Liu Bei smiled and ordered:

"Come here, escort Xu Gai and Zhu Ze here."

Xu Gai, as Xu Huang's eldest son, was unfortunately captured in the battle of Hedong.

Liu Bei thought that his special status might be useful to him, so he kept him alive until now.

Xu Gai also followed the army in this western expedition.

Now, it is finally time to show his value.

As for Zhu Ze, he was originally a general in Longxi, but later surrendered to Cao Cao and became a "630" prisoner of the Han army in the battle of Yucheng.

Liu Bei originally wanted to kill both of them, but he spared their lives under the persuasion of Deng Mu.

After a while.

Xu Gai and Zhu Ze were escorted to the imperial tent.

Although Xu Gai suffered from the pain of prison and was thin, his pride remained unchanged.

Facing Liu Bei, he still held his head high and his eyes were firm.

Zhu Ze was the opposite. He was terrified and lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Liu Bei.

Liu Bei sneered and said teasingly:

"Xu Gai, how are you? I haven't seen you for a few years. Why do you look so haggard?"

"Why? Did my guard neglect you?"

Xu Gai snorted coldly and said righteously:

"Liu Bei, no matter how you torture me, I, Xu Gai, will not succumb to you, let alone betray Wei and my father!"

"Kill me if you want, don't ridicule me!"

Liu Bei sneered:

"Xu Gai, you are so self-righteous."

"I may have intended to surrender to you back then, but now you have missed the opportunity."

"I have many brave generals under my command, and I don't need a stubborn person like you!"

After that.

Liu Bei's face darkened, and he suddenly ordered: "Shuzhi, do it!"

Chen Dao moved upon hearing the sound, and with a flash of the long knife in his hand, Xu Gai's head had already fallen to the ground.

The whole process was as fast as lightning, and Xu Gai didn't even have time to make a sound.

The blood dyed the ground red, and Xu Gai's terrified face was facing Zhu Ze.

The latter was terrified and trembling all over.

Liu Bei said to Zhu Ze coldly:

"Remember, I won't kill you today, but I want you to take Xu Gai's head to see Xu Huang." (To read the violent novel, go to Fulu Novel Network!)

"Tell him that I am waiting for him in the desert. If he has the courage, come and avenge his son!"

Zhu Ze stood there in a daze, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. At Chen Dao's urging, he picked up Xu Gai's head with trembling hands and fled from the imperial tent in embarrassment.

Inside the big tent.

The atmosphere was heavy and solemn. Zhuge Dan and the generals all looked solemn, their eyes focused on the ownerless body on the ground, and they were still deeply shocked by the sudden killing.

Liu Bei's killing came too fast, catching everyone off guard. Everyone was still unable to get out of shock.

After a moment of silence.

Zhuge Dan was the first to break free from the whirlpool of thoughts. He slowly bowed his hands, with admiration in his eyes:

"II understand. Your Majesty's plan is actually a method of provoking the general."

"Your Majesty knows that Xu Huang has a strong temper. This move will surely anger him. How can Xu Huang not go to fight in anger?"

As soon as these words came out, the generals suddenly understood.

At this moment, they suddenly realized that the emperor's move was not a simple killing, but a long-term plan, intended to induce Xu Huang to take the initiative to fight at the lowest cost.3.7

Liu Bei took a sip of the wine in the glass, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his tone was full of unquestionable confidence:

"Everyone, since you know my plan, you should return to your camps, urge the soldiers to conserve their energy, and wait well."

"I believe that soon, Xu Huang will not be able to hold back and lead the army to come in person! ”

“When that happens, it will be time for us to send out all our forces and defeat them in one fell swoop.” []
