There are two flowers, one on each branch.

After Cao Cao killed Lu Bohao's family, he ran in the direction of Chen Liu, while Liu Yi's side defeated Niu Fu and others, and he was also heading towards the Youzhou realm at this time.

Zhongshan is in the country, looking at the capital city.

After Zhang Chun was appointed as the prime minister of Zhongshan, he set up his mansion in Wangducheng.

To be able to stand out from the many rebels, not only survived, but also was entrusted with important tasks by the imperial court, Zhang Chun can be said to be lucky.

It is with this luck. That's why Zhang Chun was a little forgetful.

At this time, in Wangdu City, Zhang Chun created extremely luxurious, but all the fun things that Zhang Chun could think of, Zhang Chun had to send people to find and build.

No, I heard that the king of Shang in the previous life had invented the method of playing in the wine pond meat forest, Zhang Chun was very yearning, so he also ordered people to build infrastructure, and at the same time sent his subordinates to Zhongshan to find women for themselves.

In the past few years, after years of conquest, the people still have the energy and ability to get these for him, in order to build the wine pond meat forest, I don't know how many people died tragically, and how many women from good families were violated. As a result, Zhongshan was wailing all over the country, and the people were complaining.

"General, Liu Yi's gang has arrived in Luancheng!" In the county guard mansion in Wangdu, a person with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks ran to Zhang Chun, who was drinking with a woman in his arms, and reported respectfully.

Hearing this, I saw Zhang Chun put down the wine glass in his hand and kissed the beauty in his arms, the beauty was kissed by Zhang Chun's little face, and then shyly beat Zhang Chun's chest.

"Someone else!" The woman bowed her head shyly and said, a look of disgust in her eyes.

Looking at the appearance of the beauty in his arms, Zhang Chun was amused and laughed a few words loudly.

"It's just Luancheng, what are you panicking about, when will you report when you arrive in Xinshi!"

After driving the reported soldier out, Zhang Chun smiled lewdly and threw the woman in his arms on the bed, and then pounced on it like a wolf and began to snap with the woman.

Jizhou is located in the North China Plain, which was a large state on the rich side at that time, and the Youzhou and Merge states that intersected with it could not be matched in terms of economy and military at all.

There are a total of 17 counties under the jurisdiction of Jizhou, of which Zhongshan and Youzhou intersect, and Changshan intersect with Bingzhou.

The two counties are closely connected, and Luancheng is a small county on the border between Zhongshan and Changshan, which is under the jurisdiction of Changshan State.

At this time, Liu Yi's army of more than 10,000 people had already come to Luancheng.

Because there were still Liu Wei and Empress Dowager He in the team, Liu Yi didn't dare to make a big splash, so he set up a camp in a flat distance more than ten miles away from Luancheng.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Liu Yi, Guan Yu, and Xi Zhicai were sitting in the tent eating the dry food they carried with them.

These dry foods are made of some coarse grains and wild vegetables, which are very poor in taste and nutrition in addition to filling the stomach.

But at this time, Liu Yi is no longer the Liu Yi who has just crossed over, after several years of training, Liu Yi has been able to get used to eating these foods.

"Lord, our harvest this time is not small! I'm afraid that many people are thinking about us now, and we may be sad for a while in the future! ”

After eating the last piece of dry food in his hand, Xi Zhicai said to Liu Yi with a sad face.

Liu Yi knew the meaning of Xi Zhicai's words, and it was indeed as Xi Zhicai said, now he has the former emperor and the queen mother as bargaining chips, although the two have been deposed by Dong Zhuo, but in the eyes of many people, Liu Wei is still the orthodox emperor.

"Piff is not guilty, Huaibi is guilty!" Liu Yi understands the truth, so as soon as he heard what Xi Zhicai said just now, Liu Yi suddenly began to think about it in his heart.

"As long as we can return to Zhuoxian safely this time, I decided to recuperate for a while, after all, we have developed too fast during this time, the foundation is unstable, and the greater the power, the more problems will be exposed in the future!" After Liu Yi took a bite of dry food, he looked at Guan Yu and Xi Zhicai and said.

Hearing Liu Yi's words, Xi Zhicai nodded approvingly and said, "What the lord said is that in the past two years, we have first leveled the yellow scarf and then had the war prince Sun Zhan, although the harvest is quite rich, but the soldiers are mostly tired. Now, the young emperor has been taken over by us, and in our opinion, we should take this opportunity to recruit talents from all over the world, and then enrich our strength and wait for the opportunity to move again! ”

These words were in line with Liu Yi's mind, so Liu Yi nodded his head again and again in approval.

When it comes to recruiting talents, Liu Yi's most important thing now is Lu Bu.

Through getting along with Lu Bu during this time, Liu Yi knows that this person is not as greedy for money and forgetful as written in later generations, on the contrary, Lu Bu still attaches more importance to righteousness, which can be seen from letting Liu Yi go privately a few days ago.

Although he is more optimistic about Lu Bu, Liu Yi doesn't want to recruit Lu Bu so early at this time, after all, Lu Bu at this time is equivalent to being proud, although Liu Yi once gave him the grace of Kai, but if he wants to recruit Lu Bu because of this, I am afraid that he will never be able to, and even if he can recruit Lu Bu, I am afraid that Liu Yi will not dare to accept it.

"At the moment, we have to think about how we can return to Zhuoxian safely and worry-free, compared to when we came, we can be said to be facing enemies everywhere now"

After Liu Yi finished speaking, he picked up a dead branch on the ground and began to make a comparison.

"You see, now we have Dong Zhuo behind us, Zhang Chun in front, Dong Zhuo and the old state on the left, and Zhang Yan on the right, it is definitely impossible to rush back to Zhuo County all the way!" Liu Yi said to the two with a sad face.

As Liu Yi guessed, after Niu Fu and the others were defeated, Dong Zhuo ordered Xu Rong and Guo Xi to chase after them with an army of 20,000, and Niu Fu, Li Yu, and Jia Xu returned to Bingzhou to contact the local Hao of the old department of Bingzhou

The gentry was strong and noble, and organized these people to start from Bingzhou to intercept Liu Yi and others.

And Zhang Chun in front, because he once killed Wang San next to Liu Yi, it can be said that he has a hatred with Liu Yi and others, and seeing that Liu Yi is weak at this time, Zhang Chun must take this opportunity to make trouble.

The only thing that made Liu Yi still lucky was Zhang Yan in the south.

Since being appointed as the general of the Ping Yan Zhonglang, Zhang Yan has managed the administrative and public security affairs in the mountainous areas north of the Yellow River.

Zhang Yan and Zhang Chun also made their fortunes by rebellion, and because they both had the surname Zhang, when Zhang Chun first wanted to stop Liu Yi, he had already begun to contact Zhang Yan.

However, Zhang Yan is very cunning, since he learned that Gongsun Zhan was defeated by Liu Yi's army, Zhang Yan had already decided not to provoke Liu Yi in his heart, so when Zhang Chun came to persuade him, Zhang Yan kept saying that he was sick and did not agree to join forces with Zhang Chun.

"Zhicai, is there any news from the family recently?" After thinking about it for a long time, seeing that everyone couldn't come up with a good solution, Liu Yi pinned his hopes on Cheng Yu and others.

Hearing this, Xi Zhicai wiped the food scraps from the corners of his mouth, and then said to Liu Yi, "Lord, just now my subordinates heard the Malay report that the two generals Zhang and Yao have already set off with the army, if everything goes well, in another ten days and half a month, we will be able to meet the two generals!" ”

Hearing this, Liu Yi was relieved.

"That's okay, then let's hurry up and march in the next few days, and strive to join the big army before Zhang Chun's guy reacts!"

Guan Yu and Xi Zhicai nodded yes when they heard this.

In the next few days, Liu Yi and others marched all the way, and finally on the afternoon of the third day, they came to the vicinity of Xinshi County in Zhongshan Kingdom.

The reason why I chose to march in this direction is because along this direction, you can pass through Zhongshan Country as quickly as possible.

After coming to Xinshi, Liu Yi, as usual, ordered the army to find a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack and set up camp to prevent the enemy from attacking.

After a few days of marching day and night, everyone's bodies began to be a little unbearable, and seeing the steep terrain here, Liu Yi had the idea of resting here for two more days.

"Zhicai, I want the brothers to repair here for two days, how about you take a look?" This is a mountainside, the top of the mountain is craggy, it is very difficult to go up and down, and there are dense thorn bushes on both sides, and it is impossible for anyone to attack from both sides, and the only road that can reach Liu Yi and others is a big road.

Looking at the soldiers resting beside him, although Xi Zhicai felt a little inappropriate in his heart, he saw that the soldiers were indeed tired, so he had to nod his head in agreement.

Seeing this, Liu Yi ordered Guan Yu to take people down to reconnoiter the terrain and do a good job of sentry. Then he took Xi Zhicai to greet the young emperor and the Empress Dowager He.

Although it was to say goodbye to the young emperor, Liu Yi wanted to see Diao Chan more.

Since Liu Yi acquiesced in his relationship with Diao Chan in front of Empress Dowager He some time ago, the two usually have almost no other intersection except for meeting a few times in Empress Dowager He's account.

After some greetings, Liu Yi and Xi Zhicai withdrew from the Empress Dowager He's big tent.

After a few days of getting along, Liu Yi really had some other thoughts about Diao Chan in his heart, but when he thought that Wei Simeng was still pregnant at home, Liu Yi hurriedly shook his head and dispelled the distracting thoughts in his heart.

Nothing happened overnight.

At noon the next day, Liu Yi and the others had just finished lunch and were about to lie down for a nap when suddenly a soldier hurriedly ran up the mountain.

"Can the lord be in the account? I have something urgent to report! ”

Liu Yi and a few people, who were sleeping on the improvised wooden collapse, heard this and hurriedly got up.

"What's going on?" Liu Yi shouted to the great god outside as he walked out.

When the soldiers outside the tent heard this, they hurriedly ran to Liu Yi's side.

"Lord, it's not good, Zhang Chun has already killed with the army!"

Hearing this, Xi Zhicai behind Liu Yi hurriedly stepped forward and asked loudly, "How many people did he bring?" Where is it now? ”

When the soldier heard this, he hurriedly replied, "It is roughly estimated that Zhang Chun has brought at least 30,000 to 50,000 men and horses, and he is now less than thirty miles away from here!" ”

As soon as he heard that Zhang Chun had brought so many people to stop him, Liu Yi couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

"Yun Chang, you immediately gather the army and prepare to evacuate!"

"Yes!"

Guan Yu answered, and then hurriedly went down to gather the army.

"Zhicai, you quickly send someone to protect the Queen Mother and them, and ensure their safety no matter what!"

"Order!"

After speaking, Xi Zhicai turned around and went out, and then called a few fierce generals among the poisonous scorpions to go with him to protect the three of the Empress Dowager He.

After arranging these, Liu Yi himself hurriedly put on his armor and picked up his weapon.

After Liu Yi finished cleaning up, Guan Yu outside the tent had already urgently assembled the army.

Seeing that Empress Dowager He and the others had already entered the carriage under the protection of Xi Zhicai and others, Liu Yi greeted with relief, "Let's go!" ”

Because according to the Tanmalay newspaper, Zhang Chun's army was killed from the left rear, so Liu Yi ordered everyone to march to the right front.

After running for most of the day, Liu Yi and others have been rushing to the north non-stop.

Liu Yi and the others have been unable to go too fast because of the grain and grass and the carriage of the Empress Dowager He.

"Lord, the enemy is already less than twenty miles away from us!"

Liu Yi, who was running in front of the team, suddenly heard the soldiers running behind him say that the enemy was getting closer and closer.

Hearing this, Liu Yi glanced at the guards beside him

, and then shouted "Go and call Mr. Trick!" ”

At this time, Xi Zhicai was riding his horse next to the carriage of the Empress Dowager He, and when he heard Liu Yi's call, he hurriedly said to the Empress Dowager He, and then hurried to the front of the team.

"Lord!"

Seeing Xi Zhicai's arrival, Liu Yi hurriedly told Xi Zhicai the news that Zhang Chun was less than 20 miles away from everyone.

When Xi Zhicai heard this, he just thought about it briefly and replied, "Lord, the plan is now, you can travel lightly and quickly, and throw away the baggage!" ”

As soon as he heard that Xi Zhicai said that he wanted to throw away his baggage, Liu Yi suddenly hesitated.

It's not that Liu Yi can't bear the baggage behind him, the main thing is that there is still some distance from Youzhou at this time, if he loses the baggage at this time, I'm afraid that before he enters Youzhou, everyone will start to go hungry.

There is no reason for Liu Yi to be hungry, but it is indeed a fatal blow to the army of more than 10,000 people. You must know that 80% of the soldiers in history mutiny are because of the exhaustion of grain and grass, although Liu Yi is confident that his team will not mutiny, but if there is no food and grass, the soldiers will inevitably be unstable.

"Lord, the enemy is getting closer and closer, and the lord needs to make a decision as soon as possible!" Seeing Liu Yi's hesitant appearance, Xi Zhicai hurriedly urged.

Hearing this, Liu Yi thought about it, gritted his teeth and made a decision.

"Inform the rear army, immediately discard heavy loads and other heavy objects, and the team will move forward lightly!" Liu Yi commanded loudly to the herald beside him.

After the herald answered, he turned his horse and ran to the middle of the group, and began to convey Liu Yi's orders to the soldiers everywhere.

The speed of the discarded heavy loads of grain and grass suddenly increased.

Although Liu Yi's speed has improved, Zhang Chun's army behind him is still in hot pursuit.

"Lord, there is a small group of enemy troops in front of the left!"

Hearing this, Liu Yi hurriedly ordered everyone to change the direction of the march.

"My lord, there are enemy troops on the right again!"

So Liu Yi ordered the large army to start marching to the left.

Along the way, a message came from the scouts for a while, and Liu Yi repeatedly ordered the army to dodge the enemy forces that appeared nearby.

After correcting the direction of the march several times, Liu Yi's army suddenly came to a valley, looking at the towering cliffs on both sides, Liu Yi suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

Just when Liu Yi wanted to order someone to call Xi Zhicai again, he saw that Xi Zhicai had already driven his horse to Liu Yi's side.

"My lord, I feel as if the enemy is tempting us!" After Xi Zhicai came to Liu Yi's side, he shouted at Liu Yi urgently.

Hearing this, Liu Yi was suddenly enlightened, and suddenly understood why he had such a bad premonition.

"Oh no, I've been tricked!" Liu Yi shouted.

Liu Yi just reacted and wanted to exit the valley, only to see the gravel on the broken walls on both sides suddenly burst out.

"Liu Yi, Lao Tzu has been waiting for you here for a long time!"

After a disgusting shout, behind the stones on the broken walls on both sides, a group of soldiers suddenly appeared, and Zhang Chun was in the middle of the soldiers.

Seeing this, after Liu Yi scolded Zhang Chun, he hurriedly ordered the soldiers to turn their horses' heads and withdraw outside the valley.

Seeing this, Zhang Chun, who was on the cliff, shouted and gave the order to attack.

Then I saw those soldiers on the cliff, lifting the basin-sized gravel around them, and began to smash Liu Yi's army at the bottom of the valley.

Because the valley was very narrow, and Liu Yi's line was too long, the order could not be conveyed to the back for a while, which caused the soldiers in front to retreat desperately, while the soldiers behind continued to advance for unknown reasons.

The soldiers in front and behind were suddenly crowded in the middle of the valley.

Zhang Chun, who was on the cliff, was overjoyed when he saw this, and hurriedly urged his soldiers to throw stones below.

After losing nearly a third of the ordinary soldiers, Liu Yi's army finally rushed out of the valley, and as soon as they got out of the valley, Liu Yi and the others turned around and ran to the northwest, and Zhang Chun behind him saw this and began to pursue with his soldiers.

In the middle of the night, Liu Yi and the others were already besieged on a hill, and Zhang Chun at the bottom of the mountain and the tens of thousands of troops who came from behind had already surrounded the entire hill at this time.

Just when Liu Yi decided to prepare to divide his troops to assault and count a few if he could run out, suddenly there was a sound of shouting and killing from the bottom of the mountain.

"Grandpa is a Yanren, Zhang Fei is also! Who the fuck dares to bully my father-in-law! ”

Listening to Zhang Fei's familiar scolding in his life, Liu Yi and the others were about to burst into tears.

"Your uncle's Zhang Fei, if you don't come again, Lao Tzu will be done!" Liu Yixi scolded greatly, and then ordered Guan Yu and the others to prepare to go out and join Zhang Fei.

Just as everyone was about to go down the mountain to join Zhang Fei, they suddenly heard another loud shout from the other side.

"Yao Lie is here, the enemy general is not ready to dismount and surrender!"

Hearing this, I saw that the three thousand poisonous scorpions beside Liu Yi suddenly turned red, and then burst out with an amazing murderous aura.

Seeing this, Guan Yu on the side couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "The poisonous scorpion army, if it is not Brother Yao, it can't be unified!" ”

Originally, Zhang Chun wanted to give Liu Yi a turtle in an urn, but the appearance of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu suddenly turned the situation into an internal and external attack.

Although Zhang Chun has a lot of soldiers, they are all rabble, and he dared to make a move when he saw Liu Yi was weak, but at this time, seeing Zhang Fei and Yao Lie arrive, Zhang Chun suddenly retreated, and with a loud shout, he began to scatter and flee with the team.

After everyone fought for a while, they finally killed Zhang Chun's army.

As soon as Liu Yi, Zhang Fei and Yao Lie met, they went up to the two of them and hugged them.
