Cao Yuan actually wanted him to resist Liu Bei?

What's going on?

Liu Xie was confused, and he couldn't understand Cao Yuan's intentions at all.

"Ziyou, didn't you calculate that he secretly colluded with Liu Bei, and wanted to seize power, so why did he let him go to defend against the enemy?"

Xiahou Yuan looked puzzled.

"Uncle Miaocai just does what he is told!"

"Immediately close the four gates, no one is allowed to go out of the city, and Liu Bei is not allowed to know, we have returned to the capital of Xu. "

"Also, please ask Yuan to let my uncle rush to the south gate and lead the defenders of the capital to resist the enemy. "

Cao Yuan gave another series of orders.

Although Xiahou Yuan had doubts, Cao Cao had ordered in advance that Xu Du must obey Cao Yuan's decision in all matters, and Xiahou Yuan and his brothers must be at Cao Yuan's disposal.

He did not dare to ask more questions, and immediately acted as ordered.

"Your Majesty, the situation is urgent, please go to the city quickly. "

Cao Yuan made a gesture of invitation to Liu Xie.

Liu Xie sneered and said: "Cao Junshi is clever, General Xiahou is a good martial artist, there are two of you, it is enough to resist Liu Bei, so I don't have to go, I can't do anything." "

"Liu Bei was summoned by Your Majesty, shouldn't Your Majesty send him away?"

Cao Yuan asked with a sneer.

Liu Xie was stunned and hurriedly defended: "Master Cao misunderstood, all this was done by Dong Cheng, I never knew where Liu Bei had been summoned." "

"Okay, even if Your Majesty doesn't summon Liu Bei to come, Your Majesty will go to the city in person, and you can also deter the big-eared thief!"

Cao Yuan didn't listen to his explanation, so he had to let him go to the city.

Liu Xie squeaked and squeaked, and wanted to dodge.

Cao Yuan was already impatient, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty has repeatedly shirked, but he is unwilling to go to the city to deal with Liu Bei, what is his intention?"

In this voice, anger has been revealed.

Liu Xie's figure was awe-inspiring, so he didn't dare to shirk it anymore, so he had to say: "Since that's the case, then I will go to the city in person to boost the morale of the soldiers." "

Cao Yuan was satisfied, so he personally escorted him to the south gate.

Five miles south of Xudu.

The Jingzhou army of more than 20,000 people was rushing towards Xudu.

Liu Bei rode his horse and whipped up, and he was full of spirit.

At this time, Dong Cheng should have launched a mutiny as promised, killed Xiahoudun, and captured Xudu. "

"As soon as the lord's army arrives, he can easily enter the city and control the situation in Xudu. "

"When the Son of Heaven is in hand, the lord raises his arms and shouts, and the counties south of Xu Capital will spread the word that it can be determined!"

Xu Shu, who was running, sketched a blueprint for Liu Bei.

Liu Bei's eyes swelled with excitement, and he said happily: "Quickly send an order to Kong Ming's military division, just wait for me to enter Xudu, immediately lead the main army to the north, and be sure to arrive at Xudu within seven days!"

"Don't worry, my army is ready to go, just wait for the lord to give an order, Kong Ming will lead the army north to Xudu. "

Xu Shu smiled and said with relief.

According to Zhuge Liang's strategy, Liu Bei led 20,000 light troops from Ru to the north and south, and attacked Xu Du to control the Son of Heaven at the fastest speed.

Subsequently, Zhuge Liang will lead the main army to the north through Wancheng, open up Nanyang Avenue, and join Liu Bei under the city of Xudu.

The Son of Heaven is in his hands, Xu is in his hands, and 80,000 male soldiers are in his hands, even if Cao Cao returns to the south, he has enough confidence to fight with him.

At the end of the field of vision, the majestic silhouette of Xu Capital City was already looming.

Zhuge Liang's clever plan is only one step away from success.

Liu Bei's spirits were greatly lifted, and he raised his whip and shouted: "The whole army is speeding up, and within half an hour, our army will step into Xudu!"

The 20,000-strong army was in high spirits and rushed north.

At dusk.

The army marched under the South Gate.

The situation at the south gate turned the excitement in Liu Bei's heart into uneasiness.

The city gate was not opened, and Dong Cheng did not go out of the city in person to welcome him into the city as agreed.

Opposite.

At the head of the city, the battle flag of the word "Cao" is still flying.

More than 100 Cao troops were ready for battle, as if facing a great enemy.

"Could it be that Dong Cheng's mutiny failed?"

Liu Bei changed color slightly and looked at Xu Shu.

Xu Shu said: "Dong Cheng acted carefully, he shouldn't fail, maybe he just guarded against the nearby Cao army rushing to help, and didn't dare to open the city easily." "

Yuan bluntly said that it was reasonable. "

Liu Bei called the army to line up, and he approached the city under the protection of hundreds of personal guards.

He took a deep breath and said in a loud voice: "Liu Bei has been edicted to come to King Qin, where is Uncle Dong Guo, please let me enter the city quickly." "

Upstairs at the South Gate.

As soon as Xiahoudun looked at him, the soldiers carried a wooden stake to the battlements.

Liu Xie, who was dressed in a dragon robe, was tied to a stake with his hands behind his back and appeared in front of the Jingzhou army.

The Son of Heaven suddenly appeared, and the Jingzhou army immediately burst into discussions.

Liu Bei's face also changed, and he looked at Xu Shu with a surprised gaze.

Xu Shu was also at a loss, unable to guess what was going on.

According to the agreement, the Son of Heaven should be in the palace and wait for him to enter the city to face the saint.

Now the Son of Heaven unexpectedly appeared at the south gate, which overwhelmed Liu Bei for a while.

But when Xiahoudun also appeared beside the Son of Heaven later, Liu Bei's face changed greatly.

Xiahoudun is still alive.

It also appears around the Son of Heaven.

This means that Dong Cheng's defeat will definitely fail!

"Big-eared thief!"

"Dong Cheng's rebel rebellion has been extinguished by the general!"

"Do you think that if you secretly collude with him, you can take advantage of the weakness to attack Xu Du, it is really a pipe dream!"

Xiahoudun was cold and sarcastic, and waved his hand.

More than a dozen heads were immediately thrown from the city tower and hung under the city gate.

The bloody heads are the heads of Han Chen such as Dong Cheng, Chongji, and Wang Zifu.

Liu Bei was shocked.

He never expected that Dong Chengbing's defeat would fail.

It's also completely defeated.

All the ministers who participated in the mutiny were beheaded by Xiahoudun!

"Didn't Dong Cheng act carefully, why did they fail?"

Liu Bei clenched his fists and gritted his teeth secretly.

On the top of the city.

Xiahoudun turned his gaze to Liu Xie, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, it's time for you to speak, Ziyou will explain your words, you know what to say." "

Liu Xie didn't dare to disobey, so he had to take out the majesty of the Son of Heaven and take a deep breath.

"I just pretended to condone Dong Cheng's mutiny, but I ordered Xiahou Yuanrang to lead the army to quell the rebellion, and kill Dong Cheng and other traitors!"

"Liu Bei, I already knew your wolf ambitions, and you colluded with the traitor Dong Cheng, which is nothing more than a vain attempt to hold me hostage and persecute me and pass on the throne of the Han Dynasty to you!"

"I, the Jiangshan Sheji, even if it is passed on to Cao Gong, I will never pass it on to you, the scum of the Liu family!"

Liu Xie's voice was full of emotion, and in front of thousands of soldiers, Liu Bei's ambition was exposed.

Liu Bei's eyes widened, his face was stunned and shocked, and the whole person froze on his horse, thinking that he was hallucinating.
