Wow. . . !
There was another commotion in the hall, and the eyes of the veterans who were loyal to Liu Xie were once again filled with excitement.
Everyone's heart couldn't help but be deeply moved, and a wave of enthusiasm arose.
Liu Zhang is really a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty!
The big man is not over yet, there is still a chance for everything!
Especially Liu Xie, his facial features became confused with excitement, and his proud tail almost reached the sky.
He looked at Cao Cao with his nostrils, venting his previous humiliation wantonly.
This sentence is so heartwarming, it is simply a naked warning to Cao Cao and Cao's subordinates!
Cao Cao is the leader of the Central Plains Group, so naturally he cannot allow Deng Zhi to show off his power here.
At that moment, his eyes were like daggers, directed towards Deng Zhi below.
"Deng Zheng, what do you mean?"
Cao Cao's words were cold and full of threats and intimidation.
As the Sikong of the current dynasty, Cao Mengde, who defeated Yuan Shao twice and was about to ascend to the position of the first prince in the world,
With more than 300,000 soldiers in hand, how could they be intimidated by a small Yizhou army?
The corners of Deng Zhi's mouth raised slightly, and his smile was not disrespectful, but it showed Cao Cao that he had no fear.
"Cao Sikong, General Wei specifically asked Wei Chen to tell Cao Sikong, literally!"
Damn Liu Jiyu, you are so deceptive!
Cao Cao cursed angrily in his heart, and suddenly had the idea of leading an army to attack Liu Zhang immediately.
If he endured it this time, Liu Zhang might humiliate him in the future!
Cao Cao recognized and admired Liu Zhang's abilities, but Cao Cao was not afraid.
What enemies did Liu Zhang encounter along the way?
Zhang Lu, Ren Qi, Zhao Wei, Jia Long, Barbarians, Qiang people.
They are all lowly trash!
And what about Cao Cao himself?
At the beginning it was the Million Yellow Turbans, followed by Lu Bu, Yuan Shu, Liu Bei, Zhang Xiu, and Yuan Shao!
Which one is not a hero of the world?
Cao Cao once believed that if he and Liu Zhang switched positions, Liu Zhang would not necessarily do better than him.
Cao Cao even felt that if he were the one in Yizhou, he would do much better than Liu Zhang!
Now is the time when Cangting is victorious and the morale of the three armies is at a high level. How can Cao Cao swallow this sigh of relief?
At that moment, he no longer held back and directly pointed angrily at Deng Zhi.
"Deng Bomiao, if Liu Zhang thinks that I am a traitor, he can lead his army to attack!"
"I, Sikong, have long wanted to learn Liu Zhang's clever tricks!"
Han Emperor Liu Xie and all the ministers loyal to the emperor all had a smile on their lips.
Isn't this exactly what they want to see?
When two tigers fight, one of them will be injured! Even lose-lose!
Only then will the emperor have a chance to rise!
"Cao Sikong, General Wei once said that you can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense!"
"If you speak out, you must be responsible!"
Unexpectedly, in such a tense atmosphere, Deng Zhi is still intensifying the conflict!
A doubt arose in everyone's mind.
Could it be that Liu Zhang was already ready to march eastward?
Are you here for a showdown with Cao Cao this time?
Cao Cao was filled with anger and cursed Deng Zhi for his ignorance of good and evil.
Originally, this matter would be over if both parties gave each other a step, but I didn't expect that he was still aggressive!
Even Cao Cao had the illusion that Liu Zhang was really going to invade?
Thinking of this, Cao Cao still felt a little afraid.
But as the Sikong of the current dynasty, how could he be frightened by a Yizhou official! I can only bite the bullet and continue to be tough.
"I will never take back what I said!"
Deng Zhi smiled even more when he heard this, and then took out a brocade from his arms.
"Cao Sikong, General Wei gave this to you, please take a look!"
Cao Cao couldn't wait for the eunuch to present it, so he walked to Deng Zhi and grabbed it.
The content of the letter is very simple, only five simple words.
Yuan, Liu, Cao, Liu, Sun.
Above is Yuan, on the left is Liu, and below are Liu and Sun.
Only the character Cao was tightly surrounded in the middle!
"this..."
Cao Cao's eyes widened, with a trace of fear evident in his eyes. Unknowingly, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Liu Zhang's intention was too obvious. He wanted to form an alliance to attack Cao Cao!
As long as Liu Zhang initiates it, I'm afraid Liu Biao, as an ally, will definitely respond!
Yuan Shao hated Cao Cao so much, how could he miss this opportunity?
Even Sun Quan of Jiangdong, who was in civil strife, would want a piece of the pie when he saw this opportunity!
The four armies are attacking together, what can Cao Cao do to resist?
"Liu...what does General Wei want to do?"
Cao Cao quickly pulled the letter into his arms, and the confidence in his voice was obviously not as strong as before.
This is the biggest disadvantage of occupying the rich Central Plains. There are enemies everywhere and there are no natural dangers to defend against.
Just when Cao Cao thought that Deng Zhi would become more arrogant when he saw his cowardice, Deng Zhi changed his previous frivolity and saluted Cao Cao with respect.
"Cao Sikong, please forgive Wei Chen for being disrespectful before!"
This made Cao Cao confused and even more confused about Deng Zhi's intentions.
However, Deng Zhi took the initiative to lower his stance, which obviously gave Cao Cao a step up.
Cao Cao had no choice but to get off the donkey. After all, this letter gave him too much of a deterrent!
"Ahem, no problem, I'm very generous!"
"Tell me, why did General Wei send you here?"
Deng Zhi smiled and bowed again.
"A few months ago, an angel came to Qixian County and issued two orders from His Majesty to General Wei. I wonder if Cao Sikong knew about it?"
"Know!"
Cao Cao nodded noncommittally, somewhat understanding Deng Zhi's intention.
He must be here to ask for the title of Lord Qin!
Cao Cao sneered in his heart. No wonder he gave himself a warning first. It turned out to be because he was afraid that the court would not admit it!
Deng Zhi nodded with satisfaction, then looked at the ministers around him and said loudly,
"A few months ago, an angel conveyed His Majesty's will to General Wei, asking General Wei to lead his elite troops to defeat Xianbei and regain the land in Guanzhong!"
"The Xianbei army originally had 150,000 troops, but General Wei had less than 50,000 troops, but he still resolutely chose to obey His Majesty's will!"
"There is only one reason. General Wei is a clan member of the Han Dynasty and a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty!"
The ministers nodded slightly and had no objections to this statement.
Everyone could see that Cao Cao was using the name of the emperor to push Liu Zhang into the pit of fire!
Liu Zhang could have used countless excuses to evade, but he still chose to obey the imperial edict.
From this point of view, Liu Zhang's loyalty to His Majesty is far stronger than anyone else, especially Cao Cao!
This time, being able to defeat the strong with the weak and promote the prestige of the Han Dynasty is indeed an indelible achievement.
Deng Zhi kept scanning the crowd, and seeing that the ministers did not have any dissatisfaction, he quickly continued to speak.
"Fortunately, General Wei is wise and brave, and he planned well, and finally lived up to His Majesty's trust!"
"This battle not only wiped away the humiliation of the Han Dynasty against Xianbei for many years, but also greatly shocked the foreign races on the border!"
"In my opinion, General Wei's achievements in pacifying the Southern Barbarians, subduing the Qiang and Hu, and massacring the Xianbei are no less than those of Huo Qubing, the hussar general back then!"
