Chapter 8 Mi Luyun
Liu Bei's 5,000 people broke Yuan Shu's 80,000 people, and the battle of Huaiyin shook Kyushu, and 10,000 people were shocked.
The month before, Liu Bei's 30,000 horses could not defeat Yuan Shu's 100,000 army, and he was stolen by Lu Bu and retreated one after another, fleeing all the way to Haixi County. In recent days, in two battles in a row, Yuan Shu was defeated with less than one-tenth of the troops, and Yuan Shu had no power to fight back, just like changing an army, and he used clever plans like divine help.
For a while, everyone's eyes were focused on the insignificant county of Guangling County, Xuzhou, especially Cao Cao, who had been eyeing Xuzhou, and Sun Ce, who was seeking to win Yangzhou, all wanted to find out why Liu Beijun could transform in just a few days and become a god.
Only Liu Beijun knew, just because they ushered in the most powerful military advisor so far, twenty-two-year-old Zhao Chen.
He was an ordinary-looking young man, carrying a strange bag, with short hair that looked out of place in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, wearing a T-shirt and a pair of small denim shorts, and the pair of Adi on his feet was clean and shiny.
When he first crossed over, those people in Zhaojia Village felt that the person in front of him was a psychopath, not to mention that he was dressed strangely, and even dared to shave his hair, and the people naturally thought that he was a person who had made a mistake and was executed, and he was tortured (the ancient crime was shaved afterwards), and no one wanted to approach him.
Therefore, when Zhao Chen rushed out to stop Liu Bei's army, Chen Zhi drew his sword as soon as he saw him, and no one dared to take it lightly as a guard.
On the contrary, Liu Bei didn't care about Zhao Chen's image at all, maybe he knew that people should not be good-looking.
This made Zhao Chen feel very comfortable.
The next day, Zhao Chen slept late and didn't get up until late, and last night's hangover made him still groggy now.
The tent was empty, and all kinds of toiletries were neatly arranged.
Zhao Chen remembered the scene of pushing the cup and changing the lamp last night, and smiled: "This reckless Zhang Fei, drinking wine is really endless!" I'm still a little dizzy. ”
He got up and rummaged through the contents of his bag, looking for any tea to make so that he could sober up.
When he was in school at Agricultural University before, a few friends in the dormitory drank together, and he liked to use strong tea to sober up after a hangover, which was safe and effective.
I didn't find a trace of tea for a long time, so I had no choice but to give up.
Zhao Chen thought to himself, there is Zhang Fei in Liu Bei's camp, and drinking is indispensable in the future, or if you don't drink, you will definitely be filled with this Zhang Yide.
The amount of alcohol is innate, and it seems that you have to study how the tea is made on your own.
The sun shone in through the cracks in the tents, and in August, even though it was the middle of autumn, the sun was still hot.
Zhao Chen stretched his waist and walked out of the camp after washing.
There were several more fresh faces outside the tent, and Zhao Chen thought about it carefully and understood.
Now that he is a military advisor and does not know martial arts, Liu Bei will naturally send more personnel to protect him.
At this point, Liu Bei is still good to Zhao Chen.
Zhang Fei stood not far away, and when he saw Zhao Chen waking up, he ran over.
"Hehe, the military advisor is awake, the eldest brother told me to wait for you here."
"Wait for me?"
"Big brother said that I drunk you last night, and I have to be responsible for you today. When the eldest brother came to see the military advisor in the morning, the military advisor was still asleep, and the eldest brother asked me to stay, and they had already entered the city in the morning. I'll wait for the military advisor to wake up and go into the city together. ”
Zhao Chen smiled helplessly: "Yide is a real man, he can really drink!" ”
Zhang Feihan said with a smile: "The military advisor is joking, this is what to do, if I really want to drink it, you all have to drink it down, and it was restrained yesterday." ”
When Zhao Chen heard this, he hurriedly slipped in the direction of Huaiyin City.
Zhang Fei led two horses all the way over.
Zhao Chen was also happy, this Liu Bei was really righteous enough, and let Zhang Fei come and wait in person.
Zhang Fei rode a horse, talking and laughing, pointing at the landscape all the way.
"Ah, Huaiyin is a good place, there are mountains, rivers and lakes."
But Zhao Chen didn't listen to it at all, he didn't know how to ride a horse, he only rode on that trip to Inner Mongolia when he was in school, and he still had stirrups, and this horse didn't have stirrups, no focus point, and his feet couldn't clamp the horse at all, which made Zhao Chen's stomach turn upside down.
finally arrived in Huaiyin City, and the scenes inside and outside the city made Zhao Chen stunned.
I saw many people begging along the streets, and skinny children were lying on top of adults on the side.
Adults with broken bowls were in groups of three or five, leaning under the unbroken eaves, by the city walls, and by the river.
There was still blood on the ground that had not yet been cleaned up, and piles of grass and mud and rags, and people were rummaging for something.
When we entered the city, the avenue was full of dirt, and there was not a single decent stone slab. There were very few people on both sides of the city doing business, and the only shops that were open were grain stores, cloth shops, and nothing else.
Zhao Chen frowned.
"In the war, it is these Li people who suffer!"
Where can the people in power see the suffering of the Li people, except for blindly forcibly expropriating and expropriating the people, looting the people's fat and ointment, who still cares about their life and death.
originally lived at the bottom and suffered the most, no wonder the Yellow Turban Army rebelled, normal life can't survive, there is only one way to rebel.
Not for anything else, just for a bite to eat.
Zhao Chen lives in the 21st century, and in peacetime, he has no worries about food and clothing, but Zhao Chen knows that their lives are also exchanged for the birth and death of revolutionary martyrs.
He walked up to a child, took off his clothes, put them on, and distributed the food he had brought with him to the people who gathered around him.
"Fellow countrymen, as long as you follow Liu Xuande, I promise that you will have something to eat!"
This scene touched Zhang Fei very much, in his heart, only his eldest brother Liu Bei would care so much about Li Min, and only his eldest brother was running around for the people.
I didn't expect Zhao Chen to love the people so much at such a young age.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Chen was still winning the hearts of the people for his eldest brother at this time.
Zhang Fei secretly decided that in the future, no one should be allowed to bully the military advisor.
I saw Zhao Chen say to Zhang Fei: "I will ask Yide to inform Gongyou and Xianhe to meet at the county office, and I have something important to discuss." These people could not let them go hungry, so they gave them our food first. ”
"Military advisor Gao Yi!"
Zhang Fei took the order and left.
It is said that Mi Zhu made up his mind to fully fund Liu Bei, and the entire Mi family moved, especially his hometown far away in the East China Sea, counting materials, calculating manpower, and arranging the future business plan of the Mi family.
Mi Zhu knew very well in his heart that whether he could go further in this troubled era and include his family in the scholar clan would depend on August 15.
Money, food, horses, manpower and materials are nothing, but there is only one thing, he has never been sure, but it is also the most critical.
On this day in early August, Mi Zhu found his sister and discussed in the study.
Mi Luyun is twenty-eight years old, born slim and elegant, knowledgeable, and has been famous in the East China Sea before he was in time, and now he is as beautiful as a fairy, but the Mi family knows that although the young lady is a woman, she has her own ideas and is not bound by the world.
Mi Luyun pushed open the door of the study, saluted, and asked, "What is my brother looking for me?" ”
Mi Zhu didn't answer directly, but got up and saluted back: "Sister, please sit." ”
He saw Lu Yun in person, and he was a little ashamed in his heart.
The two siblings finished their seats.
Mi Zhu said slowly: "If there is chaos and disputes today, I am afraid that the Han Dynasty will end without change." ”
"Brother, although Cao Cao coerced the princes of the Son of Heaven now, it is still the Han Dynasty after all, so it is good to pay attention to the words between them."
Mi Zhu nodded, his sister is fine.
"Our Mi family has developed so far, and it cannot be said that it is rich and rivals the country, but it can still be called a thousand dollars. It's a pity that in this turbulent era, money alone is not enough, and if you want to go further, you can only take a career path. The reason why I followed Taozhou Mu before was to allow the Mi family to enter and leave the imperial court, but after the death of Lord Tao, there was no more benevolent lord in Xuzhou. Now that the opportunity has come, I plan to choose Liu Bei and tie the Mi family and Liu Bei deeply. ”
Mi Luyun seemed to understand whether she understood or not, and asked: "Although Luyun is a woman, she can also understand the hard work that her brother has paid for the development of the family. ”
Looking at Mi Luyun with clear eyes, Mi Zhu was a little reluctant in his heart, family marriage is a common thing, but after all, it is his sister, who grew up together since childhood, and has deep feelings, it is his brother's duty to find a suitable in-law for her.
But when it comes to political marriage, it is entangled in the heart.
Mi Zhu paused for a moment and said, "Liu Bei's wife is still in Xiapi. ”
In a few simple words, the smart and clever Mi Luyun will understand.
Xiapi is now in the hands of Lu Bu, and Liu Bei can't get it back, which means that Liu Bei doesn't have a wife by his side. The elder brother called himself in, just to use her identity as a woman.
Suddenly, her nose was sore, and tears unconsciously slipped down her cheeks.
Mi Zhu turned his back and continued: "Now is the best time, although Liu Bei is over thirty-five years old, he can be regarded as a hero in the world, and he is also the queen of King Jing of Zhongshan. Marry you to him, and our Mi family will be in a first-class position under Liu Bei's account in the future. ”
Mi Luyun wiped her tears and replied: "Brother knows that Luyun's wish is to marry a hero in the world. But Liu Bei is a hero, but he is already thirty-five years old, and Lu Yun has just passed the age of Luyun, and his brother can't ignore Lu Yun's happiness for the sake of family interests. ”
A young woman of twenty-eight years old who marries a man who is twice her age will of course be very bitter in her heart.
Mi Zhu let out a long sigh: "This is also a helpless move. ”
At this time, Mi Fang broke in and interjected: "Big brother, I found it, the person who made Yuan Shu suffer two defeats was found, it was a young man, twenty-two years old, named Zhao Chen, I heard that Liu Bei came to take refuge when he was in Xuantai." ”
Mi Zhu's eyes suddenly lit up, and a new idea formed in his heart.
"Sister, maybe there is another way to go."
