I Am the Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

He didn't forget Gongsun Zan of Xuzhou. If it wasn't for this goddamn Gongsun Zan, Xuzhou would have been in his pocket long ago.

Cheng Yu replied: "Gongsun's attitude is subtle, although he has assembled a large army, but the army has not been launched.

Hmph, as long as Yuan Shu reveals his flaws, he will definitely pounce on him and take a bite. "Cao Cao said coldly, this guy Gongsun is not staying in the north, but he came to Xuzhou and ruined his important affairs.

Yes, he is waiting.Cheng Xun agrees with Cao Cao's words

"Zhongde, what do you think?" Cao 3.5 Cao suddenly asked

Lord, do you want them to fight first?

When Cheng Dao heard Cao Cao's question, he understood what Cao Cao thought about the king.

Cao Cao nodded, but did not speak, he did have such an idea.

Although Yuan Shu is a waste, he still has some soldiers and horses in his hands. Even if he is bad, he can still consume some of the strength of Liu Bei or Gongsun Zan.

Yuan Shu was a waste, but Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan were not. The alliance of the two of them put a lot of pressure on Cao Cao. Cao Cao wanted to deal with these two people for a long time.

"Zhongde, you say, how about attacking Xuzhou?

Cao Cao stood up, stared at the map for a while, and finally asked aloud.

629. Cheng Yu's suggestion

Cao Cao's eyes have been patrolling the map of Xuzhou. Under the governance of Tao Qian, Xuzhou has a strong foundation and has great potential. If Xuzhou can be captured, it will be of great help to Cao Cao.

The man who attended the meeting was very surprised. He Xu Duling was in the post-book ceremony before and after the ceremony. Because of Liu Xin's nonsense, he lost face and had to retire from Xu Duling's position and enter the General's Mansion to serve as Cao Cao's staff.

Man Hong said: "My lord, if we do this, it will definitely make people all over the world talk about it, and then the people's heart will be greatly lost.

Gongsun talked about attacking Yuan Shu, but Cao Cao knew that the knife was behind him, and it was spread out that people all over the world thought that Cao Cao had a way with Yuan Shu.

"Won't.

Although Man Chong was worried, Cheng Yu did not agree with Man Chong's words. After listening to Cao Hu's words, his eyes flashed.

Attack Runan? "

After Cao Cao heard Zong, he was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes flashed.

He silently looked at Runan County on the map

Runan county seat of Qiaocheng is less than five hundred miles away, and the cavalry at full speed can reach it in less than two days.

Before Cao Cao moved the capital, he had considered several places to move the capital.The location of Xu Du was not actually Cao Cao's first choice, but in the end he chose Xu Du.

Wancheng Zhang Xiu in the west, Liu Bei Yuan Shu in the south, and Xuzhou Tao Qian in the east, although Khan can shock the surrounding enemies, but there are two sides to the matter. He can shock the surrounding enemies. Similarly, he is also threatened by the opponent.

Wancheng Zhang Xiu taught Cao Cao a lesson. During the battle of Xuzhou, he dispatched troops from Wancheng and approached Xudu, so Cao Cao had to rush back with his troops and give out Xuzhou, which had already been swallowed in his stomach. Gongsun Zan was officially appointed in vain

This is also one of the reasons why Cao Cao dealt with Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu is from the northwest, and his aggressiveness is much stronger than that of Liu Bei and Yuan Shu.

For Wang Zhangxiu, Liu Bei, Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zan, the four people, except Zhang Xiu, are the most aggressive.

Compared with Liu Bei, Liu Bei loves fame on the surface. He is still the uncle of the emperor today. Cao Cao represents the court. he

However, Gongsun Ban was different. Gongsun Ban was originally a arrogant and rebellious person. After he moved to the position of the prefect of Guangling, he recruited troops and horses in Guangling to look at other parts of Xuzhou, causing Tao Qian to have a headache.It is impossible for such a person to submit to a court without prestige. Cao Cao's attempt to use the emperor to suppress him will only backfire.

What's more, in the battle of Xuzhou, Cao Cao and Gongsun Qi took the lead in attacking Gongsun Zan, and the two had already forged a grudge. Cao Cao received news that Gongsun was always ready to take revenge on himself.

Cao Cao didn't like that there was always a guy walking around with a messenger in front of his house and would break in at any time.So he knows that even if he does this, people in the world will criticize him, and even his own voice will be badly damaged. He must take advantage of the battle between Liu Bei and Yuan Shu to get rid of this thorn in the eyes of Gongsun Lu.

But what Cao Cao didn't expect was that Cheng Yu made a proposal that made him even more excited, attacking Runan, taking care of Liu Bei and taking care of Liu Bei's good foreigners is far more beneficial than taking care of Gongsun Zan.Compared with Gongsun, Liu Bei is closer to Xudu, and the threat is naturally greater.

However, Liu Bei is different from Gongsun Zan. Liu Bei wears the title of Uncle Emperor on his head. Although this title is worthless, it is still an uncle who can be used to bluff people.And over the years, Liu Bei has managed Yuzhou very well, and the people of Yuzhou are very supportive of Liu Bei

A sneak attack on Gongsun Zan might damage his reputation a bit, but while Liu Bei is fighting against Yuan Shu, attacking from behind him is not as simple as losing his reputation.

So Cao Cao hesitated and attacked Liu Bei at a high price. Liu Bei respected the court without any disrespect.

Seeing Cao Cao hesitate, Cheng Yu explained aloud.

The lord, Liu Bei is a cunning and treacherous person who pretends to be benevolent and righteous and is very good at buying people's hearts. He has a very high reputation in Yuzhou, and he is more dangerous than Gongsun Zan.These characters must be the enemy of the lord, and the lord must not let him have a chance.Once he defeats Yuan Shu and annexes Shouchun, his strength will definitely increase. Later, once he joins forces with Gongsun Zan to attack, the lord will be in danger.

good Zhao)

Cao Cao's strength is stronger than Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan, but he can't compare to the combination of the two, otherwise Cao Cao would have gone out to clean up the two of them. Cao Cao knew about Liu Bei's danger, and this shoe buyer was indeed very powerful. During his time in Runan, the common people The life is prosperous and healthy, and the population is growing steadily. With one county, it can support [-] cavalrymen and tens of thousands of soldiers. Cao Cao is also impressed by the means. It is necessary to know that Yuzhou has two counties and four kingdoms and one country. The county is in the hands of Cao, Liu Bei can only control one county and four feudal countries, but the feudal countries will not pay taxes, so Liu Bei can only rely on the land of Runan County, one county and one county to develop to this point, it can be seen that Liu Bei He is indeed much stronger than Gongsun Zan.

630. Sun Ce, Jiangdong's Little Overlord

Although he knew that Liu Bei was dangerous, Cao Cao still failed to make up his mind.

Upon seeing this, Cheng Dao asked, "My lord, are you worried that your reputation will be damaged?

Cao Cao nodded, but he still had another worry, what if he lost?

You must know that attacking Liu Bei is already very risky. Once you carry it, the consequences will be unimaginable.After being attacked by Zhang in Wancheng, he was already in a state of embarrassment, and Xu Du had many people who opposed him.

If he wins against Liu Bei, it's fine, but if he loses, Xu Du will be in chaos for a while, and he will have to spend time to stabilize Xu Du. Cheng Yu has obviously already thought of a solution to this problem, he offered his advice: "My lord , we can lead an army to Runan to deal with Yuan Shu on the surface, and secretly look for opportunities to deal with Liu Bei. Then send someone to lead an army from Wancheng and attack Runan directly. Once Liu Bei returns to help, the lord can make a sneak attack."

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this, but he was still a little hesitant.

The lord, the subordinates heard that when the former emperor was alive, he asked the emperor and the king of Hongnong to recognize Liu Zhe and Liu Bei as their uncles. The former emperor hoped that they could protect the safety of the emperor and the king of Hongnong in the future.Liu Zhe sent troops to protect the emperor and King Hongnong when they were in danger, while Liu Ge was indifferent to the king, sitting by and watching the emperor and King Hongnong fall into danger. It can be said that Liu Bei ignored the last emperor's order, and he was not worthy of being the emperor's uncle.

Man Chong also spoke out at this time. He saw Cao Cao's Yu and knew that Cao Cao was actually moved by Cheng's proposal, but he couldn't find a suitable reason to deal with Liu Bei for a while, so as to avoid serious damage to his reputation.

Wang Shiman Chong spoke up, and he continued: "My subordinates have also heard that when Liu Bei was the shepherd of Yuzhou, he was close to Ruyang's Yuan family and had a very close relationship.
