Chapter 523: Conspiracy

"What are you two thinking?" Wei Xu looked at the two of them and said urgently.

Hou Cheng and Song Xian glanced at each other, and said hesitantly: "The lord treats us well, and Chen Junshi also said that Yuan Highway will soon send troops to help us and others, so betrayed the lord and joined the enemy..."

"What if we don't get thin? It's been so long, what about the reinforcements that the old thing in Chen Gong said? It's just a lie. He and Cao Cao are endless, and they want to drag us into the water to die together, this old immortal has extremely sinister intentions. Now that Lu Bu has no way to live, if we don't defect to Cao Gong as soon as possible, I am afraid that under the anger of Cao Gong, you and I will not be able to escape death. Tying up Lu Bu and abandoning the darkness to the light can be regarded as a great contribution to Cao Gong, how will Cao Gong not be kind to you and me at that time? Wei Xu said with greed in his eyes, as if he had seen Cao Cao's promise and his treasure.

Hearing this, the two of them lingered for a moment between their integrity and conscience and the glory of survival, and Song Xianyi gritted his teeth and said: "Lu Bu is now addicted to wine, and it is easy to capture it, but I have to deal with Chen Gong together." ”

As soon as these words came out, Hou Cheng's eyes that were constantly hesitating also became firm and nodded.

If it had been Lu Bu, who had been invincible a few days ago, they would definitely not have betrayed him. But now Lu Bu has become obsessed with beauty and degenerate, and he doesn't care about the life and death of these life and death brothers, nor does he have the invincible flying general demeanor that he was the first to be, which makes the invincible image in the hearts of the generals collapse, and they have all lost confidence in Lu Bu. Now the city is full of water, which affects not only the confidence of the soldiers and the people, but also the hearts of their generals.

When Wei Xu heard this, the corners of his mouth grinned: "Chen Gongtai is just a rotten Confucian, I ordered three or two personal soldiers to tie him up." When we poured it, we escorted Lu Bu down when Lu Bu was drunk and sent it to Cao Gong, so that the second half of the glory and wealth will be in hand. ”

Compared with Hou Cheng and Song Xian, whose faces were slightly ashamed, Wei Xu's eyes were full of excitement, and there was no shame at all. For him, Lu Bu is just a cash cow for his promotion and fortune, this tree is about to fall, he has no sadness at all, but wants to squeeze out its last value and sell this tree.

.......

In the Cao army camp, Cao Cao stood on the top of the high slope where the army was stationed, looking at Zeguo in the distance, with a slight melancholy in his eyes.

"Lord, but are you worried about Wei Xu?" I don't know when, Xi Zhi walked up from the bottom of the slope, saw Cao Cao's face was worried, and asked softly.

Cao Cao nodded lightly: "This person is greedy for money and lustful, I am not worried that he will turn against the water, I am afraid that he is not cautious enough and will be discovered by Chen Gong, and when he falls, I am only afraid that I will want to capture Lu Bu again to save the trouble." ”

Xi Zhicai heard it. The look of worry flashed on his face, but he still said confidently: "Lord, the current situation in Huangxian County, and Lu Bu is doing like that, the generals under his command will inevitably deviate from morality." As long as Wei Xu is not in a hurry and contacts one or two more generals, there should be no problem. ”

Cao Cao smiled when he heard this: "Also, Lu Bu, the tiger, has now lost all his strength, and the soldiers under his command will definitely deviate from morality." A tiger that has lost its guts, what is there to be afraid of? ”

"If Wei Xu and the others capture Lu Busheng, how will the main guild deal with it?" Xi Zhicai suddenly asked.

Cao Cao's eyes flashed with complexity, and he asked inexplicably: "Zhicai, what do you think I should do?" ”

Xi Zhicai smiled without saying a word, turned to look at the south, and muttered meaningfully: "Yuan Highway estimates that it won't take long to take Yuzhou." ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he looked at Xi Zhicai and smiled: "The parents of those who gave birth to me, and the ones who know me are also Zhicai!" ”

"If there is no Yuan Highway, I will kill him. But now, no matter how disgusted and jealous I am, I will surrender to him. Cao Cao said in a complicated tone.

"What about Wei Xu and the others?"

Cao Cao smiled contemptuously at the corner of his mouth: "What does it mean to be a traitor who seeks glory and is greedy for life and afraid of death?" Find a chance for Lu Bu to kill him, and if he is punishing him with a small punishment, maybe this tiger will have a chance to return to his heart! ”

Cao Cao really didn't look down on any of the so-called six strong generals under Lu Bu, and there were originally two real people in history, Zhang Liao and Zangba, who had real materials to support the field, and Cao Cao was still a little interested in them. But now there are only these so-called six strong generals, and the strongest is just the level of an ordinary 10,000 generals, and the morality is not eye-catching, how can Cao Cao look at it? The promise to Wei Xu was just to take Lu Bu for the time being, and then the ending would definitely not be good. Thinking about Xu Yu's death after the Battle of Guandu, it is clear that with Boss Cao's suspicious and ungrateful character, there is a way to kill him. When you need it, you will welcome it, and when you don't need it, you will abandon it, this is Cao Cao.

In this era when scholars are filial piety and honesty and military generals are loyal and righteous, how many of the traitors can really be reused by the lord? The traitor is even more disgusting. Wei Xu and the others took it for granted, even if Cao Cao executed Lu Bu, the ending of the three of them would not be much better.

"The lord is really generous, he can accept the world's talents, although he is now in a predicament in the Central Plains, but in the future, he will be able to ascend to heaven and achieve great things." Xi Zhicai just got the right amount of sycophants.

Cao Cao laughed loudly when he heard this: "In the past, the Marquis of Huaiyin wanted to hold his troops to self-respect, and even forced Gaozu to crown him as the king of Qi, but Gaozu was forced by the situation to tolerate him. Why can't I tolerate Lu Bu? ”

When Xi Zhicai heard this, he smiled and said: "The lord is wise and does not lose to Gaozu, and he will definitely be able to defeat Yuan Shu with a weak victory like Gaozu." ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he smiled on his face, and then sighed lightly and said: "Although Xiang Yu is brave, he is domineering, does not know strategy, and does not know how to use people. But although today's Yuan Shu is said to be unsuccessful in martial arts, his subordinates are like clouds and good generals, and the soldiers and people under his command are all in their hearts, but it is much more difficult to deal with than Xiang Yu back then. ”

"So what the lord wants to do is better than Gao Zu." Xi Zhicai said solemnly. Times are moving forward, the cruelty of war is growing, and it will become more and more difficult to win the world. Especially in this era, there are many heroes. During the Qin and Han dynasties, it was nothing more than a struggle between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, and the other countries were just soy sauce players, basically weak chickens who did nothing. But now it is a group of disputes, and it is not easy for Cao Cao to face Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, and even Lu Bu, who is now being forced into a desperate situation.

"Lu Bu, this tiger is difficult to subdue, and if he doesn't get it right, he will backfire on himself, with the wisdom of the lord, although he will definitely not end up like Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan, but it is not easy to make an envoy with him, and the lord must be psychologically prepared. The situation we are facing now is indispensable for the help of Lu Bu! Xi Zhicai said in a deep voice.

"I understand that the situation is critical, and I will let this tiger serve obediently under me no matter what. I don't believe that Lu Bu really can't control it! Cao Cao's eyes flashed ruthlessly, he has always done things by unscrupulous means to achieve his goals, and he instantly came up with countless conspiracies and tricks to deal with Lu Bu in his heart.
