Chapter 158
Tian Feng was ordered by Yuan Shao, took tens of thousands of loads of grain and grass, and went to Luoyang City under the escort of Gao Lan.
And when Tian Feng arrived in Luoyang and went to the store, Emperor Han Xian heard that he was here to deliver grain and grass, and he was immediately overjoyed and said: "It seems that there are still a lot of loyal ministers of my Han Dynasty!" ”
Tian Feng said: "Your Majesty, my lord wanted to come to Luoyang to see His Majesty in person, but unfortunately the thief Yuan Shu and my lord were in a stalemate in Hongnong, so my lord could not come to see His Majesty, please forgive me." ”
Emperor Han Xian said: "It's okay, Yuan Aiqing's intentions have already been understood, and the order will go down, canonize Yuan Shao as the general of the expedition to the north, and lead the history of Jizhou." ”
Tian Feng said: "The lord of the minister Xie Your Majesty Longen, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”
Emperor Han Xian said: "Aiqing, please get up." ”
Tian Feng said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Weichen still wants to ask Your Majesty for a holy decree on behalf of the lord of my family, I wonder if Your Majesty can agree?" ”
Emperor Han Xian said: "Tian Aiqing, you can tell me and listen to it." ”
Tian Feng said: "No, Weichen obeys the order. Your Majesty, Yuan Shu is guilty of rebellion, and he dares to openly attack my lord, this is a blatant provocation to my majesty, Your Majesty! And Liu Bei of Xuzhou is a self-proclaimed Han clan relative, but there is no evidence to prove his identity, so he was said by the hussar general that he can't casually claim to be a Han clan relative, but his loyalty and patriotism are sincere, please Your Majesty decree to canonize him as the assassin of Xuzhou, and name him to lead the troops to Yuan Shu. ”
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty said: "Since this Liu Bei is so loyal and patriotic, let's canonize him as the Xuzhou Thorn History." Moreover, since Yuan Shu, the villain, dared to openly provoke the majesty of the Han Dynasty, he issued an order to ask Liu Bei to attack Yuan Shu! ”
Tian Feng said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Weichen still has to rush to my lord's camp to help my lord's father resist Yuan Shu, and Weichen is leaving." ”
Emperor Han Xian said: "You step aside, Lord Yang Biao, please draft the decree yourself." ”
Yang Biao said: "The old minister obeys the order! ”
The will of Emperor Han Xian, which expressed Yuan Shao's meaning, went to Xuzhou in this way.
But it was said that Xuande was in Xuzhou, and when he heard that the holy decree had arrived, he hurried out of the city to greet him; Read the edict, this is the identity of the official canonization of Liu Bei's Xuzhou Assassin History, which can be regarded as the imperial court recognizing Liu Bei's identity as the official Xuzhou Assassin History, and also asking Liu Bei to raise troops to defeat Yuan Shu.
Liu Bei received the holy decree and sent the messenger back first, and then Liu Bei summoned everyone to discuss matters in the Assassin's Mansion in Xuzhou.
Mi Zhu said: "This must be a plan with a heart. ”
Liu Bei said: "What did Mr. see? ”
Mi Zhu said: "In Xia Bucai, these things are not seen in Xia, but by a gentleman named Chen Ping who I just met recently. ”
Liu Bei said: "How is this person? ”
Mi Zhu said: "This person is afraid that he has a million male soldiers in his chest!" ”
Liu Bei said: "Oh, it's so powerful! ”
Mi Zhu said: "Yes. ”
Liu Bei's eyes once again showed a hungry look, and said, "Sir, why don't you introduce me." ”
At this time, I only heard someone outside say: "There is no need for Mr. Mi Zhu to introduce you, I am here uninvited, and please forgive Xuande Gong!" ”
Liu Bei hurriedly went out to greet him, hugged Chen Ping's hand and said, "Mr. is Chen Ping?" ”
Chen Ping said: "It is here, thanks to Xuande Gong's concern!" ”
Liu Bei said again: "Sir, I don't know what you see coming?" ”
Chen Ping said: "Xuande Gong, now Xuande Gong, you have just gotten Xuzhou, and there are all kinds of waste to be revived, and the soldiers and horses are just a little larger, not to mention that Lu Bu has just arrived in Xuzhou, if Xuande Gong leaves, Lu Bu is afraid that with the help of Yao Guangxiao, he will plot Xuande Gong's Xuzhou, this is afraid that someone is using a trick to drive away the wolf and devour the tiger!" ”
Liu Bei said: "Who is it?" ”
Chen Ping said: "I'm afraid it's Yuan Shao, now Xue Rengui is busy with the plague in Qingzhou, and Lu Bu definitely doesn't have the ability, let the lord attack Yuan Shu, now the biggest profit is Yuan Shao, nine times out of ten it is Yuan Shao's strategy." ”
Liu Bei said: "If it weren't for Mr., Liu Bei would still be kept in the dark!" However, even if this is Yuan Shao's plan, I, Liu Bei, will definitely obey the emperor's orders and will not disobey. Liu Bei then ordered the army and horses, and Sun Qian said: "You can first determine the people who defend the city." “
Xuande said: "Two younger brothers, which of you can defend the city?" ”
Xu Chu said: "Big brother, you must let me go this time, I'm about to suffocate!" ”
Guan Yu said: "Big brother, I am willing to guard this city." “
Liu Bei said: "Sooner or later, I will discuss with you about the big things in the army, and you can't stay to defend the city, second brother." ”
Xu Chu said: "Okay! You're all going to the front line, do you want to stay here alone to defend the city? “
Liu Bei said: "No, third brother, you are too reckless, if you are asked to defend the city." I'm not at ease. ”
Xu Chu said: "Brother, I will definitely give you a good defense of the city, please rest assured." ”
Mi Zhu said: "I'm afraid that my mouth will not be satisfied." ”
Xu Chu said angrily: "I have been with my brother for many years, and I have never lost my credit, how do you despise me!" “
Liu Bei said: "Although what you said is so, I still don't feel at ease. Please also ask Chen Yuanlong to assist you, and I want to make three chapters with you! Chen Deng agreed to stay.
Liu Bei continued: "First, don't drink noisily, don't be noisy and willful, and third, don't whip soldiers. Can you do it? ”
Xu Chu said: "It's so simple! Of course I can! ”
Xuande handed over the dang respectively, so he commanded 30,000 Ma Bu troops and set off from Xuzhou to Nanyang.
Xu Chu was in Xuzhou City, and as soon as Liu Bei left, he called Chen Deng over and said, "Lord Chen, please write down these three military orders that my eldest brother set up for me and hang them on this middle hall." ”
Chen Deng agreed and went.
Besides, Yuan Shu heard that Liu Bei was going to take his little brother and swallow his prefecture and county, so he said angrily: "A mere weaver and a mat seller, with a guard and a guard of the courtyard as a general, and a man who buys wine and slaughters pigs to guard the family business, now occupies the big county, the same as the princes of all walks of life; I was about to hit him, but I haven't gotten yet! This guy came to provoke me first! I'm afraid I'm going to die! ”
, so he sent the general Ji Ling to raise 30,000 troops to welcome Liu Bei's army. The battle between the two armies was in Xuyi. Liu Bei's army had poor combat effectiveness, and it was an underwater village next to the mountain.
And Ji Ling, the general of Yuan Shu, is a native of Shandong, and he makes a three-pointed knife that weighs fifty catties.
On this day, he led his troops out of the battle and scolded: "Liu Bei villager, how dare you invade the realm of my lord!" “
Liu Bei said: "I have been edicted by the Son of Heaven to ask for non-ministers. If you dare to fight now, you will not be punished! ”
Ji Ling was furious, slapped his horse and jumped the knife, and took Liu Bei directly. Guan Gong shouted: "Just a thief! Hugh be strong! ”
From the horse and the Ji Ling battle. A row of thirty combinations, regardless of victory or defeat. Ji Ling shouted to rest for a while, and Guan Gong turned his horse back to the formation and stood in front of the formation to greet him.
Ji Ling sent his deputy general Xun Zheng out of the horse. Guan Yu said: "Only teach Ji Ling to come, and fight with others!" “
Xun Zheng said: "You are a general without a name, not General Ji's opponent!" ”
Guan Gong was furious and took Xun Zheng directly; It's just that the horses are together, and the chopping Xun is under the horse.
Liu Bei drove his troops to kill the generals, Ji Ling was defeated, retreated to the mouth of the Huaiyin River, and did not dare to fight; only taught soldiers to steal camps and rob villages, but they were all defeated by Xuzhou soldiers. The two armies rejected each other, no problem.
said that since Xu Chu sent Xuande to get up, all chores were handed over to Chen Yuanlong to manage; Military aircraft events, from home reference, one day, a banquet to invite all officials to the banquet.
Everyone sat down, and Xu Chu said: "When my brother left, let me drink less, for fear of losing my work." The officials were drunk today, and the next day they all quit drinking and helped me defend the city. But today I have to drink to my heart's content. After speaking, he got up and checked with the officials.
When the wine came to Cao Bao, Cao Bao said: "I haven't drunk since I was a child, I don't drink. ”
Xu Chu said: "Why don't you drink? I want you to have a drink. “
Cao Bao was scared and could only drink a drink. Zhang Fei poured himself a big cup, drank dozens of cups in a row, and didn't feel drunk, but he got up and checked with the officials. When the wine reached Cao Bao, the leopard said, "I really can't drink it." ”
Xu Chu said: "You ate it all just now." Why don't you eat it now? Cao Bao repeatedly refused not to drink.
