Chapter Seventy-Eight: Zhang Fei made trouble in the barracks
In this era when iron smelting is not very developed, having weapons and armor is equivalent to owning soldiers! With soldiers, you can conquer the city and never be constrained by others!
So in Tan County, Zhang Fei frequently provoked, and Tao Ying endured it. He knew that now was not the time for infighting, Cao Cao was in Huben, and it wouldn't be long before he made a comeback.
So in order not to get into trouble with Liu Bei, Tao Ying beckoned Jiang Ban and shouted: "Wen Ze, you go and return the spoils that belong to General Liu to the general!" Yu Banyan heard this, and he was a little unwilling in his heart, he served as a pioneer under Cao Cao, broke Tao Qian, beat Liu Bei, chased Cao Bao, and the people of Xuzhou who beat him lost their temper, and now a little Zhang Fei dared to provoke him!
But the second son, a dignified son, swallowed his anger here, how could he not bear it if he was a general? Everything could only be endured, so Yu Ban could only go back and divide the loot into two parts, one for Liu Bei.
When it was not too much to divide the spoils, Yu Ban had already kept all the best for himself, and the bad ones were given to Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei came to get the spoils, and when he saw that all he got was a pile of rags, he was unhappy, and he was about to stab Yu Ban when he picked up his spear, where was Yu Ban afraid of him, in Tao Ying's camp, there were so many of Yu Ban's men, Yu Ban waved his hand, and hundreds of soldiers instantly surrounded Zhang Fei's soldiers and horses.
Zhang Fei wanted to resist, but under the order of the ban, the soldiers rushed down with arrows, and Zhang Fei's soldiers could not resist, and they all fell.
Zhang Fei hurriedly wanted to escape, Yu Ban let the soldiers and horses surround him, Zhang Fei stabbed with a spear, and after stabbing five or six soldiers to death in a row, Yu Ban was furious, raised the bow and arrow in his hand and was about to shoot him!
But fortunately, at this time, I heard that the military camp was fighting, and Tao Ying and others hurried over. Seeing that Tao Ying was coming, Yu Ban asked his subordinates to put down their bows and arrows.
Liu Bei also came to reproach Zhang Fei, Zhang Fei led dozens of people to dare to spread wild in the camp of more than 5,000 people, he really didn't know whether he was alive or dead! I always feel that I am invincible in the world after drinking a little wine, the soldiers are beaten by him, and the soldiers are not convinced by him, and now I come to the second son to find fault, I don't have the same knowledge as him, but I feel that the second son is afraid of him!
Liu Bei blamed Zhang Fei and said, "Third brother, why are you so reckless? ”
Zhang Fei burped and pointed to the knives and trophies on the ground and said, "Big brother, look at him, we are fighting outside the city, what credit do they have?" They didn't do anything, but they picked up all the spoils that belonged to us, and the eldest brother didn't have the same knowledge as them, but they repeatedly gained an inch! ”
Zhang Fei roared, Liu Bei also blushed, and Guan Yu next to him also said: "Big brother, what the third brother said is right, Lord Thorn Shi handed over Xia Pi to the eldest brother to manage, but he took advantage of the chaos to seize Xia Pi, the eldest brother valued Miss Gan, but he snatched Miss Gan, Lord Thorn Shi wanted to pass on the position of Thorn Shi to the eldest brother, but he obstructed it in every way!" ”
"Maybe he came to take advantage of the chaos to seize Tan County, and then seize the East China Sea, and use military coercion to seize Xuzhou!"
Someone in the crowd shouted, and more and more people began to accuse Tao Ying, and the people of the big family also accused Tao Ying of seizing their family property. The Cao family accused Tao Ying of killing their heir. For a while, more and more people in the north of the city began to accuse Tao Ying, and the soldiers of the big family also flocked to the north gate, and even Cao Bao led the troops from the west gate to the north gate.
Tao Ying only has 5,000 soldiers and horses, and at this moment, Liu Bei and others in the city have nearly 30,000 troops, and there are no generals under him.
Before the situation deteriorated sharply, Tao Ying pointed to the loot on the ground and said: "I also sent a thousand troops and horses to go out of the city to pursue Cao Cao, so this loot should be shared with me, but I don't want it, I will give it all to you." There is also Xiapi not I take it, it is the people who naturally have rods and scales in their hearts, Miss Gan and I knew each other first, I went out to fight to protect Xuzhou, but you took my love in the city, and I don't care about you, but General Liu, you have already withdrawn! ”
Seeing that Tao Ying gave in, some people still blamed Tao Ying, Tao Ying rode on the horse angrily and said: "I am kind enough to save you, you are so kind to take revenge, okay, let's say goodbye!" ”
After saying that, Tao Ying asked people to open the north gate, and at this time it happened to be his own soldiers who were responsible for guarding the north gate, and the soldiers hurriedly opened the north gate, and Tao Ying led the soldiers to rush out of the city.
Seeing that Tao Ying was gone, someone among the scholars shouted: "Wouldn't it be better to let the tiger return to the mountain?" ”
Cao Bao and the big family wanted to pursue, they wanted to catch Tao Ying, and Tao Ying looted their property and then chased it back. Seeing that Tao Ying was gone, Liu Bei also sighed and said, "The second son will definitely have an enmity with us when he goes this time." Xuzhou is not in harmony, if the second son helps Cao Cao, how can the East China Sea protect it? ”
Liu Bei saw it after all, so he hurriedly rode out alone. Tao Ying went out of the city, and just walked less than five miles to Wuyuan, when the soldiers came to report that Liu Bei had chased him.
Tao Ying was shocked and hurriedly asked how many soldiers and horses Liu Bei had brought? Xiaobing said that he came alone, and Tao Ying was relieved.
Although he has many soldiers, he knows Guan Yu's bravery. So in his heart, Tao Ying didn't want to fight Liu Bei yet, and let Cao Cao sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman.
Although the current Tao Ying looks extremely powerful, Tao Ying knows that his current strength is not as strong as he is in the eyes of the people of Xuzhou.
Because Zang Ba was in Guangling at this time, he took away his soldiers and generals, although he had Zhao Yun, Xu Sheng and other generals by his side, but these people were too young to take on heavy responsibilities. Of course, there is a ban, but because he is a new general, many soldiers do not obey him.
Besides, he now owns the two kingdoms of Xiapi and Pengcheng, and the land is vast, where are so many people stationed there? Therefore, Tao Ying is now very eager for peace, and then he can travel around the world to seek more talents to assist him.
Liu Bei rode a horse until he rushed to Tao Ying's side, and Tao Ying had already stopped his horse and waited for him. Seeing Tao Ying, Liu Bei hurriedly dismounted and said, "Don't go, second son!" ”
Tao Ying immediately looked at Liu Bei coldly, Liu Bei was twice his age, and he was like a child by his side. But fortunately, Tao Ying is older in his heart, so in front of Liu Bei, he has such determination.
"General Liu came to chase me alone, aren't you afraid that I will arrest you and take you to Pengcheng?"
"I'm afraid, but if the second son leaves, Tanxian County will be in danger, how can the second son be the one who abandons the people in fire and water?"
Liu Bei came up and put a high hat on Tao Ying. Tao Ying laughed back: "If I don't leave, I'm in danger!" You also saw it just now, and your third brother wants to kill me. The officials of Tan County, big and small, are eager to swallow my flesh and drink my blood, if I don't leave, won't I be a wolf in the mouth of a tiger? ”
After Tao Ying finished speaking, Liu Bei's face was a little embarrassed. Tao Ying said again: "I led the troops back to my Pengcheng to be free, how beautiful. Besides, Cao Cao attacked your Tan County, not my Peng Chengguo. ”
Tao Ying said, Liu Bei suddenly said: "The second prince is also bad, as the saying goes, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, if Donghai County is captured by Cao Cao, Cao Cao's army will go south, and the two kingdoms of Xiapi and Pengcheng will also rest!" ”
Liu Bei persuaded him, but Tao Ying snorted and said: "If I am threatened by the two kingdoms of Xiapi and Pengcheng, I can raise millions of troops with my hands, how can Cao Cao defeat me?" ”
Neither of the two could persuade the other, Liu Bei suddenly wanted to kneel down and said: "Prepare no talent, I am willing to kneel for hundreds of thousands of people in the East China Sea and beg Gongzi to stay!" ”
After speaking, Liu Bei wanted to kneel on the ground as soon as he lifted his robe, Liu Bei, a hero, although he was displaced, although he was chased by Cao Cao, he would take refuge in this and that, but he had never begged so much!
For the sake of the people, he is a seemingly inconsequential person, but he does not hesitate to kneel down with gold under the man's knees, this heart is there, Tao Ying is already admiring!
Tao Ying turned over and dismounted, helped Liu Bei up and said, "How dare you let General Liu worship each other!" Torment me! I will stay, not for the hundreds of thousands of people in the East China Sea, but for the Duke of Xuande! ”
Tao Ying helped Liu Bei up, and Liu Bei also sighed a lot.
