Chapter Five Hundred and Ninetieth Coalition Forces
In this day and age, rich people hold weddings more extravagantly, and even ordinary people are better off than anyone else.
But like Zhang Yu, there are really few people who limit their own wedding specifications.
Zhang Yu did this, of course, for hype and to pave the way for him to increase taxes.
No, the effect is really good.
The wedding was settled, even the specifications were set.
This tax increase drama disappointed many people and did not cause a big wave.
The tax increase matter subsided within a few days, and not many people were discussing it.
Zhang Yu sent a fast horse to deliver the letter, and the letter also arrived at Cao Cao and Sun Ce.
Sun Ce happened to be not on the side of Poyang Lake, but in Changsha, which is quite far away.
After receiving the news, Sun Ce immediately called Zhou Yu to discuss it.
"Gong Jin, what do you think about Zhang Yu's plan to join forces with Cao Cao and us to attack Yuan Shu?"
Zhou Yu pondered for a while, and a word burst out of his mouth. "beat."
Zhou Yu's resolute attitude made Sun Ce dazed for a moment, and then said, "Aren't you afraid it's Zhang Yu's conspiracy?"
"No, Zhang Yu has already started to show his fangs. He doesn't take the initiative to attack others like before. This time it's Yuan Shu, and next time it might be us," Zhou Yu said.
Sun Ce's heart tightened slightly, he believed Zhou Yu's judgment, and then asked, "Then, will he be playing any tricks to attack Yuan Shu this time?"
Zhou Yu nodded first, then shook his head and said, "Not very good at it, at least not before Yuan Shu is destroyed. I guess Zhang Yu's strategy is very simple and clear. If Yuan Shu is destroyed, there will be one less enemy, and we will look for opportunities later. expansion."
"Now, no matter who he fights, us, or Yuan Shao going north, or Yuan Shu, he will face threats from two to three parties. If he kills one Yuan Shu, he won't have so many scruples no matter who he fights in the future."
Sun Ce agreed with Zhou Yu's judgment, which made him feel a little heavy.
Zhang Yu's threat is very great, others don't know, they are neighbors, across the Yangtze River, Sun Ce can always feel the strength of Jiangdong,
And it is getting stronger and stronger.
Zhou Yu said again: "Based on Jiangdong's tax increase, their previous tax was neither too high nor too low, but it is certain that Jiangdong did not impose excessive taxes. This is Zhang Yu's preparation for expansion."
"Okay, then we will fight with Zhang Yu this time, and it will be good for us to annihilate Yuan Shu." Sun Ce made a decision.
Similarly, Cao Cao also began to prepare for the letter he received from Zhang Yu.
The difference is that Cao Cao didn't call all their staff this time, but just called Cao Ang.
"Ang'er, Yuan Shu's acceptance of Lu Bu will definitely become a thorn in the side of the forces around us. There is no discussion about eliminating him, but I didn't expect Zhang Yu to initiate it." Cao Cao said.
"Zhang Yu is going to expand, and he will only become more and more aggressive in the future. My child judges that it won't take long before we confront Zhang Yu directly." Cao Ang said.
Cao Cao agreed with Cao Ang's judgment.
"Ang'er, I want you to lead the army to attack Yuan Shu this time," Cao Cao said.
Cao Ang was very surprised, usually Cao Cao personally led the army to conquer the Quartet, but this time Cao Ang was going to lead the army himself.
"Father, the child has never led an army alone."
Cao Cao looked tired, rubbed his temples and said, "I didn't even have a father back then. You have a few uncles to help you. It's no problem."
Cao Ang nodded in agreement.
Cao Cao has long intended to train Cao Ang, and Cao Ang performed very well before.
After being a hostage in Jiangdong for more than a year, Cao Ang seems to be more mature, and he has learned a lot in Jiangdong. Cao Cao relies on him very much.
Cao Cao intended to hand over the country to Cao Ang. This time he was asked to lead the army alone. More importantly, he wanted to cultivate a direct lineage for Cao Ang and accumulate qualifications for Cao Ang.
"Ang'er, I want to send some of my confidants to participate in the scientific examination in Jiangdong, and you can arrange it then." Cao Cao suddenly said to Cao Ang after finishing the expedition.
"Father, if you can pass the exam, you are all talents, and we also need a lot of talents." Cao Ang said.
Zhang Yu's public scientific examination is definitely the best time for all parties to put eyeliner on, but Zhang Yu still dares to do so.
Those who can be admitted are definitely selected from tens of thousands of people, and they are all rare talents.
Giving these talents to the opponent, everyone feels distressed.
Cao Cao sighed and said, "The talent war is the most important thing, and we are all behind. Zhang Yu has accumulated a large number of talents. Once it breaks out in the future, who can resist it?"
"I put people in there not to obtain important information about Jiangdong, but because our previous information was too one-sided. Although we could collect a lot of information, it was too superficial. If you hadn't been in Jiangdong for more than a year, many After collecting intelligence, we will make a completely opposite judgment.”
"Zhang Yu's personal behavior is one way internally and another externally. It is very confusing, and his policies are even more difficult to understand."
"In the beginning, he was hostile to the whole family, who would be optimistic about him. Afterwards, he focused on business, and everyone thought that he regarded money as his life. But if we analyze it according to this, we are all wrong."
"Zhang Yu is hostile to the entire family. He has the confidence. His talents have formed a system, and he has become the person with the most talents among the princes. It is true that he emphasizes business, but he does not despise agriculture. He does not regard wealth as his life. , it can be seen from how rich Jiangdong is.”
"So, to put people in for my father is to clarify the entire Jiangdong system. There are too many things we don't understand."
At this time, Cao Ang felt that Cao Cao's realm was much higher than him, but Cao Cao was willing to join. If there were really a few people who passed the scientific examination, it would mean that he had cultivated a few talents and gave them to the other party.
"Yes, father, the child understands, I will choose someone right now."
The matter was thus decided.
Both Sun Ce and Cao Cao agreed to attack Yuan Shu.
After counting, Zhang Yu received a reply.
Zhang Yu had already started making preparations.
And Sun Ce and Cao Cao also began to prepare.
Yuan Shu couldn't sit still, and the three surrounding families began to prepare for the battle. Although he had an army of one million, Yuan Shu also had a certainty in his heart, knowing the situation of his own army.
Yuan Shu was still sitting in the emperor's dream. Originally, he didn't plan to call out, but now someone else is going to call.
Yuan Shu couldn't sleep well at first, so he asked his general Ji Ling to station troops in Shouchun, and has been strengthening the defense of Shouchun City.
Yuan Shu was panicked, but Zhang Yu was very hopeful.
It's not so fast to go to war. Before that, he has to organize the wedding first.
This time Zhang Yu didn't marry Sun Shangxiang, although they already had a husband and wife, but Sun Ce was caught in the middle, Zhang Yu didn't want to marry Sun Shangxiang at this time, he would have to beat Yuan Shu after all.
She should have married Da Qiao a long time ago, but she has been delayed by the war.
There is no need to prepare too much this time, for a simple wedding, just two or three preparations are enough. The strongest system to dominate the Three Kingdoms
