Cheng Yu said: "Instead of being afraid because of the futility, it is better to retreat. Tell them to withdraw a hundred miles immediately. When my lord is there, Yu will go and write immediately."

While he wrote a letter to apologize to Cao Cao, he also made arrangements for everything and sent it out immediately. Then he wrote a letter to Lu Bu, Wang Zhong and Liu Daijun.

After sending it out, Cheng Yu ordered people to find Zhang Xiu's whereabouts.

After issuing the orders one by one, Cheng Yu fell silent.

The official said: "I'm afraid that the Jizhou issue is a waste of time. I will no longer have the energy to control its situation."

The most important thing is that almost all of Cao Cao's soldiers and horses are on the front line. They can only resist and keep an eye on them here. It is better to hope that Liu Dai and Wang Zhong can help. It is better not to dream as much, just as a buffer.

I thought that with Zhang Xiu here, even if Zhang Xiu was not very obedient, he could still be regarded as one of my own. As long as he clung to Lu Bu, even if he gave Zhang Xiu some benefits, it would still be worth it. But the odds are against the odds.

.

Why did this piece of embroidery fail so inexplicably?!

"Idiot," Cheng Yu said with a headache.

"It's stubbornness. On the one hand, Zhang Xiu despises Lu Bu after all. Lu Bu is far from what he used to be. With Lu Xian ruling the state and Sima Yi ruling the army, his majesty is no longer what it used to be, and his strength is even more terrifying, but Zhang Xiu is still

The way it used to be, a hard fight can only be considered a forced fight, but if you fall into a trap, you can only lose. Secondly, Zhang Xiu is too concerned about past grievances, and instead loses his foresight. If he can give up his speculation and endure without venting, he will not

If something like this happens, he still won't be able to calm down after all, and it is destined that he will not be able to reach Jizhou." Mu Bin said.

"Is Jizhou destined to be Lu Bu's?!" Cheng Yu's heart twitched, and he sighed: "It's time, it's fate! What a Sima Yi, and now he has shocked Yanzhou with just one battle, and sooner or later Yanzhou will..."<

/p>

As long as Cao Cao can't take care of it, the cities and towns in Yanzhou will of course focus on self-protection instead of taking sides when life and death are at stake. It goes without saying who they will choose.

This is Sima Yi's strength. This man is indeed a talented man who can shake things up so much. This is clearly another Lu Xian. No, he is more sullen and sophisticated than Lu Xian.

God will help Lu Bu succeed.

The curtainman said: "I'm afraid that Yanzhou may not be able to be saved. All the towns have been afraid of Lu Bu's power in the early years. Lu Bu's name is like thunder in Yanzhou's ears. If Sima Yi's kindness is appropriate and Xu Du can't take care of it, he can only

I'm afraid... I think it's more important to protect the other three states as much as possible. As long as Lu Bu doesn't attack Xudu, the mission of the minister and your Excellency will be completed."

Of course Cheng Yu knew the situation, but he couldn't reconcile himself to it after all.

"I would rather die than lose Yanzhou. Otherwise, how could Ming Yu be replaced by Cao Gong?!" Cheng Yu sighed: "It's a pity that Xun Yu left his heart. Otherwise, why bother Sima Yi?! This son is young and only in his prime, and this is already the case.

Calm and composed, with a strong chest, with him assisting Lu Bu..."

I really can’t say any more about the rest.

The guard said: "After all, he was one step behind, otherwise Sima Yi would have been a minister of Xu Du."

Cheng Yu hummed: "It's just another Xun Yu, and he may not be willing to be used if he goes to Xudu."

If I had known this, it would be better to eliminate the problem. But the current situation at that time was that it was really impossible to kill. If I killed him, I would be accused of harming the virtuous. It would be terrible.

The key is that if you want to kill the Sima family, you have to kill them all. You can't just eliminate one without exterminating them all. If you can't uproot them, there will be endless troubles. So it wasn't that Cao Cao couldn't make a decision at that time, but that he didn't really have the opportunity to make a decision.

The letter soon entered Xudu. Cao Cao was already in Xudu. When he heard the news about Yanzhou and saw Cheng Yu's letter, a look of worry appeared in his eyes. Although his expression did not change, he kept wandering back and forth.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Bu's letter also arrived. Cao Cao took it and read it. The letter said that the sharpness of the tip of the knife was hidden in the water. Cao Cao laughed angrily when he saw it. He was so angry that it didn't help, and at the same time, he was too angry with Lu Bu.

Even though they were all destroyed, I still had the nerve to write a letter telling him to reprimand Zhang Xiu. I really refused to let him go.

In other words, he did it, but he still wants to take advantage of it. He will never live up to his words.

Tight response and very timely.

Cao Cao came to discuss with Guo Jia, who said: "No one around Lu Bu is so thoughtful, only Sima Yi."

Of course Cao Cao knew, but he just wondered: "Why did Lu Bu obey him?!"

"Although Sima Yi is arrogant, he has been subdued by Lu Xian. Since he has subdued him, he will follow Lu Bu and assist him. He will only carry a ship on water and dare not capsize it," Guo Jiadao.

Cao Cao sighed and said, "I wish I could win Sima Zhongda."

Guo Jia took the opportunity to say: "Please be patient, my lord, but at this time, the only word is patience."

The word "forbearance" with a knife on the head is really not in line with Cao Cao's character, but if a person acts based only on his character, he will not be able to achieve anything, and he will not be the Cao Cao of today.

Cao Cao also understood that at this time, should he mobilize other troops to stop Lu Bu? If he did this, he would lose both sides and gain nothing.

You can only give up one side and keep the other.

The answer is of course obvious.

Guo Jia knew Cao Cao best, so he was not surprised by Cao Cao's choice. He understood it without Cao Cao saying it himself.

"Why is this piece of embroidery so useless and ruining my big plan?" Cao Cao said angrily: "I wish I could kill him quickly!"

"When he comes back, Cao Cao will argue with him again," Cao Cao said, "if he still has the nerve to come back."

Guo Jia didn't say anything else. Cao Cao was angry now. In fact, after two days, the anger would disappear. It's not that he is really so generous. The main reason is that Zhang Xiu is also very sensitive. The more he is at this time, the less he can kill.

War general, if you are defeated and punished with death, it will only make the general feel cold and alienated. This was the case with Xiang Yu back then. The result was that in the middle of the war, countless people betrayed him and left, saying that he was ungrateful and unvirtuous.

Cao Cao has emotions, but he doesn't need to worry about the real choice, because he knows best how to weigh the pros and cons.

At this time, the more you need to show your generosity and tolerance. Forgiving Zhang Xiu actually appeases the hearts of other generals. That is to say, you should not be afraid of defeat. Victory is of course the best, but don't be afraid of being killed due to defeat.

Surrender without a fight...

Of course you should be rewarded for your merits, but you should not be punished like this for your mistakes.

Liu Bang did extremely well back then, so he conquered the world.

Guo Jiadao: "You should reply to Lu Bu."

Cao Cao was angry when he saw Lu Bu's letter, but he still sat down and wrote the letter and sent it out.

Cao Cao was still puzzled and said: "When Zhang Xiu comes back, Cao Cao will talk to him again!"

Cheng Yu's letter also reached Lu Bu first. Lu Bu read it and passed it to Sima Yi. Sima Yi read it and said with a smile: "Congratulations, lord, Wang Zhong and Liu Dai have retreated hundreds of miles."

"It would be wise to take the initiative to withdraw the camp," Lu Bu shook his head proudly and said, "Take care of Bu's elite camp, Bu is going to send them off."

"Lord..." Sima Yi was speechless and stunned for a moment, unable to stop him. Lu Bu was blown out like a gust of wind, and Sima Yi only chased a piece of cloth.

Then he was very speechless and hurriedly asked the soldiers to follow him.

It’s true that wind is like rain. Why are you going over there to scare Liu Dai and Wang Zhong?!

Don't start a fight.

However, these two people are probably frightened, so they should not start fighting and just stay low.

At that moment, Lu's camp was mobilized, and Lu Bu's elite battalions were sent out one after another.

Many civil servants came to ask the military advisor, and Sima Yi finally told the story and sighed: "Just after reading this letter, my lord insisted on sending them off."

Give it away!? This is showing off your power, right?

Everyone was speechless. After all, after all these things, they had a general understanding of Lu Bu's temperament. After being speechless, they all smiled helplessly.

The guest smiled and said: "Well, it's rude to come and not return. Since Cheng Yu is so polite, I might as well go and see him off!"

When the others heard what he said, they all laughed like crazy, and they all said: "Only the Lord will take the letter seriously when he sees it. Cheng Yu is obviously extremely embarrassed. He wants to give himself a step down, so he said he wants to withdraw."

Camp. Otherwise, how can I say that he was frightened, so he withdrew the camp?! Cao Cao will lose all face!"

He laughed out loud for a moment. Cheng Yu said that Zhang Xiu had offended Lu Bu as a sign of respect, so he withdrew a hundred miles back to avoid his power.

But Lu Bu just went to send him off. Who could figure out what Lu Bu was doing?!

I'm afraid even Cheng Yu himself can't think of it.

Sima Yi smiled and said: "That's fine. These two people were wiped out because of Zhang Xiu, and their livers and gallbladders were severely damaged. Now my lord has gone to see them off, which is more of a deterrent. Although it is an accident, it is also a good thing. They will not dare to do it again.

.And when it comes to Jizhou, they don’t even dare to follow up.”

The beginning is really unpredictable, but the ending is not bad.

Also, who in the world could have imagined that Lu Bu would have such random thoughts?!

This is called surprise.

Fortunately, Sima Yi is not a person of ordinary talent. Otherwise, Lu Bu would have been driven crazy by Lu Bu's unreasonable temper!

When Lu Bu came to see him off, the ground was shaking and the mountains were shaking. They were all cavalry. They were so fast that they could reach the place in less than half a day.

They reported to Liu Dai and Wang Zhong in advance. They were overjoyed when they received Cheng Yu's transfer order. They were also frightened when they saw that Zhang Xiu's entire army was wiped out. They were happily preparing to withdraw from the camp, but who knew?

Such an accident happened, and for a moment they looked at each other, their faces turned pale, and their legs felt weak.

It’s not that they are helpless, it’s that Lu Bu is not an ordinary brave man. Who in the world is not afraid of Lu Bu?!

Even if it wasn't Lu Bu himself who came, but some of his lieutenants and generals from the vanguard camp, they wouldn't be so helpless. But it was Lu Bu himself who came, and at such a sensitive time, he defeated them.

After Zhang Xiu, what was he doing here?!

I forgot to give the order.

Seeing that the generals were so frightened, the others were even more stunned, forgetting to react.

Liu Dai said to Wang Zhong: "Why don't I withdraw the camp first, and you can take custody later, so that I can meet with Marquis Wen and ask him what his purpose is?!"

Wang Zhong was furious and said: "You want to run away?! There is an enemy coming. Instead of preparing for battle, you want to retreat and escape for your life. For such disloyalty, I will retaliate against the lord and behead you!"
