Cao Cao shook his head. If he had a way now, he wouldn't be so troubled.
It was no longer a lack of strategy, but a lack of strength.
In other words, if they had to fight, they might not necessarily be able to defeat him, but Boss Cao's family might also be exhausted.
This was something that Cao Cao did not want to see.
"Zhuiyu, please help me plan!"
Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia. Right now, his greatest hope was that Guo Jia could come up with a solution.
Even the others were looking at Guo Jia.
After all, ever since he returned, he had come up with many strange plans, but they all came true.
Even Zhuge Liang, who was known as the Crouching Dragon, had suffered a few losses at his hands!
"Actually, this matter is quite simple.”
"Now, the Prime Minister has hundreds of thousands of troops. As long as the soldiers 'water combat ability is not comparable to the soldiers of River East, as long as they have the combat ability of the normal navy, River East will definitely not be a match!”
Everyone nodded.
But the problem was that Jiangdong would not give them the opportunity to train their soldiers.
Judging from today's situation, Jiang Dong would probably send navy troops to harass them every once in a while.
Moreover, there was no way to greatly improve the Cao Army's water combat ability in a short period of time.
After all, most of them came from Qingzhou and Xuzhou. Before this, they didn't even know how to swim!
And if the time dragged on, the logistics supply would not be able to handle it at all!
"Zhuiyu, don't keep me in suspense. If you have any ideas, just say it.”
Cao Cao said impatiently.
"Prime minister, then I'll make the arrangements.”
"Zhuiyu, feel free to give your orders. You can order anyone in Cao's camp, including me!”
"Thank you, Prime Minister!"
Guo Jia then looked at Cai Mao.
"May I ask General Cai, if I were to give you fifty thousand Jing State navy, as long as you defend the surroundings of Han Village, I don't ask for merit, but if you can't do it, can you do it?”
"Military Advisor Guo, don't worry. Let's not talk about anything else. If it's just defense, it's more than enough!”
"Alright, I'll give you 50,000 Jing State navy troops to guard the surroundings of Han Village. If anything goes wrong, bring your head to me!”
A cold light flashed in Guo Jia's eyes, and his words were filled with killing intent.
"Understood!"
However, Cai Mao did not hesitate at all. If he could not do this, then he would have wasted so many years leading the Jing state navy!
"Right now, our army has a total of 230,000 soldiers in the north and 120,000 Jing State navy. Other than the 50,000 soldiers that General Cai has commanded, the rest of the navy has been completely dispersed!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the others also guessed Guo Jia's plan, and their eyes lit up.
"On each warship, the Jing State soldiers will be in charge of the main battle, while the northern soldiers will be in charge of supporting them. During this period of time, we will train their tacit understanding.”
This was also the fastest way to increase the Cao Army's combat strength.
"Military Advisor Guo, I…"
Cai Mao panicked when he heard this. One had to know that the Jing State Army was his treasure to gain a foothold in Cao Cao's camp.
Now, most of them were scattered with just one sentence?
"Don't say anything more. After this battle, the establishment will be restored. If there are any more unreasonable discussions, you will be severely punished!”
Guo Jia interrupted Cai Mao.
Now was not the time to be calculative.
Meanwhile, Boss Cao was smiling in his heart.
He was originally unwilling to let Cai Mao control the Jing state soldiers, but now Guo Jia had helped him solve this problem.
In addition, this could be used to deal with River East. It could be said to be a plan to kill two birds with one stone!
"Don't worry, General Cai. After this battle, the Jing state army will still be under your command. I can even guarantee to His Majesty that you will be in charge of the Jing state army!”
Boss Cao was also making empty promises.
After all, Cai Mao was very important to the Cao camp, so he comforted him.
Cai Mao could only helplessly accept this fact.
……
On the other side of the Yangtze River, the Jiangdong Navy was currently docked there.
"Kong Ming, I wonder what kind of strength Envoy Liu can contribute to your proposal of Sun Liu joining forces?”
Zhou Yu sat in the tent and looked at Zhuge Liang.
Although he had already decided to resist Cao Cao, he was disdainful of joining forces with Liu Bei.
After all, in his opinion, Liu Bei could not help Jiang Dong at all.
"My lord is now a guest in Jiangxia and has few soldiers. He only sent Liang to Jiangdong to assist the governor!”
Zhuge Liang's expression did not change. He turned a deaf ear to Zhou Yu's dissatisfaction.
"Oh? Could it be that Zhuge Liang alone could defeat a hundred thousand soldiers?”
"That's right!"
"Then I have something to ask of Kong Ming.”
Hearing Zhuge Liang's confident reply, Zhou Yu felt a little angry.
He had always thought highly of himself, but he did not expect Zhuge Liang to be even more arrogant than him.
"Please speak, Viceroy. I will definitely do my best to share your worries.”
Zhuge Liang acted as if he did not see the displeasure in Zhou Yu's expression and continued to speak.
He already had a plan in his heart. The reason why he was treating Zhou Yu like this was to hide some things.
He had even arranged two paths for Liu Bei.
What he needed the most now was time!
"Although our army is far inferior to the Cao army in numbers, our battle prowess is much stronger than the Cao army.”
"However, even the cleverest housewife cannot cook a meal without rice. The last time General Gan fought at the mouth of the three rivers, he used up more than half of our arrows.”
"In a water battle, arrows come first, so I would like to ask Kong Ming to make 200,000 arrows for me!”
Zhou Yu spoke without hesitation.
In fact, he had even deliberately doubled the number.
If Zhuge Liang was willing to lower his head to him, he wouldn't mind letting him live.
However, if the other party was still so arrogant, then he could not be blamed for being ruthless!
"I wonder when the Viceroy will need these arrows?”
"Within ten days!"
"Alright, I won't need ten days. Within five days, I'll get these two hundred thousand arrows for you!”
Zhuge Liang said confidently, then turned around and left the tent.
