In a few moments, a dusty soldier strode in from outside. As soon as he saw Han Zhan, he immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "The little one is the lord!" ”

"Ben Hou asks you," Han Zhan knew that this was the messenger sent by Tai Shi Ci, he walked quickly in front of the soldiers, leaned down and asked nervously, "How is the situation of General Ziyi now?" ”

"If you return to the lord, General Ziyi and his men and horses are now surrounded by 5,000 enemy troops in Licheng." The soldier looked up at Han Zhan, clasped his fists and said, "Please send troops to rescue the lord as soon as possible." ”

Knowing that there were only five thousand soldiers and horses besieging Tai Shi Ci, Han Zhan's heart was a little more steady, and he secretly thought that even if Tai Shi Ci only had five or six hundred people, there should be no problem in supporting it for a period of time in the case of occupying a city. He stood up straight and asked tentatively, "How many soldiers and horses does General Ziyi have now?" ”

The soldier hesitated for a moment, and then replied: "We have recruited more than 6,000 soldiers and horses in various places in Yangzhou, and after being attacked by the enemy, some of them were killed and wounded, and some of them were scattered, and now there are probably more than 3,000 people. ”

"What, more than three thousand?" After hearing the number the soldier said, Han Zhan couldn't help but be taken aback, "In other words, more than 3,000 of you were trapped in Licheng by 5,000 of the enemy's army?" ”

"Exactly." The soldier replied. "The enemy army is fierce, General Taishi Ziyi is not the opponent of the enemy general, he can only defend the city to the death, and order the little starry night to come to ask the lord for help."

After listening to the soldier's answer, Han Zhan couldn't help frowning, and said in his heart: It shouldn't be, the generals under Yuan Shu are nothing more than Ji Ling, Yuan Yin, Zhang Xun, Chen Ji, Lei Bo, Han Xian, Chen Lan, Qiao Rui, Le Qi, Han Hao and others, even if there are many of them, except for Ji Ling's force value, the rest of the people are a group of spicy chickens, even if they are all tied together, they are not Tai Shi Ci's opponents, how can someone beat Tai Shi Ci so that they dare not go out of the city?

Thinking of this, Han Zhan snorted heavily and continued to ask, "I don't know that the general sent by Yuan Shu can actually beat Ziyi beyond parry?" Is it Ji Ling, Lei Bo, or Le Zhuo, Han Hao? ”

Unexpectedly, when the soldier heard Han Zhan ask this, he spit out a name that surprised everyone: "It's Wenhou Lu Bu." ”

"Is it Lu Bu?" Hearing the name of the soldier, Han Zhan couldn't help but be stunned. He remembered that when Lu Bu followed him out of Jingshi, he once mentioned that he wanted to go to Yangzhou to join Yuan Shu, and at that time he thought that the other party was talking casually, but he didn't expect it to be true.

Knowing that the person who trapped Tai Shici was actually Lu Bu, Han Zhan began to worry, although there were many generals under his command, but the only ones who could fight with Lu Bu were Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Huang Zhong and others. Zhao Yun is the commander of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, and he must not leave the army casually; Huang Zhong is not here, even if he sends someone to recruit him, it will take a lot of time; Dian Wei's martial arts are on par with the two, but he is injured at the moment, and he is not suitable to fight for the time being.

Who should be sent to deal with Lu Bu made Han Zhan frown. Seeing that Han Zhan was at a loss, Guo Jia walked over and asked the soldier a few more words, and then sent him to rest first. As soon as the soldiers left, Guo Jia looked at Han Zhan and asked tentatively, "Lord, are you worried about Lu Bu's affairs?" ”

"Exactly." Han Zhan saw that there were only Guo Jia and Zhao Yun present, so he didn't hide his true thoughts, nodded and said: "Lu Bu is brave and fierce, in the past, Dianziman and Xiahou brothers and sisters joined forces, and they were not his opponents. Now that he has trapped Taishi Ziyi in Licheng, Ben Hou is thinking about who to send to the rescue. ”

"Second brother, don't worry," Zhao Yun saw that Han Zhan was worried about the rescue, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Brother Wei is willing to lead troops to the rescue." ”

"No," Han Zhan refused Zhao Yun's request without hesitation: "You are the commander of the First Army, how can you single out Lu Bu like an ordinary general?" ”

"Second brother, now Ziyi's situation is critical, even if his martial arts are not as good as Lu Bu's, I believe that it is still possible to protect himself." Although Han Zhan refused, Zhao Yun said unwillingly: "I join forces with Ziyi, I believe that there should be no problem in retreating from Lu Bu's hands." ”

Without waiting for Han Zhan to speak, Guo Jia smiled and said to Zhao Yun: "General Zilong, the lord is right, you are the commander of the First Army, how can you go into danger in person?" The matter of rescuing Ziyi can be left to others to do. ”

"Military advisor," Zhao Yun immediately became anxious when he heard Guo Jia say this: "Lu Bu is excellent in martial arts, invincible in the world, he is not sure to defeat him, let alone others?" ”

"General Zilong, have you forgotten the Three Heroes Battle Lu Bu in front of the Tiger Prison Pass?" Guo Jia still said with a smile on his face: "Liu Guanzhang and the three of them joined forces, and they once killed Lu Bu to a big defeat, and now Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are in the army, so they might as well let them lead the troops to the rescue, they add Taishi Ziyi, and then have a round of three heroes to fight Lu Bu, Jia believes that Lu Bu can also be killed to the point of losing his armor." ”

Guo Jia's words reminded Han Zhan, and he immediately remembered the Jizhou version of the Sanying Battle against Lu Bu half a year ago, so he echoed: "The military advisor is right, although Lu Bu is superb in martial arts, it is not difficult to defeat him, half a year ago, Dianziman and Xiahou brothers and sisters once fought with him, and the two sides did not distinguish between victory and defeat. If Guan Yu and Zhang Fei came out, coupled with Tai Shici's help, it should be easy to defeat Lu Bu. ”

After Han Zhan said this, he shouted outside the lobby: "Someone! ”

With Han Zhan's shout, Chen Zhi walked in from outside, bowed down, and asked respectfully, "I don't know what the lord commands?" ”

"Uncle Zhi," Han Zhan said to Chen Zhi, "You quickly go to the barracks and invite Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to come here, Ben Hou has something important to discuss with them." ”

Half an hour later, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei followed Chen Zhi and walked in from outside. After the two saluted Han Zhan, Zhang Feiwen asked angrily: "Marquis of Anyang, our brothers are resting, I wonder if there is anything important for you to invite us here?" ”

Han Zhan said with a haha: "Two pioneers, Ben Hou originally planned to let you rest for a while, but suddenly something urgent happened, and I had to send my uncle to invite you here." ”

Hearing Han Zhan say this, Guan Yu said expressionlessly: "Since there is something, the Marquis of Anyang, please just give orders, and the two brothers will do their best." ”

"That's right, Ben Hou sent General Taishi Ziyi to Yangzhou a few months ago to recruit new soldiers for Ben Hou." Han Zhan said to Guan Yu: "Who knew that on the way back, they were chased and killed by Yuan Shu, and now they are trapped in Licheng, Xuzhou, and I want to ask the two of them to lead their troops to the rescue." ”

After Zhang Fei heard what Han Zhan said, he snorted coldly and said disapprerovingly: "The military generals under the Marquis of Anyang are like clouds, and if you send someone to go there casually, you can rescue Tai Shici." ”

Regarding Zhang Fei's attitude, Han Zhan was not angry, but said with a smile: "If it is an ordinary general, it will not be able to trap Tai Shici." But now that Wenhou Lu Bu is serving in Yuan Shu's army, it was he who personally led his troops to chase and kill Tai Shici, forcing Ziyi to occupy Licheng and hold on, and sent a messenger to Benhou for help. ”

Han Zhan knew the character of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, if they were kind to each other, maybe the two of them would push back and block, so he decided to try it with the radical method, "Lu Bu's martial arts are invincible in the world, and going to Licheng is a life of nine deaths, if the two pioneers feel that they are not Lu Bu's opponents, Ben Hou will definitely not be reluctant, and will choose someone else......"

"It turned out to be the three-surnamed house slave!" When Zhang Fei heard that the person they were going to deal with was actually Lu Bu, he immediately said with round eyes: "Marquis of Anyang, if it is Lu Bu's house, we are willing to lead the troops there immediately." ”

When Guan Yu heard Lu Bu's name, he immediately thought of the scene when the three brothers fought Lu Bu together in front of the Tiger Prison Pass, and he suddenly felt his blood boiling, he arched his hand towards Han Zhan, and said: "Marquis of Anyang, I am willing to lead the troops to Licheng with the third brother immediately and take Lu Bu's head." ”

Seeing that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei really fell for his own plan and was anxious to compete with Lu Bu, Han Zhan's heart couldn't help but bloom, but he tried to pretend to be calm on the surface and said: "The two pioneers have been fighting for days, and they must be tired, so they might as well rest in the city for one night, and then lead their troops south to Xuzhou tomorrow to rescue Tai Shici, how about it?" ”

Although Guan Yu said that he wanted to fight with Lu Bu immediately, when he heard Han Zhan say this, he also knew in his heart that it was impossible to set off overnight, even if his two brothers did not rest, those soldiers also needed to rest well, otherwise even if they rushed to Licheng with a group of tired soldiers, they would not necessarily have a chance to win. Then he clenched his fists and said to Han Zhan: "Guan obeys the order!" ”
