Meanwhile, on the way to Jiangxia.
Along the way, Wei Yan stayed with Pang Tong, and the two of them had a good conversation.
Because both of them liked to use surprise tactics to attack their opponents when they were unprepared.
Wei Yan had always held Pang Tong in high esteem.
In his opinion, Pang Tong's strategy was much better than Zhuge Liang's.
And Pang Tong also had a whole new level of respect for Wei Yan.
He didn't expect that this young general really had the qualities of a general.
His ideas and strategies were not comparable to those of ordinary generals.
"In my opinion, Military Counselor Pang's ability is much better than Zhuge Liang's."
"Zhuge Liang only knows how to be overcautious. How can he win a battle like that?"
"Unlike Military Counselor Pang, he not only keeps his words, but also gets a miraculous effect every time. In comparison, Zhuge Liang should go back to Longzhong and be an idle man in the mountains."
Wei Yan laughed heartily and praised Pang Tong without holding back.
Pang Tong immediately said seriously.
"Don't talk nonsense. Kongming's strategy is not inferior to mine. It's just that the two of us focus on different directions."
"Don't say that again."
Although he said so, who didn't want to be praised?
Pang Tong was no exception.
In fact, this time, Pang Tong was very clear that it would be easier to attack Cao Ren.
But Pang Tong did the opposite. He wanted to establish his prestige and let Zhuge Liang know that a real counselor was able to handle a butcher's cleaver with ease no matter the situation, no matter what decision he made.
Originally, Pang Tong had a good relationship with Zhuge Liang.
However, Zhuge Liang had unintentionally said something that erased Pang Tong's merit.
If it was in the past, Pang Tong wouldn't care at all.
But now, Pang Tong was different. His heart was filled with hatred, and as a result, he also hated Zhuge Liang.
By choosing to attack Jiangxia, Pang Tong wanted to prove that he was stronger than Zhuge Liang.
Moreover, there were two other reasons for attacking Jiangxia and Jiangling.
One of them was Zhang Fei, Zhang Yide, who had followed him to the battlefield and ended up being captured.
Another thing was that Pang Tong couldn't wait to find Bai Feng for revenge.
In fact, Pang Tong had barely escaped death at the beginning. He did not need to return to Liu Bei's place.
But if he wanted revenge, he needed soldiers.
In the beginning, Pang Tong had not planned to return to Liu Bei. However, when he heard that Jiangdong's Governor had died and that they were retreating in defeat, he concluded that Jiangdong's fate had come to an end.
From the looks of it, Liu Bei was the only one who could help him take revenge.
The next day.
In order to prevent any accidents, Liu Bei's Army moved quickly.
In just one day, they had arrived at Jiangxia from Xiangyang.
On the city wall of Jiangxia, Li Cunxiao and Zhang He led the soldiers and stood quietly on the city wall.
Looking at the black mass of soldiers not far away, Zhang He felt a little numb on his face.
How were these soldiers?
They were simply here to take his life!
"Speaking of which, who is the enemy general? Why have I never seen him before? "
Li Cunxiao looked ahead and couldn't help but ask in confusion.
Although Li Cunxiao didn't have much contact with Liu Bei Army, he often followed Bai Feng and naturally knew some things.
However, he had never heard of this general called Wei Yan.
Zhang He also shook his head.
"Although I often fought with Liu Bei Army, I have never heard of this general."
"However, this time, the vanguard general is Guan Ping. Guan Ping is Guan Yu's son."
"I'm afraid that he is a new general recruited by Liu Bei. He is quite skilled in both civil and military affairs. Otherwise, he wouldn't be sitting on Guan Ping's head."
At this moment, Guan Ping's army, as the vanguard, arrived at the city wall of Jiangxia.
Guan Ping pointed his broadsword at the city wall and began to challenge the vanguard.
"Sir, I will go down."
"If we don't fight the vanguard, it will affect the morale of the vanguard."
Zhang He asked in a low voice.
Li Cunxiao nodded and acquiesced.
Hearing this, Zhang He immediately picked up his weapon, went down the city wall, mounted his horse, and came in front of Guan Ping.
Guan Ping took a closer look and recognized Zhang He.
Although Zhang He wasn't famous in the Cao Army, he was famous in Liu Bei Army.
After all, Liu Bei Army had suffered many defeats under Zhang He's hands.
"Hey, you bastard. Watch me behead you!"
Guan Ping roared. With a flip of his palm, he raised his broadsword and charged at Zhang He.
If he defeated Zhang He, then his reputation would definitely soar!
Guan Ping had always been under the shadow of his father. Everyone was extremely respectful when talking about him.
However, Guan Ping couldn't stand it.
He wanted to use his strength to prove himself and bring glory to his father.
Zhang He, who was in front of him, was a good target.
If he killed him, he would become famous!
However, how could Zhang He be so easy to deal with?
Seeing Guan Ping come out to fight, he immediately raised his hand and used his spear to block Guan Ping's broadsword.
The two of them fought fiercely.
In a short while, they had fought more than fifty rounds.
However, it was obvious that Guan Ping was at a disadvantage.
After all, Guan Ping had not experienced many battles. He was relying on Guan Yu's teachings.
On the other hand, Zhang He was much more experienced than Guan Ping.
Soon, Guan Ping was unable to hold on and retreated a few steps.
How could Zhang He let go of this opportunity? He turned his spear and stabbed at Guan Ping's heart.
Although Guan Ping was a little absent-minded, he still dodged subconsciously, barely avoiding the attack.
However, he lost his balance and fell off his horse.
Zhang He would not let go of this opportunity. He retracted his spear and stabbed at Guan Ping.
Guan Ping, who had fallen off his horse, did not have the strength to fight against Zhang He. The spear was about to pierce through his body.
Clang!
At this moment, the sound of weapons clashing against each other could be heard.
Guan Ping took a closer look and saw that it was Wei Yan!
Wei Yan held a broadsword in his hand. He raised his hand and forced Zhang He to take a few steps back.
"What brute strength!"
Zhang He was shocked and gave up on killing Guan Ping.
This young general in front of him was actually so powerful!
Guan Ping looked at Wei Yan and suddenly had a whole new level of respect for him.
Who would have thought that such a nameless person would actually have such martial strength!
Zhang He was after all a general who focused on strategy. In terms of strength, he could not compare to generals like Zhang Liao and Xu Huang, let alone generals like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
Not only did Wei Yan have brute strength, the broadsword in his hand was also superb.
However, he did not chase after Guan Ping.
If he was not careful, it was very likely that he would lose Guan Ping.
Guan Ping was Guan Yu's son. Wei Yan did not want to offend Guan Yu because of this.
There was no doubt that Zhang He had won this battle.
In an instant, the morale of the Cao Army rose.
Li Cunxiao also nodded slightly and looked at Wei Yan with narrowed eyes.
This young general seemed to have exceeded his expectations.
