Good news, for Cao Cao, this is indeed rare good news.

What does it mean for Yuan Shao to intervene in this matter? First of all, it shows that Yuan Shao believes it, and Yuan Shao must also believe that Sun Ce is not dead, otherwise he would not have sent someone to find Sun Ce. Then, Yuan Shao not only believed it, but he also cared about it very much. Yes, what is the purpose of Sun Ce's fraudulent death? The purpose is to watch him Yuan Shao and Cao Cao fight to the death, the snipe and the clam fight, and the fisherman profits. With Yuan Shao's character, now that he has seen through Sun Ce's conspiracy, how can he still take the initiative to be fooled? Therefore, before Sun Ce's side comes to a conclusion, Yuan Shao, the key will not fight Cao Cao.

For Cao Cao, this is not good news, what else is good news?!

What Cao Cao needs most now is time! Cao Cao was located in the Central Plains, where there was a lot of war, and many defense facilities were too late to be built. Moreover, the soldiers who were taken away from Xuzhou some time ago have not yet been fully integrated, and there are still problems with combat effectiveness. In addition, there are also newly recruited Zhang Xiu and others, and they don't have to say anything about whether they are obedient or not. It can be said that Cao Cao was not ready for a full-scale battle at all, just because the enemy came and had to passively respond to the battle.

Of course, this is only one aspect. On the other hand, if this rare time gap can be used to solve the problem of offering the emperor, when Cao Cao really wants to go on an expedition, he can avoid worries.

"Then lord, are we going to send someone out to find Sun Ce too?" Asked next to him.

"Pie! Of course you have to send! Send more useless people out and make a lot of noise for me. Cao Cao said immediately.

Cao Cao's thoughts were similar to Sun Quan's, he didn't expect to be able to catch Sun Ce, as long as he muddied the waters. Cao Cao's focus was obviously on the interior, on the upcoming decisive battle with Yuan Shao. As for Sun Ce's side, deliberately make some momentum, make some moves, and give all forces, especially Yuan Shao and Sun Quan, some nervousness to them, it is best to focus all your attention on that side, I don't know what he Cao Cao is doing secretly, then it would be better.

"It's big and big, and it's small." Cao Cao pondered for a while, and finally decided, "Fengxiao, why don't you go in person." When necessary, you should understand what to do. ”

Cao Cao glanced at Guo Jia. What is the necessary time? It's like saying that Sun Ce really fell into the hands of Yuan Shao, at that time, if he couldn't grab someone, in order to prevent Yuan Shaozhen from taking Sun Ce away, he would rather kill him on the spot!

This kind of decisiveness and courage to adapt to the situation, except for Guo Jia, few people in Cao Ying can do it.

????????????

LU Jiang,

"I heard that now that Yuan Shao has made a move, Cao Cao has also made a move, the matter is so big, it's a shame that you can still sit still." Dou Yuru said to Sun Quan.

"If you don't make trouble to this extent, how can you confuse the real with the fake?" Sun Quan said without any worry. It's not that Sun Quan isn't worried about Sun Ce's safety, but everyone will be led astray by him.

"So, all the clues about Sun Ce recently were arranged by you?" Dou Yuru squinted and said.

Sun Quan shrugged his shoulders and admitted,

"In fact, it's not just me, but other forces are also suspected of inducing. Now it's almost hard to tell if the news is true or fake. ”

"But whenever there is news, someone will confirm it. I heard that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao sent a lot of people, and each of them was led by capable people, and some small tricks were not a long-term strategy. Dou Yuru couldn't help but say.

Sun Quan nodded,

"So, it's time for us to close the net and move on to the second round."

"How are you going to close the net?" Dou Yuru asked, "I thought that before Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's people appeared, our plan would unfold. As a result, you have been dragging it out until now. With so many pairs of eyes staring at me now, how to act? ”

To put it simply, Sun Quan and Dou Yuru's plan was to pretend first, and then pretend that Sun Ce fell into the hands of the Demon Gate. Then, the Demon Gate threatened Sun Quan with this, and Sun Quan was forced to compromise, which confirmed the "fact" that Sun Ce had indeed fallen into the hands of the Demon Gate.

But now, there are too many forces in that area. You arrange a fake Sun Ce, not to mention that it is likely to be recognized, even if it is not recognized, in the eyes of the strong people, how can you successfully take the hostages away?

In Dou Yuru's view, it is precisely because of Sun Quan's delay that the difficulty of this play has skyrocketed.

"The more this happens, the more they will believe that it is true, and seeing is believing. Otherwise, no matter how we act, there will be a lot of doubters. Sun Quan explained, "As long as Cao Cao, no, to be precise, as long as Yuan Shao still has a trace of doubt, then our play will fail." As long as Yuan Shao believed it, whether Cao Cao believed it or not, as soon as Yuan Shao attacked, Cao Cao had to be forced to fight. ”

"So, are you sure that my people from the Demon Gate will take away a fake Sun Ce in front of everyone?" Speaking of this, Dou Yuru's heart suddenly moved, and she reacted, "Zuo Ci?!" ”

Yes, with Zuo Ci's means, whether it is to confuse the real with the false, or to take people away in the midst of the strong people, it can be completely done. It's just that Dou Yuru is very strange, why does Zuo Ci repeatedly help Sun Quan?

Only Sun Quan himself knows that after this time, no matter whether Sun Ceping is safe or not, he and Zuo Ci are completely clear. This will be the last time Zuo Ci will help Sun Quan. From now on, the two will only nod their heads, and no one will owe anything to them.

"You don't have to worry about what I do." Sun Quan replied, without affirming or denying that Zuo Ci would help, "What you have to worry about now is that the real test is coming." According to the information I received, Zhou Yu secretly left from the Jiangxia front line and was rushing to the Lujiang River. ”

Dou Yuru was thoughtful, and suddenly looked at Sun Quan with an ambiguous smile,

"So, you even want to hide it from Zhou Yu. Sun Zhongmou, you can really make a good calculation. ”

Dou Yuru believes that this kind of thing is definitely designed by Sun Quan from the beginning!

On the surface, this play between the two is to protect Sun Ce; Thinking deeper, this is through the battle between the Demon Gate and Sun Quan, to show people the current chaos in Jiangdong and Sun Quan's self-care, as long as Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are deceived, then Yuan Shao will immediately take the opportunity to attack Cao Cao, so that Sun Quan can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and then the fisherman will benefit.

Of course, if it was just the above two, Sun Quan didn't need to hide it from Zhou Yu at all, after all, Zhou Yu was a person who could definitely be trusted. But now, Sun Quan is even going to hide Zhou Yu, what is the purpose? It is very obvious that Sun Quan's purpose is to ask for the power in Zhou Yu's hands in disguise!

For example, if Sun Quan wants to do something, he orders directly, and Zhou Yu may not listen to him. But through the mouth of the Demon Gate, Sun Ce's life was used as a threat, and at that time, Zhou Yu had to listen to it! How did Zhou Yu think that this was not the meaning of the Demon Gate at all, but Sun Quan's instructions!

"He really deserves to be the number one prodigy in the world, killing three birds with one stone. But why should I help you? Dou Yuru said, Sun Quan took so many benefits this time, she naturally wanted something.

Sun Quan shook his head,

"You're not helping me. You should understand that if Zhou Yu knows the truth, he is not as soft-hearted as me. In the end, I'm afraid you won't be able to get any benefits. ”
