247 Cao and Liu took what they needed
Liu Dai died in Linzi, Qi State, this big news soon spread in all directions with Liu Dai's army, Cao Cao led the army back to Puyang, and received Guo Jia's fast horse report.
Located in the Taishou Mansion in Puyang, only a lamp and candle are lit, Cao Cao sits and meditates quietly in the study alone, a corner of the study, a bottle of beast furnace is placed, the beast's mouth is facing the sky, and light smoke is rising, floating in the study, so that the room is full of refreshing fragrance.
This is just one of Cao Cao's little hobbies, when he is meditating, he likes to meditate, and at the same time light spices, which can calm his mind.
Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai can be regarded as his superior, although he has not called Liu Dai the lord, he was called the envoy before, and later called the king, but his position as the Taishou of the East County was given by Liu Dai, and this relationship between superiors and subordinates, no matter what, cannot be eliminated.
The news of Liu Dai's death has been confirmed, and he has a faint feeling in his heart about this matter, and now, he is not having a headache about this matter, but thinking about what kind of impact Liu Bei's unexpected move will have on the changes in Yanzhou.
Yanzhou County has eight, and as soon as Liu Dai goes, as far as he knows, it will be divided into four parts, which is his Dongjun Taishou, Taishan Taishou Yingshao, Liu Dai's old department and bystanders.
can be classified into Liu Dai's old department, only Chen Liutai guards Wang Qiu, Shanyang guards Liu Hong, and Jibei Xiang Chen Qi; The bystanders were Ji Zhan, the minister of Dongping, Liu Ru, the minister of the city, and Zhang Chong, the minister of Jiyin.
Adjacent to Dongjun is Chenliu, Jiyin, Dongping, Jibei and Qingzhou Plain County, according to common sense, he should be the first to take Chen Liu, but now, according to Guo Jia's analysis, Liu Bei has taken the lead from the plain, and the destination is not Puyang, but Chenliu.
Thinking about it. Cao Cao felt a faint pain on the left side of his head, which made it difficult for him to calm down, and at the same time, irritability gradually rose, and in desperation, he had to take a long breath, stretched out his hands, rubbed his temples, and shouted to the outside: "Someone! ”
The guards who had been waiting outside came in, and Cao Cao ordered without raising his head: "Go, please come over two gentlemen." ”
can be called Mr. by Cao Cao. At present, there are only three people, Cheng Yu, Xun Yu and Guo Jia, and now Guo Jia is far away in the plains, and only Cheng Yu and Xun Yu are left in Puyang.
A moment later, Cheng Yu and Xun Yu entered together. Cao Cao got up to greet him, which was quite strange. He asked, "Have the two gentlemen been waiting for each other in the mansion all along?" ”
Cheng Yu and Xun Yu nodded yes with a smile. Cheng Yu looked at Cao Cao's temples with both hands, frowned slightly, and persuaded: "The lord has been tired all the way, so it's better to rest early." ”
"Alas!" Cao Cao beckoned the two of them to take their seats, and said helplessly, "Wang Shangxu is in Linzi." where you can still sleep. ”
The two also showed their relatives, and Cheng Yu immediately changed the topic and said to Cao Cao: "Because of this, the lord needs to rest earlier." As soon as the king goes, Yanzhou will be eventful, and without the lord ascending to preside over the overall situation, it will be difficult for Yanzhou to maintain peace, and the people of Li will also suffer from fire and water. ”
Cao Cao was silent for a moment and asked, "The king has a younger brother, why don't you ......?"
"Lord!" Xun Yu interrupted Cao Cao's words, "The king's brother is in the midst of the attack on Xuzhou's Langevil army, why don't you see how Taishan Taishou Yingshao reacts, and then make a decision." ”
"Exactly!" Cheng Yu echoed, "The urgent thing for the lord today is to raise his arms and shout, unite the counties and states, and stabilize the situation in Yanzhou, so as to prevent anyone from taking the opportunity to cause chaos. ”
Cao Cao was silent again, pondered for a moment, and asked: "What Feng Xiao said, Liu Xuande is not in Puyang, but in Chenliu, what do the two gentlemen think?" ”
Cheng Yu did not answer directly, but said to Cao Cao: "Liu Xuande's so-called, although it is unexpected, tomorrow the lord will lead the army to attack, you can know what his intentions are." ”
"Well, if he leads the army to retreat and has no intention of fighting, it will be clear where his intentions are."
Hearing Xun Yu and Cheng Yu's words, Cao Cao also understood that they agreed with Guo Jia's words, and immediately nodded in response: "Okay, just do it, tomorrow I will lead the army and go to meet Liu Xuande for a while!" ”
The discussion was established, Cheng Yu and Xun Yu said goodbye and left, Cao Cao didn't think about it anymore, washed up, and rested.
Early the next morning, Cao Cao was dressed neatly, rash army, out of the city to the west, Liu Bei's army was stationed in the western suburbs of Puyang ten miles, neither siege the city, nor to supervise the construction of siege equipment, but every day drills, obviously this place as a place for military training.
Cao Cao led the army out of Puyang, through the morning Xu, from a distance to hear Liu Bei's camp in the war drums, horns sounded, before the camp arrived, I saw Liu Bei leading the army in a good formation, just waiting for him to come.
And after Liu Bei's army, the camp was still noisy, as if it was pulling out the camp and preparing to leave.
Seeing this situation, Cao Cao was already convinced by Guo Jia's words, and as soon as he lined up the formation, he heard several horsemen from the opposite side come out of the formation and slowly stepped forward, and the person who was approaching was Liu Bei.
"Brother Meng De, please come forward and speak!"
Liu Bei's shout, Cao Cao heard it clearly, couldn't help but snort coldly, urging the horse to step forward, Xiahou Yuan on the side saw this, and immediately patted his horse to follow, and several guards accompanied him.
Cao Cao stopped more than ten steps in front of Liu Bei's horse, looked at Zhang Fei, the fierce general behind Liu Bei, nodded and replied: "Why, how did Xuande have such leisure and leisure, abandon the people of the plains and Kong Qingzhou, and instead come to harass Puyang?" ”
"Haha......"
Liu Bei seemed to hear extremely interesting words, daxiao didn't stop, and arched his hand on horseback: "Speaking of invading, I want to ask Brother Meng De, as well as your king, why did you ignore the same dynasty as a minister, brazenly raise a three-way army, and harass Xu and Qing Erzhou?" ”
Cao Cao is also hahadaxiao, such a grinding mouth, in fact, it is meaningless, but he has to take a walk to show righteousness, after laughing, Cao Cao asked: "Where is Xuande going?" ”
Liu Bei smiled and asked rhetorically: "Your Majesty, there should be news here." ”
Cao Cao's face did not change, his heart did not beat, he shook his head and replied honestly: "The king is still in Linzi in Qi State, and Cao doesn't know the recent situation, what's the matter, Xuande knows?" ”
Zhang Fei was behind Liu Bei, and he heard the questions and answers of the two clearly, and when he looked at the back of his eldest brother Liu Bei, the admiration in his heart was like a surging river, endlessly.
can say it for so long, and every sentence is nonsense, this skill, I really don't know what he Lao Zhang did, if he is replaced, within three sentences, he will yell: Good you Cao Mengde, eat me a spear!
In fact, when he looked at Xiahou Yuan's face on the other side, he knew that what Xiahou Yuan was thinking in his heart was no different from what he was afraid of.
Just when he looked at Xiahou Yuan with unkind eyes, Xiahou Yuan was also like him, holding a big knife in his hand, constantly picking it up and putting it down, his eyes were also very unkind, and he kept patrolling Zhang Fei's key points, obviously he was determined, and he also had the same idea as Zhang Fei, and he didn't stop thinking in his mind how comfortable it would be for the big knife to cut Zhang Fei's key places.
In Zhang Fei's imagination, the Zhangba snake spear was on Xiahou Yuan's body, and it was a bloody hole when he stabbed it, and he knew that Xiahou Yuan on the other side was afraid that he would think the same way, and he couldn't help but get angry, and the various ways of Xiahou Yuan's death in his mind became more and more bloody and tragic, and the number of deaths became shorter and shorter each time.
He believed that if his gaze could convey anger and burst out sparks, the current between him and Xiahou Yuan, as well as the surroundings, must have been raging with fire, and no one and nothing could survive.
Thinking of the smugness, Zhang Fei couldn't help but laugh angrily, he never thought that Xiahou Yuan on the opposite side was also daxiao, the two of them got carried away, but Liu Bei and Cao Cao were taken aback, and they all shut up, and turned their heads to look at it in amazement.
But even so, the two of them daxiao for a while before they stopped.
was interrupted by Zhang Fei and Xiahou Yuan's divine exchange, Cao Cao was stunned to find that the camp behind Liu Bei had been collected seventy-seven eighty-eight, and immediately arched his hand and said: "Xuande, where is this going to pull out the camp?" ”
Liu Bei smiled and replied to Cao Cao: "Go where you want to go, Brother Meng De is a busy man, so I won't send Brother Meng De away." ”
Cao Cao smiled and said happily: "Okay, Xuande really understands people, refreshing, and has a fate on a different day, sit down again, drink good wine, and talk about the heroes of the world!" ”
"Definitely, definitely!"
Liu Bei also gladly agreed, said goodbye to Cao Cao, and turned around almost at the same time.
After walking a few steps, Zhang Fei looked back at Cao Cao and Xiahou Yuan, and asked in a low voice to his eldest brother Liu Bei: "Big brother, what are you two talking about for so long?" ”
Liu Bei smiled but didn't answer, Zhang Fei stretched out his hand and scratched his head, and said to himself: "It's strange, just say something unclear like this, or a clear and cheerful person?" Wouldn't my old Zhang be more aware and refreshing? ”
Although Zhang Fei was asking in a low voice, with his loud voice, even if he left for thirty or forty steps, Cao Cao could still hear it clearly, and he couldn't help but be happy, causing Zhang Fei to turn back frequently, I don't know what it was.
Liu Bei couldn't help laughing, turned his head to Zhang Fei and whispered: "The third brother must say more, when he is on the road, he will speak well for the third brother." ”
Returning to the formation, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei did not lead the army to set off, but still maintained the formation in place to be on guard, seeing Cao Cao's army change from the rear formation to the front formation, returning to Puyang, a stone in their hearts fell to the ground.
Cao Cao's actions convinced him that the situation in Yanzhou was really as predicted by the military advisor Xi Zhicai, and even if Liu Dai did not have an accident now, he must not be far from the accident, and Liu Dai's accident was mostly related to Cao Cao or Guo Jia, the staff of the account.
Yanzhou is in chaos, Cao Cao, Ying Shao, or Ying Shao, they are bound to have no time to look west, and Yuan Shu is now also trapped in the strategy of Xuzhou, so that when he is attacking the two counties of Chenliu and Yingchuan, Cao Cao, Ying Shao and Yuan Shu will have no time or have time to react.
And the strategy for Chen Liu, under the planning of the military advisor Xi Zhicai, has actually been launched. (To be continued......)
