Mi Zhu thought for a while and said, "Second brother, how much food and grass do we have?"
Wang Xiu was overjoyed when he heard Mi Zhu asking about food and grass. It seemed that the other party was planning to support them, and he was one step closer to completing his mission.
Mi Fang said depressedly: "Brother, do you really want to give Yuan Shao food and grass?"
Mi Zhu patiently explained: "Currently Qingxu is under Yuan Gong's control, we have to do this, not to mention, if we want to develop in Qingxu two states in the future, we must trouble Yuan Gong!"
Wang Xiu said gratefully: "Mr. Zizhong understands righteousness deeply, my lord will definitely thank you very much."
Mi Zhu said meaningfully: "The sooner Mr. Yuan becomes strong, the sooner my sister can get out of the sea of suffering. Second brother, you leave the family's food storage in the mansion for a year, and prepare all the rest and send it to Qingzhou. In addition, prepare five thousand gold. 2000 million coins, [-] bolts of silk and [-] servants, all given to Duke Yuan."
"Brother, no!" Mi Fang urged hastily.
This is a life gamble, giving away [-]% of the family property, and still being a brother-in-law without a name.
"I have the final say on this family."
Faced with Mi Zhu's dominance, Mi Fang didn't dare to say anything, so she obediently went to prepare supplies.
Wang Xiu was grateful again: "Mr. Zizhong is a model of Xuzhou's gentry with his kindness and righteousness!"
Mi Zhu suddenly changed the subject and said, "These things may not be taken for nothing!"
Wang Xiu hurriedly asked, "I don't know what is Mr. Zizhong's request?"
"Donglai County is surrounded by the sea on three sides, and it is very close to Liaodong County, Youzhou. I want to be the sheriff of Donglai County, and my younger brother wants to be a county captain. I wonder if Yuan Gong will agree?"
Wang Xiu thought for a while and said, "I need to ask the lord for his opinion on this, but it shouldn't be difficult to think about it!"
"Then I won't keep Master Shuzhi. When you come back next time, remember to bring more soldiers and horses, so as not to be snatched by that Zang Ba again."
"Then I bid farewell!"
After Wang Xiu left, Mi Zhu said with a smile, "Is it true that my Mi family is your Yuan family's treasury?"
Mi Fang asked: "Why does elder brother want to be the prefect of Donglai County? Wouldn't it be better to go directly to Jizhou?"
"We can't help my brother-in-law if we go to Jizhou, he has countless capable people, but if we go to Donglai County, if brother-in-law Cao Shuo wants to attack Qingzhou one day, our Donglai County will be a knife in Yuan Shao's heart."
Mi Fang asked puzzledly: "Then why did we give Yuan Shao troops? We went to Donglai County, and we also need reliable men?"
Mi Zhu shook his head, looked at his ineffective younger brother, and said, "Then why don't you hurry up and inform Zang Ba to prepare two thousand soldiers for me!"
"This……"
Mi Fang wiped off her cold sweat, and sent Cao Shuo's soldiers to Yuan Shao?
If Yuan Shao found out in the future that these soldiers were undercover agents, he might vomit blood.
According to Mi Zhu's order, Mi Fang quietly left the city at night.
Not long after Mi Fang left, Chen Deng from the Chen family came to the door.
"Is Mr. Zizhong here? Chen Yuanlong, please see me!"
Chapter 277 The Shocked Liu Bei
After Guan Yu returned to Nanyang County, seeing Liu Bei, the three brothers huddled together and wept bitterly.
"Second brother has worked hard!"
"Brother, third brother, you have worked hard too!"
The three brothers struggled for five or six years, and returned to the starting point again, but the gratifying thing is that they have more civil servants and generals.
As long as they have these family backgrounds, they will be able to make a comeback sooner or later.
Liu Bei asked eagerly, "Can Yun Chang bring any useful news from Luoyang?"
Guan Yu thought for a while, useful news?
"Brother, Cao Shuo's subordinates are full of talents. Huang Zhong, who was escorted by me earlier, is more powerful than me. We should be careful in the future."
Liu Bei was horrified, "How could such a person turn to Cao Shuo?"
Huang Zhong is Liu Biao's general, such a peerless general, Liu Biao would let him go?Is this Liu Biao deceived by lard?
Zhang Fei said, "Second brother, are you sure that Huang Zhong can beat you?"
He knew Guan Yu's martial arts very well. If Guan Yu couldn't beat Huang Zhong, he probably couldn't beat him himself. Even if he could beat Huang Zhong, he would have to pay a heavy price.
"I have compared him twice, and his strength is indeed superior to mine. Maybe he can compete with Lu Bu."
Liu Bei beat his chest angrily, this Liu Jingsheng actually watched such a peerless general throw himself at the enemy.
"Brother Jing Sheng is confused!"
Guan Yu explained: "Brother may have misunderstood. Huang Zhong's son was seriously ill, and only Cao Shuo could treat him. For his own son, he only needs to rely on Cao Shuo."
"Hey!"
Faced with this explanation, Liu Bei could only sigh, who made him not know medical skills.
"Brother, Zhao Yun under Cao Shuo's tent is also above me!"
"what?"
Liu Bei's eyes widened, and he looked at Guan Yu in disbelief. There is a martial artist who is superior to Guan Yu. How many capable people does Cao Shuo have under his command?
Zhang Fei asked bitterly: "Second brother has been to Cao Shuo's place for many days, has he never won?"
Guan Yu thought for a while, except for Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun, he had no comparison with Cao Shuo at all.
Dian Wei made a move in front of his face, but he was not sure how strong this person was.
Seeing Guan Yu sinking into deep thought, Liu Bei's heart sank directly into the abyss, wow, this Cao Shuo must be a big obstacle for him to help the Han Dynasty in the future.
Guan Yu sighed and said, "I may not even rank among the top five with Cao Shuo."
"puff!"
Liu Bei just drank the tea in his mouth and spit it out. He was very clear about Guan Yu's ability, but he couldn't rank in the top five. How can he compete with Cao Shuo in the future?
Zhang Fei frightened: "Second brother, are you joking?"
Guan Yu explained: "Brother, third brother, do you still remember Dian Wei who captured Huaxiong alive before Hulao Pass?"
"Of course I remember!" Zhang Fei replied impatiently.
He was shocked by Dian Wei's power at that time, judging from pure strength, even he was not Dian Wei's opponent.
"This person's martial arts are definitely not inferior to yours and mine, plus Cao Shuo, who once defeated Lu Bu, what strength do you think we have to rank in the top five?"
"This……"
Liu Bei is so angry, why did all the fierce generals go to Cao Shuo, can you keep two for me?
Guan Yu thought of Xu Chu's behavior again, and suddenly said: "When we passed by Yangdi, we saw Cao Shuo's two guards in Cao Cao's camp, Xu Chu, brothers Xu Ding, Dou Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, who do you guess? won?"
Liu Bei said in amazement: "Brother Xiahou's martial arts are extraordinary. Although they are not as good as the two younger brothers, they are still fierce generals in the world. It will be no problem to defeat Cao Shuo's two guards."
Guan Yu pulled his face and said, "They won!"
"how is this possible!"
Liu Bei and Zhang Fei felt a little smug, Cao Shuo actually had so many strong generals under his command.
Guan Yu talked about the situation at that time, and Liu Bei and Zhang Fei were very depressed when they heard it. Do they want to hide when they see Cao Shuo in the future?
"Brother, I have another important message!"
Liu Bei's face darkened, and he asked, "What important news?"
Could it be that Cao Shuo still has a fierce general under his command, not weaker than Guan Yu?
"Your Majesty was killed by Dong Zhuo!"
"what?"
Liu Bei stood up suddenly, his face was gloomy and terrifying, and his hands creaked.
"Tie Dong, I swear to kill you!"
Guan Yu persuaded: "Brother, Dong Zhuo is powerful, we need to think long-term!"
"About raising the account!"
Liu Bei's counselors Zhao Yan, Du Xi, Jian Yong, Sun Qian, and general Li Tong were all recruited.
"My lord, General Guan!"
When everyone saw Guan Yu coming back, they were very pleasantly surprised. They were lucky to be able to come back safe and sound.
Liu Bei said straight to the point: "Yun Chang just came back from Luoyang and brought a very unfortunate news. His Majesty was killed by Dong Zhuo!"
"how come?"
Everyone was terrified. Doesn't Liu Xie's death mean that the big man is over?
"I asked you to come here to discuss the matter of raising troops to attack Dong Zhuo!"
"Fight against Dong Zhuo?"
Everyone wiped off a cold sweat. Back then they owned the three counties but did not break through Dong Zhuo's defense. Now only Nanyang is left, and it is only a part of it. How can they compete with Dong Zhuo?
Zhao Yan persuaded: "My lord, our army has no strength to attack Dong Zhuo now, please think twice, my lord!"
Liu Bei said angrily, "Should Dong Zhuo be allowed to cause chaos all over the world?"
Du Xi also persuaded: "My lord, I have a plan, maybe I can kill Dong Zhuo!"
Chapter 278 Liu Bei lobbying Liu Biao to attack Dong Zhuo
"What's your plan, sir?" Liu Bei calmed down his anger a little bit, and looked at Du Xi eagerly.
Du Xi said: "Our army is weak and we may not be able to defeat Dong Zhuo. Why don't you ask Liu Biao to send troops. He is also a member of the Han family. His Majesty was killed and the Han Dynasty was taken. Doesn't he hate Dong Zhuo?"
Jian Yong and Sun Qian agreed: "I will second the proposal. Mr. Zixu is right. If Liu Biao agrees to send troops, our army's winning rate will be greatly increased."
Guan Yu said: "Cao Zixiang stationed troops in Luoyang, and he also intended to attack Dong Zhuo. If we can persuade him to attack Hangu Pass, then our pressure in Wuguan will be much less."
Zhao Yan worried: "If our army can't storm Wuguan, with Cao Shuo's shrewdness, we will definitely not storm Hangu Pass."
Du Xi said: "Before Dong Zhuo proclaimed himself emperor, he added [-] troops to Wuguan, and the number of soldiers guarding the pass has reached [-]. If we attack by force, our army will not have the strength."
Liu Bei now only has more than 3 soldiers and horses left. Even with the addition of recruits, it is only in the early [-]s.
Sun Qian said: "Your Majesty is willing to go to Jingzhou to persuade Liu Biao to support our army to attack Wuguan."
"Okay, then I will trouble Mr. Gongyou to go to Xiangyang!"
"I'm going right now!"
After Sun Qian left, Liu Bei also began to build siege equipment on a large scale, and ordered Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Du Xi to lead [-] soldiers to Xi County.
Sun Qian came to Xiangyang City all the way. He was on the street and heard a lot of gossip about Dong Zhuo proclaiming emperor, Liu Xie being killed, and then Dong Zhuo's death.
Sun Qian was amazed. Dong Zhuo proclaimed himself emperor at noon on the third day of the third month, and General Guan only brought the news to Nanyang County when he came back in the early morning. Why did it spread so quickly in Xiangyang City?
Liu Biao was lying on the bed, drinking the medicine from Cai's bowl.
A maid came in and said respectfully, "Master, Liu Bei's envoy, Sun Gan begs to see you!"
"Sun Gan?"
Cai's eyes narrowed. What is this man doing in Xiangyang? Is he asking for food or money?Never let Liu Biao see him.
However, before Liu Biao responded, another maid came in and said, "My lord, Lord Cai Mao, Lord Kuai Liang, and Lord Kuai Yue are asking to see you!"
"Ok?"
Liu Biao was amazed. Did they agree, or was it just a coincidence?
"Let them wait in the chamber, I'll go there right away!"
"promise!"
Liu Biao hurriedly drank the medicine, left the backyard, and saw that his subordinates were not only the three of them, not driving Liu Xian, the chief secretary Liu Xian, and general Wenpin were all there.
Liu Biao asked suspiciously, "Is there any important business for you, gentlemen, to come to me?"
Cai Mao asked in surprise, "Hasn't my lord heard of it?"
"What did you hear?" Liu Biao looked at Cai Mao suspiciously.
