Three Kingdoms: The opening incorporates Li Cunxiao

Chapter 403: Two fronts advance together, storm is coming

tread! ~Tap! ~Tap! ~

Heavy steps sounded from outside the tent. The nine-foot strong man was covered in blood and his face was covered with mud.

After pausing for a moment outside the tent, he opened the tent and entered, throwing a bloody head on the ground, kneeling down and clasping his fists:

"Report to my lord, Yuzhang defeated them, beheaded more than 5,000 people, and surrendered more than 8,000 people. The head of the guard general Lu Jing is here."

The man in Chinese clothes in the tent was none other than Cao Cao.

"This battle should be regarded as the first meritorious service. Let's record the merits for now. When we return to Yecheng, we will reward him separately."

Hua Xiong looked relieved and bowed to the ground again. The voice of the nine-foot tall man was actually choked with sobs: "In the end, I am only a defeated general. I dare not take the credit. It is all thanks to the support of the lord and the hussar general who will not give up. I will be the leader of the Wei Dynasty. I will be wiped out and die." Don’t give up!”

Cao Cao got up and went down to the hall in person to help Hua Xiong.

"Generals, obey the order!"

The generals from the two columns on the left and right came out and clasped their fists: "Here we are!"

"Han Sheng, since Zi Qian ordered you to deploy defenses along the Yangtze River, you will lead a thousand clouds and ten thousand imperial guards to march to Hefei. After conquering Hefei, you will be the front station, spread your troops across the Yangtze River, and block the Yangtze River. Cao Xiu and Pang De will be your deputies. "

"The general will wait to receive his orders."

"Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and Hua Xiong. The three of you gather the rest of the troops and follow Guxi to Shouchun."

"Order!"

The young man behind Cao Cao looked ugly. After hearing Cao Cao's order, he raised his hands and bowed: "To the King of Wei, I am not feeling well. Please return to Ye first to serve your mother at home."

"Yuanzhi is relieved. I have arranged for a maid to serve Xu Mu, so there is no need to worry. Don't you want to see your old friend?"

Old friend

When Xu Shu looked west, he knew that Liu Bei had no chance.

The two mountains of Zhang Wu and Xun Yu in the west have not yet been climbed, and in the east Cao Cao arrives in person, accompanied by the scheming Guo Jia. The generals in the tent randomly pulled out anyone who was good at conquering and fighting. Even Dian Wei and Xu Chu, who were guarding Cao Cao on his left and right, were also unparalleled enemies.

How can Liu Bei win like this?

Desperate situation!

Not to mention that Cai Mao rebelled and Liu Yao withdrew his troops.

Even if the strength of the three families is still there, they are determined not to be opponents.

What's more, the current war situation in Huainan is only supported by Liu Bei.

If you want to fight and win, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky.

It's ridiculous that Liu Biao and Liu Yao claim to be relatives of the Han Dynasty, but they are both short-sighted people.

Liu Biao does not have Huainan, Liu Bei relies on it as a horn, and Jingbei must be Cao Wei Ruomou. Without the support of Liu Bei in Huainan, how could Liu Yao be a rival to Sun Ce, the fierce tiger from the east of the Yangtze River?

A piece of insignificant blood letter from the emperor caused the once relatively stable coalition to fall apart. It controlled people's hearts so accurately. There were so many people in Cao Wei who were good at fighting and scheming!

"Old friend, even if I don't see you, I would like to ask you to be a small official at the border of Youzhou to guard the border for the people of the Central Plains."

Xu Shu's name was to serve as an official, but in reality he was a hermit.

At this time, three hundred miles north of Youzhou, not even a hair of a barbarian could be seen. People in Ping and Youzhou mostly herded cattle and sheep on the grasslands. Wherever the Han people were active, the foreigners all retreated. There was no border in Youzhou. explain.

Even Youzhou Mu Zhang Liao was transferred back to Yecheng by Cao Cao.

Cao Cao smiled and asked: "Yuan Zhi is not willing to serve Gu, but does he think Gu is a narrow-minded person who adds insult to injury?"

"Don't dare."

It's because he doesn't dare, not because he doesn't. In fact, that's what Xu Shu thinks.

Cao Cao allowed the emperor to leave Ye with a bloody edict, slandered his name and caused the three families to fall apart. He detained his mother and forced him to withdraw from Huainan. He used dozens of powerful generals and more than 30,000 soldiers. With Zhang, Xun, Huang, Ma and other fierce generals suppressing the battle, Liu Bei would undoubtedly be killed. So he went to Huainan in person just to see Liu Bei's downfall.

So what if it's not adding insult to injury.

From Cao Cao's point of view, it was indeed Liu Bei who rebelled first, and there was nothing wrong with him sending troops to quell it, but doing so would inevitably be disrespectful of a monarch.

"Yuan Zhifei is not a prince, so he probably doesn't understand the relationship between Gu and Xuande. I think back then, when the princes from the eighteen towns challenged Dong, they were considered colleagues. Gu Qin came here just to give Xuande a chance."

"What does King Wei mean by this?"

"I don't need Liu Bei to bow down and kneel down to beg for surrender. As long as he is willing to bow his head and call me King of Wei, it doesn't matter if I grant him glory and wealth for the rest of his life."

Zhang Wu, who is more open-minded and more vengeful, can give Liu Bei a chance.

Now that the overall situation has been decided, how could Cao Cao do something as cheap as beating a drowned dog with his mind?

Xu Shu Shenran couldn't tell the truth from Cao Cao's words for a while: "Seriously?"

"You are a prince, and I promise you a thousand pieces of gold. Why should I lie to you?"

"In this way, I would like to thank King Wei for his kindness on behalf of my old master."

Cao Cao waved his hand: "Don't be too busy thanking Yuan Zhi, let's have a bet."

"Please let the King of Wei make it clear."

"I bet Liu Xuande would rather die than bow his head."

"This"

Fifty miles north of Shouchun, the Bingzhou wolf cavalry was in a state of crushing them all the way. Wherever they passed, they all fell into the wind.

Compared with the eastern defense line, there is Yuzhang as a barrier, and the northern part is almost flat.

There were no generals guarding the counties, and Shouchun himself could not protect himself and had no reinforcements to fight against foreign enemies. If he had some foresight, he simply opened the city gate and surrendered.

A few opportunistic people who wanted to gamble on fame but stubbornly resisted were naturally beaten into the city by Ma Chao and beheaded.

After the new tax law of Cao Wei came into being, although many people in the city were grateful for Liu Bei's kindness, they did not resist Cao Jun very much.

People are all realistic, and no matter how good Liu Bei is, he cannot bring them any substantial benefits.

On the contrary, no matter what happens to Cao Cao, as long as they are classified as subjects of Cao Wei, at least their food problems will be guaranteed.

In front of the queue, Ma Chao raised his gun and pointed: "Lieutenant, forty miles ahead, there is the garrison of the eldest brother. There are three or five small counties nearby. Let's put it aside and join the army with the eldest brother first."

"Is Meng Qi tired of war?"

"Why would the Lieutenant ask this? Aren't I afraid that I would be late and not get the credit? You also know my elder brother's temper."

"Zi Qian had previously ordered to gradually encroach on the counties in Huainan. Don't be greedy for success. Is Meng Qi trying to disobey the military order?"

Ma Chao disagreed: "Mr. Wen Ruo is a Taiwei, and my eldest brother is a hussar general. In terms of position, you are still above him, so how can you listen to his military orders."

Ma Chao is an everyday person. Others may not take him seriously, but Xun Yu definitely will.

"Nonsense! When I was a minister, Zi Qian was ahead of me in the rank of lords. I was just grateful that Yu was a little older, so I gave him the first place. In the army, Zi Qian was the one holding the command arrow, and he was the commander in chief! The commander has orders, and he is a man. The deputy has neglected his duties and is an arrogant criminal listed among the seventeen beheadings. Ma Chao, if you utter arrogant words and offend your master by speaking lightly, you will definitely be executed without mercy!"

Xun Yu shouted sharply, and Shamoke next to him ignored him and drew his sword directly at Ma Chao, glaring angrily.

Zhang Wu told him to obey Xun Yu's orders, but he would kill whoever Xun Yu asked him to attack, and he would care about the other person's status?

Ma Chao raised his hand to his forehead: "Mr. Wen Ruo's lesson is that if you realize your mistake, please tell this reckless man to put away his weapon. I don't know where I got this stupid young man from."
