Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

"Hmph, Liu Bei, you are my nemesis." Chen Gong sneered.

Chen Gong believed that Liu Bei's move was to attract Cao Ang's attention and thus share the pressure.

When Cao Ang had just ascended the throne, Liu Bei gave Cao Ang a lot of gifts.

Not only gold, silver and jewelry, but all kinds of rare treasures were given to Cao Ang.

It also included 20,000 war horses and millions of stones of grain.

When Cao Ang received the gift from Liu Bei, he was very moved and felt that his rescue of Liu Bei was not in vain.

He even gave Liu Bei a very high treatment. At the same time, Cao Ang also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to weaken Yuan Shao's power.

Liu Bei's actions made Yuan Shao mistakenly believe that Liu Bei had surrendered to Cao Ang.

Therefore, he became more cautious against Liu Bei and sent Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang to keep an eye on Liu Bei and strictly forbid him to go out.

Yuan Shu did not dare to act rashly because of Cao Ang's tough attitude and remained silent for the time being. Cao Ang did not care about Yuan Shu either, because he knew that Yuan Shu would not dare to act recklessly again.

Liu Bei has been very worried these days. Every day he is summoned to the palace by Cao Ang's envoys for talks, which gives him a headache.

Originally, Liu Bei planned to take this opportunity to repair his relationship with Cao Ang.

As a result, Cao Ang ignored him completely, which made Liu Bei feel disappointed. He did not expect Cao Ang to be so heartless.

Yuan Shao did not make any response, as if he had forgotten the alliance between them.

Liu Bei knew clearly that the alliance between them was based on interests.

If Yuan Shao helped him overcome the difficulties, he would offend Cao Ang, which Yuan Shao did not want to see.

Liu Bei also knew that he should bow to Cao Ang at this time, but he was unwilling to do so.

I have paid so much to have what I have today.

If I bow to Cao Ang, what will I have left? Who will follow me in the future?

Liu Bei's hesitation caused him to take no action.

Cao Ang knew that Liu Bei's character could not be changed.

He decided to use the most brutal method to force Liu Bei. If Liu Bei continued to behave like this, Cao Ang would kill Liu Bei without hesitation.

Liu Bei's behavior angered Cao Ang, who decided to kill Liu Bei first and report later.

Cao Ang ambushed many archers and swordsmen outside the courtyard where Liu Bei lived, waiting for Liu Bei to fall into his trap.

Liu Bei had also made arrangements and was ready to raid the governor's mansion.

Chen Gong and Guo Tu brought their troops and Liu Qi's guards to the vicinity of the governor's mansion.

Chen Gong looked at the governor's mansion and said, "Brother Gongqi, let's attack from here."

"Okay, let's charge!" Guo Tu said excitedly.

Chen Gong shook his head slightly. He always felt that things would not be that simple.

According to the historical experience of Liu Bei murdering Liu Xuande.

There should be a large number of troops hidden here, just like in Luoyang.

However, this is Cao Cao's lair, and Liu Bei would not be stupid enough to set an ambush here.

Guo Tu looked at Chen Gong's solemn expression and couldn't help but pat his chest and assured him: "Gongtai, don't worry, our troops are enough to deal with any danger."

"Well, Brother Gongqi, you'd better be careful." Chen Gong warned, and then led his subordinates to attack the governor's mansion.

"Shoot!" Guo Tu shouted.

Countless arrows flew over and covered Chen Gong and others.

Chen Gong and others hurriedly dodged the arrows, and at this time, a large number of soldiers and horses emerged around the governor's mansion.

"Kill!" Liu Bei waved his halberd and rushed towards Chen Gong with his troops.

Liu Bei had already anticipated that such a day would come, and had arranged troops to guard the governor's mansion in advance.

Chen Gong and others suffered a severe blow from the very beginning.

The two sides fought for a while, and finally Chen Gong and others were eliminated, and Liu Bei's side also suffered heavy losses, with more than 3,000 casualties.

When Liu Bei's soldiers saw that Chen Gong was defeated, they fled. Liu Bei led the remaining soldiers into the governor's mansion.

"Chen Gong, I really admire your courage. You knew I had set a trap here, but you still dared to lead your troops deep into our territory." Cao Ang appeared at the gate of the Governor's Mansion.

Standing beside Cao Ang were powerful generals such as Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, Lu Bu, Taishi Ci, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, and Xiahou Yuan, making the lineup very powerful.

Liu Bei's heart tightened, but he said, "Uncle, I just heard that you set an ambush here, so I led my troops here."

"Oh? If that's the case, why don't you leave your troops behind to provide cover?" Cao Ang asked with a smile.

Liu Bei said awkwardly: "I don't want to implicate my subordinates, I just want to talk to my uncle face to face."

"Haha, you are afraid that I will eat your troops. I will do as you wish!" Cao Ang laughed.

Liu Bei's face was gloomy. He didn't expect Cao Ang to be so blunt.

Liu Bei didn't continue talking nonsense. He pointed his weapon at Cao Ang and said.

"Cao Ang, even if I, Liu Bei, fail today, you can't expect to gain any advantage."

"Oh, are you confident that you can leave here?" Cao Ang asked lightly.

"You'll know if you try it." Liu Bei's eyes were firm, as if he wanted to scare Cao Ang away with his eyes.

"Okay, then let me see your strength." Cao Ang drew out the Overlord Spear from his waist.

"Huang Zhong, Feng Xiao, capture Liu Bei for me."

"I obey your command." Huang Zhong and Ju Su bowed in agreement and led their personal guards to attack Liu Bei.

Liu Bei also drew his sword to meet the enemy.

Although Liu Bei had some strategies, he was defeated again and again under the joint attack of Huang Zhong and Ju Shou.

Liu Bei knew that he was in great danger today.

Cao Ang watched Liu Bei struggling to hold on and did not choose to pursue the victory.

Cao Ang knew that his strength was not as good as Liu Bei's. If he chased after him, he would definitely be counterattacked by Liu Bei.

Moreover, Liu Bei had something that Cao Ang coveted, so Cao Ang decided to wait for an opportunity.

Cao Ang watched the situation evolve.

After Liu Bei resisted for a while, he found that Huang Zhong and Ju Shou cooperated too closely and he could not find any gaps at all, so he could only passively take the beating.

Liu Bei knew that he might not be able to escape this time.

Liu Bei struggled internally for a while, and finally roared with gritted teeth.

"Cao Ang, just kill me. I won't tell you the secret of my treasure map. You can never get that treasure map even in your dreams."

"Haha, Liu Bei, I didn't expect that you, a relative of the Han royal family, would do such a despicable and shameless thing. You really bring shame to our ancestors." Cao Ang said sarcastically.

Liu Bei was furious and said, "Cao Ang, stop pretending, if you really have the guts, kill me.

Kill me, and you will never get the treasure map."

Liu Bei actually did this to anger Cao Ang so that Cao Ang would kill him quickly.

Unfortunately, Cao Ang’s IQ is not low, so there is no way he would be fooled by Liu Bei.

"Okay! I'll help you. Come, capture Liu Bei for me." Cao Ang said coldly.

When Chen Gong and Guo Tu saw this, they knew that the situation was hopeless and immediately fled with their men.

"Want to run?" Cao Ang yelled, "Chase him! We can't let Liu Bei get away."

Cao Ang led his troops and frantically chased Chen Gong, Guo Tu and others.

How could Cao Ang miss such a good opportunity?

Chen Gong and Guo Tu ran desperately, but they were getting farther and farther away from the city gate.

At this time, Liu Bei and his troops broke through the obstruction and escaped from the city.

The troops sent by Cao Ang could not catch up with Liu Bei. (End of this chapter)
