Chapter 421: Yan Xu Fights Again
Xuzhou, Xiapi City.
Liu Bei summoned all his subordinates, and judging from the anxious look on his face, there must be something important to discuss.
The war in Jizhou and Qingzhou made it difficult for Liu Bei to sleep and eat, and there was a deep grudge between him and Zhao Qian.
Moreover, now, Liu Bei and Cao Cao are also inseparable from each other, and if Zhao Qian takes the opportunity to attack at this time, it will be difficult to resist.
Looking at the strategists and generals under the seat, Liu Bei finally spoke: "Everyone, the current situation is not favorable to us, what is the best plan?" ”
Chen Gong pondered for a moment, then arched his hand and said: "Lord Qiqi, with the land of Xuzhou and a state, it may not be easy to fight against Cao Cao and Zhao Qian, and it must be helped." ”
Liu Bei frowned and asked, "Gongtai, who can help?" ”
"It's better than Liu Jingsheng in Jingzhou." Chen Gong said.
Liu Bei didn't speak when he heard this, obviously waiting for Chen Gong to explain why he chose Liu Biao from Jingzhou as a helper.
Chen Gong naturally understood, so he said: "Jingzhou Liu Biao, like the lord, is a member of the Han family, and he will not sit idly by. ”
Liu Bei nodded and said, "Do the other people have any opinions?" ”
"Lord, I heard that Liu Biao has already surrendered to Zhao Qian, how can he still be willing to help me?" Mi Zhu frowned and said.
Chen Gong smiled and explained: "Liu Biao did surrender to Zhao Qian, but there is no harm in forming an alliance with him to fight against Cao Cao, as long as Liu Biao can contain Cao Cao, we can also save some effort in the face of Zhao Qian." ”
Liu Bei nodded and said, "Who can go to Jingzhou?" ”
Mi Zhu stood up and said: "There is a person here, who is from Beihai, surnamed Sun, named Qian, and whose name is Gongyou, who can visit Jingzhou as an envoy. ”
Mi Zhu is a huge rich man in Xuzhou, since he is a talent recommended by him, he must have something extraordinary, and he has already married Liu Bei, so he will definitely support Liu Bei.
"Good!" Liu Bei was overjoyed, "So I asked Zizhong to invite Mr. Sun Qian to go to Jingzhou to receive help." ”
So, Mi Zhu did not delay, and went to Sun Gan to discuss the next day, Sun Qian did not shirk, packed his bags and went to Jingzhou.
It's just that just a few days after Sun Qian left, Cao Cao sent troops to attack Xuzhou, and Liu Bei had no choice but to lead Guan Yu and Li Jin to meet the enemy.
Cheng Yu returned from Jinyang, although he did not bring Zhao Qian's reinforcements, but he brought a large amount of weapons, equipment and food.
This made Cao Cao very happy, and he liked those weapons made of fine iron.
When he fought with Liu Bei before, Zhang Miao got a batch of them from Bingzhou for Liu Bei, which made Cao Cao suffer a lot of losses.
Now that he has a batch of them, then he Cao Cao doesn't have to be too taboo about Guan Yu's school knife team.
As a result, Cao Cao, who was well fed and well-fed, couldn't wait to launch a war against Xuzhou.
Cao Cao saw it very clearly, and now Zhao Qian has formed a climate, which is difficult to shake at all, so if he wants to develop, he can only go east and south.
If you go north, it's a dead end.
Zhao Qian did not send troops directly, although Cao Cao was a little disappointed, but he was also glad that he wanted to seize this opportunity to expand his power as soon as possible.
Only in this way, no matter what happens in the future, Cao Cao will have enough chips in his hands.
Cao Cao and Liu Bei faced each other, and they were very familiar with each other.
"Cao Cao, you have invaded my Xuzhou several times, causing misery and misery for the people, what is your intention?" Liu Bei was the first to drink and asked.
Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and pointed at Liu Bei with the horsewhip in his hand and said: "Liu Bei, the vertical son, weaving mats and selling shoes, stealing my Yanzhou, deceiving Xuzhou, and now biting me, it is extremely shameless!" ”
"Thou hast attacked without a cause, and I have done great righteousness, how can thou speak the same day?" Liu Bei quibbled.
Cao Cao laughed and said, "Do great righteousness? It's just a bully of the king, I follow the edict of the Son of Heaven, I came to quell the rebellion, quickly dismount and sacrifice the city, and on the neck of the knife, regret it too late. ”
Liu Bei was furious, pointed at the only remaining long sword, and shouted, "Who can go and take down the head of this old thief?" ”
Xiao Jian, the general next to him, was anxious to make meritorious service, slapped his horse out, and shouted: "Xiao Jian is here, Cao thief is here!" ”
"Nameless people, don't be rampant! The lord retreats, and Li Dian comes! Li Dian flashed out behind Cao Cao and rushed forward.
Cao Cao straddled the BMW and turned back, leaving the battlefield to Li Dian and Xiao Jian.
The two quickly met in short combat, and the two horses pedaled wrongly, so Xiao Jian looked quite powerful, but Li Dian was not weak.
After a few rounds, Xiao Jian was a little unsupportable, and he had the heart to retreat, but he didn't dare to take a step back.
This time, Xiao Jian took the initiative to rush out, and if he retreated, it would be a violation of the military order.
Xiao Jian knew in his heart that his lord Liu Bei usually looked extremely easy-going, but if anyone violated his orders, the law enforcement was also quite strict.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jian felt a little weak in his heart, his martial arts were not as good as Li Dian, but now he was distracted, where could he still resist.
Finally, at the moment when Xiao Jian was stunned, Li Dian seized the opportunity and handed the spear in his hand forward, which happened to stab Xiao Jian's forehead.
Xiao Jian's eyes widened, he screamed, fell off the horse, and blood suddenly poured out of the blood hole in his forehead, as if he couldn't survive.
"Roar! Roar! Roar! ”
There were bursts of roars from Cao Cao's army, which was quite loud and morale was greatly increased.
Li Dian rode on the horse and laughed, this first victory can be described as a good start.
Liu Bei's face was pale, and he gave Li Jin next to him a look, signaling him to kill him, no matter what, he couldn't break the morale of the army because of this.
Li Jin understood and slapped the horse out, and at this time, Li Dian was turning the horse and walking back, not knowing the situation behind him.
"Mancheng be careful!"
In the middle of the military formation, Le Jin shouted, and he couldn't care about much, so he urged the horse forward.
Hearing Le Jin's reminder, Li Dian didn't know that he had a "tail" behind him, and hurriedly turned around to meet the enemy.
It's just that in a hurry, it is difficult to mobilize the strength of the whole body, and at this time Li Jin is already close.
While!
Li Dian blocked Li Jin's shot, but at this time, his arms were sore, and Li Jin's second shot had already stabbed over.
For a while, Li Dian's arms were difficult to recover, and he could only watch Li Jin's spear stab, ready to die on the battlefield.
"The rebel will be rampant!"
At this moment, a loud shout sounded beside Li Dian, and it was Le Jin who killed him at this critical moment.
Le Jin did not help Li Dian resist, but directly slashed at Li Jin with a knife, and adopted the strategy of encircling Wei to save Zhao.
If Li Jin insisted on stabbing Li Dian to death, then next, he himself would be hacked to death.
Obviously, Li Jin was unwilling, one life for another, that is, he had to stab Li Dian's spear, and suddenly stopped halfway and was withdrawn by Li Jin.
While!
In the middle of a while, Le Jin slashed with a knife, and it happened to be on top of the spear that Li Jin pulled back!
