Chapter 8 Entering the Tiger Prison

Cao Cao!?

Zhou Ping, who was listening on the sidelines, instantly lit up.

"Come here!"

For Cao Cao at this time, Liu Bei still admired it, and after listening to the herald's report, Liu Bei immediately said.

The hearts of the people in the coalition camp are fluctuating, and most of the so-called princes have evil intentions, but Cao Cao is one of the few who really wants to crusade against Dong Zhuo and revive the Han family.

Different from their opponents in the future, Liu Bei and Cao Cao at this time were more like comrades walking on the same road.

And Zhou Ping, who was on the side, secretly transported his true qi and opened the eye of heaven.

Although Cao Cao was wearing regular clothes at this time, and was surrounded by his entourage who were also wearing regular clothes, Zhou Ping still recognized Cao Cao at a glance.

Although Cao Cao's appearance is a little ordinary, the momentum between his eyebrows and the strong sense of purpose are still as conspicuous as standing out from the crowd.

In Zhou Ping's vision of the sky, Cao Cao's body was constantly revealing the blue of the sea, deep and dazzling.

Sure enough, Cao Cao of this world is not an ordinary person.

Thinking of this, Zhou Ping quietly glanced at Liu Bei, who was still a pale red with a ghost.

Uncle Huang, what kind of exercises do you have?

A little curiosity rose from Zhou Ping's heart and was quickly erased.

"General Xuande."

"General Mengde."

The meeting and greetings between the future King Wei of the Han Dynasty and the future Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty were very ordinary.

After a few polite words, Liu Bei changed his words and asked directly.

"I wonder why General Meng De came this time?"

Looking at Liu Bei, a smile emerged from the corner of Cao Cao's mouth.

"Come and solve the general's urgent need."

As he spoke, he motioned to his entourage, who hurried out of the camp and pulled out several cars.

"Grain and grass, now it is the time for Uncle Huang's Nineteenth Route Army to create grass, so I guess I need some grain and grass."

"This, how can this be made!"

Liu Bei hurriedly refused.

Appreciation is appreciation, but Liu Bei and Cao Cao are not closely related, and at best they can only be regarded as understanding. Although Liu Bei was indeed very short of food and grass in his hands at this time, Liu Bei still did not intend to accept this kind of gift that was almost a stranger.

"Yes, it is because it is General Xuande that you are the general, so this matter is made."

After a pause, Cao Cao continued.

"Although the coalition army is powerful at this time, there are only a few people who really want to serve the country, and in Mengde's view, the general is the few people. Instead of leaving these grains to rot in the warehouses of the princes, it is better to give them to the generals to satisfy the hunger of the soldiers who are truly loyal to the monarch and patriotic. ”

Cao Cao's set of rhetoric is sincere and sincere, but it can be regarded as a shallow and deep statement.

Seeing that Liu Bei still wanted to refuse, Cao Cao simply reached out and patted Liu Bei on the shoulder.

"Xuande Gong, everything is based on righteousness."

Not a general, but Xuande Gong.

Liu Bei was stunned, he looked at Cao Cao, trying to find something from the other party's gaze.

After a long time, Liu Bei slowly raised his hand and hugged his fists.

"Righteousness first, Meng Degong, thank you."

"It's the same righteousness."

Cao Cao responded with a fist.

Zhou Ping, who was on the side, saw that his heart was mixed, if he were someone else, he would definitely be moved by this scene, but for him who was familiar with the development after the fact, in addition to being moved, he was more regretful and confused.

These two people, why will they do it against each other in the future?

The urgent need for grain and grass has been solved, although Cao Cao only sent a few cars over, but fortunately, there are not many people on Liu Bei's side, and it is no problem to eat for ten days and half a month.

In the blink of an eye, a few days passed, and the life in the military camp was not as bitter as Zhou Ping imagined, but it was not interesting either.

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu are very concerned about the drills of soldiers, and all the soldiers are lined up all day, but this does not include Zhou Ping, who is the master bookkeeper and is already considered a civilian official.

Nominally, he sits there all day to deal with chores in the army, but in reality, his time plan is still very clear.

When I get up in the morning, I first count the number of people, and then arrange the staff on duty for the day, and then count the grain and grass. After doing this, he will follow Liu Bei and participate in the daily assembly of the coalition forces as a recorder. After returning, he would make a simple summary of the information sent by the coalition scouts and submit it to Liu Bei for processing.

And after that, except for dinner in the middle, it was all his cultivation time.

After cultivating for a few days, the golden cyclone in his body was still that cyclone, and it was possible that it had become a little bigger, but the illusion was also uncertain. He also thought about telling Liu Bei about his cultivation, but after thinking about it, it would be troublesome if he was sent to the battlefield, so this decision was shelved.

However, compared to the slow progress of cultivation, his understanding of the details of this battlefield was much more detailed.

The place where they are now stationed is called Bishui Pass, which was originally guarded by Hua Xiong, but after Hua Xiong's death, this pass was occupied by the Kwantung Army.

Thirty miles to the south, is the famous Tiger Prison Pass, these two passes are each other's horns, guarding the north gate of the capital Luoyang.

However, at this time, these two passes, which were horns of each other, were occupied by the coalition forces and Dong Zhuo's army respectively.

Both sides wanted to take the pass in each other's hands, but one was unable to make a decision due to unaligned hearts, and the other was hindered by insufficient troops at hand, so in the past few days, although there were battles, they were all small-scale frictions.

And this kind of small-scale friction that can be large or small in the eyes of the princes of the coalition forces is a general sweetheart worthy of boasting, and today's general who said at the meeting that he killed the enemy general who attacked at night last night will spread the news that thousands of enemy troops will be broken tomorrow.

In comparison, Guan Yu's real record of killing Huaxiong is much inferior.

Finally, when the grain and grass sent by Cao Cao were about to be eaten and Liu Bei was about to face the dilemma of running out of food again, this small-scale friction finally came to an end - in the long mediation transactions and compromises day and night, the top of the coalition finally made a unanimous decision - to march into the Tiger Prison.

Liu Bei's camp.

At this time, Liu Bei and Zhou Ping went to the coalition camp to discuss military affairs, and Guan Zhang and the two who stayed in the camp also had a secret conversation.

"I'm going to march into the Tiger Prison tomorrow."

Looking at the soldiers who were practicing seriously not far away, Zhang Fei said thoughtfully.

"Not bad."

Guan Yu on the side squinted his eyes and nodded.

"The guard will be Lu Bu."

"Not bad."

"Then Lu Bu is known as a flying general."

"What about the flying general, and he is not known as the champion Hou."

Guan Yu said proudly. The flying general is the title of Li Guang, and the champion Hou is the title of Huo Quai.

"No, I mean, there's something to be done here."

"Huh?"

Guan Yu withdrew his gaze and looked at his third brother, who seemed to be a rough man.

"Killed the flying general Lu Bu, this reputation is not insignificant."

Guan Yu nodded, he was exactly what he planned.

"But I always feel that this Lu Bu was beheaded by you or me like this, isn't it a bit of a waste."

"You mean ......"

"How about letting the eldest brother behead him?"

Zhang Fei turned his head to look at Guan Yu, Guan Yu was stunned, and then a rare smile appeared on his serious face.

"Second brother, what are you laughing at? Is there anything wrong with me? ”

"No, the second brother just thinks that I still underestimate you......"
