Chen Gong also regained his composure and said with a wry smile, "If we choose to join forces with Gongsun Zan to attack Yuan Shao together, if Yuan Shao is dissatisfied, let him turn around and attack Yanzhou.
At this time, Gongsun Zan retreated, leaving us to fight and lose both sides, and then he came out to clean up the mess. "
Lu Bu couldn't help but be frightened when he heard this, "Gongtai, do you think this is possible?"
Chen Gong nodded, "Gongsun Zan is known as General White Horse. Everyone in Youzhou knows that this man is extremely cruel and kills without restraint. He even harmed the shepherds of Youzhou. You can imagine what this man is like."
Hearing this, Lu Bu also remembered what the lonely Xianyu said, and realized that what Chen Gong said was true, and couldn't help but frown.
"Gongtai, do you think that Gongsun Zan also has this intention to unite with us?"
Chen Gong hesitated for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile, "I don't know, but now that Gongsun Zan is facing danger, it is not impossible to bring the war to Yanzhou and then take the opportunity to regain his strength."
Lu Bu slammed the table angrily and shouted sternly, "Gongsun Zan, I originally wanted to help you, but I didn't expect you to have this intention. It's really hateful."
After hearing this, Chen Gong waved his hands hurriedly, "Marquis Wen, this is just a guess. As for what it is, I'm not sure. I just said it in advance so that everyone can be on guard."
Lu Bu nodded, his brows gradually furrowed, but he was thinking about this matter in his heart, how to make a decision?
Should we unite or reject?
If Gongsun Zan really wants to unite, this is really a good opportunity to defeat Yuan Shao.
Gongsun Zan is not weak in strength. At his peak, even Yuan Shao was quite afraid of him, so you can imagine how strong he must be.
Now that he has been defeated by Yuan Shao several times, his strength is no longer as good as before. Perhaps it is for this reason that he wants to join forces with himself to defeat Yuan Shao.
More importantly, Lu Bu is now certain that Gongsun Zan must be in the game. In other words, he knows the history and what will happen in the future. He will also know when he will die.
No matter when anyone knows that he will die, he will probably not be reconciled and rise up to fight. This may be Gongsun Zan's resistance.
However, at the same time, Lu Bu also had some doubts in his heart. After Gongsun Zan learned about this period of history and had another adventure, would he be ambitious?
If he is ambitious, his enemies are not only Yuan Shao, but also himself, and even Cao Mengde and Liu Bei hiding in Xuzhou.
Chen Gong said tentatively, "Marquis Wen, why don't you send someone to Youzhou to investigate and see how the situation is there?"
Lu Bu nodded, "That's fine. You can find a few smart people later, preferably from Youzhou. This way they won't arouse others' suspicion. Let's see if we can figure something out?"
Chen Gong nodded, then said goodbye and left to make arrangements for the spies to go to Youzhou.
…
On the second day, Lu Bu was discussing matters with everyone, and someone from the palace came to summon him, asking Lu Bu to come and see the emperor.
Lu Bu felt strange and immediately went to the palace with his guards to meet him.
When he arrived at the palace, Lu Bu saw that everyone had gathered in the hall, Liu Xie was sitting high on the dragon chair, his eyes were full of smiles.
"The general has met your Majesty."
Liu Xie waved his hand, "General Lu, you came just in time. Everyone is discussing things in Xuzhou. What suggestions do you have?"
Yang Biao stepped forward, raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Liu Xuande is a clan member of the Han Dynasty, and now he has occupied Xuzhou. Why not make him a state pastor and manage the place for your Majesty."
Hearing these words, Lu Bu couldn't help but be stunned, and then almost laughed out loud.
Isn't this the plan between two tigers that I thought of yesterday?
Let Liu Xuande be the shepherd of Xuzhou, which would arouse Cao Mengde's dissatisfaction, and the two would naturally fight.
Lu Bu hurriedly handed over his hand and said, "What Yang Taiwei said is true. Liu Xuande is a clan member of the Han Dynasty, so he is suitable to govern Xuzhou."
When everyone heard these words, naturally no one objected. Liu Xie nodded, "Let's handle this matter like this. Appoint Liu Xuande as the pastor of Xuzhou. I hope he can take care of himself."
Lu Bu smiled secretly in his heart. Although Liu Xuande was promoted this time, he also carried a burden unknowingly.
Cao Mengde has great ambitions. He will definitely not just want to occupy Xiaopei, but will definitely plot Xuzhou.
Moreover, according to Lu Bu's guess, Cao Mengde's plan to plot against Liu Bei is very likely to be the same as the lonely Xianyu said, and he will definitely succeed.
Then Cao Mengde occupied Xuzhou and drove Liu Xuande away.
However, the imperial court has made Liu Xuande the Mu of Xuzhou, and he has the responsibility to take Xuzhou back. If he dares not to go, he will immediately be ordered to attack Xuzhou.
In this way, when the two of them are both injured, Lu Bu can take action and eliminate them in one fell swoop.
Liu Xie didn't know that Lu Bu had seen through his ideas and was still complacent about his strategy. He completely forgot that the strategy he came up with was actually said by Xun Yu and had nothing to do with him.
Since there was no one to object, the decree was quickly sent out, and people were sent to ride on fast horses and rush towards Xuzhou.
…
Xuzhou.
Cao Cao led his troops from Xiaopei and rushed to Xuzhou to join Liu Bei. They arrived ten miles away from Liu Bei's military camp. As soon as they set up camp, spies came to report.
"My lord, the imperial court has issued a decree to appoint Liu Bei as the shepherd of Xuzhou. Official documents and official seals have been issued."
Cao Cao was shocked when he heard the news. He suddenly remembered what the player said, and a thought suddenly arose in his mind.
Two tigers fighting for food!
Thinking of this idea, cold sweat suddenly broke out on Cao Cao's forehead, and he screamed in his heart. He was about to find someone to discuss, but he heard someone reported that Liu Xuande sent someone to deliver a letter, asking Cao Cao to meet.
The meeting place was a temporary pavilion in the middle of the two military camps.
Cao Cao had no choice but to give up the idea of finding someone to discuss with him for the time being and took someone to meet with Liu Xuande.
It was impossible for Liu Bei to go to Cao Cao's military camp, and he also knew very well that similarly, it was impossible for Cao Cao to go to his military camp, so he built a pavilion between the two military camps for the two to meet.
Both of them knew what the other was thinking, so they stopped their soldiers and horses far away and walked to the pavilion with only a few of their subordinates.
Liu Bei saw Cao Cao coming and immediately greeted him, "Mr. Cao, long time no see."
Cao Cao glanced at Guan Yu behind Liu Bei. Although he had heard from players that Guan Yu had passed five levels and killed six generals, he still couldn't help but appreciate it in his heart. At the same time, he knew more clearly that if he wanted to get Guan Yu, there was Xu Shu who escaped. , Liu Bei is the biggest obstacle.
The two came to the pavilion and sat down. After saying a few polite words, they quickly turned to the topic. After all, time was tight and they had to come up with a way to defeat Yuan Shujun as soon as possible.
