Zhao Yi led his thousand troops, lightly armed and simple, and marched quickly, passing through several Soochow roads. By chance, he met Zhou Yu's cheap father-in-law Liu Bei who intercepted him.
When Zhou Yu heard the sound, he turned around on his horse and saw a group of men and horses rushing towards him at full speed. The leader was a young general who was not wearing armor and was wearing strange clothes. He was holding a horse rein in one hand and a long metal pipe in the other. But Isn't it the immortal disciple, Zhao Yi and Zhao Hongfei? Of course, it was also the fake Zhuge Liang he was familiar with.
"Hongfei? It's Hongfei! Hongfei save me~~~!"
Liu Bei waved excitedly on horseback, while Zhao Yi took the lead, holding a long gun with one hand, pulling the bolt with his foot to load the gun, leaning sideways on the galloping horse, aiming forward, and loudly said: "Everyone~~~~raise the gun gun!"
Following Zhao Yi were his core group of 100 people. Each of these 100 people had a rifle in their hands. They all heard the sound of "click, click, click". They all imitated Zhao Yi and loaded the rifle with the soles of their feet. Hold it flat in front of you.
Over at Zhou Yu, Gan Ning couldn't help but feel his teeth tingling when he heard this familiar yet unfamiliar sound.
"It's him! What should we do now? If we insist on taking Liu Bei back, the alliance between the two families will be completely torn apart!"
Zhou Yu naturally did not need Gan Ning to remind him. He simulated countless endings in his mind in a very short time, overturning his decision again and again. Finally, he sighed softly and said:
"Everyone give way, we respectfully send Uncle Liu Huang back to Jingzhou, but... Uncle Huang, Gong Jin only has one request. He wants to use the two generals under Uncle Huang to help me capture Jiangling City. By then, not only Nanjun , I will also lend the public security to the emperor's uncle, and our Sun and Liu families should help each other and fight against Cao's thieves."
Zhou Yu said it nicely, but Liu Bei was not in the mood to ridicule him now.
"Hongfei~~~My good son-in-law~!"
Liu Bei ignored Zhou Yu and others and rode his horse to meet Zhao Yi. When he was surrounded by Zhao Yi and his party, he finally put his hanging heart into his stomach.
"My lord, don't be afraid. You are already safe. With Hongfei here, I, the King of Heaven, can't even think of taking you away."
"Okay, okay..."
Liu Bei survived the disaster. He no longer had the energy to speak too much. After saying "Okay" three times in a row, he was surrounded by soldiers and slowly retreated.
However, they saw that Zhao Yi, Lu Lingqi, Ma Liu and Samoko, were still moving forward slowly, approaching Gan Ning and others only when they had arrows in their bows, they stopped.
"Captain Zhou, long time no see. You are still so gloomy and unpleasant to watch."
Zhao Yi did not give Zhou Yu face. He knew that the governor of Jiangdong had no good intentions at all. He had reason to suspect that the people who attacked him during the Battle of Chibi were sent by Zhou Yu.
There was no obvious emotional change on Zhou Yu's face. Even though Liu Bei had escaped, he still kept smiling.
"Zhuge Kongming, oh no, I should call you Zhao Yi and Zhao Hongfei. It's been a long time since I last saw you. I would also like to congratulate you on becoming Uncle Liu Huang's son-in-law. What I just said will trouble you to go back and tell your father-in-law that I can lend you Nanjun." He and the police can also lend him, but Guan Yu and Zhang Fei must help me from Jiangdong to capture Jiangling. If Cao Ren doesn't retreat for a day, you and I will never have a peaceful life in Jingzhou."
Zhao Yi coolly turned the rifle in his hand and put it into the warehouse like a magic trick. He said with a smile: "Of course, there is no need for the commander to remind you. Now that my lord has received it, I won't bother you to see it off. Please come back. I will also wait for our military advisor and second master here, and then I will pick them all up and return."
"Haha..." Zhou Yu chuckled and said, "Then we won't give it away. See you later."
"See you later~!"
Zhao Yi cuddled his fists carelessly towards Zhou Yu and others, watching the latter and his group disappear at the end of the road.
After a while, Guan Yu and his party came one after another along the road. When Zhao Yi saw Sun Shangxiang, his heart obviously tightened. He squeezed out a smile and wanted to talk to him, but the latter didn't even look at him. Just leave.
"It's over. This girl didn't even give me a chance to explain, and now she's become my father-in-law's concubine... Isn't this relationship too complicated?"
Zhao Yi scratched his nose awkwardly and muttered to himself.
Lu Lingqi saw his embarrassment, rode her horse closer and said, "What? Is there any relationship between the master and the mistress that should not be disclosed to outsiders?"
Zhao Yi could hear the inexplicable jealousy in Lu Lingqi's words, slapped the latter's butt, and scolded the latter with a smile: "Don't pry if you shouldn't. In the future, don't hang out with Ma Liu and the others, or you will become a bad mother-in-law sooner or later~ ! Everyone, withdraw your troops~ Let’s go home~!”
"Bapo? What is Bapo?"
Lu Lingqi was puzzled by what she heard, but Zhao Yi didn't bother to explain to her. He put his legs under the horse's belly and walked away, leaving the long-legged dark-skinned girl still wondering in her mind what the eighth wife meant.
Liu Bei's marriage trip to Jiangdong was like a year, walking on thin ice. Now that he finally returned to Jingzhou, he breathed a sigh of relief.
On the way back, Zhuge Liang approached Zhao Yi, patted the latter on the shoulder and said, "Hongfei, you came just in time."
"That's it~~ After receiving the secret message from the military advisor, we packed up and went into battle without stopping, and marched all the way to get here. Zhou Yu was full of bad ideas this time. From now on, Jiangdong will come as little as possible. Anyway, Jingzhou is ours now. By the way, Zhou Yu asked me to take a message, saying that not only Nanjun, but also the police could lend it to us, but he wanted the second master and the third master to help him capture Jiangling City. It seems that Cao Ren has made the governor suffer a lot."
Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "Indeed, Cao Ren is a good guard in the city, and Zhou Yu's plan is also very good. He wants to draw our troops to Nanjun, so he will not care about Jiangxia. Jiangxia is bordering Sun Quan's power. If we continue Taking Jiangling will cut our territory into two parts from the middle, but we will not let him succeed. Although Jiangling City must be fought and we must occupy Nanjun, it is not him who will cut our territory, but us. Let Jiangling City be isolated.”
Zhao Yi looked at Zhuge Liang, whose eyes flashed with coldness, and gained some new understanding of this military advisor.
After Liu Bei fled back to his new territory, Sun Quan kept his promise and lent Nanjun, including Gong'an County.
Liu Bei regained the initiative. While recuperating and developing the four counties in Jingnan, he sent Guan Yu and Zhang Fei north to reinforce Zhou Yu.
Guan Erye was extremely brave. He and Sun Quan's general Su Fei led 2,000 soldiers and a very small naval force. They withstood Cao's army's five reinforcements led by Xu Huang, Le Jin, Man Chong, Wenpin, and Li Tong, and cut off the North Road. All hope left Cao Ren isolated and helpless in Jiangling City.
Compared to his second brother, Mr. Zhang did not hesitate to make more concessions. He helped Zhou Yu storm Jiangling City guarded by Cao Ren. His bravery made all the Soochow generals dumbfounded.
When the black-faced Mr. Zhang got to the point of fighting, he took off his armor and went into battle shirtless. He led the soldiers to the top of the city and almost opened the gate of Jiangling City from the inside.
To say that Cao Ren is really good at fighting, he intercepted Zhou Yu at the gate of Jiangling City for more than half a year. Even now with the help of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he still held on until the last soldier, giving Cao Cao enough breathing space in the north. , and then withdrew all troops in the winter of 209 AD.
