Chapter 260 Cao Cao's Careful Thoughts

To be honest, these are just a part of Liu Feng's many plans, and even Liu Feng doesn't think this is a major decision.

"No one is high or low, and this king still believes that man will conquer the sky, and princes and generals are better off!" Finally, Liu Feng shouted, and then he planted the sword in his hand heavily on the ground, then turned his head and left silently.

That's right, this is Liu Feng's promise, and this is what makes him domineering. A double baptism of culture and thought quietly kicked off from this moment.

And this incident that almost swept the entire Luoyang was resolved with Liu Feng's few words.

But Liu Feng still kept his promise very much. As expected, on the second day, Liu Feng released a statement that caused an uproar in the world.

After writing thousands of words eloquently, the first person to receive the news was Cao Cao from Qingzhou. After carefully interpreting the content of Liu Feng's letter, this man also remained silent for a whole night.

For a long time, this hero who was supposed to dominate the Central Plains, but was so suppressed by Liu Feng that he couldn't even breathe, just left a silent sentence: "This son may be difficult to compete with him!"

But from the moment Cao Cao left Luoyang, he and Liu Feng no longer had an ally relationship. When they meet again in the future, it may be difficult to say whether they are enemies or friends.

He doesn't know whether Liu Feng is interested in Qingzhou, but Cao Cao understands that his next plan is to take Xuzhou quickly.

So what about after taking Xuzhou?It is impossible for Cao Cao to turn his head and kill Liu Yan, his loyal younger brother, in a really hot head.

At that time, even now he had already envisioned the situation.

Even if Liu Feng doesn't take the initiative to attack him, there will inevitably be a war between him and Liu Feng.

This is an inevitable result, but these days, especially after seeing the strength of Liu Feng's army, Cao Cao couldn't help asking himself, even Dong Zhuo can't beat Liu Feng, can he compete with him?
But there is another reason why a strong man is called a strong man, that is, no matter what, he can quickly adjust his mentality.

If you can fight well, but you can't, you won't know until you fight!
So another plan was also put on the process by Cao Cao in full swing.

One month later, in his hometown of Xu County, Cao Cao supported Liu Wei, the original Marquis of Runan, as the emperor, and the country was named Wei.

This made the world, which had been trapped in a short period of peaceful days, glow with a lively look again.

Liu Wei, Marquis of Runan, was once again valued by people all over the world. At first, many people questioned the identity of Liu Wei, a clan member of the Han family who was not very famous in terms of reputation or title.

However, the Liu family tree of the Han Dynasty published by Cao Cao completely blocked his mouth.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Liu Wei is just a cover, and it is Cao Cao who is really in charge behind the scenes.

It can be said that instead of Liu Wei proclaiming emperor, it is better to say that Cao Cao proclaimed emperor!Just in name, Cao Cao did not dare to do that kind of arrogance.

The princes of the world have mixed opinions on this matter.

When Liu Wei proclaimed himself emperor, he also ordered Cao Cao to be the prime minister of the Great Wei, Liu Feng to be the one-word side-by-side king, Liu Yan to be the king of Shouchun, and the general of Pingnan.

As for the others, they did not receive any canonization. Even Dong Zhuo, who was depressed in Chang'an at the moment, received a letter written by Emperor Liu Wei himself.

This made Dong Zhuo very angry, tore up the call to action on the spot, and became furious. If there was no Liu Feng in the middle, Dong Zhuo would have liked to send troops to attack Cao Cao on the spot.

Liu Yan, who was in cahoots with Cao Cao, naturally couldn't have any opinions, so he readily accepted the edict, and found an auspicious day to start the ceremony of conferring the king in Shouchun.

Since Cao Cao had really controlled this degree this time, he was not blinded by power for a while, but only sealed himself as a prime minister.

In fact, it's not that Cao Cao has never thought about it, and he himself will be a prince.

But when he brought up his idea, Cheng Yu, who was upright under him, quickly poured cold water on him.

In fact, this kind of thing is just to confuse the people. Anyone with a real vision can see that the actual power of the Great Wei regime is still Liu Feng.

In addition, having said that, Liu Feng was the man who had been appointed King of Qin by the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty before, and Liu Yan was more or less a relative of the Han Dynasty.

But he himself, Cao Cao, doesn't have any prominent reputation, nor does he have any blessings of military exploits, so it is naturally impossible to compare with the two of them.

So Cao Cao hesitated for a long time in the end, and chose to calm down temporarily. He really didn't need to provoke the anger of the whole world for a little fame. After all, he didn't want to make himself a target of public criticism.

The reason why Cao Cao's operation did not cause an uproar in an instant this time is very simple. On the one hand, Cao Cao did not do anything arrogant.

The second aspect is that Liu Wei is indeed a Han family clan, and now the whole world, because of Liu Xie's death, they have lost their nominal co-lord.

Therefore, Liu Wei's self-proclaimed emperor did not cause much repercussions among the people. After all, Cao Cao's jurisdiction and influence were limited, so these princes were somewhat helpless about it.

On the one hand, the time when Cao Cao supported Liu Wei as emperor was too ingenious. After Liu Xie died, all the princes began to develop dullly, thinking that one day they would compete in the Central Plains.

But just when Liu Feng announced that he would never proclaim himself emperor, Cao Cao supported Liu Wei in Xuchang.

This timing can be said to be very ingeniously grasped, and some people who didn't know even thought that Cao Cao had hooked up with Liu Feng.

But even so, Sun Jian, Dong Zhuo, Liu Bei, Tao Qian and other major princes also issued articles accusing Cao Cao of this behavior.

On the one hand, they really didn't get any piece of the cake, not even the nominal reward.

On the other hand, they should really stand up to the surface in time, even if they all understand that it is impossible for them to send troops to attack Cao Cao now.

But in fact, this is just some of the lip service of these great princes that is not even considered a competition.

Cao Cao didn't even worry about what they could do to him. In fact, he only cared about one person's thoughts in his heart.

What this person means is related to whether he can succeed in this matter, and whether he can gain a wave of contacts and reputation through Liu Wei, the emperor's name.

Even Cao Cao did not hesitate to send out a one-word side-by-side king to make his status higher for him!

Needless to say, this person is none other than Liu Feng who has been in the limelight recently!
