Chapter 95

"Shameless!"

"Despicable!"

In the empty central command tent, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were so angry that they were jumping around. The commander had fled, so there was no need to fight; they had already lost. However, the court had strictly ordered them to stay, and they could not leave. This was clearly a death sentence, and who could bear it?

Liu Bei, who had suffered from Dong Zhuo's contempt for several days, finally came to the central command tent again and joined in, shouting: "Dong Zhuo, you pig and coward!"

Qin Feng scratched his head and thought, "Everyone has left, so even if you call him a pig and a coward, it won't do any good. You could even call him a turtle, but it wouldn't help." He sat down on the mat and said, "Stop cursing, it won't do any good. Dong Zhuo left without a word, what will the soldiers think? The most important thing now is to calm the troops and hold out for reinforcements."

"Zijin, are you still thinking about staying here to resist the Yellow Turbans?" Yuan Shao was greatly surprised and continued, "Even if we count every last man, we only have 30,000 troops, while the Yellow Turbans have over 200,000. How can we fight?"

Liu Bei said urgently, "Since Dong Zhuo has left, let's leave too."

Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were anxious and forgot about everything else, thinking that if Dong Zhuo could leave, they could leave as well.

But unexpectedly, Qin Feng's emotionless voice came, "Dong Zhuo can leave, and Xuande can leave. How can we leave? With 30,000 troops?" He stood up and sneered, "Not to mention whether we can escape the Yellow Turbans' pursuit, if we retreat, we will be handing Jizhou over to the Yellow Turbans. The crime of losing territory without a fight, no one can protect us from."

Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were speechless upon hearing this.

Qin Feng suddenly waved to Liu Bei, "Liu Xuande, you can leave."

Cao Cao and Yuan Shao exchanged glances, thinking, "Zijin, are you out of your mind? In this situation, every person counts. Liu Xuande hasn't even said he wants to leave, and you're telling him to go. He'll leave immediately!"

In fact, Liu Bei's presence or absence didn't matter much, but Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were both fierce generals, and Qin Feng needed their strength. Qin Feng was afraid Liu Bei would leave, so he deliberately said this to provoke him. If Qin Feng asked Liu Bei for help, Liu Bei might make a huge demand.

Sure enough, Qin Feng had calculated correctly.

Liu Bei's face twitched, thinking, "If I leave, Qin Zijin can report to the court, and my past achievements will be erased. Even though I am just a local hero, if the court wants to punish me, I can't escape." Liu Bei's big ears flapped, and he immediately became righteous, patting the three characters "Imperial Auxiliary Army" on his chest, and said, "I, Liu Xuande, am a member of the imperial family. How can I imitate Dong Zhuo, that pig and coward? I will stay and hold out until the last moment." He was moved and said to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, "We raised our army to serve the state and protect the people. In this time of crisis, we do not seek to be born on the same day, but we seek to die on the same day!"

What kind of people were Guan Yu and Zhang Fei? Moved by Liu Bei's passion, they were immediately excited and bowed, saying, "We are willing to follow our elder brother, not seeking to be born on the same day, but seeking to die on the same day!"

Seeing the three brothers' deep bond, Qin Feng felt a chill but could not help but admire Liu Bei's skill in rallying people.

People like Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, who were full of ambition, were also inspired by the three brothers and felt their courage increase.

However, they had the courage but did not know how to proceed.

At this moment, Qin Feng spoke, "A snake without a head cannot move. We need to quickly establish a commander, gather the troops, and have all the middle-ranking officers present. We need to formulate a detailed defense plan to stabilize the troops and hold out for General Huangfu Song's reinforcements."

Through his words, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao had a plan. At the same time, they, who had never had the opportunity to lead independently, were eager to start their first independent command.

With this thought, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao naturally could not give the commander's position to others.

Yuan Shao suddenly came to the steps in front of the commander's position, stood facing south, and waved his hand, saying, "Thank you all for your trust. I am willing to take on the responsibility and lead the troops in preparation for battle!"

Qin Feng thought, it's not bad for Yuan Shao to take the lead.

But before Yuan Shao finished speaking, Cao Cao walked to his left, also facing south, and in a manner reminiscent of Wei Wu, said, "I, Cao Cao, am willing to take on this responsibility and fight the Yellow Turbans with all of you!"

Although they said they were grateful, there was no one else in the tent except Qin Feng and his Dragon Guard generals, Dian Wei and Xu Chu, and Liu Bei and his brothers, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. With Dong Zhuo's departure, they were the only influential figures in the army.

Cao Cao and Yuan Shao exchanged glances and felt the threat from each other.

Cao Cao's dark face became even darker, and he said, "Brother Benchu, I am the commander of the Northern Army's Cavalry, and since Dong Zhuo has left, it is my duty to take charge!"

Yuan Shao laughed harshly, his head swelling, and said, "Mengde, don't forget, I am the commander of the Northern Army's Archers. Since Dong Zhuo has fled, it is my duty to take charge!"

As the two were about to clash, they suddenly sought additional support and looked at Qin Feng and Liu Bei, saying together, "What do you two think?"

Qin Feng cursed silently, showing no emotion, and sat down, motioning for Dian Wei and Xu Chu to serve tea.

Qin Feng was not afraid of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, but he did not dare to offend Liu Bei. He put on a thoughtful look and said, "The two generals have equal positions. Who has a higher salary?"

Both had a salary of 2,000 stones, which was the same.

Thus, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao had equal positions and ranks.

Shortly after, the central command tent was filled with the sound of arguments.

"I am well-versed in literature!"

"I am well-versed in military strategy!"

"I have always had great plans!"

"You are just talking the talk!"

"What!"

"Ah, fight!"

The tent was filled with the sounds of grunts and groans, followed by screams. The soldiers outside heard this and their morale dropped even further. They sighed, "The commander has left, and the generals are fighting among themselves. What can we do..."

Inside the central command tent.

Liu Bei jumped around, shouting, "Generals, let's talk this out, stop fighting, stop fighting!" But he was secretly delighted, thinking, "Good fight, if you both end up half-paralyzed, the commander's position will be mine."

Guan Yu stood on Liu Bei's left, his phoenix eyes narrowed, stroking his beard, and looked at the fighting Cao Cao and Yuan Shao with disdain, thinking, "If it were me, one punch each, and it would be over."

Zhang Fei stood on Liu Bei's right, very interested, and shouted, "General Yuan, left hook! General Cao, right hook!"

Qin Feng sat on a mat nearby, drinking tea, watching Cao Cao and Yuan Shao "wrestle." Dian Wei and Xu Chu stood behind him, thinking, "These two are evenly matched; it's hard to tell who will win."

Seeing Qin Feng calmly drinking tea, Liu Bei had a sudden thought and said, "Second brother, third brother, quickly separate the two generals!"

At their elder brother's command, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stepped forward, one pulling Cao Cao and the other pulling Yuan Shao. However, if it were a fight to the death, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei would be quick and efficient. But in this situation, even they were at a loss.

A minute later, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao were all tangled together, making the scene even more "grand."

Cao Cao was furious, his beard fluttering, and he took a fighting stance, left fist forward, right fist by his right ear, and said, "Yuan Benchu, don't think just because you are from a noble family, you are better. Today, I will show you my strength!"

Yuan Shao's head swelled, and he took a stance for a flying kick, saying, "Cao Mengde, don't be arrogant just because you are the son of a eunuch. Today, I will beat you so badly that even your father won't recognize you!"

"Ah!"

"Ya!" The two charged, and even Guan Yu and Zhang Fei could not control the situation.

Liu Bei was worried, his big ears flapping.

Suddenly, a loud bang echoed through the tent, causing it to shake.

"Ah!" Cao Cao and Yuan Shao shuddered and temporarily stopped fighting.

Everyone looked up to see Qin Feng rise from his seat, his face dark and terrifying. Mobile users, please visit http://m.piaotia.net
