Sun Ce nodded when he heard this, to be honest, he was quite satisfied in his heart, because Liu Bei's attitude was already quite clear.

In fact, if you think about it, he and himself are the same person, a person in the same boat, so if you don't help yourself, who else can you help. Besides, the Sun and Liu coalition is not only their own. He Cao Mengde ran away with the Yanzhou army first, and his Jiangdong army suffered a lot of losses, but what about him Liu Beijun, is the loss still small? At least compared to the Yanzhou Army, that's really, a huge loss!

So in this way, Sun Yu's allied army used the fastest speed to reach the gate of Xiling City. To tell the truth, because Xiling City was already close at hand before, Sun Ce ordered the whole army to hurry up, even if the previous speed was already the limit, but when the soldiers saw Xiling City close at hand, they burst out a little faster, and this came to the gate of Xiling City, where Cao Cao and everyone greeted Sun Ce and Liu Bei.

If you want to say who Sun Ce doesn't want to see the most at this time, and who he wants to see the most. In fact, both of them are one person, that is, Cao Cao and Cao Mengde, who were looking at Sun Ce and Liu Bei with a smile at this time-

Why didn't Sun Ce want to see Cao Cao, because as soon as he saw Cao Cao, he couldn't help but think of the heavy casualties of his own soldiers. To be honest, Sun Ce knew very well in his heart that if Cao Cao hadn't run away with the Yanzhou army earlier, then at least, even if his own coalition army would still lose. But it's definitely not going to be that bad.

But isn't it, with Cao Cao's Yanzhou army in and out, it is clearly two situations. At least if Cao Cao's Yanzhou army is there. Then Ma Dai and their tens of thousands of horses will not attack the Sun-Liu coalition army, they will not attack the Sun-Liu coalition army, and Cao Cao's Yanzhou army will share part of the pressure, let me ask if the Sun-Liu coalition army will suffer so many casualties.

So as soon as Sun Ce saw Cao Cao, he couldn't help but think of these, the soldiers of his own Jiangdong Army. It's a lot of casualties. It can be said that this has a very big relationship with him, Cao Cao and Cao Mengde, isn't it? Anyway, in Sun Ce's thoughts. That's what he thinks.

Therefore, Cao Cao is the last person he wants to see-

And to say that Cao Cao is the person he wants to see the most at this moment, why do you say that, it is actually very simple.

Still is. Just because of the losses of the Sun-Liu coalition army. The loss of the Jiangdong Army made Sun Ce want to see Cao Cao the most. Because he wanted to ask Cao Cao in person, why did he retreat so early, saying that it sounds good is retreating, but if it is not good, you Cao Mengde just escaped with the Yanzhou army. And it was in full view, himself and Liu Bei, that could be seen clearly. If you Cao Mengde have anything else to say, don't you give yourself an explanation?

How to say. They have long been allied with each other and are allies, but what did you Cao Mengde do? Is there such an ally, like you Cao Mengde, who will dare to form an alliance with your Yanzhou Army in the future.

Therefore, Sun Ce also wanted to see Cao Cao the most, because he had to ask him why this was the case, and he had to give himself an explanation, otherwise Sun Ce would he be able to do it-

Seeing Cao Cao's smile at this time, those who really know him know that this is due to Cao Cao's character, even if he suffers a big defeat, as long as he Cao Mengde is still alive, then he has ten thousand reasons to laugh.

However, although Sun Ce also knew something about this, at this time, all he thought of was that Cao Cao was laughing at him and sarcastic him. How did he look at Cao Cao at this time, how did he think it was like this, he could see that he was angry, but fortunately, he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and did not attack on the spot.

As for Liu Bei, of course he was also unbalanced in his heart, but to be honest, he was much more rational than Sun Ce. Or it should be said that he is so much older than Sun Ce, it is definitely not white, whether it is experience or experience, he is definitely much richer than Sun Ce.

You see that Liu Bei is more than ten years older than Ma Chao, but he is definitely not more experienced and experienced than Ma Chao.

After all, what kind of person is Ma Chao, he has lived for two lifetimes, and how old are they together. And his insight, what he knows, is definitely not comparable to Liu Bei, this is inevitable. No matter how powerful Liu Bei is, he can only be an ancient, with limited knowledge, but Ma Chao is a traverser, and his knowledge is definitely not comparable to the ancients.

At this time, I heard Cao Cao smile at Sun Ce and Liu Bei: ", I've been waiting for a long time again, General Sun, Xuande, please!" ”

The two of them had already dismounted from their horses, the so-called "reaching out and not hitting the smiling man", seeing that Cao Cao was so polite to himself, Sun Ce couldn't help it for a while, and didn't attack on the spot. But I said in my heart that even if I give you Cao Mengde some face here, after I get to the house, I can't let you go!

Sun Ce said to Cao Cao with a smile at this time: "Okay, Cao Sikong, please!" ”

As for Liu Bei's smile is more natural, but whether it is true or false, only he knows best in his heart: "Please!" ”――

So in this way, Cao Cao led the two into Xiling City. To say that Sun Ce and Liu Bei don't know how many times they have been here, they naturally don't need Cao Cao's guidance, but seeing that Cao Cao is so enthusiastic at this time, they can't say too much. Anyway, in Sun Ce's opinion, today's qiē is all casual. As long as you find an opportunity to question him Cao Mengde when the time comes, why is this so, then that's it.

As for Liu Bei. He has nothing to do with himself, although he has a lot of casualties among his own men and horses, anyway, he has more than his Cao Mengde Yanzhou army, but to be honest, compared with Sun Bofu, he is quite good. So he knew in his heart that he had Sun Ce to take the lead. The contradiction with Cao Cao can only get deeper and deeper, and as long as he "sits on the mountain and watches the tiger fight", that is, that's it. I thought it was good. Watch the play, as long as the two of them start fighting, then there will be a good show, isn't it.

Cao Cao took the two of them all the way to his own mansion. "General Sun. Xuande, let's talk about it! ”

As he spoke, he invited them and some of their subordinates, including his subordinates, into the living room of the Taishou Mansion! ――

The living room of the Taishou Mansion is definitely not small, so there are dozens of people, but there is no problem at all. It's not crowded at all.

After Sun Ce and Liu Bei entered the meeting room, Cao Cao asked them to sit down. "General Sun, Xuande, everyone, please sit, sit!"

Sun Ce and the others were not polite, to be honest, not only Sun Ce himself, but also his subordinates, but they all scolded Cao Cao in their hearts. Now that he has suffered such a big defeat, it is because of him Cao Mengde, but he Cao Mengde is still pretending to be a good person here. If it weren't for the fact that his lord didn't say anything, his own people would have scolded him a long time ago.

But even so, they couldn't say anything, but the expressions on the faces of the generals of the Jiangdong Army betrayed them, and they didn't give Cao Cao and the Yanzhou army any good looks. In their opinion, everyone can scold them if they leave their allies behind at this critical time, but now that they see Cao Cao and the Yanzhou army so carefree, their hearts are even more unbalanced.

thought that Lao Tzu was bleeding and sweating on the battlefield before, but the Yanzhou army was fine, and retreated and fled directly-

As soon as they thought of this, they hated Cao Cao in their hearts, but didn't they, when did they suffer this loss, but now it is a beginning, but unfortunately it is not a good start.

Sun Ce and Liu Bei all sat down, but Sun Ce didn't say anything, because in his thoughts, he wanted to see what Cao Cao was going to say. He thinks simply, it depends on how you Cao Mengde explain to yourself, see how you want to say, and give yourself an explanation!

As for Liu Bei sitting there, he didn't even speak first, so it was even more impossible for him to speak first. And he himself is still very clear, this is where he watches the play, and the rest, it is absolutely necessary to say less, there is no benefit. Unless he Sun Bofu has to let himself say it, or he can't be that bird.

In the end, Cao Cao, his words, he thought so, knowing that Sun Ce was here to ask the teacher, but he just wanted to dry them and speak, but he definitely didn't want to say anything in such a hurry. His grandson Fu Liu Xuande won't take the initiative to say it, so he dragged it himself, and when they were impatient to wait, he would say it himself-

Cao Cao had such an idea, and he also guessed a lot of Sun Ce and Liu Bei's thoughts at this time.

In fact, it is indeed not difficult to imagine that if he Sun Bofu does not come to Xingshi to ask for the guilt, then he is not the "Jiangdong Little Overlord" Sun Ce Sun Bofu. If he Liu Xuande didn't come with the attitude of watching the show, then he wouldn't be the thick-skinned Liu Bei Liu Xuande.

For the two of them, although Cao Cao can't talk about how to understand, but the basic understanding is still not less. Just like what Sun Ce and Liu Bei knew about Cao Cao. They didn't dare to say how they knew Cao Cao, but they would never know the basic things.

So that's it, Sun Ce didn't speak, Liu Bei was the same, and Cao Cao didn't say anything for a while because of his thoughts. So, the scene was cold, and there was silence in the living room, in that way. The sound of a needle dropping can be heard clearly.

Cao Cao looked at it, and said in his heart that it was really the same as he thought. You Sun Bofu and Liu Xuande didn't speak, so of course it was me Cao Mengde who spoke first, and there was nothing about it. But it's not so easy for me to speak first, so you two just wait a little longer, and let me see how patient you are.

Sun Ce was indeed a little impatient to wait, after all, he also knew. Since Cao Cao saw that he didn't speak, then he should have spoken first, but he Cao Mengde was going to test his patience.

As for Liu Bei. He was much more patient than Sun Ce, at least not because Cao Cao didn't speak for a while, he couldn't help it. In Liu Bei's opinion. Cao Cao loves to do this. But for myself, it's not very useful. That is, if Sun Bofu is so impatient, he will not be able to hold his breath, and then he will be even more impatient.

But isn't it, looking at his state at this time, it is not difficult to know that he Cao Mengde is proud. But the deeper their contradictions, the better they are for themselves, aren't they?

After another moment, Cao Cao spoke. And at this time, Sun Ce couldn't help it. Of course. As long as he endures it, then Sun Ce can still hold on, how to say that he is the "little overlord of Jiangdong" Sun Ce Sun Bofu, one of the princes of the world, not to be underestimated.

I only heard Cao Cao say: "General Sun, Xuande, you have returned from the battlefield, you should have a good rest at this time!" ”

When Sun Ce and Liu Bei heard this, especially Sun Ce, he said in his heart at this time, but you Cao Mengde asked knowingly, why are you like this, don't you know it anymore? You Cao Mengde knows better than anyone else, do you need me to say anything?

So Sun Ce smiled at Cao Cao: "Cao Sikong's words are good, but before here, if there is one thing that is not solved well, it will be difficult to sleep!" ”

Saying that he was glaring at Cao Cao and his subordinates, the meaning was self-evident, Sun Cexin said, do you still need me to say anything, you have to give me an explanation! ――

At this time, he gave Liu Bei another look, which meant that if Cao Cao pretended to be stupid again, you could just say it and see what else he had to say.

As soon as Liu Bei looked at Sun Ce's eyes, he knew that it seemed that he had thought very well, but he Sun Bofu refused to let go of himself after all, wouldn't he have to pull himself into the water again. He is the same as Cao Mengde, Cao Mengde always provokes, and his grandson Bofu always pulls himself into the water.

However, what else can Liu Bei say about this, he can only reassure Sun Ce that he must have handled this matter well. In fact, he thought very clearly at this time, if he participated, this matter might be more interesting, since the two of them have developed things so slowly, then let this matter develop faster.

Liu Bei naturally didn't have any good ideas in his heart, and in his opinion, he definitely couldn't let the two of them get better. A Cao Cao, that is his great enemy for many years, and his festival with the Yanzhou army is too deep. As for Sun Ce, not to mention, his people often insult themselves, and it is impossible for him not to take revenge, but he has been looking for opportunities-

Sure enough, Cao Cao is still ready to continue to pretend to be stupid, his meaning is simple, as long as you Sun Bofu don't say it, then I won't say it, see how long you can endure it.

If you want to say that Cao Cao knows that he is the one who is at fault, but he will not take the initiative to say anything, he still has to let Sun Ce say it here, it can be seen that he is a traitor.

So at this time, I heard him say: "But I don't know what General Sun means by this, and I still ask for advice in person!" ”

When Sun Ce heard this, it was Huo'er who hit up, but he was immediately pressed down. But he knew that if Cao Cao came to provoke him so many times, he didn't know how long he could endure it. It can be said that he has endured all the way from the battlefield to here, and in terms of his temper, he really exceeds his bottom line, but now he has to endure it.

At this time, Sun Ce glanced at Liu Bei, Liu Bei understood, and said to Cao Cao-

"Cao Sikong, when the decisive battle with the Liangzhou army was fought before, the two sides were allies of each other, but I don't know why Cao Sikong retreated first with the Yanzhou army, leaving the enemy to our army?"

Liu Bei knew that he would say whatever he had to say at this time. He, Cao Mengde and Sun Bofu, didn't say this clearly, but he couldn't. In order to speed up the development of things, of course he can say whatever he wants, and he Cao Mengde and Sun Bofu have to thank themselves for this, don't they. (To be continued......)
