    Yang Xiu brought Zhang Song here.  */*Cao Cao laughed and pointed at the fifty thousand tiger guards.

    "Zhang Ziqiao, have you ever seen such a tiger or wolf master in Sichuan?"

    Zhang Song calmed down a bit and said in a condensed voice.

    "I have never seen such a majestic military revolution in Shu, and the prime minister's military power is endless. I am really in awe of him. But my lord leads the army with benevolence and righteousness. The soldiers feel his virtue and are willing to fight at the sacrifice. No matter how elite the tiger division is, he will  Dare to fight with it!"

    Hearing this, Cao Cao's expression changed, and his pair of infinitely bright eyes narrowed, and he looked at Zhang Song without knowing whether he was happy or angry.  Zhang Song showed no fear at all and looked at each other openly.  Yang Xiufen hinted at Zhang Song with his eyes.  Zhang Song turned a blind eye and remained so.  Cao Cao raised the corners of his mouth slightly, waved his big hand, and exuded a convincing and awe-inspiring aura, and drank loudly.

    "I regard the rats in the world as nothing but grass and mustard ears. Wherever my army goes, we will fight and attack. Those who obey me will live, and those who go against me will die. Zhang Ziqiao, do you know this?!!!"

    As soon as Cao Cao said this, Yang Xiu's complexion suddenly changed, thinking that Cao Cao wanted to punish Zhang Song severely because of his anger, which was not a good idea.  Zhang Song was certain in his heart that the time had finally arrived.

    Zhang Song arched his hands, bowed and said in a solemn voice.

    "That's not necessarily true! As Ru Song knows, there is only one soldier in the world who can stop the Prime Minister's army!"

    When Cao Cao heard this, he narrowed his eyes even more tightly, and his eyes were so sharp that they could pierce the heaven and the earth.

    "who!?"

    "The champion Hou Wen is extraordinary, he organizes the army strictly, and his army is majestic and brave. Since his inception, he has defeated Dong Zhuo with the Yellow Turbans, killed the Qiang and Hu in Ping Bingzhou, eliminated the rebellious minister Li Cui, and killed the general Wang Lu Fengxian. Han Sui and Ma Teng of Xiliang both  He was defeated in every battle. His subordinates Guan, Zhao, Zhang, and Pang were fierce, and they were able to defeat every attack. He also had generals like Xu and Gao who were good at fighting and deploying.  One is worth ten elite soldiers and horses, and he can stop the Prime Minister's army!"

    Zhang Song speaks sharply, his mouth is as fast as lightning, and he talks quickly.  Cao Cao's complexion changed after hearing this, and his chest heaved up and down. Cao Cao's brothers Xiahou, Yu Jin, Yue Jin, and Li Dian all around him had angry faces and wanted to scold Zhang Song.

    At this moment, Cao Cao's expression changed and he laughed.

    "Hahahahahaha!!!! Okay! Okay! Okay! Zhang Ziqiao's words are like a wake-up call. If it weren't for you, I would have thought that my soldiers and horses are invincible. If I have this mentality, I will face the extraordinary soldiers and horses above.  There¡¯s no way to be invincible!¡±

    When Xiahou Dun heard this, he immediately shouted angrily and drank.

    "Why should the Prime Minister destroy his own prestige by letting others have ambitions? As long as the Prime Minister gives me an order and gives me 50,000 soldiers and horses, I can march through the northwest, go straight to Huanglong, and make Na Wen Bufan bow to the Prime Minister!"

    "The generals and others are also willing to accompany the army to fight, break its front, and shock the prime minister's majesty!!"

    After Xiahou Dun finished drinking, Xia Houyuan, Yu Jin, Yue Jin, and Li Dian all knelt down on one knee and shouted in unison.

    Cao Cao smiled brightly, waved his hand, and said calmly.

    "Hey! You won't be angry for a while if you succeed! Wen Bufan's soldiers and horses are really powerful. I, the Prime Minister, are always wary. After Zhang Ziqiao reminded me, if our army fights with him, the chance of winning is only between 50 and 50."

    Cao Cao rarely said such depressing words. When the generals heard this, their expressions changed and they did not react for a while.  Cao Cao then turned to look at Zhang Song and asked in a solemn voice.

    "Zhang Ziqiao, I have already guessed the purpose of your visit. Let me ask you first, how is the current war in Dongchuan? Could it be that Wen Bufan has killed the demon Zhang Gongqi to the point where he has no chance to fight back and has to put down his fight with Liu Jiyu?  Hate, send a letter asking for help from Xichuan?¡±

    Cao Cao only guessed fifty-six out of ten. He thought that Wenhan's crusade was unstoppable, and Zhang Lu was retreating steadily, so he asked for help from Xichuan.  Liu Jiyu was afraid that Dongchuan would fall into Wenhan's hands and his lips would die, so he sent Zhang Song to ask Cao Cao to come forward, recall Wenhan's troops and horses with the imperial order, and order a truce.

    Zhang Song's face darkened, and Cao Cao immediately frowned when he saw it, feeling an ominous feeling in his heart.

    "A month ago, Zhang Gongqi was defeated one after another and retreated to Jinzhu. Our Lord sent troops to rescue him, but he was able to save him. Zhang Gongqi was killed by Wen Bufan's general Zhao Zilong. Half of Dongchuan has fallen to Wen Bufan.  Subordinates. My Lord is afraid that he will become powerful and threaten the imperial court, so he is sending troops to resist and defend the remaining land in Dongchuan!

    Prime Minister, Wen Bufan has occupied the northwest, sitting on the three prefectures of Bing, Yong, and Liang as well as the land east of Hejian. I heard earlier that the Prime Minister had given up a county in Hejian.  If Wen Bufan were allowed to gain control of the entire Dongchuan, his power would be so great that even the Prime Minister would be hard-pressed to resist!  "

    When Cao Cao heard this, his face turned so dark that he almost shed tears, and he was secretly worried.

    ¡°This Wen Bufan¡¯s advance is so fast!!!¡±

    Originally, Cao Cao thought that Wenhan had fought successive battles in various places in the northwest in recent years, and most of his troops were resting and recuperating.?, the expedition to Dongchuan required up to 30,000 soldiers and horses.  However, Zhang Gongqi won the hearts of the people in Hanzhong, and he had 50,000 troops and horses available. In addition, the terrain of Dongchuan was steep, so Zhang Gongqi had the advantage of the location and defended the city.  Even if Wen Han has great ability, it will take at least one to two years to defeat Zhang Gongqi.  [ Point] But Cao Cao never expected that Wenhan actually spent half a year to kill Zhang Gongqi and occupied half of Dongchuan. If Liu Jiyu hadn't sent troops to resist, I am afraid that the entire Dongchuan would have fallen to Wenhan.  In the bag!

    Cao Cao then thought that his plan to send troops to the south of the Yangtze River had not made any progress. Not long ago, Cao Ren was defeated at the hands of Liu Bei and lost his troops and generals. The situation was very bad.

    Thinking of this, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel upset, with a complicated expression on his face.  Not only Cao Cao, but also the Xiahou brothers and other generals looked in disbelief.  Seeing that everyone knew how powerful he was, Zhang Song felt a little calm, secretly thinking that most of his mission could be completed this time.

    "What does Liu Jiyu mean by sending you here?"

    Cao Cao was shocked and asked again attentively.

    "The traitor Zhang Gongqi is now dead. I hope the Prime Minister will order Wen Bufan's troops to withdraw from Dongchuan and restore peace to Dongchuan. My lord is loyal to the court and is willing to guard Dongchuan to resist the ambitious people and prevent the expansion of their power.  !¡±

    Zhang Song bowed and bowed. After hearing this, Cao Cao did not reply immediately and pondered for a while.  After a while, Cao Cao opened his mouth and said again.

    "This matter is serious and should not be taken lightly. Please allow me, Prime Minister, to think about it for a few days before I give you an answer."

    Zhang Song did not dare to make any mistakes, so he bowed out and resigned.  Not long after Zhang Song left, Cao Cao had a strange expression on his face and murmured, looking at the 50,000 Tiger Guards below in a daze.

    At night, Cao Cao gathered his advisers in the mansion to discuss Zhang Song's affairs.  Cao Cao told everyone what happened.

    "Wen Bufan was able to kill Zhang Gongqi so quickly. There must be an expert among them to advise him. I heard that Xi Zhicai was guarding Hedong, and the newly rising Li Zhongwen was in Liangzhou. I didn't know that Wen Bufan had another chance.  Which hero will come to vote?"

    When Xun You heard this, he stood up and reported the matter.

    "I heard earlier that Tian Yuanhao, an old minister of Yuan Benchu, surrendered to this man. I also learned from Liangzhou's detailed report that Cheng Gongying also fell under this man. Both Tian Yuanhao and Cheng Gongying had the talent to help the world, and were able to navigate the world.  When Wen Bufan went to Dongchuan, most of them took these two people with him."

    Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and only said a few words of pity.

    At this time, Xun Yu stood up from the table, bowed and bowed, and said again.

    "My lord, Wen Bufan's power is unstoppable. If we get Dongchuan and rest for a year and a half, most of his troops will be recharged and ready to plot against Xichuan. Although there are many outstanding people in Shu, Liu Jiyu is mediocre and cowardly.  I am afraid that it will be difficult to defeat Wen Bufan's army. Within three years, Xichuan will fall into the hands of Wen Bufan. If Xichuan falls into the hands of this person again, he will be able to establish himself as the emperor of Dongchuan!  We must not fall into the hands of this person, otherwise there will be endless trouble!¡±

    Xun Yu explained the pros and cons. As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Yu also stood up and saluted.

    "Unexpectedly, Liu Jiyu is willing to stop Wen Bufan for his lord. If not, he will let him defend Dongchuan according to his wishes. Although Liu Jiyu is incompetent, his general Zhang Guyi has a good command of the army, uses the army like a god, and is very good at doing it.  When fighting in the army, there are rare talents, but it is a pity that they fell under Liu Jiyu's command, so that his talents were dimmed. "

    "Zhang Guyi? I once heard that this man came from the same division as Zhao Zilong and Zhang Zixiong. He was the disciple of the Penglai spear prodigy Yuanzuo. It is said that a famous teacher gives birth to a great disciple. Zhao Zilong is full of courage and invincible. There are few people in the world who can rival him.  As for Zhang Zixiong, he is also very skilled in martial arts, and he is very skilled in military formation and formation. From this, it can be seen that Zhang Guyi is by no means an ordinary person."

    Cao Cao condensed his expression and groaned.  After hearing this, Yang Xiu rushed to attend and report.

    "I once heard from Zhang Ziqiao that in the Battle of Dongchuan, Zhang Guyi defeated Wen Han's generals Zhang and Pang. Later in the Battle of Jinzhu, Zhang Guyi would not have been defeated if Zhang Gongqi had not suddenly changed his mind and harmed him.  Jinzhu.¡±

    "Oh? This is actually happening. It seems that Zhang Guyi is really a handsome guy!"

    Cao Cao's expression changed, his eyes flashed with surprise, and he sighed.

    "My lord, Zhang Guyi is in charge of Dongchuan, and Wen Bufan has not yet finished recuperating most of his troops, so he will never dare to invade Dongchuan. In this way, my lord can also take advantage of this time to send troops to Jingzhou and attack him early."  Once Jingzhou is pacified, it will be easier to conquer the Sun family in Jiangdong. As long as Jingzhou is conquered and the Sun family is annihilated, the Lord can prepare for the battle with Wen Bufan and bring peace to the world as soon as possible, so that the people of the world can live in peace and contentment!"

    Xun Yu looked solemn, and then he remonstrated.  At this time, Shen Pei, who was on one side, frowned, stood up and spoke.

    "Wen Bufan has occupied half of Dongchuan at this time and wants him to withdraw his troops."It would be that easy.  If the master insists on pressing hard, he will only get what he wants.  What's more, Guo Jijiu is still in Hejian for treatment. If Wen Bufan is angered and the Cao and Wen families are at odds, Guo Jijiu will be implicated.  "

    When Cao Cao heard this, his face tightened and he nodded.

    "What Zheng Nan said is true. I wonder what you have to teach me?"

    "Wen Bufan and Zhang Guyi are at a stalemate in Anhan, Dongchuan. The two armies have been fighting for a long time, and the soldiers are tired and hope for a truce. In my opinion, why doesn't the lord give an order to divide the two sides equally with Anhan as the boundary?  Dongchuan. There is no big harm to both parties. The Lord will only need to reward Wen Bufan's soldiers more as a token of appreciation."

    "Yes. What Zhengnan said is exactly what I want. Do you have any objections?"

    "We have no objections!"

    After hearing this, Cao Cao's solemn look faded slightly.  Then all the advisers also agreed.  Cao Cao made his decision and the seats were dispersed.  The next day, Cao Cao summoned Zhang Song to see him and told him what had been agreed upon. Zhang Song had no objection.  Cao Cao then went to the palace to see Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and asked him to issue a truce document.  Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was controlled by Cao Cao, so he dared not resist. He immediately drafted a document, pressed a memorial, and sent it to Cao Cao.

    Cao Cao then ordered Liu Ye to serve as an envoy and rush to Dongchuan with Zhang Song.  Liu Ye took the order, packed his bags, and left the city with Zhang Song overnight. They hurried on at starry night, looking straight at Dongchuan.

    Not long after Liu Ye left, Cao Cao summoned his advisers to discuss the matter of going south.  Wenhan's power expanded so quickly that Cao Cao felt a sense of urgency.

    "What a pity that the wise man returned to Liu Bei! He is fully fledged! Xinye is the gateway to Jingzhou. To capture Jingzhou, Liu Bei must be eliminated first. Do you have any strategies?"

    As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, Cheng Yu burst into laughter. It turned out that Cheng Yu was familiar with Xu Shu, so he told Cao Cao his name and deeds.  When Cao Cao heard that Xu Shu had avenged his friends when he was young and was so loyal and courageous, he was a little happy and asked Cheng Yu again.

    "How is Xu Yuanzhi's talent better than yours?"

    Cheng Yu¡¯s eyes twinkled and he spoke loudly.

    "This person is ten times more powerful than Yu!!!"

    Cao Cao was shocked when he heard this. Cheng Yu was a strict man and never lied. He valued Xu Shu so much. Xu Shu must have amazing talents.  After hearing this, Cao Cao frowned a little tighter.  This Xu Shu is so great, assisting Liu Bei, Liu Bei is like a tiger with wings, which is even more terrifying.

    "Liu Xuande, a junior from Pei County, pretends to be the emperor's uncle and has no faith at all. He is a so-called gentleman on the outside but a villain on the inside. Xu Yuanzhi is a genius in the world. Now in Xinye, he is deceived by others to help Liu Bei, the rebellious minister, betray the imperial court and stand in the way of my righteous master.  The road is like a beautiful jade falling into the mud, what a pity!¡±

    Cao Cao sighed in reply, and there was a look of deep worry in his brows.

    Cheng Yu seemed to see Cao Cao's worry and laughed.

    "Although Xu Shu is under Liu Bei's command, the prime minister wants to use him, so it is not difficult to summon him."

    "How to get this person to come back?!"

    Cao Cao's eyes widened, his face turned ecstatic, and he asked quickly.  Cheng Yu replied.

    "Xu Shu was a very filial man. He lost his father when he was young, and only his mother was present. His younger brother Xu Kang has been taking care of him. The prime minister can give Xu Kang an official position and have Xu Kang come to Luoyang and ask Xu Kang to persuade his mother to do it.  The letter summons Xu Shu to return, and Xu Shu will surely arrive!"

    "Hahaha!! This is a wonderful plan, good! Just follow Zhongde's words!"
