Zhongdao hides his clumsiness, Zhuge refuses to accept it

When the army landed on the south bank, Wei Zhongdao glanced at Cao Cao, frowned slightly, withdrew his mental energy, feeling a little tired for the first time, and said to him.

"Sikong, Zhongdao's mission has been completed. I will not interfere with the rest of the matter. I am a little tired and need to rest!"

Cao Cao looked at Wei Zhongdao, who looked a little pale and nervous, and asked with concern.

"It's alright, right?"

"It's nothing serious, it's just that the mental energy was excessively exhausted. Just rest for a while!"

Wei Zhongdao still hid his clumsiness. He was actually not in serious trouble at this time, but he knew that after this incident, even if Cao Cao trusted him, he would still be wary, so as soon as he landed ashore, he excused himself from feeling unwell and handed over the military power.

Come out to appease Cao Cao.

A flash of light flashed deep in Cao Cao's eyes, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. To be honest, he just saw Wei Zhongdao commanding an army of 830,000 people, invincible and invincible in the world. At first, he was excited, but later he was only scared.

, if Wei Zhongdao has different intentions, who in the world can stop him?

Now Wei Zhongdao took the initiative to give in and handed over the military power without caring at all. Finally, Cao Cao let go of his worries, and then he felt a little ashamed. Wei Zhongdao followed him all the way to the battle, and his achievements were unparalleled. He had never had any different intentions, and

Wei Zhongdao had no children and was no threat to the Cao family.

In the winter of the 13th year of Jian'an, Cao Cao appointed Wei Zhongdao as the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy. He commanded an army of 830,000 and defeated the Sun and Liu coalition forces in Chibi.

Surrendered to Cao Cao and followed him back to Xudu. Zhou Yu was so angry that he fell directly. It was better than being defeated and captured. Jiangdong generals suffered heavy casualties. The veteran Huang Gai was killed by Xia Houyuan with a sword, and Cheng Pu was killed by Dian Wei.

They were smashed to death, Taishi Ci was captured alive by Zhao Yun, Gan Ning was beaten and tied up by Xu Chupang, Ling Tong was shot dead by Zhang Liao's hidden arrow, and other generals had their own fate, either killed in battle or captured.

Liu Bei saw that something was wrong and quickly started to escape again. He took Guan Yu to Yizhou and went to Liu Zhang.

Cao Cao conquered Jingzhou and Jiangdong in this southern expedition. He had captured most of the world, and only a few princes such as Xiliang Ma Teng, Han Sui, Hanzhong Zhang Lu, and Yizhou Liu Zhang were left. The world was shocked, and everyone was shocked.

They all understand that the general trend of the world has been set and cannot be changed.

The aristocratic families have sent their outstanding children to Xudu to serve as officials. If they don't make the bet now, it may be too late.

Ma Teng learned about Cao Cao's great victory in the southern expedition and lamented endlessly. The Han Dynasty was about to fall and there was no way to recover. He understood that it was absolutely difficult for Xiliang to resist Cao Cao's army, but he still wanted to fight stubbornly and was unwilling to surrender. He was ready

Facing the preparations for Cao Cao's army's crusade next year.

In the capital city of Xu, Zhuge Liang and Lu Su lived in Xu Shu's mansion at this time. Although they were captured, Cao Cao did not treat them harshly, but treated them with courtesy and was thirsty for talents.

Xu Shu looked at the unhappy Zhuge Liang, with a bit of helplessness in his eyes, and tried to persuade him.

"Why is Kong Ming so stubborn? The general trend of the world has been decided. Your plan to divide the world into three parts is no longer possible. Why not change the family and display your talents to add some strength to the unification of the world."

Zhuge Liang had a gloomy look in his eyes when he heard this. Every time he thought about how he had just surrendered to Liu Bei, he was captured by Wei Zhongdao, and Liu Bei fled in embarrassment. The world was about to be unified, and there was no room for him to display his talents.

"Yuan Zhi doesn't need to persuade me anymore. Loyal ministers don't care about the two masters. Cao Cao has so many talents under his command. Why do I need a defeated general!"

When Xu Shu heard this, his eyes shone with light. He could tell that Zhuge Liang was unwilling, and with a smile on his face, he said to Lu Su beside him.

"Zijing, what do you think?"

Lu Su looked free and easy, and showed no resistance to Xu Shu's persuasion. His own lord, Sun Quan, had already surrendered. What else could he say? It was just that he had been captured with Zhuge Liang and had not accepted Cao Cao's solicitation.

Sitting opposite Zhuge Liang was Zhuge Jin. This man was broad-minded, kind-hearted and honest. He was Zhuge Liang's brother and a close confidant of Sun Quan. Now he had surrendered to Cao Cao with Sun Quan and was sent as a lobbyist by Cao Cao.

Persuade Zhuge Liang.

"Kong Ming, Duke Cao's situation has been achieved and his unification of the world is irreversible. Are you willing to do nothing in your life and waste what you have learned?"

Zhuge Liang kept his head silent, but the feather fan in his hand was flapping more and more urgently. His heart was obviously not calm. He had worked hard to learn his skills. He was not yet 30 years old, and he was at the age when he was full of enthusiasm. How could he be willing to remain unknown all his life?

Just at this moment, there was a sound of brisk footsteps, and a figure walked slowly in front of everyone, followed by a white-robed general, none other than Wei Zhongdao and Zhao Yun.

"Oh! Are you still trying to persuade me?"

Wei Zhongdao's words were somewhat careless. He leaned down and looked at Zhuge Liang, who was sitting motionless. There was a bit of narrow-mindedness in his eyes. He reached out and grabbed the feather fan, flapped it twice, and said to Zhuge Liang.

He glared angrily and didn't take it seriously, and joked.

"It's winter, isn't it cold with this fan?"

Zhuge Liang looked at that cynical expression, and for some reason, his anger kept rising in his heart. He raised his head and glared at Wei Zhongdao, and said bitterly.

"What does it have to do with you?"

Wei Zhongdao sat in the seat where Zhuge Jin had just been, sitting across from Zhuge Liang, with a slight smile on his lips as he teased.

"You have a bad temper. It seems that you are not convinced and resentful about losing to me!"

Zhuge Liang's eyes sparkled, his expression straightened, he looked at Wei Zhongdao and said.

"Although we are not as skilled as others, we are unwilling to give in. If you and I each lead a large army to fight, I may not be defeated by you!"

Zhuge Liang felt a little aggrieved when he thought that he had thrown himself into a trap because of borrowing arrows from a straw boat and was captured by Wei Zhongdao before he could use his skills.

"In that case, why don't you and I talk about it? If I win, you will become an official. If you win, I will report it to the prime minister and never let anyone come to persuade me again. What do you think?"

Cao Cao returned to the court in triumph, his power greatly increased, he abolished the three princes, restored the prime minister system, and appointed himself Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, taking charge of the court, and no one in the civil and military officials opposed it.

Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed with ejaculation, and he nodded in response.

"Okay, I'll have a hand-to-hand talk with you and see if we win!"

"If I win, no one will be allowed to bother me anymore!"

"a man of his words!"

Xu Shu ordered people to present the chessboard, Zhuge Liang held the white, and Wei Zhongdao held the black. The two looked at each other, their eyes sparkled, and their mental power surged crazily, improving their thinking.

Wei Zhongdao moved first with black, and moved the piece to Tianyuan. Zhuge Liang followed closely behind, placing the piece without thinking. Wei Zhongdao immediately moved the piece, and you came and I went back and forth without stopping for a moment.

Obviously, when two people play chess without giving each other any time to think, they are competing to see who has stronger mental power, faster thinking, higher wisdom, and farther calculations.
