Three Caos fighting for a bride? Zhen Ji, I, Cao Zhi, will take her!

It was the night that Cao Zhi's army left Yecheng.

Another team also quietly left Yecheng.

This team was led by Xiahou Dun.

The four generals who followed were Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Zhang He, and Ju Qi.

The army had a total of 20,000 people.

Among them, there were 6,000 cavalry and 14,000 infantry.

And among these six thousand cavalry.

There are 4,000 of them, and they are the most elite Tiger and Leopard Cavalry under Cao Cao.

Because Cao Chun died.

Now this Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is led by Cao Ren.

To avenge Cao Chun.

Cao Cao even asked Cheng Yu to go with the army to provide advice and strategies.

……

After learning the news that Liu Bei occupied Qingzhou.

Although Cao Cao did not respond immediately.

But the army needs food and fodder.

They had long been placed by Cao Cao in various places along the way.

Therefore, Xiahou Dun and others went on this expedition.

No civilians were conscripted to escort the food and fodder along the way.

A team of 20,000 people.

Not only are there the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry led by Cao Ren, but also the Halberd Cavalry led by Ju Qi, and strategists like Cheng Yu.

It can be seen that this time, Cao Cao not only wanted to take back Qingzhou from Zhang Fei, but also wanted Zhang Fei's life.

According to Cao Cao.

Cao Zhi has already given him such a treasure (referring to the obedient water). If he cannot kill Zhang Fei in one fell swoop this time, all the fighting he has done in his half life will be in vain.

……

Qingzhou.

Linzi.

It was the same as what Cao Zhi and Guo Jia had guessed.

The day after Liu Bei and Guan Yu left Xia Pi.

Zhang Fei left Xuzhou and went north to Qingzhou to take charge of Linzi.

In order to prevent Zhang Fei from drinking and causing trouble.

Liu Bei directly sent Sun Qian and Jian Yong to Zhang Fei.

Before setting off, Xu Shu also specifically sought out Zhang Fei.

He told him about the danger of the surprise attack on Xu Du that he, Liu Bei and Guan Yu had led.

Seeing Xu Shu speak so seriously.

Zhang Fei immediately patted his chest and made a promise.

He said that he would not drink any alcohol while he was in Linzi this time.

With Xu Shu's instructions.

There were also Sun Qian and Jian Yong by his side.

Zhang Fei had just arrived in Linzi a few days ago.

There really wasn't anything weird going on.

Every morning, he would inspect the defenses along the city walls;

At noon, I went to the granary to check the grain;

At night, he sat in the lobby of the governor's mansion.

He stayed by the side of Sun Qian and Jian Yong, watching them handle government affairs.

In Zhang Fei's view, once Liu Bei regained the emperor, he and others would immediately head south to Jingzhou.

Therefore, on the premise of ensuring that the army has sufficient food.

Zhang Fei also opened the granaries and released grain on a large scale.

It was claimed that this was the behavior of Liu Bei and Liu Xuande.

This proves that Liu Bei is in Qingzhou.

Seeing Zhang Fei achieve this, Sun Qian and Jian Yong were greatly relieved.

But what the two of them didn't expect was——

After holding on for five days, Zhang Fei's true colors were revealed!

Daily itinerary.

From the original diligent work all day.

Became what it is now.

Take a walk around the city wall in the morning.

After finding no problem.

He just hid in his house and drank alone.

Seeing that Zhang Fei, the commander-in-chief of the three armies, was so lazy, Sun Qian and Jian Yong were dumbfounded.

……

One day.

Jian Yong called Sun Qian to his residence.

As soon as they met, Jian Yong expressed his concerns.

"Gongyou (Sun Qian, courtesy name Gongyou), the three generals are so passive and lazy. If Cao's army attacks, Qingzhou will be in danger!"

"Of course I know this, but you know the Third General's character. It's useless for anyone of us to say anything. Fortunately, he's drinking alone, and not dragging all the generals along!"

Sun Qian spread his hands and said helplessly.

"I've been feeling restless these past few days, always feeling like something's going to happen. Qingzhou is strategically located, and who knows when Cao's army will attack? Given the three generals' current state, I'm really scared..."

Jian Yong continued.

"Since the three generals are giving up, then we should do more. Every morning after accompanying the three generals to inspect the city defenses, we should send more scouts out to find out the movements of Cao's army!"

Sun Qian thought for a moment and said in a deep voice.

"That's the only way!"

Jian Yong said helplessly.

"Oh, right, before Mr. Xu left, he told us to make a big noise over the next few days to attract Cao's army's attention!"

"Otherwise, if Cao's army discovers our Lord's whereabouts and attacks us, not only will we not be able to capture the Emperor, but we will also lose our Lord, the Second General, and Mr. Xu!"

Suddenly, Jian Yong thought of what Xu Shu had told them before he left.

Sun Qian was also shocked to hear Jian Yong say this.

The two looked at each other.

Then they both sighed deeply.

Zhang Fei is good in every way.

The only bad thing is that he is addicted to alcohol.

Whenever he drinks, nothing good happens.

"For now, the only solution is for you and me to go and persuade him in person!"

Sun Qian sighed.

"That's the only way. Even if the three generals want to kill you and me, he must do something to support the lord!"

Jian Yong said in a deep voice.

……

The next morning.

It's just dawn.

Sun Qian and Jian Yong.

Then they arrived at Zhang Fei's residence.

Just opened the gate.

The two were shocked by the scene before them.

Only in the yard at this time.

It was filled with wine jars that were twice as big as ordinary wine jars.

The outside of the wine jar is covered with beautiful paper-cuts.

Zhang Fei was holding a wine gourd in his hand at this moment.

While looking at the wine jar in the yard, he poured the wine from the gourd into his mouth.

"This……"

Sun Qian and Jian Yong couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in their hearts.

"Mr. Sun, Mr. Jian, you are here!"

"I've just got a batch of fine wine and was just about to send someone to invite you over!"

"Don't leave for a while, we won't go home until we're drunk!"

"No, not only will I invite you, I'll also call all the guards in Linzi City over, and let's all drink heartily. This is a rare fine wine, much better than the village brew we usually drink!"

Zhang Fei was like a child showing off his toys.

Show off his fine wine to Sun Qian and Jian Yong.

"Third General, where did this wine come from?"

Sun Qian frowned.

Just from the appearance, Sun Qian could tell that this wine was extraordinary.

"Hahahaha, this wine was given to me by old Xun Yu!"

Zhang Fei said proudly.

"You also know that we captured Xun You from the Xun family of Yingchuan last time!"

"Brother deliberately wrote a letter to deceive Xun Yu, saying that he would have to use 200,000 dan of grain in exchange for Xun You!"

"Xun Yu replied, saying they are willing to offer 300,000 dan of grain in exchange for Xun You, Xu Huang, and Li Dian!"

"But because there is too much food, it is difficult to prepare it at once. But I am also worried that Xun You will suffer at our hands, so I sent someone to send you some fine wine. I hope we can treat Xun You better!"

"I have to say, these nobles have connections. Did you know? Some of the fine wine in here is the imperial wine that only the emperor can drink!"

Zhang Fei showed off to Sun Qian and Jian Yong as if he knew all his treasures by heart.

As for Sun Qian and Jian Yong.

At this moment, after hearing Zhang Fei's words.

The two were completely dumbfounded.

The Xun family sent so much fine wine to Zhang Fei's residence, and the two of them didn't even know about it!!!

Thinking of this, cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of the two.

"How about it, this wine is good!"

Zhang Fei came up to the two of them and said with a proud look on his face.

"That's bullshit, Third General! If you keep going like this, Linzi will be in danger, and our lord will be in danger!"

Jian Yong was very disappointed that his son had failed to become as good as him.

Because of anger, Jian Yong kicked the wine jar in front of him and broke it into pieces.

Suddenly, amber liquid flowed out of the wine jar.

In a small yard.

In an instant, I was enveloped by the aroma of wine.

The expression on Zhang Fei's face.

Because of this jar of fine wine, he became ferocious...
