Zhang Fei broke his spear and killed Huang Bing. The remaining Jiangdong cavalry dared to fight. They once again fled north without their lives, but the general Wu Qi escaped even faster.
"The general is mighty, should we still pursue him?" After the personal guard Wu Er complimented him, he clasped his fists and asked.
"It's already dark. Ziyu told me not to pursue him too deeply. It wouldn't be a good idea to be ambushed. Alas..." Zhang Fei suddenly sighed.
Wu Er asked curiously: "The man you killed with your broken spear just now seems to be a general in his attire. Why is that so?"
"It's a pity that I didn't bring my zhangba snake spear. Two spears were broken off along the way. It's really unlucky..." Zhang Fei once broke off a spear when he was passing by Zhenyang to fight against bandits. Later, he broke off a spear. He asked Pound for a spear, but the fate of the two weapons was exactly the same.
Wu Er nodded and smiled: "I think Mr. Lan Yuan's Vermillion Bird Black Moon Halberd is very good. We should borrow it when we leave Guangzhou."
"How can the exclusive weapon Gao Boping built for him be loaned out? Remember to remind me to bring the snake spear next time I go far away." Zhang Fei warned.
"only."
In fact, it's not that Lan Yuan doesn't want to borrow the halberd, it's that this kind of weapon requires high strength and skills, and the essence cannot be used without long-term practice. Zhang Fei has used it several times and feels that he is not good at it.
The encounter lasted from dusk to dark, and all the five thousand mountain soldiers died or surrendered. Only the general Wu Qi escaped with more than a hundred remaining cavalry.
Dongting Lake, Baling Camp.
Wu Qi knelt in the tent and trembled. The scholar-like man actually wanted to kill him to establish his power. Fortunately, Cheng Zi and Xie Jing were there to advise him, otherwise it would be difficult to quell Lu Xun's thunderous wrath.
Lu Xun had been in Poyang for several years, and it was not easy to pull out such a team. Unfortunately, he was defeated by Wu Qi by five thousand as soon as he came out. So he ignored the relationship between Wu Qi and Sun Quan and wanted to deal with it with military law in front of everyone.
"The trapped troops came so quickly. Didn't Prefect Lu's containment work?" Lu Xun fell into deep thought.
Cheng Zi remembered that Huang Bing had not returned, so he leaned down and asked, "Where is General Huang?"
Wu Qi swallowed his saliva, "We originally had more than 400 cavalry to escape from the siege. General Huang saw that the pursuers only had a few dozen cavalry. He insisted on going back to fight, but was stabbed to death by a black-faced general on the other side..."
"How is that possible? Do you know the name of that black guy?" Cheng Zi was very shocked.
"The battle is urgent, and it is not enough to get the name." Wu Qizhi shook his head.
Lu Xun motioned Wu Qi to stand up, then took over the topic and asked, "Is that man with a dark face and a curly beard, and a very tall and strong body?"
"How does the general know?" Wu Qi was surprised.
Lu Xun nodded lightly, and then introduced to everyone: "That person should be Shamoke, who was originally the leader of the Wuxi Barbarians. Now he is serving as General Zhonglang under Lantian. The Governor of Ziming and General Ziheng have suffered from him. This black guy is over fifty and his courage has not diminished."
"I once heard that my lord said that after the Wuxi barbarians surrendered to Lantian, they were driven to build the city of Guangzhou. Shamoke should have sold his people..." Wu Qi remembered Sun Quan's words and continued to add.
"General Huang is the queen of the generals, and his bravery is comparable to that of the old generals. Will he be defeated by a barbarian king who is over fifty years old?" Xie Jing looked puzzled.
"Well... maybe because it was dark at the time, General Huang was accidentally stabbed in the melee. That's definitely the case..." Wu Qi found an excuse for Huang Bing.
Cheng Zi nodded in agreement, then shook his head and sighed: "That's reasonable. It's a pity that General Huang was attacked and killed by this barbarian before he had accomplished any great achievements..."
"Hmph, when we meet one day, I will definitely kill Samoko." Xie Jing snorted coldly.
Xie Jing was the most powerful general in Lu Xun's army. He said this with great confidence. When Cheng Zi saw this, he immediately pushed him on his horse and said, "Lantian's troops will definitely come to Dongting. Since General Xie is a famous general in Jiangdong, why not invite Sha Sha in front of the battle?" Moko can also avenge General Huang."
"Uh...it depends on General Lu's arrangements." After Xie Jing finished speaking, he looked at Lu Xun.
Lu Xun looked serious, "Lantian is known as Xuan Owl. He is ruthless and good at using soldiers. In addition to the barbarian king Shamoko, he also has Gao Shun, the commander of the trapped army, and Pang De, the fierce general of Xiliang. We must not act rashly in the future battle."
"General, who is the most powerful among these three?" Xie Jing asked.
"In terms of personal bravery, Pang De is naturally the most powerful. This person turned out to be Ma Chao's general. Even Cao Cao was afraid of three points. Gao Shun rarely fought with others in front of the formation. Samoko should be three points. The weakest among people, but they can't be careless." Lu Xun pinched his chin and analyzed.
Cheng Zi and Xie Jing both nodded to express their understanding, which meant that if Pound went to fight, he would avoid it, and he could still fight Samoko when he showed up.
Shortly after Wu Qi's remaining soldiers fled back to the Baling camp, Lantian followed the instructions of the surrendered troops and followed the map. He arrived and conquered Baling County one day later.
Baling County has a low city wall and is a small town in the north of Changsha County. Lu Xun never thought of occupying the county seat, but instead established a village near Dongting Lake.
The trapping army was now well-known, and Lu Xun did not dare to defend the isolated city. If he was too far away from Dongting's navy, he would be easily defeated by Lantian one by one.
The location of Lu Xun's camp was very particular. It was located at the junction of Dongting, Xiang River, and Yangtze River. This way, it could rely on the advantages of the Jiangdong navy and completely guarantee the normal flow of the Yangtze River food route. If the Shanyue troops were defeated by the trapped troops, they could all be withdrawn on board the ships. .
As long as the water mouth of Dongting is guarded, Jiaozhou's soldiers and horses will not be able to go north of the Yangtze River.
At this time, Li Yi's warship was parked at the southern entrance of Dongting and was on standby. Lantian knew that they were no match for the Jiangdong Navy, so he did not dare to let Li Yi risk entering Dongting.
The trapped troops stopped in front of the Hanzhai in Jiangdong. They saw horses and deer antlers outside the camp and several archery towers inside the camp. They looked like they were going to fight a protracted war.
Lan Tian stroked his beard and said: "Since Lu Xun can't shrink out, we have to reveal our identity and let these Jiangdong rats have a good look. Ling Ming, please come forward and ask Lu Boyan to come out of the camp to answer."
"Wei." Pang De accepted the order with his fists clasped.
Lu Xun's camp was lined up inside and outside. Pang De walked a few feet away alone and shouted loudly to the front: "Lu Xun, my General Lan asks you to come out of the camp to speak."
Pang De shouted twice in succession. Although the camp opposite was noisy, there was no other response, so he prepared to shout again, but turned around and left without a response.
"Who are you? The one who is yelling here is the name of my governor, and you are the one who can call me?"
Xie Jing, with his armor shining all over his body and a spear in his hand, was standing in front of the camp on horseback, looking at Pang De with disdain.
Pang De frowned and snorted: "What? Do you want to test the speed of my sword? Have you ever heard of Pang De in Xiliang?"
"General Pang, please retreat. My governor will come out immediately." When Xie Jing heard Pang De's name, his original arrogance suddenly extinguished.
Pang De stepped back a few feet in confusion, and saw Gao Shun and Lan Tian riding back on horseback, while Lu Xun also rode out of the camp despite being called upon.
Lan Tian and Lu Xun were similar in age. The two looked at each other for a long time before Lu Xun raised his hands and saluted and said, "Mr.
Lantian didn't take the other's compliments seriously, and replied coldly: "The noble governor is so forgetful. You don't know whose jurisdiction is Changsha? What does Chen Bing want to do by setting up a camp here?"
"Well... a few days ago, several Jiangdong warships mistakenly entered the Xiangshui River. I was worried that General Guan would know the misunderstanding and did not dare to continue entering the Xiangshui River to search, so I stayed here and waited..." Lu Xun had a temporary thought. reason.
Lan Tian laughed: "The Governor's reasons are really special. Does your own letter matter the most?"
