Zhao Yun caught Lou Ban, the son of Qiu Liju, Lord Wuhuan, this was unlucky, met Zhao Yun, and let Zhao Yun pick the horse with one shot! Liu Bei asked Zilong to take a credit first, and then reward him after the battle.

Xi Zhicai offered a plan: "My lord, I have a plan, that is, I can't wipe out Wu Huan, but I can also make him die halfway." ”

Xuande was overjoyed and said: "Will the plan be released?" ”

Xi Zhicai said: "The combat power of the Wuhuan cavalry is not as strong as how strong, and the people who rely on it are just the cavalry who come and go like the wind, and if they can fight, they will fight, and if they can't, they will go, and they will be uncertain, so they can be troubled." ”

Liu Bei nodded yes, and Xi Zhicai continued: "If the lord asks Lou Ban, the son of Qiu Liju, the lord of Wuhuan, to be cut down in front of everyone. He must have been furious, and came to storm the city. Can he not attack the city, even if he can suppress the anger, he has to attack the city, otherwise this Qiu Liju will not have the prestige to dominate Wuhuan. When Qiu Liju was under the fortified city, the veteran soldiers of the division were tired, and the lord attacked him with his soldiers, why worry about not being able to win a complete victory. ”

It's really ruthless, he cut off someone's own son in front of his father.

Liu Bei secretly thought in his heart that the drama in history was a short-lived person. According to superstition, I am afraid that it is also related to this person's scheme, and most of this kind of sinister and vicious scheme has hurt Yin virtue and lost his life.

For example, Zhuge Liang. After playing the fire rattan armor soldier once, don't you sigh that you will definitely lose your life?

Shaking his head, Liu Bei expelled this thought from his mind. The heart said, this is feudal superstition, we can't believe this. Xi Zhicai's life span is short, and that's because he is not in good health, and it has nothing to do with other messy things.

I remember that there were two famous doctors in the Three Kingdoms era. One is Zhang Zhongjing, and the other is Hua Tuo. They are all the kind of famous doctors who have the ability to bring the dead back to life. In the future, if there is a chance, recruit these two people and give Xi Zhicai a good recuperation, maybe Xi Zhicai will live a long life.

Of course, Liu Bei himself also needs this kind of famous doctor, in case he has any serious illness, someone will treat him, so there is no need to say more

Thinking of this, Liu Bei ordered the captured Wuhuan captives to bring two of them. He also ordered someone to press the Lou Ban up, and when he came to the Lou Ban, Liu Bei was interrogated.

It's just that Liu Bei looks at this building class, with yellow hair and blue eyes, isn't this just blonde hair and blue eyes, why does this building class look so crooked. I don't know if cutting him will surprise other friends and cause crooked incidents. Liu Bei secretly complained to himself, it's not the right time for you to come, this era is not the era of preferential treatment of crooked nuts and first-class foreigners after 1,800 years.

There is a saying in modern times. It is said that the body of the Caucasian race is taller and stronger, why can't the yellow race be defeated in the era of cold weapons.

Now, from the Wuhuan people, the reason why modern Caucasians are tall and strong is only because they are rich. Just like China's post-80s, they are generally taller than their predecessors. And the post-90s generation is taller than the post-80s generation. It was nothing more than that the Chinese at that time began to have money and could eat enough.

Caucasians developed earlier, so they seem to be taller and stronger than yellow people. In fact, if you can't eat, whether you are yellow or white, they are all the same thin and weak.

Lou Ban ran for half the night, and was shot by Zhao Yun again, and was beaten half to death, and he was already scared to the point of a nervous breakdown. After seeing Liu Bei, he immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, just begging for his life. Liu Bei asked him anything, he confessed, that attitude was called a good, and in the end, even Liu Bei was a little embarrassed to cut him with Xi Zhicai's strategy.

"Do you two know him?" Liu Bei asked the two Wuhuan captives to be brought up, let them recognize Lou Ban, and then asked. The two men were dark-haired, but they also had some Caucasian features on their faces.

Seeing that both of them recognized this person as Lou Ban, the son of Lord Wuhuan Qiu Liju, Liu Bei said: "Okay, since you two recognize this person clearly, I will let you go to see Qiu Liju." Tell him that his son, Louban, is in my hands. As long as he surrenders to the imperial court and kills Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun, the two traitors. Not only will I let his son go back, but I will also play the Son of Heaven, and give him a great reward, which can give him 500,000 gold, silver, and silk. The two of you told Qiu Liju that I am a member of the Han family, and when today's son calls me my brother, I rely on it very much, and what I say still has a lot of weight in the court. ”

After saying this, Liu Bei suddenly felt a little embarrassed. The heart said how can I be like a bandit, I kidnapped someone's son as a meat ticket, threatened others, and teared up the ticket if I didn't listen to Lao Tzu. In this way, I will not become Xiang Yu, I have always taken Liu Bang as an example. But I must not learn from Xiang Yu, let go of the meat ticket that I finally tied up, if Qiu Liju dares to learn from Liu Bang, I dare to cook his son and give him a bowl of soup to drink.

These two people received Liu Bei's words and hurriedly went to Qiu Liju to report.

Taking advantage of this time, Liu Bei personally led someone to escort Lou Ban to Guan Yu, explained in detail to him Xi Zhicai's strategy, and agreed on contact signals for various situations. In the end, 800 archers were assigned to Guan Yu's command, and a lot of fire oil and other fire-igniting materials were collected and delivered to Guan Yu, and then he returned to the plain.

At this time, after Qiu Liju received Liu Bei's letter of kidnapping, he also fell into a dilemma, at this moment the Wuhuan people are fighting with Gongsun Zhan, speaking of which is also the bad luck of the Wuhuan people, if it is just an ordinary entry to grab something, the court and the emperor may not necessarily be in this stormy time. However, they followed Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun to rebel, and the imperial court sent Gongsun Chan to conquest, and added the title of cavalry captain to Gongsun Zhan.

Otherwise, how dare Liu Bei fight against 100,000 cavalry with the strength of a county, what if the friendly army he encounters is the "Guanning Iron Cavalry" that has turned into the wind.

It is said that at the beginning, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty took Sikong Zhang Wen as the general of the chariot cavalry, and took Jinwu Yuan Peng as the deputy to fight the rebellion in Liangzhou. Zhang Wen requisitioned 3,000 cavalry from Youzhou to assist in the battle, and the cavalry was a cavalry carefully selected from the Wuhuan people. Zhang Chun also went out with the team, and before setting off, he and Zhang Wen applied to be the commander of the cavalry, but Zhang Wen used Gongsun Zhan to command the cavalry.

Gongsun Zhan, like Liu Bei, is also a student of Lu Zhi, both humanities and martial arts, and Liu Yu's subordinate has a man named Wei Mei who once said: "Zan is talented in civil and military affairs." So persuaded Liu Yu that even if Gongsun Chan had any minor mistakes, he should try to tolerate one or two, but unfortunately Liu Yu didn't listen, and was finally cut down by Gongsun Chan.

At the beginning, Liaoxi County guarded Liu Qi, who broke the law and was demoted to the south for his crimes, and Gongsun Zhan, as an official, drove for Taishou. When Gongsun Chan left, he paid tribute to his ancestors, "saying that he was a son of man in the past, and now he is a minister, and he is a servant in the south of the country, and he is afraid that he will not return it, and his ancestors will resign from this" and then worship and rise up generously, and the people who see it are very embarrassed. Liu Taishou was pardoned and came back halfway, but Gongsun Chan became famous for it.

After coming back, Gongsun Zhan made a long history of Liaodong, and once took dozens of retinues to ride out of the fortress, and met hundreds of Xianbei horsemen on the way. With a tenfold difference in strength, Gongsun Chan retreated into an abandoned castle and mobilized his entourage: "If you don't take the initiative to attack, you will be killed", so he personally took a double-headed spear and took the lead in killing. Everyone worked desperately, and actually killed dozens of people in one go, and finally lost half of his men and rushed him back. Xianbei people take this as a warning, and they no longer dare to easily cross the barrier. Gongsun Zhan was promoted to the county magistrate of Zhuo County.

Because of this incident, Gongsun Chan became famous, and later made many military exploits and gained a firm foothold in Youzhou. And Gongsun Zhan fought against the Hu people all the year round and accumulated rich experience in cavalry combat.

It can be said that Zhang Wen used Gongsun Chan to command the assault cavalry, and he had no selfish intentions, it was entirely for the sake of Gongsun Zhan's military talent, but Zhang Chun didn't understand it and held a grudge against him.

It just so happened that a strange thing happened in Luoyang at this time.

Zhang Chun is more superstitious, and it should be said that there are few people at this time who are not superstitious. At that time, a woman in Luoyang gave birth to a deformed child, and a baby had two heads, probably a conjoined baby. As a result, Zhang Chun believed that this was an omen that there would be two emperors in the world, and it happened that the Wuhuan people were far away from their hometowns to go on the expedition, and Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty did not pay military salaries, and most of them fled. Zhang Chun secretly discussed with Zhang Ju, the former Taishan Taishou who was also in the army: "Today, Wuhuan is on the side, and everyone is willing to be chaotic, and the thieves in Liangzhou are rising, and the court can't ban it." and Luoyang* gave birth to two children, this Han Zuo is exhausted, and there are two lords in the world. If the son and I lead the Wuhuan people to raise troops, we can set a great cause. ”

The two hit it off, and in June of the fourth year of Zhongping, Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun connected with Qiu Liju, the leader of the Wuhuan tribe, and raised troops to rebel in Jixian County and plundered Jidi. Wu Huan Captain Gong Mu Chou, Youbei Taishou Liu Zheng, Liaodong Taishou Yang Zhong and others were all killed. The rebels numbered more than 100,000 people. Zhang Ju then proclaimed himself emperor, General Zhang Chunmitian, and King Anding. The two immediately sent a proclamation to the world, asking Emperor Ling to abdicate and welcome Zhang Ju as emperor.

The imperial court led the army to counterattack with Gongsun Zhan as the cavalry captain. The two sides have been fighting since last year, and at this moment, the main forces of the two sides are facing each other in Shimenshan, and Zhang Juqiu, Liju and others feel that the frontal battlefield cannot open up the situation, so they want to open up the flank and rear battlefield. What's more important is that the looted things have been eaten, Gongsun Zhan has the Eastern Han Dynasty court to provide him with food and salary, Zhang Ju, Qiu Liju and others belong to no logistics operations, they can only come out to rob, this is why there is Kou Luoqing, You, and, Hebei four states.

As a matter of fact, this kind of fighting method of opening up the second battlefield, if it is a strong attack on the weak, it is no problem, and it can make the enemy take care of one thing and lose the other. However, Zhang Ju and others did not have this strength, so they committed a taboo in the soldiers, and divided their troops to advance, but gave Gongsun Zhan a chance to break through.

Therefore, Liu Bei broke the main force that Lou Ban came out to plunder, and Qiu Liju couldn't draw enough troops to attack Liu Bei for a while, but he couldn't do it if he didn't fight.

Not to mention that Qiu Liju's biological son Lou Ban is in Liu Bei's hands, even if he is willing to give up his son, he will not have enough prestige to dominate his subordinates.

As for selling Zhang Ju, Zhang Chun's option is not impossible. But it can't be done now, in history, the Wuhuan people were able to sell these two goods, because Gongsun Zan had already defeated them at that time, and the troops of Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun were lost, and the Wuhuan people were difficult to support alone, so Liu Yu could succeed in recruiting them. To put it bluntly, Liu Yu seems to be the Li Shiqi who persuaded the King of Qi to surrender during the dispute between Chu and Han, while Gongsun Zhan is the Han Xin who really frightened the King of Qi and surrendered.

Now the forces of Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun have not been defeated, and they are not under Qiu Liju.

However, Qiu Liju is Lord Wuhuan after all, although Wuhuan is divided into three parts, but Qiu Liju's clan family accounts for more than seventy percent of the entire Wuhuan strength, so he easily coerced Su Fuyan and Wuyan, and ordered these two to send troops to attack Liu Bei with him. He also handed over most of his army to his nephew, the commander of Tadon, and then he personally gathered more than 30,000 men and horses to plunder, and went straight to the plain.
