Chapter 573 I'll Go!
Cao Zhang nodded and walked straight to Artaban.
"What are you going to do?"
Artaban looked at Cao Zhang with a horrified expression.
The rest of the people also felt that something was wrong, and they were all approaching Artaban.
Surena even rushed directly to Artaban's side, wanting to protect Artaban behind him.
But in front of Cao Zhang, all these actions were too late.
When Surena was about to stop him, Cao Zhang casually drew his sword and killed Aldaban in front of him.
Everyone present panicked when they saw this scene.
When Surena saw this, he immediately shouted: "Come here, take these two people down for me."
There was a "bang" sound.
The door of the palace was knocked open, and countless Parthian soldiers rushed in from the outside.
In the time it took to burn the incense, more than two thousand people rushed in.
With so many people, Surena and others also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Caozhou Mu, I respect you as a guest of the Han Dynasty. It is not difficult for you to leave your men here. We also have to give some explanation to all the civilians of the Parthian Empire."
Surena didn't want to completely offend Cao Cao, so he chose the most neutral method.
"Oh? Then do I still want to thank you? Do you think these people can stop him?"
As Cao Cao's voice fell, Cao Zhang waved the Fangtian Painted Halberd in his hand, and a red light flashed through.
More than two thousand people in the palace were lying on the ground in an instant.
This time, they finally saw clearly the difference between their group of famous generals and the legendary generals.
Killing two thousand people with one move, even if famous generals like them attack together, they may not be able to achieve such an effect.
This time, everyone present, including Surena, calmed down.
They knew that Cao Cao now had the ability to destroy their country by one person.
A Cao Cao has such ability, but they all know that the strongest person in the Han Dynasty is not Cao Cao, but the emperor's uncle Liu Bei.
They finally understood that Liu Bei was not fighting them seriously at all, but was simply dragging them down.
Thinking that they had really thought that they could attack the Han Dynasty, capture Liangzhou, and divide the Han Dynasty's territory equally, each of them was sweating coldly, as if they were walking around the door of death.
"Everyone, can we talk now?"
When Surena heard this, he smiled bitterly. Is there any need to talk about this?
"Caozhou Mu, just tell me directly, what do you want?"
"It's very simple. I want you to have a truce with Rome and fight against the mighty Han King together. At the same time, I want Anxi to be under my control. Whoever listens to me will have the position of this king."
Upon hearing this condition, Surena fell into deep thought. Cao Cao wanted to develop An An into his chess piece, and it was also the kind of chess piece that could be thrown away at any time.
Just when Surena was about to object, a man stood up.
"Caozhou Mu, there is no problem if you want us to cease the war, or even form an alliance with Rome, but if you want to control Anxi, please forgive me and I cannot agree."
When Cao Cao heard this, he looked at the speaker.
"Who are you?"
"Caozhou Mu, he is Su Lin. If nothing else happens, he will be the next person to become the king."
Surena was afraid that Cao Cao would kill Su Lin, so he quickly stepped forward to stop him and revealed Su Lin's identity, hoping that Cao Cao would let him go.
"No accident? It seems that this accident is bound to happen."
Cao Zhang understood what Cao Cao meant, and walked directly to Su Lin with Fang Tian Huaji.
Before anyone could say anything, Su Lin closed his eyes completely.
In the blink of an eye, Cao Zhang killed two famous generals, and the two men had no ability to resist at all. Surena had completely understood that they had no right to resist at all.
"Everything depends on Cao Zhoumu's advice."
With Surena's words, Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay, now I declare that Surena is the king of peace. Anyone who dares to disrespect him will be disrespectful to me. As for the consequences, I think it goes without saying that you all should understand, right?"
After Cao Cao finished speaking, he pointed to the two corpses on the ground.
Surena on the side looked at the powerful Cao Cao, with a gloomy face, but still stepped onto the throne.
"Pass my order to convey the goodwill of alliance to Rome immediately. Let's see what Rome says first."
Hearing this, everyone nodded immediately.
After everyone left, Cao Cao looked at Surena.
"You are very good. Among these people, you are the one I admire most. This is why those who opposed me are dead, but you are still alive. But I hope you will not disappoint me. People like Cao Zhang, I have three, and it only takes me half a day to destroy you."
After speaking, Cao Cao patted Surena on the shoulder, laughed, turned around and left with Cao Zhang.
When Rome received the news of the alliance from Parthia, everyone was confused.
The two sides have been fighting for so long and so many people have died. How can they say no to fighting? This alliance is not impossible, but there are so many casualties on both sides. What should we do?
"We will not disagree with the alliance unless all our losses are compensated, half of Parthia's territory is handed over to us, and all are evacuated from our Roman territory."
"Yes, unless these conditions are met, we are firmly opposed to it."
Just as the group of people were shouting, a voice suddenly came to mind.
"Everyone, you may have forgotten that I am the king now, right?"
After the voice fell, everyone present looked at the person on the throne.
"King Sulla, do you agree with the alliance?"
Looking at the chaotic palace, Sulla frowned slightly, and after a long silence, he nodded and said, "I agree."
Hearing this voice, the palace was completely quiet.
Since Sulla became king, there have been voices of opposition in all parts of Rome. Sulla has no qualifications and no achievements. If he had not relied on his strength as a famous general, he would have been kicked out of the palace long ago, and he might not even have the opportunity to see the king.
But such a person became the king, and all the voices of opposition disappeared in just one day, and even the body was not seen.
The disappearance of the voice of resistance does not mean that the ministers agree, but they all know that behind Sulla stands Sun Jian of the Han Dynasty, so the dissatisfaction with Sulla can only be suppressed in their hearts.
"King, don't forget that we lost 300,000 soldiers in this war. If you agree to the alliance now, what will the 300,000 soldiers we lost count for?"
"Yes, what counts?"
Listening to the growing opposition, Sulla frowned slightly.
"Everyone, do you think I want the alliance? Or do you think we can decide Rome now?"
Hearing this, everyone was silent.
Fabian hesitated again and again, and still asked, "Who is it?"
"Well, I just conveyed his meaning on his behalf. If you want to oppose, I will give you my throne. You lead Rome to resist him. If you win, you will be the king, but if you lose, I can't do anything about it."
Hearing this, everyone was silent.
Go against Sun Jian? If they could really fight, Caesar would have led all of them to resist, but Sun Ce's shot always echoed in their hearts.
After hearing that there was no opposition, Sulla directly ordered to go to negotiate peace.
When Gu Rubing got the information, Parthia had already started to negotiate peace with Rome.
Looking at the intelligence in his hand, Gu Rubing suddenly felt some pressure.
Liangzhou only had Huang Zhong and Taishi Ci, who held 100,000 soldiers and horses in their hands. It was obviously difficult to resist the coalition forces of Parthia and Rome.
Read the error-free version! 6=9+Shu_bar released this novel for the first time.
The speed of the truce and peace between Parthia and Rome even exceeded Zhuge Liang's judgment, but Zhuge Liang soon figured out the means of Sun Jian and Cao Cao.
"They are not strong enough in the Central Plains, and now they have gone to other places, holding the emperor hostage to command the princes, and making a puppet. It's a pity they can think of it."
Listening to Zhuge Liang's whisper, Gu Rubing also understood it instantly.
"Prime Minister, what should we do now?"
"My lord, the only way now is to solve the troubles of Rome and Parthia first, otherwise Liangzhou will always be restrained. In comparison, it is easier to solve the problem in the west."
"Okay!"
Gu Rubing followed Zhuge Liang's advice and prepared to send people to Liangzhou.
"My lord, no, this time we can only go to Liangzhou, and none of the soldiers here can move."
"No one can move? Then what's the point of us going there?"
"No way, the difference in strength between our two sides is not that big now. If we withdraw troops from Jiaozhou, I'm afraid the other side will seize our opportunity and attack us, and our losses will be great."
Gu Rubing nodded, and took Zhuge Liang with him to Liangzhou.
However, not long after Gu Rubing left, Cao Cao and Sun Jian had already received the news.
Both of them chose to take advantage of Gu Rubing's absence to jointly besiege Jiaozhou.
This time they must make a route, at least to ensure that there are no obstacles to communication between the two.
Zhuge Liang had expected the counterattack of the two, and had already given instructions.
As the two took action, Guan Yu immediately began to shrink the defense line and took the initiative to make way.
In the end, only Yulin County and Cangwu County were in Gu Rubing's hands in Jiaozhou, and the rest were divided by Sun Jian and Cao Cao.
At the same time, Wu County.
Lu Xun and Sun Quan were quite relaxed here.
The battle in Jiaozhou was fierce, and Sun Jian's order to them was to hold on and wait, and Gu Rubing had not sent anyone here.
Not seeing Gu Rubing's army for a long time reduced Sun Quan's fear a lot, and even had some other ideas.
"Bo Yan, father told us not to leave the city. Now that there is no threat from Liu Bei, should we do something?"
Lu Xun looked at Sun Quan when he heard the words, and saw Sun Quan's burning eyes, and he suddenly had some bad feelings in his heart.
He could feel that this young master was going to be restless again.
"Young master, let's be honest. Even if we took Liu Bei's territory with all our heart, we certainly can't keep it. We still have to give it back to him, and we have to waste a lot of troops. Now the lord is short of troops, and our 100,000 troops are already the lord's last trump card, so we can't use it indiscriminately."
Sun Quan saw that Lu Xun did not agree with his plan, and he was somewhat dissatisfied.
He felt that he saw a very good opportunity for war.
Starting from Wujun, before Gu Rubing could react, they captured Xuzhou, then Yanzhou, and finally directly attacked Sili.
As long as he is fast enough, he can seize Sili without anyone noticing, even if there is an accident on the way, but so what, he also holds the land of Xuzhou and Yanzhou, even if it is If you can't defeat them, then you can retreat. Where can you retreat to? If you can stand in one or two cities like this, it won't be in vain for you to go out.
Without Gu Rubing's suppression, Sun Quan felt that he was capable again.
Sun Quan didn't care that Lu Xun rejected his plan.
Late at night, Sun Quan found his White Wing Guards and quietly left the city with an army of 60,000 people.
But these 60,000 troops were not a small number, and soon the news that Sun Quan was leading the army out of the city reached Lu Xun's ears.
When he thought of the plan Sun Quan told him during the day, Lu Xun's expression suddenly changed and he immediately sent someone to chase him.
Sun Quan led an army of 60,000. At the beginning, he did follow his plan and quickly swallowed up most of Xuzhou without being effectively blocked.
As for the messengers that Lu Xun photographed, they were all captured by Sun Quan.
As long as you don't take it seriously, you haven't heard or seen the so-called messenger.
A few days later, just when Lu Xun was about to swallow up the entire territory of Xuzhou, a voice that frightened Sun Quan appeared not far away.
"Jiangdong Rats, how dare you come out? I just want your Grandpa Zhang Liao to come and relax your muscles and bones."
Upon hearing Zhang Liao's name, Sun Quan turned around and ran away.
Zhang Liao quickly chased after him.
Originally, Zhuge Liang's arrangement was to try not to conflict with Sun Jian before he came back.
But who knew that Sun Quan would be so dishonest and come out of Wu County, which Guan Yu couldn't stand.
The Jiangdong rats actually dared to attack Xuzhou. Guan Yu felt that he had been underestimated.
After learning about Sun Quan's number, Guan Yu looked at everyone present.
"Everyone, Sun Quan led 60,000 Yangzhou troops and entered the territory of Xuzhou. There is no decent defense inside Xuzhou, so we need our people to support it. But now, Cao Cao and Sun Jian, both sides have gathered an army of 200,000 troops. Far away, so not many reinforcements can be sent out this time. No matter who of you goes, the main thing is defense. "
After hearing Guan Yu's words, everyone looked at each other. The legendary generals could not leave. The only ones who could go were the famous generals present. But everyone knew that when Gu Rubing and Zhuge Liang came back, there would be a big battle in Jiaozhou. Who could Don't want to miss it.
As for Sun Quan, none of them took Sun Quan seriously. They were more concerned about the need to defend once they arrived in Xuzhou. This would be very passive and would miss the battle in Jiaozhou.
Seeing that no one came forward, Guan Yu also knew what they were thinking, so he smiled helplessly.
"I'll go." (End of chapter)
