In the Han Dynasty, there is a saying of "Xianghe Song? Pingdiao Song", which also includes short songs and long songs.
Liu Chuang had some impression of Cao Cao's "Short Songs".
Speaking of which, Cao Cao once wrote two short songs in his life. In addition to this one, the song "How to relieve worries, only Du Kang" that has been widely circulated in later generations.
Liu Chuang immediately understood Cao Cao's intentions.
He expressed his feelings through this short song, and also hoped that Liu Chuang could understand him and give up on being enemies with him.
Liu Chuang, silent!
Cao Cao had a hint of hope in his eyes and felt a little nervous.
After a while, Liu Chuang raised his head and looked at Cao Cao, his eyes appearing particularly firm.
Cao Cao's heart couldn't help but feel cold...
"What my father-in-law does is the Han Dynasty; what I do is also the Han Dynasty.
This seems to be without conflict, but in the end... my father-in-law has no intention of plotting against him, but he may not be able to fulfill his wish in the end. I devote myself to the Han Dynasty, but I can't confirm the result. Sometimes, I can't help myself. My father-in-law is in a high position and should understand my intentions.
It’s so cold that even if you and I end up making a decision.”
Logically speaking, Liu Chuang should write poems to be harmonious.
But in the end, he did not plagiarize the poems anymore... First of all, Cao Cao's short song was quite grand. In Liu Chuang's heart, only Cao Cao's other short song "Short Song" could compete with it. However, that short song was ominous. In history, Cao Cao sang the short song, but Zhou Yu was burned to a hazy way. Although there were some coincidences, in Liu Chuang's opinion, it was not in line with his wishes.
Besides, the short song was written at this time. It was not very appropriate.
In addition to these two short songs by Cao Cao, there are other short songs in later generations.
Not to mention anything else, Cao Pi and Cao Rui have done short songs, but in terms of momentum, they are far less grand than Cao Cao's short songs.
Li Bai's short songs are pretty good, but they are too romantic.
At least in Liu Chuang's opinion, without that domineering, it is difficult to compete with Cao Cao's short songs.
Since there is no suitable work, don’t forcefully plagiarize it, as it will fall aside... Cao Cao’s intention is to use this short song to express his ideal of pacifying the world. But there is a gap between reality and ideals, and Liu Chuang can no longer look back.
If Liu Bei had not caused any trouble in it back then, Liu Chuang would have served Cao Cao.
But now...
Everything is too late!
Just as Cao Cao would not give in, Liu Chuang could not change his mind.
He said it very clearly: Cao Cao, you say that what you are doing is the Han Dynasty, but when you reach a certain position, you can't help it. You are leading everyone forward, and when you want to rest and don't want to continue moving forward, the people behind you will push you forward. At that time, will you go or not? And my situation is no different from you.
Everyone has reached this point and has no room for retreat.
In fact, you know it in your heart; I understand it in my heart, why bother to deceive yourself?
Cao Cao's heart twitched, and he looked at Liu Chuang unable to speak for a long time... He couldn't explain what kind of feeling he felt at this time, and he was relieved and regretful.
I didn't see Liu Chuang's literary talent, but these straightforward words touched him even more.
After a long time, Cao Cao sighed and said softly: "Meng Yan, I regret even more now. I didn't kill you in Xudu at the beginning."
The height is so cold. These five words are really good, and they hit Cao Cao's thoughts.
Liu Chuang laughed, "It was a good thing for my father-in-law to not kill me back then, otherwise wouldn't this life be too dull and less exciting?"
"Yes, with you guys, this life is even more exciting!"
Speaking of this, Cao Cao suddenly turned his horse's head.
"Meng Yan, aren't you going to keep me?"
Liu Chuang whispered: "If I keep you at this time, wouldn't it hurt Yuwa's heart?"
Cao Cao thought about Liu Chuang's various answers, but he didn't expect that Liu Chuang would answer him like this... He smiled slightly, then breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly: "Take good care of Yuwa on my behalf. If I bully her, I will definitely not let you go."
"Don't worry, father-in-law, I will do my best for her."
Cao Cao glanced at Liu Chuang again, then suddenly urged him to get off his horse and left.
The two young men who followed Cao Cao hesitated for a moment.
One of the young men shouted at Liu Chuang: "Liu Chuang, don't be proud... Remember my name, my name is Cao Zhen, and I will definitely take your life."
After saying that, he and another young man hurriedly left.
Cao Xiu smiled bitterly and bowed to Liu Chuang, "Don't be angry, Zidan has always been like this."
That young man is Cao Zhen?
Liu Chuang couldn't help but be stunned.
This Cao Zhen is a famous figure in history. His name is Zidan, and he is Cao Cao's adopted son.
"Wei Lue" records that Cao Zhen's original surname is Qin. His father Qin Shao died in order to sue Cao Cao, so he was later adopted by Cao Cao and changed his surname to Cao. Cao Cao felt sorry for his loss of his father since childhood, so he treated him like his son and let him live with Cao Pi, which even surpassed Cao Pi in his place.
This man was brave and had shot and killed a tiger.
This person was also mentioned specifically in Sima Yi's information.
Cao Cao asked him to command the tiger and leopard cavalry and became the Marquis of Lingshouting, whose status was similar to Cao Peng.
By the way, another young man behind Cao Cao just now seemed to be a general in the realm of refining the gods. He brought his godson Cao Zhen over here. Could the other young man be Cao Peng? Sima Yi's information said that Cao Zhen and Cao Peng had a good relationship...
Cao Peng was defeated by Liu Chuang on the south bank of Zhangshui, and even lost the two cities of Wuyi and Guanjin.
And according to Pang De, Cao Peng was also a general in the realm of refining the gods, and was not even a match with Pang De.
Liu Chuang was already sure that the young man who didn't say anything behind Cao Cao was Cao Peng and Cao Youxue. These two people were people who valued the most by Cao Cao. No wonder he had the courage to come and talk to him, and it turned out that he was following a super thug.
Thinking of this, Liu Chuang couldn't help laughing!
It seems that this time, I have to meet Cao Cao.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The next day, it was just dawn.
Liu Chuang was in the middle of the central army's tent and heard that Cao's army was fighting outside.
He couldn't help but be stunned. He immediately raised his troops, led the civil and military generals out of Guanjin, and set up a formation outside the city.
The rain has stopped, a scorching sun is hanging high, and the heat waves are rolling.
Looking across from a distance, I saw that Cao's army had already set up its formation, and the sound of war drums rumbling. The shouts of shouts rang out throughout the sky.
Cao Cao sat on his horse and watched the battle under the gate.
In front of the two armies, a general Cao was circling, showing off his might and provoking the Han army.
"Who is this, so arrogant?"
When Liu Chuang saw the general's arrogant and domineering, he couldn't help but frown.
"This person's name is Liu Hu, and it is said that he was originally named Liu An.
When he was eighteen years old, he killed tigers with bare hands, so he changed his name to Liu Hu. It was after Cao Cao returned to Xudu last time. He recruited a powerful general."
After Cao Cao returned to Xudu at the beginning of the year, he issued a recruitment order.
Liu Chuang also heard about it, but he didn't care.
The reason why I didn't care was that Cao Cao's order to recruit talents this time was not the only talent-oriented order that Liu Chuang remembered. Perhaps it was opposed by Xun Yu and others, Cao Cao was not able to completely suppress the power of the clan at this time, so the order to recruit talents was not as sensation as the only talent-oriented order in history. However, even so, Cao Cao still recruited many capable people.
This Liu Hu is one of them.
However, Liu Chuang had never heard of this person.
During the Three Kingdoms period, there was indeed a man named Liu Hu, who was just Liu Biao's nephew.
And this Liu Hu is obviously not Liu Hu from Jingzhou, so Liu Chuang curled his lips and said coldly: "Who is going to take the head of this crazy gangster for me?"
"The lord will stop being angry, and he will take the heads of others in the last days."
Before Liu Chuang finished speaking, a general rode out.
He recognized that general was Yang Feng, the captain of the Black Mountains who had met Liu Chuang earlier at the Hutuo River Ferry.
However, Yang Feng was obviously not Liu Hu's opponent, and he was at a disadvantage in just a few rounds. When Yang Feng's son Yang Ming saw that Yang Feng was not an opponent, he quickly jumped out, trying to help Yang Feng with his arm. Unexpectedly, as soon as Yang Ming broke out, a Cao general rushed out of Cao's army.
"Dog thief must win the more with less, look at the arrow!"
The general Cao rode his horse and scurried his bow and arrows on the horse, shooting out three consecutive arrows.
Yang Ming quickly raised his sword to block it, and finally avoided the opponent's three arrows, but he didn't expect that the opponent would shoot again, knocking Yang Ming down.
When Yang Feng saw Yang Ming being shot off the horse, he suddenly felt panicked.
He was no match for Liu Hu, and when he was panicked, he couldn't help but slow down. Liu Hu raised his sword and fell down.
In just a moment, Liu Chuang lost two generals in a row.
Cao Jun suddenly became morale and shook his flag and shouted...
Cao Cao was under the door flag, twisting his beard and laughing, showing a look of pride.
Liu Chuang's face was as deep as water, and he was about to go out to fight after lifting his spine.
But before he could take action, a black shadow rushed out of him and ran towards Liu Hu. While running, he said angrily: "When you dare to kill my uncle, you can beat me!"
Liu Hu killed Yang Feng and was proud.
Unexpectedly, a big boy like a black iron tower rushed out from the opposite side, carrying two hammers in his hand and rushing towards him.
Is it a step-by-step process?
Liu Hu didn't see the other party. He was about to start a murder and make a contribution in front of Cao Cao. Seeing that someone came to die again, Liu Hu showed a ferocious look and shouted sternly: "Where did the black boy come from? He actually came to seek death, but he didn't even sign up.
A certain family fell down, an immortal ghost..."
However, before he could finish his words, the other party had already arrived in front of him.
Dong Qi was born with a pair of scuds and was extremely fast.
He didn't talk nonsense to Liu Hu. Seeing that Liu Hu was still three or five steps away, he suddenly jumped up, with two hammers pressing down on the top of Mount Tai, and shouted, "Taishan Hammer."
The iron hammer buzzed and fell down with a sharp wind.
Liu Hu was still shouting, but he didn't expect that this black boy would not follow the rules and beat him as soon as he said he could.
