Xizuo reported to Li Ru about the lack of food in Sun Jian's army, and he hurriedly suggested to Hua Xiong, saying: "In this case, they no longer have the fighting spirit to fight, I will lead a small group of soldiers to harass their rear at night, general, you will directly attack his front, then Sun Jian will be captured soon." ”

Hua Xiong agreed, and began preparations that night.

After Yu Yi knew the situation, he felt a little helpless, and he really didn't have a chance to pass on the news, just when Li Ru came to him and asked to harass the back together at night, Yu Yi agreed, and could only pray that Sun Jian would be able to help or help at the scene when the time came.

So Hua Xiong let the sergeant eat very well, and after night fell, he secretly went to the direction of Sun Jian's camp, the moon was dark and the wind was high, it was a very suitable night for a sneak attack.

When the army marched to the vicinity of Sun Jian's camp, it was already around the early morning, and Hua Xiong hurriedly beat the war drums and went straight in the direction of Sun Jian's camp. After Sun Jian heard the voice, he hurriedly dressed and prepared to fight, and when he left the camp, he happened to meet Hua Xiong, and the troops of Li Ru and Yuyi also rushed over, and they did not attack, but set fire to the village in the back.

Sun Jian's sergeants were in a mess, running around, basically not listening to any orders, so the whole camp fell into a scuffle.

Yuyi watched the form inside outside, thinking about ways to rescue Sun Jian.

Sun Jian at this time only one Zu Mao followed, the two broke through relatively smoothly, suddenly Sun Jian found that Hua Xiong chased from behind, Sun Jian hurriedly took out a bow and arrow, shot two arrows in the direction of Hua Xiong, were dodged by Hua Xiong, and then put the third arrow, in an emergency, the force was too strong, actually pulled the bow off, dragged the magpie to draw the bow, can only lose the bow and arrow and ride a horse all the way to gallop.

Yuyi saw that Sun Jian had a red curtain on his head outside, and almost all the attacks were based on this, so he made a move and shouted: "The thief will not go, look at how powerful your grandfather Yuyi is!" ”

Li Ru stood aside to watch the play, and suddenly Yuyi came to such a play, he felt very surprised, and he had the impression that Yuyi didn't know martial arts, how could he rush over like this.

After all, Sun Jian had his back to Yu Yi, and Yu Yi shouted when he walked nearby, he carried his internal strength in his right hand and shot violently at Sun Jian's head.

When Hua Xiong saw it, he was also very surprised, and laughed: "Lord Yuyi, this is a good method." ”

Sun Jian turned around and wanted to dodge, but it was too late, the flying knife did not hit Sun Jian's vital part, but only shot the red curtain on his head.

Sun Jian took advantage of this opportunity, hurriedly jumped off the horse, and blended into the crowd, Hua Xiong couldn't figure out Sun Jian's location for a while.

Zu Mao helped Sun Jian and said: "The red curtain on the lord's head is very obvious, and the thieves all know it, so everyone is besieging in this direction, and I don't know what the way this rain is coming from, he shows that he is shouting to kill you, but he is actually saving you, you hurry up, I will wear this red curtain to attract their attention." ”

Sun Jian was shocked when he heard this, he remembered that Yu Yi had fought against the Yellow Turban Thief with Liu Bei before, but he didn't know exactly why he did it, and he didn't have time to think about it, so according to Zu Mao's intentions, the two walked separately.

Zu Mao picked up the red silk on the ground and put it on his head, successfully attracting everyone's attention.

Yu Yi observed that the person's figure was somewhat similar to Sun Jian, but it was obvious that he had dropped the bag, and knew that Sun Jian should have run away, so he shouted: "Sun Jian thief, you are really fateful, you won't die like this!" ”

Hua Xiong looked a little surprised when he saw Yuyi's flying knife, and then he looked in the direction of Sun Jian's fall from the horse, and said, "Lord Yuyi, it doesn't matter, we just need to chase the person who chased Dai Chiyi to death." ”

At this time, Li Ru also came over, looked at Yuyi with a surprised face, and said, "Can't you see it, you still have this means?" ”

"Haha, it's just a small skill of carving insects, and you can't get into the hall of elegance!" Yuyi said modestly.

So everyone followed Hua Xiong's suggestion and chased after the person who wore the red curtain, Sun Jian ran away from the path, and Zu Mao was chased by Hua Xiong very quickly, so he picked up the red curtain with a weapon, threw it on a pillar that could not be burned, and then dived in the direction of the woods.

Hua Xiong went to the vicinity of Chiwei and surrounded it, but he didn't dare to step forward, suspecting that there was some ambush, and then shot with a bow and arrow.

At this time, Zu Mao was in the woods, and found that Hua Xiong was getting closer and closer to him, because it was a perfect opportunity, he rushed out of the woods, wanting to wield the double knife in his hand to kill Hua Xiong.

Hua Xiong just smiled slightly, and with a backhand was a knife, he slashed Zu Mao under the horse, then turned the horse's head, led the team back to the camp to cover the kill, and after cleaning up the battlefield, it was already early morning of the next day.

After Sun Jian escaped, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang and others searched one after another, and finally waited for Sun Jian, packed up the remaining things, Sun Jian narrated the matter of the flying knife and Zu Mao, talked about the sadness, and shed tears.

The lesson of this failure was painful, and he sent someone to report the defeat to Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao and the others were discussing how to congratulate Sun Jian after he won the battle, and when they heard the news of the defeat in front of them, they were very surprised, and said: "I didn't expect that the enemy army is so strong, and Sun Jian, who is brave and good at fighting, has been defeated in the hands of Hua Xiong, what should I do?" ”

So he immediately summoned all the princes to discuss a solution.

Everyone arrived, only Gongsun Zhan was the last to come, Yuan Shao invited them all to sit in the account, and said, "A few days ago, General Bao's younger brother did not obey the order and marched without authorization, not only killed Hua Xiong's hands, but also lost many sergeants, and now Sun Jian has been newly defeated by Hua Xiong, the enemy is in full swing, and our spirit is frustrated, what should we do?" ”

As soon as Yuan Shao's words came out, everyone remained silent.

Yuan Shao saw a few people behind Gongsun Zhan, their faces were abnormal, with some smiles on their faces, and they sneered. Yuan Shao was a little unhappy and said, "Who are the three people standing behind Gongsun Taishou?" ”

Gongsun Zhan asked Liu Bei to stand up and introduced: "This person was my playmate when I was a child, and now he is the county magistrate of Pingyuan County, named Liu Bei!" ”

Cao Cao also seemed to have some impressions, and said, "Liu Bei? Is it the same Liu Bei who has made many achievements in the crusade against the Yellow Turban Thieves? ”

Gongsun Chan replied: "You're right, it's him!" ”

Gongsun Zhan asked Liu Bei to meet Cao Cao, and then introduced him as a royal family member after King Jing of Zhongshan, and gave an introduction to everyone present for his crusade against the Yellow Turban Thief, as well as his situation.

Hearing that he was a clan member of the Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao did not dare to slack off, and said: "Since you are a clan member of the Han Dynasty, it is definitely inappropriate to stand." ”

After finishing speaking, he sent someone to move the seat and let Liu Bei sit down.

Liu Bei sat next to Gongsun Zhan and arched his hand to Yuan Shao to express his gratitude, while Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stood on either side of Liu Bei.
