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

Xia Pi City, meeting hall.

Zhang Fei sat in the middle, looking at the information in his hand and laughing.

"Uncle Liu is very wise. With just one move of fire attack, he destroyed half of Yuan Shu's troops. Who has ever seen such a battle? What a pity, what a pity, what a pity that uncle did not let me go with him, otherwise I could have witnessed this grand occasion."

Zhang Fei and all the civil and military officials of Xuzhou were there. After hearing what Zhang Fei said, they couldn't help but praise him: "Uncle Huang is a master of military tactics. Not to mention that he is rare in the world, even if you look through all the history books, few people can match him."

"Yes, Uncle Liu is truly a genius. With Uncle Liu here, Xuzhou will have nothing to worry about."

Everyone was talking about it, and the atmosphere was very heated for a while.

"How can such a happy event be without wine? Come on, quickly set up the banquet. I will not leave until I am drunk with you all."

As soon as Zhang Fei said this, the originally lively scene suddenly became silent.

It is no longer a secret in today's Xia Pi City that Zhang Fei is an alcoholic.

It's not just that you're an alcoholic, but the key is that you have a bad drinking behavior. When you're drunk, you talk nonsense and beat and scold soldiers at will.

Although he was very respectful to the scholars when he was drunk, and did not say anything disrespectful except bragging, it was unpleasant to watch him beating and scolding the soldiers.

When Emperor Liu Huangshu left Xia Pi City, he earnestly warned Zhang Fei not to drink alcohol, as it would cause trouble for him. Chen Deng and Sun Qian were present at the time.

The two looked at each other, and Chen Deng began to persuade: "General Zhang, although Emperor Liu won a great victory, there is Yuan Shu in the south and Cao Cao in the north. The crisis in Xuzhou has not been completely resolved. It is not the time to drink now. General Zhang should be patient for a while. It will not be too late to drink after the crisis in Xuzhou is truly resolved."

"Yuanlong, you have exaggerated the situation in Xuzhou. I have been observing the military situation these days. Now that Yuan Shu has just been defeated, he is no longer able to launch an attack.

There are all kinds of signs that Cao Cao's soldiers are exhausted. After two battles, they have no desire to fight anymore. It won't be long before they withdraw from Xuzhou due to lack of food and grass. Xuzhou may seem to be in crisis, but in fact, it is no longer in danger. "

Zhang Fei looked around. No one present could understand the war as well as he did. Not to mention these people, even in the entire Xuzhou, he was only inferior to Uncle Liu.

Chen Deng listened to what he said and it made a lot of sense. For a moment he didn't know how to refute it.

At this time, Sun Qian took over the conversation and said, "General Zhang, don't forget that when Liu Huangshu left Xiapi City, he warned you not to drink. If you make mistakes because of drinking, how will you explain to Liu Huangshu?"

When Zhang Fei heard the words "Uncle Liu", the drunkenness he had been feeling instantly disappeared a little. Apart from anything else, he felt a little uneasy when he thought of the words of warning Uncle Liu had given him that day.

These days, since Uncle Liu left, he had been in Xia Pi City, wanting to drink every day, but he relied on his supreme endurance to force himself to endure it.

But after enduring for such a long time, after hearing the news of Liu Yu's victory, the addiction to alcohol in his heart was like the flooding of the Yangtze River, and it was out of control.

Zhang Fei lowered his head slightly, his eyes rolling around.

"Uncle Liu didn't allow me to drink because he was afraid that I would miss out on Xuzhou's affairs. But now I have finished handling Xuzhou's military affairs, and Xia Pi City is peaceful. Even if I wanted to miss out, I can't."

After saying this, Zhang Fei seemed to have found a reason to drink, and his interest, which had just declined, surged up again.

"Someone, serve the food and drinks."

"General Zhang, there was another reason why Emperor Liu didn't allow you to drink that day. Have you forgotten?"

Zhang Fei laughed.

"Gongyou, how could I forget this? Now the scouts report that everything is normal. A few days ago, Lu Bu wrote to me, saying that he wanted to come to Xiapi City for a visit. In my opinion, after arriving in Xuzhou, no matter who it is, they must obey the orders of the emperor's uncle. Otherwise, I will poke a few transparent holes in him with my Zhangba Snake Spear."

Talking about this matter, Zhang Fei was very happy. It was always a pleasure to make Lu Bu lower his proud head.

"General Zhang, ..."

Sun Qian wanted to persuade him again, but heard Zhang Fei said impatiently: "Don't worry, Gongyou, I'll take care of everything."

Seeing that Zhang Fei had already placed wine and meat on the table, Sun Qian knew that it was no longer realistic to persuade Zhang Fei to drink.

He sighed slightly in his heart and could only hope that nothing would happen in Xia Pi City.

Zhang Fei picked up a glass of wine and gulped down two cups. As the wine went down his throat, Zhang Fei was instantly intoxicated by the taste. When he wanted to pick up the glass again and take a big gulp of wine, he found that everyone was staring at him with some questioning looks in their eyes.

When Zhang Fei saw the wine, he became a little unrestrained. After a while, he came to his senses and just drank, as if the reason for drinking had not yet been explained.

He coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment, then picked up a glass of wine and raised it in the air.

"Uncle Liu used his clever tactics to defeat Yuan Shu. This cup of wine is for Uncle Liu's congratulations."

"Congratulations to the Emperor's uncle."

"Congratulations, my lord."

……

……

Endless cheers of celebration rang out in the hall, and after the ceremony, everyone raised their glasses and began to drink.

As the banquet progressed, the atmosphere gradually became more lively.

No one noticed that in a corner of the banquet, a pair of eyes were staring at Zhang Fei who was sitting at the top.

In his eyes, there was resentment, fear, hatred, and hope...

Various emotions intertwined together, making his eyes very complicated.

In front of him, the wine glass was empty, not even a drop of wine was poured in it.

It's not that he doesn't like drinking, but he knows that at this moment he must stay sober no matter what. Only in this way can he avoid making any mistakes in the next action.

Cao Bao, formerly the Prime Minister of Xia Pi, was nearly beheaded by Zhang Fei because of his disagreements with Zhang Fei after Zhang Fei stationed there. If it were not for some generals under Tao Qian who desperately pleaded for him, he would probably have been beheaded long ago.

This incident also made Cao Bao see clearly the current relationships in Xia Pi City. The talk of treating everyone equally and giving equal importance to existing and new employees was simply a joke.

Since Tao Qian's death, a group of soldiers who were originally loyal to Tao Qian have been more or less alienated.

Zhang Fei's disgust towards him was fully revealed on his face. Cao Bao had reason to believe that if he continued to stay here, he would die at the hands of Zhang Fei for an inexplicable reason in the near future.

Just when he was worrying about what to do, Cao Cao sent someone to contact him.

The visitor seemed to be a scholar, and as soon as they met, he showed concern for Cao Bao's situation.

It is obvious that Cao Cao left scouts in Xia Pi City and knew everything that happened in Xia Pi City.

The conditions they proposed were very tempting. As long as he could act according to his plan, Cao Cao would definitely entrust him with important tasks in the near future.

Cao Bao did not say that he was disgusted with Cao Cao's behavior in Xuzhou. In times of chaos, acts such as massacre in a city, although uncommon, were not rare.

Not to mention the King of Chu who was known for his ferocity, didn’t even Emperor Gaozu’s uncle, who appeared as an elder, lead a massacre in the city?

Today, all these princes have, to a greater or lesser extent, participated in or condoned this kind of behavior.

The reasons for the massacre were very complicated, including lack of food and fodder, intimidation to the enemy, etc.

After hearing the visitor's promise, Cao Bao agreed to his plan without thinking for long.

Seeing that Zhang Fei was already a little drunk but was still inviting everyone to drink, Cao Bao knew that today's banquet would last for a long time.

While no one was paying attention, he stood up quietly, walked to the gate of the mansion, mounted his war horse and galloped towards the city gate.
