Chapter 21-Jia Xu: "There's a Master Behind the Lord!"”(New book!)
When Cao Cao asked Jia Xu, Jia Xu had his head lowered and his hands were in his wide sleeves, as if the discussion in the tent had nothing to do with him.
However, no one was surprised.
In fact, Jia Xu had always been like this. If Cao Cao had not asked him, he would never have taken the initiative to speak.
And sometimes, even if he opened his mouth, he would follow the crowd.
What did he mean by following the crowd?
Everyone's opinion was his opinion.
Smart people always knew how to protect themselves, so unless it was absolutely necessary, Jia Xu would absolutely not let himself stand at the cusp of the storm.
Perhaps it was also because of this that Jia Xu, who had opposed Cao Cao in the first half of his life, could end well.
Otherwise, the incident at Wan City would have been enough for Cao Cao to kill Jia Xu countless times.
"Ah, my lord, everyone has already said that going to Xiangyang this time is the best choice. This subject also thinks so."
"Wenhe, I want to hear your thoughts.”Cao Cao repeated his words, but this time, his tone was slightly higher.
Jia Xu immediately quivered.
His gaze swept across the faces of Cheng Yu, Xun You, Chen Qun, and the others before he took a step forward.
"I actually don't think Liu Bei will go to Xiangyang. I think Liu Bei will choose another place to establish himself.”
Seeing that he could not dodge it, Jia Xu could only say it.
Hearing Jia Xu's words, Cao Cao's eyes lit up.
As expected.
What Jia Xu said was actually similar to Zhuge Yi.
Cao Cao was very clear about Jia Xu's abilities.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, Cao Cao would not ask Jia Xu.
And every crucial moment, Jia Xu could always make the final decision.
The reason why Cao Cao asked Jia Xu today was to see if Zhuge Yi was right.
"Oh!"
Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and smiled,""Then tell me, Wen He, where will Liu Bei go?”
Jia Xu shook his head repeatedly.
"My lord, I don't know. I only know that if Liu Qi really wants to surrender to you, then Liu Bei going to Xiangyang will be a dead end. With Liu Bei's intelligence, I don't think he will go to Xiangyang. As for where he will go, I don't know!”Jia Xu lowered his head and said.
Xun Rong and Chen Qun wanted to refute.
However, the two of them could tell that Cao Cao seemed to be more interested in Jia Xu's suggestion, so they did not refute it for the time being.
"Wenhe, you really don't know?" Cao Cao looked at Jia Xu and asked.
"I really don't know!" Jia Xu shook his head repeatedly.”
Jia Xu, who had his head lowered, had an ugly expression on his face.
He had an answer in his heart, but he did not dare to say it.
Seeing Xun Rong and Chen Qun staring at him with murderous eyes, how could he dare to say anything?
He had already offended the two of them by saying all this.
One had to know that the Xun Clan and the Chen Clan were the pillars of support for Cao Cao.
If he offended them, would he still have a good life in the future?
Therefore, even if he knew, he would never say anything.
Cao Cao smiled and stopped asking Jia Xu. Instead, he told him the location Zhuge Yi mentioned.
"If Liu Bei wants to escape, is it possible to go to Dangyang and go south to Jiangling?”Cao Cao said loudly.
Hiss!
A series of gasps sounded in the tent.
Everyone was shocked.
Jia Xu, who had his head lowered, was also extremely shocked in his heart.
What Cao Cao said about Jiang Ling was exactly what he was thinking.
Going to Jiangling was definitely a good move.
Jiang Ling was originally an important town in Jingzhou, and the waterway was developed, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
As an important town in Jing Province, Jiang Ling would definitely have sufficient troops and food.
In that case, in the future, he could attack and retreat. It was equivalent to having a foundation. It was definitely the best choice.
Therefore, when Cao Cao mentioned Jiang Ling's name, everyone was stunned.
"If my lord didn't say it, I wouldn't have thought that Jiang Ling is indeed a good place to go!”Cheng Yu, who had a straightforward personality, was the first to agree.
Although Xun Rong and Chen Qun agreed in their hearts, they didn't say anything.
After all, the two of them had just proposed to take Xiangyang first.
However, their gazes still landed on Jia Xu.
His eyes were filled with dissatisfaction.
Jia Xu looked at Xun Rong and Chen Qun's eyes and cried out in his heart that he was wronged.
She thought to herself, Why are the two of you looking at me with such deep hatred?
I didn't say it.
However, the two of them seemed to have determined that it was Jia Xu's relationship.
Jia Xu expressed his innocence.
"Alright, break camp. The Tiger Leopard Cavalry and all the other cavalrymen will charge at the general first. We must rush to Jiangling before Guan Yu arrives. The rest of the generals will follow Dangyang to Jiangling and continue to kill Liu Bei on the way!”Cao Cao waved his hand and gave the order.
The generals left with their orders.
Jia Xu, however, walked out of the tent with a heart full of worries.
"Wen He, Wen He, slow down!" Cheng Yu's voice sounded behind Jia Xu.
Jia Xu stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Cheng Yu.
"Wen He, how did you know that Liu Bei would flee to Jiang Ling?”Cheng Yu, who had caught up with Jia Xu, asked.
"I…"
Jia Xu was speechless.
How would I know!
"Eh?"
Sighing, Jia Xu looked at Cheng Yu."Zhong De, there is a master behind the lord. Liu Bei fleeing to Jiang Ling was not suggested by me, but by someone else!”
