Chapter 183 Changed History?Xuzhou situation!

Xuzhou.

Pengcheng.

I don't know if it's because history has changed.

In the land of Xuzhou in May of the fourth year of Jian'an, it has been raining for nearly half a month, and there is no sign of stopping.

City Lord's Mansion.

Hearing the sound of rain falling to the ground from outside, Liu Bei's expression revealed a touch of worry.

Look back.

The status of this big Han imperial uncle is not too much compared with him. Dong Cheng, the uncle of the dynasty who fled to Xuzhou with him from Xudu.

"Zi Xu, I don't know why, Bei always feels a little uneasy."

"When I woke up this morning, Bei's eyelids kept twitching, you said..."

Suspicion flashed in Liu Bei's eyes, and he said with some uncertainty: "Cao Cao, who led the army to conquer us, is he doing some tricks while we are not paying attention?"

As Cao Cao's old opponent, Liu Bei never dared to underestimate Cao Cao.

But between words.

When Liu Bei spoke, the big Han Emperor respected Dong Cheng very much, and he didn't use the tone of treating his subordinates at all.

And the fact is that it is.

Liu Bei and Dong Cheng, one is the emperor's uncle, and the other is the current dynasty's uncle, it is difficult to distinguish who is superior.

In addition, it is a special period at this time.

Both have a common enemy, Cao Cao, to deal with, and neither of them has any intention of arguing for priority, and they both tacitly chose to rule Xuzhou together.

That's why, when Liu Bei spoke to Dong Cheng, he had a look of discussion on his face.

"Haha, Xuande is worrying too much!"

"It has been raining continuously in Xuzhou for months. Even though Cao Cao came with an army of [-], it is difficult for him to do anything about Xuzhou that we occupy."

"and!"

"You and I have not only the Zhongji I brought out from Xudu, Wu Zilan, Wang Fu, Wu Shuo and other civil and military generals, but also the two invincible generals under your command, Guan and Zhang!"

"If Cao Cao dares to launch an attack on the Xuzhou we occupy under the rainy weather, he will definitely make him come and go."

Dong Cheng may have escaped from the shackles of Xu Du, and he no longer conceals his inner ambitions and ambitions at this time.

"As long as our army of King Qin can defeat Cao Cao's [-] troops who are chasing us in Xuzhou..."

"When the time comes, the princes who have received the imperial edict issued by King Qin from all over the world will definitely follow suit."

"At that time..."

"The revival of the Han Dynasty is just around the corner!"

Hearing that Dong Cheng's face was familiar, Liu Beilian claimed that it was.

Knowing that Dong Cheng might not be able to listen to what he said now, he didn't force it.

Instead, he laughed at himself and said: "Really? Maybe it's too much to worry about!"

"Since that's the case, Bei won't bother Zixu here. Taking advantage of today's free time, Bei will go to patrol the city defenses."

Regarding Liu Bei's resignation, Dong Cheng waved his hand and did not stop him.

After Liu Bei left, a figure dressed as a scribe walked out from behind the screen in the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion.

"General! Liu Bei needs to be careful!"

"Shuo heard that the second generals Guan and Zhang under Liu Bei's command were indignant about your entry into the city lord's mansion, and they often feel aggrieved because their elder brother failed to become the lord of the coalition forces this time."

The person who made the sound was called Wu Shuo, who was a participant in the Yidai Zhao, and also a confidant and adviser deeply trusted by Dong Cheng.

Hearing Wu Shuo's reminder, Dong Cheng shook his head lightly.

"Yuanfeng, of course I know what you said!"

"But you forgot one thing..."

"Liu Bei is a gentleman with a heart for the Han Dynasty and His Majesty the Son of Heaven. As long as we are determined to command Xu Du to rescue His Majesty, no matter how dissatisfied Liu Bei's people are, Liu Bei will not say any complaints."

"Furthermore, Liu Bei's uncle's name is recognized by His Majesty!"

"For this kindness alone, it is impossible for Liu Bei to turn his back on His Majesty and our army that is fighting for His Majesty."

As he said that, Dong Cheng glanced at Wu Shuo, woke him up and said, "I don't want to hear such words in the future!"

"If it spreads the word, there will be unnecessary waves in the ears of soldiers under Liu Bei's command."

Dong Chengneng has been dormant for a long time under the rule of Xudu Cao Cao, so naturally he will not cause a gap between himself and Liu Bei because of a trivial matter.

During these days of getting along, it was not difficult for Dong Cheng to find out that Liu Bei was a man of great ability.

Whether it's managing soldiers or governing politics, let Dong Chenggao take a look.

It is precisely because of this that at this critical juncture, he cannot do without Liu Bei's assistance and help.

One more thing is...

Dong Chengshi was thinking about his success in the future and after rescuing His Majesty.

There is a lesson from the past for the powerful dictatorship of foreign relatives such as the Dou family and the He family, which caused disasters and chaos.

How could it be possible for Dong Cheng to hold the power in the army alone at this time, excluding Liu Bei, a clan member of the Han Dynasty.

If he really did that, the people all over the world would only think that Dong Chenghui is the next He Jin and his ilk.

"That's what the general taught!"

"Yes, Shuo is a bit unfounded."

Wu Shuo quickly admitted his mistake.

Knowing that his proposal hit the iron plate, he accused Dong Cheng repeatedly.

Dong Cheng knew that Wu Shuo's reminder was for his own sake, so he didn't hold him accountable.

Looking at the pouring rain outside the door, Dong Cheng couldn't help but recall the person he met in Xudu before.

"Yuanfeng, what's the news I asked you to inquire about!"

"Have you ever received anything really useful?"

Hearing Dong Cheng's question, Wu Shuo smiled and said: "General, this is exactly what this subordinate will report to you next!"

"I have already detected..."

"In the past, Li Ru, who was an official under Dong thief's account with you, has already joined Chuck who occupied Chang'an, and now he is making suggestions under his account!"

"But..."

"That Chuck's current situation doesn't seem to be very good. When he sent troops to Youzhou to support Gongsun Zan, Ma Teng and Han Sui had sent 15 troops to Chang'an."

The transmission of news at the end of the Han Dynasty had a serious lag.

For Dong Cheng, the latest news he got actually happened half a month ago, or even longer.

Hearing what Wu Shuo said, Dong Cheng did not show any surprise.

Li Ru joined Chuck, which he already knew from Li Ru's mouth.

What really surprised Dong Cheng was that.

Ma Teng and Han Sui raised troops, but instead of attacking Xudu, they attacked Chang'an.

In this case……

Doesn't it mean that even if Ma Teng and Han Sui received the "King Qin's edict" they issued not long ago, they might not be able to send troops to Xudu.

Thinking of this, Dong Cheng's whole heart sank.

……

Outside the City Lord's Mansion.

Liu Bei who left looked back.

Someone was hiding behind the screen in the lobby where he was talking with Dong Cheng just now, how could Liu Bei, who has experienced many battles, not notice it.

"Ugh!"

"A troubled autumn!"

With a long sigh, Liu Bei, who left the City Lord's Mansion, braved the rain and boarded the top of Pengcheng City.

Not yet close.

Zhang Fei, who was in charge of the city defense today, had come to Liu Bei cursingly, with a dissatisfied look on his face.

"Brother, those bird generals under Dong Cheng are really incompetent."

"Everyone with their noses turned upside down, squinting their eyes to look at people!"

"It makes me really angry, I really want to stab them to death with the snake spear in my hand!"
