28 Two more generals
Li Zhenke knew that Zhang He, Zhang He, a native of Hejian in Jizhou, a famous general in the Three Kingdoms period, was known as the Four Courtyard Pillars of Hebei under Yuan Shao, and was as famous as Yan Liang, Wen Chou, and Gao Lan. After the battle of Guandu, Cao Cao attacked Wuchao grain and grass, Zhang He gave Yuan Shao a message to lead troops to rescue Wuchao, but Yuan Shao did not listen, and listened to Guo Tu's attack on Cao Ying, regardless of Zhang He's dissuasion, and retreated after a long time. Zhang He was afraid that Yuan Shao would punish him, so he led his troops to surrender to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao knew people and made good use of them, Zhang He was reused, and he was known as the five good generals under Cao Cao. With Zhang Liao, Le Jin, Yu Ban, and Xu Huang, can you imagine how strong Zhang He's ability is?
This is a piece of gold, Li Zhen thought to himself, since he has encountered it, how can he let go of this opportunity?
Li Zhen talked to a few guards, only to see a few guards hurriedly go downstairs, and after a while, several guards each held two jars of wine and put them in front of Li Zhen's table. Zhang Fei laughed loudly when he saw the wine: "Today, the third brother finally let us have a good drink." It turned out that during the days of the journey, Li Zhen was afraid of drinking and making mistakes, so he limited the amount of alcohol, but everyone was suffocated, so Zhang Fei began to be hungry when he saw it. Li Zhen smiled and didn't answer, Zhou Cang didn't understand this situation, got up and poured three bowls, touched it with Li Zhen and Zhang Fei, and dried it up.
The two big men smelled the aroma of wine at this time, looked around, and saw several jars of wine on Li Zhen's table. The drunken man said, "What kind of wine is this?" Why is it so fragrant? Zhang He nodded. The big man shouted, "Little Er." When the second brother heard someone calling him, he hurriedly came to the table of the two and said, "Two guest officers, what else do you have to order?" The man pointed to the wine jar on Li Zhen's table and said, "What kind of wine is drinking at that table?" Why don't you give us such a good wine? The second brother squeaked: "This, this is the wine brought by those guest officers, and it has nothing to do with the shop!" Zhang He didn't look at Xiao Er's expression like a lie, after all, there was no business that didn't want to have a hot business, and said to Xiao Er: "You go up and ask, what kind of wine are they drinking?" You go buy it for us, and we will pay for the wine together. ”
The second brother came to Li Zhen's table and asked softly, "Hello guest officer, may I ask what kind of wine is this?" The one on the other side asked me to ask, and I could go out and buy it later. Li Zhen saw that Zhang He and the others were looking at them, picked up the wine bowl and took a sip of wine, and said: "This is the best wine among the immortals, a jar sells for thousands of gold, which is not something that can be bought with money." ”
When the second brother heard Li Zhen's answer, he looked at the wine in the bowl and swallowed his saliva. This is the best wine in the world! I've only heard of it before but I've never seen it, but today I can finally see it, and as the rumors say, this wine is clear and fragrant. If you can taste it, it will not be in vain! Xiao Er thought.
Saying goodbye to Li Zhen, Xiao Er came to Zhang He and said to Zhang He cautiously: "Guest officer, this smells clear, the opposite side is drinking the best wine in the immortals, this wine shop can't afford to buy the goods, you see?" The two smiled bitterly when they heard this, this is not what they can afford to drink now, waved their hands to Xiao Er, picked up the wine bowl and drank the stuffy wine.
The more they drink, the more unhappy they are, this other people's wine is currently drinking, but what they drink is bitter water, how can they still drink it. Zhang He shook his head and said, "Brother Lan, you think it's better to stop here today, I really can't drink this wine." The man also put down the bowl in his hand and sighed, "Yes! The more I drank, the more I felt the wine in my throat feel like a thorn, let's go! After saying that, the two got up and prepared to go to the checkout.
Li Zhen saw that the two of them were leaving, how could they easily let the two leave, so he stood up and said loudly: "Meeting is fate, when you meet two heroes today, it's better to have a drink together." Li Zhen looked sincere, Zhang He and the two of them heard Li Zhen's words, and looked at Li Zhen vigilantly, why did this non-relatives invite us to drink, could it be that there was another plan. But think about it again, the two of them are penniless and others can't look down on them, what's going on?
Li Zhen looked at the vigilant expressions of the two of them, and said: "I think the two of you are also very human, seeing that you didn't drink to your heart's content, I recklessly invited the two of you to drink, in fact, I just want to make friends, and I don't have any other meaning." The two of them also believed his words when they heard Li Zhen say this, and looked at each other, Zhang He was more stable after all, and shook his head at his companion.
Zhang Fei saw the actions of the two, so he put down the wine bowl, although he didn't understand why Li Zhen invited the two to drink, but the two refused Li Zhen's invitation, and they were immediately displeased, so they said angrily: "Hmph, my third brother is kind, I saw that you didn't drink well, so I invited you to join you, but your current appearance, I'm afraid that we have something to do with you." When Zhou Cang heard Zhang Fei say this, he also said angrily: "A jar of wine we drink is worth a thousand gold, what can we do to you." ”
Zhang He and the others saw that others understood their thoughts, and stood there very embarrassed.
Li Zhen looked at this and said: "Two heroes, it is Li Zhen's fault to ask each other, and I hope to forgive my sins, please sit down and have a drink." ”
Zhang He saw Li Zhen say this, and helped them resolve the embarrassment, and it was his fault to go on like this, so he came to Li Zhen's table with another person and sat down.
Seeing this, Gan Mei got up, poured wine for the two of them, and stood behind Li Zhen. The five of them drank a bowl of each other. Zhang He saluted and said: "I am Zhang He's character Junyi, this is my sworn brother Gao Lan." Gao Ran got up and waved to everyone, and Zhang He said: "Thank you for your invitation today. ”
Li Zhen thought excitedly in his heart: It's really him, and there is also a brave general Gao Lan!
In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the brave generals under Yuan Shao were called the four court pillars of Hebei together with Yan Liang, Wen Chou, and Zhang He. In the battle of Guandu, Cao Cao led his army to attack Wuchao, but Yuan Shao listened to Guo Tu's words and supported him with light cavalry, allowing Zhang He and Gao Ran to attack Cao Cao's camp, but they could not be attacked for a long time. Guo Tu framed the two of them when he failed, and the two were afraid of being guilty, so they led their troops to surrender to Cao Cao.
Li Zhen got up and poured a full bottle of wine for the two, sat down and asked, "I just saw the two of you sullen, but what happened?" The two smiled bitterly, and Zhang He said: "Alas! Nine times out of ten, life is unsatisfactory, and the two of us just didn't encounter anger for the sake of Huai, which made you laugh. ”
Li Zhen also made a wry smile and said, "It's the same end of the world!" How often we are not. As soon as Zhang He and the others heard this, they became interested, and in their opinion, people who could afford to drink a thousand gold wine would have difficulties, so they said: "Oh, how do you say this? ”
Li Zhen said the ambition in his heart, and finally said: "It's not that there is no opportunity, now I can only come out to travel." ”
When Zhang He and Gao Ran heard Li Zhen say this, they felt the same way, and the five of them drank happily.
Li Zhen saw that Zhang He and Gao Ran were now a little drunk, and felt that the heat was almost over, so he learned from Liu Bei and cried, and said: "I think I, Li Zhen, am willing to learn from General Huo Quai, and guard the territory all my life, so as not to let my Han family people be bullied by foreigners again, but my ability is limited, and I still have nothing to do, and now I want to go to Luoyang, even if I pay to buy an official, I will also be an official who guards the territory." After speaking, he paused, wiped away his tears with his sleeves, and looked at Zhang He and the others: "It's a pity that I can't write martial arts, it's hateful!" After speaking, they cried again, Zhang Fei and Zhou Cang heard Li Zhen say this, so they persuaded: "Third brother, this is not us, even if we die on the battlefield, we are willing to accompany you." Li Zhen said excitedly: "Yes, even if we die, we will die on the battlefield, so that the barbarians will no longer dare to underestimate us." ”
Zhang He and Gao Ran were already drunk at this time, and when they heard Li Zhen say this, their hearts were also boiling, after all, in that era, men were willing to learn from Wei Qing and Huo Qu to kill the Huns and break the royal court.
Zhang He blushed and said: "Brother Li is so ambitious, I don't know if I can count Zhang He's share, I am willing to go with you to kill the Huns and drink blood." Gao Ran also said anxiously: "This kind of good thing, how can it be without me, Brother Li, I am also willing." ”
Li Zhenxin said: "It's done, and I have two good generals." ”
Li Zhen stood up and said: "With two generals to help, why worry about the Huns not being destroyed." ”
