Three Kingdoms: Gou Shen I was overheard by Cao Cao

Page 680

"Gongtai, go quickly, call the people and ask them if they are willing to go with Liu Bei! I believe that with my people's hearts, I can definitely take them away!"

Liu Bei saw clearly that Cao Ying had a large number of cavalry.

And they would never be able to run away from Cao Ying with their families and remnants.

But as long as these people are taken away, not only can the tax revenue be kept.

It can make Cao Cao fearful and dare not attack them indiscriminately, which can be said to serve multiple purposes!

The most important thing... Liu Bei wants to set fire to Xinye, he doesn't want Cao Cao to get every brick!

The prerequisite for burning Xinye is to transfer the people first, otherwise Liu Bei will be a sinner through the ages.

Hearing this, Chen Gong shook his head decisively.

"No! I have already asked the people before, and none of them... is willing to leave with the lord!"

"How is it possible? Why is this? I, Liu Bei, treat the people well and often give out straw sandals to give out porridge. How can they be so ruthless?"

Liu Bei couldn't believe it, he felt that he should be very popular!

Such a result was somewhat unacceptable to him.

Seeing that Liu Bei still wanted to ask about the common people, Chen Gong and Zhuge Liang glanced at each other and shook their heads in unison.

When Liu Bei desperately made money last time, the hearts of the people had already been lost.

Moreover, Liu Bei has been staying in the county government to enjoy the blessings, and he hasn't been to the people for a long time, so he doesn't know what the county has become.

"My lord, stop asking! You won't want to know!"

"If we don't retreat, it will be too late!"

Liu Bei sighed, with a look of despair on his face.

"Since the people are unwilling, then... withdraw!"

Liu Bei and others led some remnants of the army, took their families and some supplies, and withdrew towards Fancheng in the south.

Two hours later, it was already dark.

The city of Xinye was destroyed, most of the guards died, and the few remaining people surrendered.

Cao Cao entered the city, settled down the army, and took everyone to the county government office to count the remaining supplies.

But...no bullshit!

The warehouse was empty.

"Forget it, Liu Beiqiong is well known."

"Don't worry guys, I, Cao Cao, will reward you for your merits, so remember to pay it later!"

Cao Cao turned around, slightly disappointed.

The corners of everyone's eyes trembled slightly. They were most afraid of Cao Cao's accounting.

They felt that Cao Cao should not be allowed to develop this bad habit.

A group of people looked at each other, and finally fixed their eyes on Cao Chun.

"Hey? Me? Well, if I don't go to hell, whoever goes to hell!"

Chapter 779

"My lord! You want to be a white wolf again? Last time you said to keep accounts, and you said the same thing last time, but you didn't send it once!"

"Do you want to be a dishonest person? This person, you can't lose your integrity!"

"Look at me, Cao Chun. Although I'm poor, I said when to pay the employees of 'Stinky Cao Ji', that's the date!"

Cao Chun was pushed out by the crowd, and looked at Cao Cao bravely.

Cao Cao took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and uttered a word with great difficulty.

"Send it! I'll send it now! My brother, lend me some emergency money first, I don't have any money with me!"

Xia Houzhe rolled his eyes, this forced him to want to be a white wolf again.

But as a brother and son-in-law, he wouldn't be so stingy and throw out two thousand gold with his backhand.

After everyone shared some, each of them smiled happily.

After doing all this, everyone came to the prisoner camp again.

Xing Daorong and Liao Hua were tightly bound and thrown on the ground.

Cao Cao looked at Xing Daorong playfully.

"The defeated general, tell me how you want to die?"

"General Lingling, what a majesty!"

Being stared at by Cao Cao like this, Xing Daorong panicked and kowtowed to beg for mercy.

A nose, a tear flow.

"Prime Minister, please spare me! I am not really an enemy of the Prime Minister, I was forced by Liu Bei! What kind of admiral is it just to make a living!"

"I seem to be against you, but it's not! I voted for you in the name of fighting!"

"Look... the little one is now appearing in your place aboveboard? The little one's loyalty can be learned from the world!"

Looking at Xing Daorong's sincere (brazen) appearance, everyone's eyes widened.

Can you still do this?

The tongue is very slippery, black can also be said to be white.

Everyone was amused by him, and before they could open their mouths, Xing Daorong started talking again.

"Prime Minister! All handsome generals, the younger one has an 80-year-old mother, and the younger one has a poor wife and children, please show me kindness and let me go!"

"Let you go? You are the enemy. What are we going to do with you? It's no good!"

"Come on, pull it out and chop it!"

Xia Houzhe said jokingly.

In fact, it doesn't make any difference whether a useless Xing Daorong is let go or not.

With an order, guards came in and escorted Xing Daorong out, ready to behead him.

Xing Daorong was terrified, kept kowtowing and screaming.

"If Mister releases me, I can act as your internal response and lead an army into the city to capture Brother Liu Bei alive!"

"Prime Minister! Mr. Xiahou! Please let me go!"

This unbearable appearance made Liao Hua, who was also a prisoner, contempt for a while.

"Fuck! Look at you, you are so big and thick, why are you so useless? You will die if you die, but you have a scar the size of a bowl. What are you afraid of? I am ashamed to be with you!"

Hearing this, Xing Daorong sighed.

"You don't feel pain in your back when you stand and talk, let me try to put a knife on your neck!"

"Prime Minister, I sincerely ask you to surrender! I will wholeheartedly help the Prime Minister take down Fancheng!"

Cao Cao didn't have any idea about Xing Daorong, who was sloppy in martial arts and liked to brag.

It's useless to stay in Cao Ying, but it will make him lose face.

"My dear brother, do you want to keep this stuff for you, so that you two can brag about each other?"

"Get out! Blow you, uncle, let it go!" Xia Houzhe rolled his eyes, and looked at Fatty Xing again.

"Xing Daorong, let me tell you, if you break your promise and become fat, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"No, no, no! Thank you sir, thank you Prime Minister! I will definitely open the city gate for you!"

The rope on Xing Daorong's body was untied, he kowtowed a few times and ran towards Fancheng without slowing down if the uppers of his shoes were damaged.

Cao Ying is too dangerous...

No one cared about Xing Daorong's departure, he was just a little hot chicken.

Xia Houzhe turned his eyes to Liao Hua, and untied the rope for him with his own hands.

Although the young general in front of him is not very good now, he has a good future and can carry half the sky.

And like Zhou Cang, he is a loyal and brave man with excellent character.

"Yuan Jian, get up!"

"Sir, this is... How did you know the villain's name? A certain one is just a soldier?"

Although Liao Hua didn't like Cao Ying, he was flattered by Xia Houzhe's behavior.

Xia Houzhe chuckled and made some food for Liao Hua.

"Eat it! I like loyal and brave men the most in my life. I know who is loyal and who is righteous!"

"But... I can't let you go, stay in Cao Ying for a while!"

"I know you have some different views on Cao Ying, but after you stay for a long time, you will realize how good it is here!"

After Xia Houzhe finished speaking, he left the county government office with Cao Cao and others, and did not control Liao Hua any more.

This kind of loyal and brave people are generally brain-dead, and if you want to subdue them, you have to subtly change the other party's thinking.

In Cao Ying, he didn't worry that Liao Hua could escape, so he didn't need to monitor him.

Looking at the back of Xia Houzhe leaving, Liao Hua's eyes flickered, and his mood was extremely complicated.

Leaving the county government office, everyone was about to part, and Cao Cao was going to sleep.

Guo Jia, Cao Chun, Cheng Yu and others gathered together mysteriously, as if they were discussing something.

A group of people retreated slowly to the county government office.

This scene was noticed by the tired Cao Cao.

"Hmph! You guys, what do you want to do with the money?"

"Ugh, my lord! This soldier is arranged by Gao Shun, so we don't need us, so we are going to do good deeds!"

Everyone remained calm, and calmly clapped their hands and replied.

Cao Cao squinted and looked at them suspiciously.

"You think I'm stupid? What good deeds are you doing at night?"

"From your wretched and evasive eyes, I can see that there is a ghost!"

"You must have ghosts! Be honest, I will be lenient, and I won't hold you accountable during off-duty hours!"

Cheng Yu and the others couldn't let go, coughed lightly and didn't speak.

Guo Jia stood up with a smile.

"We...we are going to help poor girls and young women who have lost their feet! Such kind deeds can only be done at night."

As soon as these words came out, Cao Cao Xia Houzhe staggered and almost fell to the ground.

What a bunch of lsps!

"Is there a prostitute here?"

"While you're a prostitute, you'll be a prostitute. I know you all like to play around with each other."

"What are you talking about so high-minded? Would I not allow it to be fought so hard? There's no need to hide it!"

"Let's go, everyone will spend tonight, my lord, I invite you! Let's go drink some flower wine, relax, and continue the battle tomorrow!"

Cao Cao beckoned and asked Guo Jia to lead the way.

This guy is good at fighting and paddling, but he is very good at finding brothels, after all, he has opened brothels before.

Every time he enters the city, the first thing Guo Jia notices is that there is a brothel in a corner...

Listening to Cao Cao's grand words, everyone was overjoyed.

They gave thumbs up one by one, and praised Cao Cao's generosity one after another, flattering one after another.

"My lord is finally generous once. In fact, I don't think there is anything wrong with going to the brothel!"
