The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

Chapter 69 Cao Cao: Brother Xuande, You Are Shameless

early november.

The cold wind was bitter, and the entire sky was covered with a layer of hoarfrost on the original navy blue color.

The weather was a bit gloomy, and the howling cold wind rushed towards his face, like sharp knives scraping his face.

Cao Jun arrived outside Tancheng, Xuzhou today.

At the same time, Liu Bei's garrison and Cao Bao's army who had just arrived for support joined together and lined up outside Tancheng.

The two armies faced each other, and the howling cold wind made the two armies face off, as if there were bursts of chilling air.

Cao Cao is sitting on the horse, wearing armor, and the crimson cloak is fluttering in the wind, which is very conspicuous.

Beside him, Xi Yu was also riding Jue Ying, wearing a Confucian shirt and wearing a dark cloak, as if wrapping his whole body in it.

The entire Cao army is ready to go.

The two armies were separated by a distance of hundreds of feet, and at a glance, they were all densely packed black shadows.

Cao Cao did not expect that Liu Bei would have the courage to confront his two armies.

Xi Yu raised his eyebrows, his eyes subconsciously looked towards the opposite army formation, the distance of hundreds of feet did not seem very real.

It is not so easy to find the figures of the three Liu Bei brothers at a glance.

He regretted a little, why didn't the craftsman help to make the telescope.

"My lord, today's weather doesn't seem very good!"

Xi Zhicai, who was also wrapped in a cloak, was trembling a little. The weather was really too cold, and it just so happened that there was a strong wind today.

Xi Zhicai didn't want to ride on the horse anymore, now that he came with the army, he was so cold that he wanted to huddle on the horse.

The horse's hooves were stomping back and forth, and the hissing sound was endless.

The weapons held by the generals around were a little numb. Looking carefully, the hands of the soldiers in the eye couldn't help but a little red.

The current weather can still be resisted, but after a while, it may be difficult for people to hold weapons.

Xi Yu understands that this is the disadvantage of war in the era of cold weapons.

Combat in winter is itself a great test for soldiers. Of course, there will be many admirable iron troops in the future.

It is more than 40 degrees below zero, and the soldiers who are fighting hard are even more admirable.

"Zhicai, this is the perfect weather for murder!"

Cao Cao sneered and looked at Liu Bei's army in the distance.

At this moment, Xi Yu yawned. In such a confrontation between the two armies, it would be extremely chaotic if they fought.

Looking at the appearance of the Xuzhou army in front of him, there are also tens of thousands of troops. It seems that Tao Qian still has some hopes for Liu Bei.

In Liu Bei's army.

Looking at the dark Cao Jun in the distance, Liu Bei couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

Back then, he and Cao Cao formed an alliance, but the gap between them was not that great.

But now, after only a few years of effort, the convenient city of Yanzhou has hundreds of thousands of generals under him. At present, only Cao Cao is leading the army, and the other two armies have not joined forces yet.

In such a situation, there is such power. If the army converges, how can Xuzhou resist that power.

He was a little envious of Cao Cao, the other party's start was much better than his.

If he, Liu Bei, had the foundation like Cao Cao, he would never be so bad!
When Liu Bei was feeling overwhelmed, Cao Bao beside him couldn't help his heart beat faster.

Although he brought the Xuzhou army several times larger than Liu Bei's, Tao Qian asked him to obey Liu Bei's orders after this support came.

In such a situation, although Cao Bao felt a little unhappy, he still chose to listen to Tao Qian's instructions after all.

After the army was handed over to Liu Bei, the current Xuzhou army can be regarded as able to resist Cao's army.

It's just that the outcome of this battle is unknown!
"General Liu, what should our army do now?"

Cao Bao couldn't help but asked Liu Bei. In his opinion, it would be too reckless for the whole army to start a war with Cao Cao like this.

If you lose, don't you lose everything?

Liu Bei understands Cao Bao's worry. Although he has the right to command the other party, he is not blind enough to really command Cao Bao.

After all, Cao Bao is the general of the Xuzhou Army, and right now he only has the power to command, but not control. If the other party asks him for face, he will naturally give the other party face.

"Don't worry, General, Cao Cao and I have just met!"

"If we can avoid war this time, our army will still focus on avoiding war!"

Liu Bei knew in his heart that if he really fought, he might not be able to beat Cao Cao right now.

After all, the two sides are fundamentally different in the final analysis.

Cao Cao's soldiers are now driven like arms, and his men can really control only a few thousand troops. If the army led by Tian Kai really fights with the Xuzhou army.

Whether you can listen to his command is still the same thing!
"The general wants to negotiate a peace?"

Cao Bao frowned. Could it be that Liu Bei still wants to make peace with Cao Cao now?
The opponent's army is coming to your face, is that something that can be negotiated and resolved?

This Liu Bei is not a mediocrity, is he?
It's too bad for you to believe him. If you entrust the Xuzhou army to this person, I'm afraid the whole Xuzhou will be ruined!
Cao Bao was a little flustered, and the expression on his face changed a bit during this time.

Liu Bei somewhat saw the other party's mind.

But, after all, he didn't want to go to war directly.

"General, once the war starts, the entire people of Xuzhou will be destroyed. Liu is just trying to avoid the war this time!"

"This time is not an opportunity to fight!"

His command is different, the hearts of the generals are not unified, and Cao Cao's troops are so powerful that it is difficult to win if they really fight.

Liu Bei explained carefully to Cao Bao, but the latter didn't say much after he realized it.

Zhang Fei on the side stared, and the Zhangba spear he held in his hand was rattling.

He couldn't bear it anymore, as long as Liu Bei gave an order, he was willing to ride his horse and go directly towards the opponent's army.

"Third brother, just wait here, Yun Chang!"

Liu Bei glanced at Zhang Fei, thought for a while, then turned to look at Guan Yu.

"Accompany me to meet Cao Cao for a while!"

Hearing this, Zhang Fei couldn't help frowning: "What do you mean, brother, why didn't you take me there?"

"Third brother, you!"

Liu Bei originally thought that Zhang Fei was reckless, and it would be bad if there was a fight after a disagreement.

However, thinking that he was there, Zhang Fei still listened to him after all. After thinking for a while, he finally nodded: "Then Yide will also follow. The three of us will meet Cao Cao together today!"

Guan Yu next to him didn't say much. After Liu Bei made his voice, he just led the horse forward and followed Liu Bei with the weapon in his hand.

Seeing this situation, Cao Bao frowned first, but then breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Bei was just three brothers, and he didn't bring his soldiers and horses to go there together. Presumably, he didn't join the enemy in battle.

What's more, another general under Liu Bei was also there, as well as Tian Kai and his men, Cao Bao bowed his hands.

"We rely on General Liu!"

If Liu Bei can really make Cao Cao stop his troops, it would be considered an excellent thing.

The three of Liu, Guan and Zhang nodded in return, and immediately rode their horses towards the direction of the formation of the two armies and approached.

At this time, Cao Cao on the other side soon received a letter from the messenger on the other side.

"I have met the general. My General Liu invited General Cao to speak before the battle!"

The envoy left a word and hurried back.

After hearing this, Cao Cao frowned slightly, just in time to see three figures from the opposing army come out on horseback.

Seeing this scene, Cao Cao couldn't help smiling.

A general beside him subconsciously glanced at Cao Cao: "My lord, beware of fraud!"

At that time, the battle between Liu Guan and Zhang Xiang in Hulao Pass was famous all over the world. At this time, inviting Cao Cao to go there is somewhat worrying.

If it was Cao Cao in the past, he would naturally be a little apprehensive at this time, but he could not help but glanced to the side subconsciously.

It's different now!

There is Xi Yu beside him.

If Feng Yi could be by his side, what would he be afraid of?

He believes that Fengyi is on his side, and if Liu Guanzhang has a different opinion, he will not be afraid at all!

What's more, this time the two armies are facing each other, the opposing general has already invited him to speak.

If he didn't even go, how would the soldiers behind him think of him?
Even if these generals understand, the soldiers under their hands do not understand after all.

When Cao Cao turned his head to look at Xi Yu, Xi Yu beside him naturally understood what the other party meant.

This is a coincidence, if you are not here?
Of course, Boss Cao had other generals by his side, so it would be no problem for Wu Yangyang to bring a few generals with him.

"If brother is going, Yu would like to go and have a look!"

Xi Yu took the initiative to speak to Cao Cao.

He is also looking forward to the legendary three Taoyuan brothers.

"Feng Yi's words fit my heart!"

Cao Cao nodded.

Hearing this, Xi Yu turned his head and glanced at Dian Wei beside him: "Awei, let's go and have a look with my elder brother!"

Dian Wei next to him became excited when he heard that he was mentioned.

He and Xi Yu have not fought a single battle since they delivered food. Now that there is finally a big battle, I didn't expect that I would really have the opportunity to participate in the battle.

Dian Wei was a little excited, and Xi Yu's tiger-headed Zhan Jinqiang, who was carrying his double halberds on his back, said yes and hurried to the two of them.

Cao Cao glanced at Dian Wei, and his heart was determined again.

For a moment, the heroic spirit was extremely high.

"Alright, Fengyi, Dianwei, come with me to meet Liu Xuande for a while!"

……

The wind above the sky seems to have become a little stronger.

Within the army formations on both sides, each other's main generals walked out of the army formations. At this time, tens of thousands of pairs of eyes all raised their heads and looked towards the center.

Armed Forces Center.

It didn't take long for Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others to meet at a distance of several feet.

Liu Bei led Guan Zhang off his horse, and the three brothers approached on foot.

Seeing this scene, Cao Cao dismounted, followed by Xi Yu and Dian Wei.

The six meet at the center.

Cao and Liu looked at each other, and after a short while, they smiled at each other.

"I haven't seen Meng De for a long time, but he still looks the same!"

"Xuande is still like that!"

After the two opened their mouths, the original chilling atmosphere seemed to be lessened in an instant.

"I never expected to meet Meng De now, and it would be like this. It's really embarrassing!"

Liu Bei sighed, with some emotion in his tone.

Cao Cao looked at the other party, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up.

"Isn't Xuande abandoning darkness and turning to light this time?"

Cao Cao opened his mouth and made a sarcasm, knowing that Liu Bei didn't come to surrender, but he said it anyway.

Liu Bei looked unharmed, and Zhang Fei behind him was holding a spear, grinning a little bit.

"Then Cao Cao, what are you talking about? Is my brother like that?"

Zhang Fei was also a little cautious, and cursed people without opening his mouth, which is appropriate to say at this time.

"General Zhang San is still the same as usual!"

Cao Cao smiled at Zhang Fei, and then turned his gaze to Guan Yu: "Yun Chang, goodbye to the prison, Cao misses you very much!"

Zhang Fei grinned, Cao Cao, a bird man, actually called himself that.

Is his attitude towards himself and his second brother a little too big?

What Zhang San, his name is Zhang Fei!

Guan Yu on the side returned a very formal salute: "Thank you, General Cao, for your concern. Yu is all well. Judging by General Cao's complexion, it is not bad."

When Cao Cao was talking to Guan and Zhang, Liu Bei in front of him was also looking at Xi Yu and Dian Wei.

Xi Yu in front of him was dressed as a Confucian scholar, and just one glance at Liu Bei made his heart beat wildly.

Could this person be Cao Cao's Xi Yu?

In Liu Bei's view, the young man in front of him stood tall and straight like a green pine, when the wide cloak was blowing in the cold wind.

The person in front of him didn't change his face, even in this weather, he could feel a bit of cold air all over his body.

And the person in front of him, just standing here, makes people feel like a ball of warm jade.

Gentle and approachable.

As for Dian Wei behind Xi Yu, Liu Bei glanced around a few times.

In fact, Dian Wei's appearance looks not much different from that of his third brother Zhang Fei, and the two are almost of the same type.

The tower-like man was bulging all over his body. Standing there, he gave people a sense of security.

What's more, the double halberds and spears on Dian Wei's body are more obvious.

When Liu Bei looked at Xi Yu, Xi Yu also looked at him.

The two looked at each other, and Xi Yu smiled faintly at each other.

The Liu Bei in front of him was similar to what was described in the history books. He was tall and slender, and his appearance was stronger than that of ordinary counselors.

His complexion is jade-like, and his ears are indeed a little bigger, but they are not the special kind of protruding ears, it's just that the earlobes are a little big.

It's not much different from the Buddha on the sculpture. This appearance, coupled with an extremely generous face, really makes people feel a little better.

As for Guan Yu who was standing behind, his complexion was really red, a bit like the color of jujube.

Such a complexion is indeed somewhat unusual.

When the pair of red phoenix eyes were slightly squinted, a majestic look was fully displayed on the face.

Zhang Fei is not a black-faced image in later generations, but he has a lot of beards. On the surface, he is indeed a burly yellow-faced man with a Chinese character face and beard.

"Could it be that Mister is the rumored Xi Yu, playing Fengyi?"

Liu Bei asked Xi Yu eagerly, with a smile on his face.

Hearing this voice, Xi Yu nodded, "I've seen General Liu!"

After greeting each other, the two sides stood opposite each other.

This time, it seems to be back to the topic.

Cao Cao couldn't help but glanced at Liu Bei. Just as he was talking to Guan Yu, Liu Bei pulled his Xi Yu to talk.

What a Liu Bei, still want to pry his corner?

"Xuande, you have invited me to come and narrate this time. If you have anything to say, just say it!"

Speaking of business, the two sides also resumed their seriousness.

Liu Bei cupped his hands: "Meng De, the reason I invited you here is to persuade you to stop fighting and make peace!"

"This time, we shouldn't be fighting!"

Liu Bei spoke earnestly, acting as if he was doing things for the good of both parties.

Hearing this, Cao Cao frowned: "Xuande, I came here this time to avenge my father. This is the righteousness of human relations. Do you have to stop me?"

Cao Cao's words are just and righteous, and it is only natural to avenge his father.

Liu Bei was a little helpless: "I heard that Mrs. Cao is fine now, Meng De has captured dozens of cities in Xuzhou, Tao Shijun has apologized, can't Meng De take a step back?"

Liu Bei looked at Cao Cao with scorching eyes, wondering if Mrs. Cao is doing anything important now.

Cao Cao's move was clearly intended to annex the entire Xuzhou. Although he understood, there were some things he couldn't say directly.

"Meng De, together with the war, the people of Xuzhou here will surely lose their lives. Meng De, do you want to kill suddenly?"

Cao Cao sneered: "Xuande, why is this so, you are helping Xuzhou this time, don't you also have your eyes on the land of Xuzhou?"

"What kind of massacre? Since Cao Jun entered Xuzhou, has anyone been able to do that massacre for no reason?"

"Then Tao Qian is old now, and his two sons are mediocre people. You are helping Xuzhou this time, what is it not for the land of Xuzhou?"

"Could it be that if this Xuzhou is given to you, you don't want it?"

Cao Cao made a mocking speech, and Liu Bei, who was stunned by the words, didn't know how to answer.

Cao Jun really spoke of benevolence and righteousness to his Xuzhou town, and it was even the only example in the world.

As for the land of Xuzhou, although he wanted to refute it.

He wanted to say that he was only here to help Tao Shijun, but when he thought about what Chen Deng said before.

If the land of Xuzhou is really given to him, can he not?
It can be said that Liu Bei is obsessed with having a foundation for development.

If he could really own Xuzhou, he would not refuse to come if he wanted to.

"Xuande, you and I understand in our hearts, don't waste your time on some words!"

"This land of Xuzhou should belong to me, Cao Cao!" Cao Cao chuckled.

"Meng De's words are wrong. The land of Xuzhou belongs to the Han Dynasty, not a private land!" Liu Bei frowned.

"Since you and I have nothing to talk about, let's see Zhenzhang!"

After leaving a sentence, Cao Cao didn't say anything more, Dian Wei had already brought the horse over, and the three of them got on the horse.

On the other side, Liu Guanzhang and the others followed closely behind on their horses.

Before the conversation was settled, Liu Bei glanced at Cao Cao again when he was leaving.

At the same time, Xi Yu also stared at the three of Liu Bei.

He was thinking, should he take advantage of this opportunity to directly keep the three brothers Liu Bei here, so as to save the chance of three points in the world in the future, or do some other things, which can at least reduce a lot of things.

However, this thought is fleeting.
