"Wan City belongs to Nanyang County, which is also part of Jingzhou. If we go south from Wan City, we can reach the Han River within three days.”
"Therefore, Wan City is the gateway to Jingzhou and the barrier to Xiangyang.”
"It is precisely because of this that Liu Biao formed an alliance with Zhang Xiu. He did not hesitate to provide food and soldiers, and raised Zhang Xiu to guard Wan City and guard the door for him.”
"Now that Cao Cao has conquered Wan City, it is equivalent to a sword hanging on Liu Biao's head that can fall at any time!”
"Uncle, do you think Liu Biao will sit back and watch Cao Cao secure Wan City?”
Su Yi took a sip of tea and asked with a smile.
Cao Cao seemed to have realized something.
" His vision is indeed broad. He is not limited to the gains and losses of Wancheng. He even included Liu Biao…"
Cao Cao nodded.
"Even if Liu Biao wants to use troops against Wancheng, do you think he's a match for Cao Sikong?" he sneered.”
"Of course not."
"Even a hundred Liu Biao's added up wouldn't be Cao Cao's match.”
Su Yi was resolute.
His evaluation made Cao Cao feel comfortable.
"But Cao Cao has Liu Bei in the east, Yuan Shao in the north, Yuan Shu and Liu Biao in the south. He is surrounded by enemies. Can he stay in Wancheng and guard against Liu Biao all the time?”
Su Yi changed the topic and asked.
Cao Cao was shocked.
"Liu Biao only needs to wait for Cao Cao to conquer other places before sending his army north. How many soldiers does Cao Cao need to leave in Wan City to defend it?”
Su Yi asked again.
Cao Cao was silent.
After a while.
He smiled bitterly." Nephew, you're right. Although Cao Sikong has taken down Wan City, it's not easy to hold it firmly."”
"Young Master Su, I heard that Liu Biao relied on the support of the Cai and Kuai Clans to occupy Jingzhou. If Liu Biao sends troops to recapture Wan City, will Cai Mao and Kuai Yue agree?”
Dian Wei suddenly interjected.
"Aiyo, Uncle, this guard looks like a boor. I didn't expect him to have some knowledge.”
A trace of admiration flashed across Su Yi's eyes.
Dian Wei was ridiculed as a "boor" by Su Yi. He was unhappy and could not help but frown.
"Nephew, my guard is right. What do you think?”
Cao Cao nodded in agreement and looked at Su Yi.
"Nanyang is a fertile land in the world. Back then, Yuan Shu destroyed it and lost half of its population.”
"After Liu Biao occupied Jingzhou, the Cai and Kuai families took advantage of Liu Biao's acquiescence to wantonly seize farmland in Nanyang. As far as I know, the Cai family alone has nearly ten thousand mu of fertile farmland near Wancheng.”
"Now that Wan City has fallen into Cao Cao's hands, the Nanyang fields that the Cai and Kuai families have seized could be lost at any time. Uncle, do you think they would be willing to part with it?”
Su Yi unhurriedly revealed the details of the Cai and Kuai clans.
Cao Cao took a deep breath.
In order to suppress Zhang Xiu, he had already sent people to investigate the situation in Wan City and Nanyang.
However, he did not care about what Su Yi said about the Cai Mao and Kuai Yue clans possessing large plots of fertile land in Nanyang.
Su Yi, who lived in seclusion at home all day and could not go out for a year, actually knew this like the back of his hand!
"He is in the mountains, but he looks at the world and sees further than me.”
Cao Cao secretly praised.
After sighing, Cao Cao could not help but say,""Then in my opinion, what should Sikong Cao do to stabilize Wan City?”
"I say, Uncle, let's not talk about these troublesome things. Why don't we drink some tea, bask in the sun, and enjoy this leisure?”
Su Yi did not want to talk about Cao Cao anymore.
Cao Cao forced a smile and said helplessly,""My Yang family has business dealings with the government army, and the war in Wan City is also related to me. That's why I'm so concerned.”
Since his father-in-law had said this, Su Yi had no choice but to continue chatting awkwardly.
He took a sip of tea and said," It's actually quite simple. As long as Cao Cao can hurt Liu Biao, he'll be so badly injured that he won't be able to go north for a few years. Wancheng will naturally be safe."”
"Hurt Liu Biao?"
Cao Cao said," Although Liu Biao is mediocre, he has 100,000 armored soldiers under his command. If we send all our troops north, it will not be easy to hurt him in a short period of time. I'm afraid that if we fight a stalemate, Liu Bei and Yuan Shu will be able to take advantage of it."”
Su Yi's eyes lit up. He secretly praised his future father-in-law for having some knowledge. He knew that it was not easy to defeat Liu Biao quickly.
"It's not difficult to quickly defeat Liu Biao. It's nothing more than using a strange plan and a surprise attack.”
"Strange plan?"
Cao Cao became excited and asked,"What good ideas do you have? Tell me."”
"Under Liu Biao, Cai Mao is in charge of the army and Kuai Yue is in charge. If Liu Biao sends troops north, he will definitely let Cai Mao lead the troops.”
"If Cao Cao wants to defeat Cai Mao, as long as he lets Cai Mao advance quickly and sets up an ambush halfway, he will definitely be able to defeat his army!”
Su Yi casually said a plan.
"Hmm, this is a good idea.”
Cao Cao nodded slightly and said,"But Cai Mao is not stupid. How could he lead his army so rashly?"”
"Simple."
Su Yi sneered,"As long as Cao Cao gives the order to take over the Cai family's land in Wancheng and even Nanyang, Cai Mao will not be afraid of him rushing forward!"”
Cao Cao was enlightened.
