Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

The city gate slowly opened, and Tao Qian led the civil and military officers, stood on both sides, and bowed to greet Liu Yu.

They never imagined that Liu Yu could actually defeat Cao Cao with just his words.

The soldiers on both sides prostrated themselves on the ground, not daring to look up. They were not afraid of Liu Yu, but admired him from the bottom of their hearts.

Many of them were defeated soldiers who had retreated from other places and knew how powerful Cao's army was.

If Xia Pi City was besieged, they had no confidence that they could withstand the attack of Cao's army.

Thinking of Cao Cao’s previous atrocities, they would stand up bravely even if they were afraid.

For the sake of the people of Xuzhou and their parents, wives and children, they must fight to the death without hesitation.

They are not afraid of war or death, but who would give up such a rare peace?

Before Emperor Liu came to Xuzhou, they had never dared to imagine that there would be a chance for peace, but now, with the promotion of Emperor Liu, this opportunity has really appeared.

They were joyful and excited.

Liu Yu did not expect that his request for Cao Cao to withdraw his troops would move this group of people so much.

From this we can see that the shadow left by Cao's army in their hearts was so deep that they were probably unable to imagine it.

Liu Yu calmly asked everyone to stand up, and surrounded by everyone, Liu Yu slowly walked into the city.

Liu Yu was walking in the middle of the road, surrounded by the crowd and moving forward slowly.

Cheers broke out from the crowd from time to time. At this moment, a word suddenly emerged in Liu Yu's mind: hero.

He had seen this word in history books of his previous life.

As a beast of burden, he naturally had no such opportunity.

Now surrounded by the crowd, Liu Yu gradually felt a little overwhelmed.

This feeling is very intoxicating, just like drinking several pounds of strong liquor, wandering wildly between clarity and confusion.

Just when Liu Yu was about to wake up from his drunkenness, he was already being escorted to the main hall.

The hall had been filled with wine and banquets arranged by Tao Qian. Tao Qian invited Liu Yu to take the seat of honor, and everyone took turns toasting Liu Yu.

Since Cao's army retreated, everyone's faces were filled with smiles. There was only one exception, that is Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide.

He thought that there would be a tough battle to fight when he arrived in Xuzhou City, and he was already gearing up to show his skills in the next battle.

Who knew that the development of the matter was completely beyond his expectations. He did not expect that after Uncle Liu gave Cao Mengde a long explanation, Cao Mengde actually withdrew his troops.

Uncle Liu just said that Yanzhou would be taken by Lu Bu. Just by talking, Cao Cao was fooled into retreating immediately.

Strange, so strange.

After entering the hall and seeing the wine and meat on the table, Zhang Fei's mood instantly improved.

This kind of occasion is obviously not suitable for feeling sad about the passing of time, it is only suitable for drinking and eating meat.

Xu Chu was much better than himself in this respect. He had not spoken since he sat down, eating meat and drinking wine without stopping for a moment.

I don’t know if it was the effect of the alcohol or the compliments, but Liu Yu soon became a little confused.

Since coming to this world, Liu Yu has had nearly a hundred drinking sessions, big and small. Although he cannot claim to be able to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, he has never felt dizzy in such a short period of time.

Seeing that Liu Yu was a little drunk, Tao Qian first complimented him before getting to the point.

"Xuzhou has survived thanks to the power of the Emperor's uncle, but Cao Mengde is ambitious and has not given up his intention to destroy Xuzhou. If the Emperor's uncle withdraws his troops from Xuzhou, Cao Mengde will surely attack again, and the people of Xuzhou will suffer miserably."

"We dare to ask Uncle Liu to send someone to stay in Xuzhou temporarily until the situation in Xuzhou stabilizes before leaving."

Tao Qian had a plan in mind. In order to resist Cao Cao, he took advantage of Liu Yu's drunkenness and wanted him to send troops to garrison Xuzhou.

As long as Uncle Liu agrees, Xuzhou will have no worries from now on.

Liu Yu became more and more confused, and it seemed to be getting worse.

Garrison, isn't it just garrison? How can it be so difficult?

"Don't worry, Gong Zu, the matter of stationing troops is easy to handle. I will arrange it tomorrow."

"I can also promise you that as long as this world is still the Han Dynasty, I can guarantee the safety of Xuzhou."

When Tao Qian heard this, his face flushed. He didn't expect that his request would lead to such an unexpected surprise.

Not only did Emperor Liu agree to station troops there, he also guaranteed the safety of Xuzhou in the future.

Such a good thing is hard to find even with a torch.

"Uncle Emperor is a benevolent and righteous man, truly a role model for the Han people. Come, come, come, let us toast Uncle Emperor with a few more glasses of wine."

Zhao Yun picked up a glass of wine and held it in his hand, but he hesitated to raise the glass. Listening to the conversation just now, Zhao Yun frowned slightly. He always felt that something was wrong, but what exactly was it? He couldn't figure it out for a while.

The next day, Liu Yu woke up from his coma, and after hearing his promise from yesterday, his mind became a little clearer.

That's not right. Why do I feel like this old guy Tao Gongzu is trying to trick me? If it's true as Zhao Yun said, and I become Tao Qian's mercenary, I will not only have to send someone to guard the gate for him, but also ensure his absolute safety.

What made him even more speechless was that he admitted it in front of so many people.

If I go back on my word, I will surely be laughed at by the whole world.

"Zilong, since you found something wrong, why didn't you remind me at that time?"

Zhao Yun was stunned. I wanted to remind you, but you looked so complacent yesterday. I’m afraid you wouldn’t agree even if I gave you advice.

Looking at the expression on Zhao Yun's face, Liu Yu tried hard to recall. After thinking for a long time, he finally remembered some scenes. It's not Zhao Yun's fault. Even if he wanted to persuade himself, he probably couldn't get in.

All in all, I was just immersed in flattery and couldn't extricate myself.

Liu Yu thought he was a man with strong self-control, but who would have thought that when faced with such a situation, he couldn't control himself.

There are bad people among the crowd! They will first find your weak spot and then attack your weakness crazily.

If I continue to do this, it won't be long before I am completely lost in fantasy.

"Zilong, I just recalled some fragments. It's really not your fault. I was careless."

Zhao Yun saluted and said, "Uncle, you are too polite. The most difficult issue right now is the defense of Xuzhou City. Who do you plan to station here?"

Liu Yu scratched his head. To be honest, he didn't have any candidate in mind.

Now that Yuzhou has just been pacified and a lot of work needs to be done, it is the time to recruit people. How could there be an idle general coming to Xuzhou to serve?

"We need to think about this matter carefully. Call Yide and Boping over here so we can discuss it."
