Chapter 18-Cao Cao's Instinct! (New book!)
Zhuge Yi's face was tinged with melancholy.
Although he didn't have any relatives in his previous life.
However, it was hard to get used to suddenly coming from a familiar place to an unfamiliar place.
And the things in his backpack proved that he had once lived in that era.
He wondered if archaeologists would find his red star Erguotou wine bottle in a tomb a thousand years later.
He knew that it would be another big event that would shake the archaeological world.
Cao Cao could see the loneliness and melancholy in Zhuge Yi's eyes through the fire.
What Cao Cao couldn't understand was why a young man's eyes had such vicissitudes.
"Sir, can you give me another bowl?”
Xu Chu's voice interrupted Zhuge Yi's thoughts at an inappropriate time.
There was nothing he could do. Xu Chu only wanted to say that the wine was too delicious.
It was better than all the wine he had drunk before.
It was not an exaggeration to say that it was the Gods Nectar.
No wonder the other party didn't cut off the Drunken Immortal Brew he brought.
"Haha, come, let's drink!" Zhuge Yi came back to his senses and poured another bowl of wine for Xu Chu.
Xu Chu held the wine bowl as if he had found a treasure.
"Sir, don't take offense. Zhongkang loves wine as much as his life!”Cao Cao laughed.
Zhuge Yi smiled and shook his head.
He had eaten the lamb chop and drank the Erguotou. Wang Qinian was still squatting at the side, watching.
"Sir, your predictions are divine. Liu Bei is indeed heading towards Changban Hill, but we didn't manage to capture him during the battle at Changban Hill.”Cao Cao said regretfully.
Liu Bei was as slippery as a loach.
It would not be easy to capture him.
"Now that Liu Bei has disappeared from Changban Hill, does Mister know what Liu Bei is thinking?”Cao Cao asked.
Zhuge Yi put down his wine bowl seriously when he heard Old Cao's question.
"Liu Bei will definitely head straight for Jiang Ling!”Zhuge Yi said firmly.
Jiang Ling?
"Why?" Cao Cao was stunned.
Zhuge Yi vaguely remembered that after Liu Biao died, Liu Biao's son, Liu Qi, wanted to surrender to Cao Cao.
Liu Bei persuaded Liu Qi not to surrender.
Later, Zhuge Liang suggested to Liu Bei that they should go south to Jiangling.
Jiangling was an important town in Jing Province, with developed waterways.
Moreover, they had sufficient rations and soldiers. As long as they could take down Jiang Ling before Liu Qi could react, even if Liu Qi surrendered to Cao Cao, they would have a place to settle down and a foundation.
Zhuge Liang, you old brat, you ran away with Liu Bei.
You can't blame Yours Truly for this.
"Jiangling is an important town in Jingzhou. It has sufficient troops and food. Once Liu Bei occupies Jiangling, he will have another foothold. At that time, it will be unjust for the Prime Minister to chase Liu Bei away!”
"So, Liu Bei went south and will definitely seize Jiang Ling. Moreover, didn't the Prime Minister realize that Liu Bei lost a person at the Battle of Changban Slope?”Zhuge Yi asked.
One person was missing?
Cao Cao pondered for a moment. Indeed, there seemed to be one person missing.
And it was someone he was extremely familiar with.
"Sir, are you talking about Chief Yun?" Cao Cao suddenly remembered.
Zhuge Yi nodded.
"Liu Bei is fleeing. How could Guan Yu abandon Liu Bei and leave alone?”
"Unless he has an important mission!"
Cao Cao immediately understood what Zhuge Yi meant.
"Sir, are you saying that Guan Yu went ahead to capture Jiang Ling?”Cao Cao's eyes widened.
"That's right. If I'm not wrong, Guan Yu must have taken the water route and headed south to Jiang Ling. If the prime minister is late, I'm afraid Jiang Ling will have to hand over to Guan Yu!”
Cao Cao suddenly stood up.
"Thank you for your reminder, sir. Otherwise, I'm afraid Liu Bei would have succeeded. Guan Yu is brave and good at fighting. If he enters Jiang Ling, it will be difficult to recapture him!”
As he spoke, Cao Cao bowed to Zhuge Yi.
Wang Qinian, who was beside him, was shocked.
This was incredible.
Who was Cao Cao to bow to Zhuge Yi?
Who was this Zhuge Yi in front of him?
"Sir is a great talent, how can you bend over here? If Sir does not give up, please be the commander of the army. I hope Sir will not refuse!”Cao Cao sent out another invitation.
However, Zhuge Yi still shook his head.
What was so good about a military commander?
It was better to have the freedom of the logistics camp.
"I appreciate the Prime Minister's good intentions, but I feel that this supply camp is quite good. In any case, we are all working for the Prime Minister. What do you think, Prime Minister?"
Cao Cao, who was rejected by Zhuge Yi again, was not angry. Instead, he felt even more guilty.
When he first met Zhuge Yi, he was still wondering why Zhuge Yi approached him.
But look, they are only willing to stay in the supply camp.
He wasn't even willing to be a military commander.
It was him who had judged a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart.
"Alright, since Sir is unwilling, then let Sir do as he pleases. It's late, so I won't disturb Sir!”With that, Cao Cao left with Xu Chu.
On the way back to the main tent, Cao Cao clasped his hands behind his back.
"Zhongkang, who do you think this Zhuge Yi is?”Cao Cao frowned and said,"I feel that he has a huge secret."”
Xu Chu shook his huge head, indicating that he did not know either.
However, Cao Cao felt that Zhuge Yi and Zhuge Liang were somehow related.
Otherwise, why would Zhuge Liang's every move be within Zhuge Yi's calculations?
Was it a coincidence?
That shouldn't be the case. That would be too much of a coincidence.
