After hearing this, Liu Bei became even more angry and said: "I heard that you were unwilling to attack Soochow with your troops and were preparing to attack Fancheng. Later, when you saw that our army was in dire straits, you turned to attack Xiangyang. What are your intentions in persuading me to withdraw our troops now?" ? Aren't you going to avenge the hatred of your second and third brothers? I have long seen that you are too selfish." After saying that, he waved his hand and asked his left and right to control Yu Yi, saying: "The King of Jingzhou is spreading rumors. , should have been punished, but now for the sake of taking Xiangyang, I have temporarily detained him until I take Soochow, and then deal with him." Everyone came forward to plead for mercy, but Liu Bei just refused, and was about to return to the camp when he suddenly saw The flag of the Chinese army was broken. He looked back and looked around, but there was no sign of wind, so he asked Cheng Ji, "What's going on?"

He replied: "Could it be that the Wu army came to rob the camp?"

The First Master said: "After being killed last night, how can you still dare to come here?"

He replied: "If Lu Xun is using it to test us, what should we do?"

Yu Yi was dragged away by the warriors on the left and right. Hearing the conversation between the two, he shouted: "Brother, listen to me. Lu Xun came to attack yesterday just to test the strength of his troops and to complete his plan. Now he is changing his strategy." It’s still too late, otherwise it will be too late to regret it!”

While he was talking, someone suddenly reported that he saw the Wu army heading east along the mountain from a distance. The First Lord smiled and said: "These are suspected soldiers from Soochow." Then he told everyone not to act rashly, and asked Guan Xing and Zhang Bao to lead their own troops. He went out on patrol with five hundred cavalry.

In fact, with Yu Yi's martial arts skills, there was no way to trap the few warriors, but Yu Yi was desperate and did not expect that at this juncture, his eldest brother Liu Bei still couldn't listen to the loyal advice, so he became desperate, his mind went blank, and he was dragged left and right. Went to jail.

At dusk, Guan Xing came back and said: "There is a fire in the Jiangbei camp!"

The First Master quickly asked Guan Xing to go to the north of the Yangtze River and Zhang Bao to the south of the Yangtze River to find out the truth and said: "If the Wu army arrives, come back and report immediately." The two of them followed the order.

At the time of the first watch, the southeast wind suddenly blew. I saw a fire breaking out in the left camp of the imperial camp. When I was about to go to the rescue, suddenly a fire broke out in the camp on the right. The wind became stronger and stronger, and the fire became bigger and bigger. , the trees were set on fire together, the shouts were loud, and the soldiers and horses from the two villages came out together and ran towards the middle camp. As a result, the soldiers were in chaos and killed each other. Countless people died. The soldiers and horses from Soochow came behind and lost again. I don’t know how many soldiers and horses there are.

At this moment, the First Master finally understood Yu Yi's advice and regretted it very much. He quickly sent people to release Yu Yi from the temporary prison. He quickly mounted his horse and walked towards Feng Xi's camp. Suddenly he saw a fire in his camp. Both the south and north of the Yangtze River were ignited by the fire. The fire illuminated the entire river as if it were daytime. Feng Xi led a dozen cavalrymen. After escaping, they happened to encounter Xu Sheng's troops of the Wu army. The two were fighting. When the First Lord saw it, he quickly turned his horse's head and walked to the west. Xu Sheng abandoned Feng Xi and chased him with his troops. The First Lord was panicked. Another group of people came out in front and blocked the way. The person who came was none other than Ding Feng, the general of Soochow. The two attacked. The First Lord was very panicked. He was surrounded by Wu troops on all sides. Suddenly there was a loud shout and a group of people were killed. When he came out, it was Zhang Bao who rescued the First Master and escaped with the imperial guards.

While walking, suddenly a group of men and horses came out. It was Fu Tong, the general of Shu. He gathered their troops together, and the Wu army pursued them from behind. The First Lord first arrived near a mountain called Ma'anshan. Zhang Bao and Fu Tong When the First Lord was invited to go up the mountain, the shouts from the bottom of the mountain started again. Lu Xun's troops came over and surrounded Ma'anshan. Zhang Bao and Fu Tong occupied the mountain pass. The First Lord saw the flames spreading from a distance, and the corpses fell in disorder on the mountain. On the ground, many corpses fell into the river and were washed away by the current.

It is said that after Yu Yi was imprisoned, he was depressed. In his heart, he just felt that Liu Bei was hopeless, and he was more determined to replace him. When it was getting dark, a soldier suddenly came and secretly opened the door. Yu Yi thought that Liu Bei had changed his mind and was ready to follow his advice, so he held the soldier's hand tightly and asked, "Has your Majesty figured it out?"

The soldier turned around and pointed not far away, and said: "Now the Wu army has been killed, and the camps in Jiangbei and Jiangnan have been burned, forming countless corpses. I have received an order, and Jingzhou must escape quickly!"

After hearing this, Yu Yi hurriedly walked outside and saw that the wind was blowing very fast and most of the woods were on fire. He felt regretful and quickly grabbed the soldier who was about to escape and asked, "Where is my elder brother?"

He replied: "I fled to Ma'anshan. It is said that I was surrounded by Lu Xun's large army. King Jingzhou had better flee for his life. My lord is hopeless!"

After hearing this, Yu Yi was furious. He kicked the soldier to the ground, snatched his weapon, and walked towards Ma'anshan.

It is said that Lu Xun learned that Yu Yi rushed to Liu Bei's side overnight. Although the plan was implemented, he was also afraid that Liu Bei would follow Yu Yi's suggestion and change his strategy. He felt uneasy. When the two camps in Jiangnan and Jiangbei were burned by flames, he no longer worried and led The soldiers pursued Liu Bei. When the soldiers brought out the news that Liu Bei did not listen to Yu Yi's suggestion and took him into prison, Lu Xun was even more happy and said: "God is helping me! Now, even gods may not be able to stop this fire!" He ordered Liu Bei to be pursued, and at the same time sent people to search the place where Yu Yi was imprisoned, preparing to kill two birds with one stone.

In Ma'anshan, Liu Bei and others were guarding the mountain for a night. Suddenly, the Wu army set fire on all sides and prepared to burn the mountain. Xing, Guan Xing knelt on the ground and said: "There are fires on all sides. We can't stay here any longer. Your Majesty, please rush to Baidi City quickly and then think about packing up the troops."

The First Master asked: "Which of you dares to come and cut off the queen?"

Fu Tong said: "I am willing to come and end the queen!"

When night came, Guan Xing was in the front and Zhang Bao was in the middle. Fu Tong was left behind to protect the First Lord and left, then went down the mountain to kill. When the Wu army saw the First Lord coming, they all wanted to perform meritorious deeds, and each led their own armies to pursue him. , overwhelming, chasing westward, the First Lord ordered the sergeants to take off their robes, block the road, and then set it on fire.

While he was running, suddenly the Wu army general Zhu Ran led a group of troops to fight out from the river bank and blocked the road. The First Lord shouted: "I am going to die here!"

Guan Xing and Zhang Bao came to the rescue on horseback, but were shot back by random arrows. Each was seriously injured and could not get closer. The shouts from behind came again, and Lu Xun personally led the army to fight out of the valley.

When the First Lord was in a panic, he saw the sky was dim, the shouts in front were loud, and Zhu Ran's army was blocked. A group of people came out to rescue him. When he saw the flag, the First Lord was very happy. The person coming was exactly Changshan Zhao Zilong. At that time, Zhao Yun was in Jiangzhou in Sichuan. He heard that the Wu army and the Shu army were fighting, so he came out with his troops. Suddenly he saw flames rising to the sky in the southeast area. Zhao Yun was very surprised. He looked from a distance and didn't want the First Lord to be trapped. Zhao Yun then Fight your way out bravely.
