"Cao Cao and Liu Bei both sent letters asking us to join forces with them, you say, which one should I help?"

The river was vast and flowed eastward, Sun Quan stood on the shore, and Lu Xun was behind him.

Lu Xun thought for a moment, knowing that Cao Cao and Liu Bei were going to fight in Hanzhong, so he said: "The war is ever-changing, today's friends are likely to be tomorrow's enemies, and today's enemies may become tomorrow's friends." ”

"For example, today, Cao Cao is still our biggest enemy, but since he entered Sichuan and Shu, Liu Bei's power has also been expanding, and his ambition has long been unable to hide, once he defeats Cao Cao in Hanzhong, then he will never be our ally again."

Lu Xun sighed silently, he looked at the young master of Jiangdong in front of him, who had already grown up in the troubled times, but his opponents were Cao Cao and Liu Bei, the two great heroes in the world, and he couldn't help but feel heartache.

He said firmly: "Now the lord has promised on both sides, but neither side will send troops, just look at the situation in Hanzhong, and then make a decision, if Cao Cao wins, we will take the land of Jingzhou, if Liu Bei wins, we will compete with Cao Cao for Hefei." ”

Forbearance, this is the path they must choose.

Sun Quan was speechless, he remembered that when Zhou Yu and Lu Su were there, they also said such things......

In June, Cao Cao ordered the mausoleum to be administered on the high ground outside the west gate of Yecheng, and discussed with Cheng Yu, Sima Yi and others about attacking Liu Bei.

In July, Cao Cao reorganized his army, marched west against Liu Bei, and ordered Cao Ren to go south to garrison Fancheng and take advantage of the situation to capture Jingzhou.

In this way, the western battlefield and the southern battlefield were formed, and the southern battlefield was solid, and Sun Quan was united to capture Jingzhou. In the western battlefield, Cao Cao personally led the troops, and Liu Bei would hunt in Hanzhong.

……

In the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an, on the western battlefield, Xiahou Yuan was defeated and killed at Yangping Pass. Cao Cao led the army out of the valley from Chang'an and marched into Hanzhong.

At Yangping Pass, Cao Cao and Liu Bei's armies were at loggerheads.

Liu Bei has won many big victories in the past few years and is eager to fight for a result, but Cao Cao knew that Liu Bei's expedition was here, and the transportation of grain and grass was inconvenient, so he did not move.

Liu Bei couldn't delay it any longer, and he waited for this day to think about it day and night, so he personally wrote the battle table and sent someone to Cao Ying.

This time, he finally didn't have to wronged himself anymore.

"Meng De is like a meeting, today I will borrow your words, please take a bath and purify your head, and hunt Hanzhong with me."

Cao Cao was feeling sorry for Xiahou Yuan, and at this time, this battle watch made him even more angry, he was angry, threw the battle watch to the ground, and shouted angrily: "Liu Bei, this guy, is bold, insulting me too much!" ”

Finally, a few days later, each side confronted each other with hundreds of thousands of troops.

The black and oppressive military array, with no end in sight, saw two big banners erected in front of Liu Bei's army, which read: Han and thieves do not stand together, and Wang Ye is not partial!

Liu Bei stepped forward and stood face to face with Cao Cao.

This is the first time since Jingzhou Xinye that they have talked at such a close distance.

The scenes of the past are like a passing cloud, in Yuan Shao's alliance of thieves, the two raised their glasses and drank each other, Cao Cao wanted to recruit Liu Bei's three brothers, but he saw that Liu Bei had great ambitions and was unwilling to succumb to himself.

In the battle of Xuzhou, Liu Bei and Lu Bu were at odds, and Cao Cao took Liu Bei in, knowing what he did to Lingxi, but he couldn't kill him directly.

Under the city, Liu Bei and Cao Cao were incompatible, and they both wanted each other to die, and the bad words had been said, and finally, Liu Bei fell into Cao Cao's strategy, causing the three brothers to separate.

Jiangjindu, Cao Cao watched Liu Qi rescue Liu Bei, but the cooked duck flew away again.

He tried to kill Liu Bei several times but didn't succeed, hated Cao Cao's cruelty and arrogance but was jealous that he could have the person he couldn't get, these two people are the most inseparable enemies in the world.

"Who's coming?"

This time, it was Cao Cao who spoke first, he didn't say Xuande, he hadn't seen him for a long time, but he asked who came.

Liu Bei smiled: "Brother Meng De is so forgetful, under Liu Bei, the word Xuande." ”

"Oh, it's Xuande." Cao Cao also smiled: "Is there anyone in this world who is more forgetful than you Liu Xuande?" As I did to you in the past, you will take revenge, rebel against the court and stand on your own. ”

"Your name is Han Xiang, you are actually a thief, and now you are usurping the throne, who is the thief, I'm afraid you know better than me."

"Do you really dare to fight me?"

"Zhan, on this day next year, I will come to your grave to pay respects."

With that to say, there is nothing more to say.

A battle between the two sides and the two sides used their favorite generals, and the battle began.

……

For several days, the front line was in a bloody battle, regardless of victory or defeat.

At night, Cao Cao looked at the battle situation map, quietly, and did not say a word.

Sima Yi accompanied him and didn't say a word.

After a while, Cao Cao suddenly spoke: "Sima Yi, I heard that you have a close relationship with Cao Pi, and you will assist Cao Pi in the future, and I need you to contribute more." ”

Sima Yi was good at hiding his thoughts, but he didn't dare to hide them with Cao Cao, and said bluntly: "King Wei, the ministers will do their best to help." ”

"It's nice to have a confidant." Cao Cao looked at him and suddenly smiled: "Confidant, can give people enough confidence." In the past, Lone had confidants, but now, they are all ahead of Lonely. ”

Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun Yu, their relationship with Cao Cao is like Cao Pi and Sima Yi today.

The old friends are gone away one by one, and the high-spirited self is also getting old, in this Yangping Pass, Cao Cao felt that he was old for the first time, and he also admitted it.

The feeling of being lonely even if there were people around him made him have to admit it.

Sima Yi couldn't help but be infected by his emotions, and was about to say something, but found that he was a little choked.

"Mengde, you still have me!" At this time, a figure who was also infected by Cao Cao's voice and almost cried appeared in front of the two.

Beneath the armor is the weak body, his spirit.

Cao Cao thought he was dazzled, because he had sternly explained that this time, Lingxi was not allowed to follow, but he didn't expect that she would disguise herself as a soldier and blend in.

"Where did you get your blood?" When Cao Cao saw Lingxi, he didn't ask anything else first, what he saw at a glance was the blood stains on her body, and his words were all sudden worry.

Lingxi came to see him in a hurry, and he didn't have time to clean himself up, so he had to tell the truth.

It stands to reason that Cao Pi sent a carriage to send her one one day after Cao Cao set out on the expedition.

But I didn't expect to rush here, but I didn't know that the two sides had already fought. She was wearing Cao Jun's battle armor, and was captured as a prisoner by Liu Bei's men.

"Liu Bei let you come back?" Cao Cao was shocked.

In Xuzhou that day, knowing that he might not be able to defeat himself, Liu Bei still used Lingxi as a hostage to fight for opportunities, and this time, they were almost comparable, if there was Lingxi, he could be said to be victorious, he knew how important Lingxi was to himself, how could he put Lingxi back.

This is not a new field, and there is no need to let go of the spirit rhino. Even Cao Cao himself can't do this in the face of this kind of opportunity!

"I'm sorry, Ahu, I thought I wouldn't be discovered." Lingxi said in annoyance.

"Alright, just come back, go clean up." Cao Cao stopped thinking and sent someone to take the Lingxi to freshen up, no matter what, seeing the Lingxi did make him feel a lot more at ease.

"Liu Bei really likes rhinos, and he can do this." This time, Cao Cao really admired Liu Bei and respected him as a real opponent.

"yes." Sima Yi was also shocked, Liu Bei actually gave up a chance to win against Cao Cao, he really likes Mrs. Huan, it can be said that he is very affectionate, and treats her as a person, not a bargaining chip.

Even now, when the two armies are fighting, he still escorts her back to the arms of his enemies!
