Seeing this, everyone in the world came to a realization.
When Chen Gong was announced, they only knew that there were only three cities in Yanzhou that had not submitted to Lu Bu.
Furthermore, just these three cities were enough to hold out against Lu Bu's army until Cao Cao returned to help.
Only now did they understand that the reason these three cities were able to hold on was because of Cheng Yu's indelible contributions.
In Dong'e County, Cheng Li saw this scene and was enlightened."So that's how I got my name.”
"With Cheng Yu here, I will definitely be able to control Yanzhou again. I must recruit Cheng Yu under my command."”
In Dongwu Yang, Chen Gong's eyes were filled with killing intent.""This Cheng Yu must be killed."
At this moment, Chu Feng's voice sounded again.
"In the first year of Xingping, year 194, Cao Cao attacked Puyang and was defeated by Lu Bu several times.
Not long after, a locust plague broke out, and Cao Cao and Lu Bu temporarily stopped fighting.
At this time, Yuan Shao's emissary came to see Cao Cao and expressed Yuan Shao's intention to make peace with Cao Cao on the condition that Cao Cao would move to Ye City.
At this moment, Cao Cao had almost lost the entire Yanzhou and was about to run out of food. After much consideration, he was prepared to agree to Yuan Shao's conditions, but he was opposed by Cheng Yu.”
On the screen, Cheng Yu came to see Cao Cao alone and bowed,""I heard some people say that the lord is preparing to move to Ye City and make peace with Yuan Shao?”
Cao Cao nodded.”
"Lord," Cheng Yu said loudly,"the matter of moving to Lianhe must not be allowed.”
"What did Zhongde teach me?"
Cao Cao hurriedly asked.
"Yuan Shao occupied Jizhou and gradually gained the upper hand in the battle with Gongsun Zan," Cheng Yu continued.
Although this person had the ambition to annex the world, he did not have the wisdom and ability to match it.
The lord asked himself, could he work under this person?
His lord had the bearing of a wise lord. Would he be willing to work for others like Han Xin and Peng Yue?
Although the lord had lost almost all of Yanzhou, he still had three cities to rely on.
In the three cities, there were still no less than ten thousand people who were willing to fight for their lord.
With my lord's might, coupled with Wen Ruo and my plans, with these nearly ten thousand troops, we can still make a comeback and achieve hegemony.
Please consider the matter of moving to Lianhe carefully.”
"Zhongde's words are reasonable.”
After hearing Cheng Yu's words, Cao Cao sighed from the bottom of his heart and decisively gave up on the idea of moving to Lianhe.
Later, with the help of Cheng Yu and the others, Cao Cao successfully defeated Lu Bu and took back Yanzhou.
In the first year of Jian 'an, 196, Cao Cao moved the capital to Xuchang with the emperor and appointed Cheng Yu as the minister of history.
At this moment, Yanzhou was still not completely under Cao Cao's control. He also made Cheng Yu the Eastern General and the governor of Jiyin Prefecture, managing all the affairs of Yanzhou.
In the third year of Jian 'an, 198, Liu Bei was captured by Lu Bu and defected to Cao Cao.
Cheng Yu advocated killing Liu Bei to prevent future troubles, but Cao Cao rejected this suggestion.
In the fourth year of Jian 'an, which was 199, Yuan Shu was defeated and wanted to go to Jizhou to rely on Yuan Shao. Cao Cao was afraid that the combined strength of the two Yuan would increase greatly, so he sent Liu Bei to Xuzhou to intercept Yuan Shu.
Cheng Yu came to see Cao Cao and said,""My lord, Liu Bei is not someone who will always be under others. If we borrow his troops today and let him go, Liu Bei will definitely have second thoughts in the future.”
When Cao Cao heard this, he immediately felt regret. However, Liu Bei had already left and he could not catch up.
Sure enough, after Yuan Shu's death, Liu Bei killed Che Zhou in Xuzhou and rebelled against Cao Cao.
Seeing this, Liu Bei from Anxi County broke out in cold sweat.
Fortunately, Cao Cao didn't listen to Cheng Yu's advice, or else he would have died.
"If I remember correctly, when Dong Zhao's ranking was announced, Dong Zhao also advised Cao Cao to kill Liu Bei, but Cao Cao did not listen.”
"Haha, this Cao Cao usually seems to be quite shrewd, but when it comes to dealing with Liu Bei, he has lost his usual standard several times.”
The people of the world were also discussing animatedly.
"Liu Bei?" Cao Cao's eyes flickered. If you encounter such a situation again, I won't let you go.”
In Yuzhou, Yuan Shu's expression was extremely ugly."Why would I go to Yuan Shao, that bastard son? What happened?"
At this time, Chu Feng's voice continued to ring out.
"In the 200th year of Jian 'an, Cao Cao conferred Cheng Yu the title of Zhenwei General.
Yuan Shao of Liyang wanted to cross south, while Cheng Yu, who was guarding Juancheng, only had a few hundred soldiers.
The situation was critical. Cao Cao sent messengers to inform Cheng Yu that he would increase his troops by thousands to help him guard Juancheng, but Cheng Yu refused.”
On the screen, Cheng Yu said to the messenger,""Yuan Shao has an army of 100,000 and is insufferably arrogant. He thinks that he is invincible.
If he finds out that I don't have many soldiers, he won't attack Juan City so easily.
If my lord increases my forces, Yuan Shao will be wary and will attack Juancheng.
Once they lead a hundred thousand soldiers to attack, even if we have thousands of soldiers, it will be difficult to defend.
Please go back and tell my lord that I don't need reinforcements, so my lord doesn't have to worry about me.”
The messenger brought Cheng Yu's words back to Cao Cao. Cao Cao thought about it and finally listened to Cheng Yu's opinion.
As expected, Yuan Shao heard that Cheng Yu had few troops and did not attack Juancheng.
After Cao Cao heard this, he sighed,"Cheng Yu's courage surpasses that of Meng Ben and Xia Yu."”
