Chapter Forty-Three: Before the Storm!

"Dezu, tap, tap, my father's wound hurts!"

"Father? Why don't you let the maids serve you? Do you want me to dress your wound myself? ”

"Dezu, you are very smart, but you are only clever, why was I caught by Cao Cao?"

Yang Xiu thought for a moment and said, "We have an in-law relationship with the Yuan family, and it is natural for Cao Cao to be suspicious. ”

"Think about the situation when I was arrested that day!"

Yang Xiu began to recall the scene of the day, Yuan Shu called the emperor, the Yang family knew about it relatively early, because Yuan Shu and Yang Biao often corresponded, but Yang Biao did not agree with Yuan Shu's approach, so they kept secret contact with the letters between the two families.

When Cao Cao sent someone to arrest Yang Biao, it was very weird, he came with a letter written by Yuan Shu to Cao Cao, and it was not strange for someone to report it, but it was strange how did such an important object as a letter come into Cao Cao's hands?

"Father means that there are Cao Cao's people in our house?"

"Dezu, of course Cao Cao will send someone to spy on us, but Yuan Highway? Does he have anyone with us? That's the point. ”

When Yang Xiu heard this, he suddenly realized that Cao Cao used people to spy on his ministers, this is certain, but the letter will fall into Cao Cao's hands, not necessarily Cao Cao's people seized it, it is very likely that Yuan Shu slandered Yang Biao and pulled the Yang family into the water, which is the focus of the Yang family's defense.

"Father, I understand, tomorrow I will go to check the people in the house!"

"Dezu, you have great talent and great intelligence, but you need to know that things must be opposed, it is not advisable to be overly smart, and you must be more restrained in the future."

"Yes, Father!"

Yang Biao's father and son were talking secretly in the mansion, and Liu Bei's mansion in Xudu was a song and dance.

"Zizhong? How about the vegetables that Xuande personally cultivated? Did you get into the mouth of Zizhong? ”

"Big brother, your food is really delicious!" Zhang Fei took a clip and ate a large bite of green vegetables.

Liu Bei is holding a dinner party in his mansion, the dishes are basically Liu Bei's own dishes, as well as the food obtained from hunting and fishing, Liu's mansion has been singing every night for several days, and the spies who monitor Liu Bei are already sleepy, Liu Bei wants to rebel? Mr. Guo and Mr. Cheng are too worried!

The lights in Liu's mansion gradually dimmed, and the secret agent also returned to the base, according to the usual practice, Liu Bei and the others were drunk and slept in the hall, and the secret agent had sent people to confirm it several times, and it was all the result.

About an hour later, in the dark hall of Liu's Mansion, "Zizhong, Gongyou?" ”

"Lord!"

In the dark hall, there were no five fingers in his hands, only three sets of white teeth were exposed.

"Cao Cao's people are gone?"

"Well, my lord, please rest assured, we have been observing for many days, and now we are safe!"

"Okay, Zizhong, Gongyou, Cao Cao is preparing to attack Yuan Shu and let me accompany the army, what do you two think?"

Mi Zhu thought for a while and said: "Lord, Yanzhou, the foundation of Cao Cao, we are not easy to shake, if we go elsewhere, there may be a glimmer of life." ”

"What does Zizhong mean?"

"Lord, Cao Cao's crusade against Yuan Shu this time, there must be a big war, as long as the lord fights with all his might, Cao Cao will definitely be rewarded, and then the lord will have a chance."

After Liu Bei heard this, he touched his beard, nodded and said, "Just follow Zizhong's plan!" ”

"We are all grain transport teams, grain transport teams, transporting grain to his wife Cao, fighting Yuan Shu, fighting Yuan Shu!"

In order to train Lu Rui, Cao Cao asked Lu Rui to cooperate with Xu Huang to escort the grain and grass. The so-called three armies have not moved, grain and grass go first, it is very important to calculate the supply and demand of grain and grass, Lu Rui is mainly responsible for the inventory and recording of grain and grass, which is a piece of cake for Lu Rui, who has modern knowledge of high mathematics.

After counting the grain and grass, Lu Rui rode his pony (this is a good horse, Cao Ang's peerless shadow breeding, small peerless shadow, the speed is okay, the body is well-proportioned, black and translucent, handsome!). ), and Xu Huang went to Chen County, but they didn't encounter anything along the way, and they arrived at Chen County safely.

"See the lord!" Hehe, you still have to call the lord on the battlefield, not in Sikong Mansion, the middle father can't be called, and Lu Rui is twelve years old, so he is a young man!

Cao Cao nodded and said, "General Xu and Lu are tired of joining the army, let's go down and rest first!" ”

"No!" Hey? Lu joins the army? It's a little twisty, but joining the army? In the future, the youngest member of Dawei will be me, right? Twelve years old, although he can't be like Ganluo Fengxiang, it's not bad to have one to join the army!

Lu Rui ate something in the barracks, and then returned to the main account, as a member of the army, he also had to observe military affairs. "Hehe, master, the disciple is here!" Seeing Guo Jia in the tent, Lu Rui naturally leaned over, the most important thing is that Guo Jia has snacks in front of him, this Lu Rui's favorite!

"Don't eat up all my things, these are all rewards from the lord, keep some!"

"Isn't it, master, are you so stingy? After returning to Xudu, I can't compensate you? Double! ”

"Cao Gong, the vanguard of the Yuan army has been defeated by us, please Cao Gong move the army!"

No way? This is not Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, when did Cao Cao call Cao Gong? So respectful? By the way, how did the two of them help Lao Cao die? Where did Liu Da'er go?

Cao Cao looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and said, "General Guan, General Zhang has worked hard, the two of you will go to rest first, and this department has its own reward!" ”

"Thank you Cao Gong!" After saying that, the two of them hugged their fists and withdrew.

It's so weird! Zhang Fei and Guan Yu play for Cao Cao? This is a bit ruined, right? No, there must be a conspiracy. Thinking of this, Lu Rui asked, "Master?" They are? ”

Guo Jia glanced at Lu Rui and said, "Rui'er, as soon as the three brothers of Liu Bei entered Chen County, they have made a lot of achievements for the main public road pioneers, as if they want to gain the trust of the lord?" ”

Listening to Guo Jia's uncertain tone, Lu Rui also felt strange, Liu Bei wanted to gain Cao Cao's trust? This way of behaving is a bit weird!

Lu Rui looked at the main account, Liu Da'er is not there? Lu Rui asked, "Master, where did Liu Bei go?" ”

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "I don't know, half a month ago, Liu Bei led his own soldiers to pursue Yuan Shu's remnants, but he was nowhere to be found. ”

No way? Liu Bei disappeared? the stuff?

Just when Lu Rui was pondering, Liu Bei, who was covered in blood, broke in, hugged his fists and said, "Cao Gong!" ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and Cao Cao stepped forward to help Liu Bei and said, "Why is Xuande like this? ”

Subsequently, Liu Bei told his experience, after the remnants of the pursuit of Yuan Shu entered Yuzhou, they encountered a group of remnants of the Yellow Turbans, Liu Bei led people to deal with the Yellow Turban Army, and it took half a month to exterminate the Yellow Turbans and return to the camp with the troops.

After Cao Cao heard this, he was overjoyed, praised Liu Bei as a loyal and brave man, and personally gave Liu Bei wine. Lu Rui looked at Liu Bei and felt that there was something strange, but he couldn't say anything, so he only kept an eye on Liu Bei with the questions in his heart.

Soon the battle of Chenjun ended, Cao Cao, in order to reward Liu Bei for his exploits, named Liu Bei as the pastor of Yuzhou, and let him enter Pei County, while Cao Cao returned to Xudu, because the secret agent returned, Wancheng Zhang Xiu had a strange move.

Lu Rui monitored Liu Bei for many days, but he didn't find anything, only to follow Cao Cao back to Xudu to meet the battle below, the battle of Wancheng, which was of great significance to Cao Cao! (Small more, it belongs to the foreshadowing chapter, the later plot is useful, thank you readers for your support!) )
