He was quite content with the offer, but his brothers were not inclined to trust Lü Bu. When the messenger from Lü Bu came, Liu Bei read the letter. Then Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao will fall before you, and you will be very powerful."įinding this advice good, Lü Bu sent letters to Liu Bei asking him to return.Īfter the flight of Liu Bei, Yuan Shu attacked Guangling and reduced Liu Bei's force by half. Rather ask Liu Bei to take up his quarters at Xiaopei as one of your wings and, when the time comes, let him lead the attack, both south and north. Yuan Shu is in possession of Shouchun and has a large army, well supplied. However, his adviser, Chen Gong, opposed this course, saying, "You should not. Lü Bu railed at what he called the breach of faith and was inclined to attack Yuan Shu himself. "Although Gao Shun had gone to attack Liu Bei, yet Liu Bei had not been destroyed, and no reward could be given till he was actually taken."

We three, by the Oath of the Peach Garden, swore to seek the same death day. In the last chapter it was recorded that Zhang Fei was about to end his life with his own weapon in Xuyi.īut Liu Bei rushed forward and caught Zhang Fei in his arms, snatched away the sword, and threw it on the earth, saying, "Brothers are as hands and feet wives and children are as clothing.
