Three Kingdoms.

  Chapter 1561 The night is desolate

  The night is bleak.

   The wind panicked.

  If there are some eggshells and blowing on it, it will be very good and very suitable for the occasion.

  The three Liu Bei brothers sat and lay in the same tent, speechless for a while.

  The bonfire in the tent has been extinguished, and there is only one torch stuck on a small wooden stick, standing in a corner of the tent, somewhat separating the three of Liu Bei from the darkness.

Guan Yu was lying on the couch with his hands and feet tied up, the white cloth on his hands and feet was faintly bloody, and the smell of blood exuded a single dog, bah, the fragrance of herbs, although his expression was a little sluggish, Perhaps it was because the treatment was relatively timely, so no complications have been found so far. It's just that Guan Yu needs to rest for at least a few months if he wants to recover from such an injury.

   "Second Brother..." Seeing that Guan Yu was not asleep, Liu Bei leaned over and asked softly, "Do you feel uncomfortable? Would you like some water?"

  Guan Yu shook his head silently, and sighed softly: "It's okay...but I feel a little aggrieved..."

   "Aww..." Zhang Fei couldn't hold back anymore, he lowered his voice and roared, "This little Zhengxi thief is lying and deceiving! I'm so angry!"

   Liu Bei glared at Zhang Fei.

   Zhang Fei pursed his mouth and turned his head away.

Zhang Fei really couldn't hold back, but he didn't dare to yell too loudly when he called Gui Ming, because Zhang Fei knew that Guan Yu should be the first to be deceived, and Guan Yu was seriously injured. Calling, causing Guan Yu's emotional breakdown and causing his injuries to burst, is even worse.

The three Liu Bei brothers are not fools either. When they separated, they could be deceived by Fei Qian one by one. When they got together, they naturally exposed Fei Qian's previous strategy. Inevitably, there will be a lot of anger. It's just that among this kind of anger, six points are due to defeat, three points are due to confusion about the future, and the remaining one point is due to the anger of being deceived...

Liu Bei took Guan Yu's hand lightly, and then glared at Zhang Fei. He comforted Guan Yu and said, "Second brother, third brother, you and I are like brothers. Since this is the case, how can we give up on siblings? What's more...Zhengxi also It's not too much, I still left Danyang soldiers for the three of us..."

   "Danyang soldiers?" Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were immediately distracted by Liu Bei and asked in unison.

Liu Bei nodded, remembering the time when he followed Fei Qian around the barracks during the day, blinked his eyes a few times, and sighed slightly: "You and my brother, it's not wrong to lose...Zheng Xi is so profound Test...Second brother, third brother, Sichuan and Shu soldiers will not be mentioned...Dongzhou soldiers have been under our hands for at least a year? As a result, they have been in Zhengxi's hands. It took only two or three nights of hard work, and most of them returned...Really, really ...Hey, if Zhengxi hadn't shown some kindness, I'm afraid Danyang soldiers would also..."

   "What?!" Zhang Fei's eyes widened.

"To conquer the west, use Sichuan and Shu to lead Sichuan and Shu, use Jingxiang to get close to Jingxiang, and use Guanzhong to close Dongzhou..." Liu Bei said slowly, "Trouble his mind with trivial matters, rest his heart with food and clothing, and lure his wishes with merit... Now Among the three armies of Chuanshu, Jingxiang, and Dongzhou, seven or eight out of ten have already abandoned the past, I don’t know you and my brother, the only way is to conquer the west..."

  Guan Yu could not help but take a deep breath. Guan Yu also trained soldiers for a long time. Naturally, he knew in his heart how dull their heads were for these soldiers transferred from farmers. Sometimes they could not understand human speech without sticks and whips. However, with such a group of people, Liu Bei actually said that most of these people had returned to Zhengxi, which surprised Guan Yu inexplicably.

   "These unscrupulous guys! Their consciences have been eaten by maggots!" Zhang Fei muttered dissatisfiedly, "It's a pity that I treat them well! What a waste of my good intentions!"

  Liu Bei glanced at Zhang Fei, but did not speak. Zhang Fei's so-called kindness came out with a whip. In Zhang Fei's eyes, soldiers who are disobedient will be beaten, and if they are beaten, they will be obedient. Therefore, Liu Bei will not let Zhang Fei come forward unless he wants to make a bad face. training soldiers...

Regardless of whether Zhang Fei's kindness is sincere or not, Liu Bei has to be amazed just by the speed at which Zhengxi gathers soldiers. Feelings, did not directly tell Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

  Because I said it, it was useless.

  Fei Qian is using such a method to explain to Liu Bei that Zhengxi is more suitable than Liu Bei and is more popular with these soldiers. It is also expressing that Liu Bei should be more peaceful...

  However, although Liu Bei vaguely knew the intention of conquering the West, he was not convinced.

"Ha, after all, Zhengxi still left behind Danyang soldiers, saying that they still belong to you and my brothers..." Liu Bei said with a smile, "Second brother, don't think too much, now, take good care of your wounds, and wait for them to recover , can make a difference..."

  Zhang Fei nodded and said: "Yes, the second brother needs to heal his wounds well, tell me what you want to eat, my old Zhang will go to hunt some animals in the mountains outside the camp tomorrow!"

  Guan Yu heard the words, sighed slightly, nodded, then lay down again, and closed his eyes.

Liu Bei comforted Zhang Fei again, and drove Zhang Fei to sleep. Then he returned to the bed beside him and lay down. He turned sideways and covered his body with the quilt. The gentleness on his face slowly faded in the shadows. Cool down. Zhengxi left Danyang soldiers behind. It is indeed something to be happy about, but only a little bit, because the Danyang soldiers are already incomplete, and there are not many in number...

Another very important point is that if there are only the three of them, if Guan Yu's injury is healed, if he really wants to escape, he can slap his **** and leave. But now that there are more Danyang soldiers, and even some wounded soldiers, it is not so light and easy to leave.

   I want to stay, the monthly salary of this year...

  If you don’t look for Zhengxi, where can you get it?

   But looking for Zhengxi, after reaching out again and again, how long can I keep the ambition and arrogance in my heart?

  These Danyang soldiers looked like they were being taken care of by Zhengxi, but they weren't like shackles?

  It's a pity that I still have to take it willingly, and put it on myself...

  Zhengxi, Zhengxi...

  Liu Bei huddled in the shadows on the bed, eyes open, frowning. Seeing that he climbed over the threshold of no confusion, he quickly moved towards Zhitianming, and the speed of physical aging seemed to suddenly increase. Is there a day when the ambition in my heart will be realized?

  Where is the glory of the Han family?

  The world is so big, is there really no place where the three of my brothers can live and work?

  Before he knew it, Liu Bei felt the corners of his eyes moist, which turned cold immediately. He quickly wiped them with his sleeve, exhaled slowly, and closed his eyes silently.

  The night is bleak.

   Panic.

   Above the tent, there seemed to be some sparse voices. After a while, the soldiers on duty in the camp exclaimed: "Aha! It's snow! It's snowing..."

  …………………

  Anham.

  The sky is gloomy.

  Yi Ji was wearing a samurai uniform with narrow cuffs, holding a sword formula in one hand, and wielding a long sword in the other.

Most of the scholars in the Han Dynasty knew two-handed martial arts. No matter how bad they were, they could shoot a few rounds with a bow. normal range.

Yi Ji followed Liu Qi to Badong, but met Kuai Qi who had a strong desire for power. Well, in other words, the three brothers of the Kuai family are all similar, perhaps only the eldest of the Kuai family is a little more stable, and the second and third brothers are both. A bit of a power grab character.

As an old man who has been with Liu Biao for many years, Yi Ji is not willing to break faces with Kuai Qi, so he gives way to Kuai Qi most of the time. Anyway, he only needs to take care of the internal affairs and help his son Liu Qi to stabilize the people's livelihood. , As for other things, Yiji doesn't want to take care of them, and of course, he can't do them either.

"Gentleman's sword, you should know how to do it, raise your sleeves, shine the sun and stars..." When the dance was full of enthusiasm, Yiji put away the long sword, flicked his fingers on the sword ridge, and chanted and sang, "... the sword in your hand, Draw the past and the present, break the floating clouds, open the Taiqing..."

   "What a gentleman's sword, you should go straight..." Liu Qi couldn't help applauding and praised, "A gentleman's sword, you should use it straight, and you should never give up, and go straight... Uncle Ji's words are incisive and thought-provoking..."

  Yi Ji turned around, quickly lowered the long sword in his hand, put it into the scabbard, cupped his hands and said: "I don't know that you are coming, but I haven't been far enough to welcome you, I hope you will forgive me..."

  Nima, I mean "knowing and doing", not "going straight"! When you hit a wall, you need to know it hurts, and you need to know how to find a way, instead of just thinking about "going straight"!

  But it’s hard to say, you foolish son, you have heard everything wrong...

  Liu Qi waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, someone is rude, he came here rashly, I don't think it's strange."

  Yi Ji even said he didn't dare, and then asked Liu Qi to sit in the hall, and called the servants to prepare food and refreshments.

   "Don't bother too much..." Liu Qi said, "I brought some drinks with me, and I want to have a drink with Uncle Ji..."

  The two sat down in the hall. After a moment of silence, Liu Qi spoke first and said, "Uncle Ji thinks that we can fight against Zhengxi alone?"

  Yi Ji was taken aback for a moment, pondering, and didn't answer right away.

Liu Qi sighed for a long time, and said: "When I heard that my family was in trouble, I wish I could turn around immediately and serve in front of my knees... However, in the land of Sichuan and Shu, if you lose your troops and lose ground, what would it be like if you just return to the army... Alas ..."

  Yi Ji took a slight glance at Liu Qi, knowing it clearly.

  Liu Biao is sick now.

  Liu Qi is naturally eager to go back...

  Although the relationship between Liu Qi and Liu Biao is not very good, it is related to the inheritance of Jing Xiang after all, so unless they are two idiots, they both know what to do. But the problem is that after Liu Qi entered Sichuan, he hadn't won any battles, and he didn't even have any meritorious service. If he went back like this, it would be like what Liu Qi himself said, without any face, so what? To fight with his brother?

"The three brothers of the Liu family are exaggerating! They have done a lot of damage!" Liu Qi gritted his teeth angrily when he said this, "First they cheated some soldiers, but they couldn't beat Central Sichuan! Now that they have conquered Chengdu from the west, they will definitely collect all the soldiers and march into the army soon. Badong, take Jingchuan Shu! Now I am fish and meat, and people are knives, what can I do!?"

  Yiji said slowly: "My lord is too worried...Zhengxi will not rush into Padang..."

   "Why did Uncle Ji say that?" Liu Qi stared at Yi Ji with piercing eyes and asked without blinking.

Yi Ji bowed slightly, and said: "Although Sichuan is defeated, it is not yet decided. Chengdu, which was newly conquered in the west, must be appeased inside, so that it can be fought outside. It is also cold in winter, and the mountain roads in Badong are rugged. After the spring of next year, at this moment, we only need to guard against An Han, but there is no near worry."

  Liu Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately lifted it up again, his eyes shrinking slightly, "So, there is no near-term worry, should there be long-term concern?"

Yiji nodded, his tone still steady, yet earnest: "Young Master, how can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch? In the past... well, forget it... Now that Zhengxi is in the middle of Sichuan, how can he just sit and watch Badong hang out alone? ?”

  Liu Qi twitched uneasily, looking at the increasingly gloomy sky outside, it seemed that his face was becoming more and more gloomy.

  Yiji sat upright like a puppet.

  Liu Qi cast a sideways glance at Yi Ji, then turned around, facing Yi Ji, and said earnestly, "If it's according to Uncle Ji's plan, what should we do now?"

Yiji smiled slightly, and said almost without thinking: "The current choice is not the strategy of Ji, it is what you want..." I said before, if you don't listen to it, listen to Kuai Qi's little one. Bitch, now I finally know how to find my old lady, bah, I'm here?

  Liu Qi was taken aback for a moment, then smiled a little awkwardly, and said: "I was ashamed for not following Ji Bo's advice before... Now that the situation is urgent, I hope that Ji Bo can take a serious view of my family and give me some advice..."

  Yi Ji lowered his eyelids, and said in a low voice: "According to someone's opinion, it's still one word..."

   Liu Qi frowned tightly, and said, "Peace? Seek peace?"

  Iji is silent.

   Liu Qi took a deep breath, turned his head and looked out of the hall.

  The clouds in the sky were low, there was almost no wind, and the surroundings were dull, just like Liu Qi's heart at the moment, depressed and powerless.

Liu Qi, as a person who is still on the edge of the middle school age range, even though the pressure is so great now, there are still some old people who can do this, but you must not say the idea, if it is not because of Yiji, he followed Liu Biao The old man, no matter how you say it, can be regarded as a figure of the uncle's generation, so he must know how powerful he is!

   "But..." Liu Qi was silent for a long time, and said in a low voice, "If a certain leader enters Sichuan, if...he strikes a fight with Zhengxi and seeks peace, won't he be ridiculed by others?"

  Yi Ji smiled slightly and said, "Your Master, do you know the Jingxiang Huang family?"

   "Huh?" Liu Qi was a little dazed, why did he suddenly talk about it, and the topic turned to Jingxiang Huang?

Yiji said: "My lord is in charge of Jingxiang. There are eight counties in the north and south. There are thousands of officials and one hundred thousand soldiers...how can anyone be ashamed of the Huang family in Jingxiang?" no? I can't bear it when others say a word, so why don't you think about the **** things you did before?

  When Liu Qi heard the words, he couldn't help but stayed for a long time, unable to say anything for a long time.

Outside the hall, it became more and more gloomy. Immediately, at an unknown time, pieces of snowflakes drifted down, and rushed towards the earth full of filth and bloodstains without hesitation, as if trying to cover everything up, or to purify this person the world...
