Three Kingdoms: Beginning To Replace Liu Bei And Marry The Mi Family

"Could it be that Chen Deng figured out for him that Yuan Shu would become emperor?"

Cao Ren also guessed in surprise.

Guo Jia came back to his senses and shook his head: "I said that Chen Deng is indeed resourceful, but such a prophetic calculation is definitely beyond Chen Deng's ability."

"It's not Chen Deng. That's hard to do. It's really Liu Bei who figured it out."

"I really can't believe that Liu Bei is so resourceful!"

Cao Ren's face was full of surprise, and he still refused to believe it.

"Today's Liu Bei is no longer the Liu Bei of the past..."

Cao Cao let out a meaningful sigh, and he couldn't help sighing, which added deep fear.

Everyone's expressions were stunned, and there was a lot of discussion.

"boom!"

Cao Cao clapped the case, but said angrily: "However, Yuan Shu, a traitor, is really defying the world's displeasure, and blatantly presumptuously claiming the title of emperor. He really doesn't take this government seriously!"

Everyone's thoughts turned from the epicenter of Liu Wu to the anger towards Yuan Shu.

"It's been less than a year since Sikong welcomed the emperor, but Yuan Shu dared to proclaim himself emperor. This is clearly because he doesn't take Sikong's authority seriously, so why not send troops to attack him!"

Cao Ren asked for a fight angrily.

Xu Huang also said sharply: "If you don't punish Yuan Shu's rebels, what will be the prestige of Sikong, and if everyone in the world follows suit, what will be the prestige of the court!"

The two generals took the lead, and all the generals shouted for battle.

Cao Cao's face was full of anger, but he suppressed his anger and looked at Guo Jia.

Guo Jia shook his head slightly, apparently not in favor of sending troops to attack Yuan Shu.

Cao Cao has his own difficulties.

Gongsun Zan retreated to defend Yijing and was beaten passively. Yuan Shao's unification of Hebei was imminent, and his army going south was imminent.

As Liu Wu said, he had to prepare for the decisive battle before Yuan Shao went south.

But Yuan Shu is dominant in Yangzhou, and his strength on paper even surpasses Yuan Shao. If he led the army to the south at this time, it would be fine to make a quick battle.

Not to mention, Zhang Xiu in Wancheng is still alive and kicking, and under Liu Biao's courage, he threatens Xu Du at all times, and must be eliminated before the decisive battle.

On the eve of such a decisive battle, it is obviously not wise to raise troops to attack Yuan Shu.

However, he respected the emperor and attacked non-officials. If he ignored Yuan Shu's proclaiming himself emperor and challenged the prestige of the emperor, he would not send troops to attack, so why would he defend his authority?

With each other, all the princes in the world followed Yuan Shu's example and proclaimed themselves emperors one after another, so the Son of Heaven card in his hand was useless.

"A dilemma..."

Cao Cao sighed softly, his brows became one word wide.

"Sikong, it seems that Liu Bei is right, we have no choice but to retreat."

Guo Jia suddenly sighed.

Cao Cao's expression was shocked.

Guo Jia continued: "We not only want to retreat, but also form an alliance with Liu Bei to turn the enemy into a friend!"

Everyone was taken aback.

However, Cao Cao seemed to have realized something, and waved his hands to signal Guo Jia to continue.

"Liu Bei today is very different from the past, and it is not an exaggeration to describe him as a great talent."

"With just one Zhang Liao, he can resist the siege of Yuan Shu's 30,000 troops."

"Then with Liu Bei's ability, if Sikong wants to take Xuzhou, even if he succeeds in the end, he will have to pay a heavy price and his vitality will be greatly damaged."

"At the time of introduction, Yuan Shao's army crossed the south of the river, and Sikong defeated him miserably. How could he fight against him?"

Guo Jia's tone was dignified, and he asked in a deep voice.

"Following Xiao's words, Liu Bei is no longer a tiger, but a flying dragon. It is not easy to destroy."

Cao Cao nodded slightly, deeply agreeing.

"Since destroying Liu Bei is not worth the loss, then the most sensible choice is to turn the enemy into a friend, so that he will not fall to Yuan Shao's side."

"Yuan Shu, the thief, deeply hates Liu Bei, and vows to take Xuzhou. He and Liu Bei are mortal enemies."

"For Liu Bei, only by destroying Yuan Shu and taking Huainan can he stabilize Xuzhou and plan other plans."

"Since that's the case, why don't Sikong retreat and turn the fight with Liu Bei into friendship, and let Liu Bei go to confront Yuan Shu, so that Sikong can let go and prepare for a decisive battle with Yuan Shao."

"This is the most sensible choice for us now."

After some analysis, Guo Jia clarified the stakes.

"What Feng Xiao said is very true."

"It seems that Liu Xuande's words were finally hit. After all, the government still has to shake hands with him."

Cao Cao was filled with emotion, but said again: "It's just that Liu Bei's hero is far superior to Yuan Benchu. I'm afraid he will be the enemy of our family in the future!"

"The future can only be discussed in the future. The chief enemy of Sikong today is still Yuan Shao!"

Guo Jia said decisively.

Cao Cao was slightly startled, and there was no more worry in his eyes.

After pondering for a long time, Cao Cao waved his hand: "Let's follow the plan of filial piety and send someone to Xiaopei to talk to Liu Xuande about the alliance."

...

Xiaopei City.

Inside the hall, the aroma of wine permeated the air.

Liu Wu is holding a banquet and drinking with the generals.

"Zhang Wenyuan held on to Xutai for a month, and Yuan Shu attacked ten times, killing and injuring more than 3,000 people, but he was still unable to break through the city!"

Sun Qian smiled and read the battle report from the south.

"Zhang Wenyuan, you really didn't disappoint me."

Liu Wu nodded slightly in appreciation.

Zhang Fei widened his eyes, and praised: "That Zhang Liao is nothing special, I think it's the 'Shoucheng Record' you gave him, brother!"

"General Yide is right."

Chen Deng also said with emotion: "Facts have proved that the 'Record of Shoucheng' written by the lord is indeed a treasured book of city defense, and it will surely become a masterpiece of military strategists handed down from generation to generation like 'Sun Tzu's Art of War'!"

Facing everyone's admiration, Liu Wu just smiled and refused.

"My lord, Xutai is indeed defending, but Cao Cao in front of him has not retreated for a long time. It is no way to continue this confrontation."

Zhao Yun remained calm and reminded with cupped hands.

Everyone's excited expressions immediately cast a shadow.

The voice fell.

Chen Dao rushed in, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, there is an urgent report from Huainan Xizuo that Yuan Shu has assumed the title of emperor a few days ago!"

There was an uproar in the lobby.

Everyone's expression changed, and their surprised gazes gathered at Liu Wu.

"Brother, so you weren't joking. Yuan Shu's dog thief really became the emperor. You really guessed it right?"

Zhang Fei jumped up excitedly and shouted in surprise.

"Yuan Shu and I are old friends. I know him quite well, but I didn't expect him to be so bottomless that he openly proclaimed himself emperor!"

"It's my lord who knows Yuan Shu like the back of his hand. Deng's ability to see people's hearts really convinces him!"

Chen Deng was also amazed, and said with emotion.

Facing everyone's amazement, Liu Wu only smiled faintly: "Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor and slapped our Duke Cao in the face. I believe his envoy should be on his way."

The voice did not fall.

Baipao entered and reported that Mao Jie, Cao Cao's emissary, had entered the city and wanted to see him.

Everyone was shocked again.

"Brother, I've hit the spot again, you're really amazing!"

Zhang Fei looked at Liu Wu in surprise.

Liu Wu didn't think so, and sneered: "As expected, it is about Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be here, let Mao Jie come in."

After a while, Mao Jie entered and greeted him respectfully.

After some courteous conversation, Mao Jie expressed his intention of coming:

Cao Cao was willing to accept Liu Wu's proposal during the meeting that day, and the two families shook hands and made peace and became allies to deal with the Yuan brothers together.

To show his sincerity, Cao Cao will not only withdraw his troops immediately, but also formally appoint him as Xuzhou Mu, Peihou, and governor of Xuzhou's military and political affairs in the name of the court.

Cao Cao really has a heroic view of the overall situation, as long as there is a need, he can turn enemies into friends at any time.

Liu Wu admired secretly in his heart.

"Yuanlong, what do you think of Mr. Cao's kindness?"

Since Liu Wu took Chen Deng as his mastermind, he naturally wanted to pay attention to his opinion, so he asked this question.

Chen Deng pondered for a while, but said: "Mao Zong, your Lord Cao wants to form an alliance with my Lord, and it's probably not enough just to rely on the false name of the official Xu Jue."

"Then Chen Zhizhong thinks, what else does my lord need to show his sincerity?"

Mao Jie had no choice but to ask.

Chen Deng said with a smile: "I heard that Mr. Cao has a daughter named Cao Jie, who is still unmarried to Yunying. If Mr. Cao can marry her to my lord, and the two families form a good relationship between Qin and Jin, then this sincerity will be enough. "
