Cao Cao had already fulfilled his thoughts, or was a big concern, or it could be said that he was a heart-wrenching illness.

And not only him, but also his subordinates, as well as the soldiers of the Yanzhou Army, how many of them were not like this? After a few days of rest, Cao Cao led his soldiers to Dangyang. Although Dangyang is now the territory of the Sun and Liu coalition forces, Cao Cao didn't care about this. He only cared about when he could unite with Sun Ce and Liu Bei.

Speaking of this alliance, Cao Cao thought that his side was very passive. Indeed, he took the initiative to talk to Sun Ce and Liu Bei. This is true, but because of the Xiangyang incident, whether it was himself or the Yanzhou army, it should be said that he made a big concession, so the current situation was incurred.

But of course, Cao Cao would not think that the alliance between his side and the Sun and Liu coalition was as solid as a silence and would never change. Is this possible? So since this is not the case, when will the alliance break down? He and his subordinates also talked about this matter. In the end, everyone agreed that without any accidents, generally speaking, as long as Ma Chao Liangzhou army withdrew from Jingzhou, or if they were defeated, they would no longer be able to fight against the alliance between his side and the Sun and Liu coalition. At that time, it was the time for several parties to showdown.

-----------------------------------------------------

Why do you think so? It’s because now, whether it’s our own side or the Sun and Liu coalition forces, they do have a common enemy, and this enemy is still very powerful, which is recognized. It’s also something that I, Sun Ce and Liu Bei recognize. So, when dealing with Ma Chao Liangzhou Army, both sides can’t do it, so why not the three sides?

If the three parties are not good enough, then go back to their own houses. It is really not suitable for Jingzhou to stay anymore. Indeed, if that time comes, it will only be possible to withdraw from Jingzhou. Otherwise, what else can be done?

In fact, when Cao Cao led his troops north to Xiangyang, he had already sent people to Zhonglu. As for what to do in Zhonglu, it was too simple. Cao Cao asked someone to find the Kuai brothers. Why did he find them? Of course, he wanted to get some benefits from them. After all, Cao Cao had already given Sun Ce and Liu Bei a lot of benefits, so he also wanted to get some benefits from the Kuai brothers. After all, except at the beginning, the Kuai brothers had not given much substantial benefits to the Yanzhou army until now. So Cao Cao sent someone to ask for it.

-----------------------------------------------------

In Cao Cao's opinion, he did not have the advantage before. The Kuai brothers turned around when the wind direction was wrong, so he would not contact his own side. This was understandable. But what was going on now? Now he has formed an alliance with Sun Ce and Liu Bei to fight against Ma Chao's Liangzhou army together, so if his Kuai brothers don't have some effort, it would be unreasonable.

At least no matter what, the Liangzhou army of Ma Chao is also an enemy of his Kuai family. At least Cao Cao believes that since they have not surrendered to Ma Chao, Ma Chao will definitely not be too friendly to them, so they can be classified as hostile. Moreover, since the Kuai brothers have already contacted him, he does not believe that they can still contact Ma Chao, after all, they can give them more and greater benefits, so Ma Chao may not be sure of this.

Cao Cao was still very confident about this, so he sent someone to Zhonglu long ago. In his opinion, with the minds of the Kuai brothers, he could see the current situation clearly, so there should be no need to say more to him.

At this time, Cao Cao had already led his troops to Dangyang. Because he was close, he led his troops first.

-----------------------------------------------------

In less than a day, Sun Ce and Liu Bei had already led their troops to Dangyang.

Sun Ce and Liu Bei saw Wen Pin who was heading south from Xiangyang, not on the way, but in Wuling. Wen Pin told his actions to his lord and Sun Ce. After hearing this, they could be said to be very satisfied. After all, they didn't even leave the city defense for Cao Cao, so they could really think about what Cao Cao's expression would be.

After the three of them met again, they couldn't help but exchanged greetings, and then gathered together to discuss the next advance deployment. How to say that, although the three of them had already discussed the entry of Jiangxia last time, they could not bring out a substantial thing, how to attack, but later the three of them put this matter today for discussion, so...

Cao Cao smiled and said to Sun Ce and Liu Bei, "I don't know what you think. I didn't discuss the result last time, so there should be a result today!"

-----------------------------------------------------

Sun Ce glanced at Liu Bei at this time. Liu Bei understood and gave Sun Ce a look of agreement. Then he said to Cao Cao: "Cao Sikong's intention, Ce of course knows what Ce and Xuandegong meant that since both of you and I have arrived in Dangyang, then naturally we should take Yun Du first. I wonder what Cao Sikong thinks?"

When Cao Cao heard Sun Ce's words, he thought to himself Yundu. He knew it immediately. Although he didn't know much about Jiangxia's geography, he had never seen the map of Jiangxia County many times. Therefore, the county towns in Jiangxia have long been imprinted in Cao Cao's mind. So when Sun Ce talked about Yundu, he knew where it was.

Not to mention, the Yundu City mentioned by Sun Ce is indeed the closest to Dangyang, or the first county town to go east to Jiangxia, so it is correct to take the land first.

Cao Cao looked at Liu Bei and asked knowingly: "Is it true that the troops advance to Yundu, I wonder if it is Xuande's intention?"

When Liu Bei heard this, he rolled his eyes and said that you, Cao Mengde, did it on purpose. Before, Sun Bofu clearly said that this was the result of discussing with him. Then, Cao Mengde, still asked him knowingly. Could it be that he wanted to sow discord?

-----------------------------------------------------

In Liu Bei's opinion, isn't Cao Cao the only thing that means? But he doesn't think that he and Sun Ce are so easily alienated by Cao Cao. If this is the case, the alliance would be too fragile. Although Liu Bei would not say that he had no conflict with Sun Ce, at least for a while, the Sun-Liu alliance would never break down. This is true.

At this time, he looked at Cao Cao and said, "Cao Sikong doesn't have to worry. It's true that General Sun and Bei have agreed on each other, so don't worry!"

As for Sun Ce, it was like nothing happened at this time, as if these had nothing to do with him. Indeed, Sun Ce didn't care so much about Cao Cao's discord. What he cared about was whether Cao Cao could agree with his own ideas. After all, he thought what he was thinking was actually quite right, or it should be said that it was the most important thing that his own Sun-Liu coalition and his Cao Mengde Yanzhou army should do. So, Cao Cao should not refute this, or should he say that he has any reason to refute it.

Cao Cao laughed loudly when he heard this, "So, I feel relieved, but I am too worried, too much, hahaha!"

-----------------------------------------------------

Even if Cao Cao didn't say that, no one would bother him. After all, they are still alliances now, and whether it is Sun Ce or Liu Bei, they will not offend Cao Cao easily. No matter how much they say, the retreat problem of their Yanzhou army has been solved, so it can be said that Cao Cao is not controlled by others, so of course he is straight and tougher, which is certain.

At this time, Sun Ce asked: "I wonder what Cao Sikong thinks, what did Ce propose before?"

Cao Cao smiled at this time and said, "The so-called 'heroes' see the same as each other'! Cao already knows the meaning of General Sun and Xuande, but this is actually what Cao thinks. It seems that you and Cao have the same view as each other! Hahaha!"

After saying this, Cao Cao laughed loudly, while Sun Ce and Liu Bei were also laughing happily. It would be boring if Cao Cao laughed alone, so both of them laughed with him.

-----------------------------------------------------

So in this way, the three of them had already decided to advance to Jiangxia and seize Yundu first.

Cao Cao's exploration of the city was found out in just a few days. It is said that there were 5,000 Liangzhou troops defending it. Or to be more precise, it was actually transferred from Yizhou by Ma Chao, and of course, the general term is called Liangzhou troops.

After the three of them discussed the advance and deployment, the Yanzhou Army and the Sun and Liu coalition forces rested in Dangyang for only one day, and then the army entered Jiangxia and captured Yundu. The speed of the few people was indeed fast enough, at least it did not take any time, and they immediately sent troops. So the three of them led the army and rushed to Jiangxia in a mighty manner and began a battle with Ma Chao Liangzhou Army.
