He touched his chin, stood up from his position, and came to Cao Ren.

Seeing Cao Ren's ashamed look, Bai Ren looked calm.

He said to Cao Ren: "Victory and defeat are common matters for military officers.

Why should General Zixiao care so much about the victory and defeat in a battle?

The worst thing is to take back Xiapi City."

"Zifu, alas" Cao Ren looked at Bai Ren's calm expression and sighed helplessly.

He looked at Bai Ren and said in a tone of voice: "Xiapi City is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Now our army has to face Yuan Yuan from the north.

It’s probably really difficult for Tan’s army to recapture Xiapi City.”

"Don't worry, in the worst case we can repel Yuan Tan's army first and then deal with Liu Bei."

Bai Ren slowly returned to his position and said to Cao Ren in a calm tone.

Bai Ren is not afraid of Yuan Tan. he.

"Report, there has been a movement in the Yuan Army camp in the north.

Yuan Tan's army is retreating to Qingzhou in the north."

At this time, a soldier came to Bai Ren's camp with a somewhat anxious look and said in a nervous tone.

"Yuan Tan's army retreated so easily."

Zang Ba on the side heard the news and said with a somewhat surprised expression, and then looked at Bai Ren who also looked a little surprised.

"I'm afraid it's a good idea for Yuan Tan to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers."

Jia Xu sat down with a gloomy look on his face and sneered, saying in a flat tone.

"Yuan Tan really wants our army to fight to the death with Liu Bei's army, but he comes to pick up a ready-made one.

It's really treacherous."

Cao Ren on the side also said with a somewhat angry look after hearing Jia Xu's words.

"Yuan Tan, we can put it aside.

The main thing now is how to defeat Liu Bei and recapture Xiapi.

After all, the lord is about to fight Yuan Shao, and there can't be a hungry wolf like Liu Bei behind him."

Bai Ren looked at Cao Ren, who looked a little angry.

He touched his chin, and then said in a heavy tone.

"Come here, tell me, I'm going to Xiapi City to meet Liu Bei."

Bai Ren thought for a while, but still couldn't think of how to defeat Liu Bei, so he hesitated and decided to meet Liu Bei, his good friend.

At this time in Xiapi City, Liu Bei returned to his familiar Zhoumufu, looking extremely happy.

At this time, Liu Bei was sitting in the hall.

On the left were the generals Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and on the right were the ministers Mi Zhu, Sun Qian, and Jian Yong. , this can be said to be Liu Bei's current team.

"My lord, now that we have captured Xiapi City, we should quickly recapture the other prefectures and counties in Xuzhou, so that my lord can rely on the entire Xuzhou to become a hegemon."

Sun Qian on the side said to Liu Bei with a somewhat pleased expression.

Liu Bei also had a proud smile on his face.

He looked at his subordinate Wu, and then looked at Guan Yu who looked a little serious.

He asked Guan Yu, "Yun Chang, why are you looking so sad?"

"Lord, I think it's better to be careful now.

We should defend Xiapi first instead of expanding.

I believe Cao Cao will definitely send a large army to attack us.

Now we'd better not act rashly."

Guan Yu touched his long beard and said He looked at Liu Bei a little seriously and said.

Liu Bei listened to Guan Yu's words, touched his beard, and nodded.

After all, his current military strength was really limited and it was not suitable to divide his troops and march.

"Report to the lord, there is a Cao army under the city, and the general leading it wants to see the lord."

At this time, a guard came to the hall with a nervous look and looked at Liu Bei who was sitting in the main seat and said.

Liu Bei was slightly stunned when he heard this, and said in a daze: "Why did Cao's army come so fast?

Could it be that Cao Mengde personally led the troops?

Yun Chang, Yide, let's go out and take a look."

Under the city, Bai Ren rode silently, while Zang Ba and Zhang Liao followed Bai Ren, looking at the top of Xiapi City with a somewhat calm expression.

At the top of the city at this time, Liu Bei led Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to stand by the city wall.

Liu Bei looked at Bai Ren at the bottom of the city and shouted with some surprise: "Zi Fu" "Liu Xuande, Duke Cao values ​​you so highly, why did you betray Duke Cao?"

Bai Ren, who was at the bottom of the city, also saw Liu Bei at the top of the city, touched his chin, and shouted to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei touched his beard and looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

Seeing that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were silent, he touched his beard and shouted to Bai Ren below in a loud voice: "Bai Zifu, I I am a member of the Han clan.

Now that the emperor is being persecuted by Cao's thieves, and now that I have escaped from Xuchang, I must gather strength to attack Cao's thieves and save His Majesty from water and fire. " Bai Ren at the bottom of the city almost believed Liu Bei's words after hearing what he said.

However, Bai Ren also knew that Liu Bei was a powerful figure in the world.

A man like him would never be willing to be subordinate to others.

If Liu Bei had a power like Cao Cao now, I'm afraid Liu Bei would do the same.

It is definitely not much different from Cao Cao.

"Haha, Liu Xuande, my lord has served your majesty wholeheartedly.

He killed the two thieves Li Guo in Chang'an and captured Yuan Shu for his rebellion in Huainan.

If it weren't for my lord, there would be so many rebels in this world."

Bai Ren looked at Liu Bei and said calmly.

Liu Bei shouted from the top of the city.

After listening to Bai Ren's words, Liu Bei showed a reluctant smile, and then said to Bai Ren in a serious tone: "Although your lord has the name of a Han official, he is actually a Han traitor.

Bai Zifu is an outstanding person, why don't you leave?"

He will help me revive the Han Dynasty and leave a name of loyal minister and good general in the history books."

"Haha, Liu Xuande, don't try to persuade me.

It's impossible for me to betray Sikong.

At worst, the two of us will fight to the death.

Come on, retreat."

Bai Ren looked at Liu Bei and sneered outside the city, and then said to The soldiers behind him shouted, and then left Xiapi City.

"My lord, this Bai Zifu is an expert in commanding troops.

How should we deal with him?"

Zhang Fei looked at Bai Ren retreating and asked Liu Bei with a heavy expression.

After listening to Zhang Fei's words, Liu Bei looked at Bai Ren who was walking away, and said to Zhang Fei in a calm tone: "It's all easy.

Now that Xiapi City is in the hands of our army, it can be said that Bai Zifu has an army of 100,000."

It may not be possible to break through.

As long as our army holds on to Xiapi City, after some time, Bai Zifu will definitely retreat without a fight."

"My lord, what you said is true."

After listening to Liu Bei's words, Guan Yu touched the long beard on his chest and said to Liu Bei with a certain tone.

"Haha, I am guarding Xiapi City here.

I want to see what Bai Zifu is capable of and can break this fortified city."

After hearing Guan Yu's words of approval, Liu Bei said with excitement, stroking his beard and laughing.

"Now Xiapi City has strong walls.

I'm afraid Liu Bei will definitely defend Xiapi City by then, and our army will be unable to do anything."

At this time, Bai Ren sat silently in the big tent of the military camp, looking at Wu below.

Then he looked at Cao Ren and said with a somewhat unwilling expression.

"It's not that I have nothing to do.

I already have a way to conquer Xiapi City."

Bai Ren looked at Cao Ren's frustrated look, touched his chin, and said to Cao Ren and Wu below with a heavy expression.

"Zifu, you have an idea."

After hearing what Bai Ren said, Cao Ren looked at Bai Ren with a surprised expression and asked.

"Yes, I have a solution, but this solution is not very good.

I'm afraid that the people of Xiapi City will hate me by then."

Bai Ren looked at Cao Ren's questioning eyes and sighed helplessly.

"General, do you want to flood Xiapi City?"

Jia Xu on the side had already seen through Bai Ren's thoughts, and said to Bai Ren with a somewhat surprised tone.

"Flooding, yes, it's a good idea," Cao Ren said with a smile on his face after hearing Jia Xu's words.

"I don't think so.

If the water floods Xiapi, what will happen to the people in the city?

Then my army, Cao, will be infamous.

I'm afraid it will also be bad for your reputation, Zifu."

Cao Ang looked at Bai Ren's hesitant look, and then looked at Looking at Cao Ren's excited look, he said to Bai Ren in a heavy tone.

"My Bai Zifu's reputation" Bai Ren thought for a moment, looked at Jia Xu's casual nod, and finally showed a sneer: "I used this strategy, and I, Bai Zifu, will bear all the infamy."
