At this moment, all the princes of the world were stupid, almost all of them received an urgent letter of 800 miles, and they knew that the New Han Dynasty held a ceremony to worship the heavens, and the New Han Army swore to go out ceremony, and the New Han Dynasty officially announced that it would send troops to fight the world.

At that moment, no matter which one of the princes, they all stopped all their actions, and in a panic and anxiously gathered their generals and ministers to gather for discussion.

The first to get the news was naturally Cao Cao.

Cao Cao originally planned to completely kill Liu Bei, who was like he couldn't kill Xiaoqiang, in one go, but he really couldn't stand the disgust that Liu Bei gave him. He planned to tighten his belt and squeeze out a little more military rations for his military horses to use to pursue Liu Bei all the way. He also planned to send an envoy to negotiate with Liu Biao, intending to intimidate Liu Biao so that he would not dare to shelter Liu Bei.

However, at this moment, he received the news that Liu Yi of the New Han Dynasty was going to send troops to fight the world, he couldn't help but panic, quickly stopped the attack on Liu Bei, and quickly led the army back to Xudu, and convened the ministers to discuss countermeasures.

In this way, Liu Bei had not replied to Liu Bei, and was still hesitating whether to accept Liu Bei's Liu Biao, but when he saw Cao Cao retreating from the army, he agreed to Liu Bei and let Liu Bei be stationed in Xinye City for the time being.

Well, let's not talk about Liu Biao, let's talk about Cao Cao, in his heart, he had already guessed that Liu Yi was very likely to send troops to attack the world, and even the timing of Liu Yi's troops, he also guessed about the same. He had long had doubts, thinking that Liu Yi would take action immediately after he and Yuan Shao decided the winner. It's just that he's now. has made the preparations that can be made, even if Liu Yi really wants to send troops to him, he has no choice.

Cao Cao now. In small-scale wars, he barely managed to sustain it, for example, mobilizing 100,000 or 200,000 military horses to attack Liu Bei. However, if he really wanted to launch another big war like the previous battle with Yuan Shao, and hundreds of thousands of military horses mobilized to fight together, he really had no way to support it anymore.

So. He could only transfer the army to Chenliu and confront the Xinhan army at Bishui Pass, posing as if he was ready to go to war with Liu Yi. But. If the army of the New Han Dynasty really wanted to go out of the Tiger Prison and Bishui Pass and attack his territory, Cao Cao had no choice, and he could support it for as long as he could. If defeated. Cao Cao knew that he himself would be finished.

Before. The reason why he personally led the army to attack Liu Bei was actually a little tricky, he wanted to show Liu Yi of the New Han Dynasty, he was not worried about the attack of the New Han Dynasty, and in addition to resisting the enemy of the New Han Dynasty, he still had the strength to calm down the remnants of his internal strength. At least, Cao Cao wanted to vaguely express such a meaning to the world.

But. When this matter came to an end, Liu Yi of the New Han Dynasty really sent troops to fight for the world. Cao Cao's heart was really a little panicked, he was not very reconciled, and he didn't want his efforts over the years to disappear under Liu Yi's attack. Second, no matter what, he didn't want to sit still like this, thinking about finding a way to preserve his power, no matter what, he wanted to fight the New Han Dynasty to the end. Even, he still wanted to reconcile with Yuan Shaoyan, who had just fought a big battle, and wanted to form an alliance with Yuan Shao to resist the New Han Dynasty.

The situation at this moment is actually somewhat similar to the situation when Great Qin unified the world. At the beginning, the Great Qin family was dominant and aggressive, and it was no secret that Great Qin wanted to unify the world, and the other six countries in the world, since the Qin State was dug up, have always been busy around the matter of vertical and horizontal. Subconsciously, the six countries of the world all thought that only by uniting together could they possibly fight against the powerful Qin State.

However, in the end, the six kingdoms of the world divided and merged for their own interests, and were finally defeated by the Qin State one by one and unified the world.

At present, the Han Dynasty is divided, and the princes dominate all sides. After each prince received an urgent letter of eight hundred miles, the first time they thought was to unite against the New Han Dynasty.

Cao Cao was unwilling to be destroyed by the New Han Dynasty, so he also had this idea.

He convened the ministers to discuss whether they could unite all the princes of the world to confront the New Han Dynasty under their current situation.

In the court, except for a few strategists and generals who seem to be confident, most of the courtiers are like the end is coming, and everyone's faces are a little panicked, and they all look like they have no master.

After all, the shadow of the famous tree, Liu Yi of the New Han Dynasty, is definitely not comparable to Yuan Shao or Yuan Shu and other princes, not to mention that Liu Yi himself is invincible in the world, even if it is the New Han Army, they are also discolored. Since the formation of the New Han Army, how have you ever heard of the defeat of the New Han Army? It has always been invincible, and even the murderous Huns have been exterminated by the New Han Army, and they ask themselves whether their army is the opponent of the New Han Army?

For a time, there were many discussions in the court, and there were all kinds of opinions, and some even proposed to surrender to the new Han Dynasty, so that the two courts could become one, and they were now taking the initiative, perhaps, seeing that everyone was the same clan and were all Han Chen, they might be able to keep everything they have now, including their official positions.

Cao Cao looked at the courtiers' discussions coldly and did not say a word. Of course, Cao Cao's heart was also a little cold, because of so many courtiers, none of them proposed to confront the New Han Dynasty to the end.

They proposed to move the capital to Xuzhou or Yangzhou. There were also proposals to send additional troops to prevent the New Han army from leaving the customs, and so on.

Bumper Bumper!

Cao Cao waited for a group of courtiers, and after a panicked discussion, he slapped the dragon case hard, startling the emperor with a complicated expression on the throne.

When Emperor Xian heard the news that the New Han Dynasty had sent troops to fight for the world, he was a little expectant, a little excited, and a little worried. After all, he is fed up now, and he can't wait to end the life of this puppet emperor as soon as possible, if the New Han Dynasty really sends troops, then it means that Liu Yi will definitely come to save him. So, he's a little excited and looking forward to it. However, he was worried about whether Liu Yi would be able to defeat Cao Cao, who had replaced Dong Zhuo and became the most feared villain in his heart. He was worried that even if Liu Yi hit Xu Dulai, he might not be able to save him.

Cao Cao's face was awe-inspiring, and he didn't pay attention to Emperor Xian, who was startled by him, and patted the table and said angrily: "Silence! The Prime Minister did not summon you here to discuss the issue of surrender or relocation of the capital. If you want to surrender and move the capital, do you need to let Er and others negotiate it? So booing and coaxing, like a busy city, what kind of system has it become? In case of panic, how can the imperial court rely on your governance in the future? ”

"Prime Minister......

Cao Cao's anger really frightened many courtiers into weakness and fell to their knees.

"Humph!" Cao Cao snorted coldly and said, "What are you panicking about? The New Han Dynasty sent troops to fight for the world, and for the time being, it has not yet hit our Xu Capital, I asked you to come, how to deal with this crisis, not to let you pour cold water. ”

"Thinking of me Cao Cao, when he started an army to fight against Dong Zhuo, in order to let the people of the Han world no longer suffer from the war, Cao worked hard to welcome back Emperor Xian and set up a court, so to speak, this court has exhausted Cao's hard work, how can it be given to Liu Yi because of a word? Therefore, from now on, we can only discuss how to fight against the New Han Army, if anyone dares to discuss surrendering and moving the capital, then don't blame me Cao for being ruthless! ”

The Manchu Dynasty was silent, and did not dare to express its opinions indiscriminately.

"My lord, now that our imperial court and treasury are empty, we can no longer support our military horses to fight against the New Han Dynasty, so the confrontation is necessary, but ...... How to fight, but we have to pay attention to some strategies. At this time, Xun Yu spoke.

"Well, Mr. Xun, what do you think?" Cao Cao saw that it was Xun You who spoke, his expression softened slightly, and he looked at him and said.

The news that the New Han Dynasty announced that it would officially send troops to fight the world, and there is no news that the New Han Dynasty will send troops to attack first, these are all military secrets of the New Han Dynasty. Even if Liu Yi is in the court, he has decided that he will not use troops against Cao Cao, Liu Biao and other powerful forces, but he will not announce it and tell them who I want to fight first. If you really say that, you're really stupid.

Therefore, now, although the princes of the world know that the New Han Dynasty will officially send troops to fight the world, how it will begin, the princes of the world do not know for the time being.

Of course, maybe in another two or three days, the spies they sent to the New Han Dynasty might find out what the movements of the New Han Army were, but for the time being, the princes of the world would still not know the movements of the New Han Army. Now, the New Han Army has just begun to cross the Yellow River north into Bingzhou, and the news of Gongsun Zhan's defection to the New Han Dynasty has not yet reached their ears, so they can only guess whose territory the New Han Army will attack first.

Xun You thought for a while and said, "My lord, we have sent a large army to confront the pass of the New Han Dynasty. Even if the New Han Dynasty wants to send troops to attack us, we can resist for a while, so don't be too nervous for the time being. The key is how we are going to collect food now. As long as there is food, if the new Han Dynasty really begins, we will not be without the strength to fight. ”

"Levy food? How is this levy? Cao Cao shook his head and said: "In the previous battle with Yuan Shao, we continuously collected a lot of money and grain from the people, and now we collect it from the people?" Isn't this tantamount to plundering the people's food? Cao is worried that the efforts we have made over the years will lose the people's support for us because of the continuous collection of grain from the people. It's unacceptable......"

Cao Cao is indeed a man who is very good at learning, and he said to the ministers of the court seriously: "Liu Yi of the New Han Dynasty, why can he establish the New Han Dynasty and be so powerful?" According to Cao's understanding, Liu Yi is very good at confusing the people of the Han Dynasty and is very good at using the strength of the people. Therefore, no matter what, we must not lose the hearts and minds of the people. (To be continued......)
