That night, Zhao Yun returned to Luoyang.

first placed Wu Anguo and Guan Hai in the military camp, Zhao Yun saw Jia Xu again, Jia Xu didn't wait for him to speak, and said, "Lord, I already know the matter, Sima Yi has no intention of assisting you, right?" ”

Zhao Yun nodded, "As Mr. expected, it seems that my tree is not worth sheltering the Sima family." ”

"If he can't be used by me, why should such a person be kept in the world?"

Jia Xu smiled indifferently, and casually seemed to have decided Sima Yi's fate.

Zhao Yun waved his hand, "Forget it, people have their own ambitions, you can't force them, just because he doesn't want to serve me, I killed people, sir, is it appropriate to do this?" ”

Jia Xu twisted his beard with his hand, but smiled indifferently, Zhao Yun felt that this kind of thing was inappropriate, but in Jia Xu's opinion, it was nothing at all.

In the following days, although there was no task to send troops for the time being, Zhao Yun was not idle, he was manipulating people, inspecting the achievements of officials, and urging the people to reclaim the land and repair the canals...... It's even busier than when I was fighting before.

Half a month later, news came from Wancheng that Cao Cao returned again, although this time was not as embarrassing as the first time, but in Xu Shu's hands, Cao Cao still did not get a bargain.

After the battle, Xu Shu suggested that Zhang Xiu take the initiative to get closer to Liu Biao, although Liu Biao did not have the ambition to dominate, but he was not at ease, Zhang Xiu resisted Cao Cao in the north, and Liu Biao was naturally happy to see it.

Zhang Xiu's two consecutive performances made Liu Biao's eyes shine, so his attitude towards Zhang Xiu also changed a lot, and he secretly co-opted him and appropriately supplied some grain, grass and armor.

On the other hand, Liu Biao also sent people to Xudu to pretend to be close to Cao Cao, and the envoy sent to Xudu deliberately said that Zhang Xiu was barbaric and cruel, and refused to accept Liu Biao's constraints, so that Cao Cao understood that Zhang Xiu's confrontation with Cao Cao had nothing to do with Liu Biao.

Cao Cao is naturally not so easy to deceive, he secretly scolded Liu Biao in his heart for being treacherous and cunning, but it is also inconvenient to tear his face with Liu Biao, Cao Cao hopes that Sun Ce will raise troops for revenge as soon as possible, and give Liu Biao some color to see.

However, since Sun Jian's death, Jiangdong has suddenly moved a lot less, and has become sluggish, and even Sun Jian's old departments have been unhappy with Sun Ce, and not everyone really supports Sun Ce.

Cao Cao was disappointed, and he also despised Sun Ce, thinking that Jiangdong had become a plate of scattered sand, and his strength was far less than before.

In fact, this is all Zhou Yu's old suspicions, Jiangdong seems to be chaotic on the surface, but in fact, the tide is surging secretly, and he is actively preparing for a decisive battle with Jingzhou.

Zhou Yu's plan deceived everyone by hiding from the world.

No one will doubt it, and naturally think that Sun Jian's death is the source of Jiangdong's chaos, and Sun Ce is too young to control Sun Jian's old departments.

On this day, Jia Xu came to Zhao Yun and told him an amazing news: "Sima Yi was sick and bedridden, and he had wind paralysis and was paralyzed!" ”

Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, and then a hint of insight appeared on his lips, "Sima Yi is really smart, it seems that he not only doesn't want to work for me, but he is only afraid of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's conquest, and he doesn't want to agree." ”

If it weren't for the traverser, Zhao Yun would probably have been really deceived by Sima Yi.

Zhao Yun gradually lost interest in Sima Yi's recruitment, and was too lazy to expose his deceptive tricks, since he was willing to pretend to be sick, let him pretend to be enough.

……

When Cao Cao returned to Xudu, he was very angry in his heart, and he was only a Zhang Xiu, and he couldn't calm down after two successive expeditions, which made Cao Cao very depressed.

Since he held the trump card of Emperor Han, he thought that he would be able to occupy the righteousness and exert the power of 'Fengtianzi to please the ministers', but as a result, he did not destroy a single prince, although he killed Yuan Shu, it was only because Zhao Yun and Sun Jian captured Shouchun, so that Cao Cao happened to pick up a bargain.

is angry, the king of the guards will come to report, "Lu Bu has sent an envoy, and he is now waiting outside the palace gate to receive him." ”

Cao Cao's eyes rolled, and his face was puzzled, "Lu Bu's envoy? ”

Although Lu Bu was driven out of Yanzhou, but as soon as he heard the name Lu Bu, Cao Cao was still a little afraid, when he was by Dong Zhuo's side, every time he saw Lu Bu, Cao Cao felt uncomfortable, Lu Bu had the courage of ten thousand people, killing the enemy and killing the general to shock the Central Plains.

Cao Cao remembered clearly, Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, there were several banquets for civil and military, Lu Bu, the god of killing, would stand by Dong Zhuo's side inch by inch, once Lu Bu toasted everyone one by one, Cao Cao didn't want to drink, Lu Bu glared at him, almost killed him, that sharp eyes, amazing murderous aura, at that time Cao Cao was not lightly scared.

Later, in Puyang and Lu Bu battle, the big Toda clan in the city deliberately dedicated the city, introduced Cao Cao into the city, and fell into Lu Bu's ambush, in the melee Lu Bu urged the horse to kill in front of Cao Cao, and put Fang Tian's halberd against his throat, at that moment, Cao Cao was also frightened, fortunately, Lu Bu did not recognize him at that time, otherwise Cao Cao would have died a long time ago.

As soon as he heard Lu Bu's name, Cao Cao's body trembled involuntarily, and he secretly made up his mind that he must get rid of Lu Bu if he had the opportunity.

"Who did Lu Bu send?"

"It's Chen Deng and Chen Yuanlong." The king will reply.

Although Lü Bu occupied Xuzhou and drove Liu Bei to Xiaopei, so far, the imperial court has not given Lü Bu an official title, and Lü Bu sent Chen Deng precisely for this matter.

Chen Deng, Cao Cao is no stranger, Xuzhou Chen's generations of meritorious service, Cao Cao dare not underestimate, they were the former eunuch Wang Fu's famous minister Chen Qiu, Chen Qi did Pei Guoxiang, Chen Qi's younger brother Chen Yu did Wu Jun Taishou, Chen Deng also once for Tao Qian Tuntian, very famous in Xuzhou, learned that Chen Deng came, Cao Cao was very happy, personally welcomed out of the house.

After seeing Chen Deng, Cao Cao looked at him carefully, and saw that he had a wide face of light gold, eyebrows like ink, a nose like a hanging gall, a wide forehead and a wide mouth, and a very handsome face, but Cao Cao found that Chen Deng's eyes flashed with a fine light, and it seemed to have a trace of unruly ferocity.

Cao Cao has read countless people in his life, and he is quite knowledgeable, and at a glance he knows that Chen Deng has great ambitions and great ambitions.

What this kind of person wants most is not just to work for others, but to have a big stage where they can display their talents to the fullest.

Cao Cao was full of smiles, not close to fake relatives, not close to fake close, "Yuanlong, you are up this time, don't you want to ask for the position of Xuzhou pastor for Lu Bu, right?" ”

Chen Deng shook his head, "It's no secret that Lu Bu wants the position of Xuzhou pastor, yes, this time he asked me to come to Xudu in order to do this, but in my opinion, Cao Gong will never agree." ”

"Oh?"

This confused Cao Cao, and when he saw Chen Deng mention Lu Bu, he gritted his teeth and glared, as if he had some deep hatred, Cao Cao felt very surprised in his heart.
