Chapter 720 Rescue Soldiers
"Hurry up please!"

Although Liu Bei lives in Jizhou, he always pays attention to the general trend of the world.He has a more or less understanding of famous families from all over the world and famous people in the world.

Mi Zhu is a wealthy businessman in Xuzhou. His ancestors managed farming for generations, raised nearly [-] servants and diners, and had assets worth hundreds of millions.

If you can get his support, why not worry about the great cause.

Thinking of this, Liu Bei stopped Chen Dao who turned around and left again: "Wait."

Chen Dao turned his head, clasped his fists and asked, "What else do you want, my lord?"

"I'll invite you in person," Liu Bei said.

Coming to the gate of the mud courtyard, standing beside the wooden gate was an elegant man in his thirties, wearing a blue shirt and a square crown on his head.

Liu Bei stepped forward and made a ninety-degree bow, and praised: "I have heard about Mi Zizhong for a long time, but I regret that I have never met. Seeing you today, you are indeed a gentleman!"

Mi Zhu didn't know Liu Bei, so he looked him up and down, and saw that he was more than seven feet tall, with a dignified appearance and bright eyes.But the most eye-catching thing is his pair of big earlobes, almost hanging to his shoulders.

His smile gave people a feeling of spring breeze, indescribably refreshing.

"Who is your Excellency?"

"Under Liu Bei."

"It turned out to be Duke Xuande, disrespect and disrespect."

Mi Zhu saluted Liu Bei, and his impression of Liu Bei was more than [-] points.

Liu Bei welcomed Mi Zhu into the yard, and greeted him with tea and wine, very enthusiastically.

Afterwards, the two sat facing each other, while Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stood behind Liu Bei with their waists in their arms.

"These two are..." Mi Zhu glanced over, curious.

"They are my sworn brothers, the second brother Guan Yu, and the third brother Zhang Fei." Liu Bei introduced, quite proud of his words.

Hearing the elder brother's introduction, Guan and Zhang both hugged Mi Zhu at the same time, which is regarded as meeting.

Knowing the identities of the two, Mi Zhu was startled: "Could it be that the two warriors who were imprisoned in the tiger prison back then fought against Lu Bu?"

Liu Bei didn't play back then, so many people only know Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but they don't know that they have a big brother Liu Bei.

"I am ashamed to say that although my second and third younger brothers are brave, they are far from being Lu Bu's opponent." Liu Bei said truthfully, without any bragging.

"Brother, the next time we meet Lu Bu again, the outcome is unknown!" Behind Zhang Fei, his beard stood on end, his copper bell eyes widened, and he said very dissatisfied.

After the battle of Hulaoguan, Zhang Fei's demons were relieved.He was clearly aware of the gap between himself and Lu Bu, so after returning, he worked harder.

People who practice martial arts will continue to become stronger through training, until they reach a peak, and then slowly decline.

But Zhang Fei is far from reaching the peak level now.

Therefore, he kept forging ahead and wanted to further break through the boundaries.

"Xuande doesn't need to underestimate himself. The two generals, Guan and Zhang, are brave enough to be undeserved. Apart from Lu Bu, how many people in the world can fight against him?"

Mi Zhu spoke in praise.

After chatting for a while, Liu Bei brought the topic back to the right track: "Brother Zizhong came here from Xuzhou thousands of miles away, what's the matter?"

As the saying goes, there is nothing without going to the Three Treasures Hall.

Mi Zhu came all the way to Jizhou, so he couldn't really come here to visit him.

Liu Bei thinks he doesn't have that much face yet.

At first Mi Zhu was thinking about how to speak, but now that Liu Bei asked, he answered along the way: "To be honest, I came here to ask for Xuande."

Hearing these words, Liu Bei was a little puzzled, the status and status of the two were far apart.Even if it was begging, it should be him who begged Mi Zhu. How could Mi Zhu beg him instead?

Liu Bei didn't speak, and Mi Zhu went on to say: "Cao Cao, the shepherd of Yanzhou, raised [-] troops and invaded Xuzhou on a large scale, causing hundreds of thousands of people to suffer, and corpses littered the fields in Xuzhou. Tao Shijun has heard that Xuande Gong is high righteous, and he is also a member of the Han Dynasty. Clan relatives, so I was sent here to ask Xuande for help."

Then Mi Zhu told Liu Bei about Cao Song's death.

After listening to Liu Bei, he knew that this was a great opportunity to become famous, but at the same time he was a little melancholy.

He is still hanging around with Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are allies, even if he asks, Yuan Shao will definitely not give him soldiers.

Without soldiers and horses, relying on him and the five alone, it is estimated that Xuzhou could not be saved, and he also took himself in.

Seeing Liu Bei's hesitation, Mi Zhu asked tentatively, "Xuande is unwilling to rescue him? Or is there something unspeakable?"

"Brother Zizhong, it's not that Liu is resigning. It's because I have no soldiers. Even if I want to, I'm afraid I won't be able to." Liu Bei is also very helpless.

"If you don't go, Xuzhou will be in danger!"

Mi Zhu sighed softly, then got up to leave, since Liu Bei didn't want to go into this muddy water, he didn't force it.

Seeing Mi Zhu walking out of the courtyard in great disappointment, Liu Bei hesitated for a moment, and finally stopped him: "Brother Zizhong, you go back and tell Mr. Tao Shijun, let Liu Bei borrow some soldiers from other places, and then come."

Mi Zhu, who had already reached the door, turned around, with a hint of urgency in his tone: "Xuande's words are serious? Don't lie to me."

Hearing Mi Zhu's question, Liu Bei pretended to be sullen: "Why is Gong Yibei like a human being? The sage said: Since ancient times, everyone has died, and people can't stand without faith. If Liu Bei wins an army or fails to borrow an army, he will definitely come in person."

Faced with Liu Bei's questioning, Mi Zhu was not only not angry, but was very happy, clapping his hands and saying, "Xuzhou can be saved if you say so!"

Afterwards, Liu Bei sent Mi Zhu to the street and bid farewell.

Now that the promise has been made, it is necessary to race against time. If one step is too late, Xuzhou is likely to fall into the hands of Cao Cao.

Back in the courtyard, Liu Bei no longer took care of the flowers and plants, and was not in a hurry to celebrate his birthday, so he directly ordered: "Second brother and third brother, hurry up and pack your bags, and follow me to Youzhou."

On the same day, five fast horses set off from Jizhou and headed straight for Youzhou.

You Beiping, the residence of Gongsun Zan.

Gongsun Zan was very happy to learn that Liu Bei was coming to visit.

Now he is the upstart in the north, the people of Wuhuan surrendered, and even Yuan Shao, the fourth generation and third prince, was beaten to the point of cowardice by him.

When he came to the reception hall, Liu Bei was already sitting in the hall waiting.

"Xuande, what kind of wind is blowing today that brought you here?" Gongsun Zan laughed heartily.

Seeing Gongsun Zan appearing, Liu Bei got up to salute, and said with a smile, "After a long absence, brother is still so bold and powerful, I am so envious."

When they were studying, both Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei studied under Lu Zhi.Liu Bei didn't like reading, but liked dogs, horses, and fancy clothes. Gongsun Zan didn't stop, and often got into fights.

The two hit it off, and after several years of studying, they became better friends than brothers.

Gongsun Zan was seven years older than Liu Bei, so he often regarded himself as his elder brother.

In fact, Gongsun Zan did take good care of his 'brother'.

Back then when Liu Bei was the commander of Gao Tang, Gao Tang was attacked by thieves. Fearing that he would be implicated, Liu Bei took his two sworn brothers and ran thousands of miles to join Gongsun Zan.

Gongsun Zan was also quite upright, without saying a word, he gave Liu Bei the post of Sima in another department, which is a rank of a thousand stones.Later, the feudal lords begged for Dong, and Gongsun Zan took Liu Bei to meet the world, and later, he presented Liu Bei as Prime Minister of Pingyuan, which can be said to be very considerate.

When he came here this time, Liu Bei didn't go around in circles, saying that he came to rescue Tao Qian with soldiers.

Knowing what happened, Gongsun Zan groaned for a while, and persuaded Liu Bei: "Brother, Cao Cao is gaining momentum now, you have no grudges against him, and old Tao Qian didn't give you any favors, why bother helping him?"

But Liu Bei shook his head, and said firmly: "Bei has promised someone, and he dare not break his promise. If brother refuses, brother should borrow troops elsewhere."

Gongsun Zan was annoyed and funny about this, but Liu Bei couldn't be persuaded, so he had no choice but to agree: "If you really want to go, as a brother, I will naturally support you. Even if Cao Cao asks the teacher to punish him in the future, I may not be afraid of him."

"Brother Yu still wants to borrow Zhao Yun to accompany him."

"Okay, I'll lend it to you too!"

Gongsun Zan generously gave Liu Bei [-] soldiers and horses. Originally, he wanted to keep Liu Bei at his residence for dinner, but Liu Bei said that there would be no delay, so he took the soldiers and horses, said goodbye and left.

After Liu Bei left, a Confucian scholar with a sinister look came over.

"My lord, just now I was watching his words and demeanor in secret. This person is by no means a thing in the pool, so he should be dealt with as soon as possible."

Murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the Confucian scholar, and his tone was extremely cold: "My lord, you might as well send someone to intercept Liu Bei halfway, put the blame on Yuan Shao, and then use Guan and Zhang as vanguards. In this way, Jizhou can be won!"
