Chapter 136: Cao Cao's Response

After the battle this spring, Yuan Shu suffered a great loss of vitality, and there was no way to use force against Lu Bu in the short term.

What's more, now Yuan Shu hates Cao Cao to the core, Yuan Shu has obtained the jade seal of the country, and he is bent on becoming the emperor.

As a result, he lost fifty or sixty thousand horses at once, and this included a pillar like Ji Ling, which was equivalent to cutting off one of his legs in the dragon chair.

Yuan Shu's IQ naturally understood that this was Cao Cao's mistake.

immediately wrote a letter to Yuan Shao, asking to flank Cao Cao together, and if Cao Cao could not be killed, he would have to be frightened.

Lu Bu was not idle, and plucked his old father-in-law, Kong Rong, and wrote an essay against Cao Cao.

Needless to say, Kong Rong's writing is extremely vicious, bullying the Son of Heaven and hundreds of officials, and asking people with lofty ideals all over the world to rise up and attack him.

Chen Gong was taken aback after reading this article: "No wonder the lord has not gone to the capital three or four times, because he does not want to be the target of everyone." Judging from the current situation, whoever has mastered Emperor Xian is the second and third Dong Zhuo, and everyone in the world will have to crusade. ”

Lu Bu shook his head: "Since Dong Zhuo, this kind of crusade against the text is no longer very useful. Because of the princes of all walks of life, everyone lives their own lives. It is difficult to let them fight, either to move their vital interests, or to give them enough benefits. So it is also to scare and scare Cao Cao. ”

"That's not going to work, we'll have to find a few who dare to come out."

Chen Gong and Lu Bu discussed for an afternoon and decided to support Xiliang Ma Teng and Han Sui. How can there be tens of thousands of Xiliang troops of these two people, and the Xiliang army has strong combat effectiveness, and Ma Teng and Cao Cao are the kind that die and never die.

Lu Bu sent the text and weapons to Ma Teng, and sent 20,000 gun heads to Ma Teng.

He wrote a letter to Liu Biao again, asking Liu Biao to send troops.

Liu Biao always feels weak, but in fact, it is an illusion.

Liu Biao is capable of writing and martial arts, and when he was young, he was also quite good, and his martial arts were very powerful.

Rode into Jingzhou alone, killed a group of thieves at a banquet, controlled Jingzhou, and later defeated Sun Jian, expelled Yuan Shu, and completely gained a firm foothold in Jingzhou.

Liu Xian is sitting on the land of Jingzhou, the land of fish and rice, the territory is quite large, with a population of millions, and a large number of sailors and cavalry.

That is also a heroic figure on the Weizhen side, and Lu Bu didn't expect a letter to move Liu Biao, but Lu Bu has always done things with great fanfare.

Not long after the negotiators left, the teahouse in Jinan County began to hype.

The news spread very definitely, saying that Wenhou Lu Thorn Shi supported Ma Teng with 10,000 taels of gold, 20,000 spear heads, and 20,000 sabers. promised Liu Biao a heavy gift and asked the three families to attack Cao Cao together.

Jinan County was the focus of Cao Cao's meticulous work, and the detailed work reported the information to Cao Cao in Xuchang as soon as possible.

Cao Cao has won all the battles against others in the past two years, but everyone who has fought against Lu Bu has lost.

Now Cao Cao, Guo Jia, Xiahoudun, Cao Ren, Cao Hong and others are also allergic to Lu Bu, and when they heard about Lu Bu, their heads buzzed.

Cao Cao handed the information to Guo Jia, and Guo Jia handed it to Liu Bei next to him after reading it.

That's right, it's Liu Bei.

In the spring, Ji Ling attacked Xiapi, Liu Bei fled in embarrassment, but there was nowhere to go, and entered Cao Cao's territory, and thousands of soldiers and horses were soon surrounded by Cao's army.

Liu Bei was also single, and without saying a word, he surrendered.

At the beginning of the Great War against Tiger Prison Pass, Liu Bei and Cao Cao had a good relationship, and Cao Cao valued Guan Yu very much.

After Liu Bei finished reading the information, he didn't make a sound, and looked at Cao Cao quietly.

Cao Cao touched his beard: "Xuande, which one do you think Lu Bu is singing?" ”

"Back to my lord, I served in Pingyuan County for a while. Qingzhou's strength is good, but he will definitely not give Ma Teng ten thousand taels of gold, because Lu Bu is reluctant. Under the rule of Qingzhou, even Chen Gong's family had to grow vegetables and raise pigs, and there were floods and droughts and locust plagues over the years, so he didn't have so much money for Ma Teng and Liu Biao. This is nothing more than a bluff, Ma Teng may send troops with this little profit, but Liu Biao will not send troops, just be careful. ”

Cao Cao laughed: "Hahaha, Lu Bu'er, I have grown up very quickly recently, and I have begun to play with my heart." Bonghyo, what do you think. ”

Guo Jia coughed twice: "Lord, the text released by Lu Bu this time is still a very big blow to us. Ma Teng and Liu Biao can be careful, but Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao should not be underestimated. As for Lu Bu, he won't use troops against us in the short term, because his goal is here. ”

Guo Jia pointed to Liaodong County in the north.

"Oh, Liaodong County, if Lu Bu wants to fight horses, why don't you fight Youzhou, you have to fight Liaodong County?"

"Liaodong Taishou Gongsun Du and Gongsun Zan have always been unharmonious, and the caravans of Qingzhou often suffer unfair treatment in Liaodong County. The most important thing is that Lu Bu has built large shipyards in Donghai County and Donglai County, and there are also 3,000 naval troops trained in Weishan Lake, so it is not difficult for Lu Bu to fight across the sea. ”

Cao Cao frowned, his hand couldn't help touching his beard, and he looked at Liu Bei again.

"Qingzhou buys such a large number of horses, according to a detailed report, most of the horses from the north are ordinary horses, and less than thirty percent can be used as military horses. Qingzhou is an agricultural area, and the speed of the bred horses cannot be improved, so it is difficult to become a first-class military horse? ”

"The lord doesn't know that Qingzhou has made so many horses to produce mules from horses and donkeys, which have great strength, eat less, can pull carts, and can plough the land. In order to realize the use of agriculture and animal power. ”

Cao Cao's eyes flashed thoughtfully.

Liu Bei chuckled psychologically, did he overdo it?

Cao Cao secretly wrote down the mules that Liu Bei said, and prepared to ask people to buy some mules from Qingzhou to see if they were really so powerful.

As Liu Bei and Guo Jia analyzed, Lu Bu's essay dealt a very powerful blow to Cao Cao's reputation.

Lu Bu had paper, as well as engraving printing, in addition to giving it to all the princes, but also distributed to various cities, up to the officials and nobles, down to the poor people, there is no ignorance of Cao Cao's hijacking of the Son of Heaven.

It's just that the thunder and rain are small in various places, only Xiliang Ma Teng and Jingzhou Liu Biao began to train their troops and prepare to attack Xuchang to rescue Emperor Xian.

Autumn is coming, and although the autumn tiger is still powerful, it is not so hot.

Lu Bu began to secretly transfer troops, 3,000 cavalry from Huaxiong's department, 2,000 cavalry from Hao Meng's department, 1,000 camps and 3,000 sailors from Gaoshun's department, and successively transferred them to the seaside of Donglai County.

Why Lu Bu wants to attack Gongsun Du across the sea also has a long-term plan, first of all, Gongsun Du is a little unmartial arts, just started to form an alliance with Lu Bu, and said that Qingzhou would trade together, but he never thought that seeing Qingzhou's high profits, he began to return again, arbitrarily raising prices and taxes, making Qingzhou merchants miserable, and suing Chen Gong when he went back.
