"Kill them all, and let our Duke Xuande watch carefully how his soldiers died because of him!"
Xiang Kunlun looked at Liu Bei indifferently and said coldly. The Tianlong city-breaking halberd in his hand slowly left Liu Bei's throat, and he turned around to watch his subordinates start a bloody massacre.
A soldier named Liu Bei raised his sword directly at the surrounded soldiers of Liu Bei. The sword light flashed across, setting off pieces of blood mist. A soldier named Liu Bei covered his throat and fell to the ground. For a time, the entire land was soaked in a pool of blood.
Liu Bei looked at his soldiers lying in a pool of blood, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart. His eyes were bloodshot, and he roared hoarsely, "Xiang Kunlun, stop it!"
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei next to them also stared with anger. They looked with red eyes at Xiang Jiajun who was slaughtering the soldiers they had worked so hard to train. They kept clenching their hands tightly, and the weapons in their hands were also trembling from the squeeze.
"Stop? Liu Xuande, Xiang asked you, when we were in the Zhen family, it was you who allowed your third brother to rush up and seize my position. Did Xiang offend you first? This time you are trying to avenge the humiliation in the Zhen family. Their hatred is to unite with the Yellow Turban Army to kill Xiang. Are you worthy of being called a clan member of the Han Dynasty?"
Xiang Kunlun's words were like sharp arrows, each word directly attacked Liu Bei's soul, each word was heartbreaking. Liu Bei felt a tightness in his chest, opened his mouth slightly, and spat out a mouthful of old blood in the air.
"Brother!"
After Guan Yu and Zhang Fei saw their eldest brother vomiting blood, they shouted hurriedly, supported themselves with their own weapons and ran quickly to Liu Bei's side.
"Brother, are you okay?"
Guan Yu looked at his eldest brother eagerly and hugged him in his arms. Zhang Fei also looked at Liu Bei eagerly. Liu Bei weakly wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth with his sleeve and shook his head laboriously.
"Brother, it's okay, you don't need to worry..."
Looking at the weak Liu Bei, Xiang Kunlun smiled coldly, got on his mount, and said to Zhou Cang and Gao Shun.
"Boping, Yuanfu, take your brothers and return to the city!"
Gao Shun and Zhou Cang took the order and shouted loudly. A group of Xiang's troops, led by the second general, followed Xiang Kunlun and left, leaving only the corpses of Liu Bei's soldiers on the ground.
Looking at the corpses on the ground and the retreating figures of Xiang Kunlun's army, Liu Bei drew a mouthful of blood again, then his vision went dark and he fell into Guan Yu's arms.
"Brother! Brother!"
…
Zhongshan Kingdom, on the city wall, Zhen Yao was pacing back and forth anxiously, looking outside the city from time to time. Finally, a group of people appeared in his sight.
One of the banners with the word "Xiang" raised high made Zhen Yao immediately overjoyed, "General Xiang, it's General Xiang, here comes, hurry up, go and report to my brother, General Xiang is back!"
"promise,"
"General Xiang wins! General Xiang defeats the Yellow Turban Army!"
For a moment, there was a sound of joyful surprise on the entire city. Zhen Yao looked at the big flag and was extremely happy. He hurriedly called an officer and soldier again and ordered him, "Go and tell me quickly. Brother Zhen Yan, let him prepare food and wine to reward General Xiang."
Xiang Kunlun's army arrived at the city gate and saw that the city gate was wide open. Zhen Yao and several centurions were already waiting at the city gate.
As soon as he saw Xiang Kunlun, Zhen Yao hurriedly led several centurions to greet him, "Congratulations to General Xiang on his return from victory. Zhen has asked his brother to prepare food and wine to express condolences to the three armies, and also invites General Xiang to enter the city immediately."
Looking at Zhen Yao who was overjoyed, Xiang Kunlun nodded, and then led Gao Shun and Zhou Cang into the city, and entered the Zhongshan Kingdom again amid the cheers of the people.
Accompanied by Zhen Yao, Xiang Kunlun came to the door of Zhen's Mansion again and walked in with ease. Zhen Yao accompanied Xiang Kunlun respectfully. This time Gao Shun and Zhou Cang also followed Xiang Kunlun to Zhen's Mansion.
As soon as he entered the Zhen Mansion, Zhen Yan came up to him, "Congratulations to General Xiang on his return from the victory! Zhen Yan thanked General Xiang for saving my Zhen family twice!"
After saying that, Zhen Yan knelt down. Xiang Kunlun quickly supported Zhen Yan and said, "Brother Zhen, there is no need to be polite. If you hadn't sent someone to inform him this time, Xiang might have been plotted by Liu Bei."
Hearing this, Zhen Yan was relieved. He thought Xiang Kunlun had not received the message from the people sent by his brother.
"General Xiang, let's not talk about that for now. Zhen has already prepared wine and food inside. Generals, please come inside!"
Zhen Yan said, stepped aside, and made an invitation gesture behind him. Xiang Kunlun nodded, and walked in with Gao Shun and Zhou Cang.
After watching the three people walk in, Zhen Yao also followed, but was stopped by his brother, "Second brother, I want to discuss something with you."
"Brother, please tell me, what's the matter?"
Zhen Yao looked at his brother with some curiosity and couldn't help but ask. His brother was usually very cautious, but he didn't know why he was so anxious today.
"Listen to my brother, it's not just Third Sister's petty thoughts..."
Zhen Yan whispered into Zhen Yao's ear with a look of helplessness. Zhen Yao couldn't help but feel a hint of joy on his face as he listened.
…
Xiang Kunlun was brought to the left-hand position by the maid, while Gao Shun and Zhou Cang were placed in Xiang Kunlun's starting positions. After Xiang Kunlun and the other three were seated, the Zhen brothers arrived belatedly.
"I'm sorry, General Xiang, for keeping you waiting. My two brothers are delayed by something."
Zhen Yan bowed to Xiang Kunlun in embarrassment. Xiang Kunlun waved his hand carelessly and said, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Brother Zhen has something to do. Xiang will lead his troops back after dinner." Went to Zhongling."
"Brother Xiang, are you in such a hurry to go back? But something important happened?"
After Zhen Yan took his seat, he asked Xiang Kunlun his question. Xiang Kunlun shook his head and said slowly, "No, it's just that I have led the troops out for so long. It's time to go back."
"Hey, that's right. Brother Xiang has solved two crises for our Zhongshan Kingdom. It's time to go back. Come here, serve the food!"
Zhen Yan didn't say anything more. He just ordered his servants to serve the food and drinks, and he and Zhen Yao accompanied the Kunlun trio to drink.
Halfway through the meal, Zhen Jiang, who was wearing a dance costume, walked in slowly and bowed to Xiang Kunlun.
"The little girl has met General Xiang. The dinner was boring. I asked General Xiang to allow the little girl to dance with him to cheer up the general."
Before Xiang Kunlun could refuse, several maids holding musical instruments walked out from behind Zhen Jiang, sat down and bowed to Xiang Kunlun and others.
Seeing this, Xiang Kunlun said nothing more and could only sit up straight and look at Zhen Jiang.
