The Legend of Pei Yuanqing of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 355
In Xuchang, Cao Cao is holding an emergency meeting, so all officials big and small are present. Of course, even the smallest officials are of a certain level.

Cao Cao said with a smile, "The news came from the front that Li Bu has gone to attack Hanzhong according to the agreement, and his troops reached 20. It's amazing. How long has it taken? Li Bu can gather hundreds of thousands of people. He is not an ordinary person." "

Cheng Yu cupped his hands and said with a smile, "In my lord's heart, how can a mere Li Bu compare with Liu Bei? Liu Bei is a real hero, with the tenacity that Han Xin's humiliation deserves. Li Bu is just lucky. There are some talents to assist, and thus have the current power, but they are not vulnerable in front of the lord. The lord has a lot of talents under his tent. It can be said that there are strong generals like clouds and counselors like rain, and Li Bu can be drowned by sprinkling water."

"Hahaha, Cheng Yu will make me happy. It's really the first time the sun comes out from the west." Cao Cao was very happy and laughed, but then changed his words and said seriously, "However, it is indeed true. I What I fear the most is Liu Bei, not Li Bu, and this is why I agreed to Li Bu, the three families will attack Liu Bei as one, and eliminate this serious worry that I most want to eliminate."

"I am not afraid that the enemy has the courage of Lu Bu, but I am afraid that the enemy hides too deep, can be bent and stretched, and has the spirit of perseverance. He has been defeated and fought repeatedly, and finally achieved a great cause."

Cao Cao muttered the four words of repeated defeats and repeated battles in his mouth, and he admired them in his heart. These four words were passed down from Soochow.

It is said that in order to form an alliance with Soochow, Liu Bei sent counselor Sun Qian to lobby. Sun Quan and the officials laughed at Liu Bei's frequent defeats, so what qualifications did he have to join the Soochow alliance?

But Sun Gan didn't care at all, and insisted that his lord was difficult to resist because of the disparity in military strength, and he was not defeated. My lord often suffered setbacks, and ordinary people would definitely be discouraged, but my lord has a tenacious spirit and has been defeated repeatedly After repeated battles, the current scale has finally been achieved. Although in your eyes, it is more than several times higher than before, isn't this ability?

Now my lord has countless generals and a group of counselors. It can be said that the army is strong and powerful. It is absolutely beneficial and harmless to ally with you.

Sun Qian's mouth is really powerful, but changing the word "repeatedly defeated and repeatedly defeated" into "repeatedly defeated and repeatedly fought" has completely two meanings, and Liu Bei has also become taller, but it is indeed true.

Moreover, Liu Bei's subordinates have no strong generals like clouds, counselors like rain, who is the strong general in Sun Gan's mouth?It is nothing more than Guan Zhangzhao, plus Pei Feng who is traveling through now, as well as Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao, Mi Fang and so on.

Not to mention the counselors, Sun Qian, Jian, Yong, Mi, Zhu and Xu Shu.

"My lord, now that Liu Bei is about to be wiped out, and your confidant is about to die, what are you worried about?" Cheng Yu laughed.

But unexpectedly, Cao Cao was rarely happy, and said, "Yeah, why can't I be happy? Once Liu Bei dies, will anyone in this world be my opponent? I'm worried, and the days to come will be very ordinary."

The ministers were quite surprised, and felt that they knew Cao Cao for the first time.

In fact, Cao Cao wanted to be friends with Liu Bei very much, and even more wanted Liu Bei to be his subordinate, so that both of them, who have great ambitions and talents, could save the people of the world from fire and water, unify the world and reproduce the prosperity.

It's a pity that things backfired. After all, they were on opposite sides.

They are like enemies and friends, wishing to get rid of each other quickly, but admire each other, and are reluctant to die each other.

I believe Liu Bei thinks so in his heart!

After a long silence, Cao Cao recovered, laughed and said, "I am the one who sighed a lot, everyone laughed, let's continue discussing the war, how to send troops to destroy Liu Bei's Jingzhou!"

After finishing speaking, Cao Cao looked straight down at Cao Zhi and Cao Zhang on the left and right. Now that these two sons are allowed to be heard by him, this is also his preparation for the selection of heirs.

Seeing that Cao Cao's eyes were turning around Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi, everyone understood that Cao Cao had sent them out on purpose. It was a bit interesting, whoever made contributions to the attack on Jingzhou would be his heir.

Cao Cao hoped that his son would compete, and only the strong were worthy of his position, so that the Cao family could be immortal and invincible.

Cao Zhi was frustrated. Although he was talented and unsurpassed by others, he focused too much on his poems and songs, and did not work hard on winning people's hearts. So he has no help so far, only some civil servants to support him. He, but they all have little right to speak.

So even though Cao Zhi had an idea, he couldn't put it into action.

Cao Zhang is different, he has the support of many people, because of his high martial arts, people in the family think he has the most potential.

Of course, except for Cao Pi, because Cao Pi is the person who resembles Cao Cao the most among Cao Cao's sons, no matter in terms of strategy or employment, they are generally the same.

But Cao Pi was so ruthless that he tried every means to kill his brothers and sisters in order to get rid of those who were vying for the position of heir.

An empire cannot be supported by one person. In addition to your own talents and abilities, you also need powerful helpers. Others may betray you, but brothers and sisters are always better than others, right?The so-called brothers are of the same mind and want to cut gold, so why do brothers and sisters kill each other?
Cao Zhang glanced at Cao Zhi indifferently, and then bowed his hands to Cao Cao, "Father, my son is willing to be the vanguard and lead the army to attack Jingzhou for father!"

Cao Cao glanced at Cao Zhang and said comfortingly, "Okay, my son is brave, I agree, I don't know how many troops my son needs, who will follow, and from where to attack?"

Cao Zhang glanced at Cao Ren, saw Cao Ren nodded, and then continued, "Jia Xu is the military adviser, Cao Hong is the chief secretary, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, and Cao Chun are the generals. In addition, Quexuan from Xiapi, Zhou Kui from Xiapi, and Le'an are recruited. Ren Wangmo, Danyang Ren Ruo merged into a tooth general, this battle, the child will definitely win!"

"Brother Xiahou was not invited. It seems that Zhang'er has not yet recruited them. Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, Zhang He and others should remain neutral, so they did not invite either." Cao Cao's eyes were deep, he had already guessed in his heart, and smiled, "All are allowed."

Cao Zhang excitedly said, "My boy needs 20 troops, go straight to Fancheng!"

"Are you going to attack from Fancheng? Well, this is the great way, suitable for large armies to fight, and our army is strong, as it should be!" Cao Cao nodded in approval, then took off the arrow order and said solemnly, "Cao Zhang received the order, ordering you to lead an army of 20, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Cao Chun, General Que Xuan, Zhou Kui, and Wang Mozao became generals, and set off soon to attack Fancheng."

Que Xuan, Zhou Kui, Wang Moruorong and others either once gathered a crowd to rebel, or were quite brave, and were finally suppressed and subdued by Xuzhou Mu Taoqian and recruited to become Tao Qian's generals.

But because of their notorious reputation, Liu Bei took over Xuzhou and expelled them from the army, so they aggrieved and lived in seclusion in Xiapi.

In addition to them, there was one other person who was expelled by Liu Bei, and that was Cao Hong. Cao Hong was Tao Qian's number one confidant.

After he was kicked away by Liu Bei, he held a grudge and waited for the opportunity. He didn't take refuge in Lu Bu, because even if he was a villain, he was also a villain with wisdom, and to seek refuge in Lu Bu was to die.

So he waited until Cao Cao captured Xuzhou before he came out to join Cao Cao.

Cao Cao saw that he was quite talented, so he accepted him, but he didn't pay much attention to him.

If Cao Hong did have some tricks, otherwise he wouldn't be able to become Tao Qian's number one confidant, and he also had another identity, that is Cao Bao's younger brother.

After Cao Hong surrendered to Cao Cao, he was unwilling to be subordinated to others, so he has been trying his best to find someone who can assist him. At first, he liked Cao Pi, but later Cao Pi was put under house arrest, so he looked at Cao Zhang again.

Relying on his own ability, his eloquent mouth surprised Cao Zhang unceasingly, and he thought he was a great talent. Seeing that he was so serious and wanted to take refuge in him, Cao Zhang was naturally happy to see him, and soon he subdued Cao Hong for his own use.

As a member of the Xuzhou lineage, Cao Hong naturally wanted to win over a group of people in Xuzhou, but Chen Deng, Chen Qun, Zhao Yuhuaxin and others disdained to be with him, so he could only find Que Xuan, Zhou Kui, Wang Moruo, and others, to warm up with fire and stand beside Cao Zhang heel.

"Baby accept the order!" Cao Zhang received the arrow order with excitement, and came to Cao Ren with a flushed face. Cao Ren, Cao Hong and Cao Chun also smiled at him to show encouragement.

Cao Cao nodded in satisfaction, and looked at Jia Xu vaguely. Unexpectedly, Jia Xu, an old fox, was subdued by Zhang'er. Zhang'er really has the means, so Zhi'er has no hope.

Cao Cao felt a little regretful. He originally wanted to see the two tigers fighting, but now it seems that there is nothing mysterious about it.

For Cao Zhi, Cao Cao has a different kind of appreciation and love. His Cao family is all martial arts, so he gave birth to such a genius who is destined to be famous all over the world, and he is also his own son Cao Cao.

So Cao Cao loves Cao Zhi very much from the bottom of his heart, but Cao Zhang is also very good, brave and good at fighting, he is the bravest among the descendants of his Cao family.Except for his elder brother Cao Ang who is courageous, resourceful and prudent.

And Cao Pi and his Cao Cao look exactly the same, with good means and wisdom.

His sons all have their own characteristics, but unfortunately, they just can't unite as one.
