After being scolded by Liu Xie, these ministers calmed down their anxiety, and quickly stood still and bowed their heads in silence, causing punishment in life.
Seeing that the situation was a little better, Liu Xie looked at Cao Cao, who was frowning, and asked gently: "Is there any way, Prime Minister, to defeat the enemy and solve the disaster of Guishuang Kingdom?"
Guandu's new defeat just happened to be the time when he needed to recuperate and recover his strength, and Cao Cao was also in a dilemma when this catastrophe came.
Guishuang's army has a large number of people. It is not impossible to stop them in Xiliang, but it is necessary to do everything in their power. Then in the future, he will definitely be powerless in the battle with Li Huiyi.
On the one hand, the safety of the country and the nation, and on the other, the life and death of the Han family and even the entire Cao family, Cao Cao didn't know how to choose for a while.
Hearing Liu Xie's question at this time, Cao Cao quickly made a decision in his heart, and said slowly: "Han can perish, Cao can die, and the thousand-year inheritance cannot be broken."
"I also ask your Majesty to issue a death edict and pass it on to all states and counties, so that the soldiers and civilians will fight to the death. If there is a word to retreat the timid, the three tribes will be wiped out."
Cao Cao's words were filled with the determination to fight decisively, and filled the hearts of the few people with great righteousness in the court with passionate fighting spirit.
Shang Shu ordered Xun Yu to kneel down without waiting for everyone's reaction, and said: "The prime minister is right, old minister, please give your majesty an order quickly so as not to delay the battle."
Even Xun Yu, who had always been interested in relying on Liu Xie, took the lead in agreeing, but the rest dared not hesitate to bow down and agree.
"Your Majesty, dare to give orders!"
"Your Majesty, dare to give orders!"
……
The unanimous voice in the court hall made Liu Xie exude a trace of imperial temperament, and he waved his big hand and said: "Okay, pass on the imperial decree, ordering the soldiers and civilians of the thirteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty to stand by to defend against the enemy. If anyone attacks each other at this time, all Treat it as a traitor to the enemy, everyone can be punished."
"There are also those who retreat without fighting or join the enemy, no matter how high their positions are or how powerful they are, they will wipe out the three tribes at once, and those who have made meritorious service in killing thieves under the imperial edict will be enshrined after the war regardless of their origin."
As soon as Liu Xie's words fell, Cao Cao took the lead in saluting and called out: "Your Majesty is wise, the luck of the Han Dynasty, and the luck of the people."
Regardless of whether the court ministers were with Cao Cao or not, they all followed him and called out at this time.
Cao Cao was full of confidence in this, and he asked Liu Xie for instructions out of respect, and began to make arrangements.
Except for the large army defending the north, Cao Cao ordered the rest of the troops to rush to Tongguan, and ordered a large-scale recruitment. All men over the age of 16 must serve in the army unconditionally, otherwise they will be severely punished.
When Cao Cao issued a series of orders, suddenly a eunuch trotted in, kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, there is an envoy from the general outside the palace asking to see you."
"Ok?"
"Ok?"
"This general sent..."
"do not know……"
……
Hearing that Li Huiyi sent someone to come, the court ministers were confused for a moment, discussing in low voices, guessing its purpose.
Cao Cao and Liu Xie looked at each other and nodded slightly. Seeing this, Liu Xie ordered the eunuch to invite him quickly.
After waiting for about a cup of tea, Wang Sheng, led by the eunuch, came to the court hall.
Everyone is familiar with Wang Sheng. He is Li Huiyi, the little Wang who rescued him when he was in trouble in Mi County. He went to the north, which means rebirth, so he changed his name to Wang Sheng.
He had never dared to imagine seeing the emperor before, but now it happened in front of him. Wang Sheng stared at Liu Xie blankly for a moment, then remembered that he had lost his manners, and hurriedly bowed down in panic.
"Master Bo Wangsheng has met His Majesty and the Prime Minister."
Liu Xie raised his hand and said, "Get up, why did the general send you here?"
Wang Sheng stood up and said, "Return to Your Majesty, the minister came here to discuss the matter of resisting the invasion of foreign countries by order of the General."
"Oh?" There was a trace of disbelief on Liu Xie's face. It stands to reason that Li Huiyi's rule is not connected to Xiliang, so the chance of fighting Guishuang's army head-on is very small.
Although Xiliang is currently in Li Huiyi's hands, it can be surrounded by several sides, and it is a good choice to abandon this desolate place, after all, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.
As for whether Guishuang will invade from the north, pass through the old place of the Huns, and force the army to merge the state, this possibility is very small, unless the front is at a disadvantage or forced.
No matter what the purpose was, since Li Huiyi sent someone here, he was showing his attitude. Liu Xie said with a smile, "Okay, the general is indeed loyal to the country, but he is just talking nonsense and can't defeat the enemy."
Wang Sheng replied respectfully: "Return to Your Majesty, the General has ordered Shi Jiaxu, chief of staff, to lead the people to resist to the death in Xiliang..."
Hearing Liu Xie's words, Wang Sheng quickly told what happened in Xiliang, and expressed his willingness to cooperate with Liu Xie in action. As for material support, it can also be considered to a certain extent.
Such a cheap thing, Liu Xie, Cao Cao and others dare not believe it, thinking that Li Huiyi is trying to play some tricks.
Liu Xie, who was undecided, could only look at Cao Cao, meaning to let him come out and make the decision.
After receiving the instruction, Cao Cao said: "The truth and the general are old friends, and I know his character well. Tell me, what does he want?"
Seeing that he was misunderstood by Cao Cao, Wang Sheng was not happy, and his respect dropped sharply. He said flatly: "The general explained before I set off that personal gains and losses are not worth mentioning compared with the national security. .”
"I also said that the prime minister will definitely choose like him, but what I saw with my own eyes today is really chilling and painful."
Who is Cao Cao, naturally he will not be moved by a few words, and said with a deadpan expression: "Since the general is so sincere, then I wonder if there is a clear explanation?"
Since it is useless to talk, Wang Sheng can only answer in a cold official tone. "Back to the prime minister, the general can guarantee that he will not take the initiative to invade for five years. If the prime minister is short of food and the amount is not much, he can also help him with all his strength."
"As for the military, as long as you are facing Guishuang's army, the prime minister can ask for cooperation with the soldiers and horses under the general's command. If anyone refuses to obey, you can report quickly. The general will investigate. If the situation is true, the head of that person will be taken." Reply to the Prime Minister."
Not actively aggressing for five years, Li Huiyi's promise can be regarded as a reassurance for Cao Cao, so that he has no worries about the future, plus other conditions, it can be said to be a happy event from heaven.

But Cao Cao was suspicious. He didn't believe that Li Huiyi, who had gained the right to speak in Guandu, would act like this.
Cao Cao stared straight at Wang Sheng, trying to see what was in his eyes, but Wang Sheng was just an ordinary man with no brains at all, and the words just now used all the words he had learned recently.
At this time, seeing Cao Cao looking at him without saying a word, Wang Sheng greeted him with his head held high and his eyes straight, as if he wanted to believe it or not.
After a while, Cao Cao took the lead in compromise and asked, "Does the general have any requests?"
People, even if you are a cheap person, you sent it to your door for nothing, and you thought it was poisonous, so you have to put forward conditions, so that he can rest assured.
Wang Sheng complained in his heart, and said: "Since the prime minister asked the question, then I will make a request and demand the life of one person from the prime minister."
"Oh." Cao Cao narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking that Li Huiyi wanted to get rid of someone with a fake hand, thinking quickly in his mind.
After confirming the immovable personnel in his mind, Cao Cao said, "Okay, let's listen to it, as long as it is not too much, the truth will agree."
Wang Sheng didn't want to raise it so early, fearing that it would delay Li Huiyi's business, but Cao Cao insisted on doing so, and he had no choice.
Wang Sheng replied: "There is a school lieutenant under the prime minister's command, named Xu Caimi County Renshi, can he be executed?"
Wang Sheng and Gong arrived at Li Jun's camp, and because of the death of the old man, they were in a state of turmoil.
