If life is only as it first sees, this sentence is not only for lovers. For example, Cao Ying vs. Qin Xu.

For capable people, Cao Ying has always admired it very much, and it is not an exaggeration to call it love as life. After seeing Qin Xu's "ability", especially after suffering a few big losses, he took a lot of effort to solicit him. But seeing that Qin Xu was faintly regarded as the number one enemy by his own family step by step, but had to temporarily push Lu Bu, who was a snake to the position of Xuzhou Thorn History, was not a "bargaining chip" that he could come up with at all, the so-called love and hatred were extremely hateful, and he also had a little more strange thoughts about Qin who was only as old as his son at this age, but who had already become a "colleague" of the Han Dynasty.

The previous time because of Ma Teng Han Sui, after the chaos in Chang'an, Cao Ying, who wanted to achieve great things, was helplessly trapped in Tongguan and could not advance an inch. But at this time, someone from Qin, who made Cao Ying simply love and hate, came, and in the name of escorting his own son Cao Ang, he insisted on using this "legitimate reason" to "break his promise" when he swore that Qingzhou would not interfere, and intervened in this matter, although he only brought about 20 people here.

In fact, at the beginning, Cao Ying didn't take Qin Xu's arrival seriously, he just thought about using the strategy of killing to attract Yuan Shao's "firepower" to the Qingzhou forces behind Qin Xu, and it was enough to be a shield. Anyway, tens of thousands of people can't capture Tongguan, is it possible that Qin someone's twenty or so people can capture it as soon as they arrive? Immortal? Maybe with Yuan Shao's 100,000 soldiers and horses, he should almost rely on the strength of the crowd to achieve full success, right? Although Yuan Shao's plan is very big, there must be a dispute between himself and Yuan Shao, but it is also based on the salvation of the Son of Heaven. In particular, Cao Ang, the eldest son who was pinned on high hopes, brought a "secret weapon" that was enough to counter Yuan Shao, and Cao Ying felt that he was already fearless and victory was in sight.

But God just made a big joke with Cao Ying. Just when Yuan Shao's vanguard general Yan Liang focused his provocative eyes on Qin Xu, whose strength was almost infinitely close to zero compared to several companies in the field at that time, and wanted to use Qin Xu to deter Cao Ying, Cao Ying chose to remain silent. Just to see how Qin Xu, who has always been optimistic about himself and has reversed the market several times in a row, will deal with the difficult thing that Yan Liang said is almost murderous, and how he will react. Unexpectedly, Qin Xu's actions really made Cao Ying unable to laugh. Not only did he break through the Tong Pass with a horse, forcing himself to continue to raise his salary and add firewood in the determined killing strategy, but he also obtained a member of the Xiliang Fierce General and the elite troops of the 3,000-born Xiliang Iron Cavalry, not to mention a lot of money, now he has all the face, and Cao Ying, the biggest promoter of Qin Xu's fame behind the scenes, almost fell to the point of negative teaching materials.

Seeing that Qin Xu was facing Yuan Shao head-on because of Yan Liang's unprovoked provocation before, Cao Ying was simply very happy. Whether it was Yuan Shao, who was not good, suppressed Qin Xu, or Qin Xu, who benefited a lot, forced Yuan Shao, in fact, the biggest right-hand man was his old Cao. Therefore, just when Yuan Shao intended to "provoke" Qin Xu but was forced into a corner by Qin Xu's words and wanted to kill someone, Cao Yingben wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the "tiger" fight, but unexpectedly, he accidentally touched the silk letter brought back by Cao Ang in his sleeve that stated Yuan Shu's ambition, and after seeing Qin Xu's fearless calm face, he had other plans.

This kind of thing, Qin Xu and his Lao Cao have different effects when they say it. In the final analysis, although Qin Xu and Lu Bujun had provoked Yuan Shao several times and took advantage of it, the two families did not have a bitter hatred, and Lu Bu's positions as Qingzhou Mu and General Zuo were still "sent" by Yuan Shao to the court, and he turned a corner and said that Lu Bu could still be regarded as a great benefactor who avenged the old Yuan family. As long as Qin Xu made this matter clear, he revealed a little bit that Qingzhou and Xuzhou had the intention to join Yuan Shao to deal with Yuan Shu, who was regarded by Yuan Shao as the rebellious Yuan family and the biggest enemy of the family, and had the heart and ability to hold the artifact of the country and wanted to "do other things", then he wanted to come to the overall situation of the Yuan family master who did great things and sacrificed his life, and saw the small profit and died, plus Xuzhou bordered Yuan Shu's territory, but it was far more than thousands of miles away from Yuan Shao's camp, and the temptation of that divine object, it was impossible to say that Cao Ying's understanding of his old friend would forget the past in person, with Qingzhou to rebuild in a good thing, Lao Yuan is not unable to do it.

But in this way, it was his Yanzhou that suffered in the end. This time to rescue the Son of Heaven, unless Cao Ying really came to save the king, and did not have the slightest selfishness to mix with it, he would inevitably agree to Yuan Shao, who wanted to attack and pick peaches. At that time, Cao Ying had already paid great attention to Cao Ying by only facing Qingzhou, if he added Yuan Shao of Jizhou, who knew him very well, and Qin Xu of Xuzhou, who was defeated several times, and Yuan Shu, one of the three evils of Luoyang who had a grudge against him, his old Cao's Yanzhou would really face the point of attacking from all sides. This is definitely not something that someone Cao, who has a high degree of military attainment, would want to happen.

Therefore, when he saw that Yuan Shao intended to order the release of water, so that Yan Liang had the opportunity to kill Qin Xu by mistake with a knife, Cao Ying, who was still hesitating, had to use the guise of righteousness to persuade the two of them to relieve Qin Xu's mortal siege. Even in order to save Qin Xu, Lao Cao even exposed his own guards who were quite secret, and had to pinch his nose, saying that these knife and axe hands were Xiliang soldiers, in order to eliminate Yuan Shao's misunderstanding, but also to advertise his personality charm. Otherwise, how can you explain that you dare to meet Yuan Shao and Qin Xu in the military tent alone without the guards? This "deal", no matter whether he can successfully rescue the Son of Heaven in the end and move to Xu County, he Cao has already lost a lot of capital first.

And Yuan Shao, who has been in the dark and doesn't understand why his friends "value" the kid in front of him so much, after being persuaded by Cao Ying in the name of righteousness, he actually admires himself very much, thinking that this is the basis for great things. Just imagine, anyone who is bullied by an arrogant boy who is no different from himself regardless of family background, fame, status, strength, and even age to be like him, can still take great things as a priority, calmly discuss military affairs all morning, just this endurance, or the bearing shown by calling it righteousness, except for the ancient sages, who can compare to him Yuan Benchu? Although someone named Xuzhou Thorn History, he is actually a small character, and the current situation is indeed not suitable for a war with Qingzhou immediately, at least he has to wait for the successful takeover of the Son of Heaven, right? Seeing that Cao Ying gave a big step, Yuan Shao was also happy to borrow the slope to get off the donkey, and after the big event was decided, he would plan the future. It's just that although Yuan Shao was quite angry before, he was also a soldier, otherwise it would be impossible to dominate Hebei at the moment, although he thought that Cao Ying's frontal attack was an excuse to persuade the two to make peace, but seeing Cao Ying's truth, he couldn't help frowning and expressing his concerns.

Although Cao Ying has been pressing Yuan Shao since he was young and intersecting, Yuan Shao is unwilling to admit that Cao Ying is stronger than himself. Cao Ying, who couldn't even capture Tongguan, was so confident in attacking Chang'an, which had thick walls, sufficient soldiers and food, and no chaos inside, that he would have to mumble in anyone's heart.

"The original worry was nothing but the 200,000 soldiers and horses in the city! But in the eyes of Ying, although the 200,000 soldiers and horses were numerous, they regarded them as if they were nothing! Seeing that after he "settled" Yuan Shao, even with Qin Xu was honest, and he became a good baby for the first time, without saying a word, without the slightest appearance of the previous domineering, Cao Ying couldn't guess what kind of ghost idea Qin someone was thinking in his heart, seeing Yuan Shao asking, he said with a smile: "I also knew that in the west of Chang'an, there are Ma Teng and Han Sui and the two thieves have been stuck for nearly two months without success, and the loss is quite large and the food will be exhausted soon." And the two thieves were originally allies with the two before, so they naturally deeply understood that the soldiers in the army of these two people were made up of a mixture of Qiang and Han, if the food was sufficient, they could fight to the death with the Xiliang Iron Cavalry for two months without retreating, and their combat power would go without saying, but once the food was exhausted, or even when the food was scarce, it was bound to be chaotic, if we were the people in Chang'an City who deeply understood the military strength of the two people, what would we do? ”

"Naturally, he took advantage of the situation to go out of the city to exterminate it, needless to say! But so what? Then the two thieves of Li Dao and Guo Yan will not devote all the troops of the city to hunt down and kill those two people, and leave an empty city for us to wait, right? After Cao Ying said this, Yuan Shao followed closely and said, I don't understand what is the use of Cao Ying talking about these at this time, is it possible that Li Ji and Guo Yan are both fools?

"What if Ma Teng and Han Sui knew that they had become the end of a strong crossbow and that they couldn't wear Lu Min, so they still wanted to forcibly attack the city regardless of their already low morale?" Since he had already torn his face with Yuan Shao, Qin Xu's words naturally did not make Yuan Shao feel as warm as a spring breeze, seeing that Yuan Shao finished speaking, Qin Xu sneered and said.

"Qin Xuzhou was given the foundation by Tao Gongzu at a young age, so I think he hasn't led the troops alone, right? Lu Fengxian is a hero, but he is also relieved to be scared, and now he will teach you that when he commands the army, if the food is exhausted, if he does not retreat quickly, it will be very easy to shake the heart of the army and give rise to the camp roar, let alone the siege of the city, that is, if he can run three percent in the field without crushing, he is already the elite of the elite! I want to say that I will go to camp first...... Hum! Yuan Shao originally wanted to be a good teacher, and took this opportunity to sarcastically mock someone Qin, and by the way, he was disgusted and disgusted Lu Bu, who didn't even say thank you to Qingzhou, but unexpectedly, the addiction of the lesson was smooth, until he saw the strange faces on Qin Xu and Cao Ying's faces, he suddenly realized his gaffe, and quickly stopped talking, but the embarrassment and anger on his face could not be suppressed. But I forgot that most of the 800 soldiers of the first battalion who are now praised and proud by themselves have surrendered to this kid in front of them!

"Originally, he was also kind-hearted, and Zhong Ming must know it well! But at the beginning, what Zhong Ming said was also reasonable! Seeing that Yuan Shao was actually made out of shape by his own blurted out words, Cao Ying hurriedly took away the topic, and said before Yuan Shao opened his mouth: "As I said before, it has only been a few hours since I broke through the Tong Pass, and it was lucky that someone escaped and returned to Chang'an to report the news, so that the two thieves of Li Dao and Guo Yan were prepared, and they will definitely defend the defense of the city gate in the direction we came." After all, you and I have more than 100,000 troops, and the two thieves are also a knowing soldier, and they must know the principle of killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800. I will definitely not give up a great advantage, abandon the city and fight with us in the field, and will definitely gather troops to guard against our army, so that we will have a chance! ”

"Meng De, what does this have to do with whether Ma Teng Han Sui will attack Chang'an again? Could it be that you want to contact them, and let's attack Chang'an from both sides? But it's hard to say whether they have the strength to fight again at this time. Yuan Shao seemed to understand something, seeing Qin Xu's non-stop nodding, and Qin Xu had already seen the "joke" back to Qin Xu just now, Yuan Shao was much more rigorous this time, thought for a while, and suddenly flashed a little joy on his face, and said: "Could it be that Meng De meant that it was us who left suspicious soldiers to attract the attention of the two thieves, but in fact, they secretly took advantage of the fact that the news of the fall of Tongguan had not spread, and quietly turned to the direction of the West Gate of Chang'an, under the pretext that Ma Teng Han Sui, who had been not paid much attention to by the defenders of the West Gate, attacked him unprepared?!" ”

"I really knew the mind of the child!" The corners of Cao Ying's mouth hooked slightly, looked at Qin Xu's frowning face, looked at Yuan Shao and said with a smile: "The person who is difficult to decide now is the popularity of this suspicious general, who must not only have an identity that can attract the attention of the two thieves, but also have the ability to wit and change, but it is difficult to live!" ”

Qin Xu: "......! (To be continued.) )
