Long Xiang was confident, and said: "Ji Ling strives for a quick victory, he will not let the cavalry go first, it will be easy to expose his whereabouts, I will take two horsemen on the road, each with three war horses, day and night for three days." ”

"It's really hard." Tang Yu nodded solemnly, and then asked: "If you encounter Lu Bu's soldiers, how should you get out?" If these hundreds of ships were set on fire, it was estimated that they would soon be detected by Xiapi, and Lu Bu would definitely send a scout. ”

"It doesn't matter, if you meet unexpectedly, you will chase the enemy back." Long Xiang smiled slightly.

"If it's really chasing the enemy, why three people and nine horses?"

"Pao Ze was unfortunately killed, and we fought hard to get some horses back..."

Long Xiang replied without the slightest pause, Tang Yu stared at him in surprise after hearing this, and finally sighed with swallowing saliva: "Yunqikou is like a river, it is estimated that there is really a perfect plan, go to Xiaopei and be careful, I will let people go slowly, remember to go early and return early, I can't cope with such a complicated thing." ”

"Don't worry, Uncle Yu, I'll be back in a few days." Long Xiang solemnly promised.

Before dawn the next day, Long Xiang took two guards on the road, and they avoided the town along the way, changing horses and running day and night, and appeared outside Xiaopei City in less than three days.

Riding a horse is actually a chore, a long time of violent shaking, will make the rider's hips numb, Long Xiang thanks to the young and light, energetic, and those horses are also good, so he can persevere.

Long Xiang traveled in his previous life, tried horseback riding in Yunnan, Guizhou and Inner Mongolia, and found that a good horse is the same as a good car, and the comfort of sitting on it is completely different, and the experience of riding a cheap, short and thin Yunnan horse is far less than that of a tall and majestic Mongolian horse.

There is also a difference between tall horses, horses with long legs and strong legs run fast, but their endurance is not as good as that of strong horses with wide backs, and wide horses run more smoothly and do not need to stand for a long time.

Because of the blessing of his previous life experience, Long Xiang's mounts for this trip all chose to ride a comfortable wide-backed horse.

Liu Bei did not succeed in asking Yuan Shu, but was stolen by Lu Buli Yingwaihe, when he encountered Long Xiang and ran to Haixi, and was helped by Mi Zhu, who was born as a wealthy merchant, and finally surrendered to Lu Bu to return to Xiaopei, and organized three or four thousand people, Guan Yu was hurrying to train.

When he heard that Long Xiang had come to Xiaopei, Guan Yu put down his work and followed him to the mansion.

Guan Yu thought more than Zhang Fei, although Long Xiang had sent charcoal in the snow before, but after thinking about it, he found that the other party behaved strangely, after all, this kid was not from Hebei, and his reverence for Liu Bei was really abrupt.

Especially recently, there are strange rumors of 'Long Xiang riding alone and retreating from Zhang Fei', Guan Yu is worried that Long Xiang will come to the door again with other plans.

Striding into the front yard of the mansion, Guan Yu heard Zhang Fei's rough laughter in the lobby, so he slowed down his pace and walked over gently.

"Big brother didn't know, I was taking a bath by the river just now, and suddenly I heard the thunder and drumbeat, thinking that it was the thieves there who invaded the territory, and I greeted it without wearing any clothes, but it turned out to be a cloud, which made Bai happy."

"The three generals are still so hearty..."

"Seriously, I was unarmored at the time, and if Yun Qi stabbed with a gun, I would probably have to poke a few blood holes."

"The third general laughed, I had actually used all my strength to block your blow at that time, how could I have the spare strength to hurt you? Long Xiang is very self-aware..."

"Isn't it? Yunqi don't be modest, I just have itchy skills, wait for you to rest and rest, let's have a discussion, and then call the second brother. ”

"I'm really not modest, Long Xiang is the light of fire, how can he be brighter than the general Haoyue? Didn't you hear any rumors? ”

"Hahaha, there have been some rumors in Xiapi recently, saying that Yunqi rode alone and lost Yide, so the third brother was a little unconvinced..."

How can such rumors be believed? The envoy and the three generals were honored, and the events of the day were witnessed by the last generals, and later returned to Shouchun to spread the difference, but I didn't expect the rumors of Xiapi to be exaggerated, this is not what I mean at all, the three generals' martial arts are not weak Lu Bu, and General Guan is invincible in the world, how dare Long compare with the two? It is a blessing to lead a horse and fall into it..."

"It's true, others are afraid of the three family slaves, but I, Zhang Fei, are not afraid."

"Yunqi is too humble..."

Liu Bei didn't finish speaking, Guan Yu's green shadow had crossed the threshold, and Long Xiang happened to talk about his heart just now, so he was in a good mood and called his eldest brother.

"General Guan." Long Xiang hurriedly got up and saluted.

"The second brother is here." Liu Bei nodded slightly, and then beckoned to Long Xiang and said: "Yunqi sit down, second brother, you also sit, as the so-called 'friends come from afar, it's very happy.'" ’”

Guan Yu took a seat under his robe, looked at Long Xiang and asked meaningfully: "General Wuguan Long's face is haggard, and the two entourages waiting outside the palace are leading eight horses. ”

Long Xiang nodded solemnly and replied: "It was originally three people and nine horses, but because they were in too much hurry on the road, one horse ran and died, and it was a big deal." ”

"Big deal?" Liu Bei's smiling face suddenly froze, and he wondered if Yuan Shu had become emperor? On second thought, it's unlikely.

Long Xiang shook his head lightly, "No, Yuan Shu sent Ji Ling to command 100,000 troops, and he is coming to Xiaopei to kill, so that Jun should ask for help sooner, and it will be dangerous later..."

"One hundred thousand?" Liu Bei's muscles tensed, he turned his head to look at Guan Yu and asked, "Second brother, what about our scouts?" Why hasn't there been any news? ”

"Xiao Pei's war horses are too few, and the distance of the scout patrol is not enough, as long as Ji Ling appears north of Pengcheng, our people will be able to send back the news." Guan Yu replied with a solemn expression.

Long Xiang added: "Ji Ling is going to Pei County, Yuzhou, and he will not pass through the Pengcheng area at all, according to the day of departure, it is estimated that he will arrive in six or seven days." ”

"Xiaopeicheng is outnumbered, and it can block 100,000 soldiers..."Liu Bei stood up anxiously, rubbing his hands and spinning on the ground.

Zhang Fei grabbed Long Xiang's sleeve and asked, "Yunqi, how is Ji Ling's martial arts?" ”

"This person is a fierce general under Yuan Shu, but he is far worse than the third general..."Long Xiang shook his head.

Zhang Fei nodded humbly, then got up and comforted Liu Bei and said: "Big brother also heard it, that Ji Ling's martial arts are mediocre, and I will go to retreat from the enemy." ”

"Third brother, what about the 100,000 soldiers, can you finish stabbing the eight snake spears?" Guan Yu stood up and reminded.

Long Xiang saw that the three of them got up, and he was embarrassed to sit, and Liu Bei saw him stand up, like seeing a bright light in the night.

Liu Bei rushed forward with an arrow step, clasped Long Xiang's hand with both hands, and asked: "Last time, thanks to Yunqi sending charcoal in the snow, and now I came from afar to send a letter, Liu Bei is really grateful, and now Xiao Pei is in danger, I don't know where to ask for help?" ”

"Ji Ling is in a hurry, so it's best for you to find Lu Bu." Long Xiang sweated on his forehead, and sighed that Jun's grip was still strong.

"Looking for Lu Bu again? Hmph, how can my eldest brother and the Han clan repeatedly beg the three family slaves? Zhang Fei was so angry that he turned around and stomped his feet.

"Third brother." Guan Yu leaned over in a deep voice.

Hearing the request for Lu Bu, the two brothers Guan and Zhang were displeased, but Liu Bei looked the same, and he asked softly: "Ji Lingtong has an army of 100,000, is it useful to ask Lu Bu for help?" We don't even have 50,000 soldiers combined..."

"It works." Long Xiang nodded affirmatively.
