, I am just his friend, and there is no need for friends to push themselves to that point... Do you know that when he issued the notice and said, "Don't say it is unforeseen," he asked the messenger to send it to me at the same time.

A letter?"

"oh?"

"I opened the letter, but there was only one sentence." Cao Cao's tone suddenly felt strange. "What do you mean?"

"..."

"He said that now that he is the Duke of the country, he can use some extraordinary rituals, so he asked me to sacrifice the Duke of Qiao with the Tailao ceremony for him!" Cao Cao's tone was still weird.

Liu Bei looked at the setting sun and was slightly startled, as if he had thought of something: "I once heard about Duke Qiao's past and knew that he valued both Duke Yan and Brother Meng De at the same time, but he still valued Brother Meng De. Many people at that time thought that

It is rare for Duke Qiao to make a mistake, but Duke Yan’s move is just a tactic to ridicule and provoke the general!"

"It's a strategy to provoke the general, but it's irritating my heart!" Cao Cao finally changed his expression. "Gongsun Wenqi has known for a long time that Duke Qiao has great hopes for me! Maybe he already knew that Duke Qiao had an appointment with me before his death.

When I become successful and famous, I will be too strong to eat... But he humiliates me like this, how can I not fight?! Otherwise? Do you want me to switch sides, surrender to him, and then become a servant and stand in front of the bridge cemetery?

, are you going to sit back and watch him take away my sacrificial appointment?!"

"In the final analysis, Brother Meng De has not yet surrendered to Duke Yan!" Liu Bei finally smiled slightly. "Since ancient times, when people are unjust, they will complain when they are unjust. This strategy of provoking generals is really a fatal blow! It seems that my brother also wants to complete his work in

One battle..."

"He has always been like this!" Cao Cao responded with a sneer. "Seize the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, use clever strategies to force the opponent to fight, and then kill him with his sharp blade that is the best in the world... But I don't know that this is also

It's his flaw! The two blades intersect, he is the treasured sword, and I am the broken blade. However, the treasured sword can kill people, and the broken blade can also move forward to kill people! It is precisely in this kind of battle that we need to find three chances of victory.

Then fight it out!"

Liu Bei calmed down slightly.

"Both of you and I have expressed our determination, is this all Xuande can say?" Cao Cao continued to ask.

"Where is the battlefield?" Liu Bei asked, reining in his horse and facing the sunset.

"I intend to go north to Chenliu and go to Guandu to face Hebei." Cao Cao responded simply.

"In this case, I can send out 120,000 people!" Liu Bei said without changing his expression. "I will also do my best to provide food, grass and soldiers... More than 10,000 Xuzhou navy troops went north to fight against Qingzhou navy army. I didn't say much, except for

In addition, I will also ask Zhou Gongjin to bring 10,000 auxiliary troops to help defend the north of Xuzhou, and then appoint Lu Zijing as the chief governor and Liu Ziyang as the deputy governor, with a hundred thousand troops from the two Huaihe Rivers and a total of 30,000 soldiers.

Thirty thousand auxiliary troops and 40,000 civilians will go north to obey Brother Meng De!"

"You won't come?"

"I won't go... First of all, I still don't want to break my oath; secondly, if I go north, who will take priority when the soldiers join forces? Lu Zijing is shrewd in big things and generous in small things, which is exactly what you want to do."

"Shan!" Cao Cao finally took a long breath. "I know Xuande will live up to me... But, what did you say to Yide? Can he come?"

"How is that possible?" Liu Bei finally sighed. "Zhu Fu surrendered to me last month. When he came, I had already appointed Yide as the governor of Yuzhang and Zibu as the governor of Danyang... I will sit in Runan and arrange logistics for you. If

If things fail, I will naturally follow them to Jiangnan!"

"If you fail, what if you keep the two counties in Jiangnan?" Cao Cao dismissed it.

"Let's wait and see!" Liu Bei paused slightly, but still had no explanation. "Besides, this battle is of great importance. I have a plan that may enable Liu Biao to send all his troops!"

"What's the plan?" Cao Cao was not only unhappy when he heard this, but became wary.

"Give him Nanyang!" Liu Bei said calmly. "Nanyang belongs to Jingzhou, and it is in front of Liu Jingsheng. If he can benefit from Nanyang and have the emperor and cover in front of him, he will definitely be willing to send troops... By then, 300,000

People, these are definitely not false words!”

Cao Cao sneered.

"I haven't finished yet. Nanyang is rich and has a large population. We can't let Brother Meng De give it up in vain, so I'm willing to give Penan to you!" Liu Beifu said again, but he couldn't help but feel sad. "Once it's decided, it can be done.

Delivery. In addition, you can also ask the emperor to appoint me as the shepherd of Yangzhou, and the shepherd of Yuzhou will be given to me. In this case, if this battle can be won, then Runan can also be justified in handing over to Brother Meng De... What?"

Cao Cao was about to speak but stopped.

"Is this an honor?" Liu Bei asked again.

"Jia Gu Ran Jia..." Cao Cao laughed for a moment. "If Xuande hadn't been in front, I almost wanted to jump on the horse and shout long live! But Xuande is so heroic and easily sent such a large county, just to bridge the differences in the alliance, which reassures me

Fighting with all my strength has made me fear Nian Yi just like when we made the alliance back then!"

"Be afraid of Duke Yan of Hebei!" Liu Bei said quietly, but finally turned around for the first time. "You have said that if this battle is lost, at least the Huaihe River will not be protected. It is impossible to say that Jiangbei will not be protected... It's just a matter of time.

There is only one and a half counties in Yuzhou, so what is there to be reluctant to part with?"

After saying that, he led the crowd to beat the horse and drove away. As the sun set in the west and gradually dimmed, Cao Mengde stood alone on the embankment. After some calculations in his mind, he finally couldn't help but jump on his horse. Before Cao Ren and others

Stunned, he drew his sword and pointed north, shouting "Long live!"

I am the dividing line that likes to cheer for myself

"Now, I am fortunate to have General Zuo, General Annan, General Polu, and General Huwei Zhong. I have been ordered by the Emperor to control 700,000 people on horseback and water. I will hunt with you in the old land of Baima... As for the sacrifice of Qiao Gong, I
