Chapter 11 Yanmen Pass happened to meet Xu Huang Xu Gongming went with him
Everyone returned to Yanmen Pass, "Who is the one who has been closed?" The guard at the gate asked.
"I'm Lu Bu Lu Fengxian, Xu Gongming doesn't know a certain call?" Lu Bu stepped out of his horse and shouted towards the Yanmen Pass!
Hearing Lu Bu's words, Liu Bei was stunned, Xu Huangjing was also in Yanmen County, so he tried to recall Xu Huang's life, Xu Huang was born in Yang County, Hedong County, Guan Yu and Xu Huang should have a very good relationship when they were young, the birth year was earlier than Guan Yu, and now they should be less than twenty years old! When he was young, he was a small official in Hedong County, and when he thought of this, Liu Bei understood that this time he sent troops to attack Xianbei, and this Xu Huang also participated, but the official position was smaller, and he was a young general guarding the pass here!
As for Xu Huang being older than Guan Yu, there are historical facts to prove it! In the "Shu Chronicle", it is recorded that Guan Yu defeated the battle of Maicheng: the main force of Guan Yu's army is Tun Waitou, and there are four mounds in one Tun. Xu Huang used the tactics of attacking the east and the west, threatening to attack the head of the siege, but he unexpectedly attacked the four mounds. Before the war, because Guan Yu and Xu Huang were fellow villagers and had a good relationship, the two had a distant dialogue, but said that they were not as good as the military, and soon Xu Huang got off the horse and announced the military order: "The person who has the head of Guan Yunchang will be rewarded with a thousand catties." Guan Yu was frightened and said, "Big brother, what are you talking about?" Xu Huang replied: "This is a matter of the state." Then the two armies fought, Guan Yu was defeated by Xu Huang, and when he retreated from the camp, Xu Huang led the army in pursuit, and rushed into the camp after him. It can be seen that Xu Huang should have been born earlier than Guan Yu!
Although Liu Bei was thinking, the conversation between Lu Bu and Xu Huang did not stop, and after a while, Xu Huang confirmed the identity of Lu Bu and the others, and opened the city gate to let Lu Bu and Liu Bei enter this Yanmen Pass!
After entering Yanmen Pass, Lu Bu said to Liu Bei: "Brother Liu Xian, you go and settle down the horses, I will take them down to wash and change into clean clothes, and we will find the tavern for a good drink later!" What do you think? ”
Liu Bei couldn't ask for it: "So what you want, don't dare to resign!" I look at Xu Huang, who is guarding the city, is a masterpiece, can you ask Brother Lu to invite him to come and prepare a glass of wine for him! ”
Lu Bu laughed when he heard it: "No problem, when he changes the guard later, I will invite him over, and we will have a good drink together!" ”
Hearing this, Liu Bei led Tian Feng and Yan Liangwen Chou to drive the horses to the inn to make arrangements!
That night, Liu Bei took Tian Feng, Yan Liang and Wen Chou to the better tavern!
"Yuan Hao, this Lu Bu has been found, tonight's banquet is a chance for us to win over this Lu Bu, if we can't accept it today, he may not be able to do it tomorrow! There is also Xu Huang, the young general who guards the city today, be prepared, he will be a general in the future, if you can get it, then I am very lucky! ”
"The Lord is safe, and Feng will do everything he can to subdue these two for the Lord! This Lu Bu, Feng has already made up his mind, and Xu Huang will decide it! Tian Feng smiled slightly, and agreed!
When he arrived at the tavern, Liu Bei saw that Lu Bu, Xu Huang and the others had not come over, and at the same time, there was basically no one in the tavern to buy it, so he invited the tavern shopkeeper!
"Shopkeeper, you don't have any guests today?" Liu Bei asked.
"Hey, don't mention it, this army is in chaos, since the imperial court wants to go north to Xianbei, the business of my tavern is not as good as day by day, and those who have money have hid in the south of Bingzhou, who has no money will drink my wine." The tavern keeper replied with a sad face!
"In that case, I'll take care of your tavern today, and I'll prepare good wine and meat for me, and I'll have a group of brothers coming over later, help me entertain them!" Liu Bei said happily, when he left Zhuo County, Liu Bei still prepared some money, and then Yan Liang joined and prepared some money for Liu Bei, so Liu Bei still has the money to invite forty or fifty people to drink a meal!
Liu Bei and the four of them only sat in the tavern for half a pillar of incense, Lu Bu and Xu Huang walked into the tavern with the remaining fifty soldiers, and after arriving at the tavern, Lu Bu and Xu Huang took the two young generals to Liu Bei's private room, and left the remaining forty or so soldiers to drink outside.
Entering the private room, Lu Bu and the other four sat opposite Liu Bei! Lu Bu then pointed to the three people around him and said: "Brother Xuande, this is Xu Huang Xu Gongming, a native of Yang County, Hedong, and now the first captain of Hedong County. ”
Seeing this, Liu Bei was inexplicably excited! Then he introduced himself: "I am Liu Bei, the word Xuande, after King Jing of Zhongshan, a native of Zhuo County, Youzhou!" This scribe is Tian Feng, the word Yuan Hao, my adviser; These two people are Yan Liangwen and ugly, and they are my generals! ”
Hearing Liu Bei's introduction, Lu Bu and the others were all taken aback, and they all stood up and bowed to Liu Bei again!
Everyone sat down again, pushing the lamp and clinking glasses, and after three rounds of drinking, Lu Bu asked, "Why did Brother Liu Xian come to Yanmen this time?" ”
Liu Bei replied with a smile: "I came to Yanmen to see the hero!" ”
Lu Bu asked urgently: "What is a hero!" ”
Bei replied: "Fifty and the one who blocks the army is a hero!" Seeing Xu Huang and said: "The rout is inside, and those who do not abandon the pass when they see the enemy feed the heroes, Gu Ruzhi's four people are all heroes, and they are worthy of this trip!" ”
Hearing Liu Bei's answer, Lu Bu laughed, and then said: "Brother Xian has won the award, I think Brother Xuande is also a hero, he led four people to rescue us and others, and killed an enemy general in one move!" Isn't it a hero? ”
Everyone applauded! And at this time, an inappropriate voice sounded!
"Your four man-made disasters are coming, and you don't know what?" It was indeed Tian Feng who saw that Lu Bu and the four were too excited, so he poured a basin of cold water on Lu Bu and the four of them!
Hearing this, Xu Huang asked: "Sir, why did you say this, Brother Feng led fifty cavalry alone to block Xianbei's two thousand forwards, and rescued no less than a thousand defeated soldiers, wouldn't the imperial court reward it, and should it be punished?" I, Xu Huang, have been conscientiously defending the city without any mistakes, so do I still have to be punished? ”
Tian Feng smiled slightly: "The four of you are meritorious, but if the Northern Expedition is defeated by Xianbei, will the imperial court reward you according to your merits?" At this time, your merits are dazzling in the eyes of Tian Yan, the general of Poxian Bei, he led an army of 10,000 and returned with a fiasco, and one of you is a team leader, and the other is a captain, all of whom have merits, will he take credit for you? At this time, he should do everything possible to shirk the responsibility and assign the responsibility to the subordinate generals, and you, the meritorious generals, will be assigned the responsibility for the defeat first! ”
When Lu Bu Xu Huang heard Tian Feng's answer, he couldn't help but shake a wit, and the wine he drank instantly sobered up! Hurriedly asked Tian Feng for advice on how to solve this crisis.
Tian Feng replied: "If you are still an official, you can't solve it, and now you can only make a comeback if you leave the army temporarily!" Or find a great ruler who can shelter you, and offer you silver and gold, and shelter you. ”
Lu Bu, Xu Huang and the others, after thinking for a long time, didn't think that anyone could shelter them, so they all had the idea of temporarily leaving the army!
Seeing this, Liu Bei cried and said slowly: "After King Jing of Zhongshan, Bei Nai also has family resources, as a Han family sect, he personally learned literature and martial arts at an early age in order to serve the country and kill thieves one day!" Today, the saint is sage, but the traitor is in charge, and he wants to dissipate all his family wealth and seek a half-official position, to prepare for his Japanese Qing monarch's side, but he is weak, so he travels the world to explore like-minded heroes to conspire with the great cause, and also the Han Lang Qiankun, I heard that there are Lu Bu Xu Huang and other heartfelt heroes of the Han Dynasty, I came to visit, and invited to achieve great things together! As a member of the Han family, if he can't return to the Han Dynasty, how can he meet his ancestors and ancestors in the future? ”
Seeing Liu Bei like this, Lu Bu and the others were all shocked, but they had already seen Liu Bei's intention to solicit!
Seeing this, Liu Bei still didn't stop: "Fengxian, Gongming, if you are willing to work with Bei to support the great cause, Bei is willing to swear with you, 'If Bei can enter the court as an official within five years, he will definitely take you and others together, if not, you can leave at any time at that time, and I will also prepare for you to enter the body!" Five years later, if you two are still willing to follow me, I will marry you two as brothers with different surnames, and we will never leave you! ”
Hearing this, Lu Bu and Xu Huang had no other thoughts, and expressed their willingness to follow Liu Bei temporarily! Liu Bei was overjoyed, he was drunk that night, and he slept with Lu Bu and Xu Huang in the same clothes!
After resting for three days, Lu Bu and Xu Huang led all 50 people to leave their military posts, put on civilian clothes and rode more than 150 war horses to Yingchuan!
