Rebirth: I’m Lv Bu

Chapter 61: Cao Cao's trick

Seeing that Zhang Fei had gone, Liu Bei quickly apologized to Ai Lang, and then explained: "Fengxian, my three brothers are very small. The battle with Fengxian at Hulaoguan was at a disadvantage, so my heart is always I have a grudge against Fengxian and treat him like an enemy. Alas, although I was aware of it before, I didn't expect him to dare to do such a thing in this way. I really have no way to discipline me as a brother!"

Ai Lang suddenly realized that he didn't mind that much, and said with a smile: "It turns out that this is the case, then it's not a big deal."

Liu Bei apologized again and again, which made Ailang a little embarrassed.

Then the atmosphere of the banquet became harmonious again, and Liu Bei and Ai Lang chatted about the current situation while drinking.

Unconsciously, both the host and the guest were a little drunk, and Ai Lang left, and Liu Bei led Guan Yu to personally send him out of the door.

When Ai Lang left on horseback, Liu Bei led Guan Yu back into the gate.

Guan Yu couldn't bear it for a long time, and then asked: "What happened just now? Didn't the eldest brother take this opportunity to get rid of Lu Bu and retake Xiaopei, but why did he suddenly regret it when it came to the end?"

Liu Bei sighed, and said helplessly: "It's not that I'm going around and going, it's actually something happened suddenly. Just now Mi Fang ran to tell me that Yuan Shao defeated Gongsun Zan and had taken Zhuojun, Daijun, and Shanggu. In the county, Yuyang, and Guangyang, Gongsun Zan suffered heavy losses, and led the remnants to retreat to Yi Jing. The defeat was only a matter of time." Guan Yu was shocked and said: "Gongsun Zan had nearly 200,000 soldiers, and he was defeated so soon. This is incredible!"

Liu Bei frowned and said, "Gongsun Zan is indifferent and unrighteous, and his subordinates are renegotiated. Such a result is also inevitable. Alas, Brother Bo Gui is so unwise!" After a pause, "Yuan Shao was originally the most powerful prince in the north. Now I have defeated Gongsun Zan again, and my strength is even stronger! I originally thought that Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan would fight to lose both. I said that even if Yuan Shao could defeat Gongsun Zan, it would take several years. In this case, I don’t have to worry too much about Yuan Shao. If we can take advantage of the opportunity to get rid of Lu Bu and make good friends with Cao Cao, we can free ourselves to go south to Huainan. But the development of things is completely different from what I expected. With Yuan Shao's current momentum and strength, it would be unwise to offend him. That's it!" Guan Yu nodded his head with approval, and fortunately said: "Fortunately, this news comes in a timely manner, otherwise we can only bite the bullet and fight Yuan Shao!"

Liu Bei smiled and said, "Let's go see the third brother, he must be still annoyed now!" Guan Yu smiled.

It is said that Cao Cao has been waiting in Xuchang for news that Liu Bei and Lu Bu are fighting, but time has passed for a long time, but Xuzhou is still very calm. Cao Cao knew that his plan had failed, so he called his colleagues to discuss countermeasures.

Xun Yu said: "Lord, for now, Lu Bu and Liu Bei are in a situation of restraining each other, so you don't need to be too concerned. It is worth noting that Yuan Shu in Huainan. Yuan Shu has recently wiped out all the forces opposed to him in Huainan and the remnants of the Yellow Turban. Completely controlled Huainan, sitting on the rich land of Huainan, with more than 300,000 soldiers and horses. If this force moves westward, it will be a huge obstacle to our plan to capture Runan."

Cao Cao nodded and said, "Wen Ruo is absolutely right!" Then he smiled and said, "This Yuan Shu, although I don't put him in my eyes, but I have to put his 300,000 soldiers in my eyes. Three hundred thousand soldiers and horses, even if three hundred thousand pigs were placed in front of them, it would be very scary!" When everyone heard what Cao Cao said was interesting, they couldn't help laughing. Cao Cao touched his chin and said, "Yuan Shu, although he has no talents, he has no small ambitions. I heard that he recently got the Jade Seal of the Kingdom given to him by Sun Jian, which is even more ambitious! Hehe, maybe he really wants it. Come in from the west and touch me! It's okay, I defeated him to capture Runan, and then I will march east to capture Huainan."

Cao Ren immediately went out and hugged his fist and said: "Master, I am willing to be the pioneer!"

Cao Cao smiled and said, "Don't worry, you can fight this battle!"

Xun Yu said: "Lord, we are not suitable for fighting Yuan Shu for the time being. Although Yuan Shu is not a concern, after all, he is strong. Just as Feng Xiao said earlier, our army should first merge the weak and attack the strong enemy. The confrontation between powerful opponents is not only risky, but also misses the opportunity to merge the weak and strengthen the strength."

Cao Cao nodded and smiled: "I naturally remember the strategy set by Feng Xiao." After a pause, he asked: "Wen Ruo meant to provoke Yuan Shu to fight Liu Bei so that we can take Runan safely?"

Xun Yu clasped his fist in admiration and said, "The lord is wise!"

Cao Cao was a little worried and said, "Liu Bei has only one hundred thousand horses, I'm afraid he can't stop him!"

Xun Yu said: "The three brothers Liu Bei are not general. Although Yuan Shu has many soldiers and horses, I expect Yuan Shu to be very difficult. Even if it succeeds, it will not be possible within a year and a half. With this period of time, our army It should have already captured the Runan area. At that time, Liu Bei and Yuan Shu must have suffered heavy losses and exhausted. Our army took the opportunity to take Xuzhou first and then Runan!"

Cao Cao laughed and praised: "Wenruo is really my ovary!" After a pause, he said with a smile: "It's not difficult to provoke his two families to send troops. I sent someone secretly to Huainan to tell him Yuan Shu, Liu Bei Not long ago, he wrote to the court, saying that Yuan Shu had a heart of rebellion and wanted the court to send troops to attack Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu had long coveted Xuzhou and slapped Liu Bei to get Xuzhou with resentment. I expected him to be thunderous when he heard about this incident. Immediately send troops to attack Xuzhou. When the two of them fight, I can go and fetch Runan with peace of mind!"

It is said that after Yuan Shu completely controlled Huainan, he set the capital in Shouchun, preparing for further expansion. However, he was a bit embarrassed, not knowing whether he should go north to take Xuzhou or go west to take Runan. The two factions of counsellors are also in a dispute. General Yang, a counselor under Yuan Shu, strongly advocated westward to capture Runan and then destroy Cao Cao. In his opinion, Cao Cao is dangerous and must not give him a chance to develop. He should first attack Cao Cao when his current strength is strong. 'S strength is definitely on par with Yuan Shao. However, Yuan Shu didn't think that Cao Cao was so dangerous that he was much stronger than him. At the same time, he coveted Xuzhou's richness, so he preferred to go north to capture Xuzhou.

At this moment, Cao Cao's emissary came and said to Yuan Shu: "Liu Bei wrote to the court, saying that Lord Yuan Shu had a heart of plots and plots and asked the court to send troops to crusade. But Lord Prime Minister did not believe Liu Bei's words, please don't worry about Lord Yuan Shu."
