Last time, it was said that Liu Bei informed Guan Yu and Zhang Fei of the results of Liang Xu's divination, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were pulled into the team very smoothly.

Although Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have confirmed their joining, with the addition of the Liang brothers, Liang San, Zhao Feng, and Liu Bei's own family, there are only a dozen or twenty people, and it is not enough to stuff the Yellow Turban Army into the teeth. So if you want to become an army, you have to get Liu Yan's support. This is the most difficult thing for Liu Bei.

Liu Yan invited him to form a volunteer army before, but he refused, and at that time, there was a rift between Liu Yan and Liu Bei. What kind of onion is he Liu Bei? is still full of garlic, dare to refuse him Liu Yan? He Liu Yan is a member of the royal family, and Liu Bei heard that it is also, but the relationship between Liu Bei and the current emperor Liu Hong is not as close as Liu Yan, although Liu Yan is not much closer, and he does not even have a title, but Liu Bei is not even an official, he was still a straw sandal seller when he was a child, how can he compare with Liu Taishou.

But Liu Bei still refused, so Liu Yan was very angry, and the consequences were serious.

Liu Bei went to see Liu Yan, but Liu Yan closed the door and disappeared.

Liu Bei couldn't, so he could only rely on himself to form his own volunteer army.

Liu Bei summoned Liang Xu, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei and told Liu Yan about his refusal to see him.

Guan Yu was a little sullen, because he was thinking about making meritorious contributions, and now that the government is not doing it himself, no matter how many yellow scarves he kills, he will not have any credit at all.

Zhang Fei didn't care what others thought, so he shouted first: "If you don't see it, you won't see it, we can kill those thieves ourselves!" "Speaking arrogantly, I didn't think about the balance of power between the two sides at all, maybe Zhang Fei disdained the comparison.

But Liang Xu is still very sober, although he wants to kill that group of murderers, but he doesn't want to send them to death, if his own manpower is insufficient, he feels that it is better to quit, so he wants to figure out the situation first.

So Liang Xu asked, "Brother Xuande, how many people are there on our side?" ”

Liu Bei frowned and said, "Plus the family in the house, it's about early twenties." But they may not join. Liu Bei meant that he would not force his family to follow him to the battlefield, because the strength of this battle was too different, and it was like a moth to a fire.

Zhang Fei shouted again: "Do they dare to agree? I'll kill him first! As he spoke, he raised his fist the size of a copper hammer and continued, "I also want to count Lao Zhang's family!" ”

"Uncle may not agree." Liu Bei is not optimistic that Zhang Fei can pull his family's family, after all, the Zhang family is not Zhang Fei's master.

Guan Yu finally broke the silence and asked Liu Bei: "Xuande, can you borrow troops from the patriarch?" Although the military merits seem to have flew, Guan Yu doesn't want his friends to take risks, he doesn't say that he wants to quit, so he is also trying to find a way to close the gap between the enemy and us.

Liu Bei was not sure about this question. He originally planned to borrow troops from the patriarch and ask for sponsorship from his wealthy merchant friends, but these were all based on Liu Yan's permission for him to establish a volunteer army, and now without the appointment of the government, Liu Bei didn't know if these things could succeed.

So Liu Bei just replied a little helplessly: "I'll try it." ”

Please support the genuine version of the book friends, please go to QQ to read or any other website under China Literature to support the author, I am very grateful.

Liang Xu thought that when Liu Bei raised troops in history, didn't there be rich businessmen who sent money, food, and weapons? If you have money and food, are you still afraid that you will have no soldiers? How did this come to be? Is it because of the government's appointment?

So Liang Xu came up with a bad idea: "If it doesn't work, just find Gongsun Taishou." Brother Xuande, aren't you the junior brother of Gongsun Taishou? ”

"Bogui's side will not refuse, but Zhuojun is not under his control, and we have formed a volunteer army over there, and we can't get by." Liu Bei vetoed Liang Xu's proposal.

……

In the end, everyone didn't have any good ideas, so they could only let Liu Bei go to the patriarch to try their luck first. But everyone didn't know that Zhang Fei also decided to persuade his father to support him to start the army.

After the meeting was dismissed, everyone went about their jobs.

Liu Bei went to the patriarch's house and told the patriarch that he wanted to form a volunteer army by himself.

Patriarch Liu Yuanqi (Liu Yuanqi is a relative of Liu Bei, Yuanqi should be his word, the name was not found) did not agree, although his branch of the Liu family is also the descendant of the founding emperor Liu Bang, but in their generation, not only is the relationship with the emperor estranged, but also the talent withered, and it has long been not as beautiful as their ancestor Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan Jing.

Liu Sheng is the half-brother of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, no matter how absurd and unscrupulous, he is also a prince. But Liu Yuanqi and Liu Hong can't get along, and it's already very good to be able to fund his son and Liu Bei to study with Lu Zhi.

Now Liu Bei is still thinking about taking his clansmen to the battlefield, how can the patriarch agree? Even if Liu Bei said anything about benevolence and righteousness, the patriarch was unmoved. In the final analysis, because there is no appointment from the government, even if the Liu family kills more than 100 enemies, it will not have any credit, not only can they not honor their ancestors, but they also have to risk the casualties of the children of the clan.

Liu Bei walked out of the patriarch's house in disgrace, and as expected, found nothing. But he didn't give up, and he decided to try his luck with his friends.

The next day, Liu Bei planned to visit Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping.

Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping were both wealthy businessmen in Changshan County. Su Shuang is a miner, and there are many mines at home. And Zhang Shiping is a horse seller, and he often runs outside the grassland.

When the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, Su Shuang fled from the countryside to Zhuo County, where he was a son of a family, a large landowner, and also had a house in Zhuo County. And Zhang Shiping was doing business with the Xianbei people in Youbeiping at that time, so now he is stranded in Zhuojun and can't go back. Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang have close business contacts, and Zhang Shiping is now living in Su Shuang's house.

Liu Bei arrived at Su Shuang's house, and was told by the people of Su Mansion that Master Su had gone out, saying that he was going to his own rice shop in the city. The current war situation is uncertain, and the price of grain changes greatly, and it is easy to understand that Su Shuang is keeping an eye on his rice shop.

And Zhang Shiping started from scratch, unlike the Su family, who accumulated so much land, so he stayed in the Su Mansion.

Since he came, Liu Bei decided to talk to Zhang Shiping first.

Liu Bei directly explained his intention to Zhang Shiping, but was also rejected by Zhang Shiping.

Zhang Shiping's reason is simple, he has not suffered much damage because of the Yellow Turban Army. Although he was trapped in Zhuo County, it was also because Liu Yan knew that he had money, so he was forced to stay by Liu Yan, and his horse was also detained. Moreover, he had already received a report from his family that he was safe, and knew that the Yellow Turban Army did not embarrass his family who stayed in Zhending County. Therefore, Zhang Shiping did not have a bad opinion of the Yellow Turban Army, but had a lot of opinions about the imperial court.

In the previous chapter, I obviously saw that I was going to raise troops, but because of Liang Xu's bad influence, now I see that Liu Bei is about to lose the opportunity to stand out.

Before the protagonist has begun to form his own power, history has begun to be distorted?

Although he has the eye of heaven, God doesn't need to leave a window for Liang Xu, so he immediately closes the door, right? How else does this make the protagonist play?
