"Lord, since Liu Yi is not dead, do we have to think about a long-term strategy to deal with the New Han Dynasty?" Xun You saw that Liu Yi's letter shocked Cao Cao and the courtiers, and hurriedly put forward another opinion, so as not to make Cao Cao impulsive, and immediately decided to implement Cheng Yu's strategy.

"If Liu Yi doesn't die, it's a big harm." Cao Cao sighed a little frustrated for a long time and said, "Alas, why can't this Liu Yi be killed?" Now, if Liu Yi does not die, the shape will be even worse for us. ”

"Well, my lord, not so, right? Xun also read this letter, Xun felt that Liu Yi should be sincere, otherwise, there would be no need for him to send us such a letter. Why don't we send someone to talk to the New Han Dynasty? Xun You saw that after Cao Cao read Liu Yi's letter, he seemed to be even more worried, and couldn't help muttering a little, well, Liu Yi's letter has been very clear, although it is not too good, but this seems to be a good news that can solve the problems of his own court in front of him and buy time for his court, at least, in his conversation with Liu Yi, he felt that Liu Yi was still sincere, for the sake of the entire Han people, and did not want to start a full-scale war with Cao Cao. Cao Cao Now, a rare good time, as long as he grasps it well, when Liu Yi focuses on other battlefields of war, Cao Cao can accumulate grain and become king slowly. When the time is ripe, it is not too late to compete with Liu Yi, if it is not enough to relieve the tension with Liu Yi now, then Xun You really dare not imagine this consequence.

You must know that Liu Yi is not dead, but he saw it with his own eyes, and Liu Yi is even when his life and death are unknown. Now the pressure given to them by the New Han Dynasty has made them helpless. If Cao Cao did not follow Liu Yi's wishes, he had to mobilize his military horses to fight against the New Han Dynasty. So in the New Han Dynasty where Liu Yi is there, what kind of shape is that?

"If Liu Yiruo is really dead, even if we are grim at the moment, it is nothing, even if the revenge of the New Han Army is crazy, we have a way to deal with it, even if it is a strategy, we have a chance. Fang Cai, Zhongde's strategy, Cao thought it was feasible. Deal. Cao is infamous for a lifetime, as long as the basic foundation of the New Han Dynasty is shaken, then the New Han Dynasty can no longer be worried, this Han world, sooner or later will be ours. But if Levio doesn't die, we'll be wonderful. Cao Cao's expression was even more annoyed, and he had a sense of powerlessness.

To be honest, Cao Cao is now, after joining forces with Yuan Shao to assassinate Liu Yi. Even if he was a little too hasty, he failed to attack the New Han Dynasty this time, and he also lost his troops, but. When Leo Yi is gone, he can always have a way. No matter how powerful the New Han Army is, there is no Liu Yi. He had a glimmer of hope. But Liu Yi didn't die, and Cao Cao felt an invisible pressure. He was a little out of breath.

Actually, Cheng Yu's approach. Cao Cao didn't think about it, nor did he not think about it, but he never put it forward and never implemented it. After all, let his army, incarnate as a robber, enter the territory of the New Han Dynasty to burn, kill and loot, which hurts the peace of the heavens, once the news is leaked, let the Han people know that it is his Cao Cao's military horses to do the evil deeds, then, no matter whether he Cao Cao can seize the world in the end, he will also bear a name. After all, Cao Cao also wanted to win over the people in the name of supporting the Han family and revitalizing the Han Dynasty, and established this imperial court. If the civil and military officials of the imperial court know that Cao Cao waved his army and did those evil things, this is not only a matter of infamy, but will definitely be criticized by the court and the people of the world. The strictest is that many of the generals and strategists around him will probably leave him. When the time comes, why will Cao Cao fight the world? On what basis to govern the Great Han?

As a last resort, Cao Cao really didn't want to do that. Now, under such a bad situation, with the advice of the following advisers, Cao Cao can pretend that he is forced to carry out such a vicious policy, and he can pretend that he has no choice but to do so. At the very least, there will be an excuse for Cao Cao to exonerate. Alternatively, the fault can be blamed on the strategists below.

However, now that Liu Yi is not dead, then this method can no longer be implemented. Liu Yi's prestige in the eyes of the people of the New Han Dynasty was too high. If you dare to do this, not to mention whether your own people can succeed, whether they can destroy the order of the New Han Dynasty. Even if it is achieved, as long as Liu Yi is present in the New Han Dynasty, Liu Yi ascends to the heights, and the people return to their hearts, it will be difficult for him Cao Cao to achieve the desired effect.

"My lord, since Liu Yi intends to make peace with us, why don't we pretend to agree? As long as Liu Yi can appease their now crazy New Han army and not start a full-scale war against us immediately, then we still have time to recuperate. Xun You wanted to comfort Cao Cao, but he didn't know how to say it.

"Okay, let's take a look at it. Now that we've seen that, let's talk about how we're going to do it. Cao Cao stopped Xun You's words and motioned for the people below to check Liu Yi's letter and take a look.

The advisors did not hesitate, and hurriedly stepped forward to check the letter that Cao Cao threw into the ground.

Everyone present, they felt a little incredible, in the hearts of everyone, they had already judged that Liu Yi was dead, but now they suddenly said that Liu Yi was still alive and had Liu Yi's letter, they really couldn't accept it for a while.

"My lord, this, this is just a letter, how can it explain the problem? Mr. Xun, how did you get this letter? Was it really someone else who delivered it to your home? Have you met Leo in person? ”

Someone doubted the word.

"Fart! How do I know, you ask me? Last night, there were so many people who came to my Xun family to give gifts, who knows how they were delivered? If it weren't for the next person who sorted out the gift and appeared this letter, now, we don't know whether Liu Yi is alive or dead. However, Liu Yi's handwriting, Xun has seen it, believe it or not! Anyway, mainly here, the lord can also recognize Liu Yi's handwriting. Xun You glanced at the questioning person and reprimanded with a calm face.

Now, Cao Cao has not yet expressed his position, and he doesn't know if he wants to relieve this tense situation with the New Han Dynasty. If Cao Cao knew that Liu Yi was hiding in his Xun family now, it would be bad if someone was sent to search for it, because Cao Cao's three daughters were also in his own home. Once it is searched, it will be a matter of losing the head of the whole family. So. Xun You must not be sloppy, and he must reprimand that person severely.

"Enough! Let you read the letter. Not for you to question the source of this letter, but for you to figure it out. Liu Yi should still be alive. Cao Cao glanced at Xun Yu and moved in his heart, but he didn't say anything.

Now, he doesn't want to investigate too much about how Liu Yi delivered the letter to Xun You, because Liu Yi is still alive, which is a big problem. Cao Cao is indeed a little upset now. It was originally a good situation, but it became like this, which put Cao Cao in a dilemma, and the future prospects were not good. Therefore, he just wanted these advisors below to be able to come up with a good way to completely change the situation.

With Liu Yixu and the snake committee, there will be no disputes for the time being, which is naturally a good thing for Cao Cao. After all, now that the Xinhan Army is angry and crazy, it is at war with Liu Yi at this moment. I can't ask for any benefit. However, if this is the case, it is still an old problem. Liu Yi did not die, and the future New Han Dynasty will be even more difficult to deal with. I don't see much prospect anymore. Moreover, Cao Cao is still very worried. Worried that Liu Yi is just paralyzing him now, after all, he has already torn up the agreement first, Liu Yi can attack him at any time, he is in a position of being at a loss, no matter what Liu Yi does to him, he is blameless. Besides, the initiative is in Liu Yi's hands, and even if Liu Yi attacks him at any time, it is useless for him to accuse. He was worried, worried that as soon as he agreed to Liu Yi's reconciliation, after he relaxed his vigilance, Liu Yi's army would come over.

"Lord, in any case, since we intend to ease the tension between our two families, this is only a good thing for us. After all, we have lost too many soldiers and horses at once, and our vitality has been greatly damaged, and if we continue to confront the soldiers of the New Han Dynasty, it will not be conducive to our regrouping. Therefore, if Liu Yi is really alive, we might as well send an envoy to Luoyang to see if we can talk to Liu Yi and reach an agreement? ”

Liu Yi's letter was passed in the hands of those strategists, and after one of them read it, he proposed to Cao Cao and said: "If the New Han Dynasty is really willing to reconcile with us temporarily, then we can withdraw our troops back first to show our sincerity, this is probably inevitable, otherwise, I am afraid, the New Han Army does not want to talk to us at all." ”

"Xun Junshi, Cheng Junshi, what do you think?" Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu and Cheng Yudao.

"I have no opinion......" Cheng Yu looked a little listless, moved his mouth, and lowered his head.

"Lord, Hua thinks that no matter whether what Liu Yi said is true or not, but, let's believe him, now, it is Liu Yi who took the initiative to write to the lord, and we have some ...... Well, anyway, no matter what, Hua felt that he had to send an envoy to Luoyang first. Hua Xin also read Liu Yi's letter at this moment, and felt that he should talk to the New Han Dynasty first, but ......

Hua Xin said a little embarrassed: "Now, Hua is afraid that the envoy we sent out is in danger. At the beginning, Hua went to Xiangyang to negotiate a truce with Liu Yi on behalf of the lord, but now it is equivalent to us unilaterally tearing up the agreement, and it is inconvenient for Hua to go again. It depends on who among us dares to go to Luoyang. ”

Hua Xin looked at his face and knew that Cao Cao was unlikely to implement the plan offered by Cheng Yu anymore, and it was very likely that he wanted to make peace with the Xinhan Dynasty, so that everyone could read Liu Yi's letter, and it was estimated that he was thinking about who to send to Luoyang. Although Hua Xin can be eloquent, this time, he really didn't dare to see Liu Yi again. At the beginning of Xiangyang, he negotiated an agreement with Liu Yi, and later, it was he who presented the secret map for Liu Yi to smuggle across the Yellow River. Liu Yi was attacked, and he must have known his plan in his heart, Hua Xin was a little worried that if he went to Luoyang again, even if Liu Yi didn't do anything to him, Liu Yi's subordinates would not let him go. Even if the two countries do not fight each other, Hua Xin is afraid that Liu Yi's people will not kill him, but they will abolish him. Therefore, he immediately explained that he was no longer fit to go on any more missions.

"Which of you can go?"

Cao Cao said in Hua Xin's tone.

What Hua Xin said, Cao Cao felt that it made sense, no matter what, the main thing now is to ease this tension with the New Han Dynasty first. If Liu Yidang could really hold back his anger and stop attacking him for the time being, Cao Cao could indeed steal a breather.

Man Pang, Dong Zhao, Xu You, etc., all the strategists lowered their heads when they heard Cao Cao say who could go.

"My lord, this mission to Luoyang is not trivial, ordinary people, even if they go. It is also bound to be insulted by the angry ministers of the New Han Dynasty, so. Hua thought ......, "Hua Xin is afraid that Cao Cao will order the general, so let him go to Luoyang." hurriedly said: "There must be someone who has a little relationship with the New Han Dynasty, otherwise, I'm afraid I won't even be able to see Liu Yi's face." ”

"Well, there's some truth to that." Cao Cao knew that there was no way out, since Liu Yi took the initiative to write to himself, although he was extremely sarcastic about himself, but at least it all showed that Liu Yi is now. It seems that he really doesn't want to fight with himself. Anyway, it is himself who is at a disadvantage now, if Liu Yi is willing to negotiate peace, then why not talk to Liu Yi? The question of the selection of envoys is indeed as Hua Xin said, and it cannot be sloppy, and not everyone can go.

Cao Cao thought about it, and his eyes fell on Xun You.

Since Liu Yi sent the letter to Xunfu, then it was indicated. Liu Yi should have a good impression of the people in Xunfu. After all, someone in the Xun family is an official in Luoyang, these things. It's not a secret, Cao Cao knows it very well. And the people of the Xun family, such as Xun Shuang and so on. The status of the New Han Dynasty is extremely high, if it is to send Xun You to the New Han Dynasty. At the very least, it can be guaranteed that the people of the New Han Dynasty will not hurt him.

Of course. Cao Cao did not suspect that Xun You would collude with the Xun family in Luoyang. For Cao Cao, as long as the children of the Xun family are still in Xudu, he doesn't have to worry that the people of the Xun family will harm his interests.

Therefore, Cao Cao thought about it and said to Xun You: "Mr. Xun, otherwise, you can go to Luoyang, now, our court, I'm afraid there is no one more suitable to go to Luoyang except you." Someone in your Xun family is an official in the New Han Dynasty, no matter what, Liu Yi will give you face for the Xun family and will not embarrass you. ”

"Let me go to Luoyang? This ......" Xun You didn't dare to agree for a while, for fear that Cao Cao would suspect something, so he said a little calmly: "Lord, in fact, Xun is no different from ordinary adults, only from, after our Xun family separated, our branches have long been cut off, they are them, we are us." Xun didn't want to have too much contact with them. ”

"Mr. Xun, these Cao knows, you don't have to explain. However, after all, it is also broken bones and tendons, how to say, Xun Shuang They are all members of your Xun family, if you go to Luoyang, they will definitely not embarrass you. If other people go to Luoyang, Cao is worried that when they come back, they will lack hands and legs. Cao Cao also looked at Xun You with a sincere face, as if he absolutely trusted Xun You.

"That's ......" Xun You knew that he had no choice, and at present, it seemed that there was no more suitable person to represent Cao Cao to go to Luoyang to negotiate with Liu Yi besides him.

He nodded and said, "Thank you for your trust in Xun, Xun will not hesitate to go to the soup for the lord, but ......"

"Oh? Mr. Xun, if you have any conditions, for the sake of our court, no matter what it is, Cao will agree to you. Cao Cao saw that Xun You was a little hesitant, and hurriedly gave Xun You some guarantees.

"My lord, Xun has no conditions, and it is natural to work for my lord. How dare you have conditions? Xun You stood up a little straighter and said: "It's just that, lord, our search and arrest of Liu Yi is still going on, I think, should we take back this order first?" If Xun went to negotiate with Liu Yi here, and continued to arrest him here, wouldn't it seem that we were very insincere? ”

"Hmm......" Cao Cao nodded and said, "Yes, yes, since we have negotiated peace with the New Han Dynasty, it is indeed beneficial for us now, and besides, if Liu Yi does not die, there is no point in our army to hunt down any more." Since he had sent the letter, he must have joined up with their people, or maybe his injuries were almost healed. Unless our master general touches him, otherwise, ordinary soldiers, even if they search for him, will not be able to help Liu Yi. Herald ......"

Cao Cao immediately issued an order to let the people below give up the order to continue to search for Liu Yi.

However, Cao Cao thought for a while and said, "Mr. Xun, for the time being, we have to block our capital for a period of time, and if we haven't found my Cao Cao's daughter, we can't lift the ban yet." Therefore......"

"It's okay, lord, even if Xun wants to go to Luoyang, he won't come out immediately, at least, he has to prepare, see Luoyang, how to meet Liu Yi, and how to negotiate with Liu Yi." Xun You knew that the three sisters of the Cao family were still in their own mansion, and their letters had not yet been delivered to Cao Cao, as long as their letters were delivered to Cao Cao, then Cao Cao would naturally lift the ban in the whole city, so it didn't matter if Liu Yi walked in Xu Capital City with a swagger. Since Cao Cao has agreed to make peace with Liu Yi, he should not do anything to Liu Yi again. At this time, if he did something to Liu Yi again, it would only make Liu Yi even more angry, if Liu Yi changed his attitude and really wanted to attack regardless of a qiē soldier, then Cao Cao would definitely be even more upset.

"Okay, then it's decided, tomorrow is the day of the emperor's wedding, just wait for the wedding to be completed for the emperor, the day after tomorrow, Mr. Xun, you will go to Luoyang again."

"Yes!" Xun Yu responded.

"My lord, in that case, can we talk about how we can speed up the development of the new Han Dynasty if there is no war with the New Han Dynasty? If we don't step up the time exhibition, in the future, we will not be the opponents of the New Han Dynasty. ”

"Don't worry, there's one more thing that Cao just remembered." Cao Cao waved his hand and said thoughtfully. (To be continued!)
