Chapter 231 Liu Bei's egg

The human brain is a very unique organization. It generally has memory storage functions like a computer hard drive, but it is not as simple as computer hard drives, storage or deletion. Many times, the brain will use fuzzy memory to occupy as little memory space as possible. These fuzzy memories are usually difficult to call out, but once you encounter some related things, fuzzy memories will immediately come into contact with this.

A very simple example is that many times we do not really remember the dreams we have, and we can’t even remember any dreams we have. However, when the scene in the dream appears in the dream again, we suddenly feel extremely familiar, which is the result of vague memories being touched.

This is the case with Wu Fan at this time.

When Wu Fan heard that Liu Bei's army raised the red flag and the green flag was divided into two groups, he immediately remembered that this was the suspicious soldier that Zhuge Liang had set when he burned Xinye. He walked past Cao's army with great swagger, making Cao's army dare not act rashly. In fact, Zhuge Liang did not have to deal with these two suspicious soldiers at all. He could have directly let these two teams of ambush appropriately; the reason for doing this was nothing more than mocking Cao's army for being played around by him, which reflected his superiority in IQ.

Wu Fan was now angry, and thinking of these things made Wu Fan angry, throwing the letters to the ground, shouting:

"This is Zhuge Liang's plan to doubt the soldiers. You don't need to worry about it. Just kill him and wipe him out completely!"

The commander responded, turned his horse's head and was about to leave, but Wu Fan said again, "Let's wait!", and the commander quickly stopped the war horse and looked back at Wu Fan. He saw Wu Fan frowning slightly, thinking about something.

Wu Fan's calmness made him feel at ease even when he was angry. What Wu Fan thought of at this time was that once he ordered the two suspicious soldiers to be wiped out, although Zhuge Liang could endure it, it was very likely that he would change his established arrangement in surprise.

In that case, there will be more variables and I will be completely passive. Although I will definitely be able to defeat Xinye with my nearly 500,000 troops, it is better to pay less casualties in this affirmative result. Even if I can use the trick to deal with it and then severely damage Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, it would be even more perfect.

After carefully recalling the still vague memories, Wu Fan vaguely remembered that at this time, it seemed that Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei should be on a high slope of Quewei Slope, chatting and laughing while quiet Hou Jiayin.

In order to highlight Zhuge Liang's glorious image, Luo Guanzhong deliberately wrote Zhuge Liang like a Taoist immortal, always looking elegant and free. Of course, this is what people who like Zhuge Liang think. At this time, Wu Fan only thought that Zhuge Liang was very pretending, a person who was struck by lightning sooner or later!

Aren't you talking and laughing at Hou Jiayin? I just dismantled your platform, spitting your saliva and then raising your face, letting you look at how you can float up!

Thinking of this, Wu Fan said to the messenger:

"Send the order to continue, and Li Zhan, the name of Kunyuan, deliberately made a trap in front of these two suspicious soldiers, and hesitated. When these two suspicious soldiers completely disappeared, continue to march towards Xinye City."

Afterwards, Wu Fan ordered people to find Lu Lingqi. The two of them led 5,000 soldiers each - Wu Fan led 5,000 Qingzhou fighters, and Lu Lingqi led 5,000 Yuan Rong crossbow soldiers - left the large army and bypassed the vanguard army and headed towards Quewei Slope. Before leaving, Wu Fan asked his second brother Hua Xiong to temporarily lead the large army to continue to advance according to the established route.

The purpose of Wu Fan and Lu Lingqi leading these 10,000 people to Queweipo was to teach Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang a lesson in Jinghou Jieyin. It would be better if they could kill these two people directly. The reason why they only brought 10,000 people was to avoid scaring Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang away.

Quewei Slope is full of weeds and reeds, just like Bowang Slope. The terrain is flatter than Bowang Slope. There is only one earth mountain on the higher side, which is about three miles east of the official road leading to Xinye City.

Wu Fan and Lu Lingqi and his wife led their troops toward this earthen mountain.

There are a large number of weeds and trees growing on the earthen mountain. It is close to you. You can see clearly that there is an open space on the top of the mountain, with flags and two umbrellas. Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were sitting opposite each other and drinking, chatting and laughing, looking confident and confident, and they were so happy.

Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang also saw Wu Fan who had led their troops to the foot of the mountain. Liu Bei seemed a little panicked. Although he was still facing Zhuge Liang with his glass, his eyes were aiming at Wu Fan at the foot of the mountain from time to time. The wine in the glass had not been drunk for a long time and he no longer had the mood to drink.

Zhuge Liang, who was sitting in the car, turned his head and looked at Wu Fan, but he joked louder and gently shook the feather fan, not taking Wu Fan seriously at all. Not only that, Zhuge Liang also waved the feather fan, and the soldiers standing beside him immediately played the instruments, roaring loudly, full of mockery.

Seeing this scene, Wu Fan's anger that had just calmed down became more and more angry. Even Lu Lingqi couldn't stand it anymore. Her eyebrows were raised and her eyes widened. She just waited for her husband's order to immediately lead her troops to go up the mountain.

However, Wu Fan did not immediately order to attack the mountain, but recalled the plot in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

According to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Xu Zhu once saw Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang drinking on this earthen mountain and bragging loudly. Xu Zhu was furious and led his army to find a way up the mountain. However, there were rolling wood and stones on the mountain, which made Cao's army unable to move forward. At the same time, the shouts of killing in the back mountain were loud, which made Xu Zhu want to find a way to fight in the back mountain. In the process of finding the way, the soldiers and generals were lost. Then it was too late, so he had to give up his plan to attack the mountain and turn to Xinye City.

After thinking about it, Wu Fan knew it. Looking at Zhuge Liang who was still chatting and laughing on the top of the mountain, Wu Fan sneered a little and turned to Lu Lingqi:

"Lingqi, order your troops to set up a well railing and scatter rockets in the dense forests of the hillside."

Lu Lingqi took the order and immediately ordered the crossbow soldiers behind her to build a well railing.

At the same time, Liu Bei, who was looking at the foot of the mountain from time to time, saw that Cao's army was assembling the well railing, and immediately surprised Zhuge Liang, who was still joking:

"Sir, look, Cao Jun has made any moves!"

Seeing Liu Bei so panic, Zhuge Liang shook his head indifferently, then turned his head and glanced at the foot of the mountain, and was stunned.

He originally thought that the Cao army would attack the mountain in anger. Liu Bei said that the Cao army was just looking for a way up the mountain. Unexpectedly, the Cao army actually assembled a well under the mountain, without any intention of going up the mountain.

What exactly is Wu Fan going to do? Could he be trying to fire rockets? If this is true, thousands of soldiers who were ambushing in the dense forest on the hillside would be buried in the sea of ​​fire.

Liu Bei also asked the same question to Zhuge Liang at this time.

Zhuge Liang thought about it for a moment, but he calmed down again:

"Don't worry, lord, this Wu Fan is very cautious in marching. I think he must be very suspicious. Liang only needs one plan to lead his army back."

After saying that, he waved the feather fan to the side again. A flag soldier understood and immediately waved the flag to the back mountain.

The next moment, the well railing of the troops led by Lu Lingqi had not been fully assembled. The sound of killing in the back mountain suddenly shook loudly, and all Cao's army was shocked. Lu Lingqi turned her head and looked at Wu Fan, but saw Wu Fan digging his ear hole as if nothing had happened. Lu Lingqi said anxiously:

"My husband, the shouts of killing in the back mountain are shocking. I think the enemy has already ambushed. Should our army retreat as soon as possible?"

Wu Fan was unmoved and still said while digging his ear hole:

"Don't worry, madam, this is Zhuge Liang's plan to doubt the soldiers, so I don't have to pay attention to it. However, there are a large number of ambushers hidden in the dense forests of the hillside. Zhuge Liang used fire attacks one after another. This time we let him taste the taste!"

When Lu Lingqi heard Wu Fan say this, she had no doubts. At this time, the well railing had been assembled. Lu Lingqi immediately used the fire targeting skill, and ordered the Yuanrong crossbow soldiers to shoot arrows towards the dense forest area of ​​the hillside.

Yuanrong Crossbow Soldiers are the final profession of the "Three Kingdoms Infantry Bow Soldiers". The biggest selling point is that the arrows shot have extremely strong killing attributes, which can penetrate the enemy soldiers within the range of the arrow through the straight line distance. This attribute is very useful for dense enemy troops or ambushers hidden in the forest.

Especially the range of the well railing is more than twice that of the archers. In this way, when the Yuanrong crossbow soldiers shoot arrows from the well railing, the range of killing will become wider!

So, with Lu Lingqi's order, ten thousand rockets shot out of the well railing immediately formed a fire cloud and flew towards the dense forest on the hillside! In a blink of an eye, under the shocked gaze of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, a scream of ghosts and wolves howling sounded on the hillside. The ambush hiding behind the trees was useless at all. Not only were they penetrated by arrows, but they also ignited the plants and trees around them. The hillside suddenly became a sea of ​​fire!

In a shock, Zhuge Liang was puzzled: There was no problem with his arrangement. Whether he was reckless or cautious, he should fall into his own trap. Why was Wu Fan completely unaffected? Is this just a temporary luck, or is his wisdom really above me?

At this time, Lu Lingqi continued to order the Yuanrong crossbow soldiers to shoot arrows in the dense forest where the fire was not ignited. Liu Bei had already thrown away the wine glass and said anxiously to Zhuge Liang:

"Sir, if this continues, all our army will be burned to death here. Sir, think of a solution!"

Zhuge Liang woke up after being called by Liu Bei, and quickly threw away half a glass of wine left in his hand and comforted Liu Bei:

"Don't worry, lord, Liang has his own skills to change the sky, which makes the fire unable to continue."

Instead, Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan in his hand a few times. The originally clear and cloudless sky immediately covered with cloudy clouds and suddenly rained heavily.

The fires ignited everywhere on the hillside were quickly extinguished under the heavy rain. However, the fire was extinguished, and the arrows of the Yuanrong crossbow soldiers continued to spread. The grass and trees on the hillside were burned by the fire, and the branches and leaves were gone. The ambush could no longer be hidden. The Yuanrong crossbow soldiers were able to watch the target and shoot arrows, causing heavy casualties to Liu Bei's army.

On the other hand, Wu Fan was also waiting for this opportunity. He had already decided that Zhuge Liang would definitely use the heavenly change to extinguish the fire after the fire broke out. Therefore, he had already condensed his energy in advance. At this time, heavy rain fell from the sky, accompanied by thunder. Wu Fan had already taken off the Yangyouji bow at the same time, bent his bow and arrows to aim at Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang on the top of the mountain, and shot an arrow hard.

Why did Wu Fan wait for the opportunity to shoot arrows when it rains? The reason is that when Wu Fan practices the Sky-Breaking Arrow, the random attributes of the Sky-Breaking Arrow are not completely irregular. For example, when the sun is scorching, the chance of touching the flame attribute is higher, when the ice is snowy, the chance of touching the ice attribute is higher, when the rainstorm is pouring, the chance of touching the thunder attribute is higher, and when the visibility is low, the chance of touching the thunder attribute is higher. And as the skill proficiency increases, the chance of touching the lightning attribute becomes more obvious.

Of course, taking the current heavy rain as an example, the chance of the Breaking Heaven-Breaking Arrow touching the thunder attribute is only high, not 100% touching the thunder attribute. However, once the thunder attribute is touching, the attribute is very powerful.

Besides, the arrow shot by Wu Fan really touched the strong thunder attribute as Wu Fan expected! Wherever he passed, a thick electric arc like a bucket was protruded from the clouds, smashing all the creatures within 500 meters on the left and right sides where the arrow passed into pieces!

Among the flying wood chips and broken limbs, arrows carrying powerful energy had already flew to the top of the mountain. Although Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were not first-class generals, they were not ordinary people. They had long seen the arrow shot by Wu Fan, so they had already left their seats and stood up and ran away, and then hurriedly fell to both sides.

With a loud bang, arrows exploded on the table where the two of them drank, and the wine pots, wine glasses, and various fruits and meat on the table flew up in scattered ways. The soldiers who were still playing music had already met the King of Hell before they could understand what was going on.

The next moment, Wu Fan had already led his army to the top of the mountain. Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang escaped by chance and got up from the pile of corpses. They were covered in dust and had no trouble. They no longer had the freedom and freedom before. They looked at each other and had no mood of talking and laughing. Instead, they rolled and crawled into the grass and trees in the back mountain and ran away.

Although this earthen mountain is not very high, it takes about ten minutes to run from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. When Wu Fan led his men to the top, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang naturally escaped without a trace.

There was a mess on the top of the mountain, with wine, vegetables, meat and corpses everywhere. Wu Fan ordered people to search carefully and found that the corpses were all soldiers, and Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were not among them.

Wu Fan was very disappointed when he heard this news. He turned his head and looked at the car that Zhuge Liang was riding crookedly on the side. It had been blown away to the point where only one wheel was left. Wu Fan walked up angrily, lifted the car with one hand and threw it on the rock dozens of meters away. With the "bang" sound, the car was smashed to pieces and scattered all over the ground. The remaining wheel rolled back at this time, and was lifted by Wu Fan and kicked it out hundreds of meters away.

At this time, it was getting late, and it was about five o'clock in the evening. Wu Fan ordered the entire army to go down the mountain and continue to march towards Xinye City.

In this contest, the 5,000 soldiers who were ambushing Liu Bei on the front hillside were wiped out, which made Liu Bei's army, which had not had many troops, even more frost. None of the 20,000 troops led by Wu Fan and Lu Lingqi were injured. If Zhuge Liang knew the result of this battle at this time, he would probably not continue to implement his plan to burn Xinye, and Liu Bei's army would not have been severely damaged in this plan.

...

Let’s look back at Wu Fan’s apprentice Li Zhan. The nearly 100,000 vanguard troops led by him were unblocked and entered Xinye City directly.

Li Zhan was a little hesitant about how smooth the journey went. While ordering the troops to make rice, Li Zhan sent someone to report the situation in the city to Wu Fan.

Wu Fan and Lu Lingqi had already returned to the large army at this time, and had just heard the information from the spy they had preset in Xinye City, saying that Liu Bei issued a list to inform the people of Cao's army to massacre the city and take the people of the whole city to Fancheng. Moreover, after the people of the whole city left the city, Liu Bei's army seemed to have made some arrangements in the city, and the specific situation was unknown.

Wu Fan nodded. What the spy said was enough for him, which was enough to prove that Zhuge Liang would burn Xinye next.

When the spy said that the people in the city fled to Fancheng with Liu Bei because of the false notice posted by Liu Bei, Wu Fan's heart was moved. In history, Liu Bei fled from Xinye and the people in the city followed him to escape moved countless people who did not know the truth in the future. They once used this as evidence to strongly praise Liu Bei's benevolence, righteousness and love for the people.

Now it seems that the reality is not necessarily the case.

In fact, Wu Fan has always been skeptical of this history: Liu Bei is not a fool. If Cao's army really wanted to chase and kill the people, wouldn't he know that he could not escape the pursuit with hundreds of thousands of people? If Liu Bei really didn't want the people to be killed, he should let the people scatter and disperse their targets to escape, instead of gathering the people together like this.

So, why did Liu Bei make a list and lie to the people and make them escape to Fancheng with him?

Wu Fan felt that there must be a mystery in this. He remembered that Guo Jia happened to be in the army, so he ordered the soldiers to call Guo Jia.

Guo Jia and Zhuge Liang are the two top think tanks in Cao Cao and Liu Bei's camps respectively. Guo Jia died young and was unable to confront Zhuge Liang, which made the later fans of Cao and Guo fans very much. At present, this regret can be achieved through Wu Fan's hands.

In fact, during the three-year war break, Guo Jia did experience physical weakness and illness. Fortunately, Wu Fan had medical skills and diagnosed Guo Jia in time. After Guo Jia's illness stabilized, he went to Yecheng in person and spent 10,000 gold to buy lacquered leaf green sticky treasures at the "big businessman", worth 25, and the function is: extend your life and give it to Guo Jia when he comes back.

Guo Jia naturally burst into tears at Wu Fan. Since he received the lacquer and lemon, Guo Jia's body has become very healthy, and his complexion is much rosy than before he was seriously ill, and it is no different from ordinary people. Judging from his current appearance, it is no problem to live for another thirty or forty years.

After a while, Guo Jia came to Wu Fan under the guidance of the soldiers. After hearing Wu Fan express his questions in his heart, Guo Jia thought for a while and said:

"This is the sinister and deceitful thing between Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei. Our army first came to Jingnan in Chu, and Jingbei was collectively called Chu. The local people were very afraid of our army. This was the time to appease the people and win the trust of the people. Liu and Zhu knew this well, so they led the people to flee and hid the people's army, making it difficult for our army to attack them: if we kill the people, our army would lose the people's hearts; if we did not kill the people, Liu Bei could escape to Fancheng safely."

When Wu Fan heard this, he suddenly realized—

Liu Bei, I knew that a guy like you with great ambitions could not be as kind as Liu Zhang, Zhang Lu, and Liu Biao as you are. Your so-called benevolent policy must have an unspeakable purpose. Just like at this time, use the trust of the people in you as a means of winning over, so that the people will be willing to serve as a shield for you, and will still be thinking about your good deeds until death.

Instead, Wu Fan asked Guo Jia:
Chapter completed!
