Chapter 445: No drinking

When Lu Bu's head was carried on by a bracelet by a knife and axe driver, Liu Bei said with great distress: "What a pity... It's a pity... Lu Bu is also a hero of a generation..."

Zhang Fei also sighed and said, "I really looked down on Lu Bu before. In order to survive, this person could beg for his elder brother with a humble attitude. But now I began to admire him, at least just now, he died like a real man, and deserves respect!"

Guan Yu was secretly happy that Lu Bu's Fangtian Painted Galactic and Red Rabbit Horse will be his own in the future. With the benefits of Red Rabbit Horse, his military power will be greatly improved. The days of invincibility in the world are not far away! After hearing what Liu Bei and Zhang Fei said, he hypocritically: "Lu Bu was once an important minister of the court after all, so let's bury him with great burial."

Liu Bei then ordered a Fengshui treasure land outside Xiapi City to bury Lu Bu. On the day of the funeral, in addition to the funeral crowd arranged by Liu Bei, Lu Bu's wife and daughter were mourning in sheep and mourning, and she was full of tears from beginning to end.

After the funeral, Liu Bei sent someone to give Lu Bu's wife and daughter some money to comfort her. Lu Bu's wife later took her daughter back to Lu Bu's hometown Wuyuan, living a farming life. From then on, she was free from the world and spent the rest of her life safely.

After Zhou Yu defeated Lu Bu, he temporarily rested in Xiaopei for a few days. After the news of Lu Bu being captured alive by Guan Yu and being beheaded by Liu Bei in Xia Pi came, Zhang Liao, who was recovering from the wounded, could not sit still. He pulled Xu Huang to the outside of the city, found a remote forest, faced the direction of Xia Pi City, knelt down three times, and cried and said in tears: "May the general rest in the spirit of heaven~~ walk all the way~~" After returning to the city, Xu Huang found three feet of white cloth, and the two pulled it apart and tied it around their waists, which was considered to be a filial piety for Lu Bu.

After Zhou Yu learned about it, he sighed deeply: "Wen Yuan and Gong Ming are really affectionate people. Lu Bu treats them like this, but he still keeps mourning for Lu Bu. I admire him..."

Zhou Yu attacked Xiaopei this time mainly to subdue Zhang Liao and Xu Huang, and weakened Lu Bu's power by the way. Unexpectedly, with the cooperation of Liu Bei, Lu Bu's Bingzhou Army disappeared from then on, and indirectly helped Cao Cao a favor so that he could concentrate on dealing with Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shu in the south. However, Zhou Yu did not regret it, because on the second day after the news of Lu Bu's death, Zhang Liao, accompanied by Xu Huang, came to Zhou Yu's residence in person to surrender.

Zhou Yu was a little anxious, and was about to arrange a few wise men to persuade Zhang Liao and Xu Huang. When he saw the two of them coming to join us today, he was immediately overjoyed and appointed them as generals, Zhang Liao as generals of the bandits, and Xu Huang as generals of Hengye. Zhou Yu also announced the establishment of the Bingzhou camp, with Zhang Liao as the main general and Xu Huang as the deputy general. Based on the hundreds of Bingzhou surrendered troops in this battle, he gathered the scattered Bingzhou soldiers, and then recruited new soldiers from all over the city and rural areas of Xiaopei to form a unit of 3,000.

Xiaopei is a densely populated city, and many people live in scattered around it. Because the Yangzhou army was treated very well, and it has not violated the people in the past few days, it has gained a certain reputation. Within a few days, thousands of young and strong men came to join the army from all over the countryside. With the Bingzhou scattered soldiers gathered by Xu Huang, there were more than 5,000 people in the Bingzhou camp.

Liu Bei was not relieved by Zhou Yu, worried that he would not leave if he occupied Xiaopei, so he sent envoys to work hard from time to time, giving ten pigs today and one hundred jars of good wine tomorrow. That was very clear. Thanks to your army for destroying Lu Bu and you can go back at any time.

Zhou Yu naturally knew Liu Bei's thoughts, but he didn't want to go back so quickly. If he delayed more days and put some pressure on Liu Bei, why not do it? Zhou Yu dragged it until the successful establishment of the Bingzhou Camp. The scouts sent to explore all the mountains and rivers around Xiaopei clearly and painted a geographical map of the mountains and rivers, and then returned to Shouchun.

Liu Bei then breathed a sigh of relief and said to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei: "Second brother, third brother, Zhou Yu... is difficult to deal with. In the future, he will become our most powerful enemy like Cao Cao."

Guan Yu raised his eyebrows and said unhappily: "Brother always improves others' ambitions and destroys his own majesty. Some time ago, I always said how powerful Lu Bu was, but I was captured alive by me? Now I praise Zhou Yu again, and I will see that I will capture him alive another day!"

Liu Bei had a faint smile on his face and said, "Hehe, that's fine. But second brother, don't underestimate the enemy..."

After Zhou Yu's army returned to Shouchun, after a few days of rest, Zhang Liao's injuries had basically healed, so he often pulled Zhang Liao and Xu Huang to have tea and chat in the study. Zhou Yu knew that if they wanted them to surrender to themselves wholeheartedly, they must let them fully understand their ideas and then support themselves, and were willing to die for everyone's common goal.

One day, after coming out of Zhou Yu's residence, he saw a group of geese flying by in the sky. Zhang Liao said to Xu Huang with emotion: "Gongming, I originally thought that the lord had sat in such a good position because of his family background. Now it seems that I was wrong. The lord is very talented and has a strong heart to help the world. The civil servants and generals under the lord are all fierce and fierce, and they are very united with each other. Just like the geese in the sky, under the leadership of the leading geese, everyone flies in the same direction and unites and helps each other. Only such a team has hope!"

Xu Huang followed Zhang Liao's gaze, stared at Yanqun for a few glances, nodded and replied: "Wen Yuan's words are reasonable. The Bingzhou army in the past was too disunited, and we fought each other all the time. This time we decisively joined the lord's account. It seems that we were taking the right move."

"Yes, and it's a critical step!" Zhang Liao shouted excitedly, holding Xu Huang's hand, "Let's go! I'll invite you to drink! I can't drink when I recover from my injuries these days, but I'm so suffocated."

Xu Huang turned his eyes and said with a smile: "The three hundred female soldiers in the female barracks are all heroic. I heard that you have a close relationship with their commander, haha~~"

"Are you talking about Miss Yang Ci? Stop talking nonsense, I am a defeated general, I have recently been arguing with me. How could she, such a beautiful girl, fall in love with me?" Zhang Liao's words were a little helpless.

Xu Huang laughed and said, "Wenyuan, you are a young hero, with a handsome appearance. I don't know how many girls are fascinated by you. In my opinion, Miss Yang Ci is also very interesting to you, you should hurry up~~"

Zhang Liao and Xu Huang walked into a wine shop with a chat and laughter. After weighing two pounds of beef, asking for a jar of wine, they started drinking. Zhang Liao picked up the thick porcelain wine bowl, and just touched Xu Huang, and was about to drink it all, suddenly someone rushed in and grabbed the wine bowl from Zhang Liao's hand.

Zhang Liao was about to get angry. When he looked closely, he saw the person who came in purple, tall, wheat-colored skin, dark eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and a heroic spirit while looking around. Isn’t Yang Ci, the female barrack commander who took care of him personally these days or who?

I know what happens next, and listen to the next chapter to explain it.
