Chapter 1335: United
Cao Cao's eyes tightened, and he was not surprised that the strategists under Lu Bu saw through his thoughts, if the strategists under Lu Bu didn't even have this kind of vision, it would be a strange thing.
"However, since the Marquis of Jin chose to form an alliance with the Marquis of Shanyang, the two sides will not attack each other before the alliance is dissolved, in fact, among the princes, only the Marquis of Shanyang is the only one who really respects the Marquis of Jin, and the rest of the people are not to worry." Li Su said.
Cao Cao was quite helpful after hearing this, his eyes narrowed slightly, obviously agreeing with Lu Bu's statement.
"The Marquis of Jin learned that the Marquis of Shanyang lacked war horses, but he was willing to sell some war horses to the Marquis of Shanyang." Li Su said, it is impossible for Cao Cao to get the secret things of the state, but there is no shortage of war horses and states, with the Xianbei people, Wuhuan people and Huns on the grassland as support, Lu Bu is much easier to obtain war horses, and the profits that can be obtained by relying on war horses are also huge.
"Sell War Horses? Hmph, don't you still want to get benefits from us, in this way, the alliance with the Marquis of Jin can still get a lot of benefits, and the Marquis of Jin is easy to calculate. Xun Yu snorted coldly.
Li Su said with a smile: "The war horses mentioned below are naturally different from those sold to merchants. ”
"Can it be the war horse of the cavalry under the command of the Marquis of Jin?" Cao Cao's eyes flashed with a fine light, the reason why Lu Bu is strong is because of the cavalry, although a lot of war horses have been sold from Lu Bu over the years, but there is still a big gap between these war horses and the quality of the war horses of the cavalry under Lu Bu, on the battlefield, any defect may lead to a defeat.
"It's not close, even if it doesn't." Li Su said that he believed that Cao Cao would not be able to resist the temptation of the war horse, and the same thing would be done with other princes.
"Ben Hou needs a blade made of 100 steels, I don't know what Jin Hou means?" Cao Cao Dao, getting the blade forged by hundreds of steels was of great help to Cao Jun at this time.
Li Su pondered for a long time and said: "The Marquis of Shanyang also knows that it is extremely difficult to build a hundred refining steel blades, even under the command of the Marquis of Jin, it is not easy to have a hundred refining blades. ”
Seeing Li Su talking eloquently, Cao Cao had an urge to strangle Li Su to death, obviously trapped in the camp, wolf cavalry, flying cavalry, and scorching sun bow cavalry, the blades used by ordinary soldiers were all forged from 100 steel, but in Li Su's mouth, it became like this, if Li Su did not understand the situation in the army, it would definitely be impossible.
"However, if the Marquis of Shanyang needs it, the Marquis of Jin will definitely not refuse, provided that the two sides become allies who do not attack each other." Li Su said.
Cao Cao weighed it and agreed, his own alliance with Lu Bu was what he needed, and neither side wanted the other side to suddenly attack from behind when the war started, just like when Lu Bu attacked Yizhou, Yuan Shao attacked Jizhou.
After some bargaining, the price of a fine war horse was finally set at 7,000 yuan a piece, and an ordinary war horse was 4,000 yuan a piece.
The price of the blade of 100 steel-made is calculated according to the weight, and the price of the ring-headed knife used by ordinary soldiers is about 3,000 yuan, while the long knife and spear used by the general are much more expensive in price
Cao Cao's command is not without a blade made of 100 steel, but the cost of craftsmen to create 100 steels is too large, more often by luck, the general general is not a 100 steel blades, at this point, Cao Cao has to admire the ability of the craftsmen under Lu Bu, although the price of 3,000 yuan is expensive, it can be equipped into the army, which is of great help to the improvement of the combat effectiveness of the soldiers.
"Before leaving, the Marquis of Jin specially instructed that in order to show his sincerity, the Marquis of Jin is willing to give away fifty blades made of 100 steels." Li Su said.
Cao Cao smiled slightly, the value of fifty blades reached 150,000 yuan, but it also showed Lu Bu's attitude.
The envoy rested in the city for a few days, and although Yanzhou was not as good as Jinyang and today's Chang'an, it was not bad.
"Thank you Shanyang Hou for your kindness, Jin Hou is still waiting for a reply from below, and now the war in Jizhou is urgent, presumably Shanyang Hou has also heard of it." Li Su excused himself.
"In this way, Ben Hou will not be reluctant." Cao Cao laughed.
After getting Cao Cao's promise, Lu Bu was even more relieved to mobilize his troops, but it was necessary for Chang'an to stay with 20,000 troops, and it was indispensable to defend against people, Cao Cao was not a good man and a woman.
The turmoil in Jizhou is far from stopping, Yuan Shao led an army of 50,000 troops, stationed in Qinghe, and has the heart to attack Jizhou, from Ganling to Yecheng, but the distance of three days, with the speed of cavalry, it does not need to be reached in a day, and there are naturally not a few families in the city who support Yuan Shao.
When Lu Bu entered Jizhou, they realized what a happy thing it was to be under Yuan Shao's rule, and the family had a deep understanding of this.
Jizhou is in turmoil, Yuan Shao is even more in full swing and secretly preparing, he needs the support of the Yecheng family, otherwise it is impossible to break through Yecheng with 30,000 troops just by relying on 50,000 troops, and the reason why Lu Bu was able to break through Yecheng was also under the strategy of Xu You and Zhang He.
Of course, after the events of Qinghe County and Bohai County, Gu Yong must have a deeper defense against the family, when they seized Jizhou in this way, they naturally did not want to lose in this method, and Lu Bu has always had a deep fear of the family.
Among the Flying Eagle soldiers, half of them are in Yecheng, secretly exploring the family's movements, and there is still a big gap in the control of Jizhou's intelligence compared to the state, and the family is extremely cautious, and it is not easy to find their handle.
Yuan Shao had a faint sense of anxiety, especially after Lu Bu withdrew from Yizhou, this anxiety was even deeper, he was sure that Lu Bu would not sit idly by and watch him lead his troops to attack Jizhou, the most critical person at this time was Cao Cao's attitude, if Cao Cao supported him, the possibility of capturing Jizhou would be much greater, otherwise, it would be extremely difficult.
The frequent mobilization of the army under Lu Bu made Yuan Shao have to speed up the process.
"Yuan Tu, how are the families in Yecheng contacting now?" Yuan Shao asked, after the matter was not settled, he had no intention of leading the troops to Yecheng.
Feng Ji said: "Lord, now there is a rumor in Yecheng, Gu Yong's defense of the family is extremely strict, the slightest disturbance may attract soldiers, and now there are already two small families in the city who are unlucky because of this, but there are already four families in Yecheng who are willing to help the lord seize Yecheng, if the four families operate properly, it is very likely to succeed." ”
