said that Liu Bei, Huang Shan, and Lu Bu raised their glasses and shouted in unison: and tried to ask Yuan. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Lu Bu suddenly felt a burst of fierce scorching light shining directly on him. secretly checked around, but saw Liu Bei's second brother Guan Yu on the table, his eyes full of hatred and murderous intent. Lu Bu suddenly remembered that it was the Tiger Prison that fought against Lu Bu and stabbed him in the arm, so he wrote down the hatred. After many years, Lu Bu has long forgotten that he doesn't want Guan Yu to be deeply rooted in his heart. Guan Yu's eyes have made the first macho man in the late Han Dynasty extremely unhappy. Lu Bu also looked back at Guan Yu, his eyes were full of disdain and provocation, as if he was shouting with Guan Yu: "My subordinates are defeated, what can I do!" Guan Yu was furious, pressed the wine glass, and wanted to get up and step forward. It happened that Liu Bei noticed the abnormality and hurriedly grabbed Guan Yu in anger, but failed to cause chaos. Guan Yu was in his heart, and turned Lu Bu up and down. After the banquet dispersed, Liu Mi took the Huang and Lu families to arrange accommodation. Only the three Taoyuan brothers were left. Liu Bei blamed Guan Yu and said: "Why is the second brother so rude today, he almost ruined my big thing!" Guan Yu said: "Lu Bu is a big pain in my heart. Today, I saw Lu Bu teasing me, and it was really hard to control myself. Please forgive me, big brother. Liu Bei said: "The pain of the second brother, the eldest brother knows." How can Lu Bu have many soldiers, the eldest brother has few soldiers, and the matter of cutting Yuan depends on Lu and Huang. When Zhang Fei heard this, he shouted: "What is the difficulty of the eldest brother wanting soldiers and horses, today Lu and Huang are both in the city, and I will lead an army late at night, kill into the account of the two, and take the heads of the two." The eldest brother can collect all the soldiers and horses of the two, so why is it difficult. Liu Bei said: "The third brother can't be so reckless. Not to mention whether they can seize their military power after killing, and say that the two are not under the third brother's force, and it is difficult for the third brother to take it! Guan Yu said: "I invite Lu Bu to compete tomorrow, if I can win, I will take the opportunity to kill him, one can snow and I hate it, and the other may be for the eldest brother." Liu Bei said: "The second brother can't be like this, Lu Bu's martial arts are strong, and it's not easy to kill." He came for the righteousness, and we can no longer make the heart of the villain. Guan Yu was speechless. Liu Bei saw it, and comforted him and said: "The second brother can endure the pain for a while, he will have a chance to fight with Lu Bu one day, and the second brother can defeat Lu Bu to vent his hatred." ”

The three soldiers and horses will be in Xia Cai, and they have already reported to Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu was shocked and said: "Huang Shannai is the old enemy of our army, I don't want to raise troops to Huainan today, and I am also the soldiers of Lu Bu and Liu Bei, and Shouchun is in danger!" Then Yan Xiang and Yang Hong were summoned to discuss the matter. It takes two people to arrive. Yuan Shu asked the two of them, how could they stop the alliance of the three families. Yan Xiang said: "Although the three families are allies to conquer Huainan, they are not concentric. When Lu Bu came to Huainan, he thought of raising the army with war and solving the urgent need for food in the army. Liu Bei's rebellion, one is for his reputation for great benevolence and righteousness, and the other is to take the opportunity to expand his troops. Huang Shan's attack on Huainan is a personal enmity with His Majesty, and the land of Huainan is to satisfy his growing ambitions. The minister thought that His Majesty only needed to plan with the three families separately, and the three families would not be able to work together; At that time, His Majesty will divide his troops to attack him, and the danger of Shouchun can be solved. Yuan Shu nodded slightly. Yang Hong got up and said, "The minister thinks that Lord Yan's plan is impossible. The three soldiers and horses have been in the Xia Cai Alliance, and Shouchun is close at hand, and the morning and evening are coming, how can we wait for us. Today, in our country, there are hundreds of thousands of people with armor, and nearly 1,000 people are fighting. As long as you send a general and lead 10,000 elite soldiers, you can annihilate all the soldiers and horses of the three routes, so as to raise the prestige of the lord, so that the people of the world dare not underestimate the people of Huainan again. When Yuan Shu heard this, he couldn't help but change his heart and blood, and said: "Yang Hong's words are reasonable. I don't know who among the generals under the account can take on this great responsibility. Yang Hong said: "It has to be the general!" Yuan Shu summoned Qiao Rui to the point, and said: "Liu Bei Pifu, meet Huang and Lu, the soldiers are in Huainan, I want to make you lead the troops to ask for it, I don't know if you can do it." Qiao Rui said: "The minister is greatly favored by His Majesty, and he dares not to do it." Yuan Shu said: "I have 50,000 elite soldiers with you, and I also have Xun Zheng and Chen Ji as deputy generals, and I will go down to Cai to ask for thieves." Qiao Rui took the order and left. Qiao Rui was ordered to lead the soldiers and horses, and met Xun Zheng and Chen Ji, and the soldiers pointed directly at Xia Cai. The two camps set up outside Xia Cai City. Qiao Rui stepped out and scolded Liu Bei for being a thief. Guan Yu moved forward, please order the battle. Before Liu Bei could agree, Lu Bu rode out and shouted: "Nameless rats, do you know me Lu Fengxian!" Guan Yu gritted his teeth with hatred. Qiao Rui came out of the horse and fought with Lu Bu for 20 rounds, and was defeated timidly. Lu Bu followed closely. Qiao Rui's deputy general Xun Zheng saw it, and hurriedly stepped forward to resist Lu Bu, but before he could close, he was beheaded by Lu Bu. Liu Bei and Huang Shan swept their troops and killed. Qiaorui was defeated for a while, but more than half of the soldiers and horses were broken, and retreated to the south bank of the Huai River to defend the Huai River. Huang Shan and others crossed the river several times to attack the village, but they were all beaten back by Qiaorui. Huang Shanzhi's general Ji Ling said: "It's better to cross the river at night while it's dark." Huang Shan thought he could. Each of the three families arranged soldiers, three watches made food, and four watches marched. When the army arrived at the Huai River, the moonlight was thick, and the opposite bank was unguarded. Ji Ling hurriedly led the troops across the river. Halfway through the square, only a sound was heard, and the ambushes on both sides were exhausted. The bridge is in the east, and Chen Ji is in the west. Two pincer strikes directly killed the soldiers and horses of the coalition led by Ji Ling. Ji Ling knew the plan and grabbed the boat to cross the river. On the south bank, the bridge was ordered to release arrows. Countless people were shot into the Huai River and died. Ji Ling beckoned the defeated soldiers on the north shore and saw that Qiao Rui was arranging for ships to pursue. Ji Ling led 100 soldiers, set up a formation on the shore, and stood in front of the formation with his sword raised. Qiao Rui saw that Ji Ling was waiting for him, so he didn't dare to go ashore, so he collected his troops and went back to the camp. Ji Ling packed up the defeated army and returned to the city, Yan Qiaorui had already prepared and folded many soldiers and horses. Lu Bu was furious and wanted to kill Ji Ling. Tianhua is not allowed to protect the short. Liu Bei pretended to persuade him, but Lu Bu was not too good, so he could only give up. Huang Shan said: "Who is Qiao Rui, so good at guarding, why have you never heard of this person's name." Liu Bei said: "Qiao Rui followed Yuan Shu in his early years, but he did not have a dazzling record. Yuan Shu was called the emperor, because he was a veteran, and he was named a general. and Yuan Shu's subordinates Zhang Xun and Chang Xian were listed as the three generals of Huainan. Being able to keep Dazhai to such a point is also its super level. "Everyone was depressed because they couldn't break the bridge.

However, it was said that Qiao Rui defeated the coalition army at night and returned to the village. and Chen Ji said: "Your Majesty and I waited for 50,000 soldiers and horses, and the first battle was broken by Lu Bu, with more than half of the casualties. After retreating to the south bank, they exchanged troops one after another. There are less than 10,000 capable fighters in this camp. If this continues for a long time, I am afraid that this camp will be difficult to defend. Chen Ji said: "People can go back to the city to ask for help." "Qiao Rui is to let people go back to the city, while reporting the victory, while asking for help. When Yuan Shu heard the news, he was worried, an army of 50,000 had been reduced to 40,000 in just a few days, and Yuan Shu remembered Yan Xiang's plan and summoned Yan Xiang to. Yuan Shu said to Yan Xiang: "The day before yesterday, I didn't use Lord Yan's strategy, so that tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were lost. The crisis in Dazhai will be broken today, I don't know if I can use it again? Yan Xiang said: "It's not too late to make amends." Now His Majesty can send troops and horses to support Qiaorui again, and order him to defend the Huai River to the death, and not let the coalition troops cross the river for half a step. Then secretly to the three household schemes. Yuan Shu said: "Among the three families, who can plan first." Yan Xiang said: "Lu Bu is greedy and unwise, his personality is changeable, and he is suitable for the plan, so he can separate this person first." The minister then made an envoy for His Majesty, and secretly went to Lu Bu's camp, first talking about Lu Bu, and then making a plan. Yuan Shu agreed.

That night, Yan Xiang took his relatives and entered the Qiaorui camp. Yan Xiang asked Qiao Rui, "Where is Lu Bu's camp?" Qiao Rui said: "A battalion in the southwest corner of Xia Cai City is Lu Bu's battalion; The first battalion in the southeast corner is the camp of Huang Shan. Yan Xiang said goodbye to Qiaorui, drove the light boat to the north shore, and went to the southwest camp. At this time, Lu Bu and other senior generals stayed in the city, and Cao Xing guarded the camp. The soldiers of the garrison captured Yan Xiang and handed it over to Cao Xing. Cao Xing saw that it was Yan Xiang, and knew that he had sent food to Lu Bu the day before yesterday, so he scolded and said, "What did you do when you stole to my camp? If you don't tell the truth, you will be beheaded! Yan Xiang said: "I have something important to ask to see Lu Wenhou." Cao Xing said: "My general has rested, you have something to explain quickly." Yan Xiang whispered: "I came to General Lu for food and grass." I wonder if you still need the grain and grass you gave the day before yesterday? I also hope to have an interview with General Lu on this matter. Cao Xing knew that this matter was very important, and Nami asked Lu Bu to go to the city. Lu Bu went to the camp to see Yan Xiang. Lu Bu said: "What is the matter with Lord Yan again?" This is not the case today. Today, the three families will be in alliance, and I am not alone in advancing and retreating. Yan Xiang said: "My lord Yuan Shu ordered me to come, but I asked General Lu if he needed grain and grass!" My lord is willing to fund 100,000 yuan of grain and grass, I don't know what General Lu wants? Lu Bu hesitated in his heart, turned around and remained silent. When Yan Xiang saw it, he replied and said, "If there are 200,000 Hu, what is General Lu's mind?" Lu Bu thanked him: "So there is Lord Lao Yan." Yan Xiang returned the salute and said: "No need to be polite, I hope that General Lu can forgive the Huainan Army a thing or two!" After that, he said goodbye to Lu Bu. The next day, the three discussed marching. Lu Bu just couldn't shirk it. Liu Bei and Huang Shan were puzzled, so they failed to march. Lu Bu led the people back to the camp. Chen Gong saw that Lu Bu was abnormal today, and guessed that Lu Bu must have been bribed by Huainan. He entered Lu Bu's tent and asked Lu Bu: "What is the general doing with the Huainan army again?" Lu Bu said: "What's the matter? The three families eat together, how can I be allowed to grow alone. How can you know what I am concerned about? Needless to say, step back. Chen Gong was helpless and sighed and retreated.

For several days, Lu Bu used the excuse of procrastination and did not participate in the march. Qiao Rui reported to Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu said to Yan Xiang: "Doctor Yan's plan is also successful." I don't know what to do next. Yan Xiang said: "After Lu Bu, it can be said that Liu Bei." Yuan Shu said: "Liu Bei wants to rebel for a long time, and An can be tricked." Yan Xiang said: "Liu Bei has always had great ambitions, but he was unlucky and repeatedly defeated. Those who are moved by it will also turn over the capital. If Your Majesty lures him with a county, he will be decided. Yuan Shu said: "This is true. I should repair a book with Liu Bei, and allow it to be the land of the Lujiang River. Yuan Shu then took up the pen and prepared an edict. The book said: "Xuande is my brother." The day before yesterday, my brother went down to Cai to train his troops, but Lu Bu and Huang Shan attacked one after another. He actually threatened his brother. The younger brother was forced to have no choice but to forge an alliance with the thief. He is the soldier of his late brother, and he is not capable of attacking the two thieves, so he is afraid that his brother will be disadvantaged. Recently, the Lujiang thieves have been pacified. The elder brother wants to make the younger brother the Taishou of Lujiang, and when Cai's affairs are calmed down, he can go to Lujiang to take office. There are endless books, and I will talk about them later. "After the book, call the left and right henchmen, reward him with gold and silver, and make it sure to hand it over to Liu Bei, but not let Guan and Zhang know. The confidant took the order and left. Liu Bei got the book and was overjoyed. It was the messenger who said: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, Liu Bei will do it himself!" The messenger took his leave. The next day, Liu Bei and Lu Bu did not arrive, only Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stood inside. Tianhua asked Guan Yu and said, "Uncle Liu Huang is not here today, can General Guan know the reason?" Guan Yu said: "I don't know." My eldest brother always arrives early every time the army is in the council, but today I don't know why. "The alliance is missing two of the three, and there is no one to discuss Tianhua, so I went back to the camp. Liu Mi saw that Liu Bei had not come out, but went to see Liu Bei with Guan and Zhang. Liu Bei said: "Don't be surprised by the three brothers, I don't come out today, it's for selfishness." Huang Shan and Lu Bu both have tens of thousands of troops here. Enterprising things can be carried forward by the two of them. I should preserve my strength, and when Shouchun City is broken, there will be soldiers to protect the young emperor. My selfishness, you are not to blame. Liu Bei put the young emperor in front and skillfully covered up the fact that he did not send troops. The three of them were no longer puzzled.

Yuan Shu saw that both plans were successful, so he said to Yan Xiang: "There is only Huang Shan's ear left in the alliance. Huang Shanshi is the strongest of the three, if he can't retreat, the danger of Shouchun still can't be solved. Yan Xiang said: "Huang Shan's personality is strange and difficult to understand, and he has a personal enmity with His Majesty, which is really the most difficult. If not, His Majesty will issue an edict with him, saying that the land of Xuzhou is rich, and Xuzhou Mu Taoqian is old and dim, and persuade him to take Xuzhou, or he can be tempted. Yuan Shu said: "I have to act like this." I hope it will be receiving. Then he wrote another book, which said that the land of Xuzhou, a hundred times that Huainan was left, and it was extremely easy to take, and he persuaded Huang Shan to return to the army. He praised Huang Shantian upside down, saying that the former was his own fault. After the book was finished, he ordered the man to send it to Huang Shan. The man had already done it, Yuan Shu was bottomless in his heart, and asked Yan Xiang again: "What if Huang Shan refuses to retreat?" Yan Xiang said: "You can only retreat two ways first, and fight all the way." ”

But he said that Huang Shan got the edict of Yuan Shu, and said with a secret smile: "I said that why Lu Bu and Liu Bei were passive and slacked off the war recently, it was originally a plan to change the situation. Yuan Shu shouldn't be, shouldn't be used for me. Such a bad plan, Ann can hide it from me. I'm going to break it. So he asked people to hold a banquet in their own camp and invite Liu Bei and Lu Bu to get together in the camp. Liu Bei and Lu Bu didn't know what they meant, so they all went to the Qingzhou camp for a banquet. After three rounds of wine, Tianhua raised the wine glass and said: "Lu Wenhou and Uncle Liu Huang don't know if the two of them know what the three of us said when they were discussing the Yuan Alliance that day." Liu Bei said: "Three-way soldiers and horses, forge ahead together." Tianhua laughed and said, "Uncle Liu Huang really has a good memory." I was afraid that someone would forget this, so I set up a banquet for the two of you to relive the banquet of the alliance. Liu Bei and Lu Bu were frightened, and they both said: "An Neng has forgotten his original intention, General Huang, please don't worry too much." Tianhua said: "This is very good." Yuan Shu is a despicable villain, don't take what he promises seriously, don't be tempted by it, and lose our big things to beg for thieves. The two drank a few more glasses and went back to the camp.

However, when Liu Bei went to the banquet, he didn't know what Huang Shan meant, so he didn't tell Guan and Zhang, and went to the banquet alone. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei disappeared from their eldest brother in the city, so they searched around. The gatekeeper Shiyun, Uncle Liu Huang went out of the city. Zhang Fei said: "Could it be that the eldest brother went out of the city to find Lu Bu." Lu Bu is a wolf, and it will be dangerous for the eldest brother to go alone, so it is better to go to Lu Bu's camp to meet the eldest brother. And when they had made up their minds, they went southwest. Not far away, that is, he wanted Lu Bu to return to the camp. Zhang Fei shouted, "Lu Bu, where are you going to be my eldest brother?" Lu Bu was silent and continued to move forward. Zhang Fei hurriedly stopped in front of Lu Bu and said, "Sneaky, don't dare to answer, it can't hurt my eldest brother." Lu Bu sneered and said, "It's ridiculous, you don't see your eldest brother, what do you have to do with me." Zhang Fei said: "The day before yesterday, you repeatedly shirked and refused to meet the enemy, not to have an affair with Yuan Shu, but today you sneakily greeted you, there must be something strange." Lu Bu said: "I can't shirk it, Liu Bei is not." Get out of the way, or don't blame me for being ruthless. When Zhang Fei heard this, he picked up the Zhangba snake spear and was about to start a war. Guan Yu's voice came from behind: "Third brother, step down, let me come here." Lu Bu saw that it was Guan Yu again, and he was even more upset, so he said: "My subordinates are defeated, what face do you have to fight with me." If you are interested, you should retreat early, so as not to bring humiliation on yourself. Hearing this, Guan Yu raised the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, opened the Danfeng eyes, raised the eyebrows of the lying silkworm, shouted, and rode forward to fight Lu Bu.
