We agreed that you, a weak strategist, would fight against three heroes by yourself?
Chapter 102 How about drinking and causing trouble?
"Damn Lu Bu, he is too arrogant, brother, if we don't get rid of this person, he will become a big trouble!"
Inside Xiapi City.
After Liu Bei succeeded Xuzhou Mu, the Xuzhou administrative seat began to move from Tancheng to Xiapi.
At this moment, Liu, Guan, and Zhang were sitting side by side in the back hall of the government office.
Zhang Fei's tone was indignant and he couldn't help but get up and cursed loudly.
That posture made him want to lift his sword and chop off Lu Bu's head.
The day before Tao Qian's funeral.
Lu Bu took the initiative to attend the funeral. After some events, Liu Bei, for some unknown reason, took the Xuzhou seal and prepared to entrust it to Lu Bu in public.
Hearing this, Lu Bu looked overjoyed.
If not, Guan and Zhang, as well as all Xuzhou subordinates, were all looking at him angrily, and Lu Bu would have agreed on the spot.
At that time, Zhang Fei was already extremely unhappy with Lu Bu.
This time migratory locusts are passing through.
Lu Bu and his men went so far as to expropriate grain and grass in Xuzhou. Such behavior clearly showed that Liu Bei was not taken seriously.
Zhang Fei, who learned about this, was naturally the first to sit still.
Others are afraid of Lu Bu, but Zhang Fei is not afraid!
"Third brother, don't be upset!"
"On this occasion, Cao Cao's army is still eyeing the East China Sea. If we meet Lu Bu at war, wouldn't it mean that Cao Cao is reaping the benefits?"
Liu Bei was also a little angry at Lu Bu's move.
But he knew that at this moment, it was not the time to fall out with Lu Bu.
At present, Xuzhou is facing an abyss, and the locusts passing through have caused the entire Xuzhou to lose its harvest.
If war breaks out again, Xuzhou simply cannot afford it.
In fact, Liu Bei had been writing letters to Cao Cao during this period.
"Brother is still too kind!"
Guan Yu sighed, Lu Bu is a jackal after all.
If such people stay in Xuzhou, it will be a disaster for Xuzhou sooner or later.
But Guan Yu also knew that Lu Bu would be a good help to Liu Bei this time.
Without Lu Bu's influence in Pengcheng and Xiapi City, it would be difficult for them alone to resist Cao's army.
With Lu Bu around, Cao Cao would naturally have to be more careful.
"Brother, if you ask me, I'd better kill him!"
"I have heard that the reason why Lu Bu ran from Yanzhou to Xuzhou was because he had never beaten Na Xiyu!"
"He is just a lost dog. I don't know why Tao Qian accepted such a person at that time!"
Zhang Fei was a little disdainful. Now, Cao Cao had already spread the news that Lu Bu was defeated and fled by Xi Yu.
Although Lu Bu was a little resentful about this, he did not refute it at all.
Liu Bei sighed.
"When Tao Gong accepted Lu Bu, he also thought that this person would be beneficial to Xuzhou!"
"Now Lu Bu is already entrenched in Xuzhou, how can I drive him out of the country?"
Lu Bu was admitted by Tao Qian. Although he couldn't stand Lu Bu at the moment, Liu Bei still planned to tolerate it.
He was thinking this, but Lu Bu, who was in Pengcheng, didn't notice it at all.
"Then Liu Xuande is actually a gentleman!"
After contacting Liu Bei, Lu Bu's impression of Liu Bei was pretty good.
On that day, Liu Bei wanted to entrust the Xuzhou seal to him.
To be honest, Lu Bu was really moved.
If he didn't have many troops behind him at that time, and he was afraid of Guan Zhang and others, Lu Bu would definitely take over the seal of Xuzhou.
"Your Majesty, I see that Zhang Fei and others are very unkind to us. Your Majesty, you should make plans in advance!"
At this moment, Hou Cheng, who was standing next to him, said something casually to Lu Bu.
Upon hearing this, Lu Bu immediately opened his mouth and sneered.
"Humph, Zhang Fei has nothing to worry about!"
Before the Hulao Pass, Lu Bu had fought against Zhang Fei, and Lu Bu still knew the opponent's strength.
The opponent was no match for him back then, and it's not much different now.
Lu Bu didn't take Liu Bei's three brothers seriously.
Now his life in Pengcheng is much better than before when he was living under someone else's roof.
The land of Xuzhou is not bad. Although Cao Jun is eyeing it from outside, Lu Bu doesn't care at all now.
Anyway, he is not Xuzhou Mu now.
…
It's night, in Xiapi City.
Zhang Fei wanted to kill Lu Bu with all his heart, but with Liu Bei's advice, Zhang Fei could only hold in his anger.
After coming out of the camp, Zhang Fei wanted to find a place to drink as usual.
At this moment, he saw Cao Bao coming towards him.
"General Cao, move slowly!"
When he saw Cao Bao, Zhang Fei was not polite at all, as if he wanted to treat him as one of his own, he stretched out his hand and pulled Cao Bao towards the other side.
Cao Bao was a little surprised.
At this time, he was planning to ask Liu Bei to report on today's camp patrol.
But since Zhang Fei pulled him, Cao Bao didn't refuse at all.
The two walked side by side.
Zhang Fei took care of himself and hugged Cao Bao, and the two of them arrived at the gate of Xiapi City without much incident.
When the defenders on the city saw that Zhang Fei had arrived, they seemed to be used to it. They bowed to the two men and ignored them.
During this time, Zhang Fei continued to drag Cao Bao into the gatehouse below the city.
Cao Bao was still a little confused. He didn't know what Zhang Fei wanted to do by pulling him.
He didn't speak.
Now Liu Bei is the lord of Xuzhou, and he followed Tao Qian's orders and followed Liu Bei, and he didn't have much opinion about Zhang Fei.
Guan and Zhang are both Liu Bei's sworn brothers, and making friends with Zhang Fei means making friends with Liu Bei.
Cao Bao didn't speak, but watched Zhang Fei take out two large wine jars from the corner of the concierge.
"General Cao, let's have a drink together?"
Zhang Fei grinned and smiled at Cao Bao.
At the moment, he was sulking about Lu Bu. He originally planned to drink alone, but since he met Cao Bao, he planned to drag him along.
However, when Cao Bao saw this scene, he frowned subconsciously.
"General Zhang, your envoy has already issued an order. Now we must beware of Cao's army. No drinking is allowed in the army!"
Cao Bao looked serious. Seeing Zhang Fei turning a blind eye to the military order, he subconsciously wanted to persuade him.
However, when Zhang Fei heard this, he subconsciously waved his hand secretly.
"Hey, if you don't tell us, who would know if we drank secretly?"
Zhang Fei felt that nothing was wrong. He had secretly drank alcohol once or twice. The wine in the city gate concierge was what he had hidden before.
Now he kindly asked Cao Bao to drink together, but who knew that the other party was not happy.
Seeing Zhang Fei looking at him, Cao Bao's face turned dark.
"General Zhang, leopards don't like wine. If the general wants to drink, just drink it yourself!"
Cao Bao had no intention of drinking with Zhang Fei. He knew in his heart that relying on the relationship between Zhang Fei and Liu Bei.
Even if the other party broke military discipline, it was nothing.
Could Liu Bei really punish his brother for such a trivial matter?
Cao Bao thought to himself, if Zhang Fei wants to drink it, just drink it himself. He can't drink it.
Who knew that these words seemed to offend Zhang Fei.
At this moment, Zhang Fei's eyes were staring.
"You man, what do you mean?"
"Why don't you drink? I treat you to a drink, and you look down on me?"
Zhang Fei's expression changed. Seeing this scene, Cao Bao was a little frightened for some reason.
The Zhang Feibang in front of him was tall and round, and his voice sounded like thunder when he shouted.
The sound of that sound in the ear made one's heart tremble uncontrollably.
Cao Bao was helpless and couldn't help but lower his tone: "I hope the general knows that Bao Bao is the Heavenly Ring. This is not unwillingness, but actually unkind!"
"drink!"
Zhang Fei ignored Cao Bao's explanation and helped the other party to pour a cup, staring directly at Cao Bao.
Under such circumstances, Cao Bao could only grit his teeth and raise the wine cup in front of him.
After drinking one cup, Cao Bao's face became a little ugly.
He has been unable to drink since he was born. If it weren't for the relationship between Zhang Fei and Liu Bei, he would have fallen under Liu Bei this time.
There was absolutely no way he could drink.
However, after drinking this glass of wine, Zhang Fei seemed unwilling to let him go.
"Isn't this drinkable?"
"Drink more!"
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Fei ordered the generals on board to help pour wine for Cao Bao.
Cao Bao's face was ugly, and he knew at this moment that it would not work if he continued like this.
"Drinking in the army is a violation of the general's order. The general must not do it again this time!"
Cao Bao brought out the military order, but Zhang Fei in front of him seemed to be drunk.
He was already angry in his stomach, but when he heard Cao Bao being so disrespectful in front of him, he felt like he was going to explode in an instant.
"You tell me military orders, and I will give you military orders. If you don't obey when I order you to drink, you deserve to fight a hundred times!"
"Left and right, get it for me!"
Zhang Fei was furious, and as he spoke the order, Cao Bao in front of him was stunned.
Until he was pressed under the city gate by the sergeants. Seeing Zhang Fei take the initiative to lift the stick, his entire face became ferocious.
"Zhang Yide, are you deliberately humiliating me?"
Cao Bao was trembling with anger, but at this moment Zhang Fei seemed to be unable to hear at all.
As the stick fell from his hand, Cao Bao's whole mood began to change.
After Cao Bao wailed and passed out, Zhang Fei felt bored and returned to the military camp.
In time, Cao Bao's subordinates took the initiative to help their general back to the camp.
In the middle of the night, Cao Bao woke up with severe pain all over his body.
The young general who was originally under Cao Bao couldn't help but sound sad and angry.
"General, Thief Zhang has insulted the general too much. Why should the general suffer!"
"Well, Zhang Fei and Liu Bei are sworn brothers. How can the general avenge this humiliation?"
It was a bit unworthy of the general to replace Cao Bao, and Cao Bao's face was also a little ugly as he was lying on the bed.
He followed Tao Qian's orders and chose to follow Liu Bei, never expecting that he would be in such trouble today.
I have been working hard these days, but just because I don't want to drink with Zhang Fei, I have to come here to fight. Why?
"What should I do?"
Cao Bao said silently to himself!
Now that Tao Gong is dead, the situation in Xuzhou is no longer what it was before.
At this moment, what solution can he have?
"General, how can you bear this humiliation?"
"I think if the general doesn't vote for Lu Bu, forget it!"
The neighboring primary school said angrily.
As soon as he said these words, Cao Bao's eyes lit up.
He almost forgot Lu Bu!
Yes, since Zhang Fei insulted him and Liu Bei was his brother, he had no other choice.
Lu Bu is a person who has been famous for a long time and can be regarded as a great general in the world!
It is better to seek refuge with the other party than to continue to be humiliated at the hands of the Liu Bei brothers.
…
Liu Bei finally found out about Zhang Fei's whipping of Cao Bao, and he originally planned to go to Cao Bao in person to apologize.
However, it was too late.
Although Cao Bao didn't say much on the surface, three days later, when the gates of Xiapi City were opened, Cao Bao led his Danyang soldiers straight to Pengcheng.
Cao Bao turned around and surrendered to Lu Bu!
When this news came over, Liu Bei's entire face turned black!
"Third brother, you have caused a big disaster this time!"
Liu Bei was full of resentment towards Zhang Fei, but the person in front of him was his sworn brother after all.
Under those shouts of "big brother", even though Liu Bei felt uncomfortable in his heart, he could only break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.
He can't chop off Zhang Fei's head because of this, right?
Cao Bao's rebellion was a foregone conclusion. The other party only chose Lu Bu and did not defect from Xuzhou.
Not even Liu Bei could say anything about this.
Even more so, this fault still has to be placed on his head.
It was just Cao Bao's rebellion that ultimately changed the situation in Xuzhou.
Originally, most of Liu Bei's soldiers were Danyang soldiers. He only had the 3,000 soldiers he brought from outside Xuzhou, and including Tian Kai's men, they only had 7,8,000.
With the existence of Danyang soldiers, he was not afraid of Lu Bu at all.
But now, Xuzhou Danyang soldiers followed Cao Bao and defected to Lu Bu.
Although there are still many left behind, compared with the two, Lu Bu's total number of troops at this time is already tens of thousands.
"What a disaster!"
Liu Bei was a little helpless.
Sure enough, after Cao Bao surrendered to Lu Bu, Lu Bu in Pengcheng began to swell.
The other party began to ignore Liu Bei at all.
Xuzhou Mu's position seems to have fallen on Lu Bu's head in disguise.
And those Xuzhou nobles who had been watching from both sides now began to advocate Lu Bu.
He looked ready to welcome Lu Bu as the shepherd of Xuzhou.
Inside the Xiapi Yamen Office.
Liu Guanzhang, Mi Zhu, Sun Qian and others sat around.
Liu Bei looked sad, but Mi Zhu and others couldn't help but look at Zhang Fei.
Even Mi Zhu and Sun Qian didn't expect it.
How could something like this happen at this time?
Is Cao Bao wrong?
There’s nothing wrong with that!
If Zhang Fei hadn't been drunk and deliberately whipped the opponent, how could Cao Bao have turned around and joined Lu Bu?
In the current situation, Lu Bu has begun to grow in Xuzhou, and Liu Bei has declined.
If this continues, the successor Xuzhou Mu will definitely not live up to his name.
Soon, I'm afraid the whole of Xuzhou will change its owner.
Zhang Fei already knew that he had made a big mistake.
At this moment, in front of a group of counselors, he was willing to be punished.
"Brother, everyone, this is my fault, and I am willing to be punished!"
Liu Bei clenched his fist. How could he be punished in this situation? What's more, even if he was punished, what would be the use!
Can Zhang Fei be punished?
Can be punished!
But even so, the fact has happened and the result is difficult to change.
Liu Bei was a little helpless, but Guan Yu next to him didn't open his mouth to intercede!
At this time, Mi Zhu was the first to speak.
"My lord, at this time, since General Zhang has realized his mistake, he should be allowed to make meritorious service at this time!"
"My lord, what Zizhong said is true. Lu Bu is powerful. At this moment, we still need to rely on General Zhang!"
Sun Qian also spoke.
As the two men took the lead in interceding, Guan Yu also looked at his eldest brother.
"Brother, my third brother has already made a mistake. Why don't you remember it first? It won't be too late to punish Lu Bu after the problem is solved!"
After everyone interceded, Liu Bei also got off the donkey.
He glared fiercely at Zhang Fei, and his attitude was extremely good.
Immediately afterwards, he looked embarrassed again.
"Now, what should I do?"
As Cao Bao surrendered to Lu Bu, Danyang soldiers also rebelled.
Now Liu Bei is in a situation where there are some signs of losing power.
I originally planned to rely on Lu Bu to deal with Cao Cao, but now it turns out that I can't even deal with Lu Bu.
This time Lu Bu already had the desire to march into Xiapi.
The other party's posture clearly meant that they wanted to follow Cao Bao and others' surrender and annex Xia Pi and Tan City in one go.
"My lord, with the current situation of our army, it is difficult for us to resist Lu Bu!"
Sun Qian couldn't help but said casually.
Immediately afterwards, he remembered his previous advice.
Drive away the wolf and devour the tiger!
Now Lu Bu, the tiger, has become more majestic than before!
"Why!"
Liu Bei was a little helpless, driving away the wolf and devouring the tiger?
In the end, is it driving the wolf to devour the tiger, or is it driving the tiger to devour the wolf?
Cao Cao is even worse than Lu Bu!
However, now that there is no other choice, he can still rely on Cao Cao.
Relying on the previous correspondence with Cao Cao, and the friendship between the two at that time.
Giving in means nothing.
It's just that I've just been in Xuzhou Mu's position, my butt has not yet warmed up, and it looks like I'm going to give up again.
What the future will look like.
Liu Bei felt a little confused.
At this moment, everyone including Mi Zhu and others were looking at him.
Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief. Although he might have lost Xuzhou after choosing Cao Cao, Xuzhou was gone.
Compared to before, he had more subordinates who could follow him all the time. It was much better than before when the three brothers traveled together.
All in all, it was quite effective.
That’s it!
When he first supported Xuzhou, he did not expect that there would be so many variables. Xuzhou's gains and losses were all determined by fate!
Liu Bei still decided in his heart that he had no other choice this time.
The only choice was to cooperate with Cao Cao.
At that time, the Xiapi Yamen Office was gloomy.
Inside the Pengcheng Yamen Office, the atmosphere was completely different.
With Cao Bao coming to surrender, Lu Bu felt as if he had taken a sip of sweet spring wine in the dog days of summer, feeling indescribably comfortable.
"Your Majesty is a great figure in the world, and I have long wanted to serve you!"
Cao Bao spoke sincerely and his tone was sincere.
Lu Bu didn't think it was fake, and happily pulled Cao Bao and scolded Zhang Fei together.
"When I heard about the general, I felt extremely angry."
"How dare Zhang Fei insult the general like this?"
"The general is conscientious and conscientious, and there is nothing wrong in what he does. He just doesn't want to drink with that Zhang Fei, so he gets this humiliation. It's really disgusting!"
Lu Bu opened his mouth and spoke out on behalf of Cao Bao.
Cao Bao didn't have much emotion.
He has no other choice now. Liu Bei can't stay there any longer, and it's impossible for him to join Cao Cao. Lu Bu has only one option.
Fortunately, Lu Bu was treating him well at the moment and didn't show any slights to him!
"What you said is true. How can a man be humiliated for no reason?"
"General, please rest assured, Bu will seek justice for the general!"
