He was able to earn a county with just a little effort. Zhang Lu was in a good mood. (Novel Network)
"Haha." Gu Yong chuckled and was in a good mood.
………………
North, Guandu.[
The Battle of Guandu is still going on. Because of Liu Feng's strong intervention, the original history has changed a lot, and Cao Ren even suffered a major defeat in Wancheng.
Not only did they lose gold and gold, but they also lost most of their elite soldiers.
This situation further weakened the power that Cao Cao could use. The situation in the Battle of Guandu was completely tilted towards Yuan Shao.
But Cao Cao was also capable and used all his strength to launch a defense like a copper wall and an iron wall, intending to fight Yuan Shao to the death.
This Battle of Guandu has a feeling of being stretched out.
However, it is not surprising to the two parties involved. During the Warring States Period, every major war might last a year and a half, or even longer.
From the perspective of those involved, a war was a real battle for hegemony. Whoever defeated it would be the overlord of the world. It would not be surprising if the war lasted for several years.
Inside Guandu, inside Cao Cao's Chinese army tent.
Cao Cao sat alone on his commander's seat, meditating.
The war with Yuan Shao was still the same. Yuan Shao had the upper hand, but he was still unable to break through his defenses. This war had lasted for several months, and Cao Cao was tired of it.
There are no fighter planes, nothing similar.
Therefore, Cao Cao's mind was set on the south. Cao Ren failed. When he heard the news, Cao Cao couldn't believe his eyes.
Cao Ren is his younger brother, and the two have fought side by side for many years. Cao Cao knows best what Cao Ren is capable of. He can almost be said to be invincible. Even if Cao Cao leads an army against Cao Ren, he may not be able to stabilize Cao Ren.
Odds of winning.
However, Cao Ren was defeated by Lu Su, and he failed when Lu Su faced the three princes. This incident had a great impact on Cao Cao.
However, this is not what worries Cao Cao the most. What worries Cao Cao the most is the news that just arrived not long ago. Sima Hui, Pang Degong, and Huang Chengyan from Jingchu defected to Lu Su.
This incident had the greatest impact on Cao Cao.
The three of them are world-renowned scholars, and their reputation in Jingchu is almost top-notch. Cao Cao knew very well what consequences these three people would have if they defected to Lu Su.
Lu Su's power will become stronger and stronger.
"Liu Biao, Liu Biao. You have been in charge of Jingchu for more than ten years, but in the end you made a wedding dress for Lu Su, and you left me a lot of trouble."[
The more Cao Cao thought about it, the more his head hurt, and his attitude towards Liu Biao was also very bad.
Liu Biao's abilities were too low, and he was called a land-guarding dog in vain. In the end, he even lost Xiangyang. All the wealth accumulated over more than ten years was given to Lu Su.
Now we are in big trouble.
"Reporting to Duke Ming, an envoy from Jiangdong who claims to be Zhuge Jin has arrived." Just when Cao Cao felt a headache, a minor official came in from outside and reported.
"An envoy from Jiangdong?" Upon hearing the news, Cao Cao was surprised at first, and then a smile appeared on his face.
"Just when I was thinking about how to deal with Lu Su, Sun Ce came to my door to make a sword. It was really timely." Cao Cao felt very happy.
But he expected that Jiangdong's envoy would be the sword used to deal with Lu Su.
