Guan Yu's return immediately boosted the morale of the soldiers in Linjiang City. Liu Bei cheered up like never before, personally led his army out of the city to meet Guan Yu, preparing to attack Guan Yu forward and backward to defeat the enemy's invasion.

"Hmph, in the Battle of Red Cliff, our army suffered a lot of losses, with nearly 100,000 soldiers and more than 50 generals. Even Fu Hu died in battle. It is the heaviest loss in my life. If it weren't for the return of my second brother, I would have no chance of any ambition in my life. Now that my second brother returns, my life is full of hope again. At that time, the three of us brothers made a country with bare hands, not to mention that there are tens of thousands of soldiers and millions of people in Yizhou now. Sun Quan, I must pay back what you did to me before!"

Liu Bei spread his two swords in his hand and charged forward in person. Seeing this, his soldiers immediately had a great morale. He reached the peak in just a moment. They all rushed up with screams and fought desperately with the enemy.

"Brother, third brother!" Seeing Liu Bei and Zhang Fei leading the crowd out from afar, Guan Yu's tiger eyes rolled in tears and immediately rushed over. The Qinglong Yanyue Sword in his hand was even more murderous intent. In a moment, hundreds of enemy soldiers had been killed.

"Second brother, second brother, yell..."

Seeing Guan Yu approaching, Zhang Fei was also very excited. He was overjoyed and roared wildly. His roar was different from ordinary people, because he had the skill of "Shocking the Sky" and the use of this skill required very strict conditions, but its power was very terrifying. Under this roar, the skill was immediately exerted, which not only led to the decline in combat power and morale of the Jiangdong Army, but also caused tens of thousands of people to escape.

Originally, under the impact of Guan Yu, the Jiangdong Army's formation was already in chaos. Now Liu Bei and Zhang Fei led the crowd to kill, forming a front-and-back attack with Guan Yu, which made the Jiangdong Army even more miserable. In particular, Zhang Fei successfully used his skill "Shocking Roar", which led to a decline in morale and combat power in the army. Ten thousand people fled, almost in a defeat. Seeing this, the commander of the army, Cheng Pu could only helplessly lead the army to retreat.

"Haha, as soon as the second brother came, our army immediately turned defeat into victory. This is really a matter of heaven. My Han Dynasty," Zhang Fei was too lazy to chase him. He came to Guan Yu and said with a loud laugh. However, he looked at Liu Bei, who was also smiling, and said with a favorable smile: "Of course, if the second brother doesn't come, we will eventually defend Linjiang, but it is definitely not as easy as today's victory. Second brother, you don't know that we all miss you to death during these days when you are not here. By the way, how did you escape from Liu and Xiaoer? Let me tell me."

At this time, Liu Bei ordered the troops to withdraw his troops and returned to the city, and was also by Guan Yu's side. He was also interested in Zhang Fei's questions and looked at Guan Yu with anticipation.

"Brother, third brother, I'm not hiding you. This time it was not me who escaped, but Qin Duke released me back. Qin Duke thought that we were all relatives of the Han Dynasty. He suggested that we join forces to eliminate the princes of different surnames first. To show sincerity, Qin Duke specially expressed his support to the emperor and conferred the eldest brother as Shu Duke. Oh, I forgot to introduce it," Guan Yu pointed to Deng Zhi, who was dressed as a personal soldier beside him and said, "Brother, this is Deng Zhi and Deng Bomiao. He was ordered by Duke Qin to escort my younger brother to Shu and sent the emperor's enthronement edict together. In addition, the thousand soldiers accompanying me were also borrowed by Mr. Deng from the prefect of Badong Du Xi. If they had not had their strong momentum, I'm afraid that even if I came to Linjiang City, I would have died in the enemy."

Then Deng Zhi bowed slightly, saluted Liu Bei, and expressed his sincerity to cooperate with Liu Bei.

When Liu Bei heard that Liu He had insisted that he was the Duke of Shu, he was immediately overjoyed because he had just lost to Sun Quan before. It can be said that his reputation fell to a low point. Even if he repelled Cheng Pu's attack, he still could not stop his reputation in Shu, and it might even cause civil unrest. However, now he has been named Duke of Shu, which is different. This will make his reputation more than before. Not only will there be no crisis, but it will also facilitate uniting the military and civilians, concentrating his strength to fight with Sun Quan and regain the lost land.

So Liu Bei was naturally very polite to Deng Zhi. At the same time, he also praised Liu He fiercely, and even called Liu He his brother without any moral integrity, and told him about his origins under Liu Yu, Youzhou.

But Zhang Fei was a little unhappy. The one he hated the most about the heroes in the world was naturally Lu Bu, but the second one was Liu He, who believed that Liu He was insidious and cunning, and he looked down on him very much. However, for Liu He put his second brother back, he didn't say anything else.

Afterwards, Liu Bei decisively restored Guan Yu's position and appointed Guan Yu as the prefect of Ba County, ordering him to lead his army to guard the eastern defense line, and then returned to Chengdu with Deng Zhi to discuss the alliance with Liu He.

As soon as Liu Bei arrived in Chengdu, he summoned Zhuge Liang, Fa Zheng, Zhang Song and others to discuss the alliance with Liu He. Zhuge Liang actually had a lot of complaints about this, because Zhuge Liang could see that Liu He was definitely not so kind to help Liu Bei. He did this now just to buy people's hearts and encouraged Shuzhong to go to war with Jiangdong in an all-round way. Then Liu He took the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and gained benefits. Therefore, Zhuge Liang advocated giving up grudges, re-aligning with Sun Quan, and jointly fighting against Liu He.

However, Liu Bei was very dissatisfied with this and said seriously: "In terms of great sense, my brother Liu and I are relatives of the Han Dynasty. We should support each other, eliminate the princes of different surnames, and realize the revival of our Han Dynasty. From the perspective of personal affairs, Sun Quan's son repeatedly did not speak of faith and shameless attacks, which became our constraints, and how many major plans did we turn into flowing water? In the Battle of Red Cliff, our army suffered heavy casualties and was almost destroyed. If I don't avenge such a deep bloody hatred, how can I face the soldiers of the three armies? What's more, Sun Quan's son is leading his army to attack our Yizhou land. Although the northern part of Yizhou is temporarily temporarily

It is stable, but Sun Quan personally commanded Taishi Ci from Jiaozhou to attack the southern part of Yizhou. And with their support, Meng Huo and others from the Southern Barbarian tribe rebelled. How could I surrender at this time? Kongming no longer had to persuade him. The alliance between our army and Liu He brothers was inevitable. I was going to use Yide as the prefect of Ba County and transfer Yun Chang back, Yun Chang as the general and Kong Ming as the military advisor to lead the army to fight against the rebellion of Meng Huo in southern Yizhou, and then take back the four counties of Jiaozhou and Jingnan. At that time, if Sun Quan's son intends to reconcile with me, I might still consider it."

"No, Liang will definitely not let down the lord's expectations and quell the rebellion of the Southern Barbarians. However, the lord needs to carefully consider the alliance with Liu He, or even if he agrees at the moment, he must be careful in the future and never fall into his tricks."
