After Liu Zhang killed Zhang Jiao's three brothers, the Yellow Turban Rebellion was only superficially treated as equals.
The power that was enough to overthrow the Han Dynasty was completely destroyed by Liu Zhang.
However, there are still countless small groups of Yellow Turbans that are extremely rampant in various places.
For example, Heishan Yellow Turban, Qingzhou Yellow Turban, Baibo Yellow Turban, etc.
But at that time, the imperial court was weak and could not make ends meet. There was also Beigong Boyu's rebellion on the border, and it was almost impossible to stop it.
In the court, eunuchs, relatives, and aristocratic families compete for power and profit.
There is also Liu Zhang's subjective factor. If the world is not in chaos, he will create chaos.
As a result, the big man who was riddled with holes became even more dilapidated.
As a result, countless bandits and cholera broke out all over the world, and even more people committed evil under the banner of the Yellow Turban.
Among them, the bandits in Runan County were extremely rampant.
There are countless small groups of thieves and bandits, and large groups of thieves and bandits often number in the tens of thousands!
At this time, Xu Chu's name began to be heard throughout Runan County.
The Xu family is a big family with a very large number of people!
Under Xu Chu's call, thousands of clan members gathered!
Later, they recruited local braves, Ding Zhuang, and more than 10,000 people to build defense facilities to resist the bandits.
The thieves also knew that the Xu family was rich, so they all wanted to attack Xu Chu and rob the Xu family's property.
However, Xu Chu was extremely powerful and brave, and everyone under his command died for him, which made countless thieves hate him at Xu Chu's hands.
But people die for money and birds die for food!
Those who fall off the grass are bandits, and those who go up the mountain to become thieves are just for money and food.
Xu Chu's bravery not only failed to scare the thieves, but instead constantly provoked new thieves.
There are too many thieves, killing batch after batch without end!
As the battle continued, the Xu family and the warriors recruited by Xu Chu continued to die in battle.
In the end, Xu Chu was defeated by the fierce attack of the Gebei bandits in Runan.
The long battle made everyone extremely tired. The thieves were so powerful that they were ultimately outnumbered.
In addition, the defensive baggage was exhausted, and even the arrows were consumed.
Seeing that he was about to be defeated and killed, Xu Chu thought of a plan.
Thanks to Xu Chu's ingenious plan, the bandit army was able to be repelled.
It was also from that moment that Xu Chu truly became famous.
Later, Cao Cao occupied Yuzhou and Runan County came under his control. Xu Chu took advantage of the situation and defected to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao liked Xu Chu's bravery and relied heavily on him.
until today.
Therefore, there is no special acquaintance or special emotion between Cao Cao and Xu Chu.
It was simply that Xu Chu took refuge with Cao Cao, and Cao Cao treated Xu Chu and the Xu family well.
What will happen when someone treats Xu Chu more kindly than Cao Cao and treats the Xu family more favorably?
Is it possible that Cao Cao's expectation of various preferential treatment and more than ten years of relationship between master and ministers is comparable to his personal future and the fate of his family?
Even if Xu Chu was loyal, Cao Cao would not dare to gamble!
Xu Chu came from a noble family, and the concept that family is the first priority for children of noble families will never change.
If you want Xu Chu to be loyal until his death, you must ensure that the Xu family is under Cao Cao's rule.
But can it be guaranteed now?
Today's battle situation is almost to the point of death.
The Huainan army has been defeated. If the Wei army is defeated again, Huainan will change hands in an instant.
After Huainan was defeated, Runan County in Yuzhang was the first target of the Qin army's attack.
Even Cao Cao himself was defeated. Do you ask Xu Chu to put his confidence in the soldiers of Runan County?
Do you expect the county soldiers to repel the Qin army?
Not to mention Xu Chu, Cao Cao himself didn't believe it.
Once the pros and cons are weighed, Xu Chu has a high probability of being unfaithful!
There is really no shame in rebelling against the family in this day and age.
Thinking of this, Cao Cao's heart suddenly rose to his throat.
He really hated why he was so careless and brought Xu Chu here.
Cao Cao hated Dian Wei even more. He was a reckless man. Who taught him this?
"Zhongkang, don't get me wrong, Gu has never doubted you!"
Cao Cao's assurance already contained a hint of prayer.
Pray that Xu Chu believes in himself.
But at this moment, Xu Chu sneered.
"hehe..."
"King Wei, how can the general believe your words?"
Ding!
Cao Cao felt his heart stop beating.
The smell of this sentence is so wrong!
"Zhongkang, you...don't be impulsive!"
"Gu Yiyi has an army of hundreds of thousands and can definitely destroy Liu Zhang!"
"In the future, this Han Dynasty will definitely be the only one in the world! You are the only general Yuancong and the only minister with the most humility!"
Xu Chu retracted his smile and became expressionless again.
"King Wei, do you believe this?"
After saying this, Xu Chu's right hand holding the sword seemed to tighten.
Cao Cao's eyes widened.
Even Liu Zhang was a little at a loss.
Everything happened so suddenly and so strangely!
Xu Chu actually has a rebellious heart?
Even if he saw it with his own eyes, Liu Zhang couldn't believe it!
He knows the direction of history very well!
He is extremely familiar with important figures such as Xu Chu.
In Liu Zhang's impression, shouldn't Xu Chu die for Cao Cao with his body?
How could Dian Wei's few words make him turn against him?
Is it possible that just one family connection is enough to change everyone?
If this is the case, Liu Zhang will have to consider the people under his command.
Even Xu Chu can rebel, what else is impossible?
However, Cao Cao was frightened, Liu Zhang was surprised, but Dian Wei was not surprised at all.
Still laughing and encouraging Xu Chu.
"General Xu, this is right!"
"A hero like you shouldn't stoop to become a thief!"
"The King of Qin is here today. If you perform meritorious deeds in person, the King of Qin will definitely use you more!"
Xu Chu thought for a moment and nodded slowly.
And took the initiative to ask Liu Zhang.
"King Qin, can what General Dian say represent you?"
"Forehead..."
Liu Zhang was actually still surprised. After a while, he nodded.
"I can agree to what Dian Wei said."
"If you can really capture and kill Cao Cao, you will be greatly rewarded!"
Xu Chu smiled, a little complicated.
"King Qin, is Xu Chu a person who is greedy for fame and pleasure? Everything is for the Xu family!"
"If King Qin can promise to support the Xu family..."
Liu Zhang nodded repeatedly.
"No problem, Gu agreed!"
What a joke, let alone support, Liu Zhang can agree to any conditions now!
"Okay! That's it..."
Xu Chu agreed immediately, then turned to look at Cao Cao.
His eyes began to turn cold.
"King Wei..."
Cao Cao's hands had begun to shake, and he had already felt the breath of death.
Xu Chu took action, and he didn't even have a chance to resist or escape!
"Zhongkang, you..."
"King Wei, the general has offended me!"
