Liu Bei followed Cao Cao's class, and only Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Chen Zhi, Mi Zhu, Jian Yong and others and three thousand soldiers and horses were behind him, these were Liu Bei's descendants, and they followed Liu Bei to fight in the east and west, and they have been following Liu Bei.

Zhang Fei said, "Big brother, we helped Cao Cao kill Lu Bu and capture Xuzhou. This Cao Cao is good, only gave the eldest brother a false name of Yuzhou Thorn History, we now have no foothold, the grain and grass of these 3,000 soldiers and horses still depend on Cao Cao, isn't this clearly subject to others? ”

Liu Bei glared at him, "It's just you." When I returned to Beijing this time, I had to meet the emperor in person, and there would be a reward at that time. You remember to me that you must be patient when you encounter something, and don't make another incident. When the opportunity came, our brothers naturally got out of the cage and let the birds fly in the sky. ”

Zhang Fei snorted and said, "By the way, big brother, why don't you see Zilong." I haven't seen him since I stormed Xiapi that day. ”

Liu Bei whispered, "I have important things to arrange for him, you remember not to talk about Zilong in front of others in the future." He is new to Xuzhou, many people don't know him, and the people who leave our Cao Cao will naturally not pay attention. ”

Zhang Fei was very curious and wanted to ask Liu Bei what was the matter, but Liu Bei didn't say a word. Zhang Fei had no choice but to go, and Guan Yu suddenly said behind Liu Bei, "Big brother, our entry into Beijing this time is tantamount to entering the Longtan Tiger's Den, and it will be difficult to get out of trouble in the future." If you have a move, why don't you leave now. ”

Liu Bei smiled, now he wants to dominate the world, "If we don't rely on strength, or we don't rely on reputation, we are compared to Cao Cao, Yuan Shao has shortcomings in all aspects, how can we call on the heroes of the world to listen to my orders in the future?" This time I went to the capital, I just wanted to seize the opportunity of the emperor and make my reputation visible to the world. When the time comes, it will not be the situation it is today. ”

Zhao Yun took Chen Gong out of the city that day, but Chen Gong was unwilling to serve Liu Bei. Zhao Yun was not embarrassed by Chen Gong according to Liu Bei's instructions, but said that no matter where Chen Gong went, he would definitely protect him, and he would not go back to restore his life until he was safe.

Chen Gong originally thought that if he didn't vote for Liu Bei, Liu Bei would order Zhao Yun to kill him, but he didn't expect it to be the case. He had the heart to go to Tancheng to find Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, but when he thought about it, it would be difficult to succeed with these two martial artists. He wanted to go north to vote for Yuan Shao and continue to fight against Cao Cao. But when he thought about Yuan Shao's personality again, he secretly shook his head.

Later, I thought that since there was nowhere to go in the Central Plains, it was better to go south to see who was the master who could be protected. However, it was inconvenient for him to tell Zhao Yunming, he only said that he was disheartened and wanted to return to the countryside, and asked Zhao Yun to send him to Guangling to find relatives.

Zhao Yun escorted Chen Gong to Huaiyin, and saw that Chen Gong really had relatives here, so he left ten taels of gold as a gift and said goodbye to Chen Gong.

Liu Bei's desire to recruit Chen Gong was also a temporary idea, and he was not sure that he would be able to make Chen Gong loyal to him in this situation. I just hope to bury a foreshadowing and form a good fate.

The real purpose of Zhao Yun's trip was Chen Lan and Lei Bo, who were stationed in Guangling. On the same day, Liu Bei attacked Guangling, and he had already discussed with Chen Lan and Lei Bo, and these two were willing to surrender to Xuzhou and submit to Liu Bei, but Lu Bu attacked Xiapi and Liu Bei returned to his division in a panic, so the matter was delayed.

Liu Bei naturally didn't expect these two to be submissive to him now, but sending Zhao Yun was a subdued chess in their army. After Yuan Shu became emperor, he acted perversely, making the heavens angry and resentful. His people were displaced, many died of starvation, and his soldiers were often in arrears.

First Sun Ce rebelled against Yuan Shu and established himself in Jiangdong, and later Cao Cao, Liu Biao, Sun Ce, Liu Bei, and Yang Feng came to crusade against Yuan Shu, and the war continued.

Liu Bei arranged for Zhao Yun to be here so that one day, when he got out of trouble and left Beijing, he would be able to master this force.

***********************************************************************

Ji Ling led 20,000 troops to assist Xiapi, but he did not advance or retreat for hundreds of miles from the city, mainly because Yuan Shu couldn't make up his mind. Now that the city of Xiapi is broken and Lu Bu is dead, it naturally makes no sense for Ji Ling to stay in the local area. He led his troops to retreat south, and the last stronghold that came north to help before was Xiaqiu City, where Ji Ling left two thousand soldiers and horses to guard, thinking that the grain and grass were relayed, so Ji Ling withdrew his troops to Xiaqiu first.

After Ji Ling replenished the grain and grass in Xiaqiu, he left 5,000 soldiers and horses to guard Xiaqiu, preparing to withdraw to his defensive position in Zhongli. But an order from Yuan Shu made him change his itinerary immediately.

Tian Jing, the general of the expedition to the north, led 10,000 troops, and now he has arrived in Xiang County, preparing to attack Chengfu County. Liu Pi and Gong Du, who had newly invested in Yuan Shu, were originally rogues, although they were supported by Yuan Shu's food and grass equipment, but they were still vulnerable, and after the defeat, they shrank in the city and sent 100,000 people to ask Yuan Shu for help.

Yuan Shu saw that only Ji Ling was closest to the city father, and the generals he could take were Ji Ling and Zhang Xun. He ordered Ji Ling to go to support.

Now the situation in Runan is also strange, the Zhendong general Yang Feng occupies the northwest of Runan, and Yuan Shu actually controls the southeast of Runan, and by absorbing Liu Pi, Gong Du and others, the military strength of Runan has been increased.

Emperor Xian originally arranged Yang Feng to Runan in order to deal with Yuan Shu, but he knew that this Yang Feng was really Yang Feng and Yin violated, and he secretly communicated with Yuan Shu, forming a tacit understanding. Even if there are one or two battles, I advance and you retreat, and then you advance and I retreat, there are no casualties, just like acting.

Both sides even connived at Liu Pi and Gong to plunder the people in the middle of the ground, thinking that they would be a buffer.

Now Yuan Shu was beaten by Sun Ce in the southeast and lost ground everywhere, and the attack on Xuzhou on the northern front was ineffective, in order to put gold on his face, he recruited Liu Pi and Gong Du, and named him as the general of the expedition to the west and the general of the sweep of the north, and supported them with grain and grass.

Tian Jing, the general of the expedition to the north, was called to the south, and met Yang Feng and Han Xian in Pingyu. They were old acquaintances, and they also had a deep holiday, so as soon as this face-saving entertainment passed, Tian Jing immediately asked to be stationed in Xiangcheng.

Tian Jing consulted with Yang Feng, and he was responsible for attacking the city father in the east, Longkang and Huxian; Yang Feng was responsible for attacking Xincai, Xinxi, and Ruyin in the south. Occupy the entire territory of Runan first, and then attack Yuan Shu's Lujiang.

Yang Feng is not stupid, if he can expand his territory, he is naturally willing, even if Tian Jing lays more places, his foundation in Hedong cannot be stationed in Runan. Yang Feng was originally reluctant to expand, because he was unwilling to clash head-on with Yuan Shu and lose his strength in vain.

Now it seems that the imperial court is going to deal with Yuan Shu with all its might, and it is a good thing to take the opportunity to expand its strength under the current situation. Therefore, Yang Feng wanted to dispatch troops and let Han Xian lead 10,000 troops south to Xincai to make a show. If Tian Jing's attack went well, Yuan Shu would definitely gather heavy troops to deal with Tian Jing, and he would take the opportunity to seize Xincai and other counties. If Tian Jing's attack did not go well, then he naturally fought and returned to Pingyu as a pretence.

After Tian Jing arrived in Xiangcheng, Hu Cai immediately appeared. He had already gone to see Liu Pi and Gong Du in advance, and they were persuaded by Hu Cai to have the heart to serve Tian Jing, but they didn't know when they would have the opportunity. Tian Jing sent them grain and grass before, and they were also very grateful. When Tian Jing arrived in Xiangcheng, the two immediately decided to surrender and dedicate the city to Tian Jing.

However, Tian Jing stopped them and asked them to immediately ask Yuan Shu for help, and Tian Jing wanted to catch a big fish in this city. Tian Jing asked Wang Ping to lead a battalion of soldiers and horses to camp under the city father, and he did not attack the city, but only challenged in front of the celebrity formation every day.

Liu Pi and Gong both failed for two days in a row and did not dare to go out of the city, but they just hung their exemption cards, but waited for Ji Ling's rescue.

Ten days later, Ji Ling's army of 15,000 arrived and camped under the city father. Ji Ling went into the city to meet Liu Pi and Gong Du and asked about the war in the past few days. He said to the two, "Don't worry, I have led 15,000 troops this time, and there are still 5,000 soldiers and horses in your city. Not only must we win, but we must also completely disperse them and capture Xiangcheng. ”

Early in the morning of the second day, Ji Ling invited to fight in front of the array, and Wang Ping personally went out to occupy only twenty he, but he was not Ji Ling's opponent. Wang Ping withdrew to the army, Ji Ling ordered people to take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, Wang Ping could not command, and the whole army was defeated and withdrew fifty miles.

Ji Ling is also a steady general, and he is afraid that there will be ambushes and dare not chase after him. After chasing thirty miles, he withdrew his troops and returned to the city father. That night, Liu Pi and Gong Du ordered cattle to be slaughtered and sheep slaughtered, and prepared a thousand Tan of fine wine to reward Ji Ling and his sergeants.

When Ji Ling arrived at the city father, he defeated Tian Jing's soldiers and horses in just one battle, and his heart was happy. In addition, Liu Pi and Gong were both persuaded to drink diligently, and he thought that he would have to win over these two people in the future, and it would be inconvenient to thin their face, so he drank happily.

After drinking, Ji Ling was a little drunk and went back to his Chinese army tent to rest. Liu Pi and Gong both took the opportunity to say goodbye and return to the city. That night, Wu Xi led 3,000 cavalry and ambushed not far from the Ji Ling camp. As soon as the hour was over, he immediately rushed to the camp. As soon as these 3,000 cavalry entered the camp of Ji Ling, they set fire to all sides, and then went straight to the big tent of the Chinese army, killing people all the way, and wanted to capture Ji Ling alive.

Ji Ling was originally asleep in the tent, but his own soldiers broke into the tent and woke up Ji Ling. Although Ji Ling was still a little confused, he immediately rushed out of the big tent with his own soldiers and went out to organize the defense of soldiers and horses.

However, after the 3,000 cavalry of Wu Xi, there were still 3,000 foot soldiers, all of whom were armed with swords and shields, and they were unstoppable. Ji Ling saw that he couldn't organize a defense, and this big camp couldn't hold it, so he led his cronies to retreat to the city father. When he got to the bottom of the city, he shouted to open the door.

Liu Pi and Gong Du were already waiting in the city, but they pretended not to know what was happening. Hearing that Tian Jing's soldiers and horses were coming, they said that they were afraid that the enemy would take the opportunity to enter the city and did not dare to open the door.

Ji Ling was furious, and finally decided to send the general men and horses behind him to line up to block the enemy, and half of the men and horses entered the city. Liu Bi and Gong Du reluctantly opened the door.

Ji Ling saw the city gate open and immediately entered the city. But as soon as he entered the city, he felt that his horse had stumbled, but he had tripped over a rope. When he got up and looked again, there was a knife and axe hand holding a big knife on his neck. And the city gate behind him suddenly closed at this time, and most of his soldiers did not come in, and those who came in by luck were now shot into hedgehogs by Liu Pi and Gong Du's people.
