The years are unforgiving! This is a very appropriate way to describe Zhang Fei at this time. If Zhang Fei, who was at his peak in terms of physical fitness and experience twenty years ago, wanted to take the head of the enemy general from the army, Zhang Fei would still be able to do it. But Zhang Fei is old, he is not like Huang Zhong, Ma Yuan, Lian Po and other male men who are getting older and more bullish, like most people, although they have rich experience, but their physical fitness still can't keep up, after a fierce battle for half a night, Zhang Fei feels that the snake spear he usually uses in his hand is getting heavier and heavier, and every time he swings, Zhang Fei needs to use ten percent of his strength.

If it weren't for the fact that the handsome tent of the Han army was already close at hand, Zhang Fei would almost have given up. But as Liu Xie, the son of heaven, led the crowd to appear outside the handsome tent, Zhang Fei gritted his teeth and insisted on the concept that suddenly collapsed, and he gave up his old life to fight for half a night, but he didn't expect that the main owner was not there.

No matter what you do, in fact, it is just a momentum, and once it is leaked, it will not be easy to revive it. What's more, at this time, the generals around Liu Xie are on the side, even if Zhang Fei turns the horse's head and goes straight to Liu Xie, it is impossible to get close to Liu Xie. Zhao Yun, Yan Yan, Wang Ping, Zhang Wei, Cao Zhang, Guan Ping and others are not idle eaters, and it is impossible for them to let Zhang Fei take Liu Xie's life. And Zhang Fei's strength was already low at this time, even if he wanted to continue to kill, he was more than willing to do it.

"Zhang Fei! The general trend has gone, and you can't get off the horse and catch it! Cao Zhang jumped out of his horse and shouted at Zhang Fei.

"Humph! Who's ignorant doll dares to make noise in front of your grandfather Zhang San. Zhang Fei didn't lose the battle, and scolded with a sneer. Cao Zhang's face turned red with anger, and he raised his gun and was ready to step forward to fight Zhang Fei, but Zhao Yun behind him said loudly: "Ziwen, you step down, let me meet Zhang Yide." ”

The phenomenon of seniority in terms of seniority exists no matter what industry it is, and it is even more important in the military. Zhao Yun can be regarded as one of the generals who have followed Liu Xie for the longest time, Cao Zhang does not dare to "grab credit" with Zhao Yun, and Zhao Yun spoke out at this time, it must have been approved by Liu Xie.

Looking at Zhao Yun with a calm face, Zhang Fei couldn't help but feel a trace of bitterness in his heart, to say that Zhao Yun was older than Liu Bei, but just looking at his appearance, he looked younger than Zhang Fei. And for Zhao Yun's martial arts, Zhang Fei knows very well, even if he is in his heyday, there is no possibility of winning Zhao Yun in a short period of time, not to mention that he is sleepy and besieged at the moment, and tonight may be his last night.

"Zilong, don't talk about it, and let you and me have a good fight!" Zhang Fei would not open his mouth to beg for mercy, even if he knew that he was invincible, he would rather be shrouded in horse leather.

"Yide, you and I know each other, what kind of character you are, how can I not know." Zhao Yun said and was about to rush forward. I didn't want to hear a cheer from behind me, "Okay, it's really worthy of being called the enemy of ten thousand people, and he doesn't ask for surrender when he is in a desperate situation, not bad." Come, fetch wine. ”

Zhang Fei stared at Liu Xie who was speaking, but Zhao Yun was a little depressed in his heart, Zhang Fei didn't understand Liu Xie, but Zhao Yun knew Liu Xie's character very well. This saint never cared about personal reputation, as long as he achieved the goal, it was unscrupulous. Loudly praising Zhang Fei like now, outsiders see that Liu Xie was moved by Zhang Fei's loyalty and refusal to surrender, but those who know Liu Xie know that this is Liu Xie is ready to start bubbling out again.

"Zhang Fei, today's battle is probably the last battle of your life, this jar of wine is very strong, just in line with your identity as a warrior." Liu Xie said and ordered someone to send a jar of wine the size of an adult's head to Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei has always been a drunkard, and when he smelled the aroma of wine in the altar, his throat couldn't help but stir, and Zhang Fei also knew that he was lucky tonight, and it was a good thing for Zhang Fei to be able to drink wine before he died in battle.

"Thank you, Holy Lord, for the wine." Zhang Fei put the snake spear in his hand flat on the saddle, reached out and took a big sip of the wine jar, the wine was really strong, compared to the fine wine that Zhang Fei usually drank, those wines could only be regarded as water!

Zhang Fei drank a jar of wine until there was not a drop left, casually threw the jar aside, picked up the snake spear again and shouted to Zhao Yun who was waiting: "Zilong, it's been a long time, come on." ”

Seeing this, Zhao Yun nodded slightly, and as soon as his legs clamped the horse's belly, he rushed over to Zhang Fei. But Zhang Fei was abnormal at this time, and saw that he first shook his head hard, and then his body was crooked, and he fell off the horse on his back. When Zhao Yun arrived closer, he heard a snoring sound coming from Zhang Fei's mouth.

Feeling that he was being watched by everyone around him, Liu Xie said with a regretful face: "Oops~ It seems that Zhang Fei is not strong enough to drink." ”

The alcohol brewed by ancient people is generally not very high, and it is about the same as the alcohol content of later beers, and some are even lower. In ancient times, there was a lack of drinks, and the ancients drank alcohol in the same way that later generations drank drinks. Otherwise, the ancients could drink wine bowl after bowl? Try it with the two pots of Niulanshan, you can't kill them!

Liu Xie is very lacking in morality, and the wine he asked Zhang Fei to get is not suitable for drinking, it is distilled to increase the degree as a medicinal alcohol to wipe the wound. Although it could not reach the degree of medicinal alcohol in later generations due to the backwardness of distillation methods, that degree was not something that Zhang Fei, who was accustomed to drinking ten or twenty degrees of fine wine, could withstand.

……

"Rejuvenation? Why are you here? Zhang Fei, who woke up, saw Zhang Bao at a glance and couldn't help blurting out. Zhang Bao held a bowl of sobering soup in his hand, and replied while handing it to Zhang Fei: "Father, the child is incompetent and has become a prisoner of the Han army. ”

“…… Then here is ......"

"The logistics battalion of the Han army."

“…… Why is the Father here? ”

Zhang Bao couldn't help but roll her eyes at Zhang Fei's question, but Lao Tzu's question as a son couldn't help but answer, so he had to remind cautiously: "Doesn't my father remember what happened that night?" ”

"That night?" People who are drunk tend to have amnesia and can't remember what happened before and after getting drunk, but they can generally remember it if they try to think about it. Zhang Fei remembered, but he would rather not remember. Shame on you! He was drunk and fell off his horse in front of the two armies......

“…… There's something wrong with that wine. Zhang Fei said with great certainty.

Zhang Bao couldn't help but roll her eyes again, a little speechless at Lao Tzu's strong words. Even if there is a real problem with the wine, you can't help but drink it? Knowing that he was the enemy, he dared to drink the wine sent by the enemy......

"Xingguo, what are you rolling your eyes at? Is it wrong for the Father to speak? Zhang Fei asked Zhang Bao dissatisfiedly.

"Yes, yes to my father, there is something wrong with the wine. Father, isn't it time to say that there is a problem with the wine, but think about where you and my father and son should go next? Zhang Bao didn't argue with Zhang Fei, and directly changed the topic.

"Hiss~" people with hangovers have this experience, that is, they will have a headache after waking up, Zhang Fei didn't feel it when he just woke up, but he was reminded by Zhang Bao, and when he thought about things, the headache suddenly became stronger.

"Father, what's wrong with you?" Seeing this, Zhang Bao asked nervously.

"It's okay, it's just a headache."

"After drinking a jar of liquor in one go, if you don't drink it, Zhang Yide is already fateful." A joking voice came from outside the tent, and then Zhao Yun was seen opening the tent and entering.

“…… Zilong, I thought you were a loyal and honest person, but I didn't expect ......"

"Hey~ Yide, don't shirk your responsibilities indiscriminately. I let you drink? If you dare to drink even if you know that you are an enemy, it can only mean that you are stupid, and who told you that you are not strong enough to drink. Zhao Yun didn't wait for Zhang Fei to finish speaking, and then interrupted the count.

Zhang Fei was speechless. Zhao Yun is not wrong, if he is caught, then he will still be shameless in beating and scolding the opponent. But he was caught but he was too drunk to drink, and he got drunk on the battlefield and asked others to pick up the cheap, so I really can't blame others.

"Yide, the Holy Lord sympathizes with you and has just woken up from a hangover, and orders me to come and inform you, wait for a few days to rest, and then someone will escort you back to Zhuo County."

“…… Zilong, when did I say that I was going to submit to the imperial court? Hearing this, Zhang Fei raised his head and stared at Zhao Yun and asked.

"Knowing that you will not be converted, the Holy One has no hope of accepting you. You are only allowed to return to your hometown because the Holy God admires your loyalty, so don't think about it. ”

“…… Are you not afraid that I will return to my brother? ”

"If you want father and son to kill each other, then you go back."

Hearing Zhao Yun's words, Zhang Fei turned his head violently to look at Zhang Bao on the side, but saw that Zhang Bao was also confused. Seeing his father glaring at him, Zhang Bao couldn't help but ask Zhao Yundao: "Zhao Zilong, when did I submit to the imperial court?" ”

"It's up to you." Zhao Yun glanced at Zhang Bao and said lightly. Then he said to Zhang Fei: "Yide, the saint is willing to accept Zhang Bao is also for your Zhang family, you have to think clearly and think about the future of your Zhang family." ”

"I, I don't descend!" Zhang Bao, who was ignored by Zhao Yun, shouted with a stiff neck.

"Shut up! There's no talk for you here, get out of the way! Zhang Fei scolded irritably. At the beginning, Zhang Fei had always been worried about Guan Ping's return to the imperial court, but when the matter fell on his head, Zhang Fei suddenly understood Guan Ping's bitterness in returning to the imperial court.

Guan Yu's loyalty to his brother Liu Bei is on par with his own, but when it comes to his children and family inheritance, Zhang Fei has to be cautious. He is loyal to Liu Bei, but it does not mean that Zhang Fei is willing to be loyal to Liu Bei's great cause for his descendants, especially in the current situation where the general trend of the world is clear, and it is no longer possible for Liu Bei to compete in the Central Plains. Zhang Fei's loyalty to Liu Bei is for the sake of the righteousness of the whole past few decades, but Zhang Fei doesn't want his family to bury Liu Bei for his "private feelings", if there is an opportunity for the family to continue, Zhang Fei naturally doesn't want to miss it.

Just as Guan Yu would rather commit suicide than surrender to the imperial court, Zhang Fei did not intend to stop his son Zhang Bao from serving the imperial court. Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and if you want the incense of the Zhang family in Zhuojun to continue, it is the only choice to let Zhang Bao work for the imperial court.

People's ideas are also changing with age, when they are young, they are impulsive and reckless, but when they are old, they need to worry about more things, and naturally they can't do what they want like when they were young. Zhang Fei is now a man of Ben Sixty, and this age is already considered a high life expectancy in ancient times, and he thinks that the starting point of things will naturally not be the same as when he just followed Liu Bei.

He himself could choose to follow Liu Bei to the death, but at the same time, he didn't want Zhang Bao to bury his life in vain for an impossible goal. He hoped that Zhang Bao could make the incense of the Zhang family continue, and he hoped that the Zhang family could prosper in Zhang Bao's hands. chose to follow Liu Bei back then, in addition to being like-minded, being unwilling to be a strong man in Zhuo County was also one of the main reasons. In order to make the Zhang family go to the next level, Zhang Feihao gambled and scattered all his family resources to support Liu Bei's great cause, but in the end, the bamboo basket was empty, and the former No. 1 Haoqiang in Zhuo County had long been replaced. It is impossible to say that Zhang Fei does not feel the slightest guilt towards the ancestors of the Zhang family, but this little bit of thought cannot be humane to outsiders, Zhang Fei can only bury it in his heart.

In order to let the tendoned Zhang Bao serve the court willingly, Zhang Fei said what was in his heart, but Zhang Bao was stunned by his father's words. He never thought that his father, who was heroic on weekdays, would have such a "big rebellion" mind.

"Xingguo, why do you see him as a father so much?"

“…… Father, the child just didn't expect that the father also had no confidence in the uncle. ”

"Huh...... How can the general trend of the world be easily reversed by manpower? As early as when your second uncle passed away, my father had already guessed that there would be today. Xingguo, my father and your uncle have been friends for many years, although they are different surnames, they are like brothers, and this friendship cannot be tarnished. You are different, although you are my son, you do not have to die for the cause of your great uncle. ”

Dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the sons of rats will make holes. Zhang Bao is Zhang Fei's parent, and his personality is also inherited from Zhang Fei. Although the appearance is rough and arrogant, but there is splendor, hearing what his father said to him, Zhang Bao couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, where is this persuading himself to return to the court, it is clearly explaining his last words.

Knowing that he couldn't persuade his father to change his mind, Zhang Bao had to pin his hopes on Liu Xie. In this world, only Liu Bei can make Zhang Fei change his decision, but now Liu Bei is far away in Jiaozhou, and even if Liu Bei is in Guiyang, it is not realistic for him to come to Hanying to persuade Zhang Fei in person.

After listening to Zhang Bao's story, Liu Xie also had some difficulties, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu are the kind of people who are determined, once they make up their minds, they will rarely change their minds. At that time, Guan Yu refused to return to obedience at the end of the road, and now Zhang Fei seems to be planning to learn from Guan Yu's righteousness of repaying Liu Bei with death.

It is difficult for a person who is bent on dying to persuade him to change his mind, but in the face of Zhang Bao, who knelt on the ground and pleaded, Liu Xie was a little hesitant. Liu Xie really likes Zhang Fei with a true temperament, and if Zhang Fei dies, Liu Xie will really feel sorry.

"Don't be in a hurry to rejuvenate the country, I'll go talk to your father first and see if there is room to go back."

"There is Lao Sheng's bother." Zhang Bao hurriedly replied.

Just in case, Zhao Yun insisted on going with Liu Xie to see Zhang Fei, and Liu Xie did not refuse. The son of the daughter can't sit down, although he appreciates Zhang Fei's true temperament, but Liu Xie will not gamble with his life, accompanied by Zhao Yun, Liu Xie came to Zhang Fei's tent with two jars of wine.
