After the official and military envoys left, Liu Bei was patrolling around. Just as he was turning back to the northward front, he suddenly saw a large number of official troops riding out of the village gate and heading this way.

Liu Bei said in his heart, are the envoys from the government and army coming again?

He quickly called the rangers to call the military advisor back.

The military advisor has just left.

——

The person coming is Cao Cao again.

Different from last time, this time Cao Cao came and brought four people with him.

In addition to Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan, there were two famous men in the army.

Same thing, different from last time.

Before Cao Cao and his men could move toward the Zhuozhou Army's line, they were stopped by a hail of arrows at the flag boundary, preventing them from moving forward.

Then, a group of soldiers from the Zhuozhou Army came over, holding long sticks with bright silk tied to them and behaving strangely.

As they approached, the leader of the Zhuozhou Army, a soldier from the Zhuozhou Army, cupped his fist and saluted Cao Cao, and then said stiffly, "The envoy is coming. To prevent the wind and sand, my military advisor has specially ordered us to greet him with a screen."

Saying this, the soldier waved to the people holding the long curtain, opened the long curtain, went to the officers and soldiers, and everyone surrounded him in a circle, sealing their mouths.

The soldiers, Cao Cao and others were all surrounded by silk curtains.

It is covered by a wide curtain that is as tall as a person, and the surrounding view is completely blocked, leaving only one side that is low enough to the calf level to see outside.

But looking out from the crack at the lower level, the road can't be seen far, and nothing else matters.

Cao Cao felt vaguely unhappy.

At this time, the soldiers of Zhuozhou Army cupped their fists and saluted Cao Cao, turned around, and ordered to the people holding curtains around them, "Go!"

Then, Cao Cao and his envoys slowly headed towards the Zhuozhou Army's front line under a strange escort.

It can be called high-end treatment. The Zhuozhou Army said that the wind and sand were too strong, so they specially used cloth curtains to block the wind and sand.

The people used gorgeous silk as a screen, and no one could fault the etiquette.

It's just that it's ridiculous. It's not outside the Great Wall, so why is there so much wind and sand in the sky?

In this way, the official and military envoys were "enclosed" in the curtain and walked all the way to the trench. Cao Cao saw the trench on the side through the slight gap in the lower corner of the curtain.

Then he walked through the aisles between the trenches, and then went forward to the rear formation. I don't know where he was. Through the curtain below, he could only see human legs moving, nothing else.

Being in a closed environment, knowing nothing about the outside world, and having ghosts in their hearts, Cao Cao and others became even more nervous.

A general who followed Cao Cao was nervous due to the closed environment. This man suddenly approached Cao Cao and asked in a low voice, "How about we take action quickly?"

Cao Cao's eyes widened immediately, he was shocked for a moment, and then he looked furious, "Shut up!" Cao Cao yelled in a low voice.

After being scolded by Cao Cao, the general shut up and did not dare to say another word.

The Zhuozhou Army soldier leading the way looked back and seemed not to have heard anything, so he raised his feet and continued walking forward.

(Fortunately, no one from the Zhuozhou Army listened.) Cao Cao's heart skipped a beat.

Cao Cao couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and when he came back to his senses, Cao Cao suddenly found that there was a cold sweat on his forehead.

Cao Cao raised his sleeves and was wiping sweat.

"We're here." The soldier in front suddenly said.

The soldier's ordinary words made Cao Cao, who was wiping his sweat, suddenly startled, his hands trembled, and he was frightened.

Looking up, the front was clear and bright. The curtains blocking the view were opened from the middle to both sides, and a military tent suddenly appeared.

After being stunned for a moment, Cao Cao realized that he was being taken directly outside the tent.

After the curtain was separated from the center and withdrawn to both sides, it was not completely removed. Only the passage for passage was exposed, and both sides were still blocked.

"Please!" The soldier in front stepped aside and extended his hand in invitation.

Cao Cao gathered his thoughts and looked back at the generals behind him with some guilt. When he saw four powerful generals guarding him, Cao Cao regained his confidence and walked forward.

When he reached the curtain door and opened it, Cao Cao took a careful look to the side.

Haven't seen anything.

The person pulling the curtain stuck the curtain to the tent and held it together with his hands. It was a tight fit without even a gap.

Taking a deep breath, Cao Cao stretched out his hand to lift the curtain door and walked closer.

As soon as he entered the military tent and saw the situation clearly, Cao Cao was startled again and stopped immediately.

At the moment when he entered the tent, Cao Cao instantly saw that behind the curtain door, there were two armored men on the left and right, a short couple in the tent, and three armored men with shields on the left and right sides of the tent. Behind them was Liu Xuande, and behind Liu Xuande, there was a man.

A burly man with a spear, a shield, a leopard's head and a ring of eyes was glaring over.

Almost half of the troops were soldiers. Cao Cao almost mistakenly thought that the matter was exposed and the Zhuozhou army was going to kill people.

Fortunately, Cao Cao was not an ordinary person after all. He only panicked for a moment. Cao Cao immediately recovered and continued to walk inward.

Cao Cao entered, followed closely by the four generals behind him.

It is unknown what the thoughtful general thought when he saw the many soldiers in the tent.

In the tent, Liu Bei, who was sitting behind a short table, saw that the envoy was still the envoy from before, so he smiled and said, "Envoy, I see you again. Please take a seat."

Cao Cao bowed his hand to Liu Bei and then sat down on the side.

In the tent, there were two short tables on the left and three and five on the right, which were just enough for Cao Cao and the four generals to sit down.

It was such a coincidence that Cao Cao couldn't help but wonder whether the assassination of Liu Xuande had been known to the Zhuozhou Army... After all, the Zhuozhou Army's little military advisor was as resourceful as a ghost...

Thinking of this, Cao Cao became restless.

It's a coincidence, but the truth is that there are not so many short tables in Zhuozhou's army. Three on the left and three on the right can be just symmetrical. Without a short table, it can only be two on the left and three on the right.

Others in the account.

Cao Cao's envoy did come with the purpose of assassination.

Cao Cao was very brave to assassinate Dong Zhuo alone in the future.

The military situation was critical, and tens of thousands of officers and soldiers were in danger of being overthrown. If Liu Xuande could be assassinated, it would be a way to relieve the emergency. Therefore, Cao Cao used the mission as a cover to lead four brave generals. If there was an opportunity to assassinate him, he might as well carry out the assassination immediately.

The other people in the tent were Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan. As soon as they entered the tent, they also paid attention to the layout of the tent.

The target, Liu Xuande in Zhuozhou, was closely guarded by soldiers on his left and right, and there were powerful generals on his side. Even if he took action, the success would be slim.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Xiahou Dun and Xia Houyuan did not panic and lose control. Fortunately, they could still observe in secret and consider countermeasures.

The other two, although they were also famous warriors in Huangfu Song's army, at this time, they lowered their heads nervously and stared at the shorter ones, not daring to raise their heads to look around.

No matter what, Liu Xuande, who had never brought many guards with him, suddenly disappeared and suddenly there were many more soldiers around him.

This change was so sudden that Xiahou Dun and his men lost any chance of assassination.

"Why did the messenger come this time?"

A sudden question awakened Cao Cao from his wandering thoughts.

Cao Cao hurriedly raised his head and put on a stiff smile with a slightly stiff facial expression, "Our army's lack of sincerity led to the failure of the previous negotiations.

A certain Hui army has negotiated with General Huangfu Song and is willing to compensate the Zhuozhou Army for several days of delay with food, grass and weapons.

Huangfu Zhonglang is already waiting in the army, can Duke Xuande leave immediately for a detailed discussion?"

Cao Cao was smiling at this time, and his smile was very warm and natural, without any harshness at all.

Cao Cao did not show any trace, and specifically mentioned "Huangfu Zhonglang" in his words, which specifically pointed out that Huangfu Song was a high-ranking official of the imperial court. Due to emotions and reasons, Liu Xuande had become white after one term, so he should go to the army, not Huangfu Zhonglang

Lang deigned to come.

Liu Bei frowned for a moment, then looked up at Cao Cao and said with a smile, "The peace talks will benefit both families. It's just that my military advisor is not here. It won't be too late to wait for the military advisor to come back."

Cao Cao saw that his plan was not going to work, so he hurriedly said, "Oh, isn't it true that the Zhuozhou army is led by Duke Xuande? If the military advisor is not around, then Duke Xuande can't take charge of major events?"

What a wonder! A heroic man actually obeys the advice of a child..."

"Hmph! My eldest brother said he would wait for the military advisor, so he will wait for the military advisor! You are such a whiny, irritable guy!"

Zhang Fei snorted angrily and scolded Cao Cao.

Cao Cao was choked and speechless.
