Chapter 2 Liu Zhang Goes to the Banquet
The second chapter is delivered, and there will be a third chapter later.
Pang Tong came over with a smile.
"Shi Yuan, is you so happy?" Liu Bei asked.
"Lord, I just got the news from Yang Huai Gaopei, Liu Zhang came to **** in person, this is a great opportunity! The lord only needs to ambush a group of sword and axe hands, put on a Hongmen banquet, and capture Liu Zhang! As long as Liu Zhang dies, Yizhou will inevitably have no leader, and then the lord can directly kill Chengdu! As long as Chengdu is occupied, it is only a matter of time before the rest of the places are annexed! Pang Tong said with a fluttering eyebrow.
Listening to Pang Tong's words, Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, and it wasn't until a stick of incense was passed that Liu Bei said: "Shiyuan, this plan is absolutely impossible!" Liu Jiyu is my fellow clansman, if I kill him in order to seize Yizhou, I am afraid it will be unkind! ”
Next to him, Liu Chan had already captured all of Liu Bei's expressions, and when Pang Tong proposed to set up a Hongmen banquet to kill Liu Bei just now, Liu Bei was really tempted, Liu Chan could even feel that Liu Bei was about to agree, but I don't know what's wrong, in the end, Liu Bei still suppressed the impulse in his heart, and until now Liu Chan can still feel the hesitation and reluctance in Liu Bei's heart.
Hearing Liu Bei's refusal, Pang Tong was stunned, and then immediately understood Liu Bei's intentions, so he asked: "The lord is worried that if he kills Liu Zhang, Yizhou will be unconvinced?" ”
Liu Bei nodded, shook his head again, and said, "Shiyuan, this plan is unbenevolent, don't mention it again!" If I want to win Yizhou, I must take it with real knives and guns, and it is inappropriate to use such methods! ”
Hearing Liu Bei mention benevolence and righteousness twice, Liu Chan finally understood what Liu Bei was thinking.
Liu Bei has lived most of his life and has always been known for his benevolence and righteousness. A good reputation is Liu Bei's biggest advantage, and it is precisely because of his good reputation that Liu Bei can gather so many talented people around him, and because of his good reputation, every time Liu Bei is like an unbeatable Xiaoqiang, someone will take him in every time he fails, leaving the capital to make a comeback.
Look at Liu Bei's glorious history, since he became the county commander of Pingyuan, he has taken refuge in Gongsun Zhan, Tao Qian, Lu Bu, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and Liu Biao.
All of this is inseparable from Liu Bei's flaunting benevolence and righteousness all day long.
It can be said that in terms of reputation, Liu Bei is far stronger than Cao Cao and Sun Quan, and even Cao Cao, who hates Liu Bei to the core, really can't find fault with Liu Bei's character.
Liu Bei's reputation has taken him decades to accumulate, if Liu Zhang is killed by a Hongmen banquet today, I am afraid that the reputation of benevolence and righteousness established for decades will be ruined, so Liu Bei would rather send troops to attack Yizhou than do anything that damages his reputation.
……
Fucheng is not very far from Chengdu, and a few days later, Liu Zhang came to Fucheng.
Hearing that Liu Zhang was coming, Liu Bei immediately took the civil and military soldiers to the front of the camp to greet him. I saw a dusty figure in the distance, and then a group of men and horses came, all neatly dressed, with bright armor, and they were simply armed to the teeth. Liu Chan looked at the dust in the distance, and the sound of weapons colliding kept ringing in his ears, judging from the footsteps of the soldiers and the dust splashed up, Liu Zhang brought no less than 5,000 people this time!
This Liu Zhang is really careful! Liu Chan pondered in his heart.
At this time, the team finally came to the front, and the leader immediately came down a man wearing gold armor, this person was slightly fat, with a double chin, how did he not look like a general, but he was wearing a gold armor, which looked nondescript.
This person is Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang!
Beside Liu Zhang, there were more than a dozen military generals with Wenchen, all of whom were fully armed and looked cautious, it seemed that these people did not look like they were here to go to the banquet at all, but to fight.
Liu Zhang got off the horse, and Liu Bei in front of him walked up quickly with everyone, and when he saw Liu Zhang, he said with a smile: "Brother Ji Yuxian, I haven't seen you for a long time!" ”
Liu Zhang also saw Liu Bei, and hurriedly stepped forward to worship: "Liu Zhang has seen my brother!" ”
Liu Bei and Liu Zhang are both relatives of the Han family, and Liu Bei is two years older than Liu Zhang, so Liu Zhang calls Liu Bei his brother.
Speaking of which, Liu Bei and Liu Zhang met decades ago. In the last years of Emperor Ling, the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, and Liu Bei, who was in Zhuo County at that time, recruited 500 villagers to support Youzhou, and at that time Youzhou Taishou was Liu Zhang's father Liu Yan, and it was that time that Liu Bei and Liu Zhang met once, and it has been more than 20 years.
At this time, everyone had already dismounted, Liu Zhang looked behind Liu Bei, and saw that everyone was wearing brocade robes, even Huang Zhong and Wei Yan only carried a sword at their waists, and the only one wearing armor in Liu Bei's group was Liu Bei's personal guard leader Chen Zhi, but Chen Zhi only wore a thin breastplate.
Looking at his side, one by one heavy helmets and heavy armor, the clanging sound of armor colliding when they walked, and what is even more odious is that Ling Bao and the others are still carrying long weapons such as big knives, and they are obviously not here to eat at the banquet. This posture is seen by everyone, and he is guarding against Liu Bei, afraid that others will set up a Hongmen banquet for him!
"Adou, come here, I've seen my uncle!" Liu Bei said to Liu Chan, Liu Chan hurriedly came over to greet Liu Zhang, and Liu Bei introduced: "Brother Xian, this is the little Liu Chan, nicknamed Adou." ”
When Liu Chan came out, Liu Zhang's face suddenly turned red, and a trace of embarrassment appeared on Liu Zhang's face.
Liu Zhang turned his head and glared at Zhang Ren fiercely. I secretly said in my heart, you guy's bad idea! What kind of Hongmen banquet, who have you seen come to the Hongmen banquet with children! Liu Bei kindly invited himself to a banquet, but he thought that Liu Bei was setting up a Hongmen banquet, and he was also on guard everywhere, he was simply a villain's heart to spend the belly of a gentleman, if this was spread out, his reputation would be ruined!
Zhang Ren next to him also blushed, although Zhang Ren didn't have a good impression of Liu Bei, but Liu Bei's frank behavior, Zhang Ren still admired it a little. If Zhang Ren was himself, he would definitely set up a Hongmen banquet.
Liu Bei introduced Pang Tong, Huang Zhong and others to Liu Zhang, and Liu Zhang also introduced Zhang Ren and others to Liu Bei.
The generals entered the table, Liu Bei pulled Liu Zhang and sat down according to the main seat, the Three Kingdoms era paid attention to kneeling and sitting, but now Liu Zhang and others are wearing heavy armor, where can they sit down, Liu Zhang looked at Liu Bei's side, one by one, calm and relaxed, and then look at his own side, Zhang Ren, Ling Bao, Liu Bi...... A military general couldn't sit down because he was covered in armor, and all of them stood awkwardly, and Liu Zhang was ashamed and eager to find a hole to get into.
……
Three days later, Liu Bei led the army to leave Fucheng and came to Jiameng Pass.
At the same time that Liu Bei entered Shu, a great battle also took place in the East. Cao Cao temporarily relieved Ma Chao's worries, and then personally led an army of 300,000 to Jiangdong. Due to Zhou Yu's new funeral in Jiangdong, there was no suitable person to lead the army for a while, so Sun Quan personally led the troops to resist Cao Cao.
Gangneung.
In the east of the city, there is a restaurant, called Wangjianglou, a few years ago Jiangling changed hands one after another, the situation was turbulent, the owner of this shop fled with his family, and recently the shopkeeper returned to Jiangling, and sold this Wangjiang Building, now the boss is surnamed Zhou, it is Zhou Shan from Jiangdong!
At this time, Zhou Shan was holding a secret guarantee from Shu in his hand.
"It turns out that Liu Bei has already arrived at Jiameng Pass! It seems that it is time for the new plan to be implemented......"
——————————————————————————
I didn't expect a Luo Fengpo to cause such a big controversy. Of course, Gluttony knows that the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is different from the official history, but the impact of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is much greater than that of the official history of the Three Kingdoms. However, the literary value of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is not comparable to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and I personally feel that the Romance of the Three Kingdoms in Luo Guanzhong is indeed wonderful, worthy of being one of the four masterpieces.
Readers who have read Glutton's "Chuang San" must know that Gluttony's Three Kingdoms works are not completely in accordance with the romance, nor are they completely in accordance with the official history. Gluttony likes to mix the two more exciting places together, but there is always a conflict between romance and official history, so at this time, Gluttony will often take one of the two, as for which one to take, it depends on the plot.
Regarding whether there was the name of Luo Fengpo or Pang Tong who died first, the gluttonous insect did not know. I don't think that's a big deal, and that should be left to archaeologists and not readers. And it is also written in the book of gluttonous insects that Adou did not find Luofengpo on the map, which is two possibilities, one is that there is but there is no mark on the map, and the other is that there is no at all.
There will be a third chapter later, please recommend!
