Chapter 357

Re-selecting [-] elite soldiers, Cao Cao aggressively charged towards Pengcheng, where Lu Bu was already stationed, and he wanted to fight against him.

"My lord, there are two big camps outside Pengcheng, which are the horns of each other. They are easy to defend but difficult to attack! The banners of the two big camps are Liu and Zhang respectively."

The scouts came to report, making Cao Cao frown.Lu Bu is so defensive, he is really not good at attacking!
"Explore and report again!"

After waving the scouts back, Cao Cao asked Xun You, the military commander, "Gongda, what should our army do if Lu Bu is devoted to defense? This flag is undoubtedly Zhang Liao, but is this Liu flag?"

"My lord, could it be that you have forgotten that Liu Bei and Liu Xuande abandoned Liu Biao and defected to Lu Bu at the beginning of time."

Xun Youlue reminded after pondering.In Lu Bu's army, there is only one Liu Bei who can hold the flag of General Liu.

"I often hear that Liu Xuande has great ambitions, but I never thought that he would worship under Lu Bu today!"

When Liu Bei was mentioned, Cao Cao became interested.How can a person like Liu Bei be willing to be inferior to others?Cao Cao was slightly puzzled.

"My lord, I have a plan to defeat Lu Bu!"

Xun You said mysteriously.

His statement made Cao Cao very happy:

"Since Gongda has a clever plan, why don't you come quickly?"

Cao Cao pretended to be angry, but Xun You smiled, calmed down his appearance and said:

"My lord, Liu Xuande is a man with a deep city, and he has always taken it as his duty to frame and support the Han Dynasty. He has been very active since the princes sought Dong. Unfortunately, for some reason, he is often secretly suppressed by Wu Shun. He has never had a chance to rise. Now Going to Lu Bu, who is not compatible with Wu Shun, is like a dragon returning to the sea!"

Xun You spoke eloquently for a long time, but Cao Cao was confused.How about Liu Bei, can he still have a relationship with Wu Shun?
"Gongda, you haven't mentioned your plan yet."

Cao Cao reminded.

"My lord, don't worry, if the scheme is to succeed, it needs the cooperation of Liu Bei."

Xun You is still unhurried, which is a common problem of their advisers.Talking about something can kill people.

"Liu Bei? He has only been with Lu Bu for a short time, so I'm afraid he still won't be trusted?"

If someone goes to him, Cao Cao cannot trust him in a short time.So he felt that Lu Bu should be the same as him.

Seeing that Cao Cao still had doubts, Xun You simply said:
"The lord has forgotten Liu Bei's ability. With his eloquence, Lu Bu will probably believe it. Otherwise, Liu Bei will definitely not let Liu Bei lead a big camp alone."

"That's right, then how to use Liu Bei to defeat Lu Bu?"

This is what Cao Cao is most concerned about. Through Xun You's description just now, Cao Cao already knows that the key point of the strategy lies in Liu Bei.

"Since Liu Bei has always had great ambitions, my lord might as well create an opportunity for him to defeat Lu Bu in the battle and let him make a contribution! When Liu Bei has strength, the lord can join forces with Liu Bei to destroy Lu Bu!"

"Then attack Liu Bei before his wings are full?" Cao Cao laughed.

Although Xun You's move took a long time, he was able to destroy Lu Bu with the smallest cost, which was very attractive to Cao Cao.

There is Yuan Shao in the north, who is eyeing a tiger, and Wu Shun, whose strength is unknown in the southwest, Cao Cao will not really fight Lu Bu to the death!
"I will leave this matter to Gongda. What to do, you have the final say!"

With the decentralization of power, Cao Cao is very relaxed, and he is still very relieved of Xun You's ability.

Two days later, Cao Jun set up camp [-] miles away from Pengcheng, without the slightest tendency to attack.Lu Bu wanted to go out of the city to fight, but was dissuaded by Chen Gong.But Zhang Liao and Liu Bei did not get Lv Bu's order, so they all guarded the camp and stepped up patrols at night.

"Brother, why don't you think Cao Cao has come to attack yet? My old Zhang hasn't killed an enemy for a long time!"

Zhang Fei's rough voice came from the big tent, and Zhang Fei had a lot of opinions on Cao Jun not taking the initiative to attack.

"Third brother, there are only five thousand soldiers in my battalion, so Cao Cao can't come here. If there is a real war, casualties are inevitable, and it will be of no benefit to my three brothers."

Liu Bei didn't want to see the casualties of his soldiers. This was his power, so how could he be willing to lose it?

"General Liu, someone asked to see me, and said it was your old friend!"

A young general came in with a red face to report.It can be seen that Liu Bei's "old friend" has given a lot of benefits.

"It's an old friend, so prepare to meet him in person!"

After all, Liu Bei went out of the big tent first to welcome the old man.Guan Yu and Zhang Fei also got up and followed.

……

"Mr. Xuande, it's been a long time since I've voted under Marquis Wen's command. It's a good fortune to play tricks on people. It's really emotional."

The old man was Xun You, who started to mock Liu Bei when he saw him.But on the surface, there is no hint of sarcasm.

The young general who just reported the news heard that old friends want to see each other and greet each other!
"I haven't seen you for a long time, sir. I thought you forgot about Liu Bei, please, sir!"

With outsiders by his side, how could Liu Bei dare to reveal Xun You's identity.Since Cao Cao sent someone to look for him, something must have happened, and it was a good thing.

After welcoming Xun You into the big tent and swaying the left and right sides back, Liu Bei asked directly, "I don't know what's the matter, sir?"

"I'm here especially for Duke Xuande!"

Xun You looked calm and confident.

"Oh? Since that's the case, please tell me clearly, sir!"

To fight dumb fans, with Liu Bei's IQ, he must not be able to compete with a resourceful person like Xun You.So Liu Bei asked Xun You to directly explain his intention.

"I have heard that Duke Xuande has always taken it as his duty to frame and help the Han family, why did he vote for such an immoral person like Lu Bu?"

Xun You expressed his regret, and seemed very disappointed with Liu Bei's decision.With that angry and indisputable expression, if the person sitting opposite was not Liu Bei, he would definitely open his heart to Xun You and vomit bitterness.

Who is Liu Bei?How could it be possible to fall into the temptation of such words.

"It takes one person to complete the frame and support the Han Dynasty. Now Marquis Wen is strong and strong, and with Bei's careful assistance, he will definitely be able to frame the Han Dynasty and restore the glory of the Han Dynasty in the future!"

Lu Bu's strength is not weak. In name, Liu Bei is now Lu Bu's subordinate.Naturally, I want to say that Lu Bu is good, and let Xun You know that if he doesn't have a big bargaining chip, he can't talk to Liu Bei.

Seeing Liu Bei being cautious, Xun You was about to reveal his true intentions, and if he continued to talk like this, he would die of exhaustion.

"My lord calls Duke Xuande a hero in the world, and is willing to help Duke Xuande take charge of Xuzhou. I don't know what to do?"

After Xun You finished speaking, Liu Bei didn't go crazy immediately, but fell silent, he was weighing the pros and cons!

"Sure enough, I am unwilling to let others down. After getting rid of Lu Bu, I should persuade my lord to kill Liu Bei first, otherwise it will be a big disaster!"

Seeing Liu Bei meditating, many ideas flashed in Xun You's head!Liu Bei is hiding too well, and the city is terrible!
"I don't know what Cao Gong's intention is?"

After a long time, Liu Bei finally asked.If he could use Cao Cao to squeeze out Lu Bu, why would he not do it?

When he was in Xiaopei, Liu Bei had been in contact with the Chen family, and Chen Deng admired him so much that he almost paid homage to the lord on the spot.In fact, in Chen Deng's eyes, the most important thing is Liu Bei's identity. Although he is down and out, he is the uncle recognized by the emperor after all.

Liu Bei is ambitious and courageous!He felt that he could use Cao Cao's hand to occupy Xuzhou, and then cooperate with the Chen family to firmly control Xuzhou!In this way, he has a foundation!

Hearing Liu Bei's initiative to ask, Xun You no longer pretended to be a joke, and directly confessed:
"My lord will attack the two camps outside the city at the same time. At that time, we will launch a feint attack, and then lose to you, Duke Xuande. This will increase Duke Xuande's right to speak in the Xuzhou camp. When Duke Xuande becomes powerful, we will send troops to attack and destroy it together." Lu Bu!"

"It's a very important matter, can you have time to think about it?"

Liu Bei didn't dare to make a decision on such a big matter.

"Yes, I will ask Lord Xuande to make a decision in three days. During this period, our army will fight normally, and our general will be defeated by the two generals Guan and Zhang in order to increase the prestige of the two generals!"

Liu Bei wanted to think, and Xun You was ready to leave.It is still very dangerous to do things under Lu Bu's nose.

With Lu Bu's character, he didn't do this kind of thing, it was just talk.What's more, Xun You is not a messenger, but a spy who specializes in sabotage.
