The news that Pengcheng was easily won by Liu Bian quickly spread throughout the Xuzhou area, and then spread to all parts of the world.

Two hundred miles to the south of Pengcheng, within a county town of several miles.

Yuan Shao's escape day and night finally got rid of the pursuers and escaped with his life. Looking at the dozen or so personal soldiers around him, he was full of grief.

Thinking that a few months ago, he led an army of 100,000 people and marched towards Pengcheng in high spirits, wanting to completely occupy Xuzhou and coveting Qingzhou, but now?

Do you really want to kill me?

Yuan Shao looked up to the sky and sighed, feeling helpless and frustrated.

"My lord, Pengcheng has fallen! General Wang Fang was killed, and there was mutiny in the city, and there was no resistance for a moment.

The scout's hurried voice came from a distance, and Yuan Shao spat out a mouthful of old blood.

The next moment he screamed, and then fell to the ground...

Luoyang City.

Because the distance from Xuzhou is not close, it is naturally very late to get the news.

When Pengcheng fell, Cao Cao had just received the news that Sun Jian's entire army had been annihilated.

Cao Mansion, in the study.

Cao Cao sighed heavily in the face of Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Xi Zhicai and other advisors, and after telling the news, he did not mean to urge him, and quietly waited for a few people to speak.

After a long time, the tea on the table has been drunk, Guo Jia frowned and said, "My lord, the situation is not good, Sun Jian was let go by Liu Bian in Qinggu, and now he is defeated again, with his personality, I am afraid that he will not continue to resist. If he surrenders to Liu Bian, Zhou Yu will definitely hesitate in his heart.

"We really couldn't resist letting him respond to Liu Bian within us.

Guo Jia did not mention how Liu Bian disappeared under their noses, and directly explained the most fundamental problem.

Xi Zhicai on the side nodded slowly: "It's not just Zhou Yu's problem, Yuan Shao's army of 100,000 people in Pengcheng is probably in danger, and even Sun Jian can't resist Liu Bian for how long, let alone Yuan Shao, I'm afraid that it will be destroyed in just two days. There will be news of the fall of Pengcheng.35

"There are only the lord and Liu Bei left in the world, and with Zhou Yu's uncertain power, the situation is really difficult.

Cheng Yu is also a wise man in the world, and there is a cold light in his eyes: "My lord, it is better to strike first, eat the strength of Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, and maybe be able to deal with Liu Bian."

"Yizhou is now under Liu Bei's control, and we can unite with Liu Bei to fight.

All three counselors shared their views.

After Cao Cao heard this, he shook his head with a wry smile.

It's not that he didn't think about what Cheng Yu meant, but he knew better how difficult it was for Zhou Yu and Sun Ce to deal with.

Although they were in the alliance, the two of them were usually hiding in their own barracks, not giving him a chance to make a bad hand. Secondly, the soldiers in Jiangdong were so committed to the two of them that even if he really succeeded, he would still be there. Luoyang City caused huge chaos, and now Luoyang City is surrounded by all sides, how can you seek chaos?

Cao Cao shook his head: "How can Zhou Yu and Sun Ce be so easy to deal with? They have a lot of troops in their hands, and the two of them are both civil and military. During this time, everyone has seen the strength of the two, I am afraid that the tiger will not be successful. Injured.

Guo Jia agreed: "Yes, these two people have no idea of ​​turning over to the enemy. If we force them back, I'm afraid it will be worse."

"Fortunately, Sun Jian was completely wiped out, and he hasn't surrendered yet. Let's try it out first to see what the two of them are thinking. If they really only care about Sun Jian, we have to fight hard."

"Liu Bei must send someone to contact him, and he must be allowed to exert pressure on the northwest side, otherwise we will not be able to bear Liu Bian's hands.

"As for Yuan Shao, we can only hope that he can drag on for more time.

"Let's take advantage of this time to attack Xue Rengui outside the city.

Guo Jia's idea can be said to be very safe, so after he finished speaking, no one else objected.

As night fell, the entire Luoyang city was silent.

The Cao Mansion was lit up with lanterns.

The lights were dazzling, and when Sun Ce and Zhou Yu both entered the Cao Mansion, they saw this situation and were more worried than guarding.

The two did not know the news of Sun Jian's defeat at present, so they did not think of Cao Cao's idea of ​​410 against them.

Zhou Yu leaned into Sun Jian's ear and said softly: "Be careful, Bo Fu, something is wrong, no matter what Cao Mengde wants to discuss with us tonight, don't be reckless.

Sun Ce nodded slowly: "Don't worry, everything is up to you."

The two were talking in a low voice, and Cao Cao brought Guo Jia up to greet him.

"You two are distinguished guests, please come in, please come in. 35

Cao Cao said with a harmless smile.

But Zhou Yu saw this, in addition to being alert, he was even more puzzled.

"Gong Cao is too polite, and suddenly invited us tonight for no reason? But what happened to Liu Bian outside the city? Zhou Yu asked with a smile.

Cao Cao nodded: "Exactly, if it wasn't an urgent matter, why would I invite the two of you?

"Let's go inside, please, speak slowly."

Cao Cao's straightforward words made Zhou Yu and Sun Ce feel less wary.

The two looked at each other, both nodded secretly, and followed Cao Cao toward the interior of the hall.
