People in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Hu and Han respected together

Xingping three years, autumn and winter time!
In today's world, there are still constant disputes. In the land of Jianghuai, Liu Bei and Cao Cao have led their troops into Jiujiang and met in Shouchun.

They are obviously two life-and-death enemies with deep hatred, but when they met this time, unexpectedly, they did not sneer and sarcastic, and swords and soldiers faced each other. Instead, they cooperated tacitly to attack Shouchun.

Liu Bei camp!

Liu Bei's expression was not very good, he sighed, then looked around and said:

"Under Cao Cao's command, the soldiers are strong and powerful. Now Yuan Shu can be destroyed with a snap of his fingers, but after Yuan Shu is destroyed, in order to fight for the territory left by Yuan Shu, it is inevitable to have a conflict with him. What is your best strategy?"

Guan Yu was imposing, and when he heard this, he narrowed his eyes and said:

"Brother, don't worry, my Xuzhou soldiers have also been well-trained. If there is a conflict, we may not lose to Cao Cao. I am willing to be the vanguard and use my body as a sword to defeat the enemy!"

Zhang Fei also patted his chest, and said loudly firmly:
"Second brother is right, big brother don't panic, we are no longer comparable to what we used to be, and Cao Cao is not invincible in every battle, so be afraid!"

Liu Bei nodded with a smile. The two younger brothers also had good intentions, but they were still very worried, because besides Cao Cao, there was also Li Yao who had already occupied Jizhou, and this was the root cause of his frowning.

He didn't have much contact with Li Yao, so he heard more about Li Yao's affairs. Cao Cao is not invincible, but Li Yao is really invincible.

Until now, he had never heard of when Li Yao had lost a battle, hijacked the emperor, occupied the imperial court, and won every battle against the point of view of his soldiers.

It's a pity that such a hero is a traitor. If he can be loyal to himself and help the Han Dynasty, it will be just around the corner.

At this time, it was Chen Gong who stood up and pointed out the reason straight to the point:
"The situation in the world is strange and changeable. Li Yao, who is in the pass now, took Jizhou as soon as he left the pass. This person is not only the enemy of Cao thief, but also the enemy of Duke Ming, and even all the princes of the Guandong. The enemy of our country, he is rushing to destroy all of us..."

"Duke Ming, I don't want us to lose out in the fight with Thief Cao, and then be taken advantage of by Li Yao. If he takes control of the Central Plains, we will never be able to contain it!"

Under Liu Bei's command, the other Xuzhou scholars must be smart if they are smart, but when it comes to the situation in the world, Chen Gong knows better. After all, Xuzhou is a peaceful corner, and Yanzhou is well-connected.

Liu Bei's heart moved, and he quickly asked:
"Gongtai, what's a good plan, tell me quickly!"

After Chen Gong was silent for a long time, he finally said a compromise:
"The most precious thing about Yuan Shu today is his head, and the second is this Jiujiang County. His head can be exchanged for a prince. Displaced, the place is deserted, there is no rooster crowing for ten miles, and no dog barking for a hundred miles..."

"It's better to choose one from Duke Ming and that thief Cao. After this matter is over, we can find a way to contact Liu Biao. The two sides will work together to pinch Cao thief, so as to avoid both sides being hurt, and Li Yao will take advantage of it!"

When Liu Bei heard this, he gradually made a decision in his heart, and a real smile appeared on his face:
"Haha... Gongtai's words are justified. This Yuan Shu is also a hero among men. He came from a noble family. The Han Dynasty treated him well, but he pretended to be emperor. I will definitely capture and kill him this time. If you still want to be decent and cut yourself off, then give him face, if he doesn't want face and resist to the death, then help him face!"

That's right, the decision Liu Bei made was to want Yuan Shu to be the leader. Liu Bei's surname was Liu, and he was a relative of the Han family, so he should be named king.

Naturally, everyone has no opinion on this, but Cao Cao's consent is needed.

Cao Cao camp!

Cao Cao looked at the letter sent by Liu Bei. Yuan Shu and Jiujiang should choose one of them. He couldn't afford to argue. He fell into deep thought, then called all the people under his command, and after briefly explaining what happened, he said directly:

"Now that Li Yao occupies Jizhou, he is eyeing us. Although I also hate Liu Bei very much, but at this moment, if I can't afford to argue, I can't afford to argue..."

"Yuan Shu is also ruthless. He looted all the people around Shouchun, forcing us to transport food from the rear. After this battle is over, all the food stored will be consumed!"

At this time, Guo Jia, the military adviser offering wine, said:

"Duke Ming is right. It's just that Duke Ming wants Yuan Shu or Jiujiang?"

Cao Cao was silent for a moment, no one knew what he was thinking, but then he laughed and said:

"My surname is not Liu, how can I be called king? Liu Bei's surname is Liu, so Yuan Shu should leave it to him. I want Jiujiang. Although Yuan Shu ruined it badly, it is suitable for farming. Only when there is food, there are people. Only when there are people. With soldiers, only with soldiers can we help the Han Dynasty and save the world!"

Guo Jia's eyes were full of approval, he may not be able to live to the end if he is called the king first, he must be the king who lives to the end, and then said:
"Duke Ming has a big heart. The position of prince was originally the bait released by Li Yao. Whoever eats this bait will definitely become the target of public criticism..."

"Now that Yuan Shu has become a trapped beast, Duke Ming, it is time to intensify the siege. If Shouchun cannot be breached before the snow falls, this trapped beast, Yuan Shu, will be given a chance to get out of the cage!"

Cao Cao nodded when he heard the words, then looked to the left and right, with a serious face, and said in a deep voice:

"Cao Hong, Cao Ren, Yu Jin, Le Jin, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, you understand, you all know what to do!"

At this time, all the people on the left and right responded loudly:

"Follow the order!"

Cao Cao naturally trusted these generals under his command, and said:

"Yuan Shu is no longer in the limelight, and the next thing to deal with is Erliu. To deal with Erliu under the threat of Li Yao, does Feng Xiao have a good plan in mind?"

Guo Jia nodded and said:

"Although Liu Bei is military, his strategy is not as good as Ming Gong's, but he has great ambitions, can fight, and dares to fight. On the contrary, Liu Biao is just a dog who only guards the household. He only wants to guard Jingzhou..."

"Now there is Li Yao in the north, if you want to quickly wipe out the second Liu, you need to take some risks. Attack Liu Biao first, lure Liu Bei to attack, and then return the main force to help, and wipe out Liu Bei's army in the future with a thunderous force. Liu Biao has no ambitions. It would be good to defend Jingzhou, how dare you attack Duke Ming..."

"Just take advantage of this opportunity to invade Xuzhou in one fell swoop and seize all of Liu Bei's territory, and then depending on the situation, if Li Yao intends to go south, then temporarily hibernate. If Li Yao can't go south, then he will use all his strength to attack Liu Biao. There is a half probability that he will surrender, and there is a half probability that he will fight to the death, but at that time, he will no longer be Minggong's opponent!"

Cao Cao was overjoyed after hearing this, he naturally understood the risks involved, but he didn't even dare to take this risk, so what qualifications did he have to go against Li Yao:

"I have Fengxiao, so why be afraid of Erliu, why be afraid of Li Yao!"
