At that time, the second anti-Yangzhou alliance will be established.

"Chang'an can't do it, and Yangzhou can't do it either. Then change to another place. How about Yuzhou?" Xu Shu suggested.

Indeed, Yuzhou is also close to Yangzhou. Moreover, Yuzhou is a mixed bag and does not belong to a single faction.

"Yuzhou is not bad, but there are no heavyweight cities in Yuzhou." Liu Ke was thinking.

Are you going to Wancheng?

Zhang Xiu definitely couldn't refuse, and welcomed him along the way.But why did Liu Ke make wedding dresses for others?Zhang Xiu, as the host, must have stole the limelight.

"How about Xuchang?" Guo Jia asked.

Xuchang belongs to Yingchuan County, and Guo Jia is from Yingchuan County, so he is familiar with it.

However, Yingchuan County is now under the control of Cao Cao.

"Is it too risky?" Lu Su asked.

"Compared to Chang'an, Xuchang is already very good. After all, the host of this autumn hunting is Cao Cao, and he will contribute more in his territory." Guo Jia said.

Now Xuchang is just a small county, not particularly prosperous.

"Then Xuchang." Liu Ke said.

It seems that there is no need to ask Cao Cao's opinion at all...

Liu Ke handed over the job of persuading Zhong Yao to Guo Jia.

I don't know what Guo Jia said, but the first time we talked, Zhong Yao was dealt with.

Zhong Yao went directly back to Chang'an to report to Cao Cao.

"Why is the Marquis of Dongyang so active in promoting this matter?" Cao Cao asked in surprise.

"I heard that the Marquis of Dongyang is going to promote his ideas during the autumn hunting." Zhong Yao said.

"Is there no specific information?" Cao Cao asked.

"No... the officials in Yangzhou are united, and the lower officials don't have enough time to inquire about this matter." Zhong Yao said.

Is it to let everyone recognize the hegemony of Yangzhou?

Cao Cao was in doubt for a moment.

"No matter what Dongyang Hou wants to do, this matter is beneficial to us."

The location is in Xuchang, and no matter what Dongyang Hou does, he has to tie his hands and feet.

"It's just that the Marquis of Dongyang also proposed a condition." Zhong Yao's tone sank.

"What conditions?" Cao Cao asked.

"The princes can lead troops to Xuchang." Zhong Yao said.

"Confused, how can you agree to such a condition?" Cao Cao said angrily, who doesn't know that the Yangzhou Army is number one in the world?

In this way, it is better to hold the autumn hunting directly in Yangzhou, so that you can rest assured!

But after thinking about it, Cao Cao understood, without military protection, who would dare to go deep into the enemy camp?

"My lord, this matter is actually very easy." Zhong Yao said with confidence, and had already made a record in his heart.

"Tell me about it," Cao Cao said.

"The princes lead too many troops, isn't it chaotic? Therefore, as the host, we can restrain the troops of the princes." Zhong Yao said.

Cao Cao suddenly realized.

"For example, we sent [-] troops to protect His Majesty to participate in the autumn hunting. The Marquis of Dongyang has a special status and can lead [-] troops, and so on." Zhong Yao further explained.

In this way, as long as Dongyang Hou is persuaded, the matter will be settled.

Cao Cao thought for a while, and an army of [-] should be able to hold the field, so he agreed to this plan.

Soon after, Liu Ke received a new invitation from Cao Cao. The location of the autumn hunting was changed to Xuchang, but the number of troops led was reduced to 1, while other princes led troops ranging from [-] to [-].

"This Cao Mengde is indeed a genius." Liu Ke said with a smile.

"My lord, we should fight for it again. No matter what, we have to send [-] troops." Guo Jia said.

"No need, this matter is very easy to solve." Liu Ke said.

Runan is very close to Xuchang, Yuan Shu will directly send [-] troops to the border, and Liu Ke will use another way to station [-] troops in Runan.

Let's see whose abacus is louder!

There are 15 troops in Xuchang, and [-] troops stationed nearby. I hope Cao Cao will not be scared.

As for Yuan Shu, he will definitely give this face. After all, he also wants to participate in the autumn hunting. With the army from Yangzhou, he himself is safe.

So Liu Ke was the first to stand up to respond to Cao Cao's call, obey the imperial decree, and went to Xuchang on time to participate in the autumn hunting.

After the princes got the news, they had to consider their position again.

Liu is the eldest brother, and Cao Cao is the second brother. The eldest and second child hold a party, will you go?

If you don't go, won't you be missed?
