Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 398 Liu Bei and the Three
After all military affairs were arranged, everyone walked out of the tent under the leadership of Yuan Shao.

Looking at the armies gathering in all directions with flags flying, Yuan Shao was extremely excited.

"We gather our forces here together... together..."

Yuan Shao was halfway through his words when he suddenly looked at Liu He.

"I wonder how many troops Governor Liu brought this time?"

Just as Liu He was about to speak, Yuan Shu's sarcastic voice sounded again.

"How many soldiers can he have? I think he has no more than 10,000 people at most. He has been fighting against a group of barbarians for years. I guess his equipment and military appearance are just ordinary stuff. It's not worth mentioning. How can they compare with my Huaiyang elite division?"

Liu He ignored him and bowed to Yuan Shao, saying, "Master, I lead more than 50,000 troops and stationed in the north of the camp here."

Yuan Shao's eyes lit up: "Xian Zhao also brought 50,000 troops?"

"That's right, would you like to go and inspect it?"

Yuan Shao was somewhat tempted, but after thinking it over, he finally backed off.

"There is no need for a review. How could a descendant of the royal family lie? This way, our allied army will have 370,000 troops. It will be just a matter of time before we can break through Tiger's Den and capture the thief Dong alive!"

"General Liu is indeed very powerful!"

"We admire you so much, so much!"

Everyone was praising Liu He and leaving Yuan Shu alone, which made him almost vomit blood in anger.

Liu He waved his hand and said modestly: "It's not worth mentioning. As Gong Lu said, this is a remote place, not as prosperous as the Central Plains. We have troops but in terms of military appearance and combat effectiveness, it is hard to compare with you gentlemen."

When Yuan Shu heard that he had admitted it, his expression immediately became much better.

Everyone laughed at Liu He's words. Except for Ding Yuan, the others did not believe that Liu He's army was really short of clothes and armor, but they did not expect the equipment to be so sophisticated and the army to be so strong. Everyone quickly changed the topic and talked about some things related to the battle.

Guan Yu and others saw Liu He coming out and came to greet him together.

"Brother, how is it?"

Liu He smiled and said, "Don't worry, everything is under control."

Upon hearing this, several people breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's go back to the barracks and rest. It won't be long before we face a major war. Although we have already made plans, it is better to be well prepared."

Everyone returned to the Anmin Army's barracks and after arranging for the soldiers to rest on the spot, a few of them chatted in the big tent.

Suddenly, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and the gate guard ran in and knelt down to report.

"My lord, there are three people outside the camp asking to see you! They claim to be Liu Bei, the magistrate of Linji County in Anle Army, and they are here with two sworn brothers to see you!"

Liu He suddenly pricked up his ears: "Who? Liu Bei? Did you hear it right?"

The guard replied solemnly: "My lord, it is Liu Bei!"

"Okay, okay, we finally got him. Please come into the tent!"

Guan Yu asked curiously: "Brother, who is this Liu Bei? Why is he so worthy of your attention?"

Liu He looked at Guan Yu and smiled mysteriously.

"Brother, have you forgotten that a few years ago, I asked my two uncles Zhang and Su to take thousands of kilograms of fine iron to find a man named Liu Bei in Zhuo County, Youzhou, and asked them to give him the fine iron to help him start an army if he was a wise man. Later, my uncles replied that this man claimed to be a relative of the Han Dynasty, but his family had fallen on hard times. He had always had a good reputation among the neighbors and was kind and righteous, so they respected my request and gave him the fine iron."

Guan Yu and others only then remembered.

"So it's him. I've always been curious about how you knew there was such a person in Zhuo County."

Liu He smiled cheerfully: "We are both descendants of Emperor Gaozu. The world is in chaos now, so Emperor Gaozu would have some suggestions."

Guan Yu and others thought this made sense and did not pursue the matter further.

At this time, the guard also brought Liu Bei and the other two into the big tent.

"Liu Bei greets Governor Liu and all the generals!"

Liu He did not answer immediately, but took a close look at the original historical Emperor Zhaolie of Han.

This Liu Bei was exactly as recorded in the books, nearly eight feet tall, with a face like a jade, lips as red as rouge, and although his earlobes did not reach his shoulders, they were obviously much larger than those of ordinary people. His hands naturally reached his knees, his expression was very gentle, and his eyes were unusually bright.

"System, check Liu Bei's attributes."

"Ding... Liu Bei, the founding monarch of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period, originally had the top attributes in history: Command 90, Military Strength 89, Intelligence 92, Politics 93."

"Liu Bei's current attributes: Command 63, Military Strength 74, Intelligence 81, Politics 62, Special Attributes: Knowing People - He is good at judging people, is good at discovering their strengths and weaknesses, and is easy to win their hearts. Special Skills: None." "Oh? This is a pleasant surprise. Liu Bei actually has a special attribute. Even I don't have it. But this attribute is suitable. Liu Bei's ability to judge people, judge people, and win their hearts is indeed first-class."

Liu Bei was stared at by him for a long time and couldn't help feeling a little nervous, especially the dark-faced and bearded man behind him who became even more impatient.

"Hey, why are you staring at my brother? My brother greeted me and you didn't even respond. You really have no manners!"

His business was so huge that it made Liu He and others' ears ring. Liu He didn't react much, but Guan Yu and others immediately disagreed.

"Who are you to be so rude to my elder brother?"

"Hey, listen carefully, I am..."

"Yide, don't be rude!"

Liu He finally came to his senses and looked at the two people behind him.

"Strange, I poached Guan Yu, so how come he still has the Peach Garden Oath of Brotherhood? Zhang Fei is fine, but who is this guy?"

However, even though he was confused, he couldn't just leave them alone, so he quickly invited the three of them to sit down.

Liu Bei sat down, and Zhang Fei and another person stood behind him.

"I have long admired your great name and have wanted to meet you many times, but I have never had the chance. I heard that you are also coming to the alliance, so I came here with my classmate and good friend Gongsun Zan. I am here to visit you today to thank you for your support."

Liu He waved his hand: "It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning. You and I are both descendants of the Han Dynasty, we should support each other and work together to save the country. What He did was all out of public interest, why should I say anything else?"

Liu Bei had an expression of admiration on his face, and the two people behind him also looked at Liu He with a little more respect in their eyes.

"Liu Taishou is a young talent who cares about the people and the country. He is really a blessing to the Han Dynasty. But I have a question. A few years ago, I was just a peddler in Lousang Village. You have already made a great name in Langtiao County. How do you know my name?"

Liu He did not give a direct answer, but just smiled.

"If I say that it was Emperor Gaozu who gave me this advice in a dream, I wonder if Xuande would believe it?"

Liu Bei was stunned, obviously not expecting Liu He to answer like this, but after thinking about it, it seemed that this was the most reasonable answer.

"This... Emperor Gaozu is a spirit, how can I not believe it? But I never thought that, with my humble status, Emperor Gaozu would actually send a message to you in his dream. I am really terrified. But no matter what, you have done me a great favor. If you have any orders in the future, I will not hesitate."

"Haha, Lord Xuande, you are too polite. Now that the traitor Dong has rebelled and held the emperor and father hostage, you and I, as members of the royal family, should work together to eliminate the treacherous villains and restore a bright and clean government for the Han Dynasty. That would be the best reward."

Liu Bei's expression was somewhat moved. He immediately stood up, walked to Liu He, and bowed deeply.

"Oh my, Lord Xuande, what are you doing? Please get up quickly."

After Liu He helped him up, he looked at the two people behind him.

"I haven't asked yet, who are these two heroes..."

Liu Bei slapped his forehead and said apologetically: "Oh, I was confused for a moment and forgot to introduce them. This one's surname is Jiang Huan, with the courtesy name Wude, and this one's surname is Zhang Fei, with the courtesy name Yide. The two of them share the same interests as me, and we have become sworn brothers and raised the army together. If it weren't for their help, I would never be where I am today."

"So you are the two heroes Jiang Huan and Zhang Fei. Nice to meet you."

After Liu He greeted the other party, he introduced Cui Jun, Guan Yu, Cheng Liang, Zhang Yong, Ye Xiang and Gao Shun one by one.

He was searching his mind, trying to find when the name Jiang Huan had appeared in the Three Kingdoms period, but Jiang Huan spoke first.

"My boy Jiang Huan, I would like to thank Governor Liu for avenging my family!"

Liu He was completely confused.

"Revenge? Where does that come from?"

"Replying to Governor Liu, I have been a military commander of Yunzhong County since my grandfather's time. Five years ago, Yunzhong County was defeated and lost, and the entire army fell under the iron hoofs of the Xianbei. There are 36 people in my family, and only I escaped. The rest all died tragically."

"I see. You look handsome, and you are indeed a hero of your generation. After you get rid of Dong Zhuo, I will present a memorial to the court to commend your father and grandfather."

Jiang Huan hadn't finished yet: "I would like to ask the governor, I wonder if Mr. Xu Kang and Mr. Xu Wen'an came with you to Suanzao this time?"

"Hmm? Mr. Xu? Why are you asking him? Is he an old acquaintance of yours?"

"To the governor, after I escaped from the clouds, I traveled a long distance and did not eat for several days. Fortunately, I met Mr. Xu, who took me in and treated my illness and wounds. That is why I am still alive today."

After hearing this, Liu He was a little surprised and astonished.

"So there is such a thing? I have never heard Mr. Xu mention it before. So, we are destined to meet. Mr. Xu is old and frail. He has been taking care of the herb garden with his grandson in Yanmen. It is inconvenient for him to come from afar, so he is not in the army. If there is a chance in the future, I will introduce you to him."

When Jiang Huan heard that Mr. Xu was not there, he was a little disappointed.

"Yes, I was not thoughtful enough. I will visit you again when I have the chance in the future."
