"Ha! Liu Da'er didn't expect to run in like that." Seeing this situation, Cao Cao laughed silently. Although your plan was to rush in, but seeing that the enemy actually gave way, no matter how he thought about it, he should have cheated. As a result, Liu Bei ran in without thinking about it, which was even more chaotic than Cao Cao at the time.

"Liu Bei probably has no choice. Under normal circumstances, staying outside and working with Tao Qian is the best way to deal with it. But now, Liu Bei stays outside and has no one to provide him with food. Not to mention that his few people may be annihilated by us at any time, even if we ignore him, Liu Bei will not last long. And the most important thing is that Tao Qian insists on defending the dead, and it is absolutely impossible to rush out to cooperate with Liu Bei. So Liu Bei can only rush in and help Tao Qian defend the city. If three or five thousand people are used to defend the city, it will be somewhat helpful." Guo Jia analyzed.

"This is best. Anyway, we have already made up our minds to siege and not attack and starve them to death. If there are more people in, Tao Qian will lose food some time earlier. Moreover, as an outsider, Liu Bei can still work together when there is enough food and grass, but when there is insufficient food and grass, there will be conflicts within them." Cao Cao smiled. It is conceivable that once there is not enough food and grass in Xia Pi City, first of all, some surrender will definitely stand up. Then, compared to the outsider Liu Bei, you must first satisfy the food supply of your own people. Once the army brought by Liu Bei becomes less food and cannot eat enough, even if Liu Bei can tolerate it, Zhang Fei can't help it! They are here to help, and they don't even care about their own lives. They come to save you Tao Qian, but you Tao Qian cannot even guarantee your rice. What's that?

At that time, there will be situations of criticizing each other. The locals in Xia Pi will accuse Liu Bei and others of wasting their food; and Liu Bei and his party will accuse Tao Qian of being unkind. If Xia Pi could support him for three months, then Xia Pi will only last for two months now with Liu Bei and his party.

"However, Liu Bei is not Tao Qian. My brother Yun's character is also a powerful general like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. I believe the lord also knows something. Although he is also defending the city, Tao Qian cannot stick to it, and Liu Bei's people may run out from time to time to fight." Guo Jia reminded.

Cao Cao touched his chin,

"This is a problem. Use Dian Wei to block Zilong. However, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are unstoppable for the time being. I originally wanted to try your catapult car, but now it seems that it's better to forget it. Continue to surround me like this, let Yu Jin be careful to prevent someone from running out to attack the camp late at night." Cao Cao said.

The winner is the king, and the loser is the enemy! As long as Xia Pi is defeated, no matter what righteousness Liu Bei has now occupied or what Zhao Yun he got, it will be meaningless. This is also the reason why Cao Cao will be so calm now, because he has not found any reason that may lead to failure!

That's why Cao Cao said that Liu Bei was stupid. He came here to die at this time!

"Since Liu Bei has entered the city, why don't we add a fire to them immediately?" Guo Jia suddenly spoke.

"Oh?" Cao Cao's eyes lit up.

Speaking of Liu Bei's troops entering the city, Tao Qian immediately put down his identity and led all the ministers to meet him in person. During the meal, he was full of gratitude and praise. Tao Qian had Mi Zhu, Chen Deng and others, and Liu Bei had naturally the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang. Plus Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong.

Zhao Yun was a powerful general under Cao Cao before, so Tao Qian was very clear about this. Now he heard that Zhao Yun was dissatisfied with Cao Cao's beast-slaughtering, so he left Cao Cao and now defected to Liu Bei. He deliberately rushed back to stop Cao Cao. He couldn't help but express his respect to Zhao Yun alone.

As everyone spoke, someone suddenly came to report that Cao Cao sent someone to send an envoy to send a letter.

Tao Qian hurriedly took it over and took a look, and his face changed. He was confused for a while and suddenly fell on the chair. He sighed,

"Forget it, forgot, since this matter was caused by me, Cao Cao came to avenge his father. In order to stop killing again, I tied up myself to see Cao Cao."

"Lord! No! This is Cao Cao's plan! Even if you die, Cao Cao will not give up on Xuzhou!" Mi Zhu shouted immediately.

"Yes, lord, if you are gone, who will handle the state affairs?" Chen Deng said.

"Please think twice!" Liu Bei also advised from the side.

Tao Qian suddenly turned to Liu Bei and said,

"Duke Liu is a descendant of the imperial family, with great virtue and talent. After my death, Duke Liu can lead Xuzhou!"

Everyone at the scene was shocked. I never expected Tao Qian to suddenly say such words. Is this a blatant test? As a result, Tao Qian continued to say,

"The letter of Cao Cao is very clear. He only wants my life. If I can't believe him, I can give Xuzhou to Liu Xuande. Once I die, if Cao Cao still insists on attacking, the generals and subordinates of Xuzhou can continue to fight against him under the leadership of Liu Xuande. In this case, it will be of no benefit to him.

After hearing Tao Qian's words, no one else responded, Liu Bei immediately said,

"No! Kong Beihai asked Liu Bei to save Xuzhou for a great righteousness. Now that there is no reason, the world will definitely think that I, Liu Bei, is a person with no righteousness!"

Conspiracy! This is definitely a conspiracy! Not to mention whether Tao Qian was testing, just saying that Cao Cao wrote such a letter specifically, it was definitely a conspiracy! Even if you, Cao Cao, really only planned to kill Tao Qian, why did you let him, who was new to Liu Bei, take over Tao Qian, take over Tao Qian, take over the governor of Xuzhou?! Do others trust him Liu Bei? Do others obey him Liu Bei? Why can't others take over Tao Qian and take over the governor of Xuzhou?

Like Mi Zhu and Chen Deng, who is not a virtuous and talented person? And compared to Liu Bei, as an outsider, it is easier for them to command the Xuzhou area as a local gentry! Especially during this war, only by passing the throne to the original direct person would not cause trouble. At this time, it would be strange if there was no internal problem!

So at this time, Liu Bei could not and dared not accept it, no matter how willing he was.

Tao Qian continued,

"Now the Han Dynasty is in decline, the country is overthrown, and the achievements are made. At this time, Xuzhou is rich and has a million household registration. Liu Envoy is in charge of this, so it is impossible to refuse!"

Liu Bei shook his head and said,

"I will never respond to this matter!"

Tao Qian said again,

"I am weak and sickly. I have gradually been unable to handle official duties recently. Please don't refuse!"

Liu Bei shook his head and said,

"Yuan Gonglu is the fourth generation of the three masters, and he is home to the country. He is near Shouchun, so why not give it to the state?"

By the way, Yuan Shu really said that if Tao Qian gave Xuzhou to him, Yuan Shu would come to rescue him.

"What's the point of dry bones in Yuan's tomb?"

The two of you said one by one, one by one, Tao Qian gave up again and again, but Liu Bei just didn't accept it. Seeing that the people next to him couldn't stand it anymore, Guan Yu couldn't help it,
Chapter completed!
