The person who poured cold water was Jia Xu.
"Jia Wenhe, you think too highly of that thug. He's just a nobody, how could he be a match for General Zhang?”
Guo Tu mocked.
"But it was this nameless person who killed your Second Young Master, went alone into Ye City for 500 miles, washed Ye City with blood, and killed your mistress.”
Jia Xu was expressionless as he exposed the Yuan Family's wounds.
Guo Tu frowned, his eyes filled with embarrassment.
"He was just lucky!"
"Brother Wenhe, do you really think that a kid who just entered the battlefield can become a genius Divine General who is comparable to Huo Qubing overnight?" he snorted disdainfully.”
"This old man only knows that Cao Cao has always had the ability to recognize people.”
"He has countless Great Generals under him, but he doesn't use anyone. He must have his reasons for choosing Cao Lie.”
Jia Xu added.
Guo Tu laughed coldly." Although Cao Cao is an ambitious man, there are times when he makes mistakes. Otherwise, he would not have been defeated by General Zhang back then. Even his son and his beloved general were killed.”
Zhang Xiu couldn't help but feel proud when he mentioned the battle back then.
"Mr. Guo, you have a point."
Zhang Xiu's face was filled with pride as he shouted," Pass down my order. Gather the troops and immediately head north. I was going to personally chop off Cao Lie's head and offer it to Deacon Yuan."”
Seeing Zhang Xiu so determined, Jia Xu shook his head and stopped persuading him.
"General Zhang, my lord still has a wish. Please grant it!”
Guo Tu cupped his hands again.
"What instructions does Deacon Yuan have?" Zhang Xiu hurriedly asked.”
"My lord heard that after Cao Ang died in Wan City, General Zhang collected his bones and buried him.”
"Cao Cao connived at his nephew killing Second Young Master. Deacon Yuan is deeply resentful and wants to ask General Zhang to dig up Cao Ang's tomb and grind his bones into ashes to take revenge on Cao Cao!”
Guo Tu gritted his teeth and made a request.
"Good!"
" Yes!" Zhang Xiu nodded happily and shouted," Pass on my orders. Immediately send someone to dig up Cao Ang's tomb and grind his bones into ashes. This will satisfy Deacon Yuan!"”
Guo Tu was very gratified and praised Zhang Xiu again.
After the military meeting ended, everyone left.
Jia Xu stayed behind.
"I've already decided to rely on Deacon Yuan. If Wen He still wants to persuade me to surrender to Cao Cao, then don't open your mouth.”
Zhang Xiu waved his hand impatiently.
"General is determined to be enemies with Cao Gong.”
"This old man is just reminding General that if you really dig up the Cao Family Young Master's tomb, there will be no way out.”
"At that time, Cao Gong will definitely fight to the death with General!”
Zhang Xiu's expression turned cold and he fell silent.
After that.
He snorted disdainfully and said proudly," Deacon Yuan will definitely win the decisive battle between Yuan and Cao. Cao will definitely lose. I want to fight him to the death. Why do I need to retreat?!"”
Jia Xu was speechless.
"In this battle, Mister doesn't need to follow the army. You and Hu Che 'er can stay behind to guard Wan City.”
Zhang Xiu was dissatisfied with Jia Xu's objection. He waved his hand and turned around, his back facing him.
Jia Xu's eyes flashed with a trace of subtlety, but he wasn't angry and just calmly retreated.
The next day.
15,000 Zhang Lianjun troops marched north from Wan City to meet the Cao army from the south.
…
A hundred miles north of Wancheng.
Cao Cao's main camp, the central tent.
"Reporting to General, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Yun have led 15,000 troops north and are closing in on our army.”
The Royal Guards entered the tent and reported the latest news.
The expressions of the generals in the tent turned slightly cold.
Especially Yu Jin, who had experienced that painful defeat back then. When he heard that Zhang Xiu had come, he couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.
"Very good!"
Cao Lie slammed the table and stood up, saying happily,""I was afraid that he would hold on and not fight, delaying time. Now that he has delivered himself to my doorstep, I can finish it in one go!”
Zhang Liao, Yu Jin, and even Wen Chou had seen Cao Lie's God of War with their own eyes. At this moment, their reactions were calm.
Cheng Yu's expression changed slightly." Young Master Zizhao," he hurriedly said." The enemy army is twice as large as ours. You must remain calm."”
"In the Battle of Dangyin, young master Zizhao was also outnumbered and won. Mister Cheng, you have to believe in young master.”
Without waiting for Cao Lie to speak, Zhang Liao stepped forward.
"The battle that day was with Yuan Jun, and now we're facing Zhang Xiu. He has four thousand cavalry under him!”
Cheng Yu said solemnly.
As soon as he finished speaking.
Wen Chou stepped forward and said," The black-armored cavalry under Young Master's command are so elite. I was defeated by Young Master that day. You don't have to be too afraid."”
"But those are Western Liang's cavalry, the strongest cavalry in the world. Your Yuan family's cavalry can't compare to them.”
"Moreover, there are still four thousand of them!”
"Young master Zizhao, forgive me for being blunt, but please be careful in this battle.”
Cheng Yu cupped his hands at Cao Lie and advised him solemnly.
"So what if it's the Western Liang cavalry!"
Cao Lie's eyes were filled with disdain as he said sternly,""I have my own methods to defeat the enemy. There's no need for you to say anything more, just prepare for the battle.”
These overbearing words caused Cheng Yu's body to tremble, and he didn't dare to say anything more.
"Guo Fengxiao once said that this child has the demeanor of the lord. Today, it seems that he is even more domineering and violent than the lord."
"Back then, the lord's army was several times Zhang Xiu's, but he still could not gain the upper hand. I wonder what brilliant plan he has?”
Cheng Yu secretly exclaimed in his heart.
Then, he said," Even if General can defeat the enemy in one battle, our army is too small. We will not be able to wipe out the enemy. Once Zhang Xiu escapes back to Wan City and holds on without fighting, it will not be easy for General to pacify Zhang Xiu within two months.”
Cao Lie remained silent.
After a while, he shouted,"Who is guarding Wan City?"”
"Reporting to Young Master, Jia Xu is guarding Wan City.”the Embroidered Uniform Guards replied.
"Jia Xu!"
Cao Lie's eyes gleamed.
He immediately called for a pen and ink and wrote a book.
"Quickly send this letter of surrender to Wan City and hand it over to Jia Xu!”
Cao Lie ordered.
The Brocade Guard took the letter and left.
"Once Jia Xu surrenders, Zhang Xiu will be homeless. Let's see where he can escape to!”
Killing intent burned in Cao Lie's eyes.
"Jia Xu is Zhang Xiu's trusted advisor," Cheng Yu said curiously."How can Young Master be so sure that he will surrender?"”
"If Zhang Xiu wins, Jia Xu might not surrender. If I win, that Poison Warrior will definitely surrender!”
Cao Lie's words were quite mysterious.
"Forgive my stupidity, but please tell me more.”
Cheng Yu cupped his hands in confusion.
"Jia Xu is best at protecting himself.”
"After Wang Yun killed Dong Zhuo, he wanted to kill all the Liangzhou people. In order to protect himself, he persuaded the Liangzhou generals to return to Chang 'an and wash the capital with blood.”
"Later, Li Guo and the other generals killed each other in Guanzhong. In order to protect himself, he decisively joined Zhang Xiu.”
"Now, if Zhang Xiu is defeated by me, do you think he will surrender to me in order to protect himself?”
Cao Lie's unhurried words exposed Jia Xu's character from top to bottom.
"He is so young, yet he has such insight. He can actually see through the famous poison warrior so thoroughly?”
"This insight is not something that ordinary people can have. This is the talent of a hero!”
Cheng Yu was secretly shocked, and his eyes were filled with respect.
At this moment, even though he was suspicious, he didn't dare to object.
"Pass down the order!"
Cao Lie waved his hand and shouted,"Break camp and go south. Destroy Zhang Xiu!"”
The seven thousand Cao troops rolled south.
The dark clouds of war had covered the Nanyang Continent.
