The Three Kingdoms: Steamed Buns and Pickled Cabbage, I Became the Emperor

Chapter 120 Liu Bei's Inner Thoughts

In the second year of Chuping, at the beginning of April, on the city wall of Xuzhou.

"I never thought that after we parted, Ye Chen would become a different person when we met again!"

"I am far inferior to Ye Chen!"

Standing on the city wall of Xuzhou, Liu Bei looked at Ye Chen's army in the distance with an extremely complicated expression.

"Brother, why do you have to belittle yourself?"

Guan Yu said with comfort.

Zhang Fei was also unconvinced.

"Yes, brother!"

"Second brother is right. Why do you have to boost others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige?"

Zhang Fei, who was standing by, was unhappy when he heard Liu Bei say this.

Who is Ye Chen and what is his background?
How can he be compared with his elder brother?

His eldest brother is a descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, a royal noble, and of royal blood.

Now he is the most respected person in the county.

And Ye Chen was just a rebel of the Yellow Turban Army.

To put it bluntly, Ye Chen is not even worthy of carrying shoes for his elder brother.

When Liu Bei heard the tone of his third brother's voice, he knew what he was thinking.

"Hey, third brother!"

"But you don't understand!"

"There are so many heroes in the world now, who can still really regard Ye Chen as an ordinary Yellow Turban rebel!"

Liu Bei sighed but did not explain further.

Although he was a descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, he had only 3,000 soldiers under his command.

The territory under his jurisdiction is no more than one county.

Otherwise, why would he rush to help Tao Qian?

Isn't it just to seek greater development?
But look at Ye Chen.

He had 50,000 soldiers and horses under his command, and had occupied three of the six counties in Xuzhou.

Now the troops are surrounding Xuzhou City again, and once we take over the whole Xuzhou.

He is a real prince.

Who would dare to underestimate such a person? Who would dare to treat him as an ordinary Yellow Turban Army?

Dong Zhuo said that he was a bandit of the Han Dynasty, but they all cursed him fiercely.

Is there anyone in the world who dares to fight against Dong Zhuo?
Say something from your heart.

Liu Bei would rather he and Ye Chen switch places now.

He would join the Yellow Turban rebels as long as he had Ye Chen's strength.

"Don't be discouraged, brother!"

“I think this is a great opportunity for us.”

Guan Yu looked at Liu Bei and said seriously.

"If we can hold on to Xuzhou this time, I think we will have a county to settle down in the future!"

"Then, Big Brother can realize his life's ambitions!"

Tao Qian now occupies Xuzhou.

But all the soldiers under his command were lost.

If the three brothers surrender to Tao Qian, they will definitely be regarded as his confidants.

As long as Ye Chen’s Yellow Turban Army is defeated.

At that time, he would ask Tao Qian for the position of governor of a county.

I believe Tao Qian will agree.

Hear the words.

There was a gleam in Liu Bei's eyes.

He thought further than his second brother Guan Yu.

Now Tao Qian is ill. If he defeats Ye Chen.

If Tao Qian died.

Maybe the whole Xuzhou belongs to him.

By then.

He could also instantly become a warlord from a county magistrate.

Then you will have the capital to fight for the world.

Liu Bei quickly suppressed the gleam in his eyes. It was impossible for him to tell anyone what he was thinking.

Finally, he just nodded and said.

"Second brother is right!"

"Don't think too much about the position of group guardian, big brother!"

"At this stage, I am just thinking about helping Lord Tao defend Xuzhou City."

"To repay Mr. Tao for his kindness!"

Liu Bei said this hypocritically.

After hearing these words, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei clasped their fists and said sincerely.

"Brother is kind and righteous, unparalleled in the world!"

"Guan Yu (Zhang Fei)! I will do my best to help big brother!"

For a time, a strong sense of brotherhood floated over the walls of Xuzhou.

At the same time, at the Mi family, "Second brother, I heard that Ye Chen's army has been stationed outside the city?"

The younger sister of the Mi family's words were full of concern.

Mi Zhu shook his head and smiled bitterly.

My little sister, who hasn't even gotten married yet, is so concerned about her fiancé.

If she really gets married, it will be unacceptable. The Mi family will have to be emptied out.

The elbows are too turned outward.

this time.

The younger sister of the Mi family always heard her two brothers mention Ye Chen's name from time to time.

She was not a fool, so she naturally knew that her two brothers wanted to match her up with Ye Chen.

Beauty loves heroes.

Compared to marrying Tao Qian's stupid son, is it worth considering marrying Ye Chen?
then.

These days, the younger sister of the Mi family has been intentionally or unintentionally inquiring about various news about Ye Chen.

"That's right!"

"I believe it won't be long before Xuzhou will belong to Ye Chen!"

"Then you will be able to see your future ideal husband with your own eyes!"

Mi Zhu smiled and joked.

"Hate!"

"By the way, second brother, isn't our Mi family going to do anything?"

"Need not!"

Mi Zhu shook his head.

Now anyone who is not a fool can see this.

Who will control Xuzhou in the future?

As bright as Ye Chen's future is, Tao Qian is as crazy now.

Tao Qian has almost become a lost dog.

At this time, if he finds evidence against me, he will take a few people with him before he dies.

It is definitely not a wise move.

The Mi family has done enough for Ye Chen.

They don't think highly of this achievement of breaking the city.

The best thing to do these days is to wait.

Once Ye Chen breaks into the city and takes control of Xuzhou, their Mi family will be the biggest winner.

And Mi Zhu believed that even if they did nothing.

In Xuzhou City, there must be countless people who will find ways to welcome Ye Chen, the new master of Xuzhou.

Tao Qian was old and sick.

But he is not dead.

Once Tao Qian catches hold of the Mi family.

He will definitely suffer crazy revenge from Tao Qian.

Given the current situation, Tao Qian would naturally not try to strike a balance.

And now, Tao Qian still has 40,000 troops in Xuzhou City.

If the Mi family were really caught by Tao Qian, the destruction of the Mi family would be imminent.

"Second brother, if there is no help from our Mi family, Ye Chen said that attacking the city will be more difficult?"

The girl said with a hint of worry.

Hearing this, Mi Zhu looked towards the outside of Xuzhou city.

"Now, all we can do is figure out how to attack the city!!"

Anyway, the current Mi family is not suitable for taking risks easily.

As for the rest, it all depends on Ye Chen's hard power.

He also believed that Ye Chen had this ability.

Otherwise, he would not have chosen to bet on Ye Chen so early.

Outside Xuzhou city, in Ye Chen’s military camp.

"My lord, the army has already set up camp!"

Taishi Ci walked in and bowed.

The 50,000-strong army has arrived and has now been properly settled. Barricades and spies have been set up on the periphery to keep an eye out for any movements in all directions at all times.

"Well, let's discuss how to attack the city next."

After Taishi Ci sat down, Ye Chen looked at the people sitting down.

Tao Qian is now in charge of the city of Xuzhou.

Unlike Huaiyin City, something like Zhao Yu voluntarily surrendering the city would definitely not happen.

The city of Xuzhou is high and the moat is deep, so it is not easy to capture it successfully.

"My lord, you can send a general to challenge us tomorrow to dampen the morale of the people in the city!"

Zhao Yun suggested.

When two armies clash, sending a general to fight and killing the general in front of the battle can shake the morale of the other side.

This will make sieges much easier.

"it is good!"

Ye Chen nodded and agreed to Zhao Yun's proposal.
