Early in the morning, Liu Bei and Guan Yu got up to discuss how to fight today's battle, and the captain in charge of patrolling outside the tent suddenly entered the big tent and said, "Report to the lord, the third general is here and is outside the camp." ”

"Why is the third brother here?"

Liu Bei asked, "Why didn't he come in, what did he do outside the camp?" Invite him in! ”

"The subordinates were invited, but the three generals seemed to be very embarrassed and insisted on refusing to enter the camp."

Liu Bei nodded and said, "Yun Chang, go, let's see with me what's wrong with Yide!" ”

When he came to the outside of the camp, he saw that Yide was leaning against a big tree and crying, his armor was not neatly dressed, and there was a long eight snake spear standing beside him, looking quite embarrassed, Liu Bei stepped forward and asked: "Yide, you are not in Pengcheng, why are you here?" Could it be that Pengcheng is in a hurry? ”

Zhang Fei felt ashamed, just blindly crying, refusing to tell the truth, Liu Bei knew that something must have happened, and it was not easy to say outside, so he pulled him up and said: "Let's go, go into the camp, what is there to say in the tent, what kind of body is crying outside." ”

Entering the big tent of the Chinese army, Guan Yu asked eagerly: "Third brother, what happened, is there a loss in Xuzhou?" ”

Zhang Fei saw that there was no one else at the moment, so he quickly knelt on the ground and told the truth quietly, Liu Bei was stunned after hearing this, and did not spit out a word in the middle of the sound, Guan Yu also fell into deep thought.

After a long time, Liu Bei sighed and said: "Yide, don't cry anymore, Xuzhou was not ours in the first place, what a pity, what a loss, providence, everything is providence." ”

Guan Yu raised his head and asked, "Third brother, where are your sister-in-law and niece?" ”

Zhang Fei lowered his head and whispered, "They are all trapped in Xiapi City." ”

The hearts of the people were mourned. Liu Bei is such a daughter-in-law, and she married in the early years. gave birth to a daughter for Liu Bei, in case Lu Bu used this to blackmail Liu Bei. That's how to do it.

"What did you say at the beginning, and how did the eldest brother tell you, but now you have lost Xuzhou, and let your sister-in-law and niece fall into the hands of thieves, how should this be good!"

Hearing this, Zhang Fei was like a thousand arrows piercing his heart, ashamed, gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, got up and snatched Guan Yu's saber, and hung it across his neck. He was about to commit suicide, shouting in his mouth: "Zhang Fei is sorry for his eldest brother, sorry for his sister-in-law, and he is willing to apologize for his sins with death." ”

Seeing this, Liu Bei and Guan Yu hurriedly stepped forward to grab Zhang Fei, and continued to persuade in their mouths, Liu Bei even took the opportunity to snatch the saber, threw it on the ground, and shouted angrily: "Third brother! ”

stepped forward again and took Zhang Fei's hands and said, "The country has been overturned, and no one will suffer." In the past, the three of us made an oath when we were righteous in Taoyuan, not to live together, but to die together, and to share the great cause. Fubao Han Room. Today's deeds have not been accomplished, if you have such foolish deeds again, you will never be the only child as a brother. ”

Zhang Fei was instantly moved. With tears in his eyes, he fell to the ground again. shouted: "Big brother......"

At this moment, Mi Zhu, Sun Qian, and Jian Yong, who got the news, came. Liu Bei hurriedly picked up Zhang Fei and said, "Ah, Zizhong, Xianhe, Gongyou, you are here!" Something happened in Xuzhou, we have to hurry back to Xuzhou, you go and prepare. ”

The three of them had already learned the general situation, and without asking too much, they immediately withdrew from the tent and took charge of the withdrawal of troops.

Among these three people, Jian Yong was an old revolutionary who followed Liu Bei in Youzhou in the early days, Mi Zhu needless to say, Liu Bei only befriended him when he entered Xuzhou, as for Sun Gan, he has not been introduced, it seems that the fairy is uncertain, but this is not the case.

Sun Qian, the cousin Gongyou, is a native of Beihai, Qingzhou. Originally recommended to the state by the great Confucian Zheng Xuan, but it was not reused, Sun Qian abandoned the official and traveled all over the world, traveled to the Lang evil country, was stopped by the local player guild, and was turned into a strategist, leading the post of the prime minister of the country. Then after Liu Bei pacified the interior of Xuzhou, he enlisted him as the state minister, and this time he went out with the army and served as the chief secretary of the army.

Giving advice is not Sun Qian's forte, Sun Gan is very good at vertical and horizontal lobbying, followed by internal affairs logistics, in history in Liu Bei's camp has a very high status, the treatment is second only to Mi Zhu, Zhuge Liang, and it can be regarded as the old Red Army.

Now, the ill-fated Liu Bei has been betrayed again, and Xiapi has fallen, and he can only return to the army to see if he can take advantage of Lu Bu's unstable foothold to recapture Xuzhou. It's a pity that when the army reached the northwest of Wei County, the army suddenly broke up, and everyone couldn't stop it.

For half a day, only the twenty or thirty thousand old Red Army he came out of Youzhou and Qingzhou were left, some of them were players, and there was a serious shortage of ordnance, food and grass.

Mi Zhu worked at this time, and immediately returned to his home in Qu County, East Haihai from Haixi, and his younger brother Mi Fang took his sister Mi Shi, as well as all the family treasures, and domestic slave courtyard workers, came to Haixi, and married his sister Mi Shi to Liu Bei, this is Liu Bei's Mi wife.

Mi Zhu's meaning is also very simple, isn't Liu Bei's daughter-in-law in the hands of Lu Bu, so give him another one, so that Lu Bu can't use his wife and daughter to blackmail Liu Bei, and Liu Bei temporarily has money and food in his hands, has a certain degree of autonomy, and his relationship with Liu Bei is closer again.

This is also the reason why Mi Zhu has the highest status in Liu Bei's camp in history, even if Mi Fang rebelled, his position was not shaken.

Liu Bei, who had calmed down a little, immediately decided to ask Lu Bu for peace, anyway, he, the lord of Xuzhou, didn't sit for long before and after, and he lost it, so it was a big deal to take refuge in Lu Bu and continue to be a horse boy, it was better than being threatened by Lu Bu and Yuan Shu on both sides in this land in the western part of the Haixi.

The matter of peace lobbying naturally needs Jian Yong and Sun Qian to do. Lu Bu asked Chen Gong for advice, he hated Zhang Fei in his heart, and he wanted to kill Liu Bei directly, but Chen Gong's opinion was different.

"General, at this moment, Yuan Highway occupies Guangling County, which is close to Xiapi, and poses a great threat to us. Cao Mengde of Yanzhou is also waiting for the opportunity to use troops in Xuzhou, and Liu Xuande is quite popular in Xuzhou, if he is killed, it will attract a lot of unnecessary resentment, and it also gives Cao and Yuan a reason to send troops, this is the next policy, it is better to agree to Liu Bei's request for peace, and instead send him to Xiaopei to garrison to deter Cao and Yuan. ”

Lu Bu thought about it and felt that what Chen Gong said was right, but at this time, he resented Yuan Shu for breaking his trust and not giving him money, grain, and silk, so he agreed to Liu Bei's request for peace.

A few days later, Liu Bei led the army to Xiapi City, Lu Bu and Chen Gong went out of the city to greet each other, Liu Bei stepped forward to salute, Lu Bu hugged his fists and arched his hands, smiling, and said: "Xuande, don't come to harm!" Come on, come on, hurry inside, come on. As he spoke, he took Liu Bei's hand and entered the city together, and Zhang Fei looked behind him with anger on his face.

Lu arranged a wine to entertain Liu Bei and said: "Xuande, it's not that I want to take your city, it's really because the Yide brothers were drunk and killed, which caused confusion in the army's mind, and I was afraid that he would make a mistake, so I brought troops to guard here for a few days." ”

Talking, talking, picked up the former Liu Bei's state pastoral talisman seal letter placed beside him, got up and took Liu Bei to put it down, and said: "Since Xuande has returned, it is natural to return the things to the original owner, please Xuande accept this talisman seal." ”

Liu Bei hurriedly got up and postponed: "General Lu, in the lower virtue of thin grace shallow, no talent and no virtue, it is really difficult to be this Xuzhou big task, today's change is really the will of heaven, please also think of the people of Xuzhou, and bring Xuzhou to the top." ”

Lu Bu is also tempting Liu Bei, since Liu Bei postponed, then he just got off the donkey and took it back: "Since this is the case, then Lu Bu is better to obey his orders respectfully, and he has the right to guard Xuzhou for Xuande." ”

Returned to his seat, put down the seal letter, and asked: "Xuande, you and my brother, you say, where do you want in Xuzhou?" ”

Liu Bei smiled slightly, and said: "In the past, Tao envoy Jun borrowed Xiao Pei from me, and today I also ask the general to lend Xiao Pei to me for a temporary stay, so that I can also fight with the general and help the general resist Cao and Yuan." ”

Lu Bu and Chen Gong didn't expect Liu Beiduan to be so knowledgeable, the same as they thought, but the play still has to be acted, Chen Gong hurriedly said: "Oh, how can this be, that's too wronged Brother Xuande." ”

"If you are allowed, Liu Bei is grateful."

Lu Bu said: "In this case, then Xiaopei will belong to you, and all the food and salary will be provided by the state and county." ”

Lu Bu is really beautiful now, it didn't take much effort to get most of the land in Xuzhou (currently Guangling County is under the control of Yuan Shu), he was in a good mood and naturally drank well, pulling Liu Bei's hand-pushing cup to change the lamp, drinking non-stop, and muttering in his mouth: "Xuande, as long as you and I are of the same heart, why worry about the great cause, ah, why worry about the great cause." ”

After the banquet, Liu Bei led the army to Xiaopei, and Lu Bu also returned Mrs. Gan and his daughter to him and was taken to Xiaopei.

Knowing the news that Lu Bu and Liu Bei were reconciled again, the most unpleasant of the several forces was Yuan Shu, who sent hundreds of thousands of troops and fought with Liu Bei for half a month, and only then did he get a mere county land, Lu Bu didn't do anything, but got the land of four counties, and he was not satisfied, and sent someone to ask him for food and money, how could he not be depressed, it was a large amount of food.

Yan Xiang, the chief bookkeeper, disagreed, and said: "Lord, why not be stingy with food and salary for a great career!" But he can't give it to him in vain, now he and Liu Xuande are each other's horns, and they join forces to refuse, if you want to break Xuzhou, you can only unite Lu Bu, attack Xiaopei first, and then try Xuzhou. ”

"To him? That's a lot of gold and silver. "Yuan Shu is good at money, he lives a luxurious life, his wife and concubines and children in the house are all covered in gold, silver and jewelry, if he is asked to take out a large sum of money to give Lu Bu, he is really a little distressed.

Yan Xiang said with a smile: "What you can buy is all mundane things, as long as you capture Xuzhou, are you still afraid of lack of food and salary in the future?" ”

"Good!" Yuan Shu suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "I'll give it to him." ”……
