"Ziyuan... Let's go down! ”

"You and my brothers join forces, and we will definitely be able to help the imperial uncle Kuang support the Han family, and return the world to a prosperous world."

In the cell, Zhao Yun was silent for a moment, with a certain extravagant hope in his eyes.

"Zilong! Kuang Fu Han Room... Whose Han family is Kuang supporting, is it the canary locked up in the palace of Xudu, or does it refer to Liu Xuande? ”

A hint of ridicule crossed the corner of his mouth, not aimed at Zhao Yun, but Liu Xie and Liu Bei.

"Zilong, the Han is rotten in his bones, the Han clan relatives in this world... How many people have really thought about Kuang Fu Han Room?

Kuang Fu Han family, in the final analysis, is just the reason for them to gather fame and compete for power. In addition to the glamorous camouflage of the Han family... There is no difference in essence with the princes of this world..."

In the face of Xia Houlan's rebuttal, the look in Zhao Yun's eyes sank lightly, and he fell silent again.

Is what Xia Houlan said wrong?

That's right! In fact, after so many years of observation, he can more or less discover... The master in his heart does not have the intention of helping the Son of Heaven, and as for Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, they don't put Liu Xie in their eyes.

"Zilong, there is no need to persuade you to surrender! Liu Bei is the master in your heart, and the prime minister... It is the master of my heart. You and my brother are the same kind of people, and there are some things, once decided, although they die without regret... Isn't it? ”

Is death scary?

Terrible!

But in Xia Houlan's eyes, betraying her beliefs... Far more important than death.

"It seems that I can't persuade you, senior brother! Ziyuan... You've grown! If Master learns, he will be very pleased..."

Facing Xia Houlan's calm gaze, Zhao Yun gradually calmed down, thinking about how to save Xia Houlan.

After all, Xiahou Lan is one of the generals of the Cao army, these days Xiahou Lan Ning will not surrender, whether it is Zhang Fei or Liu Bei, they have gradually lost patience, and now with the news of Cao Cao's southern expedition, there has been a voice in the army to kill Xiahou Lan to sacrifice the flag.

Since you can't be persuaded to surrender, now... can only find an opportunity to send Ziyuan out of Xinye...

Lowering his head, Zhao Yun frowned unconsciously.

"Zilong... Are you trying to get me out of the city anymore? ”

The tacit understanding cultivated over more than ten years has made Xia Houlan clearly know what Zhao Yun is thinking in his mind now.

"For the generals, when blood was spilled on the field, and the body was shrouded in horse leather, and now I am in prison... Disgraced. Zilong, if you let me go, do you want me to live in humiliation... You still want me to die a humiliating death like this! ”

In the cell, Xia Houlan's voice suddenly became fierce, and the muscles around her body burst out, and she was indescribably angry.

"Ziyuan... You've got it! Brother, I... I can't watch you die like this..."

Closing his eyes in pain, a nameless anger in Zhao Yun's heart was soaring, it was anger at this world.

If it weren't for this cannibalistic world, how could they be like this.

"If you do, I'll die in this prison...

Senior brother, now I just want one pleasure. ”

……

After no one knows... What Zhao Yun and Xiahou Lan said, it's just... When an hour passed, when Zhao Yun walked out of the county prison, he was not as heroic as before, he looked like a lost soul, like a puppet with a string, unconsciously moving in one direction... Move forward.

Xiangyang City.

Since Liu Guan Zhang came out of Xinye, he has been speeding up all the way, guarding the city in the counties along the way, and he didn't dare to ask more when he saw it... After all, the news of Liu Bei's defeat of Xiahoudun's 100,000 army was known to Jingzhou, so he had a green card all the way and appeared outside Xiangyang at sunset.

"Brother Xuande... You're finally here! ”

In the state pastor's mansion, Liu Biao's bedroom, seeing Liu Bei's arrival, Liu Biao's spirit seemed to be much better, and he stood up halfway.

"Brother... You... How can you be so emaciated. ”

I haven't seen him for two months, and when I saw him again, Liu Biao was already full of white hair, looking at Liu Biao's haggard face, Liu Bei suddenly felt depressed in his heart.

More than ten years later, will he be like Liu Biao...

"Come on! Birth, old age, sickness and death, human nature. For my brother, I enjoyed all the glory and wealth in this life, and died... There is nothing to regret either. ”

With a chuckle, Liu Biao waved his hand and motioned for Liu Bei to sit in front of him.

"It's just... Now Jingxiang is stormy, Cao Mengde is eyeing the tiger, and a sweep of the seven counties... And even the war in the entire Jiangnan is close at hand. Originally, my brother thought that my brother's body could last a little longer, and shelter Cong'er from the wind and rain for a while. But now it seems... I can't last that time for my brother. ”

"Cong'er is young, and he can't bear the burden of millions of Li people in these seven counties, and it is even more difficult to suppress the persecution of the Jingxiang family and the scholar family. Are you willing to shoulder the burden of ruling Jingxiang for your brother? ”

When the words fell, Liu Biao rolled his cloudy eyes and stared at Liu Bei.

"Brother... Brother, why did he say this! ”

Hearing Liu Biao's words, Liu Bei was suddenly startled and hurriedly wept to the ground.

"My brother gave me a place to live when I was most difficult, and I was grateful and unforgettable day and night.

Brother rest assured, Bei will do his best to assist Cong Shizi, but... This matter of ruling Jing Xiang should not be mentioned again by the elder brother. ”

Bowing his head deeply, Liu Bei felt a rare trace of panic in his heart.

As the saying goes, people are dying, and their words are good, but... He couldn't be sure of the truth of Liu's words.

Cao Cao is Jing Xiang's great enemy!

And he Liu Bei... Isn't it Liu Cong's great enemy of Jingxiang?

"You... That's it! That's it! ”

Looking at Liu Bei's appearance of bowing his head and not saying a word, Liu Biao sighed and stretched out his hand... Fell weakly.

Does Jingzhou have a future?

"Newspaper..."

Just when Liu Biao was about to say something, he only heard... There was a sound of horses' hooves outside the state pastor's mansion, and it didn't take long for several scouts to carry the Liu clan's battle flag and lead the escort to the outside of Liu's room.

"The state pastor... Big things are not good! Cao Jun... Went south! ”

"The first army led by Cao Ren and Cao Hong has entered the territory of Nanyang and is now heading towards Wancheng."

Thinking of Cao Jun's banner that covered the sky and the sun, the voice of the scout... With a little bit of trepidation.

If it weren't for the fact that they were alone and two horses, I was afraid... He had already been caught up by Cao Jun's iron cavalry and killed by random arrows.

"Cao Jun... Is it coming? ”

Listening to the sound coming from outside the house, Liu Biao and Liu Bei's expressions suddenly sank.

Cao Cao has not yet sworn to go on the expedition, Cao Ren and Cao Hong have already killed in Jingzhou, Cao Cao this time... What a good hand!

A time difference, but they ... It's all in your hands.

"Brother! The situation ahead was critical, so I returned to Xinye overnight. ”

Hearing that Cao Ren and Cao Hongbing were pointing to Wancheng, Liu Bei naturally sat still, hurriedly said goodbye to Liu Biao, and turned around and walked outside the house.

"Xuande..."

"You say... The owner of Jingzhou, is it Qi'er to do a good job, or Cong'er to do a good job! ”

At the moment when Liu Bei was about to push the door, Liu Biao suddenly raised his head and asked in a hoarse voice.

"This kind of thing... When it was the elder brother's own decision. ”

After a pause, Liu Bei did not give a clear answer, and immediately pushed the door and left.

……

Cai Mansion, Cai Mao's study is bright and bright, and when she learned that Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei had come to Xiangyang, Cai Mao naturally had no idea of sleeping peacefully, and walked back and forth in the house with a volume of miscellaneous conversations.

"Liu Bei... Let's go? ”

I don't know how long it took, only to see Cai Zhong and Cai He push the door in, and Cai Mao stopped.

Looking at Cai Zhong and Cai He's panting appearance, Cai Mao hurriedly asked.

"Gone! Just now, news suddenly came from the north, Cao Ren and Cao Hong led an army of 100,000 into Nanyang, and now they are heading towards Wancheng... Liu Bei was in a hurry, and took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei out of the city overnight. ”

Taking a breath, Cai Zhong looked at Cai Mao's anxious eyes and responded in a deep voice.

"The two generals Cao Ren and Cao Hong led the army to Nanyang?"

Hearing the news, Cai Mao looked overjoyed, and walked back and forth two or three times, as if she was thinking about something.

"By the way, have you ever found out what Jingsheng said to Liu Bei?"

In the middle of the ring, Cai Mao turned his head, looked at Cai Zhong, Cai He and asked.

"This is not it! Because Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stayed not far from the house, the subordinates did not dare to deliberately approach the doors and windows, therefore..."

Although it is a pity, who let Guan Yu and Zhang Feipestle be there, with Guan Zhang's deterrent power, Mo said that it was the subordinates of the Prefecture Pastoral Mansion, and the two of them went to hide far away to avoid provoking these two killing gods.

Hearing the reply of the two, Cai Mao frowned slightly.

"In this way, starting tomorrow, the two of you will go to the city gate for me to stay for a while, and you must pay strict attention to the flow of people between Xinye and Jiangxia, the stakes are very high, don't go out on a business trip."

Although it is not clear what Liu Bei and Liu Biao secretly discussed, but... This doesn't matter anymore, as long as Liu Biao dies and the Jingzhou family and the Shi clan join forces to defend Nanjun, then Liu Bei will become a grasshopper after the autumn, crushed by the Cao family's hundreds of thousands of troops... It can last a few more days.

"Don't worry, eldest brother, this matter will be left to the two of us."

Nodding, Cai Zhongcai and hurriedly responded.

……

Bowangpo.

The traces left by the war are still clearly visible, and countless white bones... Scattered on a narrow stretch of scorched earth.

On this day, Bowangpo once again ushered in a team of military horses, which was the first army led by Cao Ren and Cao Hong.

As one of the shortcuts to Wancheng, Cao Ren and Cao Hong had no reason to change their routes. After all, Zhuge Liang has already burned seventy percent of the jungle shrubs in Bowangpo with one fire, and he can put another fire on this scorched earth... Burn the 100,000 elites behind them?

"Order: The whole army dismounted, and the wreckage was collected and buried on the spot."

Looking at the countless corpses and bones in front of them, Cao Ren and Cao Hong's expressions sank, as if the wails of countless unjustly killed soldiers kept ringing in their ears, and the hostility and killing intent towards Zhuge Liang in their hearts became heavier and heavier.

Two hours later, with the efforts of countless Cao soldiers, thousands of grave mounds occupied the flattest piece of land on the south side of Bowangpo.

Because of the countless corpses and bones, it has long been impossible to distinguish which one is the same person as the other, and it is impossible to distinguish which one... That pile of bones is the enemy's, and that pile is your own, so you can only pile them together at will.

"My Cao son... Your hatred and your injustices will be borne by this general, and this will swear here that Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang will definitely be crushed and ashes... With the blood of countless Liu Beijun, I will pay tribute to your souls in the sky. ”

A jar of turbid wine was sprinkled on the mound, Cao Ren roared violently, and then turned over and got on his horse... led the army to Wancheng.
