Chapter 82

After defeating Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao returned to Xuchang overnight.

Rumors abounded in Xuchang City.

Xun Yu had already found out that Huang Kui, the servant of the door, secretly colluded with Ma Teng and wanted to kidnap the emperor!

However, Ma Teng was so resourceful and fearful of Cao Cao's cunning that he did not dare to send his troops into Xuchang.

Now that Cao Cao returned, Huang Kui knew that his life was in danger and stayed up all night. He entered the palace early in the morning and confided to Liu Xie, who was only 17 years old.

However, Liu Xie was powerless and had no real power in his hands, so he was unable to rescue him, so he allowed Xu Chu to lead the Huben camp to arrest him.

After interrogation, Huang Kui confessed to many people, and the number of people implicated this time is more than [-] officials.

But for some reason, Dong Cheng and Fu Wan were not in the ranks.

In one day, more than [-] officials were executed, and people in Xuchang were panicked.

Cao Cao personally entered the palace and met Liu Xie.

After a while, Cao Cao left with the edict.

Although I don't know what Cao Cao and Liu Xie were talking about, but that afternoon, Cao Cao issued an imperial edict in the name of Liu Xie.

Talented people from all over the world are welcome to enter Xuchang to display their talents.

……

Knowing Huang Kui's death, Ma Teng retreated overnight.

Cao Ren also defeated Han Da Sima Zhang Yang who was trying to go south.

The crisis in Xuchang seems to have been resolved, but Cao Cao's real crisis has just begun to emerge.

Yuan Shao is about to defeat Gongsun Zan and rule the north!
If Gongsun Zan is defeated, Yuan Shao will be able to dominate the north, with thirteen prefectures in the world, and Yuan Shao will monopolize four of them!

Jizhou, Qingzhou, Youzhou, and Bingzhou!
In the future, Yuan Shao will surely become one of Cao Cao's great troubles.

Blessings never come singly, misfortunes never come singly!
Cao Cao also learned that Lu Bu took Zhao Yun as the vanguard, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei as the deputy general, and Gao Shun as the commander. They led [-] elite troops to attack Jingzhou and avenge Gongsun.

Revenge is just a cover, in troubled times, other people's lives don't matter at all!
What matters is only the city, the territory, and the people...

He also learned that the envoy sent across the river was tortured by Sun Ce in a wok, and he was furious.

"Lu Bu, Sun Ce, Zhang Xiu, Zhang Yang, Ma Teng, Yuan Shao... I, Cao Mengde, will kill all of you one day!"

After yelling, Cao Cao had a head attack and fell into a coma for three days.

……

Liu Biao sent an envoy, Yiji, to knock on the gate of Shouchun City.

Lu Bu didn't make much preparations to meet the envoy.

He led Ren Yun, Lu Lingqi, Lu Su, Wei Yue and more than ten people to receive him.

When Yiji met him, seeing Lu Bu's heroic posture for the first time, his heart trembled in shock.

"I'm in Yiji, I've met Wen Hou!"

"Uncle Ji came to Shouchun, what do you mean?" Lu Bu looked cold and stared like an eagle.

【puff!Don't laugh, don't laugh!I'm pure, I can't laugh, it's not serious when I laugh! 】

"Huh?" Lu Bu frowned slightly, looking confused, looking at Ren Yun out of the corner of his eye!
Ren Yun looked calm, as if nothing had happened.

When a scholar meets a soldier, there is no reason to explain it!

A scholar from Yiji, although he has seen some generals who are good at fighting, but Lu Bu's bravery is invincible, which is not comparable to any general!
He was trembling when he saw Lu Bu, but when he saw Lu Bu frown slightly, he was even more scared out of his wits.

"Please don't be angry, Marquis Wen! My lord Liu Biao learned that General Gongsun was killed and regretted it so much that he hoped to turn the conflict with Marquis Wen into friendship!"

【Tsk tsk, no, Yiji, Yiji, do you think you can stop Lu Bu from attacking Jingzhou with just a few words? 】

[In today's troubled times, the group of heroes is brilliant, you Uncle Yiji can at most be considered a third-rate strategist!A third-rate strategist just wants to fight with other heroes?Stop Lu Bu from taking Jingzhou?How funny? 】

【If Lu Bu listens to your slander and stops attacking Jingzhou, it means that Lu Bu is a big fool! 】

[The arrow is on the string and has to be fired. Now that Gao Shun and Zhao Yun have already set off, is there any reason to stop it? 】

[With Zhao Yun as the vanguard, if you attack Jingzhou, there is a high probability that you will be able to conquer it. As long as you conquer Jingzhou, you will not only get Jingzhou, expand the territory, and people, but also get martial arts talents! 】

[At this moment, Jingzhou is full of talents!The generals include Wei Yan, Huang Zhong, Wenpin, etc., the advisers include Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue, etc., who else has not yet come out of the mountain!Xu Shu, Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Ma Liang, Ma Di, etc.! 】

[What's more, Jingzhou's geographical location is excellent. From the west, you can enter Yizhou, the land of abundance. You can attack the Central Plains in the north, go down the river, and attack Sun Ce in the east of the river at any time! 】

[Now is a once-in-a-lifetime good excuse and good opportunity, how can you give up easily? 】

Ren Yun's voice sounded in his mind, and the corners of Lu Bu's mouth curled up slightly, with a firm determination to veto Yi Ji in his heart.

"Uncle Ji, there is no need to say any more! General Gongsun is a hero of the Han Dynasty. His son asked me to send his troops to the north to resist Yuan Shao. It was my duty to do so, but there was not enough food and grass! The major general went west to Jingzhou to borrow food. What a pity! The gentry of Jingzhou are too rude to kill the young general! How can I sit idly by and ignore him?"

"Wen Hou, my lord Liu Biao knows the difficulties in Yangzhou, so he is very willing to provide food and grass to help the people of Yangzhou and Wen Hou to tide over the difficulties!" Yi Ji clasped his fists, his expression tense, "Enemies should be resolved rather than knotted. As long as Wen Hou retreats, My lord is willing to provide 30 stones of food and grass!"

[Hold the grass, 30 stones of grain and grass?Generous! 】

[I was a little moved by what I said!Before Yuan Shu told Lu Bu not to intervene in the attack on Liu Bei, he only offered 20 shi, and you got 30 as soon as you asked!Is it really like food and grass without money? 】

[Or is it that your Jingzhou family has a big business?A mere 30 stone grain and grass, is it not painful at all? 】

[Since you can give so much, then as long as Jingzhou is captured, no matter how much food and grass Jingzhou has, doesn’t it all belong to Lu Bu? 】

[Lu Bu, Lu Bu, don't be tempted!Although this is not a small benefit, you must see the greater interests of Jingzhou!Compared with Jingzhou, 30 shi of grain and grass is nothing! 】

"30?" Lu Bu smiled and looked around everyone, "If I get 30 stones, grain and grass, the people of Yangzhou will be able to tide over the difficulties!"

"Yes! Please Wen Hou put the people first!" Yi Ji looked excited, feeling that he was about to succeed, "Wen Hou, since the beginning of the Code, all the sage monarchs are very sympathetic to the people, a sage monarch like Wen Hou you , there must be more than nothing!"

"Uncle Ji is so good!" Lu Bu narrowed his eyes slightly, with a strange smile on his face, "Since Liu Biao can give you 30 shi of grain and grass, I think Jingzhou has a lot of grain and grass reserves to make me drool, right?"

"what?"

"Yi Ji!" Lu Bu stood up abruptly, his eyes like eagles, "You are so courageous, as I said, General Gongsun is a hero of a great man, and now his son has suffered an accident. Can you sit idly by? Since ancient times, blood debts must be paid with blood!"

"Wen Hou, be good at attacking schemes!" Yi Ji's face turned pale, "Please Wen Hou, please don't use a moment of anger to burn thousands of lives!"
