The Assassin Empire of the Three Kingdoms

The so-called transaction is to be established on the basis of equality.The status of the two parties is equal, and the transaction will naturally be fair.But now the status of Long Fei and Cao Cao has undergone a 180-degree change.In the past, Cao Cao begged Long Fei, but now it's just the opposite.

Cao Cao chuckled, "Deal? I'm afraid the son-in-law is the best at doing business in the world? Let's talk about it first!"

With a wave of Long Fei's hand, a dozen soldiers carried five or six large boxes into the lobby, and opened them one by one in front of everyone.Immediately, the whole room was glittering with golden light, dazzling its brilliance.Everyone's eyes were straightened, there were six boxes of jewels, and it could be distinguished from the brilliance that any one of them was a priceless treasure.Long Fei was bleeding a lot this time, and he did not hesitate to spend all his money in order to gain a relationship with Cao Cao.These things were all obtained from Dong Zhuo back then, and all of them are treasures in the palace.

Cao Cao said: "Tell me! What do you expect from such a generous gift? My son-in-law never trades at a loss!"

"Hehe!" Long Fei smiled: "This is just one, and second, if my father-in-law can agree to one thing, I will immediately report his father-in-law's merits to His Majesty after I go back, and ask for the position of general for my father-in-law. Third, It can also allow the second and fourth sisters to be named empresses and imperial concubines!"

First he gave generous gifts, then he was entrusted with an official position, and finally he came with a famous lure. Long Fei could be regarded as giving Cao Cao all the good things in the world.But Cao Cao knew that until now Long Fei hadn't said a word about his request.This not only makes everyone feel that it is not a good thing.

Cheng Yu waved his hand: "General Long is so generous, I don't know what you want?"

Long Fei glanced at Cao Cao: "It's not a big deal, I just want to join forces with my father-in-law to attack Jiangdong, and half of the land will be gained, no! My father-in-law will take [-]%, and I only need Chai Sang!"

"Hahaha..." Cao Cao laughed loudly: "Is the son-in-law afraid? This is not the style of the son-in-law. The son-in-law has 20 elite soldiers in his hand. If he wants to wipe out Jiangdong without any effort, he is so humble now. The old man always feels that something is wrong!"

"Father-in-law is worrying too much. I don't have any unreasonable thoughts. Jingzhou has just been pacified, so I don't want any more disturbances." Without waiting for Cao Cao to ask back, Long Fei hurriedly said: "In fact, doing so is also good for father-in-law. The pacification of Jiangdong will bring peace to the south. Father-in-law can do his best. To the west, if the army of my father-in-law arrives outside the city of Jingzhou, my son-in-law will definitely give his hands of Jingzhou to his father-in-law, and he will not trouble his father-in-law."

"Is this true?" Cao Cao was quite moved by Long Fei's statement.

Cheng Yu said with a smile: "Since this is the case, why wait until the future? Controlling Jingzhou and going down the river can wipe out Jiangdong in one fell swoop. Is there any reason why it is difficult first and then easy?"

Long Fei shook his head: "Mr. Cheng is right, but sir, don't forget that my father-in-law doesn't have a navy, how can the natural dangers of the Yangtze River be overcome, we have to join forces, my father-in-law sends out cavalry, and we send out a navy, in order to be safe."

Cao Cao looked at Long Fei: "I know about this matter, my son-in-law has been exhausted all the way, go back to the post to rest first, and give my son-in-law an answer tomorrow, what does my son-in-law think?"

Long Fei and the others left, wondering what Cao Cao's attitude would be as they walked.Long Fei very much hoped that Cao Cao would agree, so that Jingzhou could be given more time, if Cao Cao's army came to Jingzhou at this time.However, the soldiers were not trained, and the food and grass were not prepared for the battle with Cao Cao. It was necessary to suffer heavy casualties, and there was even the danger of the entire army being wiped out.

Long Fei asked Guo Jia: "Feng Xiao, Cao Cao's performance today, do you think he will agree to our conditions?"

Guo Jia shook his head slightly: "Cao Cao is one of the few heroes in the world. I'm afraid he has already seen through this idea of ​​the lord. We can't bet everything on Cao Cao, but we can send someone back to Xiangyang overnight and let Jia Xu do a good job." Be prepared, especially Wenpin in Wancheng must pay more attention to guard against Cao Cao's sudden attack."

Long Fei nodded, and asked Chen Dao to send someone to do it immediately.Dian Wei shook his head and sighed: "There are so many good things, Cao Cao didn't even buy one. It's better not to give him anything. If he dares to call, he should try the iron halberd in Grandpa's hand first."

It was already dark when we got back to the post house, so we had dinner.Long Fei still felt uneasy, so he sent Meng Shuo out to inquire about the news.Meng Shuo came back soon, and according to the detailed report, Cao Cao was still discussing this matter with Cheng Yu and others.Long Fei nodded: "Cao Cao is a bit undecided, this effect is not bad."

However, Guo Jia said: "This is Cao Cao's brilliance. The reason why he didn't make a decision is to see the reactions of his subordinates. In fact, Cao Cao has already made a decision in his heart. Cao Cao is a traitor, not Yuan Shao's kind of planner The one who breaks."

Everyone was at a loss, and it was quite difficult to make a move.For so many years, Long Fei has never encountered such a situation.Lying on the couch, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.Long Fei got up and put on his clothes. Just as he walked out of the door, he saw Dian Wei and Xu Chu standing outside the door.Hearing the sound of the door, the two turned their heads, and Dian Wei smiled: "Feng Xiao guessed that you were going to run out at night, let the two of us watch you, Feng Xiao said that the most important thing now is to wait, no matter what Cao Cao chooses , the lord must show generosity."

"Hey!" Long Fei sighed and closed the door again.

On the second day, Jiang Ji came to invite Long Fei, saying that Cao Cao hosted a banquet to welcome Long Fei.Long Fei hurriedly packed his luggage and took everyone to Cao Cao's mansion.Entering the lobby, one can see at a glance that besides Cao Cao and several of his counselors, there is actually an unfamiliar scribe.Seeing Long Fei come in, Cao Cao hurriedly greeted him: "Come on, let me introduce you. This is Jiangdong Bulu, a famous talent. Mr. Bu, you should recognize General Long, right?"

People from Jiangdong?Long Fei felt strange in his heart.How could Sun Quan send someone here? Could it be that his purpose is the same as his own.Bu Lu gave a big gift to Long Fei, and the two sat down respectively.Cao Cao half-jokingly and half-seriously said: "It's really interesting that the two of you have such an alliance. You have come to my place one after another, and they all want to deal with each other with my alliance. Since everyone is here, you might as well explain your words!"

Bu Lu and Long Fei looked at each other, somewhat embarrassed.Cao Cao laughed loudly: "Both of you have stated your reasons, and I think they are all reasonable. I am still not sure about paying attention, so I had to sit down and discuss with the three parties!" Cao Cao glanced at Long Fei: "My original intention was to Let Your Majesty return the capital to Luoyang, Your Majesty has been living abroad for a long time, I have sent people to Luoyang to rebuild the palace, and it will be completed within a year or so? My big man can no longer be turbulent."

Bulu hurriedly said: "That's a very good idea! Don't worry, General Cao, my lord will definitely support me!"

Long Fei said angrily: "General Sun Quan is mere An Han, he has no place to speak here!" Turning his face to look at Cao Cao: "To tell you the truth, my father-in-law, I also have the same idea. If my father-in-law says it today, then I will do it according to my father-in-law. , when the construction of the Luoyang Palace is completed, I will send His Majesty back to Luoyang."

Cao Cao laughed loudly: "In that case, now I will give you a clear answer. As long as your son-in-law sends His Majesty back to Luoyang, our alliance will naturally come into being; Mr. Bu, as long as you can persuade Sun Quan to give up Hefei, our relationship will be established." The alliance between them is formed in the same way! Please go back, both of you! If you can confirm it as soon as possible, if you are not sure, send a letter to your respective lords immediately. My army is ready. Listen to how mighty and majestic the shouts outside are?"

After returning, Guo Jia and others followed Long Fei into the room.Guo Jiadao: "My lord, Cao Cao's posture seems to be against us. My lord should send someone to inform Jia Xu, Li Ru and others to enter the state of war and tell Wenpin that the war is coming!"

"Fengxiao means..."

Guo Jia nodded: "Cao Cao is going to lead his army southward. We Wancheng is advancing, and the emperor is staying at Jiaxia. Cao Cao's first target is to bear the brunt. Victory or defeat depends on one action. If Wancheng can be defended, Then Cao Cao should know the difficulty and retreat, if he can't hold it, Cao Jun will definitely march south with all his strength, and Jingzhou is in danger!"

"Then what are you waiting for here! Hurry up and go back?" Dian Wei shouted.

Long Fei shook his head: "Sun Quan's attitude is unclear. If Cao Cao and Sun Quan jointly attack from the north and the south, it will be even more unfavorable to us!"

"My lord, you can rest assured!" The seriousness on Guo Jia's face slowly dissipated: "Cao Cao annexed the four prefectures of Hebei, he has hundreds of thousands of soldiers under his command, and has become the world's largest prince, so he will not release this little Sun Quan In my eyes, according to Cao Cao's thinking, I want to destroy Jingzhou first and then go down the river to completely wipe out Jiangdong!"

"The appetite is not small, be careful to break his front teeth!" Meng Shuo snorted coldly.

For several days, Cao Cao didn't show up. Long Fei begged to see him many times, but Cao Cao never let him in.At noon of this day, Long Fei was bored in the house, and walked to the market in Yecheng, wandering aimlessly.Just after turning a small alley, a black figure suddenly appeared in front of Long Fei.This person was wearing a black hat and a gown, with a long cloth covering his face. He was not tall and had an ugly voice.

Without thinking too much, Long Fei followed that person into the restaurant.We found a secluded place to drink with each other.Before Long Fei could speak, the man took off his face covering.It was none other than Fengchu Pangtong.Several diners nearby saw Pang Tong's appearance, and many of them dropped their chopsticks and went out immediately.The shopkeeper sighed softly, but dared not say anything.

Long Fei chuckled: "Brother Shi Yuan is really fast, he even arrived in Yecheng in a short time, did he come to ask Cao Cao for an official?"

Pang Tong took a deep breath and made up his mind: "I'm here on a special trip to find the general! Cao Cao has ordered General Xia Houyuan to lead an army of [-] from Yanzhou to attack Wancheng. The vanguard generals Xia Houdun and Li Dian have already passed Wuping. It will arrive in Yingchuan in less than three days!"

Long Fei clasped his fists at Pang Tongtong: "I already know about this matter, but I would like to thank Brother Shi Yuan for the special notice."

Pang Tong shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You know this, but there is one more thing you don't know? Cao Cao has joined forces with Liu Zhang in Yizhou and Sun Quan in Jiangdong to attack you at the same time. Liu Zhang's army has passed Fuling, and Sun Quan's Cheng Pu army has passed When we reach Lujiang, as long as Cao Cao makes a move, the two of them will attack at the same time."
