Emperor Road of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 147 Choice

Zhao Yun drove his horse forward, hiding under the mound, quietly looking into the distance.

It was dusk at this time, the cold wind was howling, and the setting sun was falling to the west. Liu Bei's army who was besieging the city had also dragged their weapons weakly and rushed to the barracks.

In the center of the army, there are three horses and three unusually eye-catching generals, namely Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei.

His long beard reaches his chest, his face is like a jujube, and his red phoenix eyes are slightly opened and closed.Guan Yu held Qinglong Yanyue Saber obliquely in one hand, and gently stroked his long beard with the other. He sat on the horse without saying a word, and followed behind Liu Bei.

Liu Bei's face was as white as jade, covered with traces of time and a gloomy look.He also sat on the horse, without saying a word, seemingly lost in thought.

Only the irascible Zhang Fei on the side, with his beard and hair stretched out, with a displeased expression on his face, turned his head and said angrily: "Break this city gate, I will definitely slaughter him, so that you can know the consequences of offending your family's three generals."

"Okay, Yide, you don't have to be angry." Liu Bei's eyes moved slightly, the gloomy face dissipated, and the wrinkles also opened.He looked at Zhang Fei and said with a smile, "The general who defends the city is really extraordinary. He has defended the city all these days. But that's all. I will be able to defeat Shangcai tomorrow. When Shangcai is captured, I will definitely recruit Then the city guard. Also, Yide, you are not allowed to slaughter the soldiers."

In the end, Liu Bei was a little worried about Zhang Fei, so he made a point of exhorting him.

Hearing this, Zhang Fei had a bitter face, muttered a few words, and replied helplessly: "Brother, don't worry, I won't mess around."

"Well, it's best like this. Yunchang, Yide, let's go back to camp."

Seeing Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei chatting and laughing in the distance, Zhao Yun showed a complex expression on his face.Of course he couldn't hear what they were talking about, not even the humming of the soldiers.But when he saw this scene with his own eyes, Liu Bei walked on the battlefield full of corpses, not with a worried expression, but with a smile on his face.

In fact, it wasn't this scene that made Zhao Yun calm down.Liu Bei talked and laughed a lot on the battlefield, how could Zhao Yun have a bad impression of him because of this?

What drove Zhao Yun to calm down and stop adoring Liu Bei as "fanatically" as before was the influence of everyone along the way, as well as Zhao Yun's own prudence and wisdom.Of course, apart from this, the most important thing is Zhao Hongyi's influence on him.

Zhao Yun wanted to take Zhao Hongyi to join Liu Bei, and it was no longer a matter of a day or two.But before Liu Yu and the others didn't come back, Zhao Hongyi couldn't do it, and Zhao Yun couldn't help it.But when Liu Yu and the others came back, Zhao Hongyi still refused to follow, and even talked about Zhao Yun instead.

Zhao Hongyi told Zhao Yun very resolutely that he was following Liu Yu and Xiahoulan.Zhao Yun naturally knew that Zhao Hongyi had a secret affection for Liu Yu.Apart from her firm stand, Zhao Hongyi, a formerly innocent girl, actually uttered a lot of truth.

Perhaps it was the experience of suffering, she told Zhao Yun:
Liu Yu is the brother of the emperor and has an imperial edict in his hand.You usually call yourself a loyal man, but now why do you want to go to that Liu Bei instead?I am ignorant and do not know who Liu Bei is.But after listening to you, I also know that the man attacked Runan for Cao's thief and guarded Xiaopei for Lu Bu.How can such a person be trusted?

In addition, the younger sister is on the son's side and needs help.If your elder brother doesn't help, who else is willing to help?Forget it, if you insist on leaving, then go, even if Grandpa misreads you.

Such thoughtful words were naturally not something that Zhao Hongyi could say.Although she has been tempered a lot and is not as pure as before, she will not say such words.This was what Liu Yu told her through Zhang Rong.

That's right, this is Liu Yu's strategy.How could he let Zhao Yun go, thus making himself a big enemy, and even exposing himself?As for passing Zhang Rong instead of Liu Han, there is also a reason.

Although Liu Han is close enough, she doesn't have the wisdom to come up with such a scheme.Asking her to tell Zhao Hongyi might have exposed herself instead, and Liu Yu didn't want to expose herself.But Zhang Rong, he can not only be trusted, but also can come up with such a trick.If others asked, he said that he learned from Du Ji, how could anyone doubt it?As for Du Ji, even if he knew it, he would not expose it.

When Zhao Yun heard what Zhao Hongyi said, he was naturally shocked, and even wondered if she said it.But Zhao Hongyi firmly insisted that she was the one who thought about this, and Zhao Yun had no choice.In addition, after listening to Zhao Hongyi's words, Zhao Yun was not only a little guilty, but also couldn't help falling into deep thought.

In the end, although he didn't want to leave Zhao Hongyi, he couldn't make up his mind for a while.But when he saw Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei who were intimate on the battlefield, he suddenly figured it out and suddenly had an answer.

Seeing that Zhao Yun didn't go straight to Liu Bei's barracks, Liu Yu showed a smile on his face, guessing that Zhao Yun would probably not leave.Therefore, he immediately walked out unabashedly, and asked with a smile, "Zilong, have you thought about it?"

If Zhao Yun finds out about it afterwards, he will inevitably feel resentful.Therefore, it is better to come out by himself, even if Zhao Yun finds out about it later, he will probably feel better.

"General, Yun and Duke Xuande are old friends. This time..." Zhao Yun had a complicated expression on his face, and instead of answering Liu Yu's question, he said calmly.

But before he finished speaking, Liu Yu's eyes lit up, and he suppressed his excitement and replied: "It's natural, Zilong, you still have to protect Han'er and Hongyi. Okay, let's go back first, it's too much here." Danger."

As he said that, he had already led the horse to go back.But Xu Chu and Zhao Yun didn't say a word, but also urged the horses to follow closely behind.

After returning to the camp, Xu Chu, a dull gourd, took the initiative to find Liu Yu and asked him if it would be dangerous for Zhao Yun to stay behind?

After listening to Liu Yu, he smiled and told him not to worry, Zilong is definitely not a duplicity person.

Hearing what Liu Yu said, Xu Chu was still a little worried, but thinking about Zhao Yun's character, he didn't say any more.

After the matter about Zhao Yun was over, Liu Yu began to deal with Liu Bei.He also saw the battlefield with his own eyes today, and knew that Shangcai City was in danger.If he doesn't do anything, Liu Bei will probably be able to attack tomorrow.

Therefore, Liu Yu thought about it and decided to do it at night.

Before doing it, you need to make some arrangements. Night raids are not that simple.And even if the night attack is successful, without the cooperation of Shangcai City, his mere 500 troops will probably be wiped out by Liu Bei in the end.

Speaking of these 500 people, I have to add a word here.Liu Yu's personal guards originally had only 200 people, but he selected 300 troops from the captured Cao army and incorporated them into his personal guards.It's not that they are just let into the pro-guard army, it's just that there is no way to do it now, so it's for the time being.

The preparations for the night attack were mainly to motivate the soldiers and send people to contact Chen Dao in the city.In addition, there are several people arranged for Liu Han.

Contact Chen Dao in the city, Liu Yu has sent someone there; arrange for Liu Han and others, and they are also arranged.Liu Yu is now waiting to inspire the soldiers.

But at this moment, the setting sun shone like blood on the earth, Xia Houlan and Zhou Cang rectified the soldiers, and walked towards Liu Yu with a solemn face.
