The Chu State's army could not avoid Jingguo's spy, so they simply did not avoid it. They showed it directly and openly so that Jingguo's spy could see it clearly. They only hid Zhao Yun's troops and went south quietly. Jiaozhou, take a long way to Lingling County, and then make a surprise attack on Cangwu.
Liu Bei personally led an army of 70,000, with Huang Zhong, Xu Sheng and others as generals, and Chen Deng as military advisor. He raised troops to attack Jiangxia, preparing to go up the river to seize the land of Jingzhou. He ordered Wenpin and Zang Ba to command 30,000 naval troops. The prince supervised the country and appointed Chen Gong as military advisor and assistant minister to prevent the Jing army in Jiangbei from attacking Yangzhou and other places. Liu Bei's army set off in a mighty manner, perfectly hiding Zhao Yun's 18,000 men.
It has to be said that Chen Gong's strategy is very clever.
Even if the Chu State did not leave, Zhang Xiu knew that Liu Bei was preparing to attack Jingzhou. Now that Liu Bei left, Zhang Xiu immediately responded. Lu Xun quickly made preparations and made careful arrangements along the river, but nothing happened. Unexpectedly, Zhao Yun had arrived at Lingling County.
It's a pity that Liu Bei, Chen Gong and his ministers had all their calculations, but they didn't realize that Liu Feng had surrendered.
When Zhao Yun led his troops to Lingling County, Liu Feng did not report the news to Jingguo immediately. Deep down in his heart, he was still loyal to Liu Bei and did not want to surrender. Zhao Yun's arrival gave him some hope. Maybe Zhao Yun Zhao Yun came with his father's decree, asking him to join the army and attack Jingguo.
As long as Liu Bei no longer doubts himself and gives himself the military power to go into battle and kill the enemy, then he would rather die on the battlefield to show his loyalty than be under house arrest here, under surveillance and without freedom.
Knowing that Zhao Yun's army fought all night, Liu Feng stood at the city gate and waited until midnight.
When Zhao Yun, who was wearing white armor and a white horse and carrying a gentian and bright silver gun, appeared in the dark night, Liu Feng's hopes reached a climax. Excited, he hurriedly ordered people to open the city gate, rushed down the tower in three steps and met him at the door. The arrival of Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun, who was coming on horseback, saw from a distance that it was Liu Feng, the king of Lingling, who was greeting him at the city gate. He hurriedly rolled off his saddle and dismounted, knelt down and said, "General Zhao Yun, please bow to King Lingling!"
Liu Feng quickly walked over and helped Zhao Yun up: "General Zhao, it's really hard to come all the way. Please go to the city and rest quickly."
However, Zhao Yun did not enter the city and said to Liu Feng: "Your Majesty, the general is here alone. He has military orders and does not dare to show off. I heard that Jingguo's spies are all over the world, how can the general dare to enter the city? Please prepare for three months, my lord." I’ll send someone to get the food and fodder at midnight three days from now, thank you for your trouble, Your Majesty.”
When Liu Feng saw that Zhao Yun didn't even enter the city, he was a little frustrated, but he still asked without giving up: "Don't worry, general, I will prepare the food and grass in three days. ...The emperor...didn't you give me a decree?"
Zhao Yun felt sad when he saw Liu Feng's eyes full of longing.
He didn't dare to enter the city, partly because he was afraid of being discovered by Jingguo's spies, and partly because of Liu Feng's identity. If he got too close, he might be implicated. But seeing that Liu Feng was really pitiful, he couldn't bear it and sighed. : "My lord, you are not what you used to be. The war is fierce and dangerous. How can you be in danger? The last general..."
"No, right?"
Liu Feng's voice was cold, like the ice of the twelfth lunar month in winter.
Zhao Yun lowered his head and said nothing.
"Ah!"
Liu Feng laughed coldly, not sure whether he was laughing at himself, Liu Bei, or Chu.
After smiling, he turned around and walked towards the city, no longer caring about Zhao Yun who was at a loss behind him. He was faltering and full of frustration, like a walking corpse that had lost its soul. He was already extremely disappointed and disappointed. To the extreme, Liu Bei didn't even give him a chance to die on the battlefield.
"boom!"
The heavy and huge wooden door closed with a loud bang, as if it cut off all contact with Chu State. The moment the door closed, Liu Feng stumbled to the ground, his eyes vacant and lifeless.
After watching Liu Feng's disappointed back disappear from his eyes, Zhao Yun sighed helplessly, turned around, mounted his horse, and returned the same way.
Liu Feng's heart felt as heavy as a mountain pressing on his chest. Even his breathing became tight. His face turned red and he was breathing desperately. Tears of loss flowed from his eyes, but he couldn't cry.
"It seems that Liu Bei hasn't heard about you before my emperor!" Chen Er appeared in front of Liu Feng.
Liu Feng was not surprised why Chen Er was here, and said directly: "Now it's time to use me! Since Emperor Jing knows me so well, he will give me the property I want. I don't want to be here any longer." treat!"
Chen Er said: "No, you won't get the property."
Liu Feng raised his eyelids and stared at Chen Er: "What do you mean by this?"
Chen Er laughed: "What's the purpose of Liu Bei being so guarded against you? Isn't it because he is afraid that you will steal the throne from Liu Chan? He is so ruthless and unjust, why not follow Liu Bei's wishes and steal Liu Chan's throne, and let Liu Bei know, he sees I lost my sight and saw the wrong person!"
Liu Feng's eyes flashed with a fierce glare and he stared at Chen Er: "Is Emperor Jing willing to support me?"
Chen Er asked back: "Are you willing to sincerely submit to our emperor?"
"Liu Bei is unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!" Liu Feng's desire for revenge was completely aroused, and his eyes became even fiercer. "As long as you give me one army, I can enter the Chu Kingdom and kill Liu Chan!"
Seeing that Liu Feng was determined, he took out an imperial edict from his arms: "Liu Feng listens to the edict!"
Liu Feng was determined to kill Liu Chan and knelt down to listen to the order without hesitation.
"Liu Feng knew the current situation, abandoned the dark and turned to the light. Now he can be named Linglinghou, a second-class general, and he can lead 3,000 Jingqian troops into the hinterland of the Chu Kingdom and kill the Chu Kingdom Crown Prince Liu Chan. I appreciate this!" Chen Er said with a solemn expression! Read out the imperial edict.
Liu Feng was surprised.
As long as the emperor is the emperor, there are also high and low levels of marquis, namely rural marquis, county marquis and county marquis. Even if Chen Er now takes a lot of credit, he is only a county marquis. Zhang Xiu directly named him a county marquis. This shows that Zhang Xiu has great influence on the county marquis. Liu Feng's trust and high hopes.
Chen Er said with some envy: "Congratulations to the Marquis of Lingling. I have struggled for many years to become a county Marquis. However, you have also stepped down from Lingling Prince to Lingling Marquis. I feel a lot more balanced."
Liu Feng smiled coquettishly: "Brother Chen made fun of me, uh... I wonder where Jing Qian's army is now?"
Chen Er smiled and said: "Just outside the city, monitoring Zhao Yun's soldiers and horses."
Liu Feng's eyes widened: "How did you know that Zhao Yun's soldiers and horses would appear here?"
Seeing Liu Feng looking at him as if he had seen a ghost, he smiled bitterly and said: "To be honest, we just discovered Zhao Yun. The emperor doesn't know about it yet, so the order given to you did not include destroying Zhao Yun's army first. But then again, this Liu Bei is quite capable, and he secretly sent a team of troops to appear here, do you know their purpose?"
Liu Feng said without thinking: "Cangwu! They want to attack Cangwu first, and then go north to join Liu Bei and capture Jingzhou."
