Chapter 130: Lips and Teeth

In the second year of Jian'an, Yuan Shu wanted to take advantage of Cao Cao's defeat by Zhang Xiu and the low morale of Cao's army to capture Chen State in one fell swoop, and then approach Cao Cao's old nest, Xuchang.

However, when Yuan Shu heard that Cao Cao personally led the army to intercept the attack, he couldn't restrain the fear of Cao Cao in his heart for a while, and even left his army on the front line of the battlefield and led his own soldiers to run away. The front line only left the leaderless Qiao Rui, Li Feng, Liang Gang, and the four generals of Leda, but these four people were Cao Cao's opponents, and after being defeated by Cao Cao one by one, they were all killed.

Yuan Shu crossed the Huai River and returned to Shouchun, Cao Cao saw that Yuan Shu had run away, so he withdrew his troops and returned to Xudu, preparing to recuperate, his battle with Yuan Shu was also a little comforting to Cao Cao's heart, and the morale of Cao's army was also slightly improved. But today, Cao Cao's most scruples are still Yuan Shao of Hebei, the last time he asked him to be a lieutenant, he actually refused, and the failure of the conquest of Zhang Xiu made Cao Cao realize that at this moment he did not have the time to turn his face with Yuan Shao, so he himself stepped down from the position of general and gave the general to Yuan Shao, in order to alleviate the contradictions between them.

But when Yuan Shu returned to Shouchun, he didn't fight in one place, Cao Cao was so hateful, he had to embarrass himself every time, Cao Cao in the north was too angry, and he didn't dare to provoke, Liu Biao in the south was a hard bone, and he couldn't gnaw on himself for a while, what should I do, if I want to save my face in the minds of the princes, I can only win a few more battles, who can I beat in the whole world, there is no doubt that it is naturally Liu Xuande, because Liu Bei has been defeated by him before, and he has been beaten embarrassed.

"It's really one thing after another, and it never stops!" Liu Bei stuck his waist and had a sad face.

There are indeed too many things, one by one, and he is simply overwhelmed. How does a person grow from a small age, and how to succeed step by step, the key is to do a small thing first, the small thing is successful, the joy of victory, the heart has the motivation to continue to go, and then do a slightly bigger thing, and then succeed, and get the joy of victory, and the heart has the motivation to continue to go, in the long run, is the reason for the success of step by step.

This is how people's faith is cultivated.

But since Liu Bei's debut, it has really been one bad thing after another, one bad thing after another, and finally saw the starry hope, and God fell from the sky with another basin of cold water, completely extinguishing the fire of hope in Liu Bei's heart, and there is no humanity at all.

I thought that I went from the county lieutenant to the county order, from the minister of state to the state pastor, and the moment I got Xuzhou, to be honest, I was very happy in my heart, and I had my own territory, which meant that I could finally start to develop and grow step by step, but God's cold water seems to be used to watering, how can I not pour it this time, a basin of cold water, Xuzhou is gone, and now I have fallen to the point of a watchdog, and I have started to work for Lu Bu to guard the home.

"Yuan Shu destroys my thief's heart and does not die!" Jian Yong hammered the desk angrily, he really hated Yuan Shu, the old thief, if there was no attack from this old thief, Xuzhou would not have lost it.

"Let's fight him!" Guan Yu was also furious and said, "Big brother, let's not give him some color, Yuan Shu won't give up!" ”

"Second brother is right, big brother, let's send troops!" Zhang Fei was not to be outdone.

Liu Bei looked at Sun Qian, then at Mi Zhu, and said, "Zizhong, Gongyou, what do you think?" ”

"Forehead......" Mi Zhu was speechless, because he didn't know what to do.

"Lord, I think we might as well go find Lu Bu, after all, we are nominally taking refuge in him, let's talk about it and see if he can send troops or something!" Sun Qian said.

"Tell me what a fart, Lu Bu has already exchanged letters with Yuan Shu and expressed friendship, and now that Yuan Shu is coming to beat us, how can he interfere!" Zhang Fei was furious, looking at Sun Gan's suggestion, he couldn't listen to it.

"You have the ability, you can fight it yourself, what are you crazy about here!" Seeing that Sun Qian was so rude, he was also angry in his heart.

"Fight, fight, I'm still scared of Zhang Fei......"

"That's it!" Liu Bei interrupted Zhang Fei's words, and said sonorously: "What time is it now, and I still have the heart to start infighting here!" ”

Zhang Fei listened, looked to the other side, puffed out his mouth, and stopped talking.

The room was silent, terrifyingly quiet, Liu Bei found a place to sit down.

After a long time, Liu Bei asked, "Gongyou, are you confident that you can convince Lu Bu?" ”

"To be honest, I don't have much confidence, but explain the stakes to them, and believe that they are not stupid!" Sun Qian said sincerely.

"Okay, I want you to go to Xiapi for a trip and talk to Lu Bu, please leave this matter to you!"

"Whoosh~" In the forest, Lu Bu, who was hunting, fired three arrows at once, and all three wild dogs fell to the ground.

"The general is mighty, the general is mighty~" Lu Bu's personal guards raised their bows and arrows in their hands, and kept shouting and cheering for Lu Bu.

"The general's divine shooting, admire it!" Chen Deng on the side said.

"What's the point of beating a few wild dogs, I don't have to worry about taking the rank of general among the ten thousand soldiers!" Lu Bu said proudly.

"Fengxian, Fengxian~ Why did you come here to hunt again, you are already the eighth time this month!"

Lu Bulema turned around, and it turned out that Chen Gong was running here with the guards.

"What's wrong with the eight times, I'm the lord here, it's okay to hunt!" Lu Bu didn't like Chen Gong very much to call himself in front of everyone, and he had to call himself the lord no matter how he said it.

"Fengxian, you are now the state pastor of Xuzhou, not the wandering general who had no land before, what you have to do is not only to train the army, recruit troops, but more importantly, to develop Xuzhou, grain production, city defense construction, tax policy, water conservancy construction, etc., etc., these are all for you to plan as a whole, you hunt in the forest every day, Xuzhou's government affairs development does not matter, how can this work?" Chen Gong asked.

Lu Bu stared at Chen Gong in front of him, unable to let go for a long time, and the breath in his heart felt like 10,000 lions impacting in his chest. How can there be such a person, who is the lord?

"Don't be angry with the public station, General Lu only comes here occasionally, usually General Lu's efforts in government affairs are obvious to everyone, and he is busy and free, and he is here to better manage government affairs in the future!" Chen Deng said with a smile.

"That's it, Mr. Yuanlong is right, I'm just combining work and rest!" Lu Bu threw the bow and arrow in his hand to the soldiers on the side, and said, "Go back!" ”

Sun Gan stood at the door of Lu Bu's mansion, anxiously walking back and forth, he wanted to see Lu Bu, someone had already gone to inform him, he clasped his hands together, and looked inside the door from time to time to see if the person who reported the news had come out. The situation is really urgent, Yuan Shu's general Ji Ling's 50,000 troops are approaching Xiaopei, if there is no help from Lu Bu, with the 2,000 soldiers and horses in Xiaopei City, it will be wiped out in minutes.

Someone came out.

Sun Qian immediately took three steps and two steps to climb the steps, and hurriedly asked, "How is it?" ”

"My lord asked you to come with me!"

"Yes, it's hard work!" Sun Qian followed the soldier in.

"I didn't expect Yuan Shu to be so anxious, Liu Bei had just settled in Xiaopei, and he came to beat him, did he hate him so much?" Lu Bu leaned forward and rested his elbows on his thighs.

"Lord, Liu Bei's existence is a threat to us, why don't we take this opportunity to borrow a knife to kill someone!" Xu Yan made a "killing" action, with a sinister and vicious expression on his face.

"Wang Kai, what do you think?" Lu Bu asked.

"I agree with Xu Yan's opinion, and I only verbally promised Liu Bei, but let's not send troops!"

The footsteps outside were approaching, and when he saw Sun Gan walking in, he bent down and bowed to Lu Bu.

"General Lu, Yuan Shu will not die to destroy the thief heart of Xuzhou, he sent Ji Ling to lead an army of 50,000 to kill Xiaopei, I am ordered by my lord to come and ask General Lu to send reinforcements!"

"Oh, I've heard about Yuan Shu, and I also hate Yuan Shu's behavior, it's just that I just joined Xuzhou, and I have few troops and can't be mobilized, so the help for Brother Xuande can only be...... It's just that the heart is weak! Lu Bu looked embarrassed and said helplessly.

"General Lu, please listen to me carefully, Xiao Pei is the gateway to Xuzhou, once Xiao Pei is lost, Xia Pi will be directly exposed under Yuan Shu's nose, Yuan Shu called himself Xuzhou Bo a long time ago, he coveted Xuzhou is not a matter of one or two days, his first step is to capture Xiao Pei, the second step is to capture Xuzhou, the general doesn't hear the truth of the cold lips and teeth!"

"I can't make a decision on such a major matter for a while, I still need to discuss!" At this time, Chen Gong and Chen Deng were not there.

"General Qiyu, Chen Gong asks to see you!" The soldier came to give the report.

"Hurry up, please!" Lu Bu stood up abruptly and asked to call Chen Deng in quickly.

"Why don't you sit down for a while?" Lu Bu looked at Sun Qian, who was standing there.

"Thank you, General Lu, I won't sit down!"

Chen Gong hurriedly walked in.

"Gongtai, why are you here!" Lu Bu complained, pointed his finger, and said, "Just sit down!" ”

"Thank you!" Chen Gong sat down and said straight to the point: "Fengxian, I already know about Yuan Shu's march, I want to know, what do you think!" ”

"Uh...... What is the opinion of the public station, you say it first! ”

"Oh, then I'll be straightforward, I suggest that you immediately send troops to stop Yuan Shu's advance!"

"We have just entered Xuzhou, and our feet have not yet been firmly established, what kind of soldiers are coming!" Xu Yan said.

"Ignorance!" Chen Gong scolded angrily in front of him.

"You ......".

"Besides, if Yuan Shu occupies Xiaopei, he will unite the troops in the area of Mount Tai in the north, and we will be surrounded by Yuan Shu, I can't help but save Liu Bei." Chen Gong interrupted Xu Yan's rebuttal, because he felt that Xu Yan and others were not worthy of debating with him at all.

"Oh, listen to you, listen to you, I'll go!"
