As the saying goes,"Three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang."
Although Liu Bei did not have any top counselors yet, after a discussion, they did hit the jackpot: they barely guessed one of the reasons why Cao Jian plotted against them!
Although there is no real evidence at the moment, this matter cannot be considered: the more you think about it, the more your scalp numbs!
Zhang Fei's temper could no longer help but explode completely:
"Brother! What if that little bastard really wants to take care of the two sisters-in-law?
Now Xiaopei has fallen into the hands of Cao's army, and the two sisters-in-law are still in the city.……"
Before he finished speaking, Liu Bei's face had turned black as rice crust, and he couldn't help but whispered:
"Third brother, stop talking!"
There is no doubt that he didn't dare to think about it at this moment. If something really happened, where would he put his face?
"You all, please go down! I want to be alone.……"
After sending everyone away, Liu Bei didn't sleep well all night.
The next morning... the faint dark circles on his face vaguely accused Liu Bei of being depressed all night.
However, as a low-key and forbearing future king!
In a parallel world in the future, he was once personally recognized by Boss Cao as one of the only two heroes in the world!
Liu Bei's scheming is naturally incomparable to ordinary people!
After only one night of self-comfort, he has completed the psychological construction: at this time, he can continue to chat and laugh with everyone in Cao Ying with a normal expression!
Even when facing Boss Cao's smiling face, as if he really regarded himself as a"brother", Liu Bei can remain calm.
This kind of mentality and forbearance can be said to be rare in the world! When the two sides continued to march all the way to Xiaopei...
Not long after!
The good news from Xuzhou City finally came:
"Report——!"
"My lord, the latest victory report from the second son Zixiong in Xuzhou City!"
The third group of the vanguard troops, led by the second son himself, together with Captain Wen Qian, led a total of 5,000 soldiers to attack Xuzhou City overnight!
Our army used Chen Yuanlong, the governor of Guangling in the city, as an insider and attacked the city that night!
Captain Wen Qian led the troops and annihilated more than 1,500 enemies, and captured thousands of surrendered soldiers!
The second son was fearless in the face of danger, and in the chaos, he personally killed the enemy's main general Cheng Lian who was defending the city!
Now the main city of Xuzhou has been occupied by our army, and there are countless supplies and food in the city!
The second son is now in the city to defend the city and keep the people safe, and he specially sent us to report the good news.
……"
When the victory news came, the morale of Cao's army soared!
In an instant, there was a roar of applause!
After hearing this, Xun You, Cao Hong, Yu Jin and other generals looked at each other in shock!
Even Boss Cao himself was surprised:
Obviously, such a great military achievement really exceeded his original expectations by too much! In addition to being shocked, Boss Cao obviously couldn't fully adapt for a while: the fact that his son, who was a playboy, suddenly became better than anyone else! Fearing that he had heard it wrong, he quickly took the victory report and looked at it again with his own eyes!
In the end, even with Boss Cao's temperament, he still couldn't believe it:
"Although it sounds incredible that only 5,000 soldiers and horses could launch a surprise attack on Xuzhou, it is not impossible to achieve such a result with Chen Yuanlong as the insider.
"But... the enemy's main general Cheng Lian, who is said to be one of the few brave generals under Lu Bu, was really killed by my son Xiong himself?"
After hearing this, the messenger looked proud and responded repeatedly:
"My lord, this is absolutely true!"
""The enemy general Cheng Lian was stabbed to death by the second young master with just one shot in front of everyone!"
After saying that, he quickly repeated the dangerous situation at that time.
After getting repeated confirmation,
Boss Cao finally believed it as if he was dreaming:
"This brat! I didn't expect that he is not only smart but also has outstanding martial arts skills? ?"
"It seems that I didn’t care enough about him in the past and I didn’t even know about this!!"
"Incredible! Absolutely incredible……"
At this moment, Boss Cao was so happy that he wanted to fly to the frontline right away to verify it himself!
Amid the cheers of high morale,
Liu Bei and his party were completely reduced to supporting roles.
Even though they felt bad about what they heard, they could only pinch their noses and put on a smile and congratulate.
After a long time... when the cheers gradually subsided. After everyone finally calmed down from the continuous good news,
Boss Cao suddenly remembered something and asked expectantly:
"By the way, apart from the military intelligence mentioned in this victory report, are there any other results?"
"The main city of Xuzhou is where Lu Bu’s base camp is located. If nothing unexpected happens, the relevant family members should all be in the city!
If we can find the important family members of the thief leader, it would be a great achievement. Why haven’t they been reported?
Could it be that they escaped in the chaos, or were they moved away in advance by Lu Bu?"
Hearing this, the messenger couldn't help but smile awkwardly and said meaningfully:
"My Lord, in that main city, we did find two important family members: one was Lü Bu's concubine, Diao Chan; the other was the wife of Lü Bu's general Qin Yilu, Du.……"
As soon as these words came out,
Boss Cao became excited instantly, and he was already shouting in his heart:
"Diao Chan——! The most beautiful woman in the world, Diao Chan, is already in my pocket!!!"
In fact, among the people present, besides him, there was another person who was even more excited!
It was not someone else, but the arrogant Guan Yu——Guan Yunchang!
The moment he heard that"Du" had been captured by Cao's army?
This dignified Guan who always liked to squint his eyes and rarely looked at people with his eyes straight!
Unexpectedly, for the first time in his life, he suddenly opened his narrow and long phoenix eyes!
Perhaps because he had been coveting her for a long time, he didn't care about his position at this time!
As for the original hostility towards the Cao family, let's put it aside for now!
Before the messenger could finish his words!
Guan Yu looked at Boss Cao with a burning look in his eyes:
"Lord Cao! Please forgive me for being so bold, but I have something to ask for your help!"
After hearing this, Boss Cao couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise: he had always valued Guan Yu and had always wanted to recruit him, but he had no idea where to start!
Now, it was rare to see this stubborn gentleman asking for help for the first time in his life?
In his joy, Boss Cao thought it was a rare opportunity to win over Guan
Yu! So he quickly suppressed his inner ecstasy and responded with a smile:
"Yunchang, what do you want? Just say it!"
"As long as I can do it, I will do my best to satisfy you.……"
After hearing this, Guan Yu was delighted and immediately spoke without hesitation:
"Reply to Cao Gong! Although Guan is a warrior, he also knows the words of loyalty and righteousness.
The sage said,"There are three kinds of unfilial behavior, and the worst is to have no offspring"!
I have been married and have no offspring, which can be said to be the worst kind of unfilial behavior!"
"Now I heard that Mrs. Du was captured by Cao's army, so I had a wish.
As far as I know, although Mrs. Du was originally the wife of Qin Yiluo, she had been abandoned and married to someone else since Qin Yiluo was sent by Lu Bu to Yuan Shu to form an alliance.
Therefore, she is now a woman without a master and cannot be considered as anyone's family member.……"
After that, he cupped his hands again and mustered up his courage to say:
"Therefore, Guan, I dare to ask Cao Gong for mercy!
After entering the city, please give Mrs. Du to Guan as my wife.……"
