In mid-March, Liu Beijun went to Fancheng.

The scene of the three brothers Liu Guanzhang and the same roof has been more than a year.

Liu Qi was tired from the military, so he resigned after drinking for a while.

The rest of the generals saw that Liu Guan and Zhang had reunited after a long absence, and they all knew and found excuses to rest, leaving only Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Liu Ye, and Guan Ping.

Guan Ping also wanted to resign, but Liu Bei deliberately stayed to speak together because of his meritorious service.

For young people with promising cultivation prospects, plus Guan Yu's eldest son, Liu Bei did not hesitate to praise himself.

Zhang Fei and Liu Ye were also all complimenting, which made Guan Ping a little embarrassed.

Seeing this, Zhang Fei frowned slightly, and joked to Guan Yu: "Second brother should have let Tanzhi (Guan Ping) experience earlier, seeing that he was about the same age as Long Yunqi at the beginning, do you remember how calm he was at that time?" ”

"Do you remember?"

Guan Yu stroked his long hair and showed a rare smile: "He also praised the third brother for his appearance like a heavenly man, Long Yunqi is indeed terrifyingly sophisticated."

"What's wrong? Still not happy to boast about me? ”

Zhang Fei Nunu mouthed, stared at Guan Ping for a while, and suggested: "I heard that the eldest brother said that Long Yunqi may want to take Jiangdong, but except for the Xu family brothers, there seems to be no available talents under his command, do you want to go to Hefei to help?" ”

"I often hear my father talk about General Long, and I have great admiration and admiration for him, but"

Guan Ping suddenly stopped in the middle of speaking, and then subconsciously looked at Guan Yu.

Guan Yu stretched his sleeves slightly, waved his hand and said: "Don't talk nonsense from your uncle, Long Yunqi can go from a small quhou to the last person in Huainan to laugh at the end, do you think he really has no talent under his command?" The third brother, he only remembered the Xu family brothers, but he didn't know that there was Taishi Ziyi. ”

"That's right, and Taishi Ziyi, why didn't I think about it."

Zhang Fei scratched his head, grabbed the wine and said arrogantly: "I didn't think of Taishi Ziyi, it's me, I'll punish myself three times first." ”

"Haha."

Liu Ye deliberately debunked Zhang Fei and quipped: "I think Yide is gluttonous, and I asked when I met in Yuxian County before." ”

"Just drink it, let it be drunk, if you say that you will let you drink it if you break Fancheng, you can be regarded as stained with the light of the second brother."

Liu Bei shook his head helplessly, and then muttered to himself with empty eyes:

"Speaking of Taishi Ziyi, we seem to have not seen each other for more than ten years, and I remember that he came to the plains to borrow troops at that time, and he was really majestic and heroic."

"Isn't it a thing? If it weren't for Long Yunqi's acceptance, he would have been played to death by Sun Quan'er."

Guan Yu's words were obviously ridiculous, and there was a kind of ridicule of 'thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi'.

At the beginning, Tai Shi Ci went to the plains to borrow soldiers, and he was already a famous young man in the world, regardless of martial arts, character, and cleverness, he was praised, and the three brothers were not very famous at that time, and Tai Shi Ci didn't even look at Guan Yu squarely.

So Guan Yu is teasing now, with an inexplicable sense of coolness.

Zhang Fei didn't care, and after drinking, he picked up and said: "Long Yunqi is so shrewd, Taishi Ziyi is right to vote for him, Sun Quan Xiao'er will definitely not be able to fight." ”

"I haven't heard from Yunqi for a long time, and I don't know what happened over there"

Liu Bei frowned and muttered, looked sideways at Liu Ye and asked, "Ziyang, do you have any news?" ”

Liu Ye shook his head lightly: "No, last year, General Long captured Shouchun, and Cao Cao directly became hostile, the original communication channel was directly interrupted, and later Sun Quan raised 100,000 troops to fight Hefei, these changes have an impact on communication, since there have been no major events recently, there should be news soon." ”

Hearing that Sun Quan attacked Hefei with 100,000 yuan, Guan Yu couldn't help but talk.

"Wen Yuan is really as I expected, he is a fierce general who is hard to find in the ages, but Long Yunqi should not be able to keep it, it's a pity"

"If Zhang Wenyuan can't be kept."

Liu Ye paused slightly: "According to my understanding of Taishi Ziyi, he should have an old friendship with Jiangdong, I'm afraid he won't go down to Jiangdong with General Long, and he has to rely on himself and Zijing."

"So what? Long Yunqi himself is very strong. ”

Zhang Fei muttered a few words, leaned slightly in the direction of Guan Yu, and asked with a mysterious expression: "Second brother, you have been in Wancheng for so long, there should be no one to accompany you to practice martial arts, right?" ”

Guan Yufeng's eyebrows were vain, and he asked curiously: "The third brother is in Tongguan, someone is practicing with you?" ”

"Hehe, Tongguan is not."

Zhang Fei's face was cute and cute, and he said with a smile: "Last year, Ma Chaoxing invaded Chang'an, and I rushed over from Tongguan day and night. ”

"Ma Chao? Son of Marten? ”

Guan Yu had heard of Ma Chao's name, but he didn't know much about his martial arts.

"It's him."

Zhang Fei nodded in affirmation, wiped his beard, and said in a deep voice: "This person is a few years older than Long Yunqi, but his martial arts are definitely the strongest among his peers, and even I dare not guarantee that I can win him." ”

"Oh?"

Guan Yu stroked his beard, showed an expression of disbelief, and asked, "Isn't it the third brother who intends to give in?" You and Long Yunqi were like this, and he also used his third brother to make a name for himself, did you make a new friend? ”

"No, no, no."

Zhang Fei waved his hand: "Ma Chao and Zilong can fight hundreds of times, and I must go all out, and he named you and me by name."

"Challenge me?"

Guan Yu's face suddenly became serious, and he said coldly with empty eyes: "This guy is so angry, when a certain eldest brother wins Jingzhou, I will go to Liangzhou to find him to compete." ”

"Ma Chao has already retired from the army, and the second brother can't be rash."

Liu Bei glared at Zhang Fei, as if accusing him of 'seducing' Guan Yu, and then diverted the topic and asked Liu Ye:

"Ziyang, now that Zhang Yun's warship is crossing the river, it seems that he wants to stop us in Hanshui, how to deal with it in your opinion?"

Liu Ye stroked his beard and thought about it, frowned and replied: "Xiangyang is strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack, Cai Mao also has the advantage of the water army, I think it is not advisable to cross the river head-on, only let the eldest prince take Fancheng as the governing place, face Xiangyang across the river, declare sovereignty, and then build a warship on the north bank of the Han River, and use the method of attacking the heart to put pressure on the people of Jingzhou, until there are drastic changes in Xiangyang, and finally cross the river to seize the city and settle the chaos, only in this way can the losses be reduced."

"The way to attack the heart?"

Liu Bei frowned and asked in a low voice, "How long does it take to take effect?" ”

Liu Ye shook his head slightly: "This kind of thing is not easy to decide, it can be as short as a few days, ten days, or as long as three or five months or even longer."

"You're going to stay in Fancheng for so long?"

Zhang Fei thought that there was a battle to fight, but now that Liu Ye was scheming, he couldn't help but look at Guan Ping, and said in his heart that maybe the only battle has been finished by your kid?

"There's no other way?"

Hearing that Liu Bei didn't want to wait, Liu Ye asked rhetorically: "If Zhuge has a good way, or Yuan Zhi also has a high opinion?" So that you can when I didn't say."

"Ziyang, don't get me wrong."

Liu Bei personally poured wine for Liu Ye and explained: "It's not that the attack is not bad, it's just that I'm worried about the delay of the sun and the moon, and whether there will be any changes."

Liu Ye replied bitterly: "There is really no other good way, we only have 20,000 soldiers together, so that you should know how strong Xiangyang is, and Cai Mao has more than 20,000 people in his hands, and Sun Quan can't beat Hefei with 100,000."
