said that Zhang Da asked Fan Qiang to discuss the assassination of Zhang Fei.

Zhang Da said: "I was injured and rescued to Deng Tun, the owner Deng Sheng treats you and me like brothers, and you and I vow to avenge the killing of my brother." The owner of the village is afraid that you and I will be hurt, and will never allow it, so you and I will say goodbye. Zhang Fei, the culprit who killed General Deng Mao today, is here, so it is better to assassinate him while he is drunk, and he has a wish. ”

Fan Qiang said: "Deng Sheng, the owner of the village, has talked many times that suppressing the Yellow Turban Uprising and killing the soldiers of the rebels is not a personal enmity, but an enemy of the people. Now Zhang Fei was forced to fall into the grass, if he can fight against the government with us and others, it will be regarded as a righteous act, and he will not be assassinated for the time being. ”

Zhang Da said: "Zhang Fei is covered with the blood of the Yellow Turban, and he has always been the enemy of the Yellow Turban. If you are forced to fall into the grass today, how can you be with the yellow scarf for a long time? ”

"Who doesn't want to live a peaceful life? If it weren't for government persecution, who would want to rebel? There is no way out, so he opposes the imperial court. Fan Qiang said, "Zhang Feixiang is known as '10,000 enemies', and he is extremely brave. The wine room said that 'the grass is falling for the time being, but it is not a coward', which can be called a good man. Now, with its prestige, it is not improper to resist the government and help the people. ”

Zhang Da said: "Although Zhang Feiyan is like this, I don't know what he does? ”

Fan Qiang said: "Tomorrow I will discuss with Guo Liang and persuade him to attack the city and plunder the county, open a warehouse to help the people, and observe the behavior." ”

The two of them have agreed on it.

The next day, the two saw Guo Liang and told him to persuade Zhang Fei to attack the city and plunder the county.

Guo Liang said: "That's what I mean. ”

After a while, Guo Liang and others sat down in Zhang Feizhai.

Guo Liang persuaded Zhang Fei and said: "The king has been in the mountains for many days and knows the situation in the mountains. More than 1,000 people gathered and ate a lot every day. The wealthy families in the vicinity almost looted once, and they only killed the rich to help the poor, did not do the business of robbing homes and houses, and there was not much grain and grass in storage. ”

Zhang Fei said: "Just occupy the mountain for the king to eat a large piece of meat, drink wine in a big bowl, be unrestrained, and be happy, who knows that there are so many trivial things?" ”

Fan Qiang said: "The king used to be a general, and the cost of the war was provided by the government, so there is no need to worry. Now Zhanshan is the king, and the government is the enemy, and the government has lost the supply. ”

Zhang Fei said: "It's really not a good family and don't know how expensive firewood and rice are." Think of the hundreds of thousands of yellow turbans fighting against the official army, what kind of supply? ”

Zhang Dayan said: "The Yellow Turban Uprising was scattered in hundreds of thousands of places, mainly relying on attacking cities and plundering counties, which could not only supply military supplies, but also open warehouses to release grain and relieve the hungry. The people knew that the Yellow Turbans rebelled for the people, and they voluntarily donated money and property to support the rebels. ”

Zhang Fei said; "My brother Uncle Liu Huang used to be the pastor of Xuzhou and was in charge of Yuzhou, so he was very prestigious in this area. I don't know what county town is nearby, so I'll go and borrow some money and food. ”

Guo Liang said: "More than 40 miles northwest is the Dudian that brews Du Kang wine, and there is an ancient city more than 10 miles away, which is the ancient Yu tribe city, named Luncheng. ”

Zhang Fei was overjoyed: "I'll go borrow some money and food tomorrow, and bring some wine back by the way." ”

The next day, Zhang Fei left Guo Liang to guard the mountain, and personally took Fan Qiang, Zhang Da and 100 entourages to Luncheng (now Yucheng, Shangqiu, Henan).

The county commander Yang Min, the word Zhiyang, a native of Liang Guo, Yuzhou, was originally a gangster in the city, because he was good at meeting and patting horses, he gave his beautiful sister to Liang Guoxiang as a concubine, and was appointed as a county official.

Liu Bei led Yuzhou Mu, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei went to Liang to visit, Yang Min was responsible for the reception, and let the singers and dancers accompany him every night, which was very attentive and made Liu Bei happy.

At this time, the Luncheng county order was killed and vacant, Liang Xiang recommended Yang Min, Liu Bei was served comfortably, and naturally agreed, so he asked Yang Min to be the county order.

This is an ancient land, the original Yu tribe, after Yu Si governance for many years, and is the birthplace of Shaokang Zhongxing Xia Dynasty, naturally more rich, after Yang Min arrived, looting and exploiting, all evil, cruelty to the township, the people's resentment boiling.

On this day, he was discussing with the county officials how to increase taxes, and suddenly reported that a group of people shouted at the city gate, saying that Zhang Fei was asking to see him.

Yang Min knew that Zhang Fei, Liu Bei, and Guan Yu were righteous brothers, and they were extremely brave, so he led people out of the government to the city gate.

As soon as Zhang Fei saw that it was Yang Min, because he had been warmly received by Yang Min when he accompanied Liu Bei to Daliang, he shouted under the city: "It turned out to be you, this is easy to do." ”

"I heard that the 'Taoyuan Brothers' were defeated by the prime minister, Liu Yuzhou defected to Yuan Shao, and Guan Erye defected to the prime minister, I don't know why the third master came here?" Yang Min asked.

Zhang Fei said: "I was calculated by Cao Cao in Xuzhou with my brother Uncle Liu Huang, and was chased and killed to Mangdang Mountain. There is a shortage of food and clothing in the mountains today, so I have come to borrow some grain and grass. ”

Yang Min listened and thought secretly: Now that Liu Bei is against the prime minister, he is being chased and killed, and Cao Cao has monopolized power, if he borrows food to help, I am afraid that not only will he be corrupted, but even his official position will not be guaranteed; If he didn't borrow it, Zhang Fei was brave and abnormal, his sex was like fire, and he launched a rage to attack the city, not only the city was not protected, but also his life was worried.

Seeing Yang Min hesitating, Zhang Fei said angrily: "In the past, the eldest brother Uncle Liu Huang served as the pastor of Xuzhou and ruled Yuzhou, and I, Zhang Fei, will never leave with me. Xuzhou belongs to five counties and sixty-two counties, and Yuzhou belongs to six counties and ninety-eight counties. My brother treats you well, and now he refuses to borrow money and food, and he has really become an ungrateful villain. ”

Yang Min smiled and said: "This is not what it used to be. Mu Xuzhou and Lingyu Prefecture were ordered by the imperial court, and now they were conscripted and defected by the prime minister, and they are traitors to the imperial court. Although the county order is small, it is an official of the imperial court, how can it be in the same league as traitors such as you? ”

Zhang Fei was so angry that his eyes widened angrily, he gritted his teeth, and was about to get angry, only to hear Yang Min say again: "Since the third master is here, for the sake of the past, I will send you ten jars of Du Kang's good wine,"

Zhang Fei was furious, the prancing horse was about to attack the city with a spear, Fan Qiang persuaded loudly: "The general is angry, Yang County Ling refuses to borrow grain, and he is helpless." Ten jars of wine are given today, which is already rare. After that, he turned to the city and said to Yang Min: "The brothers have been working hard all the way, and they dare to bother Yang County to send some vegetables and food by the way, so as to satisfy their hunger, and then go back." ”

"That's easy to say." Yang Min agreed and walked down the city.

Zhang Fei complained to Fan Qiang and said: "When I came, I boasted to the brothers on the mountain that I went to Haikou, but now I only have a full stomach of wine, how can I explain to my brothers when I go back?" Where is Yide's face? ”

Fan Qiang whispered: "I'm only waiting for a hundred and ten people, and it's difficult to attack the city for a while, so it's not like this." ”

Zhang Fei followed the plan and asked Fan Qiang and Zhang Da to sneak on both sides of the city gate, and sat and waited for wine and food with 100 people in the city.

After a while, more than a dozen officials came to the city gate with wine and food, and the sergeant guarding the gate saw Zhang Fei and other 100 people sitting lazily on the ground waiting for food, so he opened the city gate and put down the drawbridge.

Fan Qiang and Zhang Da fought on both sides of the city gate, took the opportunity to kill the guards guarding the gate, and took control of the city gate.

Zhang Fei had already prepared, led a hundred and ten people to rush into the city, and went straight to the county office.

After Yang Min returned to the county office, he arranged to send wine and food, and was proud of sending Zhang Fei away with ten jars of Du Kang wine, when he suddenly saw Zhang Fei leading people to break into the county office, he couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy.

Fan Qiang was afraid that Zhang Fei would forgive the county order and looked at Zhang Da.

Zhang Da took the opportunity to draw a knife and killed the county commander with one sword.

Fan Qiang saw that he had killed the county order: "How is this good." ”

Zhang Fei said: "This kind of dog official, kill it." I will be the county magistrate, and the two of you will be the county officials and the team leader. ”

Zhang Fei found the seal of the county order, replaced the entourage with the third class of officials, and immediately sent someone back to the mountain, asking Guo Liang to take the cottage people and horses to escort Xiahou Ying'e into the city.

When Guo Liang came, Zhang Fei asked to bring 200 people to carry grain and grass back to the mountain to guard, and the rest of the people waited with Fan Qiang and Zhang Da in the city.

Since then, Zhang Fei and Xiahou Ying'e have lived in Luncheng, recruited troops and horses, and often had drinks with Fan Qiang and Zhang Dadu to Dudian, not to mention it for the time being.

Besides, Liu Bei was depressed all day long at Yuan Shao's place, and Yuan Shao asked why.

Liu Bei said: "The emperor's nephew was held hostage by traitors, and his family fell with the city, and the second brother did not know his whereabouts. As an imperial uncle, you can't serve the country, as a husband, you can't protect your family, and as an elder brother, you can't protect your brother, how can you not worry? ”

Yuan Shao said: "I have long wanted to attack Xu Du to rescue the Son of Heaven. Fang is warm this spring, just in time to raise troops, avenge the emperor's uncle, and support the Han family. ”

Liu Bei thanked him.

Yuan Shao gathered to discuss the strategy of breaking Cao, and Tian Feng advised: "Before Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou, Xu Du was empty, but he could not advance; Now Xuzhou has been broken, Cao's army is vigorous, and the enemy cannot be underestimated. It is better to brake with static, hold on to watch its movements, and wait for a gap to take advantage of, and then enter the army to collect. ”

Yuan Shao asked Liu Bei for his opinion.

Liu Bei said: "Cao Cao is a traitor who deceives the king, and the fourth Duke of Ming is loyal and good. ”

Only then did Yuan Shao make up his mind to raise troops.

Tian Feng persuaded again, but Yuan Shao didn't listen, and Tian Feng sighed: "If you don't listen to the loyal and good plan, it will be disadvantageous to go out of the school." ”

Yuan Shao was furious and ordered someone to pull out the beheading, Liu Bei persuaded him to be spared, and he was imprisoned, so he led the army into Liyang, and sent the general Yan Liang as the vanguard to attack Baima (now the east of Huaxian County, Anyang, Henan).

Fu Zhu persuaded: "Yan Liang has a narrow personality, although he is brave, he cannot lead the troops alone. ”

Yuan Shao said: "Yan Liang is my general, and I know what he can do." ”

Frustrated and offered many suggestions, all of which were good strategies, but Yuan Shao rarely listened.

coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but did not listen, missed the opportunity, and was preempted by Cao Cao; opposed the separation of the three sons, did not listen, and appointed the eldest son Yuan Tan as the governor of Qingzhou, and the second son Yuan Xi as the governor of Youzhou, and let the favorite third son Yuan Shang follow the governance of Jizhou and cultivate as an heir, leaving hidden dangers; took advantage of the geographical advantage, stalemate without fighting, dragged down the Cao army for three years, and did not listen, resulting in the disappearance of the advantage; This time, Yan Liang was dissuaded from leading the troops alone, but he still didn't listen.

He gathered his clans, scattered all his wealth, and said to them: "This time I am fighting with the army, if Yuan Gong can win, we will have all the might, but if I am defeated, I am afraid that I will not be able to protect myself, it is really sad!" ”

His brother Fuzong said: "Cao Cao's soldiers are short of horses, why should my brother be afraid? ”

Fu Zhi knew Cao Cao's eloquence and strategy: "Although the enemy is weak and I am strong, but with Cao Mengde's strategy, and the Son of Heaven as the capital, and although Yuan Benchu defeated Gongsun Zhan, the sergeants are tired and the generals are arrogant. ”

When his relatives heard this, they saw him off with tears in their eyes.

The generals took the opportunity to say that the military was too powerful, too prestigious, and difficult to control, which aroused Yuan Shao's suspicions, so he divided the supervision army into the three governors, and let the frustration grant Guo Tu and Chun Yuqiong each pawn an army, which weakened the power of the frustration.
