Lu Dynasty

Chapter 789 The King of Wei
To be honest, Cao didn't want to use force with Sun Quan. After all, my power is too strong, and they always want to unite.But if Cao didn't express his attitude towards Sun Quan becoming king, how would the people of the world view the Shouchun court?Cao Chen, who seemed angry, but had already thought about it, was preparing to attack Sun Quan in Hefei.Sun Quan also knew that Cao just wanted him to be subdued.Of course, what Cao said about selling himself as a king and bowing his head to plead guilty is nothing but nonsense in his eyes. If he really did that, he would be a fool!
Sun Quan is also a proud master. Which family member is not proud?Especially after the eunuch Cao, he looked down on him even more.However, if you look down on it, you look down on it. Cao's strength lies there.In addition, when Yuan Shao and I competed for the northern hegemony, Guan Hai and Zhang Yan brought more than 20 black mountain bandits to join him. Cao's power is not something that only Sun Quan in Jiangdong can contend with.And because Sun Ce did not die, Sun Quan was much more at ease with Sun Ce's old ministers.After all, as long as Sun Ce doesn't speak up, those old ministers will work step by step, and there will be no incident of supporting the young master.Zhou Yu, who was supposed to be weak and sick because of worry, became quite strong because of Sun Quan's trust.It's a pity that although Mei Zhoulang, who is both civil and military, has a strong body, there seems to be a trace of sickness on his face.

Cao Bing violated Hefei, and Sun Quan immediately asked Sun Ce to come to discuss it. Sun Ce's use of troops was much better than Sun Quan's. At least, he brought out more than half of Jiangdong's soldiers.And the generals who have been supporting Jiangdong's military affairs, from Zhou Yu to Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai, who didn't vote for this little overlord!

Sun Ce knew that Cao Bing was coming, so he raised troops to confront him without saying a word.Seeing the menacing Sun family, Cao thought they were really determined to fight him.Unexpectedly, on the third day after Sun Ce arrived, after a small-scale conflict between the two sides, Sun Ce's envoy arrived at Cao's camp.Of course, Sun Ce sent only a small official, and with Sun Ce's strength, he spoke very aggressively.If you send a great talent, if you are killed by Cao, the gain will not be worth the loss!But this is Sun Ce treating the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. With Cao's character, he rarely does impulsive killings.However, Sun Ce's envoy was also very courageous, and what he said made Cao's subordinates very angry.

Who is Cao, a generation of heroes, not to mention that Sun Quan is now the king, even if he is the emperor, he can only make a statement.Even a blind man can see the general trend of the world, how can Sun Quan not know?Cao was very powerful in history, Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou and refused to return it, but Sun Quan could bear the heart and join forces with him to fight against Cao.Some time ago, I ordered Guan Ping to train sailors in Jingzhou, and I asked Cai Mao and Zhang Yun to assist him. Anyone with a discerning eye knows what I want to do. The reason why Sun Ce is so arrogant is only because the Sun family is not as powerful as the Cao family.If the Sun brothers want to stand at the same height as Cao, they must show their strength.It's just that Cao is also a strong master. If Sun Ce discusses it well with Cao, it's just a trivial matter to be crowned king, and Cao is now planning to get Wei Wang to do it.It's a pity that the strong meets the strong, and a war is inevitable!

In history, the battle between Sun Quan and Cao has almost never been won except for the Battle of Chibi.This is not to say that Sun Quan is incompetent, it can only be said that Sun Quan's soldiers and horses, after losing Zhou Yu, Tai Shici and other generals, Gan Ning and others are only in charge of the navy. That's fine.I think back then when the Yellow Turbans rose up and were as brave as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, they were almost overwhelmed by the Yellow Turbans. Later, when they faced Cao's heroes, they had no choice but to flee in haste!What's more, Cao also has tiger and leopard cavalry.In road battles, cavalry is a sharp knife, unless there is a way to restrain it, otherwise it will only be defeated!
Sun Ce is no better than Sun Quan. He is not only outstanding in martial arts, but also good at the art of war.How can you say that Sun Jian started his career with military exploits? If you say that Sun Ce can't fight, wouldn't it be an insult to Sun Jian's name?It is said that Sun Quan's martial arts are not bad, but it is a pity that when Sun Jian died, Sun Quan was only eight or nine years old, and more than half of his martial arts and military skills were learned from Sun Ce.Sun Ce is irritable, if he is said to be a good teacher, no ghost will believe it!In addition, Sun Ce had been working under Yuan Shu's command, so he finally exchanged the Chuanguo Yuxi for Jiangdong, but was murdered by Xu Gong's family guest not long after, so Sun Quan could only learn government affairs from Zhang Zhao and others.As for learning martial arts, with Sun Quan's mentality, can he learn from his subordinates?What's more, the monarch does not need to know martial arts, or even the art of war, he only needs to know how to employ people!Therefore, in history, when Sun Ce died, he would say to Sun Quan: I am not as good as you for charging into battle, and I am not as good as you for selecting talents and appointing talents!Now Sun Ce is not dead, but it is Cao's disaster.

Originally, in Cao's eyes, although Sun Ce laid down Jiangdong's foundation, he was just a reckless man.Liu Yao, Wang Lang, and Yan Baihu are all talented, but they are just scholars.In history, after defeating Yuan Shao, Cao Cao once said: If there is a writer of writing, he needs to use martial arts to help him.Liu Yao and others who have no martial arts skills are not even qualified to give him Cao's shoes.Sun Ce defeated these weak people, but it does not mean that he is strong.In Cao's view, it was just the taller one among the shorter ones.However, Sun Ce taught Cao a hard lesson and proved his worth with his martial arts and art of war.

Cao fought in Hefei, but he had no intention of fighting the Sun family.Therefore, they only brought Guan Hai, Zhang Yan and other generals here, as for the Xiahou brothers, they were naturally guarding the important places.Unexpectedly, Sun Ce was rude, Cao wanted to subdue him first!I don't want Sun Ce to be brave, although Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai are not as good as Sun Ce, they are only stronger than Guan Hai and Zhang Yan!Fortunately, Cao and Sun Ce only clashed on a small scale. After one battle, Cao lost thousands of soldiers and horses, and Sun Ce was also repelled.If there is no victory or defeat, it is barely a tie.

After the fight, everyone can discuss things calmly.After some discussion, Cao and Sun Ce reached an agreement. Cao supported the Sun family to become king, but the Sun family had to bow to Liu Xie.In fact, Sun's plan was originally like this, but Cao had to fight before he would nod, which is really speechless.However, this is also the attitude that Cao must have. He wants to show the world that it is not because Cao is unwilling to maintain the dignity of the Han Dynasty, but the dignity of the Han Dynasty can no longer be maintained!

Now that the alliance was formed, the matter of Sun Quan proclaiming King Wu was over, but Cao was very depressed.Regardless of his contribution to the Han Dynasty or his dedication to Jiangshan Sheji, even if he is not as good as me, he is still much better than Sun Quan.Cao, who returned to Xuchang, ignored the opposition of everyone, and immediately ordered someone to coerce Liu Xie to make him king of Wei!Xun Yu, who was supposed to object, just sighed.He knows that under the current situation, the dignity of the Han family has been completely lost, and even if he opposes it, he will be powerless. He only hopes that Cao will not take that last step!
