Chapter 168: Which Onion Is It Again? (a)

Madame, please?

In the royal city, there are probably only three people who can be called ladies.

When Liu Chuang came to Xiapi, it was naturally impossible to hide it from Mrs. Yan. It's just that Liu Chuang doesn't quite understand, why is Mrs. Yan looking for him?

When I came to the back house full of doubts, I saw Mrs. Yan, Diao Chan and Cao Shi all there.

If you change people, it is naturally impossible to enter and exit the back house like this. But Liu Chuang is different, he is Lu Bu's son-in-law, what is the matter with entering and leaving the back house?

"Meng Yan!"

"Uncle Huang."

When Liu Chuang stepped into the hall, Mrs. Yan and the three of them all stood up.

Mrs. Yan called him the cousin, but it didn't mean that Diao Chan and Cao's could also be called that.

After all, Mrs. Yan is Liu Chuang's mother-in-law, and she is Lu Bu's main room. And Diao Chan and Cao's are concubines, so they call Liu Chuang 'Uncle Huang'.

Liu Chuang hurriedly returned the salute, then sat down and asked, "What did Madam call me for?" ”

Mrs. Yan motioned to the maidservants in the hall to step back, and said with a straight face: "Meng Yan, I have one thing I want you to answer truthfully, this time, does the prince have a chance of winning?" ”

Liu Chuang didn't expect that Mrs. Yan found it to ask about it.

He was stunned for a moment, and then replied, "Very little." ”

"Oh?"

"Unless Yuan Shao or Liu Biao send troops, it is difficult for Wenhou to win."

"Then Yuan Shao and Liu Biao, will they send troops?"

Liu Chuang smiled bitterly, "Liu Jingsheng is newly defeated this spring, I'm afraid I don't have the courage to fight Cao Cao again; Yuan Shaoma...... Hehe. ”

He didn't say the result, but that 'hehe' was enough to make Mrs. Yan and the three of them understand what he meant, and they couldn't help but show a solemn look.

Yuan Shao, will he send troops to help?

You must know that Yuan Shao wanted to kill Lu Bu at the beginning. Drove Lu Bu from Hebei to Henan.

The contradiction between the two people is very deep, and they want Yuan Shao to help Lu Bu? That's a lot of difficulty...... In other words, Yuan Shao will not send troops.

"Isn't that a sure defeat?"

Liu Chuang scratched his head, "If you say that you will lose, it may not be."

The key depends on how the in-laws choose...... Do you want to stay in Xuzhou, or find another place? There is a way to take a step back and open the sky, if the Zhangren can abandon Xiapi and retreat to Guangling. At least there can be a respite. If you rely on Xia Pi alone, this battle is sure to be lost. ”

Do you want to leave Xiapi?

Mrs. Yan and Diao Chan Cao glanced at each other, and couldn't help but show a pensive attitude.

Liu Chuang sat on the side, not in a hurry...... Historically, the reason why Lu Bu stuck to Xiapi. There is also no other way out. At that time, Chen Deng led the Guangling soldiers to the north and joined forces with Cao Cao to encircle Xiapi, so that LΓΌ Bu had no room for turnaround. But now, Zhang Liao captured the four counties of Huaiyin, Sheyang, Ping'an and Gaoyou, and Chen Deng abandoned Guangling and fled to Haixi, joining forces with the Xu clan in Haixi to fight against LΓΌ Bu. to be able to breathe.

In other words, Lu Bu now at least has room for maneuver.

Next, it depends on how Lu Bu chooses. It is to continue to defend Xiapi. Or follow Liu Chuang's idea, give up Xiapi, and retreat to Guangling. Although it is said that retreating to Guangling may not be able to win, there is still a glimmer of life. You can stay in Xiapi. That's ten dead and lifeless.

"Meng Yan, you're tired too. Let's go back and rest first. ”

After muttering for a long time, Mrs. Yan issued an eviction order.

Liu Chuang didn't have any dissatisfaction, because he knew that he had already moved Mrs. Yan.

If Mrs. Yan is willing to come forward to persuade her, then Lu Bu is very likely to change her mind and listen to Liu Chuang's advice.

But if even Mrs. Yan persuaded Lu Bu not to change his mind, Liu Chuang also had a plan to protect Mrs. Yan and the others when the time came, and retreat to Guangling first.

If it really doesn't work, you can send someone to borrow a boat from Jiangdong and evacuate Xuzhou.

Next, it depends on how Lu Bu chooses......

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Leave the back house and return to the residence.

It was already late, and the palace of the royal city was still brightly lit.

Thinking that Lu Bu was discussing with the generals, he didn't know what kind of outcome he could negotiate.

Liu Chuang didn't inquire about the situation, but went back to the room to rest...... He's tired! Since learning that Zang Ba surrendered, he has not had a good rest on the way. In addition, after a vicious battle between Suyangshan and Liu Guanzhang, he did not rest immediately, but after Liangcheng observed for a day, he rushed to Xiapi to meet with Lu Bu. So, as soon as he fell, he fell asleep.

Just when Liu Chuang was asleep, a heated discussion was taking place in the Cao army camp outside Pengcheng.

When Cao Cao learned that Liu Chuang had broken through from the encirclement, he couldn't help but sigh with regret.

Although Li Dian sent people to come, it was unfavorable for Liu Bei and the three to block it, so that Liu Chuang broke through from Suyang Mountain and stationed in Liangcheng County. But Cao Cao did not blame Liu Bei, but instead sent people to the Yishui bank to comfort Liu Bei, and someone brought Liu Bei from the Yishui bank to Pengcheng.

Liu Chuang's escape was definitely not Liu Bei's responsibility.

Of course, Liu Bei did not rush to Wuyuan in time, but went to Liangcheng to intercept Liu Chuang on his own initiative, although he violated the military order, but judging from the situation at the time, Liu Bei's decision was undoubtedly the best choice. Occupying Liangcheng and cutting off Liu Chuang's way to the south is a good chess. It's a pity that Liu Bei's luck is not too good, he was occupied by Liu Chuang first, and he himself was seriously injured by Liu Chuang.

It can be said that Liu Bei did his best!

In this case, if Cao Cao blames Liu Bei again, it will be unreasonable.

The reason why Liu Chuang was able to break through was not a crime of war, but it was really Liu Chuang, who was too cunning.

Who would have thought that he would quietly reach an understanding with Lu Zhu?

In the past two years, no one, including Cao Cao, knows about it...... If Guo Jia hadn't been vigilant, it might have led to stricter consequences.

Therefore, Cao Cao really had nothing to say, and there was more or less remorse in his heart.

Liu Chuang is brave and resourceful...... If I had taken him back to Yingchuan, I wouldn't have been able to use him.

But thinking about it again, although Liu Chuang did not expose his ambitions, he could feel that this guy's ambitions were definitely not small.

Even if he arrived in Yingchuan at that time, he might not be able to be used by Cao Cao.

If you don't make a good one, you will raise a tiger instead!

That's fine. What's the use of regretting? Now that Liu Chuang has broken through and joined forces with Lu Bu, there is no reason for the battle of Pengcheng to be delayed.

"Mr. Han Yu, please."

After thinking for a moment, Cao Cao immediately ordered someone to find Chen Jue.

"Mr. Han Yu, I want to conquer Lu Bu today, but Pengcheng is blocking the advance of my army.

I don't want to kill in Xuzhou, whoever wants it, only Lu Bu and Liu Chuang's ears ...... I don't know Mr. Han Yu. Can you teach me? ”

Chen Jue, after all, is a veteran hero in Xuzhou.

His power and prestige in Xuzhou are by no means comparable to those of other idlers.

Even if he had been defeated by Liu Chuang before, he did not change Chen Jue's status in Xuzhou. Cao Cao asked him to find a way, but he found the right person!

Chen Qi smiled when he heard this. He said in a deep voice: "Pengcheng guard general Wang Mo is a native of Le'an, Qingzhou.

When he committed an accident in Qingzhou, he fled to Xuzhou for murder, and he was taken in by me. Later, I arranged for him to work in Xuzhou, and almost no one knew about it except Tao Tao Gongzu. Now Sikong wants to take Pengcheng, I am willing to enter the city and say that the king will be demoted. Let him be attached to the commonplace. ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed, stroking his palms and laughing.

I knew this old guy had a way, but I didn't expect him to hide so deeply.

"Since this is the case, then it will be annoying Mr. Hanyu to work hard. If Wang Mo is willing to surrender, I promise that I will not hurt Pengcheng. ”

"I want to be commanded by the commonplace."

Chen Qi didn't say a word and left the camp overnight.

"Lord, Chen Jue is treacherous and treacherous. It is very famous in Xuzhou.

And Chen Yuanlong, a man of the lake and the sea, is quite calculating. Except after Lu Bu. If his father and son continue to stay in Xuzhou, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate. ”

After Chen Jue left, Guo Jia couldn't help but say: "Why don't you invite his father and son to Xudu, and then gradually weaken the prestige of his father and son in Xuzhou?" ”

Cao Cao smiled slightly, and said softly: "What Feng Xiao said, I don't know.

But as you said, Chen Qi has accumulated a lot of weight in Xuzhou, and it is by no means something that can be eliminated overnight. What's more, there are many scholars in Xuzhou, and if there is no such an old and cunning person left, I am afraid it will be difficult to calm down. He dared to take the initiative to ask for help today, which shows that he has already calculated...... But no matter how Chen Qi calculates, after all, he is a strong party, and it is difficult to become a threat. I'm worried, who can sit in charge after taking Xuzhou? ”

No matter how strong the Chen family is, no matter how deep Chen Qi's resourcefulness is, Cao Cao is not afraid.

It is easy to fight Xuzhou, but it is difficult to govern Xuzhou...... What Cao Cao really worries about is who to send to stay in Xuzhou.

Guo Jia frowned slightly, and he also agreed.

It's just that now is not the time to think about these, the key is to defeat Lu Bu and take Xuzhou as much as possible.

Also, that damn Liu Chuang!

"After the lord takes Pengcheng, when will he attack Xiapi?"

Cao Cao thought for a while, and then replied: "If Pengcheng can be taken tomorrow, the troops will be sent to Pi in two days." ”

"Good!"

Guo Jia nodded in agreement.

The battle of Xuzhou must not be delayed for too long, otherwise it is difficult to guarantee that there will be a difference.

Guo Jia was also worried that Cao Cao had not been in Xudu for a long time, and it was difficult to ensure that the old ministers of the Han family in Xudu did not move. What's more, if Yuan Shao of Hebei sent troops at this time, Xu Du's troops were empty and he couldn't resist at all. Once Xu Du has an accident, that is the biggest trouble.

This battle of Pi is urgent.

It's just that Liu Chuang broke through from Donghai County and joined Lu Bu in Xiapi, but it became a major event in Guo Jia's heart.

He vaguely felt that the variables of the Battle of Xiapi were on Liu Chuang. He didn't want any more accidents, so he had to do it quickly, no matter what. The longer it drags on, the more likely it is to have accidents. As far as Guo Jia is concerned, there has already been such an accident as Elk, and he will never allow it, and there will be a second accident. So, where are the variables of the Battle of Xiapi?

Thinking of this, Guo Jia suddenly frowned.

"My lord, now Chen Deng and Xu Xuan gathered all the people in Haixi, and Liang Xi helped him, and the Wei Mi Department also gathered in Quyang. Why don't you send him troops to attack Ling County, so as to cut off Lu Bu's way south? You know, if Lu Bu abandons Pi and goes to Guangling, I'm afraid it will be another bitter battle. ”

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and then his color changed.

Guo Jia's reminder made him immediately realize that Lu Bu seemed to have a way back.

"You're saying that Lu Bu might abandon the city and go south?"

Guo Jia pondered for a moment and said, "It's not easy for me to judge now, but I know that Liu Chuang is definitely not a person who is waiting to be killed, and he may be able to fight the trapped beasts." The lord went east to conquer Xuzhou, the longer the time dragged on, the longer the battle line was stretched, and the more benefits he would have with Lu Bu. If I were Liu Chuang, I would definitely persuade Lu Bu to go south, but I would not stick to Xiapi...... You must know that although the city of Xiapi is high and thick, it is a lonely city. ”

Cao Cao listened to it and thought so.

"In that case, then I will immediately send someone to inform Chen Deng."

PS: I wanted to finish writing it in one go, but I was really sleepy.

Today's blind date is not bad, and it will be eleven o'clock when I get home...... The second is only 3,000 words.
