Another young handsome man came to Bai Rao and spoke to him flatteringly.
"Zhou Fox, you are the only one who can speak."
Sun Dali looked at the flattering person with a hint of disdain in his eyes.
"You idiot, I'm too lazy to care about you."
"Okay, you two, stop arguing. We will be arriving in Puyang in a few days. Whoever can capture Puyang first then, I will give him half of the city."
Looking at the two men fighting like cockfighters, Bai Rao smiled softly. The basic strategy of his subordinates was to make the two of them fight and not get along, otherwise his position as commander-in-chief would not last long.
"Does the commander-in-chief really mean what he said?"
"Zhou Fox, when did the commander-in-chief make a joke? In this case, I will take this half of Puyang."
Unlike Zhou Hu, Sun Dali shook his hands and said thank you.
"Commander, I don't mean that. This Puyang must belong to me, Zhou Hu."
Zhou Fox also thanked Bai Rao.
"Hahahaha, just talk and don't practice the fake moves. When the time comes, you will have to see the real thing. Let's get ready to go."
"promise."
"promise."
After the two of them finished speaking, they left and walked towards their own tribe.
"Commander, do you really want to give them half of Puyang?"
As soon as the two left, a big man appeared behind Bai Luo, frowning slightly and asking him questions.
"Tieniu, this Puyang City is the administrative seat of Dongjun. It is run like an iron barrel by Wang Gong. If you want to break it, you will definitely suffer heavy casualties.
If I don't give these two idiots some heavy medicine, how can they attack the city with all their might? As for what will happen after the city is defeated, we will talk about it at that time."
Bai Rao had long thought that it would be difficult to attack Puyang, so now he promised to make the two commanders try their best with heavy profits, so that his troops could suffer less losses.
"The handsome man is wise and wise, but he is not as good as an iron ox."
In Tie Niu's eyes, Bai Rao is a god, an omnipotent man.
"Okay, stop complimenting me. Prepare your troops and horses. If you don't count on those two idiots, we will have to look at your death squad."
"Don't worry, Commander."
Tieniu smiled naively and disappeared behind Bai Yao again.
The Yellow Turban Army marched very fast, but Liu Bei and Cao Cao were faster. In a few days, Cao Cao had arrived thirty miles away from Puyang.
Cao Cao smiled slightly after looking at the topography. Except for a few scouts scattered outside, the remaining elite soldiers were all hidden in a mountain col.
Cao Hong, Cao Ren and other generals sat around Cao Cao, waiting to eat a roasted sheep.
"Lord, why are the troops and horses hidden here? Isn't it too far from Puyang?"
Cao Hong asked Cao Cao questions while holding the roasted sheep.
"Zilian, don't you know? Do you know anything about it?"
Looking at his subordinates, Cao Cao frowned.
"My lord, I see that you have repeatedly inspected Yanhua Slope ten miles away. Do you think Liu Bei will ambush the Yellow Turban Army again?"
Seeing Cao Cao frowning, Cao Ren couldn't help but stand up.
"Zi Lian, if you just fight hard, you can only become a general. If you want to be the commander of an army, you should be able to understand the overall situation, so you should learn more from Zi Xiao."
Cao Cao nodded from Cao Ren, and then looked at Cao Hong with a look of incompetence.
"Brother, it's enough for you to be the leader of an army. I just need to be your vanguard."
After hearing what Cao Cao said, Cao Hong smiled naively at Cao Cao.
"No, we will have more and more places in the future. If you want to help me, you have to grow up, understand."
After hearing what Cao Hong said, Cao Cao frowned.
In troubled times, everything is for profit. The only people Cao Cao can trust are his own clan brothers. In his heart, Cao Hong, including the Xiahou brothers, must be of great use, so how can he only serve as a general?
"Zi Lian knows."
Seeing that Cao Cao was angry, Cao Hong didn't hesitate and quickly admitted his mistake like a child.
"Okay, there is no need to rush this matter. Yanhuapo is indeed a good place. If Liu Bei were not a fool, he would never let this place go."
Cao Cao once again affirmed Cao Ren's insight. He set the battlefield at Yanhua Slope. Now it was up to him whether Liu Bei was a tiger or a dog.
Cao Cao hid his figure, but Liu Bei arrived outside Puyang with great fanfare.
"Brother, Puyang City is ahead."
Although Guan Yu was the vanguard, he joined Liu Bei's troops as soon as he entered Dongjun. He looked at Puyang City not far away with some expectation in his eyebrows.
"Yes, I know. The army will stop for now. My second brother and third brother will follow me to Puyang City to meet Wang Hu."
"promise."
"promise."
After setting up camp for the army, the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang rode their horses to the foot of Puyang City.
"Stop, who is under the city?"
Seeing the three brothers coming, the defenders at the top of the city shouted loudly.
"My eldest brother, Liu Bei and Liu Xuande, the governor of Yangping, haven't asked Wang Gong to open the city to welcome you."
Before Liu Bei could say anything, Zhang Fei rode out on horseback and shouted towards the city with a snake spear.
"Third brother, don't be rude."
After listening to Zhang Fei's words, Liu Bei also rode out and gave him a look to signal him to stop talking.
"Liu Bei, the governor of Yangping? Wait a moment, I will go and invite the governor right away."
I have to say that Zhang Fei's questioning was very effective. When the city guard heard that Liu Bei was coming, he didn't dare to apologize and went down to the city to report the situation.
After a while, several people dressed in fine clothes came to the city wall surrounded by a middle-aged man with a long beard.
"Is it really the prefect Liu who is under the city?"
The middle-aged man with a long beard looked at the three Liu Bei brothers with a trace of doubt in his eyes.
"Why is this person so rude? When asking others, shouldn't you tell yourself your family name first? Besides, what we are looking for is Wang Gong, the prefect of Dongjun. Don't cause trouble for little fish and shrimp."
Guan Yu also rode forward and looked at the people on the top of the city with displeasure.
"Oh oh oh, I am Wang Hu, the governor of Dongjun. Is this the governor of Liu Bei?"
Guan Yu asked, and Wang Gong at the top of the city quickly adjusted his clothes and asked Liu Bei at the bottom of the city.
"I am Liu Bei and Liu Xuande, the governor of Pingyang."
Liu Bei clenched his fist at Wang Hu on his horse in greeting.
"It's really Grandmaster Liu. I'm disrespectful. May I ask how many troops you brought this time? Why are there only three of you?"
Wang Gong also cupped his fists in greeting.
"Hey, so you are the governor of Dongjun, are you talking to my eldest brother on the top of the city? Is this how you treat guests?"
Looking at Wang Hu, Zhang Fei was really angry for no reason, waved his snake spear and shouted at Puyang City,
"Oh oh oh, I was negligent. Open the city gate quickly and come with me to greet Prefect Liu."
Looking at Zhang Fei with a leopard head and ringed eyes, Wang Gong couldn't help but lose his momentum. He was stunned for a moment and then quickly got off the city wall.
"Crunch."
The gate of Puyang City opened instantly, and Wang Gong led Dongjun Wenwu and hundreds of soldiers on foot to stand in front of Liu, Guan, and Zhang.
"Wang Hu respectfully invites Governor Liu."
Wang Gong bowed politely. There was no news from Cao Cao. Now Liu Bei was the life-saving straw of the entire Dongjun, so he had to be respectful.
