    War is never easy.

    Cao Cao had been waiting for Liu Ke's arrival, and he was not disappointed.

    "Liu Dingfang is still the same as before, using his military skills to the fullest. Facing such an opponent, our chance of winning is less than 10%." Cao Cao said.

    This sentence caused an uproar in an instant.

    "My lord, no matter how strong Dongyang Marquis is, as long as we work together, we may not have no chance." Xiahou Dun said.

    "Yes, lord, we fear Dongyang Hou, but also respect every enemy. Dongyang Hou is just one of our enemies now, and we will face more enemies in the future." Xia Houyuan said.

    After listening to the speech of the second general, Cao Cao burst out laughing and said: "It is my honor to have you here, and it increases the chance of winning by 20%."

    Only then did Xi Zhi feel relieved. It turned out that the lord did not have no fighting spirit, but was motivating the whole army in this way.

    After all, Marquis Dongyang put so much pressure on them that everyone was in a daze.  Especially when the scouts came to report that Dongyang Hou had led the main force to Runan.

    Runan is their sad place. Yuan Shu¡¯s talent is mediocre, but his extraordinary performance this time is really impressive.

    "I want to meet with the Marquis of Dongyang. What do you think?" Cao Cao said.

    "My lord, no!" Xi Zhicai blurted out.

    "Why not?" Cao Cao asked.

    Of courseCao Cao's army attacked Yangzhou, which was an unjust act. Wouldn't the meeting between the two sides be asking for trouble?

    You will likely suffer shame.

    The Lord humiliated his minister to death, so Xi Zhi did not want Cao Cao to go.

    Xi Zhicai explained it carefully, but Cao Cao didn't listen.

    "Who is the Marquis of Dongyang? He would not be surprised if Mount Tai collapsed." Cao Cao said.

    The general trend of the world is like this, how could the Marquis of Dongyang not be able to grasp it clearly.  The power of Yangzhou blocked the way of the princes.

    "Since the Lord insists on this, then I will make arrangements." Xi Zhicai said.

    "Okay, but let's build a high platform first. I want to meet the Marquis of Dongyang on the high platform." Cao Cao said.

    Xi Zhicai soon understood, wouldn't it be nice to have everyone chatting and laughing on the high platform?

    Three days later, the high platform was built in the middle of the two army camps.

    Cao Cao¡¯s letter was also delivered to Liu Ke.

    Liu Ke was not interested in Cao Cao's invitation.

    "What do you think?" Liu Ke asked.

    "I'm afraid Cao Mengde knows that he is defeated and is playing tricks on him. My lord, it's better not to go!" Tai Shici said.

    If Liu Ke is assassinated, the entire bright future of Yangzhou will be ruined.  Liu Ke is the backbone of Yangzhou, how can he take risks so easily?

    Some generals are like this. They did not die on the battlefield, but lost their lives in conspiracy.

    "What Ziyi said makes sense, brother, think twice, is it possible that Cao Cao will surrender directly if he goes there?" Dian Wei also advised.

    Liu Ye objected, saying: "Cao Cao's letter said that he would ask for an imperial edict. If the lord doesn't go, I'm afraid there will be clues left."

    "You want your brother to take risks?" Dian Wei said with a straight face.

    "No, even if we go, we must have a complete plan. It is best to keep the location in our hands." Liu Ye said.

    Dian Wei agrees very much with this point. His Guards Battalion is to protect Liu Ke.

    If troops can be sent there, Dian Wei believes that he can provide all-round protection.  Liu Ke is very skilled, and ordinary assassination will not work on him at all.

    "Go, go, drink and have fun on the high platform, in front of the two armies, is also a happy thing in life." Guo Jia said with a smile.

    In fact, the most important reason is to be famous in history.  For these scholars, posthumous reputation is everything, far more important than life.

    In history, many old ministers liked to crash to death in the Golden Palace.

    People like this tune.

    There is also Sima Qian. As a historian, he recorded many misdeeds of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He was threatened by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, but he was strangled and asked to kill him.

    So, Cao Cao and Liu Ke agreed that each side would bring a thousand men and horses to the appointment.  With the same number, the Yangzhou army was more elite.

    It can be said that in order for Liu Ke to keep the appointment, Cao Cao made some concessions.

    Dian Wei surveyed the environment in advance. It was very open and it was impossible to hide an ambush.  Yangzhou has more cavalry and is not timid at all.

    ?????????????????????p; "Because, in my heart, I hold the whole world in my heart!" Cao Cao said, "The power of Yangzhou is known to the whole world. If it is not suppressed, there will be nothing to do with weak princes like us."

    "You insist on going your own way and plunge the people into the fire and water of war." Liu Ke said calmly.

    "How can there be no war without sacrifices? Only when the world is unified can the people live and work in peace and contentment." Cao Cao said in an authentic tone.

    "When did you, Cao Mengde, become so great?" Yuan Shu suddenly mocked. He followed Liu Ke here just to see Cao Cao's disappointed face.

    Later, Cao Cao chattered a lot of irrelevant topics, but Yuan Shu didn't say much.  Now that Cao Cao was bragging, Yuan Shu felt it was his duty to step forward.

    "What qualifications do you have to stand here and speak?" Cao Cao asked. He and Liu Ke were both great princes, and Yuan Shu was just a small man occupying a county.

    "I am the governor of Yangzhou appointed by the imperial court. What, Cao Mengde, do you have any objections?" Yuan Shu said proudly.

    Cao Cao almost sprayed a mouthful of old blood on Yuan Shu's face. When did this happen?

    At the beginning, in order to teach Liu Ke a lesson, General He Jin made Liu Ke the shepherd of Yangzhou, and also made Yuan Shu the governor of Yangzhou, so that Yuan Shu could fight for power.

    Yuan Shu also sent troops to attack Dongyang, and later lost Jiujiang County.  In Yangzhou, he has no territory.

    Cao Cao directly carried out the imperial edict and looked down at Yuan Shu.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
