The Three Kingdoms: The strategist will stop, and Rome will be unified

Chapter 143 Help Liu Bei quit gambling addiction
So, Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei and Guan Yu and said in a deep voice, "Second brother, third brother, are you willing to believe in elder brother?"

Seeing Liu Bei's appearance, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei all showed doubts. They didn't know what Liu Bei's idea was. They looked at each other and said, "Brother, of course we believe you!"

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei looked at Liu Bei one after another, only to see a trace of determination in Liu Bei's eyes, and said in a deep voice, "I want to gamble!"

Both of them showed doubts, and they didn't understand what Liu Bei meant at all.

Zhang Fei has a rather impatient personality, so he asked directly and loudly: "Brother, now is the juncture, don't be fooled, tell me, what do you want to bet on?"

Seeing Liu Bei's hesitant look, Zhang Fei was stomped angrily by Liu Bei.

"Brother, you are making me anxious to death, just tell me!"

This is a coincidence, Liu Bei said with twinkling eyes: "I want to bet that Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao will cease fighting within three days!"

The two showed surprised expressions, but Zhang Fei directly vetoed it: "Brother, no way, how can we leave our lives in the hands of others!"

"Then Yuan Shao is not a good person either!"

On the other hand, Guan Yu showed a hint of hesitation. When he thought about it, Liu Bei's words reminded him a little.

It took only a moment for Guan Yu to react.

"Brother, what do you mean!!"

Seeing Guan Yu's expression, Liu Bei knew that Guan Yu had understood his intentions, so he nodded solemnly.

Zhang Fei, on the other hand, was confused and shouted directly: "Brother and Brother, are you two playing riddles for me here?"

Seeing Zhang Fei's impatient expression, Guan Yu didn't panic at all, and said calmly, "Brother, this is betting that Yuan Shao will force a truce with that Gongsun Zan after he knows that Cao Cao is attacking us!"

"If our Xuzhou also falls into the hands of Cao Cao, Yuan Shao will be the only one in the north bordering Cao Cao."

"Then from now on, Cao Cao will definitely attack Yuan Shao!"

Liu Bei nodded, his eyes flickering.

"The so-called death of lips and teeth, if Yuan Shao knew the news, he would force a truce to support us. Although we are only half of Xuzhou, we can still play a very important role in the war!"

"If Yuan Shao helps us, it will be good for them and not bad."

Zhang Fei on the side scratched his head, obviously he still didn't fully understand, but only understood the general meaning.

Although he usually does things rough and fine, but when it comes to discussing the art of war, he really doesn't know much.

"As long as Cao Cao doesn't launch a strong attack on the city, then we still have a chance!"

Liu Bei looked at the two and said.

Having already said this, Guan Yu could only nod his head and said in a deep voice: "In this case, let's take a bet with Big Brother!"

Although Zhang Fei on the side was a little puzzled, but in this scene, he also nodded, and said with his hands together: "I am the same!"

Seeing his second and third younger brothers defending the city with him, Liu Bei was moved, and a teardrop flowed from the corner of his eyes.

"Second brother, third brother!"

"Big brother!"

The three of them had already decided their plan this time in Tan County, no matter how Cao Jun called for formation, they just wouldn't go out.

At this moment outside the city, in Cao Cao's camp.

"My lord, this Liu Bei seems to be a timid person. We are so aggressive that we refuse to fight."

Dian Wei frowned slightly, and said in displeasure.

However, Cao Cao looked at Tan County without the slightest impatience.

Seeing that Cao Cao ignored him, Dian Wei turned to look at Zhao Feng and shouted: "Military Master, tell me."

"Why don't you give me [-] elite soldiers, and I'll destroy Tan County overnight!"

Zhao Feng said lightly: "Dian Wei can't, our army is tired from the journey, since they don't fight, then we just have a rest overnight."

Dian Wei showed a hint of despondency: "Okay, just follow the advice of the military advisor."

For Zhao Feng's words, Dian Wei still obeyed, after all, the lesson of taking distilled wine is still there.

Seeing that many generals had arrived, Cao Cao looked at the crowd calmly.

"Since Liu Bei is unwilling to go out of the city to fight, what do you think, how should we break the city?"

Before he could finish his sentence, the unrepentant Dian Wei went out and shouted loudly: "The general is willing to lead the army. Tomorrow, the city wall of Tan County will be demolished to build a pigsty!"

"Blast Liu Bei, the turtle with a shrunken head!"

Cao Cao shook his head and said, "Dian Wei, don't act recklessly."

And Cao Ren, who was at the side, stepped forward and said, "My lord, there will be a plan in the end. Since our food and grass are idioms, it is better to besiege the city for a week and cut off Liu Bei's food and grass."

"In less than a month, there will be no food in Tan County. At that time, our army will win without fighting without a single soldier!"

After hearing Cao Ren's thoughts, Cao Cao nodded. He also thought the same way. Since there is no shortage of food and grass, why not just besiege the city?
However, Cao Cao did not directly accept it, and looked at Guo Jia and Zhao Feng, after all, these two people are counselors.

"Military division, what do you think?"

Zhao Feng looked at Guo Jia who was on the side and said, "Feng Xiao, you should have guessed what Liu Bei was thinking."

Now Zhao Feng and Cao Cao are still not used to it, and they rely on Guo Jia to convey the thoughts in their hearts.

Moreover, Guo Jia, a great talent, can easily speak up against an opponent like Liu Bei without any hints.

Guo Jia smiled and said, "I think General Dian Wei's proposal is good."

As soon as these words came out, everyone except Zhao Feng was shocked. Is this a joke?
Cao Cao asked doubtfully, "What do you mean by Feng Xiao?"

There was a hint of determination in Guo Jia's eyes and he said: "Tomorrow, the best strategy is to capture Tan County!"

At this time, the gazes of the others softened a little, but they didn't understand Guo Jia's meaning.

Cao Cao continued to ask, "Why?"

Guo Jia said confidently: "Liu Bei is betting!"

At this time, Cao Cao's gaze shifted.

"Bet? What to bet?"

Cao Ren and Dian Wei on the side also showed doubts, and they didn't fully understand what Guo Jia was thinking at this time.

"He bet that we won't make a forced siege!"

After Guo Jia said this, Cao Cao also understood a little bit, realized it instantly, and then laughed.

"Haha, I understand, this Liu Bei is waiting for Yuan Shao to come to support them!"

"If Yuan Shao comes to support, Lv Bu will definitely make a move. At that time, the three of them will form an alliance and attack us together!"

Zhao Feng on the side also nodded, and I have to say that Guo Jia's analysis is very good this time.

Cao Cao smiled and said with a gleam of brilliance in his eyes: "Okay, I will order Dian Wei to be the vanguard, and tomorrow I will lead [-] troops to forcibly attack the city!"

"Since Liu Bei wants to gamble, I will help him get rid of his gambling addiction!"

Guo Jia echoed from the side: "This strategy is the best strategy!"

In just a moment, everyone saw through Liu Bei's thoughts.

The next day.

The [-]-strong army came outside Tan County again, but this time, they didn't call out, and the battle drums and horns blew one after another.

"Everyone, go for me!"

"Cut down that Liu Bei with me!"

I saw Dian Wei holding two halberds and charging directly on foot!
He was the only one rushing to the front, this was going to forcefully break through the city!
