Long Xiang was confident and said: "Ji Ling strives for a quick victory and will not let the cavalry go first, which will easily reveal their whereabouts. I will take two cavalry on the road, each equipped with three horses. We can travel day and night to reach the destination in three days."

"What a fight." Tang Wei nodded solemnly, and then asked: "If you encounter Lu Bu's soldiers, how will you escape? If these hundreds of ships are set on fire, Xiapi will soon notice it, and Lu Bu will definitely send out exploration horses.

.”

"It doesn't matter. If we meet unexpectedly, we can just chase the enemy back." Long Xiang smiled slightly.

"If we are really chasing the enemy, why are there three people and nine horses?"

"Unfortunately, Paoze died in battle. We struggled to recapture some horses..."

Long Xiang answered without any pause. After hearing this, Tang Hui stared at him in surprise, and finally swallowed his saliva and sighed: "Yun Qi is so eloquent that he must have a perfect plan. Be careful when going to Xiaopei. I will ask people to go on the boat slowly. Remember

Leave early and come back early, I can't handle such a complicated matter."

"Don't worry, Uncle Wei, I'll be back in a few days." Long Xiang solemnly promised.

Before dawn the next day, Long Xiang set out on the road with two guards. They avoided towns along the way and switched horses to run day and night. In less than three days, they appeared outside Xiaopei City.

Riding a horse is actually a hard job. Long-term and severe shaking will make the rider's hips and hips numb. Long Xiang benefited from his young age, light body, high energy, and the fact that the horses were not bad, so he was able to persevere.

Long Xiang traveled in his previous life and tried horseback riding in Yunnan, Guizhou and Inner Mongolia. He found that a good horse is like a good car. The comfort of riding on it is completely different. The experience of riding a cheap, short and thin Yunnan horse is far inferior.

Tall and majestic Mongolian horse.

There are also differences between tall horses. A big horse with long legs and strong legs can run fast, but its endurance is not as good as a big horse with a strong and wide back. Moreover, a big horse with a wide back runs more smoothly and does not need to stand for a long time. You can really use something like

To describe it as walking on flat ground.

Because of the blessing from his previous life experience, Long Xiang chose wide-backed horses that are comfortable to ride on for this long journey.

Liu Bei failed to challenge Yuan Shu, but was stolen by Lu Bu. At that time, he ran to Haixi after encountering Long Xiang, and was helped by Mi Zhu, a wealthy businessman. Finally, he begged Lu Bu and returned to Xiaopei, and organized three to four thousand troops.

, Guan Yu is training intensively.

When he heard that Long Xiang had arrived in Xiaopei, Guan Yu put down his work and followed him to the government office.

Guan Yu was more thoughtful than Zhang Fei. Although Long Xiang had previously provided help in times of need, after careful consideration, he found that the other party behaved strangely. After all, this child was not from Hebei, and his respect for Liu Bei was really unexpected.

Especially recently, there were strange rumors in Xiapi that "Long Xiang was riding alone to retreat from Zhang Fei". Guan Yu was worried that Long Xiang would come looking for him again with ulterior motives.

As he strode into the front yard of the government office, Guan Yu heard Zhang Fei's rough laughter in the lobby, so he smoothed his beard, slowed down his pace, and walked over gently.

"Brother, I don't know. I was taking a bath by the river just now. Suddenly I heard the sound of thunder and drums. I thought it was a bandit soldier there who was invading the country. I went to meet him without even wearing any clothes. It turned out to be clouds rising, which made me happy for nothing."

"The third general is still so cheerful..."

"To be honest, I didn't have any armor at the time. If Yunqi drew his spear and stabbed me, I would probably have poked a few bloody holes."

"The third general was joking. I actually used all my strength to block your blow. How could I have any spare power to hurt you? Long Xiang is very self-aware..."

"Isn't it? Don't be modest, Yun Qi. I happen to be itchy. Let's have a discussion while you rest and have a rest. Then call the second brother."

"I'm really not humble. Long Xiang is the light of a firefly, how can he be as bright as the general and the bright moon? Didn't you hear some rumors?"

"Hahaha, there are some rumors in Xiapi recently, saying that Yunqi defeated Yide by riding alone, so the third brother is a little unconvinced..."

"How can such rumors be believed? Your Majesty, the three generals reported that what happened that day was witnessed by the subordinates of the last general. Later, when he returned to Shouchun, the rumors were distorted, but I didn't expect that the rumors in Xiapi were exaggerated. This was not what I meant at all.

, the three generals are not inferior to Lu Bu in martial arts, and General Guan is invincible in the world. How dare Long dare to compete with the two of them? It is a blessing to lead a horse to fall..."

"It's true that others are afraid of those three family slaves, but I, Zhang Fei, am not afraid."

"Yunqi is too humble..."

Before Liu Bei finished speaking, Guan Yu's green figure had already crossed the threshold. Long Xiang just happened to speak to his heart, so he clasped his fists in a good mood and called him big brother.

"General Guan." Long Xiang quickly stood up and saluted.

"Second brother is here." Liu Bei nodded slightly in greeting, then waved to Long Xiang and said: "Yunqi, please sit down quickly. Second brother, you should also sit down. As the saying goes, 'It's a great pleasure to have friends from far away.'"

Guan Yu showed off his robe and sat down. He looked at Long Xiang and asked meaningfully: "I see that General Long's face is haggard. The two attendants waiting outside the government office are leading eight horses. Could it be that he is changing horses and traveling day and night? There is an emergency."

Something?"

Long Xiang nodded solemnly and replied: "It turned out that there were three people and nine horses. Because they were rushing too fast on the road, one of them died. It's a big deal."

"What a big deal?" Liu Bei's smile suddenly froze. He wondered if Yuan Shu had proclaimed himself emperor? After thinking about it, it was unlikely.

Long Xiang shook his head gently, "No, Yuan Shu sent Ji Ling to command one hundred thousand troops, and they are marching towards Xiaopei in a mighty manner. You should ask for help early, otherwise you will be in danger..."

"One hundred thousand?" Liu Bei's muscles tensed, he turned to look at Guan Yu and asked, "Second brother, where are our scouts? Why is there no news at all?"

"Xiaopei's war horses are too few, and the scout patrol distance is not enough. As long as Ji Ling appears north of Pengcheng, our people can send back the news." Guan Yu replied solemnly.

Long Xiang added: "Ji Ling is traveling to Peijun, Yuzhou, and will not pass through the Pengcheng area at all. Based on the departure date, it is estimated that he will arrive in six or seven days."

"The city of Xiaopei is outnumbered, but it can withstand a hundred thousand soldiers..." Liu Bei stood up in a hurry, rubbing his hands and spinning around.

Zhang Fei grabbed Long Xiang's sleeve and asked, "Yunqi, how is Ji Ling's martial arts?"

"This man is a fierce general under Yuan Shu, but he is far inferior to the three generals..." Long Xiang shook his head.

Zhang Fei nodded naively, then stood up and comforted Liu Bei, saying, "Brother, I heard it too. That Ji Ling guy is mediocre in martial arts, so I'll just go and retreat from the enemy."

"Third brother, there are still 100,000 soldiers. Can you finish stabbing with the eight-foot-long snake spear?" Guan Yu stood up and reminded.

When Long Xiang saw the three of them getting up, he was too embarrassed to sit down. When Liu Bei saw him standing up, it was like seeing a bright light in the dark night.

Liu Bei rushed forward, held Long Xiang's hand tightly with both hands, and asked: "Last time, Yunqi sent help in the snow, and now I came from afar to send a message. Liu Bei is really grateful. Now Xiaopei is in danger and doesn't know where to go."

Asking for help?"

"Ji Ling is here in a hurry, so I'd better ask Lu Bu for you." Long Xiang sweated on his forehead, sighing that his grip was still strong.

"Looking for Lu Bu again? Humph, my eldest brother is a member of the Han clan, how can I repeatedly ask for help from those slaves with three surnames?" Zhang Fei turned around and stamped his feet in anger.

"Third brother." Guan Yu said in a deep voice and leaned over.

When they heard the request to Lu Bu, both Guan and Zhang brothers were displeased. Only Liu Bei's expression remained unchanged. He asked softly: "Ji Lingtong has an army of 100,000. Is it useful to ask Lu Bu for help? We don't even have 50,000 troops in total..."
