Liu Bei didn't expect that some people in the court would question his identity as a 'Han clan relative'.

This is a big trouble for him, because there is indeed no name of him and his father on the Zongdi.

Yang Xiu quietly observed Liu Bei, didn't see anything from his face, and was also curious in his heart, whether this person was pretending to be a member of the Han family.

Pretending to be a member of the Han clan is a big crime!

The two chatted for a few words, and then came to the temporary school martial arts ground.

"Mengde!" Yuan Shao laughed, just like the first time he saw him, and the old friend reunited.

Cao Cao also smiled, raised his hand and said, "General Hou, why did Yaxing come to the school martial arts field?" ”

Yuan Shao turned to Liu Bei and Guan Yu behind him with his hands behind his back, and said, "The old man heard that Yun Chang met an opponent, and he was very curious, so he came to watch the battle. ”

Liu Bei smiled and said politely: "The latter general praised it falsely, and the second brother is a bit brute force." ”

Yuan Shao looked appreciative and said: "The old man seems to be otherwise, Yun Chang has the style of a general, let's play, the old man is a little impatient." ”

Guan Yu didn't say a word, carried a knife, turned over on his horse, and galloped in.

Cao Cao looked at Guan Yu's back and nodded secretly, this person is indeed extraordinary.

On the school martial arts field, Guan Yu and Xu Chu just had a simple etiquette, the swords and hairs collided, the sound of horses' hooves was like thunder, and they fought together.

Yuan Shao was in the center, Cao Cao was on the right, and Liu Bei was on the left, and the three of them watched the battle between the two on the field side by side.

Yuan Shao's mind was not on the field at all, and the afterglow swept over the left and right people, and said with a smile: "I heard that Meng De intends to divide the troops?" ”

"The last general has met General Hou, Liu Yuanjun, and General Cao." Before Yuan Shao's words fell, Sun Ce strode over.

Seeing this, Liu Bei was a little surprised: Didn't Sun Ce tell Yuan Shao?

Yuan Shao remained motionless, his smile remained unchanged, and said, "Bo Fu, you also intend to divide troops with the old man?" ”

Sun Ce was stunned, looked at the backs of the three of them, still raised his hand, and said, "The last general is humble and acts according to orders." ”

Cao Cao smiled and turned his head, and said to Yuan Shao: "General Hou, our army is nearly 200,000, and we can completely divide our troops and force Dong Zhuo to divide our troops and defend them. ”

"Liu Yuanjun thinks so too?" Yuan Shao put his hands behind his back and looked calm.

Liu Bei hesitated and said: "'Conquering Dong Zhuo' is a big plan set by the imperial court, if you want to divide the army, you must report to the Great Sima Mansion." ”

Cao Cao was not surprised, and said: "The general is outside, and the king's order is not subject to it." I'll make a decision on the spot, and I'll report it afterwards. ”

Yuan Shao stood up straight, looked solemn, and said, "The old man doesn't allow it!" The old man is the commander of the imperial court, and without my order, no one is allowed to divide troops or act without authorization! ”

Cao Cao's face was expressionless, and he slowly raised his hand.

The scene, the silent saber rattling.

Sun Ce's identity was too low, and he kept standing behind the three of them, staring at Cao Cao's back-raised hand, and his face couldn't help but flash a trace of solemnity.

If, Yuan Shao broke with Cao Cao, which side should he stand on?

Although the imperial court is powerful, Wu County is part of Yangzhou, and Yuan Shao is a big trouble by his side!

Liu Bei was even more nervous, secretly calming down, trying his best to think of a way to deal with it.

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are the main forces to woo Dong, and once these two people fight among themselves, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Although he is nominally a pastor of Xuzhou and has a very high status, in front of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, he still bows his head, and the weight of his words is not enough at all.

Yuan Shao didn't turn his head, and his eyes couldn't help but become gloomy when he watched Cao Cao's movements.

If this Cao Cao openly divides his troops, it will be a huge blow to his prestige, and it will also cause twists and turns in the 'Battle of Dong'.

What Yuan Shao wants now is to encircle all the princes, take the opportunity to expand his strength, and at the same time continue to accumulate prestige and prestige through the battle against Dong.

Destroying Dong Zhuo is Yuan Shao's established goal, and if he destroys Dong Zhuo, he will be able to occupy Yuzhou and Xuzhou without much effort, and then go south, annex Jingzhou and Jiaozhi, and divide the world with the imperial court!

But Cao Cao's division of troops will completely disrupt his plan, can Dong succeed? Can he successfully occupy Yu, Xu, Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others in the follow-up If they retain their strength, how can he rest assured that he will go south?

"Good!"

Suddenly, Xiahoudun behind him burst out and roared.

A group of people looked up, only to see that on the school martial arts field, Guan Yu and Xu Chu had already killed each other.

"Not bad."

Yuan Shao suppressed the anger in his heart, and said with a smile: "Meng De, Xu Chu, is a general. Xuande Gong, this cloud is long, it is even more rare, in the future war, don't be stingy, you want to borrow me for it......"

Cao Cao listened to Yuan Shao's title change again and again, and a smile appeared on his face, and said to Yuan Shao: "The rear general has praised it falsely. ”

Liu Bei saw that the atmosphere was relaxed, and hurriedly said: "General Hou, there will be heavy rain recently, why don't we march into the army as soon as possible?" ”

Yuan Shao nodded heavily and said, "What Xuande Gong said is reasonable. I have discussed with other people to send troops tomorrow, and I have not yet decided that I will have a banquet for everyone tonight to discuss together, what does Meng De think? ”

Cao Cao immediately raised his hand and said in a deep voice: "After the enlightenment, the general, the last general asks for orders, thinks it is the vanguard, and sends troops to the county!" ”

Yuan Shao stretched out his hand and pressed Cao Cao's hand, with a solemn expression, and said: "Meng De is the heart of the country, and he has always admired it, so Meng De, Xuande Gong, and Bo Fu will be the vanguard, and they will send troops tomorrow to attack Peiguo based on Qian County!" ”

Cao Cao's eyes were half narrowed, and he did not hesitate, and said, "The last general will take the order!" ”

Liu Bei and Sun Ce naturally didn't say anything, and then raised their hands and said, "Take the order!" ”

Yuan Shao was full of smiles, but his heart was full of murderous intentions, and he was about to speak, when he suddenly heard loud cheers on the school martial arts field.

Everyone turned their heads, only to see Guan Yu, Xu Chu seemed to be angry, the two of them no longer left their hands, they fought hard, the horses under them were a little unable to hold on, and they retreated.

"Stop,"

Yuan Shao lost interest and said, "We are allies, why fight so far?" ”

Cao Cao didn't seem to hear anything in Yuan Shao's words, and said to Xiahoudun: "Let them stop." ”

Xiahou responded and jumped off the school martial arts field and shouted to stop the two.

At this time, Le Jin rushed over and said urgently: "General, it's not good, Dong Zhuo suddenly sent troops to attack Qiaoxian!" ”

Cao Cao's face changed greatly, and he turned around sharply and said, "What is the situation now?" ”

Yuan Shao, Liu Bei and others also changed their expressions, staring at Le Jin with different eyes.

Le Jin didn't panic, but his breath was short, and he said: "I don't know yet, Cao Hong sent someone to report as soon as possible, saying that Guo Yan is the main one, with 10,000 soldiers and horses." ”

Cao Cao quickly calmed down, calmly and calmly, his long and narrow eyes were half-narrowed, and after a while, he raised his hand and said to Yuan Shao: "I have two thousand soldiers and horses in Qian County, and I should be fine for a while." After the general, the subordinate asked for orders and immediately sent troops. ”

Yuan Shao looked gloomy, held Cao Cao's hands, and said: "I wish Meng Deqi a victory and strengthen the prestige of our army!" ”

Cao Cao nodded heavily, then turned on his horse and galloped away.

Liu Bei, Sun Ce and Yuan Shao greeted each other, and urgently chased each other to order troops.

Yuan Shao looked at the backs of several people, his expression slowly converged, indifferent and gloomy, and the killing machine floated.

Xu You came over at this time and said with a smile: "General, isn't this my plan?" Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Ce are not of the same mind as the general, and they fight hard with Dong Zhuo, and the general waits for work, which is just a meal on the general's plate. ”

Director Zhang observed Yuan Shao's face and said, "General, there is no need to be angry, Cao Cao is a lawless character, otherwise he will not be tolerated by the imperial court." When he and Dong Zhuo were exhausted, he could only come to the general again. ”

Yuan Shao's anger in his heart was uncontrollable, and he moved his killing intent towards Cao Cao, and his tone was even colder, and said: "You don't understand, Cao Cao, who looks at the wolf and looks at the wolf, seems to be reckless, but in fact he is scheming, not a mortal!" If you can't control him, he'll be in great trouble! ”

Xu You's smile remained unchanged and said, "What the general said is reasonable. Cao Cao can only win, not lose, because he has to work hard at any cost. That Dong thief is easy to deal with, but if there are three long and two short, the court will not be surprised. ”

Yuan Shao's eyebrows moved slightly, he understood Xu You's words, his expression was a little soothed, and said: "Ziyuan, you continue to send people to keep an eye on it and check whether Dong Zhuo really sent someone to attack Qian County." ”

Director Zhang was taken aback and said, "The general is suspicious, this is a conspiracy set up by Cao Cao?" ”

Yuan Shao sneered and said, "I got the news that they are going to divide the army, it's a little too fast!" ”

"Yes!" Xu You bowed slightly, raised his eyelids, and stared at Yuan Shao secretly, his heart tightened.

In the past, he always felt that Yuan Shao was very easy to fool, but now he realized that this person is not good at stubble, and he is very thoughtful!

At this moment, Zhuge Xuan, Liu Xuan and others got the news, and hurriedly ran over and talked around Yuan Shao.

"General Hou, send troops! Can't wait! ”

"That Dong Zhuo actually dared to take the initiative to attack, it was really bold, and he had to fight back!"

"General Hou, I ask for my order to be the vanguard and frustrate Dong Zhuo's spirit!"

……

Yuan Shao has regained his former majesty and gentleness, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry, the old man has ordered Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Ce to be the vanguard, lead an army of 50,000, and send troops to meet the enemy in Qian County. ”

When everyone heard this, they were relieved and praised Yuan Shao for his wisdom.

Yuan Shao was laughing on the surface, but he was still very angry in his heart.

This kind of anger is far from being comparable to others - Cao Cao's calculations are especially hateful!

On the other side, Cao Cao quickly reorganized his troops, and after joining Liu Bei and Sun Ce, he slaughtered towards Qian County.

It was only at this time that Liu Bei was alert, and his eyes kept looking at Cao Cao's back.

Guan Yu glanced at the tiger's mouth wrapped in gauze and said, "Big brother, what's wrong?" ”

Liu Bei sighed lightly and said: "Cao Cao told me to divide the troops on the front foot, and Yuan Shao on the back foot will know, now, send troops?" ”

After listening to Liu Bei's words, Guan Yu thought about it carefully, and said: "What does the eldest brother mean, Cao Cao is trying to send troops as soon as possible, and the so-called division of troops is just for Yuan Shao to see?" ”

Liu Bei nodded and said, "It should be so, Cao Cao's move, Yuan Shao can't delay." At the latest, two days later, troops will inevitably be dispatched. ”

"In this way, the matter of Qian County should be false." Guan Yu Danfeng's eyes moved, and he also looked up at Cao Cao.

This thick eyebrows and big eyes, Cao Cao, who seems to be reckless, is actually so insidious?

Compared with Liu Bei, Sun Cejun was much quieter, following Cao Cao's right side, quiet and silent.

Cao Cao, who was walking in the front, looked the most relaxed, holding the map in his hand and examining it carefully.

Guo Jia rode a horse and followed aside, his face was a little pale, looking ahead, there was always a trace of worry in his eyes.

Cao Cao didn't know how long he looked at it, and then he came back to his senses, saw Guo Jia's face, and said with concern: "Fengxiao, quit drinking again?" ”

Guo Jia is very addicted to alcohol, and once he quits drinking, he will have a serious 'backlash', as if he is seriously ill.

Guo Jia smiled slightly and said, "There is no good wine, and it tastes bad to drink." By the way, the general has thought of a countermeasure? ”

"When I get to Qian County, I'll go to Fengxiao to find it."

Cao Cao didn't think much about it, said this, and slowly sank into the color: "Fengxiao, judging from the spies' investigation and report, from Qian County to Xiang County, it seems that the road is smooth, and there are still many dangers, once Dong Zhuo avoids the battle and defends to the death, it is easy to drag the war until winter." ”

Guo Jia had already studied it and said: "What I'm worried about is not so, we add Yuan Shao, there are many soldiers and horses, it is nothing more than dividing the troops to bypass, but the elite of Xiliang in Dong Zhuo's hands." Our coalition forces seem to be immense, but they are also scattered, and the people's hearts are different, and once there is a setback, the morale of the army will inevitably be greatly lost, and no one dares to advance, and then it will be the most dangerous. ”

Cao Cao frowned and said, "So, we can't be defeated?" ”

Guo Jia nodded lightly, coughed again, and said: "Therefore, the general must be fast, the soldiers are fast, and the morale will be beaten. Although Yuan Shao had an enmity with Dong Zhuo to exterminate the clan, and he also had a heart for Yu and Xu, once he encountered a setback, it was inevitable that his mind would change and let go of Dong Zhuo, but he turned south and threw Dong Zhuo's big trouble to the general and the imperial court, in order to plan for the future. ”

Cao Cao's expression was solemn, staring at the map and thinking silently.

If he exchanged with Yuan Shao, he would also be inclined to what Guo Jia said, let go of Dong Zhuo for the time being, concentrate on attacking Jing and Jiao, and leave Dong Zhuo to the imperial court to watch from the wall, in order to benefit the fisherman.

Fortunately, now that the general trend of courting Dong has been achieved, Yuan Shao does not have enough reason to retreat easily.

Cao Cao pondered for a long time and said, "Fengxiao, I want to spare Qian County and go south from Liang State, what do you think?" ”

Guo Jiaqiang endured the discomfort in his chest, shook his head and said: "A while ago, Yanzhou Huang Zhong sent troops south, and it didn't take long for him to retreat. And that Xuzhou Lu Bu, and Dong Zhuo have already formed an alliance, from the south to the north or ambushed, now, the general can only march extremely fast, hit Dong Zhuo by surprise, force Dong Zhuo to retract, and then gather a large army, a battle is decided, not long delayed! ”

Cao Cao nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly turned his head again, stared at Guo Jia, and said with some surprise: "Fengxiao, you have a lot of words today, did you think of anything?" ”

Guo Jia was stunned, shook his head with a smile, and said: "The general doesn't need to think about it, I just think about it, this battle is very important to the general, and he can only win and not lose. ”

When Cao Cao heard these words, his heart relaxed, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look in the direction of Luoyang City.

In this battle, if he loses, those people in Luoyang City who have long been eyeing him will strip him to the bone and dismantle him.
