Chapter 122: Alliance
"Xuanhu, I haven't seen you for a long time, how did you come to the grass for my brother's realm?"
As soon as they met, Cao Cao made a joke to Qin Hua.
"Mende joked."
Qin Hua hurriedly invited everyone to sit down, and he suddenly found a strange-looking person, this person's face was like a heavy jujube, his eyebrows were like lying silkworms, and his long beard, Qin Hua immediately thought of Guan Yu.
"Second Master Guan?"
Qin Hua blurted out at Guan Yu.
"The last general doesn't dare, the hussar general is serious."
Guan Yu is arrogant and arrogant, and he doesn't care about mediocre people at all, but Qin Hua's prestige has already spread all over China, and Guan Yu, who is only a lieutenant at this time, naturally does not dare to accept Qin Hua's words.
"Xuanhu has seen Yun Chang before?"
"No, I..."
Qin Hua didn't know how to explain it for a while, the main Guan Yu was too famous in later generations, and now when he saw the real person, he couldn't help but blurt out.
"I heard that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are both enemies, and now they have all been under the command of Cao Gong?"
Guo Jia also saw Qin Hua's embarrassment, and hurriedly found a topic.
"Haha."
Hearing Guo Jia's words, Cao Cao came over and patted Guan Yu's arm, and Guan Yu was also very useful to Guo Jia's words.
Zhang Fei, who was also mentioned, didn't care, he was still standing behind Liu Bei, no one paid attention to him, and he didn't speak.
Liu Bei has always wanted to find an opportunity to introduce himself, he is meeting Qin Hua for the first time, and of course he wants to brush up on his presence.
It's a pity that Qin Hua and Cao Cao are at home in Nala, and he doesn't have a chance to speak at all.
"Could this be Guo Fengxiao, who is known as a ghost?"
After chatting for a while, Cao Cao suddenly remembered Guo Jia's origin.
"Brother Meng De has also heard of Fengxiao?"
"That's natural, Wen Ruo and Zhicai have already recommended Fengxiao to me many times, but it's only because he has already invested in Xuanhu's command that I didn't write a letter to solicit him."
In fact, Cao Cao didn't think about recruiting Guo Jia at all, but Guo Jia was still young at that time, and Cao Cao didn't want to offend Qin Hua for a teenager.
He never thought that Guo Jia would have such ability, and heard that Qin Hua's plan to destroy the Baibo Yellow Turban and defeat the Xiongnu and occupy the state was all from Guo Jia's hands.
"Mondstadt is here this time, I don't know what is the matter?"
After chatting for a long time, Qin Hua finally got to the point.
He knew that although Taishan County seemed to be harmonious now, Cao Cao even brought only a few soldiers and horses to his cottage, but he had already planted heavy troops in the counties on the side.
Qin Hua's Nighthawk is not a vegetarian, especially now that Qin Hua himself is in Taishan County, so the intelligence collection near Taishan County is particularly careful.
"Xuanhu should know that I have a great enmity with Lu Bu, he rashly occupied Yanzhou before, and now although he has fled to Xuzhou, I will definitely crusade against him. It's just that Lu Bu's bravery is abnormal, and I think that none of the generals under his command are his opponents, so I came to ask Xuanhu for help. ”
"Who is not Lu Bu's opponent anymore."
Suddenly, a voice interrupted Cao Cao's words, it turned out to be a black-faced man beside Guan Yu, Qin Hua thought to himself that this person was probably Zhang Fei.
Sure enough, Guan Yu on the side immediately pulled the man and said, "Third brother, Hugh is rude." ”
Seeing Zhang Fei's appearance, Cao Cao was not angry, but smiled.
"But..."
Zhang Fei said with some unwillingness, it has always been his dream to defeat Lu Bu, this time he was said in public that he was not as good as Lu Bu, how could Zhang Fei not be angry.
"Cao Gong said that he is a general, and you admit that you are a general under his command?"
"I..."
For a while, Zhang Fei didn't know what to say, he had never admitted that he was Cao Cao's subordinate, and now Cao Cao said that the generals under his command did not include Zhang Fei, so what was there to be angry about?
Cao Cao and Qin Hua ignored Guan Yu's whispers, and they continued to talk about the alliance.
Yes, this time Cao Cao not only came to ask Qin Hua for help, but also wanted to form an alliance with Qin Hua.
Because with the disappearance of various small forces, the two biggest forces around Cao Cao are the two brothers of the Yuan family, if they come together to attack Cao Cao, then Cao Cao will be very uncomfortable, so he wants to form an alliance with Qin Hua, so that he can fight against the possible alliance of the two Yuan.
"Alliance? It's not impossible. ”
Qin Hua pondered the pros and cons in his mind.
Cao Cao's ability is well known to him, and he should have been obtained by Cao Cao, but now he only relied on being able to meet the future, so he took the land of Liangzhou, Bingzhou and Sili.
However, Qin Hua was also hesitating, should he ally with Cao Cao against the two Yuan?
Now on the surface of the situation, the two Yuan are obviously able to crush Cao Cao, but although the two brothers of the Yuan family are from the same family, they are not in unison.
If Qin Hua formed an alliance with Cao Cao, it would not be difficult to break them one by one at that time.
In this way, Cao Cao can still become the overlord of the Central Plains again, will it be good or bad for him at that time? If you deal with Cao Cao, even if you have the advantage of your own forces, you may not be able to win.
And if he does not form an alliance with Cao Cao and turns to an alliance with Yuan Shao, the battle of Guandu will inevitably be rewritten at that time, and if Yuan Shao annexes Cao Cao, even if Yuan Shao can do his best in the land of Kwantung, Qin Hua will be confident that he will defeat Yuan Shao.
"Forget it, Cao Cao is not bad to himself, and he doesn't want to be his enemy for the time being."
Qin Hua remembered the first time he saw Cao Cao in Luoyang, and Cao Cao had always been very friendly to Qin Hua.
"Hahaha, good, good, good, as long as Xuanhu helps me, after defeating Lu Bu, I am willing to offer 300,000 stone grain and grass, 10,000 yuan, as a subsidy for this battle."
"Meng De is so generous."
Qin Hua didn't expect Cao Cao to be willing to give such a rich return, you must know that in their previous negotiations, Qin Hua only needed to lead the 30,000 bandit army and the 3,000 Xuanjia cavalry, and did not need to transfer troops from Luoyang.
"Meng De is so generous, I won't shirk my little brother. It's just that these Taishan Kou's family members hope to settle in Luoyang, and I don't know if Meng De can be accommodating. ”
"This is a trivial matter, I can let Cheng Zhongde arrange it."
Because the alliance was negotiated, Qin Hua set up a banquet in the cottage to entertain Cao Cao and his party.
During the banquet, Zhang Fei, Xiahoudun and others all wanted to challenge Qin Hua.
Although Qin Hua himself wanted to meet these people, how could Guo Jia agree to such a thing.
His competition with Zang Ba was to subdue Zang Ba, and what was it to compete with these generals under Cao Cao.
So under the challenge of everyone, Xu Huang, Zang Ba, Beigong Che, Yan Xing, and Ma Chao came on the field one by one.
Cao Cao never thought that Qin Hua's generals were not around, but just the people here could win more and lose less.
Especially the person named Xu Huang, who was able to fight a draw with Guan Yu.
Although Zang Ba lost to Zhang Fei, the difference in strength between the two is not large.
Beigong Che defeated Xiahoudun, Yan Xing defeated Cao Hong, and only Ma Chao was defeated by Xu Chu.
It's just that the gap between the young Ma Chao and the adult Xu Chu is still obvious, but Qin Hua believes that when Ma Chao becomes an adult, his strength will inevitably be above Xu Chu.
Because the current Ma Chao is no longer the one in history, Qin Hua has corresponding training for Ma Chao and others, and after systematic training, Ma Chao's growth space will definitely be greater.
Ignoring Ma Chao, who was huffing and whirring, Qin Hua picked up the wine cup and looked at the people present.
Cao Cao, Xiahou Brothers, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Cao Jun's generals, Liu Bei three brothers, and Xu Huang, Zang Ba, Yan Xing, Ma Chao, the generals have quite spectacular plastic surgery.
Suddenly, Qin Hua noticed that there was a young general in Liu Bei's seat, this person had a handsome face, looked young, and didn't seem to be a veteran of the battlefield.
"This general looks at Mian Shan, and he doesn't know what to call it."
"This is the subordinate of the preparation, Zhao Yun, the word Zilong, is now a partial general."
Liu Bei, who had been holding back for a long time, rushed to introduce his subordinates to Qin Hua before Cao Cao.
"It turns out that General Zhao is disrespectful and disrespectful."
Qin Hua picked up the wine cup and toasted Zhao Yun from afar.
"Zilong, the hussar general is toasting you."
Qin Hua's toast made Zhao Yun stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the Hussar General of the Great Han Dynasty, the hussar general who was in the same position as the Third Duke, would actually toast to himself, a small partial general.
"The general is loved, and the young general is ashamed."
Zhao Yun hurriedly stood up and raised his wine glass towards Qin Hua.
Cao Cao watched the two toast from the side, he didn't know why Qin Hua suddenly wanted this young general to toast, and he was a little confused.
"Could it be that this is just an excuse for Xuanhu to talk to Liu Bei?"
Cao Cao had already calculated in his heart that if Qin Hua had too much contact with Liu Bei, it would definitely have an impact on his plan.
In order to prevent the two of them from talking too much, Cao Cao immediately raised his glass to Qin Hua again, and the two drank cup by cup again.
Seeing that Qin Hua only chatted with Cao Cao again after just a few words of greeting with Zhao Yun, and no longer paid attention to himself, Liu Bei felt a trace of loss in his heart.
The banquet lasted until midnight, and the outside was covered with snow, and Cao Cao and his party stayed in the cottage that night.
On the second day, the wind and snow had stopped, and Cao Cao led the people away. The two sides agreed on a time to attack Xuzhou, and they prepared to go.
And Qin Hua used the excuse of convenience to contact Cao Cao, so he left Zhao Yun behind.
Cao Cao and Liu Bei agreed to this request for their own purposes, and Zhao Yun stayed in Qin Hua's cottage like this.
And the first thing that left Zhao Yun behind, Qin Hua actually asked him to compete.
"It's... The junior general will not dare, if he hurts the general..."
Before Zhao Yun finished speaking, he was interrupted by Qin Hua: "You are very confident, do you think you can defeat me before the war starts?" ”
"I..."
Zhao Yun stumped again.
Zhao Yun, who had just left his master after coming down the mountain, although he had served under Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei, they were all minor officials, even if Cao Cao had sealed Liu Bei's subordinates, Zhao Yun only got a partial general position.
He never thought that he would have the opportunity to fight against the hussar general Qin Hua.
"Okay, take it easy, I'll be rewarded for winning, it's okay if you lose, if you can hurt me, there's a reward for the same."
Seeing that Qin Hua was so determined, Zhao Yun gradually relaxed, picked up his bright silver spear and brandished it.
Seeing Zhao Yun finish dancing a round of spears, Qin Hua knew that this person's marksmanship was definitely not bad.
So he also took out the meteorite and began to fight against Zhao Yun.
Ma Chao, who was still a little disdainful at first, was still thinking about how to defeat Xu Chu, he didn't expect that the person Qin Hua left behind casually actually had such a terrifying ability.
Regarding Qin Hua's strength, Ma Chao knows very well, he has not gone through fifty rounds under Qin Hua until now? And in many cases, it was Qin Hua who deliberately released the water, so that he could support it until fifty rounds.
And now that Zhao Yun has actually fought with Qin Hua for fifty rounds, the two sides can't see who is stronger at the moment.
However, soon the situation on the battlefield began to change, Qin Hua increased the strength in his hand, and Zhao Yun began to get up a little.
Zhao Yun found that although Qin Hua didn't have any marksmanship, his marksmanship came more from actual combat, and it was not only a marksmanship modified in practice, so he felt very uncomfortable in battle.
Later, Zhao Yun also began to change slowly, no longer killing the moves passed down by the master, but constantly adjusting according to the form of the scene.
"Be careful, Shiratori Lance."
Suddenly, Zhao Yun roared, and suddenly the tip of his bright silver spear seemed to disappear, flying rapidly.
And in front of Zhao Yun, in addition to the bright silver spear that could not see the tip of the spear, there was also a voice similar to the name of a white bird.
"Is this the famous Hundred Bird Spear?"
Qin Hua immediately cheered up and went to crack it, for Zhao Yun's White Bird Chaohuang marksmanship, Qin Hua had always been very much looking forward to it.
Today I finally got my wish.
Qin Hua also began to swing his spear quickly, facing the hunter who won with speed, Qin Hua preferred to solve the problem from the root.
He was ready to defeat Zhao Yun quickly, but under Zhao Yun's wielding, Qin Hua's spear technique could not be won as easily as he was willing to win.
"I cracked the White Bird Spear."
As the smoke cleared, he saw Qin Hua grabbing the handle of the bright silver spear that was about to take this person Qin Hua's abdomen with one hand, and the tip of Qin Hua's meteorite spear had already reached Zhao Yun's neck.
"Good"
Everyone shouted in unison, and they finally saw that there were still people outside the people, not to mention Qin Hua, it is estimated that even Zhao Yun is not an opponent "If General Zhao does not give up, he is willing to come to the position of captain." ”
"This..."
It was also the first time for Zhao Yun to encounter such a difficult opponent, although he had also participated in a lot of wars before, but his position was not high, and it was impossible for him to encounter any opportunities to play to his heart's content.
Basically, every time I make a shot, I don't have much strength, and the opponent falls.
And this time he finally met a person who could fully reveal his true strength, but he was still defeated.
"I'm sorry, General, but the clouds are going to live up to your good intentions."
After thinking about it repeatedly, Zhao Yun still did not agree to join Qin Hua's command, this is because Zhao Yun is not actually Liu Bei's subordinate, to be precise, he is Gongsun Zhan's subordinate, and he was only loaned to Liu Bei by Gongsun Chan before.
Therefore, Zhao Yun can't be under Qin Hua's command now, he needs to complete the order given to him by Gongsun Zhan, so that he can do other things.
"In this way, I will not force it."
Qin Hua thought helplessly, he thought that he should be able to finish this fight.
"Lord, Duke Cao's letter is here."
