"Don't dare."
Huangfu Jianchang raised his hand, and the pride on his face almost read: Keep praising me, keep praising me.
Zhang Liao couldn't help but be startled when he saw it, not knowing how to answer the question.
Zhao Yun shook his head secretly and said, "Sit down and talk first."
Zhang Liao's expression changed and he nodded heavily.
After the three of them sat down, Zhang Liao's face was as dark as water and he said: "Ying Shijun is trapped in Zhending. Several waves of messengers were blocked outside the city. I just found out not long ago that five thousand people were sent there. I don't know if they will come." There’s enough time.”
Ying Shao was the shepherd of Jizhou. If he was killed by the Black Mountain Army, the blow to Jizhou and the imperial court could be imagined.
Huangfu Jianchang had no news either. He looked thoughtful and said, "No matter what happens in other places, the giant deer cannot be lost."
If the giant deer is lost, Jizhou will fall again.
Zhao Yun looked at him and said, "Second Young Master, is there any other way?"
Huangfu Jian glanced at him, thought about it, and finally said: "If necessary, I can mobilize soldiers and horses from Yanzhou, Qingzhou, and Bingzhou to come for reinforcements, but the situation in these three states is also not good, and there may not be many reinforcements. Um……"
Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao looked at each other, secretly shocked.
Even if Chief Huangfu Jian is the second son of Da Sima, he doesn't have such great power, right? Just say you're going to deploy troops?
Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Zhao Yun felt moved and raised his hand: "Second Young Master, the situation is critical now, please speak out!"
Huangfu Jian looked up at Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao, who looked grave and uneasy, coughed lightly and said, "Actually, there are still 20,000 troops in Bohai County."
Zhang Liao was startled and said, "Why don't I know?"
Bohai County is the easternmost part of Jizhou and is connected to Qingzhou. If there are 20,000 soldiers and horses there, why has the Black Mountain Army made no movement after fighting for so long?
Huangfu Jianchang also looked puzzled and said: "I don't know about this either. This is Cao Cao's general, Army Sima Xiahou Dun. His Majesty and the Grand Sima's Mansion's orders are in response to the envoy's restraint. Why has there been no movement for so long? …”
Hearing this, Zhang Liao began to think in confusion as well.
Ying Shao was besieged in Zhending for more than a month. There were obviously 20,000 troops in Bohai County, so why weren't they mobilized?
Is it because it can't be adjusted, or is it guarding against something?
Zhao Yun also couldn't figure it out and said, "I hope Ying Shijun is okay now."
Huangfu Jian glanced at the two of them, suddenly stood up and said, "I'll leave the affairs here to you."
Zhao Yun saw this, stood up and asked, "Where are you going, Second Young Master?"
They had just entered the city and their butts were not yet warm.
Huangfu Jianchang pretended to sigh and said: "The Prime Minister of Pengcheng, Liu Bei, is missing. I don't know whether he is dead or alive. I have to look for him."
Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao looked at each other and subconsciously guessed that this was the order given by Da Sima to Huangfu Jianchang.
Zhang Liao said: "Second Young Master, I will send a thousand people to escort you."
Huangfu Jianzhang waved his hand and said: "No, no, please be careful, I have to go."
Before he finished speaking, Huangfu Jian Chang patted his butt and left quickly.
Zhang Liao wanted to ask again, but was stopped by Zhao Yun.
Zhang Liao saw Huangfu Jian growing out of the door and asked Zhao Yun, "The second young master just left like this?"
Zhao Yun said in a straightforward tone: "If you don't understand him, he probably has other purposes."
Zhang Liao said solemnly: "But we can't leave like this, there are rebels everywhere outside."
Zhao Yun thought about Huangfu Jianchang's divine help along the way, and said pointedly: "He is the second son of Da Sima."
If Zhang Liao made any move, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he quickly said: "General Zhao Zhonglang, please."
Zhao Yun raised his hand politely, and the two sat down again to discuss the current countermeasures.
Huangfu Jianchang, who came out of the giant deer, and a dozen people, beat the horses hard and galloped quickly.
The military lord next to him followed closely and said curiously: "Colonel, why are you in such a hurry? Brothers didn't even have time to drink."
Huangfu Jianchang sneered and said: "I took out two thieves' dens, those people will react and go crazy? If you don't leave, you still want to be trapped for two months, right?"
The guards behind him immediately stopped talking and followed Huangfu Jianchang, beating their horses and galloping southward.
Although Huangfu Jianchang was looking for an excuse to leave Julu, his excuse was indeed true. He wanted to find Liu Bei.
The Hanzhong Prefect has been empty for too long!
Huangfu Jianchang went south to Xuzhou to look for Liu Bei, but Liu Bei was currently trapped on an isolated island offshore Guangling County.
Liu Bei sat on a stone by the sea, looking at the other side with a sad face.
The other shore was not far away, but for him, it was like a natural chasm, difficult to cross.
The stout Zhang Fei came from behind, with a strong and powerful voice, and said angrily: "Brother, that fellow Lu Bu is too hateful! If he hadn't attacked us sneakily, I would have killed him!"
Guan Yu then followed, holding a long sword and looking at the other side in silence.
Liu Bei sighed lightly and said with sorrow, "Is there no news from Governor Tao and the imperial court?"
Guan Yu said calmly, "Even if there is, we can't receive it."
Liu Bei looked even more worried and sighed again.
That night they were attacked by Lu Bu. They panicked and were chased all the way. They had no choice but to escape to this small island. They landed several times and had to retreat. They were trapped for more than a month.
Zhang Fei said angrily: "Brother, I can't bear it anymore! If we go ashore again tomorrow, the worst we can do is die with them, so we don't have to suffer this bird's anger!"
Liu Bei turned around and saw only a dozen people scattered behind him.
How did these dozen people get ashore? Not to mention the covetous Lu Bu, even ordinary bandits can annihilate them all.
Guan Yu stroked his beard, looked at Liu Bei and said, "Brother, why don't we prepare more food and cross the sea to Wu Commandery."
Liu Bei shook his head and said: "From here to Wu County, the sea is very windy and rough. If we are not careful, we will be buried in the belly of the fish."
"That's better than being treated like a fucking beast here!" Zhang Fei immediately said: "Brother, let's kill him back!"
Liu Bei looked at these two sworn brothers, and then turned to the dozen or so people behind him who were following him loyally. Seeing their hesitant expressions, obviously not wanting to stay on this desert island any longer, he frowned, pondered again and again, and said, "Okay, tonight Come ashore!”
Zhang Fei was overjoyed and said: "Brother, don't worry, if Lu Bu dares to come, I will definitely kill him!"
Liu Bei's heart was heavy and his face was smiling.
The two brothers in front of him, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, can be said to be tiger generals, but they are not wise men and cannot make suggestions for him and find a way out.
Liu Bei's journey along the way can be said to have gone through ups and downs, with ups and downs. Sometimes he was proud of his achievements, but most of them were in embarrassment.
He was almost in the same predicament as Cao Cao last year.
At night, more than ten people took two small boats and quietly rowed toward the shore under the cover of darkness.
They didn't dock until it got slightly brighter.
Zhang Fei, who was in the front boat, jumped down with his long hair in hand, turned around and said loudly: "Brother, second brother, you guys sit down and I'll go take a look."
Liu Bei was anxious and shouted quickly: "Third brother, wait a minute..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Fei and several people had already walked away.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry to the shore." Liu Bei urged the soldiers on the boat.
Five or six soldiers rowed hard and quickly reached the shore.
Liu Bei didn't wait to land before he said to Guan Yu: "Second brother, third brother is reckless. I'm worried that something will happen to him. You bring everyone to rescue him. Hurry!"
Guan Yu didn't say anything, and hurried over with his men.
Liu Bei stayed where he was, looking around, and felt a little relieved when he saw that there was no trace of Lu Bu's troops. Then he looked in the direction where Guan Yu and Zhang Fei left, with a look of worry on his face.
Waiting left and right, until noon, when Liu Bei was anxiously looking for it, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others came out of the woods talking and laughing.
"Brother!"
Zhang Fei carried a wild boar on his shoulders, strode like lightning, and shouted anxiously: "Good news! Good news!"
When Liu Bei heard this, he was surprised and happy. He quickly stepped forward and said, "Lü Bu has withdrawn?"
Zhang Fei threw the huge wild boar to the ground with his hand, and said with uncontrollable excitement, "Lü Bu's men have withdrawn. Brother, what I want to say is that you have been appointed as the prefect of Hanzhong!"
Liu Bei was stunned when he heard this, the governor of Hanzhong?
He was defeated by Lu Bu and his entire army was wiped out. He lost the Pengcheng Kingdom. Instead of asking him to be blamed, the court promoted him?
Liu Bian couldn't believe it and turned to Guan Yu.
Guan Yu smiled slightly and said, "It's true. Sun Jian was transferred to Wu Commandery and has already arrived. The imperial court sent more than a dozen letters, looking for his eldest brother everywhere."
Liu Bei was shocked in his heart. He made fists with both hands, raised his hands towards Luoyang, knelt down with a thump, and said loudly: "The emperor's kindness is so great, how can Liu Bei be so virtuous..."
As he spoke, he couldn't help crying, feeling guilty and excited at the same time, his voice was sincere and his tone was sincere.
After waiting for a while, Zhang Fei pulled him up and said, "Brother, the emperor is not here. Let's have a full stomach and get on the road to Hanzhong."
Guan Yu looked at Liu Bei and said, "Brother, please don't cry. My loyalty must be the reason for your majesty's promotion."
Liu Bei wiped his tears and then smiled and said: "My two wise brothers are right. Let's take a rest and set off immediately."
"That's right." Zhang Fei said, picked up the knife and walked towards the wild boar.
Liu Bei had been on tenterhooks for more than two months, and now he was filled with surprises and looking toward the north, looking excited, worried, and at a loss as to what to do.
Zhang Fei personally cooked the wild boar and said loudly: "Brother, the current situation is very complicated. Lu Bu seems to have defected to Dong Zhuo, occupying Pengcheng Kingdom and Langya County, and is attacking Xiapi. Sun Jian failed to attack Danyang and returned to Wu County. The troops have been organized. Yuan Shao attacks Jiujiang and Jiangxia from time to time, but has not succeeded for half a year. It is really in vain..."
Liu Bei was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly came over and asked, "How is Governor Tao doing?"
Liu Bei was highly valued by Tao Qian in Xuzhou and received a lot of care.
Zhang Fei buried his head in the sword and heard the voice and said, "I don't know. Some people say it's in Guangling, and some people say it's in Xiapi."
Liu Bei looked worried and said: "Two worthy brothers, I want to recruit troops again and go to Guangling to repay Governor Tao."
Guan Yu stood next to him, stroking his beard with his hand, his Danfeng eyes moved slightly, and said: "Brother, you are now the prefect of Hanzhong. If you go to Xuzhou, you must ask for permission in advance."
Liu Bei struggled for a long time and sighed, showing helplessness.
Zhang Fei had mostly cleaned up now, stood up and dragged the pig towards the seaside, and said loudly: "Brother, do you have any friendship with that Yuan Shao? What a great reputation, what an incompetent skill!"
Liu Bei sat on a stone, shook his head and said, "I saw it once from a distance."
Zhang Fei sat on the beach and said: "After half a year of fighting, even Zhang He can't beat him. How can he lose such a great reputation!"
Liu Bei turned to look south and suddenly said to Guan Yu: "Second brother, tell me what you have learned in detail."
Guan Yu came over and said: "Brother, Jingzhou..."
Jingzhou, Yuzhang County, Luling.
An inconspicuous tea shop located in the backyard.
Zuo Li was sorting out the information coming from everywhere, his brows were furrowed, his eyes were sunken, the bags under his eyes were heavy, and his snow-white face was a little haggard.
A chief minister stood in front of him and said, "Noble sir, the Cai family is really powerful. They actually blocked Ji Ling's 30,000-strong army in Lujiang River."
Zuo Li said solemnly, "Nanhai County has fallen into Yuan Shu's hands, and Jiaozhi County may not be able to hold it. Is there no news about Zhu Fu yet?"
Shi Chang said: "No, probably in Jiaozhi County."
Zuo Li's brows were so painful that he was about to speak when he heard footsteps and looked up.
A military prince came in and said with a happy face: "My lord, the news from Lujiang is that a man named Yu Jin defeated Ji Ling in Wan County. In Jiujiang County, Yuan Shao's general Yan Liang captured the three cities and fought with him. Zhang He fought for three days without a winner, and now Jiujiang County is divided into two."
Zuo Li was stunned when he heard this, and said: "You mean, over in Yangzhou, Zhang He was defeated?"
The military lord immediately said: "It should be like this. Sun Jian, the governor of Wu County, has conquered Wucheng!"
Zuo Li couldn't remember the locations, so he pulled out the map and slid his fingers on it like Liu Bian. It took him a long time to find Wucheng, and he couldn't help but frown and said: "Still in Wu County..."
After hearing this, the chief explained seriously: "My lord, once this Wucheng is lost, Danyang will be attacked from both sides. Once Danyang County is captured, Jiujiang will be an isolated city!"
Zuo Li suddenly understood and said hurriedly: "Is there any other news?"
The chief thought for a moment and said: "Wu Jing, the prefect of Danyang, fled to Lujiang with many aristocratic families. I heard that he was very close to the Cai family and others, and they also made many marriage contracts. Wu Jing is the brother-in-law of Sun Jian, the prefect of Wu County." . The Cai family and others plan to promote him and raise troops to resist Yuan Shu."
Zuo Li looked stunned and said, "Is there any more?"
Shi Changqing knew that he didn't understand, and said: "The other thing is, I heard that Yuan Shu is now Kuaiji, but I don't know whether it is true or not."
Zuo Li slowly loosened his brows and thought for a while, then said: "Send a message to various places, order everyone to pay close attention to the movements in various places, and report immediately! Then send a letter to the Grand Sima Mansion to report the battle situation."
"Yes!" Shi Chang, Junhou responded, turned and left.
Zuo Li sat down, picked up his pen, looked at the blank notebook, and considered his words.
Not long after, he began to write, summarizing the war situation in the south, and at the same time quietly adding some unfounded or unverifiable achievements to himself.
After writing it, Zuo Li looked over it again and again to make sure there was no problem. Then his expression became a little obscure and his eyes flickered constantly.
Lujiang seems to be defended, but there is still the danger of falling at any time.
After all, those aristocratic families were not appointed by the imperial court, and their names were not justified. Not to mention Lujiang, even Yuzhang was equally difficult to say safe.
'The ban? I don't know if this person is useful or not..." Zuo Li said to himself.
"My lord, it's not good!"
Suddenly, Na Shichang came back and said urgently: "The news I just got is that Zhang He defeated Yan Liang in Hefei and Yuan Shao retreated to Dangtu."
Zuo Li remained unmoved and just muttered: "What your Majesty said is indeed correct."
