Chapter 171

Lu Lu Lingqi's eyes lit up, and the corners of her mouth curled into a smile, like a blooming flower.

"Really? Does General Liu Xuande like my long legs?!"

Liu Bei coughed.

"Naturally, I like them."

Lu Lu Lingqi was extremely happy, but then felt it was too ambiguous and instantly blushed to her earlobes.

"General Liu Xuande, that is not what I meant..."

Liu Bei looked Lu Lu Lingqi up and down and laughed.

"Oh, Miss Lu, then what did you mean?"

Lu Lu Lingqi rolled her eyes beautifully.

"I never expected the world-renowned General Liu Xuande to tease a young girl!"

Liu Bei laughed.

"Everyone loves beauty; teasing a beauty makes life a little better."

Lu Lu Lingqi felt wonderful inside; her idol, General Liu Xuande, actually praised her as a beauty... so happy!

The two began to chat as if no one else were around.

Lu Lu Lingqi let out crisp laughter from time to time.

"General Liu Xuande, you want to save a million people? That is truly benevolent; the people here have nothing to eat."

Lu Lu Lingqi instantly transformed into Liu Bei's little fan.

"General Liu Xuande is righteous and always keeps the people in his heart."

Lu Bu??

He shook his head, having an ominous premonition.

"Why is Lu Lu Lingqi's voice outside? Huh, where's Liu Bei?"

"Did he steal my home?"

He was shocked, rushed out of the tent, and his expression changed drastically.

His precious daughter was looking at Liu Bei with infatuation, a smile on her lips, her face flushed!

"I guarded against everything, yet he still stole my home?!"

Lu Bu strode toward them.

"Ahem."

Reminding the two to be careful; he was coming!

Liu Bei's expression remained normal.

"Fengxian, a tiger father has no dog daughter. I never expected your daughter's martial arts and insight to be so extraordinary."

Lu Bu snorted; just because she's extraordinary, you have to set your sights on her?

"Why aren't you back accompanying your mother? Why are you out as a girl? What if you run into a lecher!"

After saying this, Lu Bu glanced at Liu Bei!

Liu Bei?? Who is this Lu Bu implying!

Lu Lu Lingqi smiled and quickly ran away.

Lu Bu... that was fast!

He pulled Liu Bei back to drink; he absolutely could not let Liu Bei encounter Lu Lu Lingqi again.

The livestream room's comments exploded.

"Haha, Lu Bu is guarding against him like a thief."

"Little Bububu is quite cute!"

"Miss Lu is top-tier; she looks like a queen, has a supermodel figure, and in an era where women were weak, she really caught my eye."

"Long legs, no fat on the waist, beautiful and heroic; I'm in love!"

"Lu Bu is drinking, and the Big-Eared Thief has already stolen his home! One word: impressive!"

Early the next morning,

Liu Bei bid farewell to Lu Bu and Chen Gong.

"Take care, you two."

"Take care, Liu Xuande."

Lu Bu also cupped his hands; although he didn't like Liu Bei, he had to admit that Liu Bei had great personal charisma and gave people a good feeling.

Liu Bei glanced at the graceful figure on the city wall.

"All troops, set out!"

Liu Bei led his troops around the western part of Dong Commandery, and surprisingly, 200,000 commoners were willing to follow him.

On one hand, Liu Bei's reputation for benevolence was high.

On the other hand, it showed that the people truly couldn't go on; it's hard to leave one's homeland, but they really had no choice.

Liu Bei arrived in Chenliu with the people, and he was stunned himself.

Over 1.7 million people had gathered here, and adding his own 200,000, over 40% of the Yanzhou people were willing to go to Bingzhou with him this time!

This was a terrifying number; the daily food and drink requirements were astronomical.

After Liu Bei met up with the others, he learned that Xun You had played a part in this.

"My lord, I just revealed that the Cao Army was mixing human flesh into the military rations, and I didn't expect the people to be so terrified."

After Xun You spoke, his expression turned grim.

"Cao Cao is lawless, and Cheng Yu is no good person either; to actually commit such heinous acts!"

"Digging up graves, eating human flesh, massacring the people!"

Xun You continued,

"My lord, Cao Cao is cruel, and the Yanzhou noble clans fear his retaliation, so many also intend to go to Bingzhou to avoid disaster."

Liu Bei nodded.

"Gentlemen, I have already had Gao Shun build a pontoon bridge at Maojin Ferry; we will go through Hulao, pass Luoyang, and head to Hedong."

"We must especially guard against Ding Yuan Shao's movements in the north."

"Understood!"

Dong'e City.

Cao Cao felt somewhat desolate.

"Zhi Cai, do you think I was wrong to kill Bian Rang's entire family?"

Xi Zhicai cupped his hands.

"My lord intended to kill the chicken to scare the monkey, but I didn't expect Bian Rang to have such influence among the Yanzhou noble clans."

Cao Cao shook off his spirits.

"No matter. Once I kill Lu Bu, these noble clans will have to submit to me!"

Xun Yu walked in hurriedly.

"My lord! Liu Bei has taken the 800,000 shi of grain obtained from Taking Xuzhou and is moving 1.6 million Yanzhou people to Bingzhou!"

Cao Cao nearly suffered a stroke.

"What?! Liu Bei has moved away 40% of my Yanzhou people?!"

"This is to empty my Yanzhou! Liu Bei, I will not share the same sky as you!"

Xun Yu's expression was somewhat poor.

"My lord, the people of Yanzhou are extremely short of grain, and seeing the Taking Xuzhou people massacred, plus knowing that human flesh was mixed into the military rations, everyone is terrified..."

He did not agree with Cao Cao's recent massacre tactics; Xun You had even written him a letter saying he had brought shame to the Xun family and was aiding the tyrant.

Xun Yu also felt distressed.

Cao Cao looked around.

"Am I really inferior to that Liu Bei? Are the people all going to leave me?"

Cheng Yu cupped his hands.
