"Old Wei, don't you have a long memory? You just took a beating from General Zhang with his military stick, and you still dare to come and treat us to a drink?"
"Hey, you guys don't want to trick me and Lao Hou, let us try the military sticks, right? Let's make an agreement first, I will drink half a bucket, don't try to bluff me."
Wei Xujiang Hou Cheng and Song Xian made an appointment in their military tent and prepared food and wine.
Seeing the wine and meat on the table, Song Xian made a word: "Well, you know that you will pick up the Junjun's beef wine, and you will definitely eat more ... If General Zhang knows, it must be a military stick again
!”
"Huh! General Zhang, General Zhang! His father didn't dare to do this in front of us! What? Now you are afraid of that kid? Or are you impressed?" Wei Xu threw his chopsticks after hearing this.
Song Xian's temper couldn't stand it. He slapped the table and said: "Bah! Who is afraid of him? I just... respect the military order."
"Lü Bu, that white-eyed wolf, killed Inspector Ding and then surrendered us. Originally, we wanted to become rich and powerful under him, but now it seems that he, the flying general, is rich and powerful again, but he always treats us as outsiders...
"Wei Xu said.
Hearing Wei Xu talk about Lu Bu, Song Xian shrank his head in fright and whispered: "I haven't even drank this yet! Why are you talking nonsense?"
"What nonsense? Why don't people tell this truth? He Lu Bu... can he kill me with one arrow in Jiangdong?" Wei Xu raised his head and said.
"You sound so cowardly..." Song Xian muttered in a low voice.
"Who are you from?" Wei Xu glared.
Until this moment, Song Xian didn't feel anything strange - the three of them had similar personalities and often got together to arrange for Shangguan.
However, Hou Cheng, who was more sensitive, noticed something was wrong and felt that Wei Xu's words meant something, not just a complaint!
"Old Wei, what do you want to say?" Hou Cheng, who was a military commander but had a pale face, asked proactively.
After Wei Xu heard this, he calmed down his excitement and said in a low voice: "Lü Bu only had his cheap son in his heart. Not only did he leave us and go to Jiangdong, but he actually asked the two children to be ranked above us. Obviously, he didn't care.
We treat ourselves as one of our own, and I... have a real wealth that I want to share with my two worthy brothers!"
The three of them spent most of the night in the military tent, and when Hou Cheng and Song Xian left, the food and wine on the table rarely went down.
But after everyone returned to camp, Song Xian was tossing and turning, unable to sleep, feeling nervous and confused.
Wei Xu showed him a Yangguan Avenue - after the matter was completed, it would not be a problem to be granted the title of Marquis of Guannei!
As for whether he would be retaliated by Lu Bu? Although Lu Bu was strong, Song Xian felt that after Yuan Shu captured Xuzhou, he would be enough to crush Lu Bu... and Bai Tu who were still in Jiangdong!
In the past, Song Xian would have just gritted his teeth and done it, but now...
When Song Xian turned over, he dreamed that Lu Bu was attacking him with a halberd. He was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. When he turned over again, he saw Bai Tu again in a daze and scolded him for being stupid and daring to make his own decisions.
It was almost dawn, and Song Xian didn't fall asleep either!
Finally, he remembered the "good method" that Bai Tu taught him, and reorganized his thoughts - Bai Tu said that he was too stupid and could easily be led by others. With his IQ, it would be better to do it when he was in trouble.
Go against your own instincts...
"Wei Xu said he wants to share the credit with us? No! He is not sure. As long as Zhang Liao and Gao Shun stay behind, he will be finished."
"Wei Xu said that there are noble families in Pengcheng who are cooperating. If Liu Bei can't defend it, we will be defeated in Xiaopei? No! There are only two second-rate noble families who are colluding with him now, so it may not be possible. And once they try to attract other noble families, everything will be lost.
One...are there any among them who are as wise as me?"
"Wei Xu said that Yuan Shu controlled half of the country at that time, and the world belonged to the Yuan family. There was no need to fear Lu Bu's revenge. Hiss... that's not right! Even if Lu Bu couldn't do it, Bai Tu... ahem, Military Master Bai has a 'scholarship for eternity'.
With the title of 'Master of Mongolian Studies', even if the world belongs to the Yuan family, he can still be regarded as a noble person. When the time comes, I..."
"And if I go to Zhang Liao and sell them... I will be ridden by Zhang Liao and Gao Shun for the rest of my life, and will be used as cannon fodder for Lu Bu? No! Commander Bai... should be said to be the lord now, but he appointed me at the beginning.
It’s what I wanted to do as Su Wei! When the time comes...hey!"
Song Xian couldn't sleep at all, so he sat up and called a soldier in.
When the soldier saw Song Xian with red eyes, he was startled and asked in a panic: "General, what's wrong with you?"
"Come here." Song Xian looked at him breathlessly.
Although he was frightened by the big bald head, he still walked over loyally because he was a soldier.
At this moment, Song Xian suddenly held him down, took out a razor and said, "Don't move!"
After a while, a man wearing a soldier's uniform came out, leaving only a bald figure sitting with his back under the candlelight!
That's right, Song Xian shaved the head of his own soldier, then dipped his hair in it, secretly returned to Xiaopei from the military camp, and came to Zhang Liao's military tent at dawn.
"General Song, what are you doing?" Zhang Liao looked at Song Xian, who had changed from a bald head to a bald man, in confusion.
Except for Gao Shun and Hao Meng, who had a good relationship, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and other Bingzhou generals had always had a so-so relationship, and there was no commensurate relationship.
"General Zhang, I have something confidential to report." Song Xian said seriously.
When Zhang Liao saw this posture, he also vaguely guessed it, and said with the same solemn expression: "General Song, please speak!"
Little did he know that at this time, in Xuzhou City, also known as Pengcheng, Cao Bao also appeared in casual clothes in the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion, shocking Liu Bei.
"What's wrong, Mr. Cao? Even though it's still June, it's still a bit cold in the morning!" Liu Bei saw Cao Bao coming in only a single linen clothes and quickly took off his own shawl.
"My lord, Bao Bao has something important to tell you." Cao Bao looked at Liu Bei, hesitated for a moment, and then sighed.
Liu Bei was also startled, and then his face showed an undisguised joy. This was the first time that Cao Bao called him "Lord".
Three days later, in the middle of the night, it happened that the sky was unfavorable and it was dark and moonless.
A fire suddenly broke out in Pengcheng, and in the area around the Mufu Mansion and the mansions of major aristocratic families in the north of the city. The fire came very strangely. Several fires broke out at the same time, and people shouted "Water!" There were many people busy putting out the fire, but the fire was not small.
!
At the same time, Ji Ling also reacted quickly and immediately led his troops to the west and began to attack the city late at night...
Pengcheng was in chaos for a while, but by daybreak, the fire in the city had been extinguished, but the Ji Ling army attacking the city outside the city had been weak and unable to shake the defenders at all. It seemed that the thunder was loud and the raindrops were light!
Liu Bei, who was directing the battle on the tower, couldn't help but exclaimed in shock: "No! Ji Ling's target is Xiaopei!"
Seeing Liu Bei's "shocked" look, Xu Tong couldn't help but chuckle, while Cao Bao glanced at him inadvertently, his expression unchanged at all...
