Chapter 451

As the sky gradually became darker, the pedestrians in Xiapi City became sparse.

Curfew, an unavoidable word, especially in times of war.

Modern people usually don't understand why there is such a thing as a curfew. In fact, curfews have been around for a long time, in times of war or disaster. Curfews were not particularly troublesome for the people of ancient times, at least not very disturbing to life. If there is something particularly urgent, you can discuss it with the night watchman, and you will be granted the right to pass as long as you get permission.

And for those who have to rely on the cover of night, curfews are a big problem.

For example, gambling was forbidden for most of the dynasties, and in order to hide people's eyes, gambling could only be done at night. In addition, in order to avoid chaos, unlike later generations, there are few artificial lights in this era, even in the city, if there are people who are willing to make trouble, just a fire can cause a lot of trouble, and if it is not good, it will also harm the whole city.

In times of war, stability is the most important thing, and the government can only issue curfew orders in order to avoid trouble.

Putting the kung fu that had just been processed on the right side of the table, Mi Zhu took the tea that the next person had just brought over and took a sip gently.

Tired nerves, finally a little more energetic.

Getting up from his chair, he pushed open the window next to him, and a cold wind blew in. Mi Zhu wrapped his coat tightly and looked outside, but only saw pitch black.

"I don't know what happened to the lord's side, I hope there will be good news back after a while"

Muttering so, he looked back at the things on the table, and sighed again.

The front is lively, and Xiapi is actually very busy, especially Mi Zhu, who was entrusted with important tasks, and is responsible for all matters related to baggage supplies. This war doesn't have to last long, and all the baggage supplies need to be sent from Xiapi. It's not that there are no supplies in the East China Sea, but it is a little whimsical to expect the East China Sea County to provide the materials needed by tens of thousands of troops.

Therefore, most of the materials still need to be raised from Xiapi, and as the most widely populated and richest family head in Xiapi City, there is no one more suitable for this job than Mi Zhu. In particular, the Mi family is still mainly engaged in business, and they are the best at management, and these burdens can be better distributed if they fall into the hands of Mi Zhu.

It's just that

Mi Zhu is still loyal to Liu Bei, even if there is an estrangement, but Liu Bei's brother Zhang Fei has a lot of opinions about Mi Zhu

In Zhang Fei's opinion, this incident was purely caused by Mi Zhu, if it weren't for Mi Zhu praising his sister like a fairy, Liu Bei would not be tempted, let alone make a fuss about today's incident, so that his eldest brother would lose so much of a big person in vain.

Because of Liu Bei's strict orders, and Mi Zhu's identity is indeed important, almost all of the tens of thousands of troops in Donghai County now need to rely on the materials deployed by Mi Zhu, and Zhang Fei does not dare to act rashly against Mi Zhu. But when I usually see it, blowing my beard and glaring are always indispensable. It makes Mi Zhu feel bad in the bottom of his heart.

Just as Mi Zhu sighed, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.

It can be seen that the person outside the door also knows that Mi Zhu is handling official business, he is very busy, and he doesn't dare to disturb it in particular, and even his steps are deliberately light. If it weren't for the fact that Mi Zhu had finished some of his official duties now, he could distract some of his attention, maybe he wouldn't have heard this voice.

"Who is it?" Closing the window and sitting back in his original position, Mi Zhu asked in a raised voice.

"It's a villain" A voice sounded outside the question, this voice was a little familiar, it was a subordinate who was responsible for taking care of him.

"Come in" Mi Zhu didn't worry about anything, after all, this is Mi Mansion, not to mention anything else, there are hundreds of soldiers in the nursing home alone, and it is impossible for idlers to come in.

With Mi Zhu's permission, the door was pushed open, and a servant walked in, still holding two things in his hand.

"Master, here's a letter and an invitation," said the subordinate, who had already handed two things to Mi Zhu.

Taking something from the subordinate's hand, Mi Zhu looked at it, then looked at the subordinate and asked.

"What are these things?"

The servant hurriedly replied. "The first one is sent back from Donghai County, it is Liu Zhijun's handwritten letter, and the second is an invitation from General Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide, it is said that General Zhang plans to take advantage of Liu Yuanjun's departure to hold a final banquet, and I hope that the head of the family must appreciate it."

"Three generals, will you actually send me an invitation?" Hearing the news, Mi Zhu was obviously stunned for a moment.

Originally, at this time, he should have opened Liu Bei's letter first, after all, it was his lord, and the letter was still sent back from the front line of Donghai County, maybe there would be something important in it. But Mi Zhu is more curious about Zhang Fei's matter, and now Zhang Fei's disagreement with himself may have spread throughout Xiapi. I don't dare to say that everyone knows everything, but it should be about the same, at this time Zhang Fei sent an invitation over, and Mi Zhu really wanted to see what was written in it.

As for the subordinate, at Mi Zhu's signal, he had already withdrawn from the room.

After the servant pushed out of the room, Mi Zhu opened the invitation card and took a closer look.

Just like what the subordinate said, before Liu Bei left, he knew very well that this brother of his liked to drink, and often made mistakes because of drinking.

Usually I have to watch, even if something happens, at least he can help with it. But this time the situation is different, this time Liu Bei and Guan Yu have left Xiapi, and Zhang Fei is the only one left, and in this Xiapi City, there are so many people who Zhang Fei doesn't like to see. Liu Bei was really afraid that Zhang Fei would get into trouble because of drinking. At that time, he was far away in Donghai County, and I am afraid that no one would be able to stop Zhang Fei.

Therefore, before leaving, Zhang Fei was strictly ordered not to drink.

If it was someone else who said this, even if it was Guan Yu who said it, Zhang Fei might not listen to it in his heart, of course, it is more likely that he will listen to it in his heart for a while, and forget it after a while.

But Liu Bei is different, that is his most beloved eldest brother, what his eldest brother ordered, how could he not follow what he was told?

It's just that

Just let Zhang Fei quit drinking, he was unwilling, not temporarily

After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Fei came up with an idea, using the last reason to have a good wine banquet, and let himself have a good drink.

Don't look at Zhang Fei as a rough man, he is also very educated, especially good at ladies, and he is a rough man who cannot be seen.

He knew very well that when Liu Bei came back, he knew how angry he would be when he drank behind his back, and he also knew the truth that the law did not blame the public, so he sent someone to call all the people in the city who had a little more status, so that even if Liu Bei came back, could he still punish everyone?

Among them, it also includes Mi Zhu.

Zhang Fei and Mi Zhu didn't deal with each other very much, but this time for the sake of drinking, they reluctantly endured it. And if he can really take this opportunity to punish Mi Zhu, Zhang Fei is also happy, even if he may even be implicated in doing so.

In comparison, Liu Bei's letter is much simpler, and the content written on it is nothing more than that the front-line battle situation is stalemate, which is very troublesome, and I hope that Mi Zhu can do his best to transport grain, grass, ordnance and other materials to Donghai County. It is clear that the situation at the front is not very rosy.

"This three generals" put down Liu Bei's letter, picked up Zhang Fei's letter and looked at it, Mi Zhu couldn't help but sigh.

He didn't think about giving Liu Bei a small report, because he had already seen it clearly, don't look at Liu Bei is now a prince, in fact, there are only three people in his heart. One is Zhang Fei, the other is Guan Yu, and the other is Jian Yong, who raised troops from his hometown with him.

It's very simple to denounce this kind of thing, but after the high occurrence, is it possible that Liu Bei can still punish his brother?

In the end, it must be over, Mi Zhu can even guess who will intercede at that time, and when Liu Bei should push the boat down the river and withdraw the punishment for Zhang Fei/.

Anyway, it's impossible, Mi Zhu doesn't want to waste such effort/

And if Zhang Fei can really take this opportunity to temporarily quit drinking for a while, it will also be of great help to the protection of Xiapi, right?

Thinking of this, Mi Zhu put away the letter and began to think about how to go to the banquet.

1111111 dividing line 1111111

The fighting continues, and it's getting bigger.

Unlike the first day's temptation, as time went on, more and more people participated in this bloody battle.

By the third day, the two sides had completely torn their skins, and could no longer care about any temptation, but sent more than half of their troops forward, leaving only a small part as reserves or replacement soldiers and horses.

As the battle progressed, a group of generals also attracted attention because of their active performance in this battle.

For example, Chen Zhi in Liu Bei's army, as the only commendable young general of the younger generation in Liu Bei's army, Chen Zhi's performance is extremely active, and his martial arts are also extremely strong, even not inferior to many fierce generals under Yan Shao's account.

In fact, at this time, history also underwent some changes, in the original history, Chen Zhi should have chosen to defect to Liu Bei after Liu Bei was driven out of Xuzhou by Lu Bu and defected to Cao Cao. But in this era, he defected after Liu Bei became the pastor of Xuzhou. However, it is not surprising that the world has changed a lot, and it is normal for a little butterfly phenomenon to appear. It can't be that all changes can appear on Yan Shao's side, but don't let the other princes change a little.

When it was Yan Shao, after learning that the most active young general in Liu Beijun on the opposite side was Chen Dao, he immediately regretted it.

For this fierce general whose historical evaluation is second only to Zhao Yun, Yan Shao has also liked it for a long time. The only pity is that there are too few descriptions of this famous general in history, so that Yan Shao doesn't know where to find this person. So much so that he had to give up the plan to find it, and now that a real person appeared in front of him and was so active, how could Yan Shao not regret it?

However, when Yan Shao was envious of Liu Bei, in fact, Liu Bei was also envious of Yan Shao

Yes, Liu Bei's subordinates did have a Chen Dao, but don't forget, there will only be more fierce generals under Yan Shao's account.

Not to mention the fierce generals who came with Yan Shao this time, just talking about the second-level, Guan Hai and Zhou Cang and others, who have already gone to the battlefield, are almost jaw-dropping. Especially when Guan Yu does not get off the field, it is even more difficult to resist.

And one of the most prominent performances is Guan Hai, as the number one fierce general among the millions of yellow scarves in history, Guan Hai's bravery is amazing. In the course of riding a horse on the battlefield, almost no one has made it past five rounds under his hands.

In a few days, Liu Beijun's junior generals who died in his hands were as many as ten.

"Brother!" Seeing Guan Hai fighting back and forth on the battlefield, and constantly having soldiers from his own side die, Guan Yu couldn't help but become anxious.

Looking at Guan Hai's killing, Liu Bei shook his head. He knew very well that no matter how eye-catching Guan Hai's performance was now, in fact, it was harmless and would not have a particularly big impact on the form of the entire battlefield.

What really deserves attention is the overall battlefield

Seeing that Liu Bei didn't speak, Guan Yu had no choice but to close his mouth and just continue to look at the brave man.

This gaze doesn't matter, even if it's Guan Yu's bravery, he can't help but be surprised. It turned out that like Guan Hai, Chen Zhi's performance was also quite amazing, and many Qingzhou soldiers and officers had died under his gun, and one of them was even a general with some status. Such a performance naturally attracted Guan Hai's attention.

I saw Guan Hai patting the ring knife in his hand on the horse's back, and rushed towards Chen Dao.

Guan Hai did not hide his whereabouts, and Chen found this rough man as soon as possible.

However, as soon as the two of them fought, Chen Zhi secretly said that it was not good.

Guan Hai's bravery is somewhat beyond his imagination, with his martial arts, he actually feels a little difficult to take Guan Hai's knife, it can be imagined that there is a certain gap in the strength of the two.

"Yun Chang, go and save Uncle Zhi!" Liu Bei also noticed this scene and hurriedly ordered.

In Liu Bei's army today, there are few good seedlings, and he can't let Yan Shao pick this seedling.

Guan Yu, who got the order, immediately picked up the big knife and rushed over, taking Guan Hai from Chen Zhi's hand.

Seeing this red-faced and long-bearded man, I don't know why, Guan Hai was excited in his heart, and after shouting that he was good, he picked up a big knife and confronted Guan Yu.

In the first ten rounds, the two sides were actually evenly matched. This made Guan Yu secretly surprised, but in the twentieth round, in the face of Guan Yu's continuous offensive, Guan Hai gradually fell into a disadvantage.

Seeing that Guan Hai's situation was getting worse and worse, a silver spear was inserted between them.

I saw Zhao Yun, who was dressed in white robes and silver armor, and smiled slightly at Guan Hai. "Leave this person to me!"

The fight between Zhao Yun and Guan Yu quickly attracted the attention of the audience. Both of them are super-first-class fierce generals, and their strength is very similar, Zhao Yun's moves are exquisite, while Guan Yu is powerful, and the two sides are almost comparable.

In the middle of the battlefield, the two of them fought there almost in circles around the open space that had been set aside, and everyone watching was attentive.

Especially Zhang Fei, looking at Zhao Yun, who was fighting with his brother, smashed his mouth with some regret.

For a martial artist like him, there is nothing better than an opponent of the same level. Now I finally ran into one, but it wasn't him, which is naturally a pity.

For Liu Bei, looking at Zhao Yun, who is in white robe and silver armor and has excellent martial arts, he has more regrets. When the sour jujube alliance was formed, he had witnessed with his own eyes how outstanding Zhao Yun's martial arts were, and even considered recruiting Zhao Yun, who was still a soldier at the time, into his command.

It's a pity that he was a little late
