Chapter 27 Liu Bei’s three brothers

As soon as the two sides met, the fierce-looking man said sternly: "Where is the prince?"

No one dared to respond.

Mi Zhu smiled and said, "The prince suddenly contracted a serious illness and is now lying on the bed in a daze."

The fierce-looking man scolded: "Now Cao's army is about to attack the city, but this old immortal is lying in bed? I think he is afraid of death and is pretending on purpose! When I go to find him, I will shoot him to death!"

Saying that, he turned to leave.

No one dared to stop them.

"General Cao, this is too much." Next to the fierce-looking man, a man with surprisingly large earlobes grabbed the fierce-looking man's wrist and persuaded him, "Tao Xuzhou was an important minister of the imperial court. He once accompanied the left-cavalry general Huangfu Song to fight against the North. Gong Boyu later followed Zhang Wen to conquer Han Sui and Bian Zhang, and then defeated the Xuzhou Yellow Turbans. Later, the court recognized his outstanding achievements and appointed him as Xuzhou Mu."

"He also came from the wind and went from the rain. How can someone who is used to seeing fighting scenes be afraid of Cao Cao?"

"I believe he is really suffering from a serious disease."

"Now, instead of bothering him, we should quickly find a way to deal with Cao Cao."

The fierce-looking man threw away the opponent's hand and cursed loudly: "Get out! You Liu Bei, do you want to be a good person? You are not my official in Xuzhou! If Xuzhou is gone, you will probably escape to Youzhou. Of course you are not in a hurry!"

Lu Yi stood behind Mi Zhu and watched this scene quietly.

This fierce-looking man's surname is Cao?

And, so domineering.

According to the historical records obtained before traveling through time, this should be Cao Bao, the number one general in Xuzhou during the Tao Qian period.

The Cao family where Cao Bao belongs is also a well-known noble family in Xuzhou.

As for Liu Bei, he is indeed a knight-errant.

At this juncture, no one dared to disobey Cao Bao, and he, an outsider, dared to stand up!

According to historical records, Liu Bei was a hero when he was young.

When he was studying with Gongsun Zan under Zhonglang General Lu Zhi, he didn't like to write or write.

When others are studying, he likes to fight with crickets.

He also likes to wear luxurious clothes and has a bad temper.

After the Yellow Turbans were pacified, the imperial court appointed him as the county captain of Anxi County. He did not serve for long, but the imperial court wanted to select officials to save money. At that time, the imperial court sent a postal officer to find him and wanted to dismiss him.

At that time, the governor was still resting at the post station.

After Liu Bei found out, he went to the governor to find out.

The governor was a timid man. He was in someone else's territory, and it happened to be night when Liu Bei found him.

The governor was afraid that Liu Bei would mess with him, so he pretended to be ill and disappeared.

In anger, Liu Bei whipped the governor and fled with his men.

Thinking about it now, Liu Bei's actions were not too much.

He had done so much to pacify the Yellow Turbans, so he could only be a county captain, and he accepted it!

As a result, the county captain's position was not yet in high demand, and the court wanted to save money and dismiss him!
In other words, he achieved nothing in the end despite his illustrious military exploits?

Under such circumstances, it would not be too much for him to ask the governor for an explanation.

The supervisor didn't even meet him and told lies to his face.

If you were yourself, you might do the same.

However, no matter how many shortcomings there are, what Liu Bei has shown now still makes Lu Yi feel extremely comfortable.

Liu Bei frowned slightly when he heard what Cao Bao said.

Just as he was about to speak, a loud shout rang out: "Looking for death! My brother is trying to persuade me so nicely, but you are using the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman?"

But a big man with a leopard head and ringed eyes rushed up with a spear.

Cao Bao was immediately startled and was about to retreat.

Lu Yi nodded secretly.

This look should be Zhang Fei!
And the person next to him with heavy dates is undoubtedly Guan Yu!
This is easy to recognize.

But, who is this thin young man next to Guan Yu?
He really couldn't guess it all at once!
Zhang Fei had not even taken two steps out when he was held down by Guan Yu and the young man on one shoulder.

Guan Yu scolded: "Yide, don't mess around!"

This is Xuzhou!
All around were talkative people from various families in Xuzhou.

If a fight really breaks out, the talking heads from different families will definitely stand together.

My group was obviously here to help.

If we were besieged, we would have nowhere to find anyone to reason with!
The young man also said: "Third brother, don't be ridiculous!"

Zhang Fei was about to shake off the hands of Guan Yu and the young man on his shoulders, but he saw a figure coming out and said with a smile: "We are all members of our own family, why should we be angry? Besides, General Cao, Liu Yuzhou, you don't need to in a hurry."

"Although Mr. Fu is bedridden, we have reinforcements arriving. Although the number is not large, it can still last for a while."

"Other places, such as Guangling, are also urgently deploying troops to help."

It’s Chen Deng!
When Liu Bei saw Chen Deng coming out to smooth things over, he took half a step back and stayed away from Cao Bao.

Cao Bao snorted heavily, looked at Chen Deng and said, "Where are the reinforcements?"

Chen Deng looked at Lu Yi.

Mi Zhu hurriedly got out of the way.

Lu Yi, Nangong Yan, Xu Shu, and Xu Sheng walked up.

Lu Yi clasped his fists towards Cao Bao and Liu Bei and said, "Sima Lu Yi of the Lujiang Department has met General Cao! Yuzhou Mu!" Cao Bao looked at Lu Yi, a young man who looked like a weak man at first glance, stretched out his hand and said, "You... It looks like you’ve never been on the battlefield, so don’t cry in fear! Bring me the tiger talisman. Only when the reinforcements are in my hands can I show my strength!"

Lu Yi shook his head and said: "Sorry, when I came, our Lujiang Governor entrusted me with this support army and asked me to transfer orders!"

"General Cao is a fierce general at first glance, which is admirable! However, I have not seen General Cao's battles and do not understand your abilities. Therefore, please forgive me for not handing over the military power."

Cao Bao narrowed his eyes, his face filled with murderous intent.

Mi Zhu and others also looked over.

Especially Mi Zhu and Chen Deng, both of them had a little surprise on their faces.

This young man was ordered to lead an army to help. If he didn't hand over the military power to Cao Bao, then who would he give it to?

Should it be handed over to Xuzhou Mu?

The problem is that Xuzhou Mu can't command the battle now!

When Nangong Yan and Xu Shu saw this, they stepped forward quickly, one on the left and the other on the right guarding Lu Yi's surroundings.

Lu Yi faced countless pairs of eyes and exhaled.

He originally did not want to hand over military power.

However, under the current situation, it will be too difficult if we do not hand over military power.

Liu Bei and Cao Bao were defeated by Cao Cao.

Tancheng no longer has many troops.

If Tancheng wants to protect itself, it must use troops.

From the current point of view, the only thing I can do is support the troops I have.

The key problem is that he doesn't know how to fight.

Xu Shu in the original history was a very outstanding commander.

The problem is that he is still just an assassin now and has not grown to that point yet.

Lu Yi's eyes fell on Liu Bei.

At present, the power can only be handed over to Liu Bei.

Let Liu Bei take command first and survive Cao Cao's wave of troops approaching the city.

Compared with Cao Bao and other local nobles in Xuzhou, Liu Bei was an outsider, so it did not violate Lu Kang's original intention.

Of course, the most critical issue is that Liu Bei, as Cao Bao said just now, has no roots in Xuzhou. At this time, even if he controls military power, he will not pose a threat to the major families in Xuzhou.

Talkers from the major families in Xuzhou should agree to let Liu Bei temporarily take on the important task of protecting Tancheng.

As for Cao Bao's suggestion that Liu Bei could escape and return to Youzhou, it was really senseless.

People probably won't believe what other major families say.

If Liu Bei was really like this, why would he have to face the difficulties and wade through this muddy water to offend Cao Cao?

At this time, the relationship between Liu Bei and Cao Cao was still quite good, but there was no hatred.

Thinking of this, Lu Yi looked at Liu Bei and said, "Liu Yuzhou, I heard that you made great achievements in putting down the Yellow Turban Rebellion. I believe in your ability."

He took out the box from his sleeve, opened it, took out the tiger talisman, separated it in half, put the other half into the box, and handed it to Nangong Yan beside him. The other half was offered with both hands and handed to Liu Bei, saying: "I am willing to give this support to you." I leave the troops to your command!"

Cao Bao was furious.

He is the number one general in Xuzhou!

This kid from Lujiang actually chose to believe in Liu Bei instead of himself.

Is there any reason for this?

Just as he was about to snatch the tiger talisman from Lu Yi's hand, this time, he saw Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and the young man standing up behind Liu Bei, standing in front of Cao Bao and Lu Yi.

Cao Bao looked at the murderous faces of the three men and suddenly became frightened.

However, he still couldn't let go of his dignity and held up his spear as if he was about to take action.

Chen Deng and Mi Zhu looked at each other and nodded.

Mi Zhu hurriedly stepped forward and said to Cao Bao with a smile: "General Cao, why are you angry? Although the reinforcements are led by Liu Yuzhou, there are still some defense troops in the city who also need your command! Now that Cao's army is attacking, this is not the time for civil strife!"

Chen Deng also came up and said: "General Cao, Liu Yuzhou and Lu Shijun are all here to protect Tancheng. Everyone is watching! Moreover, no matter who leads the reinforcements, in the end, General Cao will be our number one general in Xuzhou. We have to rely on you to defend Tancheng."

Talkers from other major families agreed.

Cao Bao glared at Lu Yi fiercely, walked past him and entered the government office.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Mi Zhu and Chen Deng persuaded Liu Bei to take half of the tiger talisman from Lu Yi's hand.

Liu Bei then took the tiger talisman, saluted Lu Yi solemnly and said: "Lu Shijun's trust, I, Liu Bei, will be completely ruined!"

Mi Zhu smiled and said: "Then let's go into the government office together and let's discuss how to deal with Cao's army's attack next!"

Liu Bei responded and made a gesture of invitation to Lu Yi.

While Lu Yi followed Liu Bei into the government office, he looked at the young man behind him and asked Liu Bei: "Liu Yuzhou, these three people are-"

Liu Bei looked back and said with a smile: "They? They are my Liu Bei's brothers, my beloved relatives and friends. They have followed me all the way to pacify the Yellow Turbans."

Zhang Fei patted his chest and said, "I am Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide from Yan!"

When Guan Yu saw Lu Yi looking over, he clasped his fists and said, "Guan Yu, the good man!"

The young man saluted Lu Yi and said, "I am from Yuyang, Tian Yu."
