The snow has not fallen, and the wind on the winter night is mixed with the wet and cold snow, making it difficult to fall asleep.

In the night, the steep mountain outlines seemed gloomy in the darkness. There were no birds singing and insects singing in the cold night. On the winding and difficult-to-go mountain road, small stones slipped down the hillside from time to time. People were walking carefully here. After that, someone came back from the front and pointed out a place. A group of more than 700 people found that place to rest.

"Who has the medicine to stop bleeding...the kind of people in Daqin who take effect quickly."

"I have…"

"Help me find a wooden stick, my mother's leg was broken... When fighting, I forgot to be... I was... "

The cavalry's last words "breaked by a spear of Jiangdong's comrade" were squeezed to his mouth, and he became a little choked. Around him, footsteps rustled through the snow and walked around, bandaging the wounds with the more injured companions. The lesser injuries were leaning against the cold tree studs and closing their eyes. He listened to the wind and movements around him, but he didn't dare to fall asleep.

On the cold night, with injuries on your body, it is easy to wake up again. At this time, I dare not raise the fire to keep warm. If the pursuers are still behind, it is easy to expose their whereabouts. On the entire semi-sloping hillside, people and war horses leaning against each other, and then they have a little warmth. Sun Ce sat alone next to a rock with a big gun, staring at the outline of the distant mountains in a daze. Although he was not injured, the pain in his heart at this time was even more intense than the current situation. The indignation gradually subsided, and his mind was full of buzzing chaos and noise. Next to him, his subordinates finally couldn't help crying: "Lord, we have been expeditioning for seven years in the West, many brothers died outside, and now the remaining brothers can't even go home... Why are those people?"

"What should I do... If I can't go back, where can we go?!"

"...... Go to the north, Governor Gongsun will always seek justice for us."

"How can I go so far? I have to pass through Liu Bei and Cao Cao's territory in the middle. So many of us run over to find a fight?"

The voice of his speech seemed powerless and painful. Whether it was Shanggu County, which was thousands of miles north, or to turn south and fight back, it had become two difficult questions. Zhou Yu walked quickly, his body was covered with blood, his right arm was wrapped in bandages, and his cuffs were stained with blood. Before the battle, he was ready to go back to Baqiu, took off his rukai, and after learning the news, he chased him directly. Fortunately, it was all skin trauma, which was not serious.

"Bo Fu, what are the plans next?" He sat down next to him, his voice a little hoarse.

Sun Ce gritted his teeth, his hands holding the gun were trembling slightly. When asked, his head felt uncomfortable as if he was knocked open. "I just want to... ask in person... Zhongmou... brother has been fighting for the country for several years... why did he fall to be killed by his own brother?" The grief surged, and he gritted his teeth and shouted loudly: "Is it just for the sake of Jiangdong that I want to kill my greatest brother? He wants it, I will give it to him."

"Then Yu made the decision without authorization." Zhou Yu patted his brother's hand and looked at the old man resting there, "General Huang, why did you come? Shouldn't you be in Changsha County?"

Huang Zhong opened his eyes and looked at the package behind him, "I have been fighting for too long and I am a little tired. I want to take my wife and children out to see the land I have worked hard to protect for most of my life."

"But..." He raised his eyes, looked at Zhou Yu, and laughed: "...... He also needs to return the world to a peaceful world first, so that more people will be alone like me in the future."

The two then looked at the figure that was huddled under a tree not far away. The man then smiled flatteringly and bowed: "Zhong has abandoned the darkness and turned to the light. I will follow you wherever you go. Even if you go to the north, I have long heard of the hero of the North Wolf King, and I admire you..." Then he asked in a low voice: "... Will you kill me to sacrifice the flag when you go?"

At this moment, the silent figure on the other side of the rock slowly stood up, his eyes red, filled with indescribable anger in the darkness, and he squeezed the gun into the ground with a heavy gun in his hand. The mud and snow were scattered everywhere, and he spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Okay, let's go north through Jingzhou and be the heroic soldiers for the governor to conquer the world!"

...

The sky is bright and the road is far away, Xiangyang is more than 300 miles away.

The news that the Wolf King was about to inspect the three armies in the spring of next year has spread in the city. Most of the people responded enthusiastically to such news, and some even wanted to set out to watch the north. After all, many of the soldiers from Jingzhou who returned from the expedition have seen it from afar. As laymen, they can see the good or bad of the other party's walking posture. Thinking about the fact that there are 170,000 such troops in the north, it can inevitably make people feel that the peace and prosperity are coming soon, but Liu Bei, who was sitting in the government office, felt that this was the most sad year-end in his half life.

Compared with the lively outside, the backyard of the government office seemed extremely deserted. Even the joy of having a son in middle age did not disperse Liu Bei's frown. In the main hall where the matter was discussed, the generals and civil servants sat there whispered to discuss countermeasures. After all, the wolf king Gongsun Zhi first had the prestige of taming the Huns, Xianbei, Wuhuan and other foreign tribes, and later had the record of defeating Yuan Shao's battle to plan. Now he has returned from the Western Expedition and has fought the Western barbarians to surrender. Once the prestige among the people and the families is growing, it is possible to be crowned with a crown and be driven by the general trend.

"It is better to keep your footsteps step by step if you worry about things that are far away in the sky." The feather fan shook lightly. At this time, the young military advisor closed his eyes lightly to sort out his thoughts in his mind, and then continued: "Now Jingzhou has fallen into the hands of the lord, and use this as the cornerstone to accumulate strength. What the lord wants to do now is to win over the returned group of heroic soldiers who have fought over."

"Although the military advisor is powerful, Wei Yan did not enter the country, either trained troops or rested. He had some gold, silver and wealth. He sent his wife and beautiful concubines over there, and the other party accepted it. He thanked him for a few words and said nothing... Alas." The person who said this was Mi Zhu in the nearby seat. Sun Qian, who was separated by a seat, nodded quite agreeingly: "......... It is indeed as Zi Zhong said, maybe after a while, the killing intention will get colder and he will get better."

Liu Bei nodded, temporarily putting aside the matter of winning over, and then talked about another thing: "All of you here are all the best people. You will fight with Bei and never leave him. Today, a piece of news came from Jiangdong. I don't want to hide it from everyone."

"Please speak, lord."

When the civil and military officials heard this, their backs were straightened. Guan Yu stroked his long beard and nodded in appreciation of his brother's words. Zhang Fei also slapped the table during the meal: "Brother, just say it directly. It's so hard to stop and stop."

"Sun Quan wrote to me and you all intercept a group of evil thieves who impersonate his brother Sun Ce's name."

When these words came out, a whisper of surprise sounded in the main hall, and someone stood up.

"Sun Quan is also an alliance with us." Guan Yu opened his eyes and raised his hands: "Although Guan disdains his character, he hopes to be a pioneer and stop these people."

Beside him, the figure with a leopard head with a ring-eyed leopard head also rose up: "A group of thieves, how can I need the second brother to take action? I will ask my brother to lead the fifty swallow cavalry under his command to capture them for the eldest brother to play with."

"Chang Yun has always been steady, Liang thought it would be better to leave this matter to Chang Yun." Zhuge Liang smiled and stood up, holding the feather fan, bowed: "It just so happened that the lord's worrying opportunity to break the deadlock is here."

Soon, the banquet dispersed and when everyone left the government office in groups of three or three, Liu Bei left Kong Ming alone, staring at each other with his eyes straight at the lights.

"The military advisor thought that was true?"

"It is inevitable." Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and walked through the fire, "...In fact, no matter whether it is true or not, as long as this group of people is intercepted, the lord can take this opportunity to prove to the people of the world that the wolf king in the north is just a false villain. As long as you slapped the other party's momentum, it will be beneficial to the lord."

Liu Bei frowned, moved his eyes away from him, and looked outside the open hall door: "If Sun Ce is true, then wouldn't Bei want to kill the loyal and good general... I can't bear it."

"If the lord wants to achieve hegemony and support the Han Dynasty... Could it be that it really depends on the kindness of a woman?"

The candlelight reflects the handsome face and becomes extinguished

The night wind was howling, and Zhang Fei, who was riding a horse in the street, suddenly shook from the drunkenness and slapped his forehead: "I almost got the words of Zhuge Liang."
