In Luoyang, Cao Pi was immersed in great joy.

Yunshan has recovered Liangzhou, which has been a huge boost to the government and the people. All the ministers are happy and feel that life is hopeful.

When the world was in chaos, people in the court advocated giving up Liangzhou directly. The collusion between the rich and powerful people there had become a climate, and more than 100,000 elite cavalry were not easily confronted by the Central Plains soldiers.

He was preparing to spend several years waiting for the battle in Liangzhou. Unexpectedly, Yunshan came out of the pass, and the autumn wind defeated Han Sui and Ma Chao like falling leaves. Han Sui died of illness and Ma Chao fled. Although other young girls in Liangzhou are still there, Jincheng is already tightly held in his hands.

what does that mean?

"The destiny of heaven has betrayed the Han Dynasty. The former king swept the heroes and restored the Central Plains. Hebei. After the King of Wei ascended the throne, he swept Liangzhou. Now that all directions are pacified, the little one can only hide his head and retreat to seek food and clothing, and wait for the heavenly soldiers to attack. The King of Wei should follow the destiny of heaven, ascend to the throne, and use the honor of the emperor to tell the world to boost morale, and then attack the ugly people from all directions to face the hearing!"

The people who encouraged Cao Pi to replace the Han Dynasty could no longer wait.

They all offered various auspicious and congratulatory words, and began to persuade Cao Pi to ascend the throne seriously.

Cao Pi was also satisfied and began the process of refusal again.

Refusal is a must.

Cao Pi expressed his loyalty and kindness for generations, and his wish was to wipe out the ugly people from all over the world, and then he was willing to retire to the countryside without caring about the world.

The emperor of the Han Dynasty, who was still in Xudu, couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

He asked someone to send his seal to Luoyang, and in his letter to Cao Pi he called himself a "subject" and hoped that Cao Pi could bear the decree as soon as possible and not delay any further.

Looking at the crystal clear and soft and gloomy seal of the Kingdom, Cao Pi's eyes were filled with a hint of fanaticism, and he almost couldn't help but agree directly.

But he knew that he had to endure it a little.

"What is this? The emperor clearly put me on the fire and how can I handle myself?"

"Although Liangzhou is pacified and Sun Quan surrenders, there is still Liu Bei in the southwest corner who is in danger and unable to pacify the world. What kind of virtue can I dare to be the emperor?

Oh no, even if I pacify the world, I am a pure minister of the Han Dynasty. How can I call this title? A King of Wei is enough."

Cao Pi's compassionate expression was indeed very confusing, which made many generals who had a heart to the end scratch their heads quickly, indicating that this was absolutely impossible.

Heaven does not give birth to Cao Pi, and it will be like the long night forever.

The Emperor of Han, Liu Xie, had no virtue or talent, was the only one who could save the world.

Even though Cao Zhen knew that Cao Pi was pushing him, he couldn't help but rush to Cao Pi's Wei Palace in public, bowing and crying, saying that if Cao Pi could not be called the emperor, it would be a disaster for the people and would cause chaos in the world.

"The evil in all directions were all subdued by the King of Wei. I only knew that there was a King of Wei in the world, but I didn't know who the world was.

Now that Liangzhou Qiang and Hu are pacified, Yangzhou Sun Quan returns to his heart, Wuhuan in the north, Xianbei is also impressed by the spirit of the King of Wei. If the King of Wei cannot ascend the throne to the emperor, it will disappoint the people of the world and make the Huhu in all directions suspicious, and the people of the world will suffer."

Cao Pi felt proud in his heart, and finally couldn't help laughing. He slowly helped Cao Zhen up and said proudly: "Only after listening to Zihuan's words, I realized that the world is self-righteous.

At once……"

"Report!"

Before Cao Pi's pride had passed, he suddenly heard a harsh scream.

Cao Pi frowned and quickly asked someone to inquire. After a moment, he received news that almost fainted.

Sun Quan, who had already offered a surrender statement to express his willingness to return, actually showed his fangs again. After careful preparation, he really gathered an army of 100,000 this time and came to Hefei!

One hundred thousand army!

Cao Pi's face turned abnormally red and almost turned to the ground.

Is this happening?

Is this happening?

Previously, Sun Quan was defeated at the city of Hefei, and there was serious turmoil in Jiangdong due to insufficient troops and a sharp reduction in food and grass.

At that time, Sun Quan presented a surrender form and a household registration album for Jiangdong, and respectfully begged Cao Pi to surrender, saying that he had realized his mistake. Before, Sun Quan was young and ignorant and lacked control over Jiangdong. Zhou Yu took the opportunity to control the power, which made a big mistake in Wulin.

Now that Zhou Yu is dead, Sun Quan fully realized his previous stupidity and decided to surrender to the court and ask Cao Pi to forgive him.

Cao Pi, who had just succeeded King of Wei, had no time to deal with Sun Quan, so he had to agree temporarily.

After that, Sun Quan humbly sent a large number of Jiaozhou treasures, and began to march south to prepare for the conquest of Jiaozhou. Even the envoys sent by Cao Pi could do their best in Jiangdong.

This made Cao Pi believe that Sun Quan had lost his heart to resist and was willing to take himself as his master.

This can greatly encourage his prestige, consolidate his position as King of Wei, and lay a solid foundation for becoming emperor.

Two of the three parts of the world fell into my hands. In the end, the slow conquest in the southwest corner was not too much? Is it too much to be called emperor?

Cao Pi even prepared the edict to confer Sun Quan as King of Wu after he proclaimed himself emperor. Unexpectedly, Sun Quan stabbed himself back at this critical moment and launched an attack on Hefei again!

"Damn it! It's really abominable!"

At present, there are not many people available in the Luoyang Central Army, and it is difficult to support Luoyang.

There are also many soldiers - well, it's Zang Ba. Cao Pi felt that this person was as dangerous as Sun Quan. He asked him to save him but he didn't know who he was saving.

Sun Quan's arrival at this time completely ruined Cao Pi's good mood. It depends on this wave of his acceptance of Zen and proclaiming himself emperor. But if Sun Quan defeated him in Hefei, what kind of face would he have to be called emperor?

"How many soldiers are there in Hefei?" He asked Cao Zhen anxiously.

Cao Zhen's face darkened and he sighed:

"Not... ten thousand people!"

"Ten thousand people?" Cao Pi calculated and refused to defend the city. Ten thousand people insisted on fighting to the death. It should still be able to support it.

"Uh, it means only five thousand."

“…”

After several previous battles in Hefei, Cao Wei summarized a very economical way to defend the city.

The loss of the troops stationed in Hefei is too great to provide so many people with long-term combat.

It would be better to leave a small number of soldiers in Hefei to defend the city, wait for Sun Quan to attack and immediately dispatch troops from the Central Plains, take the water route to Shouchun to gather, and then go south to support Hefei.

This theory is very good and supports the entire battle between Cao Wei and Sun Wu in history.

But there is a very difficult problem at the moment - that is, the food and grass in Cao Pi had been transferred to the soldiers of the Western Expedition. Even if the Luoyang Central Army temporarily transferred the good family's children, their food and grass would not be good.

Damn it, why did Sun Quan come here at this time?

Cao Pi was sweating profusely and didn't know what to do for a moment, so he could only turn his attention to his good brother Cao Zhen.

Cao Zhen gritted his teeth and for a long time, he could only sigh slightly:

"Zihuan, this time... I have to make a decision."

"What decision?"

"At present, we can only transfer military advisor Chang back quickly, and at the same time... let Le enter the Eastern Expedition!"

"Le Jin? Eastern Expedition?"

Cao Pi hadn't heard the name Le Jin for a long time. He had long since put the warlords stationed in Xiangyang, but in fact he had already established his own side, and was unwilling to receive any news about him.

But now...

When Cao Zhen saw Cao Pi hesitating, he quickly talked:

"Mr. Chang brought the central army back. The journey was long and the food was not enough. It took about three or two months to return on this cold winter day. It is considered as the army guarding the Central Plains after the thief broke through Shouchun."

"But Le Jin is different. Le Jin has lived in Xiangyang for a long time and has sufficient soldiers and food, and can be called a prince of a place.

The King of Wei would rather appreciate the sons of Le Jin and grant him the land of Xiangyang and let Le Jin go for a long expedition. Le Jin would definitely follow his orders happily.

As long as he can break Xiakou and go down the river, just like Liu Biao back then, how could Sun Quan attack north? When our army attacks together, we will definitely be able to regain Hefei within half a year!"

Cao Zhen has no hope for defending Hefei. The only hope is that Hefei can hold on for a while and give them the opportunity to make a calm deployment in the back.

By the time they mobilize the army, they will definitely be able to retake Hefei in one fell swoop, and it will not be too slap Cao Pi in the face.

Cao Pi had a gloomy face and could only nod his head slowly.

"According to Zidan's words, go quickly... and spread Lejin and ask him to send troops!"

Cao Zhen called Wei and hurriedly retreated, but after a moment he got back.

"Zihuan, I just went out and heard something. I heard that Sun Quan called on the soldiers to move forward in the army, saying that Yunshan was the son of Guan Yu, and when he broke through Hefei, he would attack him in two directions. This..."

"There are still such rumors," Cao Pi said gritting his teeth, "It is really hateful that Sun Quan dares to alienate his or her sister-in-law now!"

Cao Zhen lowered his head and said quickly: "I also think this matter is a rumor, but more than one person has already said this matter. And it is related to state affairs, so we must be careful. In my opinion, it is better to take advantage of the recovery of Liangzhou and Sun Quanbei's crime to ask Yunshan to return to discuss major events, if he is willing to return..."
