Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang
Chapter 728 I would rather betray others than be betrayed by others
The autumn wind is bleak, one leaf falls to the ground and the eyes are full of desolation——
This autumn in Suanzao County is destined to be more miserable and bitter——
"Tap-ta-"
Heavy footsteps sounded, and Gao Rou followed Zhang Liao, slowly climbing to the top of an empty and deserted high platform.
This high platform was built in the first year of Chuping, that is, the year when Dong Zhuo deposed the young emperor and established King Chenliu as emperor. The eighteen princes attacked Dong and built the "Defending Platform" here!
Now, because no one has cleaned it after many years, the steps are covered with dust and dead leaves.
Zhang Liao and Gao Rou stepped onto the gray steps step by step with very complicated moods.
When he climbed onto the high platform, Zhang Liao suddenly thought of the situation after the alliance to challenge Dong, where etiquette was completely broken, the Han Dynasty was torn apart, and collapsed overnight.
Today, Zhang Liao seems to have experienced the scene of the eighteen princes standing on this high platform at that time. At this moment, he seems to have seen the Wei Dynasty... this prosperous kingdom... is about to fall apart and fall apart.
Zhang Liao couldn't help but shudder.
He had played for Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao, haha... His experience inevitably made him more sentimental and emotional, but when he looked closer, there was nothing on the high platform.
In the silence of the cold night, only Zhang Liao and Gao Rou stood here, their clothes catching the wind. They looked down at the surrounding circles of Han troops outside the city.
It seemed that it was only at this moment that Zhang Liao accepted the fact.
That is Liu Bei and Guan Yu... In the past three years, they have grown into new behemoths respectively, and the Great Wei... and the King of Wei are disintegrating in their hands, and are dying bit by bit——
Suddenly, Gao Rou pointed to the position of the Chinese army in the military camp below the city.
"The biggest one is Guan Lin's tent, right? That treacherous son of the Guan family..."
"The treacherous son of the Guan family!" Zhang Liao chanted such a title, but felt a bit bitter and mocking at the corner of his mouth.
That's right, it was this treacherous son of the Guan family who, with his nonsense and confrontation, as well as his repeated disobedience to his father Guan Yu, helped the Han army turn things around in the past three years and established the current victory in one fell swoop.
Still a traitor?
What kind of traitor is this? This is clearly a mockery of Da Wei! This is simply the Qilin'er of the Guan family!
Thinking of this, Zhang Liao smiled bitterly.
"Without him...the world today would never be like this -"
"Perhaps the Wei Dynasty has captured Jingzhou, and perhaps Soochow Wu will not be destroyed yet. This three-legged situation will not be completely changed in at least three years -"
"perhaps…"
At the end of the sentence, Zhang Liao's throat seemed to be dry. The cruelest thing in the world is that there is no if!
Having said that, who would have thought that a little-known fourth son of the Guan family could stir up the world!
Hindsight...what's the point besides hate?
"Wen Yuan..." Seeing Zhang Liao's loneliness, Gao Rou couldn't help but said: "There is still no news from the king. In fact, you and I both know that the Wei Dynasty has lost. Just like Yuan Shao after the Battle of Guandu in the past, each fought for power. Falling apart...and our persistence may, I mean maybe...have no meaning anymore!"
Gao Rou is the younger brother of Gao Gan. Gao Gan is Yuan Shao's nephew and was once awarded the "Bingzhou Governor" by Yuan Shao. Because of this relationship, Gao Rou is more aware of... the current situation, especially the situation without King Wei. Wei, where will it go...?
This is just another reincarnation!
Zhang Liao stood on one side, staring at the continuous military camps in the distance, and said hoarsely: "The life or death of the king is unknown. As long as he is still alive, as long as he can return to the north, it is too early to tell..."
"But we can't hold on much longer..."
With the sound of "click", Gao Rou clenched his fists. He was born in Yuan Ying and had already experienced a "building is about to collapse". He did not expect that Cao Ying... would still end like this.
"Wenyuan...open your eyes and take a good look. This is not Xiaoyaojin, and Guan Lin is not that Sun Zhongmou. We...we can't hold it! Surrender, otherwise, we will surrender!"
Zhang Liao's back looks lonely...
He can understand Gao Rou's thoughts, but this thought... is not valid for him anyway, and cannot pass the test in his heart.
He asked Gao Rou: "Why do you think Xiang Yu refused to cross the river back then?"
ah…
Gao Rou didn't expect that Zhang Liao would ask him such a question. Gao Rou could only try to reply: "Yes...it's because I have no face to face Jiangdong's elders!"
"Wrong!" Zhang Liao held the hilt of the sword at his waist, his eyes turned blood red, "The world only thinks that Xiang Yu's eight thousand soldiers are his personal soldiers, but who knows that these eight thousand soldiers are Xiang Yu's nine tribes! Wujiang Zhi By the side, he looked up and saw that it was his cousin who was blocking the knife for him. He looked down and saw that it was the severed hand of his clan brother. It was his sister's husband who wanted to stay behind, and it was his uncle who was crying and shouting for him to cross the river. …”
Speaking of this, Zhang Liao's expression became even more lonely, "Xiang Yu can cross the river, but what he has to face is the mother of his childhood playmate, his sister and grandma, all the people who watched him grow up... and accompanied him when he grew up. Dear fellow villagers, these people will ask him expectantly, 'Your Majesty, why didn't my son and grandson come back together? ' But in the end, these people will not blame him, they will only hide the sadness in their eyes and say, 'Although I am old and weak, I can still fight with you.'"
Speaking of this, Zhang Liao seemed to think of himself, and his tears slowly welled up. He quickly wiped away his tears and continued, "...Just like me now, it is easy to surrender, but those fellow countrymen who have fought with me over the years , their sons died on the battlefield, and their grandsons died in a foreign country. If one day I return to my hometown in Bingzhou, they ask me...why I will return home in honor of their dead son and grandson's enemy? How should I explain? If they want to avenge their relatives, how can I face it?"
this…
For a moment, Gao Rou was moved, but his open mouth was choked with sobs, as if sincerely... he couldn't bear to persuade General Wenyuan anymore.
Feel the same…
Suddenly, Gao Rou felt the same.
Just like Xiang Yu, if he crosses the river, he is a defeated Xiang Lang, but if he crosses the river, he is still the overlord of Western Chu;
Similarly, Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan surrendered. He was just a surrendered general of the Han army. But if he had not surrendered, he would still be the God of War of the Wei Dynasty... He would still be the number one hero in Shanxi, and he would be the one who made his fellow villagers give thumbs up. Five good generals!
"So... Wen Yuan, do you want to accept Guan Lin's invitation to fight?"
After pondering for a long time and choking for a long time, Gao Rou asked the last question.
"catch!"
Zhang Liao replied decisively, "But there is one thing. Among the fighting generals...only Zhang Liao died in the battle, and there will never be General Wei Zhengdong who surrendered——"
It was Zhang Liao's last words. In an instant, Gao Rou was in awe of him——
Time has passed, and many years have passed, but he...has not changed!
He is still the God of War in Xiaoyaojin, the righteous man who puts righteousness first——
…
…
"Dong dong dong——"
The morning light was dim, and the sound of drums and shouts soaring into the sky once again awakened this quiet battlefield!
Crunch…
With a sharp sound, the gate of Suanzao County opened. On one side, Zhang Liao and a group of personal guards rode out slowly, and on the other side were the mighty Han army soldiers and horses headed by Guan Lin.
Flags are flying, military discipline is strict, and formations are ready.
Within a moment, smoke and dust billowed, and a broken military flag with the word "Wei" came into view of Guan Lin and all the Han troops.
The personal guards of less than a hundred people, led by Zhang Liao, had already arrived in front of the Han army's formation...
Because we have experienced the attack at Hulao Pass before.
At this moment, these elites of the Wei army...the broken armor and blood-stained robes were particularly obvious.
"Finally, he went out to fight——"
Guan Lin stood on a higher chariot, looking at Zhang Liao... looking at the mighty and powerful Wei War God, especially the crescent halberd in his hand... the "grey shadow" horse sitting down... he couldn't help but There will be some sighs.
Inexplicably, under this situation, he looked a little lonely.
On the other hand, those generals from Jiangdong, who have been generals for so many years, should have a heart that is as solid as iron and it is extremely difficult for them to have emotions. At this moment, looking at Zhang Liao's figure going into battle, they felt a wave of throbbing.
It seemed like he was thinking of the God of War on Xiaoyaojin.
He, he, he...he's at it again.
For a moment, these generals were timid, but when they strengthened their hands and grasped the weapons in their hands more tightly, all the timidity disappeared.
According to Master Yunqi's wishes...this battle is to break this nightmare for them, not to mention, so many people? Such an elite weapon? Are you even more afraid?
at this time…
A roaring roar like a dragon's roar resounded from the Wei army's formation.
"I am Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan, who wants to compete with me?"
When this deafening and aura-filled sound resounded...
Even the entire Han army formation couldn't help but be moved.
A person’s name, a tree’s shadow…
No matter how miserable the Wei Dynasty has been in the past three years, the name Zhang Liao is still as terrifying as ever!
call…
Guan Lin on the chariot shouted softly, and he looked around at the generals in front of him...
Some soldiers have already asked for help.
"Fourth brother, your third sister, I have wanted to learn the martial arts of General Zhang Liao for a long time. Why don't you let me take the lead!"
"Third Miss, no, Zhang Liao's martial arts skills are extraordinary. I, Zhou Cang, should go first! Test his depth, strength, and strength! It won't be too late for you to come up again after I finish the fight!"
"Master Yunqi, our last general Ling Tong...please...please fight——"
"Sir, let me, Gan Ning, go -"
Words of plea for war came out.
Guan Lin's eyes fell on Jiang Wei, "Bo Yue!"
"The general is here!"
"In this battle, it's up to you to show off to the generals!"
"As you command——"
As he spoke, Jiang Wei straightened up his green gun and rode forward...
"Dong dong dong——"
"Dong dong dong——"
For a moment, the drum beat was like thunder, shaking the sky and the earth, as if everyone was cheering and shouting for this young general!
At the same time, everyone's eyes were fixed on him.
Jiang Wei's battle was the first battle, but it was also the decisive battle.
And this battle started with Jiang Wei shouting:
"General Zhang, do you know that Tianshui Jiang Boyue——"
"Those who betray the Lord still have the nerve to fight me. See if I don't kill you on my horse——"
Clang, clang, clang –
The competition began, and extremely brilliant sparks exploded in an instant, extremely brilliant——
…
…
"May I have your name?"
"Li Qiu!"
"Where does your family live? Are there any family members still alive?"
"My family lives in Zhending County, Liangzhou. My father, Li Erhe, and my brother, Li Mu, both died in the Beimang Mountain fire. I was the only one who escaped... while I was out shopping!"
"Then, who recommended you to General Xiahou, so that you can take charge of this king?"
"It's Mr. Li Miao——"
Despite all the hardships, difficulties and obstacles...Cao Cao, Zhang Fang and others still passed through Ziwu Valley, avoiding all searches by Guan Yu, and arrived at the place agreed with Xiahou Dun.
This is after leaving Ziwu Valley, avoiding Lantian County where Guan Yu deployed heavy troops, and heading directly to Chang'an, arriving at the southwest corner of Lishan Mountain.
It is very close to Chang'an City.
But... conventional thinking, even if Cao Cao escaped from Ziwu Valley, he would have gone to Tongguan via Lantian County, and would never have gone in the opposite direction to Chang'an. Therefore... this is also the so-called "darkness under the lamp", which is the most dangerous. A place, but also the safest place.
Cao Cao was still satisfied with Li Miao's choice of the pick-up location...
What even satisfied him the most was that, being suspicious by nature, he sent many scouts to explore the road ahead to ensure nothing was missed, but none of them found any suspicious points at the foot of Lishan Mountain... any ambush. In this way, he dared to go quietly. Arrive here.
Sure enough, there were flying balls densely scattered in Lishan Mountain. Because they were hidden, they were not inflated... they just lay shriveled on the ground.
At the same time, there was also a group of soldiers belonging to the good brother Xiahou Dun, and a flying ball player who was lucky enough to survive from the so-called Great Wei Flying Ball Camp.
Because of Cao Cao's relationship with Xiahou Dun, he had seen many of these soldiers... so he had no suspicion at all.
But Cao Cao seemed to be a bit resigned to this flying ball player, so he asked a lot more questions.
"Your Majesty, do you still have any questions? If not, Your Majesty, please rest for a while, and the younger one will go prepare to fly the ball——"
Guan Xing raised his hands and faced Cao Cao.
Cao Cao waved to him to make arrangements.
In fact, with just these few questions, Cao Cao can't be said to completely trust this flying ball player, but... the situation is urgent, and staying here for another quarter of an hour will increase the danger for an additional quarter of an hour. In addition... Li Miao recommended this person. Cao Cao still trusts his name.
Because, no matter how you say it, Liu Bei punished Li Miao, Zhuge Liang punished Li Miao, and Guan Lin humiliated Li Miao. These things are all ironclad facts.
"Go ahead and make arrangements quickly..."
"Nuo!" Guan Xing handed over his hand and added, "But there is one thing your Majesty needs to know. This flying ball can only carry seven people at most... Please prepare early."
Guan Xing talked eloquently, but did not show the slightest excitement because of seeing Cao Cao.
Following Ling Ju and being part of the "Parrot" assassination organization for a long time has honed his extremely calm character. The closer he is to the target, the more calm he has to be.
"I know, you just need to operate the flying ball well, and the others will arrange it..."
"promise!"
As Guan Xing responded to Cao Cao for the last time, he surrendered and evacuated, and went to the mountains to control the flying ball. The first step was to inflate the flying ball!
Speaking of which, normally, this is just an extremely easy step...
But now, due to insufficient equipment, Guan Xing can only use many alternative devices, many of which even require manpower to complete, and the efficiency of inflation will naturally be much lower.
Of course, all this... Cao Cao saw it all.
However, Zhang Fang noticed the strangeness in Cao Cao's expression and couldn't help but ask Cao Cao in a low voice, "Does the king not trust this Li Qiu?"
Zhang Fang thought... After all, he was a new face, so it was understandable.
Who would have thought that Cao Cao waved his hand directly, "I couldn't trust him just now, but now, I can't trust him..."
this…
Before Zhang Fang could ask questions, Cao Cao chanted again, "He was sent by Han Nan. He has been here for several years. Han Nan is a person that Gu can always trust. In addition, if he has evil intentions, when Gu arrives here, I'm afraid the Qinglong Yanyue Sword has already arrived, and the flying ball...it's obvious that he hid it here in a hurry. It's true that he's missing a lot of things, but it looks more real this way -"
I heard Cao Cao say this...
Zhang Fang handed over his hand, "The king is still very thoughtful, but...he said just now that there can only be seven people riding the flying ball, but here...the king's personal soldiers, the top leaders of the Five Dou Rice Sect and the ghost soldiers, there are more than a thousand people... "
Hear this.
Cao Cao was silent for a moment and closed his eyes slightly.
But soon, his tiger eyes opened again, but they became much firmer, and his voice also chanted at the same time, low, convinced, and determined.
"I would rather betray others than others betray me——"
…
…
The crescent halberd was waved high, making a full moon arc, and Zhang Liao swung down with a powerful and heavy blow.
When Jiang Wei saw the halberd, he raised his spear... held his nerve and faced it directly.
"when--"
A spear and a halberd collided in the air, sparks flew, and a huge force penetrated the hands of the two men.
And this is already the twentieth round of the fight between Jiang Wei and Zhang Liao.
In the previous fight, Jiang Wei showed off his agility in marksmanship. Every time he collided with Zhang Liao's crescent halberd, it always ended abruptly... He immediately retracted it and made indirect attacks...
This also made it possible that even though Zhang Liao was far superior to Jiang Wei in terms of strength and had the upper hand in the battle, he was unable to turn this advantage into victory.
Until this blow...
He saw the opportunity and saw that Jiang Wei was unable to avoid it. This was a forced fight between the two of them... that turned into a competition of strength.
Naturally, he would never do this if he were to fight against Guan Yu.
But, a young major general? Even if he trained his strength from his mother's womb, he would still not be Zhang Liao's opponent.
It should be noted that Zhang Liao's original surname was Nie. He angered the Xiongnu during the Ma Yi plot, and his family changed their surname to Zhang to avoid disaster.
This is a martial arts family with a long history.
And because he took root in Yanmen County, where the Han and Hu people meet, he studied under the martial arts prodigy Zhang Jian (who also taught Lu Bu), who ranked third among the "Zhang family disciples" of his family. He was exposed to the fierce Hu cavalry. Zhang Liao's martial arts and his strength were completely trained in actual combat.
Although Jiang Wei was also like this...
But in terms of experience, Zhang Liao undoubtedly had the upper hand and suppressed Jiang Wei.
"Die--"
With a roar from Zhang Liao, his halberd that came down like a mountain... was a sure kill!
But the unexpected happened overnight...
Just this time, the sharp edge of Jiang Wei's spear, which he swung with all his strength, collided with Zhang Liao's crescent halberd.
With Jiang Wei's already red cheeks, he roared without fear.
"Come on--"
The spear and halberd collided...
Then, with a "click" sound...Zhang Liao's crescent halberd's edge was broken, and the halberd blade flew out with the halberd handle at the top, spinning, breaking and scattering.
And the force brought by this blow...has not been removed.
Zhang Liao was pressed down by the thousand-pound gravity, and he actually jumped up...until the force was removed, he fell heavily to the ground.
He looked extremely embarrassed.
But even so, he still pulled out his sword from his waist with his backhand and stared at Jiang Wei.
Jiang Wei was not aggressive, he turned over and got off the horse, and actually stuck the long spear in his hand into the ground, and also pulled out the sword from his waist.
He faced Zhang Liao, with the blade also pointing at Zhang Liao, and said with a smile:
"General Zhang's crescent halberd doesn't seem very strong, but I wonder if the sword forged by the Wei army is strong? Can it block my sword?"
"Looking for death--"
Zhang Liao shouted, enduring the pain on his body, and quickly stepped forward to the sword.
Jiang Wei bit his lip slightly, then held the knife in both hands and stepped forward, chanting the word "broken"——
