The Supreme Call of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 290 Tai Chi pusher Chen Changwen

Cao Cao left Cao Ren and others to sit in Bingzhou, and rushed all the way to Yuzhou with [-] elite troops.

Jingqi traveled day and night, and in just half a month, he had already killed Jiyin County from Bingzhou City, which was only one step away from Lu County.

However, when they came to Jiyin, the city of Lu County had already been destroyed.

Xiahou Dun and Le Jin Li Dian defended with all their strength, and it was almost impossible to withstand the attack of Liu Xiao's army with only [-] remnants of the army. By the time Liu Xiao took Shanyang County and Pei County, Xiahou Dun had already I dare not continue to defend Lu County to the death. If Liu Xiao takes Jiyin County again, Lu County will be surrounded from all sides. At that time, a remnant of my own army will hang out alone, and it will be a dead end!
Xiahou Dun did not dare to continue to defend, so he led the remaining defeated soldiers and had to withdraw from Lu County, retreated all the way to the southwest, and entered Jiyin County at the same time.

Liu Xiao's army pursued on three sides, and drove Xiahou Dun to the sky with nowhere to go, and when there was nowhere to escape, Cao Cao's army finally arrived.

After receiving the military information, Cao Cao did not dare to neglect, and immediately sent Xu Chu and Xiong Kuohai to lead [-] elite cavalry to meet Xiahou Dun.

The two sides started a fight in the eastern part of Jiyin County. Cao Cao fought with all his strength. It took a whole day to repel Liu Xiao's pursuers. Xiahou Dun and others finally saved their lives.

"The last general waited to see the lord, but he failed to defend Langya County and Yuzhou, so please punish the lord!"

Xiahou Dun and Le Jin Li Dian knelt down on the ground, weeping and said, it's too tragic, 1 and the army were beaten by Liu Xiao to less than [-] people, if Xiahou Dun hadn't seen the opportunity quickly, he quickly withdrew from Lu County , even if there are more than [-] troops, they will all be made dumplings by Liu Xiao.

"Get up,"

When Cao Cao saw Xiahoudun, his grief came from it. The two brothers followed him in the north and south, and made countless achievements. Unexpectedly, saying goodbye to the two would become a forever farewell.

Cao Cao sighed: "Yuan Rang, Liu Xiao is full of tricks, uses soldiers like a god, and has gunpowder to help. It is not your fault. Where is Miaocai's body?"

Xiahou Dun said in a low voice: "My lord, I sent someone to Qiao County first, and the fallen leaves return to their roots, so I can't..."

Cao Cao shed tears, and said coldly: "Okay, I'll go to pay homage to the sacrifice in person!"

Le Jin said in a deep voice: "My lord, since the reinforcements have arrived, we should counterattack with all our strength, defeat Liu Xiao in one fell swoop, take back the three counties of Yuzhou and Langya County, and avenge General Miaocai. The last general is willing to be the vanguard!"

Cao Cao shook his head and replied: "Wen Qian, Liu Xiao is in full swing now, and we have no chance of winning a decisive battle with him. In any case, all the other counties and states in Yuzhou are now owned by us, and most of Bingzhou has also fallen into our hands. The continuous battle has cost the country a lot, so temporarily withdraw the troops and rest and recuperate, wait for me to order someone to write a letter to discuss peace with Liu Xiao!"

Soon, a letter written by Cao Cao was sent to Liu Xiao's tent.

For Cao Cao's arrival, Liu Xiao had already prepared for it. Cao Cao was not sure that he would completely wipe out Liu Xiao, and Liu Xiao was also not sure that he would win the battle, especially since he had been fighting non-stop for these years. Although Qingzhou and Jizhou were rich in wealth and people, But he couldn't stand the constant tossing like this, the consumption was too great.

Similarly, Cao Cao’s consumption is not small. After all, Cao Cao only relies on Sili and Yanzhou. The damage suffered by the two states during the war was too serious. A large number of farmers were displaced and fled everywhere, and the population dropped sharply. The money and food support Cao Cao's endless battles?If you want to decide the outcome with Liu Xiao, you don't have three to five months, or even more than half a year, don't even think about it!
"General Xuangan, this is our Prime Minister's handwritten letter, please read it!"

Long Shi Chen Qun was appointed by Cao Cao to come to Liu Xiao's camp to discuss peace matters, and said to Liu Xiao.

Liu Xiao took the letter, read it carefully, handed it to Zhou Yu, and said with a smile: "Gong Jin, how about it? I said that Meng De is a smart man, and he won't continue to fight with us. Why would you want to turn hostility into friendship?" Why not?"

Zhou Yu shook his head slightly. The bet was lost. He believed that Cao Cao had defeated Lu Bu to occupy Bingzhou, and his strength had greatly increased. In addition, Liu Xiao had beheaded Cao Cao's confidant, Xia Houyuan, and seized the three counties of Yuzhou. How could Cao Cao let it go?I'm afraid you have to turn the world upside down to be able to give up. After all, Cao Cao is not Liu Biao. Liu Biao has no great ambitions.

However, I didn't expect that Cao Cao really didn't want to fight Liu Xiao as Liu Xiao judged. He just came to Jiyin and wanted to shake hands with Liu Xiao. What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd?Could it be that Cao Cao is just a strong outsider and a middle-aged man?
"Mr. Changwen!"

Liu Xiao said with a smile: "It's not impossible for Meng De to shake hands and make peace. I didn't intend to be an enemy of Meng De, but Meng De knew how to think about this matter first. I fought against Liu Bei in Jiangdong. Meng De Instigated Lu Bu to send troops to Jizhou behind his back, and at the same time sent troops to invade Langya County, but the lives of Langya County were ruined, and hundreds of thousands of lives were destroyed in the flames of war. This is not a sentence, two sentences can be settled..."

Chen Qun said with a smile: "What General Xuangan said is true. However, as a minister, the prime minister obeys the edict of the emperor and obeys the wishes of the princes. Some things are beyond the prime minister's control. Don't say anything else. Suspected that the general is Liu Bian, the abolished emperor, involved in the struggle for imperial power, no matter how benevolent the emperor is, it would be unbearable ..."

Chen Qun is worthy of being an old fox. With a few words, he pushed all the faults on the head of Han Xiandi, and let Han Xiandi's puppet bear all the blame. Liu Xiao was speechless for a while, saying that Cao Cao was shameless , Emotions are contagious. Look at Chen Qun in front of you. You are simply confusing right and wrong. The emperor’s will, you are such a fool...

Liu Xiao sneered and said, "The Changwen has been completely dismissed, but now that Meng De wants to stop the army, isn't he afraid of violating the emperor's will?"

Chen Qun blushed slightly, and quickly replied: "General Xuangan laughed. Black is always black and white is always white. It cannot be changed. The emperor was deceived by the traitors around him for a while, so he just issued the order. Now that the truth has come to light, the emperor can't help Xuanqian." General Gan will not let him go, after all, General Xuangan is still the uncle of the emperor's clan in terms of seniority, how can a dignified Han clan rebel against his own family?"

"Which treacherous minister is it? Can you tell me?"

Liu Xiao forced to ask.

"Liu Bei, Liu Xuande!"

Chen Qun bit the bullet and replied: "It is Liu Bei who wrote the letter to the court, suspecting that General Xuangan is the abolished emperor Liu Bian, who changed his name and changed his surname to accumulate strength and tried to replace him with the emperor. Please also remind the general!"
