Chapter 19 [Catching Insects]
Behind the secretary of Wuyi, there are whispers to borrow the king's pawn
*
In the midst of the loud cheers, everyone looked at the banquet in fear. But when he saw the black-faced man beside Liu Bei drinking violently, he had already smashed the board in front of him with a knife, and the dishes were dripping and rolling down.
Qi Han stretched out his fingers and plucked his ears.
Tsk, this voice, it's a pity not to practice the lion's roar in Buddhism. Just shouting loudly made people's ears tingle, no wonder it is said that Xiahou Jie was yelled to death by him in Dangyang.
After thinking about it, he squinted his eyes at Zhang Fei disapprenously, and a sneer appeared on his lips.
Act, continue to play your reckless man. What a good actor.
If it was really a rude and reckless man, how could he find out that I made eye contact with Tian Fan? There were quite a few people in the tent, but Zhang Fei could be so careful and have insight into the secrets, not to mention ordinary people, even ordinary strategists were also compared!
Seeing his eyes like this, Zhang Fei became more and more irritable, and rushed with a knife in his eyes: "I will take your life today!"
Qi Han took two steps back, raised his hand and put it on the scabbard at his waist, but did not move.
Ignoring Zhang Fei's clamor of a fierce bully, his gaze glanced awe-inspiring and shot at Liu Bei beside the black man. Sure enough, the other party was also looking at himself.
He had been avoiding Liu Bei's sight before, but it was because he had concerns about Zhao Yun in his heart;
Looking at the young man's clear and calm eyes, a slight surprise flashed in Liu Bei's eyes. The eyes of the two met for only a moment, and he had already reached out to grab Zhang Fei.
A playful smile immediately flashed in Qi Han's eyes.
Sure enough, Liu Bei still has some ability to recognize people.
But seeing Liu Bei's reproachful face: "Third brother, don't be reckless and hurt Qi Sima! "If the words are not right, it is not too late to kill.
The latter sentence is not said. Liu Bei smiled mildly on his face, looking at Qi Han's gaze with some exploration and thought. In Qi Han's opinion, that gentle smile was like a snake and scorpion.
This young man is completely different from Fang Cai's fear of himself, judging as if they were two people...... Liu Bei frowned slightly. The eyes that seemed to be staring at Qi Han actually fell more on the other person next to him.
Following Liu Bei's eyes, Qi Han's jade-like pupils lit up-
I don't know when, Zhao Yun has stood silently beside him.
Qi Han's heart shook slightly, and he suddenly remembered his previous words with a deep meaning - he said, "You can do whatever you want tonight."
It turned out that this was what it meant.
Tonight, no matter what he wants to do or do, no matter how many doubts Zhao Yun still has in his heart, and no matter whether Qi Han's actions will hurt Liu Bei's face and interests...... Zhao Yun said that simple sentence, which had already shown his greatest support.
Just a sentence, the clouds were light and the wind was light, and he had not promised protection, which had already made Qi Han's heart palpitate with a warmth that he had never felt before.
This kind of warmth and appropriateness had never been experienced in the stable and safe world in the past. He has always lived under the brilliance of the eye, and his every move has been paid attention to, and there are very few friends, and very few people can approach his life and give him this shock and touch. Even if it's a girlfriend who is about to get married, it's just a match. Like all the choices in his life, he had already made a plan.
After living these two lives, only Zhao Yun, a simple sentence, when he really understood the hidden meaning, it turned out to be the protection and commitment regardless of life and death, and his heart suddenly set off a storm that he had never seen before.
This feeling of suddenly clenching his throat and choking and unable to make a sound, and his eyes were inexplicably swollen, Qi Han was not familiar with it at all.
He knew very well that his tremors and emotions at this time were all from the person who was silently guarding him.
Only he, with such a real attitude, broke his existing understanding of interpersonal relationships, and moved him with this kind of unscrupulous protection and sincerity.
At this moment, Zhao Yun was like a tree, standing quietly beside Qi Han, without saying a word, but he had suppressed the murderous aura on the opposite side.
It seems that Liu Bei stopped Zhang Fei, and he also had his share of credit. Qi Han forcibly suppressed the complicated feelings in his heart, and the corners of his lips pursed a trace of arc to look at the other side.
Liu Bei glanced at Zhao Yun quietly, and saw that his right hand was holding the scabbard of the sword, and the knuckles were red and white, which showed that the strength had been heavily filled with palms. In the blink of an eye, this person was able to pull out his sword and open up a world for Qi Han in front of him.
Liu Bei's smile became gentler.
"Why did my eldest brother stop me? This man is so arrogant. Zhang Fei muttered a few times and silently withdrew his waist knife, but his face was still puffed up.
Yan Ji hurriedly interrupted: "What Sima Qi said is extremely true, you supervise military affairs, and the matter of borrowing troops should be discussed with you, so please call the shots." ”
Knowing that the other party pushed the knife on his neck to himself, Qi Han remained silent, only put his hand on his chin on the tip of his nose, coughed and said loudly: "The danger of Xuzhou must not be understood, my lord has the heart to help Xuande Gong, Beixincheng does not dare to slack off, and must send troops to help the prince to clear the villain and recapture the city." ”
When Guan Zhang and the others heard this, their faces were slightly pale. Only Liu Bei frowned secretly. He knew that the more eloquent the other party said at the moment, he was afraid that the more difficult it would be to deal with the next move.
Sure enough, Qi Han gave a proviso in the next sentence: "But the North New City is in decline, and the vitality of the Great War has just been damaged, and the remaining soldiers in the city are only more than 6,000 wounded." Although he temporarily retired from Wuhuan in this battle, Yuan Shao's heart to seize the city must be stronger, and he will do it again in the near future. If all the troops in the city are lent to the envoy, then the army will be under the city, how will Beixincheng resist it?" Without waiting for Liu Bei and the three of them to change color, Qi Handu shook his head and sighed again, "This is exactly where we are embarrassed. If we do not lend troops to the envoy, then our lord will bear the reputation of injustice, and our generation will become a villain who betrays the lord; if we borrow troops and envoys, then the emptiness of Beixincheng will fall into the hands of Yuan Shao, and then we will lose the city and destroy the lord's great responsibility. ”
When Liu Bei heard this, he always maintained the same smile on his face, but the smile didn't reach the bottom of his eyes at all.
"This and that, grinding and chirping. Surnamed Qi, Xiao'er, why don't you say what you want!" Zhang Fei was irritable and roared again.
Yan Ji's face was not very good, isn't this exactly what he is worried about now? If he lends troops to Liu Bei, he will naturally not be able to please good fruits to eat when he loses Beixincheng; but if he does not agree to lend him troops today, he is afraid that he will immediately be splattered with blood on the spot, and he will not be able to please him.
Thinking about it, he slapped his thigh in frustration, and asked Qi Han worriedly: "Qi Sima, you have always been resourceful, there must be a solution, please say it quickly!"
When Liu Bei heard this, his mask-like face finally changed slightly, and his eyes looking at Qi Han narrowed slightly, and cold light burst out.
What he thought in his heart was the same as Yan Ji: "This son dares to come forward, and he is so calm, he must have already calculated." ”
Seeing that Qi Han said yes to Yan Ji, he smiled slightly: "The soldiers in the city can't act rashly, but right now Qi Han has an expedient plan." In this battle, our side captured more than 5,000 Wuhuan soldiers, all of whom were fierce and brave, and they could be used as ten, and now Qi Han will be the master to lend these 5,000 men and horses to the envoy! In addition, there are 1,000 people in the city who want to join the army to serve, and these 1,000 people are also lent to Xuande Gong. ”
When Guan Yu heard this, he suddenly stood up, Dan Feng's eyes stared at the young man in front of him who was talking and laughing freely, his lips moved as if he wanted to refute, but he was silent again.
Zhang Fei couldn't hold it anymore, and was about to shout angrily when he raised his knife, but was stopped by Liu Bei raising his hand: "Qi Sima's words are wrong. Wuhuan is a foreigner, how can I drive him? The words were cold and hard, not a request but a command.
Qi Han didn't hear about his toughness, but just smiled: "If these 5,000 men and horses are willing to surrender, how can they not be driven away? It is a fact that the danger of Beixincheng is not coming, and it is also a fact that these five thousand horsemen have surrendered to us. Qi Han's plan is not only to make a conspirator, but also has a little selfishness. Imagine, this group of soldiers is placed in our place, when Wuhuan attacks again, the troops will see that their people are attacking and will inevitably scatter the morale of the army, not to mention that the enemy is afraid that there will be mutiny and chaos, they can be regarded as useless to Beixincheng; How smart you are, you will be able to perceive Qi Han's good intentions!"
Tian Fan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly called "good" to help the case, and said loudly: "Liu Yuanjun, Qi Sima's strategy is very clever, in this way, it can not only ensure that my Beixin City will not be destroyed, but also help you recover the lost land, so why not do it?"
Liu Bei frowned, and was speechless for a while.
Qi Han was right, and he didn't even have room to refute. In particular, he admitted that he had some selfish intentions for Beixincheng, which made people feel that his words were true and credible. 5,000 miscellaneous cavalry and 1,000 recruits, the weight of which is already equal to the existing strength of Beixincheng. What is your position against it?
He didn't know that the Wuhuan soldiers could not resist the enemies of the same clan (most of the Wuhuan men and horses in Yuan Shao's coalition army came to attack Beixincheng), and one more day in Beixincheng was just an extra waste of food, if it wasn't for the persuasion of everyone, Yan Ji would have slaughtered it a long time ago, and the 1,000 so-called "recruits" were actually refugees whose houses were burned down in the Battle of Nancheng, and their resettlement had long been a problem and had become starving. Selling these hot potatoes to Liu Bei for personal favors not only did not hurt at all, but greatly reduced the burden.
Of course, Liu Bei didn't know about these situations, but everyone in Beixincheng knew it. They all hung their heads, slyly smirks sliding across their eyes.
Liu Bei felt that the atmosphere in the tent was different, and he deeply doubted that he had been tricked somewhere. But he couldn't think of a reason, and he couldn't think of anything harmful to himself. Therefore, although he was extremely unhappy in his heart, he still pretended to be full of tears, and soon returned to his previous state. He walked to Qi Han, Yan Ji and others, and was about to bow down, but Yan Ji quickly got up and supported him.
