146. Food shortage

When Zhang Fei saw Cao Chun leading the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry coming, he immediately realized that he could not be good today.

So he hurriedly said to Zhang Liao: "Wenyuan, I beg you today. If you don't want them to take back this carriage."

Zhang Liao also heard some eyebrows at this moment, looked at Zhang Fei speechlessly, and finally nodded, "Third General, you are... Alas, I'll do my best."

"Wen Yuan, this matter is here, I owe you a favor. Hahaha!" Zhang Fei laughed after saying that.

"Chun, Cao Chun, Zhang Yide, a man from Yan, is here, and he has the courage to come up and die!" After laughing, Zhang Fei shook the snake spear in his hand and provoked directly at Cao Chun.

When Cao Chun saw it, he immediately ordered the tiger and leopard cavalry to attack. Then he rushed towards Zhang Fei first.

Xiahou Yuan didn't see it, so he led people to rush to Zhang Liao, with the goal of grabbing the frame.

Zhang Liao agreed to Zhang Fei and naturally would not let Xiahou Yuan succeed, so he stopped Xiahou Yuan by dancing a big sword.

This melee started instantly.

Although Xiahou Yuan wanted to take back his daughter, Cao Chun wanted to kill Zhang Fei.

However, because Zhang Liao came to support in time, all this was obviously impossible.

The two sides fought for a while, leaving behind corpses all over the ground. Zhang Fei and Zhang Liao became more and more brave as they fought, and Cao Chun and Xiahou Yuan were in a mess.

If the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry had not had the strong combat power, they might have been left together today.

Seeing that Xiahou Huo could not be taken back, Xiahou Yuan and Cao Chun had no choice but to lead their troops to retreat.

When Zhang Fei saw them withdraw, he immediately laughed to the sky.

Smile.

In order to avoid the long night and the dreams, Zhang Fei did not return to Pengcheng with Zhang Liao, but instead took people back to Xuzhou directly.

For the happiness of his second half of his life, Mr. Zhang San also fought hard this time.

Liu Yu in Xuzhou City was walking anxiously in the yard.

In the room not far away, Lu Qiling is giving birth.

She had practiced martial arts body and gave birth to a daughter for Liu Yu in just half an hour.

Liu Yu loved his daughter very much and gave her nickname: Nannan.

Liu Bei also loved this eldest granddaughter very much, so he personally named her Tong. Then he ordered the provincial governor's mansion to hold a banquet to celebrate.

Just as the banquet was held here, Zhang Fei took Xiahouhuo back to the city.

When Liu Bei heard the report, he was relieved that his third brother had finally found a wife.

Even the defeat this time was revealed and he would not blame him anymore.

Zhang Fei was overjoyed and decided to marry Xiahouhuo as soon as possible.

Xiahouhuo accepted his fate at this time. She was snatched by Zhang Fei, and her father was unable to snatch him back. So although she was unwilling to accept it, she had to marry Zhang Fei.

In the next few days, Liu Yu and others were busy with Zhang Fei's wedding.

It was finally settled.

Liu Bei's second wife, Mi Huan, was about to give birth.

Liu Bei experienced another anxious wait, and Mrs. Mi gave birth to a daughter for him.

While Liu Bei was happy, he named his daughter Liu Ying.

It was naturally a lively place in Xuzhou City.

However, Cao Cao, who was far away in Guandu, felt very anxious at this time.

The reason is that the army has fewer food and grass.

While ordering people to speed up the raising of food and grass, they sent people to buy food from Liu Bei.

On Liu Bei's side, because of Zhang Fei's robbery, the lion decided to speak loudly and knock Cao Cao with a slap.

And this errand was taken over by Liu Yu.

The person Cao Cao sent to buy food this time was not someone else's third son Cao Zhi.

"Brother Chang'an, it's been a long time since I saw Liu Bei." After seeing Liu Bei, Cao Zhi bowed to Liu Yu.

"Brother Zijian, it's been a long time since I was gone." Liu Yuyi smiled and replied.

When Liu Bei saw it, he laughed and said, "Since you two are familiar with each other, then you two will do the next thing!"

After saying that, he got up and went back.

When Liu Yu saw Liu Bei leave, he led Cao Zhi to the side hall and ordered someone to put tea.

"Brother Chang'an, you should know why I came. Now my father confronted Yuan Shao in Guandu, but the army was short of food, so he was willing to buy a batch of food and grass from Xuzhou at a high price." Cao Zhi said the word "high price" very seriously.

After hearing this, Liu Yu laughed and said, "Zijian, let me tell you the truth! My father was resentful of the last time you wanted to cure my third uncle, so the food price this time may be even higher!"

After hearing this, Cao Zhi smiled bitterly: "This matter is not my idea. Can Chang'an help persuade me in view of my own opinion?

My father's arrival is also a test for me. I would like to ask Brother Chang'an to do his best to help me and to repay you with your help."

Seeing that he didn't look like he was fake, Liu Yu immediately comforted him: "Brother Zijian, don't worry. Whether this matter is successful or not will not affect your friendship. Even if it doesn't work, I won't tell you to return empty-handed."

"I would like to thank Brother Chang'an for this." Cao Zhi was overjoyed and quickly thanked him.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. I happen to have something here that I want to discuss with Brother Zijian." Liu Yu nodded and responded.

"Oh, Brother Chang'an just say anything." Cao Zhi smiled and said with a smile after hearing Liu Yu's words.

Liu Yu smiled slightly and said, "I want to ask Zijian for help. I want to fight horses and population this time. I wonder if Zijian may make the decision?"

After hearing this, Cao Zhi frowned and said, "This war horse is definitely not good. We don't have many war horses, but it should be OK to trade with the population."

"Okay, I'll talk to you too. But, can you really make the decision on this matter? Don't you need to ask your father for advice?"

"Brother Chang'an, don't worry. My father had already asked me to be fully responsible for this matter before coming, but this food and grass are urgently needed after all, and I hope it can be delivered soon." Cao Zhi spoke in a hurry because he was afraid of the long night and dreams.

Liu Yu nodded and said, "Okay, you can sit for a while, and I'll go find my father now."

After saying that, he turned around and came to the back.

When he saw Liu Bei telling the matter, Liu Bei asked inexplicably, "My son, my Xuzhou is already a large population, what's the use of you coming to these populations?"

"Father, Xuzhou has a large population, but Qingzhou and Liaodong have fewer people! If we want to improve our combat power, the population is essential.

At that time, we can move all the excess population to Qingzhou and Liaodong.

By the way, there is also a land in Huaibei, and now there is a shortage of population. Uncle II has said this more than once, father, have you forgotten?"

"Yes, my second brother mentioned this. I was thinking about whether to move some people from Xuzhou. Now it seems that there is no need to touch the population of Xuzhou." Liu Bei smiled and smiled.

"I'm afraid that Cao Cao will change his mind now. After all, there are smart people under his command, so he will not be unaware of the importance of population."

Liu Bei waved his hand disapprovingly and said, "Don't worry, my son is short of food this time, Cao Mengde is now asking me for it. He knows that the population is important, so what? Does he have excess food to support those people?"

When Liu Yu heard this, he suddenly realized that Cao Cao was short of food, and reducing the population could save a lot of food. This was an open conspiracy, and he was not afraid that Cao Cao would not agree.
