Xuyi, meeting hall.

Yuan Shu has been very angry ever since Uncle Liu burned most of his troops. This Uncle Liu was too treacherous. Even though he was extremely careful, he still fell into his trap. It was impossible to guard against him!

Thinking of the soldiers who died tragically in the fire, the honey water in the cup instantly lost its taste.

At this moment, someone came to report from outside the door.

"My lord, Lu Bu sent someone to deliver a letter."

"Lü Bu?" Yuan Shu was puzzled. Didn't he already surrender to Emperor Liu? Why did he send a letter to him?

"Did the visitor tell you what the matter is?" Thinking of what Lu Bu had done, Yuan Shu felt a little depressed.

"It is a request to the Lord to attack Uncle Liu from both north and south."

This news instantly perked up Yuan Shu.

"Pass it in."

When the visitor walked into Yuan Shu's meeting room and handed him the letter written by Lu Bu, Yuan Shu read the letter and then understood what had just happened in Xuzhou.

Xia Pi City has been occupied by Lu Bu. Now he has asked me to attack Liu Bei from the north and south and capture Huaiyang. If successful, the two of them will divide the land of Huaiyang equally.

Lu Bu is a fierce tiger, and his nature is hard to change. No matter whose army he serves, there will always be some trouble.

Fortunately, I had extraordinary insight and saw through Lu Bu's intention at a glance, and decisively drove him out of my territory. Otherwise, I don't know what kind of trouble Lu Bu would have caused.

Lu Bu was able to capture Xia Pi City without much effort. He is really enviable.

Uncle Liu was full of tricks, but there were times when he was schemed against. Thinking of this, Yuan Shu couldn't help but feel a little excited.

"Go back and tell Lu Fengxian that I agree to this condition. I will lead the troops to the city of Huaiyang in ten days as agreed. I also hope that Fengxian will not break his promise."

"Marquis Wen is a contemporary hero and will definitely not break his promise to Lord Yuan. Lord Yuan, please rest assured."

Yuan Shu waved his hand impatiently, indicating that he could leave.

Lu Bu will not break his promise. Are you sure you are not here to make fun of me?

If I were to believe in Lu Bu's credit, I would be crazy.

Lu Bu was willing to join forces with him because they had a common enemy. Before defeating Liu Huangshu, their interests were completely consistent.

Interests are the driving force behind all of this. In the face of interests, credit is worthless.

In the Yuan family, education is not just about teaching poetry and classics, but also about how to behave in society. Yuan Shu understood this principle very early on.

Ten days later, Yuan Shu brought his soldiers to the city of Huaiyang as agreed.

At this time, Lu Bu was wearing armor and also deployed his troops outside Huaiyang City. When the two met, he first gave a few hypocritical flatteries before getting to the point.

"Marquis Wen, the four gates of Huaiyang City are closed, and there is no one on the city wall. Could this be a trick?"

Thinking of Liu Yu's methods, Yuan Shu felt a little worried.

"Don't worry, Lord Yuan. There are only 10,000 people in Huaiyang City right now. The soldiers under our command are several times more than them. How can they possibly win? The order to attack the city has been issued. No matter how long it takes, Huaiyang City will be ours."

"In that case, please ask Lord Wen to lead the troops to attack."

Upon hearing this, Lu Bu sneered in his heart. Yuan Shu was also a local lord, and he was frightened after being defeated by Uncle Liu many times.

Since you are so scared, I will let you see my fighting power.

"Mr. Yuan, please stay here for now and watch me take over this city. Come, follow me to attack the city."

Lu Bu rode on his Red Hare and arrived at the foot of Huaiyang City first, and ordered people to shout at the city gate.

But after shouting for a long time, no one responded. Looking back at Yuan Shu's half-smile, Lu Bu felt a little embarrassed. He waved his hand and gave orders.

"Siege the city."

The soldiers rushed forward with siege equipment. To Lu Bu's surprise, the soldiers did not encounter any attack during this distance and they arrived at the city of Huaiyang very smoothly.

Then they successfully climbed up the city wall and found that there was no one on it.

Someone attacked the city gate, and it was also easily opened.

In a very short time, the soldiers took a general look at Huaiyang City and came back to report to Lu Bu.

"Reporting to Lord Wen, it is an empty city."

"Lord Yuan, it's an empty city." Lu Bu turned to look at Yuan Shu with a smile on his face.

There was a flash of sarcasm in his smile. "An empty city has frightened you so much. If you say you don't go, you will be laughed at by all the heroes in the world."

Presumably, Uncle Liu was afraid of the two men's military strength, so he led his men out of Huaiyang City early.

Although Lu Bu did not expect this result, he was not surprised. If Liu Yu had continued to hold on to the city and refused to leave, all 10,000 soldiers would have been lost in a short time.

"Uncle Liu really understood the situation. Seeing that he was no match for the enemy, he took the initiative to withdraw from Huaiyang City."

Yuan Shu laughed loudly. Although he did not kill Liu Yu's soldiers, he was still excited to scare Liu Yu away.

"Enter the city."

The two men led their soldiers into the city, and the originally empty Huaiyang City was soon crowded.

Although they had not experienced any fighting, the soldiers were very tired after marching for days, so they started to make a fire and cook.

After a while, a banquet was set in front of Yuan Shu and Lu Bu.

They drank a few glasses of wine, and Lu Bu had a smile on his face.

"Mr. Yuan, the world has been saying that Uncle Liu is very wise and resourceful. In my opinion, he is also very good at judging the situation. When our two armies joined forces, he had already fled before we even started."

Everyone heard the sarcasm in Lu Bu's words, and the expressions on their faces suddenly became complicated.

A hint of approval flashed in Zhang Liao's eyes. Seeing that Huaiyang was unable to be defended, Uncle Liu decisively gave up. This decisiveness was beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Ji Ling had witnessed Uncle Liu's methods many times, and he had a vague feeling that this matter would not be so simple.

"Marquis Wen, I have fought with Uncle Liu many times. Based on my understanding of him, it is definitely not his style for him to withdraw from Huaiyang without making a fuss."

"What do you mean, General Ji?"

"I suspect that Emperor Liu has not withdrawn from Xuzhou, but is still planning other things in Xuzhou."

"Haha." Lu Bu laughed loudly, and the sound of laughter suddenly rang out in the hall, "General Ji must have been frightened by Uncle Liu. He has been suspicious since entering Huaiyang City. Just now, the scouts sent news that Uncle Liu has led a large group of troops to Yuzhou.

Fortunately, he walked quickly, otherwise I would not show any mercy with my Red Hare and my Fang Tian Hua Ji in my hand. "

A hint of arrogance flashed across Lu Bu's face. You, Ji Ling, are afraid of Uncle Liu, but I am not. His unparalleled martial arts and powerful combat power are his confidence.

At this moment, a soldier ran in from outside the door, shouting in a terrified voice: "Fire, fire,..., big fire."
