But it was said that Ji Ling ran back to Liangcheng with the remnants of the defeated general, Qiao Rui greeted him, and exclaimed: "Why is General Ji like this? ”

Ji Lingnai said: "In the middle of the plan, Zhang Fei led the army out and deceived him as a deputy general, so he was broken. ”

Qiao Rui sighed for a while, and when she looked at it, she asked, "Where is Li Feng?" ”

Ji Ling's old face was hot, and he sighed: "I was surrounded by Zhang Fei, but fortunately I was saved by General Li, but now I don't know how life and death are." ”

Both of them were sullen. A few days later, I suddenly heard that Li Feng had descended, and took Zhang Fei to connect the two cities of Siwu and Xiaxiang. Once these two counties are lost, Liangcheng will become a lonely city. As soon as the two discussed, it would be useless to defend this city again, so it was better to retreat to Xiapi and make plans. So Ji Ling and Qiao Rui abandoned Liangcheng and walked down.

Zhang Fei sent an envoy to Yan Yan, the two of them were one east and one west, echoing from afar, connecting Quyang, Huaipu, Weixian, Huaiyin Zhucheng, and for a while, Jianghuai shook.

Cheng Pu collected Pengcheng's soldiers, went to Runan and Sun Jian to join together and attacked Lujiang, Pengcheng was empty, so Liu Bei led the Chinese army into Pengcheng. Peng Cheng was already in a mess at this time. The Peiguo War lasted for several days, and many people were displaced, and many people flocked to Pengcheng. As a result, when Fang arrived in Pengcheng, Pengcheng Xiang Chengpu led his troops to run away again, leaving only countless empty cities.

So those who killed each other, those who waited for Mu Ran to die, those who gathered as bandits, those who were violent corpses, and all kinds of tragic scenes in the world were displayed in front of Liu Bei's eyes one by one.

Although it is in troubled times, Qingzhou has not been in such a situation for a long, long time. Liu Bei sighed all the way along the way. So he ordered Liu Ke and Sha Mo to lead the lieutenants to divide the troops to suppress and kill the bandits in the country, and asked Lu Min, Cui Yan, Zhang Zhao and others to prepare food to help the poor and orphans.

Because they saw that Liu Bei's soldiers did not kill indiscriminately, but only punished those who were chaotic, the exiles followed Liu Beijun all the way. Liu Bei didn't care, and kept ordering his subordinates to work along the way.

Not long after, Zhang Zhao came to see: "Lord, there is not enough manpower." "This way, it is to quell the chaos and to provide disaster relief, Liu Bei's Chinese army does not have many people, and if this is scattered, there will be no one around. Now Liu Bei asked them to bury the bones along the way, where can they be busy.

Liu Bei said: "There is a shortage of manpower in the army, so I went to requisition the displaced people. The corpses must be burned and buried deep to prevent diseases. "Liu Bei has a very tight grasp of the health situation in this era. Because if you are not strict, you may not know one day, and suddenly the plague will start to rage. With the level of hygiene in this era, once a plague broke out, the scale would not be small. At that time, the countryside will be everywhere like ghost mounds.

Zhang Zhao also knew that exposing the corpse in the wild could easily cause a pandemic. So he obeyed the command and left. The homeless people followed Liu Beijun, eating and drinking all the way, and suddenly, a captain led a group of people to the homeless team. Said: "The lord has a life, recruit young and strong, and recruit those who are full of esophagus." ”

As soon as the words fell, a group of people rushed to the captain and shouted that they would apply. For fear of being left behind. The lieutenant took half a step back, pulled out half of his waist knife, and shouted: "Line up!" The reckless slash! ”

Under the watchful eye of the sergeants, the homeless people suppressed their impulses and obediently lined up to apply. The school captain ordered the scribes to be selected one by one, and 800 young people were recruited. So they were divided into two battalions, and the envoys received the orders of the audience Zhang Zhao and went to dig a pit and bury the corpse.

When it was time to eat, Qingzhuang had a big belly, remembering the words of the previous lieutenant who was full, and he knew that it was true, so he was moved by joy and thanked Liu Yuanjun for his life.

This group of people has work to do, they can eat enough, and they can save some money for their families. There was no other thought, and he honestly worked with Liu Bei's army.

After being busy for almost a month, Liu Bei clarified the entire Peng Chengguo. Those who should be killed have almost been killed, and those who should be appeased have been appeased. The corpses on the road were also cleaned up. The whole Pengcheng regained a little bit of vitality. So Liu Bei expressed Zhang Zhao as the prime minister of Peng Cheng, entrusted him with political affairs in the country, and made Liu Kebing to be a wide range of relatives and keep an eye on Peiguo's every move.

Peiguo was basically in chaos, and Yuan Zhong's troops of Lu County defeated Pei County and took Xiang County away, but they were beaten by Pengcheng Xiang Cheng Pu with a rod. Cheng Pu led his troops to Runan and Sun Jian's soldiers, leaving Pei Xiang Shu Shao alone to maintain it, with an old and weak army to resist Cao Cao.

Yuan Shu lost his division and lost his land in the territory, and fought again and again, so he sent people to Shu Shao to ask for food. Shu Shao saw that the people of Peiguo were out of chaos, and his heart said that instead of giving food to Yuan Shu to let him fight an impossible battle, or if Peiguo was not guaranteed, it was better to distribute the food to the people to live people. So he didn't obey Yuan Shu's order, but gave tens of thousands of grains to the people.

Yuan Shu was furious when he heard this, and the prisoner car went to Shouchun and beheaded him. Asked Shu Shao if he had anything else to say, Shu Shao said: "I know that I will die, so I am the ear." It is better to save the lives of one person and save the people from misery. ”

Yuan Shu listened, personally relieved Shu Shao's prisoner, took his hand and sighed: "Zhong Ying, I want to enjoy the world's fame alone, not with me?" So he forgave Shu Shao's sin and left Shouchun. He also made the general Zhang Xun lead his troops to defend the southern part of Peiguo.

Liu Bei was in Pengcheng, and the political affairs were entrusted to Zhang Zhao, and Lu Min was asked to post notices in the country to seek the Magi. Someone saw Liu Bei's recruitment list, and remembered what he had seen and heard along the way, and he was sincerely impressed, and said: "Liu Xuande, the true lord is also." So he went to Liu Bei's mansion.

Liu Bei heard that someone was coming to vote and went out to greet him. I saw that under the leadership of his own soldiers, a big man was walking into the house. But he saw that the man was dressed in a green robe and tied with a leather belt around his waist. Thick eyebrows and big eyes, yellow face and slight beard, walking step by step. Liu Bei secretly praised that this person is full of energy and must be a mighty man.

I saw that the big man saw Liu Bei, hugged his fists from afar, bent down, and said in a loud voice: "Runan Chen to Chen Shuzhi, I have long admired the name of Liu Yuanjun, and I have come to defect." ”

Liu Bei sighed in his heart, did Chen finally appear. So he hurriedly stepped forward and helped him up. Holding his arms and saying: "I intend to correct the world, support the Han family, and uncle to the true righteousness." With the help of uncles, why worry about the great cause? ”

Although Chen Zhi promised to be very human, Liu Bei's famous men were like clouds and fierce generals at this time, and he was so courteous to Liu Bei that his heart was surging and he was grateful. Thinking about it, I have heard for a long time that Corporal Liu Xuande is virtuous, generous to others, and his words are true.

Liu Bei in history, when it comes to character and private morality, is really admired by people all over the world. He fought all his life and was displaced, but he never had a record of slaughtering cities and killing prisoners, on the other hand, Cao Cao and other princes killed people and set fires as commonplace. And what Liu Bei insisted on all his life is: Today refers to me as a person of fire and water, Cao Cao also, I am in a hurry, and I am lenient; with violence, I with benevolence; with me, I with loyalty, every time I go against him, things can be heard. Liu Bei passed away, leaving his son not how to govern the country and how to govern and employ people. just entrusted Gu to Zhuge Liang, and then warned his son: Don't take evil as small, don't take good as small, but be virtuous and virtuous, and be able to obey others. Such a person, his glorious character has been admired by future generations for thousands of years. And now Liu Bei has long planned to do better.

In history, Liu Bei liked to lie in the same bed with people at every turn to discuss state affairs. Now Liu Bei also likes it, anyway, he slept in the dormitory for many years when he was studying, whether it was the bunk or the Chase bunk, he slept in it. I don't mind reminiscing about my life back then. So Xun Yu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, etc., have all slept with Liu Bei more than once, and slept on their feet.

Today, Liu Bei treated Chen Zhi with courtesy, and entered the court with his arms, Chen Zhi saw that Liu Bei was so kind to him, and he immediately had the heart to die.

Liu Bei also looked at this general who had commanded his own white soldiers in history. Ji Han Fuchen praised the southern expedition, the expedition to the west Zhongke, the selection of soldiers, and the fierce generals. Such a fierce future investment that is only inferior to Zhao Yun is called how Liu Bei doesn't like it.

Now his territory is getting bigger and bigger, and it's time to need manpower. That night, Liu Bei held a banquet to introduce Chen to the ministers under his tent.
