The bright moon is in the sky and the stars are shining brightly.
Outside Huangsha City.
Since the Chu army and the Mongolian army had been in a tense state of confrontation with each other, except for the sentries responsible for their respective guard duties, all the soldiers were exhausted by the war.
In the middle of the night, the roar of war horses could be heard from time to time in the city. In the General's Mansion and the meeting hall, generals Liu Bei, Zhang Xiu, Lu Bu, Ran Min, and Guan Yu were sitting, all with angry expressions on their faces.
"General, the general of the Mongolian army called for formation today. Why didn't the general give the order to go out of the city to meet the enemy?"
"The Mongolian barbarians have strong soldiers and millions of soldiers. How can they compete with them?"
"But the generals also know that this is the second time the Mongolian army has come to Huangsha City. Their millions of soldiers have made two long-distance attacks. Mongolia is not as wealthy as our Chu state. They don't have much food and grass to carry. The protracted battle will take a long time.
If you defeat the enemy, you will definitely lose your morale."
"They are rushing to attack, so we will avoid their sharp edge. I believe that reinforcements are definitely on the way. A battle with the Mongolian army is inevitable, but it is definitely not happening now. I hope the generals can keep their composure."
Liu Bei explained, and all the generals nodded, thinking that what he said was reasonable. Today, the Mongolian army called out dozens of formations under the city and launched six attacks in succession. Just as Liu Bei said, they came thousands of miles away and must attack quickly.
Early the next morning.
Thousands of miles away in the Northern Wei Empire, in the palace, a young eunuch got off the pigeon's lap and got out of the small bamboo tube, got up and walked quickly towards the depths of the palace.
"Your Majesty, there is news from Mr. Jia!"
"Bring it to me!"
Cao Cao was discussing government affairs with Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai at the moment. The young eunuch quickly stepped forward and handed over the letter in his hand.
"Haha, what a Jia Xu, he diverted the trouble to the east and completely put the Chu State into a passive position!"
Cao Cao was overjoyed, knowing that this was a God-given opportunity to recuperate and regain his strength.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Jia used a piece of letter to deceive the Mongolian army and return without success. This plan is really clever."
"My emperor personally sent a letter to the Fuso Island Kingdom. I believe that they have also launched an attack on the Chu Kingdom at this time. Although this time they have lost a year's fiscal revenue, it has caused a huge change in the situation."
"The rising star of the Chu Kingdom, the Emperor of Chu dominates the military and strengthens his troops. When the two powerful forces meet, the brave men fight, resulting in countless casualties and serious damage to their vitality."
"Now my emperor can use his troops to conquer Soochow and take down the most powerful empire on the East China Sea. The power of our Wei Dynasty will be greatly increased. One will wax and wane while the other will increase. The world will be turned upside down. Mongolia, Western Liao and Xixia will become the three kingdoms of our Wei Dynasty.
Target, divide and eat them, and defeat them one by one."
"otherwise!"
"Wen Ruo's words are only three-fold true. After the battle between Mongolia, Xixia, Xiliao and Chu, the strength of Mongolia, Xixia, Xiliao and Chu will be reduced sharply. I am sure to win the land of the Three Kingdoms, but I also want to conquer the Chu Kingdom, break through Dongwu, sweep across the East China Sea, and the East China Sea.
There is only Chu State in the south, so I cannot let Emperor Chu survive in this battle, otherwise he will become my strongest opponent in the future."
Cao Cao's words shocked Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai. They admitted that Cao Cao had great ambitions, but they did not expect that Cao Cao actually wanted to defeat Chu, Mongolia, Xixia, Xiliao, and Dongwu in one fell swoop.
"Wen Ruo, Zhicai, and Jia Xu have been in the Chu Kingdom for a year. He has witnessed the Chu Emperor creating too many impossibilities, so he must die. I don't want him to be my future opponent."
"So now we must capture Soochow in the shortest possible time, and the rest needs to wait. The time is not yet ripe."
Cao Cao's eyes were cunning and he looked like an old fox. He had great ambitions, a good plan, the opportunity to hide the universe, and the ambition to swallow up the world. The Northern Wei Empire was just the beginning.
"Zhicai, reply to Jia Xu and tell him that he can leave Chu. This battle is over, and Chu will completely become a speck of dust in the history of the War Continent. He has accomplished a remarkable feat. I am waiting in Luoyang City.
He's back."
Three months ago.
Jia Xu Feige sent a letter to Cao Cao to advise him, asking him to pass the content of a letter to Temujin's ears, so as to resolve the crisis of the Three Kingdoms encircling the Northern Wei Dynasty.
Unexpectedly, Temujin mistakenly believed the rumors, returned without success, and directed his troops towards the Chu State. In fact, before arriving at Huangsha City, Temujin already knew that Cao Ah had been tricked, but it was too late, and he could only make mistakes.
On that day, the Emperor of Chu prepared for a rainy day and secretly sent his army to Huangsha City and the Prince of Beihan. This avoided the eyes of the marriage envoys, but it failed to escape the eyes of Jia Xu. In his letter, he asked Cao Cao to send the Emperor of Chu to both sides.
The news of the heavy troops gathering in the city was leaked to Temujin.
Temujin sent someone to check it out, and it was found to be completely consistent with the news, which made him determined to return.
Emperor Chu became the target of public criticism, and Cao Cao did not forget to add fuel to the fire. He spent a lot of money to bribe the Fusang Empire's cabinet, so that the Fusang Empire, which had been hit hard by civil strife, decided to attack the coastal cities of Chu.
Cao Cao's understanding of Emperor Chu was just like Emperor Chu's understanding of Cao Cao. Emperor Chu only valued Cao Cao because Cao Cao was qualified to be his opponent.
But Cao Cao was afraid of Emperor Chu, because he was shocked every time he heard Emperor Chu's message, so he must take this opportunity to completely eradicate Emperor Chu and avoid future troubles forever.
"Wen Ruo, please order Cao Ren, Zhang Liao, and Xu Huang to lead their troops to attack Soochow immediately. It must be captured within one month."
"Wei Chen is going to deliver the order now!"
After Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai left, Cao Cao stood up and walked to the inner hall, opened the mechanism on the screen, and disappeared into the imperial study.
A few moments.
Two respectful voices sounded. Cao Cao sat in the top position deep in the underground palace, his face as gloomy as frost. The domineering look of his figure disappeared, replaced by a strong bloodthirsty and murderous aura.
"Master, everything goes well. The plan can be implemented in one year. In addition, what the master asked to find has been found."
"Master, Colonel Touching Gold has formed an alliance with the Excavation Corps, and I believe the underground Jade Palace will be opened soon."
"Very good, you can retreat. Remember to pay attention to Emperor Chu's movements at all times. I want to know his every move."
"My subordinate understands!"
Cao Cao's eyes were stern, he raised his hand and snatched the brocade box from the black shadow in front of him, and waved his sleeves to signal the two of them to leave.
Two black shadows disappeared into the underground palace. Cao Cao opened the brocade box in front of him, and a cloud of black mist rose up. His expression became ferocious and terrifying, as if he was enjoying himself, and he began to crazily devour the mist lingering around him.
...........
Three days have passed since the generals left Huxiao City. In the Chu Palace, Emperor Chu walked out of the other palaces of Acihai, looked at Xiao Guizi and said.
"Send someone to send the Mongolian princess to Huangsha City. Remember that she must not be allowed to escape. She must be delivered to Mr. Liu personally."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will arrange secret guards to carry out the execution. It will be absolutely foolproof."
Emperor Chu waved his hand to signal him to leave, turned around and glanced at the palace behind him, then walked away with a flutter of sleeves. At this time, a burst of soft sobs spread.
Outside the imperial study, Bai Qi and Luo Shixin saw Emperor Chu getting up. They strode forward and saluted, "Your Majesty, everything is ready. When will we set off?"
