    "It's them. Have you found them?"

    "Sanlang responded to Cao Cao's call and led the army to leave Hedong not long ago. The people sent by Sanlang brought them back. They are all strange women. Lianxiang is quirky and cute, Meixiang is gentle and quiet, has a virtuous personality, and Lanxiang is literate.  Dali is proficient in piano skills. Yaner and they hit it off and are now good friends."

    "Huh? Why is there one person missing? Where is Tianxiang?"

    "Are you talking about the Tianxiang girl who is regarded as a sister by Lianxiang and the others? Lianxiang told me that although Tianxiang is a woman, she had the desire to travel around the world in her early years, so she left Jinyang a year ago  , her whereabouts are unknown, so the people you sent found no trace of her."

    In Wenhan's mind, Tianxiang's fairy-like figure suddenly appeared, and there was some disappointment in his eyes.  Cai Yan saw it, but he didn't feel jealous at all. Instead, he comforted him.

    "Don't worry, Sanlang. Before Lianxiang left, she left a message to her acquaintances in Jinyang. If Tianxiang goes back to Jinyang to look for them and knows that they are in Hedong, she should also come."

    Wenhan smiled, hugged Cai Yan, and said softly.

    "Don't worry, Yan'er. In my mind, you are the one I want to protect and love throughout my life."

    Cai Yan just smiled, so beautiful that Wen Han was fascinated and full of affection.  Wenhan lifted Cai Yan's chin, which was as white as snow, and kissed it gently. Cai Yan responded with a little shyness.

    The two fell in love and became husband and wife again. Then, the thunder from the sky stirred up the fire on the earth

    Time flies by like a fleeting moment, and these days of leisure allow Wenhan to recuperate both physically and mentally.  However, Wenhan did not dare to indulge too much, because he and the people he loved and valued were still living in troubled times.

    One day, he found Xilong and was trying to figure out the possible battles he would face in the conquest of Bingzhou.  Suddenly, there was a movement outside the door, and then an angry Guan Yu and an eager Diao Chan rushed in.

    "Third brother! You want to conquer the Baibo bandits. How can you hide such a big thing from me!"

    Wenhan's expression changed slightly. He couldn't say anything about this. He quickly winked at Xilong and asked Xilong for help.

    "Second General, please don't be angry. Seeing that your injury has not recovered, my lord is afraid that if you go with the army and the injury worsens, the Second General will definitely keep it a secret. By then, there will be thousands of troops on the battlefield, and arrows will be fired at random.  , The sword has no eyes, if the second general is injured again, the lord will regret it. "

    After hearing this, Guan Yu was not relieved, but cast his eyes on Wen Han.  Wenhan sighed. It seemed that he couldn't appease his arrogant second brother without much effort.

    "Second brother, your injury is not healed and you are not suitable for fighting. What if you lose anything? How do you expect me and my eldest brother and third brother to survive? We have an oath!"

    "Third brother, my injuries have long since healed. Moreover, those Baibo thieves are just a mob, how could they possibly hurt me in the slightest."

    "Okay, that's it for now. I won't hide it from my second brother. The reason why I didn't tell him before was because I was afraid of affecting the morale of the army. But my second brother forced me so much that I had to tell him. I also asked my second brother to listen.  ¡±

    Wenhan pretended to be mysterious. Guan Yu was suspicious for a while, but he still walked over and listened.  Wen Han whispered a few words quickly in Guan Yu's ear. Guan Yu was stunned at first, then his face became serious, and finally he became suspicious again and stared at Wen Han.

    "Third brother, don't try to deceive Guan. Is what you just said true?"

    "Second brother, how could third brother ever deceive you? You have to do this. If you leave it to others, I can't let it go."

    Wenhan¡¯s face remained unchanged and he nodded heavily.  Guan Yu looked at Wen Han for a while and saw that he didn't seem to be lying, so he half believed him.

    Diao Chan saw Wen Han saying a few words at the side, so she calmed down the angry Guan Yu, and looked at Wen Han with a little curiosity in her big bright moon eyes.

    "In this case, although my third brother is worried about fighting against the Baibo bandits in Bingzhou, Guan Yunchang will definitely be safe with me in Hedong."

    "That's natural. My second brother is a peerless hero. However, he still needs to rest a lot in preparation for his funeral. Miss Diaochan, these days have really troubled you. If it weren't for your careful care, my second brother would definitely not be well.  Got it so fast.¡±

    Wenhan said, suddenly giving a salute to Diao Chan.  Although Wenhan was Guan Yu's sworn brother, he also had the identity of the Lord of Hedong. Diao Chan didn't dare to accept the courtesy and quickly returned the courtesy.

    "Haha, Miss Diao Chan is unparalleled in beauty. She and my second brother are really a golden couple. Second brother, when are you going to let Diao Chan become my sister-in-law?"

    Suddenly, Wenhan changed the subject, winked at Guan Yu and said jokingly.  His words immediately made Diao Chan so embarrassedHis face was flushed.  Guan Yu smiled stupidly and shook his head cutely.  Although Diao Chan felt happy in her heart, she had the reserve of a woman, so she kicked off Yu Lian with half shame and half annoyance and left.  When Guan Yu saw this, he thought Diao Chan was unwilling and hurriedly chased after her.

    Men in love are ignorant and slow.  Even Guan Yu, who has a reputation that makes ghosts and gods fear him, is the same.

    Wenhan felt a little sad as he watched Guan Yu and Diao Chan leave one after another.  Regarding the matter between Guan Yu and Diao Chan, he was complicated and amazed.

    In official history, Diao Chan¡¯s fate is very sad.  Although she later followed Lu Bu, Lu Bu's life could not last long. After Lu Bu was killed by Cao Cao in Baimen Tower, Diao Chan was nowhere to be found.  Some people say that she was taken over by Cao Cao, while others say that she went to Jiuquan with the defeated Lu Bu.

    What Wenhan didn't expect was that Guan Yu's move to send to Chang'an to offer advice to Wang Yun would actually change Diao Chan's fate.  Of course, Wen Han also vaguely remembered that he had read many books in later generations, which also recorded that Guan Yu and Diao Chan were from the same hometown, and the two had a relationship.  However, most of them were unofficial histories and could not be fully believed, so Wenhan did not take them to heart.

    However, from today¡¯s perspective, some unofficial records cannot be ignored.

    "My lord, what clever trick did you use to deceive the second general?"

    Suddenly, Xilong came over and pulled Wenhan out of his thoughts.

    "Hey. This is an inappropriate lie. I just told my second brother that Yuan Benchu ??would probably take the opportunity to invade Hedong after learning about my conquest of Bingzhou."

    "How is this possible? Yuan Benchu ??is plotting against Jizhou. He hopes that his lord will not take advantage of it and invade Hanoi."

    "With great talent, everything is possible. Although Hedong is only a county, since the implementation of farming, Hedong has become a state and county rich in grain and grass. The princes near Hedong are all looking at Hedong. And once we start to conquer the Baibo bandits  , the east of the river must be empty, and it would not be surprising if the princes come to attack.

    Now it is time to take advantage of this reason to appease the second brother and let him recover from his injuries, while at the same time ensuring the stability of Hedong. This is a move that kills two birds with one stone.  "

    After hearing this, Xilong began to think deeply. Since he decided to attack Bingzhou, Xilong has put almost all his thoughts into it, so it is difficult to think thoroughly about some places.  Wenhan's words reminded him.

    "What the lord said is true. In the past few days, I will think carefully about the defense of Hedong. Fortunately, the lord reminded me in time. If it is true as the lord guessed, after we leave Hedong, other princes will attack. Nalong can be said to be  All deaths are inevitable.¡±

    Actually, we can¡¯t blame Xilong for this, after all, Wenhan is really short of counselors.  Zhang Hong and Han Song were better at internal affairs, and in some aspects, they couldn't help Xilong too much.

    "You should not be like this if you are a talented person. It is too difficult for you to leave the entire Hedong operation to you alone. After the merger of the states is completed, I will issue a talent gathering order, hoping to recruit some talents to assist you.  "

    As Wenhan¡¯s power gradually grows in the future, the manpower will indeed need to be increased.  When Xilong heard Wenhan talk about the Order of Gathering Talents, his eyes immediately lit up, and he started to discuss the Order of Gathering Talents with Wenhan.

    But it is said that after Gongsun Zan left the righteous army, he passed through the plain on his way back.  At that time, the plain was attacked by Black Mountain bandits. Liu Bei had long wanted to stand on his own feet, so he asked Gongsun Zan to borrow troops.  Gongsun Zan knew that Liu Bei was not willing to be inferior to others, and he also wanted Liu Bei to make a lot of contributions in the battle with Dong Zhuo, so he followed Liu Bei's wishes and lent him two thousand troops.

    So Liu Bei and his two invincible men, Pan Feng and Zhang Fei, led two thousand soldiers and horses to attack the plain.  The leader of the Black Mountain bandits in Pingyuan County saw that Liu Bei had few soldiers, so he ordered his troops to fight against Liu Bei.

    Unexpectedly, two giant men, Pan Feng and Zhang Fei, were so brave that they could not stop them. They galloped on horseback and rushed into the bandit formation. Their weapons danced tightly in their hands, and they flew all the way to kill as if they were entering an uninhabited land. Black Mountain  Several young generals tried to block the thieves, but they were all killed by Pan Feng and Zhang Fei and fell off their horses.  Pan Feng and Zhang Fei fought in and out of the Black Mountain bandit army, slashing and stabbing when they met the enemy. Only two of them killed the bandits, causing chaos in the bandit formation.  Later, when Liu Bei saw that all the traitors were killed by Pan Feng and Zhang Fei, he was so frightened that he quickly sent out his troops to kill them.

    Immediately, the Black Mountain bandits were defeated like a mountain, and their head was split in half by Pan Feng's axe. When the remaining bandits saw that their leader was dead, their courage was shattered, and they all knelt down and surrendered.  After Liu Bei collected a wave of bandits, his troops reached 5,000, and he thought that his morale would be strong at this time, so he fought with the remaining Black Mountain bandits in the counties in the plains for several days until the Black Mountain bandits were driven back to the plains, fighting and retreating all the way.  , and actually expanded the army to 8,000 people.

    After Liu Bei took Pingyuan County, he sold the jewelry he got from Yuan Shao. After obtaining the gold and silver, he recruited troops, built armaments, and purchased and hoarded grain and grass.  There is a situation like a prince.

    flatIn the original county seat.

    "Report, I hope Governor Shi Gengwu will come to see you!"

    "Jizhou? Pass!"

    After Liu Bei paused for a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had expected it and had been waiting for a long time.

    After a while, Geng Wu, led by a sergeant, walked up to Liu Bei. Before Liu Bei could speak, Geng Wu saluted Liu Bei heavily.

    "I heard that Liu Xuande has always been benevolent and righteous. Now that Jizhou is in trouble, I hope Xuande can come to the rescue!!"

    Liu Bei quickly stretched out his hands to help Geng Wu up, with a look of concern on his face.

    "Why would Sir Geng give such a great gift? Han Jizhou was a loyal man, and he and Bei Geng were comrades-in-arms and comrades in the righteous army. How could Bei stand by and watch when Jizhou was in trouble? However, Gongsun Zan had been very kind to Bei, and Bei couldn't bear to fight with him.  as an enemy.¡±

    "Xuande's words are wrong. Master Gongsun was not deceived by Yuan Shao, but was used by Yuan Shao to make him a blade. That Yuan Benchu ??was a tiger and wolf. My lord lent him food again and again, but he didn't realize that he was raising money."  The tiger is in trouble. This man is greedy and wants to plot against Jizhou. If Xuande is willing to take action, but only against Yuan Benchu, my lord will never forget Xuande's great kindness. All military supplies will come from Jizhou.  out."

    "Can Sir Geng allow you to think about it for a few days before giving an answer?"

    "Xuande, now Jizhou is being attacked by the troops of Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan, and Jizhou is in danger. Before Wu came, my lord had already said that if Xuande is willing to send troops, half of the land of Jizhou will be given to Xuande."

    Liu Bei was very happy when he heard this, but he didn't show it, and he was very righteous.

    "How can Bei be the villain who took advantage of the situation?"

    "Of course my lord knows Xuande's benevolence and righteousness. But there are tigers and wolves in Jizhou, and my lord is really overwhelmed. I hope Xuande will save him for the sake of the thousands of people in Jizhou!!!"

    "Master Geng actually said this. If Bei continues to stand by and watch, he is no different from an animal. Please go back and inform Han Jizhou, Master Geng. In three days, Bei will lead his troops to rescue Jizhou."

    "Xuan De is so kind and righteous, Wu would like to express my gratitude!!"

    Geng Wu was overjoyed after hearing this and bowed heavily to Liu Bei again.  Liu Bei helped Geng Wu up, and then held Geng Wu's hand. When he said some high-sounding words of justice, Geng Wu was amazed and deeply moved. He almost regarded Liu Bei as the savior of Jizhou.
