Liu Pi's "Yellow Turban" in Yuzhou is the most inspiring story of blind faith in Big Er.
The leader Liu Pi admired Liu Xuande the most, and said to his subordinates every day, "My surname is Liu, and Xuande's surname is Liu. They are all relatives of His Majesty. If you submit to the imperial court in the future, you will become officials if you follow me!"
The eldest brother trusted Liu Bei, while Zhou Cang, the second in charge of the family, loved the second brother Guan the most.
Zhou Cang was illiterate, so his greatest pleasure every day was to have the smart-talking members of the Yellow Turban Army repeat the story of his second brother over and over again in his ears while drinking.
The ancients used the Spring and Autumn Period to drink wine, and Zhou Cang used the deeds of the second master to accompany the meal. If he did not listen to Hua Xiong for a day, he would feel as if he was not feeling well.
Zhou Cang's entire set of weapons and equipment are imitated in Guan Yu's style. Unfortunately, his eyes are too big, and the second master's scornful eyes cannot be imitated no matter how hard he tries.
Today in Cao's camp, Xia Houen, who is known as the most powerful general, arrives, but he is afraid of two things.
Xiahou En was afraid of the fierceness of the Yellow Turban Army, and Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao were also afraid of Xiahou En's reputation as the number one general in Cao's camp.
The officers and soldiers surrounded the mountain. It was impossible not to fight today. Before the Yellow Turban Army went to battle, the commander closed his eyes and muttered, as if he were doing it.
"Yun Chang protects me, Xuande Gong protects me, kill Cao Cao's thieves, and the heavenly soldiers help me!"
"Xuan Tian is dead, Huang Tian should stand up, the blue dragon gnaws at the moon, slays demons and wards off evil spirits!"
Zhou Cang recited the mantra he created to boost his energy, and felt that his whole body was filled with energy.
"Ah! Follow me to kill the thief!" Zhou Cang shouted, picked up the low imitation Qinglong knife in his hand, and strode out of the mountain. Beside him, Pei Yuanshao had a sad face.
He, Lao Pei, felt that he was not good enough for someone who could rival Lu Bu.
In front of Woniu Mountain, Xia Houen was still showing off his martial arts when he saw two big men in the mountain. One looked like the reincarnation of a black bear, and the other was covered in tendon meat and was not riding a horse. He was carrying a knife and gun and his head was wrapped in yellow cloth, rushing straight towards the bottom of the mountain.
"Datong help me, kill the thief and make meritorious service!"
Xia Houen muttered silently, held a spear in his hand, and shouted to meet him.
"Guan Gong covers me!"
"The third master is possessed!"
Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao each shouted, waved their long swords and short spears, and rushed forward.
In an instant, a cavalry general was fighting with two infantry generals at the foot of the mountain.
When they first met Xia Houen, Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang were quite frightened. They didn't expect that General Cao Ying would be weak and weak at the slightest touch of the weapon. Where could he be a strong general?
Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao never thought that Xia Houen was just a trick to deceive the world and steal his reputation. They all thought that he was possessed by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. The opponent was so weak, so they couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
"Second Master, help me, help me!"
"Third Master, please borrow some bravery to use and go back to Lao Pei to build a shrine for you!"
Amidst the shouts of the Yellow Turban General, it was the traditional performing arts god who took over his body, and the two men danced with swords and spears in a vigorous manner, as if they were possessed by a fierce general.
Xia Houen was hesitant on his horse, and was instantly at a disadvantage.
Twenty miles north of Woniu Mountain, in the reeds, Liu Pi, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army, watched with sweat in his hands as his subordinates fought fiercely with the most powerful general of Cao's army.
He originally thought that Lao Zhou and Lao Pei had to fight hard to defeat Xia Houen. Even if Zhou Cang and Pei Yuan Shao were defeated, it would be enough if the two of them were thick-skinned and not fatally injured.
When the time comes, you can cover yourself up and defeat the enemy.
Unexpectedly, the two talented men under him became more and more courageous as they fought, and it looked like they were about to win.
Liu Pi was so energetic that he couldn't help but emerge from the grass, raised his arms and shouted.
"Xuande helps me. When Liu Pi captures Yuzhou, he will dedicate a state to Xuande!"
Old Liu looked up at the sky. The sky was filled with white clouds, as if that kind-hearted man he had never met was looking down at him among the clouds.
Thousands of miles away in Xuzhou, the anxious Liu, Guan, and Zhang never imagined that they would remotely spiritually bless the Yuzhou Yellow Turban Liu Pi Department.
Xia Houen had already shown signs of defeat. Liu Pi's ambush troops were charging towards him, but Cao's army could not resist and retreated like a tide.
Among the rebels, the most powerful general in the world was pulled off his horse and dragged into the shield wall. After all, Cao's army was elite. They formed a formation and retreated slowly, just like Yuan Shao's veterans by the Yellow River.
There were many people in the Yellow Turbans, but they were unable to break the formation. They beat and shouted randomly, and allowed Cao's army to retreat calmly.
In the battle at Woniu Mountain, Xia Houen didn't lose many troops, but the loss of face was huge.
Boss Cao strongly recommended the first man, and led the army back to the camp in despair, thinking about the punishment from his lord, Xia Houen was quite dejected.
Outside the gate of Cao Ying, Xia Houen's cousin Xia Houyuan, a genuine Yang Youji, ran out in a hurry, his face beaming with joy. He heard the sound of horse hoofs, looked up, and saw Xia Houen returning dejectedly.
He smiled and stepped forward, grabbed the reins of Xia Houen's horse, and shouted to his unconscious cousin.
"Why are you looking so sad? We have a big event in our camp today. I came out to get some wine and I happened to meet you. Follow me back to the camp to have a drink. My lord has said that all the generals will not be drunk today. That's not right!"
Xia Houyuan's face was bearded and he smiled like a flower. Xia Houen's lips trembled and he spoke slowly.
"Brother Miaocai, when we went into battle this time, our old injury happened to relapse, and the Yellow Turban thieves took advantage of us. Alas, Woniu Mountain was not captured, and Liu Pi was proud of it!"
Xia Houen's face was full of shame, he lowered his head and spoke softly. He thought that his cousin Xia Houyuan would scold him, but he didn't expect that in Xia Houyuan's eyes, he didn't take it to heart.
"What's wrong with Woniu Mountain, Liu Pi? What is such a trivial matter? Let me tell you, Datong is here, and Chen Shijin's camp has brought Dong'e elite soldiers with him!"
"Let's do the math. It's been almost a year since we separated from Juye. It would be great if Datong comes. Without this guy, I always feel aggrieved!"
Xia Houyuan's few words made Xia Houen's spirit perk up and his chest feel sour, like a child meeting a reliable brother, and he almost burst into tears.
This year, Fang Guang was not in the camp, and Guo Jia was unwell. All matters in the camp were decided by the Lord, but the minor ones were all decided by Xun Yu.
When Xun Yu was in power, the atmosphere in the camp was completely different from when Fang Guang was there.
This is not to say that Xun Yu dared to use the Qiao County martial arts lineage and Cao Mengde's personal military general as an enemy. On the contrary, Xun Yu cared for his lord's family with incomparable affection.
It's just that this affectionate care is separated by a thin layer of separation, and the words are polite, but there is no personal friendship at all.
Xun Yu erected a barrier between the family's counselors and generals.
This is completely different from Fang Guang and the Qiao County people fighting together and then drinking and discussing world affairs.
Xia Houdun, Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, and Cao Hong, who knew nothing about literary talent and poetry, could not intervene in the discussions between Xun Yu, uncle, nephew, and the lord. Slowly, in the tent, except for military affairs, they also fell silent.
Xun Yu treated the military generals of Qiao County in the same way, but he treated the five good generals of later generations, Li Dian, Yue Jin, and Yu Jin slightly differently.
Li Dian was not originally Yue Jin, he was in Jin's party, and he and Fang Guang fought side by side in Juancheng, but now he was also won over by Xun Yu's tricks.
In short, in Fang Guang's absence, Cao Cao and his military generals all felt very aggrieved. However, the Lord had many things to do. They also felt that many things were wrong. If they wanted to say what was wrong with Xun Yu, no one could tell them.
Under such circumstances, Fang Guang returned to the camp. No wonder Xia Houen's eyes were red when he saw the familiar figure outside the tent, just like seeing his parents.
