In order to test Liu Bei, Cao Cao asked Liu Bei when he was drinking and eating, who can be called a hero in the world today. Liu Bei even scoffed at Cao Cao and said several people. Finally, Cao Cao said: The only heroes in the world are you and me! The only heroes in the world today are the monarch and Cao! ) Liu Beiwen was surprised, thinking that Cao Cao saw his intention to do great things and scared the chopsticks to the ground. Cao Cao asked him why he was so scared, and Liu Bei said it was because of the thunder outside. Cao Cao laughed and said, gentlemen are also afraid of thunder? Liu Bei replied that Confucius was afraid of saints, let alone me.

Sanrang Xuzhou

Cao Cao sent troops to attack Xuzhou in the name of revenge for his father. Tao Qian turned to Kong Rong and Tian Jie for help. At the request of Kong Rong, Liu Bei led Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and thousands of troops to Xuzhou. Liu Bei and Cao Jun won several victories. Tao Qian offered to give Xuzhou to Liu Bei three times, but Liu Bei refused twice. Tao Qian was seriously ill for the third time. On his deathbed, he asked Liu Bei to be ordered to shepherd Xuzhou again, but Liu Bei still refused. Subsequently, Xuzhou military and civilians strongly expressed their support for Liu Bei to take charge of state power, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei also advised him many times. At this point, Liu Bei agreed to accept the power of Xuzhou and serve as a shepherd in Xuzhou.

Baidicheng Tuogu

Guan Yu was captured after the defeat, and he was killed if he didn't surrender. When Liu Bei heard about it, he went all out to crusade against Wu and avenge Guan Yu. Zhuge Liang did not go out with Liu Bei at that time, but stayed in Chengdu to guard against Wei Jun's imaginary attack on Chengdu. However, Liu Bei was allied by Wu Zhihuo. After the defeat, he retreated to Baidicheng and could not afford to get sick. When Zhuge Liang came, Liu Bei said to Zhuge Liang, "If you think A Dou is the material to be an emperor, you can help him. If he is not the emperor's material, you can depose him and be the emperor yourself. " Hearing this, Zhuge Liang immediately knelt down and said, I will wholeheartedly help Liu Chan, and I will never dare to be emperor myself. I will do my best until I die.
