The crowd walked all the way, and after walking for a long distance, suddenly a drum sounded, and a group of Cao Jun's troops appeared. The general at the head was Zhang He, and he shouted: "Liu Bei, please dismount and accept the surrender!" Liu Bei was about to retreat. Later, suddenly another group of Cao's troops came out of the dock with the red flag Shandong above, and the general at the head was Gao Lan.
At this time, Liu Bei was attacked from both sides and felt very desperate. He looked up at the sky and said, "This is God trying to force me into a desperate situation! When things have reached such a point, I might as well die!"
Yu Yi stood aside and was about to persuade, but suddenly Liu Pi was in front and hurriedly stopped him: "We haven't reached that point yet, let me fight to the death first and fight a bloody path for you!" After that, he took the initiative to attack Gao Lan. During the battle, Liu Pi's martial arts skills were too low, and he was hacked to death by his opponent in three rounds.
When Liu Bei saw this situation, he became even more panicked and prepared to fight on his own, but was stopped by Yu Yi.
Yu Yi said: "Brother, it doesn't matter, I'm still here!" After saying that, he raised his iron halberd and stepped forward to fight Gao Lan.
The two fought for several rounds, and Gao Lan gradually fell into a disadvantage. Liu Bei was very surprised and thought to himself that Yu Yi's martial arts level had improved a lot. In order to solve the problem as soon as possible, Yu Yi did not care about morality and saw the two horses intersecting. At this point, Gao Lan had fallen off the horse. Looking at the ground again, a flying knife appeared on Gao Lan's neck. He seemed to want to speak, but soon after, he stopped moving.
Liu Bei was very happy. Yu Yi turned around to deal with Zhang He, but found another group of people coming. The leader was carrying a bright silver gun and wearing a bright silver helmet. Who was it if it wasn't Zhao Yun? So he shouted Zhao Yun's name. .
Zhao Yun led his troops to kill all the remaining members of Gao Lan, and then walked in front of Yu Yi to fight Zhang He. Zhang He was good at martial arts and took Zhao Yun thirty rounds. Then he began to show signs of defeat. Zhang He himself Knowing that he couldn't beat the other party, he didn't force anything and just turned around and left.
Zhao Yun took advantage of the situation to pursue and kill a large number of Cao's troops, but Zhang He guarded the entrance to the mountain road. Because the road was narrow and impassable, some Cao's troops from behind also surrounded and killed him.
Yuyi saw this situation and knew that Zhao Yun was surrounded by the opponent. Liu Bei was also very anxious at this time, worried about Zhao Yun's safety.
Suddenly, another group of troops came from that direction. It was Guan Yu, Guan Ping and Zhou Cang who came over with more than 300 people. They attacked twice. Zhang He had no choice but to retreat temporarily. Through the geographical advantage of the mountain, he defended a dangerous situation. point.
Liu Bei asked Guan Yu to find Zhang Fei. It turned out that Zhang Fei went to rescue Gong Du, but he arrived too late. He had been killed by Xia Houyuan. Zhang Fei fought hard to repel Xia Houyuan and was about to leave, but was surrounded by Yue Jin's troops.
Guan Yu happened to encounter the defeated army, followed the trail, and killed Le Jin. Then he gathered with Zhang Fei and went to see Liu Bei at the same time.
Someone reported that Cao Cao's army had already arrived. Liu Bei asked Sun Qian to protect the young and old and leave first. He and other generals retreated while fighting. Cao Cao saw Liu Bei walking farther and farther and knew that the opponent was no longer in a good mood. I stopped chasing and concentrated on studying the situation in Hebei.
At this time, Liu Bei's defeated army was less than a thousand men, and everyone was disgraced and embarrassed. When they arrived near the Han River, Liu Bei set up camp.
When the locals heard that it was Liu Bei, they immediately donated all their sheep wine, and then everyone drank on the beach.
Liu Bei looked up to the sky and sighed: "You are all talented and strategists who have assisted the overlord. You are unlucky to follow me. My bad luck has affected everyone. Now I don't even have a place to stay. I am afraid of delaying you. Why don't you give up on me?" , and are we looking for some wise men to serve?"
Everyone shed tears after hearing this, except Yu Yi who stood there blankly.
Guan Yu advised: "Brother, what you said is not right. In the past, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty and Xiang Yu fought for the world, and were defeated by Xiang Yu many times. Later, he succeeded in the battle at Jiuli Mountain and created a four-hundred-year-old foundation. Victory and defeat have been achieved since ancient times. It’s a common thing for military strategists, why should we let ourselves down?”
Sun Qiandao: "I think success or failure all depends on timing. You can't lose your ambition."
At this time, Yu Yi also had something to say. First of all, he targeted the allusion mentioned by Guan Yu and said: "When the Gao Han people summarized their victory, they named three people: Han Xin, Xiao He, Zhang Liang, and now Cao Thief. Unlike Xiang Yu, Xiang Yu couldn't follow Fan Zeng's advice and was a warrior, but Liu Bang was able to follow good advice. Although Cao Cao was a Han thief, he followed advice and was able to make good use of his advisers, so he was invincible. His eldest brother failed several times. It’s not that I’m unlucky, I think I just lack a counselor, and do you have the heart to listen to suggestions?”
These words revealed the essence. Sun Qian was afraid that Liu Bei would not be able to accept it, so he came out to persuade: "The matter has come to this, we still have to find another place to live."
I thought Liu Bei would defend himself again, but this time Liu Bei didn't say anything and directly asked Yu Yi what he thought. As usual, Yu Yi told Yunnan's plan. This time Liu Bei didn't scold him.
Liu Bei's change from his previous state gave Yu Yi confidence, and he analyzed: "After we occupy Yunnan, we have a large rear area. We can attack when we advance and defend when we retreat. In my opinion, Yizhou will be exhausted sooner or later." Will be replaced. Liu Biao of Jingzhou is a miser. The battle between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao in the Central Plains has already concluded. Soon Yuan Shao will be defeated thousands of miles away, and his three sons will not be spared. If the eldest brother can occupy Yizhou and Yunnan at this time, Territory, then the world will form a three-point situation. In this process, the eldest brother should pay attention to the courtesy of the virtuous corporal, gather talents from all aspects, and then attack from Qishan, then the Han Dynasty can prosper, and the eldest brother’s hegemony is just around the corner!"
After listening to Yu Yi's analysis, everyone looked at him with admiration. Liu Bei was also very surprised. He did not expect Yu Yi to have such a grand idea. The important thing is that the plan behind this idea has been listed.
Liu Bei nodded, expressed his apology, and said: "I misunderstood you before. I always thought you were doing it to become king. Now it seems that everything you did was to prosper the Han Dynasty. However, Yunnan is far away from us. There are also many warlords, how to control these?”
Although Yu Yi had the idea of establishing a foundation from Yunnan, he had not fully thought about how to move the large army. He was actually asked by Liu Bei and did not know how to answer.
At this time Sun Qian came out and said: "I see this place is not far from Jingzhou. Opposite the river is Liu Biao. He controls nine counties and has abundant soldiers and food. Moreover, like my lord, he is a member of the Han clan. Why don't we go? Are you going to defect to him?"
Liu Bei said: "Although we are of the same blood, he should not be able to tolerate me."
Sun Qian said: "My lord, don't worry about this. I will lobby him, and he will definitely come out to welcome my lord into Jingzhou in person."
Liu Bei was very happy and asked Sun Qian to go to Jingzhou overnight to build a bridge.
