Chapter 250: Xu Tian, King of Chu (1)
Cao Ren committed suicide without any hesitation, which made Wei Yan awe-inspired.
Putting everything aside, just by this alone, Cao Ren can be regarded as a real man.
Wei Yan turned over and dismounted, took off his helmet, and bowed to Cao Ren who was lying on the ground.
"Come on, carry General Cao back and bury him!"
After a moment, Wei Yan slowly got up and spoke behind him.
With Cao Ren's death, everything here seems to have returned to peace.
Of course, Wei Yan would not be polite to the materials and warships left by Lu Xun, and after accepting them generously, he returned to Jiangling City in a mighty manner.
At the same time, Lu Xun, who had just returned to Chaisang and had not had time to sleep, received a military report.
Liu Bei led an army of 80,000, known as 150,000, and gathered thousands of warships to rush to Chaisang.
The banner is to avenge Guan and Zhang.
And unceremoniously threatened to fight with Jiangdong endlessly!
At this moment, Lu Xun understood that a big war was inevitable.
Peace talks are unlikely, all he has to do is to take all precautions and start a war with Liu Bei.
For Lu Xun, the only good news was that Cao Cao suddenly withdrew his troops and went back.
For this information, he was really relieved after repeatedly confirming it.
For a long time, Lu Xun was most worried about Cao Cao's two armies attacking at the same time.
If Liu Bei is added, then the crisis will be unprecedentedly huge.
After arranging non-stop, Lu Xun returned to the camp.
He needs to take a good rest, otherwise, he doesn't need Liu Bei to kill him, he himself is exhausted.
As soon as he returned to the tent, Lu Xun saw Huang Gai, who seemed to have arrived a long time ago.
"Old General!" Lu Xun hugged his fists and bowed.
"The Metropolitan Governor has worked hard!" Huang Gai turned his head when he heard the sound and smiled back.
Looking at Lu Xun's tired look, Huang Gai was a little unbearable.
But things come at any time, especially war.
At any moment, the enemy will appear in front of you.
Therefore, as a general, you must do everything to deal with it.
"The old general is here, what's the matter, right?" Lu Xun rubbed his eyes, which were already swollen and painful.
"Yes! Liu Bei is now menacing, I'm afraid it won't take three days, and a big war will come!
Perhaps this time is the biggest crisis in our Jiangdong!
But there is one thing, I haven't figured it out yet, why did this Cao Cao suddenly withdraw his troops and go back?
It stands to reason that he has done such a big game, and he should do his best to do it!
But now it's so easy to go back, it's incredible to think about it! ”
Huang Gai said, a little incredulous, originally, he was ready to fight with Cao Liu.
Even, if Chai Sang can't hold it, what to do next, he has already thought about it.
"There is only one possibility for Cao Cao to do this, there is a problem in his rear!
But I have a feeling that this time it should have something to do with that Xu Tian! ”
Hearing this name, Huang Gai was silent, all of them Jiangdong generals can forget it, but they will not forget Xu Tian.
Whatever this person does, he can shock everyone by taking out one piece at random.
To say that the other party may let Cao Cao become like this, it is really possible.
"None of this matters anymore, now we should think about how to deal with Liu Bei.
The lord has given a death order, we must guard Chaisang!
Otherwise, once this place is lost, it will threaten the entire Jiangdong! ”
There is another sentence, Huang Gai didn't say, he made a military order to Sun Quan.
"Now our opponent is only Liu Bei, and the 20,000 elite soldiers prepared for us by the lord may play a huge role!"
Hearing this, Lu Xun couldn't help but feel shocked.
It wasn't until he came to Chaisang that he knew that Huang Gai had brought 20,000 elite soldiers with him on this trip.
This is what Sun Quan wanted him to guard against Cao Cao.
Today, only the two of them know the news.
If you really fight with Liu Bei, these 20,000 people may have an unexpected harvest...
…
Jingzhou, Xiangyang City.
At this time, Xiangyang has undergone earth-shaking changes.
All of this is because Xu Tian brought the emperor back.
As soon as Cheng Yu and Cao Ren were released, Xu Tian began to arrange for his return to Xiangyang.
After a series of arrangements, we set off for home.
So, at the same time as Cao Cao withdrew his troops, Xu Tian also returned to Xiangyang.
Of course, Cao Cao, who was already lying on the sickbed, didn't know all this.
He only had anger and humiliation in his heart, but he didn't expect that the person he could crush to death at will would make such a big move now.
even made himself anxious, at this time, Cao Cao began to miss Xun Yu.
If Xun Yu's suggestion had been adopted at that time, perhaps today's incident would not have happened at all.
After Xu Tian returned to Xiangyang, he began a thorough transformation.
After all, this will become the nominal Kyoto.
Although it is said that the current situation is different from Dong Zhuo's meeting in Beijing.
There are only a few princes in the world, but the name of the Han has always existed.
As long as Emperor Han Xian is still the nominal emperor, then, he is useful.
Xu Tian understands this very well, and this is a great opportunity for him.
Now, the emperor is in his hands, and it will be him who coerces the Son of Heaven to order the princes.
This renovation is to be prepared, which also benefited from Xu Tian's previous commercial construction.
Xiangyang's economy is quite prosperous, which can support him to do so.
The former General's Mansion quickly expanded and became a series of palaces.
The palace of the main palace is also named Deyang Hall in accordance with the rules of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Although compared with the one in Luoyang, it is far from the same.
However, although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs, and from the outside, it still looks very majestic.
On this day, in the main hall that began to take shape, the emperor held his first court meeting after coming to Xiangyang.
The officials who followed from Xu Du played their due role as a matter of course.
Things are just as they thought, they were originally not in a high official position, but they are all in high positions at this time.
Although there is only one name, it is already a great thing for them.
And in this process, Xu Tian successfully harvested their true and false loyalty.
However, what Xu Tian didn't expect was that on the first day of the court meeting, Emperor Han Xian personally conferred Xu Tian and was promoted from duke to prince for the king of Chu!
The name of the prince is generally derived from the Warring States period.
Qin, Jin, Qi, and Chu are the most noble.
Because, they represented the most powerful country at that time.
Emperor Han Xian's approach was not only because he had to rely on Xu Tian.
More importantly, such a title is higher than that of Cao Cao's King Wei.
Its intention is self-evident, to burn more fire between Xu Tian and Cao Cao!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" On the top of the main hall, Xu Tian bowed to the emperor for the first time...
