Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

Liu Bei took two steps, looked up at the sky, and said slowly: "I, Liu Bei, after King Jing of Zhongshan, great-great-grandson of Emperor Xiaojing, worshiped Lu Zhonglang as his teacher in the early years, and learned the way of Anbang and saving the people. I dare not boast that I have achieved something. , but I also realized that I hope that in the future I will be able to climb a high platform, clean up the filth, and restore the clarity of the world, but the world is difficult. Although I have ambitions, in the end I can only make a living by weaving mats and selling shoes."

"When the Yellow Turban was in trouble, I studied military law again, hoping to help the court put down the rebellion and give the people peace. Although I was appointed a minor official because of my military exploits, I was not tolerated by traitors. I had no choice but to continue wandering and find a way out."

"Although it was difficult during this period, I was never discouraged, because there are two brothers who will never leave. The three of you and I work together, and we can't go anywhere in the world. It doesn't matter if you fall down for a while. It's just a matter of time before you get ahead."

"Well, speaking of it, I should thank the two virtuous brothers. If you two were not here, there would have been no Liu Xuande in the world. Yun Chang and Yide, please accept my worship."

As Liu Bei said, he wanted to present a big gift to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. The two were shocked when they saw this, and hurriedly leaned over to pull Liu Bei, not daring to accept Liu Bei's gift.

Guan Yu raised his head, his voice trembling, and said: "Brother, what are you talking about? How many years have we been brothers, why do you say what those outsiders say?"

Zhang Fei also said anxiously: "Brother, if you are like this, won't you ruin me and my second brother?"

Liu Bei shook his head lightly, regardless of the obstruction of the two of them, his body pushed down slightly, seeing that Liu Bei's hand was about to ooze blood again, the two of them had no choice but to let go of their hands, and then looked at Liu Bei who was saluting and got up with complicated expressions. at a loss.

Liu Bei sighed, his face became a little more gloomy, and continued: "In the early years, I saw that the two of you were not as powerful as ordinary people, so I chatted with the two of you. Become Jinlan brothers, support each other, and hope to achieve great things in the future."

"Although there were many ups and downs before, things were not going well, and there was no improvement, but I thought at the time that although the career was not successful, our horizons have been broadened a lot, and as long as you and I do more benevolent things, slowly To build a reputation, those who have gained the Tao will help more, just wait for the time to come, and you will surely be able to accumulate a lot of money and soar into the sky!"

As Liu Bei said, his eyes couldn't help but have a lot of longing and hope, as if he saw the future he wanted most, but soon, the brilliance in Liu Bei's eyes quickly dimmed, and the same was true for Guan and Zhang, because they They all thought of one person, and that was Li Yi.

"what"

With a sigh, Liu Bei shook his head, and looked in the direction of the road again. He didn't know whether he was looking at the city or the people in the city. After staring for a long time, Liu Bei suddenly said: "Yun Chang, Yi De, we, no, Let's go, let's go."

Chapter 470

"Let's go away"

Guan Yu looked at Liu Bei in astonishment, his face was full of shock and bewilderment, as well as heartache.

The three brothers walked along the way, although as Liu Bei said, it was bumpy and not smooth at all, but no matter how difficult the situation was before, no matter who among the three, they never thought of breaking up.

But Liu Bei suddenly proposed this, and Guan Yu really couldn't accept it.

Zhang Fei thought he had heard it wrong, and asked in a daze, "Brother, what did you say?"

Liu Bei sniffed, turned his head, a little afraid to meet the eyes of the two of them, and said in a low voice: "I said let's break up, it means everyone leave."

Zhang Fei's eyes gradually widened, and finally he opened his mouth and shouted, "Brother, what nonsense are you talking about!"

"It's not nonsense, it's just a wise choice."

Liu Bei's voice was not loud, but his chest heaved very violently, which shows what kind of waves he had in his heart when he said these words.

"Ahhh!"

"Smart choice for shit!"

Zhang Fei couldn't help but cursed, this was the first time he cursed at Liu Bei, but neither Liu Bei nor Guan Yu said anything about him.

Zhang Fei's face was a little ferocious, he pointed in the direction of the city, and said angrily: "Brother, you said that because Li Yi wanted my life, but today is so dangerous, the three of us can get out of the body, wait Back in Lanling, with soldiers and horses in hand, still need to be afraid of him? Does he dare to attack the city? Even if that is the case, at worst, we will die with him and let him lose face, but what is the reason for us to break up first!"

Liu Bei's voice was still calm, and asked: "Those soldiers and horses, how many of them are willing to fight to the death for you and me?"

Zhang Fei's expression froze, and he suddenly lost his voice.

Liu Bei is now in charge of a lot of soldiers and horses. Among them, 4000 Qingzhou soldiers were given to him by Tian Kai, and more than 3000 Xuzhou soldiers were given to him by Tao Qian. In addition to these, after Liu Bei arrived in Lanling, in order to defend the city, he gathered refugees , recruited strong men and civilian husbands, and got more than 1 people. Adding up these, Liu Bei has almost [-] people under his command.

1 people, at first glance, can be regarded as a large force, but in fact it is very bad. The people Tian Kai gave were naturally not elite, with ordinary combat power, and they were asked to follow a man who was obviously not a core figure. When Liu Bei came to Xuzhou to fight, the morale of the army has always been very bad. That is to say, Liu Bei was very calming, and if he changed his troops to lead the troops, there would probably be many deserters.

The 4000 people Tao Qian gave were considered elite, but Tao Qian was the one they really obeyed. Although Liu Bei was capable, he had no time to subdue these people.

In the end, the people recruited by Liu Bei had a good sense of Liu Bei, but the time was too short, they didn’t have much training at all, and they lacked weapons and armor. life.

Under such circumstances, it is okay for Liu Bei to assign soldiers and horses to fight Cao Cao, but if he is asked to take people to fight Li Yi, it will be too difficult to mobilize, and it is likely to be the kind of situation that is about to collapse.

Zhang Fei was naturally aware of the situation in the army. A look of unwillingness flashed in his eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Then we brothers will leave Xuzhou. The world is so big, there is no room for us!"

Liu Bei looked up and sighed: "Nowadays the world is gradually chaotic, wars are constantly going on everywhere, and ambitious people are everywhere. You and my brother are not from a famous family. How should we stand in this chaotic world?"

"It's not soldiers, it's not cities, it's just fame!"

"Li Yiruo is just powerful, and I am not afraid of him. Even if he has a hundred thousand elite soldiers, I am not defeated today, and I will worry about it in the future. However, Li Yi's reputation is too high, and he is the pillar of China in the eyes of everyone. Tao Shi Jun said that Li Yi is comparable to the champion Hou, but in my opinion, Li Yi is now more important than the emperor, and far better than the former champion Hou Yu Xiaowu."

Liu Bei spread his hands weakly, and said with a wry smile: "Tao Qian was willing to treat me with courtesy, but after Li Yi spoke a few times, he was already estranged, and even had a murderous intention. Before, Youzhou and Qingzhou were not allowed. Let's wait, now Xuzhou can't tolerate it. Although the world is big, there is really room for me? Hehe, why do you want to be ambitious? Forget it, let it be."

Liu Bei's voice was very depressed. He was hit too hard. For Liu Bei, no matter how difficult the situation was, he could accept it. He could cheer up and fight hard, but now the road ahead is dark, and there is no hope at all. , This is how Liu Bei fights, how to fight?

Seeing that Liu Bei was so disappointed, Zhang Fei did not lose his temper, but calmed down a lot. Looking at Liu Bei, he asked earnestly, "Is the elder brother going to retire? You and I have already said that when we became sworn brothers, we will live and die together, and share wealth and honor. If elder brother Gui Yin, my second brother and I will also follow, we can still be happy together, second brother, do you think so!"

However, Guan Yu's phoenix eyes were lowered, but he did not agree with Zhang Fei's words.

"No!"

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "Li Yi has repeatedly framed me and harmed me. Although I don't know why he did it, Li Yi is extremely determined to kill me. Therefore, even if I go back to hiding, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape his murderous hands. Moreover, today Under the eyes of everyone, the military order has been signed. If I hang up the seal and leave, doesn't it mean that Li Yi's various framings are true. If it is confirmed that I am a treacherous villain, then what will the world think of me? What face do I have to live on? In the world?"

Guan Yu finally spoke at this moment, and asked, "Brother, do you really want to fight Xia Houyuan to your death according to the military order?"

Liu Bei nodded slowly, and said word by word: "A man stands in the world, his body can be destroyed, and his name cannot be destroyed. Even if the sky wants to kill me, I will let the world see clearly whether my Liu Bei's heart is black or white! "

"Brother, you"

Zhang Fei was a little surprised. At first he thought that Liu Bei was completely depressed, but he didn't expect that Liu Bei was really going to fight Xia Houyuan to save his reputation.

Guan Yu said in a deep voice: "Big brother is so brave! It's just why big brother abandoned me and Yide. Could it be that big brother thinks that my third brother and I are people who are greedy for life and afraid of death?"

"Of course not."

Liu Bei smiled wryly and said: "If you make meritorious deeds and win fame, even if it is dangerous, I will be brothers, but this time I am asking for death, Yun Chang, Yi De, so if I still let you two go together, I will And he and his face claiming to be his elder brother?"

"Big brother!"

Zhang Fei said with tears in his eyes, "Could it be that my second brother and I can watch you fight desperately with others?"

Liu Bei also had red eyes, but he didn't answer Zhang Fei's words, but said to him: "After the two of you leave, don't go back to Hebei again. Gongsun Zan will die at the hands of Yuan Shao sooner or later if he acts recklessly. But the ambition is too obvious, and it's not a good place to go. Alas, the world is so big that probably only Yizhou can live in peace. You can go to Yizhou in the future, but don't ask for an official career, just use the savings of these years to become a rich man , marry a wife and have children, do more good deeds, and I will feel at ease when you will be full of children and grandchildren in the future."

Zhang Fei felt more uncomfortable when he heard it, and suddenly said loudly: "Okay, brother wants me to go, so I'll go!"

After Zhang Fei finished speaking, he turned around, Liu Bei couldn't help being taken aback, but Guan Yu grabbed Zhang Fei and asked, "Where is Yide going?"

Zhang Fei poked his neck and said, "I'll go back, I'll vote for Li Yi, and I'll take his head tonight! It's over, I'll come back and have a drink with my elder brother and second brother, if it doesn't work, just let me go first!"

"you"

Guan Yu didn't know what to say. He didn't think Zhang Fei could assassinate Li Yi, so he could only hold Zhang Fei. Fortunately, although Zhang Fei was very depressed, he didn't really want to leave, so he just stood there and didn't move. .

Seeing that Zhang Fei was relieved, Guan Yu took a step forward and said to Liu Bei, "Brother wants to save Yide and I, and I am very grateful. But why does my brother only care about his own loyalty, but trap me and my third brother in an unrighteous way?"
