Chapter 195 - On the side of the couch, An can let the tiger sleep soundly.
But why did Lu Bu appear in Wancheng with Cao Cao? It all started three days ago.
Three days ago, after Lu Bu had just annexed Zhang Fei's troops, he sent Zang Ba and Cao Xing to pursue Zhang Fei, who had fled from the desert, but could not find him.
In this regard, Lu Bu had no choice but to give up and turn his head to attack Wanxian again.
The general of this Wan County defending the city is naturally Liang Tai. Liang Tai is a native of Yingyin, after the baby was named Yingyin, he has been following the baby, loyal to the baby, is the baby's right-hand man!
Naturally, his combat was also extremely brave, with more than 3,000 people, he continuously made Lu Bu deflated, and practiced repelling Lu Bu's four attacks. Just when Lu Bu and Qi were in full swing, Cao Cao suddenly arrived with Xiahoudun, Xu Chu and 10,000 soldiers and horses.
When the two understood each other's identities, they decided to join forces to attack Wancheng. However, the two people who were in the same place still suffered two defeats at the hands of Liang Tai.
Later, the two had to attack in two ways. Cao Cao attacked the south gate, and LΓΌ Bu attacked the east gate. Under Zhang Liang's suggestion, Cao Cao had no choice but to divert water from Chongqing and flood Wancheng. It was not until the water in Wancheng was more than three feet high that Wancheng was successfully defeated. Successfully captured Liang Tai himself in the city!
And after this Liang Tai was captured, he swore not to surrender, and Cao Cao could only behead him in pain and raise his wife and children.
.........
Lu Bu ordered someone to prepare a celebration banquet, and Cao Cao wanted to drink some wine early, so he said goodbye and returned. But this Lu Bu had a small calculation in his heart, and he kept pestering Cao Cao, so that Cao Cao couldn't get out.
In Lu Bu's own opinion: Such a big Wancheng was captured by the two of them, so who should be credited with this credit? And who should govern this Wancheng?
Although it was you, Cao Cao, who used water to attack, broke through the city gate. But if it weren't for my previous consumption, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to break through the city so easily! Therefore, the credit of this Wancheng should also have its own share! Only then did he entangle Cao Cao and prevent Cao Cao from withdrawing from the banquet.
In fact, Cao Cao also knew what Lu Bu thought, but he didn't speak for a long time.
At this time, Cao Chong was also secretly thinking: he had been fighting with the Qin army who had killed a thousand knives for three months, and in the end, he made a wedding dress for Xiang Yu! Now that it is hard to conquer this rich Wancheng, do you want to divide the city with you? You dream about it! I can't afford to mess with that Xiang Yu, but it doesn't mean that you Lu Bu and I can't afford to mess with you! It's a big deal, everyone is on fire at one time, compare who has a hard fist!
At this moment, Cao Cao still can't forget the shame of having to send Zhang Liang to Xiang Yu to move troops for help after fighting with Zhao Kuangyin in Guiyang County for three months. At the moment, he was also heartbroken, thinking that if this Lu Bu had a tough attitude, then he would just use Lu Bu to vent his anger. Am I not able to eat your little 2,000 horses with 10,000 horses?
After coming over for a while, Lu Bu finally couldn't stop it, and said straight to the point: "King Jiujiang, today you and I work together to capture Wancheng, this Wancheng is the place of governance, I don't know what you think of King Jiujiang?" β
When Cao Cao heard this, he secretly sneered in his heart: "Hmph, you guy finally can't hold back and tell the truth?" β
"What General Lu said is, so I don't know what General Lu thinks?" Cao Cao asked with a smile.
"Well, I only see it below, since it was captured by me and you as the King of Jiujiang, why don't we take care of half of each person for the time being, and then report to the court in the future, and ask the court to decide, what do you think?"
Lu Budang even said what he thought.
"Oh? How to divide it, please ask General Lu to make it clear. β
"Eh, King Jiujiang, look, why don't you return the southwest of this Wancheng to you, and the northwest to me?"
Cao Cao listened to Lu Bu's words, and immediately sneered in his heart: "You are so smart, although the territory in the southwest direction is much larger than your northwest direction.
But the people in the northwest region have long been empty, and they have already fled one after another at the beginning of the war!
In the southwest, there are many wealthy families! And the farmland in the southwest is basically not abandoned, and there are still people cultivating it! β
Just when Cao Cao was about to have a seizure, Zhang Liang, who was sitting next to Cao Cao, hurriedly gave Cao Cao a look and signaled Cao Cao not to be impatient.
Seeing this, Cao Cao finally regained a trace of reason, suppressed his anger stubbornly, nodded and changed his words: "Okay, good, General Lu's method is good, and it is a good strategy to divide the north and the south."
Then, according to the general's opinion, there are still some things in a certain military camp, so he will retire from the banquet first! Drink slowly! β
Cao Cao slowly drank and pressed slowly, and then withdrew from the mansion with Zhang Liang and others.
Lu Bu and the others looked at Cao Cao, who was leaving, but smiled disdainfully, and then continued to drink and have fun.
When he came to the outside of the mansion, Cao Cao was already trembling with anger, and his hands were clenched into fists.
"Please don't be impatient." Zhang Liang saw Cao Cao like this, and immediately stepped forward.
"! This account, sooner or later, Lao Tzu will have to get it back! Ovary, why did you stop me just now? β
"Lord, Liang just thinks that at present, for the sake of this Wancheng's one-third of an acre, it is not appropriate to fight with this Lu Bu and make a lose-lose situation!
Although Lu Bu's subordinates were no more than 2,000 soldiers, Lu Bu was brave and invincible. The current situation is really not suitable for fighting!
Besides, we can take Wancheng without blood, or even ......more," Zhang Liang said with a mysterious face.
Cao Cao, who was originally furious, heard Zhang Liang's words at this time, and his anger was covered by the doubts in his heart.
"What do you mean?"
"Lord, there are many eyes and ears here, we will discuss it again!" Zhang Liang stroked his beard and smiled.
"Good!"
Immediately, Cao Cao and his entourage went straight to the barracks to listen to Zhang Liang's strategy.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
After entering the army, Zhang Liang had just dismounted, and he was forced to wait for Cao Cao to pull him, and the group followed closely behind the two and entered the big tent.
After entering the account, before everyone could sit down, Cao Cao said, "What's the plan for the ovary?" Come on! β
Seeing this, Zhang Liang smiled and said, "The lord is really anxious!" That's ugly!"
Immediately, Zhang Liang told all the strategies he had calculated in his heart, and after Cao Cao heard it, he was immediately overjoyed, and he almost danced!
Everyone present also secretly admired Zhang Liang's plan. But the only thing is the big guy sitting next to Cao Cao - Xu Chu is scratching his head, confused.
After a long time, this Xu Chu touched his head and said: "Lord, military advisor, if this Lu Bu is unwilling to attack Jingzhou, what can I do?" β
"Hahaha, please rest assured Zhongkang, this Lu Bu will definitely agree to attack Jingzhou with our army!" Zhang Liang saw that Xu Chu was confused, and immediately said with a smile.
"Huh? Why? β
This time, it was Cao Cao who answered Xu Chu's question, and Cao Cao's eyes flashed with a glimmer of essence and said: "On the side of the couch, An can let the tiger sleep soundly!" β
