The next day, after lunch, Cao Cao gathered all the officials in the main tent.
Recently, the number of military meetings had obviously exceeded that of previous wars.
This was something that could not be helped.
If Xiapi was still not broken, then it would be easier to obtain this huge Xuzhou than to defend it.
He couldn't always send a large number of troops to Xuzhou to keep an eye on Lu Bu.
He could only summon the civil and military officials every day. One person was short, two were long, and the three were easy to discuss.
But in fact, these days, the strategists had already come up with many plans.
For example, Guo Jia suggested that after the siege, Lu Bu's subordinates should rebel and attack Xiapi City from the inside.
Xun Yu suggested that the emperor's edict should be used to reward Lu Bu, who might be used by him in the future.
As for the generals, without exception, they all suggested a strong attack.
After all, the Thunderbolt Chariot was waiting there. Instead of staying at the city gate, it was better to have a good fight.
"Sigh, I didn't expect that Xiapi City would give me such a headache when I've already obtained the five prefectures of Xu Prefecture!”
There were many ideas from all sides, but so far, it seemed that they had not found a way to guarantee victory.
Cao Cao rubbed his temples, feeling frustrated.
Boom! Boom!
Outside the tent, a bolt of lightning struck down from the gloomy sky, as if a storm was about to come.
This time, everyone had an even greater headache.
Once the rain started, the area around Xiapi City would be soaked into mud. Cavalry would not be able to move, infantry would be hindered, and even the Thunderbolt Chariots would be stuck in the mud.
Did the heavens really want to protect Lu Bu?
While everyone was frowning, Xu Chu's expression froze as he looked outside the tent in shock.
F * ck, is there really a rainstorm?
Could it be that Qin Chuan really knew how to observe the astronomical phenomena at night?
That was a rare genius!
"Xu Chu, what are you mumbling about?”
Cao Cao looked at him unhappily.
Everyone was depressed, but he seemed to be very excited.
If it were anyone else, they would have been dragged out and beaten 30 times.
"My lord, I…I have a way to break Xiapi City!”
Cao Cao: ()?
Guo Jia:
Xun Yu,"Eh?"
"Xu Chu, don't spout nonsense in the military. What ideas can you have?”
Who didn't know Xu Chu's silly name?
Even Guo Jia, Xun Yu, and Jia Xu couldn't do anything about it, but you could?
"I think Si River can be used!"
"Si River? Stop talking nonsense. That's a moat. How can it be used to attack a city?”
Cao Ren was the first to express his dissatisfaction.
Don't think that just because the lord likes you, you can talk nonsense without any restraint.
"Why not? Those who got it would be destroyed, using one's spear to attack one's shield!”
F * ck!
Cao Cao looked at Xu Chu as if he was looking at a monster. Had this silly fellow been enlightened? How could he say such knowledgeable words?
On the other hand, Guo Jia, who was at the side, was enlightened by this sentence. He instantly had an idea.
But…
He didn't believe that his thoughts would be the same as a boastful man who only knew how to brag all day long. He immediately said,
"Tell me, what is the method?”
Xu Chu proudly relayed what Qin Xiao had said to him last night with embellishment.
Everyone was stunned when they heard that. They looked at each other and were so shocked by Xu Chu's words that they could not react.
Cao Cao rubbed his eyes and looked at him again.
It's Xu Chu. I'm not seeing things.
"Wonderful! What a brilliant plan!"
"Zhongkang's plan will definitely take Xiapi City easily!”
"Heavens, why didn't we think of this before?”
Cao Ren, Xu Huang, and Xiahou Dun cupped their fists and shouted "666".
This was too awesome. It seemed that he was not only good at bragging.
Guo Jia, on the other hand, was dumbfounded. There was no reason. She had racked her brain to think of this. Why did he seem to have thought of it long ago?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
"General Xu, according to what you said, you knew that it would rain today?”
Guo Jia asked unwillingly. He could not believe that this idiot could come up with such a shocking plan.
"That's not good." When did Xu Chu get promoted to such heights?
This feeling of floating in the clouds was too blissful.
There was no way for him to confess now. He could not say anything about Qin Xiao even if he was beaten to death.
"My lord, I couldn't sleep last night. I observed the weather at night and predicted that there would be heavy rain today.”
Xu Chu looked calm. This was the basic operation, so there was no need to be so excited.
He even came out to observe the weather overnight. Even Cao Ren and the other generals were unwilling to believe him, let alone Cao Cao.
They were all brothers who fought together. Who didn't understand each other?
What kind of person was Xu Chu?
It was not an exaggeration to say that he was invincible in battle.
If you asked him to lead an elite troop into the enemy's formation, he could beat the other party until they knelt on the ground and called him daddy.
However, if you said that he could observe the weather at night, that would be an insult to your intelligence.
Xu Chu saw everyone snickering. Cao Cao was also pretending. He was in a good mood today, so he wouldn't expose his expression. He immediately knew that they didn't believe him.
"What? You don't believe me? I usually don't care about my performance. Actually, when I was four years old, I studied the Book of Changes, the Eight Trigrams, Qimen Dunjia, astronomy, geography, the Four Books and Five Classics.”
Cao Cao's expression was a little unhappy. It was not a problem to brag about such a good plan.
But if you say that, you're putting our intelligence on the ground. We won't agree to such an insulting thing!
"Xu Chu, these words don't sound like you. Who did you hear them from?”
"This…My lord, why don't you believe me? To think that for the sake of my lord's great cause, I worked tirelessly and painstakingly…"
Before he could finish, Cao Cao spat and scolded,
"Are you done? You have a basket of people who don't know how to read, and you don't know if your shoulder pole is a word. You even talk about the Book of Changes, the Eight Trigrams, and Qimen Dunjia. Are you trying to fly?
Tell me, who taught you!"
This scolding caused everyone to hold their bellies and laugh.
Who doesn't like to act cool, but no one does it like you, Xu Chu.
Everything that didn't happen was said out loud.
"I'll talk, I'll talk, okay? My lord, why are you angry?”
Xu Chu looked at Cao Cao aggrievedly. He was just short of punching Cao Cao in the chest.
