As expected.
As soon as he said this, Guan Yu glared at him angrily. Zhang Fei was even angrier and shouted,"Cao Chun, are you looking for trouble? You know that my big brother has already lost Xu Prefecture, but you're still like this.”
"Don't forget, we're here to help Cao Cao attack Shouchun. It's all Cao Cao's fault that we're in this state today.”
"I, Zhang Fei, am here. I will not allow you to humiliate big brother!”
Cao Chun was speechless.
He finally understood why Advisor Jun had left in anger.
Zhang Fei's words were really too infuriating.
No wonder Lu Bu still wanted to skin Zhang Fei alive.
"Third brother, don't talk nonsense!"
Liu Bei glared at Zhang Fei and cupped his hands at Cao Chun.""I'm sorry to make a fool of myself in front of the general, but this third brother of mine is just a blabbermouth.”
Cao Chun shook his head.
Liu Bei heaved a sigh of relief and his expression turned serious."Thank you for saving me today, General. However, as you can see, the 10,000 soldiers I led today were almost completely wiped out, leaving only 40 to 50 people.”
"I'm afraid it won't be of much help.”
Could it be that Liu Bei was going back to Xiao Pei?
This was just right. Cao Chun smiled and said,"Please return, Duke Liu Bei. I will report today's matter to the lord. After we take down Shouchun, I will reward Duke Liu Bei.”
Liu Bei's expression turned slightly awkward." No, General, you've misunderstood.”
"What I mean is that even if there are only the three of us left, we will still help Cao Gong deal with the bandits.”
"Although we are few in number, we have the ambition to kill the thief!”
Cao Chun stood rooted to the ground, looking at Liu Bei in disbelief.
What was the point of going with just this few people?
In order to gain a reputation, this Liu Bei was too…shameless.
However, he could not refuse." This…If Duke Xuande wants to go, it's fine."”
Liu Bei immediately cupped his fists solemnly.”
"Then please."
Cao Chun helplessly cupped his hands.
Liu Bei nodded.
After waiting for about four hours.
After the army finished cleaning up the battlefield, the corpses could only be buried on the spot.
Liu Bei followed beside Cao Chun, wanting to say something but hesitating.
"If you have anything to say," said Cao Chun with a frown,"it doesn't matter."”
Liu Bei waved his hand repeatedly.”
Cao Chun was puzzled. What was going on with Liu Bei?
Zhang Fei, who was at the side, was straightforward."Cao Chun, your army took the weapons and supplies of my soldiers. Shouldn't you return them to us?”
Liu Bei immediately covered his face, looking ashamed.
Guan Yu also turned his face away.
Cao Chun opened his mouth.
He didn't care about Liu Jun's weapon and said,""Lord Xuande, you can order someone to come and get it yourself.”
"Haha,"
Liu Bei laughed dryly and nodded. Then, he quickly changed the topic and said," Oh right, I saw another cavalry just now. They were quite brave. I wonder who the commander of that cavalry is?”
Cao Chun looked at Liu Bei with a faint smile.
He really wanted to tell Liu Bei the truth.
However, he remembered the military counselor's instructions and smiled.""It's a fierce general that the lord has recently recruited. The five thousand cavalry he commands is called the Bei Wei Army. They were personally trained by him and are even more powerful than the Tiger Leopard Cavalry under my command!”
"Bragging!" Zhang Fei obviously didn't believe it.
If the Tiger Leopard Cavalry could compete with Lu Bu's Bingzhou Iron Cavalry, was there a more powerful cavalry in the world?
Guan Yu frowned.
Liu Bei's eyes were red with envy.
How could this Cao Cao be so lucky? He didn't do anything and a fierce general went to join him.
Looking at him again, he had been in a precarious situation for more than ten years. Even if he personally went to invite them, they might not be willing to follow him, let alone take the initiative to seek refuge.
The difference was too great.
Envy!
Liu Bei thought sourly in his heart.
If only such a fierce general could become his subordinate. Then, he wouldn't have been bullied by Lu Bu and couldn't fight back.
Just as he was thinking about it, the side profile that he had just seen flashed across his mind. Liu Bei quickly asked,"General, can you tell me your name?"
"This is a military secret.”Cao Chun shook his head and declined.
Liu Bei was rather disappointed, but he did not say much.
What followed was silence.
After marching for a few days, they arrived outside Shouchun City. Cao Chun ordered the army to return to camp and settle down the prisoners. Then, he dismounted and walked to the camp with Liu Bei and the others.
Liu Bei looked at Cao Cao's army digging trenches outside Shouchun City and was surprised.""What are they doing?"
"It's my military counselor's plan to break the city. However, this plan involves military secrets. Without the lord's instructions, please forgive me for not telling you directly.”Cao Chun laughed.
"What kind of scheme is this?" Liu Bei was confused." He didn't attack the city or defeat the enemy. Instead, he dug trenches outside the city. It's really strange."”
Zhang Fei said casually," That's right. Cao Cao has an army of 200,000 soldiers. He can take Shouchun in one go. There's no need to go through so much trouble."”
Boor.
Cao Chun glanced at Zhang Fei.
The 200,000 troops were more than half of the lord's assets. If they attacked forcefully, who knew how many people would die?
Guan Yu also said," Since ancient times, only the defenders of the city have dug trenches to defend against the enemy. This is the first time I've seen someone attacking the city do this. This is not the way to use troops.”
Cao Chun was too lazy to explain.
"What kind of person is Lord Cao? Since he did this, there must be a deeper meaning behind it.”Liu Bei, on the other hand, felt that this scheme was definitely not simple. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the three of them to not see through it.
Often, the more unfathomable the scheme, the more powerful it was.
"Who offered this plan?" he asked.”
