How to deal with Sun Ce, in yesterday's Prime Minister's Mansion, there was no result discussed.

Because unless Sun Ce died, there was no way to deal with Sun Ce's attack.

If Sun Ce attacked Xu Du, Xu Du would inevitably be breached.

Unless Cao Cao left 50,000 horses in Xudu.

But Cao Cao only had more than 100,000 people in his hands, and if he left many soldiers and horses in Xudu, he would have no chance of winning in the face of Zhao Hui.

In terms of time, it was too late for Cao Cao to be fully prepared.

Zhao Hui is not Yuan Shao, Zhao Hui's movements are very fast.

To avoid being driven straight by Zhao Hui's army, Cao Cao must also go on the expedition as soon as possible.

Therefore, on the morning of the second day, Man Zhong and others began to play, asking Liu Xie, the son of heaven, to go out with him.

Liu Xie's lips squirmed, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

These days, he has been looking forward to Cao Cao's departure, but he didn't expect that Cao Cao would take him with him.

This made Liu Xie unacceptable, and he also wanted to take advantage of Cao Cao's departure to unite a group of courtiers to control Xu Du and cut off Cao Cao's back road.

But now that he is looking at the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, no one has stood up against his personal conquest.

In today's court, at least two-thirds of the ministers are on Cao Cao's side.

This is different from when Dong Zhuo was at the beginning.

When Dong Zhuo, many ministers dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.

It is Dong Zhuo's word. Dong Zhuo said whatever he wanted, no one dared to object, even if it was the Son of Heaven, he could only bow his head in humiliation.

And now, Cao Cao doesn't need to speak, and the ministers are free to speak.

And he, the son of heaven, can only nod.

In Liu Xie's heart, there is no difference between Cao Cao and Dong Zhuo.

But in the minister's heart, there is a big difference between Cao Cao and Dong Zhuo.

First of all, in terms of identity, the ministers of the court and the central government are also more accepting of Cao Cao.

Dong Zhuo is just a martial artist, and he was born to disobey the scholars in the court.

Even if Dong Zhuo has a period of time, he is also a very polite corporal.

He was very polite to the scholars, and recalled the scholars who had been affected by the party's troubles.

But those scholars just couldn't get used to Dong Zhuo, a martial artist, controlling the government, and they always opposed Dong Zhuo and always wanted to kill Dong Zhuo.

And although Cao Cao now regards the Son of Heaven as a puppet, after all, he still hasn't persecuted Liu Xie on the surface, and many people pretend not to see it.

Even if there are people who are dissatisfied with Cao Cao, what Cao Cao is doing now is not as excessive as Dong Zhuo, so they endured it.

Now this group of ministers in the court is far inferior to the group of people during Dong Zhuo's dictatorship.

Liu Xie's gaze finally fell on Cao Cao, who was in the forefront.

"Since all of you Aiqing think that I want to drive the expedition, then I will drive the expedition and will never let you down." Liu Xie had no choice, he knew that he might not be able to get out of Cao Cao's control in his life.

Dong Zhuo would have given him a chance at the beginning, but Cao Cao would never give him another chance.

The royal conquest has been decided.

Liu Xie can only hope that Cao Cao will lose to Zhao Hui now.

It's just that Cao Cao is defeated, what fate will he have?

In the city of Xudu, martial law began.

There was no court for the next few days, and everyone was preparing.

The edict to Ma Teng and Han Sui has also been sent.

At the same time, Cao Cao sent people to Xuzhou.

contacted Liu Bei again and said that he could no longer pursue Liu Bei's conspiratorship with Dong Cheng and others to murder him.

I hope that Liu Bei can send troops to help him and resist Zhao Hui together.

Originally, Cao Cao was going to attack Xuzhou again this year, but unfortunately Zhao Hui did not give him time.

Zhao Hui's movements were fast, the vanguard army had already set off, and Cao Cao no longer had time to think about attacking Xuzhou.

So he could only come to Liu Bei to cooperate.

In the same way, the messenger also went to see Lu Bu.

It's just that the rhetoric of one and the two sides is different.

It was Yuan Tan who came to see Lu Bu, and his second brother Yuan Xi is now here in Lu Bu.

Compared to his just a fictitious position in Xudu, Yuan Xi still has a certain amount of real power here in Lu Bu.

However, there is no way to compare with the generals in Lu Bu's original hands.

To prevent Yuan Tan from escaping, Cao Cao also sent Li Dian to follow him as a deputy envoy.

The two brothers have not seen each other for nearly two years, and the original competition for the heart of Jizhou has long been a thing of the past.

They're all wretched creatures under the fence now.

So the two brothers, for the first time in more than 20 years, have a sense of family affection.

When we met, we talked a lot about childhood.

"Second brother, this time Cao Cao allowed me to follow the expedition, I will definitely avenge my father and kill Zhao Hui. You are on Lu Bu's side, and you should also waste more thought and persuade Lu Bu to crusade against Zhao Hui together. Yuan Tan said.

Although Yuan Tan desperately wanted to leave Cao Cao, he also hoped that Zhao Hui would be defeated, so that the four states of Hebei would be in chaos, and he would have the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

If Zhao Hui wins, he can only continue to flee to the south, but what he wants to stay most is the north.

He was accustomed to life in the north and did not like the sweltering environment of the south.

Yuan Xi shook his head and said: "Big brother, I can't speak here at all, Lu Bu won't listen to me, if you want Lu Bu to conquer Liu Bei, you must first convince Chen Gong." ”

Yuan Xi has been in Xuzhou for two years and knows a little about it.

Unlike Yuan Tan, who fled to Yanzhou with only the remnants of the army.

Yuan Xi had evacuated with Feng Ji in advance, and Yuan Xi's strength was better preserved.

And Feng Ji has always been by his side, and now he is still planning for him.

Chen Deng thought that there was a person behind Lu Bu, and Feng Ji also guessed that there was someone behind Lu Bu.

In the past two years, Feng Ji and Yuan Tan have not moved, but they have been secretly observing Lu Bu.

Now in Xuzhou, in addition to Liu Bei wanting to take a bite, Yuan Xi also wants to occupy Xuzhou.

If Lu Bu was willing to send troops to recruit Zhao Hui, Yuan Xi would be very happy.

But he knew that it was basically impossible.

Chen Deng didn't guess the person behind Lu Bu, but Feng Ji had some guesses, thinking that behind Lu Bu, there has always been Zhao Hui's support.

In the past two years, they have been secretly observing, and Lu Bu has not been in contact with other people at all.

And the relationship between Lu Bu and Zhao Hui is relatively better than others.

At the beginning, Lu Bu escaped from Chang'an, all the way from Nanyang to Yanzhou to Jizhou, and then to Youzhou.

It belongs to Zhao Hui to Lu Bu is the best, although Lu Bu left Youzhou later, but Feng Ji guessed that there was still a connection between Lu Bu and Zhao Hui.

Feng Ji has a very smart mind.

It's just that his character is a little worse, and he likes to fight for power and profit.

After Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi finished speaking, they were taken to meet Lu Bu.

"Yuan Tan has seen the hussar general."

Yuan Tan vaguely remembered that when Lu Bu arrived in Jizhou, he was like a lost dog and wanted to rely on the Yuan family.

But now, the two brothers are not as good as Lu Bu.

There was a big gap in his heart, but Yuan Tan also remembered his task in his heart, and when he faced Lu Bu, he was very respectful.

"The prime minister said that when the battle with Zhao Hui is over, he will help the general, let the general take full control of Xuzhou, and will invite the Son of Heaven to make the general a general."
