Chapter 669: Cao Cao's Black Hand

Liu Bei's sudden attack made Cao Cao's already narrow eyes narrow, turned his head to look at Liu Bei, flashed an awe-inspiring murderous intent, and then disappeared.

The comparison between the strength of Liu Bei and Cao Cao today is not as disparity as it is in history.

In history, when Cao Cao and Liu Bei were in the same dynasty, Cao Cao's power was overwhelming, coercing the princes of the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and there were countless good ministers under his command, and Liu Bei was just a parasitic fence, not even soldiers and horses, trembling.

Now it is different, Cao Cao suffered heavy losses by Zhang Liao in Yanzhou, and hibernate in Luoyang for two years, losing the best opportunity for development, only this time he took advantage of Dong Cheng and the Son of Heaven to plot Zhang Liao, took control of the imperial city, and became a fisherman.

But this time Liu Bei is not bad, he became another fisherman in this Luoyang Change, in addition to the original Si Li, Hu Ben, after Guan Yu killed Wu Kun, he annexed the Yulin Army, and when Cao Cao controlled the imperial city, he took the opportunity to serve the soldiers and horses of Dong Cheng's royal suit, which is now enough to compete with Cao Cao, just like Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo at the beginning.

However, Cao Cao's soldiers and horses are the elite of long-term battles, with the clan as the core, and the degree of cohesion is extremely high, but Liu Bei's troops are pieced together for a while, and the real battle is not as good as Cao Cao, he needs time to integrate his strength, and the appearance of Yu Poison is the best opportunity, for the weak, the three-legged position is much better than the polarization situation.

Liu Xiezheng, the son of heaven, was so helpless that he had no way to retreat by Cao **, and when he saw Liu Bei's sudden support, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "The courage of Guan Zhonglang and Captain Zhang, I also know it, it is not worse than the general, if the two are protected, I can sit back and relax, I can summon the two, and quickly follow me to see the poison." ”

At this time, Liu Xie was only afraid of going on a business trip again, and he didn't pay attention to Cao Cao, and he couldn't wait to see Yu Poison.

It's just that he thought simply, how could Cao Cao let him go in line with Liu Bei, took a step forward, and said in a deep voice: "My brother Cao Ren and Xiahoudun are not inferior in courage, but they can follow Your Majesty." ”

Liu Xie's expression of joy froze, looking at Cao Cao, who did not back down, his cheeks twitched, and he spit out a word: "Accurate." ”

……

Half an hour later, outside the east gate of the imperial city.

The Son of Heaven Liu Xie saw Yu Poison and Zhang Sheng, who were already waiting, and Liu Xie was followed by Yang Biao and Xuan Fan, together with Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Cao Ren, Xiahou and other generals.

Although there were five or six thousand people behind Yu Poison and Zhang Sheng, they couldn't help but be vigilant when they saw Liu Xie taking so many people out of the city, and Wang Gui in front of them had already stepped forward to meet them, Yu Poison glanced at Zhang Sheng and several subordinates, and asked them to bring the soldiers and horses, while he followed Wang Gui alone to meet the Son of Heaven.

Liu Xie saw five or six thousand soldiers and horses outside the city, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and saw Wang Gui leading one person forward, even if he wanted to meet him, Yang Biao on the side stopped him and said: "When they come up to worship, Your Majesty must not lose his majesty." ”

Liu Xie frowned, but he didn't say much, in fact, it was also in his heart that he was eager to go out of the city to greet him, otherwise how could he, the son of heaven, come to greet a thief leader who recruited An? On this point, Liu Yu, Yang Biao and others agreed with Cao Cao's opinion.

Therefore, at this time, Liu Xie listened to Yang Biao's words, forced his heart to be anxious, and stopped.

Wang Gui and Yu Poison stepped forward, Wang Gui first bowed to the ground, Yu Poison hesitated, and also bowed.

Liu Xie looked happy, and personally stepped forward to help the two of them: "The two generals quickly calm down." ”

Yu Poison got up, did not hold back, first glanced at Liu Xie, and then glanced at Xiahoudun next to him, he and the Son of Heaven were the first to meet, but with Xiahoudun can be regarded as old friends, five years ago in Yanzhou was inextricably fought, 100,000 troops were defeated by Cao Cao, at that time Xiahoudun was a fierce general in Cao Cao's camp.

Although Liu Xie is young, he has his own bearing, although he is eager to use the poison for his own use at this time, truly control the force, and no longer be controlled by others, but he is still a righteous and stern attitude: "General Yu lost his way and returned to the imperial court, I am very relieved, I amnesty you and other past mistakes, and I hope that you and other loyal countries will become my shares." ”

To Liu Xie's surprise, Yu Poison was not immediately overjoyed, but hugged his fists and said: "I am willing to serve Your Majesty, but if you have an inquiry, I hope Your Majesty will solve your doubts." ”

All the ministers behind Liu Xie were displeased, in their opinion, the Son of Heaven personally greeted a thief who was attached, which can be described as a heavy gift, and he immediately kowtowed and worshipped when he was poisoned, how dare he say what conditions!

Liu Xie's expression remained unchanged, and he said gently: "I don't know if General Yu has any doubts?" ”

Yu Poison looked at the ministers behind Liu Xie, and said in a loud voice: "I heard that the imperial court is going to deal with the general, I don't know if there is such a thing?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Liu Xie, along with his ministers and generals, all changed color.

Yang Biao said sharply: "Where did you hear the rumors? How dare you lie here! ”

At this time, Yang Biao's body trembled slightly, he already regretted that he did not try his best to dissuade the Son of Heaven from weakening the authority of the general, things did not seem to be what he imagined, the Son of Heaven and Dong Cheng clearly wanted to kill the general, and now even Yu Poison knew it, Yang Biao didn't dare to imagine what the result would be if the words of the Son of Heaven murdering the general spread in Luoyang!

He deeply knew that Zhang Liao's prestige in Luoyang was too high, and once he knew that the Son of Heaven was persecuting the general, the prestige of the imperial court would be gone, and there would be even more terrible consequences!

Liu Xie clenched his fists in his sleeves, and smiled forcibly at Yu Poison's inquiry: "Where did General Yu hear such rumors, it's really unbelievable." ”

Yu Poison Zhengse said: "This is very good, I really don't hide it from the Son of Heaven, others and I are not afraid, but we dare not be the enemy of the general, if we meet the general, we will retreat three feet, words in front, and then hope that the Son of Heaven will be strange." ”

In the crowd, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu glanced at each other, both smiling, Zhang Liao's brother is so prestigious, they are honored.

Liu Xie's cheeks twitched, and a sudden surge of anger surged in his heart, he secretly recruited soldiers and horses at the beginning, originally to prevent Zhang Liao, and now these soldiers and horses that he tried his best to recruit actually thought that he did not dare to be enemies with Zhang Liao, so what was the use of him recruiting!

Immediately, Liu Xieqiang suppressed the anger in his heart, and he was a little glad in his heart, fortunately, now Zhang Liao is in crisis on the battlefield in Yuzhou, and there is little hope of survival.

"In this way, I enshrine General Yu as General Huaizhong......"

Before Liu Xie finished speaking, a person from a distance rushed from the city gate and bowed down in front of Liu Xie and everyone: "Your Majesty, the general of the chariot cavalry suddenly attacked General Wei in the south of the city......

Before everyone could react, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's faces changed instantly, and the two of them didn't say a word, and went straight to the south of the city.

At this time, the two of them were shocked and angry in their hearts, and they didn't dare to delay for a moment! They all know that they are the only generals under their brother Liu Bei, but they are not around, and Cao Cao's subordinates in addition to Cao Ren and Xiahoudun sent by them, there are more than ten generals, among which Le Jin, Yu Ban, Li Dian and others are even more respected by the fourth brother Zhang Liao.

Now Cao Cao is so shameless!

The two of them didn't dare to imagine what kind of crisis their brother Liu Bei would fall into once they went back late!

Seeing Guan Yu and Zhang Fei leaving so anxiously, everyone also reacted, Cao Cao actually attacked Liu Bei when Liu Bei sent Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to protect the Son of Heaven!

Liu Xie's face was pale, he turned to look at Cao Ren and Xiahoudun on the side, and said sharply: "What does Cao Cao want!" ”

Xiahoudun didn't know how to answer, but Cao Ren reacted quickly: "The two of us follow Your Majesty, and I don't know what is going on, and let the two of us go back to investigate." ”

After that, he took Xiahoudun and left.

Liu Xie immediately turned to Yu Poison: "General Yu, quickly enter the city with soldiers and horses, and quell the chaos with me!" ”

As long as he didn't face Zhang Liao, Yu Yu didn't hesitate, and immediately gathered soldiers and horses and followed Liu Xie into the city.
