Chapter 114 Kou Feng
Gan Ning looked at Cao Ren who was struggling to break free but couldn't do anything, thinking that this is a big fish, if he hadn't committed the taboo of underestimating the enemy, how could he have been caught alive.
If Cao Ren and Li Dian guarded Fancheng honestly, even if Zhang Wu dispatched all the troops available in Jingzhou, he might not be able to take down Fancheng. Even if Cao Ren left Li Dian to defend the city with five thousand soldiers, this Fancheng It wouldn't fall into Zhang Wu's hands so easily.
Gan Ning happily said to Wenpin: "Zhongye, there is another Li Dian outside the city, I guess he is hiding outside the city waiting to confirm Cao Ren's news, I will trouble you to go out of the city and defeat him if you have the chance. If he has already escaped, you go to meet the governor."
"The last general takes orders." Wenpin led the troops away.Wenpin used to have a much higher status in Jingzhou than Gan Ning, but now Gan Ning is the right governor of the Metropolitan Government and also the prefect of Jiangxia, and Zhang Wu's sworn brother. He is second only to Zhang Wu in the Jingzhou military.
Sure enough, Li Dian did not run away immediately. He knew that Cao Ren would not be rescued, but he wanted to ascertain whether Cao Ren was killed or captured alive.Cao Ren, as the leader of an army, was killed or captured alive by the enemy. He, the deputy general, was also responsible. If Cao Ren fled back to Xuchang, I'm afraid Cao Cao would blame him!
Seeing that the gate of Fancheng was wide open, and a group of men and horses galloped out under the leadership of a general, Li Dian knew that if he did not leave, he would not be able to leave. There were less than 2000 people on his side, and they were all exhausted. It's too late to run away!
Therefore, Li Dian left a few people disguised as ordinary people to inquire about the news, and led the rest to retreat quickly.
Wenpin searched around and found the place where Li Dian had been hiding, but he probably had fled far away, so he followed Gan Ning's instructions to meet the governor Zhang Wu.
When Zhang Wu, Huang Zhong, and Wei Yan followed Cao Ren's escape trail to the vicinity of Fancheng, they met Wen Pin who came to meet him. Hearing that Cao Ren had been arrested and Li Dian had escaped, he was both happy and a little bit sorry.I am happy that a general like Cao Ren, who is also Cao Cao's younger brother, can be captured alive, but it is a pity that Li Dian is allowed to escape. Li Dian is both wise and brave, and his ability is by no means inferior to any of the "five good generals".
If you run away, run away, anyway, even if you catch Li Dian, he will not surrender. Of course, Cao Ren is even more unlikely to surrender. His greatest role to Zhang Wu is that he can be used to exchange treasures with Cao Cao!Just like capturing Jiangdong veteran Han Dang back then, Cao Cao was the one who was blackmailed this time!Boss Cao has the most treasures. Unlike Sun Quan, a poor man who only ran two dungeons before he won't be a hit. Cao Cao's dungeon is worth brushing hard for a long time!
Zhang Wu led his army into the city, and Liu Mi, the county magistrate, came out to meet him.This Liu Mi is from Changsha. Like Liu Bei, he is also a relative of the Han family. Although this person is not well-known, he has a nephew who is very famous in the Three Kingdoms. That is Liu Bei's adopted son Liu Feng in the original book.
Kou Feng can be regarded as a talent, with some military talent, and his martial arts is not bad. He can be regarded as a second-rate general with some strength, but he is at the bottom of the second-rate generals, probably like Liao Hua.But Kou Feng is still young at this time, less than 20 years old. If he is well trained, there is still room for improvement.
So Zhang Wu asked: "Who is the young man behind County Magistrate Liu?"
Liu Mi returned and said: "Back to the Governor, this is my nephew Kou Feng, who was originally the son of the Luohou Kou family. Because his parents died early, he has been attached to this place since he was a child. Feng'er, hurry up and pay a visit to the Governor."
Kou Feng was at the age where he worshiped heroes. He had long heard about the deeds of Zhang Wu, the governor of Jingzhou, who had risen to power in Jingzhou in the past two years. At this time, he defeated Cao Ren and Li Dian, so he excitedly saluted: "Feng meets the governor! "
"Okay, sure enough, the weapon is magnificent, as expected of Luo Hou, can you practice martial arts?" Zhang Wu asked.This Luo Hou is not simple. Luo refers to Changsha Luo County, so this Luo Hou is a county marquis. There are only two ways to become a Marquis in the Eastern Han Dynasty. One way is military merit, and the other way is foreign relatives.
Liu Mi is a clan member of the Han family, so Kou Feng's mother must also be the daughter of the clan, and Kou Feng's father is most likely because of his foreign relatives, which shows that Liu Mi's blood relationship with the royal family is very close.
"Back to the governor, I have practiced some martial arts."
Zhang Wu said to Liu Mi: "Magistrate Liu, I want to recruit my nephew as a general. I don't know what you want?" Zhang Wu is currently short of people, especially generals. Cao Jun's large-scale offensive must also prevent Jiangdong Sun Quan from stabbing him in the back. Everywhere needs people.
Although Kou Feng's military strength is not first-rate, nor is his resourcefulness outstanding, but he comes from a family and has a certain foundation. Although he can't be alone, he can still be competent as a lieutenant after others.
And although Kou Feng has a strong personality and doesn't get along well with his colleagues, his loyalty is still guaranteed.According to the original work, after Guan Yu's defeat, his partner Meng Da rebelled and surrendered to Wei, and also persuaded Kou Feng to surrender. Kou Feng would rather return to Chengdu and face unpredictable results than surrender, which shows that he still cares about the relationship between Liu Bei and Liu Bei. of.
Liu Mi was a clan member of the Han family, so he was somewhat dissatisfied with Cao Cao's oppression of the emperor and his control of the government. When Cao Ren occupied Fancheng, he never wanted Kou Feng to join Cao Cao.But he couldn't agree with Zhang Wu, because Zhang Wu came from a bad background after all. Although he controls the power of Jingzhou now, Jingzhou Mu is Liu Qi, who is also a Han family clan.
So this time Liu Mi did not take refuge in Zhang Wu like in the original book where Kou Feng was very happy to make Liu Bei his adoptive father, but asked Kou Feng what he meant.
Of course Kou Feng is willing, his parents died early, his family has also fallen, and now it is troubled times, his identity is no longer easy to use, even his uncle is only a county magistrate, so he really wants to make contributions and re-establish Shake the door.In addition, he was originally from Jingzhou, and his hometown is still in Changsha, so he expressed his willingness to follow Zhang Wu on the spot.
Zhang Wu appointed Liu Feng as the school lieutenant on the spot, and he could lead five hundred soldiers to train in Huang Zhong's army first.
Zhang Wu said to Liu Mi again: "Magistrate Liu, now that Fancheng has returned to Jingzhou, and Cao Ren has been captured by me, then Cao Cao will definitely not let it go, and will definitely lead the army to take revenge. Fancheng is the gateway to Xiangyang, and it is about to face a big war. I am also about to station troops here, and I want to let Liu County Magistrate go to Changsha County to serve as the county magistrate, what do you think?"
Liu Mi was overjoyed, it must be extremely dangerous to stay in Fancheng, if Zhang Wu was defeated by Cao Cao again, his life would be in danger.He was originally from Changsha, and now he can return to his hometown to become an official and avoid the war, so of course he readily agrees.
So, Liu Mi packed his luggage and took his family to Changsha to take up his post. Before leaving, he told Kou Feng to work hard. He waited for the good news of Kou Feng's achievements in his hometown.
Kou Feng temporarily belonged to Huang Zhong's subordinates as a school lieutenant, and Zhang Wu also told Huang Zhong to train Kou Feng well and focus on cultivating him in secret, so he might grow up in the future.
