Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 455 The decisive battle is imminent
"This?" Hearing this, Liu Bei was also shocked. Although he knew that this was Lu Bu's strategy, but just like what Chen Gui said, what Liu Bei relied on to compete with other princes was not his own strength, but himself. Although Liu Bei has some strength now, it is not good to destroy his image like this. Thinking of this, Liu Bei got up and bowed deeply to Chen Gui and said: "Thank you, old man, for speaking bluntly, Liu has been taught a lot."

"Hehe, I'm just saying something from the bottom of my heart, so that you can accept it, it's my blessing." Chen Gui nodded and smiled, daring to take credit for it.

"Hahaha, now that the envoy has settled the matter, I will wait for the envoy to drink a few more glasses." Seeing that Chen Gui and Liu Bei had settled, the sorrow on Liu Bei's face disappeared, and Mi Zhu on the side quickly clapped his hands, People brought water and wine.

"Hehe, Mi Zhu, you are more thoughtful. You can be happy only if you have wine and meat." Zhang Fei jumped up first when he heard that there was wine to drink, and with a smile, he grabbed the wine jar brought up by the servant and looked after himself Filled up.

"Emissary, my younger sister is twenty-eight years old. After hearing about the general's heroic deeds, she admires her very much. Today, the general came to the establishment. Why don't you let my sister perform dances to cheer up the fun. I wonder if the envoy will agree?" Seeing that everyone drank After getting up, Mi Zhu quietly came to Liu Bei's side and whispered beside Liu Bei.

"This?" Liu Bei was a little drunk after drinking for three rounds. He looked at Mi Zhu who was speaking, but he didn't think clearly about what Mi Zhu meant. He hesitated and impulsively said, "This is not very good."

Liu Bei said this, although there was some rejection, but Mi Zhu clearly saw greed on Liu Bei's face. After all, Liu Bei was not young, but he hadn't tasted much fishy smell in his military career for so many years.

Hearing what Mi Zhu said at this time, he naturally felt a little impatient.Liu Bei has seen a lot of ordinary peasant women in his hometown village, but the kind of rough-handed women, of course, can be said to work, but if you talk about the style, they are far behind. This point Liu Bei has seen the world. In the city of Chang'an that day, Liu Bei also took advantage of the chaos to enter the palace, and saw many beauties who were raised in deep boudoirs, but Liu Bei was not in the mood to appreciate them at the time, but it was just that. A rough glance is enough to make Liu Bei never forget, and he often thinks of it late at night.It's a pity that although there are such delicate beauties in the world, he Liu Bei has no chance to enjoy them. When he was in the village, he had no chance, and he will never have a chance in the future. Whenever he thinks that other people will always be accompanied by beauties at night, Liu Bei can only silently respond to this. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are two big men, Liu Bei really wants to cry but has no tears. Facing Mi Zhu's door-to-door business, Liu Bei is naturally looking forward to it, but he is also a little cautious. Liu Bei must be too old to be seen by Mi Zhu. frivolous.

"Haha, please make me move, and settle my sister's little daughter's thoughts." After speaking, Mi Zhu stepped forward to support Liu Bei, and then dragged Liu Bei to the inner hall.

Liu Bei retreated a little at first, but seeing Mi Zhu's kindness, he dragged along with Mi Zhu.In Liu Bei's mind, anyway, he has a shallow foundation in Xuzhou. If this good thing really happens and he recognizes Mi Zhu as his brother-in-law, then he can be considered to have taken root in the land of Xuzhou.

"Uh, look, second brother, elder brother seems to be drunk, I'll help him." Seeing Liu Bei staggeringly being dragged away by Mi Zhu, Zhang Fei stood up and said to Guan Yu beside him.

Guan Yu turned around and glanced at the backs of Liu Bei and Mi Zhu going away, but he tugged at the corner of Zhang Fei's clothes and said, "It's okay, brother is not drunk."

"Why isn't elder brother drunk? You can see that he is walking crookedly, obviously he is drunk. I want to help him to rest." Zhang Fei was willing to listen, straightened up and was about to chase Liu Bei.

"Don't worry about elder brother, you and I just want to drink." Guan Yu pulled Zhang Fei to his side and said, "Don't look at Mi Zhu as fat and fat. If elder brother is really drunk, how can he help him?" Stay." Guan Yu said with a slight twitch in the corner of his mouth.Although Guan Yu didn't know why Liu Bei and Mi Zhu left, but Mi Zhu spent a lot of time to call his three brothers and the original team from Xuzhou here tonight. It must not be such a simple matter. Guan Yu thought it was normal.

"Uh, two generals, Shijun Liu drank too much and has already rested at the house. Please go back first." After a while, Mi Zhu came back alone. After seeing Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he saluted slightly and said.

Although Mi Zhu used to salute Guan Yu and Zhang Fei deeply, but from tonight on, Mi Zhu's status is decidedly different, and he no longer needs to be as afraid of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei as before, so he only salutes slightly.

"What is this? My brother used to drink, but he was not so easily drunk. Take me to him, and the three of us will have a good drink." Hearing Mi Zhu's words, Zhang Fei roared indifferently, and then pushed aside Mi Zhu was about to enter the inner hall, but he thought he didn't know the way, so he turned to Mi Zhu and said, "Don't you lead the way yet?"

"This?" Mi Zhu didn't expect that Zhang Fei would look like he was about to get angry at this time, so he quickly turned his head to look at Guan Yu who was at the side, and asked for help: "The envoy has indeed rested, and I ask General Guan and General Zhang to forgive me."

Hearing what Mi Zhu said, Zhang Fei took a step forward and wanted to teach Mi Zhu a lesson, but Guan Yu stopped him and said, "Since the elder brother has already rested, we won't bother you. It's just that our three brothers lived and died together. You go Find two benches for our two brothers, and the two of us will keep watch for the eldest brother tonight."

"This?" Mi Zhu didn't expect that Guan Yu would stay here without seeing Liu Bei come out. He wanted to say something more, but saw Zhang Fei's face darkened, and he didn't have the courage to continue speaking. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei brought the beds.

"Second brother, do you really trust this Mi Zhu?" Zhang Fei said a little anxiously after Ren did not see Liu Bei coming out.

"Don't worry, there are two of us here, and the people outside the house are all our people, forgive him and Mi Zhu won't dare to play tricks." Guan Yu nodded after thinking for a while.

This night was destined to be not an ordinary night. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were at the entrance of the hall, counting the stars in the sky from time to time, but there was a woman's voice in their ears, which made the two of them feel itchy, but they just couldn't bear it. Being able to look at each other with a wry smile, it turns out that being brothers is not only a risk of life and death together.

When Lu Bu's army arrived under Juancheng, the tower of Juancheng was already full of soldiers, but these soldiers were somewhat different from the Cao army that Lu Bu had seen before. As for the difference, Lu Bu couldn't tell. .

"Cao Cao, you bastard, you still don't want to go out of the city to fight with grandpa." Outside Juancheng, Dian Wei rode his horse back and forth, yelling at the top of the tower, but what made Dian Wei feel strange was that no matter how much he scolded, he didn't see him again. When the enemy made any move, Dian Wei even felt that he saw a trace of mockery on the faces of the soldiers on the tower, which made Dian Wei helpless.

"General, it's troublesome for Cao Jun to stay in the city and not fight." Seeing that Cao Jun had no intention of going to war, Tai Shici said worriedly.

It is certain that the number of Cao's army and the number of Lu Bu's army are now on par. With such a comparison, if it is a field battle, the Lu Bu army will naturally have an advantage, but if it is to attack the city, it will be a little weak.

"Hmph, since Cao Cao refuses to leave the city, let's see how long he can stay in the city." Lu Bu smiled contemptuously, and ordered the army to block all roads outside Juancheng. It is certain that the materials in Juancheng are not enough for [-] soldiers and horses anyway. If Cao Cao does not leave the city, he will have to wait to die.

"My lord, there seems to be something wrong. This doesn't look like Cao Cao." Seeing that Lu Bu's army had completely sealed off Juancheng and Cao's army was still silent, Tai Shici reminded with some hesitation.

"If you were Cao Cao, what would you do at a time like this?" Lu Bu asked Tai Shici with some uneasiness.

"This? If I were Cao Cao, I would lead troops to attack Puyang. Most of our troops must be concentrated in Yanzhou. Attacking Puyang at this time should be a good choice." Tai Shici hesitated for a while and said.

"But nothing happened in Puyang. If Cao Jun marches into Puyang, there won't be any news." Lu Bu also thought that Cao Cao would attack Puyang. news, and these outposts were not attacked in any way.This shows that Cao Jun did not attack in the direction of Puyang, so what will Cao Jun do?It is not Cao Cao's style to stay in the city like this.Suddenly, I saw that Lu Bu had a bad feeling. Lu Bu thought of Sizhou. Sizhou is currently the weakest link in the defense of Lu Bu's army. More importantly, if Sizhou is lost, then Lu Bu's army in Yanzhou will lose Yongzhou. Supplies and reinforcements in Liangerzhou.

"Tai Shici, you immediately lead your troops back to Sizhou through Hulao Pass, and tell Jia Xu to be careful of Cao Cao." Thinking of this, Lu Bu hurriedly said to Tai Shici beside him.

"Yes." Hearing what Lu Bu said, Tai Shici immediately understood the seriousness of the matter, his eyes flashed, and he turned around and left the tent.

"Cao Cao, are you really going to Sizhou?" Lu Bu murmured looking at the map spread out in front of him.Unlike thinking that Cao Cao would attack Sizhou at the beginning, a smile overflowed from the corner of Lu Bu's mouth at this moment.The importance of Sizhou to Lu Bu at this time is getting better without medicine.But it may not necessarily be a good place for Cao Cao, even if Cao Cao occupies Sizhou.so what?To the west of Sizhou is Yongzhou, to the east is Yanzhou, to the south is Wancheng, and to the north is Hanoi, which is now controlled by Zhang Xiu.In other words, as long as Lu Bu has a firm grasp of Wancheng after Cao Cao enters Sizhou, then for Lu Bu, Cao Cao is the turtle in the urn. These days, Lu Bu and Cao Cao are fighting. Never dared to expect to be able to drive Cao Cao to death, but this time Lu Bu saw an opportunity. "Cao Cao, this is an opportunity. Let us wait and see who between you and me can dominate the Central Plains."
