Chapter 716: Unity
"Alas!"
Cao Cao sighed, but he didn't expect Yuan Chang to know what the purpose of the Shuntian Alliance was. If Yuan Chang knew the other party's purpose, there might be a solution to their purpose.
However, this aroused Cao Cao's fighting spirit.
Once, Cao Cao was hostile to the Shuntian League, but the specific situation of the Shuntian Alliance was not clear. Now, he knew the powerful power of the Shuntian Alliance, although he was a little frightened at first, but after experiencing the fear, his heart was more of a desire to fight with the other party. Moreover, he also knew that there was such a powerful 'teammate' as Yuan Chang, and in the face of the power of the Shuntian Alliance, it was not wrong for the two to say that they were teammates.
"By the way, Pastor Yanzhou invited me to talk before, I don't know why?"
Yuan Chang's voice woke Cao Cao up, his eyes turned to Yuan Chang, and he said with some hesitation: "I invited Youzhou Mu before, but it was because I wanted to unite with Youzhou Mu and seize Yuan Benchu's power. Now, however, I was a little hesitant to do so. ”
"Why?"
Yuan Chang was a little curious, but in such a short period of time, Cao Cao was about to change his intentions.
Cao Cao didn't intend to hide it, and said simply: "Don't hide it from Youzhou Mu, in fact, Yuan Benchu and I all know about the Shuntian Alliance, and I was also very determined to eliminate the Shuntian Alliance before. However, I don't know when he seems to have changed as a different person, and his attitude towards confrontation with the Shuntian Alliance is not as firm as it was at the beginning, but sometimes he is very firm, which makes me puzzled. Therefore, I thought about deciding with Ben Chu to belong to the world first, and then dealing with the Shuntian Alliance. Now, knowing from Youzhou Mukou that the other party is such a powerful force, it may be a good thing to have multiple teammates. If Youzhou Mu informed him about the Shuntian Alliance, he would have made up his mind to fight against the Shuntian Alliance. ”
After listening to Cao Cao's words, Yuan Chang was a little curious, Cao Cao said that Yuan Shao seemed to have changed as a person, and his words and deeds were very different, could it be that he was also crossed? However, it was not very like he had been crossed. Suddenly, Yuan Chang had a thought, Yuan Shao is a dual personality?
Thinking of this, Yuan Chang felt more and more that it was possible. In fact, from the analysis of two things, we can see the clues.
When Yuan Shao first got Jizhou, Yuan Shu appointed Sun Jian as the assassin of Yuzhou and stationed troops in Yangcheng. When Sun Jian sent troops to attack Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao took the opportunity to appoint Zhou Ang as the assassin of Yuzhou and sent troops to attack Yangcheng. Yuan Shu sent Gongsun Zhan's younger brother Gongsun Yue to assist Sun Jian in returning to Yangcheng, but Gongsun Yue was shot and killed by a stray arrow during the battle. At that time, Gongsun Zhan, who was suppressing the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou, said angrily: "My brother's death was caused by Yuan Shao. So he raised troops to attack Yuan Shao. Gongsun Zhan's offensive was fierce and shocked Hebei. For a time, Jizhou counties and counties have surrendered. Yuan Shao was shocked, in order to please Gongsun Chan and ease the situation, he promoted Gongsun Zhan's younger brother Gongsun Fan to Bohai Taishou, but as soon as Gongsun Fan arrived in Bohai, he immediately defected.
When Yuan Shao was not at the end of his rope, he was very weak, which was very inconsistent with his behavior from a family.
Subsequently, Yuan Shao personally led his troops to meet Gongsun Zhan, and the two armies clashed at the boundary bridge. Yuan Shao ordered the troops to pursue the enemy, and he advanced slowly, carrying only dozens of strong crossbows and more than 100 halberd guards. More than ten miles away from the boundary bridge, when he heard that he had won ahead, he dismounted and unsaddled and rested for a while. At this time, more than 2,000 cavalry from Gongsun Zhan's army suddenly appeared, surrounded Yuan Shao heavily, and arrows rained down. Don't drive Tian Feng to help Yuan Shao and ask him to retreat into a low wall, Yuan Shao slammed his helmet on the ground and said, "The eldest husband would rather rush forward and die in battle, hide behind the wall, can he live!" He commanded the strong crossbowmen to respond to the battle, killing and wounding many of Gongsun Zhan's cavalry, Gongsun Zhan's troops did not recognize Yuan Shao, and gradually retreated. After a while, Yi led troops to meet Yuan Shao, and Gongsun Zhan's cavalry withdrew.
In this case, Yuan Shao showed a posture that he would rather die standing than kneel and live, as if he had become another person, and in many things, Yuan Shao seemed to have such a change. Obviously, Yuan Shao's situation can only be explained by a dual personality. One personality is cowardly, the other personality is tough, if analyzed in this way, Yuan Shao's behavior can be explained.
Yuan Chang didn't explain to Cao Cao about Yuan Shao's dual personality, but chuckled lightly and said: "Brother Clan has such a character, it may not be beneficial to pull him to deal with the Shuntian Alliance, but it will be a bad thing, and I will not be soft on the power of Brother Clan." However, to put it mildly, why should the Yanzhou Pastor unite with me?"
Cao Cao's expression froze, and he didn't know how to answer.
Before he knew how powerful Yuan Chang was, Cao Cao naturally had the confidence to win over Yuan Chang to deal with Yuan Shao together. However, now that he knows that Yuan Chang is such a terrifying guy, it is not difficult for Yuan Chang to deal with Yuan Shao at all, where does he need to unite with Cao Cao? Thinking of this, Cao Cao was a little depressed, and letting him control the land of a state seemed to be useless in the face of a strong man like Yuan Chang. It's a pity that his Cao Cao's strength is average, and he is helpless in the face of Yuan Chang's weakness.
"Of course, it's not impossible to unite!"
At this time, Yuan Chang's conversation turned again, making Cao Cao's mood like a roller coaster, up and down. Seeing Cao Cao's gaze, Yuan Chang said: "Yanzhou Mu also knows that you don't have any advantage to unite with me, but you yourself are an advantage. Therefore, I hope to make an oath with you Yanzhou Mu, if the Shuntian Alliance is resolved in the future and the world is ruled by you, if I win, Yanzhou Mu will join my command and govern the world for me with the ideas I expect, and if I am defeated, I will return to the mountains and forests and no longer interfere in the affairs of the world, how about it?"
"This..."
Cao Cao seemed a little hesitant, he wanted to say something but didn't seem to know how to say it. Yuan Chang obviously understood Cao Cao's scruples, and said again: "Of course, the hegemony in the world depends on the military generals and soldiers, and I will not make a move." Of course, the premise of all this is to be able to solve the Shuntian Alliance, and it is done in the lifetime of you and me, so what does Youzhou Mu think?"
Xu Shao commented that Cao Cao is "a capable minister who governs the world and a traitor in troubled times", and Cao Cao's ability is beyond doubt. If Cao Cao is allowed to assist him, he can undoubtedly save a lot of trouble, and for Yuan Chang, Cao Cao is so attractive. As for the rest, Yuan Chang was not too interested. The reason why such an oath was made was because a hero like Cao Cao, once he failed, he would rather die than be his subordinate. Therefore, Yuan Changcai made an oath with him, which can be regarded as putting a shackle on Cao Cao. Of course, if Cao Cao is unwilling, he will not force it, at most he will use more thought and trouble himself.
"Since Youzhou Mu has said this, if you still don't agree, won't you be disappointed!
Cao Cao was still very courageous, and finally agreed to this oath.
"In this case, you and I are an alliance with high-fives, if you violate this oath, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed!"
"Smack!"
Since then, the bigwigs of the two states have preliminarily reached an alliance agreement, and the first person they unite to deal with is naturally Yuan Shao, who is the most powerful today. As a big man sitting in the land of Sanzhou, I am afraid that I don't know that there are still people who dare to touch his tiger whiskers. Of course, a tyrant and a rebel against the sky, I am afraid that he did not take the big man with the power of the three states in his eyes.
Now that it has been united, Yuan Shao's three states and two people will share the spoils, which is obviously a bit difficult to divide. However, after thinking for a while, Yuan Chang said: "Yanzhou Mu, the clan brother has Jizhou, Bingzhou and Qingzhou, I will lead the army to attack Jizhou, and you will send troops to Qingzhou, and then send troops to Jizhou." Whoever is the first to take the city of Jizhou, who is the lord of Jizhou, is the lord?"
"It's best to be so natural!"
Of course, Cao Cao would not object, and after hesitating for a moment, Cao Cao asked: "Dare to ask Youzhou Mu, if anyone takes the lead in capturing the territory he is responsible for, why not wait for the other party to take it before waving troops to Jizhou?"
"That's not the case, whoever can complete their task first can directly send troops to Jizhou without waiting for the other side. ”
When Cao Cao heard this, he smiled lightly, with a confident smile on his face, and said: "In this way, then so-and-so is not welcome, Jizhou must be in the bag of so-and-so." ”
"Yanzhou Mu is confident!"
Yuan Chang's expression remained unchanged, noncommittal to Cao Cao's confidence. Of course, as an outstanding military strategist and politician, it is natural for Cao Cao to have such self-confidence.
"Now the forces of the Shuntian League have been eradicated by me in Yanzhou, Jizhou, Bingzhou and Yuzhou, and in addition, Xuzhou has also been destroyed before. Therefore, I will inform you of the location of the Shuntian Alliance's forces, and you can send someone to watch carefully. Moreover, once you and I jointly attack the clan brothers, it may be unfavorable to you that the Shuntian Alliance will be unfavorable, so you should be careful in this regard. ”
Out of the alliance, Yuan Chang had to be reminded.
"Don't worry!"
Cao Cao was extremely confident at this time, and said sharply: "As long as the Shuntian Alliance does not send a large force of men and horses to deal with so-and-so, so-and-so will let them have no return." ”
Cao Cao didn't know the strength of the Shuntian Alliance before, but now that he knew, how could he not be guarded. Moreover, Cao Cao also knew that the Shuntian League was taking Yuan Chang as a thorn in his side, and he would definitely not use too powerful characters to deal with him. Even like this, the person who wanted to steal the beam and replace Lu Bu before was only the strength of the sixth sense. If the Shuntian Alliance wants to deal with Cao Cao, it will be almost the same. And when Cao Cao is on guard, it is unknown whether the other party can succeed.
"Well, after listening to it for so long, it's time for you to show up!"
Yuan Chang whispered, and then, under Cao Cao's surprised gaze, he suddenly lost his figure in front of him. In another blink of an eye, Yuan Chang appeared again, but at this time, Yuan Chang was carrying a figure in his hand, looking at the official uniform on his body, it seemed that he was also a minister of the court.
"Who are you, and why are you eavesdropping on my conversation with Yanzhou Mu?"
Yuan Chang's expression was relaxed, but his gaze shot at the other party as if it were substance. I'm afraid that if you don't answer well, you will be in a different place the next moment.
In fact, as early as when the other party appeared, Yuan Chang had already found out, but he didn't bother to pay attention to it. Later, when Yuan Chang and Cao Cao talked about the Shuntian Alliance and the Anti-Heavens, Yuan Chang noticed that the other party's emotions seemed to fluctuate, so he became interested. After talking to Cao Cao, he went to find out the other party.
"Shi Wangxun, the head of this lawsuit, has seen Youzhou Mu and Yanzhou Mu!"
Although Wang Xun was pulled out by Yuan Chang, there was not the slightest fear on his face, but he looked at Yuan Chang and Cao Cao with curiosity. Of course, most of his attention was focused on Yuan Chang, as if there was something special about Yuan Chang that attracted him to make him so.
"Situ Changshi, are you Situ Zhao Wen's person? Did you give Situ Zhao Wen the order to monitor me and Youzhou Mu?"
Cao Cao's eyes flashed with a fierce light, as if he wanted to kill Wang Xun. As a hero, Cao Cao doesn't mind killing, and there is not a small amount of blood on his hands.
"The Yanzhou pastor misunderstood, the official was in a hurry to go to the toilet before, and he had no intention of passing by here, not intentionally eavesdropping, and asked the two state pastors to understand. ”
"Phew!"
Yuan Chang sneered, and said lazily: "Aren't you a fool when the two of us are stupid?" Since the two of us talked, you appeared, but I don't bother to bother with you. If you don't tell the truth again, I naturally won't do anything to you, but looking at Yanzhou Mu's fierce and vicious appearance, I'm afraid it's not impossible to swallow you alive. ”
"This..."
Wang Xun was a little surprised, as if he didn't expect Yuan Chang to find out about him a long time ago. However, there was still no fear on his face, but his gaze at Cao Cao was full of disdain, and he didn't seem to take Cao Cao in his eyes at all.
"Huh!"
Cao Cao laughed angrily, he didn't expect the other party to despise him so much, pulled out the long sword at his waist, and said angrily: "Boy, don't you think that Benzhou Mu's sword is unfavorable?"
"Whew!"
Cao Cao's voice fell, only to feel a gust of wind in front of him, and then, he saw that his long sword had fallen into Wang Xun's hands, such a strange change, but Cao Cao was stunned.
"The sword is a good sword, but the owner of the sword is not good!"
Wang Xun touched the sword god and commented matter-of-factly, hearing his words, Cao Cao's face turned blue and white for a while. However, he had already seen that Wang Xun's strength was unusual, and he was afraid that he would not be able to help the other party.
"Wang Xun, you should know that if I make a move, there is no possibility that you want to hurt Yanzhou Mu's hair. ”
Yuan Chang's expression didn't change much, and he said flatly. Although Wang Xun has some strength and has reached the level of the sixth sense, in front of Yuan Chang, he still can't set off the slightest wave.
"This, the official naturally knows. ”
Facing Yuan Chang, Wang Xun was not as comfortable as when facing Cao Cao, the expression on his face was extremely complicated, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
"Youzhou Mu, as a powerful rebel, is a thorn in the side of the Shuntian Alliance, and how dare this official get an axe. ”
Wang Xun's calm words surprised Cao Cao again, he didn't expect that a random Situ Changshi would also know about the Shuntian Alliance and the Rebels, which made Cao Cao's heart churn, what happened to this world. Of course, Yuan Chang's expression did not change, he just kept it because Wang Xun seemed to have some things about the Shuntian Alliance and the Anti-Heaven Alliance, otherwise, it would have been solved a long time ago.
"Say, tell what you know, and maybe save your life. ”
