"Master, someone wants to see you"

Liu Bei, who was watching the martial arts competition between Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in the courtyard, turned around and asked, "Who is it?" after hearing the butler's report.

"The person who came here claimed to be Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou."

When he heard his name, Liu Bei felt a little surprised, but he still motioned to the butler to take him to the living room.

"Liu Dai meets with General Zuo"

"President Liu came to visit his humble abode. He was prepared to welcome you at a distance, but I hope you will bear with him."

"Hey, General Liu said this to hurt me."

…

After a while of greetings, under the command of Liu Bei, Liu Dai and the four of them were divided into two columns. Liu Bei looked at him and asked, "I don't know, sir, you came to see me personally this time, but what's the important matter?"

"To be honest, something happened in Yanzhou, and I have been occupied by Cao Cao."

After Liu Dai finished speaking, Liu Bei couldn't sit still anymore and quickly stood up and asked, "What's going on?"

Then Liu Dai recounted everything from the Taishan bandits' invasion to New Year's Eve, which made Liu Bei angrier the more he listened.

"When I was desperate, I took my brother and two close generals to seek refuge with the general. I hoped that the general would take us in for the sake of our fellow clan members."

Liu Dai compassionately clasped his fists and saluted, making a request. When Liu Bei saw this, he immediately replied: "Brother, since you are so frank with Bei, I can't hide it. To be honest, I am now looking for like-minded people everywhere. I will start again."

Integrate a military force and find a way to rescue the emperor from Jizhou and return to the capital!"

Liu Bei was sincere, but Liu Dai was confused and puzzled.

"Is the emperor suffering physical pain here now?"

"No, the emperor has not received any flesh wounds, and he can even enjoy the treatment of an emperor every day. However, the emperor has to be restricted in everything he does. Did you know? It has been five months since the emperor came here for his first visit out of the palace.

But five days ago, for a long time before, every time the emperor made this request, Yuan Shao used various reasons to deny it. I am very worried that as time goes by, Yuan Shao will..."

Liu Bei did not continue, but the obedient Liu Dai and others understood what he meant. Even if Yuan Shao is a loyal minister, if his power is too great and too inflated, he cannot rule out the possibility of becoming Huo Guang or even Wang Mang.

"How many troops does Yuan Shao have now? How many troops does General Liu have?"

"To be honest, brother Gongshan, when Yuan Shao was the governor of Bohai, he had an army of 150,000. Now he has the entire Jizhou, and he has also absorbed the army that Han Fu was unable to take with him when he fled. I am afraid that the number now exceeds 200,000.

.As for me, there are only 200 people available now. Although I have spent all my wealth and sent people out to recruit troops, how many can be recruited depends entirely on God's will."

After Liu Bei talked about the strength gap between himself and Yuan Shao, the faces of Liu Dai and the four others became as bitter as eating sour oranges.

"Such a gap...then if the four of us come over, wouldn't it be a drop in the bucket?"

"No, if you want to help the Han Dynasty, you need to gather all the available forces. Even if only four of Brother Gongshan come, they are still extremely important to Bei!"

Liu Bei first expressed the importance of Liu Dai and others, paused, turned to a very serious look, and asked Liu Dai and the others, "Brother Gongshan, everyone, the Fuhan Room will be a difficult road.

This choice means becoming enemies with all the princes in the world. I hope you can think clearly and don't force yourself. If you no longer want to participate in the struggle, I can give you money to find a peaceful place and live a good life."

Faced with Liu Bei's kindness, the four of them looked at each other. Before Liu Dai could respond, his brother Liu Yao asked, "General Liu, do you think a paradise still exists in this world today?"

"I don't know, but if it doesn't exist, then I will use my still-powerful hands to try my best to create it!" It was a very difficult question, but Liu Bei didn't hesitate at all and quickly and firmly answered his question.

The answer made the other person look at him with a look of admiration in his eyes.

"Hahaha~ General Liu is a few years younger than my two brothers, but his ideological consciousness has already surpassed us by nine levels."

"Brother Zhengli is so flattering, it's really going to hurt Liu Bei." Faced with the praise, Liu Bei, who had shown a tough face just now, did not hold back. He was begging slightly, asking the other party to stop flattering him, because he couldn't bear it.

After some bragging, Liu Dai, who had not expressed his position, coughed, signaled everyone to calm down, and looked at Liu Bei seriously, "General Liu, Liu Bei, Cao Cao's seizure of our prefecture and county is enough to make me vomit three liters of blood. I admit that I have come to defect."

With you, I want to ask for a shelter, and I can use you and even the emperor to kill Cao Cao and take back Yanzhou in the future! I know that I am not a hero, but I will not watch the old Liu family fall.

Next, on this matter, I must help you, and you don’t need to thank me. This is not only for the big man, but also for myself. It doesn’t matter whether you call me selfish or self-interested, but this is the purpose of my coming here."

Affected by the atmosphere, Liu Dai spoke his mind without hesitation. Liu Yao, Yu Jin, Bao Xin and even Liu Bei were a little dumbfounded. Maybe they didn't expect Liu Dai to be so sincere, right? You always have to surrender to others.

First say some high-sounding good words to fool them, and then reveal your true purpose bit by bit depending on the situation. This is the normal process.

After being stunned for a moment, Liu Bei solemnly saluted him, "Thank you very much, brother, for being willing to lend a helping hand. I would like to express my gratitude here!"

Liu Dai is sincere. Liu Bei is also quite stubborn. He just said no thanks and turned around to nod and lower his eyebrows.

"Do you have a place to live now? The guest rooms in this mansion are still empty. If you don't mind, you can stay here temporarily. It will be close and it will be easier to discuss important matters in the future."

Liu Bei respectfully extended an invitation to the four of them, but there was no need to go to such trouble. After all, Yu Jin and the other three were following Liu Dai. As long as the speaker nodded, they would definitely stay.

"That's natural. Now that I have nowhere to go, I originally planned to ask you to take me in. Now that you have taken the initiative, you have left me a piece of thin noodles."

"Then I will take you to the guest room to take a look first. If there is anything missing, just tell me and I will ask the servants to buy it."

"I'm sorry, please Xuande to lead the way."

After saying "Please follow me", the head of the family, Liu Bei, walked in front to lead the way, leading Liu Dai and the four of them to the back. When they passed through the corridor and came to the yard, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu had already changed from the previous weapon sparring to

Nowadays, I only see wrestling

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

The two hugged each other's waists, their faces were red from suppressing it, and their veins were bulging. It was obvious that they were not conserving their strength, but they could only see their bodies spinning slowly in circles, showing a 50-50 split.

Liu Dai, who saw the two of them, asked, "Oh? I remember these two heroes are your adopted brothers, right?"

"Exactly, there is no chance to go to the battlefield these days. The two of them are a little bored with their free time, so they choose to compete here. But I don't want you to read the joke, so please bear with me."

Liu Bei was a little embarrassed, but Liu Dai didn't agree with this idea at all. "Xuande's words are too much. What's a joke? I still remember clearly what happened last year. First, your second brother warmed the wine and killed Hua Xiong;

Later, three of your brothers and another person defeated the famous general Lu Bu. Such achievements are so dazzling!"

Liu Dai talked excitedly about his thoughts and thoughts mixed with memories. Liu Bei was very embarrassed when he praised her, so he could only quickly change the topic and lead them forward.

"Yuncheng, Wen Ze, if you don't follow me quickly, I will leave you behind." Seeing Yu Jin and others standing there, Liu Dai shouted to them, but they had no intention of following them.

"Please go ahead, my lord, I have something to do."

"Huh? This is someone else's house now. Don't think about causing trouble." Liu Dai once again motioned for the two of them to follow, but they still didn't move. Seeing this, Liu Dai was a little unhappy and wanted to call them again.

However, they were dragged away by Liu Bei. The two people who were stuck in the same place kept staring at the two brothers Guan and Zhang until they were discovered.

"Who are you two?"

"I'm Bao Xin, this is Yu Jin, we are subordinates of Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou"

"Oh, then why do you keep staring at me and my second brother? Are you here to seek revenge?"

"No, no, it's just that the two of us often hear my master talk about our heroic deeds. We happened to meet today, so I want to ask for some advice. I wonder if I have some free time at the moment?"

After Bao Xin asked politely, Zhang Fei laughed loudly and said, "Okay! My second brother and I are panicking. You came at the right time. Do you want to compete with swords, guns, sticks, or fists and kicks?"

"You two just competed, it's better to take a rest first..." Before Yu Jin could finish his well-intentioned words, Zhang Fei interrupted directly, "Well, that was just a warm-up, it's harmless. Come on, I'm old Zhang

It’s ready!”

Zhang Fei hammered his chest and made an impatient sound. Guan Yu behind him stroked his beard and nodded slightly.

Seeing that neither of them cared about the other party, what did Bao and Yu have to worry about? With a big stride, they both came to the courtyard and became the challengers.

Seeing them pick up long spears, long knives, and Guan, Zhang did not show any pretense. He picked up the Qinglong Dao, Zhangba Spear and Bao Xin next to him. Yu Jin responded. The two parties circled the courtyard and slowly moved in opposite directions until

After leaving enough space in the middle to display martial arts...

"Eaaah!"

Bao Xin's loud shout was like an instruction. The four people's hands moved at the same time. In just a moment, there were two collision sounds, followed by "ding-dong" sounds one after another, and they were playing with weapons.

The four people come and go, intertwining in every possible way, just like dancing butterflies, emitting light and shining under the sun.
