Zhao Yun quickly wiped away the tears on his face, stepped forward gently, and whispered to Liu Cun and Liu Bei, who were holding their hands and crying: "Lord, Brother Xuande came in a hurry and the tea has not been served, do you want to sit down temporarily, and then pour out your feelings after parting?" ”

Liu Cun nodded again and again: "Okay!" It's my negligence, come on, Brother Xuande, sit down for the time being, let's talk slowly. ”

Liu Bei, who was extremely humble, nodded frequently, wiped away the tears on his face, and insisted on saluting Shi Minchun, the former governor of Jizhou, and Geng Wu, the captain of the Xiaocai Cavalry who commanded the Jizhou Infantry Cavalry, and others.

Liu Cun took Guan Yu's hand, no matter how frightened Guan Yu was, he must insist that he sit beside him, and after Guan Yu got Liu Bei's signal to sit down, Liu Cun personally poured a cup of tea and sent it to Guan Yu, held down Guan Yu, who wanted to stand up and thank him, and asked in a harmonious voice: "Is Yide good?" ”

Guan Yu nodded gratefully: "Everything is fine, if it weren't for the need to stay in Lunu to help the displaced people who came from the city, the third brother would also come to meet the general together." ”

Liu Bei and the others looked at each other, and the smile on Liu Cun's face was gradually replaced by compassion: "This damn war...... The Youzhou army and the more than 100,000 troops of Yuan Benchu who went north are about to fight, and the entire Jizhou will soon be full of war, and the lives will be ruined, alas! ”

"Thousands of innocent people can only be forced to flee to Bohai County in the east and Changshan Kingdom in the west, and Lunu, which is located on the edge of the center of the war, will undoubtedly become the only way for people to flee westward, and in the next few days, more and more displaced people will gather under Lunu City!"

"Yes, when I left Lunu at noon and rushed over, there were no less than 10,000 displaced people gathered in the city and outside the city. It's not harvest yet. The city of Lunu is running out of food. Worrying! ”

Guan Yu, who is arrogant by nature, is in a particularly heavy mood at the moment, he has always looked down on the nobles who are clothed in fine clothes and food, the Han officials who have eaten vegetarian meals, and even those heroes who are famous all over the world, but he admires Liu Cun very much, who is full of strategy, self-made and also loves the people like a son.

After listening to Guan Yu's words, Liu Cun was silent, and only after a long time did he look at Min Chun in the constant sigh: "Brother Bodian, can you remember how much grain there is still in the armies of Bohai County?" ”

Min Chun immediately reacted: "There will definitely be surplus food stocks for the various armies stationed on the Bohai border, and if it is collected urgently, there will be at least 70,000 stones...... But. There will definitely be no fewer displaced people who have fled from northern Hebei and Jizhou to Bohai County, maybe even more than here! ”

"Lord, there are still 800 stone of grain in the subordinate family, so Brother Xuande and Elder Brother Yun can send it to Lunu City tomorrow." Zhao Yun felt a little guilty about Liu Bei in his heart, thinking that he would move his family to follow his lord Liu Cun to the north tomorrow, through Youzhou, and then to Qingzhou, so he did not hesitate to send all the food to Liu Bei, who was in urgent need.

Liu Cun readily agreed, and turned to Liu Bei to express his opinion: "Now that the big war is coming, Lunu City will soon be affected. Even if we urgently raise food and transport it, I am afraid that in the end, we will not be able to pass through the large area controlled by Yuan Shao's army...... I don't think so. Please Brother Xuande try his best to escort the people and go north to Youzhou, as long as he arrives in Youzhou, there will be a way to get better relief, and the transportation of my Qingzhou relief grain and grass will be safer. ”

Everyone nodded frequently, all thinking that this was the best solution at present, but Liu Bei pondered and didn't say a word, the people who didn't know the inside story were anxious, and the people who saw the hidden truth were all silent.

Liu Cun didn't have to think much to know why Liu Bei's choice was difficult, and he was more clearly aware of Liu Bei's ambition and heroic nature, this person was never willing to succumb to his command, not only his heart was as strong as iron, but also his nature was extremely cold, and at the same time, he became more and more frustrated, and his vitality was extremely strong.

The scout carrying the eye-catching pennant stepped on his horse, galloped quickly from north to south, passed through the steady stream of northbound troops and arrived at the north of the river, turned over and dismounted and knelt down to the silver-armored general who strode forward to meet him, took out the letter slightly soaked with sweat in the leather armor and presented it with both hands.

The burly, bearded-faced silver-armored general saw the three red feathers affixed to the seal of the letter, his face suddenly changed, and as soon as he took the letter, he immediately turned around and trotted all the way, flew on and jumped on the majestic war horse and rushed towards the bustling city gate, frightening the officers and soldiers who came in and out of the city gate screamed in surprise and hurriedly avoided.

In less than half an hour, the urgent report was sent to the temporary marshal's mansion, and Yuan Shao, who was revising the battle plan with the strategists and the generals under his command, read the emergency report, his face changed slightly, and he helplessly reported to more than ten henchmen and civil soldiers:

"The banner of the general of the chariot cavalry suddenly appeared in the west of Gaoyang City, eighty miles north of us, tens of thousands of homeless people followed the banner to the east, about more than 800 elite guards wearing the standard armor of the Qingzhou cavalry, several teams of scouts of our army followed and repeatedly investigated, and finally arrested several lone homeless people and interrogated them repeatedly, and finally confirmed that it was the cavalry of the Qingzhou General's Mansion Guards Battalion who led the homeless people to the east, and our old friend General Liu Zijian was in the ranks of the homeless."

Zhong Wenwu immediately became nervous, although he had received the information that Liu Cun and Gongsun Zhan had sworn an oath to kill horses in Jixian County, but no one expected that Liu Cun not only did not return to Qingzhou's lair, but instead appeared to the west of Gaoyang pointed by the army.

"At this critical moment, how could Liu Zijian appear west of Gaoyang? Is there an error in the probe? Chief Strategist Tian Feng couldn't help but ask.

Yuan Shao thought about handing the urgent report to Tian Feng, Tian Feng took it with both hands, read it carefully in the eyes full of concern or jealousy, and then fell into deep thought.

Xu You, who was kneeling in the fourth place in the ranks of Wenchen, had already seen the subtle reactions of his colleagues, and then looked at Tian Feng, who was still holding the letter and pondering as if he was stunned, he couldn't help but sigh slightly, weighed it for a moment in his heart, and still said his opinion:

"My lord, my subordinates think that it is not strange for General Liu Zijian to appear in the Gaoyang realm, maybe it was deliberate...... Now the princes of Yanzhou are fighting endlessly, and the eldest prince (Yuan Shu), who has just stabilized the line from southern Henan to Jiangbei, does not know what to think, and suddenly raised 60,000 troops to kill Yangzhou, maybe the next big prince will soon take advantage of the momentum of Yangzhou to go north and take advantage of the chaos to attack Xuzhou! ”

"Xuzhou seems to be calm after Cao Mengde had to withdraw his troops to rescue the nest, but Tao Qian has been twilight, and the major forces in Xuzhou are all ready to move, all of which have seriously threatened the safety of Qingzhou, in such a complicated situation, Liu Zijian has formed an alliance with Youzhou Gongsun Zan with great fanfare, which can only show his jealousy and defense of the lord, and the most reluctant to start a war at the moment is probably only Liu Zijian."

Zhong Wenwu listened to Xu You's words, and after a little thought, he nodded again and again, feeling very reasonable, even Xu You's continuous suppression and exclusion of the trial, Guo Tu and Gao Gan also frequently bowed their heads, Xuzhou, which has been providing Qingzhou with food and many production raw materials for several years, is far more important to Qingzhou than Jizhou.
