As for helping Cao Cao, the main reason is to get rid of the burden of Xiandi, and gain some fame from it by the way.It is also beneficial for Yangzhou to help Cao Cao.
What's more, now Dong Zhuo's wealth has brought Yangzhou to a higher level.
Yan Xiang signaled Yuan Shu to accept Liu Ke's conditions, and Yuan Shu nodded, as he accepted the big cake.
Without the intervention of Cao Cao and Sun Ce in Yuzhou, wouldn't it be easy to catch?
Both parties are very satisfied, but the expected big cake is not very direct, and they have to work hard to get it.
"About Cao Cao's army, what do you want to say?" Liu Ke asked suddenly, knowing some information.
"Cao Cao's army is nothing more than that, but the new army is more difficult to deal with." Yuan Shu said, since he has defended Runan, he can pretend to be forced.
Liu Ke didn't expose it either.
The equipment of the new army was provided by Yangzhou, or it was eliminated.For Liu Ke, it is dispensable, but for the princes, it is an absolute magic weapon.
Cao Cao's desire to defeat Yangzhou through the new army is tantamount to a dream.
Liu Ke asked a few more questions, Yuan Shu looked confused, but Yan Xiang answered in an orderly manner.
He immediately confirmed a few things. First, Cao Cao's army had enough food and grass;
For Liu Ke, it was all bad news.
Chapter 280 Eighth Cao Cao's Appointment
War is never easy.
Cao Cao has been waiting for Liu Ke's arrival, and he did not disappoint him.
"Liu Dingfang is still the same as before, displaying the speed of soldiers to the fullest. Facing such an opponent, our chances of winning are less than [-]%." Cao Cao said.
This sentence caused an uproar in an instant.
"My lord, no matter how strong the Marquis of Dongyang is, as long as we are united, there may not be no chance." Xiahou Dun said.
"Yes, my lord, we are in awe of Dongyanghou, and at the same time every enemy. Dongyanghou is just one of our enemies now, and we will face more enemies in the future." Xiahouyuan said.
After listening to the second general's speech, Cao Cao burst out laughing and said, "It's my honor to have you here, and it increases my chance of winning by [-]%."
Only then did Xi Zhicai feel relieved. It turned out that the protagonist didn't lack fighting spirit, but inspired the whole army through this method.
After all, Dongyang Hou put so much pressure on them that everyone was in a trance.Especially when the scouts came to report that Dongyang Hou had led the main force to Runan.
Runan is their sad place, and Yuan Shu's talent is mediocre. This time, his extraordinary performance is really impressive.
"I want to meet the Marquis of Dongyang, what do you guys think?" Cao Cao said.
"My lord, no!" Xi Zhicai blurted out.
"Why not?" Cao Cao asked back.
Of course it is... Cao Cao's army attacked Yangzhou, which was an unjust act. Isn't it boring for the two sides to meet?
Shame is likely to be suffered.
The master humiliated his ministers to death, so Xi Zhi didn't want Cao Cao to go.
Xi Zhicai explained it seriously, but Cao Cao didn't listen.
"Who is the Marquis of Dongyang who is not alarmed by the collapse of Mount Tai?" Cao Cao said.
The general trend of the world is like this, how could the Marquis of Dongyang be confused.The strength of Yangzhou blocked the way of the princes.
"Since the lord insists on this, then I will arrange it." Xi Zhicai said.
"Okay, but let's build a high platform first. I want to meet the Marquis of Dongyang on the high platform." Cao Cao said.
Xi Zhicai soon understood, wouldn't it be fun for everyone to chat and laugh happily on the high platform.
Three days later, the high platform was built, in the middle of the camps of the two armies.
Cao Cao's letter was also delivered to Liu Ke.
Liu Ke was not interested in Cao Cao's invitation.
"What do you think?" Liu Ke asked.
"I'm afraid Cao Mengde knew that he was invincible and played tricks, so my lord should not go!" Tai Shi said kindly.
If Liu Ke is assassinated, the bright future of the entire Yangzhou will be ruined.Liu Ke is the backbone of Yangzhou, how can he take risks so easily?
Such was the case with some generals, who did not die in battle, but lost their lives and intrigues.
"Ziyi is right, brother, think twice, is it possible that you will surrender directly after going to Cao Cao?" Dian Wei also persuaded.
But Liu Ye objected, saying: "Cao Cao's letter said that he will ask for an imperial decree. If my lord doesn't go, I'm afraid I'll leave something behind."
"You want your brother to take risks?" Dian Wei asked with a straight face.
"No, even if we go, there must be a perfect plan. It is best to hold the location in our hands." Liu Ye said.
For this point, Dian Wei very much agrees, his guard battalion is to protect Liu Ke.
If he could send troops there, Dian Wei believed that he could provide all-round protection.Liu Ke's skill is very good, ordinary assassination will not work against him at all.
"Go, go, on the high platform, in front of the two armies, drinking and having fun is also a joy in life." Guo Jia laughed.
