Fang Shao smiled faintly and said: "I am a student of Mr., so naturally I have to follow Mr. on this trip, Miss, take care all the way, let's see you in the south." ”

"But-" Zhuge Rong was reluctant in her heart, but she knew that it was useless to say more, and at this time, the boat had lifted anchor and slowly sailed away from the shore.

Separated by a river, the Si people gradually moved away, and Fang Shao could only wave goodbye to her with an indifferent smile.

And Zhuge Rong is always reluctant to give up, and in the same way, she can only wave her hands and say goodbye.

Looking at the increasingly blurred figure, a sour feeling suddenly surged in my heart, and I don't know when, my eyes have been moistened by something.

Seeing the boat carrying the beautiful woman sail into the distance, and finally disappear from view, Fang Shao secretly sighed, feeling a little melancholy in his heart.

After settling the Zhuge family, Fang Shao prepared to cross the river by ferryboat, and at this time, a large number of people had flocked to the river, and the dozens of big boats going south were soon crowded, and the rest of the people had to cross the river by ferry boat, and followed Liu Bei south by dry road.

Fang Shao was crowded with the main stream, and suddenly saw a familiar face in the crowd, it was Xu Shu's wife and his old mother, two weak women were caught in the crowd, and they were moving forward with difficulty.

Fang Shao squeezed close to him and said, "Mrs. Xu, why don't you take the waterway, what are you squeezing here." ”

Seeing that it was Fang Shao, Mrs. Xu wiped the beads of sweat on her face and sighed: "We originally got the news of our husband, and we rushed to take the boat, but who knew that the street was full of people, and when we squeezed to the riverside, the big boat had already run out, and we couldn't find the husband, so we had to follow the dry road." ”

Fang Shao suddenly remembered a very important thing at this time, it seems that in the previous history, in the process of fleeing south with Liu Bei, Xu Shu had to abandon Liu Tou Cao because his mother was obtained by Cao Ying, and according to the current situation, the mother and daughter are helpless, if they walk the dry road with so many people, the tragedy will have to be repeated sooner or later.

Thinking of this section, Fang Shao's mind turned, and he had an idea. He said: "It's not a way to go like this, you two come with me, I have my own way." ”

Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang were good friends, and Mrs. Xu knew whether Fang Shao was trustworthy or not, so she immediately supported her mother and squeezed out of the crowd with Fang Shao. Fang Shao took the two women and walked along the river bank to the downstream water military camp.

In addition to escorting the families of the soldiers, Guan Yu's navy also had to cover Liu Bei's army to cross the Han River smoothly, so although a large number of sailors had left the camp, Fang Shao guessed that there might still be a boat that had not left, and it would not be a problem to take Xu Shu's family away by the way.

As expected, the water village was almost empty, and there were only two or three Mengchong ships left on the shore, which would leave the shore after equipping the last batch of supplies.

Fang Shao dragged the two women to the shore, panting and shouting, "Everyone, drive the boat slowly, please take these two ladies with you." ”

"This is a military ship, not for ordinary people, you better take the dry road." They were stopped by an officer at the end of the bridge.

Fang Shao frowned and said, "These two are not ordinary people, they are Mr. Xu Shu's wife and mother. ”

The officer didn't believe it, snorted coldly, waved his hand, and said, "Come on, today is not the first family member of you to pretend to be a big official." Who doesn't want to take a boat to the south, if we are alone, let us get on the ship, and there will be no war in the future, okay, let's go quickly, don't hinder us from sailing. ”

The officer said that he was about to remove the bridge plank, Fang Shao was a little angry at that time, and shouted: "I am friends with your little general Guan Ping, you dare to treat me like this, be careful that after I tell him, you will not be able to eat and walk around!" ”

As soon as Fang Shao's voice fell, a familiar voice sounded in the cabin: "Who is pretending to be my friend again, I'm not afraid of being beaten!" Immediately afterwards, a young general came out of the inner cabin, and it happened to be Guan Ping.

Fang Shao was like a savior, and beckoned excitedly: "Major General, it's me, Fang Shao." ”

Guan Ping was about to get angry, but when he saw that it was really Fang Shao, his eyes lit up, and he pushed away the soldiers who were blocking the road in a few steps and ran over, and said strangely: "Big brother, why are you, aren't you going to follow the military division on the dry road?" ”

Fang Shao explained his intentions, and Guan Ping looked behind him, only to recognize it, and hurriedly said: "It turned out to be Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu, Guan Ping's discipline of his subordinates is not good, it is rude, let's get on the boat quickly." ”

Guan Ping immediately scolded the clumsy officer just now, and then politely invited the two women on board.

After arranging Xu Shu's family, Fang Shao finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The two ladies will be taken care of by General Lao, and I will thank General Xiao for Mr. Xu." ”

Guan Ping also arched his hand and said: "Big brother, don't worry, I will escort them to the south safely, by the way, big brother, it's better to go with me, the waterway is fast and safe." ”

"I understand the kindness of the little general, but as a student of the military division, I should naturally follow him. Little General take care, goodbye. Fang Shaobai said goodbye to Guan Ping and went straight to the ferry.

However, it was said that at this moment, on the south bank of the Han River, Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and other men and horses in the front had crossed the river, and the heavy troops, the families of the accompanying troops and the common people followed.

Liu Bei looked at the flow of people on both sides of the Han River, and couldn't help sighing: "I didn't expect that so many people in Fancheng would be willing to follow me south, I really didn't expect it." ”

Zhuge Liang said: "This is all due to the Lord's fairness and benevolence towards the people, but with so many people following, I am afraid that it will slow down the march, my lord, we still have to act expediently." ”

Liu Bei shook his head and said: "These people would rather leave their hometown with their background, and follow me when they are displaced, how can I, Liu Bei, abandon them, just take them with me." ”

Liu Bei's words moved the people present.

At this time, a white-robed general rushed from the shore, it was Zhao Yun. When Le Ma approached, Zhao Yun said: "My lord, General Guan just sent someone to report, saying that the two ladies and the little prince have already boarded the boat and can set off at any time." ”

Liu Bei pondered for a moment and said, "Lao Bo Zilong went to the shore to pick up their mother and son off the boat, and then walked the dry road with the heavy troops." ”

Zhao Yun was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Lord, isn't this too much-"

Before he finished speaking, Liu Bei waved his hand and said resolutely: "The families and people of so many officials have not been able to get on the boat, how can I, Liu Bei, let my family members take the boat alone, so it is decided, Zilong, you will take five hundred men and horses to protect you." ”

Liu Bei was able to do this, and the people around him all admired him, and Zhao Yun said even more angrily: "Don't worry, my lord, if the lady and the little son are injured to half a hair, Zhao Yun will come to see him." ”

After Zhao Yun left, Liu Bei looked up at Xiangyang City, where the city gate was closed, thought for a long time, and said, "Come with me to Xiangyang first, and see if you can change Liu Cong's mind at the last moment." ”
