The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

Chapter 103 I Want To Slap Myself!

At the beginning of July, the westerly wind picked up.

As the westerly wind howling between heaven and earth begins to sweep across the whole Dahan, autumn has come.

Xuzhou, within Dongping City.

Cao Cao held the military rations delivered by the logistics operation not long ago, feeling a little dazed for a long time.

"Zhicai, is this really edible?"

Army rations made with migratory locusts!

That kid Fengyi also came up with this thing.

Knowing that the pancakes in his hand were made from migratory locusts, Cao Cao felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

On the side, Xi Zhicai took a sip of water and wine after thinking for a long time.

Immediately afterwards, seeing Xi Zhicai opened his mouth, he took a bite out of the bread.

Although there was some resistance in my heart, who told me that this was my younger brother who was escorted here.

No matter what, it is absolutely impossible for Fengyi to harm him!
Since my younger brother said that this thing can be eaten, it has even been made into noodles.

Xi Zhicai didn't hesitate too much.

With one bite.

The taste on the bread instantly occupied the entire mouth, and the taste that was difficult to swallow did not appear.

Accompanied by the wine, the bread quickly melted in the mouth.

It kind of tastes like chicken.

Xi Zhicai was a little dazed, then opened his mouth and took another bite, it wasn't a hallucination!

It tastes really good!

Really edible!

Seeing that Xi Zhi had eaten the whole pancake in just two or three mouthfuls, Cao Cao's eyes widened and he was in a daze.

"Zhicai, how does it taste?"

The appearance of Xi Zhicai in front of him doesn't seem to be pretending, this pancake really seems to be edible!
"My lord, it tastes good, like chicken!"

"chicken?"

How can migratory locusts be compared with chicken?

It's not that he, Cao Cao, has never eaten chicken. You Xi Zhicai just wanted to promote your younger brother, so you don't need to do that, right?
Cao Cao didn't believe it, but after Xi Zhicai tried it first, Cao Ren on the other side also opened his mouth and took a bite.

Followed by the second mouthful, the third mouthful.

Seeing that there was no abnormal expression on Cao Ren's face, Cao Cao subconsciously looked at him.

"Brother, it is indeed like a chicken!"

“It melts in your mouth and tastes good!”

Cao Ren also said it was like chicken, so Cao Cao couldn't bear it any longer.

Now, the entire barracks is full of military rations made of migratory locusts as Xi Yu said, and Cao Cao has nothing to do.

After opening his mouth and taking a bite, his whole face froze.

The two people in front of him didn't lie to him!
It is indeed not much different from chicken, and it is more chewy!
"hiss!"

"It's strange, it's strange!"

Cao Cao couldn't believe it, was it really made by migratory locusts?

Didn't Fengyi make it with chicken, and then deliberately said it was made of migratory locusts?
It's just that the bread in the entire military camp is made of migratory locusts. If it was really replaced with chicken, it would not be able to withstand such consumption.

Cao Cao believed it in his heart!

"Fengyi is really a great talent, and I am lucky to have Fengyi!"

The corners of Cao Cao's mouth couldn't help but grinned. After taking a bite of the bread, he looked at Xi Zhicai and then began to discuss the situation in Xuzhou.

"Zhicai, what should we do in the current situation?"

I heard that Tao Qian's Cao Bao had defected from Liu Bei and switched to Lu Bu, which was really surprising.

Immediately afterwards, the internal situation in Xuzhou changed.

Cao Cao had already received a letter from Liu Bei yesterday.

In the letter, Liu Bei said that it was not his original intention to take over Xuzhou animal husbandry, but Tao Gong entrusted him before his death, and now he cannot govern Xuzhou.

His words are sincere, but there is a bit of truth.

In short, in one sentence, Liu Bei said that he didn't want to be Xuzhou shepherd, and asked Cao Cao if he had any intention of becoming the master of Xuzhou.

He is willing to hand over Xuzhou!

This was beyond Cao Cao's expectation.

I thought that after Liu Bei succeeded Xuzhou, he would have to stand in a stalemate with him for a while.

Maybe there will be a big battle between the two.

But now, Liu Bei's letter made Cao Cao a little uncertain.

"Zhicai, what do you think Liu Bei's words mean?"

Asked to Xi Zhicai, Cao Cao frowned slightly.

Hearing this, the corners of Xi Zhicai's mouth rose slightly!

"My lord, now in Xuzhou, with the temporary rebellion of Cao Bao, Lu Bu's power has already surpassed Liu Bei!"

"Liu Bei said he was Xuzhou Mu, but he couldn't restrain Lu Bu!"

"However, from what I've seen in Lu Bu's actions, he intends to annex Liu Bei in one breath. It's true that he would say so!"

In the current situation, Liu Bei will take the initiative to take effect. From Xi Zhicai's point of view, it is nothing but normal.

Liu Bei has no other choice.

With his own ability, there is no way to resist Lu Bu at this moment.

If Cao Cao really didn't care about it, Liu Bei would be annexed by Lu Bu sooner or later!

In the current situation, it is a wise move for the other party to make such a choice!
"What Zhicai said is true!"

"Liu Bei has this intention, but it saves a lot of trouble!"

Liu Bei was able to take the initiative to surrender to Xuzhou, which could not have been better for Cao Cao.

This time, he has already occupied half of Xuzhou. If Liu Bei surrenders, all Xiapi will belong to him.

At that time, there will only be one Pengcheng left in Lu Bu!
With enemies on all sides, even if Lu Bu had great ability, he was helpless.

What's more, he, Lu Bu, is just a defeated general!
At this moment, Cao Cao even wanted to call Xi Yu, who was in Juancheng, to the front line.

If Xi Yu is here, what is a Lu Bu?
I'm afraid that after knowing Xi Yu's arrival, Lu Bu will flee with the army the next day, right?
It's a pity that although he thought so in his heart, Cao Cao knew Xi Yu's temperament well, and the other party had always been unwilling to be a general.

At this time, Cao Jun has not fallen into a deadlock, so there is no way to call Xi Yu here now!
After regaining his focus, Cao Cao looked up at Cao Ren and the others.

"Forget it, since Liu Bei is willing to open the city and surrender, you will all follow me to Xiapi tomorrow!"

The next day, Cao Cao led the army from Dongping to Xiapi.

Hearing that Cao Cao's army was coming, the gate of Xiapi City was wide open. At this time, Liu Bei led Guan Zhang and other people to wait at the gate of the city early.

at the same time.

In Xiapi City, Lu Bu of Pengcheng immediately learned of Liu Bei's surrender.

Hearing this news, Lu Bu was quite surprised.

He really planned to annex Liu Bei in one go, but before he could do it, Liu Bei joined forces with Cao Cao.

This incident was so unexpected that it made Lu Bu panic!

In the Pengcheng Government Office, Lu Buduan was the first, and Cao Bao, who had just joined the office, was the second.

"Your Majesty, I never thought that Liu Xuande would serve Cao Cao!"

"I never thought of it!"

Lu Bu was a little helpless.

Cao Bao on the side had already advocated a decisive battle with Cao Jun, and Lu Bu glanced at him, which was considered to be his approval.

Right now, he heard that there was no Xi Yu in Cao Jun.

Since that person is not around, he has nothing to fear from Cao Cao.

What's more, this time he has tens of thousands of soldiers from Xiliang, and tens of thousands of soldiers from Danyang brought by Cao Bao!
There are tens of thousands of people in total, plus the soldiers of Pengcheng and Tancheng, they are not afraid of Cao Cao at all.

The big deal is just fighting!

Tancheng!

"Liu Bei cooperated with Duke Cao?"

In the Chen residence, Chen Deng and his son, who had already decided to side with Cao Cao, were a little surprised to hear the news that Liu Bei had surrendered.

Chen Deng raised his head and glanced at his father, then the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"Liu Bei, you must be a real hero!"

Being able to make such a move in such a situation is not something that ordinary people can do.

Liu Bei is not Han Fu.

Han Fu ceded Jizhou to Yuan Shao, on the one hand, because Han Fu himself started from the Yuan family.

On the other hand, Han Fu could not resist Yuan Shao at all.

He has occupied Jizhou for a long time, and after all, he still has some business.

But Liu Bei is different!
Although Liu Bei took over Xuzhou Mu, it has only been a few months until now!
Liu Bei doesn't have such a big foundation in Xuzhou, and he has nothing to rely on.

He and Cao Cao can only be said to be acquaintances, and they have the friendship of the alliance in Hulaoguan, and there is nothing else.

There is no distinction between top and bottom!
But now, Liu Bei is willing to give up the Xuzhou he has obtained, which is not something ordinary people can do.

After all, this is the land of a state, the position of the shepherd of a state!
Give in as you say, this courage alone is beyond the reach of others!

"It doesn't matter whether you are a hero or a hero."

Chen Gui laughed, Liu Bei and Cao Cao's move was a very wise move.

Right now, since his Chen family is already on Cao Cao's side.

In the whole Xuzhou, besides Liu Bei, only Lu Bu is left!
The rest is how his Chen family helped Cao Cao drive Lu Bu out of Xuzhou!
……

Outside Xiapi city.

Cao Cao's body was riding with yellow claws flying lightning, and the bright yellow horse was extremely dazzling. Cao Cao, who was wearing a red cloak, was like a dazzling star at this moment.

When Liu Bei saw Cao Cao leading his horse, he immediately dismounted to meet him!

"Brother Meng De!"

Liu Bei had a happy expression on his face, like a friend he hadn't seen for many years. Seeing Cao Cao coming now, he was extremely excited.

Cao Cao dismounted immediately, Cao Ren, Xia Houyuan, left and right, followed by Xi Zhicai, Li Dian, and Le Jin!
Immediately, a group of people walked slowly towards Xiapi city.

Seeing that Cao Jun began to take over the entire city defense of Xiapi City, Liu Bei's face was calm and nothing unusual.

The two Guan and Zhang on the side were a little dull and said nothing.

At this moment, Cao Cao and Liu Bei walked towards the city of Xiapi hand in hand.

Cao Cao turned his head to look at Liu Bei, with a smile on his lips.

"Xuande, if I knew today, when Hulao was closed, you should have followed me all the time. Why would I need to go around like this today!"

The meaning of Cao Cao's words is too obvious.

This tone is quite sarcastic.

Liu Bei didn't seem to understand, and smiled at the corner of his mouth.

"Meng De is a rare hero in the world. It is only today that Bei has realized it!"

Hearing this, Cao Cao didn't say much.

He has already surrendered in Kaicheng, if he ridicules again and again, it will appear that he is a bit petty.

Although Liu Bei spoke right and wrong about him, the city defense of Xiapi City has been taken over by Cao Jun.

This matter has become a foregone conclusion, and there are no more variables.

After a group of people entered the Xiapi Yamen Office, Liu Bei invited Cao Cao to take the seat!
"Mund, please!"

Liu Bei humbly asked to sit down, but Cao Cao was not at all polite.

At this time, he didn't need to be polite, the entire Xiapi had been completely taken over by Cao Jun, and even the soldiers led by Liu Bei were completely taken over by him at this moment!
Liu Bei didn't even have any objection to this.

After Cao Cao took his seat, he invited Liu Bei to sit down. The latter sat down happily after hearing the sound, and Guan and Zhang naturally stood behind him!

"Yun Chang, Yi De, sit down too!"

Seeing the appearance of Guan and Zhang, Cao Cao spoke again, and the two glanced at Liu Bei without any hesitation, and immediately sat on both sides of Liu Bei's back.

After everyone was seated, Liu Bei had a smile on his face.

Cao Cao took a deep breath, feeling extremely refreshed.

It was something he had never imagined to be included in the whole of Xuzhou so easily.

All in all, everything went very well.

Seeing that there was nothing unusual about Liu Bei, Cao Cao couldn't help but look at him.

"Xuande, at this moment, how do you think we should deal with that Lu Bu!"

"Listen to Duke Cao's orders!"

Liu Bei changed his tone, saying that his words were matching just now, that was polite.

Now that the discussion has begun, Cao Cao calls him Biaozi, but he knows that his attitude is very important at this time.

Liu Bei's attitude is extremely low, which means that Cao Cao is the main one.

Hearing this, Cao Cao frowned slightly.

Xi Zhicai, who was seated on the other side, didn't open his mouth all the time. He took a few glances at Liu Bei and then spoke first.

"My lord, on this occasion, we shall attack Lu Bu!"

Xi Zhicai didn't say much.

But in Xuzhou, there are only Pengcheng and Tancheng controlled by Lu Bu!
But the land of two cities.

As long as Cao Jun's army suppresses the country, Lu Bu will be helpless!

Everyone is clear about this matter, and there is no need to say more.

But now, with Liu Bei's appointment, the entire Xuzhou has turned to Cao Cao. It is difficult for a Lu Bu to achieve a major event.

"it is good!"

"Then Lu Bu took advantage of my unpreparedness to attack my Yanzhou, this time is the time to take revenge!"

After Xi Zhicai opened his mouth, Cao Cao slammed on the table in front of him.

Immediately, a heroic breath spewed out from the corner of his mouth.

Liu Bei, who attacked, subconsciously glanced at Cao Cao.

At this glance, a trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes!
Before the Hulao Pass, Cao Cao was nothing more than a young official, a Xiaoqi school captain!
And he is also a little county lieutenant.

Although there is some gap between the two, the gap is not very big.

But, after a few years!

At this time, Cao Cao had become the lord of Yanzhou, and although he was lucky enough to get the position of Xuzhou Mu, this position was not stable at all.

There seems to be no difference between the status of the two on the surface.

But in fact, the difference between each other is like a natural moat.

Cao Cao has completely controlled the entire Yanzhou, with elite soldiers and strong generals, and many advisers.

As for him, he has the position of Xuzhou Mu, but he doesn't have too many soldiers, and there are very few who can make plans!

The comparison of such a situation made Liu Bei feel indescribably complicated.

In just a few years, the situation has changed so much.

Liu Bei was a little unwilling, but this unwillingness was quietly buried in his heart, and he still had a smile on his face.

"What Cao Gong said is true, this time I will rule Xuzhou!"

"Okay, Xuande is right!"

"Tomorrow, Xuande will go to Pengcheng with me!"

"This time, I will be Xuande, let me take a deep breath!"

There was a smile on the corner of Cao Cao's mouth, obviously he was angry in his heart, but he deliberately said that he was venting his anger for Liu Bei.

This is a bit deliberate.

Liu Bei just smiled at the corner of his mouth and obeyed!
That night!

After Liu Bei brought Guan and Zhang back to the house, Zhang Fei's expression was like a pig's liver.

"Brother, it's all because of me. If it wasn't for me, Ann would have such a scene!"

Zhang Fei blamed himself a little. If he hadn't been drunk and beat Cao Bao, how would he be in the current situation!
How could Liu Bei be forced to join Cao Cao helplessly!
There will be no Liu Bei who is so willing to be subordinated to others today!

Zhang Fei was so angry that he slapped himself twice. Seeing this scene, Liu Bei quickly blocked it!

"Yide, it's not your fault!"

"It's God's will!"

Even without Zhang Fei's drunkenness, it would be difficult for Liu Bei to live in Xuzhou.

After seeing a group of people under Cao Cao's command today.

Only then did Liu Bei realize how big the gap between him and Cao Cao was.

Not to mention the opponent's elite soldiers and good generals, there is no worry about the military rations alone.

Since the migratory locusts passed through the border, disasters have appeared in the entire Xuzhou.

As for Yanzhou, it seems that because of Xi Yu, when the locusts crossed the border, Yanzhou did not suffer much damage.

This is God's will!

God help Cao!
"Is General Guan here?"

When Liu Bei looked a little regretful, outside the house, suddenly there was the voice of a messenger.

Someone came to look for Guan Yu!
Hearing this, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei subconsciously looked at their second brother and second brother.

Guan Yu was also a little puzzled. After calling the messenger in, he saw that the messenger was holding a food box!
"I heard that General Guan hasn't eaten yet, this is from my lord!"

After the messenger put down the food box, he immediately looked at Liu Bei and Zhang Fei and said, "My lord also sent food boxes to the two generals!"

As he spoke, the messenger took two food boxes from behind and rushed up.

The lord that the messenger said was naturally Cao Cao.

The three of Liu, Guan and Zhang were a little puzzled, but they still took the food box over.

Guan Yu was a little surprised at first, but after seeing both his elder brother and third younger brother, he didn't have too many doubts.

The three of them took the food boxes, opened them casually, and saw a piece of bread, a mouthful of meat and some wine in each box.

The messenger glanced at the three of them, said nothing, and then withdrew.

Liu, Guan and Zhang looked at each other.

"Brother, Cao Cao won't poison us, will he?"

Zhang Fei frowned and looked at the food box in front of him, thinking about what Cao Cao sent, he had better not eat it!

Guan Yu didn't make a sound. After hearing what Zhang Fei said, he turned his head and fumbled for a silver needle from behind.

"Brother, non-toxic!"

"Cao Cao would never do such a thing!"

After seeing the non-toxic, Liu Bei also nodded slightly.

Think about things like poisoning, Cao Cao wouldn't do that either.

Unless, he really doesn't want any fame at all!

"Since it was sent by Meng De, the second and third brothers, I happen to be hungry too!"
