Three Kingdoms: Do you want me to get out of here? Liu Bei, you wait

Chapter 16: Xu Chu, who refused to accept the defeat, became close friends after a barbecue?

"Is there any need to ask? Of course it's true."

"Who wants to hear lies?"

"You don't want to tell me that even though Xiahou Dun made such a big mistake this time, the Prime Minister still intends to make him a general?"

After hearing this, Xu Chu replied without thinking.

Su Chen shook his head and said,
"General Xiahou's crime this time is indeed too great. No matter how partial the Prime Minister is, he cannot help but punish him. After all, marching and fighting are no joke. If General Xiahou had not been lucky today, more than half of the 100,000 troops would have been lost. He must be held responsible for this loss.

But unfortunately, even if General Xiahou was given the cold shoulder this time, General Xu still won’t be involved in the next expedition.”

"Why is this?!"

"Then in your opinion, who will the Prime Minister send to replace Xiahou Dun and continue to attack Liu Bei and capture Xinye?
Xiahou Dun has already been in such a state, does the Prime Minister still dare to let someone else lead the troops to war?"

Xu Chu naturally wasn't convinced after hearing this, and he sat down on the ground, feeling extremely indignant.

Hearing his complaints, Su Chen couldn't help but laugh, and repeated his words.

"Yes, didn't General Xu also say that Xiahou Dun has already acted like this? Do you think the Prime Minister can trust others? Next, he will naturally lead the troops to the battle himself."

"Ah, the Prime Minister is going to lead the troops to war personally?"

Xu Chu was stunned.

But after calming down and thinking about it again, he felt that this possibility was very high. "With the Prime Minister's strategy, let alone Xinye, taking the entire Jingzhou would be as easy as taking something out of a bag."

"This battle seems to be a sure win. That big-eared thief is doomed."

At this moment, I felt regretful and spoke with the feeling of missing out on a great opportunity to build a career, but I also felt determined.

Su Chen couldn't help laughing after hearing this, and added casually,
"It is indeed easy to take Jingzhou, but to take Xinye safely, I'm sorry to say, this is not an easy task."

Xu Chu was not convinced and retorted, "You mean, taking Xinye is harder than taking Jingzhou? How is that possible? Liu Biao of Jingzhou has more soldiers and horses than Liu Bei by more than a hundred times."

Su Chen was not annoyed when he saw this, but smiled and asked,

"General Xu, haven't you heard that favorable weather is not as important as favorable terrain, and favorable terrain is not as important as favorable people?"

"Liu Biao of Jingzhou was not destined to live long. He may be about to die soon. He has two sons. Liu Zong is young, and Liu Qi has some ability but no support from his mother. Once Liu Biao dies, Jingzhou's foundation will be taken away by the Cai family of Jingzhou. They will frame each other, fight against each other, and scheme against each other...

In such a place, what can you do even if you have a large number of troops?

I’m afraid that not even one tenth of the true combat power can be exerted.

But Liu Bei's men are different. Today, they have the help of Wolong, and there are brave generals who are willing to sacrifice their lives. If the Prime Minister wants to conquer the world, Liu Bei will be his greatest enemy in his life!"

This time, I speak out and criticize the current situation.

Xu Chu was immediately speechless.

"What you said does make sense. In your opinion, is Liu Bei going to fight to the death in this expedition to Xinye?"

Xu Chu asked.

When he spoke, his big eyes blinked, and it could be said that he was full of curiosity.

Su Chen wanted to reply.

Suddenly I smelled the aroma of charcoal fire in the yard and my appetite increased.

He stood up and laughed.

"No hurry, no hurry, let's eat the barbecue first. Barbecue requires the right heat, so we can't delay."

After saying that, he couldn't wait to walk towards the barbecue oven.

Look at him like this.

Xu Chu naturally became anxious.

I thought Su Chen was deliberately keeping me in suspense again.

I hurried forward and grabbed his hand immediately.
He was impatient and urged her on.

"Oh, what's the point of eating roast lamb? The military situation is really intense."

"Who still eats roasted lamb now? Really... I'm tired of it. Brother Su, please finish what you just said! Forget roasted lamb. Even if it's venison, I can treat you to ten days and ten nights of it. What do you think?"

Su Chen was full of confidence, "How can the barbecue outside be the same as the one at home?"

"What's different? You..."

Xu Chu was really getting anxious.

He opened his mouth and was about to add something.

pat~
Su Chen opened the oven directly.

Sprinkle the secret spices that had been prepared long ago into it.

Sizzle! ~
The sizzling, fat and lean pieces of meat grilled over charcoal, paired with cumin spices, instantly exude an incomparable and tempting aroma.

Su Chen, whom he hadn't seen for several months, began to salivate unconsciously when he saw this scene.

Not to mention Xu Chu, whom I had never seen before.

The moment the fragrance comes out.

His attention was shifted to the oven.

"Gurgle~" After swallowing saliva subconsciously.

Xu Chu also put the matter of Xinye behind his mind and immediately started asking Su Chen again.

"That's not right, Brother Su. Why does the barbecue you made look... different from the ones I ate before?"

"A taste?"

Su Chen didn't explain, he just picked up a skewer of meat and handed it over.

Xu Chu was even more straightforward. He stuffed it directly into his mouth without caring about how hot it was.

The barbecue has just entered my mouth.

The expressions on their faces became more interesting.

After finishing the barbecue in three or two bites.

I just feel the aftertaste is endless.

Smash it with your mouth.

When I opened my eyes again, I felt both incredible and nostalgic.

He quickly opened his mouth and asked Su Chen again.

"Brother Su, why does this meat taste like this? Is this really mutton!?"

"Quick, give me another piece!"

There were a few pieces left while he savored them.

It has been eaten by Su Chen.

At this moment, Xu Chu stretched out his hand and reached into the oven.

He was immediately stopped by Su Chen and said.

"Why are you in such a hurry? It's not cooked yet."

Mi Zhen also smiled and added, "Didn't someone just say, who still eats mutton these days? Have you forgotten it so quickly?"

When Xu Chu heard this, his face immediately turned red with embarrassment.

"I...I really didn't know that your mutton was so delicious."

While hesitatingly apologizing.

He looked at Su Chen eagerly and made another promise.

"Don't worry, Brother Su, which restaurant did you buy the mutton from? I will definitely pay you back double in the future!"

"This is my secret recipe. It's not available outside, and I won't share it with others."

"what?"

"What should I do if I want to eat it again in the future?"

Uncomfortable!

The thought of having such delicious barbecue in the future makes me happy.

I can only eat this once.

Can't eat it every day.

Xu Chu's face fell instantly.

It feels even more painful than missing the opportunity to lead Cao's army and charge into battle.

Seeing him like this, Su Chen immediately smiled and added.

"That's for outsiders. How can you be considered an outsider, Zhongkang? I still have a few packets of this secret seasoning. Take them with you when you leave later."

"Next time you want to eat, just come find me."

"Good good!"

"It has to be you, Su Chen. It's worth it that I made friends with you!!"

"Don't worry, I won't give you this barbecue for nothing. If you need me in the future, just let me know! If I frown for this, I'm not Xu Chu!!"

After hearing this, Xu Chu almost cried for joy.

He walked up to Su Chen and grabbed his hand, not letting go, showing how excited he was.

Su Chen smiled after hearing this.

In fact, I didn't take it too seriously, but I didn't expect that these words had just been spoken.

The next step comes from the reminder of the [Eye of Loyalty].

It was already ringing in his ears.

……

[Ding, congratulations on successfully improving your favorability with Xu Chu. The current favorability is 90%, and the evaluation is 'Best Friend']
