After struggling for a long time in his heart, Liu Bei finally made up his mind and said: "Gongsun Bogui and I, Liu Bei, are brothers. I used to be in Youzhou, and I often received the favor of my grandson. ”

"Brother Gongsun is in trouble today, how can I, Liu Bei, sit idly by? I have made up my mind, and I will do my best to attack Yuan Shao, so that I can do the plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao. ”

Only at this time did Liu Bei's courage be revealed.

In fact, he raised troops to attack Yuan Shao this time, and he was completely unconfident that he would be able to achieve victory, and he might even get into trouble and lose Yuzhou.

However, Jian Yong's words moved him. Choosing between a chicken-ribbed Yuzhou and fame, he would rather choose the latter. And these are also Liu Bei's outstanding features.

Just as in history, he abandoned the foundation of Pingyuan County and led his troops to Qingzhou to rescue Kong Rong. At that time, Liu Bei not only got rid of the constraints of Gongsun Zhan, but also got a good reputation.

It was precisely because of that courageous action that Liu Bei entered the eyes of the princes of the world. Before this, how many people in the world knew about Liu Bei?

Don't say anything about the Tiger Prison and the three British battles against Lu Bu, and don't say anything about the three brothers of Liu Bei who fought against the Yellow Turbans and made great achievements.

In real history, the princes crusaded against Dong Zhuo, and Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei did not participate at all. As for the crusade against the Yellow Turbans, the three Liu Bei brothers never even left Youzhou.

It can be said that before Liu Bei led the troops to rescue Kong Rong, the three brothers were completely uneducated.

This is also why, when Tai Shici went to ask for help, Liu Bei would be surprised and said: "Kong Beihai also knows that there is Liu Beihu in the world?" ”

Abandoning the foundation of the plains and raising an army to rescue Kong Rong became the first turning point in Liu Bei's life.

Rao is like this, because Kong Rong is not a powerful prince, and he can't even be called a prince. Therefore, even if Liu Bei at that time walked into the sight of the world because of the rescue of Kong Rong, it was still a little inconspicuous.

Liu Bei's second take-off, the thing that really impressed the princes of the world was that Liu Bei once again gave up his foundation and went to rescue Xuzhou.

Liu Bei has never had any friendship with Kong Rong and Tao Qian, but he can give up his family business and lead troops to the rescue for the sake of two people who have lived in life.

Perhaps in the eyes of some, this is undoubtedly an extremely stupid move. However, more people will feel that Liu Bei is a heroic man who is chivalrous and courageous, and he is a great hero who fights to save others.

It was the act of rescuing others twice that made Liu Bei really begin to rise and become a prince. Before that, he did not have the qualifications to become a prince at all.

In this era, history has changed due to the arrival of Wen Zhao.

Liu Bei did not rescue Kong Rong, although he wrote a letter to retire Cao Cao at that time, but Cao Cao was planned by Cao Cao and captured the entire Xuzhou by surprise, so that Tao Qian was killed.

As a result, Liu Bei's reputation now is undoubtedly much worse than in history.

Therefore, even though he now occupies Yuzhou, there are still only a handful of people who can use it. Moreover, because there are too few people in the territory, the power cannot be expanded at all.

On the other hand, the power of the other princes was expanding wildly. If Liu Bei was still in Yuzhou and was willing to act as a buffer for Wen Zhao to resist the other princes, he would be eliminated by this era sooner or later.

Therefore, Gongsun Zhan's request for help from him will become an opportunity for Liu Bei to take off.

Of course, only Liu Bei can grasp this opportunity. If it were someone else, they would either be afraid of Yuan Shao and dare not send troops, or they would just want to guard one acre and three points of land, and they would not want to forge ahead.

And Liu Bei, who is ambitious and capable, wants to take this opportunity to give it a go.

Sun Qian opened his mouth, but persuaded again: "It is not easy for the lord to get this foundation, please think twice." ”

Liu Bei said firmly: "Even if I lose this inheritance because of this, in order to rescue Brother Gongsun, I will never regret it." ”

When Jian Yong heard this, he couldn't help but smile on his face, only such a Liu Bei was worthy of him leaving everything behind to follow. Even though Liu Bei's strength was weak at this time, Jian Yong also believed that one day, Liu Bei would turn into a dragon and soar above the Nine Heavens.

Seeing that his lord had already made up his mind, Sun Gan immediately said: "If the lord really wants to send troops to attack Yuan Benchu, he must first recall the second general back to Yuzhou." ”

"And the attack on Yanzhou must be secret and unexpected. Otherwise, if Yuan Jun is prepared, I am afraid that it will be extremely difficult to capture Yanzhou. ”

Liu Bei thought so, and on the one hand, he ordered Zhang Fei to start secretly dispatching troops, and on the other hand, he asked people to go to Xie County to recall Guan Yu.

However, after Guan Wu's case was understood, Guan Yu did not want to continue to stay in Xie County, but was ready to rush to Yuzhou with Hu to meet Liu Bei and Zhang Fei.

When Guan Ping learned that his parents were leaving, he was immediately very depressed. It wasn't until he was reprimanded by Guan Yu that Guan Ping forcibly cheered up.

He also took advantage of this time to get together with his parents.

As for Wen Zhao, because there is no major incident in Guanzhong now, he also stayed in Xie County for a few more days.

On this day, Guan Yu was about to say goodbye to Wen Zhao and rushed to Yuzhou with the Hu family, when suddenly a fast horse rushed into Guanjia Village.

"General Guan, General Guan."

The cavalryman inquired about Guan Yu's residence and began to shout outside.

Guan Yu was packing up his things at home, and after hearing the shout, he immediately went to open the door. He saw the cavalryman and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The cavalryman who delivered the letter wiped a handful of sweat and said: "General Guan, the villain is a messenger under Liu Yuzhou's account, and he has come to deliver a letter to you on the order of the lord." ”

Guan Yu felt a pang in his heart when he heard this, according to his understanding of Liu Bei, if it wasn't for an emergency, he would never send someone across the border to deliver a letter to him.

"Send me the letter quickly."

The messenger didn't dare to slack off, hurriedly took out two letters, handed them to Guan Yu, and said: "This one is for General Guan, but this one is for the main bus and will be handed over to the general." ”

Guan Yu asked Guan Ping to entertain the messenger, and hurriedly opened the letter to himself.

I saw that the letter wrote: Gongsun Bogui is my brother, and now he is besieged by Yuan Benchu's troops in the belt side, and his life is only in the evening. Since Brother Bogui sent a letter asking for help, I will do my best to help him, and I hope that my brother will return quickly and wish me a hand.

Another letter, my brother can help me to hand it over to the general.

After reading the letter, Guan Yu's heart suddenly became heavy. As Liu Bei's right-hand man, he naturally understands his brother's plight very well.

Liu Bei seems to be the pastor of a state, but his strength is very weak. If you help Gongsun Zhan, you will inevitably become an enemy of Yuan Shao and cause trouble.

However, Guan Yu was originally a very righteous person, and not only was he not the slightest dissatisfied with Liu Bei's decision, but sincerely agreed.

"No matter what, I'll stay with my brother."

Guan Yu thought secretly in his heart.
