Chapter 255
"Xuande won't be like this?" Yuan Shu said unsurely.

Yan Xiang said anxiously: "My lord is kind, take Liu Bei in. Even if you don't kill these repeated villains, you can't make them go. The Lujiang where Liu Bei went to guard is like a tiger returning to the mountain. If you want to rule it later, you can't get it."

Yuan Shu nodded, and said: "Yan Zhubo is right, I will call him back here. Someone, General Ji Ling please come."

After a while, Ji Ling came to the General's Mansion and asked, "My lord urgently summoned Ji Ling, why?"

Yuan Shu said: "Now that Liu Bei is leading troops to Lujiang, Fu Yi can lead a fast cavalry and recall them. I have other plans."

"Order!"

Ji Ling took the order, turned around, and led [-] cavalry to chase in the direction of Lujiang.

Let's say that Liu Bei is leading an army of [-] at the moment, Guan Yu is beside him, and two lieutenants, Le Jiu and Chen Lan, are running towards the Lujiang River at a fast marching speed.

Guan Yu who was standing next to him asked, "Brother, now that the Lujiang River has already been breached, why are you marching so fast?"

Liu Bei glanced at Chen Lan and Le Jiu, who were on both sides, and saw that they were just too busy running and had no time to take care of them, so he settled down.

Turning his head to Guan Yu's side, he said, "Second Brother, you and I have been trapped under people for a long time, like a bird in a cage or a fish in a net. With the Lujiang River as the foundation, I am like a bird flying into the blue sky, a fish entering the river and sea, unfettered by cages and nets, and unfolding my grand plans!"

After Guan Yu heard this, he suddenly realized that he said yes again and again, Liu Bei smiled slightly, and gave orders to step up the march.

When he was marching, a messenger rushed to Liu Bei and reported: "General, there is dust flying in the rear, and it seems that there are pursuers coming."

Liu Bei was taken aback, and said to Guan Yu, "This must be Yuan Shu's pursuer, hurry up and deploy!"

Guan Yu took the order, passed the order to Le Jiu and Chen Lan, and set up the formation in place. Guan Yu held the Qinglong Yanyue Saber and stood by Liu Bei's side.

Not long after, Ji Ling led five hundred cavalry to the front of the formation, and was a little surprised to see Liu Bei waiting in full force.

Liu Bei looked at Ji Ling and asked, "General Ji came here so fast, what's the matter?"

Ji Ling then got off his horse and went forward and said: "Uncle Liu Huang is hereby ordered by the General, and we have other discussions."

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "Didn't you hear that the general's military orders abroad will not be accepted? It is His Majesty's order for me to march this time, and I have been strongly recommended by the general. How can I return to the army and mobilize the troops for nothing?"

"This..." Ji Ling hesitated.

Liu Bei waved his hand and said, "General Ji, please come back quickly and report to General Ming for Bei. The situation is tense now, so we can't delay the schedule."

After hearing this, Ji Ling thought to himself: Although the lord is not very close to Liu Bei, he is not neglectful, and he is now the emperor's uncle, so he should not make mistakes easily. If you take ten thousand steps back, even if you want to use force, I guess you These [-] cavalry are not enough, it is better to reply to his words and ask the lord to judge.

"In that case, I will go back to my lord and explain the situation. The general can slow down and wait for the good news." Ji Ling said.

After speaking, Ji Ling got on his horse, resigned from Liu Bei, led five hundred soldiers, and returned to Shouchun, and told Yuan Shu everything about the situation after meeting Liu Bei.

After Yuan Shu heard this, his brows were tightly frowned, and Yan Xiang next to him hurriedly said: "Liu Bei refuses to lead the troops back, it can be seen that he must have a second heart."

Yuan Shu said with an ugly face, "Fortunately, I sent two lieutenants, Le Jiu and Chen Lan, by his side. Liu Bei may not dare to change his mind."

Yan Xiang shook his head and said, "Le Jiu and Chen Lan are Liu Bei's opponents? Besides, Guan Yu who is beside Liu Bei has the courage of a man, and General Fei Ji is unmatched. I am afraid that the two generals will not be able to make a difference."

After thinking for a long time, Yuan Shu waved his hand and said, "Let's forget about this matter. After all, I personally agreed to let Liu Bei go to Lujiang. How can I go back on my word so quickly?"

"My lord, you can't let it go!" Yan Xiang continued.

Yuan Shu frowned, and said: "Okay, Master Yan, step down. If that Liu Bei really doesn't know what to do, I will raise an army and destroy him!"

After finishing speaking, Yuan Shu turned around and walked towards the back hall, Yan Xiang could only sigh and left the General's Mansion.

After arriving at Lujiang County, Liu Bei called Chen Lan and Le Jiu to his side, and said, "The General sent you two generals to help me guard Lujiang. Don't slack off, lest you will be favored by the General Fu."

The two hurriedly cupped their fists and said: "The last general dare not, but the general has an order, and he will not hesitate!"

Liu Bei nodded and said, "In that case, Bei will trouble the two generals."

Chen Lan and Le looked at each other and said, "If you have any orders from the general, just ask."

"The two generals also know that the main purpose of our coming to Lujiang is to guard against Liu Biao in Jingzhou, and the nearest county in Jingzhou to Lujiang is Jiangxia County." Liu Bei said eloquently.

The two nodded. They both knew this, and knew that Liu Bei would arrange a task next.

Sure enough, Liu Bei smiled slightly, and said: "Before, Jiangxia County was guarded by Huang Zu, so don't worry about it. However, not long ago, General Wang Wei was transferred to Xinyang. If the two routes are sent together, it will be a threat."

Chen Lan nodded and said: "The general has any arrangements, just let me know, we will cooperate."

"Okay!" Liu Bei shouted, "Jingzhou divides the troops to put pressure on this, and I want to divide the troops to fight against it. General Le led [-] troops to garrison Bo'an, and General Chen also led [-] troops to garrison Longshu. The horns are just to restrain Liu Biao."

The two generals did not doubt that there was him, and they all nodded in agreement. With a little preparation, they can lead 3000 troops to garrison.

Seeing the two generals leading the troops away, Guan Yu said to Liu Bei, "Brother, why did you divide the soldiers and horses between these two?"

Liu Bei smiled slightly, and said: "These two are deputy generals, and they are used by Yuan Shu to monitor us. If I send them to other places, they can let go of their hands and feet and do a lot of work."

"Are you planning to attack Jingzhou?" Guan Yu asked.

Liu Bei paused, shook his head, and said, "Liu Biao is also a member of the Han clan, and we are of the same clan. We should not easily conflict. The most important thing at present is to develop our own strength."

Guan Yu nodded and said, "Brother is strategizing, and Yu is beyond his reach, but if you have an order, you will never refuse!"

"You and I are brothers, so you don't need to be so polite." Liu Bei smiled, "After a while, when the city of Lujiang is settled, my second brother will help me go out to recruit soldiers."

Guan Yu nodded and said, "Leave this matter to me, and I will definitely not disappoint my elder brother."

Liu Bei nodded, and said: "I have been wandering for many years, so that I can have the Lujiang River as my foundation. I must seize the opportunity, otherwise, it will be difficult to do anything in this troubled world."

At the same time, in Jinyang, Bingzhou, thousands of miles away, Zhao Qian was receiving a group of people in his mansion.

The leader is over sixty years old, with white beard and hair, not only looks dusty, but also a little tired.

The sixtieth old man cupped his hands and bowed, and said: "The guilty minister Lu Kang, I pay my respects to the general!"
