114, give it a chance!
Liu Bei smiled and asked, "Yide thinks it's impossible?" β
"No way!"
Zhang Fei first blurted out habitually, thought about it, and said solemnly: "But if we join forces with him, while Cao Cao's army is attacking the city, we will suddenly counterattack...... Under the combination of inside and outside, maybe there is some possibility of defeating Cao Cao. But ......"
Guan Yu continued: "But it's too risky. Second, Lu Bu is not credible, even if Cao Cao is defeated, what good will it do us? Maybe after defeating Cao Cao, he will wipe us out with a backhand. β
"The two virtuous brothers are right!" Liu Bei sighed: "It's just ...... Lu Bu, tiger wolf also. is cunning and repeated, but he has no faith in his words, but although he is unruly, he has no intention of usurping the Han, but he once killed Dong Zhuo and respected the Son of Heaven. And Cao Cao, the Han thief also. If he is allowed to grow, the usurper of the Han dynasty in the future will be the Cao family! The best of both worlds...... I'd rather take it milder. β
"Big brother!" Zhang Fei was stunned and said, "What are you...... Planning to work with Lu Bu? β
Guan Yu was also shocked: "Big brother, have you forgotten the final fate of all those who believe in Lu Bu?" You yourself have been harmed by him, when he was down, he kindly accepted him and gave him a place to live, but he was ungrateful and took away your Xuzhou! β
"How can I easily forget Lu Bu's various treachery and ingratitude? If I had the chance, I would not hesitate to take his life! Just ......"
Liu Bei frowned slightly, his eyes were deep, and he said softly: "I always have a very wonderful feeling." I always feel that today's Lu Bu is no longer the Lu Bu of the past. This time, he may be trustworthy......"
Guan Yu frowned and said, "Big brother, when Lu Bu came to vote three years ago, you also said that you felt that he was credible......"
Zhang Fei also said: "Yes, big brother, when the Eighteenth Route Coalition Army was fighting against Dong, you also said that you felt that Cao Cao was a great loyal minister, and when Dong Zhuo retreated to Chang'an, the princes did not dare to attack, so Cao Cao led his troops to pursue, and the result was almost annihilated...... But within a few years, Cao Cao became a thief...... It can be seen that your feelings, big brother, are not very reliable! β
Liu Bei's face was slightly red, and he laughed dryly: "Two virtuous brothers, this time is really different." Besides, people will change, Cao Cao can change from a loyal minister to a thief, why can't Lu Bu change? This time, I really felt that Lu Bu had completely changed, as if he had changed people......"
Guan Yu said in a deep voice: "So, eldest brother, you decided to believe him again?" β
Liu Bei was silent for a long time and nodded slightly: "Yes, I want to believe him again." Even if I'm wrong again this time...... At least, it can also hit Cao Cao hard.
"Besides, we're used to being chased around, and we're used to being left with nothing again and again. Why not do it again?
"Even if we become nothing again, if we are displaced like a lost dog, as long as our brothers are still there, the blood is not cold, the soul of the Han is not extinguished, and the fighting spirit is still there, sooner or later there will be a comeback!"
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were enthusiastic when they heard this, and said in unison: "Big brother, you can decide this matter with one word, our brothers, swear to follow to the death!" β
"Good!" Liu Bei slapped the table heavily and smiled: "If you have a brother like this, Liu Bei is even lucky!" β
After laughing for a while, he said again: "However, although I have decided to give Lu Bu another chance, the two virtuous brothers, please rest assured, this time, I will no longer trust him unconditionally, and I will definitely be wary of him." At the very least, the next time the envoy meets him, he must first release Ping'er and them back to prove his sincerity. β
Guan Yu said in a deep voice: "No need! We will not trust Lu Bu unconditionally, how can Lu Bu trust us unconditionally? Guan Ping was Lu Bu's only bargaining chip now, and there was no way he could release them. β
Liu Bei said: "That second brother means ......"
"We're going to go down!" Guan Yu narrowed Danfeng's eyes and said slowly: "I want Lu Bu to hand over Xiapi to us, so that we can show sincerity." Of course, not to give up the city after the war. If he breaks his promise after the war, there is nothing we can do about him. Therefore, it is necessary for him to give us a key gate before he can fight back. β
Liu Bei's eyes lit up: "Second brother, talk about it carefully." β
Guan Yu said: "Choose the best players in the army, hide from Cao Jun's eyes and ears, sneak into Xiapi in batches at night, and take over the defense of a key city gate." and send a calm and powerful general commander. After the counterattack began, LΓΌ Bu needed to leave the city with his whole army, leaving not a single soldier in Xiapi City.
"In this way, after the start of the war, the city defense will be fully taken over by our people, and even if Lu Bu wants to break his promise after the war, he will not be able to capture the city in a hurry. When my brother leads the army into the city, Xiapi is as solid as gold, and this city that belongs to us can be completely returned to Zhao. β
Zhang Fei said suspiciously: "Second brother, that Xiapi has been occupied by Lu Bu for two years, and it is already his foundation, can he promise to return the city to us?" β
"He had to say yes." Guan Yu said in a deep voice: "Lu Bu has no credit, if he doesn't make substantive moves, he can't believe a word of his words!" Therefore, if he does not agree to give way to the city, we will not cooperate with him! β
β¦β¦
The next day and night, Liu Bei once again made a personal envoy, sneaked into Xiapi, and met Ouyang Jing.
"Let go of Xiapi?" Ouyang Jing listened to Liu Bei's conditions, and said with a smile: "Does Xuande think it's possible?" β
"Why can't it?" Liu Bei smiled and said: "Although Wen Hou is 'a promise and has a good reputation', Liu Bei is the heart of a villain, and his eyelids are shallow, if he can't see the actual benefits, his heart will really not be stable." β
Ouyang Jing's smile did not change, but he was secretly scolding in his heart, this big-eared thief dared to scold the bald man in front of the monk, fortunately I am not Lu Bu, otherwise Lu Bu listened, I am afraid that he would lose his mind on the spot, and tear Liu Da'er with his hand.
But then again, if it weren't for Ouyang Jing's performance when he met Liu Bei last night, which was completely different from the real Lu Bu, Liu Bei probably wouldn't have talked to him like this.
"Xuande, Xiapi is my foundation, if I give Xiapi to you, where do you call my family and my sons?"
As a reincarnation, Ouyang Jing is just a passerby in this world after all. The territory of the city, to him, does not matter. But now that he is guarding Xiapi as Lu Bu, he must act from Lu Bu's standpoint.
"Wen Hou can go to Shouchun!"
Liu Bei said with a smile: "Didn't Marquis Wen say that after expelling Cao Cao, he would raise troops to fight against the traitor Yuan Shu?" That being the case, why not kill two birds with one stone, both punish Yuan Shu and get Shouchun as the foundation? When the time comes, Bei will also send generals to help Wen Hou. β
Ouyang Jing wanted to laugh at Liu Bei's whimsy, but before the words came out, he was stunned.
Because in his mind, the solemn voice of the Reincarnation Hall suddenly sounded: "Trigger the hidden side quest: Heavenly Punishment of the National Thief!" β
