Three Kingdoms: Bandit Cao, let go of that woman!

Chapter 107 Xuzhou, Liu Bei's plot
Yuan Xi on the other side was also unable to escape, and Dian Wei followed closely behind, hitting him hard in the back of the heart.

Yuan Xi spat out a mouthful of blood, then rolled on the ground, struggled a few times and then stopped moving.

Cao Peng galloped forward, frowning, "Old Dian, you are too serious! This guy is a meat pig worth a thousand taels of gold. If you beat him to death, how can I blackmail Yuan Shao?"

Dian Wei: ...

On the other side, Zhang Liao Zang Ba also led his troops to sweep away the Yuan Jun on both sides, and returned to the cavalry team.

Although the reinforcement team was huge this time, Cao Peng played a very classic battle of winning more with less.

Presumably after the news came out, Cao Peng's reputation could shake Hebei.

"Tie these two guys up to me, and find someone to treat the half-dead..."

While explaining, Cao Peng led the army forward without slowing down at all. In an instant, he had already left the border of Qingzhou and joined the tens of thousands of troops he stayed behind.

"What's next?" Dian Wei asked.

Cao Peng glanced at the windy and sandy road behind him, and pointed to the direction to go back, "Of course it's back to Xuzhou."

Leading such a huge army, of course he had to find a city to station in. His original plan was to go to Xuzhou.

I heard that Cao Peng plans to go to Xuzhou to be stationed.

Zhang Liao and Zang Ba seemed a little unhappy.

When Cao Peng asked, it turned out that what they were disgusted with was the current governor of Xuzhou, Che Zhou.

"When that guy became the governor of Xuzhou, he was really a villain. That kind of arrogant look is really annoying." Zhang Liao said about this person, even his eyes showed disgust.

Because Zhang Liao, Zang Ba and others had just surrendered to Cao Cao at that time, and Che Zhou had just been appointed as the governor of Xuzhou by Cao Cao.

As the people who originally occupied Xuzhou, they had to do some alternating work for Che Zhou.

But Che Zhou is so arrogant, if Zhang Liao and others hadn't surrendered just now and chose to swallow their anger, otherwise Che Zhou would have been severely beaten by the eight masters.

Dian Wei patted the two men's shoulders, and said with relief: "It's just a governor who accepted his fate by giving the lord a woman by being intimidating. Why should you be serious with him if you don't?"

That being said.

Sure enough, Zhang Liao and Zang Ba still couldn't swallow this breath.

Cao Peng smiled and said, "Don't worry, Che Zhou's death is approaching."

Everyone looked at Cao Peng suspiciously, not knowing why he said that.

Cao Peng put his finger on his mouth pretending to be mysterious, "The secret must not be revealed, don't forget that I am the best prophet!"

Everyone believed it a little bit. Cao Peng predicted the enemy first, and he was exhaustive, and he never made a mistake.

It is not for nothing that he calls himself a prophet.

……

Just when Cao Peng and others had just left the border at the junction of Qing and Xu, they were planning to return to Xuzhou.

Liu Bei had killed Yuan Shu, took in the remnants of Yuan Shu's army, and handed over their weapons.

At this time, the direction of the march was not to meet Cao Peng, but to go straight to Xuzhou.

Not long ago, Liu Bei had a discussion with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

Now, because he chased and killed Yuan Shu, he chased and killed Yuan Shu in the direction of Xuzhou, while Cao Peng and Yuan Jun fought in the direction of Qingzhou.

In other words, the current Liu Bei must be able to enter Xuzhou faster than Cao Peng.

As early as when he recommended himself to Cao Cao to lead troops to attack Yuan Shu, his idea was to kill Chezhou and occupy Xuzhou.

But he didn't expect that a Cao Peng would appear out of the sky, hindering his plan.

Now, the opportunity came again. Although the risk was high, Liu Bei planned to give it a try.

He, Liu Bei, is not a person who has lived under others for a long time. This is the reason why he seeks wealth and wealth.

In order to hunt down Yuan Shu, Cao Peng allotted him cavalry, so they were very fast.

When we are about to arrive in Xuzhou.

Guan Yudan narrowed his phoenix eyes, and suddenly asked: "Brother, Xuzhou City is easy to defend and difficult to attack. How can we succeed with this small force?"

Liu Bei smiled lightly after hearing this.

Although his second younger brother is quite proficient in the art of war and strategy, as an honest gentleman, his thinking is a bit short-sighted.

Seeing Liu Bei laughing, Guan Yu knew that his elder brother must have some crooked ideas again.

Just like he is good at using interpersonal morality as a sharp blade, which no one can do except him.

After Liu Bei laughed a few times, he finally explained his confusion: "Second brother, we are wearing Cao Jun's clothes now. When we arrived in Xuzhou, we only said that we had returned to the city under the order of General Cao Peng. How dare the chariot not open the door?" ?”

The doubts in my heart were finally resolved.

But Guan Yu only wanted to say two words at the moment, damn it!
It's not that he couldn't think of such a strategy, but that this kind of thing is completely lower than anyone else's lower limit.

Although there are sayings in the art of war, soldiers never tire of deceit.

But the arrogant Guan Erye just doesn't bother to use this kind of trick.

"Second brother, why are you still so preoccupied?" Liu Bei asked after noticing Guan Yu's abnormality.

Guan Yu hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, brother, maybe I was a little tired, so I was distracted for a while."

His cover-up did not make Liu Bei suspicious.

But Guan Yu secretly sighed in his heart.

At the beginning, he never had any thoughts about Liu Bei's "benevolence and righteousness" tricks.

It all started when Xu Tian hunted and Liu Bei prevented him from killing Cao Cao.

Later, the matter of Yi Dai Zhao was revealed, and Liu Bei stayed out of the matter. In Guan Yu's view, these behaviors were very unmanly.

When Guan Yu was worried, the army had already arrived at the city of Xuzhou.

The guard on the city immediately asked loudly, "Who is here?"

Liu Bei galloped out and responded loudly: "We are under Cao Peng, the general of the Northern Expedition, please open the city gate!"

Hearing Cao Peng's name, the guard of the minister immediately went to report to Che Zhou, the governor.

Hearing this, Che Zhou's face changed drastically, "General Cao Peng is here, so I have to go out to meet him in person."

The lieutenant beside him asked, "Why does the general do this?"

Che Zhou said: "This Cao Peng is the most trusted person of the prime minister, but he must not be neglected."

He put on his armor and mounted his horse, and led a thousand soldiers out of the city.

Even Liu Bei didn't expect that Che Zhou would go out of the city in person, and he immediately muttered to Guan Yu next to him, "Yun Chang, it's up to you later."

After a while, Che Zhou has arrived in front of him.

Not seeing Cao Peng, he immediately asked, "Where is General Cao?"

Liu Bei immediately stepped forward with a smile on his face: "General Cao led the army behind, and we were sent by him to go to Xuzhou first."

Che Zhou didn't doubt that he was there, but he didn't see Cao Peng, so his attitude became a bit colder: "If that's the case, then please!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around, and couldn't help cursing bad luck in his heart, Cao Peng's absence made it a waste of time for him to make a trip.
