Chapter Eighty-Five: It's a Good Shade Under the Big Tree

Cao Cao nodded and said with a smile:

"Feng Xiao has always been wise, can you teach me today?"

Guo Jia didn't dare to say anything, and analyzed:

"Since the lord of Luoyang and Xuchang, he has been focusing on agriculture and business, and has made great efforts. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info now has 100,000 armor soldiers, 1,000 fierce generals, and as for the materials, it is even more abundant. ā€

Cao Cao was worried about which way to send troops, but Guo Jia only talked about the national strength with honor.

Xun Yu picked up the conversation on the side and said softly:

"As Feng Xiao said, with the current military strength of our army, looking at the princes from all walks of life, there are few people who can compare with our army. Huainan Yuan Shu, a vulgar person who does not go to the lobby, steals the jade seal, and does things that are unpopular and falsely claims to be the Son of Heaven. It governs the two places of Runan Xinye, and does not want to benefit the people, but instead raises the army, making the library empty and causing disaster! ā€

As if it had been rehearsed, as soon as Xun You's voice fell, the drama of the green shirt Zhuoer picked up the words again and said:

"As for Lu Bu and Ma Teng, they are in vain. Even if Chen Gongtai and Han Wenyue help each other, the internal affairs are all rotten, and if it is just a peaceful fashion, once there is another war, its drawbacks will inevitably appear, so there is no need to worry. ā€

Cheng Yu continued:

"Among the princes, only Lin Zhoumu knows the truth that water can carry boats. Everywhere he went, he cultivated the fields and stored money and grain. Although the power is not obvious at this time, we can only get 50,000 troops to resist Ma Teng's soldiers and horses, but if he defeats Ma Teng, and has enough time, it will become a great disaster for our army. ā€

Cao Cao patiently listened to the four of them, raised the corners of his eyebrows, and said with a meaningful smile:

"I'm afraid, Lin Yifang doesn't have time."

After talking to everyone, although he had not carefully discussed what to do, Cao Cao obviously had an idea, and ordered someone to invite Sun Qian from the mansion, Cao Cao said in a deep voice:

"Gongyou's invitation, I thought about it again. Ran remembered the friendship with Xuande in the past to discuss the yellow scarf, and was willing to help. ā€

Sun Qian was overjoyed, bowed down and thanked:

"In this way, I have thanked the lord for Cao Gong's kindness!"

Cao Cao waved his hand to signal that he didn't have to, and continued:

"I went to Xuzhou here, and I should pay for the food and salary of the army and horses, and I also bothered to pay Xuande."

Sun Qian's mouth was full of answers.

Cao Cao showed a strange smile and said:

"One more thing."

"Cao Gong, please speak!"

"Emperor Xiaochou was killed by traitors and died in Chang'an, which made me sad and angry. The prince of Xuande was the first emperor Huangshu, but he was called king at this time, I am afraid that it is inappropriate. ā€

Sun Gan's eyelids jumped, and he secretly said that he was really here.

When Liu Bei sent him as an envoy, he grabbed him gloomily and ordered:

"If Cao Cao talks about the solitary king, you will say that after Lu Bu is broken, Lone will retire from the throne and elect him as the king of Wei as the emperor's uncle."

Feng Wang Feng Gong, called lonely and widowed, at first glance it sounds infinite, but behind it, it is stared at by countless pairs of blood-red eyes, just one step is wrong, and then from the darkness to reveal a bloody mouth to choose someone to bite.

When Liu Bei first defeated Yuan Shu, he occupied Shouchun, and Xuzhou as the base camp, he was proud, and saw that Yuan Shu, who was defeated, dared to be the emperor, so he became ambitious to be the king.

But to this day, the benefits of being called the king have not been seen, but by the alliance between Lu Bu and Yuan Shu, the loss of Pi, this time to Cao Cao for reinforcements, not so much to eliminate Lu Bu and Yuan Shu in one go, but rather to be afraid of being eaten up a little bit, in order not to be destroyed and find a way out.

Everyone in the world says that immortals are good, but they can't forget their fame. Where will the past and the present meet? The barren mound is gone, and the grass is gone.

......

"The matter of being the king, but my lord was confused for a while. Now be vigilant, and give up. And my lord has a saying, when Duke Cao gets the two counties of Xinye in Runan, you should ask the people of the world to be the king of Wei as the emperor's uncle. ā€

This is also the bottom line of Liu Bei and Cao Cao's strong men.

Cao Cao laughed, invited Sun Qian to a banquet at night, and even transferred troops at the banquet, saying that after three days, he would select 50,000 troops to send Huainan to conquer Yuan Shu!

This kind of thing is not so much a discussion with Sun Qian, but a naked deterrent of strength.

What Sun Qian didn't know was that when Cao Cao left Xuchang, he sent Luoyang to guard Xiahoudun, and Xuchang to guard Cao Ren, and chose another 100 generals, 30,000 soldiers and horses from the pass, and sent a letter to Guguan in the west, approaching Wancheng!

There are many soldiers and willful.

Why should Lone consider the matter of choice, this world, all of them will be in my mind!

......

Jia Xu used an order from the history of Jingzhou to make Liu Biao and Lin Li have a gap;

Lu Bu married Yuan Shu with his daughter, and borrowed soldiers and horses to sneak attack Xiapi;

Liu Bei used the position of King of Wei to tempt his wife Cao, and borrowed soldiers and horses to attack Yuan Shu;

The strategy of devouring the wolf is extremely easy to say, but it is always tried and tested.

But some people remember that when Lin Li went to the battlefield that day, he sent Zhong Miao to leave Chang'an.

Zhong Xuan is non-stop, where is the starry night going?

Xiangyang.

Liu Biaoqi is a person, with an extraordinary appearance, white clothes and a high crown, and a long beard and handsome.

In the 20 years in Jingzhou, he married the Cai family with the help of the family, worshiped Huang Zu as a general, got the support of the Huang family, and accepted Yue Liang as a staff, with the power of the aristocratic lords, weighed each other, and had a stable Jingzhou like Mount Tai.

Liu Biao is ranked among the eight horses, but since he gained power, he has adhered to the way of self-security, and with the wealth of Jingzhou, he has been safe for decades. At this moment, he looked at the guests and smiled.

Zhong Miao walked out of the furnace-like forging field, and naturally restored his handsome and extraordinary demeanor of the children of the family, and in the face of Liu Biao, who had a good friend, he was polite in his words, although he was constantly complimenting, but he was neither humble nor arrogant, and he was a person who could speak.

After talking and laughing, Liu Biao put away Yingying's smile, glanced at the two staff members on the left and right, and asked:

"Yuan often comes here as a guest, and I am infinitely happy. But although I have been in Jingzhou for a long time, I also know that the Xiliang Ma Tengxing Division is fighting with Chang'an, and with the ability of Yuan Chang, I am not in the army to give advice, why did I come to Xiangyang? ā€

Zhong Xuanli straightened his sleeves, knowing that this was the key. Please talk about a smile, Zhong Xuan said:

"Although there are many soldiers and horses in Ma Teng, it is just an itch of ringworm, and there are countless capable people in Chang'an City, so why do you need to leave many words. On the contrary, when I came to visit this time, I really got a solemn explanation from my father-in-law, and I came to ask the lord for a position on behalf of my lord. ā€

Zhong Xuan's words made Liu Biao a little confused.

Everyone is a prince, although you are weaker and I am stronger, but I don't look down on you, and I even had good cooperation when I crusaded against Li Dao. But at this time, you are not busy fighting with people to the death, but send a messenger to me to ask for a serious job?

Although Liu Biao claimed to be the king of Xiangyang and set up a mansion, but at this time the regime was chaotic, and he, the king of Xiangyang, was also self-appointed, and how could he be qualified to reward Lin Zhoumu with the same identity as himself.

was confused, but Liu Biao thought about it. Isn't it that Zhong Yuan often saw that Chang'an couldn't hold on, so he secretly abandoned Lin Li to join him? That makes sense.

Liu Biao looked Zhong Xuan up and down with a critical eye, and secretly thought that Zhong Xuan was Yingchuan Junjie, if he accepted it, would it affect the stability of my Jingzhou?

Zhong Xuan was nervously waiting for Liu Biao to speak, but when he looked up, he saw his strange eyes, and he was also stunned, and then he woke up and said:

"The lord doesn't know, but the lord of my family is thinking that he can't afford to be in a vacant position, so he sent me to ask for the post of pastor of Jingzhou."

Liu Biao's pupils shrank suddenly, and from Zhong Xuan's words, he heard a different meaning.

Seeking the position of pastor of Jingzhou?

Joke. With Liu Biao's illusory title of Xiangyang King, how can He De be able to divide an orthodox Jingzhou pastor to others. But Lin Li also sent his subordinates to come at the juncture of the war, not to seek an official position, but to hug his thighs.

gave up the identity of a prince, and instead accepted the sub-feud, and since then he has been under Liu Biao.

Liu Biao couldn't sit quietly anymore, and didn't care that Zhong Xuan was in front of him, so he hurriedly pulled the two staff members to the back room.

"Zhong Xuan's words, how much do you think is true?"

The two brothers glanced at each other and said in unison:

"Lord, it's hard to tell if this matter is true or false, so I have to guard against it."

Liu Biao wiped his long beard obliquely, with some hesitation on his face.

If Lin Li is sincere in his investment, he can be said to be able to get the land of the three counties without much effort. Moreover, when my nephew went to the battle before, he also said that there are indeed many capable people in the army, if they are all under my command, why are you afraid of the little overlord in Jiangdong?

Who would be truly unambitious?

The hesitation on his face was just a flash, Liu Biao settled down, walked out of the back room, looked at Zhong Xuan, and laughed loudly:

"Lin Zhoumu has such a plan, how can I refuse. Now you and I are the same family, that Ma Teng is in Chang'an, even if it is disturbing my frontier, you go back, tomorrow I will transfer troops to Chang'an to help Lin Jingzhou. ā€

Zhong Xuan listened to his words and knew that he had made a promise, so he laughed in his heart, but said with a straight face:

"The lord doesn't have to worry about Ma Teng's affairs, there is a lord guarding Chang'an, and Ma Teng will be defeated. But Luoyang Cao Mengde has long been eyeing my Jingzhou land, watching its measures, I am afraid that the plot is not small, please pay attention to the lord. ā€

Wancheng, but it belongs to Nanyang County, Jingzhou.

If Cao Cao is bent on attacking Chang'an, I'm afraid Liu Biao will still be undecided, but Wancheng is within the scope of his Jingzhou, how can he let outsiders deceive him!

"Huang Zu, the general of Zhendong, raise 13,000 troops, and immediately go to Wancheng to garrison!"

"Liu Pan, the general of Zhenxi, has 13,000 soldiers, and immediately goes to Wancheng to garrison!"

"Zhennan General Cai Mao, 13,000 soldiers, immediately go to Wancheng to garrison!"

"Zhang Yun, the general of Zhenbei, will have 13,000 soldiers and immediately go to Wancheng to garrison!"

The four generals in the east, west, south, and north of the town were all Liu Biao's cronies, and the leaders were all the most elite under Liu Biao's account, with a total of 52,000 troops, crossing the river and going to Wancheng to suppress Cao Cao.

This is the number of soldiers and willfulness.
