Three Kingdoms: Cao Cao is stunned when he reveals his time-traveling identity.

Five days after Cao Cao took control of Xuzhou.

Lü Bu led his army in a massive attack.

Looking at the city of Xuzhou, which is covered with flags bearing the character "Cao".

Lu Bu was so angry he almost vomited blood.

He stood beneath the city gate and angrily cursed Cao Cao's ancestors for eighteen generations.

If Cao Cao dared to appear in front of him now.

Lu Bu would have to cleave him in two with one halberd!

However, Cao Cao would never give him that opportunity.

No matter how much Lü Bu talked, he couldn't stop.

Cao Cao did not respond at all.

You can curse all you want, I'll take it as a loss if I pay attention to you.

Lu Bu was furious, but there was nothing he could do.

Now that Chen Gong is dead, Gao Shun's fate is unknown.

Zhang Liao, the only general, was still stationed in the rear to prevent Yuan Shu from attacking.

He didn't even have anyone to talk to.

He was completely dejected and in a terrible state.

What hurt him the most was...

He certainly couldn't take Diao Chan with him when he went to war!

At this moment, Diao Chan was still in the city!

He had no idea what Diao Chan's current situation was!

I'm so upset, so very upset.

However, at that moment...

In order to reunite with Cao Cao, Liu Bei led his army back and prepared to first establish a foothold in Xiapi and wait for an opportunity to launch another attack.

As luck would have it, they ran into Lü Bu.

Lü Bu believed that Liu Bei's aim was also to retake Xuzhou.

Without saying a word, he decided to shamelessly go to Liu Bei for a proper discussion.

Little did he know that when Liu Bei learned of his presence, he immediately dispatched a thousand elite cavalry.

They completely wrecked Lü Bu's supply depot.

Now, Lü Bu was completely deflated, like a wilted eggplant.

Left with no other choice, he retreated to a small city.

Let us rest and recuperate for now.

Looking at my current situation.

There was no one around.

What was once a good life in Xuzhou has now come to nothing.

The beauty is gone.

The army is gone.

The food supplies are gone.

The strategist is gone.

The military generals are gone too.

He had almost nothing left.

Lu Bu gripped his halberd and stood atop the city wall, which was much shorter than that of Xuzhou.

Looking around, you can't even see the outline of Xuzhou.

The feeling of desolation made him almost want to vomit blood.

……

Meanwhile, inside Xuzhou city.

"Brother Fengxiao, you should handle this matter."

"Sikong specifically named you to go; what's the meaning of you sending me?"

"No, would it be appropriate for Qinghe to find out about this? I'm a very loyal man."

"No, I just wanted you to go and see. What does that have to do with being faithful or not?"

Early in the morning, just after leaving the governor's mansion in Xuzhou.

Su Chen and Guo Jia then engaged in a tug-of-war.

"No, we've been in the city for so many days now."

"The Grand Commandant hasn't touched Lü Bu's family members yet?"

"That's really strange."

Su Chen sighed.

I've been in the city for five days.

Everything was arranged in an orderly manner, and Xuzhou City was completely under Cao Cao's control.

The results of it?

They didn't even send a single person to check on Lü Bu's residence!

This isn't right.

This doesn't seem like Boss Cao's personality, does it?

Lu Bu's residence was home to the beautiful Diao Chan, as well as his first wife, Lady Yan!

Diao Chan needs no introduction; she was a beauty that could topple kingdoms and was one of the Four Beauties of ancient China!

As for Madam Yan, although she couldn't compare to Diao Chan...

But she should also be as beautiful as a flower.

Moreover, she perfectly fits Boss Cao's XP; she's definitely a married woman!

Why didn't Boss Cao make a move?

It was still early morning, and he seemed to have suddenly remembered something.

Using the excuse that Su Chen had nothing better to do, should we just send him off to take a look?

Su Chen was completely stunned.

I'd like to go, but... I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself!

If something really happens, it's not appropriate.

How could I face Qinghe, who had been eagerly awaiting my return in Xudu?!

Guo Jia looked at Su Chen with a helpless expression:

"Jingming, what are you thinking about?"

"Sikong said you should just go and take a look."

"Go and offer your condolences as a staff member under the Minister of Works."

"This will make it easier to seize his family and force Lü Bu to surrender!"

"You... I really don't understand what you're thinking."

"Go ahead, I have other things to do."

Guo Jia was almost in tears.

There are so many things, big and small, happening in Xuzhou.

He was simply too busy.

Su Chen held them there in a stalemate for quite a while.

Who can he turn to for justice?

Su Chen gave Guo Jia a disgruntled look:

"You drunkard, how could you possibly understand!"

"If it were someone else, I can guarantee I could control myself."

"But Diao Chan..."

"It's hard to say."

"These sisters have used divisive tactics before."

"Who really knows what kind of woman she is?"

"What if it's to save my life..."

"stop!"

Guo Jia was at his wit's end and said in a deep voice:

"I'll go with you."

"But we need to go and come back quickly."

Guo Jia was really pushed to the limit by Su Chen, so he could only sigh and say...

"Good brothers, for life!"

Su Chen patted Guo Jia on the shoulder.

The two strode towards Lü Bu's residence.

Actually, Su Chen wasn't worried about losing control when he saw Diao Chan.

That's just a lame excuse.

A poorly made excuse doesn't even sound like an excuse.

Although the order was given by Cao Cao.

But he went to see Diao Chan alone.

There's no guarantee that people won't gossip about us.

The idea that he met alone with Lü Bu's family might be suspicious.

If there's too much of this kind of idle gossip...

It's hard to say whether Boss Cao, with his unpredictable and volatile personality, will overthink things.

Calling Guo Jia is the best choice.

After all, self-preservation must be the top priority.

Soon, the two arrived at Lü Bu's residence.

A lady, accompanied by a girl who looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old.

The girl was dressed in light armor, and her figure was upright and graceful.

He looks like a skilled martial artist.

His only wife was Diaochan.

As for Lady Yan, it is said that after Cao Cao breached the city gates, she committed suicide along with Lü Bu's personal guards.

Diao Chan was truly a beauty that could topple kingdoms and shame the moon and flowers.

It's beyond words.

It can only be said that this completely overturned Su Chen's perception of beauty.

Even though Diao Chan is now nearly thirty years old.

But her skin looked exactly the same as the girl next to her!

Upon seeing Su Chen and Guo Jia, the two instinctively became wary.

With Lü Bu absent, they had no idea what Su Chen had come for.

The girl gripped the halberd tightly in her hand.

"Madam, please don't misunderstand."

"My name is Su Chen, and I am a strategist under the command of the Minister of Works."

"I've heard that the lady hasn't eaten for many days."

"I came here specifically to offer my condolences."

Su Chen spoke slowly.

Upon hearing Su Chen's words, the two frowned, clearly not believing him.

"Madam, you can rest assured."

"I have a way to ensure your comfort and the safety of your second daughter."

Su Chen spoke calmly and said:

"Am I right, Miss Lü Lingqi?"

Upon hearing this, the girl was immediately terrified!

"How...how do you know my name?!"

The girl was shocked and couldn't believe it at all.

Why?

Her existence was known only to those under Lü Bu's command.

How did this young strategist know all this?!
