Chapter 643: Dark Scars, Who Belongs to the Three Prefectures (5)
The news of Liu Bei's arrival in Yecheng is not known to many people except for the high-level leaders of Yuan Shang's forces and a few necessary parties. After all, Liu Bei is still sheltered by Gongsun Zhan, the sworn enemy of the Yuan family, and he still has a suspected record of intending to seize Yecheng before, even if he wants to calm the war, he has to take into account the thoughts of the people of Yecheng. Therefore, although Tian Feng and Zhang Jaw went out of the city for ten miles on behalf of Yuan Shang to greet each other, this momentum was very small.
Liu Bei naturally also knows about this joint. Otherwise, he would not dare to come to Yecheng with only fifty horsemen. However, it can also be seen from Liu Bei's ability to bring all the generals that Liu Bei deliberately acted sincerely, but his mind may not be as calm as he shows.
There are 8,000 euphorbia soldiers, and now there are nearly 7,000 under several battles, and this time they were sent out by Zhang Jaw to escort Tian Feng on business. At least when he entered the city gate, he ran into Wen Chou, who didn't know about it, and had fought several battles with Liu Bei's brother who had helped Gongsun Zan at that time, and led the troops to patrol the city, which did not make him suspicious, and although Wen Chou and Tian Feng did not deal with it, after all, they were in the same Hebei Fourth Court with Zhang Jaw, and they had some friendship, so they were not too embarrassed.
Tian Feng asked Zhang Jaw to place Liu Bei and his party. But after all, Zhang Jaw still had to take into account the "feelings" of the people of Jizhou for Liu Bei, who wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob, and did not dare to let Liu Bei and others swagger to live in the post house, but used Zhang Jaw as the euphorbia of Yuan Shang's orphans and widows in the military camp in Yecheng. carefully instructed Liu Bei and the others to wait for their news, and remember not to enter and leave the barracks at will. He left in a hurry and went to Tian Feng to return to his life.
Zhang Jaw is a kind person, although he made a sarcastic remark about Liu Bei and others before. But after all, he is also a general of Yecheng, and he is one of the few people who knows Tian Feng's plan. Understand that with the current behavior of Yecheng, Jizhou is already in danger, there is Gongsun Zan in the north who may go and return at any time, in the west, there is the state of the eldest prince Yuan Tan under Cao Cao's will, and in the south, it is now in control of the three states, and there is a legal system announced by the new emperor's decree in Jizhou. In Jizhou, there are still remnants of Montenegrin thieves who have also been infinitely reduced by several forces, and they are under pressure from Jizhou. It is by no means that only the nearly 7,000 halberds in Yecheng's own hands are left, plus Wen Chou's 10,000 cavalry, can easily contend with. Finding an ally who can help each other is not just a matter of the situation, it is imperative.
It's just that Zhang Jaw understands why Tian Feng chose Liu Bei. First, because Liu Bei's position is very embarrassing. is also alienated by Gongsun Zhan, who may have been tempted for several years and is suspicious, and is also facing the pressure of merging states, and is also afraid that Lu Bu will settle the account, and it is also difficult for him to betray the Black Mountain thieves at the beginning, so he can sympathize with the same disease. Second, because of Liu Bei's old qualifications, he participated in the crusade against the Yellow Turban, and participated in the crusade against Dong Zhuo. Luck is a little back, but political capital is not insignificant. And although I don't know whether the matter of the Han clan that this person advertises on weekdays is true, after all, after a few years of operation, the name of benevolence and righteousness is still known to the world. Such a famous, powerful, and even more common enemy, but only lack luck and opportunity, it is really not easy to turn down the opportunity to cooperate with him. In this regard, Tian Feng's private explanation to this fierce general who was stupid and loyal to the Yuan family was that Liu Bei's original intention to seek Yecheng was already known to the people of Yecheng, Liu Bei is a smart person, and he naturally knows that in the current situation of the enemy's heirs, if he is not even internally stable, what will happen to him, unless Liu Bei wants to die with the Yuan family, otherwise, he will definitely be the most reliable ally. It was precisely because Zhang Jaw believed in Tian Feng's words, and after seeing the "old enemy" that caused him to be dissatisfied with the compilation of the halberd, after the uncontrollable ridicule, Tian Feng's words extinguished the reason for his anger.
It's just that Zhang Jaw, who is very important, doesn't know that he overestimated the strength of everyone under Liu Bei's command this time. Liu Bei's own joy and anger are invisible, Zhao Yunzhong is loyal and doesn't ask about other things, Guan Yu is proud of self-love, and does not put Zhang Jaw in his eyes, but at least he did not care about Zhang Jaw's original "faux paw" on the bright side, but Zhang Fei is a tyrannical character, when he was ten miles away from Yecheng, he held back his anger, and it was only because of Liu Bei's suppression that he did not come out. At this time, I saw that Zhang Jaw was just "casually" placing himself and others in a remote and unclean place near the stable, surrounded by the camp of thousands of euphorbia soldiers with bad eyes, not to mention buying food, but he didn't even prepare cold water, and the stench of livestock excrement wafted in the wind, and the only brilliant white eyeballs on Zhang Sanye's black face turned red. It is also thanks to Zhang Jaw who is anxious to recover with Tian Feng, after all, Liu Bei has to bear a lot of responsibilities in the Euphorbia military camp, and he left in a hurry. Otherwise, with Zhang Fei's strength, under the rage, even if Guan Yu and Zhao Yun are together, they may not be able to suppress it.
"Yide! I asked you to stay in Nanpi before, but you didn't listen, you had to follow, and now what is going on? Tell me, what are you and I doing here? How did you agree to be a brother in the first place!? Seeing Zhang Fei's red eyes and panting sullenly, Liu Bei gave Guan Yu and Zhao Yun a look, and asked the two of them to let go of Zhang Fei to the door to investigate, and turned his face to face Zhang Fei, who was still eager to try. Don't want to use the power of the Yuan clan to strengthen our strength? Or will you forget the shame of being captured by a little-known milk doll of Lu Bujun last year? If you really have this kind of thought, the big brother will not stop you, you can take revenge and vent your anger! If this is what my brother expected, it should be the military camp of the Euphorbia Soldier, one of the two strong armies under Yuan Shao's command back then, looking at the number of military tents, there are thousands, you can go yourself! A certain Tongyun Chang, Zilong and all the army brothers are behind, try to see if they can resist the siege of these thousands of elites! ”
"Big brother! Flying is not...... Alas! You don't see the arrogant appearance of that guy just now, such a defeated general, but it seems like I am begging him, I am really embarrassed to death! Zhang Fei has a violent temperament, but what he is most afraid of is Liu Bei, who is far inferior to himself regardless of force or command, and now Liu Bei is said so, and if he makes another mistake, he can also see that Liu Bei is really angry, Zhang Fei was still waiting to refute two more sentences, and suddenly found that the second brother Guan Yu kept giving himself a look, and then looked at Liu Bei's face was angry and blue, so he could only sneer, and he didn't forget to complain again.
"No matter how aggrieved you are, you have to endure it!" Liu Bei hated iron and steel, glared at Zhang Fei, and snorted angrily. It wasn't until a long time that he let out a long breath of turbidity, and his voice returned to warmth, approached Zhang Fei, patted Zhang Fei's shoulder, and said, "Brother Wei, don't you know that your intentions are all for Liu Bei?" It's just that now that you and I have 20,000 troops behind us, it's not the time to resign and leave the seal if you don't like it. Jizhou Yuan Shangxiao'er is useful to us and other big things, and is willing to form an alliance with us, regardless of its attitude, it is good for you, for me, and for all of us. What happens if you get a little angry? In the past, when Emperor Gao was down, he was defeated in ten battles, his soldiers were like a mountain, he lost his wife and children, and even the 'test emperor' was arrested by that excuse, how embarrassed and aggrieved was it? But what happened in the end? My Dahan River and Mountain have lasted for 400 years! If Emperor Gao is like you, his heart is not smooth, he doesn't care about it just for the sake of being happy, even if he has a destiny, he will inevitably be like that in the end? How did this Han come to be in the world for 400 years? ”
"Yide, I think the big brother is reasonable! Now the big things are important, and you must not spoil the big brother's big things because of a small thing! Yide and a little patience, after this thing is completed, if you are still angry in your heart, how about a certain knife with you to find that jaw and Yuan Shang's anger? Guan Yu then said. It's just that how to say this persuasion seems to be instigating Zhang Fei, but the meaning of the obedience also has the words to persuade Zhang Fei to take the important thing as a big thing, Liu Bei smiled bitterly, and could only nod his head in acquiescence.
"It seems that Zhang Junyao didn't mean to embarrass us, but because of the old grudge between me and Yecheng before, which caused this group of halberd warriors to be angry. I expect that as long as that Zhang Junyao contacts Tian Yuanhao, he won't treat me so slowly! I'll wait and rest assured. After appeasing Zhang Fei, Liu Bei pondered for a moment, then turned his head to Zhao Yun and said, "Well, this incident is not only my anxiety, but I can't let these people look down on me." Zilong, you have always been steady, and you have bothered to deal with Zhang Jaw about it! While not being rude, we must not let them look down on us! ”
"Don't worry! When Yun was in Changshan in the past, he had also heard of the reputation of Hejian Zhangjaw, and he was not a difficult person to deal with. Presumably, there was some misunderstanding between Tongyide. At present, the lord's major affairs are important, and although Yun is friendly with Yide, he also knows the severity. Please rest assured! "Since Zhao Yun was asked by Liu Bei from Gongsun Zhan, he has been kept by Liu Bei's side, entrusting his safety, plus Zhao Yun is wise, but he is good at hiding clumsy, so Liu Bei is very trusting of him. In response to Zhang Fei's previous affairs, and Guan Yu was "helping" on the side, some of the words were not easy for Liu Bei to say because of the brotherly relationship, but it was very appropriate to say it through the mouth of Zhao Yun, who had a good personal relationship with Zhang Fei.
"With Zilong's words, why don't you worry. That Tian Feng is an understanding person, and now I only hope that Yuan Shang's mother and son will know the current affairs, put aside their personal grievances, and join hands with us to fight against the invasion of Cao Cao and Lu Bu! Alas, Jizhou was originally a place of ointment, but now it is also because of the misery of life, I only hope that this joint against the enemy can be successful, and from then on, Jizhou will be less affected by Cao Cao, Lu Bu, Montenegro and the like tyrannical disasters! Three brothers, but you have to help me! Liu Bei nodded, looked around at the three people in the tent, as if he suddenly felt something, and said with a little moist circles in his eyes.
