Three Kingdoms: Becoming Stronger from the Thief Who Cut the Beard

His ideal base camp is in Jizhou, and preferably Yecheng, where Yuan Shao's base camp is.

So the opportunity has to wait.

Zhuolu County was broken, and in the entire Shanggu County, only Liu Bei's whereabouts were left! "Lord, lord!"

When Chen Peng was about to enter Zhuolu City, Zhao Yun, dressed in silver frost armor, came to report.

"What's wrong, Zilong!"

Chen Peng asked.

Zhao Yun, who came to the front and back, helped the horse to stop, and then cupped his hands and said, "My lord, the scout in front of you has found the trace of Liu Bei.

"

"Um"

Chen Peng frowned.

Gongsun Zan originally wanted to guard two cities with Liu Bei.

In this way, when you are attacking the city, you must always pay attention to the rear.

Gongsun Zan's arrangement was originally very reasonable, the two cities formed an horn, but they supported each other.

Chen Peng naturally knew this, so he arranged an ambush to ambush Liu Bei's reinforcements.

However, Chen Peng deliberately let go of the soldiers that Gongsun Zan asked for help, but after waiting for several days, he could not get Liu Bei's reinforcements.

This made Chen Peng feel very puzzled.

Gongsun Zan also shouted that Liu Bei had mistaken him before he died.

What is this ear doing? "Tell me, what is that ear doing? Are you guarding the lost city?"

Chen Peng said.

Zhao Yun hurriedly shook his head.

"My lord, Liu Bei did not guard the city, but retreated outside the pass with the city and the surrounding people.

"

Zhao Yun said hurriedly.

"what did you say"

Chen Peng was stunned: "You said that Liu Bei ran away with the people of the fallen city and the surrounding people."

Chen Peng looked shocked.

The surrounding generals also showed puzzled expressions.

This Liu Bei ran away, why did he take the common people to run with him? Zhao Yun nodded quickly and continued: "My subordinates heard from some common people who have not left, and heard Liu Bei's statement that if the lord attacked the city, the city would be slaughtered. In order to prevent the people from being caught in the war, the people were moved away!"

The expression on Chen Peng's face after listening to it can't be described as wonderful.

Well, this ear can really toss.

He remembered that after the defeat of Cao Cao in Xinye, Liu Da'er once fled south with more than [-] people from Xinye and Fancheng.

This incident also established Liu Bei's name as the prince of benevolence and righteousness.

But Chen Peng doesn't think so.

No matter what others think, Liu Bei took Xinye and the people of Fancheng to escape.

But he did not think Liu Bei was benevolent and righteous.

Cao Cao has a criminal record of massacre the city, but Cao Cao is not a fool, there is no reason to kill a city and kill it.

Even if Liu Bei didn't move to Xinye and the people of Fancheng, the two would probably be at peace with each other. At that time, Cao Cao was already the biggest prince, and he wouldn't do anything to slaughter the city. What Cao Cao needed at that time was a good reputation. Therefore, after the city is broken, the people must be appeased.

However, Liu Bei said that Cao Cao took the people and fled together in order to avoid the people's suffering after the city was destroyed.

Chen Peng estimated that there was only one smart person among them.

And this smart man is called Zhuge Liang! When Liu Bei fled, Zhuge Liang once persuaded Liu Bei several times to let Liu Bei abandon the people.

But Liu Bei refused every time.

The reason for this is probably only known to Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang.

Liu Bei's army is weak, and he is not Cao Cao's opponent at all. There is only one reason why he still supports the people.

That is because without the cover of the people, Liu Bei would not be able to escape the pursuit of Cao Cao's tigers and leopards.

At that time, Cao Cao already had the world-famous tiger and leopard cavalry, and it was completely effortless to catch up with Liu Bei.

But it was different with hundreds of thousands of people.

The first scattered people can slow down the speed of Cao Cao's advance.

The second innumerable people were everywhere, so Cao Jun couldn't tell which one belonged to Liu Bei.

And as a result, there are many innocent people killed by Cao Jun.

And why did Zhuge Liang persuade Liu Bei to give up the common people? Why didn't Liu Bei allow him to lose his wife and children and not to lose the common people? Isn't it contradictory? So there is only one answer.
