"What are you waiting for, I think they left under an excuse and won't come back at all."

Zhang Fei said hatefully.

He didn't like Mi Zhu and Mi Fang at the beginning, if he said that eloquence is just like that, his vision is not long-term, and his background is not a local family, but his family has strong resources.

Besides, the feeling of getting along with each other is 108,000 miles worse than that of my brother, and even if they are accepted and appointed, they are just taking what they need.

Liu Bei grinned heartily and said, "Mi Zhu joked that he wanted to marry all his sister-in-law to me as a wife, how could he abandon me?" ”

"Even if they don't persuade that Sun talent, they will find a way to come back, let's wait a little longer."

"Hey! Okay," Zhang Fei and Guan Yu had no opinion when they heard this, so they could only look at each other stupidly and no longer mention the matter.

However, Zhang Feifang was right, since they arrived in Xiaqiu, they have not committed any offence to the people, never bothered the people, and even personally went to irrigate the fields with the people to resist the drought.

In just one month, he won the love of many people, and he could collect grain from local merchants and large households, and Lu Bu could wait for about ten days even if he didn't give grain and grass, and then withdraw.

and so on, seven days.

Sun Qian left Xuzhou with Mi Zhu and Mi Fang, and went to Xiaopei to meet Zhang Han.

Since Lu Bu took office, many people who did not want to serve under him also resigned and went back.

The Mi brothers took this opportunity to leave and return to their hometown, while the Chen family and other people from the Xuzhou clan couldn't run away, so they could only continue to be officials.

During this period of time, there were many wealthy families who left Xuzhou, and talents either moved south or north.

Going to the north has to go through war, so most of them flee south, maybe someone in the clan in Xuzhou is operating this matter, anyway, when Lu Bu wanted to forcibly stop it, the people were already almost gone.

However, as long as Chen's father and son are still in Xuzhou, his power will not collapse instantly, and he still has resources to use behind him.

Therefore, the departure of Sun Qian and the others was just one of the small streams that followed the main stream, and their departure did not make too many waves, after all, Sun Qian had already been allowed to return to his hometown as early as the Tao Qian period.

Seven days later, Liu Bei decided not to wait any longer.

Xia Qiu is just a small city, but he can't hold his garrison here, and if he doesn't leave, maybe what awaits him will be Lu Bu's army to attack and collect Liu Bei's life.

At this time, he also understood that the Mi Zhu and Mi Fang brothers may have changed their attention, or they may have been trapped in Xiapi for some reason and can no longer travel freely.

Liu Bei was about to march away from Xiaqiu, and at this time, Jian Yong hurriedly came from outside and told him one more thing.

"Most of the people want to follow the lord."

Jian Yong bowed down, his face solemn, he understood that once these people followed, the march was slow, and it was very likely that they would be overtaken, and now that they had nowhere to go, they would definitely not be able to take the people with them.

Liu Bei was stunned, and the Russian tilt broke out into hearty laughter, "The people's will can be followed, it's a good thing!" In this way, we have been sincerely governing these days, bringing the people quietly, and making these people rely on trust, if only we could really take them away. ”

"It's a pity, if I take them with me, I won't be caught up by Lu Bu after I go far, after all, it's useless for him to take back an empty Xia Qiu, and I still kidnap so many people."

When he said this, he looked at Jian Yong curiously and said, "Xianhe, what do these people say?" Why do you have to follow me?! Can't they stay on their own? ”

"After Lu Bu took office, the tax was a little heavier, and he levied Ding into the camp and built city defenses, and every policy did not support the people, and the implementation of the government decree has reached Xuzhou Xiapi, Tancheng and other places."

"When the people flee, they would rather be homeless, because they have become conscription, and the disaster will affect the family, and the men will die of war and exhaustion, and the women will grab and fill the ...... Even if this is not the case, it is difficult to move without a male in the family, so these people prefer to follow the lord. ”

After hearing this, Liu Bei couldn't laugh, there was only a look of compassion on his face, and he sighed: "With them, how can I get out of Xuzhou?" ”

"Let's go see!"

Liu Bei strode forward, and after a while, he arrived outside the barracks, and a large number of cavalry and foot soldiers were being dispatched by Guan and Zhang, taking the baggage and the only remaining grain and grass out of the city in batches.

Now there is nowhere to go, Liu Bei plans to leave Xuzhou first, go to Yuzhou in the name of quelling the chaos, to see if he can stand his ground, the current Yuzhou has gone through many years of war, after Huang Wan left, there are thieves everywhere.

The number of leaders of the gathering is like a cow's hair, which may be a merit, but it can also be funded and supported.

Mercenaries, they can only make a living like this for the time being.

Soon, an old man from among these people came out of the crowd, and as soon as he came, he hurriedly bowed to Liu Bei, and he didn't know what it was, but if he wanted to kneel down and still couldn't kneel, his legs were shaking when he bowed.

"General, please help us!"

"General, there is no way to live in peace in Xuzhou! We just want to live, the road is difficult and dangerous in the troubled times, and if there is no general, we will definitely be captured and used as slaves! ”

"Old man, please get up, you don't have to call me a general, I am not a general, you can call me Xuande," Liu Bei's face was moved, his eyes moved slightly, and he looked at the people behind the old man, who were all eyes eager to survive, both men and women were looking at him with hope.

Each of these people was disgraced, their hair was messy, and most of their bodies were covered with mud, and they gathered together, thinking that they could get Liu Bei's mercy and take them to escape together.

"Everyone, I can't hide it," Liu Bei sighed and said: "I don't like the new assassin of Xuzhou either, and I don't like this to disturb the people's government, but now I have nowhere to go." ”

"I, Liu Bei, have devoted my life to the pursuit of the land of benevolence and the survival of the people, but the light words of people are not enough to shake the great man, only to do their best to seek peace, how can I afford the trust of your fathers!"

Liu Bei bowed his hand and bowed.

Although he was helpless in his heart, he really didn't dare to take the people away, and if he did, he would be chased and killed by Lu Bu and other heroes who had no thoughts of life, so as to deter the rest of the officials in the territory.

"General!"

"Ask the general to lead us forward!"

"General Liu, we are all people of the Han Dynasty......"

"The general doesn't have to take us on a long journey, he just needs to go to Pengcheng! We want to go to Cao Gong in Yanzhou! ”

One person said this, and the rest of the people also seemed to react, and shouted one after another: "Yes, we are going to vote for Cao Gong!" ”

"General Liu! Cao Gong is a person of great benevolence, and the people in the territory can be settled, and we are willing to go to it! ”

"He'll take it in for sure! There is a lot of food in Yanzhou! ”

"I heard before that Yanzhou has been preparing for a major drought for a long time, and although the weather is dry this year, the farmland is still fertile and can still produce grain, and I also asked General Liu to be kind and take us to Pengcheng to resettle."

"Good!" Liu Bei thought about it carefully, it was only a few days away, but he could take them to Pengcheng, but I don't know who the Pengcheng guards are now, can they let us enter the city?

But in any case, on the grounds of protecting the homeless people, you can find out whether Cao Mengde has really pursued benevolence and righteousness, and you will know as soon as you go!

It's just that I don't know where Mi Zhu and Mi Fang are now, if only they could go together.

……

Juancheng.

"Bang!" Cao Cao slapped the letter sent by Zhang Han on the desk, with a look of disgust, and said to Xun Yu next to him: "If you have time, Wen Ruo you teach him to practice calligraphy." ”

What is written, I can see my eyes and my head swell.

"Okay," Xun Yu smiled and arched his hand, not saying much.

"Dong Zhao," Cao Cao stretched out his hand and tapped a few times on the desk, and after pondering for a moment, he said to Xun Yu: "Help me reply to Bo Chang, Dong Zhao is now under Yuan Shao, good at foreign affairs, he has left the family many years ago, and has little contact with Dong Wan, I happen to know this person." ”

"After sending these news to Bo Chang, I will order Cheng Yu to mention Dong to visit Juancheng, and I have something to ask him personally."

"Sincerely," Xun Yu arched his hand, then raised his head with a smile, and said lightly: "I think that Uncle Chang has known Ming Gong's good intentions for him, but he is still worried about Juancheng in Xiaopei." ”

"Hmph," Cao Cao chuckled lightly twice, raised his eyes to Xun Yu, and showed a bitter expression, "He is a lone husband, he only knows how to make meritorious contributions but does not know how to cultivate his wings, how can he have actual achievements in the future?" Bo is often not good at this, so Xiao Pei can get one or two. ”

"Ming Gong has good intentions," Xun Yu bowed down.

He was not jealous, but a little envious. Every time Ming Gong mentioned this kind of thing, he would smile and reveal the old father's gaze.

It is rare to have such a pure person as Zhang Han, which may be related to his Baiding background, and he is naturally resistant to the intricate relationship, or he doesn't care at all.

Moreover, it is even more rare to see that Ming Gong is so attentive to a person, this Xiao Pei's Sun family was almost chewed up by him and Zhicai and fed to his mouth.

The two of them can be said to have broken their hearts.

Cao Cao sighed and said, "Alas, as long as he can envelop this family, he will ...... in the future Let's take your time according to merit in the future. ”

……

Xiao Pei.

"Gan Gong wants to set up a banquet for me?" Zhang Han looked at Dian Wei blankly, and the latter nodded solemnly.

There's nothing wrong with it, that's exactly what the skinny chicken guy who came to report just now said.

"I also said that please Mr. be sure to bring Dian."

"You're talking nonsense," Zhang Han was stunned, "The second half of the sentence must be false, and no one knows you." ”

"Then I'm your guard, shouldn't I be close to you!" Dian Wei's old face flushed slightly, "How can this be considered nonsense!" ”
