In the Xuzhou Prefecture, Cao Cao, the king of the Han Dynasty, had a terrible headache, and he couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the dozens of his subordinates who had become sparse.

How glorious was the past? The generals are like clouds, the ministers are like rain, sitting on the world's best place, and millions of troops are often dispatched.

Now, he is a veritable Xuzhou pastor, the so-called King of Wei, but he has an empty name.

A heavy snowfall that had not been seen in a hundred years saved Cao Cao, and Lü Peng's northern snow was knee-thick, cutting off the army's movement and ordnance transportation, so the imposing Lü family army could only stop attacking.

Cao Cao, who had no pressure, still had palpitations in his heart.

This is still secondary, the main thing is that now I want to surrender, and I don't know who to surrender to.

Surrender to the imperial court? Thinking about the misery he had forced Emperor Han Xian to be, he said that he would not let himself surrender if he said anything.

Surrender Lu Peng? Lu Peng is determined to unify the Central Plains, how can he tolerate his own existence? Zhang Lu and Han Sui could, because they no longer posed a threat to Lu Peng, and Cao Cao definitely couldn't.

Even if Lu Peng agrees to surrender and give himself a rich man, will he be willing?

Surrender to Sun Quan, don't even think about it, how can you be at the mercy of a yellow-mouthed child? Besides, once he is finished, Sun Quan still wants to be alone? He thought it was beautiful. Lu Peng will be the first to take him under the knife, and after taking Jiangdong into his own hands, Lu Peng will face his old boss Liu Bei.

At this time, Sima Yi's proposal arrived, which made Cao Cao suddenly brightened, and in front of his eyes, a bright path was opened again.

Even Liu Zhan Sun, taking advantage of this winter, to make a last stand.

Convened a meeting of the civil and military forces again to discuss Sima Yi's strategy and decide the general direction.

"Zhong Da came to the book, and offered a strategy, that is, even Liu to destroy the grandson, and then we occupy the magpie's nest, obtain Jiangnan, and Lu Peng row the river and rule, and then try to rise up, what do you think?" Cao Cao sat upright, endured his headache, and asked his subordinates about the feasibility of this strategy.

Xun Yu stood up and said: "It is indeed a way to destroy Dongwu, take Dongwu as the foundation, and divide the river to rule, but why should we connect Liu?" As long as Liu Bei doesn't get involved, we can do it independently. ”

Chen Qun stood up and said, "Also, when we fight Jiangdong again, what should we do if Lu Peng kills us in the back?" You must know that Lu Peng and Sun Quan have a sense of righteousness, and the Yangtze River alliance is here. ”

Xu You asked: "This is a way, but how to get Liu Bei's support?" ”

This is very critical, just now Sun and Liu united, and beat himself to the head of the rat, but in the blink of an eye, Liu killed Sun again, this is simply child's play, there is no huge benefit to Liu Bei, Liu Bei will not help to do it.

These things are all in front of everyone, no matter how you look at it, it is a difficult problem to solve, so Sima Yi's strategy is a piece of nonsense, and there is no operability at all.

At this time, a sneer sounded in the hall, and everyone looked at it, but it was a weak-crowned child, everyone knew him, it was Sima Yi's son, Sima Shi. He had come here in place of his father.

When Cao Cao saw Sima Shi sneering, he smiled and beckoned: "Ziyuan come and sit with me." ”

Now Sima Yi is the only handsome talent under Cao Cao who can stand alone, Cao Wei Jiangshan almost relies on him to support one side, so Cao Cao is also very good to Sima Yi, loves the house and Wu, and of course looks at his son differently.

Sima Shi gave Cao Cao a salute, and then walked to Cao Cao's side like a little adult, and sat directly in the position where his father should be sitting.

Cao Cao was very satisfied with this child's state: "Hahaha, my Cao Wei has another unicorn, come on, tell me why you laugh at your uncle?" ”

Sima Shi gave you his hand indifferently, and then began to talk eloquently. "What you're worried about is actually not the key thing, let the kid try to say a thing or two."

"Let's start with Lian Liu, the last time we marched into Jiangdong and were defeated in Chibi, the reason is that we don't have a real sailor in our hands, we don't have a commander of the sailor, with our shortcomings, kill Sun Quan's strength, and then have Liu Bei's army help, so we failed, and this time we united with Liu Bei, that is, we want to use Liu Bei's naval army."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Liu Bei took Jingzhou, and began to build a sailor, for which he did not hesitate to borrow Yizhou Ba County from Lu Peng, in order to obtain the wood for Yizhou to build boats, now Liu Bei's naval army has a considerable scale, in the naval army Governor Wu Ban Chen style day and night exercises, has a considerable combat effectiveness, this is after the battle of Chibi, Zhuge Liang took advantage of the foundation of the East Wu Lujiang Jiujiang, if there is no strong naval army, these two counties can not be mastered.

"And to say that Liu Bei has just finished uniting with Sun Quan, so he can't unite with us, that's just a joke."

Cao Cao smiled and asked, "Why do you say that?" ”

Sima Shi said bluntly: "Liu Bei, loyal and benevolent on the outside, greedy and cunning on the inside, when he first threw himself into the Bohai Sea Kongrong, he occupied other people's land. Invest in Xuzhou, count Xuzhou. Cast Yuan Shao, pull someone and run. In Jingzhou, Jingzhou was directly drawn over, and Liu Qi's death is not clear, isn't it an example? And Sun Liu united, and took the opportunity to occupy Jiujiang Luzhou, how can such a person be benevolent and righteous? interests, as long as we give him benefits, he will inevitably become enemies with Sun Quan. ”

Yes, the analysis is too right, in the face of such Liu Bei's nature, in fact, Cao Cao is ashamed of himself, but that guy will pretend, people are so black, and as a result, the name of benevolence in the world is in hand, and he really didn't betray anyone, but now he can't get rid of the title of a traitorous male, this is really more popular than people.

"Now that Liu Bei occupies the two counties of Jiangdong, and the Sun-Liu alliance has broken down, as long as we give Liu Bei another benefit, then Liu Bei will definitely help us take Jiangdong and achieve our strategic goals."

With such a simple analysis, everyone immediately felt that their horizons were wide, but then they felt powerless, because if they wanted to impress Liu Bei, the benefits given must not be small, so what else did they have in their hands? What to give Liu Bei to impress him?

At this time, Sima Shi stood up, gave Cao Cao a deep salute, and then stared at him and said no more.

Cao Cao also shut up, his heart was a tangled toss of turning the river and the sea, and then suddenly stood up: "Mr. Xun Yu immediately sent Liu Bei, saying that I am willing to unite with him, and ask him to send a naval army to help me destroy Sun Quan, my condition is - I will leave Zang Ba in Mount Tai to block Lu Peng for him first, and then he will send troops to the navy, I will withdraw from Xuzhou and give Xuzhou to him." ”

This is the big hero, this is the real hero who can afford to let go.
