After Liu Bei escaped, he recalled his actions that harmed the people and knew that the people of Xinye would never support him again.
As such, the assets that he had painstakingly built up in Jing State over the years were basically all gone.
With all the soldiers dead and the hearts of the people lost, it would be extremely difficult for them to survive in Jing State.
Perhaps, even Liu Qi would be disappointed and wary of him if he knew.
Under such circumstances, if he were to send his family and newborn son to their deaths, it would no longer be able to move the people of Xinye and gain him a good reputation.
When the future was uncertain, one's ambition would be smaller. When one's ambition was smaller, one would have a sense of being short of breath and the things they pursued would be lower by a few grades.
As for Liu Bei, he subconsciously pursued the idea of continuing the family line, so he wanted to protect his two wives and his son, Ah Dou.
However, Liu Bei had just bragged in front of everyone, asking Zhao Yun to protect his family and not leave the Xinye people. Now that he had suddenly changed his mind, not only would he lose the hearts of the Xinye people, but he would also make his subordinates dislike him.
Just as he was thinking, Jian Yong caught up from behind and gasped,""Xuande! Bad news! Cao Cao's army has forced the Xinye people back. Our wives and children are among them. I'm afraid we'll be discovered by Cao Cao sooner or later! If we are discovered, we will all be controlled by others. How can we dare to compete with Cao Cao in the future?”
Liu Bei was shocked!
If all the Xinye citizens were driven back to the city, then there would be no possibility of saving his wife and children!
After pondering for a moment, Liu Bei suddenly knelt on the ground. He lowered his head and placed his hands on the ground, kneeling in the direction of Xinye.
The sound of crying gradually rose. Liu Bei's nearly 50-year-old body showed a touch of sadness and desolation.
"I know that Zilong has the Dragon Gentian in his abdomen and has the ability to repel millions of enemies with his strength alone. Therefore, I want to use our wives and children to stimulate Zilong's fighting spirit and make Zilong raise his spear and ride on his horse to intimidate the Cao bandits and protect the people of Xinye!”
"Who would have thought that in the end, man's plan would not be as good as God's. Zilong could not stop Cao Cao, and now they are all going to fall into Cao Cao's hands! I have no soldiers, I might as well commit suicide!”
Zhuge Liang was stunned,"Are you blaming Zilong?"
However, before he could speak up for Zhao Yun, he saw Liu Bei pull out his sword, ready to slash it across his neck.
Zhao Yun was an honest person after all. She was so frightened that she grabbed him and cried at the same time.
"It's my fault, it's all my fault! My lord trusted Zilong so much and ordered him around with millions of troops, but I didn't have the ability to protect you. It's all my fault!”
"I will mount my horse and charge back. I must order myself around like a million people to defeat the Cao army and save all the families!”
As she said that, Zhao Yun mounted her horse. Her eyes revealed a look of madness as she held the silver spear in one hand and gripped the spear shaft with a loud clang!
Zhuge Liang was dumbfounded,"No matter how fierce Zilong is, he can only save the lord's family. How can he save everyone's family?"
However, just as he was about to persuade Liu Bei, he heard Liu Bei start crying again!
"Zilong, you can't go! There are hundreds of people in the family. How can you save them all by yourself? Too many people had died today. They couldn't die for nothing anymore! Women were like clothes, brothers were like hands and feet! Let my family be small and go with everyone else!”
Everyone's eyes were filled with tears.
Jian Yong also burst into tears." Liu Bei is so kind. We have to repay him. We can abandon our families, but we can't lose Liu Bei's family. Zilong, please!"
"Please!"
"Please!"
……
With just a few words, not only did Zhao Yun promise to save them, but the others also took the initiative to only save Liu Bei's family!
Zhuge Liang couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine at Liu Bei's ability to control people.
Seeing everyone like this, Zhao Yun felt a sense of pride, so she cupped her fists and promised,"No matter how difficult it is, I must save my lord's family. If not, I will commit suicide!”
After Zhao Yun left, Zhuge Liang stole a glance at Liu Bei. Seeing that Liu Bei's mood had calmed down very quickly and that the grief from before had disappeared, he could not help but sigh in his heart.
"In order to save his family, the lord is really going to do anything! If he hadn't sent Guan Yu to Jiangxia, with Guan Yu's prestige in the Cao army, he would have been able to make the Cao army not dare to chase after him! However, the lord actually pushed the blame of the loss of their families to Zilong and forced Zilong to go back and save them!”
"Zilong is brave, but he is still alone. If he wants to save the lord's family, he will need a miracle!”
……
Zhao Yun soon caught up to the Xinye troops. After killing the hundreds of tiger leopard cavalry behind her, she immediately mixed into the crowd and anxiously searched for Madam Gan and Madam Mei.
However, the commoners had seen Liu Bei's actions clearly. Now that Zhao Yun asked, no one responded!
Fortunately, he had accidentally bumped into Jian Yong's wife, who had been in a bad situation. That was why he had secretly told him that the two madams and Liu Chan had been taken away by Xiahou Dun and were being escorted to the rear.
Hearing this, Zhao Yun immediately charged out, sweeping away many tiger leopard cavalry.
Not long after, he saw the two madams in front of him being urged by a general to hurry on. Without saying a word, he directly rushed forward with a loud shout.
"It's Zhao Yun! Why is this god of death here?"
Xiahou Dun turned around and saw that it was Zhao Yun charging at him. He could not help but feel his scalp go numb. However, he had no choice but to fight with all his might. At the same time, he asked his followers to immediately find someone to help.
Zhao Yun was eager to save Xiahou Dun, so she went all out. She raised her spear and swept it quickly. Soon, Xiahou Dun was flustered.
"This person is really powerful. Who can help me?”
The surrounding Tiger Leopard Cavalry used to be generals in the army, and they were all quite skilled. However, at this moment, Zhao Yun and Xiahou Dun's warhorses were practically biting each other's tails as they charged in circles. The other warhorses could not enter the arena. Moreover, the two of them fought frequently, and the battle was dazzling. There was really no one with such martial arts skills who could interfere in a battle of this level!
After twenty rounds, Xiahou Dun completely gave up on attacking and switched to a defensive stance. But even so, he was repeatedly stabbed by Zhao Yun. Soon, he was covered in blood and could only defend his vital points.
In a moment of desperation, some of the Tiger Leopard Cavalry finally thought of holding the two madams hostage and roared at Zhao Yun!
"Zhao Yun! If you dare to attack again, we will kill Liu Bei's wife and children!”
As expected, Zhao Yun stopped when she heard the voice. She held her spear diagonally on her back and stared at the crowd. However, her entire body was still accumulating momentum. It was as if she was about to unleash a thunderous attack at any moment to kill and save people!
Although Xiahou Dun did not want to threaten Zhao Yun like this, he could only let his subordinates do whatever they wanted in order to complete his mission.
Fortunately, Xiahou Yuan and the others didn't arrive, but Cao Cao and Guo Yu did.
"Sir, it's him! It was Zhao Yun! Why is he here?"
Cao Cao was overjoyed. He had been thinking about how he could recruit Guo Yu now that he couldn't even touch Zhao Yun's shadow, let alone recruit Zhao Yun.
However, at this moment, he finally knew that Guo Yu did not lie to him. He had a well-thought-out plan!
"Zhao Yun is loyal and righteous. How could he abandon Liu Bei's family?" Guo Yu chuckled. I knew he would catch up! Prime Minister, please wait patiently and see me subdue him today!”
