"Brother Meng De, I haven't seen you for many years, but your style is still the same!" When Zhu Yuanzhang heard the news, he had already been waiting outside the tent and walked forward enthusiastically.
Behind him, Zhao Kuangyin, Chi You, and Liu Xiu saw that Zhu Yuanzhang had come out as the main ally, so they had no choice but to follow him regardless of whether they wanted to or not.
This battle is a battle that will determine the future direction of the world, and it is also a battle that will determine their future destiny. For this reason, no matter how much grudges they have against each other, they must temporarily restrain themselves.
"Cao Cao met the King of Wu, but he was busy with military matters, so he was delayed for a long time. I apologize for troubling the King of Wu and all the princes." Cao Cao cupped his fists and saluted, smiling.
"Brother Meng De, you are here at the right time." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and took Cao Cao's arm.
The princes from all walks of life also greeted each other, and everyone looked friendly and harmonious. At least on the surface, these people seemed to be a real family.
After this battle, if Zhu Yuanzhang wants to expand in the next step, there are probably three directions. One direction is to Jingbei, the other is to Jiaozhou, and then he is waiting for Bashu. The last direction is naturally to go north to the Central Plains.
, and in this direction, Xuzhou is the top priority.
In other words, no matter which direction Zhu Yuanzhang chooses to expand after this battle is over, one day it will be the turn of the Central Plains. By then, Zhao Kuangyin of Xuzhou will be the one he must face.
One question. If you can make plans early, you might as well make plans early.
Now, in the situation in the Central Plains, Zhao Kuangyin is the strongest. Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang does not mind being intimate with Cao Cao more and supports Cao Cao and Chi You to join forces to fight Zhao Kuangyin. Li Xiang does not want to see a unified three states in the Central Plains.
Zhu Yuanzhang also did not want to see a unified three states in the Central Plains.
Although this alliance did not have the same momentum as when the princes challenged Dong, in terms of momentum, it was not weak at all, and was even stronger. When the princes met for an alliance, the momentum was overwhelming, but they actually had their own agenda.
Of course, the princes are not of the same mind at the moment, but on the matter of dealing with Li Xiang, everyone can basically reach an agreement.
Before Zhu Yuanzhang could speak, behind Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Guangyi suddenly spoke: "It is said that Meng Degong has many fierce generals under his command. The three generals of the Xu family are all the most powerful generals in the world. They are invincible. However, when we see them today, they are nothing more than this."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be startled. Zhao Kuangyin frowned and said: "Guangyi, don't be rude!"
"Are all Xuzhou military generals such arrogant people?" Xu Chu said with a fierce light in his eyes.
"Yelang is arrogant?" Zhao Guangyi raised his head, looked at Xu Long and Xu Feng behind Cao Cao, and sneered: "No matter how bad I am in Xuzhou, I will not use this rabbit son. If Meng Degong has no one around, I can ask my brother.
If you ask for help, I have many fierce generals in Xuzhou. For the sake of the world's righteousness, it would be good to lend Meng Degong a few men to strengthen their momentum."
Xu Long and Xu Feng are the two people Xu Feng and Lan Yu in the previous film and television summoning cards. Speaking of which, these two people are indeed more like the sons of aristocratic families. They are as beautiful as women, and are as beautiful as those in the big tent.
Compared with the rough old men, he really doesn't look like a warrior.
…
"You are a common man from this family. He is not very capable, but he is good at talking." Xu Long and Xu Lan had not spoken yet, but Xu Chu couldn't wait to defend his two brothers.
Xu Long and Xu Lan were definitely not reckless men. When Zhao Guangyi spoke, they realized that this was probably the opponent's method of motivating generals. Most likely, he wanted to provoke them to take the lead in attacking the Jin army.
Went to war.
Therefore, the two people had a tacit understanding and did not accept each other's moves.
However, Xu Chu didn't have as much thought as these two people.
"Even many people in Yangzhou have heard of the name of the Three Tigers of the Xu Family. If General Guangyi doesn't believe it, why not pick a general to compete with him!" Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.
The alliance hadn't even started yet, but his own people had started plotting against him, which made Zhu Yuanzhang very helpless.
However, even Lao Zhu himself would never lag behind when it was time to plot. At least, Lao Zhu was not willing to see Zhao Guangyi plot against Cao Cao as soon as he came up, so he blocked Zhao Guangyi back when he opened his mouth.
If he guessed correctly, Zhao Guangyi's next step was to provoke the three Xu family members to fight with the Jin army general to prove their abilities. However, with one word, Zhu Yuanzhang transferred the matter to Zhao Guangyi.
Zhu Yuanzhang will eventually march out of the Central Plains, and Xuzhou will always be a stumbling block in front of him, helping to create some conflicts between him and Cao Cao. No matter whether it is useful or not, it will always have some effect.
Moreover, regardless of whether a fight can start, even if a fight does happen, Zhu Yuanzhang is not worried that it will get out of control in the end.
After all, Zhao Kuangyin is not a simple figure, and the same is true for Cao Cao. If it comes to that, these two people will stop him without Zhu Yuanzhang taking action.
At the moment, Cao Cao and Zhao Kuangyin have not intervened. That is because it is not yet time for them to intervene. If that time comes, these two people will never see each other again.
"Yes, common man, how dare you compete with your grandpa!" Xu Chu said with a contemptuous smile.
Hearing this, Zhao Kuangyin's face darkened somewhat. He and Zhao Guangyi were brothers, and they were biological brothers. Xu Chu actually dared to be Zhao Guangyi's grandfather. Doesn't this mean that he also wanted to be him?
"What did you say, common man!" Many generals of the Xuzhou Army said angrily.
Xu Chu's words were ostensibly meant for Zhao Guangyi, but Zhao Kuangyin also suffered a terrible disaster! The emperor humiliated his ministers and died, and many generals of the Xuzhou Army who had reacted stopped at this time.
"That's enough!" Cao Cao feigned anger.
Although Cao Cao and Zhao Kuangyin had been on the sidelines before, and the relationship between the two parties was not confrontational, they had a bottom line and would not let the two groups of people under them really fight.
After all, the enemy they first need to face now is Li Xiang. This time they have finally gathered such a huge force. If they don't first put Li Xiang on top of them, the mountain will almost crush them.
If Dashan, who was so angry, was dealt with, and they started fighting instead, that would really be a joke!
"Zhongkang, you still haven't apologized to the King of Xuzhou!" Cao Cao seemed to blame him.
However, Lao Cao is Lao Cao. It was clearly a matter between Zhao Guangyi and Xu Chu, but he asked Xu Chu to directly apologize to Zhao Kuangyin, which was clearly directly saying that Xu Chu had pretended to be Zhao Kuangyin's grandfather just now.
