Zhang Fei is running for his life......

Liu Bei's purpose in keeping Zhang Fei in Jingbei was to confuse the Han army and make the Han army mistakenly think that his main attack direction was still in Wancheng, and second, Zhang Fei was brave, even if there was a little accident, Zhang Fei could escape with his personal bravery. At the beginning, things went very smoothly, Zhang Fei sent troops to wander between Xuchang and Wancheng, attracting most of the attention of the Han army, so that Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang succeeded in sneak attack, and united Guan Yu to defeat the main force of the Han army in Jigui, the main general Huang Zhong was wounded and captured, and the whereabouts of the mastermind Xu Shu are unknown, and the deputy general Wen Ping led the remnants of the defeated army to retreat to the White Emperor City, but Liu Bei took advantage of the victory to pursue, Wen Ping lost three battles in a row, and now he has retreated to Linjiang, fortunately, the Bashu veteran Yan Yan led his troops to help, which slightly eased Liu Bei's offensive.

The Han'an army was defeated, the master was captured, and the mastermind was missing, which was a fiasco for the Han'an army, and because of the problems in Bashu, Liu Xie had to give up the surrender of Cao Cao and adjust the deployment of the army to save Bashu. Bashu is very important to the imperial court, and the stability of Guanzhong and even the Western Regions is related to Bashu. Once Liu Bei gets Bashu, with the narrow road of the dangerous pass, it is enough to resist the counterattack of the Han army.

Bashu can't help it, Liu Xie has this account in his heart, so he naturally knows the trade-offs. Cao Cao has only Xuzhou left, and it is not possible to recover in a year and a half, even if Xiahou Yuan and others are returned to him, he is only enough to protect himself, and if he wants to take revenge, there will be days and waiting.

Before waving the army to rescue Bashu, Liu Xie ordered Xu Huang to guard Puyang, Zhang Liao to guard Xiaoguan, and Zhang Ren to guard Shouchun. And in this way, Liu Xie can not take many soldiers and horses. For this reason, Liu Xie could only go to Runan first, waiting for Sima Yi, who had retired from Xuzhou, to come and join him.

Knowing that his next opponent is Zhuge Liang, Liu Xie brought Sima Yi, Pang Tong, and Fa Zheng with the three masters, so he didn't believe that three against one couldn't get your lying dragon.

But after arriving in Runan, Liu Xie suddenly found something that made him very angry, that Zhang Fei was so bold that he dared to operate near Runan, according to reliable information, this goods are currently stationed in the ancient city not far from Runan. The meat delivered to his mouth can't be eaten, although Sima Yi has not yet brought a large team of people to converge at this time, but with more than 10,000 people in Liu Xie's hands at this time, it is still not a big problem to eat Zhang Fei's 2,000 men and horses.

A sneak attack battle made Zhang Fei suffer, Dian Wei and Pang De entangled Zhang Fei, and Tai Shici commanded the Han army to slaughter Zhang Fei's soldiers. Seeing that his own horse called the person killed by the Han army turned on his horse, screaming again and again, but Zhang Fei just didn't have time to reach out to help.

Zhang Fei is very fierce, but Dian Wei is not a vegetarian, both of them are convincing people with their strength, and their strength in a single round is comparable, plus a pound, even Zhang Fei can only be defeated.

But Liu Xie didn't want to let Zhang Fei run away like this, he had already received the news that Huang Zhong, who was captured by Liu Beijun, refused treatment and died of hunger strike. This news hit Liu Xie very hard, Huang Zhong was the first fierce general to take refuge in Liu Xie, to put it mildly, if it wasn't for Huang Zhong to vote, Liu Xie might not have the confidence to speak loudly to Lu Bu. It was precisely because of Huang Zhong that Lu Bu did not dare to rely on force to bully Liu Xie. It was also Huang Zhong who took the granary of Hanzhong and helped the imperial court, which was short of money and food at that time, to tide over the difficulties. But now that he is dead, "I am a Han general, how can I eat thief food." Leaving this last sentence to show the integrity of Hanchen, he died on hunger strike.

Liu Xie is not a qualified monarch, he is a person who values feelings. In later generations, Liu Xie liked Zhang Fei's courage and loyalty, but now, Liu Xie just wanted to slaughter Zhang Fei and let Liu Bei taste what it was like to lose his relatives.

Zhang Fei also fell into blood mold because of this, and the Han army's pursuit and killing day and night made him emaciated, and the continuous rush for five days and three nights made Zhang Fei almost unable to hold on. Finally, he finally stopped seeing the Han army chasing behind him, Zhang Fei looked around and found that there were only six guards left and right who were still with him at this time.

"Zhang Da, do you have anything to eat?" Zhang Fei opened his mouth and asked Zhang Dadao.

"The three generals, they're all lost." Zhang Da reached out and touched his waist, and replied with a wry smile.

Zhang Fei glared at Zhang Da very dissatisfied, turned his head to look at Fan Jiang on the other side, and saw that Fan Jiang was also spreading his hands, and said helplessly: "Third general, I don't have this." ”

"What do I want you for?" Zhang Fei scolded angrily. Zhang Fei's temperament is just the opposite of his second brother Guan Yu, Guan Yu is heavy on martial arts and light on literature, while Zhang Fei is heavy on literature and light on martial arts. Guan Yu took pity on the soldiers and despised the literati, but Zhang Fei despised the soldiers and respected the literati. treated the soldiers, Zhang Fei beat and scolded them lightly, and whipped them at the worst, and never treated the soldiers as human beings. Zhang Da and Fan Jiang don't look at them as his personal guards, but as long as Zhang Fei is a little unsatisfactory, he will treat them equally, and he has never been soft.

Zhang Fei loves to drink, and the wine is not very good, he loves to beat people when he gets drunk, and the people who are beaten are basically accompanied by alcohol. Zhang Da and Fan Jiang, as Zhang Fei's personal guards, are usually beaten.

"Look, General, there's a herd of cattle." Seeing that Zhang Fei was about to hit people in a frenzy, Zhang Da hurriedly pointed to a shepherd boy under the hillside on the left and said to Zhang Fei.

After escaping for so long, Zhang Fei was already hungry and had his heart close to his back, and when he saw that there were cattlemen, it meant that he could kill cattle and eat meat. There was no more trouble with Zhang Da and Fan Jiang, and with a wave of his hand, Zhang Da immediately ran over with two people running towards the shepherd boy. After a short time, Zhang Da brought the cow back, and at the same time brought the shepherd boy back.

"Zhang Da, what are you bringing this kid for?" Zhang Fei scolded Zhang Da in his heart for not knowing how to do things.

"Third general, this kid said that this cow belongs to their clan and refuses to give it."

“…… Boy, this cow has been requisitioned by our army, get out! Zhang Fei glared at Zhang Da and said to the cowherd baby.

"No, no, I, I'm herding cattle, no, no, no......"

"Damn, I can't even say a word, I deserve to herd cattle for the rest of my life. Fuck off, I want the cow to let your patriarch tell me. Zhang Fei scolded impatiently.

Fan Jiang stepped forward and lifted the neck of the cow herding baby and carried it away, avoiding Zhang Feisai to give Deng Ai a string of copper coins, and persuaded in a low voice: "Boy, let's go, my general has a bad temper, and if he provokes him, he will stew you together, and then you will lose your life." ”

"Big, uncle, you, you are, good, good person. I, no, don't ......"

"Let's go, let's go." Fan Jiang pushed the cow baby, turned around and went back to help kill the cow.

At this time, Zhang Fei and his party did not bring a stove, so they could only raise a bunch of fire and roast beef on the spot to eat. The cow herd still didn't leave, but just stood far away and looked at Zhang Fei and his group.

The cow was roasted, and Zhang Fei, who was very hungry, was not afraid of being hot, he reached out and tore off a large piece and gnawed it, seeing Zhang Fei move his hand, Zhang Da, Fan Jiang and others, who were also extremely hungry, dared to reach out to eat.

Zhang Fei gobbled up a half-full meal, saw the cowherd baby standing in the distance, and couldn't help but be nameless in his heart, he was chased and killed all the way by the Han army like a rabbit, and he was in a bad mood, and then saw the cowherd baby, Zhang Fei suddenly had a tyrannical atmosphere, and planned to find a child's bad luck.

Zhang Da saw that Zhang Fei got up and was about to go to find trouble with the cowherd baby, he shrunk his neck and didn't dare to squeak, but Fan Jiang saw this and mustered up the courage to stop Zhang Fei and persuaded: "Three generals, we are not safe at the moment, the Han army does not know when to ......" Before the words were finished, Fan Jiang was slapped by Zhang Fei and fell to the side, Zhang Da hurriedly came over and dragged Fan Jiang aside, pinching people to wake up Fan Jiang.

At this moment, the soldier in charge of the sentry rushed back and shouted, "General, I found the Han army scouts." ”

Zhang Fei scolded when he heard this, rushed back to the bonfire and tore down a large piece of beef, then turned over and got on his horse, beckoning everyone: "Follow me." ”

"Fan Jiang, Fan Jiang, wake up, you kid." Zhang Da saw that Fan Jiang was unconscious, and hurriedly shook it.

"Zhang Da, leave him alone, let's go!" Seeing this, Zhang Fei greeted him, Zhang Da didn't dare to refute, just waited to put down the unconscious Fan Jiang, turned over and left with Zhang Fei.

Not long after, the cavalry of the brigade appeared in the place where Zhang Fei and the others had just "cooked", looking at the roast beef that had not yet been cleaned up, Dian Wei squatted down and naturally checked it, and reported to Liu Xiedao: "Lord, the beef is still warm, and the enemy has not fled far yet." ”

Liu Xie nodded, and just as he was about to give the order to continue the chase, someone discovered the situation and pulled out a child from the grass. walked up to Liu Xie and reported: "Lord, the little one found that this child was hiding in the grass with an unconscious person. ”

"Hmm. Take someone to carry the unconscious man over and stay safe. Liu Xie commanded, looked the child in front of him up and down, squatted down and asked, "Child, ask you something, are there a few defeated soldiers passing by here?" ”

The cowherd looked at the adults who were at eye level with herd, nodded and said, "Yes, yes, he, they robbed me, robbed me, my cow." ”

Liu Xie saw that the cowherd baby stretched out his hand to point to the cow on the grill, and immediately understood that Zhang Fei led someone to rob the other people's children's cattle and roast them, and hurriedly asked, "Which direction did those people go?" Did you see that? ”

"That's, there." The cow herd said and pointed in the direction of Xinye and replied.

"Lord, this person should be Zhang Fei's personal soldier, and he has fallen behind." Dian Wei came over and reported to Liu Xieyu.

"Wake him up." Liu Xie commanded.

There are many ways to wake up people, of course, the way to wake up Fan Jiang is not so gentle, a basin of cold water, a few big ears scraper, Fan Jiang woke up and turned around. Looking at the people standing around him, Fan Jiang immediately understood his current situation.

"Say, 'What is your name, and whose subordinates are you?' I don't have the patience to play with you right now. Liu Xie asked coldly.

“…… The little one is called Fan Jiang, and he is the personal guard general next to the three generals. Fan Jiang replied honestly.

"Three generals? Zhang Fei? ”

"Yes."

"How many people are there around him now? Where did you flee? ”

"When the little one fled here with the three generals, there were seven more people with the three generals, as for where did the three generals go at this time? I don't know if it's small. ”

"Huh? Dare to be hard-mouthed. ”

"Big, big, brother......" Liu Xie was just about to order someone to give Fan Jiang a little hardship, when he heard someone calling him behind him. When I looked back, it was the cowherd baby who was robbed of the cow by Zhang Fei. Child, if you don't pay special attention, I really don't know that this kid hasn't left yet.

"Is there something wrong?"

"Big, big brother, this uncle, no, not lying. Then, those people, run, flee, when they left, no, didn't take him, took him with them. He, he is, is a good man. ”

“…… Good? He saved you? ”

"Well, the one who escaped, the one who escaped, there were people in that group, some people wanted to, wanted to bully, I, the uncle stopped, stopped, knotted, and the result was, that, that person gave, hit, punched, fainted, it."

Although the cow baby stammered, the meaning was clearly expressed, as long as you listened patiently, you could understand it. Liu Xie patiently listened to the words of the cow herding baby, and understood why Fan Jiang, who had been in a coma, was lying in the grass, and it must have been the child in front of him who dragged Fan Jiang over. Looking at it this way, this kid is a good boy who knows how to repay his kindness.

"Lord, can we still chase after us?" Dian Wei came over and asked.

Hearing this, Liu Xie looked up at the sky, shook his head and said, "Don't chase it, set up camp here today, and order someone to tell Pang De and Tai Shici, and let them quickly bring the team to converge." By the way, send someone to inform Wancheng Jia Xu and ask him to lead the Fubo army to attack with Ma Chao and find a way to take Fancheng as soon as possible. ”

"Yes. So what should be done with this person? Dian Wei agreed and asked again.

Liu Xie looked at Fan Jiang and found that Fan Jiang was also looking at him nervously, shook his head and smiled, and ordered: "Let it go, since this person was easily abandoned by Zhang Fei, I am afraid that it is also insignificant to Zhang Fei, and it is useless to kill him." ”

Fan Jiang looked at Liu Xie in a daze when he heard this, he didn't expect Liu Xie to let him go so easily. Until Dian Wei stepped forward and shouted: "My lord is benevolent, let you live, don't get out of here!" ”

“…… That cowherd baby......"

"That's none of your business!"

was reminded by Fan Jiang, Liu Xie remembered that there was a cowherding baby beside him who had not been sent away. Seeing the child standing in front of the "remnant cow" secretly sad, Liu Xie couldn't help but feel a little unbearable. A cow is not a problem for Liu Xie, but it may be a big deal for a cowherding baby. Now that the cow is roasted and eaten, it is not easy for him to explain it when he returns.

"Kid, come here." Liu Xie stretched out his hand to greet the cow herding baby.

"Big, big brother, what's the matter?"

"You take this, it's enough for you to buy another cow." Liu Xie handed the cow herder a handful of five baht money. I didn't want to let the cow baby go, but I took two steps back, shook my head and said, "I, I can't, I want to." ”

"Why?" Liu Xie asked in confusion.

"I, my mother said, no, no merit, I can't be plain, I want your money."

“…… Have you ever studied? Liu Xie asked with some curiosity when he heard this.

"I, my father is still there, when he was still there, he taught, taught me. Later, my father was gone, my mother, my mother wanted to raise and support me, but I didn't, I didn't teach. The cowherd replied with a somewhat disappointed expression when she said this.

"Oh, then you don't want my money, the cow has been robbed again, how can you explain to the owner of the cow when you go back?"

“…… I, I don't, I know. ”

"Huh...... What is your name? Liu Xie had a good impression of this silly boy who looked a little silly, and asked with a smile.

"I, I was originally called, Deng, Deng Fan, later, the people in the clan said that someone had the same name as me, so I changed it and changed my name to Deng Ai." The cowherd stammered in reply.

And Liu Xie's eyes couldn't help but widen when he heard that the cow herding baby called himself Deng Ai. Deng Ai, a famous general of Cao Wei in the late Three Kingdoms, was a great hero in the destruction of Shu. If he hadn't led his troops to steal Jiangyou and come to Chengdu, Shu Han would probably be able to support it for a while. Because at that time, Jiang Wei was leading a large army to resist Cao Wei's main force, and the reinforcements sent by Eastern Wu were also coming, but because Deng Ai suddenly appeared outside Chengdu, so that Liu Chan, the emperor of Shu Han, lost his heart to resist and surrendered the city.

Liu Xie likes the Three Kingdoms, and is naturally familiar with the well-known generals of the Three Kingdoms, except for Deng Ai of Cao Wei, Jiang Wei of Shu Han, and Lu Kang of Eastern Wu, all of which were registered with Liu Xie. At present, Jiang Wei's Laozi Jiang Jian and Lu Kang's Laozi Lu Xun are both working under Liu Xie, Jiang Jian's mother-in-law has been pregnant for nine months, and it is estimated that in another ten days and a half months, the bold Jiang Wei will be born, and Lu Kang is estimated to have a while, because his Laozi Lu Xun has not yet married, but Liu Xie is ready to pay attention to this matter and strive to see Lu Kang as soon as possible. Only this Deng Ai has nowhere to look for it, Deng Ai's father is not as impressive as Jiang Jian and Lu Xun. Liu Xie's ability to remember Jiang Jian is completely because this person's name is special, and Lu Xun is the creator of the idiom of burning the company camp. But Deng Ai's father belongs to the kind of obscurity.

Except for knowing that Deng Ai's family was once a big clan in the Nanyang Xinye area, nothing else was known about the details. If you want to find Deng Ai in the vast sea of people, it is similar to looking for a needle in a haystack.

"Your name is Deng Ai?"

"Hmm." Deng Ai looked at Liu Xie, who looked a little excited, and nodded and replied.

"Huh...... Okay, great. Deng Ai, who else is in your family? Liu Xie asked Deng Aidao with a smile on his face.

"Also, there is my mother...... Big brother, I, my mother is old, ...... older"

Looking at Deng Ai's cautious and vigilant appearance, Liu Xie suddenly had the urge to beat him. What do you mean! Do you think I have a crush on your mother? I know what your mother looks like?

"At a young age, what are you thinking?" Liu Xie raised his hand and gave Deng Ai a brain jump, and said angrily.

Deng Ai cried pain, but his heart was a little calm, but he didn't understand why the amiable big brother in front of him suddenly became curious about his family background.

"Deng Ai, do you want to study?"

Study...... It was full of temptation for Deng Ai. may be influenced by his parents, Deng Ai likes to read, but because of family conditions, he can only give up reading to herd cattle for others to fill the family. So when Liu Xie asked him if he wanted to study, Deng Ai nodded almost without hesitation.

"Then you come with me to Chang'an, there, I can find a great Confucian to teach you."

“…… No, no, there is still a mother at home. ”

"You can bring your mother with you."

"I, my mother, am old...... Oops~"

"Stinky boy, do you know who I am?" Liu Xie grabbed Deng Ai's neck and asked.

"No, I don't know."

"I am the son of the Han Dynasty, and no one dares to disobey what I say. I asked you to go to Chang'an with me, so you can only follow obediently, do you understand? Don't shake your head! ”.
