There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

Liu Bei was silent for a while and said, "Is it Yide that Yun Chang is referring to?"

Guan Yu nodded, and said: "Yide is still in the hands of the potter, if we don't rescue him, we will leave like this, wouldn't we be breaking the Taoyuan oath back then?"

Liu Bei pondered for a while, and said, "But Yun Chang, do you know that if we don't leave, when Jiangling City is broken the next day, and you and I fall into the hands of potters, none of us three brothers will survive. If you want to use Yide as a hostage to deal with you and me, only if we live can Yide survive."

Chapter 875 The End of Jingzhou

When Zhang Fei woke up, what caught his eyes was the red beams, but the feeling under his body was soft, obviously a soft bed.

Zhang Fei's mind was a little confused. He probably recalled what happened before he passed out in his mind. He chased Ma Zhong by himself, and because of the severe pain in his abdomen, he fell on the horse's back and couldn't get up.

Then when he opened his eyes, what fell in his eyes was the current scene.

Zhang Fei smacked his mouth, as if he felt a little thirsty, he wanted to call for someone to give him a sip of water, but he opened his mouth, but he didn't know who to call.

At this moment, a waiter-like person came up and gently poured water into Zhang Fei's mouth with a spoon.

Zhang Fei smashed his mouth, turned his head to look at the waiter who gave him water in doubt, then frowned, and said, "Who are you?"

The messenger didn't answer him with an indifferent expression on his face. After feeding him the water, he turned and left.

Seeing that the waiter didn't answer his words, Zhang Fei suddenly lost his temper. He shouted at the messenger, "Get out of here! I'm asking you something, didn't you hear me?"

The envoy seemed to have not heard it, and walked out of the hall with a bowl of water in his hand.

Zhang Fei pouted, sulking from the sidelines, but at this moment, he saw the pottery merchant walking over.

The pottery merchant had been sitting in this room just now, but he didn't speak, so Zhang Fei didn't notice him.

"That person is my subordinate." Tao Shang quietly answered Zhang Fei's question for the waiter.

Zhang Fei was startled when he heard this.

He turned his head in surprise, looked at the potter, and said in surprise, "You scared me to death!"

The potter held a cup in his hand, which contained tea that Mi Zhu had sent him as a tribute from Xuzhou.

He took a sip lightly and said with emotion: "Good tea."

Zhang Fei regained his composure after the initial bewilderment. He stared closely at the pottery merchant not far away with his big eyes like copper bells.

"Why didn't you kill me?" Zhang Fei roared hoarsely.

The potter picked up the teacup and said, "We are old acquaintances. If you count carefully, it seems to be more than ten years. Why bother to kill?"

Zhang Fei snorted heavily: "You want me to surrender to you? Dreaming!"

The potter put down the lamp in his hand and said, "I know that you are loyal to your elder brother Liu Bei."

Zhang Fei said angrily: "Since you understand everything, why did you spare my life?"

The potter raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I was thinking, what if your elder brother is also willing to surrender to me? In this way, wouldn't the three of you brothers not only not be separated, but also not suffer from being displaced in the future? , wouldn't it be nice?"

Zhang Fei's nose almost turned out of breath.

Is this bastard telling a joke?

"Tao, stop dreaming here, can my elder brother surrender to you?"

Tao Shang smiled and picked up a letter and a pen from the table, shook Zhang Fei, and said, "Actually, this is not necessarily true. According to your brother's original intentions, he might not surrender to me, but if you Write a letter to help me persuade him to surrender to him, maybe there will be a door for this matter, after all, he is a sworn brother who knocked his head on the ground, if you say it, your elder brother will listen to a few words, right?"

Zhang Fei's face twitched in anger.

He felt that the muscle wound in his abdomen seemed to be split open again.

"Go! Go!" Zhang Fei yelled at the pottery.

After pacifying the south of Jingzhou, the potters began to gather all kinds of troops in the south of Jingzhou, and led by the navy, they began to attack the location of Jiangling City in the north.

Right now, Jiangling City is being forcibly attacked by Zhao Yun, Xu Chu, Huang Zhong and other strong troops from the north. Although the city has not been lost, it is like duckweed in the wind, and it is in danger of laying eggs.

At the same time, Liu Bei had sent someone to Xichuan to send news to check on Liu Zhang's movements.

After all, at this moment, even if he wanted to go to Xichuan to seek refuge in accordance with Pang Degong's method, it was still unknown whether Liu Zhang would accept him or not.

Although Liu Zhang and Liu Biao formed the Sanliu Alliance with him back then, but at one time and another, everyone was an alliance at that time, but now he is a lost dog.

The envoy who quietly left the city did not go far along the waterway, and met the Xichuan reinforcements who came to meet Liu Bei at the upper reaches of Xichuankou, and hurried back, and explained to Liu Bei the sincerity of Xichuan Liuzhang's invitation to Sichuan.

Liu Bei never expected that Liu Zhang would invite him to Sichuan, and he had already sent troops to Xichuankou to meet him.

But in any case, this is a good thing for him after all.

But what Liu Bei didn't know was that Liu Zhang was actually forced to do so now.

Cao Cao, who had entered Guanzhong, had already seized the land of Hanzhong. He gathered his elite soldiers and generals to station in Hanzhong, watching the land of Xichuan. For Liu Zhang, this threat was extremely great.

Although Cao Cao has lost the Central Plains today, his strong troops are still there, and there are not a few fierce generals, and the support of the central princes is even more relevant.

Although Liu Zhang's Yizhou land is fertile and rich, there are few generals who are used to fighting. Among them, Zhang Ren, Yan Yan and others are the most powerful. From Liu Zhang's point of view, he is definitely not Cao Cao's opponent.

And at this juncture, the news of Jingzhou reached his ears.

Liu Zhang couldn't be happier at this moment, so he immediately sent Zhang Ren to Yong'an and Chen Bing at Xichuankou to carefully observe Liu Bei's movements in Jingzhou.

If Liu Bei and a group of Jingzhou generals can be welcomed into Xichuan and help him fight against the enemy, it will undoubtedly be a great help.

At least they are all of the same family with the surname Liu, and everyone lives happily together, sealing off Xichuan, letting the potters or Cao Cao fight to the death outside of Sichuan, and this has nothing to do with their Liu surname clan.

At least you can spend your rest of your life here happily.

After Liu Bei got this information, he immediately started planning. He began to plan his plan to escape upstream, and made a list of people who would flee with him.

After all, not everyone can escape with him, and he should keep these things relatively secret.

In the seventh year of Jiankang, after the potters pacified the southern part of Jingzhou, they commanded an army to go northward and headed straight for Jiangling City. Zhao Yun, Guo Jia and others organized an army on the north bank of Jiangling to cooperate with the potters and began to launch a round towards Jiangling City. new offensive.

The warships of the potters were all equipped with trebuchets at the moment, and the warships bombarded the top of Jiangling City endlessly on the river roads on three sides of Jiangling City.

The army of Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong, who attacked from the north, also mobilized various siege weapons from the Central Plains and Yangzhou.

For three consecutive days, the entire Jiangling City was shrouded in flying stones, like dark clouds, which made people palpitate and panic.

Chapter 876 The Emperor's Servant

The situation in Jiangling City naturally affects not only the ordinary people in Jiangling City, but the most important ones are the ministers in the court, officials in Jiangling City, and high-status gentry groups.
