Chapter 300: A Historic Meeting

At Hangu Pass, Wu Shunhe looked at the camp in the distance with comfort.

"Just look like this, the scenery is pretty good, it's a pity..."

Wu Shun suddenly felt aroused, and Xu Shu next to him also smiled and said, "Lord, although the scenery is good, but the strength is not enough, it is ultimately illusory."

"Yuanzhi, we have Hangu lock in hand, and Cao Cao is in a dilemma. This time he will give him a way out and a way out."

If the stalemate continues, it will be good for anyone. Yuan Shao, the strongest in the world, watched coldly from the side. No matter how much Wu Shun and Cao Cao make trouble, they would not dare to let go.

If you don’t do your best, no one can do anything to anyone!

"The current situation is so much."

Xu Shu nodded and replied. Yizhou has not accumulated enough. Through this dispatch of troops to Chang'an, we can see that there are still shortcomings in the Wuling army. The strength is not enough to do whatever it wants!

According to the plan, Yizhou will restore its strength and expand to the north, and there is no intention of becoming an enemy of the princes in the world.

Unfortunately, Cao Cao was too alert and actually persuaded other princes to come and siege.

"I'll talk to Cao Cao tomorrow. His suspicious personality should be changed."

Cao Cao has strong abilities, and he can be said to be very capable and powerful, and he has many counselors!

In contrast, Wu Shun commanded a great commander in Yizhou with only a few generals and only three advisers. When he really fought, he still seemed to be in a short position!

Because of Wu Shun's invitation, Cao Cao had many speculations. Until late at night, he was still thinking about the reason why Wu Shun saw him.

"Zixuan, I, Cao Cao, can see countless people on weekdays, but I just can't see through you. Well, I will know what you think tomorrow."

Unexpectedly, I couldn't guess it thoroughly, Cao Cao simply gave up and asked in person tomorrow. With their friendship, Wu Shun would not hide it from him.

The next morning, Cao's army was ready to go early. Although Cao Cao went to meet Wu Shun, he could not weaken his momentum.

When Cao Cao led his troops to Hangu Pass, the Wuling Army was already standing in front of the pass. There was a temporary grass pavilion in front of him, and Wu Shun was pouring himself in it.

"Brother Meng De, you're late!"

Seeing Cao Cao coming late, Wu Shun glanced at him and drank on his own.

"Hahaha, don't blame Zixuan."

Seeing that there was only one guard standing behind Wu Shun, Cao Cao thought about it and asked Dian Wei to follow him. With Dian Wei's guard, Cao Cao was more at ease.

"Brother Meng De, please sit down!"

Wu Shun called out, and then poured wine for Cao Cao.

"Isn't Zixuan just asking me Cao Cao to drink today, right?"

Cao Cao picked up the wine cup and drank it all, showing his heroic spirit.

Wu Shun admires such a person, and he is not worried about making small moves in the drinks.

"Oh, let's just say that Brother Meng De of Hangu Pass is sure to break through?" Wu Shun went straight to the point and went straight to the point.

"No, since Zixuan, you arrived at Hangu Pass, I have no hope of breaking through!" Cao Cao said the truth.

Not to mention the defenders in the pass, just Wu Shun's personal guard camp made Cao Cao come to fear. The fierce fighting a few days ago made Cao Cao unable to forget the powerful cavalry.

"Since that's the case, why not retreat? If you continue to waste it, it will not be a good thing for Brother Meng De."

Wu Shun was going to shake hands with Cao Cao today. If he would not give in to Hangu Pass, then Cao Cao would have to withdraw his troops.

"Zixuan is so sure that I will choose to withdraw my troops? Hangu Guangu is scattered, so I am afraid that Yizhou will not be able to afford it, right?"

What kind of person is Cao Cao? He actually guessed what Wu Shun meant. Cao Cao would definitely retreat. But since Wu Shun proposed it first, he wanted to make some money back.

If the coalition of princes cannot do anything to the Wuling Army and finally retreat in shame, it will be laughed at by the people of the world.

To a certain extent, Cao Cao represents the Han Dynasty, and the only remaining majesty of the Han Dynasty.

"My original intention of taking Chang'an was not to be enemies with the princes, nor to be enemies with Brother Meng De. Suddenly, the coalition of princes came to attack, and I was caught off guard. Fortunately, the soldiers under my command used their lives to defend Hangu Pass and protect Guanzhong. Taking the Guanzhong area was just to find a place for refugees to settle down. Brother Meng De's actions were a bit bigger this time."

Wu Shun talked about him, but he did not continue Cao Cao's words. Anyone with discerning eyes knew Wu Shun's intention to take Chang'an, but he would be right to say that.

"When Zixuan got Yizhou, why did he still touch the Guanzhong area? Isn't it beautiful to leave it as a buffering place?" Cao Cao raised his wine cup and drank it all in one go.

"Haha, so, Brother Meng De is the same as me, and he doesn't want to meet him too early?" Wu Shun asked.

"Since the battle against Dong, I never thought about becoming an enemy with Zixuan, what can I do... You and I are all princes, and there will be a battle! If the land in Guanzhong had not had too much influence, I, Cao Cao, would not have sent troops!"

It feels so good to be honest. Cao Cao doesn't have to hide his worries in front of Wu Shun. He could feel that Wu Shun was also honest with him.

"Let me do this. As long as Brother Meng De retreats, I owe a favor. Whenever Brother Meng De needs it, I will pay back the favor. Let's use it as a buffer in the Luoyang area."

If everyone refuses to give in, it will definitely be inappropriate. Wu Shun wants to use a favor to exchange for Cao Cao's withdrawal. It depends on how Cao Cao decides. There is no danger in the Luoyang area, and Cao Cao only needs to keep the passes such as Hulao.

Moreover, there were still many princes in the Central Plains, and Cao Cao's energy was mainly there. As for Chang'an, it had been swallowed up by the Wuling Army. According to Wu Shun's stingy personality, he was unwilling to vomit it out even if he was beaten to death.

"It's not impossible to retreat, now there is more than my family."

Victory is hopeless, and Cao Cao wanted to withdraw his troops, but now he has received a promise from Wu Shun, which is not bad.

What Cao Cao wanted was actually just an excuse. All the princes cherished their face.

Few princes would do whatever they wanted, just like Wu Shun, regardless of their face.

"If Cao's army retreats, Sun Ce from Jiangdong will naturally retreat. If there is one left Lu Bu who does not retreat, I am willing to solve this problem in advance for Brother Meng De and regard it as a favor!"

If Cao Cao and Sun Ce withdrew their troops, Lu Bu would not retreat. Wu Shun would find a way to deal with Lu Bu severely, causing his strength to be greatly damaged, and then eroded by the princes of the Central Plains.

"Hahahaha, Zixuan is quick to speak! Happy!"

"So, Brother Meng De agreed?"

Wu Shun said with a smile.

"Oh, Zixuan, the little movements you made behind your back can't hide from me. Yuan Shao was ready to move and had to retreat. Liu Biao was also defeated, forgot, Zixuan won this time."

Wu Shun sent people to contact Yuan Shao, saying that the main forces of the princes of the Central Plains gathered in Hangu Pass and that Yuan's army could go south in large numbers.

The left-behind Cao army has already gained the trend of Yuan’s army. If Cao Cao does not go back to defend, once Yuan Shao goes south, it will be destroyed.

This is the reason why Cao Cao was determined to withdraw his troops!

Compared with that, Wu Shun's threat is far less than Yuan Shao.

"Twenty thousand elite troops of my Suzaku Legion were dispersed. Who should I ask for to reason..."

Cao Cao said he had won, and Wu Shun was speechless in his heart. Not counting ordinary legions, his Vermilion Bird Legion only had a few thousand people left, and Dongfang Qiang still couldn't let go.

The two met, and the ended up with Wu Shun owing favors and Cao Cao agreed to withdraw his troops.

After Cao Cao returned to the camp, he sent someone to notify Lu Bu and Sun Ce, and explained in detail the current situation and the abnormal movements of Yuan Shao, Hebei.

"Cao Mengde! It's you who united, and it's you who want to withdraw your troops! Why don't we attack with many soldiers and generals?"

Lu Bu is very unresolved. His Diao Chan is still in Chengdu. How can he retreat?

"Fengxian, there are cavalry in Hangu Pass, and it is impossible to attack forcefully. Besides, the Western Liang army has retreated, Liu Biao has been defeated, and the coalition forces have no advantage. Let's retreat!"

Cao Cao made up his mind to withdraw his troops, and the reason was explained very clearly.

"I agree to withdraw!"

Sun Ce said that he didn't want to fight Wu Shun at all, and he was very happy to withdraw his troops.

"If you want to retreat, you will retreat, I will not retreat!"

Lu Bu was very angry. Such a slight alliance of princes is really helpless. For the sake of his true love, Lu Bu wants to fight Wu Shun again!
