"It seems that something is wrong."
Zhang Fei also figured it out, and his expression changed slightly.
"There must be something fishy going on. The Emperor made the lord the Left General, but made Lu Bu the rear general, in order to intensify the conflict between the lord and Lu Bu.”
"This is Cao Cao's plan to drive the tiger to swallow the wolf.”
Jian Yong said.
"By using Lu Bu to expel our lord, we will cause internal strife in Xuzhou. At that time, Cao Cao will be able to take advantage of the situation to command his troops in Xuzhou.”
"Tsk, that Cao Cao is so cunning." Zhang Fei was furious when he heard that." I knew he wasn't a good person back then. Now, he's scheming against big brother. How despicable."”
Guan Yu nodded and frowned." Then, sir, what should we do now to avoid this calamity?"”
Liu Bei also looked over with a gratified expression.
Fortunately.
He still had Jian Yong.
He could even see through Cao Cao's schemes and give him advice.
Otherwise, the three of them were destined to be schemed against by Cao Cao again.
"This…"
"I still need to think about it."
Jian Yong hesitated and his expression was extremely solemn.
Liu Bei's gratification froze on his face and turned into bitterness.
Yes.
Jian Yong was good at dealing with internal affairs. It was all thanks to Jian Yong that Little Pei could be managed so neatly.
How could he hope that Jian Yong would have an extraordinary strategy?
After consoling himself, Liu Bei said,""No hurry, Xianhe can go back and think about it slowly.”
"Cao Cao just attacked Yangzhou this year. He doesn't have the energy to come back to Xuzhou. We still have a lot of time.”
"My lord."
Jian Yong could not help but break Liu Bei's dream." Although Cao Cao is not coming, this plan will take effect immediately.”
"We shouldn't be guarding against Cao Cao, but against Lu Bu.”
Liu Bei immediately came back to his senses.
That's right.
Cao Cao would not attack Xuzhou.
But Lu Bu could find an excuse to beat up Xiao Pei.
If Lu Bu led his troops here, he would not be able to stop them.
This was bad.
Could it be that he really had to lose Xiao Pei and go back to that miserable life?？
With a heavy heart, Liu Bei suddenly thought of something and his eyes lit up."Oh right, Xianhe, didn't I write to Cao Cao a few days ago, offering to help him seize Xuzhou?”
"If Lu Bu uses troops against us, we can use this opportunity to ask Cao Cao for help.”
"With our previous friendship, it is impossible for Cao Cao not to send troops. After we defeat Lu Bu, we will temporarily borrow a county from him to station. It is better than being trapped in Xiao Pei.”
He had thought it through.
He was no match for Cao Cao.
Since he couldn't beat them, he might as well join them.
He helped Cao Cao destroy Lu Bu and seize Xuzhou, and then changed to another prefecture.
"That's feasible." Jian Yong's eyes lit up." Although Cao Cao is a tiger and a wolf, he doesn't want our lord to be destroyed by Lu Bu. That would only make Lu Bu take control of Xuzhou, which would be disadvantageous to him.”
"So if we ask for help, Cao Cao will definitely send reinforcements.”
Hearing this.
Liu Bei heaved a sigh of relief.
This was comfortable.
As long as there were reinforcements, then Xiao Pei would have nothing to worry about.
Just as he was feeling happy, a guard suddenly came in and said that Cao Cao had sent a messenger to deliver a letter.
Liu Bei quickly ordered someone to bring the letter over and he opened it.
"Big brother, what did Cao Cao say in his letter?”Zhang Fei asked.
Liu Bei closed the bamboo slip and said with a happy expression,""As expected, Cao Cao has the intention to attack Xu Prefecture. In his letter, he asked me to be the spy to keep Lu Bu in check.”
"When you are no match for him, you can ask him for help. He will immediately send reinforcements.”
"As long as I defend Xiaopei, Cao Cao is willing to give Guangling Prefecture to me after I take over Xuzhou. He has also made me the Governor of Guangling.”
Zhang Fei immediately laughed when he heard that."This Cao Cao is quite interesting.”
"Big brother, although Guangling has a prefecture, it faces the sea in the east and the Yangtze River in the south. I'm afraid it won't be possible." Guan Yu said helplessly.”
"That's fine."
Liu Bei smiled and said," Sooner or later, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao will fight. When two tigers fight, one of them will be injured. After Cao Cao breaks through Xuzhou and we take Guangling, we will sit back and watch the tigers fight.”
"At that time, we might be able to take advantage of the situation."
"So big brother already had a plan in his heart.”Guan Yu's tense face also revealed a smile.
He stroked his beautiful beard and nodded slightly.
"Second brother, third brother, this matter concerns whether we can establish ourselves in the world in the future. You must not slack off.”
"We must hurry up with the training of the soldiers. Lu Bu might attack at any time.”
"We should be prepared in advance."
Liu Bei warned.
"Big brother, don't worry. Third brother and I will do a good job.”Guan Yu cupped his fists solemnly.
Zhang Fei also shouted: " Brother, don't worry. I guarantee that I will train a strong army for you. When that Lu Bu comes, I will show him what an elite is."”
"Good!"
Liu Bei nodded his head in satisfaction and looked at Jian Yong, Sun Qian and the others."Xianhe, Gongyou, I'll leave Xiao Pei to you.”
"We will not disappoint you, my lord."
The civil officials cupped their hands.
Seeing this.
Liu Bei was finally relieved, and a peaceful smile appeared on his face.
