Twenty-seven Liu Bei borrowed troops to oppose Yuan Shu Lu Bu was ordered to conquer Huainan

However, it was said that Yuan Shu, Yang Hong and others coerced the young emperor of the Han dynasty to abdicate the throne, and named the young emperor as the prince of Ying. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info Yuan Shu invited it back. Liu Wei met with the Red Empress and cried about Yuan Shu's abolition of the emperor. It turned out that after Liu Wei went to Huainan, the queen of the main palace still continued to have private meetings with the thief general Chang Xuan, and Liu Wei caught the rapist in bed several times, but he couldn't help it. Finally, Liu Wei couldn't bear it anymore and complained to Liu Bei about it. Liu Bei hinted that Liu Wei could be abolished. Liu Wei then abolished the queen and appointed Hong'er, the little palace maid in the Gao Palace, as the queen. Everyone called her the Red Queen. That day, the Red Queen heard Liu Wei's complaint, and scolded Yuan Shu for being a traitor. The Red Queen said to Liu Wei: "Your Majesty, speak softly." Yuan Shu is stealing ears everywhere here, if it is reported to Yuan Shu, I am afraid that it will harm His Majesty. Your Majesty might as well meet Uncle Liu Huang secretly. The emperor's uncle will seek justice for the Han family. Liu Wei said: "Yesterday, I asked people to find Uncle Liu Huang. But it was reported that Uncle Liu Huang had gone to Xia Cai Cheng, and he didn't know when he would return. The Red Queen said, "Your Majesty has to endure it for a few more days." ”

A few days later, Liu Bei's three brothers returned to Shouchun from Xiacai, and when they heard that Yuan Shu had been proclaimed emperor, they immediately cried loudly, tears fell, and they fainted to death. Guan Yu was in a hurry and hurriedly stepped forward to rescue. Zhang Fei said: "Second brother doesn't need to panic, the eldest brother has become a habit like this, and it won't be a big problem." Liu Bei, who was fainting, was awakened by Zhang Fei's words. Liu Bei inquired again where the young emperor was. The people in the city said: "Yuan Shu has named the young emperor as the Duke of Ying, and built a mansion in Shouchun City, and there is no danger for the time being." Liu Bei Nai was a little relieved. Guan Yu said: "Yuan Shu has replaced the Han Dynasty, and we are the enemies of the Han people and Yuan Shu, or the subjects of Yuan Shu, but the eldest brother is in charge." Guan Yu's question was too sharp, and Liu Bei didn't know how to answer. In the great reputation of Uncle Liu Huang of the Han Dynasty for being benevolent and righteous, loyal and patriotic, Liu Bei should cry again, faint again, and almost go with the Han Dynasty. But Liu Bei knew very well in his heart that if this was the case, although his reputation could be guaranteed, it seemed meaningless, and the capital in his hand had already been lost, so he could only rely on Yuan Shu to survive. If he surrenders to Yuan Shu, with his powerful skills of hypocrisy, he will definitely be able to become an official in the hands of Yuan Shu, and his fame will be prominent, but it will make him infamous. Liu Bei said: "This matter is not negotiable for the time being, and after meeting Yuan Shu and the young emperor, we will make a decision." "Lord Liu Bei, who is pseudo-benevolent and unparalleled, was a little hesitant. The three of them then entered the palace to see Yuan Shu. At this time, the imperial palace in Shouchun City has been built, the scale is large, the speed is breathtaking. Yuan Shu was in the palace and the Taifu Yang Hong enjoyed a drunken dream of death, and suddenly came to report from the left and right, and Liu Bei's three brothers asked to see him. Yuan Shu said: "Liu Bei is a loyal minister of the Liu family, and I originally took him away, and I don't want to go back to Huainan." Why don't you order Zhang Xun to take someone to kill him outside the palace to get rid of future troubles. "Yang Hongyuan is the long history of Huainan, and now Yuan Shu is called the emperor, a great hero, and has been promoted to Taifu. Yang Hong said: "Liu Bei is loyal to the Han family on the surface, but in his heart he is seeking his own reputation to strengthen his strength. Now that the Han Dynasty has gone, but if there is nothing to do, it must have two hearts. Your Majesty can summon him to see him and confer on him a high-ranking official, and he will be loyal to His Majesty and will not think about Han. Yuan Shu was the plan, and ordered Xuan Liu Bei to enter the palace to see him. After waiting for Liu Bei, seeing Yuan Shuwei sitting on the dragon chair, Zhang Fei was furious, and wanted to step forward to pull Yuan Shu. Guan Yu hurriedly stopped. Liu Bei fell down in front of the hall and said, "Knock to see Your Majesty." The third brother is ignorant, please forgive your majesty. When Guan Yu saw it, he also bowed slightly. Yuan Shuling didn't have to be polite, and asked Cai Chengzhong how it was. Liu Bei said: "Liu Mi in Xia Caicheng is diligent in government and loves the people, and does not harm the people. Because Liu Mi was upright and upright, it harmed the interests of several wealthy businessmen in the city, so Yu Shouchun spread rumors and wanted to harm Liu Mi. Yuan Shu was overjoyed and rewarded Liu Mi. Liu Bei's three brothers were meritorious in the investigation, and Liu Bei and others were still in their original positions. Liu Bei is the prime minister of the Zhong family, Zhang Fei is the general of Fenwei, and Guan Yu is the general of Yangwu. The three brothers thanked the Lord for his grace and said goodbye.

The three of them left the palace and turned to Yingshang's mansion, wanting to see Liu Wei, but they were not stopped by the guards, Zhang Fei wanted to kill the guards and forcibly entered, but Liu Bei stopped them. The three of them went home first, and Zhang Fei was displeased: "Why is the eldest brother afraid of that Yuan Shu child, if I step forward, pull Yuan Shu off the dragon chair, and let the eldest brother take a seat, why not wonderful." When Liu Bei heard this, he was moved to tears. Guan Yu is much calmer than Zhang Fei, and Liu Bei said: "Is the eldest brother really obedient or a fake today." If you pretend to obey Yuan Shu, you have to make quick plans to think about how to overthrow Yuan Shu's puppet government. Zhang Fei said: "The second brother is true, the eldest brother must be pretending to obey Yuan Shu'er, and we need to make plans for Yuan as soon as possible." Liu Bei was put in the position of loyalty and righteousness by the two virtuous brothers, and he couldn't get up and down, helplessly, stubbornly, and said: "I am alone in Shouchun City, it is difficult to get things done, I want to ask Yuan Shu for orders, lead the troops out, and then Xu Zuo marches." Guan Yu said: "I see that Liu Mi is concerned about the Han family, and he is a relative of the Han family, and there is a lot of money and grain in Caicheng, so it is better to vote for Cai first." Liu Bei sighed and said: "That's the only way, I'll report to Yuan Shu first in the future." ”

The next day, Liu Bei saw Yuan Shu, first of all, the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, and praised each other; Later, Liu Bei said: "Although Liu Mi in Xia Cai City implements benevolent governance, he is weak and cannot cut out the treacherous, I am willing to take dozens of elite soldiers and then go down to Cai and his party to help Liu Mi sweep away the unsubordinate." Yuan Shu was overjoyed when he heard this, and said: "I don't know how many soldiers and horses Prime Minister Liu Cheng wants to bring?" Liu Bei said: "Fifty people are enough." Yuan Shu immediately played on the spot, and ordered Liu Bei to order fifty soldiers and horses to come out. Liu Bei came out, and Yan Xiang came out of the class and said: "Liu Bei is going here, and he must try to rebel." Yuan Shu said: "Liu is greatly gracious, and An Neng will rebel." Besides, he only ordered fifty soldiers and horses, how could he do anything. Yuan Shu was relieved to let Liu Bei go. Liu Bei received Yuan Shu's will, and ordered Zhang Fei to fly to Fuzhong to take the family and go out of the city first. Since he and Guan Yu went to the barracks to order soldiers and horses, they turned Zhang Fei outside the city, and went down to Cai. Xia Cai County ordered Liu Mi to welcome Liu Bei into the city. Liu Bei cried and complained about Yuan Shu's claim to the emperor, indicating that he swore allegiance to the Han family, opposed Yuan Fuhan, and fought with Yuan Shu to the end. Liu Mi was moved by Liu Bei, burst into tears, got up and said: "I also swear allegiance to the Han family!" There are 5,000 soldiers and horses in Xia Cai City, and I want to help make a big deal with Uncle Huang. "This is really my own family, and I have never spoken two words, five thousand soldiers and horses in one sentence. Liu Bei was moved, wept on the ground, and swore to the sky that he would get rid of the traitors and restore the Han Dynasty. Liu Bei had Liu Mi to fund the soldiers and horses, and practiced day and night outside Xia Cai City. There have long been horse exploration reports to Yuan Shu. Yan Xiang said: "Liu Bei is training soldiers and horses in Xia Cai, and he will want to rebel, and His Majesty needs to plan it as soon as possible." Yang Hong, the sycophant, was named the day before yesterday because of Liu Bei, and the official residence was the prime minister, overshadowing his limelight, and he was really unhappy in his heart, so he went out of the class and said: "Liu Bei's heart is already clear, and I hope that Your Majesty will plan it as soon as possible." Yuan Shu said: "Liu Bei doesn't know the severity, he dares to show tricks in front of me, who dares to capture Liu Bei for Cai Cheng to see me." Before he could say anything, Liu Bei's nemesis and the general of Zhengbei, Chang Feng, stepped forward and said: "The minister is willing to go!" Yuan Shu was overjoyed, and ordered Chang Xuan to command 10,000 horse infantry and go down to Caicheng to arrest Liu Bei. Tanma reported to Liu Bei. Liu Bei was shocked, and he got off Cai's soldiers and horses to meet the enemy. At the round formation of the two armies, Liu Bei replied, saying: "Why did General Chang Feng lead the army here? Chang Xuan said: "Anti-thief Liu Bei, get off the horse and descend early?" Zhang Fei was furious and shot out. Chang Feng knew that Zhang Fei was brave and fierce, and he did not dare to fight the enemy, so he ordered the archers behind the formation to be in the dark. When Zhang Fei approached, random arrows were fired. Zhang Fei had already suffered this loss, and he was also prepared, so he shot down the arrows with his spear and went back to Changfeng to kill. Chang Feng hurriedly ordered the infantry out and resisted Zhang Fei. Liu Bei waved his army to kill, but he was defeated for a while. Chang Feng retreated and set up camp. The left and right said Chang Xuan: "Although Zhang Fei is fierce, he is not invincible, and in the coming day, he can first ambush an army on the side of the road, lure Zhang Fei to, and then ambush the soldiers." "Chang Feng is in a hurry. On the next day, Chang Feng challenged Zhang Fei by name. Zhang Fei waved and snapped the horse out. Chang Feng went out to meet the enemy. Out of Sanhe, Chang Xuan really couldn't resist the enemy, and left in defeat. Zhang Fei chased after him. After chasing for more than ten miles, the ambush soldiers were exhausted, and Chang Feng also returned to his horse to cover up. Surrounded Zhang Fei in the heart. Fortunately, Liu Bei and Guan Yu led the army to rescue Zhang Fei first. Guan Yu saw that Chang Feng was in front of him, and said: "Chang Feng is helping to abuse, why should he be killed, watch me cut it." "Say goodbye to the knife and slap the horse, and chase after Chang Xuan. When Chang Yu saw Guan Yu, he came surgingly, his momentum was like a rainbow, he didn't dare to fight, so he turned his horse and left. Suddenly, a stray arrow shot at the Changfeng war horse, and the war horse suffered pain and flipped Changfeng to the ground. Guan Yu stepped forward and slashed Chang Xuan's head with a swing of the knife, but the big knife did not fall, but was stopped by Liu Bei. Liu Bei dismounted, helped Chang Feng up, and said: "General Chang get up quickly, listen to your words." Received the great favor of His Majesty, did not dare to disobey, but thought of serving His Majesty, so he asked for an order to clear the bad of Xia Cai for His Majesty. Now Cai's lawlessness has been eliminated, and Bei trained soldiers and horses for Liu Mi to guard Cai. Beishi did not dare to disobey His Majesty. I also hope that General Changyun will be strict in front of Your Majesty for me, and when Liu Bei finishes training in Xia Cai, he will go to Shouchun to apologize in front of His Majesty. "Chang Xuan's life is in Liu Bei's hands, he doesn't dare to disobey, and he promises to be strict with Yuan Shu. Liu Bei gave way. Chang Feng led the army back to Shouchun City. Because Yang Hong had a good relationship with Chang Xuan, Chang Xuan also covered up the fact that he escaped defeat.

However, he said that Tianhua had discovered the fact that Yuan Shu abolished the emperor's self-reliance, which meant that he said: "My plan has been successful!" Left and right said: "The lord can't say this, Yuan Shu said that the emperor has nothing to do with the lord." The lord shall not take the blame for his own sin, lest others will talk about it. When Tianhua heard this, he said: "I have lost this small section, and it is obvious that I have mistaken my big thing." He also said: "Yuan Shumu has no king, the emperor is self-reliant, and he is rebellious, I want to go out to fight and pass on Cheng Yu for me." "After a while, Cheng Yuzhi. Tianhua said: "Yuan Shu has been proclaimed emperor, I can send troops to fight for it." Cheng Yu said: "Don't be busy, don't be busy!" Yuan Shu is the emperor, and he has become the target of the public, and it is not the Qingzhou family that is cut down. The lord can first repair the book in Lu Bu and ask him to raise troops to fight Yuan Shu together. Lu Bu saw that it was profitable to send troops, and he would definitely send troops. Dongjun is close to Huainan and Qingzhou is far away, and Lu Bu must fight Yuan Shu first. Our army will be able to greatly reduce its losses when it arrives. Tianhua said: "I want to crusade against Yuan Shu for a long time, how can I rely on Lu Bu's strength." Cheng Yu said: "Yuan Shu has become a withered official in the grave, and he can be captured sooner or later; Jizhou Yuan Shao is the enemy of Qingzhou. The lord must not help but preserve his strength. "Tianhua is what Cheng Yuzhi said. Immediately ordered Cheng Yu to write a letter on his behalf, and ordered his confidant generals to be envoys and send it to Lu Bu. The letter is lined, Tianhua said: "Lu Bu has a new strategist, known as resourceful, I don't know who is also, if he sees through my plan, what if he persuades Lu Bu not to send troops." Cheng Yu said: "Lu Bu's new strategist is Chen Gongye, the word Gongtai, a native of Wuyang, East County, Yanzhou. He was a fierce temperament and resourceful, and made friends with well-known people at home and abroad when he was young. Now that it is back to Lu Bu, it should not be underestimated. After the last major migration, the population of Dongjun is not as good as before, and this year Yanzhou was hit by natural disasters again, and the harvest was greatly reduced. Lü Bu's army was short of food and grass, and urgently needed to expand in order to replenish it. Huainan has a lot of grain, which is suitable for Lu Bu to raise an army. I expect that Chen Gong will definitely persuade Lu Bu to take the lead in sending troops to take it. Tianhua said: "Mr. Zhongde is really wise and resourceful. There is a gentleman in Qingzhou, and Chen Gong can't do it. ”

The Tianhua letter ended up in Dongjun. Lu Bu got a letter from Tianhua, saying that the chief general Gao Shun said: "Yuan Shu has been proclaimed emperor, and Huang Shan ordered me to capture Huainan, I don't know if it is possible?" Gao Shun said: "Huang Shan wants us to be the front and create profits for Qingzhou?" I didn't think you could be a gunman for others. Wen Hou can ask Mr. Chen Gong. Chen Gong's foresight will definitely make Huang Shan's calculations fail! Lu Bu then called Chen Gongzhi. It will take a moment to Chen Gongzhi. Lu Bu read the letter with Chen Gong. It is also said that Chen Gong said: "Can you cut Yuan? Chen Gong said: "The lord wants to kill it? Want to do it? Lu Bu said: "I didn't want to go on an expedition to Huainan. What we are worried about is that our army's supply depends on the supply of Qingzhou Huangshan, and if it goes against its will, it will cut off our supply. Chen Gong said: "Huang Shan'er is extremely treacherous, Dongjun and Shanyang were destroyed by the Yellow Turban, and they were already dilapidated, but they gave these two counties to the lord, so that the lord was like picking up chicken ribs, and he couldn't choose between them." Now we have ordered our army to conquer Huainan, which is also to reap the benefits of the fishermen. Before he could finish speaking, Lu Bu said sharply: "Huang Shan is so treacherous, I will not be able to listen to his orders!" Chen Gongnai stopped Lu Bu's words and said, "My lord, listen to me." If you want Qingzhou Huang Shan not to collect the benefits of the fishermen, and can make our army quickly break away from the control of Qingzhou, you can only do this! Lu Bu was curious, and said: "But how to act, the public station quickly taught me!" Chen Gong said: "The lord quickly raised troops, attacked Huainan urgently, broke Shouchun, captured Yuan Shu, and occupied Yangzhou." In this way, our army takes the vast land of Huainan as its home, and can first attack Cao Cao to take revenge, and then fight a decisive battle with Huang Shan. When Lu Bu heard this, he silently thought about it, and said: "Gongtai's words are very good, I have made up my mind, and I will quickly send troops to Huainan to crusade against Yuan Shu." Lu Bu then raised 20,000 soldiers and horses, and made Gao Shun the vanguard, and took Zhang Liao, Cao Xing, and Cheng Lian Chen Gong to fight for thieves. Order Wei Xu, Song Xian and other heavy troops to hold Dingtao City, beware of changes in Xiahou Yuan. The army took the Mangdang Mountain, took the fine yang, crossed the Yingshui, and reached Ruyin City. Lü Bu's army entered Ruyin City, and Lü Bu swept away the granaries in the city, but it still could not solve the problem of Lü Bu's army's grain and grass. Gao Shun said: "There are a lot of rich households in Ruyin City, so it is better to borrow grain from rich households in the name of the imperial court, and then return the principal with interest when Shouchun is broken." Lu Bu said: "Since it is taken from the people, why not be thorough." When Chen Gong heard this, he was horrified and said: "It can't be like this, although our army's food and grass are urgent, it is unpopular." If the lord robs the people, then the people of Huainan will think about Yuan Shu and hate our army, which will make the good and bad things different. In my opinion, it is necessary to march into Shouchun quickly and capture Yuan Shu. One can be protected and captured by thieves, and it is sincerely the name of the country. The second can be ahead of Huang Shan's hands and monopolize the rich land of Huainan. Lu Bu said: "There are many soldiers in Huainan City, and there is enough food, and Aneng will be broken." I want to attack Yingshang County first, Xu Tu Huainan, and I will be able to win all. So he didn't listen to Chen Gong's words, but used all his troops and horses to go to Yingshang County first. Yingshang County guards Lei Bo, Xu Xuan, and Zhang Jie led the troops to meet the enemy. After the two armies finished arraying, Lu Bu stepped out and scolded the anti-thieves. Lei Bo ordered Zhang Jie to fight. Lu Bu flew out with a halberd. After the battle, Lu Bu raised a halberd and cut off one of Zhang Jie's arms. Zhang Jie fled with his horse. Lu Bu led the army to chase after him. Lei Bo rushed to lead the army and saved Zhang Jie's life. Lu Bu rushed back and forth. Yuan's army suffered numerous casualties, and was defeated and entered the city, closing its doors.

Tianhua found that Lu Bu had sent troops, and captured Xiyang, Ruyin and other counties along the road, and was driving troops to attack Yingshang County, but set up 30,000 Mabu troops, and took Xu Chu, Ji Ling, and Sun Xing to Huainan to crusade against Yuan Shu.
