The Three Kingdoms are invincible

Chapter 171 Liu Bei Can't Calm Down

As Gao Shun expected, when Cao Cao learned that Xu You had been killed, he did not punish Dian Wei in any real way. He just pretended to cry bitterly, and then reprimanded Dian Wei severely, and it was over.

With Boss Cao's superb acting skills, it is no problem at all to shed a few tears.

Cao Cao didn't kill Xu You before, partly because he was afraid of other people's gossip, but he already had enough gossip, and he wouldn't care too much about any more.The more important reason is that Cao Cao is worried that the heroes of the world think that he is good at killing heroes, so he is unwilling to come and serve. This is somewhat unacceptable for Cao Cao, who is thirsty for talents.

But now that Xu You is dead, these worries don't matter.

Anyway, people cannot be resurrected after death, so how can others think and say, can you still control yourself?

Of course, Xu You was killed by Dian Wei, and he didn't know it beforehand.But if you say something like this, you need someone to believe it. Dian Wei is your subordinate. If you don't have your order, you dare to kill a hero?

When things got to this point, there was no point in punishing Dian Wei. Even if he wanted to punish him, what could he do? Beat him with dozens of army sticks?At that time, people will still think that you are just acting, and maybe you will leave the impression of being mean and ungrateful to the world: "Look, Dian Wei was ordered by Cao Cao to kill Xu You on the front foot, but Cao Cao on the back foot In order to disassociate himself from this matter, Dian Wei was beaten severely."

So, forget it.

If you want to truly let the world understand that Xu You's death really has nothing to do with you, you must kill Dian Wei.If Dian Wei were to pay for Xu You's life, others would know that it was really Dian Wei's audacity to kill Xu You on his own initiative.At that time, not only will people not say that Cao Cao is ruthless, but they may even praise him for his impartiality.

But is Cao Cao willing?To kill the beloved general for a mere Xu You?impossible!

What's more, that Xu You is extremely arrogant and has no dignity, so he deserves to die!

Cao Cao was reluctant to ask Dian Wei to pay for his life, and the stick blame cannot easily change the misunderstanding of the world. In this case, it is better to pretend to be generous and not punish Dian Wei at all, just verbally scold him.

It can be said that from the moment Dianwei said that he killed Xu You, Cao Cao had already taken over the matter.

Before Dian Wei came, he had already planned to exchange his life for his life. Even if Cao Cao was kind and didn't kill him, it is estimated that dozens of army sticks would not run away.In the end, I didn't want Cao Cao to scold himself a few words in the end, and then he didn't pursue it at all. This made Dian Wei feel like he had narrowly escaped death.

Since he had narrowly escaped death, Dian Wei was in a good mood at the moment, so he dragged Gao Shun to drink without saying a word.Although half of the training time had passed, it stands to reason that Gao Shun would return to the barracks immediately, but considering that there was still Hao Zhao leading the team in the barracks, it was fine.Although Hao Zhao is still young, his ability is not bad. If he is in charge, nothing will go wrong.Besides, I really haven't contacted this big brother for a long time, and it's not easy to take care of him right now, so the two found a good restaurant and drank heartily.

—————————————————————————————————————————— Mianyang City, inside General Zuo's Mansion.

Liu Bei's expression was not good. He had been unable to think for many days and could not sleep at night.

During the battle at Xiapi that day, the second and third younger brothers lost contact with each other. The third brother Zhang Fei is still missing, but there is news of the second brother Guan Yu.

However, this news is not good news for Liu Bei.

It is rumored that his second younger brother, Guan Yu, has now joined Cao Cao's tent, and was in the Battle of Guandu before, holding Yuan Shao's army back with his own strength, buying time for Cao Cao, who was at a disadvantage, to regroup.

In the current time and space, Guan Yu's reputation is much worse than that in the same period of history, and this battle almost made his reputation increase several times overnight.

And the deeds of his Guandu savior quickly spread throughout the country.

Even if Liu Bei can pretend again on weekdays, it is obviously impossible for him to remain calm when he hears the news.

Outsiders may not understand how close the relationship between the three Taoyuan brothers is, but Liu Bei himself knows it all too well.

To live and die together is easier said than done, but Liu Bei is convinced that the three of his brothers can really fulfill the promise of living and dying together.

Liu Bei may have deceived many people in his life, but in front of his two younger brothers, he has always been sincere, and he has never been hypocritical for a moment.

But now, his second brother Guan Yu is actually serving Cao Cao, how can this make him not feel disheartened.

At first Liu Bei thought it was a fake news spread by Cao Cao, so he sent many people to verify it, but everyone brought back the same answer - Guan Yu delayed Yuan Shao's army alone and bought a lot of time for Cao Cao.

Liu Bei began to despair, even Guan Yu could betray him, is there anyone in this world that he can trust?

It stands to reason that Liu Bei should be happy after learning that Guan Yu is still alive.But the problem is, he took refuge in Cao Cao, his number one mortal enemy!

No, no, the second brother will definitely not abandon me. He must have some unavoidable reasons for committing himself to Cao Ying.

On the one hand, he was worried about whether Guan Yu had really betrayed him, and on the other hand, he hoped that Guan Yu had temporarily succumbed to Cao Ying because of his own difficulties. These two thoughts were repeatedly entangled in Liu Bei's mind, which made him feel conflicted.In the past few days, Liu Bei can be said to have had trouble sleeping and eating.

"My lord..." Chen Gong came to discuss matters with Liu Bei, but as soon as he entered the door, Chen Gong noticed that Liu Bei was looking decadent again, and his brows could not help but frown slightly.

"My lord? Heh, what kind of lord am I now?" Liu Bei said with a wry smile, mocking himself.

In terms of generals, after Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are not around, the generals I can use now are Mi Fang and the like, not even second-rate; Today, only [-] soldiers and horses can be commanded.Speaking of which, in the whole world, is there another master who is as aggrieved as himself?

"My lord, how could you belittle yourself so absurdly? As long as my lord's ambition is still there, it doesn't matter if I live under the fence for a while. In the future, there will be a day when the dragon soars to the nine heavens!" Seeing Liu Bei's depression, Chen Gong couldn't help but reprimanded him.

The lord chosen by me, Chen Gongtai, can be as scheming as Lu Bu, but he must never lose his ambition to dominate the world!

"The dragon soars to the nine heavens?" Liu Bei couldn't help showing another bitter smile when he heard the words, "The third brother has never heard from him, and the second brother lives in Cao Ying. I have lost all my hands and feet. How can I have the time of the dragon?"
