"Report!"

The messenger shouted, awakening Huangfu Song, who was writing hard on the desk, who was writing quickly. Huangfu Song put down his brush and raised his head: "What should I report?"

"Master!" The soldiers in the news agency held a white silk and a sharp arrow in their hands. They quickly stepped forward from the door and handed the white silk to Huangfu Song and said, "When the scouts of the sound camp patrol came to Xihua City, someone on the upper floor shot an arrow at him, and a white silk tied to the arrow. Please check it out."

Huangfu Song took the white silk and spread it out at a glance, laughed and said, "Haha, it turns out that there is an umbrella coming, and I am sleepy and sending a pillow. I ordered the entire army to raise the tent at three o'clock in the hour of Hai, so there must be no mistakes!"

A sound of ox horns sounded, and Zhu Jun, Cao Cao, Wang Li and other soldiers came in one after another in military uniforms.

Huangfu Song had already stood in the tent with a long sword in his hand. Seeing the generals gathered, he said, "I was waiting for the supplies, food and grass to arrive in two days, and then led his army to capture Xihua. But God felt sorry for him. Now, Peng Tuo's general Xu Lu, Zhou Cang led his team to surrender, and he was about to be an internal supporter. At midnight tonight, the two of them will open the west gate, and the torches on the top of the city will be shaken as a horn!

The opportunity must not be missed, and the time will not come again, so I decided to act immediately tonight, and be sure to see the flags of my great man flying over Xihua at tomorrow!"

"No!" the generals shouted in unison.

Huangfu Song glanced at the generals and said loudly: "Order: Infantry Battalion, Changshui Battalion, Yueqi Battalion, military ranks and horses were removed from the bells. When he saw the signal on the city, he quickly seized the West Gate, and there must be no mistakes!"

"promise!"

"Order: the cavalry commander Cao Cao's unit, the central army Fu Xie's unit, and the cavalry's Jihong unit. You wait for the infantry, Changshui and Yue cavalry's third battalion to control the city gate, and quickly enter the city to encircle Peng Tuo. Do not let him escape! If any incident occurs at the city gate, quickly rush to rescue the infantry's third battalion to seize the city gate!"

"promise!"

"Order: The three river battalions will take charge of the central army with our commander and Gong Wei, and enter the city with the army! Wang Li's troops in the Shooting Camp led their troops to ambush outside the city of horses, but there are thieves who escaped and scattered. They must be arrested one by one!"

"promise!"

The night on the plain is quiet, and there is no other sound except for the occasional frog cries. It is pitch black everywhere and you can't see your fingers. It is not until midnight that a few ignited torches swaying back and forth at the head of Xihua City that awakens the sleeping night.

"action!"

The infantry captain waved his hand gently, and the soldiers of the third battalion of Yue cavalry crossed the war horses and rushed into the city gate with sharp weapons, as if they were like the elves of the dark night, quickly and silently.

...

Fire brings warmth and light to people.

However, Peng Tuo never expected that the fire brought him endless disasters. I don’t know if the fire was just like his mood when the fire was just below Changshe City.

Several small torches were so small and insignificant, but they completely ruined their ambitions and the lives of 40,000 men in Xihua.

Looking at the three or five thousand people under his command, Peng Tuo lies tightly on the horse's back and hearts are dripping like blood. He opens his mouth and pants heavily, allowing the cold air to pour into his lungs, bursts of burning stinging pain.

"Ship Qu! The sound of horse hooves is no longer heard, let the brothers take a break!"

He pulled up his ears and listened again and found that there was peace behind him. Peng Tuo nodded weakly, stepped off his horse, sat blankly on the ground, punched the grass, and endless regret poured into his mind.

This surprise attack came too suddenly, like a spring dream without trace. Unfortunately, this dream was definitely not a spring dream, but a terrifying nightmare! The entire 40,000 army completely became the prisoner of the Han Dynasty overnight!

This damn Xu Maocai! A villain who has kindness and revenge! Fortunately, I trust you so much and have given you the important task of defending the city. If it weren't for your deceased eight-year-old thief who recognized the thief as his father, why would I be like this? Why would I be like this?

And that damn Wang Li, did I kill your wife or steal your wife in my previous life? I have been chasing me hard, which almost made me die!

Grit your teeth and cut your teeth

Looking at the dark woods behind him, a sudden sound of horse hooves sounded in the forest, like thunder rolling. Peng Tuo couldn't help but hit a chill, flew on the horse, and shouted tremblingly, "Go!" and ran out first.

I don’t know how far he ran and what territory he ran to, but Peng Tuo only knew that he had been running for three hours. From Chou Shi to Chen Shi, the sky was almost dawn, his chest was about to explode, and his head was confused. Peng Tuo took a moment of breath and grabbed the guard beside him and asked, “I still care about my head?”

"Here! Of course!"

A loud and clear voice came from the end of the road: "I just don't know if you can still stay in the next moment?"

Peng took off his eyes and looked at the end of the road incredibly, one man, one horse, one sword and one bow: "Wang Li?!"

"Congratulations, you answered correctly!"

Wang Li pursed his lips sarcastically, and a sharp arrow broke through the air and hit Peng withdrew his neck. Blood flowers flew wildly, and his consciousness gradually dissipated.

Damn God, I finally stopped running!

...

Peng Tuo finally stopped running, but Liu Bei was still running on the road.

The first time he took charge of the army gave him endless strength, Peng Tuo felt almost exhausted after a few hours, and Liu Bei ran away for a few days and still felt unfulfilled.

Liu Bei's ancestor was personally appointed by Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Zhen, the Marquis of Zhuoluting. Because he lost his marquis, his family lost his fortune. By the time of his father Liu Hong, he only appointed Xiaolian as a minor official in the county. Later, Hong died early, and Liu Bei and his mother depended on each other for their lives, and sold shoes and weaving mats to make a living. The family was so poor that he was so poor that his uncle Liu Yuanqi often helped him, so he did not wander around in the world.

Bei has always had great ambitions since he was a child, and he specialized in making friends with ambitions in the world. He also worked with Zheng Xuan and Lu Zhi and was friends with Gongsun Zan, but he was still wandering in the rivers and seas. He has never been in charge of a battalion of soldiers and horses alone? He is still able to get 1,500 soldiers and horses, and the troops are rippling and fierce. Fang Jue's lifelong ambitions are beginning to show signs today. He is full of confidence and spirit, so how can he feel tired?

Seeing that he was about to enter the territory of Guangping County, he suddenly heard a scout in front of him report: "Report to the general, for some reason, General Lu Zhonglang, the general of the army and horses of the headquarters, was captured by the imperial army and horses, and is now heading towards our army!"

Liu Bei was shocked and looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, raised his horse whip and shouted loudly, and the three of them rushed out.

I saw a sill car parked in the road, and the soldiers on both sides were all dressed in red and silver armor, pressing their hands on their waists, and their eyes were cold. A person was kneeling high in the sill car, with long hair scattered and haggard faces, and a gray-white prison clothes were dazzling.

"Teacher!"

Seeing this, Liu Bei jumped off the horse quickly, rolled and crawled to the front of the sill car, holding the hands that were on the fence of the sill car with one hand, and the veins were rising straight, leaving only a layer of skin and bones. Liu Bei burst into tears and rained: "Mr., what happened? Why is this?"

"Is it Xuande? It's okay, what else can I do if I, Lu Zi?"

"Teacher!"

"Okay, I'll talk to you!" Lu Zhi raised his head and gently tidied his hair with his hands. Looking at Liu Bei's eyes full of knowledge, he sighed, "Our army was ordered to go north, and first defeated the moth thief in Julu, and then surrounded Zhangjiao in Guangzong. After more than a month of stalemate, he couldn't go down. The court sent the Huangmen Zuo Feng to inspect the army, and the man was very despicable. He first investigated the omissions in our army many times. Seeing that Zhi had no movement, he directly asked for bribes, but was rejected by Zhi, which caused this storm."

Liu Bei's eyebrows stood up when he heard this: "Why should my teacher cover up the eunuchs? The storm? This is a storm! Nowadays, most people in this court are to be close to others, and to be close to others, and to be close to each other, and to be close to each other, the teacher must be the one who falls into this situation. The thief Zuo Feng is holding a grudge for his bribes and is determined to frame his mentor!"

Lu Zhi looked at Liu Bei with a joking smile and said, "If you see through or not, you are still a good friend! Everyone knows some things, why do you have to say them out?"

"Teacher!"

Lu Zhi patted Liu Bei's hand and sighed, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes: "I think my family of the Lu clan in Fanyang is loyal to the country, and have you ever made friends with eunuchs? Moreover, the use of troops on the battlefield depends on the soldiers' orders to fight bravely. All the money and property in the army is used by the soldiers of the three armies. How can we pay money and property in the army be paid to the soldiers of the three armies?

The eunuch? Zuo Feng failed to ask for bribes and slandered His Majesty and advised His Majesty that "the thieves of Guangzong are easily defeated. Lu Zhonglang is in a position to restore his army to the heavenly punishment." His Majesty is not clear, so he sent the Yulin army to engrave it into the capital, reducing his death penalty by a higher level (equivalent to life imprisonment).

Forget it, what's the use of saying this now? Don't be burdened by things, and be sad and happy with things. This time I just treat it as a training of my qualities."

Liu Bei held Lu Zhi's hand tightly and choked out his sobs: "My teacher, please be relieved, don't be discouraged. The teacher will do his best for the country, and will be calm and upright in the past. Although there are twists and turns in this journey, the aspiring people in the court will not dare to forget it for a moment, and they will definitely save it with all their strength."

Seeing Lu Zhi nodding with a bitter smile, Liu Bei continued to say, "It is a taboo for changing commanders in front of the formation. Now that his mentor has stepped down from the Northern Army, he doesn't know who is the one who is replaced?"

A sarcastic smile appeared on Lu Zhi's face, and then looked up at the soldiers in the distance, with a hint of pity flashing in his eyes: "The new General of the Northern Army is the former prefect of Hedong, and Dong Zhuo is the same! This person has always been arrogant and unkind, endured and had little righteousness, and had courage but no strategy. This time, Guangzong will be defeated. Xuande, Zhi cannot bear the loss of all the men under his command. Zhi and Gong Wei are honest. If you don't mind, you will be defeated by the soldiers."

Liu Bei was about to answer, but seeing that the soldiers on both sides had already rushed up, a captain stepped forward to bow to Lu Zhi and said, "General, we are going to Luoyang with high mountains and high waters, and the road is dangerous and the road is dangerous. Please ask the general to get on the road earlier!"

Lu Zhi sighed and bowed to Liu Bei, but he didn't want to shock the black man beside him. The man was angry and pulled the lieutenant and punched him: "Lu Zhonglang was a man of great achievements in his own destiny and had the style of an ancient gentleman. The court did not use it, but instead used all the dirty people like you. What should you urge? Take your Master Zhang San's punch!"

"stop!"

Lu Zhi stopped shouting, and Liu Bei hurriedly hugged Zhang Fei with both hands and said, "What crime is the lieutenant doing? The matter of mentors will be subject to public opinion. How can you let this be done here?"

The captain looked at Zhang Fei fiercely, turned his head and bowed to Liu Bei. With a wave of his hand, the soldiers stepped forward and surrounded Lu Zhi and gradually left.

Looking at Lu Zhi's figure leaving, Liu Bei felt the cold wind and cold, and his passion was wet by the sudden cold rain. Most of the upright people either disappeared or were dismissed from office or were jailed. Even his benefactor Lu Zigan, a famous minister like his benefactor, could be dismissed from office and imprisoned by just a few slanderings of eunuchs. Do you still have to go to the point of being controlled by those villains?

Under Yangdi City, there is a desperate journey for the thief and the talented people, but outside Guangzong City, Lu Zhi's dead end. It is indeed difficult to get along with the mountains and fields.

"Brother, now General Lu Zhonglang is dismissed from office and we will have no support when we go. It is better to lead our troops south to surrender to General Zhu Jun, or go north to Zhuo County and return to his hometown and rely on the prefect Liu Yan. You see, it's fine!"

A thunder woke Liu Bei up in contemplation. He raised his head and saw Yun Chang's phoenix eyes commenting on himself with concern. Liu Bei came to his senses in shock. Jade could not be made into a weapon without being carved. I am the hero of the prince of Zhongshan. Now I have a small setback and have begun to feel depressed. How can I realize my great ambition in my life?

In an instant, the gloom on his face disappeared. Liu Bei looked at Guan and Zhang and pondered: "Birds of a feather flock together. The mentor is upright and selfless. When General Zhu Zhonglang received praise from his mentor, he must be a straightforward and upright person. If we go and vote, we will be highly valued. But..."

"But what?"

Liu Bei smiled and a smile flashed in his eyes: "But now that the dynasty is in corruption, the eunuchs are engaging in power, and since the mentor can be dismissed by the court, how can General Zhu Zhonglang be alone?

In the past, Zhang Mengtan said: I never forget my previous life, and I am the teacher of the next life. Now, you and my brother have thousands of troops in their hands. Why do you have to force yourself to hit the treacherous man? My foolish brother is better to lead troops to Zhuo County first and then make plans! What do you think?"

"Okay, my brothers and I swear to follow my brother to the death!" Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and his wife looked at Liu Bei and nodded firmly.

The three of them stood side by side in the valley, letting the sunlight bathe in the breeze blow. The sunlight and breeze were like a universal key, blowing away the haze in their hearts and opening the hearts of the three.
