Chapter 66 Xi Yu: I read a lot and you can't fool me(2/3)
Even Yuan Shao was not noticed by him, but Liu Bei was different.
Cao Cao ignored Liu Bei's letter and didn't even reply.
When I learned that the old lady Cao was in danger, I was heartbroken. Later I learned that the old lady was fine, and I was able to sleep peacefully.
There was no one in Xuzhou who could stop Cao Cao.
Zhang Fei muttered as he opened his mouth, then raised his brows.
It has been several years since I left Hulao Pass. I am very happy to learn that Brother Meng De has entered Yanzhou!
…
At the same time, Xuzhou City.
It seems that they have learned the news that Cao's army is short of food, and the movements in Xuzhou in recent days are quite obvious.
For Liu Bei, Cao Cao knew that the army was in short supply but showed no signs of retreating. This behavior was really confusing to him.
The dark Jueying hooves were still rubbing against the ground. Three weapons were tied behind Dian Wei, two dark black halberds, and a golden tiger-headed gun.
Zhang Fei was making some noises, but Liu Bei beside him just smiled at him.
Doesn’t Liu Bei know the truth?
Now that he has pacified Yanzhou, if he wants to continue to grow, the best way is to conquer Xuzhou.
"Let me ask him what Cao Cao thinks!"
What is this guy doing with a weapon?
Cao Ren on the other side directly defended the city without giving any orders to fight, and only waited for the arrival of food and grass from the rear.
After learning that Cao's army was short of food and grass, Tao Qian advocated preparing to conquer the lost territory.
"In this world, you are the first one who can transport food on mountain roads, Fengyi!"
If Xuzhou retreats like this, wouldn't it mean that these places will no longer be Xuzhou's territory?
Taking advantage of Cao's army being short of food, Tao Qian ordered Sun Guan and Zangba to attack Cao's army.
Dian Wei not only brought his own double halberds, he also brought a tiger-headed golden spear, which left Xi Yu speechless.
I'm afraid the eldest brother can't bear to attack the city directly.
Xiao He was the first prime minister of the Han Dynasty.
Without saying anything more, Xi Yu whispered instructions and then led Dian Wei out of the house.
Opening the letter in front of me, Liu Bei's letter immediately came into view.
It was also at that time that Cao Cao became passionate about his peerless generals.
Seeing Cao Cao looking directly at herself, Xi Yu felt helpless.
The town in front of us, even though it is now occupied by Cao Cao, is still essentially a town in Xuzhou.
This was a bit unlike the Cao Cao he knew.
Liu Bei's words were fair, but his sending troops this time was not as simple as avenging his father.
I have never seen the army forcibly confiscate food and grass from the people, but nowhere have I seen the people send food to the army on their own.
But the news that Cao Jun has food is indeed true.
He originally thought that after waiting for a few days, Cao Jun would naturally retreat on his own initiative.
Cao Cao didn't care about the other party's friendship with his peers, he already thought highly of Liu Bei.
[Brother Meng De, seeing a letter is like meeting in person.
Although there were only a few people who sent food, this move seemed like a light falling on Cao Cao's heart.
Even Liu Bei is not considered a prince now.
What's even more surprising is that some people naturally gave their own grain and grass to Cao's soldiers.
"But I heard that there was no news that Cao Cao's army had confiscated food in the city occupied by Cao Cao's army. What did Cao Cao think?"
There were only three days left with the rations that the entire Cao camp could sustain, and Cao Cao sat firmly in his military tent.
It’s just that none of the princes from all over the world are taking the lead!
After all, the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty are too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but so what?
At the beginning, Liu Bangneng, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, competed with other heroes and established the glorious Han Dynasty.
Now the world is in chaos, and the princes from all over the world are attacking each other.
Within Linyi Government Office.
"Did Liu Bei write to me?"
Liu Bei thought that Cao Cao would retreat soon. Who knew, at this time, Tan Ma came to report that Cao Cao's army's rations had arrived!
According to the prescribed time, Xi Yu used a wheelbarrow to successfully deliver the grain and grass to Cao Jun's camp.
The latter took the letter, glanced at it, and smiled softly.
"Lord, do you want to reply?"
Liu Bei on the other side was not worried at all.
This time Liu Bei was invited to help Tao Qian, and Cao Cao naturally received the news. None of the princes in the world came to help Tao Qian this time.
"It's nothing more than persuading the lord to withdraw his troops. Tadashi has no opinion!"
There were no large armies to transport food along the mountain road, and there weren't many problems on the road. It originally took five days to transport food via land, but if we took the mountain road, it would take about the same amount of time.
Once a siege begins, it is not easy to end.
And this also made Cao Cao pay more attention to Liu Bei.
"How about I go out and call for formation?"
"Fengyi, you really came on time!"
After setting off from Juancheng, Xi Yu took Dian Wei along the mountain road. In less than half a day, the two of them caught up with the convoy transporting food.
The continuous arrival of grain and grass made Cao's army's momentum increase crazily.
This is really surprising.
Three days have passed since I received the letter from Juancheng.
"Okay, I've stayed up all night, let's go and have a rest!"
Mencius once said that the people are the most valuable, the country is the second most important, and the king is the most important!
Only now did Cao Cao somewhat understand that ordinary people are the foundation of this world.
"Then Liu Xuande is really a talent, he can run really fast!"
Guan Yu didn't say anything. In his opinion, it was the right choice for Cao Cao to stay stationed.
Then the Tibetan tyrants fought in Xiahouyuan in the wild. There was no winner in the battle, so they both stopped fighting!
Over the years, he has known somewhat about Liu Bei's trajectory. Although he is not as good as him, he is one of the few in the world who can catch his eye.
This letter is to persuade Brother Meng De to make peace with Tao Shijun...
In today's Han Dynasty, princes from all over the country are scrambling to increase their strength.
Within a short time, Liu Bei's letter was already on Cao Cao's desk.
However, my eldest brother Renyi, the people in Linyi City are still the people of Xuzhou after all.
Cao Cao frowned slightly when he learned that it was a letter from Liu Bei.
Like the Tibetan tyrants, Sun Guan and others, this time they learned a lesson from Cao Jun.
When the latter heard this, he reached for the letter and looked at it again, with some disdain on his lips.
Liu Bei immediately led his army and Tian Kai back to Juntan City.
This massive conquest of Xuzhou couldn't be that simple.
In order to rush the work, Xi Yu could clearly see that Gan Mei had a few more needle holes in her hands.
He had already received a letter from Xun Yu, saying that Xi Yu was taking the transport team along the mountain road and that the army rations were already on the way.
Cao Cao laughed.
Seeing Xi Yu in front of him, Cao Cao eagerly took the other party's hand. After the two entered the main hall, Cao Cao felt quite emotional.
At this moment, the two armies were waiting and watching, but Liu Bei was not in a hurry to attack the city.
My spies have been sent out to find out the news a long time ago, but there is no news yet.
If he fell into a protracted war, he might mutiny, so he had no choice but to retreat to the town and not leave the city.
Xuzhou's army, which was originally somewhat avoiding battle, suddenly changed its demeanor, and Xuzhou's scouting horses could be seen outside the city all the time.
Later, Lü Bu occupied Hulao Pass like a god, and none of the generals could compete with him.
To be continued...
