Among the major princes, Zhang Xiu received a heavy gift from Lu Bu, followed the advice of the strategist Jia Xu, decided to form an alliance with Lu Bu, and led a group of men and horses out of Fancheng to take Xu Capital. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

Yuan Yao also got the news that Lu Bu was attacked by Cao Cao, but now he is difficult to become a climate, and self-protection is still insufficient, not to mention helping others? But he always has to pretend, he only has one sentence to the messenger sent by Lu Bu, if he wants him to send troops, he must first send Lu Bu's daughter, but as Chen Gong said, Lu Bu has no daughter at all, where is there a way to send his daughter to marry? Not to mention that even if Lu Bu really has a daughter, Lu Bu will agree?

Yuan Shao, like Liu Biao, planned to wait and see for a while, and it was precisely this purpose that he sent Yuan Shang to Yangzhou.

Needless to say, Cao Cao has not yet fought with Lu Bu, but he was first targeted by four or five princes, which means that he is in danger of winning.

As for the remaining princes, they are beyond the reach of the whip, and they can only watch the excitement.

What will be the outcome of the battle of Xuzhou, which is about to break out, whether Cao Cao will destroy Lu Bu, or Lu Bu will destroy Cao Cao, or will both lose, so that the other princes and fishermen will benefit? Everyone is waiting and seeing!

In the spring of the third year of Jian'an, Liu Bei sent Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to attack and kill Lü Bu from Yuan Yao's place to recruit Yang Fenghan Xian, the second general, and recruited troops and horses in Xiaopei, which was feared by Lü Bu, so he raised 5,000 troops, led by Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, and surrounded Xiaopei to attack. Because Zhang Fei and Guan Yu did not return from the expedition to Langyi, Xiaopeicheng had no available generals, Liu Bei had no choice but to close the door without a fight, so Sun Qian quickly went to Xu Du to ask for help from Cao Cao.

Gao Shun consulted with Zhang Liao and understood that once Cao Cao's reinforcements arrived, it would be difficult for him to retreat completely, so the only way to attack Xiao Pei was to attack him.

In Xiaopei City, everyone is in danger, Liu Beirong is pretending, his brows are furrowed, Mi Zhu saw Liu Bei's anxious appearance on the side, forced a smile and persuaded him: "Don't worry, Gongyou has been gone for three days, Xu Du is not far from here, Cao Cao knows that Xiaopei's gains and losses are very good for him, and he must have sent troops on the road at this moment!"

Liu Bei's face was gloomy: "Zizhong only knows one and doesn't know the other, Cao Cao knows that this is powerful, how can Lu Bu not know? Even if Lu Bu doesn't know, how can Chen Gong not know?

"How can the lord grow the ambition of others and destroy his own prestige?" It was Jian Yong who spoke, and he walked in from outside, carrying a pot of wine in his hand.

"Xianhe, at this time, you can still drink, I'm so worried that I can't sleep!" Liu Bei saw Jian Yong, a faint smile barely appeared on his face, and he soon fell into deep sorrow again.

Jian Yong put the wine on the ground and said with a hearty smile: "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, why should the lord think so much? Eat when you should eat, drink when you should drink, fight when you should fight, and die when you should die, people don't live to be afraid of wolves and tigers, but to ask themselves at the moment of death if you have no regrets in this life and no shame in this life, isn't it?"

Liu Bei was touched by Jian Yong's words, he patted Jian Yong's shoulder, picked up the wine jar from the ground, and laughed: "Yes, I shouldn't be confused, no matter when, I should be firm in my beliefs!"

"This is our good lord!" Jian Yong took the wine jar from Liu Bei's hand, raised his head and drank a few sips, and handed it to Liu Bei, Liu Bei also drank a few sips, shouted quickly, and walked outside.

Mi Zhu looked at the immodest Jian Yong speechlessly: "Xianhe's words should be said to the two generals of Guan Zhang, the lord is the commander, do you want him to go out of the city and charge into battle?"

Jian Yong laughed, and then suddenly suppressed his smile and showed a serious expression: "Although I am a salivating person on weekdays, you shouldn't know what kind of person Zizhong is in my bones, Guan Zhang and the two generals are out on the march, even if they get the news, they can't come back, except for Brother Ling and General Xiahou Bo, are there any available people in the city? Now we are just taking advantage of the geographical advantage of defending the city, without this advantage, you and I both understand that we are not the opponent of Lu Bu's army at all! Is Cao Cao really treating the lord like a brother? That Xu Du is so close to Xiao Pei, and he should have arrived in three days after a rapid march, why is it that there has been no news for half a month now?"

Mi Zhu said in a deep voice: "There is only one reason, Cao Cao is just using the lord to fight against Lu Bu, and he is also using Lu Bu's hand to eradicate the lord!"

Jian Yong continued to drink and staggered outside: "Cao Cao didn't treat the lord as a brother, and Lu Bu wouldn't treat the lord as a brother, the lord's life is really too bitter, too bitter!"

Mi Zhu said leisurely in the back: "Since you understand everything, why do you want to be like this on weekdays? Is it just for the lord to raise idlers?"

Jian Yong turned around, looked at Mi Zhu and said, "You are wrong, many years later, you will know how important I, Jian Yong and Jian Xianhe, are to the lord!"

Liu Bei climbed the city tower and looked at the dense enemy troops under the city, but laughed infinitely with pride: "Xianhe is right, left and right are only one death, and it is better to do than to do nothing!"

"What a guts!" Suddenly, a voice sounded behind Liu Bei.

"Who?" Liu Bei was startled, turned around to look, and saw an old man with immortal wind bones standing behind him, dressed in a flowing white robe, detached like an immortal.

"Below is a wisp of knowledge that has been attracted here because of Your Excellency's pride!" the old man said proudly, staring intently at Liu Bei, who was a little wary of him.

"Remnant knowledge?" Liu Bei chewed these two words, only to find that the place where he was very different from before, although it was still on the city wall of Xiao Pei, but everything seemed to be still, the soldiers on the city wall and the enemy troops under the city wall suddenly froze their bodies, the trees in the distance, the clouds in the sky and even the soft sunlight, all suddenly interrupted, forever at this moment!

"Demon Dao, what kind of place is this, why did you bring me here?" Liu Bei pulled out his sword and stabbed at the old man in front of him, only to find that his sword pierced his body out of thin air, as if it had pierced into the air, and the old man didn't even frown.

"Demon Dao, does Liu Xuande also think so about the poor Dao?" the old man shook his head and sighed.

Liu Bei was very excited, he withdrew his double swords, stared at the old man with an unhappy face, and said: "You must be a demon invited by Cao Cao, and you want to take my life, uh, wrong, why should I say Cao Cao, my current enemy is Lu Bu!"

"Sure enough, does Your Excellency also think that Cao Cao is an enemy?" the old man asked with a smile, "Then why did Your Excellency still ally with him and plot to kill Lu Bu?"

Liu Bei hated and said: "Lu Bu is capricious, and he will kill the king at any time for personal gain, which is despised by the people of the world! He is against the imperial court, that is, against the Han family, and I, Liu Xuande, am the emperor of the Han family, and it is my duty to defend the Han family, and I vow to stand against such a small family!"

"Is that so, then why did Your Excellency marry Lu Bu when he came to defect?" the old man continued to ask with a smile.

"It's just an expedient measure, why bother asking?" Liu Bei put the sword on his neck and said in a cold voice, "No matter who Your Excellency is, I don't have time to waste time with Your Excellency here, so I will not accompany you!"

After that, Liu Bei wiped his neck with his backhand, and the illusion in front of him disappeared, and only one sentence echoed in his ears: "It's not simple, Your Excellency actually knows how to get out of the illusion of the poor road......

"Lord, lord, lord, wake up!" Mi Fang's voice sounded in Liu Bei's ears, he opened his eyes, and saw a large group of people gathered around, only then did he see that he was in his room, and the two ladies of Mi and Gan beside him cried so much that they were crying, and Mi Fang and Mi Zhu were standing in front of the bed, their eyes full of concern.

Liu Bei sat up with his forehead and muttered, "What's wrong with me?"

Mi Fang said: "Don't you remember, the lord just climbed the city wall, and the enemy army flew with an arrow and shot the lord, and then the lord fell unconscious, and it has been three days and three nights!"

"I don't remember, I just remember having a strange dream!" Liu Bei moved, only to notice that his left shoulder was a little painful, and when he glanced at it, it had been bandaged with gold sore medicine, he waved his hand to let the kneeling people in the room get up and exit the room, and then asked Mi Fang with some unhappiness, "It's been three days, what is the situation of the enemy army? Why are you here? If the enemy army breaks through the city gate, can you bear the responsibility?"

Mi Fangnuo retreated, and Mi Zhu supported Liu Bei and persuaded: " Don't worry, it's strange to say, since the lord was hit by an arrow wound and fell unconscious, there was a sudden strong wind outside the city, and then it rained heavily, because Xiaopei City was in a high place, and the enemy camp outside the city was built in a low place, and a lot of grain, grass and ordnance were damaged for a while, and the enemy soldiers and horses were also killed and wounded, so the siege was suspended, and they were all guarded at the dangerous road, I am afraid that on the one hand, they were waiting for the reinforcements of Xuzhou Lu Bu, and on the other hand, they also prevented the reinforcements of Lord Cao Cao and the two generals of Guan Zhang from coming, this is the strategy of planning to encircle the point to send reinforcements, and its heart is really sinister!"

"Click" A rolling thunder sounded, Liu Bei looked out the window, and sure enough, the torrential rain was like a note, constantly washing the green tiles under the eaves.

"Could it be the spell cast by that Dao Master?" Liu Bei got up, thinking of the old Dao Master in the illusion just now, and couldn't help but secretly mutter.

"What did you say, my lord?" Mi Zhu asked from the side.

"It's nothing, such a heavy rain, can stop the enemy for a while, and it is not a long-term solution, and Zhang Liao is a figure who is good at surprise attacks in Lu Bu's army, the last time Xiao Pei was lost, it was because of the strange soldiers he arranged outside the city that I was forced to surrender to Lu Bu without 10,000 horses, although he and Gao Shun only brought 5,000 men and horses this time, but they should not be underestimated!"

Mi Zhu bowed his head and obeyed the order: "Promise, subordinates must remember!"

Before he could say anything, the doorman hurriedly came to report: "Lord Qiqi, Lord Sun Qian is back!"

Liu Bei was overjoyed: "Bring him to see me!"
