[Three Kingdoms] Carnival

Cao Jun's letter was posted on the wall of Pengcheng, and everyone was in an uproar.

Although staying in the city is death, at least there is still some possibility of survival, but if Cao Jun breaks through the city and massacres the city, it will be a situation of death.When Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou to avenge his father, he also gave the order to massacre the city. Although it was not carried out in the end, it was widely known to the common people. I believe it is true.

As a result, the people who made troubles to go out of the city stopped, and the people who planned to join forces with Cao Jun also disappeared. Instead, the people began to listen to Gao Shun's orders seriously, especially after Gao Shun promised in front of the people for five days. Seeing Cao Jun's medicinal materials came back, his confidence increased greatly, he worked hard and never resisted.

No one wants to die, so even if there is a glimmer of hope, they have to struggle to survive.

The gold fell to the west, and the people who were not sick and the soldiers moved the last heavy objects to the bottom of the tower, and then scattered and left.One of them wiped the sweat off his forehead, bumped into the people around him, and whispered:

"Hey, why do I feel so wrong?"

"Ah?" He wiped off his sweat with his clothes, and said impatiently, "What's wrong, I finally finished my work today, go back to sleep!"

"No, no!" Seeing that people didn't listen to him, the person in front became anxious and pulled him hard, "You said yes, why did Cao Jun massacre the city!"

"……What do you mean?"

"Also, even if Cao's army is brutal, it's obvious that the one outside Pengcheng is..." He was taken aback by soldiers patrolling past him, and pulled them aside before whispering,

"I heard that the one leading the troops outside now is Duke Xuande! How could he want to massacre the city!"

The other person was taken aback for a moment, but he also immediately realized something.

Liu Bei has not been a state shepherd in Xuzhou for a long time, but he puts the people first in everything he does, loves the people like a son, and is deeply loved by the people.He would even rather starve himself than let no one in the city be deprived of food. Whenever there is something in the city, he will help him.One person doing this every day can be seen as a show, but Liu Bei is doing this every day without any affectation. There is no other possibility except true kindness and benevolence.

Therefore, they believed that Cao Jun was going to massacre the city, but they couldn't believe that Liu Bei's army was going to massacre the city, even if it was dead.

Thinking of this, the people behind couldn't help swallowing.He and the person next to him looked at each other, and in each other's eyes, they saw a few traces of joy and fear when they discovered something.The joy is naturally that the massacre may be fake, but the fear is...

The two looked at each other again, and in the end they still didn't say anything, but went home separately.

However, such speculation was not only carried out by the two of them. As time went by, more and more people felt that there was a problem with this matter. After all, Liu Bei's benevolence was something no one could doubt.Whispers spread quietly on street corners, and finally gradually became a gathering of people and a growing force.

Just right, news of Liu Bei came at this time.

He is willing to meet the people without a single soldier.

"...Massacre the city?!" When Liu Bei met the righteous men among the common people in a hidden place under the arrangement of Guo Jia, he was shocked when he heard the words, "How could we do such an outrageous thing!"

"Can……"

"That's needless to say!" Immediately, the people were angry, "Gao Shun must have lied to us! Let me just say, how could Duke Xuande have the heart to slaughter the city!"

"Then there are a lot of medicinal materials in Cao's army, but is it true?"

Liu Bei nodded: "That's true. It's just that Pengcheng is not broken now, and medicinal materials can't enter Pengcheng... It's useless to prepare. If the city can be broken as soon as possible, it will relieve the suffering of the people."

But some people are still skeptical: "You are lying to us, if the city is broken, not only will there be no medicinal materials, but..."

Immediately someone wanted to be angry at this person's rudeness. In the hearts of most people, Liu Bei is the parent official they admire, and such doubts should not be tolerated.But Liu Bei was not in a hurry, he stopped those who wanted to refute, and just swore to the righteous men who came to represent the people of Pengcheng:

"Although Bei is not a person with great talent and virtue, I would like to swear here that if what I just said is even the slightest bit false, Bei is willing to cut off his own way, die in poverty and grief, and lose his family and friends."

This oath was too vicious, but those present understood that Liu Bei made such a vicious oath to reassure them.

Just to reassure the people, just to let the people get treatment as soon as possible.

No one dares to doubt this benevolence.

After handing over the package containing the medicinal materials to the martyrs, Liu Bei watched them return to Pengcheng without any danger before turning around and leaving.In the dark place where the moonlight did not shine, Zhang Fei was waiting for him with his horse.

"Brother, you shouldn't have come."

On the way back to the camp, Zhang Fei said suddenly.

Liu Bei shook his head indifferently, and said with a gentle smile, "Although we have disagreements with Mr. Cao, at least Guo Jijiu and we stand on the same side at this time, and we should help each other. What's more, as long as we can Let the people be saved one day earlier, and everyone is willing to do it."

Zhang Fei took a deep look at the man's face softened under the moonlight, and he was speechless to answer.In fact, he had persuaded Liu Bei many times before, not to listen to Guo Jia's words, but Liu Bei couldn't let go of the people in the city. Even though he knew there might be problems, he was not afraid.

Brother, what a fool.

However, it is precisely because of this stupidity that I will follow him even if I run around.

Thinking of this, the uneasiness in Zhang Fei's heart gradually subsided.

If there is any problem, it is enough for him to clean it up.

No matter how chaotic the world is, as long as there are fools like Liu Bei, there will be a day when the clouds will be cleared.

"Oh? Liu Bei is back?" At this moment, Guo Jia was sitting leisurely in the tent looking at the bamboo slips, but he was obviously absent-minded.

"Yeah." Gan Jiu stood beside Guo Jia's case, frowned slightly at Guo Jia's lazy look, "No matter how bad your illness is, I'm afraid these 5000 people will become Liu Bei's people."

Ever since he was infected with the "plague", he obeyed the doctor's advice and rarely went out of the tent to blow the wind. Liu Bei took care of all the chores in the army. Therefore, from the perspective of outsiders, this army has nothing to do with him, Guo Jia. Liu Bei is the real commander in chief.

But that's just from outsiders' point of view, the talisman flags of the commanding army are all with him, and these 5000 people are all veterans of the Cao army, so it's not so easy to change hands.

"Isn't this good? If Liu Bei wants to take care of it, let him work harder.

Anyway, the identity of this commander is not only good-looking. "

It was slightly bright, and in Pengcheng's garrison, Gao Shun's deputy general sat up abruptly from the bed.

He had a bad dream.

The content of the dream has nothing to do with him, but with his leader.When he saw the blue shadow stained with blood, he stood up abruptly, but the bloodthirsty and cruel smile at the end was still lingering in his mind.

Wiping the cold sweat off his forehead, he got up and got off the couch.

Because he didn't sleep soundly, the jacket on his body was crumpled and left open, and some black marks were looming.

It was an extremely ugly spider that stabbed in the abdomen of a person.

Like bones attached to maggots.

He stared blankly at the mark for a long time, and suddenly his face turned serious, he pulled his jacket tighter, then put on his sleeves and armor to cover everything up.

In order to achieve the goal, someone must live in the dark.

When he hurried to the bottom of the city tower, the sound of drumming had just started.

Gao Shun's sudden attack did not give Cao Jun a chance to prepare.

On the plain, the camp that is trapped in the battle is invincible.

On the battlefield of hand-to-hand combat and gold and iron horses, this army that followed Lu Bu galloped all over the world, looking magnificent and unstoppable.

Across the thin screen, the thunderous sound of fighting could be heard like thunder.The sharp edge of the sword, blood sprayed from the neck, and slapped on the screen

A few wintersweet blooms in winter.

The tea beside him was sizzling.

"Mr. Xuande, don't stand still." Guo Jia smiled and waved to Liu Bei who was standing with a sword in his hand, "Come, pour Jia a cup of hot tea."

Liu Bei turned his head when he heard the sound, and looked at Guo Jia with a relaxed smile, his hand holding the sword was loosened and tightened, but he still didn't dare to let go.

Across the screen, there is a strong enemy on the side.

The place of death and life is nothing like this moment.

He didn't know why Guo Jia was so calm, but he couldn't put down the sword in his hand.

He had already made up his mind, once the screen fell, he would protect Guo Jia and fight out.

Seeing that people didn't intend to pour tea for him, Guo Jia could only sigh lightly, stood up slowly and walked to the stove burning tea.

As soon as I grasped the handle of the pot, something happened suddenly.A sharp sword pierced through the screen, facing Guo Jia's eyebrows.

Liu Bei raised his sword to block it almost subconsciously, while Guo Jia looked at the sharp edge close at hand, just smiled and continued to pour tea for himself.

"Don't be afraid, it's all right." Guo Jia comforted Liu Bei as he sat back down again.

Liu Bei looked at the still calm face of the man in the green shirt, and a trace of complexity flashed through his eyes.

However, the reality did not leave Liu Bei time to think, and the crisis was still imminent.Outside the screen, there were more and more enemy troops, and gradually our own soldiers could no longer stop them. The breath of blood filled the tent, and above the screen, wintersweet had already bloomed all over the mountains.

In the season of autumn, the heat of summer has not yet gone, but Liu Bei's body is already chilled, but determination is still written between his brows.

The hand holding the sword gradually tightened.

With a loud noise, the screen fell down with a bang, and Liu Bei raised his sword.

Guo Jia took a cup of warm tea.

The accident is but a moment.

Liu Bei only felt the black shadow flashing across his eyes like lightning, and after a while, all the enemies in front of him died suddenly.Only two people dressed in black knelt in front of Guo Jia, bowing their heads in salute.

Their swords were dripping with blood, but their black clothes were not stained with blood.

Just now, no one noticed their existence.

Yiwei is in the room, and octopus is in the house.

It wasn't until the moment when the fine and dense spider webs engulfed the prey that it suddenly became apparent, but it was too late.

The teacup knocked on the table and made a light sound. Guo Jia waved his hand, and the man in black disappeared in an instant.He walked up to Liu Bei who was still a little dazed, took his sword, and put the sword into the sheath for him.

"Don't be afraid, it's fine."

Gao Shun didn't come here to attack the camp, but after arriving, he found that the camp was not only defenseless, but even had less than 5000 soldiers, so he changed his plan with joy.

If the general Cao Jun can be beheaded, then all problems can be easily solved.

However, the reality is still not as beautiful as he expected.Soon, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who were leading the troops, hurried back to help. Although their soldiers were far less than the elites of the trapped camp, after all, there was a huge disparity in their strength. If they fought hard, Gao Shun might not be able to get any benefits.

When the situation changed, Gao Shun immediately ordered to restore the original plan, only to fight for the medicine instead of fighting to the death.Although the battle situation was chaotic and some soldiers did not receive instructions in time, most of them turned in time.Cao had many soldiers, but he couldn't stop the rampaging cavalry. In the end, he could only watch helplessly as the trapped camp marched away with the medicinal materials in the camp.

"Chasing!" Guo Jia gave the order immediately without any hesitation, and the three of Liu, Guan and Zhang did not dare to neglect, and led the troops to chase after them before they could take a breath.

If Gao Shun was allowed to return to the city with the medicinal materials, it would be absolutely impossible for Pengcheng to break the city again.

However, the anxious look on Guo Jia's face gradually faded away, and finally turned into a smile on the corner of his lips.

"Station Jushui." At some point, Gan Jiu walked to Guo Jia's side, and saw Guo Jia's exasperating and helpless smile again, "I said, why did you give such a boring order yesterday? To tune us out.

So what do we do now?Although I don't know what you are going to do, but it is true that if they can't catch up with Gao Shun and let him go back to the city with the medicinal materials, all the arrangements in Pengcheng will be in vain. "

"How could it be in vain?" Guo Jia shook his head, his eyes shining with a clear light, "No matter how slow they chase, these medicinal materials will not be able to enter Pengcheng."

Some people say that Guo Jiazhi seeks to get close to ghosts because he seldom talks nonsense when the two armies are confronting each other.

However, every sentence often becomes a prophecy.

Although the soldiers were lost, although they fought to the death, even though they were covered in blood, they finally grabbed the medicinal materials.Thinking of the people in the city cheering the moment they saw the medicinal materials, Gao Shun couldn't help the joy in his heart, and he couldn't even feel the pain from the sword wounds on his body anymore.

Although he puts Lu Bu's interests first in everything, it doesn't mean he has no intentions.

The people in the city were howling, and the throbbing in his heart was not completely absent.

Therefore, in fact, he could not grab the herb at all, and use soldiers to forcefully suppress it until Cao's army ran out of food.But he still went to grab these medicinal materials for himself and the common people.

The city walls of Pengcheng were already faintly visible. He concealed his fatigue, let out a loud growl, and slapped his horse sharply to speed up.The remaining soldiers in the formation behind him were also infected by the general's spirit, and they were all shaken.

It's here, it's here, it's coming!

"Quickly open the city gate!" Gao Shun shouted a mile away from the city gate.

It was quiet on the tower, and no one answered.

"Open the city gate!" Gao Shun shouted again.

A figure in sackcloth protruded from the tower, he glanced at Gao Shun, then disappeared again.After a while, more people came out and nearly filled the city tower, but they were all ordinary people wearing tattered burlap clothes.

It was a desperate attempt to grab the medicinal materials, so Gao Shun took almost all the soldiers in the city, so the people left behind were the people guarding the city, which is normal.

What was abnormal was that no matter how loudly Gao Shun yelled, those common people just looked at him condescendingly.

The city gate was tightly closed, and Pengcheng was still indestructible.

"Open the door!" Gao Shun vaguely guessed something in his heart, but still yelled unwillingly, "The general came back with the medicinal materials! The medicinal materials that can save your lives!"

"Bah! Liar!" Finally, a commoner replied.His words obviously resonated with other people, and the "liar" scolded one after another, and every word pierced Gao Shun's ears.

"Don't try to lie to us! Mr. Xuande has already said that the massacre of the city is a fake! You just want us to sacrifice our lives for you! Bah! Good idea!"

"brute!"

"It's not as good as a pig or a dog!"

"Get out! Pengcheng won't let you in!"

With every single word, Gao Shunxin fell into the cold cellar.

Liu Bei said?Damn, how did they meet Liu Bei!

But Gao Shun still didn't give up, and he shouted again: "I have medicinal materials here! Medicinal materials that can save your lives!"

As soon as the scolding stopped, the people looked at each other and whispered.

Suddenly, one person came to his senses: "Bah! This guy is trying to lie to us again!"

"Yes! I was almost cheated by him again!"

"Liar! Liar!"

The public grievances that have been instigated cannot be suppressed no matter what.

Even if what Gao Shun said was the truth, no one would believe it.

"General! Liu Bei's army is catching up!" The lieutenant, who had been following Gao Shun and desperately protecting him, had been paying attention to the situation behind them.Seeing soldiers chasing from a distance, he quickly reminded Gao Shundao.

"..."

Gao Shun remained silent, clenched his fists tightly, and his wrists were violently spasmodic.

"General! It's too late! Make a decision quickly! Marquis Wen is still waiting for us!"

"The whole army obeys orders!" Gao Shun was awakened by the words of the lieutenant general, and he immediately replaced the hesitation with determination, "Follow me to Xiapi to help Marquis Wen!"

This meant giving up on Pengcheng and fleeing, but they had no choice in the face of Pengcheng who could not open the city gate.

The people on the tower saw Gao Shun lead the troops away, and saw another army approaching from far away.When they saw that the leader was Liu Bei, the cheers shook the sky and the earth.

The city gate opened immediately.

In the end, the common people scolded and drove away Gao Shun, who brought the medicinal materials that could save them, and happily welcomed Liu Bei, who had only the name of benevolence.

Fortunately, I am very happy.
