Cheng Yu didn't expect Cao Cao to ask this question. He was stunned for a moment and then handed over his hand. "Liu Shou was hit hard. There is at least a 70% certainty that he can be eliminated."
"70% sure!"
Hearing these words, Cao Cao frowned. After thinking for a long time, he shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Zhongde, if you are only 70% sure, why not let this matter go?"
Cheng Yu frowned, "But the opportunity is rare. If you miss it, it may not be easy to have such an opportunity again in the future.
What's more, the three Liu Bei brothers are not ordinary people. If they are not eliminated early, they may be in serious trouble in the future. "
Cao Cao turned to look at Cheng Yu and sighed, "Zhongde, if we take action against Liu Bei, it would be best if we succeed.
But if it fails, what should he do if he goes to seek refuge with Lu Bu? "
This is what Cao Cao is most worried about!
He heard from those players that after Lu Bu captured Xuzhou, he first placed Liu Bei in Xiaopei. However, after a while, the two of them fought. As a result, Liu Bei left Xuzhou and went to seek refuge with him.
When he attacked Xuzhou, Liu Bei had made a lot of achievements. It can be said that without the three Liu Bei brothers, Xuzhou would not have been so easy to conquer.
The problem now is that if Cao Cao takes action against Liu Bei, it is almost certain that after Liu Bei's defeat, he will flee to Yanzhou and seek refuge with Lu Bu. In this way, Lu Bu's strength will be increased invisibly.
The most important thing is that Liu Bei went to seek refuge with Lu Bu and then turned around to deal with himself. Can he really deal with the two of them joining forces?
Cao Cao was not sure, so he did not dare to act rashly.
Of course, Cheng Yu didn't know about these things. All he wanted now was to occupy Xuzhou and eliminate Liu Bei.
Cheng Yu sighed, "My lord can't bear to attack Liu Bei, and I understand this. However, since we have captured Xuzhou, I am afraid that no matter what we do, we will not be able to change Liu Bei's hatred for us. It is better to make a decisive decision and kill him directly." Eradicate it to avoid future troubles.”
Although Cheng Yu's words were very clear, Cao Cao was still hesitant.
The three Liu Bei brothers are indeed not idle people, so if you want to eliminate them, unless you are sure enough to chase them to a dead end, otherwise, with the martial arts of the three of them, they will definitely be able to escape.
…
"Kill!"
"Ahhh!"
The battle between Yuan Shujun and Liu Bei continues and becomes more and more intense.
The three Liu Bei brothers had extraordinary martial arts skills, coupled with Zhang Fei's sneak attack. Although Ji Ling wanted to quickly save the situation, it was not easy.
Although the situation is getting better little by little, the resistance of the three Liu Bei brothers is becoming more and more fierce, and the losses are also increasing.
Ji Ling glanced at the sky and suddenly sneered, "It's almost dawn, Liu Xuande, the battle should be over soon!"
Although the three Liu Bei brothers were powerful in martial arts, Ji Ling was confident of defeating them before dawn as the Chinese were few and far between.
The fact is also true. It was just dawn and Liu Bei saw that he was no match for him. It would be dangerous if he continued to fight. He had no choice but to order the troops to retreat.
"Ha ha!"
Ji Ling looked at the retreating Liu Beijun and couldn't help laughing up to the sky, then roared angrily, "Send the order...!"
Before he finished speaking, there was the sound of rapid hoofbeats behind him, and a war horse galloped from a distance.
"Report!"
"General, something bad has happened. Our army camp was attacked by a sneak attack. General Lei and others have been repulsed and are heading here."
Well!
Hearing the soldier's message, Ji Ling couldn't help but be startled. He looked at the soldier in astonishment, then suddenly reacted and yelled.
"What did you say? The camp was lost, right?"
The soldier trembled at Ji Ling's expression and hurriedly raised his hand, "General, it's true. The camp has been occupied by the enemy. General Lei and his two men have already led their troops to escape."
Ji Ling was trembling all over, and kept roaring like a roar, "How could this happen, you loser, how could you lose the camp!"
Soon, the defeated Lei Book and Chen Lan hurried over. When they saw Ji Ling, they knelt down and said, "General Ji, the last general is incompetent and has lost his camp."
At this moment, Ji Ling had regained his composure. Thinking of what happened just now, he slowly asked, "What's going on? Liu Bei's military and political affairs are fighting with us here, so why did he sneak attack on the camp again?"
Lei Book hurriedly handed over his hand, "General Ji, not Liu Beijun, but Cao Mengde. It was he who led the troops to break through the camp. Now the camp has been occupied by Cao Jun."
"Cao Mengde!"
Hearing this, Ji Ling completely understood that he had been fooled!
I thought there was only Liu Bei's army here, but I never expected that Cao Mengde also came quietly and rushed to help Liu Bei.
According to the plan just now, after defeating Liu Bei, he led his troops to pursue him until he was defeated.
But now, Ji Ling changed his decision, because all the army's baggage was in the camp. It could be said that as long as they didn't take back the camp, they wouldn't even have food for today, so how could they fight?
"Send the order and the army will return. We must recapture the camp today."
Everyone listened to the order and responded hurriedly in unison, leading the army back the same way and heading towards the camp.
…
Cao Cao was thinking about Liu Bei's problem when he heard someone coming to report.
"Lord, Ji Ling has led the army back, and we are only about five miles away from the camp."
After hearing the news, Cao Cao immediately put aside his thoughts and ordered everyone to prepare to meet the enemy.
Although the soldiers and horses led by Ji Ling were severely damaged, the remaining strength should not be underestimated.
Not long after, Ji Ling led his soldiers and horses to the outside of the camp and immediately sent someone to shout.
When Cao Cao heard the news, he came to the camp gate, looked at Ji Ling not far away, laughed and said, "General Ji, you had a good time last night!"
Hearing these words, Killington's face suddenly changed with anger, and his teeth chattered.
"Cao Mengde, you took advantage of the opportunity of my army to leave the camp and came to attack. You are really a villain. You have the ability to send people out of the camp to fight."
How could Cao Cao be fooled? He shook his head and said, "General Ji, after last night's battle, everyone is exhausted. It's better to go back and rest. It won't be too late to fight again tomorrow."
Hearing these words, Ji Ling was even more angry. All the baggage in the camp had been taken away. Cao Jun could lie comfortably in the tent and sleep, but Ji Ling's soldiers and horses needed to be on the plain. Rest, and there is no food to eat.
"Cao Mengde, if you know the truth and return the camp to us immediately, I can just let things go by now. Otherwise, you may not be able to bear the anger of my lord."
Cao Cao shook his head and said, "General Ji, it's better to leave quickly. The soldiers are already tired."
