After the Yijie Jinlan procedure was completed, Zhang Fei slaughtered some cattle and sheep and held a banquet in the local area, attracting more than 300 villagers around him.
During this period, a middle-aged man suspected Liu Bei's leadership ability this time and questioned: "We work hard for the country and strive to fight against thieves. That also requires a wise person to lead. I observed that Liu Bei looked like a Confucian scholar, how could he take on this important task?
”
As soon as these words were said, Zhang Fei was irritable and was about to attack, but was stopped by Liu Bei.
He smiled and said, "I live in Lousang Village, my county. To the southeast of his family, there is a large mulberry tree, about five meters high. From a distance, it looks like a car hood. My mother said that I have been urinating since I was a child.
Amazing ambition to become the emperor and ride in such a car hood.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone sighed.
Liu Bei continued: "No one else takes my words seriously, but my uncle attaches great importance to them and laments that I am not an ordinary person because my family was poor at that time, so I often sponsored my family. When I was fifteen,
I also became a disciple of Zheng Xuan. I learned some skills and made friends with Lu Zhi, Gongsun Zan and others."
"Once there was a master who passed by my elder brother's house and asserted that there would be a noble person there, not to mention that he had royal blood, so why worry about the big thing not being accomplished?"
Yu Yi followed Liu Bei's words and continued to create such an atmosphere, and Liu Bei returned to his gratitude.
After such a refutation, the middle-aged man was speechless and quietly retreated, and the other villagers who came to join him also increased their confidence.
During the meal, Liu Bei repeatedly toasted Yu Yi, probably because he was a little grateful. Yu Yi accepted it one after another. Thinking about the story of Liu Bang, the Emperor Gaozu of Han, who became a bandit in Mangdang Mountain, two things were also legendary, one was to kill the white snake and the other
It was Lu Zhi who could always find him, saying that it was because where he was, there were some colorful auspicious clouds in the sky. In fact, these things cannot be verified. After all, they are the deified Liu Bang's identity. Why do you ask an ordinary person and others follow you?
Be convinced. Liu Bei also needed such a superstitious package at this time. After hearing Liu Bei's words, Yu Yi also realized his intention and then added it.
After the banquet, the four began to discuss the purchase of other matters. Liu Bei sighed: "Now we have recruited people, but we don't have weapons to equip and no war horses to ride. What should we do?"
Zhang Fei almost dispersed all his family's property, recruited these village warriors, and then bought weapons, but there was really no funding, so everyone began to worry.
At this time, Yu Yi remembered something, which was a white cloth that Ye Huatong handed over when she came to join Daoxiang Village. It was a commercial map of the Ye family.
"Brother, I have a solution to this matter, so don't worry."
Yu Yi took out the white cloth, took out the wine, applied it evenly, and immediately showed some patterns.
"Fourth brother, what are you doing?"
Zhang Fei felt a little confused.
"This is a commercial map that can help us find war horses and weapons!"
Yu Yi smiled.
Then everyone studied the map, found the corresponding merchants near Taoyuan, and asked, and the other party replied: "Recently, Zhongshan merchants Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang have returned. They are big horse vendors. You can go and wait for him, and see if you are looking at it.
I will do my best to fight against the thieves and the people."
The four of them gave some gold and silver, thanked and left.
As soon as he returned to Taoyuan, he met two guests. He drove a group of horses to the manor. Liu Bei sighed, "This is really help from God!"
These two were Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang, a great merchant of Zhongshan. They transported war horses to the north every day. During this period, due to the Yellow Turban Army, they returned in vain. I heard that Liu Bei made friends with heroes in Taoyuan and helped the people fight against the thieves, so he came to join him.
They gave all fifty good horses, and dispersed all 500 taels of gold, silver and 1,000 kilograms of iron to support Liu Bei and others in charge.
Liu Bei bid farewell to the two guests and discussed using iron to make some handy weapons, so he collected everyone's opinions.
Liu Bei planned to make a sword, Zhang Fei wanted to make a steel spear, while Guan Yu wanted to make a knife, and Yu Yi already had a weapon, which was a bronze halberd.
Just when Liu Bei was planning to make weapons like this, Yu Yi stepped forward to stop him. He thought that all the brothers were heroes of the world, and only with good weapons could they be invincible, so he would see the situation in the secret room of Daoxiang Village.
Described and supplemented in previous comments.
So Liu Bei built a double-stranded sword, Yun Chang made a Qinglong Yanyue Sword, weighing 82 kilograms, and Zhang Fei made an eight-point steel spear. Yu Yi thought he had a weapon, so he refused, but he still made a halberd of iron for him.
Then everyone bought armor, which attracted more than 200 people to join, and at this time there were about 500 people.
Liu Bei took Yu Yi, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu to organize the troops, left Taoyuan, walked into the city, and met Zou Jing. He took Liu Bei and the four of them to meet the prefect Liu Yan, exchanged their names and talked about the Han Dynasty.
The clan relative, Liu Yan, seemed very excited, and recognized Liu Bei as his nephew on the spot, set up a banquet to entertain everyone.
Finally, Liu Bei and the other four were arranged to live in a famous residence near the government office. At night, the four brothers had a long chat, which made Yu Yi feel the atmosphere of the university dormitory. At that time, there were also four people, from female classmates to the future, all of them were
Say, talk about everything.
During his conversation, Liu Bei always called Yu Yi Mr., which made Yu Yi a little worried. After many corrections, Liu Bei finally changed his words and called Yu Yi Yu Er.
On the second day, Liu Yan reported to the person who summoned him and learned the news that it turned out that the vanguard of the Yellow Turban Army was invaded. The general of his commander was Cheng Yuanzhi. When it came to the scale, he was shocked by Yu Yi, and there were 50,000.
People should know that after Daoxiang Village has cultivated and maintained their health and resuscitation, the scale of its Tang Lin army was only 5,000, while the Golden Army often had tens of thousands. It seems that the power of this belief is really amazing.
Liu Yan ordered Liu Bei and the other four to command 500 elite soldiers to go out of the city to welcome his younger brother, and Liu Bei happily agreed.
Yu Yi observed that Zhang Fei seemed to be a little restless, as if he was dissatisfied with Liu Bei's behavior, so he asked: "What's wrong with Brother Fei? Going out of the city to meet the enemy and making achievements. This is a good thing, why are you crying and crying?"
"Hey, I don't know anything. Look at that Liu Yan, he said that he recognizes our elder brother, but he doesn't have any kindness!"
Zhang Fei sighed.
"How do you say this?"
Guan Yu touched his beard and looked at Zhang Fei.
"Look at how many people came to the other party, it was 50,000, and how many people Liu Yan sent us was 500. This is clearly what we were going to die."
Zhang Fei seemed very angry.
"Yidmo wants to talk nonsense. He is giving us a chance to kill the thief."
Liu Bei corrected Zhang Fei's wrong ideas.
Zhang Fei was naturally dissatisfied with Liu Bei's explanation, but the elder brother's meaning was not easy to disobey, so he could only turn around, as if he was sulking.
