After thinking for a moment, Ye Bei had an idea.
After taking down Wan City, Ye Bei's reputation in the army was now very high.
He might as well take this opportunity to show his face.
Firstly, recommending a candidate to lead the army was a matter of offending people.
It was a question of who to use and who not to use.
Secondly, a new official had to do something.
Wan City was the first place to start the fire.
It was better to take advantage of the opportunity to attack Xu Prefecture and set off another fire.
He wanted to intimidate those who were not convinced and take down Xu Prefecture at the same time!
Thinking of this, Ye Bei said,"
"Duke of Wei, Ye Bei is untalented and is willing to lead his troops to battle!”
As soon as he said that, there was an uproar below the stage.
"Imperial Preceptor is a scholar, it is inappropriate to lead troops to battle.”
"The state preceptor is now the Wei Kingdom's greatest reliance. If something happens, what should we do?”
......
Everyone chimed in, feeling that it wasn't very appropriate for Ye Bei to lead troops.
Even Cao Cao was worried.
"Duke of Wei, you don't have to worry about me. This time, Ye Bei is willing to go out personally.”
Seeing Ye Bei's determination, Cao Cao had no choice but to agree.
"Dian Wei, in this expedition to Xu Prefecture, the Imperial Preceptor is the most important.”
"From today onwards, you must follow the state preceptor and not leave!”
In order to ensure Ye Bei's safety, Cao Cao had sent his personal bodyguard, Dian Wei, out.
Dian Wei quickly agreed.
"Your subordinate will protect Imperial Preceptor even if I die!”
Cao Cao nodded and stood up.
"Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, I order the three of you to follow the Imperial Preceptor.”
"The Imperial Preceptor is as honorable as me when we go to Xuzhou!”
"On the way, if there are people who are not convinced by the Imperial Preceptor, the two of you can kill them first before reporting!”
Then, Cao Cao stood up and followed Ye Bei to the military camp.
Ye Bei stood on the platform and personally ordered the 100,000 soldiers.
Leaving Xudu, they set off toward Xuzhou.
Before they left, Cao Cao had repeatedly reminded them to take good care of Ye Bei's daily needs. He had even ordered Dian Wei to take care of Ye Bei's daily needs.
If Ye Bei came back and lost even half a bit of weight, he would be held responsible.
All the way out of Xudu.
Cao Cao was still worried and called Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun over.
"The enemy in this attack on Xu Prefecture is Lu Bu. He is so brave that almost no one can defeat him.”
"If the situation is not good, I would rather give up 100,000 troops to protect the Imperial Preceptor!”
Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun cupped their hands and bowed.
"Understood!"
Soon, Ye Bei led his army to the borders of Xu Prefecture, and the army headed straight for Xu Prefecture.
When Lu Bu heard that 100,000 elite soldiers of the Wei Kingdom had invaded, he was at a loss and invited Chen Gong over.
"Military Advisor, the Wei army is already at the city gates. What should we do?”
Chen Gong sighed inwardly.
Although he had expected Cao Cao to attack Xu sooner or later, he did not expect Cao Cao to act so quickly.
After taking down Wan City, he immediately rushed to Xu Prefecture.
Chen Gong had originally planned to take advantage of Cao Cao's suspicion and not dare to send troops to gather troops, secretly expand, and form more alliances to disrupt his plans to fight Cao Cao in the future.
Chen Gong sighed helplessly.
"In that case, I can only personally go out of the city to ask for help!”
After saying that, Chen Gong prepared his horse and left Xu Prefecture through the back door.
Before he left, Chen Gong instructed Lu Bu not to leave the city to fight. He had to defend the city until reinforcements arrived!
Outside the city, Ye Bei didn't give the order to attack the city. Instead, he had his soldiers stay where they were.
They were guarding not far from Xuzhou City and surrounded it.
Seeing that the gates of Xu Prefecture were tightly shut, the soldiers began to worry.
"Imperial Preceptor, why is Lu Bu hiding in the city?”
"If this continues, we might not even be able to take down Xuzhou after Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan are done fighting.”
Dian Wei looked at the tightly shut Xu Prefecture and felt extremely depressed.
He had wanted to challenge Lu Bu for a long time, and now that he had the chance, Lu Bu refused to come out, which annoyed him to death.
Ye Bei smiled when he heard this.
"General, don't be anxious. In two days, Lu Bu will definitely go out to fight!”
"Xu Prefecture can be conquered in ten days!"
"Two days to fight and ten days to break the city?" Dian Wei didn't believe it.
Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun shook their heads.
They admitted that Ye Bei had a brilliant plan.
However, they didn't believe that his calculations were so accurate.
"Imperial Preceptor, why did you conclude that Xu Prefecture would be conquered on the 15th? We really don't understand!”
Ye Bei smiled faintly.
"From here, I will go to find Liu Bei and Liu Biao. I will need fifteen days without rest!”
Everyone was puzzled.
State Preceptor, we don't understand!"
Ye Bei pointed at the gates of Xu Prefecture."
"Generals, do you know why Xu Prefecture avoided the battle?”
The generals shook their heads.
"I think this must be Chen Gong's idea.”
"Close the door and stall for time so that we can ask Liu Bei and Liu Biao for help!”
"Alright, all the generals have been busy on the road. Rest well today. There are still important matters tomorrow!”
After saying that, Ye Bei yawned and lay back, closing his eyes to rest.
Late at night, the generals couldn't help but return to Ye Bei's tent.
As soon as he entered, a soldier ran in as well.
"State Preceptor, someone has led a group of people out of Xu Prefecture!”
"Do you know who it is?" Ye Bei asked.
The soldier shook his head.”
"Which direction did Chen Gong go?" Ye Bei asked again.
"Shu Country!" the soldier replied.
Ye Bei waved his hand.
"Got it. You can leave now!"
As the soldier left, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dun, and Dian Wei became anxious.
"Imperial Preceptor, they really sent people to ask Liu Bei and Liu Biao for help!”
Xiahou Yuan said.
"I know." Ye Bei nodded.
"Then why is the state preceptor still so leisurely?”
"If we don't attack the city now, we'll be finished when the reinforcements arrive!”
Xiahou Dun paced back and forth in the military tent, extremely anxious.
"Generals, don't worry. Lu Bu won't be able to get reinforcements!”
As he spoke, Ye Bei stood up.
"If Chen Gong hadn't gone to ask for reinforcements, I would have been worried. But if he did, Xu Prefecture would be finished!”
Ye Bei twisted his neck and pointed at Xu Prefecture.
"If Chen Gong was here, Lu Bu would never have left the city.”
"As soon as Chen Gong leaves, Lu Bu will definitely leave the city to fight. Tomorrow, all the generals will work hard to dampen the morale of Xu Prefecture!”
Dian Wei, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, and the others stood in the tent, staring at Ye Bei in confusion.
After being stared at by these people for a long time, Ye Bei knew that they didn't understand him, so he shook his head helplessly.
"Lu Bu is a heroic and proud man. Tomorrow, the generals will have a war of words.”
"Chen Gong isn't here, and there's no one to stop him. Lu Bu can't hold it in any longer and will definitely go out.”
"At that time, we can defeat him and dampen Lu Bu's spirit!”
"If we are lucky, we might even be able to capture one of their generals!”
After Ye Bei said that, these people nodded in a half-understanding manner.
