Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

From the perspective of others, it may be thought that Liu Bei would bring at most two hundred guards with him when he went to Tan County, so if he sent a random general and ordered a thousand soldiers, Liu Bei and others could be left behind.

But Li Yi knows that Zhang Fei and Guan Yu are enemies of ten thousand people. Although they can't really single out ten thousand people, their fierce aura spread out, making hundreds of ordinary soldiers stop and dare not step forward. It's not difficult.

Dian Wei can do it. When Dian Wei singled out a group of people in the army, he chased a group of people and beat them all by himself.

Moreover, Lu Bu's Chituma is still under Guan Yu's crotch. Whether Guan Yu used the speed of the Chituma to behead the people he sent, or used the Chituma to send Liu Bei away at a critical moment, it is very important. Bad result.

Therefore, if Li Yi wanted to ensure that Liu Bei was kept, he would not be at ease if he did not send thousands of people.

Then here comes the problem. Although Tao Qian asked Li Yi to help in the battle, Li Yi quietly sent thousands of vanguard troops to kill people under his nose. This is too much, and once Tao Qian sends troops to stop him , things will be difficult to end after that.

So, Li Yi had no choice but to suppress the urge to kill Liu Bei and move on, and then, something Li Yi didn't expect happened.

When it was two days away from Tan County, Liu Bei actually sent a team of people to bring a lot of wild fruits and fine wine to Li Yi. The military officer who took the lead said that half of these gifts were given to him by Liu Bei, and the other half were gifts from Li Yi. The people in Lanling City gathered together to give it to Li Yi, not for anything else, but everyone wanted to thank Li Xianghou for his generous help to Xuzhou.

Li Yi looked at the things Liu Bei gave him, his face was very exciting, and he felt uncomfortable all over, especially when he found that the people who delivered the things came all the way with drums and gongs, and even held a big banner to welcome him, Li Yi felt his eyes hurt even more.

However, the people who sent the things were not local soldiers in Xuzhou, but the people from Lanling. Everyone looked at Li Yi with gratitude, which made Li Yi unable to find fault even if he wanted to. In the end, he could only squeeze out Smile, have a friendly chat with the gift givers, and then send them back to report.

After those people left, even if Li Yidang asked someone to go to a nearby village and town to buy a few dogs to test the poison, Li Yi didn't think Liu Bei would kindly give him things, but the dogs were a little dizzy after being drunk too much In addition, there is no other sign of dying, that is to say, the things Liu Bei gave him are non-toxic.

But Li Yi was very suspicious, so he tried it with cattle, sheep and horses, and the result was still normal.

So Li Yi was puzzled, and immediately recruited everyone to help him think about why, but before everyone could discuss the result, there was another sound of beating gongs and drums outside, and asked people to ask, but it was Liu Bei who Here comes the gift.

There are not many things, twenty sheep, but there are more than 200 people who deliver things, half of them are still civilians, half of soldiers, that's all, what's more annoying is that the sound of beating gongs and drums is bigger than before

At this time, Li Yi already had a little understanding of what Liu Bei wanted to do. This was to create public opinion, to praise Li Yi high enough, and at the same time let people see how polite Liu Bei was to him. So, in this situation Now, if Li Yi still harms Liu Bei, the reputation pressure he needs to bear will naturally be much greater than before.

Li Yi never expected that Liu Bei would have this trick, and he was extremely depressed, but he still resisted the urge to drive people away, and received those who gave gifts, but Li Yi didn't accept any more things, but said something The famous saying "take it from the people and use it for the people", and then directly distributed the things Liu Bei sent to the people around him, actually earned him some fame.

After that, Li Yi stopped discussing with everyone, and directly told everyone his deduction, and even asserted that Liu Bei would continue to give him gifts in the future, and as expected, when he camped in the evening, Liu Bei asked someone to bring some cloth.

Regarding Liu Bei's performance, it was the first time that Li Yi's counselors really felt Liu Bei's performance.

After all, they are as big as Li Yichou, if they were Liu Bei, they probably would have run away long ago, but not only did Liu Bei not run away, but he also used this method to create pressure on Li Yi, making it difficult for Li Yi to kill him. It is this courage that makes people not to be underestimated.

Therefore, although Liu Bei's gift made Li Yi very depressed, he finally got a little gain, that is, these people around Li Yi finally no longer paid attention to this person simply because Li Yi wanted to kill Liu Bei, but It's true, treat Liu Bei as an opponent.

In this way, after receiving several big gifts from Liu Bei one after another, Li Yi finally came to Tan County.

Although Tao Qian is a state shepherd, he is on the same level as Li Yi, and he is still his grandfather's generation in terms of age, but when it comes to welcoming Li Yi, he gave Li Yi enough face, took all the civil and military personnel in Xuzhou, and went straight out of the city. Welcome Dori.

After getting Tao Qian's attitude from the scouts, Li Yi was rather surprised. After thinking about it, he asked Zhang Zhao to hide behind the team first.

Originally, Li Yi's idea was a bit bad, and he wanted to use Zhang Zhao to annoy Tao Qian and create a small conflict, which might be useful in the future, but Tao Qian is so polite, and Li Yi stepped on others' face when he came up, it's too ignorant It's funny, and it also seems that he is too frivolous.

After thinking about it, Li Yi ordered the army to stop three miles away from the pavilion where Tao Qian was, as a gesture of politeness, and then let Xu Huang stay in charge of the troops, and he only brought two hundred cavalry, as well as Dian Wei, Huang Zhong Four generals, Wei Yan and Gan Ning, went to meet Tao Qian.

As for why these fierce men were brought along, it was because Li Yi had already learned that not only Tao Qian but also Liu Bei were welcoming him today!

Chapter 461 Li Yi is a real gentleman

Tao Qian was told by his subordinates that Li Yi only brought 200 people to meet him, and he was secretly relieved.

Although he made a very polite gesture first, but Li Yi is so young after all, and his position is so high, if he unwittingly brings tens of thousands of people to gallop in front of him, then his old face will be lost.

Judging from the news obtained now, although Li Yi is helping the battle, he still respects him a lot.

Tao Qian couldn't help showing a smile, and said to the left and right: "Everyone, follow me to welcome the Marquis of Xiang!"

Everyone responded, and immediately followed Tao Qian out of the pavilion in order.

Liu Bei glanced ahead, waited until everyone was almost gone, and then followed up, silently walking at the back of the crowd, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei followed closely behind Liu Bei.

Letting Liu Bei go at the end was not because Tao Qian deliberately underestimated him, but because his weight was a bit off.

Now, although Liu Bei was promoted by Tao Qian to General Zhonglang and acted as the magistrate of Lanling County, he can be regarded as a high-ranking official in Xuzhou, but he is an outsider after all, and this official position has a temporary nature. Xuzhou's original generals are much worse.

Moreover, Xuzhou officials now know that Liu Bei and Li Yi seem to have some kind of conflict. When Liu Bei first came to Xuzhou to fight the fire, it was okay. At that time, the situation was urgent. Many people expressed their gratitude to the person who helped Xuzhou, but in Later, after hearing that Li Yi was coming, many people's attitudes towards Liu Bei changed immediately.

Because anyone with a discerning eye knows that Liu Bei is weak and Li Yi is powerful, so it is self-evident who should be chosen to make friends.

Seeing that everyone was alienating himself and others, Zhang Fei was very angry when he saw that the crowd was alienated from Liu Bei when he first came to Xuzhou. He couldn't help cursing in a low voice: "It's no wonder that they can resist Cao Cao. It turns out that they are all mediocre people!"

Guan Yu hurriedly reminded in a low voice: "Third Brother, don't talk nonsense!"

But although Guan Yu reminded Zhang Fei in this way, when he looked at others, his gaze was even more unkind, and he was just being patient.

Knowing that the two of them had resentment in their hearts, Liu Bei shook his head and asked, "Yun Chang, Yi De, why do you only see others despise you and me, but you don't see Tao Shijun's good intentions?"

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's faces immediately turned hot, and they said in shame, "What brother said is true, I will be taught."

Liu Bei smiled slightly and said, "Okay, cheer up, Li Yi is coming."

As Liu Bei's voice fell, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei looked up together, and saw a cloud of smoke and dust rising in the distance. Soon, the smoke and dust gradually approached, and the sound of horses' hooves sounded. First, the words "General Zhengnan" and "Jingzhou Mu" were painted on several sides. The big banner appeared, and then more than a hundred elite cavalry rushed towards this side.

Liu Bei looked at those banners and suddenly felt a little dazed. The villain who stabbed him at the beginning, it has been a long time since he was gone, and he is already an extremely human minister, it is really unimaginable.

But what about him?

Still busy running, living under the fence, not even a place to settle down.

Liu Bei always felt that those things should have belonged to him, but now they were snatched away by Li Yi one by one.

Subconsciously, Liu Bei stretched out his hand and lightly pressed on his chest, where Li Yi had once stabbed him.

An emotion full of violence and unwillingness rose in his heart, Liu Bei's face turned ferocious for a moment, but soon, he was suppressed by Liu Bei, and he stood there silently with his hands down, just like everyone else, waiting for Li Easy to appear.

But Guan Yu and Zhang Fei didn't have that much patience. Both of them raised their heads, stared at Li Yi's direction with wide eyes, as if they wanted to kill Li Yi with their sight immediately.

The speed of the cavalry was very fast, and in just one or two breaths, Li Yi in a brocade robe appeared in front of everyone. Li Yi jumped off his horse when he was still seven or eight feet away, and glanced at the crowd , and soon identified which one was Tao Qian, so he stepped forward quickly, and at the same time praised in his mouth: "Li Yi, the late student, came to pay a visit to Xuzhou Tao Shijun today. The journey was delayed, and Tao Shijun waited for a long time. I hope you don't blame me!"

After Li Yi finished speaking, he was about to salute Tao Qian. At this time, Tao Qian also came up to greet Li Yi, and when Li Yi was only halfway through the salute, he took his arm and repeatedly praised: "Good! Good! Good!"

After saying three good words in a row, Tao Qian leaned back slightly, looked Li Yi up and down seriously again, and praised again: "What a hero out of a boy!"

Li Yi hurriedly bowed and said, "Mr. Tao has said too much, and Yi is terrified."

Tao Qian shook his head and smiled, "Xianghou is too self-effacing. At your age and with your achievements, the Han Dynasty was only a champion for 400 years. Today, you are only ten years old, and you just want to stabilize the court. What's more rare is that he is calm and calm, has a certain amount of advance and retreat, and although he is in a high position, he is not arrogant. This old man also admires it, hehe, I am dissatisfied with you, when this old man is your age, he is far behind you."

Keeping Li Yi humble, Tao Qian turned to those Xuzhou officials and asked, "Do you think so?"

"Yes, the reputation of Marquis Xiang's loyalty is well known in the world, and I admire it very much."

"Xianghou is a great hero. He killed Dong Zhuo first and then defeated Yuan Shu for the great man. Such an achievement is admired by the world."

"The Marquis of Xiang is anxious and righteous. This time Xuzhou is in trouble, and it is all up to the Marquis of Xiang."
