Chapter 431: The Horse's Lu
Since Liu Bei came to Jiangxia, Liu Qi has been treated very well, providing all the living expenses, and also helping Guan Yu recruit troops and reorganize the school knife team.
For a while, Liu Bei's momentum gradually recovered, and his spirit was flying, and Liu Qi had a big banquet on the fifth day and a small banquet on the third day.
On this day, at the feast, everyone was drinking and talking, Liu Qi suddenly sighed, his eyebrows frowned slightly, as if he was haunted.
Liu Bei put his hand on top of the case in front of him, clenched his fists and said: "If the eldest prince has any worries, you might as well say that you will come out, and we can share the worries of the eldest prince." ”
General Liu Qi was put down and sighed: "I am the eldest son, originally the lord of Jingzhou, but now I have been driven to Jiangxia, although I am not willing, but Liu Cong is my brother, but I don't care very much." It's just that the Cai clan didn't want to let go, that Xiakou was originally the jurisdiction of Jiangxia, but Cai Mao sent Zhang Wu and Chen Sun to go. Now I have heard that they are there, and they are causing trouble to the people and taking them captive, and my heart is very troubled, and I have the heart to beg the thief, but I am powerless to conquer them. ”
Guan Yu looked at Liu Bei, a gleam flashed in his eyes, Liu Bei understood, and said with a smile: "Don't worry about the eldest prince, I am willing to raise troops to ask for it!" ”
Liu Qi was overjoyed and said: "If you get your uncle's help, Xia Kou will have no worries." ”
So, after the banquet, Liu Qi ordered all the Jiangxia people and horses, and Guan Yu's newly recruited school knife team, a total of 20,000 horses, to run to Xiakou.
Xiakou is not far from Jiangxia City, and it is a throat connecting Jingzhou and Jiangdong, and its geographical location is very important.
Within two days, Liu Bei led his soldiers and horses to feel that Zhang Wu and Chen Sun learned the news, and they also hurriedly mobilized men and horses to go out of the city to fight.
Zhang Wu took the lead, came to the front of the battle, looked at Liu Bei, and scolded loudly: "Shameless Liu Bei, invade my lord Jingzhou, and don't get off the horse and surrender to death!" ”
Liu Bei pointed at the sword in his hand and said: "This place is under the jurisdiction of the eldest prince, you will harm the people, leave quickly, or you can avoid death!" ”
"Phew!" Zhang Wu was very disdainful.
Guan Yu urged the horse to come to Liu Bei's side and said, "Big brother, why talk nonsense, just kill it!" ”
Liu Bei shook his head lightly and said, "Second brother, be slow, and look at the horse that Zhang Wu is riding!" ”
Guan Yu was stunned, looking at the horse? What's so nice about horses?
However, when Guan Yu looked at the ------horse under Zhang Wu's crotch, he couldn't help but see Danfeng's eyes wide, it was really a good horse!
I saw that the horse Gu Cai Shenfei was flying, with a white spot on his forehead, his limbs were strong and powerful, and he was neighing.
"Big brother likes this horse?" Guan Yu asked.
Liu Bei nodded and said, "The horse I rode has long been tired, but I haven't found a good horse for a while, and what I see today is very fond of it." ”
Guan Yu smiled and said, "Since the eldest brother likes it, I will take the horse for the eldest brother!" ”
"Yun Chang be careful!" Liu Bei admonished.
Guan Yu agreed, brandished the Blue Dragon Glaive Knife in his hand, and took Zhang Wu directly.
When Zhang Wu saw Guan Yu coming, he snorted coldly and raised his gun to fight!
This Zhang Wu and Chen Sun were originally generals under Yuan Shao, and after Yuan Shao was defeated by Zhao Qian, he was exiled to Jingzhou.
For Liu Bei and Guan Yu, Zhang Wu and Chen Sun had also heard of it, and knew that they were forced by Zhao Qian in Xuzhou not long ago to defect to Jiangxia Liu Qi.
Therefore, Zhang Wu and Chen Sun did not attach much importance to Liu Bei and Guan Yu.
Everyone was defeated by Zhao Qian, who is better than whom? Who's afraid of whom!
With this thought, Zhang Wu didn't think about it, and went directly to Guan Yu, but he didn't know that he was also a defeated general under Zhao Qian, and the gap in martial arts was also very large.
It's just that when Zhang Wu personally proved it, the result was naturally ------ death!
Fighting against Guan Yu, Zhang Wu didn't last three rounds, and was cut off half of his head by Guan Yu with a knife, and fell off the horse.
Guan Yu handed the Green Dragon Glaive from his left hand to his right hand, then reached out and grabbed the horse's bridle, leading Zhang Wu's mount back to the battle.
When Chen Sun saw it, he couldn't help but feel sad and angry, the two fled for their lives from Jizhou, but they didn't expect Zhang Wu to die here.
"Guan Yu is leaving!" Chen Sun roared, and Pegasus came to fight.
Just arrived in the formation and handed over the reins of the horse to Liu Bei, Guan Yu saw Chen Sun coming to fight, snorted coldly, and said, "I don't know what I can do." ”
With a loud shout, Chen Sun followed in the footsteps of Zhang Wu and was slashed to death by Guan Yu.
When the rest of the troops saw it, they scattered one after another, and Liu Bei drove troops to recruit An Yudang, pacified the Xiakou counties, and sent the good news to Jiangxia Liu Qi.
Liu Qi was overjoyed when he learned the news and sent someone to take over the affairs of Xiakou, while Liu Bei and Guan Yu gathered their soldiers and returned to Jiangxia.
On the way, Guan Yu frowned, came to Liu Bei and asked, "Why didn't the eldest brother stay in Xiakou, and based on this, Xu Tu had a big deal?" ”
Liu Bei shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Xiakou is the place of the four wars, the city wall is not high, the grain and grass are insufficient, and it is not where the troops are located. ”
Guan Yu nodded and didn't say anything.
Jiangxia, Liu Qi went out of the city to greet him again, and then needless to say, it was another celebration banquet.
During the banquet, one person picked up the wine glass and saluted Liu Bei from afar: "Today, I saw that the horse that Liu Yuanjun rode was extremely handsome and healthy, I don't know where I got it?" ”
Liu Bei raised his eyes and saw that it was Liu Qi who was engaged in Iraq.
This Yi was originally Liu Biao's guest, and after Liu Biao's death, he followed Liu Qi to Jiangxia and did it.
Liu Bei hurriedly returned the salute, smiled, and said, "It was the traitor Zhang Wu's mount, which was taken by my second brother." ”
"This horse will never be ridden again." Yi said.
After Liu Bei frowned, he was very fond of the newly acquired horse, and couldn't help asking, "Why is this?" ”
Yi Ji got up and came to Liu Bei and said: "I just looked at it, this horse has a tear trough under his eyes, and there are white spots on his forehead. How can you ride it again? ”
Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, then his face stretched, and he said with a smile: "Mr., Liu Bei is deeply loved and grateful. ”
After a pause, Liu Bei continued: "But mortals have a life and a fate, how can a horse interfere? ”
Yi Ji stared at Liu Bei for a moment, and arched his hand and said: "Make the king high, admire it!" ”
Liu Qi, who was on the main seat, laughed and said, "Uncle is an extraordinary person, you don't have to think about it, come, do it!" ”
Since then, Liu Bei has been in Jiangxia and other places, his prestige has become more and more prosperous, and he has made friends with righteous guests and has grown his wings.
In the spring of the following year, one night, a white crane flew past Liu Bei's residence, and flew northwest with dozens of sounds.
On this night, Liu Bei's second wife, Gan Mei, gave birth to a son, and when she gave birth, she was full of fragrance.
Before Mrs. Gan gave birth to a child, she had dreamed that she swallowed the Big Dipper into her belly, so Liu Bei named her son Adou, and the name Liu Chan was great.
Later, when he heard that Cao Cao's troops were attacking Jingzhou, Liu Bei came to Liu Qi and said: "Now Liu Cong is dealing with Cao Cao, Jingzhou is empty, it is better to use the people of Jiangxia to attack it by taking advantage of the gap, and Jingzhou will return to the hands of the eldest prince." ”
Liu Qi was overly drunk at this time, his body was vain, he thought for a long time, and said: "Brothers attack each other, making people laugh, but they don't dare to have any plans." ”
Liu Bei was silent and said goodbye.
