Chapter 2952: Marriage between Chu and Wei, Xu Bei fights Qi (Part 1)

Chapter 2948: Marriage between Chu and Wei, Xu Bei fights Qi (Part 1)

Cao Ying always thought that the person she was going to marry was Liu Er, so when she knew she couldn't resist, she wanted to get the best treatment for herself.

In order to let Liu Er know that she is not a flower vase, Cao Ying has been working hard to build a good relationship with Liu Er these days and prepare to follow Liu Er on the battlefield after marriage.

Cao Ying thought of finding someone who suited her. She happened to have good talent in martial arts and had reached the early stage of Grand Master at a young age. Liu Er was the third most powerful general in the Shu Han Dynasty, second only to Xing Tian in strength. She felt that she was not as good as Liu Er in martial arts. We can definitely chat.

But what Cao Ying didn't expect was that Liu Er, a straight man, really didn't understand amorous feelings at all. Faced with the overtures of a beautiful woman like her, he actually looked disdainful of discussing martial arts with a junior grandmaster like her. attitude.

Although Liu Er didn't say it explicitly, the implication behind his words was: "You are too weak, your level is not enough, and you don't understand even if I say it."

Cao Ying was so angry that she wanted to take action, but her reason told her not to do so. After all, although her cultivation level had reached the level of a junior master, the strength of a woman was inherently weaker than that of men of the same level, and Liu Er was not only at a higher level than her, but also She is also gifted with supernatural powers, and she might not even be able to stop Liu Er for a single round if she really takes action.

Although the discussion of martial arts was stuck, Cao Ying found another way. She had only heard of Liu Er's reputation for bravery, but never of his achievements in strategy. She thought Liu Er was a reckless man, so she turned to discuss it with Liu Er. The art of war started.

What Cao Ying didn't expect was that Liu Er's military skills and strategies were indeed not as strong as those of the world's heroes, but after all, he was killed in a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, but he was much better than her, who could only talk on paper.

Liu Er has followed Liu Yu for so many years. Under Liu Er's careful training, he himself has gone through a lot of training, and now his five-dimensional attributes have been improved to varying degrees;

The current Liu Er (Liu Er) currently has five dimensions: Commander 75 (+5), Force 108 (+2), Intelligence 69 (+6), Politics 61 (+3), Charisma 80 (+5);

From the overall five-dimensional point of view, Liu Er is still a fierce general, but his 75 points of command and 69 points of intelligence are still enough to lead an army of less than 10,000 people.

Cao Ying asked herself that she was familiar with the art of war, but this was just what she thought. After actually communicating with Liu Er, she realized how ridiculous her military strategy was. Even Liu Er, who was not good at military strategy, was better than her. Not to mention those famous generals and marshals who are undefeated on the battlefield.

Being beaten up by what she regarded as a 'reckless man' was a huge blow to Cao Ying. It also made her realize that she thought too highly of herself, and at the same time, she actually developed a strange feeling for Liu Er.

Originally, Cao Ying was reluctant to marry Liu Er. After all, Liu Er's hair was too thick and it really didn't suit her taste. However, after experiencing her strength being crushed and her knowledge not being as good as hers, this made her fall in love with Mu Qiang. Then he felt a love for Liu Er.

Now that Cao Ying had no resistance, she was willing to marry Liu Er for the sake of marriage. But what she didn't expect was that the little love that had just emerged in her heart was immediately extinguished by Liu Yu.

"What? I want to marry King Liu Xiu of Chu?"

After hearing what Lu Fei said, Cao Ying looked stunned. She really thought she was going to marry Liu Er, so she was racking her brains to build a relationship during this period.

It is true that Liu Yu's only unmarried brother is Liu Er, but who would have thought that the younger brother Liu Yu mentioned was actually the King of Chu Liu Xiu, who had no blood relationship and was just a brother in name.

Cao Ying turned around and took another look at his behavior. In the eyes of the other party, he might be a clown.

"You go too far to bully others. You, the Shu Kingdom, go too far to bully others."

At this thought, Cao Ying, who felt deeply restored, immediately gritted her teeth angrily. If it weren't for the upbringing she had maintained since childhood, she would have cursed.

Looking at the furious Cao Ying, Lu Zhi also had a look of helplessness. It was indeed Liu Yu who did something wrong. It would be fine once he made it clear at the beginning. But now that the matter had come to this, she could only try her best to appease Cao Ying. Emotional.

On the other side, Liu Yu also approached Liu Er. When he heard that Cao Ying had been getting closer to Liu Er these days, he immediately realized that Cao Ying had misunderstood him, so he quickly came to make amends in person.

Liu Er's mood swings are not as big as Cao Ying's. After all, as a Buddhist disciple, he is not a womanizer. Naturally, he will not fall in love with a strange woman just because he has been with her for a few days. Therefore, all the actions of his brother Of course he is supportive.

But Liu Yu heard something different from it, so he asked Liu Er if he was in love with Cao Ying. Liu Er was naturally negative, but Liu Yu couldn't help but get irritated after being asked too many questions.

Looking at his younger brother who was leaving impatiently, Liu Yu realized that he might have really done something stupid this time. After all, if Liu Er was really not moved at all, he wouldn't be so impatient.

Although Liu Er is a six-eared macaque, after he was born, he was a human, not a monkey. Although his Buddhist background and his own personality make him stay away from women, there is a beautiful woman who not only doesn't dislike him for being ugly, but also takes the initiative to flatter him and pleases her in every possible way. Of course, it is impossible for Liu Er, who is still a young man, not to be touched at all. .

It's just that Cao Ying is related to the Shu Han's plan. For the sake of his brother's great cause of restoring the Han Dynasty, Liu Er very rationally suppressed the impulse in his heart.

This was nothing in Liu Er's eyes. After all, he was not really emotional, just a little sexually excited. But in Liu Yu's eyes, he had made a big mistake.

Liu Yu knows very well that Liu Er is the kind of person who is not close to women, so he will never fall in love easily, and once he falls in love, it will not be so easy to fall in love with the second person again.

Although Liu Yu was a disciple of Buddhism like Liu Er, he still hoped that his younger brother would get married and have children. As a result, his younger brother finally fell in love with someone, but he was killed by himself. If he is no longer passionate in the future, he will definitely be lonely. The ending of old age.

As soon as he thought about this, Liu Yu felt very upset and regretted that he had not made it clear to Cao Ying at the beginning, which resulted in such a big mistake.

At this point, there are only two choices before Liu Yu. One is to give up the Chu State's Yingzhou income and marry Cao Ying to Liu Er, and the other is to wrong Liu Er and continue to implement the original opportunity.

After much thought, Liu Yu decided to give up half of Chu's profits in Yingzhou, which would be a big loss to Shu Han's finances. He couldn't lack this money if he wanted to destroy the Southern Barbarians.

"Brother Er, I'm sorry, I can only wrong you a little first." Liu Yu said to himself with a look of regret. The next day, the envoy from Cao Wei arrived in Chengdu, but what Liu Yu didn't expect was that the envoy who came this time was actually a young man, Xia Houwei, the fourth son of Xia Houyuan.

When Cao Cao learned that his second son Cao Pi, who was far away in Yingzhou, mobilized Cao Wei's intelligence channels in Yizhou in order to maintain the situation in Yingzhou, and sent Cao Ying as an envoy to Shu Han, he didn't feel there was anything wrong with this. After all, Cao Pi also wanted to preserve Cao Wei's power in Yingzhou, and if the Central Plains could not be defended, then Yingzhou would be the Cao family's last resort.

That's right, it's the Cao family, not Cao Cao himself.

Cao Cao also knew that the best outcome for Cao Wei was to surrender to the Qin Dynasty. It was only because of his own insistence that he was fighting until now. However, he was not prepared to bow to Ying Hao. When the day came, he was not prepared to survive. Qiao County It was the cemetery he chose for himself.

Cao Cao was not afraid of death, but he did not want to harm other members of the Cao family and the Xiahou family because of himself, so the colony of Yingzhou, which had not yet been completely occupied by the Qin Dynasty, was naturally the last place for the Cao family and the Xiahou family.

Therefore, Cao Cao agreed with Cao Pi's behavior, but after the mission was successful, Liu Yu detained Cao Ying. This made Cao Cao extremely puzzled and did not understand Liu Yu's purpose of detaining his daughter.

Let's talk about lust, Liu Yu is not a lustful person, otherwise there would already be a lot of concubines in the harem.

If he wasn't lustful about his own daughter, then why did he detain Cao Ying who had the status of an envoy? The two countries are at war and they haven't killed the envoys yet.

Cao Cao also didn't understand Liu Yu's intentions, so he could only send another envoy to hold him accountable.

Xia Houwei was ordered to come here, with the original intention of taking back Cao Ying and condemning the Shu Han for detaining the envoy, but Liu Yu's rhetoric made him completely dumbfounded.

Liu Yu told Xia Houwei a lot, but all that remained in Xia Houwei's ears was: Cao Ying admired Liu Xiu and eloped for love.

But how is this possible?

Xia Houwei had been beaten by Cao Ying since he was a child. He knew his cousin's temperament very well. Regardless of whether she really admired Liu Xiu or not, even if she did, she would never be able to do it with her arrogant character. Licking his face and sticking to his face.

Xia Houwei felt that Liu Yu was deliberately making up outrageous reasons to deceive him just because he was young. However, when he asked again and again, Liu Yu made the same excuse, and finally gave his assurance in the name of the emperor.

In this regard, Xia Houwei was also very helpless. Liu Yu was the emperor. Since he refused to tell the truth to him, he could not put a knife on Liu Yu's neck and force him to tell him. He could only spread the news about Shu Han back to the country first. , and then rushed to Chu State to chase Cao Ying.

—————

Yuzhou, Peiguo, Qiaodu, the new capital of Cao Wei.

Cao Cao, who was sitting on the throne, looked at Xia Houwei's Fei Ge passing the letter, his face full of confusion, obviously not understanding what Liu Yu was doing with this.

After the defeat of Yanzhou, Cao Cao personally went to Mount Tai to appease and win over the Demon Sect forces, especially the dozen or so Demon Sect rebels.

After many negotiations, the two sides finally reached a consensus. Cao Cao took the initiative to hand over control of some counties in exchange for the Demon Sect rebels led by An Lushan and Shi Siming to obey Cao Wei's unified command.

In fact, An Lushan did not want the city. He only wanted money, food and equipment. After all, after taking over these cities, when the Qin army came over, he would have to defend the city. But the leaders of the other rebel armies of the Demon Sect didn’t think so.

The current Demon Sect Rebels only have an army but no territory. If this continues, they will only be sitting on nothing. No matter how much wealth they have, they will not be able to withstand such consumption.

Therefore, most rebel leaders are anxious about this and want to have a piece of their own territory to achieve their goals of separatist rule and raising the army.

At this time, Cao Cao took the initiative to send it to their door. It was naturally in line with their wishes, so how could they refuse?

Even if An Lushan knew that Cao Cao had bad intentions, in the face of the overwhelming public opinion of the majority of people, he could only follow the trend and choose to agree.

Cao Cao relied on ceding land and drawing big cakes to win over the major rebels of the Demon Sect and let them temporarily obey his orders. After that, he immediately led his troops back to Qiaodu. After all, the new capital was also in a mess and there were still a lot of things waiting for him. Handle it yourself.

After Cao Cao returned to Qiaodu, he immediately allocated territory to the Momen rebels. At the same time, he actively contacted the Song and Ming Dynasties, and continued to trade with Chu to purchase prisoners.

In the previous prisoner-of-war trade, the Song and Ming Dynasties contracted the Wu navy captured by the Chu State. Although Cao Wei only purchased infantry prisoners of war, the total amount was actually not large, because Cao Wei could not afford more.

Of course, this was mainly because Liu Xiu was afraid that Cao Cao would not be able to hold on for long, so he was unwilling to give installments and loans to Cao Cao.

But now the situation is different. Cao Cao recruited the Demon Sect rebels and had more than a dozen rebels under his command. This greatly increased his military strength and gave him the confidence to negotiate with Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu also hoped that Cao Cao could persist longer, so he gave him as many concessions as possible in terms of transactions. Anyway, he did not need these Soochow prisoners, and exchanging them for funds and materials for development was just what he wanted.

As long as Cao Cao could afford the money, he would sell as many Liu Xiu as he wanted, even if it meant buying all the Soochow prisoners of war.
