Choose Liu Bei at the start, I am the only one who knows the plot of the Three Kingdoms

After Cao Cao's envoy left, only the next day, Gu Rubing received the news that Cao Cao had left with his troops and agreed to exchange Xiahou Dun for three thousand good horses and five thousand fine armor.

However, Cao Cao could not get so many horses and armor in a short period of time, so he could only make a temporary appointment and exchange with himself later when he got them all.

After seeing that Cao Cao had indeed led his troops to leave, Gu Rubing directly led the army and began to march from Hejian to Zhongshan, preparing to cut off Yuan Shao's retreat, and attack Yuan Shao from both front and rear with Gongsun Zan.

The news that Cao Cao was defeated and returned to Yanzhou spread immediately like wildfire starting a prairie fire, shaking the whole of Hebei in an instant!

At this time, Yuan Shao's army was inside the tent.

Yuan Shao is sitting on the main seat, with generals such as Qu Yi, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Han Meng, Chunyu Qiong, and Zhang He on the left, and counselors such as Ju Sue, Tian Feng, Guo Tu, Feng Ji, Xu You, and Xun Chen on the right. .

A group of civil servants and generals were discussing how to deal with Gongsun Zan who turned from defense to offense.

Since lending troops to Cao Cao, Gongsun Zan now seized the opportunity and began to continuously make raids out of the city. However, Yuan Jun had no choice but to switch from the original offensive to a defensive posture.

Report!

At this moment, a spy with a look of horror on his face hurriedly ran into the military tent, knelt down on one knee, cupped his hands in front of Yuan Shao and said, My lord, something bad has happened!

Um?

Yuan Shao frowned slightly and asked, Why are you so panicked?

My lord, Cao Cao has been defeated by Liu Bei. His general Cao Hong has been beheaded, Xiahou Dun has been captured, and his strength is only about 6,000!

The spy immediately handed over his hands, took a deep breath, and reported: Cao Cao has withdrawn his troops from Hejian. Now, Liu Bei is leading the army to march from Hejian to Hanchang, Zhongshan, and will arrive at Hanchang in the near future!

The spies' words can be said to stir up a thousand waves!

Suddenly, all the advisers and generals in the military tent could not help but widen their eyes in shock, with looks of horror on their faces!

What?!

Jushou stood up directly after hearing this, with a look of disbelief on his face, and said: Cao Cao is a hero of the world. He has an army of 20,000. His subordinates Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan are even more powerful generals of the world. Chen Gong is also very resourceful. Even if he is defeated, The casualties wouldn’t be so heavy!”

My subordinates dare not lie!

The spy shook his head, his face full of shock, and he raised his hands and said: But it is indeed true!

Cao Cao sent two generals, Xiahou Dun and Le Jin, to cut off Liu Bei's food route. Liu Bei led the main force to intercept Xiahou Dun and Le Jin, while only Xu Rong was left to guard the camp!

However, no one could have imagined that Cao Cao's army, which Xu Rong killed by himself, was almost wiped out. Only 500 soldiers and horses of the 10,000-strong army successfully escaped. If Cao Hong hadn't offered his horses to save him, now... I'm afraid Cao Cao would have been killed by Xu Rong. kill!

Hearing this, Yuan Shao was even more confused and said in shock: Alone? How is it possible?! Xu Rong almost wiped out Cao's army by himself?

My lord, everything I said is true!

The spy saw Yuan Shao's expression of disbelief and immediately spoke.

Suddenly, the entire military tent fell into an eerie silence.

After a long time, Xun Chen stood up with a solemn face, cupped his hands to Yuan Shao, and took the lead in breaking the silence.

My lord, since Cao Cao has been defeated, I think we should withdraw our troops immediately!

Xun Chen paused and continued: Otherwise, once Liu Bei cuts off our army's retreat and our army goes deep alone and is attacked from both sides by Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei, I'm afraid we will suffer a major defeat!

After hearing Xun Chen's words, Tian Feng also nodded and said: If what you say is true, my lord should withdraw his troops immediately and retreat to Lunu. We can't hold out! We can make further plans to take Youzhou.

Xu You beside Tian Feng also said in deep thought: My lord, yes, the only plan now is to retreat. Gongsun Zan is an incompetent person. After Liu Bei withdraws his troops and leaves, we can look for good opportunities to defeat him!

Guo Tu and Feng Ji did not object, and they all raised their hands and said: My lord, Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei are attacking from both sides. Their power is still strong. Our army is definitely no match for us. We should retreat as soon as possible!

Then is it possible that the Hejian we just recaptured will just be given away to others?

Han Meng, the military commander on the left, frowned and said: Previously, Gongsun Zan led a large army to suppress the border, and the states and counties in Jizhou surrendered. In such an adverse situation, didn't the lord also defeat Gongsun Zan?

You're right. With my lord's strength, even if Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan join forces, they will definitely not be their opponents!

Chunyu Qiong nodded and said with a look of approval: My lord, I am willing to lead the tiger and wolf troops to ambush our army behind. Once Liu Bei leads his army and wants to cut off our army's retreat, I will definitely defeat him. Come back!

The general is willing to go together!

Han Meng also spoke up and volunteered.

The two generals are brave, but they underestimate the enemy too much.

At this moment, Xu You gently stroked his beard, shook his head, and said: This victory means victory. Once the two generals are defeated, have they ever thought about the danger our army will be in?

this……

Hearing Xu You's words, Chunyu Qiong and Han Meng were speechless.

Indeed, it would be fine if they defeated Liu Bei, but once defeated, Yuan Junke, who was alone and deeply entrenched, would face disaster, or even the entire army may be annihilated!

The big-eared thief derailed my important mission, and I am incompatible with him!

At this moment, Yuan Shao finally gritted his teeth and said with a face full of reluctance: Give me the order to withdraw your troops immediately and defend Lunu!

yes!

Hearing Yuan Shao speak, the generals in the tent finally had no objections and immediately accepted the order.

…………

Soon, the news of Yuan Shao's withdrawal spread immediately, and after learning about Yuan Shao's retreat to Lunu, Gu Rubing immediately stopped his march towards Zhongshan.

He came here only to relieve the siege of Youzhou, but he had no intention of fighting Yuan Shao with Gongsun Zan. It would be best if Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao remained in a stalemate, and he would sit in Qingzhou and watch the two tigers fight.

Gu Rubing pondered for a moment and then said: Here comes someone!

exist!

The guard immediately stepped forward, cupped his hands and said.

Now that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have all withdrawn their troops, Hejian is no longer safe to defend. Go to Zhuojun and tell Gongsun to come with me and push back to Hejian! Gu Rubing said.

yes!

The bodyguard accepted the order and left in a hurry.

After Gu Rubing led his troops to stop for two days, he learned that Gongsun Zan had raised troops and began to push back towards Hejian.

Gu Rubing also immediately led his troops to cooperate with Gongsun Zan and began to attack Hejian.

finally.

Under the joint attack of Gu Rubing and Gongsun Zan, Hejian County, which had few remaining forces, could be said to have been pushed forward. In just five days, Gu Rubing had captured the entire Wuheng area and stopped at Renqiu City. Come down.

Gongsun Zan also captured the entire Yixian area and began to lead his troops towards Renqiu to join Gu Rubing.

Two days later.

Gu Rubing was on the city wall of Renqiu City. He didn't wait long before he saw a group of mighty soldiers and horses approaching Renqiu City. The battle flag with Gongsun written on it was fluttering in the wind.

This group of soldiers, horses and cavalry was very large, and everyone was wearing velvet armor. Especially the cavalry led by three thousand people, all riding white horses, holding long spears and carrying big bows, looked heroic and incomparable.

And at the front of the three thousand white horse followers was Gongsun Zan, who looked handsome and wore silver armor.

Open the city gate!

After seeing Gongsun Zan, Gu Rubing immediately gave the order. At the same time, he and a group of personal guards left the city wall and drove to the city gate to greet him.

Soon, after seeing Gu Rubing appearing at the city gate, Gongsun Zan's eyes lit up and he immediately accelerated his horse. Soon he and several personal guards arrived at the city first and stopped in front of Gu Rubing.

Good brother!

Gongsun Zan got off his horse, raised his hands to Gu Rubing and said sincerely: Thank you, dear brother, for leading the troops to rescue me. I will never forget such a great kindness! If it weren't for my dear brother, I would have been destroyed!

It can be said that Gongsun Zan's words were sincere and there was absolutely no politeness at all!

At that time, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao joined forces to attack, Youzhou was in danger, and Gongsun Zan was almost desperate!

It turned out that Gu Rubing defeated the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, came to Youzhou to support him, and finally defeated Cao Cao, forcing Yuan Shao to retreat and accept the siege of Youzhou.

For Gongsun Zan, Gu Rubing is nothing less than a lifesaver!

Brother Bogui, why do you need to be so polite?

After seeing Gongsun Zan, Gu Rubing's eyes flashed and he immediately raised his hand and said: When Qingzhou was in trouble before, I asked Brother Bogui to borrow troops. Brother Bogui didn't say anything and just lent three thousand cavalry to Brother Fool. ?”

Hearing this, Gongsun Zan felt a little embarrassed.

After all, he didn't want to borrow it at first. At that time, he had too much advantage in attacking Yuan Shao, and he didn't want to cause trouble and fall out with Liu Bei. It happened that Changshan County had just surrendered a group of cavalry, and there was no loss to him if he borrowed it, so he took advantage of the situation and borrowed it. .

But Gongsun Zan never expected that his unintentional act of kindness would actually save his life.

But after this incident, Gongsun Zan also felt that he had fully realized what kind of person Liu Bei was.

Liu Bei can handle this, and he will really help him if something happens!

Now Gongsun Zan has truly regarded Liu Bei as one of his own and has confirmed his intention to form an alliance!

My dear brother, what you said is wrong. My dear brother and I are classmates. We are inseparable from each other. How can I sit back and ignore my dear brother when he is in trouble?

It was naturally impossible for Gongsun Zan to say that he had no intention of borrowing troops before. He shook his head and said.

This is exactly the reason why Brother Bogui saw that his foolish brother was in trouble, so he borrowed troops to help him.

Gu Rubing smiled and said: Now that Youzhou is in trouble, how can you turn a blind eye?

Hearing this, Gongsun Zan was stunned for a moment, then looked at Gu Rubing, feeling even more grateful.

Just as Gongsun Zan was about to speak, Gu Rubing spoke again: Brother Bogui, stop standing and talking. Let's lead the army into the city first.

That's fine.

Gongsun Zan nodded and said, There will be a banquet tonight. My dear brother and I will drink and chat until we get drunk.

Then it's better to be respectful than to obey.

Gu Rubing was not polite, smiled and nodded, and then made way for Gongsun Zan.

Enter the city!

Gongsun Zan turned his head, looked at the army behind him, shouted loudly, and led the army into Renqiu City.

…………

night.

In Renqiu's mansion, a banquet has been set up, and there is a scene of people drinking and drinking.

Gongsun Zan sat on the main seat, and Gu Rubing sat under the seat on the right side of Gongsun Zan.

Come!

Gongsun Zan raised his wine glass and said to Gu Rubing, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other generals: Zan would like to thank you all for leading your troops to help. I have prepared a small amount of wine. Please enjoy your drink! Zan drinks first as a token of respect!

After saying this, Gongsun Zan raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp!

Upon seeing this, generals Gu Rubing, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei also immediately raised their glasses and drank them all in one gulp.

Gongsun Zan looked at Gu Rubing, sighed, and said: I only regret that I didn't listen to my wise brother's words and rashly sent troops to attack Yuan Shao before waiting for my wise brother. Now Yuan Shao has established a foothold in Jizhou. The situation has been achieved. I regret it. It’s too late!”

With that said, Gongsun Zan filled another glass of wine himself, raised the glass, and spoke to Gu Rubing again: I will punish myself with one drink, and I hope that my dear brother will not have any grudges.

After finishing speaking, Gongsun Zan drank the wine in the cup again.

Seeing this scene, Gu Rubing immediately spoke, gave Gongsun Zan a step up, and said: Brother Bogui also heard that your brother was harmed by Yuan Shao, and he was eager for revenge. I understand. What's more, Yuan Shao's plot in Youzhou is probably not trivial. .”

Hearing Gu Rubing's words, Gongsun Zan's eyes lit up when he looked at Gu Rubing, he immediately nodded and gritted his teeth and said: That's right! Yuan Shao betrayed his trust, captured Jizhou, and killed my brother. If I don't avenge this, I have How do you stand in this world?!

Seeing this scene, Gu Rubing looked at Gongsun Zan with a strange look.

It’s okay to deceive others, but don’t deceive yourself.

However, Gu Rubing still comforted him by saying, Brother Bogui, please forgive me.

My dear brother, Yuan Shao is so ambitious. Even if he stops his troops now, he will probably not give up easily. Sooner or later he will invade Youzhou again.

A trace of worry appeared on Gongsun Zan's face, and he said: Yuan Shao's generals Qu Yi, Gao Lan, Yan Liang, and Wen Chou are all famous generals in the world. Especially that Qu Yi, not only did he kill my general Yan Gang, but also eight Bai Xiandeng's dead soldiers are so brave that it is difficult for me to resist them alone.

Gongsun Zan changed his tone, stared at Gu Rubing closely, and said: My dear brother is located in Qingzhou. I want to form an alliance with my dear brother to fight against Yuan Shao. I wonder what my dear brother wants?

Exactly what I wanted!

Gu Rubing nodded and said with a righteous look: I am willing to advance and retreat together with my brother. If Yuan Shao's troops invade Youzhou, I will never sit idly by and ignore it!

Hahaha!

Hearing this, Gongsun Zan laughed loudly and was overjoyed. He quickly raised his wine glass and said, Okay! You and I are allies, so why should we be afraid of Yuan Shao? My dear brother, drink up this glass!

please!

Upon hearing this, Gu Rubing immediately raised his wine glass, shook it with Gongsun Zan in the air, and then drank with his sleeves covered.

Gongsun Zan had just finished drinking, and immediately filled up another glass, and said to everyone at the table: Everyone, come, now that Yuan Shao has withdrawn his troops, and I have formed an alliance with Xuande, it is really a double joy. Everyone, let's drink together!

Immediately, everyone at the table raised their glasses, and the atmosphere was extremely lively.

Gongsun Zan suddenly noticed Gu Rubing who was frowning slightly beside him. He was confused and asked, Is there something on your mind, my dear brother?

After hearing this, Gu Rubing said: Brother Bogui doesn't know something. I previously encircled and suppressed the Yellow Turbans and sent troops to support Youzhou. The losses were huge, all due to the lack of cavalry.

Please order more! Asking for a monthly ticket!
