The Supreme Call of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 292 Birthday celebration or poaching?
"Ha ha……"

Cao Cao laughed and said: "Wen He's words are exactly what I want! Liu Xiao is backed by the sea. Although there is no threat to the east, it also limits his space. He must either fight us, or he can only develop south. Is it just that Liu Bei is so easy to provoke? With the help of the Yangtze River, Liu Bei has gradually become a climate. Let Liu Xiao have a headache. On the other hand, we, whether it is Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, Liu Zhang in Yizhou, or Liu Biao in Nanyang, None of them are heroes, taking down the three lands is nothing more than picking something out of my pocket!"

It's not that Cao Cao is arrogant and complacent, looking at the world, only Liu Xiao is the one who really makes Cao Cao afraid. Except Liu Xiao, no one has entered his eyes. The foundation is too shallow, and the hero is not born at the right time, so he can only wait for the time. Only Liu Xiao doesn't have to bear it now. Who else is more powerful than Liu Xiao?

Cao Cao made up his mind and asked Chen Qun to go to Liu Xiao's camp again to discuss the strike. This time, with Cao Cao's resignation, Chen Qun naturally gained some confidence. It makes sense.

After several days in succession, Cao Cao and Liu Xiao finally reached an agreement that Shanyang County in Yanzhou; Lu County and Pei County in Yuzhou were all handed over to Liu Xiao; Liu Xiao ordered Gao Shun to withdraw from Wuyuan County and Shuofang County; The original and Shuofang were handed over to Cao Cao.

The two sides took what they needed, and Liu Xiao got the buffer zone. The junction of Xuzhou and Qingzhou was no longer a narrow bend, and he might be choked by someone at any time; while Cao Cao got most of Bingzhou, except Yanmen Yunzhong Dingxiang. Except for the three counties, all fell into Cao Cao's hands. Except for a large piece of land, with Shuofang County in hand, Cao Cao didn't have to worry about someone launching an attack on Sili Yuzhou from Shuofang County.

The only ones who are dissatisfied should be Liu Xiao's soldiers, especially the generals in the army. They are quite dissatisfied with Liu Xiao's move. If Cao Cao hadn't interfered, the entire Jiangdong would have been captured by now, and Liu Bei would have even been defeated. The general is dead, and now he wants to hand over the captured Wuyuan County and Shuofang County to Cao Cao. It is really a huge loss and all the benefits have gone to Cao Cao!
"Why, Jin Chuan, are you still not satisfied?"

Liu Xiao laughed.

Zhang Xiu said in a muffled voice: "My lord, I'm not satisfied, very dissatisfied? How can Cao Cao get all the benefits? If we start a full-scale war with Cao Cao, we may not be able to win Yuzhou!"

Liu Xiao shook his head and replied: "Jinchuan, Shuofang County and Wuyuan County are just one. The two counties together have only 10 people. The food is tasteless and it is a pity to discard it. So what if we give it to Cao Cao? We are justified. They occupied Lu County, Shanyang and Pei County, and the combined population of the three counties exceeds one million..."

Zhang Xiu said in a muffled voice: "My lord, I was born in Bingzhou and Liangzhou. Don't forget that Shuofang County and Wuyuan County connect Sili and Saibei, and go deep behind Sili. If Shuofang County is in our hands, once we fight with Cao Cao again If a war breaks out, we can send a team of elite cavalry to bypass Taiyuan County, launch an attack from the Shuo direction behind Sili, attack all the way into Luoyang and Runan, and turn Cao Cao's rear area upside down. Once Shuo Fang is given to Cao Cao , we are handing back the knife stuck in Cao Cao's back!"

"Ha ha……"

Liu Xiao laughed and said, "Jinchuan, do you also know that Shuofang is adjacent to Liangzhou? Where is Lu Bu now? Pengju has just received news that Lu Bu has led a remnant army into Liangzhou. Sooner or later, that guy will return to Liangzhou." They will come back, and where will they come from? Of course, it is the most unexpected place for Cao Cao, that is Shuofang County. Now that Shuofang County is given to Cao Cao, Cao Cao thinks that he can rest easy in the rear. Once Lu Bu raises his troops, he will definitely let Cao Cao drink a pot of!"

amount……

Zhang Xiu's face darkened, the lord was insidious enough, he threw away Shuofang County, dispelled Cao Cao's vigilance, but handed over Cao Cao's handle to Lu Bu or Liangzhou, but there are Ma Teng and Han Sui in Liangzhou Well, it is also not a fuel-efficient lamp. It is equivalent to handing over the defense on the west side of Bingzhou to Cao Cao. Even if it is struck by lightning, Cao Cao must be attacked first...

Liu Xiao said with a smile: "Okay, if we exchange two for three, we will definitely make a profit. You must know that one of the three counties randomly selected has a much larger population than these two counties. The population and fertile land are the best. What is important is what determines the ultimate strength in the future. These three counties not only provide us with depth, but also provide us with money and food. Why not do it? Next, what we have to do is to concentrate on killing Liu Bei!"

Everyone was shocked, and they wanted to beat Liu Bei?The lord must hate Liu Bei so much...

Zhou Yu's face turned red. No one here hated Liu Bei more than Zhou Yu. You must know that his best friend Sun Ce died under Liu Bei's hands. This hatred is irreconcilable!
"My lord, do you really want to attack Liu Bei?"

Zhou Yu asked in a deep voice.

Liu Xiao nodded and said, "That's natural. The persimmons are soft first. We don't have much chance of winning against Cao Cao, but against Liu Bei, our strength is far above them. Even if Liu Xiao and Liu Biao join forces again, We are not afraid at all! However, now is not the time to pick Liu Bei, let him live a comfortable life for a few days. It has been more than two years since the battle with Yuan Shao, and there have been many battles, even if we are backed by Qingzhou , Jizhou, the consumption is also astonishing, the people must be given space to recuperate, otherwise, once the people can’t eat, but they want to rebel against us, we can’t survive without Cao Cao attacking us. Whether it is us or Cao Cao, the consumption is not small, and we must take a breath in order to better conquer the world."

Zhou Yu kept nodding his head. Although the lord is not very old, he has a very stable heart and sophisticated methods. He is definitely a person who can achieve great things.

Liu Xiao went on to say: "I have already submitted a letter to the imperial court through Cao Cao, appointing Fang Xuanling as the shepherd of Youzhou, appointing Xun Yu as the shepherd of Qingzhou; The king of Jianjun, Guo Jia is the governor of the palace, assisting our prime minister in the military and political affairs of the four states, Yue Fei is the left governor, in charge of the military affairs of Youzhou and Jizhou; Gong Jin is the right governor, in charge of the military affairs of Qingzhou and Xuzhou; Shanyang County and Lu County are included in Qingzhou; Peijun is included in Xuzhou; all the other generals have their own duties; Zilong, assemble fifty elite cavalry, prepare generous gifts, follow me to Jingzhou, I will go to celebrate Liu Biao's birthday!"

amount……

Zhou Yu's face turned dark. The war had just subsided, and the states and counties needed to recuperate. The lord is the pillar of the four states. Instead of staying in Qingzhou to handle government affairs, he went to Jingzhou to celebrate Liu Jingsheng's birthday. The original joke, the lord actually Seriously!
"My lord, you, you actually take it seriously, we still have too many affairs to deal with, how can we leave you?"

Zhou Yu said anxiously.

Liu Xiao laughed loudly and said, "Haha, Gong Jin, I'm just kidding, Jingzhou is a must, but birthday celebration is just a title, it's real to poach Liu Biao's corner!"
