Chapter 602: The Rising Ground Will Fall

"It's a good one to turn the tide and help the building to fall!"

Cao Cao carefully recited the words that Liu Zheng said, savoring the meaning.

Of course, this sentence is not original to Liu Zheng, he just vaguely remembers that he has read such an article, and there is such a sentence in it, which is more suitable for the current scene, and he came as soon as he opened his mouth.

"It's a pity, it's a pity, after all, you don't have the right name and you can't speak well, doing so is a rebellion."

"What is a rebellion, only the court can encircle and suppress me, but I can't kill the soldiers and horses of the court? I just want to remove the dark clouds of dark feudal rule and usher in a bright new life in the land of China. ”

"The decaying Han dynasty, the life span is over, it's time to be reborn, two hundred years ago, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu could renew the life of the Han Dynasty for more than two hundred years, and I Liu Zheng can do the same!"

After Cao Cao listened, he smiled faintly.

"Although you have achieved an advantage on the battlefield in Qingzhou, the imperial court is not so easy to deal with, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the imperial court still has more than 200,000 soldiers and horses, occupying several states, how can you do it with a single word."

"Brother Meng De, now that Jiaozhou, Yangzhou, most of Jingzhou, and even Qingzhou and Xuzhou are all in my hands, sitting on most of the world, do you think the imperial court still has the ability to fight with me?"

"Xuzhou? When did Xuzhou become yours? ”

Cao Cao was stunned.

Seeing Cao Cao's surprised appearance, Liu Zheng looked a little proud, and he didn't hide it, and immediately explained to Cao Cao.

"Before I came to Qingzhou, I had already asked my general Tai Shici to attack Xuzhou from Wu County to the north, Tao Qian took away most of the soldiers and horses in Xuzhou, and I couldn't stop my generals at all.

Although Xuzhou has not yet arrived, Liu Zheng has already determined that Xuzhou is his.

When the time comes, there will be thirteen states in the world, and Liu will compete for the land of five states. Yanzhou and Yuzhou can also be captured at any time.

Half of the territory is controlled by Liu Zheng, and winning the world is not just around the corner.

"I didn't expect you to kill three birds with one stone this time! It's amazing, it's worthy of Liu Zheng, admire. ”

"Hahaha, I dare to take someone to help Qingzhou, but I also took a big risk, natural risks and benefits coexist."

Although Cao Cao was surprised by Liu Zheng's words, Cao Cao did not seem to have the intention of surrendering.

Liu Zheng knew that it was not so easy to persuade Cao Cao to surrender, and he did not intend to persuade Cao Cao with his mouth.

After Cao Cao had eaten and drunk a full meal, he didn't mention anything about surrendering, but just chatted with Liu Zheng for a few words and talked about the general trend of the world.

Liu Zheng was also interested and did not ask Cao Cao if he surrendered.

Instead, he stayed in this courtyard for a while, and then took the initiative to leave.

There was no progress in the first chat with Cao Cao, but Liu Zheng also knew that Cao Cao didn't hate himself, as long as he didn't hate it, then Liu Zheng always had a way to slowly consume it with Cao Cao.

Sometimes recruiting the enemy is like falling in love with a girl, you have to be cheeky, meet him more, and pursue it with a dead face to achieve your goal.

Even if you don't succeed, you can know if you have hope.

It's like Liu Bei went to ask Zhuge Liang to visit the thatched house.

It's also thick enough.

Leaving Cao Cao, Liu Zheng went to the barracks and appeased Cao Cao, and Liu Zheng wanted to see Zang Ba.

Zang Ba was in high spirits this time, after he took refuge in Liu Zheng, he didn't expect the first battle, so he directly killed his enemy Tao Qian.

made Zang Ba let out a vicious breath.

Liu Zheng also needs to rely on Zang Ba and Zang Ba These bandits, so he must appease the emotions of Zang Ba and these people, and at the same time, this big battle is fought well, and the reward should not be less.

Let Zhang Ning take out some stored grain, and take out the military rations that he has already obtained from Cao Cao to reward the three armies, but he needs to eat and drink well on the first day.

However, the main reason why Liu Zheng came to find Zang Ba was to ask Zang Ba to pursue Liu Bei's men on the second day.

Although Liu Bei fled to Linzi City with the remnants of his soldiers and horses, Liu Bei was always a threat.

It is impossible for Liu Zheng to let Liu Bei continue to grow in Qingzhou, he wants to drive Liu Bei out of Qingzhou, which makes Liu Zheng feel at ease.

Otherwise, as soon as Liu Zheng leaves Qingzhou, with Liu Bei's ability, he will still slowly suppress these people who stay in Qingzhou.

And now the imperial court has focused more and more on Liu Zheng's body, Liu Zheng needs to declare war with the imperial court, it is only a matter of time, in order to make his hole cards more, Liu Zheng can only continue to expand his influence.

Zang Ba, who had just joined Liu Zheng's command, naturally wanted to show something, and he didn't hesitate at all about what Liu Zheng said about chasing Liu Bei, and directly agreed.

With Zang Ba going to pursue Liu Bei first, Liu Zheng was temporarily relieved, and instructed Zang Ba to tell him that he didn't need him to eliminate Liu Bei, he only needed to follow Liu Bei, and Liu Bei would be harassed from the rear.

Pay close attention to Liu Bei's dynamics, wait for Liu Zheng's army to come, and then have a decisive battle with Liu Bei.

This is mainly because Liu Zheng wants to let his men and horses temporarily recuperate in Beihai for two days, firstly, the loss of soldiers and horses is too great, and they need to recuperate well, and secondly, Liu Zheng's side needs to gradually bring back the cities that were taken away by the official army one by one.

Only by taking back the surrounding cities will the rule of the official army in Qingzhou be eliminated, otherwise it will only drive Liu Bei away, and if these towns are still under the jurisdiction of the official army, it will still be useless.

If you take back the town as soon as possible, the jurisdiction of Qingzhou will be able to be controlled by Liu Zheng.

Of course, the reason why Liu Zheng wanted Zang Ba to contain Liu Bei was mainly because Liu Zheng wanted to attack Xuzhou in the south at this time.

Tao Qian was defeated, and Liu Zheng wanted to capture Xuzhou in an instant, and the sooner the better.

Otherwise, when the news of Tao Qian's defeat spreads back to Xuzhou, when the counties and counties in Xuzhou are prepared, Liu Zheng will attack again, but it will be a little more difficult, especially in case the imperial court sends a new assassin to the past.

Then Liu Zheng will have to use a lot of means to completely defeat Xuzhou.

And taking advantage of the death of Xuzhou's assassin Shi Taoqian, and Xuzhou lacked troops, Liu Zheng went south, occupied Xuzhou, and joined Tai Shici's men and horses.

The day after the battle outside Beihai City ended, Zang Ba led people to Linzi City to pursue Liu Bei.

Liu Zheng didn't rest here, he gathered his own people, took the remnants of Wen Ping and Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai, and went directly south to Xuzhou.

Zhang Ning originally wanted to follow Liu Zheng, but Liu Zheng said that he would come back, so he temporarily stayed in Beihai to deal with the things left behind.
