Chapter 484: Cao Cao's Intentions
Yanzhou, Chenliu, Taishoufu. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this moment, Cao Cao was looking at a letter with him, frowning from time to time, and this letter was naturally sent by Yang Biao and a few people to secretly escape from Luoyang and send it to Cao Cao, asking him to send troops to Luoyang.
Although Cao Cao didn't have many soldiers and horses in his hands, and Yang Biao didn't take him very seriously, no matter how small the mosquito was, it was still meat, and the more he Cao Cao, he would have an extra chance of winning.
And at this moment, Cao Cao was also very hesitant. Since Cao Cao returned to Chen Liu from the Tiger Prison Pass, he has been helped by Chen Liu's wealthy family and has been recruiting troops and horses, although it has not been for a long time, but the strength is far from being comparable to Cao Cao, who only had 5,000 soldiers and horses.
Now Cao Cao has nearly 30,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, but the key is that these 30,000 soldiers and horses do not belong to him completely, or they do not belong to him completely. Therefore, although Cao Cao wanted to send troops, he was also very hesitant.
"Mengde!" At this moment, a figure walked in directly,
"Meng Zhuo, please hurry!" Cao Cao also showed a hint of joy on his face, put down the letter in his hand, and hurried over.
And the person who came over was Cao Cao's friend, Chen Liutai guarded Zhang Miao, and the person who made Cao Cao hesitate was also this Zhang Miao.
This Zhang Miao was famous for his chivalry when he was young, helping the poor and helping others, so there were many strong men attached to him.
It is precisely for this reason that the imperial court recruited him into Luoyang as an official, and he was close friends with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others.
And just a few days ago, when the princes of the Eighteenth Route were begging Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao often showed arrogance after becoming the leader of the alliance, and Zhang Miao was also straightforward and often blamed him.
It is precisely for this reason that Yuan Shao held a grudge and asked Cao Cao to kill Zhang Miao, but Cao Cao naturally disagreed, so Zhang Miao also respected Cao Cao very much.
And after the dissolution of the Union. Zhang Miao, as Chen Liu's Taishou, naturally returned to Chen Liu, and Cao Cao's lair was also Chen Liu, so the two hooked up.
And when Dong Zhuo was crowned king at the beginning, this Zhang Miao was also named King Chen Liu.
And in the eighteen princes, plus Zhou Fan, there are a total of nineteen princes. Among them, Zhou Fan and the six refused this holy decree without hesitation. Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai and Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu did not hesitate to call the king, and then Yuan Shao and other eight people called the king after a period of time.
Among these nineteen people, there are also three who did not explicitly reject the holy decree and did not directly claim the king. looked at it all along, and one of them was him Zhang Miao.
In fact, at the beginning, Zhang Miao also wanted to be the king, but at that time he already had the heart to unite with Cao Cao, so seeing that Cao Cao clearly rejected this holy decree, he hesitated, he still believed in Cao Cao, but he couldn't bear the temptation of this king, so he decided to drag it down to see the situation.
And now that the Son of Heaven of Luoyang has ordered to take back the throne, he Zhang Miao is also happy, and he thinks that his original actions are wise. Now he doesn't know where he threw the royal decree.
It is precisely for this reason that Zhang Miao also knows that Cao Cao has the ability, and he himself respects Cao Cao, so now Cao Cao is the main thing between the two sides, and even this Chen Liutaishou Mansion is now Zhang Miao has given up to Cao Cao. Although Zhang Miao still has the name of Chen Liutaishou, in fact, Cao Cao is more like Chen Liutaishou.
Now among Cao Cao's 30,000 soldiers and horses, half of them are his own soldiers and horses, and the other half are his Zhang Miao's soldiers and horses.
If it was only him Cao Cao's own soldiers and horses, perhaps he would not hesitate to send troops to Luoyang. But now that he has to count half of Zhang Miao's army, Cao Cao has to consider Zhang Miao's feelings. That's why they sent for him.
"Sit together!" Zhang Miao laughed out loud and sat down with Cao Cao.
"Meng Zhuo, have you received an edict from the Son of Heaven?" The relationship between the two is also relatively iron, so Cao Cao asked directly to the point.
Zhang Miao nodded. He took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Cao Cao. He Zhang Miao was one of the eighteen princes of the Dong Alliance, as Chen Liutaishou. Under Yang Biao's policy of casting a wide net to catch more fish, he naturally won't miss it.
Cao Cao stretched out his hand to take it, looked at it casually and put it down directly.
This letter is no different from my own letter, it is just a request for them to send troops.
"Then Meng Zhuo, what do you think?" Cao Cao asked cautiously.
"Mengde, don't mess around!" Zhang Miao's heart trembled. Hurriedly called out.
He really knows Cao Cao too well, since he asked so, then he has the heart to send troops to Luoyang, how can this be.
What he wants to unite with Cao Cao is to value Cao Cao's ability and want to create a career with him in this troubled world.
And now he Cao Cao actually wants to rescue Luoyang, what is the difference between this and a moth fighting a fire, Zhang Miao doesn't want his career to die so early before it starts.
Cao Cao frowned, but sighed in his heart, in fact, he had already guessed it long before Zhang Miao came, but now he was a little unwilling.
"Meng De, our main target now is Liu Dai, as for Luoyang, just leave it to others. The Son of Heaven will not only ask for help from a few of us, but also the champions. Zhang Miao was afraid that Cao Cao would still be a little "unable to think about it", so he continued to say in his ear.
Zhang Miao didn't know the situation on Zhou Fan's side, in his opinion, with Zhou Fan here, where did he need them to take action.
And now is also their most critical time, Yanzhou is now almost divided into two major forces, one of which is Cao Cao and him Zhang Miao, and the other part is that Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai, first take Yanzhou down that is the royal road.
"Also, Brother Yuanyang can even kill Dong Zhuo, how can a mere Li Dao help him!" Hearing Zhou Fan, Cao Cao also showed a smile.
To be honest, he was also taken aback by Zhou Fan, when the alliance was disbanded, it wasn't long before he returned to Chenliu, and Zhou Fan actually solved Dong Zhuo this time, which is really gratifying. With him helping Luoyang, it is true that he is not needed.
Hearing Cao Cao say this, Zhang Miao was also relieved, and said with a smile: "Then Liu Dai claimed to be the king without authorization, seeing that he was unwilling to step down from the throne, this also just gave us the opportunity to send troops!" ”
Originally, they were still thinking about the reason for doing something to Liu Dai, but now that the edict of the Son of Heaven comes, no matter whether Liu Dai retreats from the throne or not, then they can occupy the righteousness and send troops, saving them how much effort.
"Meng Zhuo, don't worry, it won't be long before it's time for us to make a move on Liu Dai!" Cao Cao's eyes flashed with a gleam and said.
"Then it's up to Meng De!" Zhang Miao laughed.
Cao Cao didn't speak, and looked far away in the direction of Liu Dai to the south. (To be continued.) )
