Chapter 572: Xuzhou Succeeds
Wancheng, after Lu Bu pursued Liu Biao to no avail, he could only return to Wancheng with some wolves. However, as soon as he stepped into Wancheng, he found that the atmosphere in Wancheng was quite wrong, and in an instant, Lu Bu's heart was a little cold, and what he was most worried about might still have happened.
Immediately, Lu Bu didn't care about settling down the army behind him, and directly led Xiahou Chun and the two of them under the Chen Palace towards the Taishou Mansion of Nawan City.
However, before he entered the hall of the Taishou Mansion, he had already seen that Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and others were already sitting there, with sad faces on their faces.
"Mengde, what's going on?" Lu Bu walked in front of Cao Cao in a few steps and roared out directly.
Cao Cao glanced at Lu Bu and wanted to speak, but he held back in the middle of his words. At this time, his gaze suddenly drifted to Xiahou Chun behind Lu Bu, and he immediately gritted his teeth, and hurriedly asked, "Feng Xian, have you caught up with that Liu Biao." ”
Suddenly, Lu Bu's face froze, and he looked at him with some embarrassment, like Cao Cao, and didn't know what to say.
Cao Cao was also stunned when he saw Lu Bu's expression, he Lu Bu's expression obviously didn't catch up with Liu Biao, but how could this be possible, you must know that you had arranged for Xiahou Chun to buy it early, so how could Liu Biao escape.
"Yuan Rang, what the hell is going on!" Then Lu Bu refused to say, so he Cao Cao had to ask him Xiahou Chun.
Xiahou Chun also looked at Cao Cao with an embarrassed face, this matter is indeed embarrassing. But he Lu Bu can not answer, he can't do it, in desperation. I could only bite the bullet and say, "Lord Qiqi, we were about to kill that Liu Biao, but that Liu Yao didn't know where to come out, and he was rescued!" ”
"What!" Cao Cao was shocked, turned his head and glanced at Lu Bu, and saw that he did not refute, it seems that this matter is indeed the case. Cao Cao, that's called a hate. Originally, I thought that the victory was in my hands and I could solve the big scourge of Liu Biao, but now I didn't expect that stealing chickens would not be a loss of rice. was not only put on a table by that Liu Biao, but also ran away by him.
Lu Bu couldn't hold back his face when Cao Cao saw it, and quickly changed the topic and said, "Meng De, don't talk about this." What happened to the grain and grass? Can it be saved? ”
Suddenly, Cao Cao's face darkened, and it was no worse than that Zhang Fei. He Cao Cao is also embarrassed now, he really doesn't know how to talk about this grain and grass. If it is said that Liu Biao's run away is just a trivial matter, then this grain and grass matter is undoubtedly a catastrophe.
That Cao Cao didn't answer, Lu Bu was in a hurry, and in desperation, he could only walk in front of Liu Bei. asked, "Xuande, what's wrong with the grain and grass!" ”
When I was chasing after that Liu Biao before. He Liu Bei did not participate, but followed him Cao Cao to extinguish the fire, so this Liu Bei must know about this matter.
He Liu Bei is not like this Cao Cao, he didn't know how to speak, he stood up, his face was full of sadness, and he almost said with tears, "I don't know what method Liu Biao used, which actually made the fire spread very quickly, I and Cao Zhoumu wanted to extinguish the fire, but it was difficult for Qiao women to cook without rice, and in the end, those grains and grasses were not saved ...... ten."
Lu Bu staggered back two steps, and didn't listen until he bumped into Na Chen Gong.
Liu Bei's words were like a heavy hammer, and a thunderbolt hit him in the chest. What does it mean that there is not one out of ten food? Originally, the grain and grass in this Wancheng were enough for 300,000 troops to eat for a year, but now, it would be good if the remaining grain and grass could support their remaining army for a month and a half.
"Mengde, Gongtai, what should we do now?" Lu Bu was a little panicked, if he was waiting for me in other aspects, even if he was in the midst of the army, he Lu Bu would not frown for half a minute, but when he met me like this, he Lu Bu couldn't think of a way at all.
Cao Cao waved his hand, signaling Na Lu Bu to be calm and calm, and said calmly, "Fengxian, don't worry, it's not yet to the point where the mountains and rivers are exhausted, there is not much food in Wancheng, we can still transport it from Yuzhou, as long as it is ......"
"Report ......" Before he Cao Cao finished speaking, a herald rushed in anxiously, shouting in panic, "Lord Qi, that Liu Yao, he, he, he led the troops to surround our Wancheng!" ”
"What!" In an instant, Cao Cao's calm appearance just now was broken, and he walked in front of the herald in one step, pulled him back, and roared angrily, "You're telling me again!" ”
The herald saw Cao Cao waiting for me so terrifyingly, and immediately drowned his spittle, and stammered, "Then Liu Yao has surrounded Wancheng!" ”
This time, Cao Cao couldn't sit still anymore, his face was gloomy, he pushed away the herald, didn't speak, and rushed directly out of the city.
This Liu Yao actually came to besiege the city so well, coupled with the fire outside the burning of grain and grass, obviously there is a set of plans, he Liu Yao led him by the nose, he Cao Cao was unwilling in his heart.
The rest of the people, you look at me, I look at you, and in the end I can only helplessly follow the footsteps of Cao Cao.
On the gate of Wancheng, Cao Cao and a few people appeared here in a hurry, and they also clearly saw Liu Yao riding a horse below, waiting where he was.
"Wen Hou, I didn't expect that we would meet again not long after we separated" Liu Yao greeted Lu Bu playfully as soon as he saw him. Then he turned his head and shouted at Cao Cao, "Cao Mengde, it's been good lately, I heard that your Wancheng is a little short of food now, I don't know if I, Liu Yao, can help you with anything." ”
Bastard! At this moment, everyone can only use such a word to describe Liu Yao in their hearts, a typical cheap and obedient person, it is really hateful.
"Liu Yao, what do you want to do!" Lu Bu was also really angry, and he asked such a brain-dead question in such a careless way.
Suddenly, all the people on the city wall blushed, bowed their heads with some shame, and took a few steps to the side, indicating that they were not familiar with him Lu Bu.
Liu Yao couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "Lu Bu, Lu Bu, you are really ignorant enough to ask this question, you and Cao Cao conspired to rebel and commit rebellion, I am ordered by the Holy Shangzhi to come to arrest you." ”
"As for me now, too many people have died in the previous battle, and I really can't bear it, so I don't think I will take the initiative to attack the city anymore, until the two of you are willing to surrender to the lord, then I will definitely ask the Holy Lord to help you two plead guilty, and you will be punished lightly!"
"Damn!" That Lu Bu really couldn't stand Liu Yao's provocation like this, and wanted to lead the troops directly down and cut down that Liu Yao, in order to discourage the hatred in his heart.
Seeing this, Cao Cao pulled Na Lu Bu, shook his head, and whispered, "Wait, endure the calm for a while, as long as you wait until that side is done, the danger of this Wancheng will be solved." ”
Lu Bu also took a deep breath when he heard this, calmed down, glared at Liu Yao angrily, and stopped talking, indeed now, if you go down and fight hard, you will definitely be more than lucky, but as long as you wait until Sun Ce's side succeeds, then you can do it in one qiē.
Cao Cao stepped forward and laughed at Liu Yao, "Since the general has a Yaxing, then I won't bother, the general, you can wait here slowly!" I'm going down to rest! ”
Liu Yao looked at Cao Cao's fearless appearance, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly, how could he not know about Cao Cao's dependence, and the interesting thing is that he and Cao Cao's dependence are actually the same person, but unfortunately that person is on his side, not him Cao Cao.
Wait! Liu Yao roared, stopped Cao Cao, and said directly, "Presumably Cao Mengde, you are still waiting for news from that Sun Ce!" ”
As soon as Liu Yao's words came out, all of a sudden everyone on Cao Cao's side and Lu Bu were all messy, and one by one the tiger bodies shook wildly, and they couldn't stop.
Impossible, absolutely impossible, there is only one thought in everyone's minds at this moment. That Sun Ce is the secret weapon on his side, with his invincible naval army, then they can complete their strategy.
But in fact, the most important thing is that except for a few people, no one else will know about this matter of Sun Ce, so how did Liu Yao know.
Don't...... Suddenly, a terrifying but infinite speculation appeared in their minds.
Seeing this, Liu Yao waved his hand behind him, and immediately Huang Xu left late with a Cao army soldier, looking at the dress, most of them looked like heralds.
"Cao Mengde, I accidentally caught one of your Cao Jun's riders, so I'll give him back to you now!" Liu Yao said nonchalantly.
Suddenly, Huang Xu pushed that Cao Jun and glared at him fiercely, and the latter quickly spread his legs and ran in the direction of Cao Cao.
"Lord, I am under the command of General Cao Ren of Xuzhou, and I have something important to ask to see my lord!"
The Cao army ran under the city wall, crying with a handful of snot and tears.
Cao Cao frowned, and finally put down a hanging basket and hung the person up, anyway, he still has Dian Wei Xu Zhu by his side, even if the person is a little strange, but even at this moment, can he still be helpless Cao Cao.
And looking at the way this person looks, it does seem that there is something important. You must know that Sun Ce went to Xuzhou before, and now it is precisely Xuzhou that has something to do, so it is no wonder that he Cao Cao is so worried and suspicious.
Soon the man was hanged up, and before Cao Cao could ask, the man directly took out a piece of jade pendant and a letter, and cried out, "Lord, our Xuzhou has been attacked by the allied Sun Ce, and now this Xuzhou is going to be unbearable, and please do your best to rescue the lord today!"
