Chapter 451: Cao Cao's Scheme
Liu Dai didn't want to have too much friendship with Cao Cao and Zhang Miao, after all, they had only fought hard before, and both sides had losses, but in order to avenge his younger brother Liu Miao and kill the enemy as soon as possible, Liu Dai had to pull down his face to catch up with Cao Cao and Zhang Miao.
In fact, Cao Cao, Zhang Miao and Liu Dai did not have a deep hatred.
The reason why the two sides fought was mainly because Cao Cao and Zhang Miao had participated in Yuan Shao's Ten Towns Princes' crusade against He Miao before.
This matter made Liu Dai, who was the pastor of Yanzhou, send troops to deal with Cao Cao, but now that Cao Cao and Zhang Miao have been reappointed as officials by the imperial court, everyone is in the same boat again, and the natural hatred is resolved.
In addition, Liu Dai was originally a relative of the Han family, and Cao Cao and Zhang Miao also had to sell some face, so after Liu Dai opened his mouth, he took the initiative to answer.
"Lord Zhou Mu, what I said is that Yuan Shu is really a wolf with ambition, and like his eldest brother Yuan Shao, he is a man of few eyes."
Zhang Miao is Chen Liutaishou, Liu Dai is Yanzhou Mu, speaking of which, they are still a relationship between superiors and subordinates, Zhang Miao actually wants to have a good relationship with Liu Dai, after all, it is easy to establish an enemy, but it is difficult to make a friend.
"Yes, Yuan Shu's puppet, he actually dared to kill the imperial court officials, set himself up as the Yangzhou pastor, and wanted to be the emperor, it is simply whimsical, when we pacify Yuan Shu, I will recommend Brother Meng Zhuo to be the Yangzhou pastor."
At this time, Liu Dai heard Zhang Miao's compliment, and saw that the more Zhang Miao looked at it, the more he felt that Zhang Miao was more pleasing to the eye.
"Then thank you Lord Zhoumu, how can we break through this Shouchun City?"
Zhang Miao and Liu Dai chatted, and soon began to discuss how to break Shouchun City.
"Yuan Shu, don't be afraid, his men are only twenty or thirty thousand soldiers and horses, we can break through the city in an instant, but I don't think we need to take down this Shouchun City."
Cao Cao, who had never spoken, suddenly said a sentence when Zhang Miao and Liu Dai were communicating with each other on how to break Shouchun, interrupting their words.
Cao Cao is the lowest among the three, Cao Cao was just a spokesman in the imperial court, and when he followed Huangfu Song to exterminate the Yellow Turban Army, his military position was only a cavalry captain.
Later, he had no merit, and the reason why he became one of the princes of the Ten Towns was also because he recruited soldiers and horses in his hometown and followed Zhang Miao, the Chen Liutaishou, to send troops together.
Compared with Zhang Miao and Liu Dai, one is a state pastor and the other is a taishou, Cao Cao's official position is indeed the lowest, but he can't stand Cao Cao's intelligence, and the soldiers and horses are strong enough, Zhang Miao likes to get together with Cao Cao.
"Brother Meng De, why do you say this?"
As soon as Cao Cao opened his mouth, Liu Dai and Zhang Miao were shocked at the same time, and their faces were full of doubts, so they had to ask Cao Cao.
"What does Taishou and Lord Zhou Mu think, what is the relationship between Yuan Shu and that Liu Zheng?"
"I heard people say that Liu Zheng and Yuan Shu have nothing to do with each other, but when Yuan Shu attacked Lujiang, I don't know how Liu Zheng appeared and helped Lu Kang relieve the siege of Lujiang, and then Liu Zheng said to Yuan Shu in front of the battle and asked him to attack Huainan, which killed my brother Liu Xuan, thinking about it, Liu Zheng and Yuan Shu should have reached a secret agreement."
Liu Dai told Cao Cao and Zhang Miao some of the information under his control, and the matter of Liu Zheng and Yuan Shu in Lujiang that day, in front of so many soldiers, was not a secret matter, and naturally it was known by many people, so it was nothing to be able to reach Liu Dai's mouth.
After Liu Dai finished speaking, Cao Cao immediately nodded.
"Yes, I think so too, Liu Zheng and that Yuan Shu must have some private agreement, if we besiege Yuan Shu, will Liu Zheng sit idly by?"
"I think Liu Zheng will definitely not sit idly by, because after our three parties gathered 80,000 troops and eliminated Yuan Shu, the target must be Liu Zheng, then Liu Zheng is extremely smart, so he naturally understands this truth."
"So he will definitely not watch Yuan Shu be defeated by us, after all, he understands the truth of cold lips and teeth, that Liu Zheng has always disliked to directly border the enemy's territory, when he was in Yangzhou, he did not directly border with Liu Xuanzhoumu's territory, but installed a Yan Baihu in the middle."
"There is Yan Baihu for him to block Liu Xuan's attack, and at the same time to contain Liu Xuan at this time, and now, he has repeated his old tricks and placed Yuan Shu in Huainan County, the purpose is to let Yuan Shu attract the attention of the imperial court, and he himself can take the opportunity to cultivate."
"If what I expected is true, Liu Zheng will definitely not let Yuan Shu be killed by us like this, he should quickly lead his troops to help after receiving the news, according to the time calculation, think about it, it should be these two days."
Cao Cao said everything he was thinking about in his heart, which immediately made Zhang Miao and Liu Dai's expressions change suddenly, and they glanced at Cao Cao fiercely.
I was secretly saying in my heart, why didn't I think of this kind of thing.
"Brother Meng De, Gao Jian, I think the same as you, then Liu Zheng will definitely come to the rescue of this Yuan Shu, then we don't attack the city, we only need Shouchun City to wait for Liu Zheng to come to the rescue?"
Liu Dai heard what Cao Cao meant from Cao Cao's words, and immediately asked rhetorically.
"Yes, we take Yuan Shu too seriously, Yuan Shu is just a clown who jumps off the beam, he has no ability at all, if we want to defeat him, we can do it at any time, our real enemy should be Liu Zheng."
"That guy is a really tricky character, and he is also the person who is the most headache for the imperial court, in my opinion, the disaster of Yuan Shao and the Karasuma people is less than half of Liu Zheng!"
Cao Cao solemnly said to Zhang Miao and Liu Dai beside him.
It can be seen that in Cao Cao's heart, how high is the evaluation of Liu Zheng, and the simple battle with Liu Zheng at the beginning made Liu Zheng such a number one person completely imprinted traces in Cao Cao's heart.
But Zhang Miao and Liu Dai have never fought with Liu Zheng, and their understanding of Liu Zheng is only from some rumors, and the news in the war reports in peacetime, although they have some admiration for Liu Zheng, but it is not completely to the point where they attach importance to it.
Although Liu Zheng now occupies the entire Jiaozhou, as well as most of Yangzhou, the remote areas of Jiaozhou, the land that is not uprooted, and one state is even inferior to the two counties in the Central Plains, naturally it is impossible for Zhang Miao and Liu Dai to pay attention to it.
"Brother Meng De is not too high that Liu Zheng, in my opinion, although Liu Zheng is brave and strategic, but it is just luck, he can rely on the identity of an anti-thief to get to this day, it is considered lucky, but today, when he met me, his good luck will come to an end."
Zhang Miao is a little conceited and looks down on Liu Zheng, who was born as an anti-thief.
