The man standing in front of me is Liu Bei, the first leader of Shu Han in history.
"Liu Shijun." Yan Liang bowed his hands in greeting and looked at Liu Bei, but his mood was very complicated.
Frankly speaking, Yan Liang does have some admiration for Liu Bei.
This man was born as a mat weaver and shoe seller, and he struggled and wandered throughout his life. He fought and lost many times, but he was defeated and defeated again and again. In the end, in this era when the aristocratic family ruled the roost, he was one of the three in the world.
If nothing else, just this indomitable and adaptable spirit is enough to be amazing.
It was just his instructions before leaving that almost caused him to be killed by Guan Yu's sword. Naturally, Yan Liang was deeply jealous of his crow's mouth.
However, Yan Liang also knew that this was not all Liu Bei's fault, he was just kind-hearted.
It's just that Liu Bei probably didn't expect that in order to fulfill the Tushan agreement he made with Cao Cao, his sworn brother desperately wanted to make meritorious deeds and would kill him without any hesitation.
Yan Liang was a little tired and didn't want to talk too much nonsense with Liu Bei, so he asked: "Liu Shijun came to me and I don't know why?"
"It's like this." Liu Bei coughed a few times and his smile became more kind. "Before the general set off for the expedition, Bei asked the general to ask about my second brother Guan Yunchang. I wonder if there is any news about Yunchang during the general's White Horse trip?"
Yan Liang knew that he was here to inquire about this matter, and he thought to himself, "How can I do this? I almost got killed by your good sworn brother."
Yan Liang smiled slightly, "If Liu Shijun didn't come to ask me, I almost forgot. Yesterday, outside Baima City, an enemy general with a red face and a green hat suddenly rode into the battle alone. Without saying a word, he slashed at me with his sword.
I wonder if this person is Liu Shijun’s sworn brother."
"Is this happening?" Liu Bei looked very surprised, "Judging from the general's description, this person must be Yun Chang, but Yun Chang should know that I am in the Hebei Army, so why would he still be an enemy of the general?"
Liu Bei said this as if he was asking Yan Liang, but also as if he was talking to himself.
Yan Liang's sharp eyes were observing Liu Bei all the time. How could the momentary wavering in his eyes escape Yan Liang's eyes.
Yan Liang felt that Liu Bei seemed to have doubts about Guan Yu's loyalty at this moment.
However, he knew very well that Guan Yu was loyal to Liu Bei and was an enemy of the Hebei army. He only wanted to repay Cao Cao's kindness with his merits, so he surrendered to Liu Bei with a clear conscience.
Liu Bei left his entire family to Guan Yu and fled to Hebei alone. Of course he didn't know about Tushan's agreement, let alone Guan Yu's difficulties. Perhaps that was why he had doubts about Guan Yu's loyalty.
"I don't know why Yun Chang behaved like this. I only know that if I hadn't reacted in time yesterday, I'm afraid what Liu Shijun would have seen today would have been my body, Yan Liang."
There was a hint of cynicism in Yan Liang's tone.
The suspicion in Liu Bei's eyes flashed, and he immediately said seriously: "Yun Chang is loyal to Bei. If he heard that Bei was under the command of Yuan Gong, he would definitely not dare to go against the general. I think Cao Cao must be afraid of me, and if he heard that I
At Mr. Yuan's place, he was afraid that I would help Mr. Yuan, so he sent Yun Chang to confront the general, so that he could use Mr. Yuan's hand to kill Liu Bei. I hope the general will understand clearly."
When Liu Bei spoke, he was always filled with a unique charm.
In particular, his eyes always reveal sincerity and enthusiasm. No matter what he says, others will feel that he is thinking about you and is definitely not deceiving. He seems to be born with charisma.
Yan Liang spent a lot of effort to get away from the inspiration of his words, thinking that Liu Bei's three-inch tongue was really impressive.
Wouldn't it be a disaster to keep such a character alive?
Looking at this generation of heroes in front of him, Yan Liang suddenly felt a little murderous.
This person is extraordinary. Since I already know how powerful he is, why not take the opportunity to eliminate him and eliminate a very strong opponent for yourself first.
With this thought throughout his life, Yan Liang deliberately revealed Guan Yu's affairs to Yuan Shao, and used Yuan Shao's help to eliminate Liu Bei.
However, as soon as the idea came up, he rejected it on the spot.
Historically, Yuan Shao, after his two favorite generals Yan Liang, Wen Chou and Guan Yu were killed by Guan Yu, was still infected by Liu Bei's words and could not bear to kill him. Moreover, Yan Liang was still alive, and Yuan Shao was even less likely to kill Liu Bei because of Guan Yu.
Since Liu Bei can't be killed, why not just make a favor and have one more temporary friend, which is better than one more powerful enemy.
Thinking of this, Yan Liang laughed and said, "Shijun Liu is right. I'm still wondering about Yunchang's behavior. He fell in love with Cao Cao and it's you who knows Cao Cao best."
Liu Bei secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and his righteous expression immediately became gentle again.
"Bei was dormant under the thief Cao back then in order to find out his background. To be honest, there is no one in the world who knows this thief better than me." Liu Bei said loudly, and his tone was also a bit proud.
However, that pride only faded away in an instant.
He moved closer to Yan Liang and said cautiously: "General Yan can see through Cao Cao's scheme. Liu Bei admires him from the bottom of his heart. It's just a matter of Yun Chang. General Yan doesn't know how to do it in front of Mr. Yuan..."
Liu Bei did not finish his words, but raised his eyebrows slightly, giving a hint.
"Don't worry, Mr. Liu, I won't tell Mr. Yuan about such a trivial matter." Yan Liang naturally understood what he was saying and went along with the flow and sold Liu Bei a favor.
A hint of joy flashed across Liu Bei's eyes, and he hurriedly bowed his head: "General Yan understands Dali very well. I would like to express my gratitude here."
Looking at Liu Bei's appearance, this thank you was sincere.
It's no wonder that ever since Liu Bei defected to Yuan Shao, the Hebei scholars who scrutinize his mates and observe discipline have been ostracizing him, and these people have Yuan Shao's trust.
For example, Shen Pei was ordered to assist his son Yuan Shang to stay in Yecheng during Yuan Shao's southern expedition. This shows the importance of these people in Yuan Shao's eyes.
Now if an excuse is given to Shen Pei and others, there is no guarantee that they will not take the opportunity to attack Liu Bei, and Yuan Shao is very suspicious. Although he may not necessarily do anything to Liu Bei in the end, it is inevitable that he will look down on Liu Bei.
Yan Liang's favor saved Liu Bei from an embarrassment, so he was naturally sincerely grateful to Yan Liang.
After sending Liu Bei away, Yan Liang could finally have a good sleep.
Yesterday's thrilling battle with Guan Yu consumed a lot of energy. Until now, he has not slept all day and night, and he is quite exhausted mentally and physically.
Yan Liang urgently needs a rest because he still has to recharge his batteries and prepare to deal with another character.
That person is Yuan Shao.
In the evening, Yuan Shao, who was lured to Yanjin by Xun You's plan, finally led the main force of Yuan's army and rushed back after a long journey.
After eating and drinking, Yan Liang regained his energy and went to the Chinese army's tent to see Yuan Shao.
In the wide military tent, eight huge torches were lit on the left and right sides, making the tent warm and bright.
On the huge table in the center of the big tent, there are two candles as thick as human arms on the two wings. Under the flashing red light, the man behind the table wearing golden armor and half-white beard is staring attentively at the tiled table.
A huge map on the table.
It was an upright face, and the vicissitudes left by the years could not conceal the faintly discernible handsomeness. The pair of deep eyes exuded an extraordinary luster.
It is a kind of innate pride, as if one is born to be superior to others.
The extraordinary man in front of me is none other than Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu, the most powerful prince in the world who was born in the Fourth Generation and Three Dukes and owned the four states.
Originally, Yan Liang was influenced by "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and his impression of Yuan Shao was always that of a playboy with embroidered pillows. However, after time travel, Yan Liang gradually realized that although Yuan Shao was not as powerful as Cao Cao, he was still a man with an extraordinary personality.
Charming hero.
In terms of family background, the direct descendant Yuan Shu is stronger than Yuan Shao. In terms of military ability, when Gongsun Zan defeated the Hu Lu and became frightened, Yuan Shao was still in Luoyang as his fourth son in the capital.
But in the end, Gongsun Zan died, Yuan Shu died of grief and anger, and Yuan Shao became the most powerful prince in the world.
Putting aside the concept of success and defeat, and looking at Yuan Shao objectively, Yan Liang deeply felt that the Yuan Benchu in front of him was definitely a powerful figure.
It's a pity that his opponent is Cao Cao, an even more amazing hero.
"I will finally pay my respects to my lord." Yan Liangliang stepped forward cautiously.
Yuan Shao raised his head, and there seemed to be some gloom hidden in his sharp eyes.
"I ordered you to attack Baima, but why did you retreat to Liyang without my permission?" Yuan Shao asked coldly, anger clearly flowing in his words.
