After hearing this, Ma Chao sneered and said: "What the King of Wei said is not right, it seems that the king is holding the nose of the king of Wei, as long as the king goes, the dog of the king of Wei will follow him, let the king of Wei play the circle of the king, and even how the king entered the Wei country, I'm afraid the king of Wei still doesn't know, right?" ”

After hearing this, instead of getting angry, Cao Cao continued to laugh and said: "King Qin has such eloquence at a young age, which is already remarkable. However, these are all battles of words. I just want to ask King Qin, are you willing to join forces with me and attack Yan Kingdom together? ”

"Excuse me, King Wei, why should I join forces with you, and why should I attack the Yan Kingdom? You must know that Lin Nan, the king of Yan, has already lowered himself to the throne, which is something that the major anti-kings in the world do not have. ”

"It's just a joke. Let me ask King Qin, who was the first to be the first king in this world? And who provoked the relationship between the princes, causing the two major wars in the Central Plains, causing the people in the old capital to move elsewhere? Or who, he holds the jade seal of the country, but steals it for himself? I'm afraid that King Qin's heart knows better than me that this qiē is all given by Bai Linnan. In the final analysis, Lin Nan is the most disloyal courtier, and he should have been eliminated long ago. ”

After Ma Chao heard this, he didn't answer, but just fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, Cao Cao hurriedly added: "King Qin should know the news that Lin Nan crossed the Yellow River south with 100,000 people, right?" The king of Qin just told the world to see the Son of Heaven in the Guandu Dynasty, but he Lin Nan personally led an army of 100,000 to arrive, and all the troops were elite generals, which seemed to have a deep meaning. Based on my understanding of Lin Nan, he must have wanted to take the Son of Heaven away from the King of Qin, and then coerce the Son of Heaven to order the kings to take over the power of the world, and trample on the authority of the Han Dynasty under his own feet. Such people. In fact, it is the scourge of the Han Dynasty, and it has to be eliminated as much as possible. ”

Ma Chao said: "What are the benefits of this king joining forces with you?" ”

"Of course there are benefits, King Qin, just imagine, my Wei State has few soldiers, and the internal coordination is not very good. In the past two years, riots have occurred in Xuzhou, Qingzhou, and Yuzhou for many years, and it is not easy to quell this, and that one has risen again, which is really miserable. King Qin led more than 100,000 troops into the Central Plains, once he wiped out Lin Nan, who was trying to dominate the Central Plains, then the entire Jizhou would be King Qin's, so who in the world would dare not obey King Qin? When the time comes, when the Son of Heaven sees the great achievements of King Qin, he will definitely give it to King Qin. As long as King Qin ascends the throne of the Ninety-Five Supreme, it will be the honor of the minister and the honor of the world. ”

Ma Chao knew that Cao Cao's words were very inflammatory, but he did not answer this, but replied: "That's all for today, let King Ben go back and think about it." ”

"Well, but King Qin, don't think about it for too long, when the Yan army arrives at Guandu. It's hard to get rid of it. Cao Cao urged.

"Don't worry, tomorrow morning. Still in this place, this king will definitely give you a good answer. Ma Chao said.

As soon as the words fell, Ma Chao took Zhang Xiu, Wang Shuang, and Qian Hu to turn around and leave, and galloped away on horseback.

"King, let's go like this, don't we arrest Cao Cao?" Qian Hu hurriedly asked.

"I changed my mind. Instead of attacking the weak, it is better to bring down the strong, once I kill Lin Nan, who is dominant in Jizhou, then the entire Jizhou will become my territory, and Liangzhou, Guanzhong, and Jizhou will be connected. If you go south to compete for power, who in the world will dare to resist? Ma Chao said.

Zhang Xiu said: "King, Cao Cao and Lin Nan can't let go, but if you can surrender the army without a fight, it is the best policy." ”

"Oh, what do you have to build yì?" After hearing this, Ma Chao asked.

"The king can temporarily agree to Cao Cao's suggestion, pretend to join forces with Cao Cao, but secretly report this situation to Lin Nan, and then Lin Nan and Cao Cao will definitely break out into war, and the king can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. As the saying goes, if two tigers fight, one will be injured. No matter who wins or loses, the king finally comes to clean up the mess and will definitely be able to break the two of them in one fell swoop. Zhang Xiujian said.

"Good! This plan is good, if it really succeeds, I will promote your current general! ”

Zhang Xiu said happily: "Thank you for the king's favor." ”

"I'll leave this matter to you, and you will personally go to the Yan army camp."

"No!"

Here Ma Chao left, and Cao Cao also went back to the barracks with his relatives, he rode on horseback, with a smile on his face, and said slowly: "Horses, horses, after all, they are still too young." ”

After Cao Ren heard this, he laughed and said: "It can only be said that the king is too smart, in the opinion of the minister, Ma Chao will definitely agree to the king's mention tomorrow and join forces with the king to deal with Lin Nan." When the time comes, the country of Yan will be in danger! ”

"Zixiao, what you said is not right, it should be Ma Chaoxiu!" Cao Cao's eyes showed a hint of cunning, and he said with a smile.

After Cao Ren heard this, he asked suspiciously: "The king, the minister is getting more and more incomprehensible, we and Ma Chao have joined forces to deal with Lin Nan, the danger should be Lin Nan, why does the king say that Ma Chao is dangerous?" Could it be that the king is saying that Ma Chao's subordinates cannot defeat the Yan army? ”

Cao Cao shook his head and said: "The Art of War Cloud 'The real is false, and the virtual is real', as long as you know how to use this virtual and real words, you can surrender the soldiers without a fight." Do you really think I'm teaming up with Huimachao? ”

Cao Ren, Cao Chun, Cao Xiu, and Dian Wei looked at each other after hearing this, and they were all very puzzled.

Cao Cao glanced around at the four people behind him, and after seeing their expressions, he smiled and said, "If I were really so easy to be seen through, then I wouldn't be Cao Cao." I, Cao Cao, am unique in the world, no one can replace me, and the world will be played with by me......"

Suddenly, Cao Cao's face changed, his whole face became gloomy, his voice became stern, and he roared in a low voice: "Zixiao, you quickly send someone to let Xiahoudun lead the troops to increase the number of troops to cross, and our army will fight the enemy to the death here." ”

Cao Ren asked a little confused, "The enemy that the king is referring to is ......?"

"Anything outside of Wei is the enemy of my Great Wei." Cao Cao said resolutely.

Cao Ren seemed to understand something, and said: "The minister understands, and the minister will send someone to inform General Xiahou to increase the number of troops." ”

"Well, you can go back, Cao Chun and Cao Xiu will also go back, Dian Wei will come with me and go to the Yan army camp." Cao Cao reined in his horse and stopped on the side of the road.

"Go to the Yan army camp?" Cao Ren, Cao Chun, Cao Xiu, and Dian Wei all asked in surprise.

"Don't ask so much. We will be separated, Lin Nan and I have been separated for a long time, and we should see each other today, I am afraid that I will never see him again in the future. Cao Cao frowned and said slowly.

Cao Ren, Cao Chun, and Cao Xiu did not dare to disobey Cao Cao's will, and after separating from Cao Cao and Dian Wei. He quickly left and returned to the place where the Wei army was stationed, while Cao Cao took Dian Wei and drove towards the place where the Yan army was stationed.

…

In the Yan army camp, Lin Nan had just returned from inspecting the camp, and since he landed in Juan County, he ordered the army to advance forty miles every day, step by step, approaching Guandu step by step, and the five camps have always remained the same. The front and back echoed each other from afar, and put on a defensive posture.

As the sun set, the evening afterglow shone on the earth, and the distant horizon was covered with a layer of red glow, as if it was dyed red with blood.

Lin Nan was wearing light clothes, standing in front of the big tent, looking up at the blood-colored clouds, and saw the floating clouds floating in the sky. The clouds rolled up and said slowly: "The sky has changed, and there is a vision. Today, the sky is covered with red clouds, and the sky is like a bloody color, and perhaps in the near future, an unprecedented melee will break out......"

"Hahaha! I didn't expect His Royal Highness King Yan to observe the celestial phenomena, which really made the old man admire. At this time, a very familiar figure appeared beside Lin Nan. Said with a smile.

"Doctor Zhang?" Lin Nan turned his head and saw Zhang Zhongjing standing beside him, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, and hurriedly asked, "You...... How did you get here? ”

"Your Highness is really joking. The old man is naturally here, is it possible that he still flies from the sky? Zhang Zhongjing said with a smile.

"Doctor Zhang came from afar, it's really a long way to go, please sit inside!" Lin Nanji invited.

"No, I was just passing by here, but fortunately I accidentally met General Gan of the former army, and then I knew that His Highness was here, so I came to see His Highness to express my greetings."

"Now I'm not the king of Yan......"

"In my mind, King Yan is King Yan, and nothing else." Zhang Zhongjing said stubbornly.

"Thank you for the compliment. By the way, just now Doctor Zhang said that he was passing by here, and I don't know where the doctor is going? ”

"Naturally, I went to Yan Kingdom, and tension has begun near Guandu, although it is to see the Son of Heaven, in fact, I want to snatch the Son of Heaven and compete for hegemony in the Central Plains, the Central Plains has become a place of public criticism, and I will only be implicated if I stay here. I heard that Yan Kingdom is relatively stable, and there is a lack of famous doctors, and some diseases cannot be treated at all, so I want to go to Yan Kingdom to save lives and help the wounded. ”

"Very good, since Doctor Zhang has made a decision, I am very supportive. I sent someone to send Doctor Zhang across the river, and then ......"

"No need, I'm used to being alone, I'll leave today, and I don't need anyone to send it, I'll be at peace with what I encounter, and wherever I go."

Lin Nan and Zhang Zhongjing both exchanged a few words, and then Zhang Zhongjing was about to leave, Lin Nan invited Zhang Zhongjing to stay in every possible way, Zhang Zhongjing refused to live or die, and finally left the Yan army camp.

Zhang Zhongjing's appearance is a very small episode.

After Lin Nan saw Zhang Zhongjing leave, he was about to enter the barracks when he saw Gan Ning coming over with a member of the Qin army.

The general of the Qin army was none other than Zhang Xiu. After receiving Ma Chao's order, he originally planned to send someone to see Lin Nan, but then he hesitated, he wanted to see the famous Lin Nan with his own eyes.

Without waiting for Gan Ning and Lin Nan to react, Zhang Xiu took the lead and bowed to Lin Nan: "The last general will be Zhang Xiu, the general of Hengye under the account of King Qin, who has seen Yanhou. ”

"Zhang Xiu?" When Lin Nan heard this name, he carefully looked at Zhang Xiu, and saw that Zhang Xiu was about thirty years old, with a tough physique, and looked very strong, especially those hot eyes, which were unforgettable at a glance.

Zhang Xiu looked at Lin Nan's eyes and felt quite strange, but he was also a well-informed person, and he was already familiar with this kind of gaze as if he was looking at rare animals.

After Lin Nan looked at Zhang Xiu, he immediately regained his calmness, waved his hand at Gan Ning, and said, "There is nothing to do with you, you can step back." ”

Gan Ning nodded and turned to leave.

"Speak in the tent." Lin Nan turned around and walked straight into the big tent.

Zhang Xiu followed Lin Nan into the big tent, and after the guest of honor was seated, he arched his hand to Lin Nan and said, "Yanhou, I am specially sent by His Royal Highness the King of Qin to report to Yanhou......

"Ventilation news? What letter? ”

"Cao Cao, the king of Wei, took the initiative to show favor to the king of my family today, and said that he would join forces with the king of my family to deal with Yanhou. The king of my family is loyal. I like to help others the most. Therefore, the king of my family sent me to tell Yan Hou the news, so that Yan Hou could be mentally prepared, and convey it to Yan Hou that our Qin army would definitely not be involved in this matter. ”

"Oh? Then don't I want to thank you, King Qin? ”

"It's not necessary, Yan Hou was born in Longxi. How can you say that you are also from Liangzhou, and our King Qin is also from Liangzhou, speaking of which, we are all a family, this family does not speak two words, how can King Qin bear to see others bullying Yanhou. Zhang Xiu said.

"Hehe, that's a good point. So, what does King Qin want me to do? What should be the price for giving me a message? ”

Zhang Xiu hurriedly shook his hand and said, "Don't misunderstand Yanhou, our King of Qin has no such intention. It's just that I want Cao Cao's sinister intentions after Yanhou. Now that the information has arrived, it's time for me to go back and take my leave. ”

"The general has come from afar, if it is late today, it is better to rest here for the night before leaving, so that I can show my respect for the general!"

"No need, Zhang still has an order, so I won't bother much."

Lin Nan also did not force Zhang Xiu. For Zhang Xiu, Lin Nan doesn't seem to like it too much. After all, Zhang Xiu is not very famous in history, and the most brilliant thing is that he and his general Hu Che'er killed Dian Wei together. Therefore, he doesn't like Zhang Xiu very much, and he is like a cloud, so he doesn't need to force someone who doesn't have a heart for him.

So, Lin Nan sent Zhang Xiu away.

"Nothing to do. Either traitor or theft. After Lin Nanmu saw Zhang Xiu leave, he said slowly.

After entering the big tent, Lin Nan called Xun You over and explained to Xun You about Zhang Xiu's report.

"King, it seems that Ma Chao is courting the king. I want to take this opportunity to provoke the incident between our army and the Wei army, and then the Qin army will take advantage of the fishermen. ”

"Is there any other way for the military advisor to let Ma Chao and Cao Cao fight ......?"

"Report-" The pro-soldier interrupted Lin Nan's unfinished words.

Lin Nan hurriedly asked when he saw his own soldiers, "What's the matter?" ”

"Lord Qi, Cao Cao asks to see you!"

"Cao Cao? Will he come to me? Lin Nan was surprised with a hint of surprise, "Where is he now?" ”

The soldier replied: "There is a man named Dian Wei, who is currently outside the camp, saying that he wants the lord to go to a place to see Cao Cao." ”

After hearing this, Xun You's brows furrowed, and he hurriedly said: "Lord, Cao Cao came uninvited, and he came so suddenly, there must be fraud in it, and you can't go." ”

Lin Nan said with a smile: "Since Cao Cao dares to come, I will dare to go, even if there is fraud, there are my 100,000 troops around here, what is there to be afraid of." Strategist, you can go with me. ”

"Lord, subordinates are also willing to go with the lord!" At this time, Guo Jia walked in from outside the tent, heard the conversation inside, and immediately bowed.

"Okay, let's all go together."

As soon as the words fell, Lin Nan took Guo Jia and Xun You to the outside of the camp, and saw Dian Wei standing straight outside the camp, holding a horse in his hand, his burly body and cold face gave people a feeling of not being angry but mighty.

"After Zhang Xiu left, Dian Wei came, many things have also been affected by me, it seems that Dian Wei will not die at the hands of Zhang Xiu again." When Lin Nan saw Dian Wei, he thought secretly.

Dian Wei stood there, like a god, watching Lin Nan come out of the camp intently, and when he approached, he bowed very politely: "Dian Wei has seen His Royal Highness King Yan. ”

"I'm no longer the King of Yan, please don't call me King Yan anymore." Lin Nan walked to a position a few meters away from Dian Wei and stopped, and from Dian Wei's body, he felt a danger that could not be approached.

For Dian Wei, Lin Nan still likes it in his heart, just like he likes Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and he also likes Dian Wei and Xu Chu. It's a pity that these four fierce generals are not under his hands, if one day these four fierce generals come to his command, he believes that he will definitely control these four people very well, even a hundred times better than Cao Cao and Liu Bei.

"King Yan has always been King Yan, although King Yan has lowered his title, but in Dian Mou's heart, King Yan is still His Royal Highness. Your Royal Highness, Dian was ordered to come to invite His Highness, my king wants to meet with His Royal Highness, in private, just His Royal Highness and my king, I don't know if Your Highness is willing to go to the appointment? Dian Wei noticed that the Yan soldiers inside and outside the camp had a hatred in their eyes, and he stood there calmly. Unimpressed.

"Is it just me and King Wei?" Lin Nanhu asked suspiciously.

Dian Wei nodded and said, "This is what the king of my family means, but I don't know what His Highness means?" ”

"Humph! It's so light-hearted, if my lord goes alone, but you ambush heavy soldiers, won't you fall for your King of Wei? Xun You said worriedly.

Dian Wei twisted his face and glanced at Xun You. There was a stunning light in his eyes, the expression on his face floated slightly, and he said coldly: "Dian is willing to be a hostage here, if King Yan can't return safely, Dian is willing to obey your fate." ”

"How can your rotten life be compared to my father-in-law?" Xun You said aggressively.

When Dian Wei heard this, his face twitched, his expression was very stiff, and he didn't say a word. Reaching out and pulling out a pair of jet-black halberds made of iron from behind his back.

"Protect the lord!" Seeing this, Xun You and Guo Jia immediately pulled Lin Nan to the back, and shouted loudly at the same time.

With a hula, the Yan soldiers standing inside and outside the camp rushed up, Rulin's spear was aimed at Dian Wei, the bright blade was also pointed at Dian Wei, and the archers had already mounted their arrows, just waiting for an order.

Dian Wei glanced at the soldiers around him. He sneered, and then dropped one of the halberds on the ground. Holding another halberd in his hand, he swung it quickly, and actually used the halberd to hook his own arm, and the whole left arm was covered with blood, staining his entire arm red, and at the same time throwing the halberd to the ground. There were no other weapons on his body.

"Dian swore in blood that King Wei only wanted to meet with King Yan alone, and he didn't have any intention of harming King Yan." Dian Wei said coldly.

"Stand down!" Lin Nan pushed aside Xun You and Guo Jia who were blocking in front of him, and said loudly.

The soldiers gathered their weapons and took two steps back. But he did not leave.

Lin Nan walked straight to Dian Wei's side, glanced at his blood-stained arms, and said, "Cao Mengde has a general like you, which is a blessing for his life. I have realized your loyalty, and I believe in you. Sue me, where is Cao Cao now? ”

Dian Wei said: "King Yan can go to the high slope fifteen miles southeast by himself, and when he gets there, there will be a hint around him that can let King Yan find the location of my king." However, I advise His Royal Highness King Yan not to think about sending troops to find my king, as long as my king sees something wrong, he will immediately return to Guandu. ”

"I didn't expect Cao Mengde's mind to be so meticulous, since he didn't believe me, why would he send you here?" Lin Nan sneered, and threw himself to the ground with his admiration for Cao Cao's cunning.

"Nope! It is precisely because the king of my family believes in King Yan that he will send me here. Dian is waiting for King Yan here, and when King Yan returns, it is the day of Dian Mou's farewell. ”

"Well, that's good. General Dian Wei, you are a very good general, but don't forget jì, even if I go alone, as long as I want to kill Cao Mengde, with my martial arts, it will be easy. ”

After Dian Wei heard this, a strange loosening immediately appeared on Gu Bo's unsurprised face, and he looked at Lin Nan with a torch, but he didn't know what to do. For him, he had only heard of Lin Nan's outstanding martial arts, but he had not seen it with his own eyes, if Lin Nan really committed murder against Cao Cao, then Cao Cao would definitely be more than lucky.

Suddenly, the hesitation in Dian Wei's heart disappeared, and he secretly thought: "The king has always been smart and knows Lin Nan very well, if he is not sure, he will not do this......"

"What His Royal Highness King Yan wants to do, that's what His Royal Highness King Yan means, it has nothing to do with Dian Mou, there is only so much Dian can do, Dian Mou is only responsible for passing on the words, as for how His Royal Highness and the king of my family get along, that's your business." After Dian Wei finished thinking about it, he let go of his worries and said slowly.

Lin Nan smiled and said, "Very good." Come on, treat General Dian Wei's injuries and take care of his life. ”

Xun You saw that when Lin Nan said this, there was a strange look in his eyes, and at the same time he noticed that Lin Nan made a look at him, he immediately understood, nodded and replied softly: "No! ”

………

Lin Nan rode on the dark cloud and stepped on a snow horse, left the barracks alone, and headed towards the place Dian Wei said.

At this time, it was already twilight, and a layer of twilight was shrouded in heaven and earth, and Lin Nan walked farther and farther, and the sky became darker and darker.

There are no stars, no moon, just thick clouds floating high in the sky. It injects a bit of mystery into this extraordinary night.

Lin Nan soon came to the small hillside that Dian Wei said, looked around, and did not find anything unusual, let alone any hints.

Just as Lin Nan was looking for it, he suddenly saw a bright light coming down the hillside, and a bonfire was lit. Cao Cao, dressed in civilian clothes, sat on the edge of a campfire, with two jars of wine beside him, and a wild boar that had been skinned roasted on the shelf of the campfire.

"Brother Zinan, goodbye for two years, meet again today, come down for a drink." Cao Cao slowly stood up and beckoned to Lin Nan on the hillside.

After Lin Nan saw Cao Cao, he secretly thought, "Cao Mengde, this guy." There are a lot of tricks to trick up, obviously this is a place to date, but it's so mysterious. It seems that as soon as I appeared, he hid in the shadows and observed for a long time, and when he was sure that there was no danger, he dared to show up, which was really cunning. ”

"Drive!"

Lin Nan let out a loud shout. They rode down the hill to the edge of the campfire.

Turn over and dismount. Lin Nan shook the reins, patted the back of the dark cloud stepping snow horse, and said softly: "Go to the side and play." ”

The dark cloud stepping snow horse is extremely human, and when he heard Lin Nan's words, he jogged out and grazed in the nearby grass.

"I thought Brother Zinan wouldn't come." Cao Cao grabbed a jar of wine from the ground. Directly threw it at Lin Nan on the opposite side and said with a smile.

"Brother Meng De warmly invited, why wouldn't Zinan come?" Lin Nan caught the wine thrown by Cao Cao and laughed too.

"Zinan, sit down. There is no one within a radius of ten miles here, and it is the time for the two of us brothers to catch up. Cao Cao took the lead in sitting down.

Lin Nan was not polite, sat down, directly opened the wine jar in his arms, and immediately smelled a fragrance, and couldn't help but admire: "This wine is so fragrant......"

"Hehe, of course, this is Du Kang wine, mellow and fragrant, it is the best in the wine." Cao Cao said.

"Although Du Kang's wine is good, it is a pity that it cannot solve your worries."

"Who said that, I think this Du Kang wine can relieve worries. Recently I wrote a poem called "Tanka Xing", and there are two lines in it, which are written like this......"

"Be generous, and be unforgettable; How to solve the problem? Only Du Kang. Lin Nan didn't wait for Cao Cao to finish speaking, so he replied first, "Brother Mengde, am I right?" ”

"Brother Zinan is really a god, I just did this "Short Song Xing" not long ago, it is extremely difficult for outsiders to know, but Brother Zinan can recite the sentences in the poem, which is really incredible. Could it be that Brother Zinan has your fine work installed by my side? Cao Cao asked lightly with a pun.

"Hehe, of course there is, all the people around you are my meticulous work!"

"Hahaha! Brother Zinan is really joking, if that's the case, then wouldn't Brother Zinan be able to kill me at any time? Cao Cao said this, but he didn't think so in his heart, he was thinking, after he went back, he must thoroughly investigate this matter and check all the people around him one by one.

"Well, now I can easily take your life. But before I take your life, can you sue me why you want me to come here? ”

Cao Cao smiled: "Brother Zinan really asked knowingly. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Brother Zinan, everyone understands people, why pretend to be stupid?" Cao Cao took a sip of wine and said with a smile.

Lin Nan said: "Brother Meng De, please be blunt, I'm really a bit of a monk who can't figure it out." ”

Cao Cao put down the wine jar, sat cross-legged on the ground, and said slowly: "Brother Zinan, it should not be difficult to see that this time the Son of Heaven issued an edict to invite everyone in the world to gather in Guandu, saying that it was to discuss the construction of the old capital, but in a sense, this was Ma Chao's idea. Ma Teng and his son marched eastward with 130,000 soldiers from the Western Liang, with a majestic momentum, quite the meaning of the first emperor sweeping the seven kingdoms......"

Lin Nan saw that Cao Cao stopped, so he said: "Brother Meng De, don't swallow and spit out, with the friendship between you and me, what else can't you say?" ”

Cao Cao smiled, his face immediately became stern, and said: "Brother Zinan raised an army of 100,000 to cross the Yellow River south, and the soldiers he brought were all elite, and when it came to momentum, Brother Zinan was not inferior to the Xiliang soldiers. Let's understand that people don't say foolish things, doesn't Brother Zinan want to take advantage of this opportunity to snatch the Son of Heaven from the hands of Ma Teng and Ma Chao's father and son, and then coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes to take the power of the world? ”

"Hahaha...... Brother Meng De, I'm afraid this is what you really think, right? Lin Nan said with a smile.

Cao Cao was blunt and did not object at all. replied very honestly: "Yes, this is indeed my idea, but to be honest, Brother Zinan also thinks the same way, right?" ”

Lin Nan took a breath, but did not answer. The right is the default.

"Actually, if we think the same thing, why can't we act together? The Xiliang soldiers are menacing, and their combat effectiveness is far superior to my tiger and leopard cavalry, not to mention that the 130,000 cavalry is not something you and I can resist alone......"

"Brother Meng De wants to join forces with me to deal with the Xiliang soldiers?"

"That's exactly what I mean."

"Hehe, Brother Meng De, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd, first you went to talk to Ma Chao to join forces against me, and now you are telling me to join forces against Ma Chao. Don't you feel shameless when you are like this, stirring up the relationship between me and Ma Chao? ”

After listening to Lin Nan's words, Cao Cao already had an idea in his heart, thinking that Ma Chao had sent someone to inform Lin Nan, but his face did not change, but he was a little scoundrel, and said with a smile: "The shameless are fearless." Isn't Brother Zinan often shameless? ”

After Lin Nan heard this, he didn't say anything. and Cao Cao looked at each other and smiled, don't go against your heart.

"Come on! Don't say anything else, take a few sips first, and let's talk about the rest slowly! Cao Cao raised the wine jar and said.

Lin Nan and Cao Cao slammed the wine jar, and then took two sips. When the wine was down, he said slowly: "Brother Mengde, please speak up, I would like to hear your unique opinion. ”

"We are brothers, and there is another covenant between our two countries. If we join forces to repel Ma Chao and rob the Son of Heaven, as for the rest of the matter, we can negotiate together, you are the general, I am the commonplace, we will assist the Son of Heaven together, why bother to fight. However, Ma Chao is different, Xiliang soldiers are brave and ruthless, with developed limbs, simple minds, and admit death, they want to dominate the world in the name of the Son of Heaven, so for them, the two of us are the biggest obstacles. Just imagine, why did Ma Chao send someone to sue Brother Sù Xian that I had a conspiracy with him, just hoping that the two brothers would fight, so that he could reap the benefits of the fisherman. ”

"When two tigers fight, one will be injured. When we are almost done, Ma Chao will lead the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to clean up the mess, then, we will have no power to fight back, we can only be at its mercy, within two years, Ma Chao will definitely be able to unify the north and the Central Plains. Lin Nan continued Cao Cao's words and said.

"It is precisely because of this worry that I hope to join forces with the virtuous brother to jointly repel Ma Chao and snatch the Son of Heaven over, our brothers will assist the Son of Heaven together, the virtuous brother will be in charge of the army, and I will be in power, which will definitely make the world prosperous."

Lin Nan was skeptical of what Cao Cao said, and this mentality had already shown that he wanted to cooperate with him, which meant a bit of a republic. However, Lin Nan knew very well that Cao Cao was not such a person at all, a long, long time ago, he had tested Cao Cao with such words, and Cao Cao did not mean that at all. For him, Cao Cao is a hero, and if he is a hero, he can't believe it, not to mention that Cao Cao, a famous person, is treacherous and cunning in his heart, and he can't be trusted.

Cao Cao saw that Lin Nan was thinking for a long time and asked, "Brother Xian, what do you think?" ”

"I think I should kill you now, and then the Wei State will be leaderless, and I will lead a large army to attack you with lightning speed, and after annexing your Wei State, I will have a decisive battle with Ma Chao." Lin Nan said with a smile.

After Cao Cao heard this, he laughed out loud and said: "Yes, yes, this idea is very unique, and my heart is itching when I say it, and I want to kill you now." However, don't forget jì, even if one of us really dies, our subordinates are not so easy to conquer, whether you kill me or I kill you, in the end, we can only cheapen the Xiliang soldiers. If you kill me, my men will avenge me, and the power of hatred cannot be ignored, and it will definitely be a loss for both sides. If I kill you, the result will be the same. Don't forget it, Guandu is here, but the tripartite camp, not only me and you, but also Xiliang soldiers who can't be ignored. ”

"Looks like I can't kill you if I want to."

"Nope! You can still kill me, for example, after we repel the Xiliang soldiers, we can have a decisive battle......"

"Very well, this is your final opinion?"

"Of course not, I don't want to go to war with my brother, my brother's Tiefutu is already famous all over the world, invincible, I don't dare to go against my brother, in terms of equipment, in terms of combat power, I am a cut behind my brother."

"Hehe, Brother Meng De is really good at praising me. In this case, what capital does Brother Meng De have to join forces with me to deal with Ma Chao? ”

"Gambit! This is where the war is fought! Cao Cao stretched out a finger, pointed to his head, and said with a smile, "With the superiority of a virtuous brother leading troops to fight, coupled with my resourcefulness, I will definitely be able to defeat Ma Chao without much effort." ”

"You mean, I send troops, you send brains? Wouldn't I be at a loss? ”

"Nope! We sent troops together, my brother's resourcefulness is not inferior to mine, even Yuan Shao, who was invincible before, was defeated by my brother, how many people in the world are my brother's opponents? My brother takes the Yan army, I take the Wei army, let's fight against Ma Chao together, and attack Ma Chao back and forth, how about it? ”

"Well, then let's have a battle of Guandu, and we will go to Ma Chao's hometown in Xiliang in the first battle!"

"So that's it?" Cao Cao asked with a smile.

"Well, but we should be worried about someone, someone hiding in the shadows."

Cao Cao asked suspiciously, "Who?" ”

"The big-eared thief occupies the entire territory of Jingzhou, and it can be said that he has enough food and soldiers, if he comes in to stir up the situation, then it will bring many uncertain factors to the battle of Guandu. Therefore, we have to find a way to keep him in Jingzhou. ”

"It's better to borrow a knife to kill people,......" Cao Cao said.

"Listen up." Lam Nam Road.

"Sun Wentai has always wanted to occupy Jingzhou, when Liu Biao was alive, Sun Wentai had friction with Jingzhou many times, and now although Liu Biao is gone, Jingzhou has also changed owners, but for Sun Wentai, Jingzhou has always been his heart disease. Why don't we work together to repair a book, send someone to Dongwu, and ask Sun Wentai to send troops to attack Jingzhou and contain Liu Bei, so that Liu Bei will have no time to look north. ”

"Nope! Today's Dongwu is no longer something you and I can sway with a word, and the naval army of Dongwu has not been trained, so it will only be very difficult to deal with Liu Bei. The water war is not better than fighting on land, and Soochow is downstream, so it is extremely disadvantageous. ”

"What do you mean by that virtuous brother?"

"Bring Liu Bei in, let him lead the troops to Guandu, Brother Meng De will deal with Liu Bei, I will deal with Ma Chao, and come to an unprecedented battle of Guandu, so that this battle will leave the most glorious page in the history books from now on, this battle will completely cripple Ma Chao and Liu Bei!"

After hearing this, Cao Cao seemed to feel the incomparable ambition in Lin Nan's heart, nodding yes on the surface, but secretly thinking in his heart: "The most troublesome thing is you, but now I have to join forces with you, and God will make people." ”

"Okay, that's it, if Brother Xian needs anything, I will send a large army to support, Xiliang soldiers are not easy to deal with. However, in my opinion, you should unite with Liu Bei first and deal with Ma Chao together, in this case, the chances of winning are greater. As for dealing with Liu Bei, after Ma Chao is defeated, we will fight back together, which will inevitably catch Liu Bei off guard and reduce a lot of casualties. ”

"It's a deal!"

"Haha, Brother Xian, tonight we will drink wine and eat meat happily, ready for the battle of Guandu." Cao Cao laughed.

The two of them had made up their minds, and they ate and drank, and they didn't know when, but they were both a little drunk, and then they went their separate ways.

When Lin Nan returned to the barracks, it was already early in the morning, and he rode his horse and galloped along the way, and he had a lot of alcohol.

When he returned to the barracks, Xun You, Guo Jia, and Wen Chou all stood at the door and waited for a long time, and when everyone saw him coming back, they immediately greeted him.

"Lord, you're back, if you don't come back, your subordinates will definitely take someone to find the lord." Wen Chou said worriedly.

"It doesn't have to be this way, I'm safe. By the way, is Dian Wei's injuries bandaged? (To be continued......)
