Chapter 420

That night, Cao Cao's camp ten miles away from Fubo City was in a turmoil. Zhu Ling led thousands of soldiers to open fire to dig trenches and build fortifications in the direction leading to the city, and he was very stance to settle here.

Behind the camp is particularly quiet and dim.

Until midnight, a nearly 20,000 troops left quietly in the night. The camp was a little noisy, but in a flash, it returned to normal, just like someone who threw a small stone on the calm lake and rippled layers and then calmed down as usual.

Next to the path two or three miles outside the camp, two men in black were covered with dry grass tightly pressed against the stone, without moving. They not only looked like they blended with the night, but also were seamlessly connected with the stone. Except for the eyes of Cao Cao's army, which reflected the firelight and shadows, they seemed like dead objects.

After waiting for more than half an hour, the fire gradually disappeared and the army gradually faded away.

The two of them looked at each other, got up from the stone, kicked their feet gently, and disappeared into the night like two bats.

Two quarters of an hour later, the bats had appeared in the Fubo County Government.

After listening to the report of the two, Guo Jia smiled at Zhang Liao and Li Dian, and signaled that the two generals would sit down aside: "Those who accomplish great things can often endure what ordinary people can't bear. Cao Cao and Liu Bei are both rare heroes in the world, and their character is also engraved with the quality of patience.

Therefore, when Liu Bei got Xuzhou, Cheng Yu's words made Cao Cao give up the idea of ​​raising troops to revenge; not long ago, Liu Bei attacked Yiyang and defeated Yu Jin, and the conflict between Cao and Liu became increasingly fierce, and it was also because of the fake edict of the Prince of Chenliu.

They were like turtles hiding in the shell of a turtle, always stabbing the lord from time to time, but they did not dare to fight openly. Therefore, to deal with them, they had to break their turtle shells and maximize the hatred between them..."

"Military advisor, although the lord often says that suffering a loss is a blessing, why do I think that Cao Cao is suffering a loss every time? Is he still addicted to it?" Guo Jiagang paused and was about to take a sip of water, but Zhang Liao had already taken over the topic and said with a smile.

A sip of water almost spurted out. Guo Jia hurriedly wiped the corner of his mouth and continued, "Although Wen Yuan was a slight and narrow-minded person, Cao Cao was indeed suffering losses and tolerant in these few confrontations. In terms of the thickness of the world's face, Liu Bei ranked second, and no one dared to be the first. If Cao Cao wants to compare shamelessly with him, what else can he do except to be willing to give up on the disadvantage?

Think carefully: Which one of the lords' Qinghe, Tao Qian's Xuzhou, Liu Biao's Cai Yang and even Cao Cao deserved Yi Yang, who was not "borrowed" or "stealed" by him? With more than 10,000 troops in his corps, Guan, Zhang, Chen and Xu Sheng, can he defeat him? So if he encounters such an opponent and is repeatedly defeated, Cao Cao can only be regarded as a bloody disaster for eight lifetimes!"

Zhang Liao and Li Dian laughed loudly.

Guo Jia also smiled and continued, "In the early days of Xuzhou, Cao Cao wanted to take Xuzhou under the banner of his father Gao Taiwei, but he did not expect that Tao Qian actually led Liu Bei to release Liu Bei into the city for help, and finally handed Xuzhou directly to him.

Later in Yiyang, the lord had reached an agreement with Cao Cao on the surface, and as long as Cao Cao did not participate in the Central Plains affairs, he would give the two counties to him. As a result, Liu Bei secretly acquiesced the lord's secret consent and quietly took Yiyang for himself.

If we must say that there is a deep hatred between Cao and Liu, it would be better to directly say that it is Cao Cao's unwillingness toward Liu Bei, resentment and hatred for Liu Bei. He hated him for breaking his plans repeatedly, and was unwilling to be angry that he had suffered losses and worked hard to make a wedding dress for Liu Bei.

Therefore, even if they formed an alliance because of Chenliu, as long as the hatred and resentment are deep enough, so that Cao Cao's army can develop a shared hatred and unite, Cao Cao will naturally not go against everyone's wishes, let alone if I put a Baoxin County before him?"

Zhang Liao nodded, and Li Dian also stood up: "Military advisor, since Cao Cao has led the army to conquer Bao Xin, should we take the Cao camp army under the city and beat Cao Cao up in one fell swoop?"

Guo Jia shook his head and smiled and said, "Mancheng took the initiative to ask for the battle. Guo was very pleased. But this time, Guo hopes that you will be able to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight. Cao Cao hated Liu Bei to the core, and once the battle was fought, it would be incompatible.

If we insist on getting a hand, wouldn’t it make Cao Cao difficult to deal with the beginning and end, and would give Liu Bei another chance? By then, he would be embarrassed with Cao Cao with his old face. Wouldn’t we return to the current situation?

The lord has just experienced the decisive battle of Julu, and has not yet taken over Julu County, nor has he begun to fully eliminate Yuan Shao's vital forces. We are still waiting for a while. Let them guard us for a few county towns! As for the army under the city, peace is the most important thing for the time being!"

The two of them hugged each other and clasped their fists.

Guo Jia said again: "In the past few days, the Cao army at the city may send envoys to talk about their friendship. You are just talking about it. Don't expose me here. In addition, Bo Yan should come here in more than ten days. At that time, please ask Wen Yuan to accompany him to Lujiang for a walk!"

"promise!"

...

Baoxin, the next day, the third hour of You.

The captain at the gate of the city watched the sun gradually slanting across the distant mountains on the mottled city walls, narrowed his eyes slightly, waved his hands to the soldiers at the gate and shouted: "Brothers, we are about to close the door. Let the last station stand in front of the city. Don't let the spies sneak into the city!"

"Boss, don't worry, there are brothers here!" Soldier Ar smiled.

Soldier Yi also slapped the horses: "Boss, the third general has the courage to be unworthy of thousands of men, and General Wen Xiang is also invincible. The army under Wang Li's command fled. Where would there be a small thief who is not eyebrowed to come to stroke the third general's tiger beard?"

"Don't you go, just guard the door well. Where did you come from so much nonsense?" The captain's face changed, and soldier Yi was so scared that he stood at the city gate in a silence.

The captain followed Zhang Fei to fight north for many years, and naturally knew that Zhang Fei and Zhang Fei had always felt guilty towards Wang Li.

Without Wang Li, how could there be Qinghe? Without Qinghe, how could there be Xuzhou? Without Xuzhou, where would Liu Bei grow up? But even so, Liu Bei still attacked Yiyang without morality and then sent troops to occupy Xinxi and Baoxin.

This is ungrateful, this is grudge and revenge!

This made Zhang Fei, who has always been outspoken and righteous, feel so greedy!

The boy was not worried about the doorkeeper on his mouth, so he was not afraid of touching the general's bad head at any time, and dozens of military sticks were beaten to death!

The captain frowned and glanced at Soldier Yi again. He was about to wave his hand to let them close the city gate. Suddenly he heard the sound of rippling cars and horses. When he hurriedly looked up, he saw a carriage running from the end of the road.

The carriage was followed by thirty or fifty strong men dressed in Xuzhou soldiers, one by one, dressed in rags and dust, as if they had traveled hundreds of miles.
