Major General's Journey through the Three Kingdoms

Yan Liang and Wen Chou knew that people have their own ambitions, so they voted for Shao, and Shao worshiped him as the captain of the left and right cavalry.In a few days, Xia Houlan asked for leave and returned home.Xia Houqing was very excited when he saw his son come back.So that night, Zhao Yun and others were invited to celebrate.Xia Houlan was also very happy for Li Yunpeng when he knew that he had become Zhao Yuan's adopted son.After all, they hadn't seen each other for several years.Seeing it now, it seems that there is a lot to talk about.Friendship is worth ten years.

After the banquet, Xiahou Land said that he would go back tomorrow.Zhao Yun was very reluctant.

Xia Houlan said: "General Gongsun is currently recruiting troops, and it seems that he wants to fight against Liu Yu."

Yun said: "They originally guarded the north together, why the opposite?"

Lan said: "General Gongsun advocates suppressing and fighting back against the Xiongnu and other minorities, while Liu Yu advocates the implementation of a soft policy. The conflict between the two has intensified and seems to be on the verge of breaking out."

"Two tigers fighting each other, why bother?" Zhao Yun knew that the two of them were fighting openly and secretly, and it was Yuan Shao who benefited in the end.

Xia Houlan said again: "Brother Zilong, why don't you follow me to General Gongsun, he has been coveting you for a long time!"

Zhao Yun knew that his words went too far.So I refused.

However, Xia Houlan begged again and again, hoping that he could go with her to join Gongsun Zan.Zhao Yun thought about it for a while: the world is about to be in chaos, and now he can take the opportunity to go out, and besides, Brother Xiahou's kind invitation, he can't refuse it again and again.So he promised him to go with him, but he knew that he was not going to seek refuge with Gongsun Zan, but to help Xia Houlan.The three talked until late at night.

The next day, Zhao Yun resigned from his father, and then took his fifty personal guards and followed Xiahou Lan Yangma away.

A few days later, they arrived at Gongsun Zan's tent.Gongsun Zan heard that Xia Houlan came with dozens of horsemen.So I went to meet them.When he saw Zhao Yun for the first time, he felt very familiar, but he didn't know where he had seen it.Zhao Yun is now in white helmet and silver armor, full of vigor and high spirits, not what he used to be.How could Gongsun Zan recognize it?

Zhao Yun saw that Gongsun Zan did not pay homage, but stood aside.Gongsun Zan seemed very unhappy.

Xia Houlan then introduced: "His name is Zhao Yun, he is a well-known strong man in Changshan County, and he followed me specially to take refuge in you!"

Seeing that Zhao Yun was so ignorant of current affairs, Gongsun Zan wanted to send them away.But for Xia Houlan's sake, he still appointed Zhao Yun as the captain of the cavalry, and then let them retreat.

A few days later, Xia Houlan suddenly came to Zhao Yun and said that General Gongsun had something to discuss with him.

Zhao Yun put on his armor and went to Gongsun Zan's tent.I saw that there was another person inside at this time.After Zhao Yun entered, he bowed his hands and said, "I don't know why the general is looking for the last general?"

"Oh, you're here, I want you to introduce someone, this is General Tian Kaitian!" As he spoke, he praised General Tian for his bravery and outstanding military exploits.Then he introduced to Tian Kai: "This is the new Zhao Yun, I hope you will teach him more in the future."

Then the three of them entered the formal topic.It turned out that Pingyuan Ling Liu was besieged by Bian Xi, the remnant of the Yellow Turban, and his situation was very critical.Liu Bei made people believe in asking Gongsun Zan for help.Zan had a close friendship with him, so he decided to ask General Tian to lead an army of [-] to rescue him.And Zhao Yun is responsible for escorting grain and grass.Zhao Yun took the order and left.

As the saying goes, "Soldiers and horses go first before using food and grass."Zhao Yun led his fifty personal guards and 1000 soldiers and horses, escorting food, grass and baggage to the south.Due to the urgency of the situation, he accelerated his march.And General Tian Kai followed with 2 people in a mighty manner.

Two days later, Zhao Yun entered Pingyuan County.Zhao Yun found out that Liu Bei had led his troops to retreat to Pingyuan County.At this time, Pingyuan County was surrounded by thieves.Zhao Yun stationed at a pass, and then waited for the arrival of large troops.

Several hours later, General Tian led his troops to the pass set up by Zhao Yun.Zhao Yun went out to greet him, but General Tian didn't seem to think highly of Zhao Yun.He rode on the horse and said to Zhao Yun: "You have transported food so far, have you found any information?"

Zhao Yun replied: "Two hills away is Pingyuan County, which has been surrounded by [-] thieves."

Tian Kai said with a smile: "Okay, let me lead the army to defeat it, and let you see my ability."

Yun persuaded: "General Tian, ​​don't act recklessly. At this time, we need to think long-term."

"Don't talk too much, I have led soldiers to fight for many years, and I don't need you to teach me."

"General Tian, ​​there are a lot of thieves now, so don't attack at this time."

He replied: "It's just a mob, nothing to be afraid of!" Then he ordered to camp in place and make a stove for food.Before dark, defeat the bandit army in one fell swoop.

Zhao Yun couldn't help feeling extremely worried at this moment.I saw that all the soldiers waited in place after filling their stomachs.Tian Kai looked at it, and the sun had already set.So he drew out his sword and shouted: "Soldiers, attack Pingyuan County!"

In fact, Bian Xi's spies had known for a long time that they led an army to rescue Pingyuan County.So a hole had been laid on their way to Pingyuan County for General Tian to get in.In the end, they were all wiped out with bows and arrows.

Zhao Yun couldn't help getting angry when he repeatedly tried to persuade him to no avail.He knew that Tian Kai would definitely lose if he went.At that time, I can't escape the guilt.He thought for a while, and then said to his personal guards and the more than 1000 escorts: "There are only 100 guards left here, and everyone else follows me to rescue General Tian!"

Zhao Fan said at this time: "General, I'm going here, what if the food and grass are lost?"

"Don't worry, most of the thieves are besieging the city, and a small number of people are ambushing General Tian in front. There will be no surprise attack here."

Zhao Fan said: "If we go, we will leave our post without authorization. The crime is not light!"

Yun replied: "They were defeated, and we cannot escape the guilt." Then he left a hundred soldiers here.And he took a shortcut to catch up with Tian Kai.

Let's say Tian Kai led [-] soldiers to move forward quickly.When they walked into a narrow valley, suddenly many yellow turban thieves appeared on both sides of the valley.I saw them holding bows and arrows.When Tian Kai came to his senses, bows and arrows came raining down.Immediately, wailing was heard all over the valley, and countless casualties were lost.

When Zhao Yun arrived, the valley entrances on both sides had also been sealed by archers.Zhao Yun checked the terrain, then took out a secret letter and handed it to Zhao Fan, and said, "Use a bow and arrow to shoot this secret letter into Pingyuan County, and Liu Bei will know how to do it." Zhao Fan was ordered to leave.

After that, Zhao Yun ordered again: "Zhao Yong and Zhao Qiang, each of you will lead 200 people to kill the archers in Taniguchi." The two were ordered to leave.

And Zhao Yun took the remaining 600 people to wait for an opportunity on a high ground.After a while, all the archers at both ends of Taniguchi were dealt with by Zhao Yong and Zhao Qiang.At this time, the ambush soldiers in the valley saw the bow and arrow stopped suddenly, thinking it was a signal to attack, so they rushed down from above.The leader is Bian Xi.
