Chapter 16 Chapter 16 The Horse Stealer

The next day, Chen Gui was lying still on the sick bed again, thinking about the dangers in the world, he really felt that Liu Bei was in Xiaopei, in a dangerous situation. "Lü Bu is the front door tiger, Yuan Shu is the back door wolf. Caught between these two, one of them will definitely eat him at any time." Chen Gui was very worried, so he wrote and revised a book on the sick bed, and sent someone to send it to Lu Bu.Offered in the letter: The old man has heard recently that Yuan Shu is holding the jade seal in his hand, and he pretends to be the emperor every day. The big rebellion is clear.

It was fortunate that I postponed sending my daughter through the door before.It is advisable to send troops quickly, tie up the envoys on the way, and escort them to the court of Xudu to make clear the obedience. Cao Cao will remember your contribution.You should have the strength of the officers and soldiers, use Cao Cao's soldiers as the left wing, and Liu Xuande as the right wing, and crusade against the rebels. Now is the time. Promoting the fame of the world and becoming a great plan for a generation is today.Now or never. "What are you thinking about..." His wife Yan looked over Lu Bu's shoulder and read Chen Gui's letter together.

"Oh, what Chen Gui said has some truth, so I'm thinking about what to do." "You were moved by the opinion of a dying patient, are you going to give up the hard-won marriage?!" "How is the daughter?" "Crying. Poor!" "It's difficult." While muttering, Lu Bu walked towards the Political Affairs Pavilion where the officials gathered. For some reason, the officials were talking there. Asked the courtiers to inquire, and came back to report: "Everyone is discussing that Liu Bei of Xiaopei has bought a lot of horses from somewhere."

Lu Bu grinned and said, "A military general buys horses for emergencies, so you don't have to stare and talk about them. I also want to recruit good horses. I have sent Song Xian and others to Shandong a few days ago. They should also I'm home." The third day after that. Song Xian and other officials who were on a business trip to Shandong to buy horses returned to the city with dull expressions, as if possessed by a fox. "Have you collected a large number of military horses? Hurry up and bring five or six fine horses for me to see!" Lu Bu said. "I'm so sorry!" The officials replied, fearing that he would get angry, knocking their heads on the ground. "The night before yesterday, we were driving 300 horses through Xiaopei's realm. A group of robbers appeared and took away more than 200 horses... I have been desperately looking for their whereabouts yesterday and today, but the bandits and horses have disappeared completely. I had no choice but to bring back the remaining horses first."

"What?! You mean that more than two hundred good horses were robbed by a group of robbers?!" As he spoke, blue veins appeared on Lu Bu's forehead. "Useless stuff! How do you usually get your salary?!" Lu Bu held Song Xian and the others accountable in a rough voice, "The robbers robbed so many precious military horses, and they all ran back shamelessly. How can there be such an official?! Seeing robbers arrested on the spot, this is your job!" "You should be angry." Song Xianfu explained in front of the enraged Lion King, "But anyway, those bandits are not ordinary bandits. They are all strong men with their faces covered. One of them The boss was very tall, he picked us up and threw us like children, we couldn't get close to him, there was nothing we could do. Especially their actions were terribly fast and orderly. Just after taking our horse, the boss gave an order The robbers whipped the horses and fled away like lightning... It was so different that we found it incredible, so we quietly checked and found that we were powerless to deal with them. Those masked robbers were actually Xiaopei Liu Xuande's foster brother Zhang Fei and his subordinates!"

"What?! It turned out to be Zhang Fei..." Lu Bu's anger turned to Xiao Pei, but he still had some doubts. "Are you sure? It must be Zhang Fei, right?" "Absolutely!" "Hmph!" Lu Bu gritted his teeth, stood up suddenly from his seat, and roared, "I can't take it anymore!" All the generals in the city were called immediately.Lu Bu stood there, and when he saw everyone had arrived, he said, "Declare war on Liu Bei! Attack Xiao Pei immediately!" With an order, he also put on his armor, stepped on the red rabbit horse, led the army, and approached Xiaopei.

Xuande was shocked, he didn't understand, and asked, "Why?" But the situation is urgent and has to be guarded against. He also took his soldiers and horses, came outside the city, and shouted loudly: "General Lu! General Lu! Why are you in such a state? It's strange to use troops for no reason these days?" "Liu Bei, don't talk sweet words!" Lu Bu appeared and said, "The guy who will revenge you! I, Lu Bu, shot a halberd at the gate and saved your life in distress, but you let Zhang Fei steal more than two hundred of our army horses. You are Repaying me like this?! How unreasonable! Hypocrite! Do you want to think that the robber is collecting money for the righteous brother?!"

Huge insult. Xuande's face changed drastically, but after all, it was the first time in his life that he had received such a big insult, so he was very dazed and speechless.At this time, Zhang Fei came up from behind with a spear in hand, stood in front of Liu Bei, blocked Lu Bu, and said, "Stinger! What are two hundred army horses! I, Zhang Fei, snatched those horses. But you Dare to call me a robber, how can you let it go! If I am a robber, you are a dung thief!" "What, dung thief?!" Lu Bu was also stunned.There are all kinds of thieves in the world, but I have never heard of dung thieves.Zhang Fei's words were vicious.

"Isn't it?! You had nowhere to go and came to vote in Xuzhou. You were just a foreigner. Thanks to Brother Liu, you once occupied Xuzhou City. Minzhi, in this difficult time in the world, the whole family is incompetent and immoral, they can only eat shit. A person like you is not worthy to be called a national thief! You can only be called a dung thief! Do you understand, Lu Bu?!" At the moment when Zhang Fei's fighting spirit was about to be exhausted. "Bitch!" Lu Bu brushed his beard upside down, his hair stood upside down, and brandished Fang Tian's painted halberd, furious, and beat him.

Zhang Fei reined in his horse and stood up, fighting head-on, shouting angrily at the opponent's overturned halberd: "Hey——" After being teased, Lu Bu became more and more like a raging fire. He turned his halberd, pointed it at the horse's head, and shouted: "Zhuzi!" Zhang Fei also held out the Zhangba Snake Spear, his eyes were like torches, he went straight to Lu Bu, and said, "Hey, come on!" It can be called a great view of the world.Zhang Fei and Lu Bu are both examples of bravery that no one can beat in the contemporary era. However, although they have the same iron fist, they have very different personalities.Zhang Fei hated Lu Bu from the bottom of his heart.Seeing Lu Bu, even on a normal day when there was no disagreement, he would bristle with anger and arouse his fighting spirit.Similarly, when Lu Bu saw Zhang Fei's face, he would often have a nauseating feeling in his heart.

The two heroes who hated each other so much were able to face each other in the time and space of the battlefield. The fierceness of the battle was beyond words. Spears and halberds fought more than 200 times, the sweat dripped on the horse's back, the shouts resounded through the sky, the horseshoes dug up the dirt on the ground, the sun was about to set, but the winner was not determined. "Zhang Fei! Zhang Fei! Why didn't you withdraw?! Why didn't you obey the order of the elder brother?!" Guan Yu's voice sounded behind him. Zhang Fei came to his senses, looked around, he was the only one left on the battlefield in the twilight. The shadows of the enemy soldiers gathered far away on the retreat road.The grass mist is white and flutters in the field. "Hey—is it Guan Yu?" Zhang Fei replied, while still fighting Lu Bu.Sure enough, his own position was far away, and Jin retreated. "Come back quickly! Block the enemy and withdraw!" For Zhang Fei, Guan Yu killed a corner of the enemy army that surrounded Zhang Fei's retreat. Zhang Fei was a little flustered, and said: "Lu Bu, come back tomorrow!" After speaking, he flew away. Lu Bu scolded from behind.The figures of both sides have merged into the hazy night.As soon as Guan Yu saw Zhang Fei, he rushed over and whispered in his ear, "Brother is very angry." As soon as he retreated to the county seat, Liu Bei immediately called Zhang Fei over and asked, "It's your fault again! Where are the stolen horses now?!" "They are all chained to the front of the city." "Horses obtained by improper means cannot be tied up in Xuande's stable! Guan Yu, return all those horses to Lu Bu!" Guan Yu returned all the more than 200 horses to Lu Bu Village that night. As a result, Lu Bu's mood improved and he planned to retreat, but Chen Gong stepped in to remonstrate, "If you don't kill Xuande now, it will be a disaster in the future. Xuzhou people hope that they will leave you and return to him." Hearing this, Lu Bu feared and hated Xuande's morality and good deeds. "Yes, favors are my weakness." The whole day of the next day, there was no room for respite, and the attack continued, and the weak county was suddenly in danger. "What should I do?" Xuande asked left and right. "Since this is the case, it is helpless. You can abandon the city for the time being and go to Xudu, please Cao Cao who is in the center, wait for the opportunity to avenge today's revenge." Xuande followed him, and at three o'clock that night, he got rid of the shackles, took only his confidantes and a few people, and went away along the moonlight-white path.
