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

Chapter 82 Zhang Fei: Why is Big Brother so confused!
The middle of February in the lunar calendar!

Since the beginning of spring, the entire Yanzhou, to be precise, most of the Han state, has started the new year's spring plowing.

Cao Cao has already started planning to attack Xuzhou. The whole Yanzhou is like a large machine in operation, and every second counts.

Except for patrolling the spring plowing land as usual, Xi Yu was still training the soldiers of the supply battalion for the rest of the time.

The current training intensity is slightly weaker than before, but the intensity is still stronger than other camps.

At the moment, there are not a few wild pigs kept in the barracks.

In a month's time, the wild pig that was castrated at the beginning has become a lot fatter now.

"After this morning is over, let's kill those fat and strong wild pigs!"

Seeing the pawns who were still struggling a bit in training, after Xi Yu thought about it, he decided to take advantage of this time to directly supplement the soldiers with food.

Those adult wild pigs, after a period of breeding, are almost ready to be slaughtered.

Except for those piglets that can continue to be raised, there is no need for these adult wild pigs to continue to be raised.

Kill and save trouble.

"Is wild boar meat really edible?"

Dian Wei didn't believe it, and when he heard that Xi Yu planned to kill those wild pigs to feed the crowd, Dian Wei shook his head like a rattle.

Zhao Yun didn't have any opinion.

The Huotou army in the supply camp didn't have much resistance to Xi Yu's order.

Although wild pig meat smells a bit fishy, ​​it is still meat after all. It has been a long time since the entire barracks had eaten meat.

After the current training, the brothers have long been unable to hold on.

Some meat supplements are better than nothing.

The process of slaughtering the pig went extremely smoothly. After a few heart-piercing wailings, the series of processes were over.

The cooks in the camp are all veterans, and their knives are superb, and the pork has been cut up soon.

Xi Yu directed the other party to start dealing with the pork problem.

After a while, the pork has been processed.

Afterwards, he led a few cooks and personally told them how to cook pork.

Although there are not too many seasonings and the like in this era, there are still some.

Although the process of boiled pork in white water is extremely simple, the processed pork does not have much smell of mutton.

When the aroma of pork began to reverberate in the camp, those soldiers had long since kept their mouths watering.

"Gudong!"

Dian Wei's throat couldn't help rolling, he couldn't help his heart beating wildly as he looked at the large piece of pork that was distributed to his bowl.

Didn't it mean that the pork is a bit sour? Why does it smell so good now?

The rest of the soldiers couldn't help it a long time ago. After all the pork was divided, some people couldn't help but tasted it first.

As No.1 began to eat pork, followed by the second, and the third.

The sound of smashing mouths in the camp can be heard endlessly.

When Dian Wei looked up and saw Zhao Yun squinting his eyes and started eating pork, he couldn't help it anymore.

After the fatty meat was stuffed into his mouth, the expected smell did not appear.

It is even a little soft and waxy, and the entrance is extremely creamy.

Before Dian Wei could taste the taste, his throat rolled down in disappointment, and the pork in his mouth rolled down his throat.

"This?"

"how?"

Xi Yu turned his head and glanced at Dian Wei who was a little stunned, and the latter's eyes were obviously stunned at the moment.

The expression on that face was exceptionally wonderful.

"Is this really pig meat?"

It was hard for Dian Wei to believe that if he hadn't watched those people kill the master with his own eyes, he would have basically watched the subsequent series of processes with his own eyes.

Otherwise, it would be hard for him to believe that what he just ate was pork.

However, the burst of taste on his taste buds was so tempting that he was still in a daze until now.

"Didn't I say it before, as long as the pork is handled properly, it is very delicious. When did I lie to you!"

Xi Yu smiled and said to Dian Wei that the pork slaughtered in the camp was divided among 3000 people, but in fact, there was not much in each person's bowl.

Seeing that Dian Wei didn't seem to have tasted the taste, Xi Yu took out the meat from his bowl and put it in Dian Wei's bowl.

"Try again?"

Seeing Xi Yu put the pork in his bowl, Dian Wei didn't hesitate. After he put it in his mouth this time, he didn't make a sound for a long time.

Wild pigs can eat!

It even tastes better than beef!

Such things spread quickly in the barracks!
At the beginning, many people didn't believe it, but with 3000 people, they started to promote it, and even the smell of meat cooked in the supply camp had already spread to other camps.

Things started to pass faster.

"Is pig meat really edible?"

In the big camp, Cao Cao was in a daze for a while when he heard the news from Cao Ying.

However, this thing should be true.

Thinking of Xi Yu's painstaking efforts to get these wild boars and raise them, he knew that wild boars were edible.

But, is it really as delicious as the rumors say?

Not even beef.

Cao Cao didn't believe in such a thing!

However, the pork incident was only an episode after all.

After the spring plowing began, Cao Jun's camp had already begun planning the war against Xuzhou.

Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan returned to Xuzhou early and later, waiting for Cao Cao's army to regroup and set off.

The whole Xuzhou seems to be in a panic because of this.

Inside the Cao army camp.

"Feng Yi, do you want to join the army in this battle?"

After getting ready, Cao Cao asked Xi Yu if he wanted to go to Xuzhou with the army.

"My lord forgot, I am in charge of the supply camp this time, so I will naturally follow to Xuzhou, but this time, my lord should go first!"

Hearing Xi Yu's response, Cao Cao seemed to have recovered.

"Oh, I almost forgot, Feng Yi is now in charge of the supply camp!"

"Since Fengyi is responsible for the food and grass, I don't have to worry about it!"

According to the original plan, when the army of this era conquests, the grain and grass will be one step ahead, but because of the appearance of wheelbarrows and other things to transport grain and grass.

Xi Yu was not in a hurry to set off first.

After Cao Cao took Xi Zhicai to lead the army the next day, he was still unhurriedly checking things like spring plowing in Yanzhou.

If he remembered correctly, according to historical records, in the first year of Xingping, there was a severe drought, especially in Guanzhong.

This severe drought caused the Sili area to suffer the most, and even Yanzhou, Xuzhou and other prefectures suffered a lot of losses.

Right now, there is no need to worry too much about spring plowing in Yanzhou. If there are waterwheels and the like, even if there is a severe drought, it is not a problem for Yanzhou to guarantee the harvest.

……

Yanzhou Chenliu!

Hearing that Cao Cao's army had set off, Zhang Miao's mood was unprecedentedly high at this moment.

"Gongtai, we need to be cautious about what we are waiting for!"

Speaking to Chen Gong, Zhang Miao was more nervous than before.

Now that Cao Cao's army is going to fight, it proves that he did not doubt him, and only needs to wait for the battle in Xuzhou to start.

When the plan goes well, capturing Yanzhou should not be a problem.

"Recently, I have contacted the Yanzhou gentry, and they have long held grudges against Cao Cao."

"As long as we can accomplish things, the entire Yanzhou will change hands in a short period of time, and even Cao Cao will be powerless at that time!"

Chen Gong smiled and stroked the few strands of beard on his chin, and there seemed to be a gleam in his eyes.

"Lu Bu's side has already made preparations. Right now, we just need to wait for the right time!"

……

Xuzhou!

When Cao Cao led the army from Yanzhou, the whole Xuzhou received the news immediately.

Tao Qian, who was still busy entrusting Xuzhou to Liu Bei, already wanted to entrust Xuzhou to Liu Bei as soon as possible.

However, Liu Bei did not accept his entrustment immediately.

On the contrary, Liu Bei sincerely refused to accept it, saying that he was only invited to help, not to plot Xuzhou.

In this regard, although Tao Qian wished to hand over Xuzhou to the other party, he was also a little helpless.

In Xiapi City.

"Brother, the envoy has prepared the great seal of Xuzhou for you, why do you refuse to accept it?"

Zhang Fei couldn't understand Liu Bei's failure to take over the Great Seal.

Tao Qian obviously wanted to entrust Xuzhou to Liu Bei, and his words and deeds did not seem to be fake at all.

Why does my elder brother look unwilling?

"Brother, what the third brother said is true. Since Tao Shijun is willing to entrust Xuzhou to you, why is An not willing to accept it?"

Guan Yu only thought that the matter entrusted to Xuzhou was just a rumor.

I never thought that after meeting Tao Qian, the other party intentionally entrusted Xuzhou to Liu Bei.

Guan and Zhang are naturally extremely happy to hear such news from the other party.

They used to travel around with Liu Bei, but now they can be regarded as having their own territory.

Xuzhou is a good place. If my eldest brother can really be appointed as Xuzhou shepherd, then the two of them will naturally rise as the tide rises.

However, what I didn't expect was that Liu Bei didn't mean to accept Tao Qian's humility at all.

Guan Yu could tell that the eldest brother at home really didn't want the position of Xuzhou at this time.

Guan Yu was also a little puzzled by such a good opportunity.

"Hey!"

Liu Bei glanced at his two brothers and sighed casually.

"Right now, Cao Cao is determined to perish in Xuzhou. A few days ago, spies came to report that Cao Cao had led an army out of Yanzhou, and he will soon come to the city of Xuzhou!"

"How can Brother Wei take over Xuzhou at this time of crisis?"

Tao Qian was sincere, and Liu Bei naturally knew it too.

It's just that he really can't accept Xuzhou's seal at this time.

Wouldn't it be a waste of effort if he took over the Great Seal and failed to reach Cao Cao's attack.

What's more, when he took over Xuzhou at this time, it was spread that he thought he was taking advantage of others!
Liu Bei was unwilling, and Guan and Zhang didn't say much in the end.

the other side.

After Cao Cao led the army to set off, Xi Yu had sorted out the food and grass, and was ready to set off.

"Zilong, you will stay in Yanzhou this time. Don't tell anyone else about the path you led Xiangyong to explore a few days ago!"

Two days before the spring plowing, after confirming that Cao Cao was preparing to go on an expedition, Xi Yu was somewhat wary of Lu Bu.

Although he can kill this matter, Yanzhou is still somewhat unstable.

If not, with the planning of Lu Bu, Chen Gong and others, it would be impossible for Cao Cao to be left with only three counties.

After thinking about it, Xi Yu still planned to let nature take its course and take advantage of the chaos in Yanzhou to completely pull out those internal factors of chaos.

With Xun Yu and Cheng Yu around, at least it can guarantee that Juancheng will not miss.

So, you can give it a go.

The turmoil in Yanzhou can also make Cao Cao see something clearly, which is not a bad thing.

Cao Cao is too anxious right now, whether it was the pacification of Yanzhou or the attack on Xuzhou, everything went too smoothly.

This defeat may calm Cao Cao down.

However, it was naturally impossible for Xi Yu to just sit back and watch Lu Bu enter Xuzhou. Before that, he had asked Zhao Yun to lead people to explore the surrounding terrain.

One of the trails leads directly to Puyang.

With such a way out, it would be easy to deal with Lu Bu when the time comes.

"Don't worry sir!"

Zhao Yun nodded.

He glanced at Xi Yu gratefully.

This time when Cao Jun attacked Xuzhou, Xi Yu didn't plan to take him with him, perhaps because he cared about Liu Bei and others.

If he followed the army into Xuzhou, he would inevitably run into Liu Bei.

At that time, Zhao Yun will be somewhat in a dilemma.

This time, Xi Yu arranged for him to stay in Yanzhou, which was exactly what Zhao Yun wanted.

As for the trail directly leading to Puyang before, although Zhao Yun didn't know what the master's intention was.

But Zhao Yun is not a troublesome person.

He just needs to know that Mr. is useful.

Xi Yu nodded, and after instructing Zhao Yun, he ordered Dian Wei to take the soldiers of the supply battalion one step ahead.

Of course, the training along the way cannot be delayed.

In today's supply camp, because of the supplement of meat, the daily training can already be added.

There is no difficulty in transporting grain at present, and adding pulling force is not a problem in transporting grain.

By the way, Xi Yu also planned to take the supply camp along the way to clean up the bandits in Yanzhou.

……

Early March!
Cao Cao led the army and arrived in Xuzhou. Xuzhou, which was originally a little calm, seemed to have become depressed again with Cao Cao's arrival.

As for the areas that had already been gathered under Cao Jun's command, before Cao Jun arrived, these towns were inevitably agitating for a comeback.

But after Cao Cao's army arrived, such news was suppressed in an instant.

Cao Jun's soldiers and horses are powerful, and these people dare not show any signs at this time.

At the same time, Xi Yu on the other side also began to slowly head towards Xuzhou with the baggage on his back.

"Has Ma Teng arrived in Chang'an?"

Not long after leaving Yanzhou, Xi Yu received a letter from Xun Yu from Yanzhou.

The content of the letter only said that Ma Teng of Liangzhou arrived in Chang'an with an army, and seemed to want to see Emperor Xian.

Not long after Ma Teng arrived in Chang'an, the situation in the entire Sili area seemed to become more tense in an instant.

Ma Teng led an army to garrison on Baqiao, and with Ma Teng's arrival, Li Jue, who originally controlled the Sili area, couldn't bear it.

Ma Teng threatened to meet Emperor Xian, but was rejected by Li Jue immediately.

Naturally, it was impossible for Li Jue to agree to let Ma Teng see Emperor Xian casually.

If it was just Ma Teng and the others, Li Jue would probably not refuse this kind of thing, but who asked Ma Teng to bring the army here!
If the other party is allowed to meet Emperor Xian, then that prince will come over for a while, wouldn't he want the other party to meet Emperor Xian?

What is he?
Li Jue repeatedly refused Ma Teng's request for an audience, and Ma Teng became a little annoyed after following him.

Immediately afterwards, he joined forces with servant Ma Yu, Zuo Zhonglang general Liu Fan, admonishing doctor Zhong Shao, Zhonglang general Du Tien and others.

There is a tendency to fight Li Jue.

After reading the news about Chang'an, Xi Yu didn't take it seriously. The matter of Ma Teng and Li Jue was not a big deal.

If I remember correctly, although the two fought afterwards, Ma Teng was defeated by Li Jue in the end.

In short, Ma Teng followed Han Sui and fled back to Liangzhou in despair.

He casually picked up the second letter from Xun Yu.

Xi Yu opened it again.

This time the content is simpler, it is about Yuan Shu in Huainan.

Since Yuan Shu was defeated by Cao Cao last year, the opponent has obviously become more honest and has no intention of attacking Yanzhou.

But because of Liu Biao, Yuan Shu's thorn in the side has been completely replaced by Liu Biao.

As for Sun Ce under his command, it seems that there is not much movement for the time being.

After Sun Jian's death, all the people under his command were now controlled by Yuan Shu.

Sun Ce seemed to want to ask Yuan Shu for money, but the other party ignored Sun Ce at all.

He casually gave the other party a professional title so that he could recruit soldiers and horses in his own territory, so he sent Sun Ce away.

"Hasn't Sun Ce taken the lead yet?"

After seeing the contents of the letter, Xi Yu frowned slightly, and then thought of the result.

It seems that Sun Ce has not given the Jade Seal of Chuanguo to Yuan Shu at this time. At this time, Yuan Shu's attitude towards the other party is obviously not serious.

When Sun Ce gave the jade seal to Yuan Shu, it was about the time when Sun Ce broke away from Yuan Shu and started to establish his own family.

However, Sun Ce died young after all, and Xi Yu didn't take him seriously at all. The reason why he paid attention to Sun Ce was to see when Zhou Yu would show up.

There was no movement from Sun Ce right now, so Xi Yu naturally didn't pay too much attention.

There was nothing else in Xun Yu's letter. After thinking about it, Xi Yu decided to write a letter to Xun Yu.

About Lu Bu, after thinking about it, he still wanted to remind Xun Yu.

[Brother Wen Ruo, seeing a letter is like meeting you!

The supply battalion led by Governor Yu is approaching Xuzhou. It is expected that the battle of Xuzhou will start in a few days!
Today I have something to tell my brother!

I met Chenliu and Zhang Miao before, and investigated Chen Gong, and found out that these two people had a connection with Lu Bu, who was temporarily living in Hanoi.

……

Yu is worried that he will plan Yanzhou, and I hope that brother will pay attention to it! 】

In the end, Xi Yu still planned to tell Xun Yu what he knew, although in the original history Xun Yu and Cheng Yu completely guaranteed that Juancheng was safe.

However, for things that haven't happened yet, who knows if there will be other variables.

After thinking about it, Xi Yu still wrote a letter to Xun Yu.

"Send this letter back to Juancheng quickly, and be sure to hand it over to the army commander!"

After handing over the letter to the envoy in the army, Xi Yu looked up into the distance.

The spring breeze was blowing, and in the distant fields, the people who were busy farming were all bent over.

Someone is plowing the land with a curved plow.
