Chapter 15
Zhang Liao surrendered!
Liu Bei was overjoyed and hurriedly helped Zhang Liao up, caressed his shoulders and said with emotion:
"I have tiger generals like Wen Yuan, so why worry about not being able to help our great Han Dynasty?"
"After today, I am ready to fight side by side with you and prosper the Han Dynasty together!"
Zhang Liao's blood boiled when he heard these heroic words.
As if infected by Liu Bei's ideals and beliefs, Zhang Liao quietly felt a sense of mission in his heart.
The sense of mission to fight for the revival of the Han Dynasty!
That kind of excitement made him feel excited. The surging feeling was something he had never felt before, whether he was following Ding Yuan or Lu Bu.
"Liao is willing to follow the envoy and restore my Han Dynasty!"
Zhang Liao clasped his fists and expressed his stance once again.
The two principals looked at each other and smiled, letting go of their previous suspicions.
Old Liu had Zhang Liao's heart, and Deng Mu also breathed a sigh of relief, so he took advantage of the situation and suggested:
"Liu Shijun, the lower official heard that the Shijun also captured half of the cavalry, all of whom were Lu Bu's Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry."
"Wen Yuan is good at commanding cavalry, so why don't you continue to hand over these hundreds of elite wolf cavalry to Wen Yuan's command?"
No one knows Zhang Liao's ability better than Deng Mu.
Bailangshan defeated Wuhuan and beheaded Taodun, and Xiaoyaojin defeated Sun Shiwan. They relied on the ability to command the cavalry with one hand. Let
Zhang Liao command the cavalry, which is the best use of his talents.
And Lu Bu Therefore, he is the best general in the world, not only because of his martial arts, but also because of his eight hundred elite wolf cavalry in Bingzhou.
When he escaped from Tongguan and defected to Yuan Shao, it was with his eight hundred wolf cavalry that he defeated Yuan Shao's order. The helpless Black Mountain Cavalry.
This shows how elite the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry is.
In this battle, Lu Bu underestimated the enemy, and the Wolf Cavalry suffered heavy losses. Nearly 300 of the Cavalry were captured by Lao Liu.
For Lao Liu, this was a huge disaster in the world. Cake!
With three hundred wolf cavalry, plus Zhang Liao, a famous general who is good at unifying cavalry, the combat effectiveness of Liu's army is equivalent to a new level.
"What Zi Yu said makes sense!"
"Wen Yuan, those three hundred wolf riders will continue to be commanded by you!"
Liu Bei was reminded and immediately understood the significance of these three hundred wolf cavalry and accepted Deng Mu's suggestion without hesitation.
Zhang Liao was surprised and looked at Liu Bei in disbelief.
When he first surrendered, Liu Bei sent the elite cavalry to , all of them were handed over to his command?
This trust, this unquestioning demeanor in employing people really shocked Zhang Liao
"Xuande Gong is really the master of the Ming Dynasty, Lu Fengxian is far behind..."
Zhang Liao sighed in admiration in his heart.
Then he cupped his hands and said with emotion:
"Thank you for your lord's trust. Liao Ding will lead the wolf cavalry and charge into the battle for your lord, without fear of death!"
After receiving Zhang Liao's statement, Liu Bei was full of joy, stroking his short beard and looking at Deng Mu with a smile.
A great victory, avenging his previous shame.
He gained another general from Zhang Liao, and hundreds of elite wolf cavalry.
All the gains, All thanks to this Jingxiang genius in front of me
"It’s a pity that Liu Jingsheng doesn’t know how to reuse such a genius."
"It would be great if such a person could be Liu Bei's counselor..."
Liu Bei admired and admired in his heart, but his eyes could not help but reveal deep regret.
Deng Mu ate the last bit of biscuit in his hand, wiped it dry, and patted it He clapped his hands and said with a smile:
"Liu Shijun, Lu Bu has been cast out of the shadows, I don’t dare to pursue him again after thinking about it."
"Let's just feel at ease and head west to Jingzhou."
Liu Bei did not delay, and happily sent the order, and the whole army set off.
With more than 3,000 soldiers of the Liu army, carrying the power of the victory, they headed west.
While Liu Bei sang a triumphant song and headed west, Lu Bu headed east in despair. , fled back to Xiapi.
Xiapi City, the state capital
"What?"
"Marquis Wen was ambushed by Liu Bei, and more than half of his five thousand soldiers were killed or injured?"
In the palace, Chen Gong jumped up, his face full of disbelief.
"boom!"
Lu Bu's helmet hit the table and he complained angrily:
"Gongtai, you claim to be a clever strategist, but you didn't even see through Liu Bei's scheme, causing me to suffer such a disastrous defeat!"
At this time, Lu Bu changed his attitude from the time when he admired Chen Gong so much, and he seemed to want to shirk the blame.
Chen Gong frowned slightly and swallowed secretly, but the shock on his face turned into confusion.
"He could calculate that Marquis Wen would lead a large army to pursue him, and he could also take advantage of the terrain to set up an ambush on the front line of Daze Township."
"He could also use Guan Yu to pretend to be in the rear and retreat steadily to lure Wen Hou into neglecting his defense and advance with his light army."
"Anyone who can come up with such a trick must be very resourceful."
"How could Liu Bei have such a person under his command?"
Chen Gong explained all the doubts and was puzzled.
Lu Bu slapped the table and gritted his teeth and said:
"I also can't figure it out. Who among the big-eared thieves has this ability?"
"Jian Yong, Sun Qian, and that Mi Zhu are all just mediocre people. I don’t believe they have such intelligence!"
Chen Gong twirled his beard, his eyes changing constantly, and murmured to himself:
"Could it be that Liu Bei had acquired some powerful adviser and set up this plan for him?"
"But among Xu Huai, I really can't think of anyone who has such strength..."
Just as the two officials were guessing, the scout stumbled in and brought a surprising news.
Cao Bao, the father-in-law, was captured and served as Liu Bei's wife. Beheading.
Zhang Liao was captured, but he surrendered to Liu Bei with three hundred wolf cavalry.
It was like a bolt from the blue, hitting the main hall. There was an uproar in the hall.
Lu Bu's color changed suddenly, and he was stunned for a moment.
Cao Bao and Zhang Liao were abandoned by him in a tight siege. He was mentally prepared for their capture.
Liu Bei changed his image of a bad guy and actually killed his father-in-law Cao Bao, which really surprised him.
But Lu Bu could barely accept it.
After all, Cao Bao was the main culprit for Liu Bei's loss of Xuzhou. Even if he was a merciful master like Liu Bei, it was understandable to kill him in anger.
But Zhang Liao!
That subordinate who had followed him for many years, his own Northland A fellow countryman actually betrayed him and surrendered to Liu Bei?
This was almost like a slap in the face and a heavy pinch of salt on his wound!
"Zhang Liao!"
"You disloyal and unjust thief!"
"How dare you be so shameless and betray me?——"
Lu Bu's hysterical and angry roar rang out in the palace.
