Chapter 109: Letter from Liu Bei
Chen Gong knew that he had lost trust, and he couldn't help but burst into tears, but although Lu Bu believed in slander, he was loyal, how could he bear to walk away?
Chen Gong was helpless and sullen all day long. But said that on this day, suddenly occupied a hexagram, Xiaopei direction or there is a big cause and effect, so he led a number of horses to Xiaopei to wander, suddenly saw the dust and sand on the official road, and in a moment I saw a messenger galloping quickly, but it was in the direction of Xiaopei, Chen Gong secretly thought, this person should be a big opportunity, and hurriedly sent people to surround this messenger, and asked:
"Who sent you?"
The messenger was originally Liu Bei's subordinate, how did he not know Chen Gong, but he didn't come up with a good reason when he was abrupt, how shrewd Chen Gong was, he knew at a glance that there must be an inside story, so he searched his body, and sure enough, he found Liu Bei's letter dedicated to Cao Cao, and he said happily after reading the book:
"Sure enough, it's a great opportunity, God really helps my lord."
So even someone brought the book to see Lu Bu, Lu Bu saw this and didn't know what Chen Gong meant, Chen Gong handed over the letter and said:
"This person is Liu Bei's envoy, and there is a secret book inside, please take a look at it."
Lu Bu held the letter in his hand, unfolded it and glanced at it, and couldn't help but be furious, it turned out that the letter said: I was ordered to want Lu Bu, and I dare not work hard all night. However, there are few soldiers in reserve, and they dare not move lightly. If the prime minister raises a large army to defeat thieves, he should be the forerunner. Be strict with the soldiers and prepare their armor, and wait for their orders.
Lu Bu was so angry that his hands trembled, and he threw the letter on the ground with an angry scream, and couldn't help but scold Cao Cao, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he couldn't help but gather the crowd to discuss the matter of recruiting Cao Cao.
When Chen Gong heard that Lu Bu was going to recruit Cao Cao, he said in a deep voice:
"Lord, if it is not the right time to ask Cao Cao, if you don't try Liu Bei first, you must first settle inside."
Hearing this, Lu Bu said fiercely:
"Liu Bei Xiao'er, I have calculated several times, if I don't kill this son, it will be difficult to understand the hatred in my heart, but if I easily send troops to attack that Liu Bei, I am afraid that Cao Cao will send troops to help, and it will be difficult to deal with the two-front battle at that time."
Chen Gong was silent, and suddenly saw Zang Ba next to him, and said:
"If I and General Zang go to call Taishan Sikou as a disaster in Shandong, in order to disturb Cao Cao, we will definitely be able to contain Cao Cao. The soldiers are fast, and the lord can lead the troops to recruit Liu Bei urgently, and it is expected that it will not take long to take off Liu Bei's child's head. ”
Chen Deng's father and son glanced at each other, and they both saw the waves in each other's eyes, the soldiers were fast, and they took the lead with one word, so they didn't even have the opportunity to inform Liu Bei, Chen Gong used a deep plan, it can be imagined.
On the side, Zang Ba didn't see the small actions of Chen's father and son, and patted his chest when he heard the words:
"Don't worry, my lord, this matter is on me."
Lu Bu usually hesitates to make a decision, Chen Deng was thinking about countermeasures, but he heard Lu Bu already say:
"As the public platform said, you and Zang Ba go quickly, and I will lead the rest of the people to solve Liu Bei'er first."
After all, he seems to be talking to himself:
"Liu Bei, look at how you escaped from my palm."
I saw a copper cup Peng being crushed with a clatter, and the wine flowed down from his hands.
Chen Gong and Zang Ba went to Mount Tai on the same day.
The four Kou of Mount Tai are Sun Guan, Wu Dun, Yin Li, and Changxi.
These four Kou and Zang Ba is an old acquaintance, Zang Ba traveled to Mount Tai when the four brothers robbed Zang Ba, do not want Zang Ba to be able but not weak, marksmanship, a soft gun thrown out of the painting, the four Kou were convinced, and they worshiped Zang Ba as the eldest brother.
Later, when Zang Ba followed Tao Qian, these four cowards gathered to take Zang Ba as the commander to fight for the yellow scarf. It's just that these four people have no heart to fight for the world and can't stand the suffering in the army, so they don't say goodbye to Zang Ba and become the head of thieves in Mount Tai, so they didn't follow Zang Ba.
Zang Ba went here to bring disaster to Shandong, and these four Kou were just unbelievable, how could there be a reason to refuse people, so the road was very smooth, and it didn't take long for Shandong to be chaotic.
Lu Bu also ordered Zhang Liao and Gao Shun to take Xiao Pei, these two will be the fiercest generals under Lu Bu. Because Lu Bu still had a grudge against Gao Shun back then, he didn't use this Gao Shun much on weekdays, but he also used it this time, which shows how much he hated Liu Bei, and ordered Song Xian and Wei Xuxi to take Ru Ying, and Lu Bu took over the three armies from the Chinese army.
The other two roads are not mentioned first, just Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, this road led the troops out of Xuzhou and went straight to Xiaopei, someone had already reported Liu Bei, Liu Bei was shocked when he heard the news, and he was busy gathering the generals to discuss the matter, Sun Gandao:
"You can quickly send someone to tell Cao Cao for help."
Liu Bei looked around at the generals and sighed:
"I just don't know who can go."
Liu Bei is handsome and lacks people, and he has to deal with Lu Bu's siege, but it is difficult to draw people to see Cao Cao.
"Somewhere in my life."
Liu Bei fixed his eyes, but it was Liu Bei's fellow countryman surnamed Jane, his name Yong, and the word Xianhe, and he was now a guest of Xuande.
Liu Bei attaches great importance to him and is one of the best lobbyists under Liu Bei.
Liu Bei also knew Jian Yong, so he was satisfied: "It's just right for you to go, but if it's someone else, I'm not at ease." ”
At that moment, he repaired a book, sent it to Xu Du with Jian Yong's starry night, and arranged people and horses on the other side, dispatched sergeants, and ordered Guan Yu to guard the west gate, Zhang Fei to guard the east gate, Sun Qian to guard the north gate, and guard the south gate.
The south gate, for the important place, the north gate is relatively safer, so Sun Qian came to guard, and ordered Mi Zhu to guard the Chinese army, and responded on all sides, which has been said before, Liu Bei married Mi Zhu's sister as his wife in order to stabilize Xuzhou, so Mi Zhu is now the brother-in-law, Mi Zhu also has a brother, surnamed Mi Mingfang, the word Zifang, Mi Fang is also Tao Qian's confidant, if Mi Zhu is an external cronie, then Mi Fang is an internal system.
Liu Bei has a reputation for virtue, but Tao Qian is worried that this Liu Bei is the one who responds to the order. If Liu Bei does something wrong in the future, it will cause chaos to his country.
Later, Liu Bei married Mi Zhu's sister-in-law, and Mi Fang also followed the light, Cao Cao once said Mi Zhu as the Taishou of Yingjun, and Mi Fang as Peng Chengxiang. But none of them went to take office, but followed Liu Bei to Xuzhou.
But he said that Liu Bei asked these two people to guard the Chinese army, but he was also thoughtful, after all, they were two brothers-in-law, and it was just right to protect the family.
Gao Shun led the troops to the city of Xiaopei, and Liu Bei climbed the city wall:
"What did the general do when he led the troops to my Xiaopei?"
Gao Shun saw that Liu Bei was not pleasing to the eye, and when he saw Liu Bei acting so coyly, he waved his gun and pointed at Liu Bei and said:
"You are a treacherous villain, you are connected with Cao Cao, intending to harm my father-in-law, and now you are not bound."
Liu Bei knew that there was no luck when he heard this, so he guarded the city gate at the moment and let Gao Shun attack the city, but he didn't come out, but Liu Bei knew in his heart that a small Xiaopei, if Lu Bu came to attack in person, it would be difficult to defend it for a long time.
The next day, Zhang Liao came to attack the city again, Guan Yu stood on the city and saw Zhang Liao from a distance, but saw that this person had a good appearance, and there was a look of loyalty and righteousness between his eyebrows.
Guan Yu stood on the road above the city:
"The general has a good appearance, that Lu Bu was in trouble with Dong Zhuo in the past, everyone shouted and beaten, and now he is a disaster to the world, his ambitions are not small, and I hope the general will wake up!"
At this time, Zhang Liao already has an understanding of the world, and the things that helped and abused him in the past can't help but come to his heart, but it is not a taste in his heart, listening to what Guan Yu said, his heart is even more uneasy, although he knows that Lu Bu is an honest and loyal person, but for some reason everyone shouts and beats like a rat crossing the street, even Zhang Liao is a little confused, he doesn't know if this loyalty in his heart is correct, he was stunned for a while, but his face flickered.
Guan Yu stood at the head of the city and saw it clearly, only saying that Zhang Liao was also dissatisfied with what Lu Bu had done, and he did not speak ill of each other at the moment, nor did he go out of the city to fight, but just guarded the city gate. Zhang Liao's mind was heavy, he already had a good impression of Guan Yu, and when he saw that Guan Yu did not go out of the city to fight with him, he had a good impression, and immediately led his troops around the east gate.
Zhang Fei, who guarded the city at the east gate, was not Guan Yu, this was a violent temper, seeing that someone was coming, he didn't care about his own small number of soldiers, and now opened the city gate to lead the troops to fight, Zhang Liao listened to Guan Yu's words, his mind was damaged, he had no intention of fighting, he just wanted to fight a soy sauce, and when he saw Zhang Fei attacking, he didn't fight with him, so he retreated. Zhang Fei saw that the enemy army was about to flee and was about to chase, but was stopped by Guan Yu who was rushing over, Zhang Fei was on the rise, and said hatefully:
"Second brother, that guy is afraid of me and retreats, why don't you let someone chase after him and beat him?"
Guan Yu shook his head and said:
"This man's face is full of loyalty, and I am influencing him with words, and I see that he is quite remorseful, so he did not fight with me just now, and if you force him to fight with you, will you not give up all your efforts?"
Zhang Fei listened to the flickering eyes of the two tigers, so he regained his fighting spirit, returned to the city to defend the city, and only ordered the soldiers to defend the city at the moment, and did not fight.
did not show Xiaopei, but said that Jian Yong arrived in Xudu, and immediately added oil and vinegar to tell Lu Bu about the siege of the city, Cao Cao was furious when he heard this, and he was busy with the generals.
Cao Cao's face was worried:
"I want to attack Lu Bu, but I'm not worried about Yuan Shao, I'm only afraid that Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu will attack me from behind, but what is good?"
Xun You knew Lu Bu's ability, and when he heard this, he hurriedly said:
"Lu Bu originally had the courage of a bear and a tiger, if he connected Yuan Shu again, it would be difficult to figure it out."
Xun Yu also said:
"What Xun You said is that Liu Biaoben has no heart to fight for the world, and will never attack, Zhang Xiu is newly defeated, and the lack of soldiers and horses will not attack, and the lord should take Xuzhou quickly with the speed of thunder, so as to prevent future troubles."
