The Zangge News just listed the possibilities, reasons and targets of Liu Bei's possible attack on Gongsun Xu. The target is naturally Cao Cao.

This is something that Cao Cao absolutely dare not not believe. He is a suspicious person to begin with. Even he, the more he looks at it, the more he believes in the actions and purposes of Liu Bei mentioned above.

Therefore, after he found a way to maintain the balance between him and Gongsun Zan, he had to consider Liu Bei.

Liu Bei was in Xinye, and he controlled Wancheng. Wancheng was Zhang Xiu's territory before, and Zhang Xiu had defected to Liu Bei before. If Liu Bei was unfamiliar with Wancheng, Cao Cao didn't believe it.

Once Liu Bei succeeds in his sneak attack on Wancheng, the situation in Nanyang County will deteriorate, and even Xudu will be threatened and exposed to Liu Bei's troops.

Facing the safety of his home base, Cao Cao did not dare to take it lightly. Yang Xiu had performed well just now, so Cao Cao continued to ask him what he could do to deal with Liu Bei.

Now Yang Xiu couldn't tell. After all, he was young and lacked experience. In Yang Xiu's impression, Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan were not on the same level. Gongsun Zan is a prince of one side, while Liu Bei lives under the fence of others and only occupies one city and is the overlord of one side. The two cannot be considered the same.

What's more, Liu Bei has been defeated by Cao Cao, so in Yang Xiu's view, Liu Bei is no longer worthy of being taken seriously.

So Yang Xiu thought for a while and then said:"My lord, I think Liu Bei is no longer a cause for concern.""

"oh?

Cao Cao became interested and asked,"Tell me about it!""

Cao Cao's voice was full of expectation, hoping to hear useful words from Yang Xiu.

Yang Xiu then expressed his views on Liu Bei, and finally suggested:"The prime minister only needs to send one general to lead an army, that is, You can capture Xinye and capture Liu Bei alive."

After hearing what Yang Xiu said, a trace of disappointment flashed in Cao Cao's eyes. Yang Xiu was still too young and lacked knowledge. He only saw the surface of Liu Bei and could not see the inside and outside. It is true that Liu Bei was defeated by Cao Cao once, but Liu Bei is now Only occupying the new field, there are not many soldiers, not enough food and grass, and there is a huge gap in strength between Liu Bei and Cao Cao. However, behind Liu Bei is Liu Biao. Cao Cao sends troops to deal with Liu Bei. God knows whether it will trigger a direct confrontation between him and Liu Biao.

Cao Cao also has Gongsun Zan. existence, and Liu Biao faced off, Gongsun Zan would definitely be happy to stab him in the back.

Therefore, even though Cao Cao knew Liu Bei's current strength, he hesitated to take action because of this reason

"Well, I know it."

Cao Cao's tone did not fluctuate at all. Although he was disappointed in his heart, no one could hear any of his emotional fluctuations.

"You sit down first."Cao Cao told Yang Xiudao and asked him to sit here and participate in this meeting. This can be regarded as a kind of training.

Cao Cao knew that his talents were not as many as Liu Zhe's, so when he met a good talent, he would naturallyIncrease cultivation.

Yang Xiu was very smart. With Cao Cao's flat tone, he knew that his performance just now dissatisfied Cao Cao.

At that moment, Yang Xiu calmed down the arrogance on his face and sat down obediently to listen. He looked closely at everyone present and prepared to study hard. This opportunity was rare.

Seeing that Cao Cao did not adopt Yang Xiu's method of dealing with Liu Bei, everyone present understood what Cao Cao was thinking. Liu Bei is not going to fight now, but he must find a way to prevent Liu Bei from attacking Cao Cao.

Mao Jie was the first to speak out. He said:"Prime Minister, I think you can go to Sun Ce.""

"Looking for Sun Ce?"

"That's right, Yangzhou Shepherd Liu Yao died of illness, and most of his former troops surrendered to Sun Ce. Sun Ce actually took control of Yangzhou himself. However, Sun Ce was very competitive and showed his sharp edge. He repeatedly threatened to avenge his father. In order to prevent Sun Ce, Liu Biao sent general Huang Zu to garrison Jiangxia."

"The lord might as well go with the flow and send an angel to Yangzhou with the emperor's imperial edict, recognize Sun Ce's position as Yangzhou Mu, and then order him to use troops against Liu Biao. Let the two families attack each other. Although Liu Biao has nine counties in Jingzhou and is strong, Sun Ce is not weak in strength and has better morale. Liu Biao may not be his opponent. If Liu Biao couldn't defeat Sun Ce, he would definitely ask Liu Bei to take action. At that time, Liu Bei would naturally have no time to deal with the prime minister."

Mao Jie's words were very long, and the explanations were clear and interlocking. Cao Cao couldn't help but cheer loudly after listening to them.

According to Mao Jie's method, the three families of Sun Ce, Liu Bei, and Liu Biao would be entangled together, and there would be no time to bother him.. And he can rest assured, recuperate, reorganize his armaments, and wait for the opportunity. What

Cao Cao needs to pay are some trivial things, such as Sun Ce's Yangzhou Mu? This only requires an imperial edict to use Sun Ce to send troops. In exchange for attacking Liu Biao, if he wanted the imperial court to recognize Yangzhou as a pastoralist, Sun Ce would have to send troops to attack Liu Biao. Anyway, Yangzhou was already under Sun Ce's rule and there was no way to snatch it away, so he might as well use it as an exchange.

Wonderful, the more Cao Cao thought about it The more excited he gets, the more he wants to yell twice to vent his anger.

Once Mao Jie's method is successfully implemented, he can run aside like Liu Zhe, set up a small bench, and watch the show with peace of mind. It

's really wonderful.......
