After a few days, Cao Bao was provided with good wine and vegetables, Zhang Fei, which made Zhang Fei enjoy his alcohol addiction. When Liu Bei led his army to arrive, Zhang Fei's front army had not yet left Pengcheng.

Liu Bei stared at Zhang Fei with a pale face and scolded: "Yide, why are you still staying in Pengcheng?"

Faced with Liu Bei's questioning, Zhang Fei's drunkenness woke up most of the time. He touched his head and replied timidly: "Big...Brother, I..."

"Okay!" Hearing Zhang Fei's smell of alcohol, how could Liu Bei not know that his third brother was greedy again? He said impatiently: "You go down and rest quickly!"

Zhang Fei shook his head and said, "No, no, I won't rest anymore. I will lead the army forward and open the way for my elder brother!"

Seeing that Zhang Fei was still going to lead the troops, Liu Bei was so angry that he almost scolded his mother. Then he shouted: "Take a fuck, look at you like this, you are drunk, why are you fighting? Go to bed quickly. Wait for me early tomorrow morning, join forces with me and march into Peiguo together!"

After drinking Zhang Fei back, Liu Bei felt very irritable, and then pulled Sun Gan to discuss the direction of his march tomorrow.

Inside the house, Liu Bei personally poured a cup of tea for Sun and said with a smile: "Yi De is such a person, which makes Gongyou laugh!"

Sun Gan was about the same age as Liu Bei, and he looked white and clean, with gleams flashing in his eyes from time to time. It can be seen that this was a very capable person.

Hearing that Liu Bei intended to excuse Zhang Fei, Sun Gan naturally would not say anything else and replied with a hint of remarks: "General Zhang is a person with temperament. After meeting an acquaintance, he naturally had to drink a few more drinks. However, I heard that the Pengcheng prime minister Cao Bao did not drink alcohol on weekdays. I think he was in a good mood after seeing General Zhang, so he made an exception!"

As the saying goes, the speaker is more intentional, and the listener is even more intentional. Liu Bei's brows gradually frowned and asked, "Gongyou, do you think that Yide's greed and greedy cups were caused by Cao Bao's deliberate actions?"

Sun Gan shook his head and laughed: "I didn't say that, but there were too many coincidences in this matter. Cao Bao was beaten by General Zhang, but now he drinks and chats with General Zhang. It's really puzzling!"

Liu Bei explained: "Hey, Cao Bao was originally the old subordinate of the Tao Envoy. Don't be too suspicious. In my opinion, they are all men in the army, so there is no overnight revenge. After two glasses of wine, the revenge will be resolved!"

Sun Gan sighed, "I hope this is the case, I'm afraid..."

Liu Bei asked, "What are you afraid of?"

Sun Gan shook his head and said, "I don't know what I'm afraid of? Since I came to Pengcheng and saw General Zhang's appearance, I always feel that this matter is not that simple! After all, General Zhang is a pioneer general. Although General Zhang is a little reckless, at this critical moment, he can still distinguish right from wrong, but... why have he been drunk for so many days in a row?"

Liu Bei's heart, which had just calmed down, raised it again with Sun Gan's words, and asked suspiciously: "In Gongyou's opinion, it was Cao Bao who deliberately delayed Yide's march? But why did he do this?"

Sun Gan smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know what Cao Bao intended, but he deliberately delayed General Zhang, and the fait accompli, and it cannot be changed. We have to carefully consider the twists and turns in these!"

Liu Bei was not good at planning and was even less talented in coordinating the overall situation. However, Liu Bei was very good at identifying and employing people. For the boss, being able to barely achieve this is already considered qualified.

Liu Bei asked with a ugly expression: "Does Gongyou think that Cao Bao has defected to Yuan Shu?"

Sun Gan replied uncertainly: "As for whether Cao Bao turned against him, there is no evidence below, so he dare not argue. However, his heart is no longer on our side, which is conclusive."

Liu Bei sighed several times, then pretended to say, "Since I took the governor of Xuzhou, I have been diligent, diligent, hardworking and not daring to slacken at all. Why do they still treat me like this?...Isn't I good to them?"

When Sun Gan heard this, he was stunned and said to himself, "You drove Zhao Yu away as soon as you came on stage. Tao Qian's old subordinates, who were not walking on thin ice and were frightened."

However, Liu Bei was good at treating Sun Gan, so Sun Gan just thought about it in his heart.

Since Cao Bao has two hearts, Pengcheng must not continue to stay. To be conservative, Sun Gan hurriedly advised: "Lord, our army encountered this as soon as we arrived in Pengcheng. We still need to be careful. No matter what intention Cao Bao was, we cannot regard it as nothing happened! It is better to do this. Before the situation is clear, lord, you should move to the military camp outside the city for temporary residence, just to prevent accidents."

Liu Bei frowned slightly. Sun Gan's words had already made his situation quite dangerous.

As a speculative, Liu Bei was obviously very confident in his personality charm. He smiled disinterestedly and said, "Gongyou, but I don't think so. In my opinion, it must be that Cao Bao intentionally made up for his relationship with his third brother after he got the lesson, so he would please his third brother in this way."

Sun Gan was furious about it. He was recommended by Zheng Xuan when he was young. It can be seen that Sun Gan's own talent is really great. Even if he is not a top strategist, he is still considered a middle-class talent.

Cao Bao has many signs and flaws. Although Sun Gan was deeply influenced by Liu Bei, he also saw many unusual features.

Thinking of this, Sun Gan decided to persuade Liu Bei again, but he analyzed: "My lord, it's not that I am speaking evil behind others' backs. Besides, I have no communication with Cao Bao. What's the benefit of slandering him? Please think about it. Our army was out of the war and once ordered to not drink alcohol. General Zhang loved wine and forgot it as soon as he touched it. But Cao Bao was also from a military family, how could he forget this strict order? As the saying goes, there must be evil in the event of abnormality. I dare to conclude that Cao Bao either has something to rely on or is planning to be ill."

Liu Bei's face became darker and darker. As soon as Sun Gan finished speaking, he figured out the key point and thought that Zhang Fei could commit crimes against the wind and delay the military because he was his elder brother and would not punish him too much. Cao Bao had a similar relationship with him, and not least, he was beaten by Zhang Fei, and probably because he was jealous of him.

Even if you are determined to relieve your relationship with Zhang Fei, Cao Bao will never be able to use extraordinary means to maintain the relationship between the two during this extraordinary period.

If the fighter plane is delayed, it will be subject to military law. If Cao Bao still wants to serve Liu Bei, he will definitely not have done such a ridiculous move.

As he thought about it, Liu Bei secretly came to a conclusion that Cao Bao had a different family and did not take Liu Bei's punishment seriously.

Then, at this sensitive period, Cao Bao actually made such a move, and his purpose was obvious and very clear.

Suddenly, Mi Zhu bumped into the door and reported in panic, saying, "Lord, big things are not good, big things are not good."

Liu Bei was shocked when he heard this and thought to himself, things would not come so quickly!

Seeing that Liu Bei was silent, Sun Gan hurriedly asked, "Zi Zhong, what happened? Please tell me slowly!"

Mi Zhu replied anxiously: "I was going out of the city just now and went to the military camp to check supplies, but at the gate of the city, I was stopped by the soldiers under Cao Bao."

"What?" Liu Bei was shocked and asked in disbelief: "Zi Zhong, you are the Zhizhong of Xuzhou. Why do they dare to stop you? Don't you know your identity?"

Mi Zhu smiled bitterly and said, "I said it, but they pretended that they didn't see it. After talking, they just said, 'The spies of Yuan Jun were found in the city'. They were only in martial law after being ordered by your lord."

Sun Gan suddenly realized and exclaimed: "Oh, I finally understand why Cao Bao is. He wants to trap you lord, in the city."

Mi Zhu was already in a state of turmoil, and then he heard Sun Gan's words again, but he was really shocked. Then he looked at Liu Bei in panic.

"What are you panic?" When he was in danger, Liu Bei had no choice but to suppress the panic in his heart and asked, "How many personal soldiers are following us into the city?"

Sun Gan smiled bitterly and said, "There are only four hundred people who include General Zhang."

A trace of firmness flashed in Liu Bei's eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Enough, Zizhong, you go and call Yide here. If anyone asks you, don't say I'm looking for him."

Mi Zhu hurriedly took the order and asked in suspicion: "Pengcheng is a border city, and there are 3,000 guards. Since Cao Bao can make such a ruthless act, it can be seen that the troops in this city are already in his hands, and our number is only 400. How can we break through the siege and escape from the city?"

Liu Bei laughed and said, "Don't worry, with the courage to benefit virtue, and with the help of four hundred soldiers, it is extremely easy to break one of the schools."

Just as Liu Bei summoned Zhang Fei and was about to break through, some people in Cao Bao's mansion in the city were also ready to take action first.

Since getting the news from Chen Deng, Cao Bao and Yang Hong quickly got on the line and decided to surrender to Yuan Shu.

After learning that Cao Bao surrendered, Yuan Shu was so happy that he said on the spot that as long as Cao Bao cooperated with Yang Hong to kill Liu Bei, Cao Bao would be the latter general of his Zhong Dynasty and Zhongyong Hou.

Cao Bao, who had been living in Xuzhou for decades, is now just the prime minister of Pengcheng, equivalent to the prefect of a county, and the official position awarded by Yuan Shu is several levels higher than now.

Cao Bao was naturally willing to turn against him and throw himself into Yuan Shu's arms.

Nowadays, there are not only Cao Bao’s 3,000 border troops, but also commander Ji Ling’s 5,000 soldiers, totaling 8,000. For Liu Bei, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a dragon's pond and a tiger's den.

In Cao's mansion, Ji Ling, Yang Hong and Cao Bao were discussing the matter.

During this period, Cao Bao said worriedly: "When Liu Bei first entered the city, Sun Gan next to him seemed to have seen some flaws."

Yang Hong laughed and said, "Marty, don't worry. Although Sun Gan is a famous scholar in Xuzhou, he is just suspicious and not sure. Otherwise, Liu Bei would not have entered the city."

Ji Ling also laughed and said, "Don't worry, the next general. With this general here, I will definitely call him Liu Bei tonight, and he will never escape."

Cao Bao repeatedly bowed: "A general came out personally, and Liu Bei and his hundreds of people were going to destroy them, so it would be no problem."

"Report..."

At this moment, a soldier hurriedly ran in from outside the door and reported: "Report to the general, the latter general, Yang Situ, just now, Liu Bei suddenly asked someone to wake up Zhang Fei..."
