Since Yuyi used the Tang and Zhou dynasties to pass on the information of the Golden Uprising to the court, Zhang Jiao and Julu people rose up, and the Golden Army pointed directly at Fanyang, Youzhou. Liu Yan, the prefect of Youzhou, heard that the Yellow Turban Army was coming in a mighty manner, so he
He asked the captain Zou Jing to go to the hall to discuss matters and said, "This time the Yellow Turban Army is coming in full force and there are responses from all over the country. What should we do?"
Zou Jing thought for a while and replied: "The reinforcements from the court should be still on the road, but the distance cannot save the nearby fire. There are not many soldiers guarding the city. We should recruit some loyal men in the city as soon as possible to fill our team. This is also
It fits the imperial court's intentions."
Liu Yan was descended from King Gong of Han and a native of Jingling, Jiangxia. He did not understand the war in the north, so he followed Zou Jing's intention, so he publicly released the list in Youzhou City to recruit Yi soldiers.
The news about the Bangwen reached Zhuo County, attracting the attention of local heroes. It quickly surrounded the Bangwen. One of them had a face like a jade crown and a lips like grease. It was seven feet and five inches long, with two ears lodged shoulders and hands.
It is above the knee, and the eyes can look at it, and it is a strange person at first glance.
At that time, Yuyi entered Youzhou and came to Zhuo County. When he encountered such a scene, he went up to make friends.
"Why did you sigh?"
Yuyi walked up to the man and asked softly.
"I heard that the Yellow Turbans are in chaos and have the ambition to destroy the thieves and the people are safe, but I hate them, so I sigh."
The man bowed his hand and said that he was a salute.
Yu Yi returned the court and said, "Your Majesty is a cult. The uprising is just a rebellious act. The court and the people will always attack it, and it will be a matter of time before the demise."
"After going down to Zhongshan Jing, Liu Sheng, the great-grandson of Emperor Jing of Han, his great-grandson of Emperor Jing of Han, his surname is Liu, his name is Bei, and his courtesy name is Xuande. Today, I heard the teacher's explanation and suddenly realized!"
After hearing this, Liu Bei seemed to understand something and intended to make friends with Yu Yi.
When Yu Yi heard the other party's name, he was secretly surprised. He said that Liu Bei was a big-eared thief. When he saw him today, he was indeed well-known. It is said that Liu Bei was not very fond of reading. He was gentle and taciturn, and did not show his emotions. He had great ambitions.
, specializes in making friends with heroes all over the world.
As for his life experience, although he was a royal relative, his family was in decline. His grandfather Liu Xiong and his father Liu Hong were once filial and honest. He died when he was very young. Liu Bei was an orphan since he was a child and depended on his mother for his life. His family was poor and he relied on trafficking.
Weaving mats for business.
"I don't dare to call this title of sir, just call me Yuyi, I'm from Jiangxia."
Liu Bei had a high opinion of Yu Yi, so Yu Yi had to respond modestly.
The two people then talked sternly by one behind him: "Why do you sigh here if you don't contribute to the country?"
Yu Yi looked back at the man, eight feet long, with a leopard head, a ringed eyes, a swallow chin and a tiger beard, a sound like a huge thunder, a galloping horse, a dark skin, and a rude speech. Who would it be if it weren't Zhang Fei?
He asked, "You are Zhang Fei, whose courtesy name is Yide?"
Seeing that this man was abnormal in appearance, Liu Bei wanted to ask his name, but Yu Yi snatched it first, and said, "Why do you know his name?"
Zhang Fei also felt very strange, staring at Yu Yi without leaving.
Yu Yi smiled and said, "Are you the butcher of meat selling in Zhuo County? I have bought things from you before, so I remember you!"
Unexpectedly, someone knew him. Zhang Fei smiled happily and said, "I just saw you sighing at the list of articles. I have always liked to make friends with heroes in the world, so I asked."
"So that's it. My name is Liu Bei, and he is Yu Yi."
After Liu Bei figured out the situation, he introduced it.
"I did some pork business, and I had some money on the manor and could recruit some militias. How about we do big things together?"
Zhang Fei suggested.
"I don't know what you think, sir?"
Liu Bei was naturally very happy after hearing this, but he only knew Yu Yi and didn't know what he thought, so he asked tentatively.
"Of course this is good. It is our honor to contribute to the country."
Yu Yi smiled.
So Liu Bei pulled Yuyi and Zhang Fei to his manor and went to the store to drink.
While the three of them were paying off their debts, they saw a big man pushing a car, stopping at the store, entering the store to play the top, and calling the bartender: "Come on, pour wine, I'm still rushing to the city to join the army."
Looking at the person: his body is nine feet long and his beard is two feet long; his face is like a heavy date, his lips are like a paint coat; his eyes are red and phoenixes, his eyes are lying in silkworm eyebrows, his appearance is majestic and majestic, and he is not an ordinary person at first glance.
Yu Yi wanted to call him his name, but when he thought something was wrong, he suggested to Liu Bei: "Since this person is also going to join the army, why not invite him to drink together."
Liu Bei nodded, immediately asked about his name, and replied: "My surname is Guan, his name is Yu, his name is Changsheng, and later changed to Yunchang, and he was also a good man from Hedong. Because of his strong and domineering power, I was furious and turned it into
He was killed and fled to the world for five or six years. Now I heard that Zhuo County recruited troops and defeated thieves, so I came to recruit."
"It's really better to come early than to come by chance. Come and I'll give you a cup!"
Yu Yi was very excited when he saw Guan Yu's appearance and wanted to toast with him.
Guan Yu drank all the wine in one gulp. After hearing Liu Bei's ambitions, he felt very happy. He immediately agreed to everyone to go to Zhang Fei's manor together to plan major events.
Several people drank a lot of wine and were a little drunk. Zhang Fei was very proud and suggested: "There is a peach garden behind my manor, and the flowers are in full bloom. Tomorrow, I will worship the heaven and earth in the garden. The four of me will become brothers and work together.
Only by being together can you do something big.”
Liu Bei and Guan Yu answered in unison: "That's it." Only Yu Yi did not make any noise.
Yu Yi was thinking about what the fortune teller in front of the White Horse Temple in Luoyang said. He calculated that his good luck was in the north. Is it the Taoyuan Three Jewishes? But from a historical perspective, these three people went to
The fate of the future is very tragic. If I really become brothers with them, would it be?
"Sir, do you look down on us, the mountain village men?"
Liu Bei looked at Yu Yi and showed a questioning attitude.
Yu Yi thought about it and said that since it was the arrangement of fate, he agreed to the relationship, but he also had to set a rule to save them at a critical moment.
"Your Excellency is such a bad word. I just drank a little too much and didn't hear it. I agree with the matter of charity!"
Yu Yi smiled.
As a result, the atmosphere returned to the past, and the three of them continued to drink and did not return without getting drunk.
On the second day, in Zhang Fei's Taoyuan, sacrificial items such as cattle and horse were prepared. The four of them burned incense and worshiped again, and then swore together: "I miss Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Yu Yi, although they are of different surnames, they have become brothers.
, When working together, you will be in trouble and help the people; report to the country and be at peace with the people. Do not seek to be born on the same day of the same month of the same year, but seek to die on the same day of the same month of the same year. The Emperor and Empress Dowager can learn this. If someone is unfaithful and forgiving, the heavens and man will kill each other
!”
After the oath was over, Liu Bei was appointed as his brother, Guan Yu was followed by Zhang Fei, and Yu Yi was the younger brother. At this time, Liu Bei was already twenty-eight years old.
