Legend of Summoning of the Three Kingdoms

When the four of Liu Bei arrived in front of Kong Rong's camp, Kong Rong had already received the news, and they were waiting for Liu Bei and his party at the gate of the camp. General Wu Anguo.This is enough to show that Kong Rong attaches great importance to Liu Bei.

When Liu Bei saw Kong Rong waiting for him in front of the camp gate, he was a little excited. He dismounted from his horse and said to Kong Rong, "It's Xuande's fault that Governor Kong is waiting here."

Kong Rong smiled and said to Liu Bei: "Xuande doesn't need to say more, just follow me into the camp."

Then Liu Bei and the others entered Kong Rong's camp under the guidance of Kong Rong and Wu Anguo.

In Kong Rong's camp, Kong Rong led Liu Bei and the others to sit down in his big tent, and then Kong Rong asked Liu Bei, "I wonder what Xuande thinks about the current situation in Xuzhou?"

Liu Bei pondered for a while and then said to Kong Rong: "It seems that Cao Cao may not dare to attack Xiapi even though he has an army of [-]. Attack Cao Cao back and forth together. Even though Cao Cao has many soldiers, he cannot escape defeat."

Kong Rong stroked his beard and agreed: "Xuande's words are very reasonable, but it's not an option for us to go on with this stalemate with Cao Cao. Although Cao Cao has an army of [-], he has captured several cities in Xuzhou one after another. There is enough food and grass, but I didn't bring much food and grass when I came to rescue Xuzhou, if this stalemate continues, it will be bad for us."

Liu Bei also frowned slightly when he heard the words: "Then I don't know what clever plan the prefect Kong has?"

Kong Rong smiled bitterly: "There is no clever plan. Cao Cao has an army of [-], and the reinforcements you and I brought together are no more than [-]. Meeting Cao Cao head-on is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg and killing oneself. And I recently observed that Cao Cao used troops. They are very cautious, and there are few omissions. In my opinion, we might as well continue to confront Cao Cao like this. Although our army does not have much food and grass, we can persist for a while. We should deal with it calmly and not take the initiative to provoke. Wait and see Its change, and the same should be used to respond to all changes. In this way, even if Cao Cao has all kinds of means, we can also deal with it."

Liu Bei frowned even more when he heard the words, but he didn't speak, but Zhang Fei couldn't sit still.

Zhang Fei raised his voice and said loudly to Kong Rong: "Then according to what Kong Rong said, is it that we just stay here and do nothing? Then what are we doing here in Xuzhou? Why don't we disperse as soon as possible and go back to our homes. "

Kong Rong was very unhappy when he heard Zhang Fei's words.Zhang Fei is too ignorant of etiquette, Liu Bei hasn't spoken yet, but you jumped out.

Seeing that Kong Rong's complexion had turned dark, Liu Bei felt displeased, and quickly winked at Zhang Fei. At this time, Guan Yu also said, "Third brother, the prefect Kong must have his thoughts this time, don't worry too much about it." Word."

Under the persuasion of Liu Bei and Guan Yu, Zhang Fei finally restrained his emotions and retreated to his position.At this time, Liu Bei also opened his mouth and said to Kong Rong: "My third younger brother is reckless and doesn't know etiquette, so I offended him a lot just now. Please forgive me, Governor Kong."

After Liu Bei said this, Kong Rong's face looked a little better, but Kong Rong's mood was not much better after being disturbed by Zhang Fei just now.

"Since Xuande and your third younger brother are dissatisfied with me, Xuande must have made a plan in his heart. I don't know if you can tell me and let me listen."

Liu Bei just had a wry smile in his heart at this time, and then he said to Kong Rong: "What the prefect Kong said just now is a good plan, but we may be able to survive for a while with the food and grass brought here. Then Tao in Xiapi City However, Zhou Mu and others may not have so much food and grass. Cao Cao sent troops to attack Xuzhou because of the death of his father Cao Song. They captured all of them. But Taozhou Mu might not have expected that Cao Cao would reach Xiapi so quickly, so Yibei estimated that there might be some food and grass in Xiapi city, but there must not be much, otherwise Taozhou would Mu would not let Mi Zizhong come to Beihai to ask for help from Prefect Kong. Now, Xiapi City has been under Cao Cao's strong attack for more than several months, and a lot of food and grass must have been consumed during the process. We can persist, but Taozhou Mu It might not be able to last.”

Kong Rong frowned when he heard that, obviously what Liu Bei said was not unreasonable.

Then Kong Rong asked Liu Bei, "What can Xuande do?"

Liu Bei thought for a while and then said: "The most important thing now is to find out what the situation in Xiapi City is like, otherwise I will not be able to act. If I don't do it well, I may scare the snake and be arrested by Cao Cao. Calculation. According to Bei, we should get in touch with Xiapi city first."

After saying this, Kong Rong said to Liu Bei with a bitter face: "Now Cao Cao has surrounded the city of Xiapi with an army of [-]. It is not easy to send the news in. If he is caught by Cao Cao on the way I am afraid that the life and death of our army is completely under the control of Cao Cao."

At this time, Liu Bei said with emotion: "The current strategy is to lead people to break through Cao Cao's siege and enter the city of Xiapi, so that we can know what the situation in Xiapi city is like now."

Kong Rong was shocked and said: "Then Cao Cao has one hundred thousand troops in his hands. Even if you add the three thousand cavalry in Xuande's hands to Captain Zhao's, it is only six thousand soldiers. It's hard to get to Xiapi city."

At this time, Liu Bei thought to himself: "How can I use [-] soldiers and horses if I want to fight to the Xiapi city? I only need Yide to go with me. The Cao army outside the Xiapi city is just a bunch of worthless people. Nothing to be afraid of."

Kong Rong still persuaded: "How can Xuande be like this? Cao Cao has countless strong generals, even though Yun Chang. The two generals Yide are very skilled in martial arts, but I am afraid that they will not be able to benefit from the strong generals under Cao Cao." .”

Liu Bei said firmly to Kong Rong: "Prefect Kong don't have to worry, this time Yide and I will lead a thousand soldiers and horses to go, and Yun Chang and Zilong will stay under the command of Prefect Kong and obey his orders. "

Kong Rong wanted to say something more, but was overwhelmed by Zhang Fei's thunderous voice: "Prefect Kong, you are too cowardly, so how could Cao Cao's trash be my opponent? , I will definitely bring the head of Cao Cao for you to drink."

Kong Rong didn't seem to hear Zhang Fei's words.If Guan Yu said this, Kong Rong might still believe it a little bit. After all, Guan Yu's record is much better than that of Zhang Fei, whether it was beheading Hua Xiong outside Sishui Pass, or fighting Dian Wei in front of Hulao Pass. Work together to defeat Lu Bu and even capture Guan Hai with a single recruit outside the North Sea.It's all to show that Guan Yu's strength is extraordinary.

As for Zhang Fei, since his debut for so many years, although he has participated in many battles with Liu Bei and Guan Yu, he has not had any outstanding records, so it is no wonder that Kong Rong does not trust Zhang Fei.

In Kong Rong's view, Liu Bei's strongest subordinate is Guan Yu, while Zhang Fei's voice is louder at most, and his strength should be similar to his own Wu Anguo's. At most, he is a little stronger than Wu Anguo, but he is also very strong limited.

But at this time, Kong Rong noticed that Wu Anguo was winking at him, and then recalled that when Liu, Guan and Zhang arrived in Beihai, he asked about the strength gap between Wu Anguo and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. What did Wu Anguo say? He is far inferior to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.At that time, Kong Rong only felt Wu Anguo's self-effacing words at this time, but now it seems that it is not the same thing.

Then Kong Rong asked Liu Bei, "Can Xuande be sure?"

Liu Bei laughed and said, "How can Xuande do things that he is not sure about? Please rest assured, Governor Kong."

Then Liu Bei said to Zhao Yun who was on the side: "During this time, Lao Zilong has been under Kong Taishou's command."

Zhao Yun looked gentle, and said to Liu Bei and Kong Rong: "Before leaving, the general ordered Zilong to follow Xuande's orders in everything he went south this time."

Seeing Zhao Yun's answer like this, Liu Bei smiled wryly in his heart.

Chapter 2 Twelve Liu Bei Enters the City

After discussing with Kong Rong, Liu Bei returned to his camp, and then ordered [-] elite soldiers with Zhang Fei, and handed over the remaining [-] soldiers to Guan Yu, who asked Guan Yu to serve under Kong Rong's orders.And Zhao Yun and the three thousand cavalry under his command went to Kong Rong's subordinates to temporarily obey Kong Rong's orders.

After Guan Yu and Zhao Yun led a total of [-] soldiers to Kong Rong, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei also led the [-] elite soldiers to the direction of Picheng.

Before Liu Bei and Zhang Fei approached Xiapi City, they had already seen Cao Jun who surrounded Xiapi City.Looking at Cao Cao's army with fierce expressions and well-equipped equipment, even Liu Bei couldn't help admiring that Cao Cao's army was all elite.If the [-] troops Cao Cao brought this time were the same as the one in front of him, then Cao Cao would be a bit scary.

In Liu Bei's eyes, these elites under Cao Cao's command were already close to catching up with the elites brought by Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao when they fought in Jizhou.

The elites under Gongsun Zan back then were not at the same level as those under Gongsun Xu now. The army under Gongsun Xu now is much weaker than the army under Gongsun Zan back then.Even though many of Gongsun Xu's soldiers are now under Gongsun Zan's, the current Gongsun army is still weaker than the Gongsun army in Gongsun Zan's time.

In other words, the recruits recruited by Gongsun Xu greatly lowered the overall combat effectiveness of the Gongsun Army. The Gongsun Army in Gongsun Zan's time were all veterans of many battles, but now Gongsun Xu's Gongsun Army is basically veterans leading recruits, not all veterans team.There is a huge gap between the combat effectiveness of veterans and recruits.

The biggest difference between veterans and recruits is whether they have seen blood, and the difference between seeing blood and not seeing blood is not the slightest bit.In Liu Bei's view, these soldiers under Cao Cao are all veterans who have seen blood.

Liu Bei was right. Most of the [-] troops under Cao Cao were recruited from the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans. The Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were very fierce, and naturally they had seen blood.And after these Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were captured by Cao Cao, Cao Cao selected the young and strong among these Qingzhou Yellow Turbans to add to his command.

However, although these Cao Jun soldiers are all elites, Liu Bei has no fear at all. Even these elites, Liu Bei does not think that these troops alone can block his assault, and the reason why Liu Bei is so confident is the biggest reason. The reason is Zhang Fei beside him.

If Cao Cao's army presses up, then the thousand soldiers of Liu Bei and Zhang Fei will only hit the stone with an egg and never return.But now the Cao army in front of Liu Bei is obviously just one of Cao Cao's soldiers used to besiege Xiapi City, and the number is definitely only a few thousand.

So Liu Bei and Zhang Fei led a thousand soldiers and horses to rush towards the thousands of Cao Jun.And Liu Bei and Zhang Fei led a thousand soldiers and horses to kill, of course they couldn't hide it from this Cao army.At this time, one of the thousands of Cao troops suddenly appeared, holding a spear, watching Liu Bei and Zhang Fei rushing towards him, with a hint of disdain on the corner of his mouth.

Only 1000 people dare to come to fight with thousands of people. These thousand soldiers are really not afraid of death.

But although he didn't believe that these 1000 men could break through the defense line set up by his thousands of men, Yu Jin was cautious by nature and would not be negligent just because the opponent had only 1000 men.

At this time, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei had already led a thousand soldiers and horses to kill Yu Jin. In front of the formation of the two armies, Zhang Fei rushed towards Yu Jin like a fierce tiger.

Seeing Zhang Fei's appearance, Yu Jin was shocked, and was almost frightened by that Zhang Fei.But Yu Jin is not an ordinary person. When he saw that Zhang Fei was about to kill him, he quickly calmed down and said to the rushing Zhang Fei: "I am Yu Jin, the captain of General Cao Cao of the Zhendong General. Who is coming? Dare to name it?"

"Yu Jin?" Zhang Fei carefully thought about Yu Jin's information in his mind. After thinking for a while, he really couldn't think of who this famous person Yu Jin was, so he gave up thinking about it.Although there are many famous people under Cao Cao's command, he has never heard of Yu Jin's name. He is just an unknown soldier, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

Although Yu Jin is capable, he is a newcomer to Cao Cao's command after all, so his reputation is not obvious, and Zhang Fei would not specifically ask about any new people under Cao Cao's subordinates, so naturally he would not know about Yu Jin.

But since Yu Jin has already spoken his name, Zhang Fei will not ignore Yu Jin.

"I am Zhang Yide from Yan, so take my life."

Yu Jin was shocked when he heard Zhang Fei's name. Although Zhang Fei's reputation was not as famous as Guan Yu and others, he was still a fierce general, and when he was imprisoned in Hulao, Cao Cao had seen Zhang Fei's martial arts with his own eyes. .In Cao Cao's eyes, although Zhang Fei's martial arts skills are not as good as Na Dian Wei, Guan Yu and others, he is still a peerless fighter.

After knowing that Liu Bei and Kong Rong had led troops to rescue Xuzhou, Cao Cao asked his generals to pay attention to Zhang Fei and Guan Yu.As for Cao Cao's subordinates, although there are many first-class fierce generals, none of them can match Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.And Cao Cao attaches so much importance to it, the generals under his command naturally have some opinions.

Most of Cao Cao's subordinates had seen the martial arts of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu in the Hulao Pass, but there were only a few people such as Yu Jin and Bian Xiang who had not seen it.

After hearing Cao Cao mentioning the names of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Yu Jin paid attention to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but Yu Jin didn't expect to meet Zhang Fei here.
