Sun Ce held back his hatred, and after groaning for a while, he sighed and said: "It's still the righteous brother who thinks carefully enough, it seems that I am still not mature enough to be on my own!" ”

"Brother Yi doesn't have to be too himself, how can this imperial hegemony be accomplished overnight? In the future, I am afraid that the tribulations that my brother needs to go through will follow! ”

"I have a righteous brother by my side to assist, but I am not afraid!! I believe that with you and my brother, we will be able to move the world and create a new dynasty!! A dynasty that belongs to you and my brother~!! When Sun Ce heard this, he rose up in his heart, grabbed Zhou Yu's shoulders tightly, and his eyes were full of light.

When Zhou Yu heard this, he also felt that his whole body was boiling like a hot fire, and there was a scorching fire burning in his heart. He has always been as stable as Mount Tai in the face of anyone and everything, and he is not surprised, but there are only two people, and once he meets, it is difficult to keep calm. One of them is Wolong, whom he regards as his old enemy, and the other is Sun Ce in front of him!

Only Sun Ce can arouse his fighting spirit and ambition!

"Brother Yi is right, you and my brother work together, and its profits will be broken! Why worry about big things not happening!? Zhou Yu shouted, his eyes bursting with extremely bright light. Sun Ce also smiled brightly and slowly stretched out his hand, Zhou Yu smiled and immediately stretched out his hand, holding his hands tightly. In the eyes of the two, it is full of firm love between brothers!

Let's say that Sun Ce only broke through Qiaorui's 20,000 army with only 3,000 people, and captured nearly 8,000 people. Sun Ce listened to Zhou Yu's plan, and did not rush to attack Anyang, but first rectified the prisoners and divided the army.

Days passed before I knew it. At this time, Cao Ren had just received the news that Sun Ce had broken through the Qiaorui army, but he heard that Sun Ce did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, and quickly killed Anyang. Cao Ren's subordinates were all suspicious. At this time, Sun Ce's letter suddenly came. Cao Ren then demolished it, and Sun Ce explained in the letter why he did not send troops quickly. Originally, Sun Ce believed that Anyang City was the hinterland of Runan, and the nearby cities were heavily guarded, but if it went deeper, with more than 3,000 troops, it would be surrounded and killed by the other army. Therefore, he did not dare to move lightly, hoping to wait for Cao Ren's army to go, and then attack together. Cao Ren couldn't help but sneer a few times after seeing it, and said, "Hmph! This cunning Sun Bo Fu! It's a high-sounding statement, but it's really cowardly to the enemy, and he also wants to take the opportunity to integrate the captives and strengthen his own power! ”

As soon as Cao Ren's words fell, the fiery Cao Hong was obedient, and couldn't help but be furious, and he got up angrily, glared and shouted: "What a child of the Sun family, when his father was killed, if it wasn't for the lord to take him in, he and his deployment would have become a lonely ghost a long time ago!" Now you dare to be selfish!? Governor, please give an order, and lead the troops to urge the battle! If the child of the Sun family dares to be lazy, he will take his head and offer it!! ”

Hearing Cao Hong's astonishing shouting, all the generals echoed when they heard this, only Xiahoudun had a cold face, sitting quietly, and his eyes flashed with a terrifying light. It is said that Xiahoudun is Cao Cao's arm general, and he has been the vanguard repeatedly, but this time he is not by Cao Cao's side, but Cao Cao intends to enable and train newcomers in the army, and Cao Ren is also the first time to preside over the battle of more than 100,000 men and horses of the two, although Cao Cao believes in Cao Ren's skills, but still sent Xiahoudun to assist him.

However, Cao Ren is also strange, he uses Xiahoudun but not like Cao Cao, he thinks that Xiahoudun is brave and resolute, and his iron-blooded god army is brave and good at fighting, and it is more suitable to be the main force of the front army among the three armies than the vanguard. Moreover, Sun Ce came to ask for his post several times, and also issued a military order, Cao Ren was also strong, so he handed over the responsibility of the pioneer to Sun Ce.

didn't talk much, and seeing that Cao Ren saw that Xiahoudun was silent, he couldn't help but condense, and asked: "Yuan Rang has been silent, I don't know what I'm thinking?" ”

When Xiahoudun heard this, he turned his head, his eyes were bright, and he suddenly said a word, which frightened everyone and changed color.

"Now most of our army is killed in the south, and most of the rest of the troops are based in Hedong and Luoyang. And Xuchang is empty, if that Zhang Wuwei suddenly defects, Xuchang will be broken, and the Central Plains will be endangered! ”

"What!! What do you say!? How could Xuchang be attacked by Zhang Wuwei!? When Cao Hong heard this, he changed color on the spot and asked urgently. Xuchang City is the important place of the Cao Group, and its position is not only dangerous, but also the money, baggage, and all kinds of talents accumulated by the Cao Group over the years. As for those various talents, including blacksmiths, carpenters, tailors and other elites from all walks of life, they are here to develop various equipment and weapons for Cao Cao. Moreover, not long ago, Cao Cao invited the masters, and learned that the dragon veins in Luoyang had been burned down by Li Xuan, and there was no king's breath, so he had always had the heart of moving the capital, and then let the master go to Xuchang to observe, and saw the faint colorful light on the city of Xuchang that day, and saw the purple gas coming from the east, and the king's qi was gathering, and looked at the terrain everywhere, there was a winding long river surrounding, flat mountain highlands, undulating and undulating, faintly there was the momentum of the dragon. Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this, so he intended to move the capital to Xuchang, but he was preparing for a war in the south, and the time had not yet come, so Cao Cao was not in a hurry to act.

In other words, the importance of Xuchang City, for the Cao Group, is not even inferior to the imperial capital Luoyang.

At this moment, Xiahoudun suddenly said that Xuchang might be attacked, which naturally scared everyone so much that their souls were about to fly.

"You have forgotten that Zhang Xiu has always respected his uncle Zhang Ji, but when the lord was in Yingchuan, he hooked up with Zhang Ji's widow Zou behind his back, and even hid it from Zhang Xiu. After Zhang Xiu sent troops to leave, the lord secretly sent people to take the Zou family away, although the lord bought all the people around the Zou family at that time, and taught people to dress up the Zou family, but the paper could not contain the fire! Zhang Xiu treats Zou almost as his own mother, if he learns about it, he will definitely rebel! Xiahoudun said coldly.

When Cao Hong heard this, he also frowned, and shouted: "There is a knife on the head of the color word, and the lord is brave enough, and he is still caring about hooking up with women at such a critical time, and he is also someone else's widow!" ”

"Humph! You know what, this is called great ambition! The lord is an immortal hero, what he wants, what he wants, if he doesn't even have this guts, how can he dare to seize this country and replace it in the future!? Xiahoudun snorted coldly and shouted, but he didn't know what crooked reasoning he said, but when everyone heard it, their hearts were strong.

When Cao Hong heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Hahahaha, Brother Xuan is right!" The lord is eloquent and strategic, and now he is more expensive than today's imperial court, the world is so big, what he wants, he can get it! Whoever dares to resist, I will wait for these tiger and wolf armies to snatch it for him!! ”

"Well said!" As soon as these words came out, Cao Ren, who had not spoken out for a long time, suddenly slapped the case, his eyes were fierce and terrifying, he looked around at the two soldiers, and said unhurriedly: "The lord often tells me that our army needs the nature of tigers and wolves, and I hope you will remember this and not disappoint our lord!" ”

As soon as Cao Ren's words came out, the generals immediately agreed one after another, and the momentum was quite terrifying. Cao Ren immediately looked at Xiahou Tun again and asked, "Then judging from the current situation, I don't know what Yuan Rang has in mind?" ”

"Just in case, the Metropolitan Governor still sent an elite team to the rescue first. As for Sun Ce's place, you don't have to worry, let him rectify it for the time being. The Metropolitan Governor can also stand still and observe the situation, after all, Xuchang is the top priority of my Cao clan, once the army that went to the rescue failed to save the disadvantage, you can also quickly send troops to retreat to the rescue. Xiahoudun said sharply.

When Cao Ren heard this, he first pondered. Cao Hong was stunned, and shouted without thinking about it: "But if the situation is bad then, then Qiao Rui may take the opportunity to cover up and kill, how can this be good!?" ”

Xiahoudun was obedient, the corners of his mouth couldn't help curling, and he said, "Isn't there still that Sun Bo Fuye!?" When the time comes, you can tell him to stay behind. This son is ambitious, and he has gathered a group of warriors who are loyal to the Sun family, and with his ambition, he will become a force again in a few years. Instead of raising tigers, it is better to get rid of them as soon as possible! ”

As soon as Xiahoudun's words came out, everyone was secretly shocked, but they didn't expect that Xiahoudun, who has a strong style on weekdays, would have such a sinister side.

Xiahoudun seemed to sense the strangeness of everyone, and couldn't help but snort coldly: "Sun Ce actually has a different heart, why can't I calculate him?" This kind of cancer should be removed as soon as possible, otherwise it will be harmful to the great cause of the lord and not beneficial! ”

"But the lord has a lot of appreciation for Sun Ce, and with the wisdom of the lord, I'm afraid he can't hide it, once he blames it, won't it hurt the governor?" When Cao Hong heard this, he was worried about Cao Ren.

Cao Ren was obedient, but smiled slightly, and said, "You don't have to worry too much. When the army was dispatched that day, the lord made it clear that he would give me full authority if he did not accept the orders of the foreign monarchs, and as long as it was beneficial to the Cao family, he could allow it. And Yuan Rang's plan is beneficial to my entire Cao Group, and the lord has always had clear rewards and punishments, so how can he blame me? ”

"Good! Then I'm willing to go to Yingchuan! When Cao Hong heard this, his heart was strong, and he immediately surrendered his life. As soon as his words fell, Xiahoudun over there said: "No! With your temperament, once Zhang Wuwei really has the intention to rebel, you will definitely die! And the Metropolitan Governor needs to sit here to control the overall situation, and I must go to Yingchuan! ”

"Well, I think so, too!" As soon as Xiahoudun's words fell, Cao Ren smiled and nodded, Cao Hong listened, and couldn't help but change color secretly, he saw that Yingchuan's trip was dangerous, so he didn't want Xiahoudun, who had a pivotal position in the Cao Group, to take the risk, so he took the initiative to ask Ying. After all, once there is a case, even if he dies, it will not hurt the entire Cao Group much.

Thinking of this, Cao Hong was anxious to invite again. But seeing Cao Ren suddenly waved his hand at him, and then his face was solemn, and he immediately looked at Xiahou and said: "Yuan has made your trip dangerous, and you need to be more careful, in addition, you had better teach someone to rush to Chenliu and report to Liu Ye, which means that it is very powerful." Liu Ye has a bit of vision, once he sees that Xuchang is not good, he will send troops to rescue him in time! That way, you'll be able to buy time and wait for my reinforcements! ”

"I understand the orders of the Grand Governor!" Xiahou shook his head heavily, then got up to receive the order, and was about to leave. When Cao Hong saw it, his face was full of worry, and he was anxious to get up, but he was glared back by Xiahoudun.

But it was said that just when Xiahoudun was about to lead his troops back to Yingchuan, at this time in the main hall of the Chen State, Yuan Shu's face was gloomy and terrifying, his eyes were full of resentment and humiliation, he gritted his teeth, and was even a little hideous.

On the seats on both sides, there were Yuan clans sitting in civil and military affairs, and all of them were secretly shocked at this time, but some people could recover quickly, and some people still couldn't believe the scene in front of them.
