Chapter 550: Two or three things about Liu Bei borrowing troops
Zuo Aoran has never been a person who makes people pay attention. With a wave of his big hand, soldiers brought up three weapons racks. Zuo Aoran raised his fists to the generals under Liu Bei's command and said: "I don't know that all the generals will follow me."
My brother is here together, so I have not prepared any gifts for you. The above weapons are for you to choose from, and I will make up for the generous gifts for you in the future."
The weapons of the Zuo family are well-known high-quality weapons in the Thirteen Prefectures. If Zuo Aoran can deliver them, they must be high-quality weapons! Liu Bei is so poor, how can he equip his subordinates with good equipment? Han
When Siam, Bo Cai, Peng Tuo, Mao Ren, Gou Zhang and others saw such a good weapon, their eyes naturally shone, and they couldn't hide their greed.
However, they did not dare to accept it without Liu Bei's words. Everyone looked at Liu Bei. Liu Bei nodded slightly. Han Xian, Bocai, Peng Tuo, Mao Ren, Gou Zhang and others rushed forward in a swarm.
He put the sword on his waist and carried the sword on his back. He was selecting his own weapons in his hands. He just wished he could carry all the weapon racks back!
Seeing such a scene, everyone was holding back their laughter and did not dare to laugh. Once they laughed out loud, it would not only embarrass Zuo Aoran, but also make Liu Bei unable to get off the stage. However, everyone did not understand why Zuo Aoran was acting like this.
Being on good terms with Liu Bei, at best Liu Bei is just an imperial uncle in name! Seeing this, Liu Bei shook his head and smiled bitterly, thinking to himself: "Hey! Forget it! We won't borrow any more troops!"
Zuo Aoran knew that Liu Bei wanted to borrow troops from him, so this scene happened. Zuo Aoran's purpose was very simple, that is, to get closer to Liu Bei, not because Liu Bei would become an emperor in the future, but
It's because of Liu Bei's kindness!
Zuo Aoran looked at Liu Bei who was about to leave to rescue Xuzhou alone and smiled slightly: "Senior brother Xuande! I have something to say in person. Senior brother Bogui died early. Now there are only two brothers, you and me. I must have mistaken you for my little brother."
As outsiders, the two of us are senior fellow apprentices, but we are better than real brothers.
Ah! To put it bluntly, a younger brother is a rich man with many soldiers, generals, money, and food. In other words, the younger brother’s things are his elder brothers. You must be polite to the elder brothers. Although they cannot be born together, they can be blessed together.
Xiang, this is what Master Lu has always taught me, brother, do you understand?"
The fact that Liu Bei was able to drift across the sea and survive, and become the overlord of one side while fighting against the treacherous hero Cao Cao for many years, shows that Liu Bei is definitely not a mediocre person. There is something in Zuo Aoran's words, and Liu Bei naturally understands it clearly.
Meaning.
"Having a younger brother like Yunlong, your life is not in vain!" Liu Bei put his hand on Zuo Aoran's shoulder and said.
Zuo Aoran patted Liu Bei's big hand and said with a smile: "Me too!"
Liu Bei originally made up his mind not to borrow troops from Zuo Aoran, but Zuo Aoran's words convinced Liu Bei, and Liu Bei could see from his observation that Zuo Aoran's words were
The truth comes from the heart and is true, not rhetoric or perfunctory.
Zuo Aoran had already explained what he had said, but his senior brother seemed to have any concerns. Although he knew that Liu Bei's trip was to borrow troops, but he didn't speak up, would it be possible for him to take the initiative to speak out? Huh?! Or
Let him think about it for himself!
Zuo Aoran took Liu Bei back to the banquet table again, greeted everyone to sit down, and continued to drink and chat. Since Liu Bei sat down again, he no longer had the intention to drink, and his heart began to swirl. Every time he looked at Zuo Aoran,
Everyone wanted to ask for help, but they couldn't open their mouths every time.
Liu Bei was anxious, but there was one person who was more anxious than him, and that was naturally Zuo Aoran. Don't look at Zuo Aoran talking and laughing freely while pushing cups and changing cups, but he was already unbearably anxious, and even more so
I cursed in my heart: "Liu Bei, Liu Bei! Are you a real man? Why are you so hesitant about the most important thing?! Can't you just be more happy? It's like you avenged your brothers and raised all the troops of Shu to defeat Wu.
Where has all that arrogance gone!?!"
After a while, Liu Bei suddenly spoke and explained to Zuo Aoran the purpose of his visit, which was nothing more than what Cao Cao was doing. Zuo Aoran looked at Liu Bei and said, "Cao Cao has no enmity with my senior brother, so why bother to help others?"
Zuo Aoran's words immediately made Liu Bei see a person clearly. He was talking in a dazzling way before, but now he was talking like this. Liu Bei really hated himself for opening his mouth! But now that he had opened his mouth, he asked again
, but he could not lose his etiquette, so he said: "I have made a promise to you, and I dare not break my promise!"
Zuo Aoran pretended to think about it for a moment, then narrowed his eyes and asked with a smile: "Brother, how much do you want to borrow troops from me?"
"Borrow three to five thousand men and horses for now," Liu Bei said.
Zuo Aoran looked at Liu Bei and laughed, then turned to the side and said: "Jiang Yiqu!"
"Here!" Jiang Yiqu stepped out and said.
"Quickly go and order a thousand sentry soldiers, a thousand orderlies, a thousand search soldiers, a thousand medical soldiers, a thousand flying crossbowmen, eh? Then order five thousand infantry, five thousand flying cavalry, by the way, and in addition
Order 10,000 new troops, and then hand them over to my brother Liu Bei. All logistical supplies will be distributed within half a year!" Zuo Aoran ordered.
Jiang Yiqu hesitated for a moment, then clasped his fists and said, "Yes!"
When Liu Bei heard Zuo Aoran's first sentence of sentry soldiers, one thousand, his heart suddenly went cold. When he heard the orderly soldiers, one thousand, the search soldiers, one thousand, the medical soldiers, one thousand, and the flying crossbowmen, Liu Bei's heart suddenly dropped.
I almost yelled at Zuo Aoran, saying that if I borrow three or five thousand soldiers and horses, you will give me one thousand combat arms and four thousand non-combat arms. What do you mean? Why don't you keep doing it?
Just when Liu Bei's face became extremely ugly, Zuo Aoran's words "Five thousand infantry, five thousand flying cavalry, ten thousand new troops, enough food and grass for half a year" made Liu Bei's heart turn over.
, this is a total of 30,000 troops!
Who can borrow 30,000 troops at once? Sentries, servicemen, raiders, medical officers, cavalry, and infantry are all in place. It can be said that they are thoughtful! Except for my own brothers, no one would do this, right? I'm afraid that I
His biological brothers wouldn’t be so generous, would they?
Liu Bei's thoughts were a little messy. No, shock is more accurate. Liu Bei's brain seemed to have been hit hard, and he was hit hard several times. Liu Bei looked at Zuo Aoran and was speechless for a long time. Zhang Fei's mouth opened wide.
, the wine was all over his neck, Guan Yu even stood up, Han Xian, Bo Cai, Peng Tuo, Mao Ren, Gou Zhang and others were even more unbearable, let alone them, even the civil and military officers under Zuo Aoran
They are also very puzzled, what is happening to their lord? Why is he so generous? It's not like this to win over Liu Bei, right? Ordinary small favors are enough, but what kind of song is this today? What is the lord's gourd?
