The trees kept chirping, the scorching sun was like a fire, and at the junction of Xuzhou and Yanzhou, a group of about 1,000 soldiers and horses went all the way to the west. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Big brother, this time my brother rushed to Luoyang to beg for thieves, but there are thousands of miles to go, and I'm afraid that the grain and grass will not be good."

The man who spoke was a bearded man, about twenty-five years old, riding on a horse, carrying a spear in his hand, with a swallow-jawed tiger beard, a mighty appearance, and a voice like thunder.

"Yide, the heroes of the world gathered in Luoyang to crusade against Dong Zhuo, how could there be no supply of grain and grass? If there is no money on the way, I will borrow some from the county. ”

The reply was a middle-aged man in his thirties, with long ears and long hands, dignified appearance, and bright eyes, who seemed to belong to the kind of person who was moody and invisible, and quite a bit of pride, which made people can't help but make friends at first sight.

The bearded man looked to the other side again: "Second brother, Luoyang and Hedong are close at hand, the second brother has been out for more than ten years, this time you can go home to visit your sister-in-law." ”

"yes, it's been ten years."

The burly and tall man on the left stroked his long hair under his chin, slightly distracted, his height was nine feet, holding a long knife, he could be described as standing out from the crowd, his face was slightly red, lying silkworm eyebrows, Danfeng eyes, quite majestic.

In this way, Zhang Liao is here, I am afraid that he will immediately call out the names of three people, Liu Bei, Liu Xuande, Guan Yu, Guan Yunchang, Zhang Fei, Zhang Yide!

The weather was extremely hot, the three of them led the team for a ride, they were all sweating profusely, and when they arrived at a forest, Liu Bei saw that there was a stream in front of him, and immediately said: "Let's rest for an hour, Xianhe can't bear it in such a hurry." ”

A scribe who followed them smiled and said, "Hehe, don't worry, my lord, I can still eat." ”

This person is Jian Yong, who followed Liu Bei when he was a teenager and has been taking care of his affairs.

The group immediately went to rest under the forest, and many soldiers went to the stream to drink water and wash their faces.

"Assemble quickly!" Liu Bei let out a deep sigh, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei hurriedly reorganized the army.

Although the equipment of these thousand soldiers was poor, they moved quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they were ready for battle without the slightest panic. They came all the way from Qingzhou, and they had already encountered many bandits, and the soldiers had long been accustomed to it, and the two commanders Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had the courage of ten thousand people, which made them full of confidence.

But the soldiers and horses who came over were surprisingly many, at a glance, there were three or five thousand, Liu Bei and the three of them looked solemn, but when they saw the leading generals from a distance, Liu Bei's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but show joy on his face, and said: "Yun Chang, Yide, look at that person is the captain of Biqiu?" ”

Guan Yu squinted his eyes, stroked his beard and nodded, "Yes, it is the Captain of Biqiu." ”

It turned out that the person was the former general He Jin's commander Qiu Yi, who was a fellow villager in Hedong, and Guan Yu was a fellow villager. Last year, Biqiu Yi went to Danyang to recruit troops on the order of He Jin, and met Liu Bei on the way, so he accompanied him, and later met a thief in Xiapi, reasonably begged for a thief, and made some merits, Biqiu Yi asked Liu Bei for a position in Xiami County.

Liu Bei hurriedly said: "Since you are the captain of Biqiu, you must not be rude, and the three of us will hurry up to greet you." ”

At the same time, the general who led the team also saw the three of them, and couldn't help laughing: "Xuande, Yunchang, Yide, don't come to harm?" ”

When a few people met here, they were naturally happy, and after sitting down to reminisce about the past, Biqiu Yi asked, "Xuande, why is it here?" ”

Liu Bei sighed: "Dong Zhuo rebelled, hijacked the Son of Heaven, poisoned the people, my brother was determined to beg the thief, originally followed the Jiao Thorn Shi to the west, but sighed that the Jiao Thorn Shi did not understand military affairs, every time he fought, he only knew to ask God for divination, which really disappointed my brother. ”

Biqiu Yi couldn't help laughing: "So, just go together!" I was originally in Xuzhou to suppress thieves, and this time I also responded to the call of Yuan Meng's lord to crusade against Dong Zhuo! ”

Liu Bei couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, the three of his brothers had a meager reputation, and they were afraid that they would be isolated in Luoyang, but they didn't expect to meet Biqiu Yi, and they could be regarded as having a companion.

Between the words of several people, they unconsciously mentioned a name that is now resounding in Kanto, Zhang Liao.

Biqiu Yi sighed: "Wenyuan was born in Bingzhou, originally under the command of the general with me, last year the general sent five people to go out to recruit troops, Bao Yuncheng, Wang Gongjie, Zhang Zhishu, Zhang Wenyuan and me, among the five, Wenyuan is the youngest, but twenty years old, and now the four of me are among the crusade against Dong Zhuo, but Zhang Wenyuan served Dong Zhuo, and broke into such a big reputation, defeating the Kwantung princes Hanoi and the army of sour jujube, it is really unbelievable." ”

Liu Bei's color changed slightly, they only heard Zhang Liao's name, but they didn't expect Zhang Liao to be in his early twenties, and he had made such a prestige, but they didn't know what kind of demeanor he should be.

Guan Yu stroked his beard and sighed: "Such a character is not extraordinary, it's a pity." ”

Zhang Fei said loudly: "Such a traitor who aids in the abuse, and when he sees a certain person in Luoyang, he stabs him to death with a spear!" Chop off Dong Zhuo's dog head again! ”

Biqiu Yi just sighed.

……

In the south of the Luoyang Basin, in the county capital of Nanyang County and Luyang County, the general Yuan Shu looked at Sun Jian and said: "Wentai, now that Kong Ling, the assassin of Yuzhou, has been killed, I have already praised you as the assassin of Yuzhou, this time the princes of all walks of life have responded, and they will inevitably fight with Dong Zhuo. ”

"Yes!" Sun Jian responded with a fist.

Yuan Shu is far above Sun Jian in terms of position, fame and family background, just like Cao Cao is attached to Yuan Shao and Zhang Miao, Sun Jian chose to attach himself to Yuan Shu, which is the helplessness of low background in this era. Moreover, Sun Jian even killed Jingzhou Assassin Shi and Nanyang Taishou, and there was no other choice, without Yuan Shu's protection, he was afraid that he would be questioned by other princes.

Sun Jian was about to withdraw to prepare for the whole army, but Yuan Shu suddenly gritted his teeth and said: "Wentai, this time to attack Luoyang, it is necessary to find a thief, named Huaxiong, who is the governor under Hu Zhen, if you meet him, you can't kill him, you have to capture him alive, I will personally deal with this thief!" ”

Sun Jian saw a somewhat hideous face, although he was a little puzzled, but he responded: "If you meet this person, you will be captured!" ”

……

After Zhang Liao received Dong Zhuo's order, he did not hesitate, crossed the mountain, and rushed all the way to Bi Guiyuan, constantly pondering the current situation in his mind on the way.

In fact, in the original history, the first rebellion of the Kwantung princes did not pose any threat to Luoyang. did not arrive at the so-called Tiger Prison Pass, let alone the three British battles against Lu Bu, Jihou Gongsun Zan has always been in Youzhou, Liu Bei has not yet gone to take refuge in this senior brother, but served as a secret in Beihai Kingdom, Qingzhou.

Among the original princes of the North Road, Wang Kuang, the Taishou of Hanoi, was defeated by Dong Zhuo, and Yuan Shaotun, the Taishou of the Bohai Sea, did not move in Hanoi and did not engage Dong Zhuo.

Among the sour jujube princes on the East Road, Cao Baoxi was defeated, and the other princes dispersed after eating all the grain and grass in June, and Liu Dai killed Qiao Mao.

Yuan Shu, who was stationed in Luyang in Nanlu, went south to occupy Nanyang after Sun Jian killed Zhang Zhi, the Taishou of Nanyang, and ordered Sun Jian to assassinate Yuzhou and garrison Luyang, as a precursor, Sun Jian only engaged Dong Zhuo for the first time in the winter of that year.

But now, under the impetus of Zhang Liao, the direction of history has begun to shift.

After the first defeat, the Kwantung princes were stimulated by Zhang Liao's hatred of the enemy, coupled with Guo Tu's lobbying and Yuan Shao's unwillingness after the unexpected defeat, but in a few months, they quickly launched the second crusade against Dong Zhuo!

At this time, Sun Jian had just killed Nanyang Taishou Zhang Zhi and rushed to Luyang to attach Yuan Shu. (To be continued.) )
