Chapter 87 Liu Bei's True Face

The old man had some thoughts in his heart, so he didn't have the intention to continue the greetings with Liu Bei. After saying a few words casually, he wanted to take people away, leaving only the three brothers Liu Bei in the room.

"Huh... I'm exhausted." Seeing that everyone had finished walking, Zhang Fei pulled up a chair and sat down.

"You're tired now? Then what do you do when you go to the battlefield?" Liu Bei also sat down, took a cup of tea that no one had touched before, took a sip, and said calmly.

"Can it be the same?" Zhang Fei stared bullishly, waved his hands and complained, "If I was asked to fight for [-] rounds, I wouldn't even bat an eyelid, but I really can't bear to serve these old men."

"Where is this? I just asked you to serve tea and water, and I haven't asked you to sit on anything else." Liu Bei laughed.

"Anything else? I won't do it, I won't do it." Zhang Fei repeatedly shook his head and waved his hands.

"You." Liu Bei smiled helplessly, then looked at Guan Yu who was on the side, and asked:
"Yun Chang should be able to see my intention."

"Know a thing or two." Guan Yu put down his long knife, stroked his long hair, and asked tentatively, "Could it be that elder brother wants to rely on the strength of these people to make Cao Cao compromise? So as to stay in Xuzhou?"

"That's right, that's it." Liu Bei smiled.

He stood up, stood at the window, and said leisurely: "Xuzhou is a good place. It has a vast territory, a large number of people, rich soldiers, and the people are brave and aggressive. Once we truly control this place, we will no longer be meat on the chopping board. People slaughtered."

Liu Bei paused, and then said: "Besides, we just took back our own place, Xuzhou, which was handed over to me by Mr. Tao Shijun, and was shamelessly stolen by Lu Fengxian, and then taken by Cao Cao. This time, we will take it back." I want to take back my own territory.”

Liu Bei waved his hand and clenched his fist, his eyes full of confidence.

"But brother, is this really possible? Just rely on some ordinary people to tell Cao Cao, and he will agree?" Zhang Fei questioned.

"Wrong, that's not ordinary people, it's public opinion, it's boiling public opinion!" Liu Bei turned around sharply with firm eyes.

"If Cao Cao disobeys the public opinion, then he will not win the support of the people. The most important thing in a place is the support of the people. If he cannot win the support of the people, he will not be able to truly occupy this place and let the people here fight for him.

In this way, Xuzhou is only superficially occupied by him, but in fact he has no control at all.

If he doesn't want to give up Xuzhou, he has to obey the public opinion and let me be the state shepherd.

It was a simple strategy, but it left Cao Cao helpless. "

That is to say, Liu Bei didn't know that Cao Cao had discussed the countermeasures with Xun Yu, so he said this.

Otherwise, just wait for a slap in the face.

But he only said to the two sworn brothers that it doesn't matter even if they are slapped in the face, brother, don't care about these.

"Then according to what the elder brother said, is your state shepherd's position confirmed?" Zhang Fei listened for a long time, but he only understood Cao Cao's words that if he didn't want to give up Xuzhou, he had to make Liu Bei the state shepherd. road.

Not only him, Guan Yu also looked at Liu Bei curiously.

If it was true what Liu Bei said, then it would be too easy for him to be the state shepherd.

"No, of course not. This strategy is so simple. Of course there are not only one or two methods." Liu Bei shook his head slightly and said: "Let me be the state shepherd is one method, and it is also a more peaceful method. The other method is not So peaceful."

"What is it?" Zhang Fei asked curiously, scratching his ears and cheeks.

"Kill!" Liu Bei spit out a word, and the flat tone made people feel cruel.

"kill……?"

"That's right, it's killing. If he doesn't want to compromise, he has to kill."

"Is it enough to kill all the people who speak to him?" Guan Yu said.

"No, it's more than that." Liu Bei's tone seemed to be full of blood: "Kill, kill, kill, kill more people, the heads of the people who were killed are rolling, and the people who are killed dare not look up.

Kill all those who disobey him, and the remaining people will naturally obey his orders, and no one will refute him.

So there will be no advice to him, in a sense 'coercion' him to do it. "

Liu Bei didn't actually say it completely.

Even if Cao Cao killed those people, he wouldn't kill Xuzhou. He would kill a small city, but he would never dare to kill such a big city.

As long as the killing is not finished and there are still people alive, then Cao Cao's atrocities will be passed on, and within a few years, the people of the entire Xuzhou will hate Cao Cao.

At that time, if he has decent influence, he can easily take Xuzhou under his command.

"That would kill a lot of people, Cao Cao probably wouldn't do that," Zhang Fei said dryly.

"Others don't know, you and my brother don't know? It's not that Cao Cao has never slaughtered a city. Someone will always remember the few small cities he slaughtered." Liu Bei said lightly, as if feeling a little cold in his tone, and added :
"Of course, if he kills a few thousand people at most, he won't do anything. What he wants is deterrence, deterring other thoughtful people."

It also deters me, Liu Bei said in his heart.

The scene Liu Bei depicted was cruel, ruthless, and indifferent, which even made Zhang Fei, who had experienced many battles, shudder.

He, Zhang Yide, killed people like hemp, and he didn't even take human life seriously, but the people he killed were either on the battlefield, people who were on their own side, or the big treacherous and evil people, but he had never killed innocent people people.

But according to Liu Bei's description, Cao Cao may kill thousands of innocent civilians because they said something Cao Cao didn't like to hear in front of Cao Cao, or because they wanted to influence Cao Cao's thoughts.

But in any case, these reasons are not the reason for their death!
"Brother, how about... let's go find those old men, so they might not die." Zhang Fei seemed to have thought of something, and said hastily.

In his heart, the eldest brother has always loved the people and regarded the people as his own, so he would definitely not put the people's lives in danger and ignore them.

As long as they go find those old men now and tell them not to find someone to do these things, then they won't be in danger of dying.

And his elder brother Liu Bei must have thought so too.

"Silly Third Brother, what did you say?"

To Zhang Fei's surprise, Liu Bei did not take his opinion, but said coldly.

It seems that the mood is not very good.

In fact, Liu Bei's mood was not very good.

When he explained to Guan and Zhang just now, he thought of the gap between himself and Cao Cao.

Cao Cao has hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, countless generals and advisors, his territory spans several states, and the emperor is at his side, with infinite scenery.

However, he only has a few hundred soldiers and horses, which can't even compare with Cao Cao's weakest general Zhonglang. The generals only have two younger brothers. As for the territory... there is no place.
