Liu Bei, who was far away in Yiling, received two pieces of news at this time.

This first article is that Cao Ang likes wives and young wives.

For such tiring gossip news, Liu Bei doesn't care at all, he only cares about the world's major events.

And the news of the next day was a distress letter sent by Liu Biao.

Liu Bei took the distress letter sent by Liu Biao and found Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

At this time, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were idle and were practicing.

Liu Bei's letters came to them, stretched out his hand and beckoned, and then said loudly: "Second brother and third brother, come here, I have something important to discuss with you for my brother!" ”

After Guan Yu and Zhang Fei heard the shouts of their eldest brother, they also stopped practicing and rushed towards Liu Bei.

Soon, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei came to Liu Bei.

"Big brother, what's wrong?" Guan Yu asked Liu Bei with a nervous face.

Zhang Fei, on the side, stared at Liu Bei curiously with two eyes.

Seeing this, Liu Bei chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter if this matter is important, but if it is said that it is irrelevant, it is not good." ”

"Big brother, what happened, don't play dumb riddles!" Guan Yu asked Liu Bei with a little urgency.

And Zhang Fei continued to echo and nodded and said, "Yes, big brother, if you have something, just say it." ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he smiled and said: "That's the case, after Liu Biao brought the three of us to this Yiling Tomb before, he didn't care much about the three of us." ”

"And after that, he accepted Zhang Xiu, who escaped from Xiliang!"

"It's just that the imperial court issued an edict demanding that all these rebels in Xiliang should be submitted to the imperial court."

"But Zhang Xiu, this guy, surrendered to Liu Biao and refused to switch to the imperial court."

"It was these actions of Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu that caused Major General Cao Ang to directly attack Zhang Xiu."

"At the beginning, Liu Biao wanted to protect Zhang Xiu, but Sun Jian from Jiangdong shot at Jingzhou again."

"Originally, this Liu Biao couldn't defeat Sun Jian, and he absorbed Zhang Xiu's remnants in the hope of using Zhang Xiu to deal with Sun Jian."

"As a result, Zhang Xiu's people didn't borrow it, but it caused him to be besieged."

"In this way, he can't take care of Zhang Xiu, let the three of us brothers go to help him!"

Liu Bei roughly told Guan Yu and Zhang Fei about Liu Biao's thoughts, combined with the current situation.

After Zhang Fei heard Liu Bei's words, he waved his hand directly and said, "I thought it was a big deal, it turned out that Liu Biao was asking us for help?" ”

"Big brother, think about it, how did Liu Biao treat the three of us before, so is it necessary for us to help him?"

"My suggestion is not to go, let Liu Biao die in this battle, so that we can gather those defeated soldiers and expand our forces."

After Guan Yu on the side heard the conversation between Zhang Fei and Liu Bei, he blushed and said nothing, and there was no expression on his face.

Seeing this, Liu Bei asked Guan Yu, "Yun Chang, do you have any ideas?" ”

Guan Yu heard Liu Bei asking for his opinion, so he shook his head lightly and said, "I don't have any ideas, everything is up to the eldest brother!" ”

Liu Bei was still very satisfied with Guan Yu's answer.

At this time, Zhang Fei reached out and took the letter in Liu Bei's hand, and then began to read it.

"Virtuous brother Xuande, seeing the words is like faces, my brother sent you and other three brothers to Yiling to garrison the army, just to guard against Yizhou."

"Right now, Jingzhou and Yizhou won't start a war in a short period of time, so let's ask the virtuous brother to bring your two virtuous brothers to Jiangxia to discuss matters!"

"This Jiangdong Sun Jian covets Jingzhou to reminisce about the past, and Cao Ang in the north also wants to make a move on our Jingzhou."

"The truth of cold lips and teeth, the virtuous brother should understand, so please come to Jiangxia to support the foolish brother!"

"Brother, Liu Biao Liu Jingsheng, respectfully!"

After Zhang Fei finished reading the letter, he returned it to Liu Bei.

At the same time, he began to complain.

"This Liu Biao really has no bottom line at all! When we drove our brothers to Yiling, a place where they don't, no one cared, but they only thought of us when they encountered a big problem, so what else are we going to do? ”

"I think, it's better to wait for Liu Biao to die, let's take over Yiling logically, and then take the opportunity to expand our territory!"

Guan Yu actually agrees with Zhang Fei's words, but he still knows his eldest brother very well.

I saw Guan Yu looking at Liu Bei and asked, "Big brother, if you have any opinion on this matter, just say it, I'll listen to you." ”

Although Zhang Fei really didn't want to support Liu Biao, if his eldest brother wanted to go, then he would definitely follow.

I saw that Liu Bei thought about it, and then made a decision.

"I think we should still go to Jiangxia and support Liu Biao!"

When Guan Yu heard this, he looked like he had expected it a long time ago, and stroked his beard.

And Zhang Fei asked with a puzzled face: "Big brother, why do you insist on helping Liu Biao?" After all, he didn't reuse us before! ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he said with a smile: "It is precisely because Liu Biao didn't reuse us before, so this time, we have to support him!" ”

"Have you forgotten that when we first came to Jingzhou, we urgently needed a military exploit to stabilize our position and military power in Jingzhou."

"But before, he was unwilling to let the three of us go into battle to kill the enemy, so this opportunity to make meritorious service is gone."

"Right now, Liu Biao is isolated, if the three of us go to help and send charcoal in the snow, he will definitely remember our good."

"Wait until the Jiangdong Army is repulsed, then we can rely on these feats to completely gain a foothold in Jingzhou!"

Even though Liu Bei said so much, Zhang Fei still snorted reluctantly.

Seeing this, Guan Yu shook his head helplessly and said, "Third brother, don't be willful, let's listen to the eldest brother!" ”

Although Zhang Fei was not happy, he still nodded lightly.

Before, when Liu Bei came to Yiling, he only brought 1,000 veterans to come.

After this period of development, Liu Bei's command already has 4,000 people!

In the end, Liu Bei decided that Dai Ze had 500 veterans and 1,500 recruits, a total of 2,000 people, and took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to Jiangxia to help Liu Biao.

As for this Yiling City, it was handed over to a deputy future guard.

After all, this side is close to Yizhou, there is no war at all, and the so-called defending the city is just daily patrols and training.

Under the leadership of Liu Bei, two thousand men and horses marched rapidly and came to Jiangxia. (End of chapter)
