"What General Zhang said is true. Now the city gate cannot be separated from General Zhang."

"In that case, I would like to go to my lord's place."

Cao Bao thought for a while, then clasped his fists at Zhang Liao and said.

When Zhang Liao heard this, a smile appeared on his face: "That's very good, then I'll trouble General Cao."

When Cao Bao heard Zhang Liao's words, he didn't say much. He turned around and walked down the city wall, mounted his horse and came to Lu Bu's mansion.

Since Cao Bao's daughter was Lu Bu's concubine, the servants in Lu Bu's house did not stop him, and Cao Bao arrived at the backyard very smoothly.

When he first stepped into the backyard, he saw the mess all over the ground, and many of the furnishings were pushed to the ground by Lu Bu.

The real master he was looking for, Lu Bu, was lying on the ground with his back stretched out. There were several empty wine jars beside him.

Cao Bao came closer and smelled it, and a strong smell of alcohol emanated from Lu Bu's body.

He came to Lu Bu's side and pushed Lu Bu gently, but Lu Bu didn't react at all.

When Cao Bao saw that pushing was of no use, he stretched out his hand and patted Lu Bu hard on the face.

But in exchange, Lu Bu just turned over and even snored.

When Cao Bao saw this, he felt that Lu Bu was indeed drunk, so he immediately stood up and shouted towards the door: "Everyone is dead?"

"My lord is drunk and lying on the ground. You don't know how to help me to the bed?"

Cao Bao roared twice, and then a servant rushed over from the backyard.

Two strong soldiers supported Lu Bu and walked towards the bedroom.

Cao Bao grabbed the housekeeper and asked directly: "Uncle Lu, you are an old man who has been following my lord for many years. Why are you so ignorant?"

"It's such a cold day, why don't you let me sleep on the floor? Can you still do it? If you can't do it, get out of here as soon as possible!"

"General, this is a small injustice!"

"Last night, when I saw my lord drunk, I wanted to help him back to the bedroom, but my lord didn't want to, and he even beat me."

"If it weren't for the fact that the lord has served me for so many years, I probably wouldn't even be able to see the general."

As he said this, the housekeeper of Lu Bu's house looked pitiful.

Hearing what the butler said, Cao Bao rolled his eyes and asked, "How much wine did your lord drink until last night?"

"General, my lord drank a lot. If you count, I drank at least five jars of aged wine."

Cao Bao was also shocked when he heard that Lu Bu drank five jars of wine.

According to a jar weighing five kilograms, that means Lu Bu drank twenty-five kilograms of aged wine in one night. It's no wonder that he couldn't wake Lu Bu up.

However, isn't this result exactly what Cao Bao wants?

After hearing this, Cao Bao was convinced that Lu Bu was drunk to death and would not be able to wake up in a short time.

After understanding everything, Cao Cao didn't want to waste any more time, so he said to the butler: "Go and make some sobering tea for your lord to drink!"

"The enemy troops have already arrived outside the city. At this time, the lord is needed to guard the army. How can we keep the lord drunk?"

"Yes, yes, little one, let's go right away." The housekeeper nodded quickly.

"You go and take care of my lord first. I will help General Zhang defend the city!"

After Cao Bao finished speaking, he immediately walked out of the house.

Cao Bao walked in such a hurry that he didn't even notice that when he just walked out, the housekeeper behind him showed a sneer.

Then, the housekeeper walked towards Lu Bu's bedroom.

Leaving aside what the steward was doing to find Lu Bu, let's just say that after Cao Bao left Lu Bu's mansion, he did not go directly to the city wall to help Zhang Liao defend the city.

Instead, he went directly to the military camp in the city and summoned his own captains.

Soon, all the captains arrived. Cao Bao glanced at everyone present, and then said slowly: "Everyone, our opportunity has come!"

"Ah? General, what opportunity is there?"

When the captain heard what Cao Bao said, he was immediately confused.

"Now outside the city, the armies of Duke Xuande and Duke Yuan have arrived and are besieging the city!"

"And at this time, Lu Bu is still drunk. I just came out of Lu Bu's house. I have confirmed that Lu Bu is so drunk that he is going to fall into a puddle of mud and can't even stand up!"

"This means that now in the city, there is no commander-in-chief Lu Bu, and everyone is fighting on their own! This is a good opportunity for you and me!"

"But general, didn't we say that we should wait until Lu Bu fights with Xuande Gong and others before opening the city gate?" A captain asked with some confusion.

"Stupid! The force of war is unpredictable, and the shape of water is unpredictable! If you only know how to plan and do everything, but don't know how to adapt, how can you accomplish anything?"

"The plan we made before was all to avoid fighting Lu Bu directly."

"Lü Bu is in a drunken state at this time. Even if he discovers what we have done, he has no ability to stop it. In this case, why do we have to wait?" Cao Bao looked at the captain who spoke, and the squatting master lectured him.

"Yes, yes, the general is right! We have done so much, aren't we just worried that Lu Bu will be too brave and our plan will fail?"

"But now, Lu Bu can't even stand firm, so what are we afraid of? We can directly raise troops to capture the city gate and let Duke Xuande's army enter the city."

A school captain looked at the person who spoke first and immediately agreed with Cao Bao's words.

After hearing this, other captains also felt that what Cao Bao said made sense.

Cao Bao looked at the captain who took the lead in agreeing with him and nodded with satisfaction. He felt that this man had a sharp eye.

Finally, Cao Bao looked at the noisy crowd, pressed his hands, and said forcefully: "Everyone, this is not a moment to lose. Don't let such a good opportunity pass by."

"A certain general ordered that you all go back and gather your soldiers. After burning incense, they gathered outside the camp and followed him to attack the west gate."

"Remember, our attack this time is not intended to kill the enemy. As long as we can open the city gate, it will be a great achievement!"

"When Xiapi is captured and Duke Xuande takes control of Xiapi, I will take credit for you all!" Cao Bao looked at everyone and said in a deep voice.

"Here!" When the captains present heard Cao Bao's words, they immediately bowed to Cao Bao and saluted. Then they exited the main tent and began to gather their soldiers.

I don't know if the city is really in crisis. Anyway, during this time of burning incense, Cao Bao was in full swing, but no one came to ask.

The same thing happened when Cao Bao gathered his forces and headed towards the west gate.

Under the arrangements of all parties, Cao Bao arrived at the West City Gate very smoothly.

He looked at the large banner with the word "Wei" hanging on the city top, and he knew that the man guarding the west city gate was Lu Bu's brother-in-law Wei Xu.

Seeing that it was Wei Xu, Cao Bao was relieved.

In Cao Bao's view, Wei Xu is a waste. He only became one of Lu Bu's eight generals because of his relationship with Lu Bu.

He felt that he was far superior to Wei Xu in both martial arts and strategy.

At the same time, Wei Xu relied on his relationship as Lu Bu's in-laws and did not take himself, Lu Bu's father-in-law, seriously at all.

In the past, I was always against myself.
