"Virtuous brother," Liu Bei's astonishment flashed across his eyes, and then he said with joy, "Since the fall of Guangling, I can't find you for my brother, but you are here. I thought that for my brother..."
Liu Bei is really talented in acting. After seeing Guan Yu, he was surprised and joyful. When he said that later, the tears flowed down. In the blink of an eye, he had changed several expressions. Liu Bei said, One side has to fight right away,
Jian Yong stretched out his hand and said in a low voice, "Master, there is something wrong with the second general."
Needless to say, Liu Bei had already noticed something strange in this, because the thousands of cavalry behind Guan Yu, all in black and black armor, looked grim. They were exactly the outfits of Liu Xin’s soldiers. When Liu Bei saw Guan Yu, the reason for the astonishment flashed in his eyes, but Liu Bei immediately noticed that Guan Yu was still wearing this old robe, which was given to him by themselves when they were married. This shows that, Even though Guan Yu had surrendered to Liu Xin, he still missed the brotherhood with him. Therefore, Liu Bei was happy again. Liu Bei did not believe that Guan Yu would be harmful to him. He waved his hand at Jian Yong and continued to ride forward. ,
However, Guan Yu slowly raised the big knife in his hand, pointed the tip of the knife towards Liu Bei, and said, "Big brother, wait a minute, please listen to my younger brother."
Liu Bei was really surprised this time. Guan Yu had never pointed him at him with a knife, so he could not help but restrained his horse. He asked in a deep voice, "Did the virtuous brother surrender Liu Xin,"
Guan Yu shook his head and said, "The eldest brother was wrong, and the younger brother did not surrender Liu Xin. He just did his best for the Han Dynasty."
"It's not all the same," Liu Bei sighed and said, "Xian brother, I also know that after the fall of Guangling, you have to return to Liu Xin's servant. I’m afraid it’s too bad, you and my brothers, I don’t dare to ask you to make a way for my brother, virtuous brother, so you will catch Liu Xin and go for a good birth for my brother."
Having said that, Liu Bei suddenly rolled off his saddle and knelt down in front of Guan Yu. Jian Yong and Sun Gan who followed were shocked.
Guan Yu was also deeply surprised. He hurriedly abandoned the knife, jumped off the horse, and came to Liu Bei in three steps in two steps. He lifted Liu Bei up and said: "The older brother used to teach the younger brother to take Kuang and help the Han room as his own responsibility. The younger brother is really loyal to the Han family instead of betraying his elder brother. Liu Xin has a good saying that the world of this big man is not of any family or surname, but the world of all the big men. The eldest brother also knows that Liu Xin is powerful and Xuzhou is weak. In a battle against him, if you continue to be an enemy, it will only be a waste of life and increase your sins. Please think twice."
In the past few days, what Guan Yu thought about the most was what Liu Xin said, but what really changed his thinking was the rapid march that day and night.
Liu Xin only gave him three thousand cavalry. In Guan Yu’s view, it was Liu Xin who was still suspicious of him and did not dare to entrust him with heavy troops. However, when he was actually marching, Guan Yu found out that among the three thousand cavalrymen, there were even companies. There is not a single lieutenant, and the highest official position is only three thousand chiefs. However, the whole team is still strictly disciplined, and it is truly prohibited. There is no soldier crying bitterly or tiredly. Although Guan Yu still I haven't seen their performance on the battlefield, but this strict military discipline alone is definitely not comparable to an ordinary army.
What surprised Guan Yu even more was that this army was able to insist on not harming or disturbing the people. Because they marched overnight without seeing the road clearly, a small group of cavalry accidentally stepped into a wheat field, and their commander personally found the farmhouse. , The compensation was paid in full. This is something that other armies didn’t even think about, but this naturally affected the speed of the march. Guan Yu couldn’t help but urge the commander, but the commander said, they They were the soldiers of the common people. They did not fight for the glory and wealth of any one person, but to enable all the people to live a stable and happy life. This event greatly motivated Guan Yu, and he already vaguely understood Liu. Xin said the meaning of that sentence,
After listening to Guan Yu's words, Liu Bei looked startled and suddenly raised his head to the sky and laughed, and said: "Being a brother is different from a virtuous brother. If a virtuous brother voted for Liu Xin, he would definitely be reused. If a brother voted for him, I'm afraid he will die without a place to be buried , Brother Xian, don’t say more, so I’m going to ask Liu Xin for credit as a brother, please."
Guan Yu listened to Liu Bei's decision and couldn't help but stepped back. He was a man of love and righteousness. Although he was willing to issue a military order in front of Liu Xin when he came, he would wait until he really saw Liu Bei. I can't do it anymore,
"Fine," Guan Yu turned on his horse, made a gesture, and ordered the soldiers to give up a path, arched their hands towards Liu Bei, and said, "Brother, you go over."
When Guan Yu gave this order, he was a little worried that his soldiers would not listen to his order. As a result, the soldiers quickly stepped aside without frowning. In fact, this was the first time Guan Yu led the Han army to fight. He still doesn’t know the military regulations of the Han Army, whether it is a regular army or a local army. For officers and soldiers under the commander of thousands, unconditional obedience to orders is the first military law. If a captain or other generals are present, they Perhaps he would criticize Guan Yu’s act of letting off Liu Bei, but Liu Xin had calculated that Guan Yu would not embarrass Liu Bei, so he did not arrange for other generals to come with him.
Liu Bei secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Guan Yu finally let him go because of his brotherhood. At the moment, Liu Bei didn't hesitate anymore. Brother, you and I will say goodbye, I hope there will be a chance to meet again in the future,"
Guan Yu did not speak, watching Liu Bei lead the army passing by him, thinking that in the past, the two people were eating at the same table and sleeping at the same table. His heart was extremely sad. He suddenly yelled and said, "Hold on,"
Liu Bei was just waiting to escape from his birth. Hearing this shout, Guan Yu regretted it. He could not help strangling the horse, but he clenched the pair of double-stranded swords in his hands. He slowly turned around and saw Guan Yu take off his body. He said in a deep voice: "Big brother, if we say goodbye today, you and I will be like passers-by. This robe was given to the younger brother by the older brother, and the younger brother gave it back to the older brother. Since then, it is ruthless."
Having said that, Guan Yu threw the old robe into the air with all his might, then waved his hand, where the blade flashed, the robe turned into butterflies in mid-air.
Liu Bei smiled miserably: "What a cut off his robe and righteousness, good brother, please take care of yourself,"
Since Guan Yu had already set up ambushes in advance, this valley could no longer be their home for Tibetan soldiers. Liu Bei's original plan fell to no avail, and he had to take a man and horse through the valley.
Sun Gan said in a puzzled way: "Excuse me, the lord, why don't you return to the city and stick to the danger,"
Jian Yong smiled bitterly: "Gongyou, even Guan Yu voted for Liu Xin. How can the city be defended, but one thing is unknown to the subordinates. The subordinates see that Guan Yu's subordinates are only a few thousand people. It's a complete victory. Since Guan Yu has abandoned his brotherhood, why bother to ask him so hard?"
In the current situation, Liu Bei’s troops have an absolute advantage in number, but the battle to chase Mi Zhu impressed Liu Bei. He knew the strength of the Jingzhou army. At that time, he also helped Yu Yu, but now Guan Yu has become an enemy. Liu Bei knows very well that although the opponent has only a few thousand cavalry, but with Guan Yu added, I am afraid that 20,000 people on his side are still not opponents. Moreover, since Liu Xin has buried ambushes here, who can know if there is anything else around him? The army, in Liu Bei's opinion, Guan Yu just turned to Liu Xin. Liu Xin should not rest assured that Guan Yu will lead the army alone. Therefore, it is okay if you don't make a two-handed battle. If you make a move, you will lose.
When encountering Guan Yu’s ambush, Liu Bei certainly no longer hopes to be able to keep this small site in Xuzhou. He only hopes to preserve some of his strength as much as possible, and to increase his bargaining chips for a place under Yuan Shu in the future. In this case, he Of course, he won’t let his troops fight with Guan Yu, which will only increase the loss.
However, Liu Bei wouldn’t tell Jian Yong and Sun Gan if these people’s ambitions extinguished his prestige. Liu Bei said bitterly, "Two gentlemen, Liu treats Guan Yu better than his brother, but Liu Xin can give it to him. I couldn’t give it to him, so he surrendered to Liu Xin, but I didn’t blame him at all.”
In fact, Liu Xin did not give Guan Yu any glory and wealth, and Guan Yu is not rare that Liu Xin can give him glory and wealth. The only thing he rares is a woman, but this woman was first boarded by Liu Beijie. This is what caused the relationship between them. The key to the crack is that neither of them has noticed it yet.
Liu Bei saw that Jian Yong and Sun Gan were a little depressed because of Guan Yu’s demise, and felt uncomfortable. He sighed and continued: "If I use my army to fight, I can rely on myself to win, but you think about it. Thinking, since Liu Xin sent Yun Chang to guard here, why not send more soldiers and horses to him. This is Liu Xin’s poisonous trick, causing me and Yun Chang brothers to kill each other. Yun Chang has been deceived by Liu Xin. How can I get caught in Liu Xin's trap again, and leave a silver lining to life, there will be a chance to redeem it in the future."
Jian Yong repeatedly admired: "The Lord is benevolent, Yun Chang mistakenly casts the thief, it's a pity,"
Sun Gan also sighed and asked, "I don't know where the lord is going,"
At this point, Liu Bei didn't have the need to keep hiding from Sun Gan. He pointed at the west with his whip and said, "For the current plan, we have to vote for Yuan Shu."
Sun Gan said in shock: "Even though Yuan Shu came from a famous family, he is arrogant and extravagant. He exorcises the common people and has a lot of petty behaviors. If you are not the master of the chaos, how can you vote for him? Hope the Lord will think twice."
Liu Bei sneered in his heart. If Yuan Shu is a wise lord, he would go to him for something. It is because Yuan Shu is incompetent that he will be able to get the chance to get something out of the way and make another world. However, these words can't be done to the grandson. Gan Mingyan, when Liu Bei was thinking about how to explain to Sun Gan, there was a sudden rush of horseshoes.
A soldier hurriedly came over and said loudly: "Tell the lord, the big thing is not good, Guan Yu led the cavalry team to chase and kill them.
Liu Bei yelled: "Nonsense, how can Yun Chang be an unbelieving person? He will never turn back."
