Cao Cao had received the news early in the morning and was on tight alert as if facing a powerful enemy.
Liu Zhe sent someone to call the formation, "King Wei, King Yan invites you to a banquet. Do you dare to come?"
"Do it!" Cao Cao was depressed and cursed.
Liu Zhe¡¯s invitation to him for a drink would be bad, just as he told Sun Quan before. Liu Zhe invited him to have a drink, and then he suffered a big loss.
Now it's the same trick again. If possible, Cao Cao doesn't want to go, but the following sentence "dare you come" gives Cao Cao no choice. If he doesn't go, people will mistakenly think that he doesn't dare to go because he is afraid of Liu. Zhe. That would have a huge impact on the morale of the soldiers.
So he had no choice but to bite the bullet and get ready for the banquet.
The generals under his command nervously advised, "King Wei, be careful of fraud."
"King Wei, be careful this is the Hongmen Banquet."
"The King of Wei doesn't need to pay attention to Liu Zhe's behavior."
His subordinates tried to persuade him, but Cao Cao smiled bitterly and said, "Do you still have a choice? If I don't go, what will the soldiers think? Others will think that I am afraid of him."
¡°After he said this, many of his subordinates fell silent. Indeed, if Cao Cao did not go, it would easily be interpreted as that he was afraid of Liu Zhe, and then the battle would not be fought.
Cao Hong shouted, "King Wei, I will go with you."
Cao Cao also planned to take Cao Hong without Cao Hong saying anything. There is no need to bring too many people to the banquet. If you bring too many people, you will be laughed at.
In this way, Cao Cao took his troops out of the city, formed an array, and then took Cao Hong to the banquet. Among the two armies, Liu Zhe had already prepared everything and was waiting for Cao Cao.
Liu Zhe only brought Dian Wei with him. When Cao Cao arrived, he took a look at Dian Wei's burly figure and ferocious expression, and then looked at Cao Hong on his side. Although Cao Hong's strength was not weak, compared with the two, he was still inferior. Cao Cao felt that Cao Hong was weak in front of Dian Wei.
"King Wei, please sit down."
Liu Zhe asked Cao Cao to sit down, and then said with a smile, "King Wei, we haven't seen each other for a while, right?"
Cao Cao nodded and said, "It's been a while."
??Made, who would really like to see you if possible? It's definitely not good to see you. Cao Cao cursed secretly in his heart.
After Cao Cao sat down, he preemptively asked, "I wonder what you, King Yan, mean by leading troops to invade our realm?"
Liu Zhe said, "Is it this king who came to ask you, King Wei? Isn't it King Wei that you are sending people to invade my territory? King Wei, you must give me an explanation for this matter."
Cao Cao was secretly annoyed because he was indeed the one who started the war. The battlefield initially took place in Taishan County, Liu Zhe's territory. However, after Zhao Yun arrived, he continued to force the Wei army out of Qingzhou's territory, and also took advantage of the situation to advance into Yanzhou's territory, The flames of war burned into Cao Cao's territory.
However, as a monarch, being thick-skinned is the most basic thing. Cao Cao said without blushing, "Really? If I am the one who sent the troops first, then why are your soldiers and horses in my territory, King Yan?"
Liu Zhe said, "There is no way. Who made your people so vulnerable? It is legal for me to defend myself and fight back. Even if I bring trouble in front of the emperor, I will still be responsible. How about we go in front of the emperor and let the emperor judge?"
Damn it, threatening me? Cao Cao greeted Liu Zhe in his heart. What Liu Zhe meant was that if he didn't give him an explanation, he would fight him all the way to Xudu.
Cao Cao was annoyed, but he was really afraid of this. It would do him no good to continue fighting. Until now, he had not taken any advantage.
Thinking of this, Cao Cao took a deep breath and said, "Because your troops and horses are still in my territory and have caused great harm to the people. How about we retreat and shake hands to make peace?"
At this time, for Cao Cao, it was the best choice for both sides to stop fighting and shake hands to make peace.
Liu Zhe said, "I am not a warlike person, but even if a child makes a mistake, he must be punished. King Wei, you sent troops to provoke a war without permission, causing heavy losses to my men." , Could it be that, King Wei, you want to cover up these mistakes with just one sentence?"
Cao Cao said, "My king's soldiers also suffered heavy casualties, so what?"
"This is because of you, King Wei." Liu Zhe said, "If it weren't for you, King Wei, my soldiers would not have to pay such a price at all. They can still happily reunite with their families at home, because of you, King Wei. , It has caused great harm to these families, and even this king cannot make up for it." After hearing Liu Zhe say so much nonsense, Cao Cao finally understood. Liu Zhe said so much nonsense, only two words came back and forth. , lose money!
??Made, you are so greedy. Cao Cao's heartHe cursed secretly, but it was also what he expected.
In fact, Cao Cao was somewhat prepared in his heart. If he could pay a small sum of money to settle the matter, he wouldn't mind making some appropriate compensation, because ending the war now would be very beneficial to him. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
