Chapter 13-Yuan Shu Becomes the Emperor, Cao Xuan's First Call! (New book, tickets!)
Crouching Bull Mountain.
It was September, and the weather was hot.
Cao Xuan, who had just finished a morning of training, was currently in the pond beside the straw hut.
Two pretty handmaidens were currently scrubbing Cao Xuan's back.
In the blink of an eye, a few months had passed.
These few months had been a qualitative change for Cao Xuan.
Compared to a few months ago, Cao Xuan was much stronger now.
With all kinds of tonics and meat supplements, even his head had grown a lot.
His body was full of muscles.
"My dear disciple, I can't bear to part with you.”
Xu Chu leaned against a huge rock by the pool, holding a jar of fruit wine brewed by Cao Xuan in his hand.
Cao Xuan turned around and chuckled at Xu Chu.
"Is Master reluctant to part with me?"
"Are you still reluctant to part with your disciple's fruit wine?”Cao Xuan said with a smile.
"What are you talking about!"
Xu Chu's face immediately turned red." What's wrong with me drinking with you? I've already taught you."”
"Kid, you're also a weirdo. It takes others three to five years to master it, but you've mastered it in three to five months.”
"I really don't know if you'll be even more powerful than Lu Bu when you grow up.”
When Xu Chu said this, he felt a twinge of jealousy in his heart.
This disciple of his really made him both like and jealous.
Not only did he have willpower that completely exceeded his peers, but his talent was also outstanding.
Back when Xu Chu was practicing chopping branches, he had practiced for three years.
Cao Xuan, on the other hand, had mastered it in three months.
Isn't this infuriating?
"Master, what should I start learning now?”Cao Xuan, who was in the pool, looked at Xu Chu.
Xu Chu shook his head." What you need to learn next will have to be taught by me personally."”
"But it might take some time. I'm afraid I'll be preparing to go to war in the next few days.”
War?
Cao Xuan's interest was immediately piqued. She stood up from the pool.
The two maids immediately wiped the water off Cao Xuan's body with a silk cloth.
"Master, you said a few days ago that you were going to war. Who are you going to fight?”Cao Xuan asked curiously.
Xu Chu waved his hand indifferently and said,"It's just a clown who wants to pick a fight. At most, it's a problem.”
"That Yuan Shu guy proclaimed himself emperor two days ago.”
"I don't know how this guy's head grew, but he actually became an emperor.”
"Compared to Yuan Gonglu, his brother Yuan Shao is much smarter.”Xu Chu said in a muffled voice.
Cao Xuan was also stunned when he heard the news of Yuan Shu becoming the emperor.
Thinking back carefully, it was about time.
In the second year of Jian 'an, Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, but was attacked by a group of people and finally defeated and destroyed.
And when Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, the first one to be anxious would definitely be Cao Cao.
Because once someone proclaimed himself emperor, the first threat would be Cao Cao's sole emperor.
Moreover, it was also a provocation to the Han Dynasty, so Cao Cao had to send troops to destroy Yuan Shu.
If Yuan Shu was not destroyed, who knew how many people would become kings and emperors in the world.
This battle was inevitable.
"We haven't decided when to send out the troops yet, but I will definitely go. I won't be around for the next few months, so you can't slack off.”
"Also, you have to brew more of this fruit wine for me. I'll still have to drink it when I come back," said Xu Chu.”
After drying herself, Cao Xuan changed into a fresh set of clothes.
Then, she sat beside Xu Chu and poured herself a bowl of fruit wine.
The two maids immediately brought over the freshly cooked meat.
Cao Xuan, who had just finished his cultivation, was hungry. He began to eat like a wolf or a tiger.
"Master, actually I feel that Cao Gong doesn't need to personally send troops to attack Yuan Shu.”Cao Xuan said as he ate.
Xu Chu immediately frowned." What do you know, child? If Cao Gong doesn't attack Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao might also become an emperor after a while. How terrible would that be?"”
"Master, I'm not saying that I don't want to fight." Cao Xuan immediately shook his head and said,"I'm just saying that there's no need to fight personally."”
Hmm?
"What do you mean?”
"I'm just driving a tiger to swallow a wolf," Cao Xuan said with a smile.”
"Drive the tiger to swallow the wolf?"
Xu Chu still did not understand what Cao Xuan meant.
"Kid, make yourself clear. What do you mean by driving the tiger to swallow the wolf?”Xu Chu said.
Cao Xuan put down the lamb chop in her hand, then took a sip of wine and wiped her hands."
"Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, so he naturally has to fight. However, if Cao Gong sends out his troops, not only will the soldiers be tired, but it's also close to the autumn harvest. This round trip will probably take several months.”
"Not to mention the losses of the soldiers, the consumption of rations is also a huge number.”
"In that case, why not send someone to attack Yuan Shu?”"The Lord of Cao has the Son of Heaven by his side," said Cao Xuan."Isn't it all over with the next imperial edict?"”
"You're still young. You don't understand." Xu Chu shook his head repeatedly.”
"How is the current emperor still the emperor?
If the princes and emperors of this world could command them, then there wouldn't be any dukes here.
You'd better not worry about it. You'll naturally understand when you grow up.”
"Master, I understand. How could I not understand? Don't underestimate me, alright? Tian Zi might not be able to command others, but there is one person that Tian Zi can absolutely command!”
Cao Xuan looked at Xu Chu and said a name.
"Liu Bei."
When Xu Chu heard this name, he could not help but widen his eyes.
"What did you say?" Xu Chu looked at Cao Xuan in surprise.
Cao Xuan chuckled and said,"Master, I'm talking about Liu Bei."”
"Doesn't Liu Bei consider himself a relative of the Han clan?
And now that Liu Bei was in Xuzhou, why didn't Cao Gong issue an imperial edict to Liu Bei in the name of the Emperor to let him beat Yuan Shu?
I think Liu Bei will definitely accept the edict and will spare no effort to attack Yuan Shu.”
The more Cao Xuan spoke, the more shocked Xu Chu became.
When Cao Xuan finished speaking, Xu Chu looked at Cao Xuan as if he was looking at a monster.
"Did you think of this all by yourself?" Xu Chu asked in surprise.
"Yes." Cao Xuan nodded.
Xu Chu did not doubt Cao Xuan at all.
There were usually only a few people in Crouching Bull Mountain.
Madam Ding always came to visit Cao Xuan.
However, Madam Ding could not possibly know about this.
Xu Chu exclaimed in his heart.
What kind of little monster was he teaching?
Putting aside the fact that he was a martial arts prodigy, how could he have learned his strategy without a teacher?
"Just you wait. I'll go back and report this to Cao Gong!”
Xu Chu said as he stood up.
"Master, wait a moment. I haven't finished speaking.
Driving the tiger to swallow the wolf was only the first step. There was still the second step, killing three birds with one stone!”
Xu Chu stopped abruptly and almost staggered.
"What did you say?"
"There are three birds with one stone?"
