As soon as he entered Gaotang County, Liu Bei felt the strangeness of the atmosphere.

It is completely different from Liaocheng, which is dozens of miles away, not only are there few merchants walking back and forth, but the fields are more barren.

As for the peasants, they were miles away, and they didn't meet a single one.

"Since Zhang Jiaoling Taiping Road uprising, the world has been in turmoil, and there has been no recovery over the years. When I went to Gaotang a few days ago, I hadn't seen such a scene. I didn't expect to pass by again this time, and it would become like this! ”

Liu Bei sighed in front of his staff and generals, and he sighed.

After a few years, it's really a matter of people!

Li Shanchang didn't sleep all night yesterday, but browsed the files all night, which can be regarded as a preliminary understanding of the world at the end of the Han Dynasty. Fortunately, at the end of the Han Dynasty here, the source recorded in his history is not particularly large.

When he first came to this world, he was the force value of the nine-rank generals, but in terms of intelligence, it was definitely an explosive existence.

So after hearing Liu Bei's words, Li Shanchang immediately muttered: "My lord, Qingzhou is chaotic, the Yellow Turban Army is everywhere, there are millions of them, the state and county governments are all guarding and fighting, and the people's livelihood is desolate, which is not surprising. But with such a sparse number of personnel, it is clearly not normal.

I'm still waiting for General Gongsun in front of me to send a letter, let his troops slow down a bit, and I'll wait for the two troops to unite together, so that we can take care of it! ”

Li Shanchang is thoughtful, there must be a demon when things go wrong!

Others also thought of it in an instant, like Guan Yu and others, and they responded one after another.

Yu Yu, who had just joined in yesterday, was able to adapt to the environment so quickly and make suggestions, Guan Yu and others Liu Qi's humerus were also more gratified.

Liu Bei accepted Li Shanchang's suggestion, and in fact, he had sent a letter to his good friend Gongsun Zan early in the morning, and slowed down with the remaining 2,000 men. However, this good friend of his own, in the battle against Dong, seemed to hang up, followed the heroes to live a day, and when he arrived in Pingyuan County, he heard that there were bandits coming to suppress him, and he quickly became excited.

"I'll wait for the horses, let's speed up!"

asked the soldiers to send a letter to the front, and Liu Bei asked his six thousand elite men and horses to keep up with the speed and quickly move forward.

When there were still six miles away from Gaotang County, the scouts in front of him did not come with news for a long time, Liu Bei knew that something was happening, and he sent a letter to Gongsun Zan again, so that the troops would converge and slow down.

At the same time, seeing that the local mountains and forests suddenly became cold in this winter, he accepted the advice of Li Shanchang and Sun Gan, and guarded the surroundings with his troops according to the terrain.

Because he was worried about Gongsun Zhan's people, Liu Bei asked his second brother Guan Yu and fourth brother Zhao Yun to lead most of the cavalry forward to assist in checking.

After these things were arranged, the cold gradually dissipated, and the road ahead gradually appeared.

But seeing the avenue in front of him, Liu Bei's face was full of solemnity, and the road here was actually the same as the road he had just taken, and there was a deviation. In other words, they were such a large group of people who were actually deceived by illusions.

"Could it be that there are warlocks in the Gaotang rebels?"

A warlock is someone who knows how to do magic.

Liu Bei will too, but being able to confuse so many people at one time shows how powerful his magic ability is. And the power of the technique, according to Liu Bei's expectations, should be closely related to intelligence.

At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves was suddenly heard in front of me.

When they heard the movement ahead, they all came back to their senses and prepared for the battle with all their might.

Dian Wei and Xu Chu were firmly guarded on both sides of Liu Bei.

Zhang Xiu of the former army, and most of the men and horses, the bow and arrow are full of aiming.

Immediately afterwards, everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the person in charge.
