Optimization System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 68 Green Plum Cooking Wine
"The various tribes of the Qiang people are fighting, and Han Sui's tribe has formed a large scale. If it is allowed to develop, it may be disadvantageous. All the soldiers are at the border. Can we send troops to conquer?"

The content of Li Ru's letter to Zhang Lan is very simple, just 45 characters.

But just these 45 words made Zhang Lan's brows furrowed. Spring is here, and the third conquest of Dingyuan is imperative. How can tigers and wolves feel at ease?

For a long time, Zhang Lan was in Luoyang, and Liangzhou was handed over to Li Ru directly, asking Zhuge Liang to help him take charge of internal affairs.The two of them did not disappoint him, and they have indeed done a good job all the time. Until now, Zhang Lan has once again discovered his lack of ability.

At the beginning, he was really good at handling government affairs with his talent, but at that time it was only Prime Minister Maoling, and there were only so many territories. Now it is different. Although there are more talents in Si and Liang, they are not as good as The site is growing fast, and if it continues with this momentum, Zhuge Liang will still die with all his might.

When Zhang Lan was struggling to figure out how to deal with it, Cao Cao arrived.

Zhang Lan was aware of Cao Cao's reason for coming. He had already guessed that Cao Cao would agree to his suggestion the first time he received the system prompt that Cao Cao's ambition was rising, but it was only a matter of time.

"Meng De, come and sit down"

Cao Cao was directly confused by Zhang Lan, "My lord, this time"

Zhang Lan waved his hand directly, stopping Cao Cao's words and saying, "I will send you five generals Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, Cao Hong, Cao Ren, and Zhang Yun. The foreign order Xi Zhicai will be your military adviser, half of the tiger and leopard riders, and I will give you another 3 yuan." People and horses, with the generation of Longxi as the foundation, all matters are up to you to decide, even Li Ru, the governor of Liangzhou, can refuse, are you willing?"

Hearing Zhang Lan's words, Cao Cao was a little dazed, and couldn't help sighing in his heart, "My lord is really a god, since I know what's on my mind."

Looking at Cao Cao's expression, Zhang Lan smiled slightly, "Meng De, work hard, I'm optimistic about you."

Zhang Lan's behavior of delegating power is undoubtedly the greatest recognition of Cao Cao, whether it is trust or talent, in short, Zhang Lan can choose himself to go out to expand his power, which is what a trustworthy person can do.

Under such circumstances, Cao Cao couldn't help but have the urge to die for his confidant, and his loyalty was once again raised to [-]%.

"This is really a surprise." Zhang Lan thought in his heart that he originally planned to use the optimization system to optimize Cao Cao after a while, and it seems that there are optimization points left.

"Master!" Cao Cao opened his mouth with reddened eyes, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only say the word "Master" to express his current mood.

A sense of ample vanity spread throughout Zhang Lan's body, suppressing the joy in her heart, and said to Cao Cao, "Meng De, you go, I will send someone to send you a letter later, don't let me down"

Cao Cao nodded fiercely, glanced at Zhang Lan, turned around and left.

At this time, Cao Cao came to Zhang Lan, and it happened to agree with him. Originally, the Qiang people needed to be resolved, and Cao Cao was also going to send them out. The time just happened to meet, so they killed two birds with one stone, and let Cao Cao solve the Qiang people's problems by the way. .

With the problem in her heart solved, Zhang Lan was naturally extremely happy, so she no longer hesitated, and went directly to the backyard to find Dong Yu, Diao Chan, and Chen Xi.

And Cao Cao, walking on the streets of Luoyang City, was full of emotion in his heart. He couldn't help but follow some wind and rain after Zhang Lan from the Yellow Turban Uprising, and his heart became drunk. He decided to drink with Liu Bei, the object he had always wanted to win over.

When he came to the gate of Liu Bei's mansion, Cao Cao asked the guard in front of the gate to inform him and waited for a while before Liu Bei came out.

"Brother Meng De, why are you here today?" Liu Bei greeted Cao Cao with a smile.

Cao Cao also said with a smile, "Why, won't Xuande invite me in?"

"Where is Meng De talking, hurry up, please come inside"

Entering the room, Cao Cao said directly, "I came here today to have a good drink with Xuande, do you want to accompany me?"

Liu Bei was puzzled and asked, "Why?"

Cao Cao chuckled, "No hurry, no hurry, Xuande send someone to prepare some food, I'll go to the residence to get my hero drunk"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a voice like a lion's roar, "I'll go, I'll go, just tell me where I am."

It was Zhang Fei who spoke, and when he heard that Cao Cao was still drunk, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to shout out loudly.

Cao Cao was taken aback by Zhang Fei, and hurriedly said, "No need, no need, it's just a pot, today I want to have a private drink with Xuande, but you don't have a share."

Zhang Fei was anxious, "Why are you so picky, it's just a jar of wine"

Hearing Zhang Fei's words, Cao Cao immediately laughed angrily, "It's just a jar of wine? Do you know how much this wine costs? It's enough to buy a thousand-mile horse!"

"It's so expensive." Zhang Fei stared at his already big eyes.

Cao Cao ignored him, but Liu Bei smiled and said to Cao Cao, "Brother Meng De, you don't need to go in person. Yun Chang thinks you can trust me. Let him go and get it. Let's go in and talk first."

Slightly nodded, "Yes, that's fine."

The house that Zhang Lan gave Liu Bei was originally a bit empty, with only a small plum grove. Now Liu Bei is at the level of an emperor's uncle, and there must be attendants. Except for the cabbage field he planted, other There are servants to clean up. Of course, Liu Bei ordered his servants to do things.

These attendants of Liu Bei were also arranged by Zhang Lan. Originally, Liu Bei didn't want to accept them, but after all, it's not a bad thing to have no servants, so they finally accepted them all.

The servants in the kitchen are very agile, and in a short while, several small dishes have been prepared and served.

"Xuande, I see there is a plum grove outside, and the house is a bit stuffy, why not go out and cook wine with green plums, wouldn't it be fun?" Cao Cao pointed out the window.

Liu Bei unconsciously glanced at the place Cao Cao pointed at, laughed and said, "Brother Meng De is very elegant, so today we will cook wine with green plums."

Liu Bei ordered his servants to set up a table not far from the green plum tree, the two moved over, retreated from the servants, and began to drink Liu Bei's wine.

"I'm going out in a few days to lead the army alone"

Liu Bei was taken aback, "What do you mean by that?"

"My lord sent Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan and other generals to accompany me, with Xi Zhicai as my military adviser, and led me to lead an army to build a career. This time, I came here to invite brother Xuande to go with me."

After listening to Cao Cao's words, Liu Bei was overjoyed at first, and then thought of the agreement with Liu Xie, so he refused Cao Cao, "I wish Brother Mengde this opportunity first, so that he can make great achievements."

"Xuande won't go with me?" Cao Cao was a little puzzled. Liu Bei is now trapped in Luoyang. It is reasonable to say that Liu Bei should seize such a good opportunity to leave Luoyang.

Naturally, Liu Bei would not say anything about him and Liu Xie, but just shook his head with a faint smile.

Cao Cao is also a person who can afford to let go. Seeing that Liu Bei has his own ideas, he stopped asking, but said, "Who does Xuande think is a hero in the world?"

　Let’s make a small explosion today, I hope everyone will support me a lot, thank you!
