Becoming stronger from cutting Hu and Cao Cao

The reason why Li Chen was able to grasp the intelligence one step ahead of others was that Jin Yiwei was as terrifying as a fellow.

Chapter 234 Can't Want, Can't Want, How Can I Want My Brother's Things

Cao ah is having a hard time recently, if all the kings of the world attack him in groups, Cao Cao's defensive pressure will be huge.If you look at this, you will lose the other.

Looking at it now, the Central Plains is the center of the war.And Li Chen's goal is Soochow, he doesn't want to get involved in Cao Cao's troubled waters.

The purpose of Cao Cao's coming to see him, Li Chen can imagine with his big thumb's toes, the purpose of his coming to see him is to join forces.

"Go and invite King Wei to come in." Li Chen instructed Luo Yangxing.

Since Cao Cao is here, Li Chen should see him no matter what, after all, the two sides have just formed an alliance under the city.It stands to reason that the two parties should be in a honeymoon period at this time, if Li Chen does not see Cao Cao, then it is somewhat inappropriate.

Li Chen ordered Luo Yangxing to invite Cao Cao to come in, and he was thinking about whether Cao Cao could resist this wave.

There is no doubt that the three-legged situation is the most stable. If Cao Cao sustains this wave, then he is destroying Soochow.Then the situation between the world is that I, Cao Cao, and the heroes of the world compete for the last ticket.

But if Cao Cao can't survive this hurdle, then after the heroes of the world carve up Cao Cao, the world will be in chaos among the kings.

After thinking about it for a long time, Li Chen felt that it was in his best interest to let Cao Cao survive.He had to find a way to keep Cao Cao going, and he couldn't send troops to get involved in this muddy water.If this is the case, then I can only support Cao Cao in terms of food, grass and equipment.

"Da da da."

Not long after, there was a sound of footsteps outside.Cao Cao walked in with a group of people. Among them were the bodyguards Guo Jia, Xu Chu, and Dian Wei, the military advisers, and Xia Houen, a boy with a sword on his back.

At the same time, Li Chen's military advisers Liu Bowen, Chen Deng, and a group of generals Chen Qingzhi, Yuwen Chengdu, and Pei Yuanqing also arrived.

Without further ado, Li Chen directly ordered his servants to set up wine and hold a banquet, and invite Cao Cao's party to the banquet.

"Brother Li, brother came here uninvited, please forgive me." Cao Cao saluted Li Mu.

"It's okay, it's okay, old brother is here, I will welcome him, we have something to talk about at the banquet." Li Chen said, and invited Cao Cao and others to the banquet.

Although it is not the time for him to eat and drink at this time, as the saying goes, do as the Romans do.Since Li Chen prepared a banquet, Cao Cao couldn't refuse.Moreover, Li Chen's current attitude is very enthusiastic, which is a good thing for Cao Cao.

The Jinyiwei under Li Chen is the most powerful intelligence agency in the world, Cao Cao naturally knows this.Therefore, Cao Cao's mission to Li Chen is naturally aware of his current embarrassment.Under such circumstances, Li Chen did not avoid seeing him, but entertained him instead.

This can at least prove that Li Chen should not be with Yuan Shao and the others.This is quite good news for Cao Cao.

Li Chen set up a banquet for Cao Cao and his subordinates, and it was hard for them to refuse, so they had to join the banquet.After entering the banquet, everyone should eat and drink, and there was a tacit understanding without mentioning other things.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Cao Cao raised his wine glass and made a toast to Li Chen,

He said earnestly, "Brother Li, do you know why I came here today?"

"Brother Cao's situation is not good recently, I have heard about this matter." Li Chen didn't pretend to be crazy, but said bluntly.

"Brother Li, I am here this time to beg you for help." Cao Cao had a pleading look on his face.

"Help, why should I save you? There is no such thing as a pie in the sky in this world." Pei Yuanqing said angrily.

"Yuanqing, don't talk nonsense." Li Chen scolded Pei Yuanqing.

"Brother Cao, my subordinate is young and vigorous, talking nonsense, please don't mind, Brother Cao." Li Chen turned his head away, and quickly apologized to Cao Cao.

As the saying goes, people have to bow their heads under the eaves. Cao Cao came today to confirm whether Li Chen participated in the siege of himself, and secondly, if Li Chen did not participate in this matter, he also wanted to ask Li Chen for help.

Who is Cao Cao? Cao Cao is a rare hero in the world. His thick skin is definitely comparable to the existence at the corner of a city wall.

Cao Cao didn't care about Pei Yuanqing's words at all, but after a few dry laughs, he said to everyone: "This little brother is right. There is no such thing as a pie in the world in this world. As long as Brother Li can save my Cao Cao's life, I will agree to any request."

"Hmph." Pei Yuanqing snorted coldly and took a sip of wine.But after being scolded by Li Chen just now, he didn't dare to say anything.

Li Chen took a look at Cao Cao, and happened to see Xia Houen, the sword-bearing boy next to Cao Cao.At this time, Xia Houen was carrying Yitian and Qingzhi swords on his back, and these two swords were nothing ordinary at first glance.

"I want a sword, what kind of sword do I want?"

"Yuan Qing, you're talking nonsense, get out of here." Li Chen cursed pretending to be angry.

At this time, Pei Yuanqing was about to stuff the food into his mouth, when he heard Li Chen's words, the hand holding the chopsticks froze instantly.Pei Yuanqing felt that the food in his mouth was not very fragrant.

Pei Yuanqing thought about it, so I ate some food and drank some wine. The only sound I made was two slaps and slaps. I said I wanted a sword.

As soon as Cao Cao heard the words "want swords", he wondered if he could keep these two swords.As the saying goes, if you don't want your children to catch wolves, you don't want your daughter-in-law to catch hooligans.

Cao Cao thought to himself, if you want a sword, I will give you one.No matter how precious this sword is, it is also an external possession.If this battle is lost, let alone the sword, I am afraid that I will lose my wealth and life.

"Ha ha!"

"Yes, yes. I didn't bring any gifts for my brother this time. This green sword is my sword, so I gave it to my brother." Cao Cao took it from Xia Houen's back while talking. He lowered the Qingzhi sword and handed it to Li Chen.

"How embarrassing is this? How can I want something from my brother? I can't, I can't." Li Chen stretched out his hand while talking.

Of Cao Cao's two swords, one is called Qingzhi Sword and the other is called Yitian Sword.The Yitian Sword is an auspicious object to suppress luck, and it cannot be given away lightly.Therefore, under such circumstances, Cao Cao could only give Li Chen his saber, the Qingzhi Sword.

Li Chen belongs to the Pixiu family, he can only go in and out.Since Cao Cao gave it, Li Chen naturally wanted to accept it.Li Chen took the Qingzhi sword from Cao Cao's hand, and then looked at it carefully.This green sword is really not an ordinary thing, it is heavy and full of texture, Li Chen pulled out the sword from the scabbard, only to see the cold light of this sword, giving people a feeling of deep cold.

Chapter 235 The Hero Among the Heroes

Cao Cao's Qingzhi sword is really a precious sword.Li Chen held the sword in his hand, and at a glance he saw that the sword was a real killing weapon.This sword is a sword used on the battlefield, and it is a big killer.

Li Chen pulled a strand of hair from Yu Wencheng's head next to him in great detail, and then put it on the blade of the sword.There is an idiom called what is it, called faultfinding.Bah, no, I said it.There is an idiom called blowing hair and breaking hair, which is an idiom specially used to describe whether a sword is sharp or not.Now Li Chen is going to try to see if this hair blowing is real.

Li Chen held the sword in his right hand, and the hair from Yu Wencheng's head in his left hand, and put the hair on the blade of the sword.Then Li Chen blew heavily on his own little iron lung.

"call!"

When Li Chen blew like this, the lock of hair in his hand actually split into two pieces.The broken hair was blown so hard by Li Chen, it scattered on the table and fell into the dishes.This made the few foodies who were immersed in the food feel a little embarrassed.

Xu Chu, Dian Wei, and Pei Yuanqing, these big-bellied men held up their chopsticks and looked at the dishes covered with hair. They felt that it was not right for them to use chopsticks now, or not to use chopsticks.

"Hahahaha!"

"Baojian, Baojian, I never thought that what you said about blowing hair and cutting hair is actually true." Li Chen used a dry smile to cover up his embarrassment. As long as he is not embarrassed himself, then the embarrassment will be others.

"As the so-called sword deserves a hero, this sword should belong to Brother Li." Cao Cao also said in cooperation.

Li Chen held the Qingzhi sword in his hand, and then set his eyes on the Yitian sword on Xia Houen's back.You know, from the appearance of these two swords, the Qingzhi sword is much more beautiful than the Yitian sword.

At this moment, Pei Yuanqing looked at the food with hair falling out, and said to himself, I don't want to eat this, I'll take a drink.Thinking of this, Pei Yuanqing picked up the wine glass on the table, raised his head and drank it, making a swallowing sound of "Gudu, Gudu".

"You want those two, why do you want two, Yuan Qing, you are going too far, boy."

"Brother Cao asked us to help, but you insisted on asking Brother Cao for a sword. After Brother Cao gave me his sword, you actually wanted another one."

"Pei Yuanqing, get out of here." Li Chen shouted, pointing to the door.

Pei Yuanqing: "???"

At this moment, Pei Yuanqing had a black question mark on his face.Pei Yuanqing said in his heart, I didn't speak, I just took a sip of wine.The food is not for people to eat, so is this wine not for people to drink?

Just now when I was babbling, you said I want a sword.Now I beep twice, you said I want two.You relied on me just now, and you still rely on me now.Come on, I figured it out, obviously you wanted someone else's sword, and you deliberately made me take the blame this time.

Pei Yuanqing is also a smart person. When Li Chen said that he wanted a sword for the first time, he thought Li Chen had misheard.But now Li Chen said it again, saying that he wanted two swords, then Pei Yuanqing understood everything.

As a good subordinate, it is a basic skill to take the blame for the leader, so Pei Yuanqing can only hold his head and admit it, so he can't say much.

"Boy, I have tolerated you for a long time."

"When you asked for a sword just now, I, Old Xu, ignored you. I didn't expect that you would go so far as to want another sword from my King Wei."

"Boy, do you want to practice?" At this time, Xu Chu couldn't sit still anymore, and pointed to Pei Yuanqing.

Did Pei Yuanqing speak?In fact, Xu Chu didn't hear clearly either.It wasn't just Li Chen who was talking to Cao Cao just now, these people at the banquet were all talking in private, and with the sound of drinking, the sound was actually a bit noisy.

Xu Chu didn't hear what Pei Yuanqing said or not at all, but Xu Chu thought to himself, Li Chen is the King of Qin, and Pei Yuanqing is his subordinate.If Pei Yuanqing hadn't asked for the sword, Li Chen certainly wouldn't have wronged his subordinates.From this point of view, then Pei Yuanqing must have said it.

Pei Yuanqing said in his heart, I'm so fucking wronged, I'm more wronged than Dou E.

Li Chen threw the blame on Pei Yuanqing, but Pei Yuanqing didn't dare to say anything.But for Xu Chu, Pei Yuanqing was not used to him.

"Lian Lian, is you enough? Don't talk about you, you and the black guy next to you are together, are you two enough?" Pei Yuanqing said contemptuously.

At this moment, looking at Pei Yuanqing's eyes, he almost didn't say that when it comes to martial arts, except for Yuwen Chengdu, everyone here is rubbish.

Pei Yuanqing fought against Cao Ying's people, during the battle of Xiaopei.When Cao Jun was about to break through Xiaopei, it was Pei Yuanqing who singled out several generals from Cao Ying.Not to mention Xiahou Dun was almost killed with a hammer, Dian Wei's iron halberd was bent within a dozen strokes, and then he monopolized several generals of the Cao army.

In Pei Yuanqing's view, the martial arts of generals like Cao Jun are very rare and ordinary.Not to mention that martial arts are mediocre, even this strength is not considered great.

When Xu Chu said that he wanted to practice with Pei Yuanqing, he was also angry for a while.He also knew, if he really practiced.Together with Dian Wei, he may not be able to beat Pei Yuanqing, let alone a more powerful Yuwen Chengdu.

Pei Yuanqing's words suppressed Xu Chu's arrogance. His imposing appearance made Xu Chu feel very uncomfortable.

On this side, Cao Cao was also troubled.To be honest, he didn't want to give the Yitian Sword.But today, it seems that if the Yitian Sword is not given, I'm afraid it will be difficult to push down later.

Cao Cao gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and comforted himself in his heart, he only gained if he gave up, and he only temporarily stored the Yitian Sword with Li Chen.One day sooner or later, Yitian Sword will be brought back, along with everything that belongs to Li Chen.

Cao Cao thought in his heart, you want my sword today, and when I find a chance, everything about you must be mine.

Cao Cao is not an indecisive person, since he has made up his mind.Immediately, he took the Yitian Sword from Xia Houen's back and handed it to Li Chen.

Hey, Li Chen is a man who refuses without understanding.Cao Cao handed the Yitian Sword to Li Chen. If Li Chen didn't want it, wouldn't it be a refusal of Cao Cao's face.Therefore, in order not to embarrass Cao Cao, Li Chen could only keep the Yitian Sword.

The Yitian sword is different from the Qingzhi sword. The Qingzhi sword is a weapon for killing, while the Yitian sword is a weapon for suppression.Holding the Yitian Sword in your hand, you have a feeling of holding the world in your hand.

"Brother Cao, as the saying goes, a sword matches a hero. Today, Brother Cao gave me two swords one after another. Could it be that in the eyes of Brother Cao, I, Li Chen, am a hero among heroes?" Li Chen asked seriously.

"That's right, that's right, that's right." Cao Cao smiled at this moment, and he had already scolded Li Chen for being shameless in his heart.

Cao Cao said in his heart, you are the hero of heroes, you are the one who takes the bamboo shoots, you are the only one who returns the hero of heroes, you are so fucking shameless.

Also a hero, I bought a watch last year, bah, shameless.

Chapter 236 Selling Grain at Half Price

As the saying goes, people have to bow their heads under the eaves.Even a prince like Cao Cao must bow his head sometimes.

Not to mention Cao Cao's two swords were stolen by Li Chen, Cao Cao had no choice but to flatter Li Chen.This broke Cao Cao's response, Cao Cao's heart, good boy, you are really damaged, you are completely damaged.

At this time, what Cao Cao should be most grateful for? What Cao Cao should be most grateful for is that Li Chen is still a fastidious person.

After Li Chen asked for Cao Cao's sword, he fiddled with the handles of the two swords for a while, then handed the two swords to Pei Yuanqing and said, "You want these two swords, so you can keep them."

Come on, Li Chen actually appointed Pei Yuanqing as an official of a boy with a sword on the spot.Xia Houen is Cao Cao's sword-carrying boy, but he, the sword-carrying boy, doesn't have a sword now, and I'm afraid he will be Cao Cao's blowing flute boy from now on.

Li Chen gave these two swords to Pei Yuanqing, and said, you want this sword, so you can keep it.Pei Yuanqing thought to himself, when will I want a sword, His Highness King Qin, you don't need to bring such a thing when you wrong someone.

Pei Yuanqing felt wronged, but he had nothing to do.As a good subordinate, it is a basic skill to take the blame for the leader.At this time, Pei Yuanqing could only bite the bullet and take the blame for Cao Cao.

Although a sword matches a hero, Li Chen doesn't know martial arts, and he doesn't like this sword very much.But why did Li Chen insist on Cao Cao's two swords?The main reason is that since Cao Cao asked him to help.

Although it was in the best interest to help Cao Cao survive, Li Chen had to make Cao Cao pay something, otherwise he always felt a little uncomfortable.

In this case, it is like going to the street to buy clothes.After the merchant quotes a price, even though you think the price is not expensive.But for some reason, I still want to bargain with the merchant.If the price cannot be negotiated, then let him send a pair of socks. щênχυêóм

In troubled times, interests come first, and everything must give way to interests. Only with this kind of temperament can Li Chen become the one who finally dominates the world.

Now, what is worthy of Cao Cao's rejoicing is that Li Chen is a person who keeps his word.Although Li Chen blackmailed him with two swords, Li Chen did plan to help.

Many forces besieged Cao Cao. This was a battle for power in the Central Plains.Undoubtedly, it was the Yuan brothers who were four generations and three princes who took the lead in this matter.Not to mention anything else, but one thing is beyond doubt.That is, in this era, there is absolutely no problem with the appeal of the name Four Generations and Three Dukes.

With a wave of Yuan Shao's arms, all the heroes in the world besieged Cao Cao. This was to kick Cao Cao, the biggest threat, off the chessboard.This Great War in the Central Plains is undoubtedly a protracted war. After this war is over, no matter who wins or loses, it will weaken the combat power of many forces.

Li Chen looked at Cao Cao, and then slowly said to Cao Cao: "Brother Cao, to tell you the truth, I am preparing to use troops against Soochow. I really can't give you this kind of military support. Of course, apart from the military strength Besides support, if you have any other requirements, just ask."

As soon as Li Chen said this, Cao Cao's expression changed involuntarily.Cao Cao said in his heart, I gave you both swords, but you told me that you couldn't support me in terms of military strength.You can support me in other places, damn it, you can't support me in terms of strength.What's the use of supporting me in other places, I need your support in other places, I want you to support me in giving birth?

Cao Cao's face changed, and Guo Jia saw the change of his own King Wei's face, and thought, King Wei, don't offend Li Chen at this time.After all, Li Chen didn't participate in the plan to deal with them, which is considered good news.At this time, Li Chen must not be offended.

Thinking of this, Guo Jia hurriedly asked Cao Cao before he could speak: "His Royal Highness, if we need food support, it is feasible."

In ancient times, when marching and fighting, the most important thing was that the three armies did not move, and the food and grass went first.For an army, the most important thing is strength and food.Sometimes, this food and grass are even more important than military strength.

From ancient times to the present, there are countless examples of military battles where the less wins the more and the weak wins the strong.But likewise, there are too many examples of military battles that are defeated due to insufficient food and grass.Too many wars that could have been won were lost to food shortages.

It was also because of this that after hearing that Li Chen was unwilling to support in terms of military strength, Guo Jia asked if he could support in terms of food and grass.

When Guo Jia mentioned grain and grass, he happened to be talking about Li Chen's heart, and Li Chen was going to support Cao Cao on grain and grass.Sweet potatoes and potatoes in Xuzhou have been planted several times, although they have been absorbing refugees.

However, due to the large output of potatoes and sweet potatoes, despite the consumption of refugees, the major warehouses in Xuzhou are now in a state of full warehouses.Now Li Chen doesn't have many other things, the only thing is that there is a lot of food.

"Yes, we can provide you with food and grass." Li Chen nodded to Guo Jia in response.

Hearing Li Chen's words, Guo Jia and Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief.Li Chen is willing to support in food and grass, which is a good thing anyway.
