After running for a few hundred meters, I don't know why, the war horse under Bian Zhang's seat suddenly fell to the ground, lifted him off the horse, and after rolling twice on the snow, he half sat on the snow. Before he could get up, he saw Hua Xiong galloping on a fast horse behind him, Hua Xiong on horseback was holding a saber in his hand, his face showed a hideous color, and he suddenly waved the saber and slashed at him. He hurriedly turned his body to his side, and as the horse passed by him, he felt a heart-rending pain directly occupy his senses, and when he looked at it, his right arm had detached from his body and was hanging on the snow.

He shouted "ah", the person almost fainted, but he heard a sinister laugh from behind Hua Xiong, and a huge breath of death came from behind, he didn't want to die, gritted his teeth fiercely, tightly held the scimitar in his left hand, and at the same time exerted all his strength, suddenly rose into the air, crossed Hua Xiong's head when Hua Xiong rode his horse, and kicked Hua Xiong off the horse with his legs at that moment, he took advantage of the situation and sat on the horse's back, threw away the scimitar in his hand, and held the reins in one hand, He turned his horse's head around and galloped out.

Hua Xiong rolled on the ground a few times, and by the time he stood up, he couldn't find Bianzhang, except for a broken arm left on the ground. He didn't expect Bian Zhang to be so powerful, he could still dodge his attack from behind in the case of a broken arm, he picked up the broken arm from the ground and held it in his hand, and at the same time heard the sound of horses' hooves from behind, and turned around to see Gao Fei and the flying feather troops chasing the rebel cavalry who fled from the desert, he hurriedly jumped to the open space on the side, and let the rebel cavalry gallop past him.

Gao Fei was chasing the rebel cavalry, when he suddenly saw a figure in front of him flash to the side, and when he walked in, he saw that the person was Hua Xiong, and there was an arrow in his left arm, and he was holding a broken arm in his hand, he hurriedly shouted to Hua Xiong: "Go back to the camp to treat your wounds!" ”

The horse team was fleeting between Huaxiong, and the cavalry of Gao Fei and the Flying Feather troops did not stop, but quickly chased towards the foot of Xinglong Mountain.

At the foot of Xinglong Mountain, the Qiang handsome man who was in charge of commanding the battle saw that his soldiers were about to attack the stockade, but suddenly saw Bian Zhang running back with a broken arm and not even stopping for a moment. Seeing Bian Zhang go away and the remnants of the army behind him were defeated, he immediately understood what was going on, and immediately gave the order to retreat.

Zhou Shen was commanding his subordinates to resist the rebels, and suddenly saw the rebels retreating, his face was overjoyed, and he shouted happily: "It must be that reinforcements are coming, Cao Cao, Sun Jian, and Gao Fei have come to save me!" ”

As soon as the voice fell, a black shadow jumped from the side of the barracks with extremely swiftness, and then landed in front of Zhou Shen, before Zhou Shen could react, he saw a flash of cold light, and a blood red appeared under his neck, and the whole person was in a different place. The black shadow disappeared into the night in a few subsequent jumps, the whole process was only a few seconds, and all the Han soldiers were cheering in front, and no one noticed that Zhou Shen, who was standing at the back, had already landed on the ground.

The sky was dark, and after a fierce battle last night, there was an unsolved puzzle left, and Zhou Shen's death became the most bizarre thing, and there were different opinions among the soldiers. According to the description of one of Zhou Shen's subordinates, Zhou Shen's cheers could still be heard on the front foot, but Zhou Shen's head was seen on the back foot. In the end, all the doubts fell on this Xinglong Mountain, which buried 5,000 Han soldiers, and they all said that there were gods and monsters on the mountain, and Zhou Shen was punished for offending the mountain god.

At noon, all of Zhou Shen's troops moved down from the mountain, Gao Fei, Cao Cao, and Sun Jian joined forces, and Zhou Shen's troops returned to Gao Fei, who had the least number of troops, and in order to ensure safety, the army retreated ten miles to the village.

In the main tent of the Chinese army, Sun Jian let out a long sigh and said: "In a battle last night, our army lost 5,000 people, and the rebels only killed more than 2,800 people. ”

Cao Cao still had lingering fears about last night's battle, if it weren't for Gao Fei leading the Feiyu troops to arrive immediately, I am afraid he would have died at Bian Zhang's hands. Every time he remembered the scene of the battle with Bian Zhang last night, he was very afraid, and when he heard Sun Jian sigh, he also sighed, and said slowly: "And that Bian Zhang, worthy of being the first general in the rebel army, I am a little scared when I think about it now." ”

Sun Jian said: "Bian Zhang is nothing, Zhou Shen's death is too bizarre, according to the description of his subordinates, the rebels did not attack the village." But judging from his corpse, the person who killed him was too clever to cut off his head with a sword, and it didn't alarm anyone, which is definitely not something that ordinary people can do. Don't...... Could it really be the ghost's doing? ”

Cao Cao smiled and said, "I never believe in any ghosts, Zhou Shen was able to climb to this position, definitely not because of his personal ability, but because of the result of bribing the Ten Standing Servants, I have never seen him charge into battle...... Anyway, this person deserves to die, it's okay to die, the province is in the way in front of us, even if he doesn't die now, I will kill him when I have a chance in the future. ”

"Forget about him, let's talk about business, now the rebels should still have more than 70,000 people in Yuzhong, with our 15,000 troops, we will definitely not be able to compete with the rebels head-on. Ziyu and Meng De, what are your two opinions? Sun Jian shook his spirits and asked immediately.

Cao Cao said: "For today's plan, we can only wait for reinforcements here." Brother Ziyu, what do you say? ”

Gao Fei didn't speak, he listened to everything Cao Cao and Sun Jian just said, and when he saw that Sun Jian and Cao Cao's eyes were focused on him, he smiled, and slowly said the plan that Jia Xu had already planned, and said loudly: "Discord plan!" ”

"Discord meter? What is the method of discord? Cao Cao and Sun Jian are now physically and mentally exhausted, and last night's battle made both of them feel a little palpitating, and after hearing Gao Fei's words, they asked.

Gao Fei smiled: "It's very simple, one mountain can't accommodate two tigers." ”

Subsequently, Gao Fei told all the strategies that Jia Xu taught him, and after Cao Cao and Sun Jian heard it, they couldn't stop nodding and gave a thumbs up.

"A soldier who surrenders without a fight is actually the best strategy in the art of war. If we can pacify the main force of the rebels in Yuzhong with a force of 15,000 troops this time, then the three of us will definitely become famous all over the world, and we will even become officials in the court, and our progress is just around the corner. Cao Cao laughed.

Sun Jian said: "Ziyu, your strategy is quite ingenious, now that Zhou Shen is dead, the army needs a main general, I, Sun Wentai, am willing to serve you as the main general, only you are the first to look forward." ”

After Gao Fei heard this, a smile appeared on his face, but he saw that Cao Cao's originally happy face had regained its calm, and it seemed that he was dissatisfied. He smiled and asked, "Does Brother Meng De also want to be the main general?" ”

"Of course, who doesn't want to be a big official? But since Brother Wentai is already willing to serve you as the main general, then I can't slap you in the face, and I can only obey my fate. However, it is much better for Brother Ziyu to be the master than Zhou Shen to be the master, not to mention that my brother and I are now also a lifelong friendship, it doesn't matter who is the master, the important thing is that our brother can rely on this opportunity to rise to the top. Cao Cao said it unabashedly.

Sun Jian laughed out loud after hearing this, he suddenly had an idea, and said loudly: "It's rare for the three of us to be so speculative, since God has destined fate, why don't we follow the principles of heaven and become brothers with different surnames?" ”

Gao Fei pondered for a while, and felt that Sun Jian's proposal was indeed good, and immediately grinned: "Okay, Brother Wentai's proposal is very good, Brother Meng De, what do you think?" ”

Cao Cao arched his hand and said: "Brother Wentai and Brother Ziyu are both heroes I have seen, and it is also a great pleasure in life to be able to worship two such heroic figures." But I don't believe this, since we are all friends, we can also be brothers, why do we have to tie up anything? Once the righteousness is settled, it is a lifelong covenant, Brother Ziyu is the youngest, I am about the same age as Wentai, we are slightly older than you eleven or twelve years old, when we die, Brother Ziyu is in the prime of life, isn't this too unfair to Brother Ziyu? ”

Gao Fei was also enthusiastic for a while, and suddenly became sober when he heard Cao Cao's words, the ancients regarded faith above all else, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei were able to be rumored to be good stories, because the three of them were in love with life and death, if one of them died, the other two would definitely not live, such an era of heavy righteousness, such a way of righteousness, for Gao Fei of modern thought, there are indeed too many inconsistencies.

Sun Jian said: "I ignored this, in this way, it is indeed too unfair to Brother Ziyu." I think, it's better to be like this, we all want to be brothers, and it doesn't matter if we are righteous or not, as long as the three of us have one heart, what do you say? ”

Cao Cao nodded in agreement.

Gao Fei said: "Okay, that's not bad, it's rare that the two brothers look up to me so much, so we will be called brothers in the future." Brother Wentai, are you Gui Geng this year? ”

Sun Jian said: "Twenty-nine." ”

"Brother Mengde, what about you?" Goofy asked again.

Cao Cao replied: "It's also twenty-nine." ”

Sun Jian and Cao Cao glanced at each other, looked at each other and smiled.

Gao Fei said: "When were the two brothers born?" ”

"I'm May." Sun Jian was the first to answer.

"I'm July." Cao Cao continued.

Gao Fei smiled and said, "Okay, then from now on, I will call Brother Wentai the eldest brother and Brother Meng De the second brother. ”

Sun Jian and Cao Cao both nodded, and laughed with Gao Fei.

and Sun Jian and Cao Cao became brothers, for Gao Fei, this is undoubtedly a happy event, and there is no imprisonment of righteousness, even if you want to turn your face in the future, you will not be condemned, it is indeed a good choice. After the small meeting of the three of them was dismissed, they began to carry out a divisive plan, on the one hand, they withdrew the army thirty miles, made a false appearance of a large army retreating, and covered it up, hiding in a valley.
