Just when everyone was surprised, Cao Cao laughed loudly.

"Hahaha!! Wen Ruo's opinion is in line with Lonely's heart. The matter of the Cao and Sun families uniting is a big matter, and there must be no mistakes. If it is a married person, he will not be able to enter Sun Shangxiang's eyes and will be rejected by him. Where is the lonely face!? When he should be looking for the first hero in the world, Sun Shangxiang can get his heart and secretly promise! Everyone, is there anyone who can choose the number one hero in the world? ”

As soon as Cao Cao's words fell, all the ministers knelt on the ground and bowed and shouted in unison.

"It is none other than the King of Wei !!"

The sound shook the hall, and Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard it, but he pretended to be embarrassed.

"Lone is old, and in the past, he was a comrade with Sun Wentai, and when the princes of the Eighteenth Road crusaded against Dong Thief, Lone was commensurate with his brother. According to the generation, Sun Shangxiang is the niece of the orphan, and it is not in line with the etiquette! ”

"The king's words are not right. The so-called beauty is matched with a hero, if the beauty can fall in love, how can it be restrained by the age of the teeth? What's more, right now, apart from the king, who is worthy of being a hero in the world and earning the hearts of beauties? ! ”

Guo Jiasu attended Bingdao. Xun Yu was also beside him, and he echoed his words.

"What Marquis Zhen said is extremely true. The king actually knew that Cao and Sun would be connected, which was extremely important, if for the sake of the overall situation, he would give up some irrelevant etiquette, what should he worry about? I hope the king thinks twice! ”

After Xun Yu's words fell, the ministers of the Cao family knew Cao Cao's intentions and came to persuade him. Cao Cao was overjoyed in his heart, but on the surface, he half-pushed and half-agreed.

When it is little, the noisy temple repeats calm. Cao Cao was overjoyed, and at the same time, he was even more high-spirited, and discussed with the civil and military forces.

"Now Liu Bei is far away from Xichuan, Zhuge Liang is independently guarding Jingzhou, and Jingzhou is attacked everywhere, like a fish in a kettle and a tiger in a trap. The person Liu Bei relied on was Zhuge Kongming, and if he lost it, his momentum would collapse. If he hadn't captured Zhu Kong Ming at this time, if he had become a momentum and gathered in Jingzhou and Xichuan, it would be like releasing fish into the sea and returning to the mountains with tigers.

For the sake of the overall situation, if Gu wants to marry the Sun family of Eastern Wu, Gu accepts Sun Bofu's sister as a concubine, and then promises to divide the land of Jiangxia and Nanjun, and Cao and Sun Yong form an alliance. If he breaks Jingzhou alone and rests for a few years, the soldiers can recuperate and recharge, and two-thirds of the forces in the world will be combined, Sun Bofu will be shocked and surrender, and then crusade against the northwest, then the lone emperor will be able to dominate the industry! I hope that you will work hard to move forward and never let down the hope of loneliness! ”

Cao Cao is on the high hall, the momentum is surging, if there is a trend of turning the sky and the sea, a group of Cao's civil and military kneeling on the ground, responding in unison, the sound waves swept the hall, magnificent!

Cao Cao asked who was the envoy, Xun Yu recommended Liu Ye, followed his words, and then sent Liu Ye to Dongwu on the one hand, and counted 120,000 horse infantry troops on the other hand, falsely claiming 200,000, and deployed troops in the Central Plains and Jingzhou border, and then ordered Xun Yu to be responsible for the supply of heavy grain and grass, siege equipment and other materials for each army.

At the same time, Guo Jia also admonished, teaching Cao Cao to demarcate the border in Hanoi, bluffing, and using suspicious tactics, so that the people of the world thought that Cao's army wanted to send troops to the north and conquer the northwest.

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard the plan, so he sent people to order Li Dian, the guard of the border in Hanoi, to act according to the plan.

Cao Cao wants to march south again, and now he is making arrangements. Half a month later, according to Guanyu in Hanoi, the Cao army heard that there was a great movement of troops and horses in the boundary of Hanoi, and he hurriedly ordered the generals in Hanoi to wake up the spirit of the twelve points and beware of the attack of the Cao army. At the same time, many scouts were sent to Hanoi to demarcate the border and pay attention to Cao Jun's every move.

Xi Zhi learned of this and rushed to find Guan Yu. Listening to the scouts one by one, I knew that there was a boundary in Hanoi, but I saw Cao's soldiers and horses moving, and I didn't see the heavy pressure of grain and grass. Xi Zhicai settled down and said to Guan Yu.

"Guan Gong doesn't have to worry too much. This is Cao Cao's suspicious plan. Presumably at this time, Cao Cao was gathering troops and horses at the boundary of Jingzhou to prepare for the southern expedition! ”

When Guan Yu heard this, he was relieved, but he didn't dare to be careless, and set up secret posts in various dangerous areas on the boundary of Hanoi, and closely watched Cao Jun's every move.

However, he said that Zhuge Liang was in Jingzhou, conscientious, day and night, dealing with affairs, training soldiers and horses on the one hand, and beware of Cao and Sun invading Jingzhou. When the Qixi Festival, Zhuge Liang held a night banquet for all officials to talk about the collection of Sichuan. Between the banquets, I saw a star in the west, which was as big as a bucket, and the bucket flew suddenly, looking north and throwing it. Zhuge Liang was shocked, threw his cup on the ground, and shouted in a lost voice.

"Alas! It hurts!! ”

The officials panicked and asked why. Zhuge Liang's face was full of pain, and he didn't know the reason, so he only taught people to go to Jiangxia quickly to pick up Huang Zhong's family to come to Jingzhou. All the officials were shocked, and Yi was busy attending.

"General Huang is following the emperor's uncle to crusade against the thieves in Shu, and now the military adviser has arrested his family for no reason, if the matter is leaked. General Huang Lao will be secretly angry, and it is very likely that he will defect to the northwest, which is really unwise! ”

Zhuge Liang listened to the words and shook his head.

"You really don't know, at this time, General Huang Lao was already unexpected, and most of them were captured by the Northwest Army. General Huang Lao has excellent martial arts, if he falls under Wen Bufan and becomes his minions, he will become a big trouble in the future. Now we should quickly grasp and take his family, and with the wisdom of General Huang, we should know how to report the safety of his family. ”

The officials were amazed and did not believe what they said. Seeing this, Zhuge Liang said in a condensed voice.

"Within a few days, there will be news. If you don't believe it, you can send someone to Jiangxia to spy on it first, and when the letter comes, you will arrest him, and you must not miss the slightest. ”

Zhuge Liang was very cold, and he was not happy to drink at night. Yi and Huang Zhong have always been good friends, but they really can't bear it, so they secretly sent people from the house to Jiangxia that night to tell Huang Zhong's son, Huang Xu.

A few days later, Zhuge Liang was discussing with the palace and the officials. Suddenly, someone reported that Liu Feng had arrived, and all the officials were shocked. Shaoqing Liu sealed the palace and presented Liu Bei's letter. Zhuge Liang knew what was on the letter, sighed more than nothing, opened the letter and looked at it, and said that half a month ago, Huang Zhong fought alone against the generals in the northwest, and was finally captured ineffectively. After Zhuge Liang finished reading it, he looked at the officials with his trust. When the officials saw that the result was as Zhuge Liang had expected, they were all shocked. Zhuge Liang quickly sent someone to order Zhang Fei, who was guarding Jiangxia, to arrest Huang Zhong's family. But not long after Zhuge Liang's military order fell, someone quickly entered the palace to report, three days ago, Huang Xu didn't know how to receive information, and took away his family that night and left Jiangxia.

Zhuge Liang was shocked and panicked when he heard this, and immediately turned his eyes to the Yi nationality, as if he had guessed what the Yi nationality had done beforehand. Yi knew that he couldn't hide it from Zhuge Liang, so he immediately knelt on the ground and confessed his guilt. Zhuge Liang was furious, pointing at the Yi nationality and scolding him angrily, wanting to kill the Yi nationality. Seeing this, all the officials came together to persuade them. Pan Feng thought that in the past, Yi had repeatedly rescued Liu Bei, and he also attended to persuade him, saying that he had made contributions in the past. Liu Bei was able to obtain Jingzhou, and his Yi nationality was indispensable. Although Zhuge Liang wants to behead the Iraqi nationality and use the Ming military law, but he wants the Iraqi nationality to be an important minister in Jingzhou, and the current foundation is unstable.

Zhuge Liang immediately sent people to explore the traces of Huang Xu and others at various passes in Jingzhou, and it was necessary to arrest them. But what is extremely strange is that Huang Xu seems to have evaporated from the world, and there has been no news for several days.

At this time, he said that Sun Ce of Eastern Wu received a letter from Wenhan and learned that Liu Bei had left Xichuan and secretly tried to get it. After Sun Ce saw it, he sneered, and then summoned the ministers to discuss.

"At that time, there was an order from the imperial court, and Gongjin was named the Taishou of Nanjun. At the beginning, I sent someone to get it, but Zhuge Liang shirked it many times and delayed for time. Now Liu Bei went to Xichuan and wanted to plot against the forty-one states of Bashu, if Liu Bei got it, its foundation would be completed. In the future, it will be difficult for us to take Jingzhou. Now take advantage of Liu Bei's absence in Jingzhou, send someone to claim Nanjun, if you get Nanjun, we will wait for Jiangxia to secretly plot. At that time, the four counties of Nanjun, Jiangxia, Changsha, and Guiyang all fell into my hands. These four counties are adjacent to our country, the country is dangerous, and the people are rich. If I have it, so will I have the assets of the emperor. ”

Zhou Yu heard the words and attended the admonition.

"What the lord said is very true. If I want to seek the great cause of the world, I must first take these four counties. According to Yu's opinion, it is advisable to follow the plan of the lord.

If it is not returned, it will be done! ”

Zhou Yu's star-like eyes, shimmering and shining, burst out with a surging momentum that wanted to swallow the world and gallop the world. Seeing this, Zhang Zhao hurriedly attended the admonition.

"Wu Zhongfang is Ning, don't move troops. And if we raise troops, Cao Cao of the Central Plains has been recuperating for a long time, and he will take advantage of the situation to take Yanzhou and invade my Yangzhou realm. Zhao has a plan to make Zhuge Liang return Nanjun's hands to the lord. ”

When Sun Ce heard this, his domineering tiger eyes narrowed suddenly, first suppressed his temper, and asked in a cold voice.

"Gong Zhang, but let's hear it."

Zhang Zhao knew that Sun Ce was a war-loving person, and he was afraid that he would send troops to attack Jingzhou desperately, so he hurriedly said.

"The old minister's plan is a bitter plan. Now Zhuge Liang guards Jingzhou, Liu Bei believes in him and leaves all matters big and small to Zhuge Liang to decide. And Zhuge Liang's brother Zhuge Jin is now in my Jiangdong, why not do it by him? ”

As soon as Zhang Zhao's words fell, Zhuge Jin's face suddenly changed drastically, and he guessed what Zhang Zhao wanted, stood up suddenly, and pointed at Zhang Zhao angrily and scolded.

"Zhang Zibu, you are so crazy!! Sin does not harm the family! What's more, I, Zhuge Ziyu, have been loyal to Dongwu since I asked, and since I was in office, I have been conscientious and conscientious, and I have not committed any crimes in autumn. Now you want to harm my family, how can you bear it!! ”

Sun Ce also felt that this was a lack of virtue, and said urgently.

"Zhuge Ziyu is an honest gentleman, and he is patient and detains his old and young! Zhang Gong's plan is rubbing, and he must not do so. ”

Zhang Zhao smiled, first made amends to Zhuge Jin, and then admonished Sun Ce again.

"Princes, don't be angry, but listen to the old minister first. If the lord takes Ziyu and the old and the young under him, and then makes Ziyu go to Sichuan to tell his brother, he will be moved by affection, and tell him that if he does not return it, it will affect my old and young. Zhuge Liang remembered the feelings of his compatriots, and most of them agreed. Of course, if Zhuge Liang is ruthless and unwilling to make a promise, the lord will not harm Ziyu and his children, this is a strategy. I also hope that Ziyu will endure humiliation and take the overall situation first. ”

The anger on Zhuge Jin's face faded slightly when he heard this, Zhou Yu listened to the plan, and secretly said that it was wonderful, so he said politely to Zhuge Jin.

"Zhang Gong's plan is wonderful. If he can obtain Nanjun in the future, he should have the greatest merit with Ziyu. Even if Wu Hou will not treat Ziyu badly, and Ziyu's family is small. ”
