The Three Kingdoms Fight for the Deer

Chapter 128 Explain the purpose
"Hmph, since a strong attack is not enough, what good way can Lord Xun You break the city?" Cao Hong said dissatisfiedly, thinking that you have no better strategy and the only way to go is a strong attack.

Xun You really didn't have a better plan to break the city at this time, but he knew that a strong attack would only waste his troops in vain, not to mention whether he could break through Puyang, even if he broke through, he would lose more than half of his troops, and the gains would outweigh the losses.

"Zi Lian should not be rude to Gongda." Cao Cao signaled Cao Hong to calm down, forcibly attacking is indeed not a good idea.

After a long silence, no one could come up with a good solution, and the atmosphere was quite awkward. Suddenly, a soldier came to report that Li Yuan sent an envoy to come to see him, saying that he had something important to discuss.

"Li Yuan sent an envoy?" Cao Cao couldn't help but feel a little strange. In fact, not only him, but everyone was surprised, because they didn't have much contact with Li Yuan, so they didn't know what the purpose of sending an envoy was at this time.

"Feng Xiao, what do you think Li Yuan sent an envoy here?" Cao Cao asked Guo Jia.

"I think it's better to meet the envoy before making any plans." Guo Jia also couldn't figure out why Li Yuan sent an envoy at this time, but he thought it had something to do with the attack on Puyang.

So Cao Cao ordered someone to bring the envoy up.

Mi Zhu walked into the tent and saw that it was full of civil servants and generals, who should be discussing the matter of attacking Puyang, so he thought it was a coincidence.

"Mi Zhu and Mi Zizhong met Captain Cao." Although Mi Zhu had never met Cao Cao, there was only one person sitting in the main seat, and there was no one else but Cao Cao.

"Hahahaha, I have heard for a long time that Mi Zhu under Li Yuan's command is a local rich man with incomparable business ability. I saw him today and he is indeed a good-looking talent." Cao Cao praised habitually, "I don't know why Li Yuan sent you here?"

"Naturally, I came here because of Captain Cao's worries." Mi Zhu smiled slightly.

"What worries me?"

"That's right, General Li learned that Colonel Cao has been attacking Puyang for a long time, so he intends to come to help, and wants to help Captain Cao take Puyang in one fell swoop." Mi Zhu explained his intention.

"Mi Zhu, don't blame me for being suspicious, but I still understand the truth that there is no free lunch in the world. Why did Li Yuan help me, and what good would it do him?" Naturally, Cao Cao would not believe that Li Yuan would be so kind to help him. There are reasons he doesn't know.

"Lieutenant Cao should know that during the Battle of Hulao Pass, General Li and Lu Bu formed a hatred. He had wanted to get rid of Lu Bu for a long time, but he never found a good chance. Now Captain Cao attacked Puyang and surrounded Lu Bu in the city. No, that's why General Li wanted to help Colonel Cao Cao."

It can be said that everyone knows that Lu Bu hated Li Yuan, so Cao Cao also believed more than half of Mi Zhu's words.

"Doesn't General Li have other plans?" Guo Jia stared at Mi Zhu closely, his eyes were extremely sharp, as if he wanted to see through Mi Zhu.

"There is one more thing that makes General Li have to send troops." Guo Jia glanced at Mi Zhu and couldn't help trembling. Even he didn't know why, but he had a heart for Guo Jia, and felt that this person was not simple.

"What is it, please tell me." Cao Cao couldn't help asking.

"Well, I'm ashamed to say that General Li's family members were taken away by Lu Bu's men and brought to Puyang because of his negligence for a while, and they wanted to force them to marry him. Lu Bu, eat him alive."

Although Xiao Qiao did not marry Li Yuan, Mi Zhu knew that this would happen sooner or later, otherwise Li Yuan would not go to the rescue desperately, so he simply said that Li Yuan came for his family, which sounded more reasonable. If it is said that sending troops for women may make Cao Cao and others laugh to death, how absurd this sounds.

"So that's the case, then I, Cao Cao, will thank General Li first. If Puyang is captured, I will hand over Lu Bu to him." Cao Cao finally understood why Li Yuan sent troops to help. It turned out that he came for his family, who were forced to marry People, no wonder Li Yuan would be so angry, it is reasonable to send troops to attack.

"General Li has already started to gather troops in Xiaopei a few days ago. I believe that the army will arrive in Puyang in a short time. At that time, he will attack Lv Bu together with Cao Xiaowei and capture Lv Bu alive." Mi Zhu believed that after Li Yuan and Cao Cao's cooperation Lu Bu would definitely not be an opponent under the pincer attack. Even Li Yuan and Lu Bu couldn't resist, let alone Cao Cao.

At this time in Puyang City, although Lu Bu was surrounded by Cao Cao's army, he was not in a hurry at all, but very happy, for no other reason, because his soldiers captured two beauties for him, that is, Erqiao and Qiao.

A maid came out from Er Qiao's room, and Lu Bu saw her stepping forward and asked, "Why, the two ladies don't want to eat, right?"

Seeing Lu Bu salute quickly, the maid replied: "General Lu, the two ladies are indeed unwilling to eat, no matter how much I try to persuade them, it is useless. I have asked the kitchen to change several dishes, but they refuse to eat a single bite. "

Ever since Erqiao and Erqiao were taken away by Lu Bu, they had been depressed and wanted to go back to Xiapi to find Li Yuan, but Lu Bu was unwilling to let them go, so they had to go on a hunger strike in protest.

Lu Bu walked into the room and saw Er Qiao sitting on the bed. They had not been in Puyang for a long time, but their faces became paler and their health deteriorated day by day, all due to the hunger strike. Lu Bu felt very distressed when he saw this.

"Big Joe, Little Qiao, you should eat something first, your bodies won't be able to hold on like this." Lu Bu went to the table and picked up a bowl of porridge, and then wanted to feed it to Er Qiao.

"General Lu, please respect yourself, you can't enter your daughter's room at will." Da Qiao gently pushed away the porridge that Lu Bu handed over.

When Xiao Qiao saw Lu Bu approaching, she couldn't help shrinking back on the bed, and sat behind Big Qiao, as if she was very afraid of Lu Bu.

Lu Bu felt very dissatisfied when he saw Er Qiao act like this. Since he brought them to Puyang, although he liked them very much, he always respected them very much and did not force them to do happy things, because he wanted Er Qiao to be sincere. Accept him, but as the days go by, Er Qiao is still the same as at the beginning, keeping him at a respectful distance, which makes him very unhappy.

"Hmph, I, Lu Bu, am a vassal at any rate. I have countless servants and generals under my command. I control thousands of troops. There are countless women who want to throw themselves into my arms. Why can't you accept me?" The more Lu Bu thought about it, the more angry he was. I have never tried to be so patient with a woman, but Xiao Qiao didn't appreciate it at all.

"General Lu is a general like no one in ten thousand. He has galloped on the battlefield and killed countless enemies. He holds a high position. However, my sister and I are just ordinary people. I know that I am not worthy of General Lu. Please let me go. " Da Qiao said tactfully.
