(PS: The third update is over.) "Brother Ziyu, we are all sensible people, why bother pretending to be stupid?" Cao Cao took a sip of wine and said with a smile.
Gao Fei said: "Brother Meng De, please speak frankly, I am really a little monk two feet tall and can't figure it out."
Cao Cao put down the wine jar, sat cross-legged on the ground, and said slowly: "Brother Ziyu, it should not be difficult to see that this time the emperor issued an edict, inviting everyone from the world to gather in Guandu, saying that it was to discuss the construction of the old capital, but from a certain
In a sense, this was Ma Chao's idea. Ma Teng and his sons marched eastward with 130,000 troops from Xiliang, with a vigorous momentum, quite like the First Emperor's intention to sweep Liuhe..."
Seeing Cao Cao stop, Gao Fei said: "Brother Meng De, don't hesitate. With our friendship, what else can't we say?"
Cao Cao chuckled, his face immediately became serious, and said: "Brother Ziyu raised a hundred thousand troops to cross the Yellow River south. The soldiers he brought were all elite. In terms of momentum, brother Ziyu was no less impressive.
Yu Xiliang soldiers. We understand people and don’t talk nonsense. Could it be that brother Ziyu wants to use this opportunity to snatch the emperor from the hands of Ma Teng, Ma Chao and his son, and then use the emperor to control the princes and control the world?
?”
"Hahaha...Brother Meng De, I'm afraid this is what you really think, right?" Gao Fei said with a smile.
Cao Cao spoke frankly and did not object at all. He answered honestly: "Yes, this is indeed my idea, but to be honest, brother Ziyu also has the same idea, right?"
Gao Fei took a breath, but didn't answer. Quan took it as acquiescence.
"Actually, since we have the same idea, why can't we act together? The Xiliang soldiers are coming fiercely, and their combat effectiveness is far better than my tiger and leopard cavalry. What's more, the 130,000 cavalry are not something you and I can resist alone..."
"Brother Meng De wants to join forces with me to deal with the Xiliang soldiers?"
"That's exactly what I meant."
"Haha, Brother Meng De, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd? First you went to tell Ma Chao to join forces to deal with me, and now you tell me to join forces to deal with Ma Chao. You are trying to play both sides to sow discord between me and Ma Chao. Could it be that you
Don’t you feel shameless?”
After hearing Gao Fei's words, Cao Cao already had an idea in his mind, thinking that Ma Chao sent someone to inform Gao Fei. However, his expression did not change. Instead, he looked a bit rogue and said with a smile: "Shameless people are fearless. Brother Ziyu often does it too."
Isn’t that shameless?”
After Gao Fei heard this, he said nothing and looked at each other and smiled with Cao Cao.
"Come! Don't say anything else. Let's take a few sips first. Let's talk about the rest slowly!" Cao Cao raised the wine jar and said.
Gao Fei and Cao Cao banged the wine jars, and then took two sips. After the wine was gone, they slowly said: "Brother Meng De, please speak frankly. I really want to hear your unique opinions."
.”
"We are brothers, and an alliance has been signed between the two countries. If we join forces to repel Ma Chao and capture the Emperor, as for the rest of the matter, we can negotiate together. You will be the general, I will be Sikong, and we will assist the Emperor together.
, why bother to go to war? However, Ma Chao is different, Xiliang soldiers are brave and fierce
, have well-developed limbs, simple minds, and accept death. They want to dominate the world in the name of the emperor, so for them, the two of us are the biggest obstacles. Just imagine, why did Ma Chao send someone to tell Xiandi that I had conspired with him?
, I just hope that if our two brothers fight, he can reap the benefits."
"When two tigers fight, one of them will be injured. When we are almost done fighting, Ma Chao will lead the Xiliang cavalry to clean up the mess. Then we will be unable to fight back and can only be at his mercy. Within two years, Ma Chao will definitely be able to
Unify the north and the Central Plains." Gao Fei continued Cao Cao's words.
"It is precisely because of this worry that I hope to join forces with my virtuous brother to repel Ma Chao and capture the emperor. We brothers will assist the emperor together, and my virtuous brother will be in charge of the army. If I am in power, I will be able to make the world prosperous."
Gao Fei was dubious about what Cao Cao said. This mentality already showed that he wanted to cooperate with him, which was a bit republican. However, Gao Fei knew very well that Cao Cao was not such a person at all. A long time ago, he had
this
He tried such words to test Cao Cao, but Cao Cao had no such intention at all. To him, Cao Cao was a tyrant, and he couldn't believe the words of a tyrant. What's more, a person as famous as Cao Cao was treacherous and cunning at heart and could not be trusted.
Cao Cao saw Gao Fei thinking for a long time and asked: "Xian brother, what do you think?"
"I think I should kill you first. Then the Wei State will be leaderless. I will lead the army to attack you with lightning speed. After annexing your Wei State, I will have a decisive battle with Ma Chao." Gao Fei smiled.
said.
After hearing this, Cao Cao burst out laughing and said: "Yes, yes, this idea is very unique. It makes me feel itchy in my heart. I also want to kill you now. But don't forget, even if we are
If a person is really dead, our subordinates are not easy to conquer. No matter you kill me or I kill you, in the end
You can only take advantage of the Xiliang soldiers. If you kill me, my subordinates will definitely avenge me. The power of hatred cannot be ignored, and it will definitely hurt both sides. If I kill you, the result will be the same. Don’t forget
Well, here in Guandu, there are three parties, not only you and me, but also a Xiliang soldier who cannot be ignored."
"It seems that I can't even kill you."
"No! You can still kill me. For example, after we defeat the Xiliang soldiers, we can have a decisive battle..."
"Very well, is this your final opinion?"
"Of course not. I don't want to start a war with my brother. My iron pagoda is already famous all over the world and is invincible. I don't dare to go against him. In terms of equipment and combat power, I am far behind him."
"Haha, Brother Meng De is really good at flattering me. In that case, what capital does Brother Meng De have to join forces with me to deal with Ma Chao?"
"Intelligence! This is where the battle depends!" Cao Cao stretched out a finger, pointed at the melon seeds on his head, and said with a smile, "With my good brother's superiority in leading troops in war, coupled with my ingenuity, I will definitely be able to defeat him."
You can defeat Ma Chao with little effort."
"You mean, I send the troops and you send the brains? Then wouldn't I be at a huge disadvantage?"
"No! Let's send troops together. My resourcefulness is no less than mine. Even the previously arrogant Yuan Shao was defeated by me. How many people in the world are my rivals? I will lead the Yan army, and I will lead
Wei Jun, how about we attack Ma Chao together and attack Ma Chao from both front and rear?"
"Well, then let's have a battle of Guandu. In the first battle, Ma Chao will go to his hometown in Xiliang!"
"Then it's settled?" Cao Cao asked with a smile.
"Yeah, but there's one person we should be worried about, someone hiding in the dark."
Cao Cao asked suspiciously: "Who?"
"The big-eared thief occupies the entire territory of Jingzhou and is well-equipped with troops. If he comes in to disrupt the situation, it will bring many uncertain factors to the battle of Guandu. Therefore, we must find a way to keep him in Jingzhou."
"It's better to borrow a knife to kill someone..." Cao Cao said.
"I'm all ears," Gao Fei said.
"Sun Wentai has always wanted to occupy Jingzhou. When Liu Biao was alive, Sun Wentai had many conflicts with Jingzhou. Now although Liu Biao is gone and Jingzhou has changed its owner, for Sun Wentai, Jingzhou has always been his heartache. Not as good as us.
We jointly wrote a letter and sent someone to send it to Soochow, asking Sun Wentai to send troops to attack Jingzhou and contain Liu Bei. In this way, Liu Bei would have no time to visit the north."
"No! Today's Soochow is no longer something you and I can control. Soochow's navy has not been trained. It will only be very difficult to deal with Liu Bei. Water battles are better than fighting on land, and Soochow has another
It’s downstream, so it’s extremely disadvantageous.”
"Then what does Xiandi mean?"
"Entrust Liu Bei in and let him lead his troops to Guandu. Brother Meng De will deal with Liu Bei and I will deal with Ma Chao. Let's have a battle of Guandu on an unprecedented scale. Let this battle leave the most glorious page in the history books from now on.
, this battle will completely defeat Ma Chao and Liu Bei!"
After hearing this, Cao Cao seemed to feel the immense ambition in Gao Fei's heart. On the surface, he nodded in agreement, but in his heart, he thought: "You are the most troublesome, but now I have to join forces with you. God's will plays tricks on people."
ah."
"Okay, it's settled. If my dear brother needs anything, I will send a large army to support him. The Xiliang soldiers are not easy to deal with. However, in my opinion, we should first join forces with Liu Bei to deal with Ma Chao. That way
If so, the chance of winning will be greater. As for dealing with Liu Bei, after Ma Chao is defeated, we can counterattack together and we will definitely be able to catch Liu Bei off guard and reduce a lot of casualties."
“It’s a deal!”
"Haha, dear brother, tonight we will drink and eat meat happily to prepare for the battle of Guandu." Cao Cao said with a smile.
The two of them had reached a consensus and started eating and drinking. At some point, they both became a little tipsy and left.
When Gao Fei returned to the military camp, it was already early in the morning. He was galloping along the way and was quite drunk.
When he returned to the military camp, Xun You, Guo Jia, and Wen Chou all stood at the door waiting for a long time. When everyone saw that he was back, they immediately came up to greet him.
"Lord, you are back. If you don't come back, my subordinates will definitely take people to find the lord." Wen Chou said worriedly.
"It doesn't have to be like this. I'm fine. By the way, has Dian Wei's injury been bandaged?"
Xun You said: "It has been bandaged and is currently being closely monitored."
"Very well, Wen Chou, I will leave Dian Wei under your control. You must not let him leave the military camp for even half a step, even if he is tied up."
"My lord, do you want to force Dian Wei to stay?" Guo Jia asked.
"What? Isn't it possible?" Gao Fei asked.
Guo Jiadao: "Yes, but with Dian Wei's character, I'm afraid it will be difficult to stay. It's better to kill him to avoid future troubles."
"If you don't kill him for the time being, I'll keep him for good. I'll treat him as a hostage. Go and bring Dian Wei to the tent. I want to see him."
"No!" Wen Chou responded with clasped fists and left immediately.
Gao Fei said to Xun You and Guo Jia: "Please pass the order. Early tomorrow morning, the entire army will march to Guandu to garrison."
