Cao Cao's luck is not bad!

After Gucheng encountered a disaster, Lai's troops fought to the death, and he finally broke through the siege.

However, after this war, Cao Cao's elite troops were almost wiped out, which was severely damaged. But as Xun Yu said, when the princes were all avoiding the war, Cao Cao fought bravely and saved countless people who were bullied by Dong Zhuo.

His reputation reached its peak, and the princes respected and pityed him more, but none of them had any ill intentions towards him.

reason?

Very simple!

What kind of waves can Cao Cao, who has lost his troops?

In their eyes, Cao Cao could no longer threaten them at this time. Since that is the case, what's wrong with being polite?

After Cao Cao returned to Yanshi, he did not continue to stay in the coalition forces.

He found an excuse to say goodbye to the princes.

No one stopped the princes, and some even gave him some troops.

Yanzhou Governor Liu Dai even made a suggestion and asked Cao Cao if he was willing to live in Dongjun.

If Cao Cao agrees, he can provide all the supplies, food and grass, and help Cao Cao recruit troops.

Don’t think that Liu Dai is kind-hearted, because he can see that Cao Cao has no ability to be independent at all now... But he is famous and has a good reputation. If he wins over his subordinates, it can bring many benefits to Liu Dai, so why not do it?

Dongjun is the territory of Qiaomao.

However, Qiao Mao died at the hands of Liu Dai.

Now the prefect of Dongjun Wang Gong is also Liu Dai's confidant.

It can be said that the entire Dongjun was under his control. After Cao Cao arrived in Dongjun, his every move could not escape his eyes.

In this way, what is Liu Dai afraid of?

Cao Cao really needs a place to live and recuperate.

After Liu Dai invited him, he agreed after a little consideration, and then took less than a thousand defeated soldiers to Dongjun.

He left quietly, not as powerful as when Sun Jian left Luoyang later, and was almost watched by all the princes.

It is precisely for this reason that Pang De had squandered his efforts to find out about Cao Cao.

Ding Chen suddenly felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

After thanking Pound for some thanks, he asked Pound to go down and rest.

Back in the tent, he immediately spread his hands and wrote a letter to Mrs. Ding.

My sister is now in Jieshui Pond outside Chang'an City.

The Jieshui Pond is a place name, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is very beautiful.

The reason why I settled in Jieshui Pond is that it is quiet here, and the other is that it is far away from the hustle and bustle of Chang'an City. It is not far from Chang'an, and the security environment is also good. Besides, Jia Qu's troops are also accompanying him to protect Mrs. Ding's safety.

It is true that Mrs. Ding resents Cao Cao, but how can she not worry about her husband and wife for a hundred days?

Now that Ding Chen has received news from Cao Cao, his first thought is to send a letter to Mrs. Ding so that his sister will not continue to worry.

Cao Cao, he is really lucky!

After writing the letter, Ding Chen found Hu Cheer.

"Che'er, bring a letter and go to Jieshuipi in Chang'an to give it to my sister.

Take a song with you in person. After seeing my sister, you don’t have to rush back. Just stay there and listen to my sister’s instructions and protect him.”

"Here!"

"Tell me sister, and I will go back as soon as possible.

As soon as I go back, I will prepare for action and let her prepare early.”

Hu Cheer didn't understand, but Sister must understand.

After everything was arranged, Ding Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, sat down, and couldn't help but shake his head and chuckled.

I have to admit that Cao Cao is very lucky!

His luck was really good. Although he was wiped out, the benefits he brought to him were unimaginable.

After going to Dongjun, even if you live under someone else's roof, you will have a place to live.

Using Cao Cao's means to control the situation, it would be impossible for him to do so... His desperation this time was quite a bit like putting it to death. At the same time, he quietly withdrew from the messy alliance of the coalition forces.

Good!

However, Cao Cao escaped, but the princes stationed in Luoyang were in chaos.

The departure of Sun Jian made Yuan Shao feel dissatisfied.

More importantly, he may also carry the imperial seal with him.

Yuan Shao went to ask Sun Jian, but Sun Jian refused to admit that there was any incident.

It has to be said that sometimes people will be blinded by profit and are more likely to be blinded by desire.

The more Sun Jian refused to admit it, the more suspicious Yuan Shao felt.

It’s normal to think about it. Will anyone come forward to admit it after getting that thing?

So, Yuan Shao proposed again, I want to search your camp.

This time, Sun Jian was completely angered. He couldn't help but refuse, and he drove away from Luoyang that night.

But in the eyes of Yuan Shao and others, his departure seemed more like a guilty thief.

The imperial seal must be in his hands, and must have been taken away by him!

He is a barbarian in Jiangdong. What kind of virtue can he occupy the important weapon of the country? No, he must not take away the imperial seal.

But as the leader of the coalition forces, Yuan Shao could not really attack Sun Jian.

When it is spread, others will say that he is a treasure who is greedy for Sun Jian, so he does this. For Yuan Shao, this is absolutely not allowed... He is a child of the Yuan family and is famous all over the world. He must not have any stains that are not conducive to him in terms of character.

So Yuan Shao had a sudden inspiration and came up with a plan.

Previously, Sun Jian killed Wang Rui, the governor of Jingzhou, but the position of governor was vacant.

While the princes were fighting, Dong Zhuo did not stop acting.

After repeated thinking, he chose Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng to take over Jingzhou.

This Liu Biao was from Shanyang and was a relative of the Han Dynasty.

Moreover, in terms of virtue and fame, Liu Biao is no less than Yuan Shao, and is one of the "Eight Jokers".

If Liu Biao was appointed as the governor of Jingzhou, no one would stand up to stop him, and he would also be supported by the Han family.

More importantly, with the name of Liu Biao Bajun, Dong Zhuo can also gain a good reputation.

So, when the fierce battle between Xingyang and Hulao Pass was in full swing, Liu Biao took dozens of followers, almost alone, to Jingzhou for post.

Yuan Shao's plan was to ask Liu Biao to take action and kill Sun Jian.

Although Sun Jian was the prefect of Changsha, he was not from Jingxiang.

The Jingxiang clan has a very strong xenophobic nature and does not particularly like Sun Jian.

In addition, Sun Jian killed the governor Wang Rui in order to send troops. To a certain extent, it also touched the interests of the Jingxiang clan.

Therefore, those people will definitely not welcome Sun Jian back.

And what about Liu Biao?

The single horse went to Jingzhou, alone and lonely.

He needs to win over the Jingxiang clan, and at the same time he needs to consume the power of the Jingxiang clan.

Then Sun Jian is a whetstone. I believe that with Liu Biao's ability, he will definitely come up with a way to fight Sun Jian and the Jingxiang clan.

Yuan Shao’s plan was very appropriate and he just waited for Liu Biao to take action.

But before Liu Biao acted, he wanted to continue to win over the princes and wait for news about Liu Yu, the governor of Youzhou.

He sent someone to visit Liu Yu, hoping to make Liu Yu the emperor.

In Yuan Shao's opinion, Liu Yu, who was also a relative of the Han Dynasty, would definitely not refuse the temptation of the throne.

However, this person's heart has indeed dispersed...

Hanoi prefect Wang Kuang took the lead in withdrawing from the coalition forces.

Subsequently, Xuzhou Governor Tao Qian also used the excuse of a rebellion in the state and needed to go back to quell the rebellion as soon as possible.

The Yellow Turbans in Jibei Kingdom have resurrected... Well, this is not an excuse.

You should know that although the Yellow Turban Rebellion was quelled, the remnants of the Yellow Turban were still scattered everywhere, causing disaster everywhere. Among them, Qingzhou was the most serious. After receiving the news, Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei, did not dare to stay in Luoyang, so he hurriedly left.

What annoyed Yuan Shao the most was his brother who was ignorant of priorities.
