle report.

Lu Meng took the entire The story of the defeat was written clearly.

Although in his letter, he tried his best to state how he fought bloody battles and how he had to abandon Wankou and retreat eastward in order to preserve his strength for Sun Ce when he was defeated in a deadly battle.

But Lu Meng did not Dare to conceal the truth, or tell the truth about how Liu Bei broke through his iron lock formation with a raft of fire

"The fire raft breaks the iron lock, the fire raft breaks the iron lock…"

"Lu Meng's iron lock formation is not invulnerable, why didn't I think of it!"

"Damn it, damn it! Sun

Ce, who suddenly realized this, felt remorseful and angry, and tore Lu Meng's letter into pieces.

Cheng Pu also understood the reason, and there was deep confusion on his old face, and he said in confusion:

"Lu Meng's plan of blocking the river with iron chains was indeed ingenious."

"That big-eared thief, how did he come up with the idea of ​​using fire attacks to crack it?"

A name suddenly flashed into Sun Ce's mind.

"Deng Mu!"

"Who else but that treacherous man could come up with such a method!"

Sun Ce gritted his teeth and read out the name.

Deng Mu!

This thundering name shocked Cheng Pu.

As the most trusted veteran among the three veterans, Cheng Pu assisted Sun Quan in guarding Jianye all year round.

Until successive After the disastrous defeat, Sun Ce had to transfer Cheng Pu to monitor Taishi Ci.

Therefore, this veteran general only heard about Deng Mu, but had never personally experienced Deng Mu's various schemes and tricks.

To this day,

Sun Ce himself speculated that, It was when Deng Mu proposed a plan to Liu Bei and used fire to break through the iron lock formation.

It was only then that Cheng Pu saw what he saw and realized for himself the terror of this man.

"Is this thief really as resourceful as the rumors say? Cheng

Pu gasped and asked in disbelief.

Sun Ce didn't want to admit it, but he had to admit it, so he could only nod his head bitterly:

"This thief is scheming and cunning. He is a rare cunning person in the world."

"Even if Gong Jin died in his poisonous scheme, the deaths of two old generals, Gong Fu and Yi Gong, could not be separated from his involvement."

Hearing that both old brothers died due to Deng Mu's plan, Cheng Pu became furious in an instant.

"It turns out that my two old brothers died under this thief’s trick!"

"I will kill this thief with my own hands to comfort their souls in heaven!"

What Cheng Pu hates is that he gnashed his teeth and vowed again.

The two principals and ministers were immersed in anger.

"Lord, General Cheng"

"No matter who in the Iron Lock Formation proposed the plan to Liu Bei, it is an indisputable fact that the big-eared thief has now broken through the Wankou defense line."

"As a last resort, we have no choice but to retreat to Jianye immediately."

Zhu Zhi was the first to regain his composure and quickly reminded him.

Sun Ce's figure shivered, and he immediately calmed down and shuddered. As soon as

Wankou was lost, Liu Bei's land and sea army could go east along the Yangtze River and attack Jianye.

At this point, is it still important whether we can capture Jing County and bring peace to Taishi Ci?

Of course it is not important.

Even if it is captured now, it has no meaning.

Because with the loss of the Yangtze River water rights, Liu Bei can divide his troops southward at any time and cut off The connection between Jingxian County and Jianye.

Once established, he cannot hold on to it.

Retreating to Jianye is his only choice.

"Lu Ziming, Lu Ziming, it seems that I overestimated you."

"You and Gong Jin are almost the same, after all, you are no match for Deng Mu..."

Sun Ce let out a disappointed and helpless sigh, and waved his hand feebly:

"The order was sent to the army to retreat immediately, by land and starry night, to retreat to Jianye."

The order was passed, and the Jiangdong Army that was attacking the city retreated like a tide.

That night,

Sun Ce led his last 20,000 troops, marched eastward at starry night, and fled towards Jianye. The crumbling Jing County City finally turned the corner, and everyone Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Taishi Ci did not dare to be careless, thinking that Sun Ce was just retreating temporarily, and there would be another more violent attack the next day. It was not until dawn the next day that

Taishi Ci was surprised to find that the people outside the city The Jiangdong Army camp was deserted.

Sun Ce miraculously led his army to retreat after leaving a mess.

"I can hold on for three days at most, and Jingxian County will be broken."

"Why did Sun Ce suddenly retreat at this last moment?"

Looking at the empty enemy camp outside the city, Taishi Ci's face was full of confusion.

Just when he was confused and suspicious, Xizuo brought back a secret report from the Yangtze River.

"Report to General Taishi"

"Then Liu Bei used a fire attack to break through the iron lock blocking the river by Jiangdong Army and captured Wankou."

"Now Liu Bei's 60,000 land and sea army are heading towards Jianye!"

Tai Shi Ci was shocked and his expression suddenly changed.

He finally understood why Sun Ce let him go.

It turned out that Anhui had fallen and Jianye was in danger. The little overlord was forced to withdraw his troops and rush to save his lair. Got it

"In just one month, he defeated Chaisang first, then Wankou, and killed Sun Ce like a frightened bird!"

"Is this Liu Xuande still the Liu Bei I met in Beihai?"

Taishici looked in the direction of Wankou in a daze. The scene when he first met Liu Bei emerged in his mind. At that time, Liu Bei was just a plain county magistrate.

The deepest impression left on him was that he was just a plain man. Just the word"righteousness".

The other literary and military strategies are all mediocre.

But such an ordinary little county magistrate!

He actually killed Zhang Ji, destroyed Liu Biao, and defeated Cao Cao!

Now he even killed the little Jiangdong magistrate. Overlord, losing troops and generals, retreating steadily.

After the capture of Jingzhou, he has the power to conquer even Jiangdong!

The small county magistrate back then has now become the overlord. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu novels net!)

"Could it be true that as the rumors said, Liu Xuande was assisted by that strange man named Deng and has skyrocketed since then?"

"Could it be that I was blind and really made a mistake?"

Tai Shi Ci murmured to himself, his mind was surging and he fell into deep thought.

…

In the summer of that year, Lü Meng and Sun Ce led two groups of troops to shrink across the board from land and water to Jianye City.

Liu Bei commanded an army of 60,000, marched eastward from Wankou and attacked Jianye.

Along the way, Hulin, Chungu, Nanling and other cities on both sides of the Yangtze River were all watching the wind.

Sixty thousand soldiers of the Liu Army have approached the Niuzhu Fortress west of Jianye City.

At nightfall, the Chinese army's tent was opened.

Liu Bei summoned the generals to discuss strategies to defeat Jianye.

And a sand table with a radius of thirty miles from Jianye City, drawn by Pang Tong himself, was also placed in the tent.

"Jianye City is a fortified city rebuilt by Sun Ce on the basis of Moling City. It is built along the river, with tigers and dragons nestled between them."

"This city is the heart of Jiangdong. If the Lord conquers this city, Jiangdong can be conquered."

"In order to defeat Jianye, our army must first capture Niuzhu Ferry, seven miles upstream of Jianye."

"It was expected that Sun Ce would gather the remaining land and water troops and horses at Niuzhu Crossing and hold on there."[]

"Therefore, our next battle will focus on how to capture Niuzhu."

Pang Tong pointed to the sand table and told the truth about Jianye's defense.

In the past two years of traveling in Jiangdong, he not only got to know Jiangdong's celebrities, but also knew the topography and geography of Jiangdong well.

Liu Bei nodded slightly and looked at Deng Mu:

"Ziyu, what do you think of what Shiyuan said?"

Deng Mu nodded slightly:

"What Shi Yuan said is the right way to defeat Jianye"

"There was nothing fancy about the next battle. The lord used our army's overwhelming advantage to attack Uzhu from both land and water!"

Deng Mu and Pang Tong reached an agreement on the strategy.

Liu Bei naturally had no objections, so he wanted to discuss with the generals the strategy of using troops to attack Niuzhu.

"Lord, Su thinks that before we attack Niuzhu, we must first eliminate all hidden dangers."

0 Please give me flowers 0

Lu Su, who had been silent, suddenly interrupted the discussion.

Liu Bei turned back to look at Lu Su and asked:

"Zijing, which road are you referring to as a hidden danger?"

Lu Su walked from the sand table to the map and pointed toward the southwest of Jianye:

"What Su was referring to was Taishi Ci who was entrenched in the Jingxian area."

"This man was brave and good at fighting. Although he did not have many soldiers and horses under his command, Sun Ce was unable to do anything after several expeditions."

"I know that Sun Ce will definitely reconcile with him next, and persuade Tai Shi Ci to use troops against us with the principle of lips dying and teeth cold."

"If Taishi Ci leads his army to the west, he can enter Yuzhang County, endanger Chaisang, and risk cutting off our retreat."

"Su thought that if he didn't get rid of this person first, the lord would not be able to attack Niuzhu with all his strength without any worries."

Hearing Lu Su's reminder, Old Liu couldn't help but feel slightly moved.

Donglai Taishi Ci.

Speaking of which, he can be called an old friend who has shared hardships together.

Thinking back to a few years ago, he was still a county magistrate in Pingyuan. That is true obscurity.

The yellow scarf soldiers of Qingzhou surrounded Beihai, and their prime minister Kong Rong was defeated. He was besieged in Duchang City and was in danger.

At the time of crisis, it was Taishi Ci who single-handedly broke out of the siege and went to the plains to attack him. He moved to save his life.

After that, he led his troops and rushed to Beihai with Taishi Ci. The two fought side by side, broke the Yellow Turban in Beihai, and rescued Kong Rong.

From that time, Taishi Ci's bravery and good fighting skills left him with Made a deep impression

"What Zijing said makes sense"

"Taishi Ziyi is a tiger general in the world. He is unparalleled in bravery and must not be underestimated."

Old Liu immediately became vigilant and was quite wary of Taishi Ci in his words. However,

Huang Zhong was inspired to fight and said proudly:

"Why should the lord be afraid of a mere Taishi Ci?"

"Please give me 10,000 elite soldiers, and I will lead your army straight to Jingxian County, capture the man alive and offer him to your lord! Liu

Bei stroked his slender beard and thought that with Huang Zhong's strength, it would be perfect to deal with Taishi Ci.

Looking at the army, except for Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, it seemed that only Huang Zhong could suppress Taishi Ci in the land battle.

"Military advisor, what do you think? Liu

Bei was not good at making decisions, so he naturally asked Deng Mu for his opinion.

Deng Mu did not answer, but asked:

"Since the lord knows that Tai Shi Ci is the most powerful general in the world, why didn't the lord recruit him into his command at Beihai?"

"Ah this, cough cough……"

There was a hint of embarrassment on Old Liu's face.

Deng Mu also knew that his question was really exposing Lao Liu's scars.

With the"shabby" condition of Lao Liu back then, how could he not be tempted to recruit when he met a powerful general like Tai Shici who was second only to the"Five Tiger Generals"?

It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I don’t have the capital.

Nothing else.

It was just that he was too weak at the time.

At that time, Lao Liu was just a small Pingyuan county magistrate. In terms of strength and reputation, he would probably have to be found from the bottom among the rankings of princes in the world.

Taishi Ci was not a time traveler like him and could not predict the future, so how could he possibly know that Lao Liu would become famous one day.

So after rescuing Beihai, they decisively responded to Liu Yao's call and went to Jiangdong to seek refuge with Liu Yao.

After all, Liu Yao was a well-known figure in the world, a member of the Han clan with a strong family background, and a Yangzhou shepherd certified by the imperial court. His status was several orders of magnitude higher than that of Liu Yao.

Old Liu estimated that he knew how much he weighed, and he was too embarrassed to recruit Tai Shici, a tiger general. He could only watch him leave Jiangdong.

That feeling, sad…

"Maybe, Bei and Taishi Ziyi have no relationship with each other."

Old Liu sighed and had to find a less embarrassing reason for himself.

Deng Mu smiled secretly, and without exposing Old Liu, he followed the flow and said:

"Fate is something you can't say for sure. Sometimes it comes and goes."

"At that time, my lord and Taishi Ci had no fate, but now they are both in Jiangdong, so their fate has been renewed."

Liu Bei was stunned for a moment. He heard something in Deng Mu's words and hurriedly said:

"Ziyu, what do you mean?"

Deng Mu smiled faintly and said unhurriedly:

"Mu means, if the lord is interested, I can find a way to renew the relationship between the lord and Taishi Ci and recruit him to join the lord." As soon as these words came out,

Liu Bei was so excited that he almost jumped up.
