Cao Cao sent Xu You to persuade Lü Bu to send troops to attack Liu Bei. Lu Bu is terrible now, he has 50,000 wolf cavalry under his command, and no one can stop him from sweeping the grassland. The Huns were beaten by him and did not dare to approach within a hundred miles of Mayi, and the sheep and women did not know how much they had been taken away by Lu Bu.

For this reason, some small tribes dare not speak out! The Huns' big order is Liu Bao, he is very anxious about Lu Bu, but no one under his command is Lu Bu's opponent, so he can only watch him become bigger. Now that the situation is eliminating the other's strengths, if you want to start a war with Lu Bu, you must concentrate the strength of the entire clan.

Liu Bao hesitated, he didn't dare to bet, if he really couldn't take Lu Bu with the strength of the whole clan, then he really couldn't take this big single Yu. The memory of the last defeat is still fresh, and Liu Bao does not dare to do it again. Therefore, no matter how the people below complained, Liu Bao never sent a large army to fight with Lu Bu.

Lu Bu saw that the Xiongnu were strong and strong, so he set up his pasture directly in a mountain recess fifty miles away from Mayi City, and built a large village here, and its vicinity became a small bazaar.

When Xu You arrived at Yanmen Pass, Lu Bu happened to be absent, and he was patrolling this horse farm with people! Chen Gong received Xu You warmly, and prepared to send soldiers to call Lu Bu back. Xu You hurriedly spoke: "Junshi Chen doesn't have to be like this, since Wen Hou is going to inspect the racecourse!" Then I'll go to him and buy some more horses with him. In addition to forming alliances, buying horses is also one of the purposes of Xu Yu's trip.

Chen Gong thought about it and felt that it was nothing, so he called a subordinate to take Xu Yu and his party straight to the racecourse. When passing by Mayi, he learned from Zhang Liao that Lu Bu had arrived at this horse farm, so Xu You and others rushed here non-stop.

Lu Bu was very surprised to see Xu You and his party, and when Xu You proposed to buy a horse, Lu Bu suddenly understood. There are more than 5,000 adult horses in this horse farm under his control, and there are thousands of mares and ponies. Lu Bu knew that Cao Cao was rich, so he bought 5,000 war horses for Cao Cao at the price of ten taels of gold for a horse.

Xu Yu agreed without paying it back. When Lu Bu saw that the deal was done, he was immediately overjoyed! Feast at the horse farm, feast Xu You. At the banquet, Xu You frequently toasted to Lu Bu, and Lu Bu did not refuse, laughing and doing several bowls in a row. At this time, Xu You saw that he was almost drunk, so he said: "Wen Hou, this time I came to look for you in addition to buying a horse, there is another matter, which needs your approval!" ”

"Oh? What do you want to hear? Lu Bucai looked at him and asked casually.

"That's right, my lord Cao Gong wants to join forces with Wen Hou to fight Liu Bei, as long as the territory you have laid will all belong to you! What do you think? ”

"Hmph, he Cao Ah is generous, don't you want to calculate Lao Tzu?" Lu Bu put the wine bowl on the table and said with a cold snort.

"How so? Who in this world dares to calculate Lu Wenhou now? Isn't this Liu Bei's strength now? Only then did my lord want to borrow Wen Hou's hand to disperse Liu Bei's troops. Of course, the main attack is still up to us. After Xu You finished explaining, Lu Bu didn't speak, but he picked up the bowl and drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp, and then put the wine bowl down, and suddenly laughed.

Xu Yu hurriedly asked, "Why is Wen Hou laughing?" ”

Lu Bu replied: "I laughed at that Cao Apu, he would actually ask me for help, if it weren't for him, I wouldn't have come to this Yanmen Pass!" But now that feng shui is turning, it's his turn to beg me! Isn't it funny, you say? Hahaha! ”

Xu You didn't know how to scold Lu Bu in his heart, but on the surface, he grinned awkwardly and laughed with Lu Bu. Lu Bu smiled, and said: "I need to discuss this matter with the military advisor, you can go back to Yanmen with me tomorrow, and I will give you an answer when you get to Yanmen!" Come and keep drinking! Xu You didn't dare to say anything after listening to Lu Bu's words, so he drank again with him.

The next day, Lu Bu took Xu You and others back to Mayi, and after a day of rest in Mayi, they returned to Yanmen Pass. Chen Gong had already learned the purpose of Xu You's trip at this time, and after Lu Bu came back, he called Lu Bu aside, and then the two had a secret discussion.

Lu Bu finally followed Chen Gong's advice and pretended to form an alliance with Cao Cao, but in fact, Lu Bu secretly gave Cao Cao's news to Liu Bei, and asked the two of them to fight to the death, and in the end, he would take advantage of the fisherman. Xu You didn't know what Lu Bu thought, and as soon as he saw that Lu Bu agreed, he immediately sent the news back to Cao Cao. Cao Cao was also very happy to see that Xu You had actually moved Lu Bu.

So Cao Cao made a quick decision and prepared to send troops to attack Qingzhou. On the other hand, he asked Lu Bu to prepare men and horses to capture the cities of Youzhou. Cao Cao's idea was very good, but Lu Bu quietly passed the news to Liu Bei's people.

The news quickly sent the news to Liu Bei's case through the shadow's anticipation. After Liu Bei saw it, he immediately recruited Han Fei to come, Han Fei came over to take a look, and couldn't help laughing: "Cranes and mussels compete for fishermen and profits!" This Lu Bu's plan is indeed good. But who will have the last laugh, it's too early to see. ”

Liu Bei listened to Han Fei's words and suddenly became more confident, and he couldn't help but speak: "Zicong, then what are we going to do now?" ”

"My lord, now we don't have to do anything, just get the army ready. Once Cao Cao sends troops, we must also quickly top up. ”

Liu Bei nodded when he heard this, and immediately ordered Zhang Fei to step up his training, and all parts of Qingzhou were also nervously preparing for war, and all the generals of Liu Bei's army were also gearing up at this time, just waiting for Cao Cao's army to come and die!
