The next day,
Dawn, like a sharp sword, splits the silent night and welcomes the rising sun.
Today, I don’t know why, maybe it’s because the constant arrival of Han army reinforcements has put a little pressure on the Yellow Turban Army, maybe it’s because the Yellow Turban Army’s huge casualties in recent days have made them unable to bear it.
Or maybe it was both. In short, the Yellow Turban Army today was uncharacteristically not taking the initiative to attack.
At this time, Li Xiang and Xue Rengui stood quietly in front of Liu Beijun's camp gate.
However, it is not so much the camp gate of Liu Beijun as it is the camp gate of Gongsun Zan.
Today, Liu Bei is just a leader of the rebel army, with less than a thousand men under his command, so he is not qualified to be an independent battalion. It was only because he and Gongsun Zan were from the same sect that Gongsun Zan asked Liu Bei to set up a camp with him.
Even if Liu Bei hadn't pretended to be Lu Zhi's disciple, he wouldn't have been qualified to enter the lobby to discuss matters yesterday.
In the distance, I saw Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei walking quickly, followed closely by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
"Unexpectedly, General Li is here. It really makes me shine." Before the people arrived, Gongsun Bogui's voice came from afar.
Today's Gongsun Zan is still very generous. What's more, as a hard-liner against the northern barbarians, Gongsun Zan greatly appreciated Li Xiang's order to kill the barbarians. Now when Gongsun Zan saw Li Xiang, it was like meeting his close friend.
"Hahaha, General Gongsun has been so powerful in Northern Xinjiang over the years. He has killed people from the Xianbei and Wuhuan tribes with fear. Xiang has been a close friend for a long time, but now he is lucky enough to meet General Gongsun." Li Xiang said. Face said politely.
Everyone supported Huahuaqiao, and since Gongsun Zan was so polite, Li Xiang naturally responded with peaches and plums.
What's more, you won't lose anything by complimenting others, and you may gain unexpected gains instead.
"I wonder who this general is?" Li Xiang asked pretending to be curious.
At this time, Li Xiang finally turned the topic to Liu Bei. After all, he was here for Liu Bei today.
Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be invincible. Li Xiang came today to explore the background of the three Taoyuan brothers. If Li Xiang can test out the skills and effects of these three brothers today, it will be easier for them to become enemies in the future.
As for the reason why Li Xiang pretended not to know Liu Bei, it was naturally because there were so many people in the lobby yesterday that Lu Zhi could not introduce them one by one. Only Liu Yu, Yuan Shao, etc., those with higher status and special status, were introduced to everyone one by one.
Liu Bei was just a small leader of the rebel army, without any military position, even though he was nominally a disciple of Lu Zhi. With Lu Zhi's temper, he would not waste words on such an important occasion.
"I am Liu Bei, whose name is Xuande. I am the queen of King Jing of Zhongshan. These two people are my brother-in-law Guan Yu, whose name is Yunchang, and my brother-in-law Zhang Fei, whose name is Yide."
Before Gongsun Zan could say anything, Liu Bei stepped forward and answered first.
Although Gongsun Zan was not happy about this, he didn't say much. As brothers, the two of them naturally cannot create a gap over such a trivial matter. What's more, after many years of getting along with him, Gongsun Zan was somewhat used to Liu Bei's behavior.
"It turns out that they are the three Taoyuan brothers who are powerful in the land of Youyan, but Xiang is blind. I never thought that General Liu is actually a member of the Han family. It is really disrespectful and disrespectful." Li Xiang said politely.
This time, the Yellow Turban Rebellion quickly made many people famous.
In the Central Plains, Cao Cao is the most famous, and he has offered suggestions to repel the Yellow Turbans several times, but in the north, the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang are the most famous.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei led their troops into the thousands of troops several times, forcing the Yellow Turban Cheng Yuanzhi to retreat and flee again and again, causing the Youzhou Yellow Turban to be completely suppressed by the Han officers and soldiers.
And this scene, in a situation where the Yellow Turbans had the upper hand in the overall battle situation, was so unexpected. Therefore, Liu Guanzhang's reputation in the north is growing.
It is not difficult to understand what Li Xiang said at this time.
"General Li has actually heard of Bei's reputation." Liu Bei pretended to be surprised.
"General Liu is too humble. The name of the three Taoyuan brothers has spread throughout the north. How could Xiang not know about it? To put an end to the Yellow Turban Rebellion, we need more talents like General Liu." Li Xiang remained the same as before. said politely.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for gaining 9 summoning points from Liu Bei. He currently has 291 summoning points."
Li Xiang never thought that Liu Bei would actually contribute the summoning points to him like this. He was already prepared for a long-term battle.
Little did they know that although the crisis was already evident at this time, it was not yet to the point where the building would collapse in the future.
Although Liu Bei also had ambitions at this time, he was not yet that high. It is naturally not as difficult for Li Xiang to brush Liu Bei's summoning points as he imagined.
"Hahaha, General Li, Xuande's two sworn brothers are both brave enough to be worthy of any man. The general behind you that day was also the most brave among the three armies. How about you and the other two using martial arts to make friends."
At this time, Gongsun Zan suddenly spoke.
As the owner of this place, Gongsun Zan saw that these two people were chatting so much that he could hardly get a word in, so he immediately changed the subject.
After hearing this, Li Xiang immediately gave Gongsun Zan a secret thumbs up in his heart. Isn't this one of the purposes of coming here?
But even so, Li Xiang still looked embarrassed. But secretly he gave Xue Rengui a gesture.
The reason why he only asked Xue Rengui and not even Xing Tian was that Li Xiang naturally wanted to keep a trump card for the time being.
Moreover, if Xing Tian showed his edge early, then I am afraid that when Chi You, who was balanced in the Yellow Turban, takes action, Li Xiang will not be able to deceive these heroes of the late Han Dynasty to the greatest extent.
If Chi You can unexpectedly kill a few more generals who are his future enemies, then Li Xiang will be even happier.
After seeing his lord's secret signal, how could Xue Rengui not understand his lord's intention?
…
On the school grounds, Xue Rengui, dressed in white horse and white armor, stood aside holding a halberd.
Opposite him is Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide, who are dressed in black horse and black armor.
With their level of martial arts, they could naturally feel the powerful aura of the person opposite them, and neither of them dared to be careless. They stared at each other closely, trying to detect the other's flaws.
However, there may still be flaws in a martial arts skill practiced to the level of two people, but it cannot be seen in a short time.
But the two of them still didn't move. At this time, it was just a competition, not a battle on the battlefield.
Killing on the battlefield is all about being fast, ruthless, and accurate, with the goal of maximizing the damage to the enemy.
But in the school competition, both of them had reservations about their moves. In this situation, when masters compete, whoever strikes first will easily reveal flaws.
After a long time, after all, Zhang Fei at this time was not the future Mr. Zhang who had experienced hundreds of battles. He finally couldn't bear the pressure and took the lead.
