The letter from Juancheng came at the right time.

When Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan breathed a sigh of relief and thought they were finally about to retreat, Cao Cao stood up and already had the letter in his hand.

The two of them stared at Cao Cao.

At this time, Cao Cao frowned slightly at first, and then relaxed in an instant.

The melancholy that originally hung on my face instantly dissipated.

"Okay, what a great Fengyi, you are really my Xiao He!"

As Cao Cao laughed, Xia Houyuan and Cao Ren couldn't help but be stunned.

Why did the eldest brother praise Xi Yu so well?

Could it be said that Xiyu can solve the problem of food and grass?

While the two were confused, Xi Zhicai couldn't help but chuckle.

When he saw Cao Cao full of joy and opening his mouth to praise his younger brother, Xi Zhicai reacted.

Come to think of it, his brother must have a way to transport grain and grass here!

However, now that the grain road is cut off, how Xi Yu will transport grain and grass is something Xi Zhicai can't figure out.

He turned his attention to Cao Cao, who only looked over when he saw Xi Zhi, and casually handed over the letter in his hand.

As a result, Xi Zhicai soon saw the question written by Xun Yu on the letter.

Sure enough, Xun Yu said in the letter that Xi Yu was planning to personally escort the grain and grass there. As long as Cao Cao's army persisted for a few days, the grain and grass would surely arrive.

"Congratulations, lord!"

After reading the letter, Xi Zhicai congratulated Cao Cao with a smile on his face.

At this time, Cao Ren also came over to look at the letter.

After learning that Xi Yu personally delivered the food and grass and promised to arrive in a short time, although the two of them were a little surprised, they couldn't help but feel a little happy.

I thought that I had no choice but to retreat, but I didn't expect that there would be a brighter future.

What an unexpected surprise.

"Brother, I will go back to supervise the army right away. I won't be able to suppress those arrogant and powerful generals without me!"

With Xi Yu's assurance, Xia Houyuan was determined and said something to Cao Cao, and quickly planned to return.

Cao Ren on the side also bowed his hand: "Brother, I'm going back too!"

Cao Cao looked at the two people who had stabilized their minds and couldn't help but sigh, this letter really came in time.

What's more important is that Xi Yu has already guaranteed the transportation of grain and grass.

"You two go away. If anyone doesn't follow the military rules, you can be killed!"

Reaching out and patting the two of them, Cao Cao gave a casual instruction and then watched the two of them leave the camp in a hurry.

"Su Wei, summon General Yu to come!"

After receiving the letter from Juancheng and learning that the military rations would be delivered soon, Cao Cao summoned Yu Jin to come.

Not long after, Yu Jin entered the camp.

He had just seen Xia Houyuan and Cao Ren leave Cao Jun's camp with happy faces, and he had already thought that the food and fodder matter might have been solved.

Sure enough, Cao Cao saw him coming and waved to him happily.

"Wen Ze is here!"

"In a few days, our army's food and grass will arrive. Please inform your generals to appease the morale of the army, and wait until the next day to start a war with Xuzhou!"

……

When Cao Cao received the news from Juancheng, Liu Bei, who was in Tancheng at the moment, felt a little complicated.

Chen Deng came to visit, which made Liu Bei very happy.

The incident in Xuzhou that was mentioned immediately made Liu Bei's heart skip a beat.

Xuzhou is located in the Central Plains and is a battleground for military strategists. To occupy Xuzhou and become a state pastor is what many people long for.

Liu Bei naturally also imagined in his mind that he had a city under his command.

Chen Deng's proposal lingered in Liu Bei's heart for a long time.

Over the years, apart from serving as a small captain of Anxi County, he was no more than a plain minister at the most.

Compared to the state herdsman in a state, it is simply incomparable.

If there is a continent, it will be regarded as a glorious ancestor.

However, capturing Xuzhou in this way was not what he wanted.

Liu Bei had something on his mind, and as sworn brothers, Guan and Zhang could naturally tell it.

Zhang Fei looks carefree on the surface, but his thoughts are somewhat delicate.

The three brothers gathered in the house. When Guan Yu frowned and didn't know how to ask a question, Zhang Fei spoke first.

"Brother, what are you thinking about?"

Zhang Fei was straightforward and asked directly.

Hearing his third brother's question, Liu Bei glanced at the two brothers.

"Chen Yuanlong came to visit me some time ago and asked me about my aspirations!"

Liu Bei did not hide his brother at all, and directly repeated what Chen Deng said at that time.

Hearing this, Guan Yu stroked the long beard under his chin and did not speak.

Zhang Fei beside him couldn't help but stare.

"That kid wants to welcome his eldest brother to take over Xuzhou?"

The three brothers knew that Cao Cao was able to take control of Yanzhou because Chen Gong, Bao Xin and others united with the people of Yanzhou to welcome Cao Cao.

Now, Chen Deng intends to welcome Liu Bei to Xuzhou.

This thing sounds almost the same.

As soon as Zhang Fei's mind turned around, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but crack.

"Brother, I didn't expect that Chen Yuanlong is a good person!"

"Brother, there is no problem at all in being a Xuzhou animal husbandry!"

Zhang Fei nodded repeatedly. He always felt that with Liu Bei's ability, there would be no problem at all in becoming a state pastor.

Perhaps, in his opinion, even if his eldest brother becomes the emperor, he will applaud him.

At this time, Zhang Fei was naturally filled with joy when he heard that someone wanted to flatter his eldest brother and become the shepherd of Xuzhou.

Although Guan Yu didn't speak, he felt good in his heart.

If Liu Bei could be the pastor of Xuzhou, he would naturally have no objection.

"Eldest brother refused?"

Guan Yu asked, and just by looking at the expression on Liu Bei's face at this moment, he guessed Liu Bei's response.

Sure enough, after the words fell, Liu Bei nodded.

Before Liu Bei could speak, Zhang Fei stared at him.

"Ah, why did brother refuse!"

"Isn't that how Cao Cao became the Yanzhou Shepherd? If Cao Cao can become the Yanzhou Shepherd, my eldest brother will naturally have no problem."

"I think it's pretty good for my eldest brother to do this Xuzhou animal husbandry!"

Zhang Fei was a little confused. He felt that Cao Cao could be the shepherd of Yanzhou, but now Liu Bei can be the shepherd of Xuzhou.

There is no difference between the two.

He doesn't think Cao Cao is much better than his elder brother Liu Bei.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Liu Bei smiled and looked at Zhang Fei helplessly.

There seems to be no essential difference between these two things, but the difference between them is huge.

Cao Cao was able to take control of Yanzhou because Liu Dai, the original governor of Yanzhou, was killed by the Yellow Turbans. At that time, Yanzhou became an unclaimed land.

The relationship between Cao Cao and Cao Cao is not bad. It is normal for someone to work for Cao Cao.

But now, Xuzhou is no longer a deserted land.

At the moment, Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian is not dead, and Chen Deng is just making a suggestion. If he agrees, wouldn't he become a villain who steals people's inheritance?

Furthermore, at that time, the Yellow Turbans in Yanzhou were in rebellion, and Yanzhou had no owner. Cao Cao was mainly favored by everyone in Yanzhou.

Now, although Xuzhou has foreign enemies, it is not ownerless. He was only nominally invited to help.
