Chapter 69: Accelerating Progress
Cao Cao hurriedly stopped everyone and asked suspiciously, "Isn't this Su Le?" Why are you still so young? ”
"This ......" Su Le had an idea, and replied according to Cai Yan's thoughts: "I have eaten the elixir of immortality, so my appearance has not changed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"I see, is that good thing still there?" Cao Cao asked.
"That kind of good thing is something that can be met but not sought, and if you can't bear it in your body, you will die if you eat it, and among the people who found the elixir with me, you have eaten to death, Prime Minister, if you want to live forever, it is better to cultivate and become an immortal, that is the same result."
"I see, but I've killed too many people in my life, I'm afraid it's difficult to become an immortal."
Even if this Cao Cao is self-aware, Su Le remembered what was going on, and hurriedly said: "Ma Chao is about to rush over with the army, Prime Minister, hurry up and get on the boat." ”
"yes, but won't you come with me?" Cao Cao also tried to attract Su Le's attention.
"After I came to break off for the prime minister, I followed later, and if I was really delayed, I would go to Xudu or Yecheng to find your old man's house. Without further ado, I will leave here. ”
Saying that, Su Le and Ya Lifu used some witchcraft to delay the charge of Ma Chao's army, and Ma Chao saw that Cao Cao's last troops had also boarded the ship, so he ordered the arrows to be released.
After Cao Cao crossed the Yellow River, he smiled and said: "Today is a bit of a risk, and I almost died in the hands of Ma Chao's thief." ”
Su Le said that he would go to Cao Cao later, but in fact, it was all a lie, he originally wanted to have no contact with this old thief, even if he had to meet in the future, just make a reason, anyway, this old thief won't live for many years.
Then Cao Cao and Ma Chao won and lost each other, and the war turned into a stalemate stage, and gradually Cao Cao won some victories in local battles, not only occupying the advantage, but also deliberately holding the camp and not leaving.
Because Ma Chao and Han Sui and others were fighting in a coalition army, they hoped to decide the winner as soon as possible, so that the initiative would be in Cao Cao's hands.
Ma Chao and Han Sui, who were forced to be helpless, proposed to cede land and sue for peace, but the reason why Cao Cao conquested Ma Chao and Han Sui was to eliminate separatist forces like them, so he didn't look down on the little land offered by the two at all.
Cao Cao took the opportunity to resort to a divisive plan, he and Han Sui were filial piety at the same age, at that time it was probably a recommendation system, and the standard was mainly filial piety, so the relationship between the two of them should be equivalent to the later imperial examination system in the same year to obtain fame. The other two were also officials in the same dynasty, and Cao Cao also met Han Sui's father, so they can be said to be old friends.
Later, when the two armies were fighting, Han Sui proposed to see Cao Cao, so the two of them stepped forward on horseback, walked to the middle of the two armies, rode on horses to catch up on the old days, and talked and laughed for more than an hour.
A few days later, Han Sui once again offered to meet Cao Cao, and this time brought Ma Chao with him. Cao Cao was immediately not so easy-going, not only brought the army, but also set up a barrier in front of him, followed by Xu Chu, glaring at Ma Chao fiercely.
After the foreplay was completed, Cao Cao wrote a letter to Han Sui, which was scribbled and smeared, and there were many ambiguities, which made people suspicious at first glance. As expected, Ma Chao saw the letter and suspected that Han Sui and Cao Cao had some secret agreement to hide from him, so he no longer trusted Han Sui.
The 100,000 centaurs were not evenly matched, so they were naturally just a rabble, and Cao Cao defeated them very easily. At the same time, Liu Bei entered Shu, nominally to help Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang crusade against Zhang Lu in Hanzhong.
Liu Bei did not bring his wife Mrs. Sun (Sun Ren and Sun Shangxiang) with him when he entered Shu, Sun Shangxiang has a strong personality, and after marrying Liu Bei, he also brought a lot of female soldiers, plus the age difference between the two is too big and there is a generation gap, it is estimated that the relationship should not be too good. At this time, Sun Quan sent someone to pick up the little sister who was guarding the empty house, but Sun Shangxiang took the opportunity to return to Wu and never returned.
In April 212 AD, Sun Quan moved to Moling and changed his name to Jianye.
After Cao Cao pacified Ma Chao and Han Sui, he pointed the finger at Sun Quan, and an important event happened before the war: Xun Yu, an important advisor who had been loyally following Cao Cao, died mysteriously.
If Zhang He is Cao Cao's Han Xin, then Xun Yu is Cao Cao's Zhang Liang. Xun Yu was born in a famous family, not only has wisdom, but also ideals, and it was because Cao Cao supported the Han family that he followed him to fight in the north and south.
It's a pity that people can change, as Cao Cao's merits become bigger and bigger, his ambitions have also swelled sharply, and at this time Cao Cao wants to be the Duke of Wei. This is a very big step, because the duke can build a state, have his own temple and community, although the duchy is still a vassal state of the Han Empire on the surface, but Cao Cao, as the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, has already tilted the power of the government and the opposition, and the suzerainty cannot control his country within a country at all.
It is said that Cao Cao sent someone to test Xun Yu's idea in advance, and Xun Yu thought it was not appropriate to do so. So Cao Cao took advantage of the time to conquest Sun Quan, let Xun Yu go to the county to work in the army, and when Xun Yu came to the army, he took the opportunity to detain people and let Xun Yu be a staff officer. Then when it came to Shouchun, Xun Yu couldn't afford to fall ill, and died mysteriously not long after at the age of fifty.
In October of that year, Cao Cao attacked the mouth of the Xukou, but due to Sun Quan's full preparation, Cao Cao returned in vain.
At the same time, Liu Bei, who had been stationed at Jiameng Pass, saw that the opportunity had come, and took advantage of the battle between Sun Quan and Cao Cao to fight against Liu Zhang, who invited him to Shudi, and killed Liu Zhang's guard at Baishui Pass, and turned around to attack Fucheng.
After capturing Fucheng, Liu Bei feasted the generals and drank for fun. At this time, Liu Bei's military advisor was Pang Tong, and he said to Pang Tong: "How is it?" Happy today! ”
"Oh, people invited you to be a guest, but you took away other people's cities, what's there to be happy about?" Pang Tong said extremely disappointed.
"What words? King Wu is not benevolent, singing and dancing before and after? You get me out! ”
Liu Bei got angry and was very unkind to Pang Tong, and then Pang Tong went out. After a while, Liu Bei thought about what was wrong, and invited Pang Tong back, and when he came back, Pang Tongyi sat down with his ass and ate and drank, without apologizing or apologizing, as if nothing had happened.
So Liu Bei asked: "Eh, who is wrong with the argument between the two of us just now?" ”
"None of them are right." Pang Tong replied.
Liu Bei laughed, ate and drank, so it seems that Liu Bei is also a heartless thing, but in fact, he is relatively close to his lifelong enemy Cao Cao.
Liu Zhang, who led the wolf into the house, was unprepared, coupled with his weak nature, generous and benevolent, who was Liu Bei's opponent when he started a battle, the result was naturally defeat and retreat......
ps: Since the story of the Three Kingdoms after the Battle of Chibi is not so exciting, plus Su Le also pushed down all the women who can be pushed, so I will speed up the progress and end this volume as soon as possible. The rest are basically abbreviated in the form of chronology for the chronology and the three mouths and three kingdoms on the computer, which is actually quite tiring, but I still want to write until Liu Bei Baidi City is orphaned. At that time, Cao Cao and Liu Guan Zhang were all dead, and the rest were basically Zhuge Liang showing his skills.
ps2: Zhuge Liang is also powerless to return to the sky in the end, and he fell in Wuzhang Yuan after doing his best, and there are even fewer familiar things in the future, but the legend says that Zhuge Liang has a daughter named Zhuge Guo who became an immortal.
