Three Kingdoms: The identity of the financial master behind the scenes was exposed by Cao Cao

The smile on Liu Bei's face disappeared and was replaced by horror.

Yuan Shao died like this?

An army of 200,000 people was wiped out in one day?

This incredible news was beyond his comprehension, and he thought he had heard it wrong.

"How is this possible? Yuan Shao was really defeated, his body and reputation were destroyed?"

Liu Bei's voice trembled, and he jumped up excitedly and asked.

Chen Dao sighed:"It's absolutely true. At this time, Cao Cao has led his army north to Baima, preparing to cross the river and take advantage of the situation to attack the four states of Hebei."

Liu Bei sat down, his face frozen in confusion and shock for a moment.

After Zhuge Liang was startled, he immediately returned to calmness and drank the wine in the glass slowly. He put the glass down.

Zhuge Liang then shook his feather fan lightly and asked lightly:"Cao Cao If the thief wants to defeat Yuan Shao, he can only use surprise soldiers. Uncle Zhi, tell me, what clever trick did Cao thief use?"

Chen Dao then launched a battle report and calculated that Cao Yuan had found out where Yuan Shao was garrisoning grain. Cao Cao secretly attacked Wuchao and burned millions of Yuan Shao's grain and grass, causing the morale of Yuan's army to collapse. Cao Cao's army took advantage of the situation to attack in five directions and defeated Yuan's army. All details were recorded. Come.

The truth is revealed.

Liu Bei punched the case and said bitterly:"It's this Cao Yuan again. Yuan Shao's 200,000 army was destroyed in his hands like this. It's hateful!"

"The place where grain is stored must be a secret. Cao Yuan can actually figure it out. This man's intelligence is really incredible."

Xu Shu murmured in amazement, and could not hide the fear between his brows.

Zhuge Liang said nothing, still shaking his feather fan, but his sword eyebrows had quietly furrowed.

"Military Advisor Kong Ming, now that the Cao thieves have destroyed Yuan Shao, our plan to harvest the power of the fishermen has been shattered."

"The entire north will soon fall into the hands of the Cao thieves. What should we do?"

Liu Bei came back from the surprise, suddenly panicked, and asked Zhuge Liang for advice.

Zhuge Liang stood up and walked around, shaking his feather fan, and said nothing.

After a long time, a confident sneer flashed across his face.

"Don't worry, my lord, Cao Cao will definitely take advantage of the opportunity to cross the Yellow River north and capture the four states of Hebei after destroying Yuan Shao's main force."

"Since he is in Hebei, Xudu must be empty of troops. This is our opportunity."

"The lord can send an elite army to the direction of Runan instead of passing through Wancheng, and take Xudu directly by surprise."

"As long as Xudu can be captured and the emperor is welcomed, invitations from all the states in the Central Plains can be decided! Zhuge

Liang spoke eloquently and offered a plan to Liu Bei.

The more Liu Bei listened, the more excited he became, and the panic and uneasiness on his face disappeared in an instant.

"Even if Cao Cao goes on an expedition to Hebei, no matter how depleted Xu Du's troops are, he still can't go without precautions."

"Our army is rushing to attack Xudu. If it cannot be defeated quickly, Cao Cao's thieves will definitely send their cavalry to travel south at night to rescue them."

"If so, what should be done?"

Xu Shu said worriedly.

Liu Bei nodded slightly and looked at Zhuge Liang:"Yes, military advisor, it is not easy to defeat Xudu quickly."

"It is naturally not easy to defeat Xudu quickly. Zhuge

Liang changed the topic and said with a sly smile:"But if someone can be an internal response, then it will be easy for us to capture Xudu.""

Internal response?

Liu Bei and Xu Shu were startled and looked at each other, unable to understand the mystery behind Zhuge Liang's words.

"Military advisor, who can be our internal response?"

Liu Bei's eyes widened and he asked impatiently.

Zhuge Liang took a sip of wine, shook his feather fan lightly, and said two words unhurriedly:

"Emperor!"

…

Xudu, Miyagi.

On Yuhu Lake, a dragon boat is moored on the lake.

Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty summoned his father Fu Wan and his uncle Dong Cheng in the name of visiting the lake.

"Your Majesty, I have joined forces with more than ten brave and loyal ministers including Zhong Ji, and gathered more than 3,000 dead soldiers. As long as your Majesty gives an order, I can immediately launch a mutiny and seize control of Xudu! Dong

Cheng lowered his voice and his eyes were filled with excitement.

Liu Xie's eyes flashed and he asked:"Uncle Guo, how sure are you?""

"Taking advantage of the great victory at Guandu, Cao Cao has now sent his troops northward to Liyang, intending to take advantage of the situation to regain Hebei."

"The current strength of Xudu city is only over 3,000. As long as we act carefully and catch the defenders off guard, I am 70% sure of capturing Xudu!"

Dong Cheng said with confidence.

Liu Xie clenched his fists, and there was excitement in his eyes.

"Even if Dong Guojiu succeeds in his rebellion, he will only be able to control Xudu temporarily."

"After Cao Cao hears the news, his army will quickly retake it. Can the uncle of the state defend Xudu with only three thousand dead soldiers?"

Beside Liu Xie's dragon seat, the dignified and beautiful woman in phoenix clothes had doubts about the mutiny.

The woman was none other than Queen Fu Shou.

"Yes, the counties around Xudu are all officials loyal to Cao Cao. Even if we can capture Xudu, it will only be an isolated city."

The abbot also expressed concern after Fu.

Liu Xie's face turned gloomy again and he looked at Dong Cheng.

Dong Cheng sneered and said,"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Liu Xuande of Jingzhou has sent someone to contact the ministers, and will lead his army from Runan to the north and attack Xu. Dudu, with this army of King Qin all the way, an invitation will be sent to the south of Xudu, and Cao Cao's thieves will be afraid even if they return to the army!"

As soon as this was said,

Liu Xie was overjoyed and asked anxiously:"Uncle, is Liu Xuande really willing to send troops to serve the king?"

"Here is the secret letter from Duke Xuande, please read it!"

Dong Cheng smiled and took out a secret message from his sleeve and presented it with both hands.

Liu Xie snatched it away anxiously and looked at it carefully. The clouds on his face gradually disappeared and ecstasy filled his eyes.

Dong Cheng took advantage of the situation and persuaded:"This is Your Majesty's only chance to regain your imperial authority and regain your power is if you let Cao's thieves capture the four states of Hebei and return the troops to the court, your Majesty will have no chance to regain your power!"

Liu Xie jumped up, the worry and hesitation on his face disappeared.

"My uncle's words are right. The traitor Cao wants to usurp the Han Dynasty. How can I just sit back and wait for death?"

Liu Xie's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he waved his hands and shouted:"I have agreed to your uncle's request. You must quickly make an agreement with Liu Bei to launch a mutiny in the near future and seize Xudu!"

"I accept the decree! Dong

Cheng accepted the order with great enthusiasm, cupped his hands and said,"Your Majesty's majestic and mighty strategy has the style of the great ancestor. I believe that your Majesty will be able to revive the Han Dynasty and become the emperor through the ages!""

Liu Xie was so excited that he could not sit still. He vaguely saw the moment when the mutiny was successful and he regained power and ruled the world.

"Your Majesty, Cao Cao has Cao Yuan beside him. This man is extremely resourceful and has become a saint. I am afraid that this man will see through Dong Guojiu's plan. I ask your majesty to think twice before doing this."

Fu Shou poured a ladle of cold water on him.

Liu Xie's face suddenly became a little fearful.

Dong Cheng sneered and said:"Then Cao Yuan is indeed extraordinary in intelligence, but my plot is flawless and has no flaws. I don't believe that he can pull it off. With his eyesight, he calculated that the minister was going to launch a mutiny! Liu

Xie's worries disappeared and he said:"My uncle is right. Cao Cao is far away from Xudu, so there is nothing to worry about. Just act according to your plan.""

Seeing that Liu Xie had made up his mind, Fu Shou did not dare to persuade him any more, so he could only sigh softly.

The plot was decided, the dragon boat docked, and Dong Cheng retired after Fu Shou.

The emperor and empress pretended to have finished their tour of the lake, and their interest waned. He returned to the inner palace.

All the way to the front of the dormitory, Fu Shoufu saluted, then walked to the side hall.

Liu Xie looked at Fu Shou's figure, but he sighed bitterly.

When Dong Zhuo brought trouble to Chao Gang, he was still young and saw it with his own eyes. Dong Zhuo killed a minister with a stick in the main hall, and the bloody scene frightened him psychologically. From then on, he became ill and unable to do what he wanted. Therefore, although he married Fu Shou, they slept on separate beds, which is still in name only.

This is an unknown secret. , which made him feel unable to lift his head every time he faced Fu Shou alone.

"I am the emperor of the Han Dynasty and a descendant of the Liu family. I am not a useless person!"

"I want to take back the power that belongs to me, I want to be a real emperor, and I will definitely be a real man!"

Liu Xie clenched his fists and secretly swore a strong oath.
