"I take it as my responsibility to help the Han family, and now it is the will of the Holy God, let me go to crusade against Lu Bu, if I don't go, it will be disobedience, is Zizhong trying to trap me and injustice?" Liu Bei naturally knew what Mi Zhu wanted to say. And he also knew that Mi Zhu was for his own good, but in the current situation, Liu Bei could not be allowed not to make such a choice.

"Even if it is a trick of the thief, I can only take the order. It's not whether this is the will of the saint or not, just talking about the powerful Cao Cao, we can't resist. On that day, I defected to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao took us in and helped us with grain and grass soldiers, the purpose of which was to support us to contain Lu Bu. Now Cao Jun is strong and strong, the only thing he lacks is time, even if he doesn't have us, he can take Xuzhou alone, and our role is really dispensable. And now he asked me to crusade against Lu Bu, but it was just to consume the experience of Lu Bu's army. Liu Bei said with a lonely expression.

At this time, he felt a trace of regret, regretting that he had accepted Lu Bu that day. On the same day, Lu Bu was defeated and surrendered, Liu Bei accepted Lu Bu in a benevolent and righteous heart, thinking that he would influence Lu Bu with his benevolence and righteousness, but he lowered Lu Bu's ambition.

If it weren't for Lu Bu, I should be in charge of Xuzhou at this time, and it should be my soldiers who have enough food, but now, I can only shrink in Xiaopei, and I have to look at Cao Cao's face to live in peace.

"The lord doesn't need to be sad, since the lord has already made a decision, his subordinates will definitely assist the lord to fight this battle. We must use this battle against Yang Wei and take Xuzhou in one fell swoop. Seeing that Liu Bei's expression was a little depressed, Mi Zhu hurriedly spoke out to admonish.

"Zizhong doesn't need to worry, I'm fine." Liu Bei came back to his senses and smiled at Mi Zhu with a slight smile. However, for Mi Zhu's words just now, Liu Bei just laughed and denied it. It's not that he doesn't have ambitions, but it's actually that it's difficult for his thousands of people to do much. Although there are no generals under Lu Bu, he himself carries a title of the world's first, and in addition, Chen Gong is not a simple role, so it is tantamount to an idiot's dream to take Xuzhou with only 4,000 soldiers.

"Then I will go down to oversee the grain and grass." As he spoke, Mi Zhu saluted Liu Bei, and then turned around and walked down. Mi Zhu was in charge of Liu Bei's finances and salary, so after the war, he was also very busy.

Liu Bei's movements here are so big, Lu Bu knew about it for the first time. Although Lu Bu did not take Liu Bei in his eyes, Chen Gong was very concerned about Liu Bei. Therefore, even if Liu Bei has been forced by himself to recruit Xiaopei, Chen Gong's investigation of him is still reported every day.

"Gongtai, Liu Bei dispatched troops in Xiaopei, what is the matter with stockpiling grain and grass?" Lu Bu knelt on the table in his usual clothes, turned his head sideways and asked Chen Gong, who was sitting on the side.

"Needless to say, Cao Cao already had plans to take Xuzhou, and Liu Bei must have been a spear for Cao Cao to attack and disturb us. Cao Cao had long wanted to crusade against Xuzhou, if it wasn't for Zhang Xiu's troubles in Wancheng that day, then Cao Cao's army of more than 100,000 would have been in Xuzhou. Chen Gong said softly. Liu Bei moved, which meant that Cao Cao's army was not far away. For this, Chen Gong had a trace of worry in his heart.

Cao Cao is powerful, and now he has taken Wancheng, both in terms of military strength and momentum. On the other hand, his own Xuzhou is far from Cao Cao's Yanzhou. Cao Cao is a hero, with great ambition and resourcefulness. In addition to Cao Cao, the military generals under Cao Cao are all immortal. On the other hand, under Lu Bu's command, except for Gao Shun, the rest of the generals are all wine bags and rice bags, and they are all shaved and patted horses, which is difficult to use.

In addition, Lu Bu was jealous of Zhao Fei. Lu Bu was defeated very badly at the hands of Zhao Fei back then, which made Lu Bu feel a little afraid of Zhao Fei's battle. Lu Bu is extremely brave, but it is really unpredictable that he will have such a heart as Zhao Fei, a scholar like Wen Ruo.

However, Chen Gong has somewhat concluded this. Lu Bu used to be brave and abnormal, but since he took Xuzhou, Lu Bu, the tiger, has changed, and it is not as good as before.

After the tiger settled down, he lost his former sharpness, and Chen Gong had a deep understanding of this. Since Lu Bu settled in Xuzhou, he took the entire Xuzhou without blood, which made Lu Bu's original love for his family explode. In fact, Lu Bu didn't have much ambition at all, he preferred a corner of peace. He really didn't have the determination to fight for hegemony.

So after he took Xuzhou, he was worried all the time, worried that Zhao Fei would wave his army to attack Xuzhou. Lu Bu made a lot of preparations for this, but the more he prepared, the more worried Lu Bu became about Zhao Fei.

"According to the meaning of Gongtai, Cao Cao will wave his army to attack Xuzhou in a few days?" Lu Bu hurriedly asked. For Liu Bei and Lu Bu, he didn't care at all, but for Cao Cao and Zhao Fei, Lu Bu was very jealous in his heart.

Chen Gong shook his head, and then said, "Not in a short time." Cao Cao had just attacked Wancheng, and although his troops had not been affected, the consumption of grain and grass was huge. In the crusade against Wancheng, Cao's army encountered heavy rain and did not make progress for a month. After all, Cao Cao had more than 100,000 soldiers under his command, and the grain and grass were quite expensive, so it was difficult to have the ability to launch a large-scale campaign again. ”

Hearing this, Lu Bu breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time he was very afraid of Cao Cao's army in Xuzhou. After all, he has been stable in Xuzhou for a long time, so he is very afraid of losing his current stability.

"Gongtai, is there a way to stop Cao Cao?" Lu Bu hurriedly asked, even if Cao Cao doesn't come now, he will know the art of war in Xuzhou sooner or later.

Hearing Lu Bu say this, Chen Gong couldn't help but sigh secretly. At this moment, he had doubts about his decision. In the past, Chen Gongzhi felt that Lu Bu just had a bad reputation, but since he took Xuzhou, Chen Gongzhi began to question his decision.

"There is no possibility, Xuzhou has a unique position, and Cao Cao has long had plans to go to Xuzhou. For the first time, due to the appearance of the lord, Cao Cao had no choice but to withdraw his troops. The second time, due to the Zhang embroidery of Wancheng. But now, Yanzhou's internal and external troubles have been assessed, and Cao Jun has no worries, as long as Yanzhou has enough grain and grass, Cao Jun will definitely know the art of war in Xuzhou. Chen Gong said with a frown.

The future days are becoming more and more worrisome, which makes Chen Gong not know what to do. Thinking that it would not be long before Cao Jun would be overwhelmed, which made Chen Gong feel extremely stressed.

However, despite the amazing pressure, Chen Gong could only bite the bullet and continue to do it.

"Lord, Cao Cao's intention to capture Xuzhou has become a fact, this matter is not possible to prevent it from manpower, and now the only thing we can do is to enrich our military strength, and when Cao Cao wields his army, we will meet the attack. When we will defeat Cao's army, then Cao Cao will not be able to attack Xuzhou again in a short time. And after Cao Cao recuperated and regained his strength, Xuzhou was also run by the lord and became an iron plate. Chen Gong said to Lu Bu in a deep voice.

Chen Gong thought for a moment, and then praised him: "And the lord, with your strength, no one in the world can resist you, and why is the lord afraid of Cao Cao." The lord fought in the Tiger Prison and retreated from the princes of the Eighteen Roads, and Cao Cao was also among them, which shows that the lord was a hundred times stronger than his predecessors. ”

Everyone likes to be praised, especially peerless generals like Lu Bu, who like the exploits of the year even more. And now that Lu Bu lacks confidence and ambition, Chen Gong wants to regain Lu Bu's confidence through Lu Bu's previous achievements.

Sure enough, when Lu Bu heard Chen Gong's words, his face naturally leaked with joy. Lu Bu also made a sound, and in his life, only the battle of Tiger Prison Pass made him famous all over the world.

"What the public station said is not bad, just a Cao Cao, I naturally didn't take it to heart." Lu Bu heard Chen Gong's praise, and immediately said arrogantly.

At this time, Chen Gong smiled and nodded, this was what he needed. If the commanders of the three armies do not have confidence, then there is no need for this war to continue. Morale is particularly important, the main generals are afraid of Cao Jun, and how can they ask the soldiers to show 100% strength to fight.

"There is one more thing, since Liu Bei wants to do things for Cao Cao, then we will take Liu Bei first. So the tone Liu Bei came to attack, we might as well take the initiative to attack and hit Liu Bei by surprise. Chen Gong said with a gloomy face.

In Chen Gong's opinion, Liu Bei's threat was no less than Cao Cao's. Liu Bei doesn't seem to have anything, and his actions make Lu Bu look very pedantic, but in Chen Gong's opinion, Liu Bei's actions are very capable of buying people's hearts.

Although the human heart is something that cannot be seen or touched, it often has a great impact. The people are very simple, and whoever is good to him, he will help. And Liu Bei is known for his benevolence and righteousness, so the people like to be close to him. Although Liu Bei is condescended to Xiao Pei in this matter, if he is really given a piece of territory, then his achievements are also limitless.

Take Xuzhou as an example, Cao Cao's crusade against Xuzhou back then can be described as bloody and bloody, and the people are not happy. However, not long after Liu Beicao took over Xuzhou, he quickly settled down the entire Xuzhou, which is precisely because of Liu Bei's people's aspirations, so Liu Bei is quite famous in Xuzhou, and in the hearts of the people, he also hopes that Liu Bei can govern Xuzhou.

So if Liu Bei really led his troops to attack Xuzhou, it was inevitable that the people of Xuzhou would do something. Although the city of Xuzhou is sharp, if Liu Bei provokes a civil uprising, then the matter will be out of control. Therefore, the tone is passive, it is better to take the initiative to attack, so that Liu Bei can be eliminated in the bud.

"This matter can be arranged on the public stage, a little Liu Bei, I don't take it seriously." When it comes to Liu Bei, Lu Bu's momentum is naturally different. After all, Lu Bu had defeated Liu Bei miserably, so he despised Liu Bei very much.

"The lord can't be underestimated, although Liu Bei's strength is meager, but he is victorious in the hearts of the people, if the time comes to provoke a popular uprising, then the matter will be big." Chen Gong said in a deep voice.
