A Dou can afford it

The atmosphere of the second meeting with Yuan Shao was still not very good, of course, who would not be happy to see that my brother still had a black-faced steamed bun yesterday, but today there is only half a steamed bun.

But this time Yuan Shao really blamed A Dou. After A Dou received a quarter of the cleaned black-faced steamed buns offered by the fourth soldier yesterday and declined politely, he felt that he was smart enough to realize that Yuan Shu didn’t like to eat them. Steamed buns, so he generously gave up his steamed buns today, but since steamed buns are indeed tastier in his opinion, and he can’t get enough from eating steamed buns alone, he secretly shared a small half of them, Anyway, Yuan Shu likes to hold things in his hands, and the buns are wrinkled into a ball, the size should be... can't be seen.

A Dou sat next to Mr. Kong Ming with a calm expression, and couldn't help following Yuan Shao's vicious eyes to look at the steamed bun that Yuan Shu was holding tightly in his hand, hey, you guards, I know the food is a little bit Everyone who is so tight has no steamed buns to eat, but can you stop drooling over those dregs, you know that you have no image?It's a big deal, my bun for dinner... Lu's perverted bun is ready for you to eat, hey, that guard who secretly used the handle of a gun to smash the scum, you are enough!

"I don't know how Mr. Yuan thought about it all night?" Kong Ming gracefully picked up his teacup and took a sip. Due to material constraints, his cup is actually just white water now, but he drank it out of nowhere. In the misty white smoke, Kong Ming's brows and eyes showed a kind of tranquility.

"I heard that the battle situation in the north of the Xuzhou Army is not optimistic. You, General Guan, have been arrested." Unexpectedly, today Yuan Shao changed his impatience yesterday and started talking about him. Hit Xuzhou's weakness.

Yes, the current situation in Xuzhou can be said to be very bad. Under Cao Cao's onslaught, Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei had less than [-] soldiers left. Huang Zhong and Kong Ming left Xuzhou Central. There were no soldiers to use, and although Adou accidentally captured Yuan Shu, he failed to take Yangzhou because of Lu Bu's serious injury and Yuan Shao's timely arrival. They are now facing the enemy.

Although Yuan Shu is in hand, Yuan Shao has plenty of time to spend with them, but on the other hand, because of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao no longer has any worries about attacking, and the north of Xuzhou will fall soon. In a word, Yuan Shao can afford to wait, they But can't afford to wait.

When Yuan Shao came yesterday, he was aggressive but hot-headed, and Kong Ming returned angrily with a sentence or two, but today he has accurately grasped the current situation and pushed them into a desperate situation. If there is no expert guidance, they will definitely not possible.

Is it Guo Jia...

Kong Ming looked at the tea cup in his hand indifferently. Yuan Shu was extreme and Yuan Shao was jealous. He thought that Guo Jia, who was Cao Cao's envoy and had already been civilized by Qingzhou, would not be trusted by the arrogant Yuan Shao. Now it seems that he Still underestimated Yuan Shao's determination to rescue Yuan Shu.

Yes, to save Yuan Shu, if it wasn't for Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao would never have bowed his head to a counselor of another vassal, but this trip was in a hurry. Effective counseling, Zhang Jai's recommendation, he can only use Guo Jia, but now it seems that this literati is unexpectedly easy to use, just a few words hit Xuzhou's weakness, at this time Yuan Shao already had a murderous intention in his heart He is not like Yuan Shu. The friendship he grew up with Cao Cao is enough to let him know what kind of person Cao Cao is. If he is not sure, Guo Jia will not rebel. It has been so long in the barracks that they have not been ignored, but Cao Cao was very angry when the spies reported that Guo Jia spontaneously instructed Zhang Jaw to inform him. Also, the fat meat he got will now be divided into half with him. Cao Aman is not reconciled. Now, looking at the surprisingly good relationship between Zhang Jai and Guo Jia, let's save his life for the time being.The most important thing now is to consider how to get Yuan Shu back.

Kong Ming knew that it was going to be bad when Yuan Shao said that Guan Yu was arrested. Before Zhao Yun wrote that Zhang Fei was in a coma, and Guan Yu who went to meet him had not returned. Telling Ah Dou, instead he chose to forge a "letter from home" to stabilize his emotions.

From the time he first arrived in Xuzhou, he knew how deep A Dou's affection for these two sworn brothers was, not because these two brothers were the peerless generals envied by the world, but a deeper family affection He could feel A Dou's affection for these two brothers as close relatives. This is by no means Liu Bei's method of winning people's hearts with hypocrisy. Kong Ming believes that it is precisely because A Dou treats these two brothers with sincerity. In order to attract more and more people to report.

But true love also has its greatest weakness, which is the sacrifice of war in this troubled world.

A wise and decisive lord like Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and even Yuan Shu can calmly use his civil servants and military generals before the war and the current situation, let them play the best role, and even if they unfortunately die in battle, they will soon die. Adjust and send new generals to take over.

But A Dou can't do it. Whether it's Lu Bu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yunyi or him, A Dou will be very disturbed every time before parting. This is why Kong Ming still tolerates A Dou being confused with so many people after he officially accepted (?!), because no one of them can stay with Ah Dou all the time, if something happens to them in the future, Ah Dou still has other pillars to keep going.

But now that Guan Yu has been arrested, the situation in Xuzhou is in dire straits. With A Dou's personality like a family member, it is very likely that Xuzhou will be left in exchange for Guan Yu. As everyone knows, in this troubled world, he has already emerged, so how can other princes tolerate it? After losing Xuzhou, he continued to survive, and when the time came to beat the dog in the water, the tens of thousands of them left alone would be hard to beat with two fists and four hands.

Kong Ming tightened his grip on the teacup. Now that Yuan Shao received the news of Guan Yu's arrest so quickly, it was obvious that he had reached a cooperation with Cao Cao. After that, the situation became even more tense. Now that Yuan Shao brought it up, he just wanted to use Yuan Shu It is impossible for them not to change Guan Yu with Adou's personality, but if they agree to exchange, it is a foregone conclusion that Xuzhou will be defeated.At this time, even though Kong Ming clearly couldn't agree, he couldn't make a decision beyond A Dou, unless he wanted A Dou to break with him.

Let Lu Bu take A Dou away, and then make a decision instead of A Dou.

For a while, Kong Ming had a sudden change of mind. If it was for Adou's safety and career, it wouldn't matter if he broke up with him.

"Ah, the second...brother was arrested...at Cao Cao's place? That's great." Just when Kong Ming decided to send someone to take Adou away, Adou's behavior was unexpected. It's like taking a big breath.Yuan Shao was taken aback by that appearance.

"Thank you for telling me this news, but let's get to the point quickly. Yesterday, my husband asked you to exchange Yangzhou for brother Yuan Shu. How do you think about it?" Listening to A Dou calmly calling Yuan Shu's brother, Yuan Shao and Kong Ming His face turned weird for a moment, not to mention Yuan Shu, who was pressed aside, felt like he was trembling with his hands, and kept dropping goosebumps to the ground.

Choked by A Dou's blunt question, Yuan Shao obviously hadn't thought about why things would suddenly develop like this, "Don't you plan to exchange Yuan Shu for Guan Yu?" After a brief silence, A Dou asked innocently, "Why should I exchange Yuan Shu for my second brother? I want to exchange Yangzhou. The second brother will come back by himself. Why are you so concerned about him?" It's your brother, don't come to grab my brother's expression and stare at him.

……

Coming out of Xuzhou Daying, the dark-faced Yuan Shao felt like a fool. Who said that Liu Bei would definitely compromise if he was lured by Guan Yu?Look at his happy expression, this Liu Papi who is red-faced and black-hearted!

"Adou, you..."

Seeing that Yuan Shao returned without success, although Kong Ming was amazed at Adou's performance today, he still couldn't help asking, because now Adou's appearance is not at all as if he knew that his relatives were arrested and couldn't eat.Didn't you see that even Yuan Shu looked at A Dou in horror, feeling that he had misjudged someone?

Cao Ying.

Cao Cao soon learned the news that Yuan Shao had returned without success, but laughed three times at the moment. Originally, he had reached an agreement with Yuan Shao to exchange five thousand armaments and weapons for Guan Yu's exchange rights. I don't know that Yuan Shao's army is well-equipped, and the Yuan family is rich and powerful, almost monopolizing [-]% of the ironware market. Good weapons can determine the combat effectiveness of an army. Look at Lu Bu's famous men who are now almost making them feel ashamed. With the aid of Dong Zhuo's support to buy the armament iron, and now with the five thousand armaments, it is enough to make his Huben army stronger.

But now that the deal failed, Cao Cao didn't feel any pity at all. Qianjun is easy to buy and it's hard to find a general. Originally, he was still worried that Guan Yu and Liu Bei had a deep relationship, and the possibility of him surrendering was too low. As long as he tells Guan Yu about this matter with embellishment, Guan Yu will definitely be disappointed with Liu Bei. By then, this general will be his.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao couldn't wait to raise a wretched smile, which made the servant next to him tremble, "My lord, the Fourth Madam invited you to drink tea, look..."

"No, let's go, I'm going to see Guan Yu."

Cao Cao couldn't sit still any longer, so he immediately abandoned the concubine, the fourth wife, who had just been selected, and rushed towards Guan Yu with a light like a hungry wolf.

"Ahem." Walking to the door, Cao Cao did not forget to adjust his appearance, and then walked in with a sad face.

After Guan Yu was arrested, Cao Cao placed him in a tent in the barracks. Apart from yelling to kill him to vent his anger, Guan Yu's life was more than a little better than that of the previous days, and his red cheeks became fat at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Yun Chang..." Cao Cao skillfully stopped one foot away from Guan Yu. This distance can ensure that if Guan Yu suddenly hurts someone, Dian Wei outside the door can rescue him immediately. "I just heard a piece of news. Although I can't believe it, I still want to tell Yun Chang after thinking about it. I also hope that Yun Chang will not be too sad after hearing it."

"..." Guan Yu whose memory was still stuck in the state of getting up in the morning.

Regarding Guan Yu's lack of response, Cao Cao didn't seem to mind at all, and continued on his own: "Yun Chang is benevolent and loyal, and he single-handedly fought with our army until he broke away. Feelings, I feel that since you don't want to surrender me, it's okay to let you go back to reunite with your brother. Unexpectedly, today I learned that Liu Cishi had given up on you for a mere Xuzhou. We will treat each other with courtesy, and if Yun Chang changes his mind in the future, the gate of Cao Ying will be opened for Yun Chang at any time!"

"Brother..." Guan Yu said, Cao Cao was overjoyed to see Guan Yu's reaction, and waited for Guan Yu's next words with great anticipation.Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, Guan Yu still kept the posture of calling for big brother just now. Seeing that Cao Cao was already waiting for the messenger at the door, he could only comfort himself that Guan Yu was immersed in the emotion of being abandoned. Resigned to his fate, he exited the gate and went to deal with official duties.

"...told me to surrender." Cao Cao, who was walking away, naturally did not hear the four words behind Guan Yu, who was half a beat behind, otherwise he would sigh Guan Yu's loyalty with a sad face, and refused to abandon his sworn brother so far. How come there are no such good seedlings.

Here, A Dou muttered in Mr. Kong Ming's arms as if he felt something, "Second Uncle, you must surrender. Mrs. Yueying said that you used to be very prestigious with Cao Cao, and you passed five levels with just one news." Kill the six generals, I was summoned back by my father, now the front line is dangerous, you should stay there to grab food, and I will come to pick you up when I sell Yuan Shu, Mrs. Yueying said that Cao Cao will obey you every step of the way , I asked Awei, and Awei said that Cao Cao was your little daughter-in-law in her previous life, so she always chased you, which is good for you.It's still the second uncle. If it were Uncle Zhang Fei, he would be scared to death. Uncle Zhang Fei has such a violent temper, so he must rescue him as soon as possible.

A Dou Xiong Ba Lu Chapter 77: "A Dou, what are you doing?" Kong Ming saw A Dou sneakily stuffing a letter into the messenger's hand with a dark face, and even gave the soldier a small piece of black-faced steamed bun as a bribe, Don't think he didn't see that he secretly snapped a piece of Lu Bu's steamed bun last night. That idiot Lu Bu thought it was A Dou biting it, and even took it to show off to him.

"Mr. Kong Ming, I... I am asking the orderly to deliver a single letter (commonly known as an ancient blackmail letter)."

"A single letter?"

"Well, that Yuan Shao never redeemed Yuan Shu. I was thinking that Yuan Shao must have disliked Yuan Shu and was unwilling to redeem him. But Yuan Shu's cronies were kept in the dark, so now I have to send the letter according to the procedure. If Yuan Shao doesn't pay, someone will naturally pay." A Dou had a look on his face that I saw through.

"...Good idea." Kongming Laohuai comforted him.

"Yeah, sir, you don't know, this Yuan Shu eats a lot, even if he eats a lot, he likes to waste food, every time I have to save the steamed buns for him to eat before he calms down, I can't eat enough recently ..."

"...I can bite half of my steamed bun for you."

"Really? How nice sir!"

"Well, so don't bite Lu Bu's steamed buns."
