Gulp! Gulp!
Cao Pi was also going all out. He was only halfway through drinking when he was stopped by Guo Yun.
"Seeing that you're sincere and eager to learn, I'll make an exception and give you some guidance.”
Guo Yun crooked his finger and said,"As the old saying goes, before the three armies move, the rations should be given priority."”
This is the standard for judging the march.”
"No matter how great Yuan Shao's military strength is, it's impossible for him to devour us in one bite. A protracted war is inevitable.”
"Therefore, without a large amount of grain, this war cannot be fought.”
Cao Pi was enlightened.
It was such a simple logic?
In fact, the transportation of grain was the most important thing. Normally, it was impossible to transmit the information of the grain operation.
When the real news came out, the war was almost imminent.
Before Cao Pi could ask any more questions, Guo Yun continued,""With Yuan Shao's prudence, I'm afraid that the lord's work and rest won't be able to detect the movement of the grain. When he really finds out, it will be too late!”
Cao Pi was speechless.!”
"Therefore, we can determine Yuan Shao's intentions from another direction.”
"Drink the remaining half of the pot and I'll tell you.”
Cao Pi was speechless.
After leaving the military camp, Cao Pi was almost shocked as he rode his horse back to the Prime Minister's residence.
Due to his poor alcohol tolerance, he even fell down when he got off the horse.
In the afternoon, the strategists gathered at the Prime Minister's residence again.
"My lord, the latest news is that Yuan Shao's rations have not changed.”
"The supplies didn't leave the camp either.”
"Only the military dispatch has a
Xun
Yu calculated the latest news and said,""According to the current situation, Yuan Shao should not want to move his troops.”
"How confident are you?"
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes, and his expression suddenly changed. He saw Cao Pi staggering in with injuries all over his body."Pi 'er, what happened?"
Cao Ang was dead, and Cao Pi was Cao Cao's eldest son. Even half of Xuchang City recognized Cao Ziheng, let alone the entire court. If he dared to fight against Cao Pi, he was not giving Cao Cao any face.
"Father, father, I lost my footing and fell off my horse.”
Cao Pi answered weakly, and then the smell of alcohol came out.
The strategists frowned.
They immediately thought that Cao Pi must have been drunk driving, which was why he was covered in injuries.
Cao Cao's expression turned from grim to extremely disappointed. He summoned his servants and had them bring Cao Pi back to his room.
"Wait, wait, Father, your son knew how to determine Yuan Shao's intentions, so he fell off his horse in a moment of excitement.”
Cao Pi said breathlessly,""If you want to know if Yuan Shao has the intention to go south, you only need to observe the whereabouts of Yan Liang, Wen Chou
and Yuan Shao…They are the strongest fighting force under Yuan Shao. If Yan Liang, Wen Chou and Yuan Shao leave Jizhou, then my father will have to make preparations."”
"This is the same as Uncle Xu and Uncle Xiahou…"
After saying that, Cao Pi fainted from the pain.
Boom!
Cao Pi's words were like thunder in everyone's minds. Not only them, but even Cao Cao instantly understood. It was as if the clouds had been parted and the sky was clear…This
was the truth!
The war to the south was the real decisive battle between Yuan and Cao. No matter how much Yuan Shao doted on his three sons, he couldn't just let them lead the army. The four court pillars of Hebei would definitely join forces to attack!
Everyone present thought of this at the same time and looked at Cao Pi in unison.
Amazing!
He didn't expect the Second Young Master to have such a sharp mind. This unconstrained leap was almost catching up to Guo Fengxiao!
"What a wake up call!”
"I didn't expect the Second Young Master to be so intelligent…"
The strategists were about to praise him when they heard Cao Cao shout at the servant,""What are you waiting for? Hurry up and call the imperial physician!"
"If Pi 'er has anything to say, bring your head to me!”
After Cao Pi settled down, Cao Cao returned to the hall with a smug expression. It was obvious that there was no problem.
Isn't that so?
There was news of Yan Liang and Wen Chou every day. Recently, the two generals had been staying by Yuan Shao's side and hadn't left Jizhou.
Combined with Cao Pi's opinion, it was almost certain that Yuan Shao had not received the news of salt extraction in Guanzhong.
This was great news for Cao Cao.
More importantly, this idea was actually proposed by his son, which made Cao Cao feel comforted.
Although he's not as good as Guo Yun, he's not bad either.
"I didn't expect Ziheng to have such a wise vision. We were really blind in the past.”
"This is also inherited from the lord's wisdom.”
After knowing that Cao Pi was fine, these strategists were not stingy with their praise.
With this flattery, Cao Cao felt his entire body relax. He slowly said,""That's why you should learn from the young people. Look for yourself. As long as you can grasp the movements of two people, you can analyze the movements of the entire Yuan Shao army. Why waste so much manpower and resources?”
The strategists 'faces turned red and white.
Hiss!
He could even use his son to pretend to be stupid. His lord was really too terrifying!
His level was even higher!
He couldn't afford to offend her, he couldn't afford to offend her!
Cao Cao said earnestly,"Pass down the order to speed up the refinement of Guanzhong salt and sell it to the provinces immediately.”
"Understood!"
After everyone responded, Cao Cao acted like a loving father."If there's nothing important today, don't bother me. I have to accompany Pi 'er.”
"@???@!"
Xun Yu was speechless.
