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

Liu Bei thought he heard wrongly.

Liu Xie, the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

He actually openly declared that he would rather pass the throne of the Han Dynasty to Cao Cao, a traitor with a foreign surname, than to him, a relative of the Liu family!

Moreover, he openly exposed his ambition to covet the throne in front of everyone in the world!

Liu Xie, is he crazy?

Liu Bei's face turned red, his fists clenched until they crackled, and his eyes burned with embarrassment and anger.

"Lord, please calm down. The emperor must have been coerced by Xiahou Dun to say such insincere words to slander the Lord!"

Xu Shu lowered his voice and reminded.

Liu Bei was shocked and suddenly realized.

He frowned and said sternly:"Xiahou Dun, how dare you force the emperor to slander me!"

On the top of the city.

Xiahou Dun glanced at Liu Xie with disdain.

Liu Xie did not dare to disobey.

"The officers and men of Jingzhou listened and quickly put down their weapons and surrendered to me. Surrendered to Duke Cao. I forgive your sins."

"If not, once Duke Cao's army arrives, they will be killed together with Duke Cao!"

First, he exposed Liu Bei's ambitions, and then, he recruited surrender in the name of the emperor to shake the morale of the Jingzhou army.

This was the script written by Cao Yuan for Liu Xie.

As soon as these words came out, the Jingzhou troops under the city immediately whispered to each other that the morale of the Jingzhou army was high. Shaken.

Liu Bei's brows deepened and his eyes burned with rage.

But Xu Shu beside him sighed:"Dong Cheng's rebellion failed. Xiahou Dun has been prepared. It seems that Kong Ming's plan to raid Xudu has failed. Lord, withdraw quickly." Let’s go to Jingzhou. Liu

Bei said nothing, and pressed the hilt of the sword on his waist tighter and tighter.

Suddenly, the sword was unsheathed, Liu Bei pointed at Xu Du, and shouted:"Send the order, the whole army will attack the city immediately, King Qin will kill the thieves, and rescue the emperor!" Xu

Shu's expression changed and he said anxiously:"My lord, Dong Cheng's army was defeated and Xiahou Dun was already on guard. Why did my lord still attack the city?""

"Even though Xiahou Dun was on guard, he only had 3,000 troops in his hands. To put down the rebellion, there would definitely be more casualties."

"Our army is 20,000, which is ten times larger than Cao’s army. Even without internal support, we will definitely be able to defeat Xudu!"

"If we miss this God-given opportunity, and wait until Cao Cao's thieves return to help and put heavy troops on guard, when will we have such a good opportunity again!"

Liu Bei's tone was resolute and solemn, revealing the reason.

Xu Shu's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but get excited. He nodded and said:"My lord, what you said makes sense. If we attack the city by force, we may not be able to defeat Xudu."

The topic changed.

Xu Shu said worriedly:"But the emperor is still at the top of the city. If we attack the city now, wouldn't it be a trap? What if we accidentally hurt the emperor?"

Liu Bei's heart was shocked, and a hint of hesitation flashed across his resolute expression.

He is different from the princes like Yuan Shu.

He claims to be a member of the Han Dynasty. From the time he raised his army, he has been supporting the country and respecting the emperor. The banner of righteousness.

Today, if Liu Xie is attacked by force regardless of Liu Xie's safety, he will be doubly criticized.

If Liu Xie is unfortunately injured, wouldn't it be confirmed that he is plotting for the throne and not willing to commit regicide? Even if Xu Xie is captured Du, his reputation as a loyal minister and benevolent will also be in vain.

"Loyalty, benevolence and righteousness are all just names."

"As long as we can capture Xudu and hold the emperor in our hands, it will be worth paying any price!"

Liu Bei weighed in his mind, and the remaining worries in his eyes were swept away.

He pointed his sword and said sternly:"Listen, son of Jingzhou, for the sake of the Han Dynasty, I will crush Xudu for me at all costs!"

Xu Shu's body trembled, and he suddenly understood what Liu Bei meant.

As long as Xudu can be captured, as long as the Han Dynasty can be restored, everything can be sacrificed.

Even the emperor Liu Xie is no exception.

Xu Shu understood Liu Bei's motives and couldn't help but whisper. Sigh, no more dissuasion

"Boom boom!"

The war drums were beating.

Li Yan, Huang Zhong and other Jingzhou generals had no choice but to mobilize their soldiers and return to the south gate of Xudu.

On top of the city. Dare to attack Xudu?"

Liu Xie also looked shocked. He obviously didn't expect that his imperial uncle would dare to attack the city regardless of his life.

"The big-eared thief thinks that his troops are ten times more powerful than ours. Attacking the city at this time is his only chance to capture Xudu."

"With this God-given opportunity in front of us, the life and death of a useless emperor didn't matter."

A sarcastic sneer sounded from behind.

Cao Yuan had already walked out of the tower, exposing Liu Bei's thoughts.

Xiahou Dun suddenly realized it and cursed:"This big-eared thief always slanders Mengde as a rebellious minister and traitor, and wants to plot to usurp the throne. Unexpectedly, , he, the great uncle of the Han Dynasty, was more anxious than anyone else to seek to usurp the throne.

Xia Houyuan sneered and said:"What a pity. He never wants to think that Ziyou has returned and every move he makes is in your calculations.""

"Send the order to Zilong. Cao

Yuan waved his hand:"Let his red horse righteous go around from the east gate and give Liu Bei a surprise.""

"promise! Xiahou

Yuan accepted the order and erected a black signal flag on the top of the city.

Xiahou Dun said:"Ziyou, your plan has been successful. It's time to remove the emperor from the city to avoid being accidentally injured by the Jingzhou army.""

"No, just leave him on the tower."

Cao Yuan denied Xiahou Dun's request, and a cold murderous intent ignited in his eyebrows.

Xiahou Dun was taken aback and said hurriedly:"If the emperor is left here, what should he do if he is shot and killed by Jingzhou army's arrows?"

"I just want to use Liu Bei's hand to kill this dog emperor!"

A mysterious sneer flashed across Cao Yuan's face.

Xiahou Dun was stunned.

Liu Xie was shocked, and his face turned pale for a moment.

He finally understood.

Cao Yuan asked him to come to the city in person and forced him to say those words. It was not only to attack Jingzhou The morale of the army tempted Liu Bei to attack the city.

Cao Yuan's real purpose was to borrow a sword to kill someone!

Borrow the sword of Liu Bei, the uncle of the Han Dynasty, to kill him, the emperor of Han Dynasty!

From the Golden Palace, Cao Yuan learned that Liu Bei was attacking. , already determined to kill him

"Cao Yuan, I am the emperor, how dare you harm me! Liu

Xie, who woke up with a start, screamed in panic.
