Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Lu Bu stood at the top of the city, looking at Yuan Shang's retreating figure, and smiled coldly. He knew that the direction Yuan Shang was heading to was Yizhou. It seemed that he did not believe that his brother Yuan Tan, who had 50,000 troops, was like this.  They were going to Yizhou to rescue Liu Zhang and Liu Bei. Unfortunately, Lu Bu had already made preparations at the junction of Jingzhou and Yizhou. Zhang Ren, who once shot Pang Tong dead at Luofengpo, would definitely fulfill his mission this time.

    Lu Bu looked back at Yuan Xi who was slumped on the ground. The second oldest son of the Yuan Shao family originally had 50,000 troops to guard Jiangling, but his ability was just like that in his previous life. He was not even as good as his eldest brother Yuan Tan and his third brother Yuan Shang. How could he compete with Lu Bu?  .

    After Yan Liang was surrendered by Lu Bu on the front line of Xiangyang, he quickly implemented Lu Bu's plan, pretended to be defeated by Lu Bu, and retreated to Jiangling in embarrassment. He led more than 5,000 remaining soldiers to rescue Yuan Xi at the foot of Jiangling City, opened the city and let them in.

    Kuai Yue, the leader of a local Jingzhou family who originally defended the city with Yuan Xi, saw at a glance that Yan Liang was deceiving the city, but he had negotiated terms with the central court a year ago, and Lu Bu ensured the interests of their Kuai family in order to get them.  The betrayal of Yuan Shao was like Cao Cao's betrayal of Liu Biao by ensuring the interests of the Kuai family in exchange for their betrayal of Liu Biao. Therefore, instead of dissuading Yuan Xi, he persuaded Yuan Xi to welcome Yan Liang's remnant troops into the city so that he could rely on the martial arts and experience of the general Yan Liang to defend Jiangling City.

    Yuan Xi was mediocre in martial arts, politics, and military affairs. What can be remembered is that besides being Yuan Shao's son, Yuan Tan's second brother, and Yuan Shang's second brother, the only thing left is that he was Zhen Mi's second brother.  A husband who will be remembered by all.  In this life, Yuan Xi was about to marry the daughter of Kuai Yue's brother Kuai Liang and marry into the Kuai family, so he never expected that Kuai Yue was already betraying him. In addition, Yan Liang was Yuan Shao's most powerful general and had followed Yuan Shao for more than ten years.  Such generals are the loyal dogs of the Yuan family.  He would definitely not betray Yuan Shao. Yuan Xi opened the city gate without much hesitation and let Yan Liang enter the city.

    Yan Liang pretended to step forward to greet Yuan Xi and plead guilty for the defeat. Yuan Xi smiled and helped Yan Liang up: "The traitor Lu Bu went out in person. He had to be with my father to resist. The general's defeat was really outnumbered and it was not a crime of war."  , don¡¯t be ashamed!¡±

    Yan Liang's rough face showed a hint of shame: "Second Young Master, I am indeed a little ashamed. Please forgive me for being rude!" As he spoke, he grabbed Yuan Xi, pulled out the sword from behind, and pressed it on Yuan Xi's neck.  superior.

    The five thousand troops brought by Yan Liang looked dejected and defeated.  Yan Liang gave an order, and they transformed into a new force of tigers descending from the mountain. With lightning speed, they captured the city gate and the commanding heights of the city, and shot all the middle and high-level generals under Yuan Xi's command who were loyal to the Yuan family.  The agents of Lu Bu's three major intelligence organizations who stayed in Jiangling City were dispatched one after another, and the local aristocratic families in Jingzhou who had long been in collusion with the central court dispatched their own troops. Jingzhou people loyal to Yuan Shao saw Yuan Xi falling into Yan Liang's hands.  Don't dare to fight head-on.  Yan Liang, on the other hand, carried out the killing without mercy, but in order to maximize the interests,

    A few hours later, Lu Bu's 100,000 troops rushed in, sealing the victory.

    Because Lu Bu is progressing very quickly.  After taking Jiangling City by chance, Yuan Tan, who was three hundred miles away, was still commanding 50,000 troops, looking for Lu Xun's troops who had taken advantage of the opportunity, because he received an intelligence that Lu Xun, who was in Yangzhou to conquer Shanyue, was leading two troops.  Thousands of people sneaked into Jingzhou with plans.  In order to prevent Lu Xun from affecting his father's great cause, Yuan Tan led his troops to the junction of Jingzhou and Yangzhou, hoping that the rolling mountains here would block Lu Xun's entry. He waited there for seven or eight days, but did not meet the two Lu Xuns.  Half a shadow of ten thousand men.

    At this time, an urgent report from his second brother Yuan Xi came from Jiangling City: "Father Yuan Shao was ambushed by Zhou Yu and Zhang Liao in Jiangxia. It was a lie that Lu Bu took a concubine, but it was true that he secretly sent troops. He has defeated Yan Liang and Shen Pei.  He joined forces with Zhou Yu and laid siege to Jiangling City, eager for support from his eldest brother. Now the third brother is captured by Lu Bu on his way to rescue Yizhou before breaking out of the siege. My father's foundation depends entirely on my eldest brother!"

    Yuan Tan was surprised and happy. He was surprised that his father and senior officials were defeated miserably, but he was happy that he finally no longer had to worry about his successor. The third brother was captured by Lu Bu, and the second brother was mediocre and incompetent. The world of the Yuan family only belongs to me.  Yuan Tan was shocked. He carefully looked at the handwriting on the letter. It was indeed from his second brother Yuan Xi. Looking at the messenger who sent the letter, he was indeed a confidant who had followed Yuan Xi for many years. He also received the letter from Gao Gan at the junction of Jingzhou and Jiaozhou.  After the news of Sun Ce's ambush confirmed everything, Yuan Tan eagerly broke camp and set off for Jiangling City.

    Yuan Tan did not have the confidence to defeat Lu Bu in the field, but he believed that if his 50,000 troops could compete with his second brother Yuan Xi's troops in Jiangling City, and if 100,000 troops were to defend the city, he would certainly not have to worry about Lu Bu's more troops.  When Lu Bu's army is cut off from food and grass, Lu Bu will naturally retreat. At that time, he will join forces with Liu Zhang and Liu Bei from Yizhou and Zhang Lu from Hanzhong. Although the three-party alliance is not enough to defeat Lu Bu, it can at least survive.

    Yuan Tan doesn¡¯t have much ambition now. He just wants to achieve peace.He smoothly took over the position of his father Yuan Shao, then faced Lu Bu and forced Lu Bu away.

    But even Lu Bu didn¡¯t want to fulfill such a small wish.

    Yuan Tan hurriedly hurriedly hurriedly, and after more than ten days, he withdrew from the mountains at the junction of Jingzhou and Yangzhou to a hundred miles outside Jiangling City. He could rush back to Jiangling in two days. The second brother said clearly in the letter,  My father suffered a disastrous defeat this time and was in a state of mental and physical distress. I'm afraid he will die soon. By then, he will be the legitimate lord of Jingzhou!

    Yuan Tan's eagerness for success caused trouble for the 50,000 Jingzhou troops who followed him. They marched day and night for more than ten days. They were not the Central Army, the best army in the world, and they couldn't bear it at all. Many of them fell tired and fell ill.  After a group of soldiers were killed, the rest could no longer hold on. Yuan Tan saw that his soldiers were in such a state, so he had no choice but to follow the advice of Yuan Xi's envoy and set up camp in a valley near the Xiangjiang River to give the soldiers a rest.

    The 50,000 Jingzhou soldiers were exhausted. They built camps hastily and lay down in tents to rest. Because it was the scorching summer, everyone was naked and their weapons and armor were scattered everywhere.

    At the third watch of the night, all the Jingzhou soldiers fell into a deep sleep, and even their commander-in-chief Yuan Tan lost his vigilance. It should be said that the brave and foolhardy Yuan Tan had no vigilance in the first place. He was driven by ambition to run wildly these days.  He was also exhausted, lying on the soft bed and fast asleep. Especially after he fucked two stunning women who were robbed on the road, he was so exhausted that he couldn't even move his fingers.

    At this time, a group of people and horses quietly appeared on the mountain, a group of people and horses also appeared in the upper reaches of the Xiangjiang River, and a group of light cavalry also came from the direction of Jiangling. The three armies turned around, and the horses and horses joined forces.  Generals Jin and Li Dian took the lead and rushed into Yuan's camp. They clashed back and forth. Yuan's army was in chaos and was defeated. It was impossible to organize an effective attack.

    The Central Army dispatched 60,000 horses, but only lost 1,000, and Yuan Tan's 50,000 horses were wiped out. When Yuan Tan fled, he met Cao Ren. Cao Ren shouted: "Avenge my brother Meng De."  !" With one strike, Yuan Tan, who was caught off guard, was beheaded off his horse, and Yuan Tan's head was used as a memorial to Cao Cao.

    Of the 50,000 Jingzhou troops, more than 13,000 were killed in the battle, and the rest all surrendered.

    Lu Bu sat in Jiangling and met with the surrendered generals of Yuan Jun and local aristocratic families in Jingzhou. The heads of the Kuai family, Ma family, Huang family, Pang family, Cai family, Zhang family and other aristocratic families all came to Jiangling city.

    ?? These aristocratic figures originally thought that after Yuan Shao became the fourth and third prince, he could lead the world's aristocratic families to compete with Lu Bu's central court. Now it seems that Yuan Shao is just a paper tiger. They all put aside their past grievances and actively made good friends with Lu Bu.

    Kuai Liang of the Kuai family had died of illness, and Kuai Yue was in charge. Lu Bu transferred Kuai Yue to serve in the court.

    The head of the Ma family is not named in the scriptures, so let's not mention it. Although Ma Liang and Ma Su among his five sons are young, Lu Bu took the initiative to summon them and let them go to the Central University in Luoyang to study, follow Mr. Shui Jing, and become Zhuge Liang.  The fathers of Ma Liang and Ma Su, their junior brothers, knew that this was Lu Bu's love for his son, and were very happy.

    Huang Chengyan, the head of the Huang family, made excuses and refused to accept Lu Bu's appointment. Lu Bu did not force him, but took the initiative to act as a matchmaker for his adopted son Zhuge Liang, so that Zhuge Liang could marry Huang Chengyan's daughter Huang Yueying.

    Lu Bu met Huang Yueying. Although she was not as ugly as she looked, she was not a stunning beauty. She had a very high IQ and had many wonderful ideas at a young age. Lu Bu recommended her to the Central University Women's College, and at the same time she became a disciple of Zheng Hui.  He learned the magic method of making, and after Zhuge Liang captured Hanzhong, he got the two married. Lu Bu believed in a judgment in history that half of Zhuge Liang's greatness was due to his wife Huang Yueying.

    This time, Lu Bu no longer listened to the boring and impulsive call to collect famous women from the Three Kingdoms, nor did he listen to the instigation of certain people. He wanted to rationally weigh whether this woman could be happier with him than she was in her previous life.  After a little judgment, Lu Bu clearly understood that Huang Yueying could only be Zhuge Liang's Huang Yueying and not Lu Bu's Huang Yueying. Moreover, Zhuge Liang was Lu Bu's adopted son and had no enmity with Lu Bu in that life. If Lu Bu took away Zhuge Liang's woman,  It will not produce any sense of achievement, so he will not take action this time, but should be Yue Lao.

    Pang Degong of the Pang family came with his nephew Pang Tong. Pang Tong was not yet known as Fengchu at this time, but Lu Bu treated him very warmly and did not alienate him at all because of Pang Tong's ugly appearance. Instead, he suggested to Pang De that he should accept Pang Tong as his righteous brother.  Although Pang Degong had a noble personality and did not want to be an official, for the development of the entire family, he still wanted his nephew Pang Tong, whose parents both died, to be Lu Bu's adopted son, so that he could achieve rapid success and promote the Pang family.

    Pang Tong was arrogant because of his talent, and he was ridiculed by the scholars because of his ugly appearance. Especially Yuan Shao, the master of the Appearance Association who liked his appearance and even picked a handsome heir, who was in Jingzhou. Pang Tong was even more praised for his ugly appearance.  A lot of ridicule, Yuan Shao's attitude and Lu Bu's attitudeThis formed a sharp contrast. After experiencing this contrast in Pang Tong's young mind, his gratitude to Lu Bu became stronger. He knelt down on the ground, worshiped Lu Bu as his adopted father, and swore to be loyal to Lu Bu forever.

    Lu Bu himself is also a member of the Appearance Association, but he is able to restrain his emotions about appearance and value talents. After trying his best to ignore Pang Tong's appearance and focus on his abilities, Lu Bu actually feels that Pang Tong is becoming more and more pleasing to his eyes. This shows that a man's talents and abilities are the most important.  The man is really handsome.

    Lu Bu temporarily kept Pang Tong by his side for training, and then sent him to Zhuge Liang when he matured a little, so that they could deal with Sima Yi who was under Liu Bei's account.
