Invincible Three Kingdoms System

Chapter 408 "Sun Liu" Alliance

Sun looked at Yuan Tan and said with a flattering smile, "Your Majesty has a clever plan and captured Rencheng. You must have thought of a way to deal with Cao Cao long ago, right?"

Hearing what Sun Guan said, Yuan Tan felt very comfortable. He nodded and smiled and said, "General Sun is still knowledgeable. You are right. I have already figured out a way."

"Please show me, Eldest Young Master." Sun Guanshun climbed up the pole and said hastily.

Yuan Tan glanced at Simpi who was beside him, saw him nod his head slightly, and said, "Although I have occupied Rencheng now, it is in the name of Taishan Army, so naturally I can't directly confront Cao Cao on the face of it. "

Hearing this, Chang Xi became anxious, and quickly interjected: "If that's the case, how can we, Brother Taishan, be Cao Cao's opponent?"

"General Chang Xi, don't worry, I haven't finished talking yet." Yuan Tan waved his hand and said.

Chang Xi also knew that he was a bit abrupt, so he stepped aside and stopped talking.

Yuan Tan was very satisfied with the current situation. He glanced at the three of them and said with a smile, "But ask General Sun, who does Cao Cao hate the most in the world?"

Sun Guan was taken aback, and said subconsciously: "Of course I hate Tao Qian the most, but that is his father-killing enemy! However, Tao Qian is dead now."

"Tao Qian is dead, but there is still one person in Xuzhou." Simpi reminded.

"Liu Bei!"

Yuan Tan nodded, clapped his hands and said, "That's right, it's Liu Bei! Liu Bei almost succeeded in attacking Yanzhou, and made Cao Cao almost lose his footing. The two sides must be incompatible now."

"What does the eldest son mean?" Sun Guan asked.

"The three generals will join forces with Liu Bei to conquer Cao Cao. Of course, I will provide the food and other military supplies needed by the generals," Yuan Tan said.

The three listened and looked at each other, Sun Guan took a step forward and said, "That's really great, we'll send someone to contact Liu Bei immediately, let's raise our troops together!"

After everyone's discussion was over, everyone dispersed. Yuan Tan rewarded the meritorious soldiers and celebrated the capture of Rencheng. While writing a book, he went to Yecheng to inform his father Yuan Shao of his victory.

Ren Cheng has nothing important to do here for the time being, just stabilizing the city, repairing the city defense and other trivial matters.

Xuzhou Xiapi City, now Liu Bei sits in the town, positioned Xuzhou as the seat, Wu Guanyu, Li Jin, Wen You Chen Gong, Mi Zhu, Chen Deng and others gradually recovered.

And Zhang Chao is still stationed in Guangling, as the rear of Xuzhou, raising food and recruiting troops.

On this day, the director Sun Qian came to meet Liu Bei, and what he brought with him was a letter, which was brought to Liu Bei by Sun Guan of Ren Cheng.

Liu Bei opened the letter and watched it. After that, he ordered his civil servants and generals to be called together to discuss important matters.

"I don't know why my lord called us here?" Chen Gong asked first.

Liu Bei didn't answer, just smiled and handed the letter to Chen Gong.

Chen Gong received it in his hand, looked carefully, and couldn't help frowning slightly, then relaxed, while handing the letter to others for inspection, he said with a smile: "My lord, this is a god-sent opportunity."

Liu Bei raised his eyebrows, and asked back: "The meaning of Gongtai is to advocate cooperation with Sun Guan and others to fight against Cao thief?"

"Of course!" Chen Gong replied affirmatively, "Cao Cao's soldiers are elite and brave. If we take the land of Xuzhou to ask for it, it will cost a lot of money. If we can unite with Sun Guan and others, it will be much easier."

Liu Bei nodded, and just about to speak, at this moment, Guan Yu also finished reading the letter, and snorted coldly: "Sun Guanshu, but Taishan bandits, my eldest brother is the uncle of the great Han emperor, how can he join forces with him?"

After hearing Guan Yu's words, Liu Bei swallowed the words abruptly when he reached his mouth, and smiled at Chen Gong without answering.

Chen Gong could see that Liu Bei wanted to cooperate with Sun Guan, but Guan Yu's words were a little dead, and Liu Bei couldn't keep his face.

"General Guan is absurd. The so-called turmoil in the world is for profit; the prosperity of the world is for profit. Now we and Sun Guan have a common enemy, Cao Cao, why don't we unite and attack Cao's bandits?" Chen Gong said.

Guan Yu snorted coldly, squinted his red phoenix eyes, and didn't answer, looking extremely proud. Judging by his expression, he disdained to join forces with the Taishan bandits.

"My lord, I have a plan. I don't know if I should say it or not?" Sun Qian said suddenly.

Liu Bei smiled slightly and said, "I don't know what kind of clever plan Gongyou has?"

Sun Qian coughed lightly, took two steps forward, and said: "The name of this plan is to 'destroy Guo by false means'. Since Sun Guan invited me to join forces, he pretended to make a big camp. In killing the Taishan bandits, capture Rencheng, take advantage of the situation and attack Taishan County, when the time comes, the two places will become horns of each other, and the two armies will be dispatched at the same time, and Cao Cao will definitely be defeated!"

"No!"

The complacent look on Sun Qian's face hadn't faded away yet, Chen Gong and Chen Deng stopped him at the same time.

"Why not?" Sun Qian asked.

Chen Gong glanced at Chen Deng, but did not speak. Chen Deng took a step forward and said: "Although it is desirable to take Rencheng as a false plan to destroy Guo, this unjust act is not suitable for the Lord to act. It will bring small benefits but far-reaching harm. .”

"That's right, besides, Rencheng, on the surface, seems to be occupied by Taishan thieves, but in fact it is not." Chen Gongwei said.

After hearing this simple sentence, Liu Bei's heart was shocked, and he asked quickly: "What does Gongtai mean by this? Please explain in detail."

Chen Gong glanced at Chen Deng again, and then said: "Everyone, please think about it, could it be Cao Ren's opponent just based on the bandits on Mount Tai?"

After Liu Bei heard this, he was silent. He naturally knew Cao Ren, the general under Cao Cao, very well. Although he was not as good as his second brother by force alone, he was not much worse. It should have been defeated by the Taishan bandits. Could it be that there is still some secret?
Seeing Liu Bei's pensive look, Chen Gong went on to say: "If what I expected is correct, there must be someone behind the Taishan bandits supporting him, and this person should be Qingzhou Mu Yuan Tan!"

"Yuan Tan?" Liu Bei was surprised.

If this is the case, then things are a bit complicated. Although Yuan Tan is not very good, his father, Yuan Shao, cannot be underestimated.

Although Yuan Shao was defeated in several battles with Zhao Qian, he was not injured at all, and still occupied Jizhou and Qingzhou.

Chen Gong nodded and said: "That's right, it's Yuan Tan! When Sun Guan fought Cao Ren, it was Yuan Tan's army who pretended to be Taishan bandits and captured Rencheng. Joining with Sun Guan is joining with Yuan Tan. To unite with Yuan Tan is to unite with Yuan Shao, my lord, please be careful."

Liu Bei was really moved this time. Being able to unite with Yuan Shao is quite good. Think about the situation when Yuan Shao was the leader of the alliance and the eighteen princes crusade against Dong Zhuo.

So, regardless of Guan Yu's thoughts, Liu Bei said directly: "Gongyou, write back a letter, and I am willing to form an alliance with him."
