Chapter 172: Lu Chengyu (4)

Ma Xiao saw Lu Chengyu and asked, "Why is Ma Zhuangshi here?" What is the important military situation", hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his hand: "Ma Xiao, Lei Ke, Yun Ye, and Yu Bo are the guards of the adults, and the safety of the adults is tied to the four generals at all times!" As soon as the adults walked out of the gate of the palace, we followed behind, but the adults didn't notice it! ”

Lu Chengyu laughed loudly, pointed his finger at Ma Xiao and said, "General Ma and the four of them are mysterious, and the lower officials didn't find out that you were following behind!" ”

After a pause, he swallowed his throat and said: "But after all, this seems to be a bit raw, since General Ma followed the subordinate officer, we have been like brothers; Is there anything you can't say......"

Lu Chengyu said this, suddenly stopped and stared at Ma Xiao and said, "If Lu is not mistaken, General Ma is 22 years old this year, isn't it!" ”

"Lord Qiyu, the last general is 22 years old this year!" Ma Xiao clasped his hands into fists and bowed and said, "Adults can remember the age of the young general, which really makes people cry!" ”

Lu Chengyu laughed and said: "Lu is 31 years old this year, and Ma Zhuangshi is 22 years old; You are the little brother, and the little brother can't face the brother if he has anything to say; But they have to be quietly followed! ”

Ma Xiao was stunned for a moment, and said: "There is nothing wrong with the fact that the adult is the brother of the last general, but after all, you are the prefect of Chengdu, a member of the third rank of the imperial court; There is a distinction between us, and there must be some reason why the adults did not inform us of the private visits; The young general didn't dare to ask directly, so he could only secretly protect the adults! ”

Lu Chengyu saw that Ma Xiao Zhenzhen had words, and knew that he was suspected of violating the ban if he did not inform the guards; Then he smiled and said: "General Ma is reasonable, what is the important military situation!" ”

When Ma Xiao saw Lu Chengyu inquiring about the military situation, he immediately shouted to a horse-leading attendant in the distance: "Yang Dutou, come here!" ”

The head of Yang Du, named by Ma Xiao, is Yang Heyi, and he is a messenger sent by Wen Tongxiao of Shiquan Zhixian County.

Wen Tongxiao and Qin Feng, the supervisor of the Qingshichuan Horse Farm, finalized the matter of escorting 1,000 war horses to Bianliang, Tokyo, by the Shiquan County officials and the horse farm guard team, and felt that it was a little inappropriate; Then he said to Qin Feng: "Brother Qin, there are four or five hundred soldiers from the Shiquan County Officials and the Qingshichuan Field Protection Team, which is already quite a lot; But if you don't have a general who can cut the vegetables, I'm afraid it will be difficult to complete the task of sending the horse! ”

Qin Feng was stunned, stared at Wen Tongxiao and asked, "Brother Wen is not a panacea, so he said this!" ”

Wen Tongxiao smiled and raised his arm and said: "Learn from Liu Xuande back then, borrow the general!" ”

Wen Tongxiao said this, and without waiting for Qin Feng to ask, he stood up and paced on the floor of the house and said: "Liu Xuande borrowed a tiger general Zhao Zilong back then, so that Changbanpo snatched back the crown prince Adou and continued the great cause of Shu Han incense!" ”

Qin Feng heard Wen Tongxiao mention that Liu Xuande borrowed Zhao Zilong, and his thoughts returned to the troubled times and disputes in the early Three Kingdoms.

In the first year of Zhongping in the Eastern Han Dynasty (184 AD), the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out; Twenty-four-year-old Liu Bei made great achievements in the battle to suppress the uprising.

Later, in the third year of Zhongping (188 AD), he participated in the suppression of Zhang Chun's rebellion, and was awarded the title of county lieutenant of Anxi County for his military merits.

Later, the imperial court had an order: if anyone who became an official because of military merits was selected, Liu Bei should be dismissed; After Liu Bei learned the news, he went to the post station where the post supervisor stayed and asked to see him, but the post supervisor said that he refused to see Liu Bei; Liu Bei held a grudge and tied up the post supervisor and whipped him twice, and then fled with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to abandon the official.

The general He Jin sent Biqiu Yi to Danyang to recruit troops, and Liu Bei joined on the way; When he arrived in Xiapi, he fought with thieves and made meritorious contributions, and he was appointed as the prince of Xiami County, and then resigned; Then he served as Gao Tang Wei and Gao Tang Ling.

Gaotang County was attacked by thieves, and Liu Bei went to Ben to seek refuge with Gongsun Zhan, and was listed as Sima of other departments.

Liu Bei attached himself to Gongsun Zan and saw Zhao Yunqiwei and loved it deeply; Gongsun Zhan fought with Yuan Shao and sent Tian Kai, the assassin of Qingzhou, to occupy the land near Shandong; Yuan Shao also sent tens of thousands of troops to fight for land.

Gongsun Zan promoted Liu Bei to Sima of other departments and sent Liu Bei to help Tian Kai resist Yuan Shao; and sent Zhao Yun as Liu Bei's entourage and asked him to lead the cavalry for Liu Bei.

Zhao Yun asked Gongsun Zan to resign and return to his hometown because of his brother's death, and Liu Bei knew that Zhao Yun would not come back if he went; Therefore, holding Zhao Yun's hand was reluctant to part.

Zhao Yun was moved, and said goodbye to Liu Bei: "I will never betray your kindness." ”

In the fifth year of Jian'an (200 years), Liu Bei was defeated by Cao Cao and went to attach to Yuan Shao; Zhao Yun went to Yecheng to see Liu Bei, and the two slept in the same bed.

Liu Bei secretly reprimanded Zhao Yun for recruiting hundreds of soldiers, and claimed to be the left general Liu Bei's subordinates; Yuan Shao didn't know about it.

Zhao Yun followed Liu Bei to Jingzhou and never left, Zhao Yun followed Liu Bei for nearly 30 years, and successively participated in the Battle of Bowangpo, the Battle of Changbanpo, and the Battle of Jiangnan Pingding, and commanded the Battle of Izukawa, the Battle of Hanshui, and the Battle of Keigu alone, all of which achieved very good results.

In addition to fighting everywhere, Zhao Yun also successively served as Guiyang Taishou as a partial general, stayed in the camp Sima to stay in the public security, and supervised Jiangzhou with the Yijun general.

In addition, when Zhao Yun pacified Yizhou, he led Huo to the sick story and advised Liu Bei to return the farm house to the people; After Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were killed, he advised Liu Bei not to attack Wu, and was praised by later generations as a Confucian general with ministers, and was even considered the most perfect figure in the Three Kingdoms period.

Qin Feng pondered the relationship between Zhao Yun and Liu Bei for a while, turned to Wen Tongxiao and asked, "What kind of heroes does Wen Zhixian use Liu Bei to introduce Zhao Yun to!" ”

Wen Tongxiao laughed a few times and said: "Xiaguan's younger brother Liang Chengyu recruited a warrior named Ma Xiao when he was the prefect of Liangzhou, Ma Xiao is the descendant of Ma Chao, the general of the Five Tigers of Shu Han in the Three Kingdoms; If Ma Xiao can be borrowed to lead the troops to carry out the task of sending horses, it will definitely end successfully! ”

"Okay!" Qin Feng was delighted, looked at Wen Tongxiao and said: "Wenzhi County has the talent of Emperor Liu Huangshu Zhaolie, and our horse delivery mission must be very successful!" ”

After Wen Tongxiao and Qin Feng said goodbye to the Shiquan County Ya, they sent Yang Heyi, the head of the county Yadu, to rush to Chengdu to report to the Lu Governor's Mansion on a fast horse in the starry night; Borrowed from General Ma Xiao.

Yang Yiyi rode at a gallop, and it was late at night when he arrived in Chengdu; I found an inn and slept for an hour, and before dawn, I rushed to the Chengdu Mansion to see the prefect Liang Chengyu.

The guards at the gate of the government stopped him, and Yang Yiyi explained the situation; The guards said that Ma Xiao, Lei Ke, Yun Ye, and Yu Bo had just come out of the gate for not long ago.

Yang Yiyi asked Ma Xiao what the four of them were doing early in the morning, and the door control said that the prefect seemed to have a private visit; Ma Xiao's four guards followed behind the prefect to secretly protect his safety.

Yang Heyi heard that Governor Lu and General Ma Xiao had gone out, so he chased after him.

But Yang Yiyi didn't know which street Lu Zhifu and Ma Xiao were walking, but he was riding a horse; He scurried around in the streets and alleys, and when he came to Wuhou Street, he saw four guards with knives driving in front of him, so he chased after him and shouted: "Is there General Ma Xiao in it!" ”

Yang Yiyi really shouted right, the four guards with knives are Ma Xiao, Lei Ke, Yun Ye, and Yu Bo.

When Ma Xiao saw Yang Heyi coming on horseback, he shouted his name and asked him who he was, and Yang Heyi said that he was the head of Wen Tongxiao, the magistrate of Shiquan County; On the order of Wen Zhixian, he visited Lord Lu Zhifu and borrowed General Ma Xiao.

Ma Xiao asked about the situation, and then rushed forward to explain to Liang Chengyu; When Lu Chengyu inquired about military intelligence, Ma Xiao beckoned Yang Heyi over......
