Lu Bu's strongest strategy

Chapter 150 Tricks
"Ha ha!"

A soldier looked up to the sky and laughed, "Little girl, not bad!"

"Haha, come on!"

Seeing these soldiers being so rude, Zhao Yun's expression darkened, "Who are you?"

A soldier sneered, "We are Cao Gong's subordinates, I think you seem to be working hard, if you are sensible, please go with us obediently, otherwise, hehe!"

A soldier laughed loudly, "Little girl, you are a secret worker, hurry up and leave with us."

Zhao Yuqi's face was flushed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You are hateful."

"Of course it's hateful."

A soldier of the Cao army rode over while talking, bent over, and wanted to reach out to catch Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu was ashamed and angry. Taking advantage of Cao Jun's soldiers bending over, he reached out and grabbed the knife on the horse's back, and chopped it down without saying a word.

"Oops!" With a sound, Cao Jun's soldier was cut straight, and fell off his horse screaming.

The expressions of the other Cao soldiers changed, and they hurriedly took out the weapons on their horses, and slashed at Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun is best at long spears, but the long spears are too long and inconvenient to carry on the road, so he can only bring a knife for self-defense.

It's just that although Zhao Yun only has a knife, how can a few Cao soldiers be put in his eyes.

Seeing Cao Jun's soldiers rushing over, Zhao Yun snorted coldly, stretched out his hand and pulled out the knife on the horse's back, and roared.

"Go away!"

There was a flash of white light, and after a few metal impacts, the four people were cut with knives, and Zhao Yun stopped them aside.

A Cao soldier's face changed, and he roared, "Brothers, they are really meticulous, take them down quickly."

Seeing the four people rushing over again, Zhao Yun was furious. He had already kept his hands back just now, thinking that they were more than dead.

"hateful!"

Zhao Yun roared, took a step forward, cut down a soldier of Cao Jun with a single blow, and then jumped onto the horse's back with all his strength, and killed several people.

"what!"

How could a few ordinary Cao soldiers be Zhao Yun's opponents? After a few rounds, all four Cao soldiers were killed.

Zhao Yu blushed, "Brother, these people are too hateful."

Zhao Yun put the knife away with a solemn face, and said in a low voice, "Maybe there are a large number of them here, let's leave as soon as possible."

Zhao Yu tentatively asked, "Brother, why don't we go back to Yanzhou, Xuzhou is too chaotic."

Zhao Yun hesitated for a moment and shook his head, "Let's go to Xiapi now."

……

Xiapi.

Liu Bei looked solemn, looked at Jian Yong in front of him, and asked slowly, "I see clearly, Lu You really left Xiapi."

Jian Yong nodded, "It's true, I did leave Xiapi and head towards Xiaopei."

Liu Bei slapped the case with his palm, and growled, "Cao Bao, I have treated you well, it is really hateful that you dare to treat me like this."

Jian Yong cupped his hands and said, "Liu Shijun, now is not the time to get angry. You should think about how to deal with it, right?"

Mi Zhu, who stood by the side without speaking, suddenly said, "Since Lu You has left, it means that Cao Bao and others are likely to do something. We only need to monitor their actions to know what they want to do." , then we can design an ambush and defeat Cao Mengde in one fell swoop."

Sun Qian suddenly said, "Mr. Liu, just to be on the safe side, why don't you send someone to Cao Bao's mansion, and you can know more details."

Liu Bei nodded, "Okay, find someone to handle this matter as soon as possible. Don't make any mistakes."

Mi Zhu sneered, "Liu Shijun, you don't need to worry, Cao Bao wants to join Cao Mengde, but don't forget, his soldiers are running out, so even if he wants to join Cao Mengde, how useful will it be? "

Jian Yong shook his head and said, "Mi Biejia, don't underestimate Cao Bao. Although he doesn't have many soldiers and horses under his command now, it is enough to be able to open the city gate for Cao Mengde at the critical moment."

Hearing what everyone said, Liu Bei was about to speak when suddenly there were hurried footsteps outside the door.

"Informing Lord Liu, there is an envoy coming from Xiaopei."

Hearing the voice outside the door, Liu Bei couldn't help being taken aback, and then said loudly, "Let him in."

Soon, Xiaopei's envoy, led by the soldiers, came to the hall.

Liu Bei saw that this man's hair was somewhat gray, his eyes were sharp, and his face was resolute. What caught his attention the most was that one of his arms hung limply to the side, looking extremely uncoordinated. It seemed that he must be disabled.

When the visitors saw Liu Bei, they bowed to salute.

"Cheng Yu met Liu Shijun."

"Cheng Yu?"

Liu Bei was taken aback for a moment, but then he came to his senses and waved his hands hastily, "So it's Mr. Zhongde, so there's no need to be polite."

Although he had not met Cheng Yu, he had heard of the name and knew that Cheng Yu was one of Cao Cao's important advisers and was known to be intelligent.

Mi Zhu arched his hands and asked tentatively, "Mr. Zhongde, what's the purpose of this?"

Cheng Yu turned his head to look at Liu Bei, and said slowly, "Liu Shijun, do you know that a catastrophe is imminent?"

Everyone in the room was shocked when they heard these words.

Liu Bei's expression changed, "Mr. Zhongde, what do you say?"

Cheng Yu said slowly, "Liu Shijun, when Tao Shijun occupied Xuzhou, Huainan Yuan Gonglu wanted to plot Xuzhou, but because of Tao Shijun's reputation, he didn't do it for a long time."

At this point, Cheng Yu paused and then said, "But now Tao Shijun is gone, and Liu Shijun has occupied Xuzhou. If my prediction is correct, it won't be long before Yuan Jiujiu takes action and plots against Xuzhou." .

Although Liu Shijun has strong soldiers and horses, compared with Huainan's soldiers and horses, they are probably far inferior! "

Hearing this, Liu Bei was surprised, and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Zhongde, did you get any news?"

Cheng Yu nodded, "My lord has many friends in Huainan, but they wrote to my lord, saying that Yuan Gonglu wanted to plot against Xuzhou."

Hearing this, Mi Zhu suddenly sneered, "I'm afraid Cao Gong's friend told him to let Cao Gong plot Xuzhou while Huainan is sending troops?"

Mi Zhu's words were sarcasmous, and Cheng Yu nodded calmly as if he hadn't heard of it, "Mi Biejia is right, and indeed he has this plan."

Mi Zhu's complexion changed, and he roared, "How dare you plot against Xuzhou. Don't you forget that when you were in trouble, it was Liu Shijun who took you in, and now you dare to be ungrateful? It's really useless."

Liu Bei's expression was also not good. After all, if others said that they wanted to plot their own territory in front of him, no one would feel good.

Zhang Fei was so angry that he couldn't hold it back anymore. He took a step forward, grabbed Cheng Yu, and yelled, "You ungrateful villain, I, Old Zhang, will deal with you first today."

Zhang Fei's hand was so strong that he grabbed Cheng Yu and lifted him up from the ground.

Cheng Yu was not afraid at all, still smiling all over his face, and turned to look at Liu Bei, "Liu Shijun, is this how you treat guests?"

Mi Zhu sneered, "Mr. Zhongde, now that we have finished talking, do you still think that you are still our guest?"

Zhang Fei snorted heavily, "It's not a friend now, it's an enemy."

Cheng Yu didn't speak, just looked at Liu Bei with a sneer.

Liu Bei gritted his teeth and yelled at Zhang Fei, "Yide, put down Mr. Zhongde quickly, don't be unreasonable."

Zhang Fei was a little unconvinced, "Brother, he came to plot against Xuzhou, why are you being so polite to him, why don't you let him go."

Liu Bei's face darkened, "Yide, step back quickly, don't be rude."

Seeing Liu Bei getting angry, Zhang Fei reluctantly let Cheng Yu go, and retreated to the side muttering.

Liu Bei looked at Cheng Yu with burning eyes, and said slowly, "Mr. Zhongde, you can go back now and tell Cao Mengde that I already know what he wants."

When Cheng Yu saw that Liu Bei actually wanted to let him go, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he cupped his hands and said with a smile.

"Liu Shijun, just now I just described the process of this incident, now, I will explain my lord's intentions."

Speaking of this, Cheng Yu bowed to Liu Bei again, "When my lord was in trouble, Liu Shijun ignored the past and took our army in Xiaopei. My lord always thinks of Liu Shijun's benevolence and righteousness, so how can he plot against you?" What about Liu Shijun's Xuzhou?

Therefore, my lord has decided not only not to plot Xuzhou, but also to help Liu Shijun to resist Yuan Shao's attack in Huainan. "

Hearing this, Liu Bei couldn't believe his ears, and asked in surprise, "Mr. Zhongde, is what you said true?"

Cheng Yu nodded, "It's absolutely true, there is absolutely no falsehood."

Zhang Fei scratched his head, "Are you really so kind and want to help us?"

Cheng Yu sighed, "If someone else occupies Xuzhou, my lord will take the opportunity without hesitation, but Mr. Liu is so benevolent and righteous that my lord can't bear to do it. In order to repay Mr. Liu, he decided to send troops to help .”

Hearing this, Jian Yong suddenly sneered, "Mr. Zhongde, I'm afraid Mr. Cao wants to help us, and it's not just that simple, right?"

Cheng Yu's complexion changed, and he waved his hands hastily, "Mr. Xianhe, don't you suspect that my lord really wants to help Liu Shijun?"

Jian Yong shook his head, and said slowly, "Perhaps, Mr. Cao really wanted to help Liu Shijun, but if what I expected was correct, on the one hand, he was helping, and on the other hand, he was also worried about Yuan Gonglu's treatment of your family. Is the lord bad?"

After hearing Jian Yong's words, everyone reacted.

In the battle of Kuangting that year, Yuan Gonglu was defeated by Cao Mengde and fled in a hurry for 600 miles, only to escape the annihilation of the entire army, which can be described as extremely miserable.

Yuan Gonggong was arrogant and arrogant, how could he bear this anger? Yes, he will definitely avenge this revenge.

If Cao Mengde now occupies Yanzhou and is powerful, Yuan Gonglu might not dare to make a move, but now that Cao Mengde has been defeated by Lu Fengxian, his strength is not as good as before.

Therefore, no matter whether Yuan Gonglu will plan Xuzhou or not, he will not let Cao Mengde go.

After everyone wanted to hear this truth, they felt at ease with Cheng Yu's words.

Since Cao Mengde is saving himself, it is very likely that this matter is true.

Now Cao Mengde is not Yuan Gonglu's opponent, so he can only unite with Liu Bei to jointly resist Yuan Gonglu's attack, which is also the best way.

Liu Bei thought about this clearly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Mr. Zhongde, since Mr. Cao wants to unite with Xuzhou, in order to resist Yuan Gonglu, how can I not agree?"

Speaking of this, Liu Bei paused, and said loudly, "Mr. Zhongde, you go back and tell Cao Gong, and just say that I agree to this matter."

Cheng Yu was overjoyed immediately, and said with a smile, "It's really a blessing for the two families that Liu Shijun thinks this way. If not, I'm afraid Yuan Gonglu must have defeated them one by one."

Speaking of this, Cheng Yu bowed, "Since Mr. Liu has agreed, I will go back and report this matter to my lord so that we can discuss countermeasures."

Liu Bei nodded, "Alright, it's not too late."

When Cheng Yu's back disappeared outside the door, Liu Bei turned his head to look at Mi Zhu, frowned and asked, "Farewell Mi, what Mr. Zhong De said, do you think it is true?"

Mi Zhu frowned, "Although I dare not say it is true, it is indeed very possible.

Yuan Gonglu had been plotting against Xuzhou for a long time, maybe he really wanted to take this opportunity to send troops. "

Jian Yong stepped forward, clasped his hands and asked, "Liu Shijun, do you really want to unite with Cao Mengde?"

Hearing this, Liu Bei smiled wryly and said, "Xianhe, if Yuan Gonggong really brings troops to Xuzhou, if he wants to stop his attack, he may have to join forces with Cao Mengde."

Sun Qian frowned, and said slowly, "Liu Shijun, if we really join forces with Cao Mengde, what will Prime Minister Cao do?"

Hearing this, Liu Bei frowned immediately.

Jian Yong clapped his hands, "Oops, I forgot about this thing?"

Mi Zhu suddenly said, "Now that Lu You has just left, Cao Mengde must have sent someone to join forces before arriving at Xiaopei. Do you think these two things are not related?"

Liu Bei nodded, "Hurry up and send someone to Huainan to inquire in detail and see if Yuan Gonglu wants to attack Xuzhou. It's not too late to make plans."

……

The spies who set off from Xuzhou rode fast horses and rushed towards Huainan.

Three days later, in Liu Bei's expectation, the spies returned from Huainan, bringing the latest news from there.

"I report to Ambassador Liu that the soldiers and horses in Huainan are indeed gathering, and it seems that they are going to send troops."

Hearing the news from the spies, Liu Bei's expression changed, "Are they really going to Xuzhou?"

The spy shook his head, "I don't know."

After the spy reported the news, he then revealed another piece of news that surprised Liu Bei.

"When my subordinate was about to leave Huainan, I happened to know another piece of news."

Liu Bei hurriedly asked, "What news?"

The spies cupped their hands, "When my subordinates left Huainan, they encountered a group of soldiers, who seemed to be missions, coming towards Xuzhou."

"Embassy?"

Liu Bei looked at the spies suspiciously, "Did you see clearly?"

"Absolutely. They have the banner of a mission in their ranks, and their actions are scattered and there are not many people. They are definitely not marching to fight a war. Therefore, my subordinates judge that they should be the mission to Xuzhou."

Liu Bei was even more puzzled, he didn't understand, since Yuan Gonglu was going to send troops to attack Xuzhou, why did he send a mission? Could it be that there was some trick in it?
