The condition of Zhang Fei and Xiahou Yuan made Liu Bei and Cao Cao very nervous. They all knew that it was about to decide the outcome.

Cao Cao ordered Xiahou Dun beside him, "Yuan Rang, I think Miaocai's situation is wrong. If Miaocai is defeated later, you will go to fight Zhang Fei and Rang Miaocai will come back."

Liu Bei in the distance also explained to Zang Ba: "Xuan Gao, I think Yide seems to be defeated. If Yide is defeated, you should attack quickly and fight against Xiahou Yuan so that Yide can come back and rest."

"ah!"

At this time, Zhang Fei and Xiahou Dun roared together and then used the last attack on the other side.

'Bang!'

The two weapons collided immediately, making a harsh sound.

Afterwards, Zhang Fei and Xiahou Yuan both retreated together. The war horses under their crotch could not withstand such high-intensity fights. At the same time, the front legs broke, collapsed to the ground, foaming at the mouth, obviously on the verge of death.

Zhang Fei and Xiahou Yuan were exhausted at this time, falling to the side, constantly gasping.

Xiahou Dun dared to be negligent after seeing this, so he immediately slapped out. Before the person arrived, the voice came first, "Don't panic, I'll help you!"

When Zang Ba saw a general running out of Cao's army, he didn't hesitate and immediately rushed out of the horse and shouted: "Don't panic, I'll come!"

Xiahou Dun and Zangba ran out at the same time, and then fought together.

Xiahou Dun and Zang Ba fought for more than ten rounds, but they all failed to beat the other side. For a moment, the fight between the two became a protracted battle.

Seeing this, Cao Cao said jealously: "How could Liu Bei be so lucky? Zhang Fei was a brave general in the world. At this time, a powerful general who could compete with Yuan Rang came out."

After all, Cao Cao sent several soldiers to help Xiahou Yuan back. Liu Bei also asked his soldiers to help Zhang Fei back like Cao Cao.

Zang Ba knew that he would be defeated by Xiahou Dun, so after fighting him for fifty or sixty rounds, he flew and shot back.

The fighting generals of both sides followed Zhang Fei and Xiahou Yuan at the same time and did not decide the outcome. However, when Zangba and Xiahou Dun fought each other, Zangba took the lead in withdrawing from the battlefield and was judged immediately, so Cao Cao still won a little.

Seeing that the general was not Cao Cao's opponent, Liu Bei immediately returned to Tancheng. Cao Cao did not get much advantage and did not dare to attack rashly. He then ordered the entire army to retreat slowly.

Although Liu Bei lost a little in this battle, the force of the Tibetan Ba ​​and Zhang Fei immediately suppressed Xuzhou, and Liu Bei's reputation increased slightly.

In Tancheng, in the prefecture of the palace.

After Tao Qian woke up, he asked Zhao Yu to tell him what happened after he fell into a coma. After hearing that Zhang Fei was able to fight with Cao's famous general Xiahou Yuan for 200 or 300 rounds without a chance of winning or losing, he could not help but look at Zhang Fei behind Liu Bei, with a pale face.

Tao Qian thought of the move he had asked Liu Bei to be the governor of Xuzhou a few days ago, and then said to Liu Bei: "Xuande, I am old and weak, and I am powerless to command Xuzhou. I hope that Xuande will command the five counties of Xuzhou for the sake of the more than 2 million people in Xuzhou, and resist Cao Cao."

After hearing this, Liu Bei almost cursed. Now, this Tancheng in Xuzhou is still in their hands. Other areas are Cao Cao's territory. But after thinking about it, Liu Bei still modestly refused: "Mr. Tao, I, Liu Bei, are not the ones who take advantage of others' danger. Please don't mention this matter again."

Tao Qian sincerely asked Liu Bei to be the governor of Xuzhou at this time, and then asked his son Tao Shang to take the seal of the governor and said sincerely: "Xuande, now my Xuzhou is in danger, so I will ask Xuande to command Xuzhou."

After seeing Zhang Fei and the bravery of Zangba, Mi Zhu also had a strong desire for Liu Bei to take charge of Xuzhou. He followed him and advised: "Yes, Duke Xuande, as a descendant of the Han emperor, you are also a famous family. You have Zhang Fei and Mi Zhu, two peerless generals. Please don't refuse."

Liu Bei wanted to agree directly, but in that case, no matter whether Tao Qian really wanted him to be the governor of Xuzhou, in the eyes of outsiders, Liu Bei was a treacherous hero in Xuzhou. Liu Bei had always expressed his kindness and righteousness, so how could he do such a fool? He refused again indignantly: "Bi, this time he came to save Xuzhou. Apart from this, there is no other idea. I hope Mr. Tao and his brother Zhong should not force Bei again. If you force him again, Bei would have to leave Xuzhou to express your feelings."

Tao Qian wanted to speak but stopped, and finally sighed helplessly and said, "Oh, it's because we are not lucky in Xuzhou. Let's discuss this matter later. I'm tired, so let's go down!"

After Liu Bei returned to his residence, he called Jian Yong, Zhang Fei and Zang Ba to discuss matters.

During this period, Zhang Fei asked in confusion: "Brother, Tao Qian gave up Xuzhou once before. At that time, the eldest brother was scrupled and did not accept Xuzhou. We understand that Tao Qian gave up Xuzhou again this time, why didn't he accept it?"

Jian Yong also looked puzzled, but he didn't say anything to ask, obviously wanting to wait for Liu Bei's explanation.

The Tibetan Ba ​​on the side almost cursed. Didn’t he follow Liu Bei just to fight for a future? But Liu Bei was fine. He refused to accept Xuzhou again and again, which made Tibetan Ba ​​feel a little uncomfortable.

Liu Bei also realized that the mentality of the Tibetan Ba ​​was a little unstable, so he wanted to explain in public. He asked to the Tibetan Ba: "Xuan Gao, do you don't understand why I did this?"

The Tibetan Ba ​​replied, "I don't understand why the lord is like this."

When Liu Bei heard the tone of Zangba, he said it was broken and pretended to be too far. He quickly explained: "Since Xuan Gao was puzzled, I will explain to you. Now that Xuzhou is in trouble, Cao Cao is involved in Xuzhou in the name of revenge for his father. He is also trying to annex Xuzhou. We are not Xuzhou soldiers, but our identity is just a guest army. If I accept the Xuzhou master, wouldn't I want the heroes in the world to laugh at us for taking advantage of others' danger? Secondly, only Mi Zhu supports us, and no one else expresses their attitude. I don't know their thoughts. At this time, Cao Cao's army is outside the city. If Tao Qian is there, it can stabilize everyone's mind. If I accept the Xuzhou master, I may not be able to suppress it!"

Zang Ba was still puzzled and said, "If anyone doesn't accept his lord as the governor of Xuzhou, I'll take someone to get rid of it."

Liu Bei smiled bitterly and said, "Xuan Gao, I, Liu Bei, have always been spread throughout the world with my wise and kindness. If I do this, wouldn't I be the same as Cao Cao?"

Zang Ba's face looked ugly. He guessed Liu Bei's idea, which is a typical example of a archway that he had to set up a archway if he wanted to be a bitch, but there was no such good thing in the world. Zang Ba had already thought of leaving, and he faintly replied, "Oh!"

Liu Bei looked anxious and hurriedly looked at Jian Yong on the side. After seeing this, Jian Yong immediately said to the Tibetan tyrant: "Xuan Gao, the lord's actions are obviously out of his own considerations. I also saw that Tao Qian really wanted to give up Xuzhou in Tao Qian's mansion just now. The lord didn't accept it, but was afraid that the people of the world would say that we would take advantage of others' danger. As long as we defeat Cao Cao, I expected Tao Qian would give up Xuzhou to his lord again. At that time, the lord can accept Xuzhou legitimately. Xuan Gao is the lord's right-hand man, and by then he will naturally lead the army alone and guard the Xuzhou side."

Jian Yong is worthy of being a famous lobbyist under Liu Bei's account, and he expressed various meanings in one sentence. He not only explained Liu Bei's concerns, but also made a great promise to Zang Ba.

For a moment, Zang Ba was also hesitant, as if waiting for Liu Bei's reply.

After seeing this, how could Liu Bei not understand Zang Ba’s thoughts? He quickly said, “Xianhe is right. The only people I can trust now are Yide, Xianhe, Xuangao, you three. If I really take charge of Xuzhou, Xuangao, you must be the prime minister of Langya, hold an army in your hand and guard the northern border of Xuzhou for me.”

Hearing Liu Bei's promise, Zang Ba felt a little relieved and nodded quickly and replied: "Ba, I will definitely be the lord to die."

Seeing that Zang Ba's thoughts were brought back, Liu Bei immediately looked at Jian Yong and said intimately, it was so dangerous.

The sorrowful clouds in Liu Bei's mansion had just dispersed, but the clouds in Chen Gui's mansion in Tancheng were covered with dark clouds.

Chen Gui had just returned from Tao Qian's mansion, but Zhao Yu, the Xuzhou man, then came over. Chen Gui hurriedly took Zhao Yu to the study to talk.

Zhao Yu and Chen Gui had a good relationship, and he was not polite at the moment, and said straight to the point: "Brother Hanyu, judging from the attitude of the lord tonight, he obviously planned to really give way to the Xuzhou Mu to Liu Bei."

Chen Gui had guessed the purpose of Zhao Yu coming, and there was no change on his face. He only asked lightly: "Why don't Yuanda think about this?"

Zhao Yu spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "What can I think? The Mi family obviously intends to bet on Liu Bei. As long as Brother Hanyu, you nodded again, then Liu Bei will definitely be as stable as Mount Tai after he sat on the governor of Xuzhou. He came tonight just to ask Brother Hanyu what you mean."

Chen Gui's expression changed. It is not difficult to guess from what Zhao Yu said. The defense line in his heart was already loose. If Tao Qian did something to Xuzhou again, Zhao Yu would definitely agree. Chen Gui hesitated in his heart for a while, then his face was gloomy and asked faintly: "Yuanda, can I trust you?"

Zhao Yu was stunned when he heard this, then he looked puzzled and asked with some anger: "Why did Brother Hanyu say this? I have known Brother Hanyu for decades, don't you trust me?"

Chen Gui quickly changed his smile and said, "How come I don't know about Yuanda's friendship with me?"

Zhao Yu replied angrily: "Then why did you say that just now? It really made my old friend feel disappointed."

Chen Gui immediately called the official family, whispered a few words in his ear, and smiled at Zhao Yu, "I'll let you see someone later, Yuanda, you will probably know what I think."
