Three Kingdoms Bandits

Chapter 302 A Historic Meeting

As the Hangu Pass closed, Wu Shunhe looked at the company camp in the distance comfortably.

"Looking at it like this, the scenery is not bad, but it's a pity..."

Wu Shun suddenly had a feeling, and Xu Shu beside him also smiled and said: "Master, although the scenery is good, the strength is not enough, it is illusory in the end."

"Yuan Zhi, we have Hangu Pass in our hands, Cao Cao is in a dilemma, this time we will give him a way out, and it will also give us a way out."

If the stalemate continues, it will be bad for everyone. Yuan Shao, the strongest in the world, is watching coldly from the side. No matter how much trouble Wu Shun and Cao Cao make, they dare not let go.

If you don't try your best, no one can do anything to anyone!

"The current situation has to be like this."

Xu Shu nodded and replied.Yizhou has not accumulated enough. Through this dispatch to Chang'an, it can be seen that there are still shortcomings in the Wuling army.The strength is not enough to do whatever you want!

According to the plan, Yizhou will expand to the north when it regains its strength, and it has no intention of becoming an enemy of the princes of the world.

It's a pity that Cao Cao was so vigilant that he actually persuaded other princes to come and besiege him.

"Tomorrow, I'll have a good talk with Cao Cao. It's time for him to change his suspicious nature."

Cao Cao's ability is very strong, it can be said that the soldiers are strong and the counselors are like clouds!

In contrast, Wu Shun led Nuoda and Yizhou with only a few generals and three advisers.When it comes to a real war, it still seems stretched!

Because of Wu Shun's invitation, Cao Cao had many speculations. Until late at night, he was still thinking about the reason why Wu Shun met him.

"Zixuan, I, Cao Cao, can read countless people on weekdays, but I just can't see through you. Anyway, I will know what you think tomorrow."

Unexpectedly, unable to guess, Cao Cao simply gave up and asked in person tomorrow.With the friendship between them, Wu Shun will not hide it from him.

In the early morning of the next day, Cao Jun was ready to go.Although Cao Cao was going to meet Wu Shun, he couldn't lose his momentum.

When Cao Cao led his troops to Hangu Pass, the Wuling army was already waiting in front of the pass.There was a temporary grass pavilion in front of him, and Wu Shun was pouring his own drink inside.

"Brother Meng De, you are late!"

Seeing Cao Cao's late arrival, Wu Shun glanced at it and drank by himself.

"Hahaha, don't blame Zixuan."

Seeing that there was only one guard standing behind Wu Shun, Cao Cao thought for a while and asked Dian Wei to follow him.With Dianwei guarding him, Cao Cao felt more at ease.

"Brother Meng De, please sit down!"

Wu Shun greeted, then poured wine for Cao Cao.

"Didn't Zixuan invite me to drink with Cao Cao today?"

Cao Cao lifted the wine cup and drank it down in one gulp, showing his heroic spirit.

Wu Shun admired such a person in his heart, and he was not worried about making small moves in the drink.

"Hey, let's just say it, is Brother Mengde sure to break through the Hangu Pass?" Wu Shun got straight to the point, straight to the point.

"No, since Zixuan you arrived at Hangu Pass, I have no hope of breaking through!" Cao Cao said truthfully.

Not to mention the defenders in Guanli, but Wu Shun's personal guard battalion made Cao Cao frightened.Cao Cao couldn't forget the powerful cavalry from the fierce fighting in the past few days.

"In that case, why don't you retreat? It won't be good for Brother Mengde if you continue to spend it."

Wu Shun wanted to shake hands with Cao Cao today to make peace, and if he would not let Hangu Pass pass, Cao Cao had to retreat.

"Zixuan is so sure that I will choose to retreat? With Hanguguan in hand, I'm afraid Yizhou can't afford it?"

Who is Cao Cao, what Wu Shun meant, he actually guessed.Cao Cao will definitely retreat.But now that it was Wu Shun who proposed it first, he wanted to earn some money back.

If the allied forces of the princes can't do anything to the Wuling Army, and finally retreat in desperation, they will be laughed at by the world.

To a certain extent, Cao Cao represents the Han Dynasty, and represents the only remaining majesty of the Han Dynasty.

"My original intention of taking Chang'an was not to be an enemy of the princes, let alone brother Meng De. Suddenly, the coalition of princes came to attack, and I was caught off guard. Fortunately, the soldiers under my command worked hard to defend the Hangu Pass , to protect the Guanzhong without losing it. Taking the Guanzhong land is just to find a place for the refugees to settle down, Brother Meng De has made a big move this time."

Wu Shun talked about him from left to right, and did not follow up on Cao Cao's words.Anyone with a discerning eye knows Wu Shun's intention to take Chang'an, but he is right to say so.

"Since Zixuan has Yizhou, why does he want to get involved in the land of Guanzhong? Wouldn't it be nice to keep it as a buffer?" Cao Cao raised his wine cup and drank it down again.

"Haha, so, like me, Brother Meng De doesn't want to face each other too early?" Wu Shun asked.

"Since the battle against Dong, I have never thought of making an enemy against Zixuan, but...you and I are both princes, and there will be a battle! If the Guanzhong land had not had too much influence, I, Cao Cao, would not have wanted to send troops! "

It feels really good to tell the truth, Cao Cao doesn't have to hide his worries from Wu Shun.He could feel that Wu Shun was also honest with him.

"How about this, as long as Brother Meng De withdraws, I owe a favor, and whenever Brother Meng De needs it, I will return the favor. Luoyang area can be used as a buffer."

It must be wrong to talk about each other, Wu Shun wanted to use a favor in exchange for Cao Cao's retreat.It depends on how Cao Cao decides.In the Luoyang area, there is no danger to defend, Cao Cao only needs to guard the Hulao and other passes.

What's more, there are still many princes in the Central Plains, and Cao Cao's energy is mainly there.As for Chang'an, it has already been swallowed by the Wuling Army.According to Wu Shun's stingy character, he was unwilling to spit it out even if he was beaten to death.

"It's not impossible to retreat, and now the coalition forces are not limited to my family."

Victory is hopeless, Cao Cao wanted to retreat, and now he has a promise from Wu Shun, that's not bad.

What Cao Cao wanted was actually an excuse.The princes all cherish face.

Few princes would do whatever they wanted, regardless of face, like Wu Shun.

"If Cao Jun retreats, Jiangdong Sun Ce will naturally retreat. If the remaining Lu Bu does not retreat, I will be happy to solve this trouble for Brother Meng De in advance, and I will pay back the favor!"

If Cao Cao and Sun Ce retreated, Lu Bu would not retreat.Wu Shun will find a way to deal a heavy blow to Lu Bu.Let his strength be greatly damaged, and then be eaten by the princes of the Central Plains.

"Hahahaha, Zixuan speaks quickly! Come on!"

"So, Brother Meng De agrees?"

Wu Shun said with a half-smile.

"Hey, Zixuan, I can't hide the little tricks you did behind your back. Yuan Shao was about to make a move and had to retreat. Liu Biao was also defeated, that's all, Zixuan won this time."

Wu Shun sent people to contact Yuan Shao, saying that the main force of the Central Plains princes gathered at Hangu Pass, and Yuan Jun could go south in a big way.

Cao Jun who stayed behind has already obtained Yuan Jun's movements. If Cao Cao doesn't go back to defend, once Yuan Shao goes south, it will be destroyed.

This is why Cao Cao made up his mind to retreat!

In comparison, Wu Shun's threat is far less than Yuan Shao's.

"The [-] elite of my Suzaku Legion were scattered, who should I ask for reason..."

When Cao Cao said he had won, Wu Shun was really speechless to ask the sky.Not counting the ordinary legion, his Suzaku legion only has a few thousand people left, and Dongfang Qiang still can't let go of it.

When the two met, Wu Shun owed him a favor and Cao Cao agreed to withdraw.

After Cao Cao returned to camp, he sent someone to inform Lu Bu and Sun Ce, detailing the current situation and the changes in Yuan Shao in Hebei.

"Cao Mengde! You are the one who united, and you are the one who wants to retreat! Why don't we have so many generals to attack?"

Lu Bu is very good, his Diaochan is still in Chengdu, how can he retreat?
"Fengxian, there are cavalry in Hangu Pass, they cannot attack by force, not to mention that the Xiliang army has retreated, Liu Biao has been defeated, and the coalition forces have lost their advantage. Let's retreat!"

Cao Cao made up his mind to retreat, and the reason was clearly explained.

"I agree to retreat!"

Sun Ce said that he didn't want to fight Wu Shun desperately, and he was very happy to retreat.

"If you want to retreat, you will retreat, but I will not!"

Lu Bu was very angry. Such an anticlimactic alliance of princes and snakes is really helpless.For the love in his heart, Lu Bu will fight Wu Shun again!
Love is a kind of disease that easily makes people's brains go crazy!
