Chapter 44: The Twin Heroes
(Recommended reading: The heavy rain continues, day and night, as if the sky in Huainan has been leaked, for this reason, even Cao Cao, who has never respected ghosts and gods, also ordered to build a platform and put three sacrifices on the tribute, hoping that the dragon king will collect the rain, so that the soldiers can beg for thieves for the country, but the dragon king of Weishui has not yet appeared, but Liu Bei, the hidden dragon, has come!
It turned out that Liu Bei commanded 30,000 troops, and had been stationed on the border of Xuzhou, watching the success or failure of the Cao and Yuan armies, he was good at seeing the wind and rudder, but he didn't expect that in the battle of 'Tianwang Peak', Cao's army won more with less and defeated Yuan Shu's 250,000 army in one fell swoop, so that the princes of the world were shocked to drop their jaws!
After getting the news, Liu Bei was also surprised, but he was calm by nature, and waited for a few more days, and when he was sure that Yuan Shu had been trapped in a lonely city and could no longer return to the sky, he ignored the wind and rain and raised troops to 'go south to beg for thieves', and by the way, he also got some benefits for himself!
"Big Ear Ah Fu is here?" In the big tent, Cao Cao was discussing military affairs with a group of generals, and when he heard Liu Bei coming, the traitorous male groaned slightly, and then ordered to open the camp gate and line up to greet him!
As for the nickname 'Big Ear Ah Fu', since someone inadvertently said it, it has become the unanimously recognized title of Liu Bei by Cao Jun!
"Woo! …… Whining! ”
The horn sounded, the camp gate was wide open, and on both sides of the neat array of thousands of ironclad troops, Cao Cao put out all the honor guards of the prime minister, Qingluo umbrella cover, golden gourd axe, tiger guards, with a full camp of generals, solemnly welcomed Liu Bei's arrival.
"Xuande Gong! Farewell to Xuzhou, the old man who thinks about it is so bitter! Cao Cao laughed and stepped forward, grabbed Liu Bei's hand, shh
"Thank you Prime Minister, everything is fine with Xuande!" Liu Bei still looks so gentle and elegant, from his face, you can never see joy, anger, or any other feelings, joy and anger are invisible, he is talking about people like him!
"The rain is too heavy, this is not a place to talk, follow the old man into the tent to drink and feast!" Cao Cao is the opposite, his expression is often laughing, or crying, belonging to the category of emotional, but no, when he laughs, it is not necessarily happy, and when he cries, it is not necessarily sad, no one can guess who is true and who is false!
"Prime Minister, please!"
"Hehe, Lord Governor, please!"
It was another humble, and finally Cao and Liu walked hand in hand, side by side, the generals in the camp, led by Xiao Yi, were clustered on the left, and the people of Xuzhou on the other side were headed by the general Guan Yu, holding a sword, protecting his eldest brother inch by inch!
In fact, Cao Cao welcomed guests so seriously, firstly, because among the princes in the world, Liu Bei was the first to come to help in the war, and his posture was higher, but also to show others and increase the prestige of the court!
Moreover, when he was in Xuzhou, it was this 'big ear Ah Fu' that made him suffer a big loss, and after that, Cao Cao did not hold a grudge, but regarded Liu Bei as a real opponent in his heart.
In the big tent, Cao and Liu sat down as guests, and the rest of the people sat on both sides, entertained with their own wine and delicacies, except Guan Yu, with long hair in his hand and a sword in his hand, standing behind Liu Bei, with a pair of Danfeng eyes looking proudly at the generals in Cao's camp, only when he saw Xiao Yi, he would show a little jealous gaze.
The third brother Zhang Fei stayed in Xuzhou to ensure that the nest was fine, and Guan Yu's task was to protect the safety of the eldest brother, after all, the Cao and Liu families had sword soldiers at the beginning, who knows if this banquet is a 'Hongmen banquet', but the eldest brother Liu Bei insisted on coming, and he had to guard it with a sword!
"I don't know who Xuande Gong set up behind him?" Seeing a bare-faced, long-haired, majestic general standing there, Cao Cao couldn't help but interrogate.
Because of the fact that 'Wen Jiu beheaded Huaxiong, Tiger Prison Guan vs. Lu Bu' was all robbed by Xiao Yi, and the second master Guan, who should have been famous all over the world, is still unknown, but gold will always shine, that mighty appearance, that kind of arrogant momentum, no one dares to despise Guan Yu in the slightest.
"Second brother Guan Yunchang!" Liu Bei just said Guan Yu's name, but he didn't mention the official position at all, Liu, Guan, Zhang, the trinity, swear to live and die together, in the eyes of their brothers, official positions and identities are all external things, whether Liu Bei is a pastor in Xuzhou, or a straw shoe seller, he is the eldest brother, and the other two are the same, only brothers, no generals!
The ancients said: The master is the king, the friend is the bully, and the apprentice is dead, and Liu Bei can dominate one side in this troubled world, which is inseparable from the help he gets.
"The real strong man, come here, take the golden cup, the old man wants to pour wine for the strong man!" History has come full circle, or returned to the original point, Cao Cao was impressed by Guan Yu's appearance and momentum, and had a good impression from the bottom of his heart, which can only be said to be an eye, hating a person for no reason, and appreciating a person for no reason, all need a reason.
As soon as the order was given, an attendant immediately took the golden cup, and Cao Cao poured a full glass of wine with his own hands, and was about to step forward to hold the cup for Guan Yu, but a big hand suddenly stopped him and took the golden cup away!
"The prime minister pours wine, and the matter of this cup will be handed over to the end of the world!" It was Xiao Yi who made the shot, just like Guan Yu always protected Liu Bei, he also looked at Cao Cao intently, although this was in his own camp, but there was no absolute in everything, Guan Yu was the tiger general of the world, Liu Bei was the hero of the world, how could he deal with them if he was not careful.
"Okay, let Xiao Lang take care of the old man!" If someone else snatched the gold cup from him, Cao Cao would have been furious, but Xiao Yi, the family, it doesn't matter, and he also knows that this is a precaution, after all, as the commander of the three armies, it is unwise to rashly walk into the front of a strange general.
"General Yun Chang, don't come unharmed, please!" Others regard Guan Yu as a tiger, but Xiao Yi doesn't feel that way, at least he is also a lion, so he strode forward, sent the golden cup with both hands, and took the time to glance at Liu Bei with his cold gaze, so that the wine glass in the hand of this 'big-eared Ah Fu' shook slightly!
If Cao Ying's side is a little jealous of Guan Yu, then Liu Bei's side is deeply afraid of Xiao Yi, 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang', no one in the world knows, since his debut, he has been invincible and invincible, and all the battlefield warriors have folded in his hands, and even the human head has been made into a 'skull cup', as long as he thinks of this, the princes of the world will feel cold in the back of his head and his neck is sore~~
"Thank you for the wine!" Guan Yu is arrogant, who can be divided into whom, looking at Xiao Yi's eyes that are as bright as stars and as dark as a black hole', he is also nervous, and forcibly straightens his waist, only then does he stabilize his footing, and then take the cup with both hands!
"Smack!"
Two pairs of powerful big hands touched the gold cup at the same time, and then froze there, the toaster was still smiling, and the person receiving the wine was also respectful, but the wine glass just stopped in the air, and did not move at all, but the faces of the two changed slightly, Guan Yu's jujube red face began to swell, a pair of Danfeng eyes also opened, and Xiao Yi's little black face became blue, and the dark light flashed in his eyes~~
"General Yun Chang, please!"
"Thank you, Grand Duke!"
In a moment, the two of them took half a step back at the same time, and their faces returned to normal, and then Guan Yu drank all the wine and returned the golden cup, Xiao Yi also smiled and returned to the original seat, and then put the golden cup on Cao Cao's case, it seemed that everything was normal!
"Let's go!"
As a result, the golden cup did not stand at all, and fell directly on the table, made a few turns, and fell at Cao Cao's feet.
At this time, I found out that the three-legged gold cup, which was originally good, was now left with one leg supported there, and the remaining two were all twisted and deformed, and even the body of the cup was deflated, and two clear finger imprints were deeply imprinted on it!
"Shhh Hiss! ”
All the generals are martial arts masters, and naturally know the power of it, the gold cup, in fact, is not pure gold, because the quality of gold is relatively soft and easy to wear, so when people cast gold utensils, they must add a certain amount of silver to it, and the hardness of the alloy will increase several times and become strong and abnormal!
Although the golden cup is hard, the generals are conceited that if they stand up and have enough strength, they can still pinch it, but like Xiao Yi and Guan Yu, they can do all this quietly and between toasts, but it is very difficult, not to mention that they have left such a deep imprint, and the divine power of the two can be imagined!
"Great gold cup, who wins!" Cao Cao said a pun, then picked up the poor golden cup, put it into his arms, and then looked at Guan Yu's eyes, in addition to appreciation, there was also a trace of jealousy, he understood, Xiao Yi was right, such a peerless tiger general, who would dare to approach?
However, Cao Cao is still very pleased in his heart, Liu Bei is related to Yun Chang, and the old man also has a 'ghost face Xiao Lang', his martial arts are comparable, and his strategy is much better, which is given by God......
Cao Cao first commended Liu Bei's righteous act of 'helping the war and fighting the thief', and guaranteed that after the army returned to the dynasty in victory, he would be on the table and give Liu Bei the post of 'Xuzhou Mu'!
After all, Liu Bei's official position was given to him by Tao Qian, and he was not recognized by the imperial court.
Since they are here to help in the war, they naturally have to have a camp, and Cao Cao divided a defense line for Liu Bei's 30,000 horses on the periphery of Shouchun City, and beside them, it happened to be Xiao Yi's camp, this arrangement can be called a wonderful pen!
