Cao Ang looked around and smiled faintly.

Everyone didn't quite understand what Cao Ang meant, but because of their identity, they didn't dare to speak, for fear of provoking this young general.

Even Liu Wei was embarrassed to ask when he heard this.

"This group of old guys, usually one person talks more nonsense than one person, and now they don't dare to open their mouths?"

Liu Wei complained fiercely about these old guys in his heart.

Fortunately, in the end, Cao Cao spoke: "Zixuan, don't sell Guanzi, tell everyone what you think." ”

When Cao Ang heard this, he spoke softly: "I mean, as long as you declare war with Xiliang, you don't fight with them." ”

"Oh? Why is that? Cao Cao asked puzzled.

"In terms of the current situation in Xiliang, their interior is not monolithic, as long as there is some pressure from the outside, then they will fall apart internally."

"At that time, if we do it again, we will get twice the result with half the effort, easily take Xiliang, and take Chen Liuwang back."

After listening to this analysis, everyone understood what Cao Ang meant.

Declaring without war is putting pressure on you!

……

Soon, the war letter of the imperial court was sent to Xiliang.

One copy from Li Dao Guo Yan, and one copy from Ma Teng Han Sui.

"Has this court declared war on us? How could it be so fast, didn't they have to prepare in advance? Li Dao looked at the war book in his hand, his face full of horror.

Guo Yan's face on the side was also very ugly, the two brothers had fought with Cao Ang before, and now they have a shadow in their hearts.

Today's war book, although it is the war book of the imperial court, but in this world, who doesn't know that the royal family and the Cao family wear a pair of pants?

Li Dao took the war book, paced back and forth, then turned to Guo Yan and said, "Otherwise, let's surrender!" ”

When Guo Yan heard this, his face became very ugly: "Surrender? Do you think there will be any good end after the two of us surrender? ”

Li Dao thought of the conflict between them and Cao Ang before, and his heart suddenly cooled half.

At the moment, the two of them are fighting and dare not fight, and they can't descend.

At the same time, Ma Teng and Han Sui's side also got the war book.

Han Sui took the war book and began to read it: "Today's initial decision, you wait for the rebels in Xiliang to go perverse, in a vain attempt to coerce the false emperor to stand on his own, this is not tolerated by heaven and earth, today he will lead 500,000 righteous divisions, and send troops to Xiliang after the autumn harvest, aiming to sweep away the rebels and return Xiliang to Qingming!" ”

After listening to the content of the battle book, Ma Teng's face was also a little ugly.

With the name of Liu Xie, they recruited some new soldiers.

However, these recruits have not yet formed combat strength, and if they go to war in this way, it is tantamount to giving away their heads.

And now the soldiers who can go to the battlefield are only about 60,000, and in the face of the imperial army with nearly ten times the strength of their troops, it is difficult to resist danger and defend it.

At this time, Ma Chao, who was standing on the side, smiled disdainfully: "It's a good thing to say, he Cao Mengde and Cao Zixuan are not eyeing our people in Liangzhou." ”

"This war book is just an excuse, between us and Cao Cao, sooner or later there will be a war, if we have been recuperating with them, their territory is large, and in the long run, the gap between us and them can only get bigger and bigger."

"But now, they take the initiative to attack, and under the long-distance travel, then our chances of winning are much higher!"

When Ma Teng heard this, he looked at Ma Chao: "Meng Qi, it seems that you have a way to break the enemy?" ”

"Hahaha, my father can rest assured that there is no one worthy of my attention in the Cao army, whoever is the vanguard, I picked the other party with one shot when I was fighting, how can they fight?"

"Good, good!" Ma Teng shouted three times in a row, he naturally knew that his eldest son was strong in martial arts, and looking at the world, he was afraid that only Lu Bu could fight him.

But that Lu Bu definitely can't listen to the Cao family's dispatch, so it is feasible to break the enemy according to Ma Chao's method.

It's just that for the sake of insurance, Ma Teng still sent people to Li Dao and Guo Yan, and asked the two of them to lead their troops to fight against Cao Cao!

When Li Dao and Guo Yan learned that Ma Teng wanted to let their side lead troops to join the army, they were immediately unhappy.

"This Ma Teng, let us lead the troops, I'm afraid that when we fight against Cao Cao, we will be allowed to go first, and when the time comes, our family will be exhausted, and after repelling Cao Cao, we two brothers, I'm afraid there will be no place to stand."

"That's right, but if we don't go, then we can't say it."

Li Dao and Guo Yan are in a dilemma.

The original Li Dao and Guo Yan, after a period of comfortable life, finally fought for power and parted ways.

But now the two of them, all the way hard, all the way, there is no conflict, but unprecedented unity.

After seeing Li Wei pacing back and forth, he said to Guo Yan: "I think, let's surrender!" ”

When Guo Yan heard this, he looked at Li Dao with an ugly face: "I think that even if the two of us vote, I am afraid that Cao Cao and Cao Ang will kill the two of us." ”

"Of course you can't vote like this, when Lu Bu voted for Dong Zhuo, didn't he still want to take Ding Yuan's head, but he didn't succeed as a horseman."

When Li Dao said this, his eyes were cloudy.

Guo Yan on the side instantly understood: "Brother Li, do you want to make a move against Na Ma Teng and Han Sui?" ”

"That's right, they want us to be cannon fodder, that's impossible, he's unkind, don't blame me for being unjust, let's take the heads of Ma Teng and Han Sui and dedicate them to Cao Cao, that's a great achievement, the mistakes we made before the two brothers are nothing."

"Okay, then listen to Brother Li, but the two of us still have to plan well about this matter."

Immediately afterwards, Guo and Li began to plot.

……

At this time, in Luoyang City, the Cao family meeting hall.

Cao Cao was sitting on the side, looking at Cao Ang, who was surrounded by a group of generals, with a smile on his face.

Like the Xiahou brothers, the Cao family brothers and other generals, they all surrounded Cao Ang.

There is no other reason, just to compete for the vanguard position when the expedition is made.

And Cao Ang has already chosen someone other than this vanguard, but he is not in a hurry to go out now, so he has not announced who this candidate is.

Although Ma Chao's age is only a double ten, he has grown up in the army since he was a child, and his combat power has far surpassed that of other generals.

Like the Xiahou brothers and the Cao brothers, I'm afraid they are really not opponents.

Especially Xiahoudun! Let him be a pioneer, basically can't win.

It's just that Cao Ang was embarrassed to say it at this time, and he could only find an excuse to distract the attention of these energetic generals.
