Cao Hong, the general of Yanzhou, strode towards Cao Cao's study.
Before anyone arrived, Cao Hongliang's voice arrived first.
Hearing the sound of hurried footsteps, the discussion in the study came to an abrupt halt.
Cao Cao frowned, put down the royal scroll in his hand, and said, "Zilian (Cao Hong's cousin), what's the matter? Please speak slowly."
After receiving an edict from Liu Hao and promoting Wei Hou as an exception, Cao Cao has reached the pinnacle of his life.
Although his appearance is not amazing, his treacherous demeanor is becoming more and more calm and dignified, and he feels a bit like he is anticipating the collapse of the mountain but does not change his expression.
"Mengde, there is news about two major military aircraft here!"
Cao Hong and Cao Cao were brothers of the same clan. After saluting, they sat down on the empty seat and said:
"First, the news blockade in Jingzhou was broken. Some scout brothers dived and swam across the Han River from Nanyang to Runan, bringing back first-hand news... Liu Biao, the herdsman of Jingzhou, was killed by Chu Gong Liu Hao.
, completely defeated, and the entire Jingzhou force was completely destroyed!"
"Second, there is news from Changxi of Taishan County. It is said that soldiers and horses gathered on the border of Xuzhou. It seems that under the leadership of General Qin Qiong of Liu Hao's army, they invaded Zhuxu County of Qingzhou and broke out with General Yan Liang of Hebei.
There was a big battle!”
Cao Hong's voice was loud, and he finished these two urgent military reports in one breath. He took the teapot on the table, put it to his mouth, and drank it down!
Everyone in the room looked solemn!
"The Duke of Chu actually conquered Jingzhou and then attacked Qingzhou. How confident is he!?"
"The battle in Jingzhou... was originally expected to last for about a year before the winner can be determined..."
A bright light flashed in Cao Cao's little eyes.
Army advisor Cheng Yu also stroked his short beard and murmured: "Jingzhou's 100,000 navy troops span the rivers and seas. Logically speaking, it is impossible for the whole line to be defeated so quickly..."
Another peerless counselor Xi Zhicai also said: "However, Duke Chu is not an ordinary person. He has peerless handsome men like Zhou Yu and Chen Qingzhi under his command. In one battle, they wiped out more than 300,000 Shanyue and Jiaozhou Shixie..."
Everyone couldn't help but shudder when they thought that the 300,000-strong army was wiped out by Liu Hao's Chu army within half a year...
After finally digesting this shocking news, everyone sighed in unison: "The power of Chu Gong's army is really terrifying!"
Xia Houyuan was the general in charge of the army, so he had nothing to say about this.
The strength of Liu Hao's army is not just a boast!
"Oh hahahaha!"
Everyone was shocked, but Cao Cao, the Marquis of Wei, put his hands on his hands and laughed, saying: "The Duke of Chu has the genius Guo Fengxiao, the white-robed god of war Chen Qingzhi... I also have Zhongde (Cheng Yu's cousin), a man of great ambition and wonderful talent.
He is a peerless talent!"
Everyone felt this in their hearts and said to themselves: "Yes, our Yanzhou army is one hundred thousand strong, and we are also the best in the world!"
"There are also five thousand tiger and leopard cavalry. Our strength is not weak!"
...
Cao Cao encouraged people's hearts and continued: "Zhongde, Zhicai, in your opinion, do these two things have any benefit to us?"
As expected of a traitor, he always thinks of his own benefit in everything.
Cheng Yu pondered for a while and then said: "Lord, I just thought about it carefully. The Chu army defeated Jingzhou and attacked Qingzhou again. In fact, it is a huge opportunity for the development of our power in Yanzhou!"
"oh?"
Cao Cao acted like he was all ears and said: "Cao, I would like to hear the details..."
Cheng Yu said loudly: "The people of Qingzhou have been fierce since ancient times. When fighting, the Qingzhou soldiers are often brave and not afraid of death. Now if the Qingzhou soldiers and the Chu army are in a deadly fight, we in Yanzhou can directly take the land of Hebei."
, you can take in Qiaojun in Yuzhou, Runan, Nanyang and other places..."
Xi Zhicai also agreed, saying: "The harder the Chu army and Yuan Shao's army pinch them, the greater our chance of taking advantage of the chaos to develop!"
"well said!"
Cao Cao's little eyes revealed a frightening gleam, and he rubbed his hands excitedly and said: "Our Yanzhou area is too small. It is already the limit to support one hundred thousand soldiers. Now... our opportunity has come
Got it!"
"Zhongde, you write two personal letters for me. The first one is to Duke Chu of Jinling. List Yuan Shao's crimes. The more the better, and ask Duke Chu to attack Yuan Shao together. When the time comes, I will get the land of Hebei and Duke Chu will take over Qingzhou.
The whole territory!"
"The second letter is sent to Gongsun Zan in Youzhou, encouraging Gongsun Zan to raise troops to go south and jointly attack Yuan Shao. In this way, the danger of sending troops to our army can be greatly reduced!"
The traitor Cao Cao, the more he talks about it, the more excited he gets!
The light between the eyes is like a blazing fire, bursting out with the flames of ambition!
...
Bingzhou, in the council hall of the state pastoral office.
Today, Lu Bu has been granted the title of Bingzhou Mu and was officially promoted to Marquis of Wen by the Han Dynasty.
The battle with the Xiongnu-Wuhuan coalition pushed his reputation to the pinnacle!
"This Liu Hao is really stupid. He took the newly formed rookie navy to fight against Jingzhou... If there is anything wrong with Ling'er, I will spare you!"
Lu Bu, with his golden sword sitting high on the throne, was extremely angry and scolded Wei Xu, one of the eight strong generals, bloody...
"Boss! It's none of your business when Liu Hao attacks Jingzhou... It's still your daughter. If you want to stay in Jinling, Jiangdong, and become a general of the Detachment of Women, it's none of my business!"
Wei Xu stood obediently and was being scolded, but he also wanted to cry but had no tears...
"I even want to bring Lu Qiling back by force, but it's impossible...I can't beat her..."
Of course, Lu Bu was headstrong and was not an easy person to talk to.
He frowned tightly, Huo Di stood up and shouted: "Come here, order 50,000 Bingzhou cavalry for me, and rush to Jiangdong!" ..
