Chapter 91

He himself led Zhang Fei and Zhang Zhang Liao to escort the commoners toward Maojin Ferry!

Liu Bei rode his horse to Miss Diao Chan’s carriage,

“Wife, wife.”

The maid covered her mouth and giggled.

Miss Diao Chan blushed and lifted the carriage curtain, saying in a low voice, “Inspector Liu, who are you calling...”

Liu Bei laughed,

“Whoever responds is naturally who I am calling.”

Miss Diao Chan pouted,

“The commoners are watching; you should go do your serious business.”

Liu Bei shook his head,

“I am doing very serious business.”

Miss Diao Chan couldn’t help but laugh; she laughed with vitality and spring.

Liu Bei felt that this snowy day didn’t seem so cold anymore.

The livestream was naturally sour again!.

At the Suanzao camp,

the snow outside was already quite thick, and the warlords didn’t want to move even more.

Drinking a little wine and bragging—what a good life!

“Report~!”

A dusty scout rushed into the camp tent.

Ding Yuan Shao asked lazily,

“What is it?”

“Reporting to the Alliance Leader, Bingzhou Inspector Liu Bei killed Dong Zhuo’s subordinate Li Meng in Emperor Hongnong Commandery, routed ten thousand Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and rescued thirty thousand Luoyang commoners!”

Ding Yuan Shao slowly put down the wine cup in his hand; the wine was no longer fragrant.

He was sour to death inside, but on the surface, he was still very positive,

“Good, Liu Xuande is loyal and righteous; rescuing so many commoners is a great achievement!”

Ding Yuan Shu mocked,

“Liu Bei is foolish; thirty thousand people—where will they live? What will they eat? Can he afford to support them?!”

Many warlords couldn’t help but agree; indeed, with so many people, just eating could make a commandery poor.

Their Allied army now only had two hundred thousand people, and the grain consumed every day was astonishing!

“And he has to provide housing; his Hedong and Taiyuan aren’t rich either—can they fit?”

“He doesn’t manage grain and fodder; Liu Bei doesn’t understand at all! He thinks managing grain and fodder is easy!”

Grain officer Ding Yuan Shu took advantage of Liu Bei not being here to spout nonsense!

A few warlords nodded; Ding Yuan Shu’s statement wasn’t bad!

Wang Kuang interjected,

“Liu Bei’s Bingzhou only has a total population of over six hundred thousand; Hedong Commandery has a population of 570,000—what does Liu Bei have to support these thirty thousand people?”

Tao Tao Qian, Kong Zhou, and others all shook their heads; it was really too little.

Hedong Commandery is so important; Dong Zhuo naturally views Liu Bei as a thorn in his side!

Nanyang Commandery, occupied by Ding Yuan Shu, has a population of 2.4 million,

and Runan Commandery also has 2.1 million; one commandery is several times the population of the entire Bingzhou!

Bohai Commandery, controlled by Ding Yuan Shao, also has a population of 1.15 million.

Cao Cao’s Dongjun has a population of 600,000.

In general, Liu Bei seems to control a large territory, but in reality, he doesn’t control many people; only Hedong Commandery is barely passable.

Fortunately, Liu Bei captured over a hundred thousand Hu Ren to mine and build roads.

Although the warlords said this, they were actually sour.

They were all sighing that Cao Mengde didn’t fit in, and Liu Bei didn’t fit in either.

Wouldn’t it be great if everyone drank wine and bragged together? Why did they have to compete!

The barrage in various countries’ livestreams also increased,

“I’m laughing to death; the warlords can’t even drink their wine!”

“The Big-Eared Thief has dragged everyone into the competition!”

“If the Big-Eared Thief continues like this, he will sooner or later be kicked out of the warlord group chat!”

“Can’t they just drink wine properly!”

“Listening to these warlords, I feel the Big-Eared Thief is just so-so; the territory he controls is really not great, he just has many horses!”

Ding Yuan Shu continued to be sour,

“Liu Bei hasn’t encountered Dong Zhuo’s main force; Dong Zhuo’s Flying Bear Army is very elite. If he leaves the main force, he will be destroyed sooner or later!”

Ding Yuan Shao also said,

“Liu Xuande is impulsive; he only has ten thousand troops, and the commoners walk slowly—he will sooner or later be caught up by the Xiliang soldiers!”

Ding Yuan Shao had already begun to prepare a speech, waiting for Liu Bei to return as miserably as Cao Cao, so he could soothe him and express his own magnanimity!

Not long after,

“Report~!”

The scout came in again.

Ding Yuan Shu said hurriedly,

“Is Liu Bei defeated? I knew it!”

The scout was a bit embarrassed; whether to say it or not, in the end, professional ethics made him say it,

“Reporting to the Alliance Leader, Liu Bei defeated the Allied army of over twenty thousand led by Lu Bu and Niu Fu in Emperor Hongnong Commandery and rescued over thirty thousand Luoyang commoners.”

“Lu Bu was personally defeated by Liu Bei; several thousand soldiers under Lu Bu mutinied, and Li Jue’s Flying Bear Army was also beaten into a routed army by Liu Bei!”

All the warlords gasped; this Liu Bei was truly too capable of fighting!

From then on, the warlords present had the impression of Liu Bei as someone who was super capable of fighting.

Not only was he capable of fighting personally, but his soldiers were also capable of fighting!

“If we need help in the future, it seems we can find Liu Bei!”

Tao Tao Qian’s eyes lit up.

Kong Rong was also secretly happy; fortunately, he had established a good relationship with Liu Bei earlier!

Ding Yuan Shu only felt his face had been slapped red!

His heart was twisted,

“How could this weaver of mats and seller of straw sandals, Liu Bei, have such good luck!”

Ding Yuan Shao’s red-eye disease also flared up, and he was very dissatisfied with Liu Bei!

The wine and food on the warlords’ tables were no longer fragrant at all!

This is truly damn competitive!

The scout gave them another piece of gossip,

“Something about Liu Bei and Lu Bu fighting over Wang Yun’s adopted daughter Miss Diao Chan.”

“She is beautiful? Liu Bei ultimately succeeded? Wang Yun left cursing and swearing?”

“Brother Liu Xuande is still young, but liking beauties is also a matter of course!”

Dong Zhuo, who had crossed Tong Pass, was furious!

“What? Liu Bei hijacked seventy thousand of our Luoyang commoners?”

“This Big-Eared Thief is shameless; we were going to let these commoners live a good life in Chang’an! Why is he causing trouble!”

“What, he also snatched our wealth!”

“We only have three thousand Flying Bear soldiers in total, and you lost half of them for me? Trash!”

Dong Zhuo was furious!

Liu Xie, who was on the side, was laughing his stomach out, secretly thinking,
