The next day.

Dusk.

Liu Bei personally sent Zhang Yun outside the camp gate.

"Zhang Zhongnuo, you must try your best to persuade Huang Zu to surrender to Kaicheng to avoid an unnecessary fight."

"You tell him that I, Liu Bei, swear by the Yangtze River. If he is willing to surrender, I will make him continue to guard Jiangxia."

Before leaving, Liu Bei solemnly told Zhang Yun.

Deng Mu knew that Lao Liu's words came from the bottom of his heart.

He was polite to the virtuous corporal, and he still admired Huang Zu's generals and wanted to take him as his own. If

Huang Zu is really willing to surrender, it would be the best to avoid having to fight with swords.

Zhang Yun looked generous and said seriously:

"Lord, don't worry, the general will definitely explain to him the Lord's sincerity in seeking talents and persuade him to open the city and surrender!"

After solemnly promising, Zhang Yunfang bid farewell to Liu Bei and galloped away to Xiakou City.

Liu Ying gradually disappeared behind him, until Liu Bei's figure could no longer be seen clearly.

Zhang Yunfang breathed a sigh of relief, and there was actually someone there. It's a blessing to see a flying bird out of its cage and escape to heaven.

When looking back in the direction of Liu Ying, Zhang Yun's lips curled up with a hint of ferocious sarcasm.

"Liu Bei, you are so self-righteous!"

"I, a prince of the Zhang family, have been a prince for generations. With my family status, do you think I would really demote you to a mat weaver and shoe seller?"

"Do you still want to use me to persuade Huang Zu to surrender?"

"I will use Huang Zu to kill you and take back Jingzhou!"

"Since his uncle is gone, Liu Cong has taken refuge with Sun Ce. Only I, Zhang Yun, am worthy of inheriting this Jingzhou legacy!"

"Hahaha——"

Zhang Yun had a wishful thinking in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more proud he became, and he laughed all the way away.

Xiakou South Gate.

On the tower.

Huang Zu stood holding his sword, his brows furrowed, staring at Liu Jun's camp by the river from a distance.

"That boy Sun Ce just left, and the big-eared thief came again"

"You bunch of rats, do you really think that I, Huang Zulang, have earned my reputation and no one dares to bully me?"

Huang Zu slapped the battlements hard, gritting his teeth, and a look of anger in his eyes.

Su Fei, the general behind him, hesitated several times, but said cautiously:

"General Huang, I have something to say in the end, I don’t know whether to say it or not."

Huang Zu waved his hand slightly, indicating that he would speak if he had anything to say.

"Duke Jing Sheng is dead, and the change of ownership of Jingzhou is a foregone conclusion."

"General, you once shot Sun Jian, and you have a grudge against Sun Ce for killing his father. Naturally, you cannot join Sun Ce. You can only fight to the death to resist him."

"But General, you and Liu Xuande have no grudges or enmities, and have nothing to do with each other."

"Now Liu Xuande has captured Jiangling, and Jingnan has decided to send a message. Six of the seven counties in Jingzhou have been conquered. It is certain that Jingzhou will belong to him."

"What's more, this Liu Xuande is still the Jingzhou shepherd who has been granted the title of"Jingzhou Shepherd" by the emperor."

"Under this situation, how can General Huang compete with Jiangxia County and the isolated city of Xiakou?"

"In this case, why didn't the general adapt to the situation and surrender Liu Xuande with Jiangxia County?"

Su Fei analyzed the pros and cons and made his intention clear. He advised Huang Zu to surrender to Liu Bei!

His advice was well-founded, and the lieutenants on the left and right all nodded secretly.

"Damn it! Huang

Zu turned around angrily, glared at Su Fei, and scolded:

"I, Huang Zu, am the head of the Huang family and the most famous general in Jingzhou. What an identity I have!"

"Grandpa Jingsheng came from a well-known family. He was a clan member of the Han Dynasty and a famous figure in the country. I, Huang Zu, reluctantly accepted him as my master."

"Then Liu Bei is just a mat weaver and shoe seller who stole Jingzhou with deceit. How worthy is he that I, Huang Zu, will surrender to him?"

"Su Fei, do you want me to make everyone in the world laugh at me?"

Su Fei was scolded with a black nose and face. He was so frightened that he was sweating profusely. He squeaked and didn't dare to say anything.

Huang Zu snorted coldly, and the anger on his face turned into pride, and he looked towards the north.

"This general heard about Cao Cao and is now leading his army to attack Wancheng."

"The big-eared thief can't last more than a few days and will definitely return to Nanyang to resist Cao Cao."

"When the time comes, I will defeat Sun Ce first and then retreat from Liu Bei's power, and take advantage of the situation to counterattack. Why worry about not being able to regain Jingzhou!"

"Grandpa Jingsheng is no longer here. Only I, Huang Zu, can be the lord of Jingzhou!"

Huang Zu was domineering and arrogant, and told his ambitions to the generals.

Su Fei took a breath and looked at Huang Zu in surprise, obviously not expecting him to have such ambitions.

Liu Bei fought from Wancheng to Jiangling. They were invincible and invincible along the way.

Sun Ce swept across Jiangdong and was unbeatable.

You Huang Zu didn't even think about it. How many kilograms do you have, how dare you dare those two ruthless men to fight for Jingzhou?

"General Huang——"

Su Fei couldn't bear it and wanted to persuade Shi again.

A flying horse came and arrived at the south gate of the city.

The visitor shouted:"General Huang Chengzong, it's me, let me into the city quickly!"

Huang Zu looked down at the city and suddenly recognized the man.

Zhang Yun?

The general who came was actually Liu Biao's nephew Zhang Yun

"Wasn't that guy captured alive by Liu Bei in the Battle of Hanshui River? How could he appear here?"

Huang Zu looked surprised and puzzled.

He suppressed his suspicion and ordered the city gate to be opened and let Zhang Yun into the city.

After a while, the two of them were kneeling opposite each other and sitting in the tower.

"Zhongnuo, I didn’t expect you to be still alive?"

"Weren't you captured alive for Liu Bei? What are you doing?……"

Huang Zu poured a glass of wine for Zhang Yun and looked at his old friend suspiciously.

Zhang Yun sighed, looking a little helpless and bitter.

"To be honest, General Huang, I was indeed captured alive by that big-eared thief during the Battle of Hanshui River."

"He imprisoned me and used all kinds of coercion and inducement to force me to surrender, but I still refused to surrender to him!"

After some generosity, Zhang Yun changed the subject:

"But I didn’t expect that today after the Big-Ear bandits came to Xiakou, they wanted to persuade me to surrender. They also wanted to use me to enter the city to persuade General Huang to surrender."

"I had an idea and simply surrendered to the big-eared thief. I pretended to agree and deceived the big-eared thief."

"Therefore, I was able to take the opportunity to escape from the trap and escape from the control of the big-eared thief, and came to meet you, General Huang."

After hearing this explanation, Huang Zufang suddenly realized.

Then, his face ignited with sarcasm and disdain, and he snorted coldly:

"Liu Bei, a mat weaver and shoe seller, is really arrogant and wants to surrender to me!"

"This big-eared thief really underestimated my integrity, Huang Zu!"

Hearing this, there was no chance of surrendering.

Zhang Yun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, took advantage of the opportunity to compliment Huang Zu, and flattered Huang Zu hard.

Then he lowered his voice and said with a smile:

"General Huang, Yun came here not only to take advantage of the opportunity to get out of trouble, but also gave General Huang a good opportunity to defeat the big-eared thief."

"I wonder if General Huang has the courage to grasp it? Huang

Zu's eyes lit up and he hurriedly came closer.

Zhang Yun had a sly look on his face and unhurriedly explained his plan.

"When Yun was in the enemy camp, he overheard a conversation between the big-eared thief and his subordinates, saying that Na Wenpin had just arrived with 300,000 grains escorted by him and was setting up a grain camp on the east bank of the Han River."

"Wenpin had only more than 3,000 soldiers and horses."

"The big-eared bandits advanced too quickly, and the number of soldiers they brought to Xiakou did not exceed 7,000. They were unable to add more troops to Wenpin for the time being."

"This is our chance, General Huang"

"If we lead our army out of the city tonight and raid the Big Ear Thief's grain camp, we will definitely succeed in one battle and burn all the Big Ear Thief's grain and grass with a fire."

"Once the food and grass are burned, the big-eared bandits will definitely be in chaos. If General Huang takes advantage of the situation to attack his main camp, why worry about not defeating him?"

Huang Zu's eyes brightened, and he suddenly clenched his fists, with excitement igniting in his eyes.

If he could defeat Liu Bei in one fell swoop, he could seize the opportunity to pursue the victory, advance westward, and recapture Jiangling in one fell swoop.

By then, the Yangtze River would be cut off, and Jingnan would be The county's official message can be determined!

Even if I can't control all of Jingzhou, I can still separate the counties south of the Yangtze River and become the master of half of Jingzhou! (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Zhongnuo, is your strategy really reliable?"

Although Huang Zu was excited, he still maintained some caution.

Zhang Yun patted his chest and promised:

"General Huang can rest assured that what Yun heard is true, but not half a word is missing."

"Before leaving, Yun paid special attention to check the actual situation of the enemy camp, and it was indeed correct."

After that,

Zhang Yun stood up, cupped his hands to Huang Zu, and said seriously:

"General Huang, this is a God-given opportunity for us to defeat the big-eared bandits, recapture Jingzhou, and avenge my uncle!"

"Please show General Huang the same courage as he did when he shot Sun Jian, give it a try, and achieve unparalleled achievements again!"

This incitement instantly ignited Huang Zu's ambition.

"good!"

So he stood up and said boldly:

"According to your plan, I will mobilize all my troops tonight to attack the enemy's food camp at night!"

"The big-eared thief wants me to surrender to him, so I will reply to him with a big victory!"

It's late at night.

On the east bank of the Han River, west of Xiakou City, is Liu Jun's Grain Camp.

On the boat, Liu Bei and Deng Mu were having a drink and discussing the world.

The two of them were talking about how to fight Sun Ce.

It seemed that Xiakou, which was so close to them, was already in their pocket, and they did not take Huang Zu into their eyes at all.[]

"Master, what ingenious plan did he give to the lord?"

"From what they were talking about, it seems that Xiakou is within easy reach..."

Zhuge Liang frowned deeply, secretly guessing in his mind.

Just when he was confused, the scout rushed onto the boat and half-knelt on the ground.

"Lord, the Jiangxia army has left the city in large numbers and is rushing towards our grain camp!"

Liu Bei perked up and looked at Deng Mu happily:

"Ziyu, your plan of luring the snake out of the cave was successful, and Huang Zu was indeed trapped in the urn!"

Deng Mu only smiled faintly, stood up and said:

"Huang Zu, the ten-thousand-year-old bastard, has entered the pot. My lord, it's time for us to start the fire."

Liu Bei smiled boldly, and immediately got up and left the warehouse.

The two came to the bow of the ship and looked towards the outside of the camp from a distance.

Zhuge Liang, who followed him out, was full of surprise and couldn't help but ask:

"Lord, Master, what is the plan to lure the snake out of its hole?"

"How dare Huang Zu take the initiative to leave the city and attack our grain camp at night?"

Deng Mu laughed and said nothing.

Liu Bei then presented Deng Mu with a plan, how to use Zhang Yun to persuade Huang Zu to surrender, so that Huang Zu thought his grain camp was empty, so he sent troops to attack at night...

This entire plan was explained to Zhuge Liang.

He suddenly realized it. Zhuge Liang couldn't help but look at Deng Mu with wonder and admiration.

"The master is really full of tricks. He actually thought of using Zhang Yun to lure Huang Zu to take the initiative."

"Then I must have set up an ambush in our grain camp, just waiting for Huang Zu to enter the net?"

"In this way, Huang Zu can be defeated in one fell swoop, and Xiakou can be defeated quickly in less than ten days?"

Zhuge Liang was so smart that he immediately figured out the next plan.

Deng Mu nodded slightly in acquiescence, but showed the demeanor of a teacher and taught:

"Kong Ming, you remember, the art of military use emphasizes the combination of oddness and rightness."

"Neither can we pursue stability and stick to regular soldiers, nor can we be afraid of risking everything in every battle and pin our hopes on winning by surprise."

"Use surprise troops when they should, use regular troops when they should, and adapt to changing circumstances, so that you can win a hundred battles."

Zhuge Liang understood something from these words and hurriedly took out the bamboo slips and wrote down Deng Mu's teachings.

"Ziyu, this great disciple of yours is naturally intelligent, sensitive and eager to learn."

"If you teach and cultivate me like this, given time, you will definitely become a talented person for the king."

Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang who had turned on the"student master" mode, his eyes full of anticipation and appreciation.

Deng Mu smiled, turned his eyes to the outside of the camp, raised his hand and pointed:

"Lord, Huang Zu is here."

Liu Bei raised his eyes and looked into the distance. Through the firelight of the camp, he could vaguely see countless figures rushing out of the darkness and rushing towards the camp. The loud killing sounds echoed throughout the east bank of the Han River.

Outside the camp.

Huang Zuzheng galloped on his horse, brandishing his sword, and yelled at his Jiangxia soldiers to charge wildly. Liu Jun was obviously unprepared and was caught off guard. The soldiers on duty dispersed in a rush.

Jiangxia's army effortlessly attacked Breaking through the camp gate and pouring into the grain camp

"Zhong Nuo, you are indeed right. The big-eared bandit's grain camp is poorly defended and does not have many soldiers at all!"

Huang Zu was so excited that he praised Zhang Yun next to him.

Zhang Yun's lips curled up with pride and he laughed:

"General Huang, I have said before that this is a God-given opportunity for you to defeat Liu Bei."

"What are we waiting for? We rush into the enemy camp in one go and burn all the big-eared thieves’ food and grass with a fire! Huang

Zu laughed loudly and immediately urged his horse to run wildly.

Nearly six thousand Jiangxia soldiers, like hungry tigers and wolves, rushed into the grain camp. They were unstoppable along the way, and there was no Liu Jun to stop them. They were killed easily. Entering the hinterland of Liangying,

Huang Zu slowed down his horse and felt something was wrong.

"Zhang Yun said that there are still three thousand soldiers and horses in the grain camp of Big Ear Thief."

"Even if they were caught off guard, there wouldn't be half an enemy force blocking them along the way?"

"Could it be..."

Huang Zu's heart was shocked, and he suddenly realized something.

He suddenly reined in his horse and shouted:"The whole army listens to the order and withdraws immediately.——"

Boom boom!

The sound of war drums suddenly sounded, interrupting Huang Zu's order.

In all directions, countless torches suddenly lit up, illuminating the entire east bank of the Han River as bright as day.

In the originally empty grain camp, countless Liu Jun infantry and cavalry suddenly appeared, like divine soldiers descending from the sky, and surrounded them from all sides.

"ambush!"

"The ambush of the big-eared thief is indeed a scam!"

Huang Zu's face changed with shock, and he exclaimed.

Zhang Yun was even more stunned. He looked at the drastic changes around him in disbelief. The riding whip in his hand was so frightened that he dropped it.

Directly in front.

Liu Jun opened like a wave.

A golden-armored general, Surrounded by all the personal guards, he slowly appeared

"Liu...Liu Bei?"

When Zhang Yun recognized the general, he immediately changed his face in astonishment.

"Huang Zu! Liu

Bei pointed his horse whip and said sternly:

"You have fallen into the trap of my son's military advisor and been led into the trap I have set for you by Zhang Yun."

"You have no way out. If you don't surrender now, how will you wait?"

Huang Zu's heart felt like a heavy blow, and he glared at Zhang Yun with shock and anger.

"General Huang, this, this, I……"

Zhang Yun was sweating profusely, trembling, and was so panicked that he could not speak coherently..
