Zhang Xiu, the Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

At this time, Mi Zhu continued: "Chen Chu, as a general, has 700,000 male soldiers, and Cao Cao has embarrassed him several times, and has been defeated by the Northern Army many times. Therefore, Chen Chu will definitely help us, and as soon as the Northern Army arrives, this doom will be solved!"

Tao Qian kept nodding, but then showed a worried look, "Although Zizhong's strategy is good, I have no contact with the general in the past, will the general really help us?"

Mi Zhu thought for a moment, frowned slightly and replied: "This matter is also beneficial to him, I believe he should send troops to come."

At this time, Chen Deng raised an objection, "Although what Zizhong said is reasonable, it has missed one issue. "

Oh?" Mi Zhu looked surprised.

Chen Deng continued: "According to normal times, the general will indeed send troops to come, but this time is different from the past, although the general is strong, his main force is involved in Guanzhong and Northern Xinjiang, and the troops who stayed in Bingzhou have suffered heavy losses in the previous battle, so it is difficult for the general to send troops to rescue Xuzhou!"

"According to what Yuanlong said, is there nothing we can do?" Tao Qian asked anxiously.

Chen Deng replied: "What I said just now is just speculation, maybe the general will still send troops, but we can't only put our hope on the family of the Northern Army

, we must ask for help from all the forces that may come to support!" Mi Zhu nodded and agreed: "What Yuan Long said is extremely true, we must ask for help from all the forces that may come to the rescue!" and then asked for orders: "I am willing to go to Bingzhou and try my best to persuade the general to send troops to rescue!"

Tao Qian nodded happily and said, "Just ask Zizhong!"

At this time, Chen Deng also asked for help: "I have heard that Yuan Shao IV and the Third Duke have an outstanding reputation, and I will not see death without help, so I am willing to go to Luoyang to ask Yuan Shao to send troops to rescue!"

At this moment, Tao Qian is already like an ant on a hot pot, where is there a negative truth.

Subsequently, Tao Qian personally wrote two letters, handed them to Mi Zhu and Chen Deng respectively, and then ordered the two to go to Bingzhou and Luoyang respectively.

Before the two left, Tao Qian advised: "No matter whether the thing can be done or not, I hope to return as soon as possible!"

The two solemnly agreed, and then got on the horse and left the city.

Because Cao Cao did not besiege Xuzhou City, Mi Zhu and Chen Deng jumped out of the encirclement of Cao's army after half an hour. Then the two parted ways, one west and one north.

Since Liu Bei took refuge in Yuan Shao, he has not been very proud. Often a person drinks sullenly, sighing and sighing.

After Yuan Shao regained Jizhou, he no longer dared to take Jizhou's defense lightly, so he sent an additional 50,000 troops to Jizhou, including Liu Bei and his 10,000 men.

On this day, Liu Bei was training the army he brought out in the field. In the training of the army, Liu Bei did not dare to slack off at all.

Liu Bei, a 10,000-strong soldier, kept yelling on the school field, performing various fighting moves, his morale was very high, and his momentum was very much like an elite soldier.

Just when Liu Bei was training the army, Guo Tu, who was in charge of various affairs in Jizhou, sent someone to ask him to discuss matters.

Liu Bei couldn't help but feel a little surprised, because Guo Tu rarely called generals to discuss matters, and even if there was something, he would directly send someone to give an order.

Could it be that something is going on? Liu Bei couldn't help but guess.

In the speculation, Liu Bei came to the Taishou Mansion in Jizhou.

As soon as he arrived in the lobby, Liu Bei couldn't help but be startled. It turned out that the commanders of all the armies in Jizhou came.

As soon as Liu Bei came in, Guo Tu said: "Xuande is here, I'll send you

!" Liu Bei hurriedly pleaded: "I'm here, please forgive me!" Guo Tu smiled: "It's

okay." Now that everyone is here, I'm going to get down to business.

At this time, Liu Bei had already stood in the train.

"This morning, the lord came to be in a hurry, Cao Cao is attacking Xuzhou urgently, and the lord ordered me to send an army from Jizhou to support Xuzhou!"

As soon as Guo Tu's words fell, everyone began to discuss.

Liu Bei thought in his heart: This is really an opportunity, maybe he can take this opportunity to get rid of Yuan Shao and lay a world of his own. At this thought, Liu Bei couldn't help but feel excited.

Liu Bei wanted to ask for his life, and then at this moment, all the generals took a step ahead of him and asked for his life to lead the army. Liu Bei immediately asked for his life, but Liu Bei's heart couldn't help but sink, and he didn't know if he could get his wish.

Guo Tu looked at the enthusiastic crowd and said with a smile: "You are so enthusiastic, I think the main guild is very pleased! But I haven't finished speaking just now, the lord still has an order, and the lord only plans to send an army of 10,000 people to deal with the matter!"

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, and then they retreated one after another and retreated to the side. Just kidding, Cao Cao had an army of 150,000 in Xuzhou, and he only sent 10,000 people to die

! Guo Tu was not surprised to see this, this is human nature!

However, not everyone retreated, and there was another person still standing in the hall, and this person was none other than Liu Bei.

Guo Tu couldn't help but said happily: "I didn't expect Xuande to be so heroic! Then Xuande will lead 10,000 soldiers to Xuzhou!"

Hearing this, Liu Bei suddenly came back to his senses, with a surprised look on his face. It turned out that Liu Bei lost his mind just now, he was calculating the gains and losses, and he didn't notice the reactions of the other generals, so that he was highlighted.

Liu Bei hesitated for a moment, and finally bowed down on one knee to receive the order. Liu Bei is not hot-headed, he is deliberate, although Xuzhou is dangerous, there is no chance.

Then Liu Bei returned to the barracks, and the deputy general Jiang Yue hurriedly greeted him and asked, "General, what is the matter with General Guo Tuzhao?" Jiang Yue was one of Liu Bei's henchmen, he originally belonged to the Northern Army, and was later handed over to Liu Bei by Chen Chu and 5,000 soldiers. There is also a subordinate general next to Jiang Yue, he is also Liu Bei's henchman, named Liu Yan, Liu Bei's fellow villager, and it is said that the two still have some blood relationship.

Hearing Jiang Yue's inquiry, Liu Bei briefly explained what he had just discussed.

Jiang Yue frowned tightly and said, "Cao Cao raised 150,000 troops, and the fierce generals under his command are like clouds, won't I go to the mouth of a sheep?"

Liu Yan on the side nodded, obviously worried.

Liu Bei sat down on the main seat, sighed, and said: "I don't know the danger of this trip, but I have no choice! As a member of the Han family, I am determined to support the Han family, but I have no strength, although this time to send troops to Xuzhou is dangerous, but it is a good opportunity for me Liu Bei to rise! I must take this risk!" Jiang

Yue and Liu Yan looked at each other and couldn't help but sigh.

The next day, Liu Bei ordered all his men and horses to rush south from Jizhou to Xuzhou.

Liu Bei's mood was uneasy, he didn't know whether Xuzhou was his burial place or the starting point of his rise.

On the fourth day before Liu Bei led his army to set off, Mi Zhu, an envoy sent by Tao Qian, also successfully arrived in Bingzhou and met Chen Chu.

When the dusty Mi Zhu saw Chen Chu, he immediately knelt down and said urgently: "General, please save Xuzhou!" Chen Chu

hurriedly got down and helped Mi Zhu up, and said gently: "Mr. doesn't have to be like this, what's going on?" In fact, Chen Chu has long known about Xuzhou, and Chen Chu's intelligence work is only the best in this era, and Chen Chu asked this on purpose.

Mi Zhu raised his head and was about to speak, but he was stunned for a moment. It turned out that it was only at this time that he saw Chen Chu's appearance clearly, and Chen Chu's appearance was much younger than he imagined.

After being stunned for a moment, Mi Zhu hurriedly hugged his fist at Chen Chu and said: "General, Cao Cao falsely accused my lord of killing his father, so he led a large army to raise troops to ask for the crime, and where he passed, the city was destroyed and the people were killed! I also hope that the general will have mercy on the innocent people and send troops to fight the thieves!" Chen Chu thought for a moment

and said: "Tao Yuanjun is a humble person, and he will definitely not do anything to kill his father and brother! Cao Cao is really too much to use his sword soldiers without asking for reason!"

Chen Chu sat down on the main seat, and then continued: "Sir, don't worry, how can I, as a general, just ask about this?" I immediately sent a message to General Zhang Liao and ordered him to lead the elite troops out of the pot pass to deter Cao Cao

!" Mi Zhu was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "Thank you General Gao Yi!" Chen

Chu laughed, "Sir doesn't have to be like this, this matter is also my business

!" "Anyway, thank you to the general on behalf of Xuzhou!" Mi Zhu's tone was very sincere.

Chen Chu smiled and nodded, and then said: "In addition, I will report this matter to the Holy Lord, and ask the Holy Lord to issue a holy decree to stop Cao Cao's ridiculous behavior!"

Mi Zhu was overjoyed again, and hurriedly bowed again: "If it can be like this, it will be no better

!" Chen Chu paused, and then said: "Mr. is tired, please go to the pavilion to rest first!" Mi

Zhu saw that the other party had agreed to the request, so he bowed again:" It's better to be respectful than to obey your orders, so you will retire first.

Chen Chu smiled and nodded.

At this time, Mi Zhu asked respectfully, "I wonder when the army will set off?" The tone seemed a little urgent, and it is no wonder that the current situation in Xuzhou is more critical if it is delayed for one day.

After thinking for a while, Chen Chu replied: "General Zhang Liao will not be able to rush back in at least two days, and General Zhang Liao will be able to lead the army to set off in three days!"

Although Mi Zhu felt that this time was a little late, he did not raise any objections. Because he knew that it was not an easy task for the army to go on a campaign, and he knew that he had no room for bargaining.

After Mi Zhu left, Chen Chu smiled at Lu Su who was standing aside: "Sure enough, Zijing didn't expect

it!" Lu Su smiled indifferently and said modestly: "The lord has won the award!"

Chen Chu immediately showed a trace of worry and asked: "The current situation of our army is not very good, I am a little worried, will our army's actions cause a full-scale war with Cao Cao?"

Lu Su immediately hugged his fist at Chen Chu and said: "The lord is too worried! Compared to us, Cao Cao is even more reluctant to confront our army at this time! Not to mention that our army does not need to really attack Cao Cao this time, it only needs to send troops to press on Yecheng and let Cao Cao retreat with concerns!"

Chen Chu nodded, and a trace of worry in his heart immediately dissipated.

"Since this is the case, then quickly send an order to Zhang Liao and let him come back immediately!"

"Yes." Lu Su promised.

Three days later, the 50,000 Northern Army was ready to go on the outskirts of Bingzhou, and the 50,000 Northern Army was subordinate to the Third Army, which was the former Hexi Army.
