Cao Cao suspected that Zhang Fei had an ambush, so he suddenly looked west. Zhang Liao rushed up and bowed: "The prime minister is not surprised. Zhang Fei is alone, why is he afraid! Now hurry back to the army to kill, Liu Bei can be captured. ”

Cao Cao thought for a while, and then ordered Zhang Liao and Xu Chu to go to Changsaka Bridge to listen to the news.

Let's say that Zhang Fei saw Cao Jun retreating and didn't dare to catch up; He called back with more than 20 horsemen, removed the horsetail branches, and asked people to break the bridge, and then returned to the horse to see Liu Bei, and told Liu Bei and others about the broken bridge.

After Zhou Yu listened, he said to Zhang Fei: "General Zhang is brave and brave, and it is a pity to lose it." ”

When Zhang Fei saw Zhou Yu, he didn't know where he came from, and said coldly: "Who are you, dare to teach me how to use soldiers?" ”

Zhou Yu said: "In the next Zhou Yu Zhou Gongjin." ”

When Zhang Fei heard this, he sneered: "You are the white-faced scholar who was defeated by Han Xuan?" ”

When Zhou Yu saw Zhang Fei mention this, he was furious in his heart. After he was defeated by Han Xuan, he fled to Tianmu Mountain and was captured by Chen Wusheng, who was exiled to Fuyi, the king of Shanyue. After that, Zhou Yu endured humiliation under the command of the king of Shanyue, married the niece of the king of Shanyue, won the trust of the king of Shanyue, and finally united with the external Shanyue to destroy the tribe of Fuyi.

Zhou Yu later escaped with his Shanyue wife, and when he learned that Sun Ce was dead and that it was difficult for Sun Quan to rebel again, he wanted to defect to Cao Cao. As a result, he met Chun Yudao on the way, and was captured by Chun Yudao and his soldiers, and later met Chen Dao and was rescued by Liu Bei.

Liu Bei knew that Zhou Yu was quite resourceful, and he was careless when he was defeated by Han Xuan, and wanted to take Zhou Yu for his own use. Liu Bei immediately reprimanded Zhang Fei and said: "The third brother must not be rude, and listen to Zhou Gongjin's decomposition." ”

Zhou Yu said: "Cao Cao is resourceful. General Zhang Fei dismantled the bridge, and Cao's army would chase after him. ”

Zhang Fei said: "He was drunk by me and went back a few miles, how dare he chase him again?" ”

Zhou Yu explained: "If the bridge is not stopped, Cao Cao is afraid that he will bury the battle, and he will not dare to enter the army; Now that the bridge has been torn down, Cao Cao expects that Xuande Gong will be cowardly without an army and will come to catch up. Cao Cao has millions of people, although he wades into the Jiang and Han Rivers, he can fill in, how can he be afraid of a bridge? ”

Liu Bei nodded again and again when he heard this, and said to everyone: "What Zhou Gongjin said is extremely true. Third brother, quickly reorganize the troops, we will get up immediately and throw Hanjin from the small road. ”

Cao Cao sent Zhang Liao and Xu Chu to investigate the news of Changban Bridge, and reported: "Zhang Fei has broken down the bridge and left. ”

Cao Cao said with a smile: "Zhang Fei broke the bridge and left, but he was timid. ”

Cao Cao ordered 10,000 troops to quickly build three pontoon bridges, and only tonight to cross the river. Li Dian said: "This is probably Zhang Fei's trick, and it should not be taken lightly." ”

Cao Cao disagreed: "Zhang Fei is a brave husband, how can there be a scheme!" ”

So he passed down the order and marched quickly.

But he said that Liu Bei was approaching Hanjin, and suddenly saw the dust behind him, the drums were beating all over the sky, and the shouts shook the ground.

Liu Bei hurriedly said: "There is a big river in front, and there are chasing soldiers in the back, what can I do?" ”

Liu Bei hurriedly ordered Chen Zhi to lead Bai Yu's elite soldiers to prepare to resist the enemy. Cao Cao ordered the army to say: "Now Liu Bei is the fish in the kettle, the tiger in the well; If you don't catch it at this time, if you release a fish into the sea, the tiger will return to the mountain. The generals can move forward. ”

The generals took orders and chased after them one by one. Suddenly, at the sound of drums behind the hillside, a group of military horses flew out and shouted, "I have been waiting here for a long time!" ”

The first general, holding the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, sat down on the Red Rabbit Horse, which turned out to be Guan Yu. Guan Yu went to Jiangxia to borrow 10,000 military horses, and found out about the battle of Dangyang Changsaka, so he specially intercepted and killed him from this road. As soon as Cao Cao saw Guan Yu, he immediately reined in his horse and turned back to the generals and said: "Guan Yunchang suddenly killed, and then there may be ambushes, withdraw quickly!" ”

Cao Cao ordered the army to retreat quickly, Guan Yu chased for more than ten miles, and then returned to the army to protect Liu Bei and others to Hanjin, and there were already ships waiting.

Guan Yu asked Liu Bei, Mrs. Gan, and Ah to sit down in the boat. Guan Yu asked, "Why is the second sister-in-law missing?" ”

Liu Bei told Guan Yu about Dangyang. Guan Yu sighed: "In the past, when I hunted in Xu Tian, if I followed my will, there would be no trouble today. ”

Liu Bei said: "At this time, I also 'cast a mouse taboo' ear. ”

While he was talking, he suddenly saw the war drums on the south bank of the Yangtze River sounding, and the boats were like ants, sailing with the wind. Liu Bei was shocked. When the boat came closer, I saw a man in a white robe and silver armor, standing on the bow of the boat and shouting, "Uncle, don't come unharmed!" The little nephew is offended! ”

Liu Bei saw that it was Liu Qi. Liu Qi crossed the boat and cried: "Uncle Wen is trapped in Cao Cao, and the little nephew is here to answer." ”

Liu Bei was overjoyed, so he joined forces with Liu Qi and let the boat go. While everyone was talking in the boat, the warships on the southwest of the river were swinging out and coming in the wind.

Liu Qi exclaimed: "Jiangxia's soldiers, the little nephew has done his best. Now there are warships blocking the road, not Cao Cao's army, that is, Jiangdong's army, what can I do? ”

Liu Bei and others came out to the bow of the boat to watch, and saw a person in a scarf and a gorgeous suit, standing on the bow of the boat. The boat approached, and Zhou Yu saw that the man hurriedly hid behind Liu Bei, and Liu Bei asked in surprise, "Why is Gong Jin like this?" ”

Zhou Yu replied: "This person is Lu Su Lu Zijing, and he is my old friend. Now he is Han Xuan's staff, Yu and Han Xuan have grievances, please avoid it. ”

It turned out that when Lu Su heard the news of Liu Biao's death at first, Han Xuan went to Liaodong and let Han Hao take charge. Lu Su suggested to Han Hao: "The land of Jingxiang is adjacent to my Jiangdong, the rivers and mountains are dangerous, the fertile fields are thousands of miles, and the people are rich. Now Liu Biao has just died, his two sons are not harmonious, and the generals in the army are also divided into two factions.

Liu Bei is also a hero, and has a deep grudge with Cao Cao, and lives under Liu Biao, who is jealous of his talent and cannot be reused. If Liu Bei and Liu Biao's son work together, I, Jiangdong, should live in peace with them and form an alliance together. If Liu Bei deviates from morality from him, he should make another plan to achieve a great cause. Lu Su asked the general to send me to Xiangyang to mourn Liu Biao's second son and comfort the main general in his army. and persuaded Liu Bei, so that the others appeased Liu Biao's people, and worked together to resist Cao Cao, Liu Bei will gladly accept it. If you can achieve your goal, you can calm the world. If you don't go quickly, I'm afraid Cao Cao will take the lead. ”

Han Hao then immediately sent Lu Su to Xiangyang, when Lu Su arrived at Xiakou, he heard that Cao Cao's army had marched to Jingzhou, so he traveled day and night, and when he arrived in Nanjun, he learned that Liu Cong had surrendered to Cao Cao, and Liu Bei had retreated south.

Lu Su went directly to see Liu Bei, and finally met Liu Bei on the way. Liu Bei invited Lu Su to come to the ship, and Lu Su conveyed Han Hao's meaning and told Liu Bei about the previous alliance.

Liu Beixin said that Han Xuan was not in Jiangdong, although there was an alliance first, but I don't know if Han Hao can decide to resist Cao.

Seeing that Liu Bei was a little hesitant, Lu Su asked Liu Bei: "Liu Yuzhou, where do you want to go today?" ”

Liu Bei sighed and said, "Cangwu County is too shou Wu Ju is my old friend, and I want to vote for it." ”

Lu Su said: "Although the Marquis of Chu went overseas, there is still General Zhennan in Jiangdong to guard it. Now the Marquis of Chu has occupied the land of the nine counties, and there are many soldiers and food, which is enough to achieve great things. Now Su is Liu Yuzhou's plan, and it is advisable to send his confidants to Jiangdong to contact General Zhennan, so that they can build a great cause. And you want to defect to Wu Ju, Wu Ju is a common man, and he is in a remote place in Jiaozhou, and will be swallowed up by others, how can Liu Yuzhou be entrusted to him? ”

Liu Bei was a little hesitant when he heard this, and asked Lu Su to wait for a while and discuss with Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Mi Zhu and others. Liu Bei told everyone about wanting to take refuge in Han Xuan, but Zhou Yu persuaded him: "Cao Cao is powerful, and it is difficult to resist the enemy." It's better to go to Wu Ju to get a place to stay. So that Han Hao, Liu Du and Cao Cao hold each other in the north and south, and we can take advantage of it. ”

Liu Bei heard Zhou Yu say this and wanted to go to Cangwu again, since he started the army, he has repeatedly lived under people, and he has always been adrift. However, he has gained a lot of talent capital from those who have taken refuge, and he has missed Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang before it. Now that he has met Zhou Yu, he must not be recruited by others again.

Jian Yong also persuaded Liu Bei: "There are a lot of characters in Jiangdong, there must be a far-sighted plan, and Anken is compatible?" ”

Zhou Yu persuaded again: "Jiaozhou is far away from the war in the Central Plains, the people are rich and the country is rich, and the South China Sea is profitable." It is not a place where Lu Zijing said. Shixie is old, and his momentum cannot be defended, this God-given place for the general, may the general not hesitate. ”

Liu Bei finally made up his mind and came out to thank Lusu. Lu Su saw that Liu Bei had made up his mind, so he had to sigh, and then took a boat to Wuling to discuss with Liu Du about fighting Cao.

In Wuling City, Liu Du picked up the dust for Liao Hua, Huo Jun and others who came to join him. Liu Du picked up the wine and asked in front of Huo Jun: "I have been thinking about Zhong Miao for a long time, why is Zhong Miao coming?" ”

Huo Jun replied: "Jun couldn't assist Liu Jingzhou to achieve a great cause before, and now Jingzhou is lost, but he still wants to be able to defend the city and protect the land and the people." In this way, we can live up to our loneliness and weakness, and we will not be ashamed to die underground, but what we have thought about now is not finished, but to such a place. Huo Jun was really sad in his heart, and he came to see Ming Gong'er early without a face. ”

Huo Jun said and sighed and wept. Liu Du was stunned and said: "Zhong Miao is really a loyal minister! ”

Liu Du then entertained Huo Jun with generous gifts.
