Chapter 711 Take It Up Like a Man
Everyone knew that Liu Bei had fled Xu Du, but they were not sure that they had been betrayed.
When Dong Cheng said that in order to escape, Liu Bei did not hesitate to entrust their plans to Cao Cao, everyone was angry.
"I had known for a long time that Liu Xuande was not a good person." Wu Shuo gritted his teeth and said, "Poor Mr. Dong still expects him to save the big man."
"I met someone wrong." Dong Cheng said: "It is rumored that Liu Xuande is a kind elder in the world, but he didn't expect that he was such a person. For his own selfish interests, he betrayed us all."
"Now is not the time to talk about Liu Xuande." The prince said, "The most important thing is that Cao Cao already knows our plans. Now whoever attacks first will be the best, or discuss how to deal with Cao Cao."
"How many troops can General Wang mobilize in Xudu?" Dong Cheng asked.
"Not only more than three hundred people." The prince said in a submission: "All my soldiers are outside Xudu, and it will take more than ten days to mobilize them to Xudu."
"Three hundred people..." Dong Chengsuo frowned and said, "I can only wait to mobilize one or two hundred people. Including the troops we all call, even a thousand people are not enough..."
"Cao Cao's Tiger Guards are in Xudu, how could a thousand people be their opponent?" The prince said, "Unless he quietly entered the Cao family..."
As the few people were talking, a guard knocked open the door.
The guard stumbled into the house and shouted to Dong Cheng and others: "No, Xu Chu led his troops to kill him!"
Dong Cheng and others were stunned and ran to the door.
Before they arrived outside the door, they heard a shout of killing.
As soon as they arrived at the door, Dong Cheng and others saw Xu Chu and a group of tiger guards rushing over.
"General Xu, what's going on?" Dong Cheng pretended not to know what happened and asked Xu Chu.
Along the way, the guards of Dong Cheng's family were uniformed by the Tiger Guards led by Xu Chu.
He slashed several guards with his own hands, and some blood stains were stained on Xu Chu's armor.
"Is it true that General Dong did? Don't you know?" Xu Chu shouted to the Tiger Guard behind him: "Take Dong Cheng and others down, and no one is allowed to leave!"
"Xu Chu, you are so bold!" Prince Fu was also the general who led the troops. Seeing that Xu Chu was about to take someone, he stepped forward and drew out his long sword.
Before he could lift the sword flat, Xu Chu had already stepped forward and beaten his chest in a circle.
After being punched by Xu Chu, Prince Fu felt stuffy in his chest and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
He was staggering back, and Xu Chu had already snatched his weapons and shouted to the Tiger Guards: "What are you still standing there? Take them all!"
Several tiger guards stepped forward and grabbed Dong Cheng and others one by one.
Being stopped by the Tiger Guards, Dong Cheng shouted to Xu Chu: "Xu Zhongkang, what exactly do you want to do?"
"When I met Mr. Cao, General Dong would know what I was doing." Xu Chu waved his hand: "Take them away!"
After leaving Dong Cheng's residence, Xu Chu also ordered a Tiger Guard officer: "All anyone captured here will be searched!"
The officer retreated.
Wu Shuo shouted: "Xu Chu, why do you want to copy our home?"
Xu Chu glared at him, and regardless of how many people shouted, he carried them towards the Cao family.
Several people shouted endlessly along the way, attracting many people to watch.
Xu Chu shouted: "We will capture the thief, and all the irrelevant people will retreat, otherwise there will be no mercy to kill!"
As soon as he shouted, the onlookers retreated one by one, pointing fingers and talking about Dong Cheng and others.
Cao Cao had been waiting in the front hall for a long time.
When he arrived at the Cao family, Xu Chu took Dong Cheng and others into the front hall.
"Duke Cao, Dong Cheng and others are here." Xu Chu said to Cao Cao with his fists.
Looking at Dong Cheng and others tied up, Cao Cao asked Cao Shu: "Zirong, what do you think should be dealt with?"
"Fake a false saint's intention, trying to murder the loyal and good-natured." Cao Shu said: "It is more appropriate to dismember the five horses!"
"Then let's follow Zi Rong!" Cao Cao replied.
"Cao Zirong, why do you say that we falsely spread the holy intention?" Dong Cheng yelled at Cao Shuo.
"Why?" Cao Shuo smiled slightly, walked to Dong Cheng and others, and asked them: "Have you ever seen a belt of Your Majesty?"
I had known that Liu Bei had betrayed them, so Dong Cheng and others didn't find it strange.
He also thought Cao Shu had never seen that belt, and Dong Cheng said in a loud voice: "We don't know what you are talking about."
Cao Shu had a calm smile on his face, but Cao Cao picked up the belt with a cold face and asked Dong Cheng and others: "You should recognize this belt?"
Seeing the belt, Dong Cheng and others immediately became depressed.
Dong Cheng couldn't understand why he hid his white belt and fell into Cao Cao's hands.
Back to Cao Cao, Cao Shu took the belt, took out the edict from it, and asked Dong Cheng and others: "This edict should not be done by His Majesty, right?"
"The Cao thief is doing something wrong. We will eliminate the thief on behalf of Your Majesty. Is there anything wrong with it?" Knowing that he could not hide it, Dong Cheng glared at his eyes and simply made up his mind and scolded Cao Cao.
"Enough!" Cao Shu shouted and said coldly to Dong Cheng: "Others say such words may be because they have some misunderstandings with their father. And if you, Dong Cheng, say such words, don't you think you are bullying the people in the world?"
Dong Cheng's face turned pale. He was about to speak back, but Cao Shu continued, "I was right when you were the general of Niu Fu's army back then, right? Dong Zhuo acted against the enemy, first deposed the young emperor, and then sent Li Ru to murder the late emperor. Where were you at that time?"
After Cao Shu asked this, Dong Cheng was speechless and didn't know what to say.
"Your Majesty is a rebellious son, just because Your Majesty is a little more tolerant of you and accepts your daughter as a concubine, you dare to falsely spread the holy intentions and attempt to murder the heroes!" Cao Shu said: "What has my father done for the Han Dynasty over the years? It is obvious to all the people in the world. If my father is a rebel, how many heroes will be willing to join the Cao family?"
Cao Shu's words made Dong Cheng speechless.
Staring at Dong Cheng, Cao Shu said again: "Dong Zhuo was in trouble with Luoyang, and his father summoned the fourteen princes to attack him. What was General Dong doing?"
"I..." Dong Cheng opened his mouth, but said nothing.
He was following Niu Fu and fighting the army heading to Luoyang.
Judging from the past, Cao Cao did make countless contributions to the Han Dynasty, but he did many evil things that were enemies with the Han Dynasty.
"General Dong!" Cao Shuo approached Dong Cheng's ear and said to him: "I know this matter has nothing to do with Your Majesty. If you have a little bit of a minister, take this matter like a man, don't implicate Your Majesty."
Staring at Cao Shu, Dong Cheng's forehead was covered with cold sweat.
Wu Shuo and others lowered their heads one by one, not knowing what to say.
After all, Cao Shu was talking about the truth, and they couldn't find a reason to speak if they wanted to argue.
"I admit it!" Dong Cheng finally said: "It's all done by me!"
