Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 724 Lord of Central Plains
Cao Cao and Liu Qi made an agreement at Hulao Pass.

Since that night.

Early the next morning.

Neither Cao Cao nor Liu Qi continued to stay at Hulao Pass, but directly led the crowd away, away from Hulao Pass.

After all, everything has been decided, so there is no reason to stay.

Both parties got the results they wanted, and they are still very satisfied. Although it is a transaction, there is no problem, it is just a choice made by each of them.

And the decisions made by the two will also affect the final direction of the Central Plains, that's all.

Cao Cao got what he wanted, so he led Xu Chu, Cao Ren, and more than a hundred riders, and rushed back in the direction of Bingzhou.

But Liu Qi rushed back to Nanyang with a group of soldiers and horses.

The two sides gradually moved away from each other in opposite directions.

As Cao Cao said, the day of meeting may never happen again, but there may be again, the world is impermanent, and what will happen at that time is unknown.

Most important now.

That is what needs to be dealt with now, and the immediate problem is the first thing to consider.

As for later.

It depends on how things develop, and it cannot be decided now.

Later things will be discussed later.

Of course, I still did some things in advance to prevent them. These are all well-known things, and there is no need to open them up.

Cao Cao and Liu Qi are both aware of each other's character, just as there is a saying: the one who knows oneself best is not oneself, but the opponent!

It is also clear that the other party will not contradict what it says, and what needs to be considered is only the other party's subordinates.

But this kind of thing, with the suppression of two people, will not happen by accident, and this may be the best ending.

……

After Liu Qi returned to Nanyang and arranged some things, he left from Nanyang and rushed back to Chengdu, but the soldiers and horses who stayed on the border between Nanyang and Jizhou did not evacuate, but stayed where they were.

As if waiting for something!
The state of Wu was annexed by the state of Han, and the state of Wei is still busy driving away the Xiongnu and Karasuma in Bingzhou and Youzhou.

As a result, the land of the Central Plains settled down, and there was no more war, it was very peaceful.

What puzzled the people of Wei State was that the soldiers and horses guarding the various cities gradually withdrew from the cities, even if they did not evacuate, they also left the army and became a common people.

Moreover, unexpected things happened in Chang'an City.

That is, the civil and military officials of the Wei State who stayed in Chang'an began to mobilize everywhere, sort out all the supplies, and transport them out in carts. In the palace, Cao Cao's family members, etc., were all gathered by the civil and military ministers. Under the escort of the soldiers, he left Chang'an and headed north.

But this doubt did not last long.

Because when the Wei State was in some turmoil, the Han State also took action.

The two Han armies stationed in Nanyang and on the border of Jizhou no longer continued to stand still, but entered the territory of Wei State under the leadership of various Han generals.

There is no trace of obstruction, there is no trace of obstruction, little by little, it takes over the vacated cities of Wei State, and takes over all the affairs.

There is no swordsman meeting, hand-to-hand combat.

Both sides seemed to agree by default.

The Han army will wait until the soldiers and horses in the city of Wei Guozhong leave for a day, and then continue to receive the city.

And the Wei army seemed to have received the order, and gradually withdrew from the city, giving the city to the Han army without any resistance.

Cao Cao made a decision, knowing that not everyone would leave with him, and he didn't force it. Those who don't want to leave can stay, become common people, or switch to the Han army, which is beyond his decision.

But there are still most people who are willing to follow.

But now both the Xiongnu and Karasuma have been driven to the border of the two states by his army, and they will soon be able to drive them out.

Then things can start, let the soldiers and horses evacuate, and finally meet again.

Wei Guo's actions, as well as Han Guo's actions, let the people of the Central Plains understand what happened.

The situation is very obvious.

However, this is the decision of the two high-level officials, and it has nothing to do with them. Maybe it has something to do with it, but it's not that big of a deal.

After all, no matter what, how should they live, or how should they live.

Even if they have ideas, they don't have any effect, and it's not them who make the decisions.

However, one can be thankful that life will be much more peaceful in the future, at least there will be no more wars in the Central Plains, so they don't have to continue to worry.

And when the soldiers and horses of Wei State withdrew from the city and the Han army took over the city of Wei State.

When Liu Qi returned to Chengdu, he began to mobilize food and grass. After all, he agreed to Cao Cao's request, and now Cao Cao has followed the conditions, so he still needs to stick to his promise.

A team of soldiers and horses was dispatched to transport 50 dans of grain and grass towards Yanmen Pass, preparing to hand over the grain and grass at Yanmen Pass.

This time, he didn't go there in person. After all, Zhao Yun and others are still leading the army to take over Wei's city. He only needs to hand over the matter to Zhao Yun and others, and they can solve it perfectly.

But Liu Qi is sitting in Chengdu.

Now that after receiving Wei's territory, the Central Plains will be under his control, so there will be many things that need to be dealt with.

Although Cao Cao withdrew from the Central Plains, he still had a certain threat, just like Liu Bei who fled to the land of Sanhan.

However, once you leave, it will not be so easy to get a place in his hands.

Of course, it is possible to take advantage of the current opportunity to remove Wei Guo and avoid future troubles forever, but in that case, even if there is enough confidence, it will have a great loss, which is not conducive to the development of the Central Plains.

And Cao Cao evacuated on his own, only needing to pay some food and grass, and it didn't affect the operation of the Central Plains, so why bother with things.

Wouldn't it be better to settle peacefully?
most importantly.

That was still Liu Qi's idea. If he fights to the death with Wei Jun, he will eventually get rid of Wei State, and he will suffer heavy losses. If he wants to continue with his own ideas, it will be difficult.

Although it can be developed and continued, how many years does it take to recover, and how many years does life have?
such a result.

Liu Qi is still very satisfied, no matter what, now may be the best result.

According to the current situation in the Central Plains, what he wants to do will not take long to start.

The decision of Cao Cao and Liu Qi at Hulao Pass.

The fate of the Central Plains has already been decided, and the turbulent Central Plains, which has been conquering each other since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, is completely unified.

All under the rule of Liu Qi's Han Dynasty!
Liu Qi also became the Lord of the Central Plains!
