Cao Thief

Chapter 240

"Xuande!"

Cao Cao greeted him personally outside the large tent of the Chinese Army, and held Liu Bei's hand very enthusiastically, talking while walking, looking very affectionate.

Cao Peng was ignored...

Satisfied, Liu Bei entered the big tent with Cao Cao. Cao Peng stood outside the tent, stomped his feet, turned his head and left.

"Ah Fu, where are you going?"

"I'm going back to Haixi."

Cao Peng is really hot!
What do you mean Cao Mengde?
I worked so hard for you, to seek justice for you, but the result was good, you didn't even pay attention to me?

Since you don't like me, you only value Liu Bei.So I'm sorry, I won't serve you anymore...I'll go back to my Haixi, you can do whatever you like.

After rebirth, Cao Peng deliberately kept a low profile, but the arrogance in his bones could not be changed for a lifetime.

Don't look at him usually laughing and joking, he seems to be easy to talk to.Seriously now, even ten cows couldn't pull him back.

"Ah Fu, you..."

Dianman was startled, and hurried forward to stop Cao Peng.

Unexpectedly, just as his hand patted Cao Peng's shoulder, Cao Peng slumped his shoulder, grabbed his arm with his backhand, leaned back, and knocked Dianman to the ground all at once.Dian Wei was dumbfounded. He used to think that Cao Peng was gentle, but why did he become so arrogant today?

"Ah Fu, you stop."

Cao Pengli ignored him and just walked out.

"Stop him for me."

Dian Wei quickly ordered, and the Huben army immediately swarmed up, blocking Cao Peng's way.

Cao Peng was really angry this time!

"Since you treat me like an abandoned shoe, why stop me?"

"Ah Fu, if you are dissatisfied, you can tell Mr. Cao later. Mr. Cao brought you here, but you left without saying goodbye, what a shame."

"Mr. Cao only cares about that villain, and An De puts me in his eyes?

Then Liu Xuande plundered my grain and grass and injured me.Mr. Cao didn't even ask, he just cared about making out with that big-eared thief, what's the use of me staying here? "

Cao Peng's voice was very loud, and it was directly transmitted into the big tent of the Chinese army.

To be honest, Cao Cao does value Liu Bei more.So just now, Cao Peng's existence was unknowingly ignored.

Cao Peng made such a fuss outside the big tent, and everyone in the Chinese army's big tent showed dissatisfaction.

Originally, Liu Bei had the upper hand, sitting in the tent, feeling a little proud.I robbed your food and beat your songs, so what can you do?In the eyes of Cao Gong, you are just an ignorant child. Do you think you can do whatever you want after you have made some contributions?

But now, he was on pins and needles.

Cao Cao's face suddenly sank.

"Let that kid report to the door."

Cao Cao also felt that his face was dull, and shouted loudly.

Everyone in the tent couldn't help frowning slightly, as if they were a little dissatisfied with Cao Cao's move.

"Ah Fu, my lord wants you to report to the door."

"I didn't do anything wrong, so why should I report to the door? Could it be that it's justified to steal other people's things, and I've worked so hard, but I don't even have a place to reason? Cao Gong treats me like this, I don't like it." Convinced... In that case, I will take my leave."

If you change someone, you might just bow your head.

But Cao Peng would never bow his head at this time.

He knew that he had reason.If you take a step back at this time, all the efforts you have made before will be in vain.He just wants Cao Cao to know his existence and remember his existence.He wants to tell Cao Cao that what he did was not wrong!
The pride in Liu Bei's heart disappeared.

The eyes of everyone in the big tent were like knives cutting across his body, making him feel very uncomfortable.

"Cao Gong, what happened today is really the fault of Bei.

Such disasters are caused by lax preparation and control.Six thousand dendrobium grains and grasses were left untouched, and they were ordered to be returned to Duke Cao immediately.I also ask Meng De to forgive me, as for the little general...in fact, there is nothing wrong with it, it's just that Bei is too arrogant on weekdays, so that...Meng De made thousands of mistakes, all of which were Bei's faults.Also please don't blame the little general, otherwise Bei's heart will be really hard to settle down. "

"Hey, why should Xuande care about it? It's just a small misunderstanding, but that kid made a big fuss about it!"

Cao Cao waved his hand, "Let's leave the six thousand dendrobium grain and grass at Xuande's place. Just ask Xuande to go back and restrain himself so as not to go on business again."

After finishing speaking, Cao Cao yelled sharply: "Dian Wei, don't arrest that kid yet."

Dian Wei got the order outside the tent, and hugged Cao Peng.

"Ah Fu, don't make trouble anymore... If you continue to make trouble, you can't help Liu Xuande, but you will fold yourself in."

"I……"

Dian Wei covered Cao Peng's mouth with his big hand, carried him to a small tent beside him, and then pushed Cao Peng in, "Listen to me, I know you are wronged. But in a big battle, we should consider the overall situation It's not that the lord doesn't want to be punished, but that Liu Xuande is considered a hero after all, if he is forced to rush him, I'm afraid it will be at a disadvantage to the battle situation. Ah Fu, listen to me, you stay here and don't make any more noise."

Cao Peng said angrily, "Dianjun Ming, have you begun to understand the overall situation?"

"I……"

"A man should act decisively when doing things. Who is Liu Xuande? Don't you know? If Lu Bu is a tiger, Liu Xuande is an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf. Cao Cao ignored many soldiers under his command, but only valued Liu Xuande. I wait to be chilled? That big-eared thief is even more ungrateful than Lu Bu. If he is left alone, sooner or later he will definitely become the lord's confidant..."

Dian Wei was speechless, so he could only be embarrassed and quit the military tent.

My lord's actions today, I'm afraid I'm really angry with Ah Fu... But if this happened to me, I wouldn't let Liu Xuande go.

----------------------

What is politics?
To put it bluntly, it is the most shameless, ugliest, and darkest thing in the world.

It's not that Cao Peng doesn't understand politics, it's just that he will never learn, the so-called 'thick black'.He just couldn't see it, and he just felt that Cao Cao favored one over another.We are the ones who live in Haixi, we are the ones who provide food and grass for you, and we are the ones who even help you fight the war.

Why do you want to value Liu Bei who is impossible to attach to you?
It is impossible for Cao Peng to become a politician, which is doomed by his character.

However, his uproar outside the big tent of the Chinese army made Liu Bei a little restless.After exchanging a few words with Cao Cao, he said goodbye and left.

Dian Wei came in just as he was leaving the big tent.

The moment the two passed by each other, Dian Wei suddenly let out a cold snort, and slammed into Liu Bei's body in a sideways manner.

"Mr. Xuande be careful."

Dian Wei bumped Liu Bei into a stagger, and gave him a good-hearted look to help him.

"This matter is not over."

He gritted his teeth and whispered in Liu Bei's ear.

Liu Bei secretly complained in his heart, but he could only pretend to be happy, and said repeatedly: "It's okay, it's okay."

I thought that Cao Peng was just a boy from an ordinary background.But now it seems that Cao Peng's connections in Cao Ying are not small.

Dian Wei walked into the big tent and stepped in to report back.

But Cao Cao had a gloomy face, and he didn't seem to be happy at all.

"My lords, Xuande is a clan member of the Han family. Although he is not a famous person today, he is still a man of great ability. I value him and treat him leniently. Is it wrong?"

In the big tent, there was a moment of silence.

"That's right, Cao Youxue did have merit, and he was indeed wronged.

But now the war has not subsided, and Lu Bu has not yet settled down.I should keep Liu Bei safe, lest I be taken advantage of by Lu Bu... Isn't that right?Liu Bei is a great man!Youxue's move today is unavoidable, and it may ruin the battle in Xuzhou. "

Xun You stood up suddenly, "Sikong, although Youxue is wrong, there is nothing wrong with it.

Lu Bu, the turtle in the urn, is nothing to worry about.But my lord, if you treat Liu Xuande so kindly, you need to know that Liu Bei is even better than Lu Bu and Lu Fengxian. "

"My lord, you were able to besiege Xiapi today because of the service of the soldiers. It was Shusun and Youxue who fought desperately to be the first. What does it have to do with Liu Xuande? When you didn't take Pengcheng in the first place, Liu Bei's troops pushed back and forth. I only know that we need to ask for luggage, and the progress is slow; at that time, in the land of Huaisi, it was Youxue who desperately held back Lu Bu... Now, your army is surrounding Xiapi, and Liu Bei is running faster than anyone else... You I also saw that you are so generous to him, but he doesn't care about you at all for those parts."

Cao Cao was silent!
"How is the boy now?"

"He...wasn't very happy anyway.

However, the protagonist doesn't need to take children's temper to heart.If this kind of thing is placed on me, I may not feel happy. "

Dian Wei answered cautiously, and Cao Cao couldn't help laughing.

"Jun Ming, I won't argue with that kid...but you also think that I treat Liu Xuande too kindly?"

"My lord, you treat them too kindly!" Cao Hong stood up angrily, and said loudly, "In my opinion, Liu Xuande's reputation is nothing more than nothing."

Cao Cao let out a long breath, and Nian Xu fell into deep thought.

"By the way, where is Feng Xiao?"

"Feng Xiao went out in the afternoon, saying that he wanted to see the topography of Xiapi."

"If he comes back, let him see me right away." Cao Cao pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Cao Youxue and his trilogy, first enter the camp and then talk about it. For the time being, I will be assigned to Commander Zilian. Zilian, give me a good discipline. Boy, why is the person who is going to be the Captain of the Nong in the coming year so reckless that he can't save anything? As for Liu Xuande... I'll give him [-] hu of food, and it depends on how he behaves."

Everyone heard it and couldn't help but understand it.

Although Liu Bei got [-] hu of grain, it would not be so easy if he thought about working hard...

How could Cao Cao's advantage be so easy for Liu Xuande to take advantage of?Next, if he didn't attack Xiapi violently, he might not be able to justify it.

————————————————————————————

When it was almost Xu time, Guo Jia came back from the outside.

As soon as he entered the camp, he heard about Cao Peng's disturbance in Liu Bei's barracks, and he couldn't help laughing.

Cao Cao had already fallen asleep, but when he heard that Guo Jia had returned, he put on his clothes and got up again.After sitting down in the military tent, he ordered drinks to be served, and then let out a long sigh.

"My lord, I'm worried about Youxue's actions in the afternoon."

"This little guy is really restless. He didn't report to me first when such a big incident happened. Instead, he brought a series of songs to trouble Liu Bei."

"My lord, this is a good thing."

"Good thing?"

"If not, then how could Liu Xuande work hard?"

"But……"

"My lord, the more Cao Peng is like this, the more it shows that he has a magnanimous mind. As for being proud of his merits, it's not necessarily true. I'm afraid it's more because he thinks about the lord. Liu Xuande robbed the lord of food. If he doesn't make a fuss, the lord How can you fall down with this stick?"

Cao Cao laughed!

"Those who know me are filial piety."

That's right, Liu Bei robbed food and grass, but Cao Cao couldn't blatantly blame him.

But with Cao Peng's disturbance, although Cao Cao didn't blame Liu Bei, any words of blame would be vicious.Liu Bei could only attack the city desperately, but could no longer find excuses to shirk.At the same time, Cao Cao can also take this opportunity to get the name of a generous and respectful corporal, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.It's just that Cao Cao's thoughts can't be told to others, only Guo Jia guessed his thoughts.

"However, Cao Peng is right in saying that Liu Bei's harm is even worse than that of a tiger."

"Then what should I do?"

Guo Jia smiled slightly, "Tigers can hurt people because they walk in the mountains and forests. If they are trapped in a cage, they can only be watched by people and cannot be harmed.

After this battle is over, the Lord can take the opportunity to take him to Xudu.

After arriving in Xudu, even if Liu Bei is powerful, so what?When the time comes, the lord will not even need a single soldier, but just an imperial edict to decapitate him.If Liu Bei is outside, he is a man-eating tiger. If he is in Xudu, what is the difference between him and cats and dogs? "

When Cao Cao heard this, he clapped his hands and laughed.

"What Feng Xiao said won my heart deeply."

Guo Jia's face turned serious, and he said softly: "My lord, there is one more thing that I need to tell my lord."

"But it doesn't matter."

"I have a plan to defeat Xiapijian City."

"Oh?"

"Speaking of which, this plan still depends on Cao Peng's reminder.

Cao Peng once joked with Yuande and Mingli, saying that Xiapi is surrounded by water, which can be broken in one fell swoop.I checked the terrain in the afternoon, and found that the next Pi was as it said.The exit from Xiapi is just a depression, and there is Yishui and Surabaya running through it... Now, it is the middle of winter, and the river is not in a hurry.My lord, why don't you take the opportunity to build a dam to store water, and when the time is right, the water will flood Xiapi.At that time, no matter how high the city is, it will not be used. "

"Build a dam to store water and flood Xiapi?"

Cao Cao was overjoyed, but immediately smiled wryly and said, "You said that Cao Peng is sometimes reckless and sometimes scheming.

This kid's virtue and talent are not weak, to be honest, I think it seems a bit wronged to let him stay in Guangling..."

Guo Jia said: "It is precisely because he is upright that he needs to be tempered."

Cao Cao hesitated for a moment, "Then let him stay in Xiapi and be assigned by Zilian temporarily.

Isn't it necessary to build a dam to store water?Let Zi Lian take charge of this matter... Give me an order to attack Xiapi violently from tomorrow, so that there is no chance for them to breathe. "

It is not to give Lv Bu a chance to breathe, but it is better to say that it is to cover the dam to store water, so that Lv Bu cannot be aware of it.

In this way, Cao Peng got his wish and stayed outside Xiapi City, and he was working under Cao Hong's tent, so he seemed very comfortable.

He and Cao Hong are partners, Luoyang's Prosperity Casino is now making a lot of money.

Naturally, Cao Hong would not treat Cao Peng badly, and made him the commander of the army, pretending to join the army, and responsible for the security work of building dams and storing water.Although it is called Cao Hong Trilogy, it is actually like leading an army by itself.In addition to chatting with Cao Hong every day, Cao Peng pays more attention to the battle situation in Xiapi.

On November [-]th, Lu Bu suddenly rushed out of Xiapi, carrying Lu Lan on his back, trying to break out of the siege.

Unexpectedly, Liu Bei found out, and led Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to stop him.Afterwards, Xiahoudun, Xu Huang and others dispatched one after another, and finally made Lu Bu return without success, and returned to Xiapi again.In this battle, Liu Bei suffered heavy losses.Both Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were injured and were unable to continue the attack.

Subsequently, Cao Cao ordered Liu Bei's troops to retreat from the south gate, and Cao Hong's troops took over.

All Liu Bei's soldiers and horses became Cao Hong's subordinates except for his "Bai Yan Bing".Although Liu Bei was reluctant, he had no choice but to give up his soldiers and horses, take his trilogy with him, and retreat to the camp of the Chinese Army at the North Gate, waiting for Cao Cao's dispatch.

Cao Cao dismissed Liu Bei's military power lightly, which made Cao Peng full of emotion.

But he was more concerned about the situation in Xiapi... because he knew that Lu Bu's breakout was actually to get Yuan Shu's reinforcements.If he failed to break through, Lu Bu had no hope.Next, the only thing waiting for Lu Bu is death, and Cao Peng followed suit and started to act!
