Chapter 388: Meng Jie, let's stand in line

"I plan to give up the land of the nine counties of Qingzhou to Qin Ye." Cao Cao looked at his subordinates and said.

Guo Jia and Xiahoudun thought of the need for conditions, but they didn't expect to give so much.

It's really bleeding.

Cao Cao at this moment is very decisive.

Lu Bu and Yuan Shu united, and they couldn't just see these two enemies.

Since LΓΌ Bu had gained control of the banks of the Yellow River, Yuan Shao's army was able to descend the river and enter Yanzhou.

Let's not talk about whether Cao Cao can resist Lu Bu and Yuan Shu alone, if Yuan Shao participates, then Cao Cao may launch a stage for dominating the world.

Subsequently, Cao Cao secretly vomited blood.

He thought that he couldn't get Qingzhou, and he was completely cheated by Qin Ye. Now I still have to give Qin Ye territory, and I have to beg Qin Ye, maybe people will not agree.

The face is swollen and you have to beg, which is too difficult for a hero.

However, Boss Cao is definitely not very comparable, so he made a decision immediately and immediately went to find Qin Ye.

……

Jinan City.

At this time, Qin Ye also got the news brought back by the Yanzhou agents.

Chen Gong and Zhang Miao sacrificed Yanzhou, if it weren't for Cheng Yu Xunyu to defend Chen Liu, I am afraid that the entire Yanzhou region would have been occupied by Lu Bu now.

Moreover, Lu Bu has formed an alliance with Yuan Shu.

"Is the Central Plains about to undergo a great change?" Qin Ye's voice did not fall.

Dian Wei came in, "Lord, Cao Cao has come outside the city and asked to see him." ”

Qin Ye asked Zhao Yun to greet Cao Cao.

Cao Cao entered the conference hall, depressed and embarrassed, "Brother Xian, I have something to ask for my brother." ”

"Brother Mengde, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

Cao Cao said: "The news from Yanzhou that Lu Bu has seized my Yanzhou East County and other places. ”

Qin Ye's expression was calm, "Lu Bu is far away from Yuan Shao, and there are only one or two thousand soldiers and horses around him, how can he capture Yanzhou?" ”

Speaking of this, Cao Cao vomited blood.

If it weren't for the help of Zhang Miao, the representative of the Gunzhou Shi clan, Lu Bu would have been able to capture Dongjun?

And it is said that it was Zhang Miao named Chen Gong who helped Lu Bu contact him.

Chen Gong.

When he heard the name, Cao Cao drew it.

And Cao Cao knew that this was by no means Zhang Miao's move alone, but involved the scholars of Yanzhou.

Since Cao Cao got Yanzhou, he encouraged production and settled the people, which touched the interests of the scholars. But Cao Cao himself was born in the scholar clan, so he left a lot of affection and did not move the scholar clan much. Now it seems that it has suffered a big loss.

It seems that the scholars want to change an agent and pull Cao Cao off his horse.

Cao Cao revealed this problem and said that he hoped to reach an alliance at the cost of the land of nine counties.

Qin Ye was silent for a while.

Cao Cao's heart was full of things, he had already given Qin Ye conditions as much as possible, hoping to impress this prince through sincerity.

It wasn't until Qin Ye agreed to send troops to help that Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother Xian, I owe you a favor."

A character like Cao Cao can say something indebted, and it seems that he is truly grateful.

Guo Jia and the others were finally relieved, and they followed.

Sima Yi came out and said: "Lord, Cao Cao is already in his last years, why not wait and see what happens." At that time, only one elite division was needed to subdue Yanzhou. ”

This was the beginning of dominating the Central Plains.

Qin Ye waved his hand slightly, and said to everyone, "If Lu Bu gets Yanzhou and forms an alliance with Yuan Shu, he will be able to connect with Yuan Shao again, which is very unfavorable to me." ”

If Qin Ye also overthrows Cao Cao at this time, then it will inevitably lead to Lu Bu, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and even Gongsun Zan in the North.

And although Qin Ye already has the land of two states, it is surrounded by hostile forces. Lu Bu, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Gongsun Zan are not to be underestimated.

plus he has to fight against Cao Cao.

All of them are enemies.

Only by unifying the northern land can we enter the Central Plains.

This is a big strategy, and we can't take into account the small gains and losses of the moment.

Therefore, Cao Cao is also needed to fight in the Central Plains to attract the attention of all parties and consume each other's strength.

So Qin Ye decided to help Cao Cao.

…………

Puyang, East County.

Although LΓΌ Bu obtained the Yanzhou region, after accepting the local arms, the number of troops also reached 30,000.

And, Yuan Shu agreed to form an alliance.

This made Lu Bu, who had just won Yanzhou, have a strong foreign aid and become more stable.

Therefore, Lu Bu is full of spirit and is different from the past.

this day.

LΓΌ Bu got the news that Cao Cao had invited Qin Ye to come with him to fight him.

After he got Yanzhou, he had long expected a battle with Cao Cao, and he was not afraid. But Cao Cao had a strong foreign aid, which made Lu Bu very worried, and immediately invited Chen Gong and Zhang Miao to discuss.

"Cao Cao, please move Qin Ye to help!" After Zhang Miao heard the news, he couldn't sit still at that time.

This is completely incompatible with the previous considerations.

You must know that Cao Cao was under the city of Jinan before, and Lu Bu captured Yanzhou here, cutting off all ties between Cao Cao and his territory.

If Cao Cao wants to go home, he has to go from Lu Bu's territory, and it is very simple to eliminate such a lone army. Even if it is not an attack, just a siege, it can consume Cao Cao.

But with Qin Ye's help, Cao Cao was not alone.

Coupled with Qin Ye's strong strength, this made Zhang Miao very worried.

"Don't worry." Chen Gongjin said: "You can ask Yuan Shu to help, our army can temporarily take a defensive position and block Cao Cao's return to Xuchang." He is away all the year round, this is exile, and he will definitely be defeated. ”

Chen Gong also knew that when LΓΌ Bu first came to Yanzhou, it was impossible to withstand Cao Cao's counterattack, so he proposed to unite with Yuan Shu.

The price of the covenant was that after LΓΌ Bu stabilized Yanzhou, he would help Yuan Shu capture Yuzhou.

He also said: "You can let the envoy tell Yuan Shu that he only needs to block the combined army of Cao Cao and Qin Ye, and at that time, the Cao army in Yuzhou will be disheartened, and Yuzhou will be at his fingertips." ”

"Who can be a messenger?" Lu Bu asked.

Chen Gong looked at Zhang Miao, "Lord Zhang can be the messenger." ”

Zhang Miao is also an old qualification in the imperial court, and he was very familiar with Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu in his early years.

So, Zhang Miao, as a messenger, quickly went to Shouchun.

Shouchun City.

This is the most prosperous city in Yangzhou.

Huainan, where Shouchun is located, is currently the most densely populated and wealthy area in the world.

There is enough money and food, many soldiers and generals, and more than 200,000 armor.

It is the capital of Yuan Shu to dominate the world.

On this day, Yuan Shu was in the mansion, feasting the people and entertaining them.

The hall is full of young girls in the flower season, with luxurious skirts, gem-inlays, twisting their waists and dancing, which is dizzying and salivating.

Interval.

Strategist Yan Xiang couldn't help but ask, "Lord, when will we move troops against Yuzhou?" ”

Everyone looked over, and they knew in their hearts that the alliance between the Lord and Lu Bu was to seize Yuzhou.

Yuan Shu's eyes were only on the buttocks, and when he heard this, he said: "When Lu Bu and Cao Cao fought, it was when we used our troops. ”

Ji Ling and the others still pay more attention to the future war.

After hearing this, think about it carefully. Don't look at the lord's daily drinking and fun, it seems that this is a confident performance. Cao Cao and Lu Bu fought, then they would have no worries.

Cao Cao's elite army was isolated from the territory, and it was easy to seize such a territory.

"My lord, Lu Bu's envoy Zhang Miao asks to see you."

Yuan Shu had no choice but to withdraw the singing and dancing, and everyone sat down again.

After a while, Zhang Miao arrived.

"Brother Highway, the combined forces of Cao Cao and Qin Ye are already approaching my Yanzhou. General Lu asked me to come and ask Brother Highway to send troops to help. "Zhang Miao and Yuan Shu are old acquaintances.

"Qin Ye?" Yuan Shu frowned, and immediately slapped the table, "You go back and tell Wen Hou, I will immediately send troops to help." ”

After sending Zhang Miao away.

Yan Xiang said cautiously: "I didn't expect Qin Ye to help Cao Cao, the lord must not be careless." ”

Yuan Shu was very confident, "Cao Cao and Qin Ye are only 50,000 or 60,000 people, and our army has more than 200,000 armor, and the soldiers are full of food, so why are you afraid?" ”

Ji Ling came out of the class and said: "Lord, the last general is willing to lead the army forward." ”

"Okay, I'll give you 100,000 soldiers and horses to help Lu Bu. I will mention another 100,000 troops here to attack Yuzhou. Yuan Shu got up and said proudly.

"General Ji Ling, wait a minute." Yan Xiang stopped Ji Ling, who was leaving, and said, "Lord, I have a plan." Qin Ye, Cao Cao and others were very anxious to rescue the baggage, and if they took their baggage, they could defeat their army without a fight. ”

Yuan Shu's eyes lit up, "This plan is very good. ”

So he said to Ji Ling again: "You and Zhang Xun, Chen Lan, Qiao Rui, Le and others will go, and after intercepting the enemy's grain and grass, they will immediately return to join me and attack Yuzhou together." ”

In Yuan Shu's view, after intercepting the grain and grass, he had fulfilled his responsibilities as an ally. Qin Ye and Cao Cao, who had lost their grain and grass, could no longer be Lu Bu's opponents.

Then of course he has to mobilize all his forces to seize his own Yuzhou.

"Whoa!" All the civil and military officers got up excitedly.

It seems that this strategy has won the hearts of the people.
