Not to mention how wretched and unscrupulous Yuan Shu was, it was Fang Gu who was ordered to send Zang Ba as an envoy and arrived in the Langxie Kaiyang area. Originally, Zang Ba was stationed in Taishan County. However, because Lu Bu was at war with Cao Cao, Zang Ba stationed his troops in Langye Kaiyang, a place very close to Pengcheng, to wait and see. On this day, it was around noon, the weather was neither good nor bad, it was cloudy. Fang Gu and dozens of people under his command stood outside Kaiyang City. "It's such a strong city. If you occupy this place, you can protect yourself. Plus there are such powerful soldiers." Fang Gu sighed. ????????????????????????????????????: Kaiyang City is several feet high in front of us. "Zang", there are many soldiers stationed and patrolling in all directions of the commander's flag. This group of soldiers has a strong momentum, which is not comparable to ordinary stragglers. Fang Gu was born in the army, and he was very good at distinguishing the strength of the army, so he knew he was going to the army. Other than that, I feel nothing. Fang Gu was here for a while, but he didn't see a single person coming in or out. Fang Gu knew that either the people in this city were sparse and deserted, or Zang Ba had issued a ban and no people were allowed to go in or out. "Let's go and meet General Zang, the leader of the separatist army." After stopping for a while, Fang Gu reined in his horse and ordered. Before he could finish his words, the person had already rushed over. "Promise." Dozens of people behind him all agreed, reined in their horses and followed. "Whoever comes, let me know your name first." Since there are no people coming in or out, and Fang Gu and others are all equipped with horses, and their momentum is not weak, they have already attracted the attention of the defenders on the city. At this moment, seeing Fang Gu Gu and others came on horseback, and there was a sudden commotion in the city. Some soldiers also shouted loudly. "I am a general under Emperor Zhong. I have come here to see General Zang. I also ask this sergeant to report." When Fang Gu was at a certain distance, he reined in his horse and stopped, and then he opened his mouth and shouted. "Huainan?" A look of awe flashed in the sergeant's eyes. He knew it would be impossible without reporting, so he opened his mouth and replied, "Please wait a moment." "Thank you." Fang Gu thanked him. And the sergeant quickly got off the city wall, sat on his horse and rushed towards the city like flying. Soon after, the sergeant arrived at a mansion. The guard in front of this mansion is very tight. It is Zang Ba's general's mansion. "Is the general here?" the sergeant stepped forward and asked. "The general is discussing important matters with General Sun Guan in the hall." the guard replied. "Okay." The sergeant said, then got off his horse and walked in. Shortly after. The sergeant arrived outside the hall. Before saluting, the sergeant looked at it for a moment. I saw two people sitting in the hall, one of whom was white and white. He looks quite elegant, but the other person is very fierce with a strong waist and a strong back. "General, there is a man outside the city gate who claims to be a general under Yuan Shu of Huainan, asking to see him." The sergeant saluted the elegant man. But it turned out that this fair and elegant man was the famous Zang Ba, and the man with a strong waist and a tiger's back, who looked very fierce, was actually Zang Ba's companion. General Sun Guan. "A general under Yuan Shu?" Zang Ba said with a hint of surprise on his face after hearing this. "I'm afraid it's also for Cao Cao. We might as well meet up with Liu Bei to besiege Pengcheng." Sun Guan thought about it for a while. said. "Of course." Zang Ba nodded, and then said to the sergeant: "Invite him in and be polite." "Promise." The sergeant agreed, turned around and walked away. "How is it? Should we save Lu Bu or not?" Zang Ba asked Sun Guandao. But it turned out that the two of them were discussing whether to save Lu Bu or not. What to do if rescued. Before the result was achieved, Fang Gu came to kill him. "Yuan Shu actually sent someone here, which means he clearly supports Lu Bu. If it were Yuan Shu in the past, he would be vulnerable. But I heard that in recent days, he has refined his troops and generals, with Yuan Yin and Ji Ling as generals. This Both of them are quite reliable. Therefore, if Yuan Shu joins, Lu Bu has a chance of winning. If we join him, we may not be able to make a decision. "Sun Guan was also uncertain and said. "Yes, if we succeed, we can still stay in this area and continue to live happily. If we fail, we may become prisoners." Zang Ba was also worried and sighed. This is the limitation of Zang Ba. If he was just a general, he would be indomitable and capable of becoming a general. But doing this lord's work is ultimately a matter of rescuing Lu Bu or not, but Zang Ba is unable to take on the important task.  It is difficult to judge the situation from all parties and find its own path, and it lacks the ambition to be independent and self-reliant. "Forget it, let's talk about it later when we meet General Yuan Shu." In the end, Zang Ba still had no clue and had to sigh and said. "Yeah." Sun Guan responded and agreed. "Da da da." Not long after, a sound of footsteps was heard, and then, the sergeant walked in, and led a person in. Seeing the person's bear back, the momentum is not the same. Immediately, Zang Ba and Sun Guan's eyes lit up, and then they looked at each other, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes. "This man is extraordinary. Could it be that he is Yuan Shu's general Ji Lingcheng?" "But Ji Ling is a general under Yuan Shu, so how can he do such a thing as an envoy?" ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away???????? But Zang Ba and Sun Guan didn't show even a hint of Zang Ba or Sun Guan on their faces. "I'm sorry for the delay in greeting our distinguished guest." Zang Ba smiled and stood up to greet him. Sun Guan also stood up and bowed. "I'm just a common man, I don't dare to be an honored guest." This man was naturally Fang Gu. When Zang Ba greeted Fang Gu, he said with a smile and raised his fist. The words were filled with the atmosphere of marching, and suddenly there was a sound of gold and iron horses rushing towards them. This made Zang Ba and Sun Guan even more confused. Is it really Ji Ling? "May I ask who is under Emperor Zhong's command?" Zang Ba decided to get straight to the point and asked. "General, please step back." Fang Gu smiled when he heard this, glanced at the sergeant who led him in, and said. "I have to retreat to show my identity. Is there something secret about my identity?" Zang Ba and Sun Guan's hearts moved. Then, Zang Ba ordered the sergeant without hesitation: "Go down first, close the gate, and station yourself in front of the gate. No one is allowed to enter." "Promise." The sergeant agreed, turned around and walked out. After a while, the door to the hall was closed. Suddenly, the entire hall became dim, and only Fang Gu was left in the hall. Zang Ba and Sun Guan. In this small world, you can talk about anything without fear of having ears through the walls. So, Fang Gu showed his identity. Facing Zang Ba, Sun Guan raised his fist and said: "In fact, I am not a general under the command of Yuan Gong, but a general under the command of General Wancheng Jianzhong, the commander-in-chief of General Chen Sheng of Runan County. Fang Gu is also the one." At this point, Fang Gu paused. , and then explained: "Because of the special status. I really can't let outsiders know, so I pretended to be a general under the command of Yuan Gong. Please don't take offense to the relationship here." Fang Gu expressed his identity easily. Linmei also expressed his concealed apology. But to Zang Ba and Sun Guan, it sounded like a storm in the sea. ??Twists and turns. The first thing was when Zang Ba heard Fang Gu claiming that he was not a general under Yuan Shu. Sun and Guan's bodies immediately tensed up, and they naturally took a defensive stance. But I thought it was an assassin from somewhere. but. That's it. Zang Ba and Sun Guanjian are brave and good at fighting, but they are not afraid of assassins. And when I heard Sun Guan claiming to have completed the long history under Chen Sheng. Zang Ba and Sun Guan's tense bodies suddenly relaxed, but then there was a shocking wave. Wancheng Chen Sheng? There is no need to describe how resounding the reputation is and how outstanding the combat power of the troops under his command is. He is a rare outstanding person in the world. Because he was as brave and good at fighting as Sun Ce, he was considered by many to be the overlord of Jingzhou. Under Chen Sheng's minions, it was very doubtful whether the weak Liu Biao could hold Jingzhou. Such characters, Zang Ba and Sun Guan are naturally like thunder. But the two of them never expected that they would come into contact with Chen Sheng's forces, because Chen Sheng's forces were too far away from here. It is basically unlikely that you will come into contact with them. Moreover, there is no need for contact. As weak players, Zang and Ba knew that they only relied on close support, not long-distance support. As the saying goes, water far away cannot save fire near. If you are in trouble, you have to ask your neighbors for help. Zang Ba and Sun Guan understand this very well. In short, it is unlikely that they will have any intersection with Chen Sheng. But now, the intersection has arrived. After calming down for a while, Zang Ba and Sun Guan were both very surprised, and then doubts arose. Why does Chen Sheng appear at this time, and what does it have to do with the battle between Lu Bu and Cao Cao. Moreover, Fang Gu came into contact in the name of General Yuan Shu. What kind of situation is there? Have Chen Sheng and Yuan Shu already been in contact and formed an alliance? Zang Ba and Sun Guan¡¯s expressions changed, and it took them a long time to calm down completely. After calming down, Zang Ba first raised his fist towards Fang Gu again and saluted solemnly: "It turns out that Fang Changshi is in front." Then, Zang Ba expressed his apology, "Because this news is really shocking. Sorry, I lost my temper for a moment, so I ask Fang Changshi to forgive me." Then, Zang Ba thought that Fang Gu had already revealed his identity, but he hadn't introduced him yet, so he pointed to Sun Guan next to him and said, "This is me. Companion Sun Guan, General Sun. "I have met Fang Changshi." Sun Guan also calmed down and said politely. "It doesn't matter." Fang Gu first said something arrogant to Zang Ba, and then returned the courtesy to Sun Guan: "I have met General Sun." "May I ask what the purpose of Chang Shi's visit is? What is the purpose of General Chen? General Chen What is the relationship with Mr. Yuan of Huainan?" After the introduction, Zang Ba couldn't wait to ask. Sun Guan also pricked up his ears. Chen Sheng, what kind of changes will his joining bring? Zang Ba and Sun Guan both want to know.
