Cao Cao asked Liu Xie for an edict, and Liu Wei in Luoyang City was also asking people to draft a document to discuss Cao.

A few days later, Yuan Shao, who was far away in Hebei, and Liu Bei, who was in Xuzhou, both received the text sent by Liu Wei.

The content of the text is a case of Cao Cao's crimes, and at the end of the article, Liu Wei did not even forget to arrange Liu Xie.

After receiving Liu Wei's text, Yuan Shao just opened it and read it, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

In the conference hall, in addition to Yuan Shao, Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Xu You, Xian Pei, Feng Ji and others were also there, and everyone turned their heads to look at Yuan Shao, quietly waiting for him to speak.

"The King of Qin issued a letter, counting Cao Cao's crimes! There are 10 major sins, and there are 72 minor sins! Putting the text on the low table in front of him, Yuan Shao looked around at the people in the hall: "I think the King of Qin is going to attack Cao Cao!" ”

"What are Yuan Gong's plans?" I didn't expect Liu Wei to suddenly send out a message, Tian Feng and Fu Zhu were also very surprised, the two glanced at each other, Tian Feng asked Yuan Shao very cautiously.

"I'll wait until I ask King Qin!" When Liu Wei did not promise to crusade against Cao Cao, Yuan Shao was still bent on breaking Cao Cao, but when he got Liu Bian's text, he became cautious and pondered for a moment before saying such a sentence.

Yuan Shao's caution surprised Tian Feng and Fu Zhu, and the two glanced at each other and didn't say anything more.

Feng Ji and Xian Pei were also surprised by Yuan Shao's caution, but the two of them had always instigated Yuan Shao to move troops against Cao Cao, seeing that he suddenly became cautious, Feng Ji stood up, hugged his fists and said to Yuan Shao: "Yuan Gong, the subordinates think that the King of Qin has already issued a message, and the crusade against Cao Cao is only between ten days, if Yuan Gong is one step earlier, ...... Yuan."

"Never!" Before Feng Ji's words were finished, Yuan Shao said something that surprised everyone even more: "King Qin sent a message, I can wait for a response!" At the end of the text, the King of Qin even counted down the current majesty, and the day when he wanted to be called the emperor was not far away, as a courtier, how could he compete with the emperor? ”

Yuan Shao's words stunned everyone in the hall.

If it is said that the army is marching and fighting, and the troops are arranged, any of them are much stronger than Yuan Shao, but if it is said that the palace fights and forms parties to seek power, they are much worse than Yuan Shao.

After listening to Yuan Shao's explanation, everyone suddenly realized.

Yuan Shao of Hebei sent an envoy to Luoyang and asked Liu Wei to send troops without mentioning it, only Liu Bei in Xuzhou.

Since betraying Dong Cheng and others through the edict of clothes, Liu Bei and Cao Cao both knew that it would not be beneficial for them to talk about this matter, and both of them kept silent.

When he arrived in Xuzhou, Liu Bei used his identity as an imperial uncle to recruit heroes everywhere, many of the former Yellow Turban remnants were already at the end of the road, and they had heard of Liu Bei's benevolence for a long time, and learned that he was recruiting troops and horses, and they all came to serve, and for a while, the number of people under his command reached 70,000 or 80,000 people.

Although Liu Bei has a lot of people, they are all negligent in training, and their combat effectiveness is not very strong.

occupied Xuzhou, what Liu Bei was most worried about was that Cao Cao pulled out his hand to crusade against him.

A few days ago, Cao Cao suddenly withdrew his troops from Hanoi, Liu Bei was sitting on pins and needles all day long, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were sent out by him to prevent Cao's army from advancing eastward.

After getting Liu Wei's inscription, Liu Bei let out a long sigh.

Liu Bian's issuance of the document has two purposes.

First, it is necessary to crusade against Cao Cao and pacify the Central Plains; The second is to replace Liu Xie and re-ascend the throne.

The last thing Liu Bei wants to happen is that Liu Xie's position is subverted.

Liu Wei didn't want to see Liu Bei, Liu Bei knew this, for him, the only thing he could make full use of was Liu Xie's puppet emperor.

Compared with Liu's argument as emperor, being defeated by Cao Cao is much more urgent.

After reading Liu Wei's article, Liu Bei did not immediately express his position, but asked Mi Zhu and Mi Fang on the side: "From the perspective of the two of you, how should this matter be handled?" ”

Mi Zhu and Mi Fang were not full-time advisors, and when they heard Liu Bei ask them, the two glanced at each other, but they didn't dare to express their position immediately.

The two also know very well that Liu Wei's attitude towards Liu Bei is much worse than Liu Xie.

No one knows if Liu Wei will destroy Liu Bei once he defeats Cao Cao.

Looking at Mi Zhu and Mi Fang, after waiting for a while, seeing that the two did not speak, Liu Bei's eyes narrowed slightly, reached out and stroked the beard on his chin, and said to the two: "The King of Qin issued a letter to definitely crusade against Cao Cao. In the end, even the current majesty was implicated, I am afraid that the king of Qin is going to be the emperor......"

Having already read the text, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang can also see Liu Bian's intentions.

The reason why they did not speak was precisely because Liu Bian's intention was too obvious.

The crusade against Cao Cao is only the first step, and I am afraid that the real move is to claim the title of emperor and replace Liu Xie.

Anyone in the world who is called the emperor will not attract Liu Bei's attention, after all, the world is still the country of the Han family, although the Han family has declined, and there is no ability to control the world, but once the heroes from all walks of life become emperors, they will be like Yuan Shu, and they will end up being crusaded by the whole world.

All the heroes are called emperors, Liu Bei will not care, but Liu argues that he is the emperor, but he has to guard against it!

After all, Liu Wei was the orthodox emperor of the Han family, and in front of Liu Wei, Liu Xie, the emperor, was also not very glorious.

If he wants to be the emperor, Haoxiong must have nothing to say!

Mi Zhu and Mi Fang were still silent, Liu Bei sighed lightly and said: "That's it, Cao Cao's withdrawal from Hanoi is to covet Xuzhou, if I don't wait to echo the King of Qin, I'm afraid that in the near future, I will break the ...... for Cao Cao."

"The envoy has made up his mind?" When Liu Bei said such a thing, he must have made up his mind in his heart, and Mi Zhu looked at him and asked.

"Echo King Qin, crusade against Cao Cao!" Liu Bei stood up, frowned, and said to Mi Zhu and Mi Fang: "You wait and give the order to go down and issue a document to crusade against Cao Cao!" However, the army should not march to Xudu, just strictly defend Xuzhou! ”

"No!" After getting Liu Bei's order, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang stood up at the same time and responded with their fists clenched.

Liu Bianwen was issued, and Cao Cao in Xudu City was not idle at this time.

Cao Ren had already been stationed in the Shouchun area, and Xiahoudun's army had also returned to Xudu, but Liu Wei's text made Cao Cao fall into a situation of being looked at by the heroes.

"Cao Gong!" Standing on the city wall, looking at the vast wilderness outside the city, Cao Cao was sighing in his heart about the current situation, Guo Jia quickly walked up the city wall and came behind him.

"Bonghyo!" Hearing Guo Jia call him, Cao Cao turned his head, smiled at Guo Jia, raised his hand and pointed to the vast wilderness outside the city, and said to Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, look at it, when will a large army come outside this Xu Capital?" ”

Holding his fists and bowing to Cao Cao, Guo Jia said with a smile: "Cao Gong said that he laughed, Xu Du is the capital today, who can drive the army here?" ”

"King Qin, Yuan Shao and Liu Bei have all issued a message!" With a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, Cao Cao said to Guo Jia: "Feng Xiao this time, but he has caused a lot of trouble!" ”

"This world is like a pond of spring water!" With the same smile on his face, Guo Jia said to Cao Cao: "There are a lot of fish in the water, but Ming Gong doesn't want to cast a net to catch them, so he has to muddy the water, and then he can catch fish with his bare hands!" ”

"Haha!" As soon as Guo Jia's words fell, Cao Cao raised his face and laughed, and said to him: "Fengxiao! Who is not in the hands of the heroes of this world? ”

"The subordinates are only in the hands of Cao Gong!" Maintaining a posture of clenching his fists and bowing, Guo Jia responded very humbly.

Guo Jia's words are an understatement, but in Cao Cao's ears, it is very useful.

He nodded and asked Guo Jia, "Cao Ren, what's wrong?" ”

"Return to Cao Gong!" Cao Cao asked how Cao Ren was doing, and Guo Jia hurriedly replied: "General Cao Ren is ready, as long as Cao Gong nods, he can enter Shouchun!" ”

"King Qin will not fail to put heavy troops under Shouchun Bu, remind Cao Ren to be careful in everything!" Turning his head to look out of the city, Cao Cao narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "As soon as Cao Ren's army moves, it will be an enemy of King Qin!" ”

"There are no permanent allies in the world, and there are no permanent enemies!" With a smile on his face, Guo Jia said to Cao Cao: "Duke Cao doesn't need to pay attention to Yuan Shao at the moment, Hebei will fall into the hands of Duke Cao sooner or later!" ”

Cao Cao didn't speak, just looked outside the city of Xudu, and the corners of his mouth pulled out a faint arc.

The document has been issued, and in Luoyang City, Liu Wei is also discussing countermeasures with Xu Shu and others.

Looking around at Xu Shu, Pang Tong and others sitting in the hall, Liu Wei asked everyone: "The text has been issued, this king has pointed the spearhead at Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and Liu Bei have responded, everyone thinks, when is it appropriate for our army to send troops?" ”

"Your Highness!" As soon as Liu Wei's words were spoken, Pang Tong stood up, clasped his fists and bowed to him and said: "Xiahoudun's army has returned to Xudu, Cao Ren's army is stationed at the junction of Xuzhou and Huainan, Cao Rendong can march into Xuzhou, and the west can crusade against Huainan, you must be guarded!" ”

"Yu Poison guards Shouchun, this king is not very worried!" Frowning slightly, Liu Wei pondered for a moment, and said to Pang Tong and the others: "It's just that the movements of Cao Ren's army are unknown, once they march into Shouchun, Shouchun has few soldiers, I'm afraid they won't be able to deal with it!" But Lu Bu was ordered to lead 30,000 soldiers and horses to gallop to help! ”

"Your Highness's concern is not bad!" Liu Wei said that he would send Lu Bu to Shouchun to help, and Xu Shu responded: "Although Liu Bei in Xuzhou is Cao Cao's confidant, my Great Qin is closely connected with Cao Cao, especially Shouchun, which is a strategic place. Cao Cao will not let go of this place in the future, His Highness is thoughtful! ”

"Someone!" Xu Shu and Pang Tong both expressed their approval of Lu Bu leading the army to support Shouchun, Jia Xu and Chen Gong also had no objection, and Liu Wei shouted outside the hall.

"Wait!" As soon as a guard guarding the front hall entered the hall, before Liu Wei could give an order, Chen Gong stood up and clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, if the Cao army intends to enter Shouchun, how can you be defenseless against our army's rush to help?" Remind General Lu to beware of Cao's army besieging the city and sending reinforcements! ”

"The public station is extremely worried!" After listening to Chen Gong's words, Liu Wei nodded before he said to the guard: "Hurry up and invite Lu Bu to discuss the matter!" ”
