In the evening, the troops came back from Guangzong City one after another, and the small Guangzong City had already accommodated more than 100,000 surrenderers, and the Han army could only temporarily live in the original camp outside the city, and only sent some soldiers to guard the four gates.

When the soldiers returned, the camp that was deserted during the day suddenly became lively, and piles of bonfires rose quickly, and the tired soldiers sat around the bonfires, chatting happily and telling about the day's events. Goofy became the object of conversation among these soldiers, and his deeds of beheading Zhang Jiao and generously distributing his wealth were compiled into various versions by the soldiers, which circulated everywhere in the barracks, making him a hot figure in the army for a while.

Goofy's men also returned, and only a dozen of his 1,000 cavalry had died, and today's battle was a complete victory. In addition, he surrendered Zhou Cang and Guan Hai, and under joy, he appointed Zhou Cang and Guan Hai as military marquis. He called Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei over, sat around the bonfire, and asked Lu Heng to bring wine and meat.

The lights in the bonfire flickered on and off, Gao Fei stood straight on the edge of the bonfire, picked up the wine bowl in his hand, raised it high, and said loudly: "Everyone, tomorrow we are going to attack Quyang, everyone drink happily tonight, if you don't get drunk, you won't return!" ”

"I'll wait for a bowl of honor!" The five newly appointed military marquis sitting around the bonfire all raised their wine bowls in their hands and said in unison.

After a glass of wine, Zhang Fei muttered and complained: "What a fucking grievance, I thought I could fight happily, but I just led the troops over and only killed three thieves, and the rest were so frightened that they surrendered one after another, which is not interesting at all!" ”

"Hahaha!" When everyone heard this, they all burst out laughing.

Gao Fei said: "Brother Yide is brave and unmatched, riding a horse and galloping like a tiger out of the cage, how many people who are not afraid of death dare to block?" It is estimated that the thieves killed by you were also stunned by you, and before they could hand over their weapons for a while, they were already dying! ”

"High ...... My lord, tomorrow will attack Quyang, my old Zhang Ke will kill happily, if you meet someone like Brother Zhou Cang again, you are not allowed to grab credit with me again! Today you killed Zhang Jiao, and when you get to Xiaquyang, Zhang Liang and Zhang Baoke will be gone! Zhang Fei wanted to call Brother Gao Xian, but seeing that there were people around him, he thought about it for a while, but he changed his words and said slowly.

Gao Fei said with a smile: "Cheng, I will definitely not rob you when the time comes, but I don't know if Senior Brother Yun wants you to let you monopolize the credit?" ”

"Second brother?" Zhang Fei hurriedly turned his head to look at Guan Yu, who was flushed, and asked carefully, "Second brother, you won't rob me, right?" ”

Guan Yu said: "Don't rob it, let's have one for each of us!" ”

"Huh! What's the difference between this and robbing? Zhang Fei shouted.

Guan Yu just smiled and didn't answer.

Liu Bei glanced at Zhang Fei, bowed to Gao Fei, and said: "My three brothers are all fighting adults, so they can gain a foothold in the army of the imperial court, what my second brother and third brother said just now is nothing more than a joke, please don't be surprised, Zhang Liang, Zhang Bao and my brothers will definitely not compete with adults......"

"Brother Xuande said this sentence is a bit too outward, killing Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao can certainly be a great achievement, but the two of them will not stand there like a log, the battlefield is changing rapidly, no one can say for sure this kind of thing, since Brother Yun and Brother Yide are willing to kill Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao, why not? You are now my subordinates, and if you kill them, it means that I kill them, there is no difference, not to mention that we are brothers, who kills or not? Goofy said hurriedly.

Zhang Fei said with a big grin: "Yes, what the adults said is right, the eldest brother can't help but have too much heart." ”

Guan Yu took the opportunity to pour wine for Zhang Fei and pulled the corner of his clothes, and whispered in Zhang Fei's ear: "Listen to the eldest brother, talk less, drink more!" ”

Zhang Fei's face was stunned, and when he saw Liu Bei's expressionless face, there seemed to be a layer of gloom in his eyes, so he stopped talking.

Gao Fei observed his words and looks, and saw that Liu Bei's joy and anger were invisible, and he secretly shouted in his heart: "Big ears, this guy, what are you thinking in your heart?" There was no expression on his face, it was really elusive. ”

Zhou Cang and Guan Hai only cared about drinking, and didn't say much, after all, they had just surrendered, and although they were unusually promoted to military marquis, after all, many relationships were not very familiar, not to mention that they were thieves before.

After three rounds of drinking, the originally lively scene became very boring because of Liu Bei's words. Gao Fei felt bored, so he left first, and then Zhou Cang and Guan Hai also got up and left, and finally Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei all got up and left, and returned to the camp tent.

"Big brother, Brother Gao Xian has a lot of kindness, why do you want to refuse people thousands of miles away?" As soon as Zhang Fei entered the camp, he muttered.

Liu Bei squinted at Zhang Fei, sat down slowly, and said nothing.

"Big brother, you have something to say, Brother Gao Xian not only took us in, but also let us join his troops to follow him to attack the Yellow Turban Thieves, and today even our three hundred townsmen have changed into the clothes of the official army...... You...... What the hell do you think? Zhang Fei saw that Liu Bei was not big, he became more and more anxious in his heart, and he was not sure what Liu Bei's opinion was, so he shouted out.

Guan Yu grabbed Zhang Fei, shook his head, and said softly: "Third brother, eldest brother is in a bad mood, don't bother eldest brother!" ”

"In a bad mood? We don't have to be looked down upon by others now, we have wine to drink, meat to eat, and fighting, we can kill thieves and make meritorious contributions, what else is the eldest brother in a bad mood? ”

"Third brother!" Guan Yu roared, "Don't be rude to big brother!" ”

"Second brother, third brother, sit down and listen to me." Liu Bei was not angry, raised his head and looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and said softly.

Guan Yu pulled Zhang Fei to the ground, and suddenly heard Liu Bei crying quietly, so he hurriedly asked, "Big brother, manly man, what are you crying about?" ”

Zhang Fei couldn't tell what was going on with Liu Bei, in short, he was very happy in the past two days, since the Taoyuan uprising, he scattered all his family wealth, formed a village Yong, and followed Liu Bei to fight against the rebels with his second brother Guan Yu, more than a dozen battles, and the officials and soldiers he met didn't take them seriously. It wasn't until he met Gao Fei that he felt that there were still good people in the official army, but now that he saw Liu Bei like this, he also felt a little sad in his heart, so he asked, "Big brother...... I shouldn't have complained, I shouldn't have ......"

"Third brother, I don't blame you, I only blame the eldest brother for being incompetent. The eldest brother is a relative of the Han family, but he has been ridiculed many times, and it is also a blessing to be fortunate to meet Gao Xian...... It's just that in today's battle, Brother Gao Xian killed Zhang Jiao and became famous, but looking at our brother's situation, how can it not make people sad? At the time of the Taoyuan uprising, we made a joint oath to raise troops to fight thieves and do a great job, but now we can only be generals for others...... The reason why I said such things just now was also a last resort, after all, Brother Gao Xian is our boss, how can he openly compete for credit as a subordinate? Ay! Liu Bei interrupted Zhang Fei's words, crying and speaking slowly.

After Guan Yu and Zhang Fei heard this, their hearts were also like a layer of haze, and they both sighed heavily, and comforted together: "Big brother don't be sad, we understand what big brother means, when we attack Quyang, we will definitely cut off the heads of Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao and make the big brother famous!" ”

Liu Bei gradually stopped crying, reached out to hold Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's hands, and said very sincerely: "I, Liu Bei, can have you two brothers in this life, although I have no regrets in death." ”

"Big brother!" Guan Yu and Zhang Fei also shouted together.

Liu Bei saw that he had calmed Zhang Fei's anxiety, and he was also quite relieved in his heart. He has been in contact with Gao Fei in the past few days, although he is not very familiar with it, but he can also see that Gao Fei is a person with great ambitions, and from all indications, it seems that he is intentionally or unintentionally wooing Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

"I don't have anything now, only Yun Chang and Yide, two righteous brothers, if I can't keep their hearts, what ambition do I have to talk about? Once the Yellow Turban Thieves are pacified, the imperial court will definitely issue an edict to reward those who have made meritorious contributions, and at that time, I will take Yun Chang and Yide to say goodbye to Gao Fei and work hard to realize my ambition. Liu Bei hugged Guan Yu and Zhang Fei tightly together, and thought slowly in his heart.

————————————————

Gao Fei returned to the tent, very unhappy, and shouted at Lu Heng outside the tent: "Bring the wine!" ”

Lu Heng brought wine, and when he saw Gao Fei's ugly face, he asked, "My lord, what's wrong with you?" ”

"It's nothing, I'm panicking!" Goofy replied casually.

Although Lu Heng has been following Gao Fei for a short time, he has seen a lot of things, and he still has that bit of eyesight after the vicissitudes of life, so he poured Gao Fei a bowl of wine and said slowly: "Are you worried about what happened just now?" ”

Gao Fei raised his eyes and glanced at Lu Heng, and asked, "What happened just now?" ”

Lu Hengdao: "My lord, my subordinates don't know if they should say something or not?" ”

"No one gags you!"

Lu Heng put down the wine jar and bowed and said: "My lord, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Liu Bei are brothers of the opposite sex, and the subordinates have observed in the past few days, these three people are quite affectionate, if the adults only want to win over Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, I am afraid that it will be quite difficult......"

"You know a lot, don't you? I didn't expect you to see this little bit of my thoughts! ”

"Your Excellency forgives your sins, your subordinates deserve to die! It's just that the subordinates are thinking about the adults, and they don't vomit or be unhappy! Lu Heng hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Gao Fei waved his hand, smiled, and said, "You get up, I can tell the traitor, continue to talk down." ”

Lu Heng stood up and bowed: "The subordinates think that Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei have one heart, even if there are a little differences in some places, but brotherhood is greater than everything, and they will definitely not be separated." If the adults really want to win over Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, they must bring Liu Bei over together. ”

Of course, Gao Fei knew this truth, but he knew that Liu Bei was not a person who had lived under the people for a long time, and it was a bit dangerous to stay by his side, he only wanted Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, not Liu Bei. He thought about it carefully, and then said slowly: "This matter is not allowed to be talked about to outsiders, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei are where to go, I have my own measure." ”

"My subordinates understand!"

"Zhou Cang, Guan Hai and the two of them have surrendered here, I can't believe it, now I only have you by my side, as long as you do things for me, and when the yellow scarf is calmed, I will naturally take you with me and enjoy the wealth together!"

Lu Heng thanked and said: "The subordinates must be loyal to the lord!" ”

"Well, you go and send a jar of wine to Zhou Cang and Guan Hai, I saw that they didn't drink much tonight, and they were very rusty with others, so you go and dredge up for me."

"The subordinates understand, the subordinates will handle it, the adults will rest early, and the subordinates will retire!"

Gao Fei saw that Lu Heng had withdrawn from the tent, drank another bowl of wine, and lay on the bed, still thinking about how to win over fierce generals like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in his mind, and unconsciously the drunkenness came up, so he fell asleep in a daze.
