During the period when Cao Cao and Liu Zhe were confronting each other in Tongguan, Sun Ce thought of sending troops to attack Xu Du and rescue Emperor Xian, but because the risk was too great, he finally gave up.

Now it seems that that time is the best time. When Sun Ce thinks about it now, he feels extremely regretful.

Zhou Yu smiled and comforted: "Bofu doesn't have to regret it. The risk of attacking Xudu is too high, and the loss is not worth it. If you own Yangzhou and operate it slowly, you may not lose to Liu Zhe and Cao Cao."

“That’s right.”

After hearing this, Sun Ce said excitedly: "But the territory is still a little smaller. It seems that I will seize the time and defeat Jiang Xia before talking about it."

Sun Ce smiled and continued, "Take the opportunity to attack Jiangxia and develop his own strength while they were doing some martial arts competition."

After hearing this, Zhou Yu was stunned at first, waiting, there seemed to be something wrong? I came to persuade him not to postpone the attack on Jiang Xia. Now it seems that he is saying the opposite?

So Zhou Yu hurriedly said, "Bofu, have you ever thought about why Cao Cao was going to participate in this martial arts competition?"

After hearing this, Sun Ce was also stunned. Zhou Yu didn't mention it. He didn't expect this at all. Cao Cao and Liu Zhe should be as powerful as fire. Cao Cao didn't send anyone to destroy the martial arts competition held by Liu Zhe. Now he will send people to attend and let the emperor issue an imperial edict, which made everyone in the world know that he sent people, which revealed a strange smell.

"Do they really have an affair?"

Sun Ce proposed this assumption again, otherwise why would Cao Cao want to promote Liu Zhe?

Zhou Yu said: "Bofu, haven't you seen the above content? If I guessed it well, Liu Zhe used this to attract talents from all over the world to Youzhou and then took the opportunity to recruit heroes from all over the world. Cao Cao sent people there, probably because he saw this. He sent people to emphasize his existence and let those people know that in addition to Liu Zhe, there is also his existence of Cao Cao."

Sun Ce subconsciously said, "Does Cao Cao want to do destruction?"

"It's hard to say that it's going to cause destruction, but he definitely doesn't want Liu Zheshun to successfully hold the martial arts competition. Think about it, what would happen if the people he sent defeated Liu Zhe's subordinates and won the world's number one?"

"Then, Cao Cao's momentum will definitely rise sharply." Zhou Yu explained without waiting for Sun Ce to answer.

Sun Ce understood and his eyes were sharp: "If that's the case, we should also send someone to participate?"

Zhou Yu nodded and said, "Yes, why did Cao Cao ask the emperor to issue an imperial edict? First, with the help of the emperor, the martial arts competition held by Liu Zhe seemed to be held by the emperor, so as to weaken Liu Zhe's momentum first. Second, let other princes send talents to join the martial arts competition, and hope that everyone will unite to attack Liu Zhe's subordinates and prevent Liu Zhe from winning the world's first place. This can further reduce Liu Zhe's momentum."

Zhou Yu finally concluded: "To be precise, Cao Cao asked the emperor to upload an imperial edict, but he came to ask for help."

"What a cunning Cao Cao,"

After listening to this, Sun Ce despised him. A decree would have to make so many colorful intestines, and he would have to go around so many circles. He despised him, and he had to despise him.

"Okay, the best in the world, right?"

After Sun Ce understood, he became excited: "I took action myself, this is mine."

"ha???"

"Bo Fu, are you going to Youzhou to participate?"

After being surprised, Zhou Yu was amused and laughed and hurriedly persuaded: "You are the lord, you can't go."

Sun Ce is the lord, so he ran to Liu Zhe's territory. What if Liu Zhe detained him and asked Sun Ce's subordinates to do?

When Sun Ce heard this, he realized that as the lord, there were many things he could no longer do.

"Oh, it's boring." Sun Ce sighed. After becoming the lord, many things were involuntarily, which made Sun Ce helpless.

Finally, Sun Ce asked, "Gongjin, who do you think should be sent?"

He now has military generals under his command, including Lu Meng, Zhou Tai, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Huang Gai, Pan Zhang, Jiang Qin and others, and everyone can stand alone.

Zhou Yu thought for a while and said, "Now there are Zhou Tai, Han Dang and Jiang Qin in Wu County. You might as well let them go. By the way, let Lu Fan go together. Lu Fan has been to Youzhou and has him to handle the matter, so everything is convenient."

Sun Ce nodded and said, "Youping (Zhou Tai's name) has the strongest martial arts skills. I feel relieved that with him, it is not that easy for Liu Zhe to win the first place. Although Yi Gong (Han Dang) and Gong Yi (Jiang Qin's name) are not as good as Youping's name) but it is enough to deal with Liu Zhe's subordinates. Unfortunately, I can't go, otherwise the number one in the world will definitely be mine."

Sun Ce was very confident in his martial arts. He was invincible in the fight against Jiangdong and had already looked down on the heroes of the world. He never took Liu Zhe seriously.

Zhou Yu said: "You are the lord, you must sit in Jiangdong, and you must postpone the attack of Jiangxia first, and wait for the martial arts competition to finish before watching. If I guess correctly, Cao Cao will probably be unable to hold back then."

It has been more than half a year since Cao Cao returned from Yongzhou. During this period, Cao Cao has cultivated and restored his life and did not exert a lot of troops.

"All right."
