Yuan Shu said: "Sun Ce borrowed my soldiers and horses to fight. Now Jiangdong has been basically pacified by him, but he doesn't want to repay me. Instead, he comes to ask me for the jade seal. It is really rude. How should we retaliate against him!"
General Yang, the chief historian, said: "Sun Ce is no longer in the same position as before. Now that he has occupied Jiangdong and defended the dangers of the Yangtze River, it is difficult for us to do anything. It is difficult for us to do anything. It is better to attack Liu Bei first, and we can also take revenge on him before. It's not too late to attack our hatred for no reason, and then attack Jiangdong. I have a plan in mind, and Liu Bei will be captured alive by us soon."
After being provided with new ideas, Yuan Shu asked: "Look, how to attack Liu Bei."
He replied: "After Lu Bu's sneak attack, Liu Bei defended Pei. This place is very easy to fight. But Lu Bu is now in Xuzhou. We promised to give him some money and food before, but we haven't given it yet. I'm afraid he will join forces with Liu Bei by then. Now We should first send money and food to Lu Bu and make an alliance with him. We don't need him to help us. As long as we don't help Liu Bei, then Liu Bei will be able to capture her easily. It will be easy to capture Queen Pei and then plot against Xuzhou."
Yuan Shu thought it was reasonable, so he took out 200,000 dendrobium from the granary and sent Han Yin to find Lu Bu with the secret. Lu Bu was very happy, treated Han Yin favorably, and promised that he would never help Liu Bei.
Han Yin went back and told Yuan Shu about the situation. Yuan Shu immediately sent Ji Ling as general, Lei Bo and Chen Lan as deputy generals, commanding tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to march towards Pei.
The news soon spread to Pei. Liu Bei had been waiting for an opportunity, but he didn't expect it to be such an opportunity, so he had to invite everyone to discuss how to deal with this situation.
Zhang Fei was very happy when he heard that there was something to do, and said: "There is nothing to discuss, we will just fight directly."
Sun Qian reminded: "Pei has little food and few troops. How can we resist an army of tens of thousands? We'd better write to Lu Bu and ask him to assist."
Zhang Fei said: "It would be great if that guy Lu Bu didn't add insult to injury. Why would he come to help us!"
Liu Bei said: "Sun did the right thing."
Yuyi stood aside and did not express any opinions, because the top priority was indeed to write a book more effectively.
Liu Bei then wrote a letter with the following content in his heart: "Thank you so much for your care, General. I can now have a place in Pei. This is really a great kindness. Now Yuan Shu has come to avenge himself and sent Ji Ling to attack with troops and horses." I, I am in danger now, and only the general can save me. I hope to send out troops to rescue me in urgent need, thank you very much."
Yu Yi also read this book. It is really sensational. I'm afraid Lu Bu can't do it without saving him.
Sure enough, after reading the letter, Lu Bu came to Chen Gong for discussion and said: "Yuan Shu sent food and letters earlier to ask me not to help Liu Bei. Now Liu Bei comes to me for help. I think Liu Bei is stationing troops in Peitun. , is weak and poses no threat to me, but if Yuan Shu annexes Liu Bei, he will definitely continue to plot against me, and I will definitely not be able to sleep peacefully. If not, I might as well go rescue Liu Bei." So he ordered his troops and prepared to set off.
Ji Ling led his soldiers forward and arrived near the southeast of Pei. They set up camp, planted flags, and set up fire drums at night. The sound and light spread to Pei.
There are only more than 5,000 people in Pei, and there is no place for the troops and horses. They can only camp outside the city. Yu Yi looked to the southeast, and suddenly felt a little excited inside. He could gallop on the battlefield again, which was perfect for training. Test your own martial arts and see if you can kill a few generals in single combat and become famous.
Liu Bei and others had just finished their work when someone suddenly reported that Lu Bu had come with troops and horses, only one mile away, and was setting up camp in the southwest.
Ji Ling got information and knew that Lu Bu sent troops to rescue Liu Bei, so he quickly sent someone to write a letter, full of blame in his heart, but Lu Bu did not keep his word.
Lu Bu also began to think about a solution and said with a smile: "I have an idea so that neither Liu Bei nor Yuan Shu will resent me because of this matter!"
So he sent an envoy to Ji Ling and Liu Bei's camp to invite them to drink.
Liu Bei received the invitation and was about to leave. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei objected together, saying: "Brother, you can't go. If you go at this time, Lu Bu will definitely have different intentions and your life will be in danger."
Liu Bei said: "Don't worry, I am very good to Lu Bu and he will definitely not harm me."
Yu Yi looked at Zhang Fei and said, "You and your second brother can go with you. To protect your elder brother, I will guard the camp. If anything happens, I will come to help you."
So Liu Bei mounted his horse and moved forward, followed by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and arrived at Zheng, Lu Bu's camp.
Lu Bu smiled and said, "I'm here specifically to help you this time. If you succeed in the future, don't forget me!"
Liu Bei thanked him and said, "That's for sure!"
So Lu Bu asked Liu Bei to take a seat. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stood behind with their swords drawn. Lu Bu looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and asked, "Why didn't you see Yu Yi coming?"
Liu Bei cupped his hands and said, "My fourth brother is unwell, so I let him stay in Pei."
While they were talking, someone suddenly reported that Ji Ling had arrived. Liu Bei was very surprised when he heard it and was about to find a place to hide.
Lu Bu explained: "I specially invited you two here, don't be suspicious."
Liu Bei forced himself to suppress his emotions, but he couldn't figure out what Lu Bu's intention was, so he was always uneasy.
Ji Ling dismounted and entered Lu Bu's camp. He was shocked when he saw Liu Bei sitting next to Lu Bu. He pulled away and prepared to leave. He could not stay with him at all. Lu Bu stepped forward and grabbed Ji Ling back, just like catching a chicken.
Ji Ling was frightened for a moment and said, "Is the general planning to kill me?"
Lu Bu shook his head and said, "No!"
Ji Ling asked again: "Are you planning to kill Liu Bei?"
Lu Bu continued to shake his head and replied: "Not really!"
Ji Ling was a little confused about the situation and asked, "Then what do you mean by bringing us together?"
Lu Bu explained: "You don't know something. Liu Bei is actually my brother. Now he is trapped by the general, so I came to save him."
Ji Ling said: "So you still want to kill me?"
Lu Bu said: "That's not the case. I have never liked fighting in my life. I like to mediate conflicts. Now I am here to mediate the conflicts between you."
Ji Ling asked: "I wonder how you plan to mediate our conflicts?"
Lu Bu said: "I have a way, let you decide!" Wan took Ji Ling to the camp to meet Liu Bei.
The two were enemies. After meeting, they became suspicious of each other. Lu Bu sat in the middle, Ji Ling sat on the left, and Liu Bei lived on the right. They asked people to start serving wine and food.
