The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 899 The Birth of Cao Wei
Cao Cao woke up slowly under the care of the doctor, but he was not relieved to see all the ministers around him, but something big happened again!
The lost memory of Yang Biao's rebellion against Hongnong emerged in his mind. Based on Cao Cao's understanding of Lu Heng, there must be someone behind him, which means there is worse news.

"How long have I been unconscious?" Cao Cao asked, rubbing his forehead.

"Report to my lord for a day and a night." The doctor replied respectfully.

"You step down first! Is there any bad news for Gongda?" Boss Cao asked Xun You the next sentence.

After the doctor retreated respectfully, Xun You said, "My lord, Tai Shici led the cavalry to go north and cut off the road between Sanguan and Hanzhong.

General Cao Hong led the troops and was trapped to death in Sili like General Xiahou Dun.

In addition, Du Gao's army has approached Shangyong.

Zhao Yun in Jiangzhou and Di Qing in Chengdu both reported large-scale troop deployments.

Zhang Xiu led Xiliang iron cavalry to assemble in Sanfu.

Song Emperor Lu Heng was stationed in Huai County on the opposite bank of Mengjin Ferry.

I believe that as long as the lord makes a slight move, the Song army will launch a thunderous attack. "

Every word of Xun You pierced into Cao Cao's heart like a sharp knife. What he said was Cao Cao's current situation.

Hongnong lost Sili's two main armies and was trapped. Hanzhong was short of troops and was very empty. The control of Sanfu's chaotic land was already low, and Zhang Xiu's Xiliang iron cavalry made a comeback.

"Is there no good news?" Cao Cao looked at Xun You and asked.

"It's not impossible. The only good news is that Zhao Defang is waiting for the lord to wake up, and the Song army has not fully started to move yet!"

Xun You's tone was also a little lonely, it's definitely not good to lose everything before the fight starts!

This is Lu Heng's discussion with Zhuge Liang, Jia Xu, Tian Feng, Jushou, Lu Su, Wen Huanzhang, Xu Guanzhong and other military personnel after Yang Biao rebelled against Cao Cao and dispatched Murong Yanzhao, Li Jilong and the Huns. later plans.

The legions of Du Gao, Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, Di Qing, Zhang Liao, Zhang Jie, and Zhang Yu have never been mobilized because of Cao Cao. If they are given a good opportunity today, they will naturally give Boss Cao a thunderous blow.

There is also a reason why the onslaught was not launched immediately.

The first is to prevent Cao Cao from just finishing his battle with the Liao people, and those who are interested will say that they disregard national morality and take advantage of others' dangers.

The second is that Lu Heng deliberately did this. In the southern part of Liao, Lu Heng hoped that Cao Cao was a threat, not a weak Cao Cao. After Cao Chong's death, Lu Heng also received news that Cao Cao and Liao both hated each other, and Cao Cao was there. The South's plan to contain Lu Heng from sending troops to the Western Regions will go much smoother.

Combining all the above, it is impossible for Lu Heng to wait for Cao Cao to transfer the elite back to Hanzhong, and it is meaningless to fight him again. There are enough civil wars!It can be over!
"Little Lu Heng is trying to force someone from me, Cao, to express his opinion! This kid was born 20 years earlier, so maybe the big guy can still be saved!" Cao Cao suddenly said something irrelevant.

Xun You was silent when he heard Cao Cao's words. He, Xun Gongda, is 51 years old now and he came from that era. At that time, relatives, eunuchs, and gentry in the Eastern Han Dynasty were constantly fighting for power. Even if Lu Heng was born 20 years earlier, he was still the same age as Cao Cao. What does the environment do?
Cao Cao pulled the scarf off his head: "Go and meet Zhao Defang!"

"My lord, this..."

Before Xun You finished speaking, Cao Cao interrupted: "If you lose, you lose. Cao Cao doesn't have to force it if the destiny is not in my hands!"

When Cao Cao saw Zhao Defang, he exchanged pleasantries and accused himself of neglecting the messenger because of a sudden headache, as if these dangerous situations did not exist.

People who don’t know think that the person in front of them is an idiot who doesn’t care when life and death are at stake, but no one would think so when Cao Cao is in front of them. Seeing Cao Cao’s smile, Zhao Defang secretly said: “Mount Tai collapsed before it didn’t change color, This demeanor is indeed something His Majesty values."

Cao Cao held Zhao Defang's hand very enthusiastically: "Brother Defang, I wonder if the suggestion of the emperor of Song Dynasty still counts?"

Zhao Defang knew what Cao Cao meant and admired Cao Cao's bearing and cheekiness. The situation at the time was very different from the current situation, but he couldn't refute it!
Without him, Cao Cao and Da Song haven't officially fought yet, and the two sides have not started a war in name, so it is naturally considered during the negotiation period. Boss Cao took off the title of "Emperor of Song Dynasty" when he started, implying that the emperor must keep his promises and never say what he says. !

Fortunately, Zhao Defang also got Lu Heng's instruction and knew what to do and didn't panic: "It's natural, if Mr. Cao is willing to give up the land of Middle-earth, he will be a country of brothers!"

"Brother De Fang, what is the land of Middle Earth? Wherever the sun and moon shine, and where the rivers and rivers flow, it is all Han land!" Cao Cao's eyes were fixed on Zhao Defang's.

"Your Majesty also said something, you and I are both descendants of Yan and Huang, and we are all Chinese people. China is really strong when it is strong. The world is so big, why do you only focus on China with short-sighted eyes?
To the west of Yizhou, there are Shendu, Guishuang, Anxi, and Western Qin (Rome), and to the north there are Xianbei, Jurchen, Mongolia, and the Western Regions. As long as Cao Gong is willing, Your Majesty will create a prosperous China with Cao Gong! "

Zhao Defang's words are obvious, the world is so big, let Cao Cao roam around, don't stare at the three acres of land in the middle land, since Cao Cao's current territory Xianbei, Jurchen, and Mongolia do not border Cao Cao, implying that the goal of the Great Song Dynasty will be in the north, including the Western Regions .

Similarly, west of Yizhou, Cao Cao is bordered by Siam and the Western Regions, and west of Shuanggui, Shendu, etc., let Cao Cao develop.

"Haha! What a great one who created a prosperous China! Cao admires it! But Cao of Liao Kingdom must be destroyed!" Cao Cao suddenly changed his style of painting and said his conditions with murderous aura.

"My Great Song Dynasty in the Western Regions will also recover, Your Majesty has something to say first! Each depends on his ability!"

"it is good!"

The short conversation brought history to a turning point. The next moment Cao Cao issued two completely different orders. Chen Qun, Fazheng, and Meng Day garrisoned in Yizhou, and the three auxiliary garrisons of Zhong Yao, Wei Duan, and Wei Kang withdrew to Hanzhong.

This order means that all the Sanfu areas including Mianzhu and Zitong in the north of Yizhou, as well as Chang'an, will be abandoned.

But Cao Cao's next order was that Cao Cao established himself as the king of Wei, and established Xun You, Cheng Yu, and Chen Qun as the three mansions.

Xun You, Cheng Yu, Sima Yi and others knew that Cao Cao's self-establishment of Wei Wang was just a transition, and they had agreed to Lu Heng's suggestion and admired Cao Cao's courage.

Half a month later, Chen Qun, who was stationed in Mianzhu, received Cao Cao's order to be appointed as Sikong, but retreated to Hanzhong with Fazheng and Mengda.

And Zhao Yun and Di Qing also took over Mianzhu, Zitong and other Yizhou places, and Zhang Xiu also successfully took over Chang'an!

Cao Cao did not order the relocation of the population, so Cao Cao actually controlled only Hanzhong and Luoyang.

Lu Heng saw that Cao Cao accepted his terms so readily, and Zhang Xiu, Zhao Yun, and Di Qing took over the land smoothly, and sent envoys to congratulate Cao Cao on being the Duke of Wei.
