Three Kingdoms

"Walk! gone! Liu He waved his riding crop and shouted angrily, "Why are you still hesitating?" 』

Liu He and his trusted guard stepped forward and said with some hesitation: "My lord, is it inappropriate to do this...?" If General Zhao knew..."

"Know? How do you know? Liu He stared, murderous intent gradually gathering in his eyes, "If you don't tell me, if I don't tell you, who else will know?" Could it be you..."

"I will never betray my Lord even if I die!" "The confidant guard said quickly, "I'm just worried about the safety of my lord! 』

"Well..." Liu He didn't know whether it was because he believed the guard's words or some other factors. The murderous intent in his eyes gradually faded, and then he put on a smile, "It's okay!" It's all part of a plan! 』

"As the saying goes, good opportunities never come..." Liu He looked at Zhao Yun's camp in the distance, with an indescribable look on his face, "General Zhao... hum... If you follow General Zhao's arrangements, of course you and I will not worry about our lives." ...But this opportunity was missed! 』

"I know the nature of Wuhuan very well. At this moment, they will definitely be fighting for the throne of Wuhuan. If I don't take advantage of this moment to go, is it possible that we can wait until the throne is confirmed before we can discuss it?" Liu He waved his riding whip fiercely, "It's a pity that General Zhao didn't listen to good advice!" How sad! Otherwise, wouldn't the Wuhuan crowd be able to get it at their fingertips? 』

"But..." The guard still hesitated, "But...if the Wuhuan people know that it is...is...then wouldn't we..."

Liu He smiled proudly, "Even if you know it, what can you do?" The king of the barbarians is like a beast. Only the strong live there. There is neither inheritance nor destiny! By sending someone to assassinate the former king, he gave away an opportunity to the queen, and since he wanted to ascend the throne, how could he not have any external help? Even if you know that someone is doing it, what can you do? Aren't you going to bow your head obediently and please a certain horse? ! 』

After hearing this, the confidant guard seemed to think it made sense, but he also felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what went wrong...

"Walk! Set off! Liu He ordered again, "If General Zhao finds out, he will not be able to escape!" Hurry! 』

The trusted guard exhaled and could only suppress his thoughts. He whistled and ordered everyone to move forward together, riding down the hill and heading straight to the east...

……─=≡Σ(((つ·?ω·?)つ……

In Zhao Yun's camp.

"Liu Shijun is gone?" 』

When Liu Hefang heard something, the news reached Zhao Yun.

"General, would you like to..."

Zhao Yun thought for a moment, then shook his head, "Forget it, let him go!" No need to intercept! 』

For Zhao Yun, the importance of Liu He is not too great. The most important thing is that Liu He can still explore some new situations in Youbei and produce some new changes...

Just like playing cards, if there is a limit on the number of cards, such as Landlords, whoever plays out the cards first wins, so naturally it is not necessary to hold back the biggest cards until later, but if it is a round There is no time limit, and there is no card library restriction, so who will throw out the big cards at the beginning?

Therefore, in such a card game, it is the safest way to lure the opponent to play first, then use the minimum strength to deal with the opponent's cards according to the opponent's cards, and then wait until the opponent has no chance to continue, then attack in one fell swoop to determine the victory. .

Zhao Yun is cautious by nature, and now he feels that he has a heavy responsibility, so he is not allowed to take risks. But since Liu He is willing to test it out for Zhao Yun, it is like throwing out a small card, so why not?

As for Liu He’s personal life...

Zhao Yun has already advised him that for a person who wants to die, even if he is trapped, he will still find a way to die.

Therefore, we can only let Liu He go...

……(;￢＿￢)……

Wu Yan and his people happened to bump into Liu He.

"Very good! Just in time for revenge! "A little boss next to Wu Yan laughed and said with a ferocious face, "I was worried that I couldn't find my enemy, but then he showed up at my door! Give me a thousand men and horses, and I will go and capture him! Take out the heart and liver, and then..."

"Snapped! ” Wu Yan slapped the little boss aside who was gesticulating and spitting, “Get out! Don't get in front of me! 』

Dig your ass!

Wu Yan shouted for revenge, but that didn't mean that all his actions were for revenge.

These days, whoever just listens to others shouting slogans without thinking about why is really a fool...

Wu Yan is obviously not a fool.

When the old king of Wuhuan, Qiu Liju, died, his son Louban was young, so the old king's son Tadun took charge of Wuhuan. Later, when Louban grew up, he wanted to take back the royal power from Tadun, and finally in Fei With the assistance of Qian, Zhao Yun and others, they obtained the throne of Wuhuan, but in a sense, the Wuhuan people had already been divided.

Tadun and Su Buyan failed in their struggle for power and went south. Later I heard that he was dead...

When Wu Yan heard the news, he didn't know what he felt in his heart.

After all, when we were young, we were brothers who drank wine and had barbecue together.

And now, those who are dawdling are naturally not brothers... huh? Getting involved? Well, that’s probably what it means anyway…

Now for Wu Yan, which one is more important, drinking or eating barbecue?

Obviously, the throne is most important.

In fact, the moment Wu Yan discovered Liu He's whereabouts, he thought about using Liu He's head as his own merit, and competing for the throne of King Wu Huan in the name of avenging Lou Ban...

But soon, Wu Yan realized that the idea was wonderful, but it was difficult to execute.

It's not that it's difficult to kill Liu He, but it's difficult to ascend to the throne after killing him.

Revenge for Lou Ban is certainly a great achievement, but from another perspective, isn't this what all Wuhuan people should do? Since everyone in Wuhuan has the responsibility to avenge the king, then if Wuyan did it, what "special" achievements would be enough to ascend to the throne?

And if someone says that killing Liu He is nothing, after all, Liu He still has the instigator behind the scenes. When the time comes, will Wu Yan continue to kill him, or will he give up halfway?

When he thought of this, Wu Yan hesitated.

The death of Tadun, who only knew how to use force, shows that force can no longer be the only cornerstone of the throne.

You also need to have a brain...

"Someone is coming!" Wu Yan shouted in a deep voice, "Pass the order!" Don't do anything to Mr. Liu! Let him come over! 』

"Headman!" Why? 』

"Why not take revenge?" ! 』

"Are you going to betray the king?" 』

Everyone immediately started talking and was full of emotions.

"fart! Shut up! Wu Yan shouted, fiercely, "You brainless idiots!" Who says I have to give up revenge? I want better revenge! Do you think killing Liu He alone is considered revenge? fart! Why don't you use your dog brains to think carefully, can Liu He kill the king by himself? We should be like a good hunter, following the trails of prey and catching all the prey! If you kill Liu He now, the other prey will be frightened and run away. Where will you go to chase them? ah? ! A bunch of dog heads! 』

"idiot! Dog head! Don’t you think about it carefully? ! ah? Who said anything bad about me? stand out! ” Wu Yan was furious and squirted wildly. Everyone was scolded bloody, but they all calmed down. You look at me, I look at you, there is no objection.

Although the current Wu Yan is slightly different from his usual irritable and rude image, it can still be within the acceptable range of everyone, and take an example from a hunter chasing his prey. On the one hand, Everyone can understand. On the other hand, it also shows that Wu Yan is not cunning, he just has more experience in hunting...

Therefore, after Liu He arrived, the surrounding atmosphere was a little strange.

But Liu He thought this atmosphere was normal, so he seemed calm and composed, "I have important matters to discuss with King Guli, so please step aside..." The Wuhuan people's political structure itself came from the Xiongnu system. So the job titles are actually pretty much the same.

"..." Wu Yan stared, the flesh on his face trembled a few times, and then waved his hand.

The nobles around Wu Yan all retreated with their eyes widened, and some even deliberately made some provocative moves towards Liu He.

Liu He raised his head and pretended not to see him. He waited until everyone was almost gone before looking at Wu Yan again. "If King Gu Li only wants to be a King Gu Li who can be annexed at any time, he can kill me now..." ...But if you want to be the king of Wuhuan and become the real Chanyu of Wuhuan...I believe King Guli knows what to do..."

In order to divide the Wuhuan people, Yuan Shao enfeoffed many Chanyus, and Wuyan also had a share. Of course, the title of Shanyu does not count now, but when Liu He mentioned it, the corners of Wu Yan's eyes twitched.

"Liu Shijun..." Wu Yan sneered, "You are quite eloquent..." When alone with Liu He, Wu Yan also put down his vulgar appearance. Just like dogs who eat shit and can smell it when they open their mouths, whether they are playing politics or not, they can smell it more or less when they meet each other.

"I originally thought that I had to go near the royal court to find King Guli..." Liu He smiled and said, "It seems that the battle for the throne is more troublesome than I thought..."

Wu Yan snorted and seemed to be fiddling with the sword on his waist intentionally or unintentionally, "I can kill you now and then fight for the throne later!" 』

"Ha ha! Liu He laughed, "But that would be more troublesome... maybe we won't be able to fight for anything..."

Wu Yan stared at Liu He and said after a while: "Sometimes I really don't understand...your father...you and your father are really different..."

Speaking of Liu He's father, Liu He also slowly stopped laughing, and his face turned gloomy, "... In this world, honest and loyal people, if they don't know how to be more flexible... they would have died a long time ago... right?" 』

Wu Yan was silent for a moment, then laughed twice, "Shijun Liu is right!" After all, what's Liu Shijun's clever plan? 』

"No hurry..." Liu He said, "I would like to trouble King Guli to tell me about the situation in the royal court first..."

……(··)nnn……

The other side.

In the camp of Cao Jun.

"calm! ” Cao Hong frowned and looked at Cao Chun, “Calm down! Zihe! How can you take on such a big responsibility if you lose your composure? 』

Cao Chun gasped, feeling that either he was crazy, or Cao Hong was crazy, or the world was crazy, "You want me to go to Gongsun to ask for peace?" ! 』

Cao Hong nodded. "exactly. It’s not my request, it’s the Lord’s order! 』

"..." Cao Chun stared at Cao Hong, breathing heavily.

"As for why I want Zi to go with you..." Cao Hong did not evade, and faced Cao Chun's gaze head on, "I think Zi He should be able to understand the reason!" 』

The veins on Cao Chun's forehead were jumping, "I don't understand!" 』

Cao Hong snorted, "No, you understand." You just don't want to understand. 』

"Let others go!" ” Cao Chun pointed with his hand and said with some vibrato at the end, “Can’t we let Wen Qian go? 』

Cao Hong looked at Cao Chun and shook his head slowly, "It's best if you go." So why let anyone else go? Is your face more important, or is the master's plan more important? 』

Cao Chun gritted his teeth and looked ferocious. Not long after Cao Chun recovered from the depression of losing Yuyang, he was hit in the head by Cao Hong and fell into the abyss again.

"I do not want to go! 』Cao Chun made a final struggle, but this struggle was so weak.

Cao Hong's face was as dark as water, "Is this something you want or don't want?" This is an order! If it weren't for the sake of being of the same clan and clan, as you just said, I could punish you for disobeying orders! 』

"..." Cao Chun gasped and turned his head to the side.

"You should feel honored!" If the lord chooses me, I will have no objection! ” Cao Hong said in a deep voice, “I’ll say it for the last time! Think about who you are? Whose last name is it? Come back to me when you figure it out! Now, get out of here! 』

Cao Chun turned around, opened the curtain of the big tent, lowered his head, and didn't look at anyone. When he was inside his tent, he kicked over the table in his tent, and then pulled out his sword to chop down the table. Got to be torn apart...

"General..." Cao Chun's guard heard the sound and stretched his head in. He was startled, "This..."

"Get out!" ”Cao Chun shouted angrily without looking back.

"..." Guard Cao Chun retracted his head, and then lowered the curtain of the tent.

The tent suddenly fell into darkness.

Summation...

It's never been a good job.

Yuyang has almost become a scar in Cao Chun's heart, and now not only does this scar have to be reopened, but also someone has to sprinkle a pinch of salt on it. At the same time, Cao Chun has to send it to the door himself, stripping off his clothes and letting his opponent spread... …

Who is willing to change it? Who will feel better?

I'm afraid only a heartless person would accept such a task without any grudges.

Many times, it seems like you have a choice, but in fact you don’t.

Just like now, Cao Chun had no choice.

He must go.

Normally speaking, Gongsun Du came to conquer Xia Yuyang just to prepare for Cao Jun's counterattack. Even if Cao Cao sent someone with a flexible tongue to sue for peace, it was impossible to completely dispel Gongsun Du's vigilance. The sharper the talk, the more Gongsun Du would suspect that it was Cao Jun's plan.

Therefore, only if Cao Chun goes with humiliation, and then makes Gongsun Du aware of Cao Chun's humiliation and helplessness, will Gongsun Du believe in the authenticity of the peace talks more. Moreover, the more humiliated and helpless Cao Chun is, the easier it will be for Gongsun Du to let Gongsun Du Relax your guard...

For a former Yuyang guard general to come to sue for peace in such a humiliating and humiliating manner, there must be some ulterior difficulties among Cao's army. As for what the difficulty is, Cao Chun will definitely not say, but it is enough for Gongsun Du to explore in this direction, and then "accidentally" obtain some information, which can prove that Cao Jun is now unable to attack Yuyang, and it will naturally Letting down some of your guard will give Cao Jun a better chance of winning in his future strategic implementation.

Heaven and earth are like a chessboard.

Everyone is a pawn.

When strategizing, when looking at each battle situation, do we need to understand the emotions of each chess piece in detail?

Are the feelings of these chess pieces important?

Who would ask the chess piece if it hurts while playing chess? Does it hurt?

Of course, keep shooting as hard as you can, as long as you feel comfortable playing chess!

At a certain moment, Cao Chun even preferred that he knew nothing, could not understand anything, obeyed orders, and felt nothing...

Like a wooden chess piece.

No pain, no itching, no emotion.

But the irony is that it was precisely because Cao Chun was full of emotions for Yuyang that Cao Hongcai said that Cao Chun was the most suitable and had no choice but to let him go.

Cao Chun understood this, so he became more and more resentful, angry, sad, and extremely helpless.

"Guo Fengxiao!" ” Cao Chun made some sounds from between his teeth, as if he was crying, but also as if he was cursing, “You must not die well!” 』

This must be the plan of that damn Guo Jia! A plan that takes everyone's emotions into account!

However, is this really Guo Jia's plan?

The last words Cao Hong said were also a serious warning.

Cao Chun, Cao Zihe.

The first one to bear the brunt is "Cao", and then there is "Chun", or "Zihe"!

Cao Cao's layout is very large, and it is obviously not enough to just pretend to be Gongsun Du. It is necessary to show the enemy's weakness, otherwise what is the point of giving up the bait of Yuyang?

This is the superficial meaning of Cao Hong's last sentence. Even a fool can understand it, but the deeper meaning of Cao Hong's sentence makes Cao Chun shudder...

Did Cao Cao know that Gongsun Du was coming to attack Yuyang at the beginning?

It's possible, but it's also possible that we don't know. After all, such a large strategic layout obviously could not have been done in a hurry after Gongsun Du arrived. In other words...

Cao Chun seemed to feel a hint of chill, like the ice under the Nine Netherworld, so cold that his bones hurt. He dropped the sword in his hand, his whole body trembled slightly, and he whined like a wounded animal in his throat, "The world...the world...is it worth it...is it worth it..."
