"Han Sheng's sword skills have reached a state of perfection!" Wei Yan also exclaimed in front of the formation.
Although King Gongsun was born with supernatural power, his moves were very crude and he almost relied on instinct and experience to fight. In the past, he relied on his strength and strength to defeat ten enemies with one force. The opponent could not withstand his heavy hammer at all, so he was naturally invincible.
Yesterday, Wei Yan had a fight with him. He didn't realize how powerful this man was, and because he underestimated the enemy and was eager to make meritorious deeds, he was beaten to the point of weakness after more than a dozen blows.
But when encountering a top military general like Huang Zhong, who was prepared in advance, the advantage of his martial arts became apparent. All the brute force was resolved by Huang Zhong, leaving him at a loss.
The Central Plains has been devastated by wars, and the fighting techniques have been continuously refined and gradually formed their own system, which is beyond the comprehension of King Gongsun.
Zhang Yi sighed from the side: "I don't know how General Guan compares with General Huang."
Zhuge Liang raised his feather fan to remind the two of them: "Don't lift it, don't lift it!"
Wei Yan suddenly woke up and laughed and said: "They are in-laws. I expect that Guan Ping must have integrated their martial arts skills and surpassed his master."
All the generals secretly nodded. Guan Ping's martial arts was actually not low, and he was even good enough to compete with Wei Yan. However, he was always with Guan Yu, and his sharp edge was obscured. If he could lead the army alone, he would be a great general.
While everyone was discussing here, Xiahou Ba also came to his senses and hurriedly rode back to the formation. He asked his men to set up a formation to meet King Gongsun and sent an order to withdraw his troops.
When Zhuge Liang saw that the Wei army had withdrawn its troops, he was also worried that Huang Zhong was too weak to fight the barbarians and lose both sides, so he also withdrew his troops and returned to the camp.
Xia Houlan has sent people to find out the origin of King Gongsun. This man is a shepherd slave from Dingling in Mobei. He has no caste. He was kidnapped by Xianbei and brought to Liaodong. He took the surname Gongsun. Later he grew up and established his own family because of his extraordinary strength. He vowed to become the leader of the tribe and be named king.
"From a slave to the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, King Gongsun can be regarded as a hero." Wei Yan also experienced wars since he was a child and was born in the army, so he was quite touched by this.
Huang Zhongyan said: "After all, King Gongsun is a different species, and now he is helping Zhou to do evil. If this person is not eliminated early, he will cause endless harm. I think only Xiliang Ma Chao can win. Why not invite him overnight to help fight?"
Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly, but suddenly asked: "Do you still remember the world map drawn by my lord?"
Huang Zhong raised his white eyebrows slightly and said with emotion: "This picture is said to be from the Guishang caravan. I didn't expect that there is such a vast world outside the Kyushu. It's a pity that I am old. It is enough to assist the eldest son in reviving the Han Dynasty in this life. The world is like you." For young people.”
Wei Yan laughed and said, "Yesterday Han Sheng refused to accept his old age, but today he started to sigh."
"It is a man's ambition to prosper the Han Dynasty!" Zhuge Liang looked into the distance and said slowly: "But to open up the wasteland and spread civilization, transform the barbarians and educate the people, spread the style of China, and promote the power of the Han Dynasty, this is the merit of a saint."
From the moment he saw the world map, Zhuge Liang realized that Liu Qi was unfathomable. The letter left to him was not arrogant, but prepared. This kind of wise master may only be comparable to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and the only thing left in his heart is The arrogance is gone, and the heart is full of sincerity and full assistance.
If such a big thing can really be accomplished, Liu Qi will definitely become an emperor through the ages, and the civil and military ministers who follow him will be as great as the sages.
Wei Yan looked stern and asked in confusion: "Why did the military advisor suddenly mention this matter?"
Zhuge Liang said: "My lord has the ambition to travel all over the world, and we are fortunate to follow him and follow the path of a saint. However, the world is so big that there are many wonders. We should collect strange people and strangers from foreign lands, find out the news, and prepare for rainy days."
Huang Zhong suddenly understood: "Does the military advisor want to capture this person?"
Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "Yes, since the early Han Dynasty, the Huns have been rampant in Mobei. They have been a problem for hundreds of years. Now Xianbei is flourishing. What we know is nothing more than Hu people. Tribes such as Dingling and Wusun only exist in the slips. Little is known about it. If we can get a glimpse of it from King Gongsun, the Han Dynasty will rise again in the future, and the army will march north to expand the territory. This achievement is incomparable to Cao Mengde!"
Huang Zhong stroked his beard and said, "What the military advisor said is absolutely true. In order to cover up his evil deeds, Cao Cao and his thieves marched north to conquer Xianbei, so they compared themselves with Yizhou and their achievements were greater than those of Wei Huo. If the eldest son wants to cover up his sharpness, he should go one step further."
Wei Yan smiled and said: "No matter what King Gongsun is like, I have taken a fancy to those Xianbei cavalry. The Mobei war horses have more endurance than the Xiliang war horses. Can the military advisor make a plan to get those horses?"
"What's so difficult about this?" Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly and ordered: "Tomorrow Han Sheng will go to war, and I will deceive King Gongsun to go to Tushan in the south. I have my own arrangements."
The generals were ordered to rest and prepare. In the evening, two generals, Zhang Yi and Hu Ji, patrolled the camp to prevent Wei soldiers from sneak attacks.
…
Xiahou Ba also presented King Gongsun with a jar of wine to calm his shock. If this person hadn't come to his aid today, not only would he have been captured, but the Guandu camp might not have been saved either.
Seeing King Gongsun eating and drinking, Xiahou Ba was worried and sighed: "Why does Liu Qi have so many powerful generals under his command?"
Although Guan Yu retreated, Huang Zhong was still strong, and with Wei Yan and other generals, the strength of the Jingzhou army should not be underestimated.
"Don't worry, little general, I will definitely capture that old guy tomorrow." After a jar of wine, the fear in King Gongsun's heart had long since dissipated, and he felt that he could fight again.
Seeing Xiahou Ba's worried expression, he remembered that he was shot by Huang Zhong with an arrow, and suddenly became angry.
"Your Majesty, eat the food first!" Xiahouba warned in advance because he was afraid that King Gongsun would get drunk again: "Your Majesty is injured, so you can't show off. What's more, there is Zhuge Liang scheming. We will face the enemy tomorrow, so we must be careful."
King Gongsun said angrily: "If I don't avenge this arrow, my surname will no longer be Gongsun."
Early the next morning, drums were beating loudly outside the camp, and Huang Zhong came to challenge him again. King Gongsun went into battle and fought.
This time, King Gongsun had a better memory and stopped attacking fiercely. He wanted to exhaust Huang Zhong's strength before killing him. Although the opponent's moves were subtle, he was able to defeat him with brute force.
The two fought for fifty or sixty times, and for nearly an hour, the war horse was soaked with sweat. It turned out that Huang Zhong was not strong enough, and his sword skills were far less flexible than before. Several sneak attacks failed, and he was defeated by the horse.
"Hahaha, old man, you are dead!" King Gongsun was overjoyed and urged his horse to pursue him.
Ding ding ding——
At this moment, suddenly there was a rapid sound of gold ringing behind him, and King Gongsun had no choice but to circle his horse and retreat, saying dissatisfied: "I am about to take advantage of the victory to pursue you, what do you mean by this, young general?"
Xiahou Ba stared at Huang Zhong who was walking south: "This must be Huang Zhong's plan to lure the enemy. Your Majesty, be careful of deception."
King Gongsun said angrily: "I have killed you to the point where I have no strength left, so you are too cowardly."
Xiahou Ba said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, please don't forget how you were captured by the Prime Minister."
King Gongsun was startled when he heard this, remembering that he was lured into a valley by Cao Cao and captured, he snorted and rode back to the camp.
Xiahou Ba collected his troops and ordered people to carefully guard the camp. He returned to the camp to comfort King Gongsun and said: "General Zhang has returned to Xuchang and led his troops to Kunyang to cut off the enemy's rear. We are only here to contain Zhuge Liang. When General Zhang breaks the city, Jingzhou's army is short of food and grass, and will be in chaos without fighting, so it can launch a full-scale counterattack."
King Gongsun sneered coldly, "If you lose Luoyang, what's the use of cutting off Jingzhou's retreat?"
"You..." Xiahou Ba was furious, but unable to refute. He took a deep breath and gritted his teeth and said, "One day, I will step into Luoyang and rescue my father."
