Nan Ye and Guan Yu looked at Zhang Fei's fingers, and sure enough, there was a group of people behind them, but they were not the cavalry that had been dismissed just now. Because there was no general to lead and no handsome flag among the dismissed cavalry, but at this time, there was a big flag waving in the wind among the men and horses who caught up.

Zhang Fei said angrily: "There are more Cao Jun than those who have been dismissed by the right people, what else do you have to say?" "Let's say it, the eight snake spears stabbed Guan Yu again.

Guan Yu hurriedly said: "Brother Xian, stay." You see that I have come here to show my sincerity. ”

Zhang Fei said: "If you are sincere, I will beat the drum here, and you will kill the three-way drum!" ”

Guan Yu nodded in agreement, lifted the Qinglong Glaive Knife, and urged Huang Feidian to come to the front of the formation. Nan Ye ordered Liao Hua to lead the troops and Zhang Fei's military horses to be together, and he watched the battle from the sidelines. Zhang Fei dismounted and came to the side of the war drums, ready to beat the drums to help.

In an instant, Cao Jun had arrived, and Guan Yu also saw the flag of the comer, and above the banner was the word "Cai". is the first general, it is Cai Yang.

It turned out that Guan Yu and Nan Ye had already been reported to Cao Cao for passing the test. When Cao Cao learned that the 1,000 men and horses he was monitoring Nan Ye had a conflict with the defenders, he felt a pain in his heart, didn't this the big water wash the Dragon King Temple, and the family didn't recognize the family! No matter which side loses the men and horses on both sides, it is the loss of Cao's army. So Cao Cao hurriedly ordered people to send the customs clearance documents quickly, so as not to prevent Guan Yu from leading a thousand soldiers and horses to kill people along the road.

The messenger sent by Cao Cao went north after passing the Dongling Pass, but he didn't expect Guan Yu and his party to turn to the west and send troops to Luoyang, but naturally they didn't meet Guan Yu and came back to resume their lives. When the messenger returned, the news of the death of Han Fu and Meng Tan, the Taishou of Luoyang, also returned to Xuchang. What gave Cao Cao a headache was that these two people were no longer killed by Guan Yu, but by Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao. Obviously, Zhang Xiu, Zhu Ling, and Lu Zhao have become accomplices of Guan Yu and Nan Ye, or the defenders have regarded them as a group.

Cao Cao, the dead general, didn't care too much, he was worried about Zhang Xiu, Zhu Ling, and Lu Zhao. If these three people died on the road, or most of the men and horses were lost, how could they control Nan Ye? If you let Nanye go, wouldn't you let the tiger go back to the mountain? Cao Cao had this concern, so he had to send Cai Yang to lead another thousand cavalry to chase Guan Yu and his party, on the one hand, not to let the defenders clash with Guan Yu, and on the other hand, to supplement Zhang Xiu's troops to watch Nan Ye take care of him.

Cai Yang led the troops to chase all the way, and the more he chased, the more he sank. It's nothing if Bian Xi hangs up, but Xingyang Taishou Wang Zhi burned Zhang Xiu, Zhu Ling, and Lu Zhao to death, which can make Cai Yang feel very anxious, because what Cao Cao worried about has become a fact. When Cai Yang chased to the crossing of the Yellow River and found that his nephew Qin Qi was dead, he tore the customs clearance documents in his hand to shreds, and wanted to kill Guan Yu and Nan Ye to take revenge.

The seven hundred cavalry dismissed by Nan Ye collided with Cai Yang. Cai Yang asked Ming Guan Yu and Nan Ye where they were going, and chased them along the road, and did not incorporate the seven hundred cavalry, because in his heart, these seven hundred cavalry were all accomplices of Guan Yu and Nan Ye. Although Cai Yang also understood that these soldiers were just following orders, disgust was inevitable in his heart, and he thought that he could completely defeat Guan Yu, Nan Ye and a group of bandits with himself and the thousand elite cavalry behind him.

At this time, Cai Yang's eyes were red when he saw Guan Yu, and he raised his sword and shouted: "Piff! You killed my nephew Qin Qi, and he fled here! I am on the orders of the Prime Minister to get you! ”

Guan Yu was forced by Zhang Fei to be anxious, and he didn't answer Cai Yang, so he urged the horse to raise his knife and cut it. Cai Yang saw Guan Yu's knife coming, he was not angry but happy, if Guan Yu did not resist, Cai Yang could only take Guan Yu and Nan Ye and hand them over to Cao Cao, but Guan Yu could justifiably kill Guan Yu if he resisted arrest, and then ordered a thousand men and horses to capture Nan Ye.

Cai Yang is the only one in Cao Ying's camp who disobeys Guan Yu's martial arts, and he himself uses a knife. Seeing Guan Yu's knife coming, he raised his knife and fought with Guan Yu.

Zhang Fei looked at Guan Yu while beating the drum. He often competed with Guan Yu, and when he saw Guan Yu's moves, he knew that the second brother Guan Yu was using real fire, not faking a fight, which made Zhang Fei very happy, and the drumming strength was a little stronger. The rumble of war drums was heard far and wide.

Cai Yang was not Guan Yu's opponent, although he was furious because of the death of his nephew Qin Qi, and his momentum increased by three points, but Guan Yu also fought hard because of Zhang Fei's persecution. As a result, Zhang Fei's drum was not finished, Guan Yu Qinglong's knife rose, and Cai Yang's head fell to the ground.

Zhang Fei saw that Guan Yu really beheaded Cai Yang and shouted: "Okay! He threw the drumsticks and turned over his horse, leading the soldiers behind him to rush straight to Cai Yang's military horse. Nan Ye gave an order at the same time, and ordered Liao Hua to lead the army and Zhang Fei to rush and kill together.

Although Cai Yang's 1,000 cavalry was elite, the main general died for a while, and the square was in chaos, and the two 10,000-strong enemies of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei broke into the formation and destroyed the formation. At this time, Liao Hua, the future pioneer of Shu State, and more than 1,000 soldiers rushed into battle again, and Caiyang's soldiers and horses were scattered in chaos.

These Cao troops were all cavalry, and it was relatively easy to escape, and after paying more than 200 casualties, the rest of the soldiers fled separately. Zhang Fei captured a Cao army alive in the battle, and asked Guan Yu about the surrender of Cao and the beheading of the generals. The pawn didn't dare to hide it, and said it from beginning to end, which was no different from what Guan Yu said, and Zhang Fei believed it.

After gathering people, Zhang Fei stepped forward to apologize to Nan Ye and Guan Yu: "I am reckless, I blame the mage and the second brother by mistake, and I will admit it if I want to fight or punish me." ”

Nan Ye and Guan Yu looked at each other and smiled, how could they blame Zhang Fei? Guan Yu said: "It's all a misunderstanding, can I blame you as a brother?" It's just that the third brother will have to change his fiery temper in the future, so as not to blame the good people. I just don't know why you are king here? ”

Zhang Fei heard Guan Yu ask, and then told him what happened. Since the defeat of Xuzhou, Zhang Fei hid in Mangdang Mountain for more than a month, and then went out of the mountain to listen to Liu Bei's news. A few soldiers under his command did not find out about Liu Bei, but contacted some defeated and scattered Xuzhou soldiers to vote for Zhang Fei

Seeing that hundreds of men and horses under his command had gathered, the grain and grass in Zhang Feishan's mountain were not enough, so he led his troops to an ancient city to borrow grain. It sounds good to say that borrowing, but in fact, Zhang Fei has no intention of paying it back.

When the county magistrate saw that Zhang Fei led people and horses to ask for grain and grass, he naturally refused to borrow it as if he was the king of the mountain. Zhang Fei rushed into the city in a rage, drove away the county officials, seized the county seal, and occupied the right to live in the city.

The people in the city were afraid of Zhang Fei at first, but after a long time, they found that Zhang Fei, the new county official, did not harm the people, but was better than the previous county officials, and did not exploit the people at all, and gradually settled down. So Zhang Fei gathered people in the ancient city on the one hand, and inquired about Liu Bei, Guan Yu and others on the other.

Gradually, Zhang Fei gathered and recruited more than 3,000 people, and with the help of these people, Zhang Fei really found out that Liu Bei was at Yuan Shao's place, and also learned that Guan Yu had voted for Cao Cao. Zhang Fei's first thought after getting the news was naturally to go to his eldest brother Liu Bei, but he couldn't travel through Cao Cao's hinterland with 3,000 men, so Zhang Fei broke up more than 3,000 people with a quick move, and ordered them to follow the caravan and dart bureau across Cao Cao's territory and gather in Yuan Shao's territory. This cottage is the gathering place that Zhang Fei chose.

Just when Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were reminiscing, they saw more than a dozen horsemen coming from the direction of the county seat. Everyone looked at Daxi, the current person was Liu Bei, and behind Liu Bei was Yiwen and Wu, it was Chen Zhi and Sun Qian.

Liu Bei was overjoyed when he saw Guan, Zhang Erjiang and Nan Ye at that time, and stepped forward to meet each other and said, "Master, Yun Chang, why are you here?" ”

Zhang Fei saw that the eldest brother Liu Bei didn't ask himself, but only asked the second brother Guan Yu and Nan Ye a little bit of food at that time: "Why didn't my brother ask me?" ”

Liu Bei smiled: "I knew you were here, and I asked you what you were doing?" If you hadn't gathered a crowd here, and you beat the county magistrate here and ordered him to pass the word, how could I have come here to pick you up? It's just that I don't know why Yun Chang and the mage are also there? ”

Sun Qian said on the side: "It must be the mage who managed to make Yun Chang leave Cao Cao to vote for the lord." I didn't expect Cao Cao to really let go of Yun Chang. ”

When everyone heard this, they had to tell Liu Bei about the previous situation again, and Liu Bei also told the reason for coming. It turned out that Zhang Fei attracted the attention of the county guards at the beginning of the gathering of people and the establishment of the village. The county commander thought that Zhang Fei wanted to occupy the mountains and grass here, so he sent troops to fight, but was captured by Zhang Fei.

This time, Zhang Fei did not drive away the county order to occupy the county seat, because he also knew that Liu Bei relied on Yuan's snort under Yuan Mai, and if he occupied the county seat, he was afraid that he would stab Liu Bei. So he issued a county order and asked him to pass the word to Liu Bei, so that Liu Bei could take over his own people. This coincides with Nan Ye and Guan Yu's previous plans. Because of this, Liu Bei rushed here to meet Zhang Fei, and it was an unexpected surprise that Nan Ye and Guan Yu arrived here at the same time.

Liu, Guan, and Zhang San's angry youth finally got together again at this time, and Liu Bei asked Nan Ye: "The mage and Yun Chang have passed all the way, and Cao Cao will not be compatible." I wonder what the mage plans to do in the future? ”

Nan Ye knew that there would be no danger if he really returned to Xuchang, but he was unwilling to live that kind of house arrest life, so he took the opportunity to say: "Naturally, I will return to Jiaozhou to be my state pastor." ”

Guan Yu frowned and said: "From here, I have to go south to the Cao Cao realm, I'm afraid it's more dangerous to go here than when I came, how can the mage make it?" ”

Liu Bei took the opportunity to say: "What Yun Chang said is true! Why don't the mages stay in Hebei for the time being, and join us in the edict to beg the thieves? To be exterminated, the mage will naturally go all the way unimpeded. ”

When Nan Ye heard this, he knew that Liu Bei had previously said that Cao Cao would not allow him to stay in Hebei to serve, but Nan Ye had no such plans. His purpose is to speed up the process of troubled times, so he helped Cao Cao crusade against Yuan Shao, how can he add chaos to Cao Cao at this time? So he said to Liu Bei: "Although Cao Mengde said that he held the Son of Heaven hostage, it was better than Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu claiming to be emperors without authorization. Although Xuande said that he was edicted to beg for thieves, he should not help the puppet emperor to attack the Han Dynasty. Xuande has to think twice about staying in Hebei! ”

Liu Bei heard Nan Ye say the biggest doubt in his heart, bowed his head and was silent for a while, and then whispered to Nan Ye: "I also know what the mage said, and Yuan Shao in Beitou is forced to do so. Now that Yuan Mai has no one under his command, if I have the help of a mage, I can first get rid of the puppet emperor Yuan Mai, and then get rid of the national thief Cao Cao, and return the jade seal to the Son of Heaven. At that time, I worked with the Master to reorganize the Han Dynasty, what did the Master think? ”
