The Three Kingdoms are invincible

Chapter 26 Yanzhou Crisis

"Xuande, after so many years, how are you doing now?" Cao Cao greeted him warmly as soon as they met.This is not just a feigned enthusiasm, he also really appreciates Liu Bei.If the other party is not here to be a lobbyist, Cao Cao really doesn't mind having a good drink with the other party.

"Whether Bei will be safe or not depends on Meng Degong." Liu Bei lowered his posture and said respectfully.

"It's up to me? Why did Xuande say that?" Although he understood what Liu Bei meant, it was up to him, that is, if he retreated, he would be fine, and if he didn't retreat, he would be uneasy.But besides his own great talent, Cao Cao also has the first-class ability to pretend to be stupid, "Could it be that Xuande deliberately joined me and shared weal and woe with me, so that's why he said that?"

Cao Cao is Cao Cao, not only completely ignored the meaning of Liu Bei's words, but also solicited generously.

When Liu Bei saw Cao Cao gossiping about him, he sighed helplessly, and stopped beating around the bush, and directly stated his intentions: "Bei came here this time to express his intention to seek peace on behalf of Tao Gongzu. .”

"The overall situation?" Cao Cao stopped pretending to be stupid with Liu Bei when he made the point clear, and snorted coldly, "Why did I not focus on the overall situation when I attacked Xuzhou?"

"In the past, Bei had the honor to discuss Dong with Duke Meng..." Liu Bei sighed softly again, and said slowly, "At that time, Duke Meng was full of vigor and high spirits, and he was determined to destroy the Dong thief. It was so heartbreaking when he failed to catch up with Dong in the end. Therefore, Bei has always admired Meng Degong deeply. But why did Meng Degong do the evil of Dong thief in just two years?"

"I did the evil of Dong thief that day?" Although he had long expected that he would attract notoriety when he sent troops to Xuzhou, but Liu Bei's hat was too big, which made Cao Cao resentful all of a sudden, "How can I do it? Dong thief is evil? Am I messing with the palace, killing the court officials, or setting fire to the city?"

The current Cao Cao has been in the position of Yanzhou Mu for nearly two years. Although his ambition has been expanded to a certain extent, he still belongs to the Han Dynasty.Cao Cao absolutely cannot accept Liu Bei's responsibility.

"Since the beginning of the Yellow Turban, there have been constant riots in Xuzhou. And Tao Shijun entered Xuzhou. He was close to the virtuous and far away from the sycophant, and he was diligent in government, so that Xuzhou's government was smooth and the people were harmonious, and the people were rich and the country was rich. After entering Xuzhou, he even killed innocent people along the way. I heard that wherever Cao Jun passed, people were devastated. Meng Degong was only a petty enemy of his own, and he abandoned Tao Gongzu's great virtue, and put the people of Xuzhou in the fire and water. Isn't it true Is it the same as Dong Zhuo?" Liu Bei's attitude was mild at the beginning, but every time he said a word, his tone became more serious, and in the end it could be said to be sharp.

"Liu Xuande, long time no see, your words are so sharp!" Cao Cao seemed to be very angry, his attitude was not as kind as when they first met, and even showed a murderous intent.

"What Bei said was what he thought in his heart. What's so sharp about it?" Liu Bei looked straight at Cao Cao's murderous eyes without any fear, and raised his head and said, "If Meng Degong wants to be a Han subject wholeheartedly, he should return to the army immediately. Withdrawing to the territory of Yanzhou, this is the principle of loyalty to the Han. If not, Meng Degong, like Dong Zhuo, is a rebellious minister, a traitor who wants to bring chaos to the Han Dynasty!"

Cao Cao had already prepared himself psychologically for his notoriety when he sent troops this time.But he would never have thought that he would be scolded in such a way in front of his face, and scolded so blatantly, without any cover.

As soon as Liu Bei finished cursing, he couldn't help feeling anxious in his heart. If Cao Cao really became angry, even if Guan Yu protected him, his trip might not end well.After all, no matter how brave Guan Yu is, it is only the bravery of one person. There are thousands of troops behind Cao Cao.The guard beside Cao Cao was Dian Wei, and Liu Bei knew very well that the opponent was a villain with superb martial arts skills. Even if he wanted Guan Yu to capture the thief first, the king would be very difficult.

If time wasted for a few more years, Liu Bei would not dare to say this in front of Cao Cao anyway.Just like the hero who cooked wine later, Liu Bei was really a scheming hero at that time. In order to protect himself, he could even pretend to be his grandson in front of the enemy without hesitation.And now Liu Bei still has such a sense of righteousness in his heart, even if he has a little uneasiness in his heart, he still dares to speak out in front of Cao Cao about his grievances.

"It seems that Xuande and I have different ways after all and are not conspiring with each other!" Cao Cao didn't want to refute Liu Bei's accusation, let alone what the other party said was reasonable, and there was no way to refute it.However, Cao Cao had originally made up his mind to rely on his strength to speak, so whether he was a famous teacher or an unknown teacher, it would not change his ambition to annex Xuzhou.

"It's getting late, Xuande should go back early, take a good rest, and prepare for the battle tomorrow!" If Liu Bei spoke to himself like this in a few years, Cao Cao would definitely kill him.However, although Cao Cao's heart was filled with murderous intentions several times, he still did not order Liu Bei to kill Liu Bei in the end.

Liu Bei still wanted to fight for a few more words, but Cao Cao had already left him and turned away. In desperation, Liu Bei could only sigh softly, and took Guan Yu away angrily.

————————————————————————————————————————— Xiahou Dun frowned tightly as he watched the soldiers gradually approaching the city wall of Puyang Chuan glyph.

Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou and took away most of the elite, so that he had too few soldiers available, only 3000.How could these 3000 people hold Puyang City in such a dangerous situation.It never occurred to me that as soon as Cao Cao left, Lu Bu, under the support of Zhang Miao and others, attacked Yanzhou.Lv Bu's soldiers were excellent and brave, and Chen Gong was his counselor to assist them. The counties and counties stationed in Yanzhou were conquered one after another. Even the city of Chenliu, where Cao Cao first raised his troops, was also occupied by Lv Bu. Mao Jie and Xun You, who were in charge of guarding Chenliu, led several Hundreds of defeated soldiers fled to Dongjun.

This is really too ironic. Cao Jun successively captured the cities of Xuzhou in the front, while the cities of Yanzhou behind him were successively captured by Lu Bu.

Xiahou Dun is well aware of the current situation.Compared with Cao Cao, Lv Bu had no one to say anything about the rear at this time, and he was completely out, without any worries.Although the battle situation in Xuzhou is going well, Tao Qian is still stubbornly resisting. After all, there are still tens of thousands of people in Xiapi City who can throw stones and logs at the enemy below the city wall in order to capture Xiapi City and even occupy it. It will take some time for the whole territory of Xuzhou.However, the guardian forces in several cities in Yanzhou are pitifully scarce.It can be said that if Lu Bu wants to occupy Yanzhou, he will definitely be able to occupy Xuzhou much faster than Cao Jun's occupation of Xuzhou.

Yanzhou is in danger.Once the entire territory of Yanzhou fell, Cao Cao would have to face only an irreversible defeat.

Yanzhou, never lose!But even so, how should Yanzhou defend?How can I keep it?

Xiahou Dun only felt distraught.

"General..." Cheng Yu saw that Xiahou Dun's face was cloudy, and whispered beside him, "I think Puyang is no longer defendable, so it's better to abandon it."

"What did you say!" Xiahou Dun shouted loudly, beard and hair all stretched out upon hearing the words.

"Lü Bu is powerful but Puyang's army is few, and it's easy for Lv Bu to defeat Puyang." Cheng Yu was not frightened by Xiahou Dun's anger, and said frankly, "Instead of waiting for the city to be destroyed and in vain injuring the army, it is better to take this opportunity at night." Three thousand troops rushed to Dongjun to join Gaoshun. Dongjun is the seat of Yanzhou, and it is the foundation of the lord. As long as Dongjun can be preserved, even if the other cities of Yanzhou are captured by Lu Bu, there is still a chance to regain it in the future. But if the Eastern Commandery falls, the situation will be completely gone!"

Xiahou Dun was not a foolish person. After listening to Cheng Yu's analysis and thinking carefully, he realized that what he said was true. He immediately bowed to Cheng Yu and said, "What Mr. said is right, it was Dun who was rude."
