That's right, the place Sun Qian went to was Xudu. After Liu Bei left him in Nanyang County, Sun Qian was already very dissatisfied, but he couldn't help it. After Fancheng, the grain and grass were not shipped out, and Sun Qian suddenly had an idea. Liu Bei was trapped in Fancheng, which was not what Sun Qian wanted, but Pang Tong's plan could not be completed, which was what Sun Qian wanted.
So after Liu Bei's food and grass were intercepted, Sun Gan left from Nanyang County. He didn't go back to Yuzhou, because he knew that going back to Yuzhou would be of no use, and he might even be beaten up. After all, Fancheng had not been breached, so he abandoned it. Nanyang County left.
The place Sun Qian chose was a place that no one expected, and that was Xudu.
Sun Gan hurried to go to Xudu. Fortunately, Sun Gan had been in Xudu before, so he could naturally enter the city.
"Cao Cao, Cao Mengde!" Liu Bei pondered. The grievances between him and Cao Cao are not small. When Cao Cao wanted to get Xuzhou, it was Liu Bei who stepped in and made Cao Cao fail to do so. After that, Liu Bei inherited Xuzhou from Tao Qian. In order to get the recognition of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bei took Cao Cao's order to attack Yuan Shu in Yangzhou.
Later, Liu Bei was lost in Xuzhou by Lu Bu, and Liu Bei used Cao Cao to regain Xuzhou, but unfortunately, he only persisted for a while. At that time, Cao Cao really trusted Liu Bei, and even Cao Cao still expected Liu Bei He was able to join Cao Cao's command, and even Guo Jia and others wanted to kill Liu Bei, but Cao Cao stopped him.
It's a pity that Lao Cao was still sold by Liu Bei. This is a naked slap in the face. The two families should also have a deep hatred, no worse than Liu Bei and Yangzhou.
But what I didn't expect was that Cao Cao did send food and grass this time.
"Brother, this Cao Cao is not a good guy, but he just wants to watch us fight with Liu Mang from Yangzhou!" Guan Yu has a handsome talent that is not inferior to Zhang Liao, but Guan Yu is too arrogant, which is his advantage , is his biggest shortcoming. But the one in front of him can indeed be seen clearly.
"What the second general said is true!" Sun Qian also nodded, "My lord, when I went to Xudu, I went with the heart of death, thinking that if I don't succeed, I will be benevolent." Sun Qian put gold on his face , but it sounded so pleasant to Liu Bei's ears. After all, Cao Cao's army and Liu Bei's army were considered enemies at that time, but it was just a temporary truce.
"Gongyou has worked hard!" Liu Bei said comforting Sun Qian, especially with Sun Qian's current state, from Nanyang County to Xudu, and then back from Xudu, the journey must be difficult.
"For the sake of the great cause of the lord, it is nothing to suffer a little, but when I went to Xudu, I was entertained. Not only that, when I asked for food and grass, there were no conditions in Xudu. I agreed to come down," Sun Qian said when he went to Xudu.
"The uncle and nephew of the Xun family are very calculating." Now that Cao Cao is still in Hebei, what Xu Du left behind was the uncle and nephew of the Xun family.
It is not so much the calculation of the uncle and nephew of the Xun family, but rather the calculation of Cao Cao. Cao Cao is now pacifying Hebei. Once Hebei is captured, he must attack the Central Plains, and then go south to Jingchu, and a unified Central Plains is not him. What Cao Cao wants is like Hebei. If the Yuan family brothers can unite as one, even if Cao Cao wins the battle of Guandu, he will be dragged down to death in the follow-up long-term war of attrition, but the two Yuan family It's cheating, but it's a big fight over the inheritance of a great general.
Cao Cao gradually became stronger in the battle between the two, and gradually swallowed up the territory of the Yuan family.
And now what Cao Cao also needs is a disintegrated Central Plains. In the Central Plains, there are Liu Bei in Yuzhou and Liu Mang in Yangzhou. Both of them are enemies of Xudu. Cao Cao can't wait to see these two people fight to the death. it's the best.
However, Liu Bei in Yuzhou was really weak. He was suppressed and beaten by Liu Mang in Yangzhou. The battle of Yangzhou, the battle of Fancheng, and the trip to Jingzhou all failed. Now the Yangzhou army is about to approach the city, and Yuzhou will be destroyed soon.
An overlord of the Central Plains is not what Cao Cao wants, so no matter how much enmity he has with Liu Bei, Cao Cao must put down and come to support Liu Bei. Of course, it is impossible to send troops directly. First, Cao Cao's main force is in Hebei, and in Xudu. They are all garrison troops, and the only one belonging to the elite is under Cao Ren's command.
Cao Cao was also afraid of angering Liu Mang in Yangzhou, because the son-in-law Lu Bu and Liu Mang in Yangzhou did not play their cards according to the routine. The anger turned to attack Yanzhou.
He, Cao Cao, is in pain. For the safety of Yanzhou's hometown, he must divide his troops, and now it is a critical moment to deal with the two Yuan brothers.
But not being able to send troops does not mean that you can't support. Although Liu Bei has a little less corporals, the generals are not bad. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are both first-class generals. Liu Bei himself is also able to fight the enemy. It can be said that the defender is also protected by the city wall. It can be said that it is not impossible to fight. Even if it is defeated, it can be delayed for a year and a half. At that time, Cao Cao has almost pacified Hebei.
And what Liu Bei lacks the most now is naturally military rations. Liu Bei is about to become a joke after touching the dust on his nose from Jingzhou. Since you, Liu Bei, lack food and grass, then I will give it to you.
Even if Sun Gan didn't go, Xun Yu of Xudu was going to send someone to contact Liu Bei.
"Let us both lose, so that Cao Cao and Cao Mengde can reap the benefits of the fisherman!" Liu Bei smiled wryly, Cao Cao's calculation is good, he Liu Bei can also see that this is not a conspiracy, this is completely a conspiracy, as long as it is an individual It can be seen, but so what, even if Liu Bei knows that this is Cao Cao's scheme, he will rush forward.
This is drinking poison to quench thirst, and Yangzhou and Yuzhou will not be spared if you drink it until the end, but if you don't drink it now, you will definitely die of thirst after so long.
"Report, report to my lord that Yingshang is eight hundred miles away, and the Yangzhou army is approaching the city. It is difficult to defend Yingshang. Please help me!" A messenger ran in, and the Yangzhou army had already landed in Yuzhou.
"Come on, come on!" Liu Bei closed his eyes and pondered for a long time. He had no choice. The scene in front of him now looks like what Xuzhou was like back then. Lu Bu attacked Xiaopei's Liu Bei, Cao Cao gave Liu Bei food, etc. It was almost the end of the fight, and then the soldiers and horses were dispatched.
"Yangzhou Liu Mang, Xu Du Cao Cao, do you really think that Liu Bei and Liu Xuande are the ones who will win me? It's not certain who will win." Liu Bei's finger was pinched into the palm of his hand, this feeling of being treated as a pawn is really bad. r1152
