"It's them. Have you ever found them? ”

San Lang responded to Cao Cao's call and led the army to leave Hedong not long after. The people sent by Saburo brought them back. They are all strange women, Lianxiang is quirky and very cute, Meixiang is gentle and quiet, virtuous and virtuous, Lanxiang is literate and proficient in piano skills. Yan'er and they hit it off at first sight, and now they are friends. ”

"Huh? Why is there one less? What about Tianxiang? ”

"Do you mean the Tenka girl who is regarded as an older sister by Lianxiang? Lianxiang told me that although Tianxiang was a woman, she had a desire to travel the world in her early years, so she had left Jinyang a year ago and did not know her whereabouts. Therefore, the people you sent have not found her. ”

In Wen Han's mind, Tianxiang's fairy-like figure unconsciously rose, and his eyes unconsciously showed some disappointment. Cai Yan saw it in his eyes, but he didn't have the slightest jealousy, but comforted him.

"Saburo rest assured. Before Lianxiang left, she left a message to Jinyang's acquaintances. If Tianxiang went back to Jinyang to look for them, knowing that they had come to Hedong, she should also come. ”

Wen Han smiled, hugged Cai Yan, and said softly.

"Don't worry, Yan'er. In my mind, you are the person I will protect and love for the rest of my life. ”

Cai Yan just smiled, so beautiful that Wen Han was intoxicated and full of affection. Wen Han lifted Cai Yan's white jaw and kissed it gently, and Cai Yan responded with a little shyness.

The two are in love, they are husband and wife, and next, the thunder hooks the earth's fire......

Time flies like a white horse, and this quiet day allows Wen Han to recuperate physically and mentally. However, Wen Han didn't dare to indulge too much, because he and the people he loved and valued were still living in troubled times.

One day, he found Xilong, who was figuring out the possible war that the conquest and the state might face. Suddenly, there was a movement outside the door, and then Guan Yu, who had a lot of anger, and Diao Chan, who was full of eagerness, broke in front and back.

"Third brother! You want to conquer the White Wave Thief, how can you hide such a big thing from me! ”

Wen Han's expression changed slightly, he was not good at talking about this, so he hurriedly glanced at Xi Long and asked Xi Long for help.

"The second general should not be angry. Seeing that your injuries have not healed, the lord is afraid that your injuries will worsen when you go to battle with the army, and with the character of the second general, he will definitely keep it secret. At that time, on the battlefield, thousands of troops and horses, random arrows, swords without eyes, if the second general is injured again, then the lord can regret it. ”

Guan Yu listened, but he was not relieved, but cast his eyes on Wen Han. Wen Han sighed, it seemed that it didn't take much effort, he couldn't appease his arrogant second brother.

"Second brother, your injuries are not well, and it is not suitable for war. In case, what do you have to lose, how do you want me and my eldest brother and third brother to survive? We have an oath! ”

"Third brother, my injuries have long since healed. Moreover, those white wave thieves are nothing more than a rabble, so how can they hurt me half a point. ”

"Well, that's it. I didn't hide it from the second brother, the reason why I didn't tell the second brother before was because I was afraid that it would affect the morale of the army, but the second brother forced me so much, I have to say. Please also ask the second brother to listen with his ears. ”

Wen Han pretended to be mysterious, and Guan Yu was hesitant for a while, but he still walked over and listened to it. Wen Han whispered a few words quickly in Guan Yu's ear, Guan Yu was stunned at first, then his face became solemn, and finally he was suspicious and stared at Wen Handao.

"The third brother Hugh wants to deceive Guan, what he said just now, can everything be true?"

"Second brother, third brother, how can he deceive you. This matter has to be yours, leave it to someone else, I can't let go. ”

Wen Han's face did not change, and he nodded heavily. Guan Yu looked at Wen Han for a while, and when he saw that he didn't look like he was talking in vain, he believed half of it in his heart.

Diao Chan saw Wen Han say a few words on the side, and calmed down the angry Guan Yu, and his big eyes like a bright moon looked at Wen Han with a little curiosity.

"In this way, although the third brother can rest assured that he will fight with the White Wave Thieves in Bingzhou, there will be no mistake in Hedong."

"That's natural, my second brother is a peerless hero. However, the second brother still needs to recuperate a lot to prepare for the future. Diao Chan girl, I'm really tired of you these days. If it weren't for your careful care, the second brother wouldn't have gotten better so quickly. ”

Wen Han said, and suddenly saluted Diao Chan. Although Wen Han is Guan Yu's sworn brother, he has the identity of the lord of Hedong, how dare Diao Chan accept the salute, and hurriedly return the salute.

"Hehe, Diao Chan girl is stunning, and my second brother is really a pair of golden boys and girls. Second brother, I don't know when I'm going to make Diao Chan my sister-in-law? ”

Suddenly, Wen Han changed his words, squeezed his eyebrows at Guan Yu on the side, and said jokingly. When he said this, he was so ashamed that Diao Chan's face was flushed. Guan Yu smiled stupidly, and spared his head very cutely. Although Diao Chan's heart is beautiful, she has the reserve of a woman, and she kicked Yulian with half shame and half annoyance. When Guan Yu saw this, he thought that Diao Chan was unwilling, so he hurriedly chased after him.

Men in love are ignorant and dull. Even this Guan Yu, who has the name of making ghosts and gods fear, is the same.

Wen Han watched Guan Yu and Diao Chan leave one after another, and felt a little embarrassed in his heart. Regarding the matter of Guan Yu and Diao Chan, he can be described as complicated and amazed.

In the official history, the fate of Diao Chan is very sad. Although she later followed Lu Bu, Lu Bu's life did not last long, and after Lu Bu was killed by Cao Cao in Baimenlou, Diao Chan did not know where to go. Some people say that she was occupied by Cao Cao, and some people say that she went to Jiuquan with the failed Lu Bu.

What Wen Han didn't want was that the move he sent by Guan Yu to Chang'an to offer advice to Wang Yun would actually change Diao Chan's fate. Of course, Wen Han also vaguely remembered that he had read a lot of books in later generations, and it was also recorded that Guan Yu and Diao Chan were fellow villagers, and the two had a relationship. However, most of them are wild histories and cannot be trusted, so Wen Han didn't take it to heart.

However, from the current point of view, some records of wild history cannot be ignored.

"Lord, what trick did you use to deceive the second general?"

Suddenly, Xi Long walked over and pulled Wen Han back from his thoughts.

"Hey. This deception is not used properly. I just told the second brother that Yuan Benchu was likely to take the opportunity to invade Hedong after learning the news of my conquest and annexation of the state. ”

"How is this possible, Yuan Benchu is plotting against Jizhou, and he hopes that the lord will not take advantage of the situation to attack him Hanoi."

"Zhicai, anything is possible. Although Hedong is only a county, since the implementation of Tuntian, Hedong has become a state and county rich in grain and grass, and the princes near Hedong are all peeping at Hedong. And once we begin to conquer the White Wave Thieves, the east of the river will be empty, and it will not be surprising if the princes attack at that time.

Now it is just taking advantage of this reason to appease the second brother, so that he can recuperate from his injuries with peace of mind, and at the same time ensure the stability of Hedong, which is a move to kill two birds with one stone. ”

After hearing this, Xi Long pondered, since he decided to attack and merge the state, Xi Long has put almost all his thoughts into it, so there are some places where it is difficult to think about it thoroughly. Wen Han's words reminded him.

"What the lord said is very true, these days, I will think carefully about the garrison in Hedong. Fortunately, the lord reminded him in time, if it is really as the lord guessed, after we leave Hedong, other princes will attack. Nalong is to blame. ”

Actually, this can't be blamed on Xi Long, after all, Wen Han is really short of strategists now. And Zhang Hong and Han Song are better at internal affairs, and in some ways, they can't help too much at all.

"Zhicai don't want to be like this, the operation of the entire Hedong is entrusted to you alone, it's really too difficult for you. When the annexation is completed, I will issue a meritocracy order, hoping to recruit some talents to assist you. ”

As Wen Han's power grows larger in the future, this manpower does need to be increased. Xi Long heard Wen Han talk about the Juxian Order, his eyes immediately lit up, and he began to discuss this Juxian Order with Wen Han.

However, it was said that after Gongsun Chan left the righteous teacher, on the way back, he passed through the plains. At that time, the plain was attacked by Black Mountain thieves, and Liu Bei had already intended to stand on his own, so he asked Gongsun Zhan to borrow troops. And Gongsun Zhan knew that Liu Bei was not a person who wanted to live under others, and wanted Liu Bei to make a lot of contributions in the battle with Dong Zhuo, so he complied with Liu Bei's wishes and borrowed him 2,000 soldiers and horses.

So Liu Bei and his two invincible braveries, Pan Feng and Zhang Fei, led 2,000 soldiers and horses to attack the plain. The leader of the Black Mountain thieves in Pingyuan County, seeing that Liu Bei had few soldiers, ordered all his soldiers and horses to fight with Liu Bei.

Who knows, Pan Feng and Zhang Fei, the two giants, were brave and unstoppable, galloping on horseback, killing into the thief array, the weapons in their hands danced impenetrable, flying all the way like entering a no-man's land, and several young generals of the Black Mountain thieves went to block, and they were all killed by Pan Feng and Zhang Fei. Pan Feng and Zhang Fei killed hundreds of people in the army of Black Mountain thieves, and when they encountered the enemy, they slashed and stabbed, and only two of them killed the thieves. Later, Liu Bei saw that the thieves were all killed by Pan Feng and Zhang Fei, so he hurriedly waved his army to kill.

Immediately, the Black Mountain thieves were defeated like a mountain, and their thieves were split in half by Pan Feng's axe, and the remaining thieves saw that the thief was dead, and their courage was broken, and they knelt down and surrendered. After Liu Bei collected a wave of thieves, the strength reached 5,000, and he wanted to be demoralized like a rainbow at this time, so he fought with the remnants of the Black Mountain thieves in various counties in the plain for several days, until the Black Mountain thieves were repelled from the plain, and they fought all the way, and actually expanded the army to 8,000 people.

After Liu Bei took Pingyuan County, he sold the jewelry he got from Yuan Shao, and after obtaining gold and silver, he recruited troops while making people build armaments and buy and hoard grain and grass. There is a situation of one side of the princes.

Inside the Plains County.

"Report, Ji Governor Shi Gengwu is here to see you!"

"Jizhou? Transmit! ”

After Liu Bei paused, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had expected it and had been waiting for it for a long time.

After a while, Geng Wu, under the leadership of a sergeant, walked up to Liu Bei, and without waiting for Liu Bei to speak, Geng Wu gave Liu Bei a heavy salute.

"I heard that Liu Xuande is known for his benevolence and righteousness, and now that Jizhou is in trouble, I hope Xuande can come to the rescue!!"

Liu Bei hurriedly stretched out his hands to help Geng Wu up, his face full of concern.

"Why should Lord Geng give this great gift, Han Jizhou is loyal and righteous, and he and Bei Geng were comrades-in-arms and comrades among the righteous teachers. Jizhou is in trouble, how can Bei stand by and watch. It's just that Gongsun Chan once had a great kindness to Bei, and Beibei couldn't bear to be his enemy. ”

Xuande's words are wrong. Lord Gongsun was not deceived by Yuan Shao, but was used by Yuan Shao and made it a blade. That Yuan was originally a tiger and wolf, and my father-in-law lent him food three or four times, but he didn't know that he was raising tigers. This person is not greedy enough to swallow elephants, and he actually wants to plot against Jizhou. If Xuande is willing to make a move, but he can only fight against Yuan Benchu, my lord will not forget Xuande's great kindness, and all military things will come from Jizhou. ”

"In this case, can Lord Geng be allowed to think about it for a few days and then give an answer?"

"Xuande, now Jizhou is being attacked by Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan's soldiers and horses, and Jizhou is in danger. Before Wu came, my lord had already said that if Xuande was willing to send troops, he would be willing to give half of Jizhou to Xuande. ”

Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard it, but he didn't show it, and he was very righteous and authentic.

"Bei is the villain who robbed while the fire was burning!"

"Xuande is benevolent and righteous, of course my lord knows. But the tiger and wolf before and after Jizhou, my lord is really overwhelmed, and I hope that Xuande will save thousands of people in Jizhou for the sake of thousands of people!! ”

"Lord Geng actually said this, if he stood by and watched, it would be no different from a beast. I also asked Lord Geng to go back and tell Han Jizhou, and set up a three-day reserve to lead the troops and horses to save Jizhou. ”

"Xuande is benevolent and righteous, Wu is here to thank you!!"

Geng Wu was overjoyed when he heard this, and bowed heavily to Liu Bei again. Liu Bei helped Geng Wu up, and then took Geng Wu's hand, when he even said a high-sounding righteous words, Geng Wu was amazed and deeply moved, and almost regarded Liu Bei as the savior of Jizhou.
