Chapter 383: Cao Cao on Heroes
"In the past, the old lord led us to attack Bishui Pass, before leaving, the Marquis of Jin had told the old lord to be careful about the grain and grass, and the old lord did not take it to heart, who knew that Yuan Shu did not send grain and grass, which led to the defeat of our army, but fortunately, the Marquis of Jin led the soldiers and horses to arrive in time."
Zu Mao's words made the faces of the generals in the tent change greatly, if this was the case, wouldn't Lu Bu have the ability to predict the future.
"It's all nonsense, maybe it's just that the Marquis of Jin learned some information about Yuan Shu that day." Sun Ce waved his hand.
"The lord is a daughter, don't risk your life in the future, it's dangerous to hunt alone." Zu Mao persuaded, and the generals in the tent also persuaded each other when they heard this.
Sun Ce had to reluctantly agree, but he didn't expect that because of Lu Bu's words, it involved his favorite safari, and at the same time secretly ordered someone to find out if there was a detailed work in Jiangdong.
As soon as he returned to the camp, Lu Bu learned that Cao Cao's envoy had invited him to a banquet in the army, Lu Bu smiled slightly, Cao Cao and Sun Ce's thoughts were estimated to be the same, Yanzhou lacked war horses, and if he wanted to have more cavalry, he had to have a good relationship with Bingzhou at the moment.
Yuan Shao wants to buy war horses from Bingzhou, he will not be bored, although Jizhou can not buy war horses directly from Bingzhou, but Jizhou has no shortage of merchants, although the price is a little expensive, the war horses obtained are able to support the needs of the army, if Yuan Shao knew that these were Lu Bu secretly ordered people to sell the worst war horses to Jizhou at a high price, I don't know how he would feel.
"My lord, the Marquis of Shanyang sent someone to invite the lord to go to the army to talk about the old feelings." Dian Wei walked into the big tent and said in a low voice.
Lu Bu nodded, "Since that's the case, Ben Hou will go." ”
After a long talk with Cao Cao, Lu Bu also understood Cao Cao's thoughts, unlike Jiangdong, Cao Cao saw the ambition of the state, he knew that Lu Bu would not be willing to stay in the state, and there would be a rivalry between Jizhou, and Cao Cao wanted to seize the land of Qingzhou, he needed the support of the state, if there was a state on the side, Cao Cao would seize Qingzhou will be more smooth, now Yuan Shao occupies half of Qingzhou, and other counties in Qingzhou must also be coveted, from Liu Biao's canonization of Jizhou officials can be seen one or two, Obviously, Yuan Shao treated Qingzhou as a rule.
Jingzhou's seizure of Yanzhou also made Cao Cao even more disappointed in the Han family, but Liu Biao represents the Han family, at this time in the hearts of the princes, the Han family still has a certain status, if it is with Jingzhou, the only one who suffers is Yanzhou, Yuan Shu is strong enough, but he was overwhelmed by Liu Biao's holy decree to defeat the traitors, otherwise with the strength of Jingzhou, it is easy to win the battle with Yuan Shu.
"Fengxian, now that the Han Dynasty is already in turmoil, you must have seen that the princes with strength in their hands did not take Liu Biao, the emperor, to heart, there are only you and me here, and this marquis has made it clear." Cao Cao sighed: "Although Liu Biao has a good name, but there are many inappropriate things in his actions, he did not claim the emperor, and Jiangdong, Yanzhou, and Yuan Shu had a bad relationship, ostensibly to revitalize the Han Dynasty, how could it not be for the interests of Jingzhou, in the face of the rout of the army, there is no bearing that a king has, if it is not for Feng Xian's efforts to turn the tide, this battle is probably won by Yuan Shu, the defeat of Yuan Highway, is defeated in the grain and grass, is defeated in the hands of Fengxian, not in the hands of Liu Biao. ”
Speaking of this, Cao Cao's tone also has indescribable envy, breaking the traitor Yuan Shu, Lu Bu can be said to have earned enough fame, and personally led the wolf rider to cut off Yuan Shu's grain and grass, this alone is enough to make the princes of the world admire, what martial arts, in the face of absolute glory, are all.
"Meng De, Liu Biao's ability, the princes all know, Sun Ce didn't seem to put Liu Biao as the emperor in his eyes, of course, Meng De is the same, otherwise he would not take the opportunity to occupy the land of Yuzhou." Lu Budao.
Cao Cao smiled bitterly: "Feng Xian, Ben Hou is also helpless, if Yuzhou is occupied by Jingzhou, Yanzhou is in danger, and Liu Bei and Yanzhou have a deep hatred, if the two are united, how can Yanzhou last long, so, I can only fight hard, after the strength in my hand, what can Liu Biao do." ”
Lu Bu nodded slightly, when the princes crusaded against Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao at that time may have a real heart for the Han family, but after Liu Biao's incident, he already had doubts about the Han family, and now the princes are desperate for their own interests, if he doesn't do this, sooner or later it will become a stepping stone for others to achieve fame, from Cao Cao's body, what he feels is an unyielding fighting spirit, even if he suffers setbacks, he can face it calmly, once such a person grows up, it is the most terrifying.
"Feng Xian stayed in the army, and he should also beware of Liu Biao, although Feng Xian got a lot of this big victory, but the relationship between Liu Biao and Yuan Shao is obviously better." Cao Cao reminded.
"Thank you Meng De for reminding me, although Meng De can rest assured about the war horse, but when the caravan passes through Yanzhou in the future, I hope that Meng De can shelter one or two, and the state is barren, and he can only rely on the caravan to earn a little profit."
Cao Cao said with a smile: "Feng Xian's words are not true, there are not only war horses for sale in Bingzhou, but also Jin paper and Jin wine, and I heard that Bingzhou also sells blades to the outside world." ”
"Like Meng De, it is also to prevent others from snooping on the state, Yuan Shao is eyeing the state, and he has the heart to seize the state and Youzhou."
"Fengxian, from your point of view, who can be called a hero in this world?" Cao Cao asked suddenly.
Lu Bu was slightly stunned, in this case, shouldn't Cao Cao ask Liu Bei, right, too, now that the Han Emperor has died in Chang'an, Cao Cao has no Han Emperor in his hands, and it is very difficult to get a huge improvement in strength, it can be said that since the death of the Han Emperor, the direction of the world has been completely detached from cognition, as if Yuan Shu has a sharp weapon like a bed crossbow, but it is unheard of.
"Heroes are naturally saints today." Lu Bu said with a smile.
Cao Cao shook his head solemnly, "Liu Biao looks virtuous on the outside, but in fact he is short-sighted, if it goes on like this, Jingzhou will not be guaranteed sooner or later, Sun Jian died in the hands of the Jingzhou army, with Sun Ce's character, how can Jingzhou be better, after Sun Ce occupies Lujiang County, the Jingzhou army can only return in vain, with the land of Jingzhou, how can it fight against the world." ”
"How is Yuan Shao? The fourth and third dukes, occupying Jizhou, had enough soldiers and food. Lu Bu asked.
Cao Cao shook his head slightly, he and Yuan Shao have played since childhood, and they still have a good understanding of what Yuan Shao's personality is, "If there is no name of the Yuan family, how can Yuan Shao occupy Jizhou, and this person is indecisive and difficult to succeed. ”
The third watch arrives, and it is recommended to reward you
