444. The Heroes Gather at Hulao Pass
"Brother Xuande, how do you look at our army?"
Gongsun Zan sat upright on the horse, holding a horse whip in his hand, pointing at the neatly lined up cavalry formation in front of him.
Although he seemed to be asking Liu Bei beside him, the heroic expression clearly was "seeking praise".
Liu Bei rode his horse and took a few steps closer, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and one person behind him followed and stood behind them.
"Brother Bo Gui's 'Bai Horse Yicong' is a powerful army in the world. Even if I am in the remote south, I have heard of it. Now I have seen it with my own eyes, just from this speed of assembly, extraordinary riding skills can be seen. Then Dong Zhuo is hiding in the strong city of the pass. If he really sets up a formation and fights, he will definitely not be the opponent of the northern men under Brother Bo Gui."
Both are famous cavalry units in the world, the Xiliang cavalry has always been used to compare with the northern cavalry under Gongsun Zan. The reason why he set up this team was that he was competing. Now that he heard Liu Bei praise his subordinates and belittle the Xiliang cavalry, although Gongsun Zan did not say it, he was already very proud and was about to be happy.
After hearing this, Gongsun Zan clearly praised the carriage, but quickly suppressed his joy and said modestly:
"Xuande is too good. The horses of the people of Xiliang have Western Regions, which have been mixed with Western blood. I don't know how many generations it has been to train. The breeds are tall and strong, far more powerful than the Central Plains horses. Now it has incorporated many horse-sided people, so it is naturally unique and must not be underestimated."
Liu Bei quickly made a teaching letter and replied with his fist, "Brother Bo Gui knows best, and he is far from that. In the battle of Hulao Pass, my three brothers waved flags and shouted for Brother Bo Gui, helping Brother Bo Gui defeat the enemy in one fell swoop, and the white horse will become famous all over the world."
Gongsun Zan laughed loudly when he heard this, and his mood became more and more prosperous for a moment.
"Don't worry, Xuande, I think that the two virtuous brothers are all heroes. This time, the soldiers entered Hulao Pass. With the courage of your three brothers, you will definitely have a chance to become famous in one fell swoop."
When Liu Bei heard this, he hurriedly bowed and thanked him. But when he bowed and bowed, he heard Gongsun Zan ask again:
"I just heard that Xuande, you have two righteous brothers, have sworn brothers, but I don't know which talent this little brother is. Why didn't Xuande introduce it to Brother Wei?"
Liu Bei was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't want the man to dress up as his escort, but he was still recognized by someone. Fortunately, she had a solution before she reacted quickly enough, and immediately laughed:
"This is just my family member. This time I came to find me, first, I brought a letter from the village to tell me about something, and second, the boss is not young but has no chance to start a family and start a business, so I came to the army to find a living..."
Liu Bei looked embarrassed and felt embarrassed, and performed the gentle elder's attitude of the gentle elder who had exposed his embarrassment.
When Gongsun Zan heard that he was just a free meal and drink, he no longer cared about it. He took his eyes back and put it back in the army that was preparing, but he didn't want to hear that Lu Xiao was cursing in his heart.
That's right, that person is no one else. He was the one who disappeared after the battle in Luoyang, but now he has changed his appearance and runs to Lu Xiao next to Liu Bei!
…………
That day, Lu Xiao escaped from Luoyang Palace City, but did not leave the city directly. Instead, he searched for a dry well and hid for a day. The next day he took advantage of the night to leave the place of right and wrong.
This period of time also made him thoroughly clarify his thoughts. The plan to alert the snake was completed. Dong Zhuo is likely to no longer look down on the jade seal. Even if Jeff and Roy targeted Sun Jian, the ultimate beneficiary, would never get what they wanted. After careful consideration, he finally chose to come to the Kanto Alliance Army camp and met the three brothers Liu Bei who were also new to him.
As the emperor's secret envoy.
This is why Liu Bei said that he was sent by his hometown, because to some extent, this is not a lie.
Lu Xiao had a long chat with the little emperor that day. When he returned the contract, he brought a "soccer" back. It was not an important thing, but a private seal of the late emperor.
The jade seal is a country's important weapon, and of course it cannot be used as a proof of fake identity. This private seal is different. With Liu Bei's ability to observe people, if he pretends to be an ordinary identity, he will definitely expose it. But now he has a "token" in his hand and is the royal secret envoy that the "Emperor Uncle" cares about the most. Naturally, in a few words, he successfully penetrated into the three brothers and kept it temporarily.
According to Lu Xiao, he, the secret envoy, would stay for this period of time, observe the daily life of the "Emperor Uncle" from the side, and report back to the young emperor whether to issue an order to verify the identity of the emperor.
Liu Bei was naturally happy. Even if he had any doubts, he would not suspect that there would be scammers who fell in love with their three "poor and white" brothers.
After a long conversation, the four of them decided to go together and sneak into Gongsun Zan's camp to eat him for a few days before talking about it.
So, today's scene came about.
…………
Two days later, Hulao Pass.
As soon as Lu Xiao arrived, he saw a... no, a group of people who were beyond his expectations.
The first one is Sun Jian, the final "winner" of the imperial seal in the original script!
When Lu Xiao saw him, the tiger general, who was in his prime, visited the new coalition camp in front of Hulao Pass under the guidance of an old man with a smile on his face.
And that old man was the governor of Xuzhou, the good old man who made "three transfers to Xuzhou" in the Romance - Tao Qian and Tao Gongzu.
When Liu Bei heard about this person's identity, Lu Xiao's eyes at the emperor's uncle in front of him were a bit meaningful, which made him feel irritated and he didn't know what was going on.
In fact, Tao Qian and Sun Jian are old acquaintances. They worked together for a while when Huangfu Song conquered the Western Qiang, which was earlier than when they met Liu Bei.
Although Tao Qian was talented and slutty at a young age, he was arrogant after becoming an official. Although he was talented, he was not among the first-class people. Therefore, like Sun Jian, he was not in the eyes of aristocratic families. Of course, this is not unrelated to the fact that he had few talents under his command and was mostly lucky to advance. This is the sorrow of the literati. Sun Jian was at least following his loyal military subordinates. Even if he died, these people could leave their loyalty and care to his next generation.
However, Tao Qian was extremely embarrassed and could only rely on himself.
Unlike Sun Jian who always drew his sword in anger when facing insults, Tao Qian only used a "soft knife" to deal with scholars, but he was concerned about military officials.
Now that he has raised an army to attack Dong, he belongs to Yuan Shu. When Tao Qian heard that Sun Jian came, he did not neglect, so he volunteered to receive him and led him to visit the new camp of the Kanto Alliance Army. At the same time, he also wanted to introduce Sun Jian to the current battle situation at Hulao Pass, and then put some private goods in it, and put on small shoes for those whom he looked down upon.
Lu Xiao admired the "knowing to advance and retreat" of the governor of Xuzhou very much. He just didn't know if one of the three of them took away the jade seal in this reincarnation world, would Sun Jian have a chance to get a lot of arrows? Where will the sunset of the Han Dynasty go...
