Liu Cang is not too fond of Zhuge Liang. This does not mean that Liu Cang underestimates Zhuge Liang. Although Brother Bei and Boss Cao are still fighting to death in Xuzhou, they have at least nominally expressed their submission and attachment to him. Lan

Emperor Liu Xie's presence has become increasingly weak in recent years, and Cao Cao's payment of finances and taxes to Luoyang is a hint of support for Liu Cang's claim to the throne.

Let's not talk about Liu Cang's specific intentions in this regard. The huge world always needs someone to govern. With Boss Cao and Brother Bei here, Zhuge Liang will join one party sooner or later. Regardless of who is ordered, he will always have to govern the land and work.

As for the character of Boss Cao and Brother Bei Bei?

This is not within the scope of Liu Cang's consideration. Liu Cang has already used poisonous warriors, bandits, Xiliang tyrants, Yangzhou Baiyue, Jiaozhou Yi people, etc.

If you don't even dare to accept the attachment of Boss Cao and Brother Bei Bei, you might as well find a mountain cat to go in and cultivate immortality.

The attachment between Cao Cao and Liu Bei can be regarded as dragging his family and his team to join the gang. The so-called attachment does not mean becoming Liu Cang's disciple. It is more like a cooperative relationship with superiors and subordinates.

Unlike other people under Liu Cang's command, the fight between the two in Xuzhou happened before they joined the gang. Before the fight in Xuzhou came to an end, Liu Cang couldn't care less.

As for recent times, Cao Cao and Liu Bei are very inclined to have peace talks.

But it was Roxana who was packing up her belongings in Liaodong, and seemed to appoint Gongsun Zan as a general to prepare for an expedition to rest. If Gongsun Zan left, Liu Bei would feel a little helpless.

The big man is still in a mess, and Liu Cang actually doesn't support Roxana going to Anxi to kill her now.

But not to mention Roxana's obsession with the 'King of Kings'. This woman raised her own troops, trained her own troops, recruited her own generals, and created such a formation all the way. Liu Cang simply ignored her efforts.

Roxana's departure will naturally have a direct impact on Yuan Shao's hope of taking control of Youzhou and Jizhou in one fell swoop. Without Roxana and Gongsun Zan, Qingzhou will fall into Yuan Shao's hands in a matter of minutes.

The result of this is that Brother Bei, who is squatting in Xuzhou, is miserable again.

Yuan Shao is not a fuel-efficient person, but he will definitely maintain a good relationship with Cao Cao before he unifies the north, or pushes Xuzhou away.

Naturally, Cao Cao also understood that he was now leading the civil and military forces and Liu Cang, who was attached to the two states. If the two states could not be saved in the future and Liu Cang needed to intervene, then his value would definitely plummet in front of Liu Cang.

Liu Bei was afraid that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao would push Xuzhou together, and Cao Cao was afraid that Yuan Shao would "turn back and take out the money and come to Yanzhou and Yuzhou."

Before Roxana and Gongsun Zan left Liaodong, Liu Bei and Cao Cao had already talked several times before the battle. The original battle on the battlefield seemed to be turning into a war of words.

Both parties have a tacit understanding: they are here, so if you can make a fool of yourself, don't do it randomly.

"Liu Shijun, if you want to talk about it, Xuzhou has been mostly ruled by Ming Gong. Now you only occupy the land of two counties, which has hurt the peace between the two families. Why don't you give up Xuzhou, and Ming Gong will take over the area from Xiangcheng to Xiangcheng.

Is it good for you to cede the two counties and six lands to the envoy?"

【In view of the general environment,

Outside Pengcheng, in front of the two armies, Cao Cao and Liu Bei gathered together again. They were accompanied by civil and military personnel. Guo Jia looked at Liu Bei and addressed him as Zhou Mu with a respectful tone.

…

"You also call me brother envoy. You invaded Xuzhou and gave it back two counties and six territories. Doesn't Runan count? Why don't you give Runan to us too!?" Zhang Fei shouted dissatisfied.

"Haha, General Zhang is joking." Guo Jia said with a smile.

"Who are you kidding?" Zhang Fei glared and saw Xiahou Dun behind Cao Cao glaring back, wanting to start a conflict.

"Ahem~" Jia Xu coughed dryly. Many people on both sides snorted, but the rough guys stopped staring at each other.

Well, Jia Xu, Cao Cao, and Liu Bei were interested in peace talks, and Jia Xu was sent by Liu Cang to be the interlocutor to ensure that the two sides did not engage in dirty tricks while talking.

Cao Cao's army has strong soldiers and horses, and the flags in the army are flying like waves.

As for Liu Bei, his military strength was incomparable to that of Cao Cao. The Chen family and the Mi family, who had temporarily put aside their prejudices, were in charge of the military affairs in the city.

Around Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, the Lousang tribe, Zhao Yun, Yan Gang, Tian Yu and other former subordinates of Gongsun Zan gathered together more than 20 powerful generals. Facing Cao Cao's thousands of troops, they also looked at each other with raised eyebrows.

Weak momentum.

"Alas~ I have talked with General Cao several times. The Jingzhou River leads directly to Jingzhou. The waterway is smooth and sailing can be done. It is really a troubled place." Jian Yong beside Liu Bei sighed, with a look of distress on his face.

"Oh? Then I wonder where Xuande wants to go?" Guo Jia wanted to argue, but Cao Cao raised his hand to stop him and asked Liu Bei.

"Mr. Wenhe, I don't know the direction of Bingzhou. Does Your Highness have any arrangements?" Liu Bei nodded to Cao Cao first and then asked about Jia Xu. Cao Cao's eyes flashed with thought.

Liu Bei wants to annex the state? The governance of Yanzhou and Yuzhou is not a temporary matter. Cao Cao has no intention of annexing the state. If it is a favor, Cao Cao would not mind helping Liu Bei speak in this regard.

"Bingzhou should be ruled by General Huangfu, not to mention General Fu Xie who has been on duty in the north for many years and has made great achievements through hard work.

"Jia Xu shook his head, and Liu Bei looked disappointed.

Obviously, although Liu Cang has not yet taken action against Bingzhou, he has already made plans there. Fu Xie and Huangfu Song are experienced and senior, and Cao Cao wisely stopped interfering in this matter.

"Alas, Xuzhou is in such trouble. The people really shouldn't suffer from war disasters again." Liu Bei looked miserable, and Cao Cao's eyes twitched.

What does this guy mean?

"Meng De, Bei also knows that all you and I are concerned about are Yuan Shao." Liu Bei said again, Cao Cao frowned and quietly glanced at Jia Xu.

Jia Xu's calm expression showed no emotion. Cao Cao was unsure of Liu Bei's approach and remained silent.

"You and I are fighting for two harms, and we are fighting for two benefits. Meng De is so talented. Originally, even if you and I were to join forces, I would still be willing to obey Meng De's orders." Liu Bei sighed, his eyes moist.

"Xuande is too modest." Cao Cao looked sincere and cursed secretly in his heart, I believe you are a ghost.

"It's a pity that all the brothers have been with Bei for many years and have never left him. If he can't find an explanation for his brothers, Bei will be in vain." Tears fell from the corners of Liu Bei's eyes.

"Brother/Lord." The generals around Liu Bei were moved and comforted.

Cao Cao twitched the corner of his mouth, gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and his eyes became moist.

Madhu, even if you are cruel, I will come too.

"Xuande~~Xuande is suffering~. The Han Dynasty is in chaos. A certain Cao Mengde vowed to quell the rebellion and restore the Han Dynasty. He will not let a hero like Xuande suffer anymore." Cao Cao cried out sadly and beat his chest.

"Ming Gong~" the generals around Cao Cao responded.

‘.

Seeing the two groups crying together, Jia Xu's calm expression became a little unbearable, and the corners of his eyes twitched.

…

You guys are really good at this.

This is right, this is how the legendary princes should behave.

Can.

But our protagonist usually draws his sword when encountering this kind of situation. A certain Jia Wenhe has not experienced such a battle for many years, so he seems a little unable to withstand it.

Liu Bei started the wrangling mode, and Cao Cao seemed to be a good player as well. The two of them went back and forth, and both sides were comforted in various ways.

To the south and north, to the ends of the earth, the sky is falling apart.

I have been talking for a long time but I am not getting to the point. Come on, who is afraid of whom?

In short, Cao Cao wanted Liu Bei to move, and Liu Bei was rambling on, waiting for Cao Cao to speak first.

Liu Bei refused to tell the truth, and Cao Cao responded in various ways. If you don't say it, I won't say it either. At worst, we'll fight to see who can defeat him first.

No matter what, Cao Mengde is no weaker than others!

Both parties were slapping each other in various ways, but Jia Xu didn't say a word, but his mouth felt dry.

Jia Xu resisted the urge to draw his sword to speed up the process. Seeing that Cao Cao was safe, Liu Bei finally sighed and spoke.

"Bei has little talent and little knowledge. He has been doing nothing for many years. Thanks to the help of brothers from various families, he is able to get to where he is today. All brothers from all families are dedicated to serving the people, and Bei does not dare to forget that lightly."

Looking around, Liu Bei looked at Cao Cao, whose lips were dry and his eyes were filled with tears, and he sighed in his heart: "This Cao Mengde is really amazing."

"Zhongmou, Chenliu, and Changshe suffered greatly from the Yellow Turbans in their early years, and they want to imitate His Highness and develop people's livelihood there. I wonder what Meng De wants?" Liu Bei asked Cao Cao.

"Huh?" Cao Cao questioned, but he understood in an instant.

These places are not peaceful places. Liu Bei's foundation is much worse than him. How to govern the people? He probably wants to make meritorious deeds, right?
