Three Kingdoms: The opening incorporates Li Cunxiao

Chapter 220 Liu Bei borrows someone
  "Second brother, he is the champion."

"The Champion?" Mi Fang looked at Zhang Wu suspiciously.

That's it, the guy with thin arms and thin legs said: "It doesn't look like it, it doesn't look like it! Yaomei, you won't be deceived by this scumbag, will you? I heard that the champion Hou Qingzhi never leaves his sword."

Zhang Wu laughed awkwardly. He didn't like using swords in the first place, and the green sword hanging on his body was almost like a decoration.

But he didn't expect that as soon as he used Qingzhi to win over Pang Tong, someone would show off his back foot.

Zhang Wu was also helpless.

He can't just put his name on his face and show off.

Mi Zhen did not doubt it. A woman's intuition told her that the person who dared to climb the wall of her house was Zhang Wu.

To put it bluntly, according to the current status of the Mi family in Xuzhou, if any blind person dares to impersonate Zhang Wu and climb his own wall, there is no difference between him and seeking death.

"Second brother, he is really a champion, don't be rude."

Zhang Wu was speechless when he saw that Mi Fang still didn't believe it.

This kid is a little stunned.

He whispered something offended to Mi Zhen, and then smashed the stone table in front of him.

Mi Zhen: "..."

The difference between what I heard and what I saw with my own eyes was huge.

Everyone in the world knows that Zhang Wu is brave, but there are so many brave people. Listening to them one by one, who can tell what true bravery looks like.

Even Mi Fang's half-baked martial arts training was enough to defeat Cao Bao, the former Xiapi city guard general. He still felt that he was brave.

After this moment, he was really convinced.

That half-foot-thick stone table was smashed into pieces?
  Those who perform tricks on the street don't dare to play like this.

Putting aside the level of trespassing into Mi Mansion, Zhang Wu is Mi Fang's idol.

Naturally, he came up again and asked for warmth.

Zhang Wu was unable to avoid the banquet that he originally wanted to avoid. The news of the champion's visit to Mi Mansion quickly spread throughout the streets. Even Mi Zhu temporarily put aside his work and hurried back to his home.

After a banquet, the two brothers were drunk until they were both unconscious.

.........

Thirty miles east of Shouchun, there is a small county called Qiutou.

Zhang Fei rushed into the county magistrate's office in a hurry and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Brother, Shouchun has sent out another 30,000 troops to march eastward to Xuzhou. The city must be empty at this moment. Give the order! Capture Shouchun and take away Yuan Shu." From now on, the land of Huainan will be in the palm of my hand, wouldn’t it be a pleasure?”

Being used to wandering, Zhang Fei has developed an almost crazy paranoia about a place that belongs to his third brother.

How could he not be tempted by the opportunity before him?

Liu Bei looked like he had lost his soul. He just glanced at Zhang Fei and then lowered his head again.

Thinking back to how complacent he was when he first came out of Xuchang, he felt that when the dragon returned to the sea, it would soar to the sky.

Previously, he thought that Yuan Shu was just an ordinary person, short-sighted and weak in military affairs. In addition, Yuan Shu lost nearly 50,000 soldiers and horses in Xuzhou, general Ji Ling was killed by Xu Chu, and general Zhang Xun was captured by Zhang Wu and surrendered to Cao Cao.

With Guan Zhang at his side, accompanied by Sun Qian and Jian Yong, he was well-equipped in civil and military affairs. With the five thousand soldiers obtained by Xuchang, it would not be easy to destroy Yuan Shu.

But after a few battles, Liu Bei felt that this was not the case at all.

Five thousand soldiers were lost by two thousand. If Yuan Shu had not been arrogant and never noticed him from beginning to end, and was just playing with him, let alone conquering Shouchun, he would not even be able to survive until now. It's all a problem.

They are full of ambition, but they rely on being looked down upon by others to survive.

The huge gap between before and after has made Liu Bei somewhat doubtful about life.

Previously, Liu Bei attributed his lack of ambition to the fact that he had no advisers. After acquiring Sun and Jian, he felt that Sun Qian and Jian Yong were excellent in conversation and strategy, and would definitely help him succeed.

But when the matter came to an end, they realized that Sun Qian and Jian Yong's abilities were all in their words. They were more than enough to be envoys, but it was simply difficult for them to make plans.

Not to mention marching and setting up formations, even when they asked about practical solutions, the two of them looked submissive and couldn't figure out the reason for a long time.

Liu Bei was shocked to realize that just relying on these people to build a family business was just wishful thinking.

It is true that what he lacks is a counselor, but he is like Xun Yu, who can enter the battlefield to order troops, retreat to guard the center, make arrangements in times of crisis, and has the world's top planners.

These two people can be the icing on the cake, but they are not qualified to provide help in times of need.

Liu Bei was already jealous of Cao Cao.

During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it was clear that the two were not far apart. I never expected that I would go back and serve as a Plain Order for a few years, and when I came back, the other party would have changed.

There are Zhang Wu and Lu Bu who are famous all over the world, and there are many others like Guan Zhang who are enemies of ten thousand people.

There are two authors: Xun, Guo, Jia and Cheng. Even if someone just gives a small order, he is still an amazingly talented person.

Apart from other things, if Zhang Wu stood under his tent and stood in front of Shouchun City, he would probably scare the Yuan soldiers at the head of the city into losing their will to fight. That is a peerless warrior who can fight fifty thousand men against one man.

Thinking of his sadness, Liu Bei held the crumpled emperor's edict in his hand and cried out sadly: "How blessed is God!"

"Brother, I'm asking you whether to join the army or not. Why does it involve Cao Cao?"

"Shouchun City is high and our army's ladders cannot reach the top of the city. How can we attack the city?"

How did Zhang Fei know about this? He could only scratch his head: "Then let people build a new ladder?"

"That's all. When I finish the letter, Gongyou will take the letter and go to Youbeiping to find Bogui's place and borrow some soldiers and horses. It is best to say that he will send Zhao Yun to help. Xianhe will go to Runan County to meet with Hua Xiongdaoming. The reason is, it would be best if we can mobilize some craftsmen who are skilled in siege equipment to attract troops and horses to come to our aid."

Guan Yu frowned and said, "I should ask Hua Xiong to borrow some soldiers, horses and equipment, but the war between You and Ji in the north has begun. It's okay not to help because of the friendship between eldest brother and General Baima. How can I borrow people at this time?"

Liu Bei's nose was sore and his tears were like beads: "Bogui is good at fighting, how could he be defeated by Yuan Shao just because of the gains and losses of one general and one army? On the contrary, I am trapped in such a small county with no hope of revival. Even if I die, what will I do?" Go down and meet your ancestors with dignity!"

Seeing Liu Bei crying bitterly, the hall was full of people, and he did not dare to persuade him any more.

When things come to a close, how can Liu Bei care about the life and death of others.

If Cao Cao cannot capture Shouchun before he captures Xuzhou, and then Cao Cao takes advantage of the situation to capture Huainan, even if he is ordered to garrison at that time, he will nominally become Cao's eagle dog. How can a person who surrenders himself to be a thief use his righteousness? Based on troubled times?
