Summary of the previous chapter: Cai Mao got Liu Cong's talisman and took it to Ma Xiaoquan to invite Ma Xiaoquan to make treasures together, and Ma Xiaoquan agreed

When Liu Bei heard this, ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ shook his head and said, "Jing Sheng entrusted his two sons to me before his death, and thanks to his kindness in taking me in, how could I do such a treacherous thing?" No, absolutely not! ”

Zhuge Liang also persuaded: "Lord, Cao Cao has stepped on Xinye, and has already marched into Wancheng, if we take advantage of the situation to seize Xiangyang, the governing place, and then under the banner of anti-Cao, even if we can't fight Cao Cao, there is a chance to escape, lord, I hope the lord will think twice!" ”

Liu Bei frowned, thought for a while, and then shook his head and said, "No, absolutely not, I must not do such a rebellious thing!" ”

Guan Yu Zhang Fei stepped forward, and said in unison with red eyes: "Big brother? You"

Liu Bei pulled out his sword with a "Qiang" and glared at everyone: "If you have too many words, don't blame me for being ruthless!" You don't have to say more! I've made up my mind! ”

Everyone was unwilling, but Liu Bei had already made up his mind, so it was not good to say anything.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hahaha laughter outside the council hall.

Liu Bei was already very angry, and when he heard the laughter, he shouted: "Come on, let me arrest the people outside the door!" ”

Before anyone could make a move, a handsome man with purple hair flashed outside the door.

"Huh?" Liu Bei was stunned for a moment: "Lord Shangxian? ”

The purple-haired man laughed: "Xuande, I haven't seen you for a while, haha"

Liu Bei suppressed the anger in his heart, stepped forward and arched his hand and said, "It's really a coincidence that Lord Shangxian came, that Cao Cao"

Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand: "I know, Xuande, I know that you will not agree to seize Jingzhou, so I am here to help you." ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Lord Shangxian, what should I do?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan pretended to think deeply for a while, and then said slowly: "Run!" ”

Liu Bei smiled bitterly: "Hehe, Lord Shangxian, this is the help you gave me?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "Xuande, let me ask you, if you escape, where will you choose to flee to?" ”

Liu Bei thought for a moment and said, "I don't know either!" ”

Ma Xiaoquan smiled slightly, turned his head and asked Zhuge Liang: "Kong Ming, what do you think?" ”

Zhuge Liang thought for a while, stepped forward and arched his hand: "My lord, Lord Shangxian, I think we should flee to Xiakou to join Liu Qi first, and then unite with Jiangdong Sun Quan."

Zhuge Liang summarized his thoughts in short words, and when Liu Bei heard it, his eyes lit up and said, "Can this work?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan looked at Liu Bei's flickering eyes and said with a smile: "Xuande, your eyes betrayed yourself, hehe, it is imperative, do you have any other choice?" ”

Liu Bei smiled and shook his head.

"Then let's go now!"

Liu Bei asked Ma Xiaoquan: "What about you, Lord Shangxian?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan said: "Something will happen to you halfway, well, I will help you!" ”

"Lord Shangxian, why do you want to help me, are you and Cao**"

Ma Xiaoquan shook his head: "Ben Xian said, your life should not be extinguished, and you Liu Xuande is not a thing in the pool, one day, you must be able to have your own territory, hehe Xuande, don't be happy too early, what Ben Xian did is also a fate, you don't have to worry too much!" ”

Liu Bei nodded, and led Zhuge Liang and the others to deploy the work.

In the left eye, Yuan suddenly said: "Soul light Ma Xiaoquan, you can really make it up!" What is a hit number? ”

Ma Xiaoquan responded: "What is the meaning of editing, is this obviously history?" Am I following the wheel of history and moving forward? ”

"Huh~~Poor mouth~"

That night, Liu Bei led his troops to leave Fancheng.

From Fancheng to Xiakou, it is necessary to choose a route that is different from the direction of Cao Cao's march. Since Cao Cao was starting from Xinye, Ma Xiaoquan built yì Liu Bei took a slight detour.

In this regard, Zhuge Liang and others also deeply agreed, marched all the way, and on the night of the third day, Liu Beijun arrived at the city of Xiangyang.

Liu Bei personally stood under the city and shouted to see Liu Cong, but unfortunately, Liu Cong, this kid, was extremely frightened, not only was the city gate closed, but he didn't even have the courage to stand on the city wall to see Liu Bei.

Liu Bei was unwilling, and shouted to the city: "Liu Cong, come out to meet me, I want to ask you, in the end"

The city was silent.

Liu Bei scolded angrily: "Jingzhou has people like you, which led to the fall of thieves"

Liu Bei's shouting and scolding not only did not meet with the refutation in the city, but instead resonated with the people in the outer city, and in an instant, a large number of people decided to leave with Xuande Gong.

In the inner city, Liu Cong hid in the quilt, trembling and asked Mrs. Cai outside the quilt: "Mother, is Liu Bei gone?" ”

Mrs. Cai shook her head: "Not yet, but it shouldn't come in!" ”

On the side, Cai Mao spat and foamed: "Just a Liu Bei, what are you afraid of, let me go out and teach him a lesson!" ”

Mrs. Cai scolded: "Don't you think you're not good enough? Come back! ”

Cai Mao just wanted to go back, but when he thought that he was now the prime minister's subordinate, he said: "I am now the commander of the prime minister's army, you can't order me!" With that, Cai Mao rushed out of the room with a sword

Liu Bei scolded enough, but he was still angry in his heart. Just as he was thinking about scolding after a while, the inner city gate suddenly opened, and immediately after, a group of light cavalry rushed out and went straight in his direction.

Liu Bei was shocked, but it was too late.

"Big Brother"

"Big Brother"

"The Lord"

Seeing that the spear of a golden helmet general was about to pierce himself, he saw a purple fluttering figure flickering, and then, Liu Bei only heard a "poof", and the scene was quiet for a moment.

Cai Mao has a big mouth, and she can't figure it out, and now her neck is being pinched by Lord Shangxian.

"Lord Shangxian, you?"

Ma Xiaoquan snorted coldly: "Deju, order all your people to withdraw!" Right away! ”

Cai Mao was unwilling, but on one side, he saw that the other hand of Lord Shangxian was burning with crimson flames, and immediately shouted at the light cavalry behind him: "Stop, all for Lao Tzu to go back, quickly!" ”

Liu Bei was shocked, at this time, Guan Zhang and Zhao had already surrounded them, and seeing that Ma Xiaoquan had subdued Cai Mao at once, the three of them pulled out their swords, wanting to take the opportunity to kill Cai Mao.

With a "boom", Ma Xiaoquan threw out a crimson flame belt in front of the three of them.

The three of them were stunned for a moment and obediently stopped.

Ma Xiaoquan let go of the hand that was pinching Cai Mao's neck, extinguished the flame on his other hand and said, "De Jue, have you forgotten what you promised me about it?" ”

Cai Mao thought for a moment and said, "But Lord Shangxian, Liu Bei, if I take Liu Bei's head, the prime minister will definitely be."

"Smack~" Before Cai Mao finished speaking, Ma Xiaoquan slapped Cai Mao squarely in the face.

Cai Mao looked at Ma Xiaoquan in horror.

Ma Xiaoquan scolded: "There are some things, don't do it too much, understand?" ”

Cai Mao was furious in her heart, but when she thought of the hand that Lord Shangxian had pulled off from her horse just now, she had no choice but to suppress the anger and snort lowly.

"Get out!" Ma Xiaoquan kicked Cai Mao.

Cai Mao got up from the ground and rode away with hatred.

Ma Xiaoquan turned his head and said to Liu Bei: "Xuande, as the lord, don't be too dangerous, understand?" ”

Liu Bei patted his chest and thanked: "Thank you, Lord Shangxian, remember!" ”

"Hmmm! Take a break, let's leave as soon as dawn is up! ”

"Yes!"

At dawn the next day, Liu Bei led the military and civilian brigade to Xiakou.

Xiangyang is not far from Dangyang, and to Xiakou, it is the closest and safest road to walk from Dangyang.

Liu Bei's original intention was to bypass Dangyang and take the waterway, but the sudden increase in a large number of people in Xiangyang forced Liu Bei to change his original intention and choose to take Dangyang, of course, taking Dangyang is also highly recommended by Ma Xiaoquan.

Liu Bei asked: "Lord Shangxian, why do you recommend me to go to Dangyang?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan said: "The first route from Dangyang to Xiakou is the closest, don't you deny this?" ”

Liu Bei nodded.

"Besides, so many people are following you, not to mention the boats, we are already short of food or something, can we still take the waterway under such conditions?"

Liu Bei hummed and said, "Indeed, I didn't expect so many people to be willing to follow me." ”

Zhang Fei stepped forward and whispered: "Big brother, why do you want to take these people with you, you know, if we go quickly, it won't take much time to reach Xiakou, but if you take these people, it will be a maximum of 20 miles a day." ”

Liu Bei Zhengse said: "Third brother, these people gave up the good life in Xiangyang and volunteered to run with me, as a courtier, they should take responsibility, and they would rather let the people of the world bear me, and I can't bear the people of the world." ”

Zhang Fei was helpless and didn't dare to say anything more, so he had to retreat to the side and sulk.

Guan Yu cast a look at Ma Xiaoquan for help, Ma Xiaoquan shook his head, saying that he would not persuade him, Guan Yu was helpless, so he had to wave his hand and stop talking.

The large army marched for a day, and only walked about fifteen miles, which was slower than a snail.

Zhuge Liang and others persuaded Liu Bei to give up the people many times, and led the light cavalry to Xiakou to meet Liu Qi first, and then go to Jiangling, but Liu Bei didn't listen, and he had to pull this group of people with him in life or death.

On the other hand, Cao Cao had already taken Wancheng by the way.

The spies came to report that Liu Bei went to Xiangyang, Cao Cao immediately made a decision and immediately led the army to Xiangyang to intercept Liu Bei, but unfortunately, when he arrived in Xiangyang, he heard that Liu Bei had left.

Cao Cao asked Liu Cong: "Why don't you delay for a while, wait for me to come and capture Liu Bei?" ”
