Chapter 187 Brothers meet, Liu Bei obtains the jade seal
"Why don't you dare!" Dian Weihu opened his eyes, quite dissatisfied.
Zhang Fei laughed and called to the knight behind him: "Give this warrior a war horse!"
But before the knight could dismount, Dian Wei rejected Zhang Fei's offer: "I have legs to run, so why do I need a war horse?"
Zhang Fei looks rough on the outside, but he is delicate on the inside. You can understand this when you hear it.
Dian Wei is not good at riding horses!
But Dian Wei didn't want to be underestimated.
"Okay! You follow the flag, I'll wait for you in front!" Zhang Fei didn't say much, and rode his horse to chase Yuan Shu in the direction of his retreat.
Dian Wei looked back and saw that Zhang Chao had already arrived with troops, so he took off all his armor and gave it to Zhang Chao. He took only the double iron halberd and the short halberd and went after Yuan Shu.
Dian Wei, who has been chasing tigers and leopards in the mountains all year round, has developed a pair of flying legs.
When it runs, it will not be slower than an ordinary war horse.
After all, the weight of this war horse is not low, and it cannot run at high speed all the time.
As long as the endurance is better than that of the war horse, Dian Wei can still catch up with the war horse even if the speed is slower!
Yuan Shu panicked and chose no path.
There are fewer and fewer soldiers and horses around here.
In order to escape, Yuan Shu threw almost all the weight off his horse, and finally even took off his golden helmet.
Even so, the pursuers behind him were still chasing after him.
In desperation, Yuan Shu had no choice but to let his cronies carry the general's flag and walk on the main road, while Yuan Shu took the small road and dived into the jungle.
"How treacherous!"
Zhang Fei picked up Yuan Shu's flag general who was carrying the flag and captured Yuan Shu's flag, his tone could not help but be angry.
Although there is moonlight, it is not as clear as during the day.
Zhang Fei also failed to notice when Yuan Shu took a small road and ran away.
"Dian Zhuangshi, since Yuan Shu has run away, why don't you come with me to see my eldest brother? My eldest brother is a member of the Han clan and likes to make friends with heroes the most." Zhang Fei invited.
Although Dian Wei was Chen Liubing, when Dian Wei charged into the battle, he didn't even have a flag.
This means that even if Dian Wei wears several layers of armor and holds a pair of iron halberds, he is only used as a warrior!
With such bravery, he was only used as a tough soldier. Zhang Fei couldn't help but secretly despise Zhang Miao.
Dian Wei did not answer, but caught Yuan Shu's bodyguard and interrogated him for a long time, then turned around and said: "I know where Yuan Shu has escaped, and I am going to capture Yuan Shu alive."
"Do you dare to follow me?"
Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment. Was his solicitation just now in vain?
Seeing that Dian Wei had the idea of competing again, Zhang Fei was not to be outdone: "Why don't you dare!"
Dian Wei pointed to Zhang Fei's horse and said: "It is not possible to cross mountains and ridges on horseback. You have to walk with me. If you don't dare, I won't wait."
How could Zhang Fei endure being provoked by Dian Wei?
Immediately, Zhang Fei ignored the dissuasion of his bodyguard Fan Jiang and Zhang Da and insisted on competing with Dian Wei.
Seeing Zhang Fei and Dian Wei sneaking into the jungle, Fan Jiang and Zhang Da were helpless.
"Zhang Da, why didn't you stop me? What if General Zhang does something wrong?"
"Stop? Why don't you stop? It's not like you don't know General Zhang's temper."
"But your surname is Zhang!"
"My surname is Zhang, and I am not a member of General Zhang's tribe. Besides, even if I am a member of General Zhang's tribe, I wouldn't dare to dissuade you."
"What now?"
"Just wait! We have troops and horses deployed along the way to support us."
As the night passes, the sky gradually turns white.
Scouts had already sent the battle report to Liu Bei.
"Yuan Shu is defeated!"
"Xian Mian, let's go meet Yun Chang!"
Liu Bei threw the chess piece away, stood up and breathed a long sigh of relief, his tone a little more joyful.
Zheng Ping smiled helplessly: "Your Majesty, at least you have finished playing chess."
Liu Bei laughed loudly: "No matter how many moves I make, I can't win, so I might as well admit defeat and save some face."
Zheng Ping also stood up, shook his feather fan lightly and said: "How do you know, sir, that I won't give in? How can you know how wonderful the result will be until the last moment?"
Liu Bei waved gently, and Guan Hai quickly gathered the guard camp.
As the saying goes: The spring breeze brings joy to horses' hoofs.
This is how Liu Bei felt at this time.
When Yuan Shu was at the camp, Qu Yi, Tai Shi Ci, and Tian Yu saw Liu Bei and all stepped forward to greet him.
Liu Bei was also very excited and quickly approached to express his condolences.
After a while of greetings, Liu Bei and Zheng Ping rode their horses to the gate of Fengqiu City.
Guan Yu, who was on the city tower, saw the banners below the city from a distance, and his eyes suddenly changed.
After a while.
The Red Rabbit Divine Horse rushed out of the city gate and stopped about fifty steps away from Liu Bei.
Guan Yu's nine-foot body jumped down like a vigorous cheetah.
Taking a few steps forward, Guan Yu knelt down on one knee.
When Liu Bei saw Guan Yu, he quickly ordered his flag to be held flat, signaling the troops to stop.
Immediately, Liu Bei also turned over and dismounted, trotted forward for a while, helped Guan Yu up, and his tone was a little more joyful.
"Yun Chang, I haven't seen you for a long time. Brother Yu misses you very much!"
Guan Yu's eyes were filled with tears, and his head fell to the right, his tone full of guilt: "Brother, my foolish brother is incompetent and failed to protect Master Lu!"
Seeing Guan Yu mention Lu Zhi, Liu Bei also felt sad in his heart.
However, Liu Bei knew very well that it was not Guan Yu's fault that Lu Zhi went to Chang'an!
Zheng Ping has already analyzed the deeper reasons for this to Liu Bei.
Lu Zhi really wanted to escape, so how could he not be able to escape?
"Yun Chang, what happened to Master Lu is not your fault. Don't blame yourself too much." Liu Bei comforted him kindly: "When Qingzhou can stand out among the heroes in the future, Brother Yu will go to Chang'an with Yun Chang!"
"Get up first!"
Liu Bei helped Guan Yu up and saw the extraordinary red rabbit horse behind Guan Yu. He couldn't help but exclaimed: "Yun Chang, this horse is quite extraordinary. Does it have a name?"
Guan Yu made a move with his hand, and the red rabbit horse snorted, walked to Guan Yu's side, and rubbed Guan Yu's palm.
"This horse is called Red Rabbit, and it was originally owned by Dong Zhuo."
"Dong Zhuo gave one of them to Lü Bu; and this one, Dong Zhuo gave to Master Lu, and Master Lu gave it to Yu Di."
"This horse can travel thousands of miles in a day and cross water as if it were flat ground! That day, Yu Di escorted Master Lu to meet Dong Zhuo. Master Lu asked Dong Zhuo for this magical horse because he was worried that Yu Di would be detained by Dong Zhuo."
Guan Yu quietly explained the origin of the red rabbit horse, which made Liu Bei secretly sigh.
"In addition, there is one more thing." Guan Yu suddenly lowered his voice: "In Fengqiu City, there is a national jade seal!"
"What?" Liu Bei was startled: "Yun Chang, can you see clearly?"
Guan Yu nodded solemnly: "You can't be wrong! Yuan Shu brought it to Fengqiu City and kept it very secret. If he hadn't accidentally learned about the existence of the national jade seal, I would not understand why Yuan Shu would give up going north and attack Fengqiu City.
.”
"If my foolish brother's guess is correct, the imperial seal must have been obtained by Sun Jian that day, and then Sun Jian handed it over to Yuan Shu. Only then did Yuan Shu force Sun Jian to withdraw his troops."
Liu Bei's eyes also became solemn: "It must be so! The reason why Yuan Shu retreated at such a critical moment has always been unclear, and now it is clear."
"Rather than breaking into Chang'an to replace Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shu, who has the imperial seal, has enough reputation to support a new emperor!"
Guan Yu asked again: "If the eldest brother obtains the imperial seal, can he command the Qinwang in the world?"
Liu Bei shook his head and his eyes became even more solemn: "It's not that simple! The imperial seal is too hot to touch. If I don't handle it properly, I will have to bear the infamy of the ages."
Guan Yu was surprised: "Brother, getting the imperial seal is a great achievement. How can he be infamy?"
Liu Bei asked: "Yunchang, do you think I should send the imperial seal to Chang'an, or stay in Qingzhou?"
