Chapter 103 I can’t wait to give myself a slap!
In early July, the west wind suddenly picked up.
As the howling west wind between heaven and earth begins to sweep across the entire Han Dynasty, autumn has arrived.
Xuzhou, inside Dongping City.
Cao Cao was holding the army rations that had been delivered from the supply camp not long ago, and he felt a little dazed for a long time.
"Zhicai, is this really edible?"
Military rations made from locusts!
This guy was also the one who came up with it.
Knowing that the pancake in his hand was made from locusts, Cao Cao felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
On the side, Xi Zhicai took a swig of water into his mouth after thinking for a long time.
Now, the Chen family has sided with Cao Cao.
"And from what I've seen, Lu Bu's current actions indicate that he intends to annex Liu Bei in one fell swoop. It's true that he would say this!"
Such a situation made Liu Bei's feelings indescribably complicated.
at the same time.
If Cao Cao really doesn't care, Liu Bei will be swallowed up by Lu Bu sooner or later!
Seeing that Xi Zhi had already eaten the entire noodle cake in his mouth in just two or three mouthfuls, Cao Cao's eyes widened and he was lost in thought.
Liu, Guan, and Zhang looked at each other.
Since the migratory locusts passed through, disasters have appeared throughout Xuzhou.
Zhang Fei was so angry that he slapped himself twice. Seeing this, Liu Bei quickly blocked him!
This thing was so unexpected that it made Lu Bu panic!
Although there was some resistance in my heart, who would have thought that this was my younger brother who was escorted here.
"Listen to Duke Cao's instructions!"
Cao Ren also said it was like chicken, and at this moment Cao Cao couldn't help it.
"Meng De is a rare hero in the world, but it's only today that I have realized it clearly!"
"Liu Bei cooperated with Cao Gong?"
"Brother, it's not poisonous!"
"Yun Chang, Yide, please sit down too!"
After opening his mouth and taking a bite, his whole face became dull.
As Xi Zhicai spoke, Cao Cao slammed the table in front of him.
Liu Bei seemed to understand and smiled.
But now, with Liu Bei's surrender, the whole of Xuzhou has turned to Cao Cao. It is difficult for Lu Bu to achieve great things.
He is willing to hand over Xuzhou!
After Cao Cao took his seat, he invited Liu Bei to sit down. The latter sat down happily, and Guan and Zhang naturally stood behind him!
"Liu Bei said he was a pastor in Xuzhou, but he couldn't restrain Lu Bu!"
Chen Deng raised his head and glanced at his father, then raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Even if Zhang Fei hadn't been drunk, it would have been difficult for Liu Bei to defend Xuzhou.
"good!"
Everyone is aware of this matter, and there is no need to say anything more.
Liu Bei is not Han Fu.
It's not like Cao Cao has never eaten chicken. You're just trying to impress your younger brother, so there's no need to do this, right?
Cao Cao didn't believe it, but as Xi Zhicai took the lead in trying it, Cao Ren on the other side also opened his mouth and took a bite.
"Tomorrow, Xuande will go to Pengcheng with me!"
Not to mention the opponent's elite soldiers and generals, there is nothing to worry about in terms of military rations.
This time he has occupied half of Xuzhou. If Liu Bei opens the city and surrenders, all of Xiapi will belong to him.
What's more, this time he has tens of thousands of soldiers from Xiliang, and tens of thousands of Danyang soldiers brought by Cao Bao!
In total, there were tens of thousands of people, plus the soldiers from Pengcheng and Tancheng, and they were not afraid of Cao Cao at all.
This is a bit intentional.
At this time, there is no need for him to be polite. The entire Xiapi has been completely taken over by Cao Jun. Even the soldiers led by Liu Bei have been completely taken over by him at this moment!
Liu Bei didn't even have any objections to this.
He originally planned to annex Liu Bei in one fell swoop, but before he could take action, Liu Bei and Cao Cao joined forces.
The meaning of Cao Cao's words was too obvious.
Liu Bei said in the letter that it was not his intention to take over the role of pastor of Xuzhou. In fact, he was entrusted by Tao Gong before his death. Now he is unable to govern Xuzhou.
Hearing this news, Lu Bu was quite surprised.
I thought that after that guy Liu Bei succeeded Xuzhou, he would have to have a stalemate with him for a while.
What's more, he, Lu Bu, is just a defeated general!
At this moment, Cao Cao even wanted to call Xi Yu, who was in Juancheng, to come to the front line.
In short, in one sentence, Liu Bei said that he did not want to be the shepherd of Xuzhou and asked Cao Cao if he had any intention of taking over Xuzhou.
Since that person is not here, he has nothing to fear from Cao Cao.
"Yide, it's not your fault!"
“It’s God’s will!”
Yesterday, Cao Cao received Liu Bei's letter.
Only then did Liu Bei realize how big the gap was between him and Cao Cao.
"Liu Bei is a real hero!"
"Xuande, at this time, how do you think we should deal with that Lu Bu!"
On the surface, there seems to be no difference between the two statuses.
This matter has become a foregone conclusion and there are no more changes.
Cao Cao took a deep breath and felt particularly comfortable.
He and Cao Cao can only be said to be acquaintances. They share the same friendship as when they formed an alliance at Hulao Pass, nothing more.
Within the Pengcheng Yamen Office, Lu Bu sat in the first place, and Cao Bao, who had just surrendered, was in the second place.
Liu Bei saw Cao Cao leading his horse and immediately dismounted to greet him!
Liu Bei took action and glanced at Cao Cao subconsciously.
In the Chen Mansion, Chen Deng and his son, who had already decided to side with Cao Cao, were a little surprised when they learned that Liu Bei had surrendered from the city.
Cao Cao was a little unbelievable. Is this really made by Migratory Locust?
And I heard about Yanzhou, it seems that because of that drama, when the migratory locusts passed through, Yanzhou did not suffer much damage.
Hearing that Cao Cao's army was coming, the city gate was opened wide in Xiapi City. At this time, Liu Bei led Guan, Zhang and other people to wait at the city gate early.
"Brother, it is indeed as good as chicken!"
By then, Lu Bu will only have Pengcheng left!
With enemies on all sides, even though Lu Bu was extremely capable, there was nothing he could do.
Cao Cao turned to look at Liu Bei and couldn't help but smile.
This was beyond Cao Cao's expectation.
The taste of the bread filled the entire mouth in an instant, and the taste that was expected to be difficult to swallow did not appear.
"Brother, it's all because of me. If it weren't for me, An You would be like this!"
Xi Zhicai, who was sitting on the other side, remained silent. He looked at Liu Bei for a few moments and then spoke first.
Seeing that Liu Bei didn't look strange at all, Cao Cao couldn't help but look at him.
Outside Xiapi City.
"I never thought of it either!"
At this time, Cao Jun was not in a deadlock, and there was no way to call Xi Yu over now!
After collecting his mind, Cao Cao raised his head and looked at Cao Ren and the others.
"Fengyi is really a great talent. I am lucky to have Fengyi!"
After all, this is the land of a state, the position of a state's pastoralist!
Give in when asked, this courage alone is beyond the reach of anyone!
The worst case scenario is just a fight!
Just when Liu Bei looked a little regretful, the voice of a messenger suddenly came from outside the house.
"Zhicai, how does it taste?"
Along with the wine, the noodles quickly melted in the mouth.
The appearance of Xi Zhicai in front of me doesn't seem like he's just pretending. This pancake really seems to be edible!
"Lord, it tastes good, like chicken!"
After meeting a group of people under Cao Cao's command today.
How can locusts compare with chicken?
With his own abilities, there was no way he could resist Lu Bu at this moment.
Zhang Fei frowned and looked at the food box in front of him, thinking that he might as well not eat what Cao Cao sent!
If Xi Yu is here, what does Lu Bu mean?
I'm afraid that after knowing Xi Yu's arrival, Lu Bu would flee with his army the next day, right?
It's a pity that although he thought so in his heart, Cao Cao knew Xi Yu's temperament very well, and he had always been unwilling to be a general.
Liu Bei had no other choice.
Cao Cao already believed it in his heart!
But in Xuzhou, only Pengcheng and Tancheng controlled by Lu Bu were left!
It's just a place between two cities.
Liu Bei had a happy face, and the expression on his face was like that of a friend he hadn't seen for many years. At this moment, seeing Cao Cao coming, he looked extremely excited.
"Then Lu Bu took advantage of my unpreparedness to sneak attack on Yanzhou. This time is the time to take revenge!"
Guan Yu didn't say anything. After hearing what Zhang Fei said, he turned around and fumbled for a silver needle from behind.
"Zhicai, what do you think Liu Bei means by this?"
Followed by, the second bite, and the third bite.
Hearing this, the corners of Xi Zhi's mouth raised slightly!
Immediately afterwards, the situation inside Xuzhou changed.
"Okay, Xuande said it well!"
After the messenger put down the food box, he immediately looked at Liu Bei and Zhang Fei: "My lord also sent food boxes to the two generals!"
Someone comes and looks for Guan Yu!
Hearing this, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei subconsciously looked towards their second brother.
Liu Bei just smiled and obeyed his orders!
That night!
Liu Bei humbly asked to sit down, but Cao Cao was not polite at all.
In Xiapi City, Pengcheng Lu Bu learned about Liu Bei's attack on the city immediately.
Liu Bei could take the initiative to surrender Xuzhou, which was the best thing for Cao Cao.
But now, Liu Bei's letter made Cao Cao a little unsure.
"It's weird, it's weird!"
In the whole of Xuzhou, apart from Liu Bei, the only one left was Lu Bu!
What remains is how the Chen family can help Cao Cao drive Lu Bu out of Xuzhou!
…
"Brother, will Cao Cao poison us?"
Lu Bu was a little helpless.
Next to them, Guan and Zhang looked a little dull and said nothing.
Xi Zhicai was a little stunned, then he opened his mouth and took another bite. It was not an illusion!
The three of them took the food boxes and opened them. They saw a piece of bread placed in each box, along with a mouthful of meat and some wine.
Chen Gui laughed, this move by Liu Bei and Cao Cao was a very wise move.
Seeing the looks of Guan and Zhang, Cao Cao spoke again. The two glanced at Liu Bei without any hesitation, and then sat down on either side behind Liu Bei.
"Be it an outstanding person or a hero."
"Liu Bei had this intention, which saved him a lot of trouble!"
Then a heroic breath spewed out from the corner of his mouth.
His words were sincere and somewhat true.
Being included in the whole of Xuzhou with such ease was something he had never imagined.
Zhang Fei blames himself a little. If he hadn't been drunk and beat Cao Bao, how would he be in the current situation!
How could Liu Bei be forced to surrender to Cao Cao helplessly?
Liu Bei would never be so willing to be subordinate to others today!
Guan Yu was also a little puzzled. After calling the messenger in, he saw that he was holding a food box!
"I heard that General Guan hasn't eaten yet. This is what my master has sent!"
The ordering soldier glanced at the three of them, said nothing, and then withdrew.
"This time, I will act as Xuande and take a good breath!"
In the current situation, it is a wise move for the other party to make such a choice!
"What Zhicai said is true!"
Immediately afterwards, he saw Xi Zhicai opening his mouth and taking a bite of the pancake.
This person has occupied Jizhou for a long time, and after all, he still has some business.
It tastes really good!
Han Fu ceded Jizhou to Yuan Shao, on the one hand because Han Fu himself started out because of the Yuan family.
“It melts in your mouth and tastes great!”
He has already opened the city and surrendered. If he ridicules him again and again, it will appear that he is a bit petty.
Cao Cao is riding a yellow flying lightning, the bright yellow horse is extremely dazzling, Cao Cao, wearing a red cloak, is like a dazzling star at this moment.
Although Liu Bei tried to influence him, the city defense of Xiapi City had been taken over by Cao Jun.
"Brother Meng De!"
Cao Cao had a smile on his face. He was clearly angry, but he deliberately said he was venting his anger on Liu Bei's behalf.
Liu Bei's attitude was extremely low, and he completely meant that Cao Cao was the main one.
To be able to do such a thing in such a situation is not something that ordinary people can do.
There is no distinction between superior and inferior!
But now, Liu Bei is willing to give up the Xuzhou he has obtained, which is not something ordinary people can do.
Seeing that there was no strange expression on Cao Ren's face, Cao Cao subconsciously looked at him.
Xi Zhicai didn't hesitate too much.
"My lord, now in Xuzhou, with Cao Bao's temporary rebellion, Lu Bu's power has surpassed Liu Bei's!"
Liu, Guan, and Zhang were a little confused, but they still took the food box over.
After Liu Bei took Guan and Zhang back to the house, Zhang Fei's face looked like pig liver at this moment.
Didn't Fengyi make it with chicken and then deliberately said it was made with locust?
However, the bread in the entire military camp is made from locusts. If it were really replaced with chicken, it would not be able to withstand such consumption.
Cao Jun only needs a large army to suppress the situation, and Lu Bu will be helpless!
Tancheng!
I heard before that Cao Bao, under Tao Qian, defected from Liu Bei and joined Lu Bu. This was really surprising.
"What Mr. Cao said is true, I will unify Xuzhou this time!"
Cao Cao immediately dismounted, followed by Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan, one on the left and one on the right, followed by Xi Zhicai, Li Dian and Le Jin!
Then a group of people slowly walked towards Xiapi City.
"My lord, on this occasion, we shall attack Lu Bu!"
No matter what, it is absolutely impossible for Fengyi to harm him!
Since my brother said this food is edible, he has even made it into pancakes.
In just a few years, the situation has changed so drastically.
Cao Cao couldn't help but grin. After taking a bite of the noodles, he looked at Xi Zhi and then began to discuss the situation in Xuzhou.
This tone was rather sarcastic.
At this time, Cao Cao had become the lord of Yanzhou, and although he was lucky enough to get the position of Xuzhou Mu, this position was not secure at all.
Nowadays, the entire military camp is filled with military rations made from locusts as Xi Yu said, and Cao Cao has nothing to do.
And he has the position of Xuzhou Mu, but he doesn't have many soldiers under his command, and only a few can make plans!
As he spoke, the messenger took two more food boxes from behind and pushed them towards him.
"Forget it, since Liu Bei is willing to open the city and surrender, you all will come with me to Xiapi tomorrow!"
Now that the discussion has begun, Cao Cao calls him Biaozi, but he knows that his attitude at this time is very important.
Cao Bao on the side had already advocated a decisive battle with Cao Jun. Lu Bu glanced at him and seemed to agree.
"Your Majesty, I never thought that Liu Xuande would surrender to Cao Cao!"
"chicken?"
Liu Bei was a little unwilling, but this unwillingness was quietly buried in his heart. He still had a smile on his face.
Maybe there will be a big battle between the two.
With one bite.
Cao Cao had complete control of the entire Yanzhou, with elite soldiers and generals, and a cloud of advisers.
At this glance, a trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes!
In front of the Hulao Pass, Cao Cao was just a young official and a heroic cavalry captain!
And he is also a small county captain.
"Xuande, if I had known that today, at Hulao Pass, you would have followed me all the time. Why would you need to go round and round like this today!"
Cao Cao frowned slightly when he asked Xi Zhicai.
On the other hand, Han Fu couldn't resist Yuan Shao at all.
After everyone entered the Xiapi Yamen Office, Liu Bei invited Cao Cao to take the seat!
"Mengde, please!"
It tastes a bit like chicken.
At this moment, Cao Cao and Liu Bei walked hand in hand towards Xiapi City.
The two people in front of him didn't lie to him!
It's really not much different from chicken, but chewier!
"hiss!"
The next day, Cao Cao led the army from Dongpingcheng to Xiapi.
The man the messenger spoke of was naturally Cao Cao.
In the current situation, Liu Bei would take the initiative to take action. In Xi Zhicai's opinion, it was normal.
Really edible!
At present, he heard that there was no trace of Xi Yu among Cao Jun.
Guan Yu was a little surprised at first, but after seeing that his eldest brother and third brother were both there, he didn't have much doubt.
God helps Cao!
"Is General Guan here?"
After hearing this, Cao Cao didn't say much.
Although there is some gap between the two, the gap is not huge.
After everyone sat down, Liu Bei had a smile on his face.
This is all God’s will!
All in all, everything went very smoothly.
Liu Bei changed his tone and said that he was being polite.
But in fact, the difference between them is like a natural chasm.
But, a few years later!
"Zhicai, what should we do with the current situation?"
Upon hearing this, Cao Cao raised his eyebrows slightly.
But Liu Bei is different!
Although Liu Bei took over Xuzhou's pastoral duties, it has only been for a few months so far!
Liu Bei did not have such a big foundation in Xuzhou and had nothing to rely on.
Seeing Cao Jun begin to take over the entire city defense of Xiapi City, Liu Bei's expression was calm, nothing strange at all.
Xi Zhicai didn't say much.
"Cao Cao would never do such a thing!"
After seeing that it was non-toxic, Liu Bei nodded slightly.
Poisoning, if you think about it carefully, Cao Cao would not do such a thing.
Unless, he really doesn’t want any fame at all!
"Since Meng De sent it, second brother and third brother, I happen to be hungry too!"
