A poem in the pre-Qin period expresses the joy of the wine banquet. However, there are many kinds of wine banquets, including friendships and the beauty of wine banquets and music; There were also enemies who met each other and fought against each other.
At this time, Matthew felt a little bit like the overlord was surrounded. The wine banquet that was still happy a moment ago, this moment seems to have fallen into some fixed spell:
Ma Xiu looked at Liu Bei, and in a trance, a peony bud appeared like a cicada chrysalis on his smiling face, hatching space, standing still in time, and the needle drop could be heard in the huge hall, but there was nothing to hear.
The buds slowly swelled, a trace of stamens trembled out of his head, and Jia Long, who had been drunk at that time, opened his closed eyes and shot a fine light from his left eye, which seemed to be confused. After the brilliance passed, the closed eyes were still closed.
The stamens stretch, the petals bloom with colorful colors and Liu Bei's smiling face, clusters on top of each other, faintly appearing, Liu Bei for a while, and a peony for a while.
Until the end, Ma Xiu couldn't tell which was the peony and which was Liu Bei.
The silent night, the dazzling lights, no wind, no rain, and not the slightest sound of everyone still alive.
Call~
Matthew tried to open his mouth, and the cold wind of the northern night mixed with a biting cold poured in.
Matthew felt that the cotton robe inside the silver armor was soaking wet.
Ma Xiu also felt that at the banquet, large and small, awake or dressed unawake, in fact, the awake people were watching him with their own eyes, the Han Dynasty has been inherited for three hundred years, and there are twenty-five emperors, and there has never been a small cavalry captain who dares to hold the soldiers in his hands. With no general, he dared to enter the city with a swaggering handsome army against the suspicion of the state and county assassination.
It is true that the big man is now too big to fall, and the building will collapse. But as long as the pillar that holds up the sky does not fall, the big man will still be the big man who cooks oil with fire.
Careless.
Matthew twitched his stiff neck, although there were many family elders present who had expressed or actually made too much of Matthew's support, either explicitly or implicitly. But that was when Matthew was still bouncing in the institutional circle of Youzhou. Everyone follows the established rules to find a way to move in their favor.
Just like playing chess, you can hide from the world, and you can use up all the tricks to kill a bloody path. But you just can't break the established rules.
And Matthew is now like he wants to erase the chessboard and run directly outside the siege, then everyone can't accept it.
Although now the imperial court wants each state and county to recruit their own defenders, this is a big cake. But this big cake is also eaten by everyone layer by layer, and you can't skip the order to destroy the profit channels of the vested interests in the entire Youzhou.
Therefore, if Matthew can know the advance and retreat today, then this is a gentleman's banquet, and everyone is happy. But if Matthew refuses to retreat, it will be a Hongmen banquet where the fish is dead and the net is broken.
You husband, what are you doing in front of me, can't your black grandfather's snake spear pierce the dead!
Just as Matthew was struggling, a thunderclap exploded outside the door.
Everyone was shocked, and Matthew was overjoyed.
Then the clanging of armor and the muffled sound of running came from far and near.
Stop, how can the too shou pastoral office wait for the wilderness.... Yes....!
A shout rang out almost at the same time as the scream, followed by the sound of weapons colliding and sharp weapons cutting human flesh.
Obviously, the outside has completely turned its face.
Ma Xiu froze and looked at the dozens of Youzhou magnates in the field who were in doubt, and all the familiar and unfamiliar faces became clear in his eyes at this time. Things exceeded his estimates, he didn't expect Liu Junlang to kill him without discussion; Things also exceeded everyone's expectations, because according to the plan, the sword and axe men under Zou Jing and Liu Bei's ambush should have been dismantled by Ma Xiu's subordinates by this time, and the leading generals should also come to the hall with the heads of Ma Xiu's generals - and then according to the imagination of Master Sima Jia of the other department, the heads should be thrown on Ma Xiu's low table with a grunt.
Let him Ma Zishuo look at the bloody head trembling alone in front of the wine table, and let him know that the power of Youzhou is not something that he can ask for as a rootless and powerless country bun.
Ha ha~
Matthew suddenly let out a burst of laughter, leaning back and forth in laughter. The heart and lungs of laughter tremble.
How long has it been, how long has it been since I was brought here by an unknown system. Although he has been through hardships, he has always been in danger. But his heart was getting bigger and bigger day by day.
He couldn't sleep, he dreamed a lot. He woke up several times in a dream: he was afraid, afraid that he had something familiar but different, afraid of something he was unfamiliar with but could not grasp. Especially after sending troops to relieve the siege of Qingzhou. Killing people on the battlefield is like mowing grass, smashing a head and smashing a watermelon to pop up a scoop of red soil.
Everybody's crazy, everybody's screaming. The young face who was still laughing in front of him a moment ago was no longer visible in the blink of an eye.
He had seen Lu Bu's bravery, and he knew that the 5,000-strong army still couldn't protect him.
Although he wants to be strong, there are still tremors in his bones in the middle of the night.
He knew that in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, there were many ways to kill people, including the assassination of Zhuang Ke, the siege of wine banquets, the covering of large armies, and the trap murder of flooding and fire.
Matthew was really scared when he thought about it, he wasn't born to be a general.
But now!
Matthew was suddenly not afraid.
He wanted to laugh.
Because he found that others were more afraid of him, dozens of old and young people at the banquet, there were those in brocade clothes, lupine scarves, and those who could get on the horse to kill the enemy at any time.
But now, they all had panicked faces on their faces.
Matthew laughed, walked to his bed, knelt down, and filled himself with a glass of wine:
Come, everybody. Ma respects a table of banquets carefully arranged by everyone.
Oh~ Liu Bei turned around, a white face, first turned black and then turned red: Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his color remained unchanged, Zishuo was so courageous. If a character like Zishuo is not really helpless, he can't bear to kill him.
If Zishuo can understand current affairs, hand over military power. Bei is willing to sacrifice his life to save Zishuo. I don't know what Zishuo wants.
Oh~ It seems that today's Hongmen banquet was arranged by Xuande.
It's a small subtotal, not enough to worry about the teeth, if the son is Shuo....
Ha ha... Without Liu Bei finishing speaking, Ma Xiu laughed wildly again.
Hmph~ I don't know what to do, Jia Long was not only very angry when he saw Ma Xiu laughing wildly, under his imagination, Ma Xiu should kneel on the ground and beg for mercy at this time, crying and begging him Jia Long to spare his life.
Originally, behind the screens on both sides of this banquet hall, there were fifty sword and axe men carefully selected by Zou Jing, just waiting for Liu Bei to make a difficulty, first suppressing Ma Xiu in momentum and righteousness, and when he lost his arrogance, then he Ma Xiu had to let Jia Long rub it, let him grow and he would grow, let him flatten him and he would flatten, if there was no sign from the cup, kill Ma Xiu first, and then kill his subordinates.
Although the situation became a little uncontrollable at this moment, before Liu Bei finished speaking, there was a commotion outside. He still hasn't figured out how the five hundred school swordsmen ambushed Ma Xiu and dozens of subordinates, why did they still make trouble here.
But it doesn't matter if you don't understand it, you can't turn it over to the other party.
Seeing that Matthew did not know the times, Jia Long decided to give up this lost lamb and no longer save him, but let him become his Kebab Master Jia:
Ma Xiu, the heavy soldiers deliberately rebelled, and someone came to hack this man and me to death.
