    After several days of intense preparations, the 200,000-strong army of Chu King Liu Ke officially marched towards Luoyang, Sizhou.

    At the same time, Liu Ke sent an order to Zhang Liao, the governor of Yuzhou, to assemble all the soldiers and horses in Yuzhou to attack Yin Xinzheng in Henan first, and to be fully prepared before the arrival of his own army.

    He also ordered Lu Meng, the governor of Yanzhou, to lead troops to Sishui Pass to frighten the capital of Luoyang.

    Liu Ke's big move immediately attracted the attention of the world. After Cao Cao, who was having a long-term confrontation with Sun Ce in Chang'an, got the news, he overturned the table in front of him.

    "Liu Ke, you kid! You've been treacherous. I've signed an armistice with him and agreed to pay tribute to him every year, but he actually raised troops to invade the country again! What a shame!"

    Cao Cao¡¯s eyes were flashing with deep anger.

    Jiang Ji advised: "King Wei, calm down and think about how to deal with it for now."

    Cao Cao rubbed his temples and asked, "Zitong, how many troops and horses are there in Sizhou and who is stationed there?"

    "Reporting to the King of Wei, all our troops have been gathered in Chang'an. There are only 60,000 troops in Sizhou, and General Lejin is stationed there."

    "It's Wen Qian." When he heard that it was Le Jin who was guarding Luoyang, Cao Cao calmed down a little. He was relatively reassured by Le Jin's ability.

    Although Yingchuan County was accidentally lost before, it was due to Wenpin's betrayal.  With Le Jin's talent, there is still no problem if he persists for a month.  As for the problem of food and grass, Luoyang has plenty of it.

    "I believe that Wen Qian can defend Luoyang. Now it is better to defeat Sun Ce first." Cao Cao thought for a while and said.

    Hearing this, Sima Yi went out and said: "King Wei, I think it is not appropriate to fight with Sun Ce anymore. Liu Ke is a serious problem, and Sun Ce is just a minor illness. Please send a general to lead troops back to Luoyang immediately."

    "Huh? Zhongda, although Liu Ke has invaded in large numbers, I still believe in Wen Qian's ability. Sun Ce is already at the end of his strength, so we should first eliminate Sun Ce."

    Cao Cao looked at Sima Yi in confusion.

    Sima Yi then said: "King Wei, you can't fight Sun Ce anymore. If you fight Sun Ce again, Liu Ke will only reap the benefits. For this plan, please ask the King of Wei to make peace with Sun Ce."

    "Make peace with Sun Ce!" A trace of anger flashed in Cao Cao's eyes, and he said dissatisfiedly; "Did Zhongda forget that Sun Ce bullied the orphans and captured Feng Yi and Fufeng in the past?"

    "King Wei, I dare not forget, but only by uniting with Sun Ce, making friends with Liu Bei from afar, and gathering the strength of the three parties, can we have a chance to fight Liu Ke!" Sima Yi persuaded bitterly.

    Jiang Ji also understood what Sima Yi meant. After thinking about it carefully, he immediately advised him, "King Wei, what Zhongda said is from the bottom of his heart. Please accept it."

    Sima Lang also said: "Please, King Wei, trust Zhongda for once."

    Seeing all the advisers saying this, Cao Cao also pondered. After considering the pros and cons, he nodded silently and said, "Okay, as Zhongda said."

    When Cao Cao relaxed, everyone felt relieved.

    Sima Yi continued: "Since the King of Wei is willing to make peace with Sun Ce, first ask the King of Wei to send General Yu Jin to lead an army back to Luoyang to guard against Liu Ke."

    This time, Cao Cao was very happy and ordered directly: "Yu Jin listens to the order. I order you and Xiahou Shang to lead one hundred thousand troops and return to Luoyang. They must keep the enemy out of the city."

    Yu Jin came out and said: "Promise! In the end, the general will definitely not be trusted by the King of Wei!"

    Subsequently, Yu Jin took Xiahou Shang and an army of 100,000 to leave Chang'an and rushed to Luoyang.

    After Yu Jin left, Jiang Ji said: "King Wei, Zhongda said that we need to unite Liu Bei and Sun Ce. Ji is willing to go to Chengdu to persuade Liu Bei to send troops."

    When he mentioned Liu Bei, Cao Cao felt a little depressed and said, "Zitong is willing to go, and there is nothing wrong with him. It's just Liu Bei's son who is treacherous and insidious. Don't be fooled by Zitong."

    Jiang Ji knew that Cao Cao was worried that he would be like Yang Xiu last time, cutting land and sending food, but in the end he was tricked.  Immediately, he promised; "Please rest assured, King Wei, Jiding will fulfill his mission!"

    After saying this, Jiang Ji left in a hurry, mounted a fast horse, took a few attendants, and headed towards Chengdu.

    Sima Yi also said at this time: "King Wei, Yi is willing to go to Sun Ce and talk about the interests and dangers, which will definitely make Sun Ce and King Wei put aside their old grudges and jointly resist Liu Ke."

    Cao Cao nodded and agreed; "Okay, then I'll trouble Zhongda to make a trip."

    "No!"

    ¡­¡­

    In Chengdu, Jiang Ji worked hard all the way, and finally arrived outside Chengdu under the starry night.

    Come to the cityJiang Ji shouted: "I am Jiang Ji who is under the command of the King of Wei. I am sent as an envoy on the order of the King of Wei, asking to see the King of Hanzhong."

    When the defenders on the city heard this, they waved their hands to the soldiers guarding the city gate and said loudly, "Master Fazheng has said that if the envoys of King Wei come, they must not stop them and put them directly into the city."

    Immediately, the gate of Chengdu slowly opened for Jiang Ji. After entering, Jiang Ji couldn't help but think about what the defenders said before.

    It seems that Fazheng knew that he would come. It seems that Fazheng is the key to convincing Liu Bei to send troops to fight against Liu Ke.  But I heard that this person's intelligence is close to that of a demon, and it is really difficult to deal with him.

    Shaking his head, Jiang Ji straightened his robes and stepped into the Hanzhong Palace.

    In the palace, Liu Bei was wearing a royal robe, sitting on the throne, closing his eyes and relaxing.  Under it, there was only one person, Fa Zheng, and there was no one except Fa Zheng.

    Arriving in front of Liu Bei, Jiang Ji bowed and said, "Jiang Ji, the envoy of the King of Wei, comes to see the King of Hanzhong!"

    Liu Bei opened his eyes slightly and said warmly, "Envoy, please rise. I wonder why the King of Wei sent you here?"

    Jiang Ji smiled and said, "I am reporting to the King of Hanzhong that Ji is here for the safety of the King of Hanzhong."

    "Well!" Liu Bei narrowed his eyes slightly and said in feint of anger; "The envoy spoke arrogantly and showed exaggeration. If it weren't for the fact that you are the envoy of the King of Wei, I would have killed you right now!"

    Fa Zheng just smiled and said nothing.

    Hearing this, Jiang Ji showed no fear on his face. He knew in his heart that this was just a show of force from Liu Bei, and it was also a common method used by kings.  When he went to Liu Ke to seek peace, he still remembered the threats Liu Ke gave him.

    Therefore, Jiang Ji's face was unstable and he said calmly: "The King of Hanzhong should calm down for the time being and listen to Ji's words. The King of Chu, Liu Ke, is almost invincible wherever he goes. Isn't the King of Hanzhong worried?"

    "Haha, the King of Chu and I are from the same clan, so how can I be worried?" Liu Bei sneered.

    Jiang Ji curled his lips and said, "It's a pity that the King of Hanzhong regards the King of Chu as a fellow sect, so it doesn't mean that the King of Chu Liu Ke takes you, the King of Hanzhong, in his eyes."

    "What does the envoy mean by this?" Liu Bei's face was slightly gloomy.

    "I have no other intention, I just kindly remind you, King of Hanzhong, that King Liu of Chu is by no means an easy person to deal with!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
