The strife in the world has risen, heroes from all walks of life have risen together, and all of them have a great ambition, starting with the crusade of the princes of Yuan Shao's eighteenth road against Dong Zhuo, and ending with Cao Cao's killing of Lu Bu, this is a stage, a stage that is still a gentleman.

After all, the princes of Zhulu still maintain a polite gentleman's style, everyone can fight to the death, but no matter who is defeated, as long as they admit defeat, the victor will let the other party go, which is the same as the warlord war in the Republic of China in later generations.

As for you surrendering to me, I will also give you an official position that you are satisfied with, and I will support you, and we will continue to live together as brothers.

But since Cao Cao set a precedent and killed the opponent hero Lu Bu, this rule was broken, and since then, the warlords of the late Han Dynasty have attacked each other, and it is a life-and-death battle between the white knife and the red knife out. There are only two possibilities for the loser, either to commit suicide with dignity or to be killed in humiliation.

The reason why Yuan Shao was not killed by Cao Cao this time was because he also wanted to rely on the measure of treating Yuan Shao well to collect Yuan Shao's old departments in Yizhou, so as to stabilize the two states as soon as possible and block Lu Peng's way out.

As a result, people are not as good as heaven, and he and Yuan Shao hurt each other here, but Lu Peng jumped out and directly swallowed the two states with the momentum of sweeping thousands of armies.

In this way, the current result is that Lu Peng occupies Yizhou, and all of the state, most of Youzhou, and a huge grassland with strategic depth and money, grain, and war horses.

If calculated according to the area occupied, Lu Peng's land area is already equivalent to the original Han area, but what about the resources in Lu Peng's hands? That's even more terrifying.

Youzhou's iron and steel occupies the absolute majority of the Han Dynasty, the cattle and sheep of Youzhou occupy the majority of the entire Han Dynasty, and the salt of Youzhou has completely stuck the entire north, part of the south, most of the West, the lifeblood of the entire vast grassland, and the industrial products of Youzhou almost include the output of the entire Han Dynasty.

And the most important thing is that no matter where the Han is, they are spending Lu Peng's money, this is the most fatal fact, now don't want anything else, as long as Lu Peng is not issuing steel coins, there will be a money shortage in the world immediately, the people can only barter, officials can only receive rice and grain on a monthly basis, and they are thinking about living a luxurious life, which is simply wishful thinking, and everyone can only return to the evil flood era together.

Of course, you can also recreate the numismatic system - you are talking about lightness, a perfect monetary system, is it so easy to say, build it when it is built? When you rebuild it, improve the monetary system, and be recognized by the world, it is really in response to Lu Peng's words, even the hot dog is cold.

And now what about Cao Cao himself here? Occupy Sili, Yuzhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, it seems that the jurisdiction is not small.

But a closer look at the map shows that the situation is frustrating.

Cao Cao's own position, there is Lu Peng in the north, there is Xiliang who is constantly rebelling in the west, Liu Zhang, the son of Liu Yu who is not subject to control, Liu Biao Liu Bei in the south, who has always been advertised as a servant of Han orthodoxy, and further southeast, is the ambitious Sun Ce, fortunately, Sun Ce is dead, and his son Sun Quan is on the throne, so he should not pose much threat to himself for the time being.

But no matter what, Cao Cao is really embattled now.

Lu Peng faced only one, that is Cao Cao, he occupies the initiative on the battlefield, he wants to fight, then Cao Cao has to grit his teeth to accompany him, he doesn't want to fight, he can shrink up and develop in a muffled voice.

And every time Lu Peng shrank up and developed, he attacked strongly, the first time was when Yuyang drove Zhang Chun's rebellion, the second time was to directly enter Wuhuan, the third time was to compete with Yuan Shao, and the fourth time, he simply took down Yizhou directly, if he attacked again next time, there was only one opponent in the vast expanse - Cao Cao.

That's a fatal outcome. Now Cao Cao's thinking about dealing with Liu Bei and then dealing with Lu Peng began to waver.

Xi Zhicai stood up at this time and agreed with Xun Yu's point of view: "Lord, Lu Peng, the great enemy, Liu Bei is also ringworm scabies, ringworm scabies is just itchy, scratching it will be solved, the enemy must be treated with all his might, otherwise he will lose his life." ”

Cheng Yu stood up and shook his head to deny Xi Zhicai's statement: "Mr. Changwen is fallacious, the disease of ringworm scabies, it was just itching at first, and scratching was enough, but he can distract us at all times, so that we can't concentrate on the enemy, especially this disease is like a maggot attached to the bone, which will not fall off for life, it is really immortal, but disgusting." ”

This metaphor is very vivid, and Cao Cao, who is extremely heavy, can't help but be amused by Cheng Yu, and now Liu Bei is like a maggot with bones to Cao Cao, immortal, but disgusting.

This statement is also true, this thing has a criminal record, just a few years ago when he and Yuan Shao were fighting, Liu Bei suddenly went out of Xu Du, to rob the Han Xian Emperor, forced himself to have no choice, had to draw out his troops, personally conscripted Liu Bei, although he defeated him, but he got Liu Biao's protection, and now in Xinye, it is extremely nourishing.

"Now Liu Bei, if we go to attack Lu Peng, that guy will definitely come out again to make waves, pull our hind legs, and let us have to divide our energy to deal with him, so we can achieve the results we want?" Then concluded: "Therefore, while Liu Bei has not yet risen, when he is weak, with the least cost, first eliminate him, and then we can concentrate on dealing with Lu Peng, or attack, or defending, at that time, we can advance and retreat freely, and be at ease." ”

Jia Xu affirmed again: "And once we and Lu Peng are in a stalemate, and as a result, Liu Bei becomes bigger, we will face two powerful enemies, and at that time, we will be completely in danger." ”

This hypothetical situation that Jia Xu said is definitely the most likely, once such a situation appears, then Cao Cao will face an unfavorable situation of two against one, if Sun Quan joins in again, and the restless Ma Teng is also on it, it will be the end of a circle kick, at that time, the fall of his own group will not be far away.

At this time, Cao Cao once again shook the inclined heavenly scale to the position of first Liu and then Lu. In the face of conclusive facts, all civil and military forces can only accept the policy of first the south and then the north, and the easy and then the difficult.

"But the Komeito Department is in an emergency, how can we not save it?" At this time, Cao Cao raised another question: "There is another point, Lu Peng and Liu Bei have had a relationship before, and the relationship is also deep, once we go south to deal with Liu Bei, will Lu Peng stab us in the back and come to a north-south strategy?" ”
