Bad news?
Cao Pi frowned and looked at Sima Yi.""Sir, why do you say that?"
Sima Yi sighed," Second Young Master, think about it. Who would be the one attacking Yanzhou?"”
"Who is it?"
Cao Pi could not wait and did not want to guess.
Sima Yi said faintly," The enemy is coming from the east. The border with Taishan County is Xu Prefecture!”
Xu Prefecture!
Cao Pi's pupils constricted as he said in disbelief,"
"You mean Cao Biao?"
Sima Yi nodded slowly,"It's very likely him.”
" Impossible!" Cao Pi said in disbelief." I just received a letter from my father two days ago, asking me and Sun Ji to go over. How could Cao Biao have gone to Yanzhou and taken down Taishan County?"”
"Although Xu Prefecture borders Taishan Prefecture, it will take at least three days to get from Xu Prefecture to Taishan Prefecture. This is impossible!”
"Sir, you overestimated Cao Biao! I think it's just Mount Tai bandits making trouble.”
Sima Yi shook his head." No, you're wrong. I didn't overestimate Cao Biao. I underestimated him!"”
"What do you mean, sir?" Cao Pi was startled.”
"Hey-"
Sima Yi sighed,"We've all been tricked by Cao Biao!”
The more Cao Pi listened, the more confused he became.
Sima Yi continued," From the moment Cao Biao sent the letter back to Xuchang, Cao Biao had already set up the big picture. He was waiting for us to sneak in!”
Cao Pi seemed to understand something, but he could not grasp the gist of it.
"Sir, are you saying that Cao Biao was lying to us when he asked father to write a letter back?”
"It's a lie, but it's not a lie!"
Sima Yi sighed softly." Cao Biao asked the Duke of Cao to write a letter back to save his mother, but at the same time, he asked you to go to Xiapi to replace the Duke of Cao to confuse us."”
"He was certain that you wouldn't go and would join forces with Yuan Shao to launch a pincer attack on both sides. Then, Xu Prefecture would be doomed, and there would be no possibility of a comeback!”
"But I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it!”
"All of this is actually this kid's scheme!”
Sima Yi became more and more excited as he spoke. Cao Pi finally understood and his lips trembled slightly.
"Sir, you're saying that Cao Biao had already anticipated all of this and used Father's letter to confuse us and Yuan Shao, then attacked Yanzhou at lightning speed?!”
Sima Yi nodded heavily, then shook his head,""The most terrifying thing is that he didn't predict all of this. He led us to do all of this!”
"Xu Prefecture was originally in a dead end, but it was revived by this move of his!”
Sima Yi looked up and sighed,"
"Such a strategy, such methods, this child is truly terrifying!”
"At first, I thought that he had seized Yuan Shu's territory because he had been hiding for many years. In addition, he was lucky. Now it seems that this is not the case at all.”
Cao Pi's forehead was covered in sweat as he muttered,""Could it be that his betrayal of Xuchang was also premeditated?”
"I don't know."
Sima Yi sighed." This kid's resourcefulness is like a demon. We have to be careful!"”
Cao Pi wiped the sweat from his forehead and licked his dry lips.""Sir, what should we do?”
Sima Yi was silent for a long time before he said," It's too late to send troops to save Yanzhou. We can only respond to the changes without changing. We can continue to act according to our previous plan!”
Cao Pi narrowed his eyes.”
"Not bad!"
Sima Yi's eyes flashed coldly,""If Cao Biao attacks Yanzhou, Xu Prefecture will definitely be empty. If we attack Xu Prefecture now, it will be like pulling firewood from under the cauldron. Cao Biao will definitely not be able to defend in time.”
"So what if he takes down Yanzhou? At the same time, he will lose Xu Prefecture!”
The corners of Cao Pi's mouth finally curled up.”
"Cao Biao, I really want to see what kind of expression you will have when you know that your rear has been taken by us.”
Sima Yi sighed." It's just a pity. We could have sent Cao Biao to eternal damnation, but now we've let him stay in Yanzhou for a little longer."”
Cao Pi smiled cruelly." It doesn't matter. One day, I will personally cut off Cao Biao's head!"”
Sima Yi nodded and suddenly said,""However, after taking down Xu Prefecture, Cao Gong will also be rescued. At that time, you can say that Cao Biao altered Cao Gong's letter and sent you false information.”
"Also, don't touch Sun Ji before capturing Cao Biao! As long as Sun Ji was around, Cao Biao would always be cautious!”
Cao Pi smiled and nodded…
……
Sikong Manor.
Almost all of Cao Cao's generals and advisors were gathered here.
After Cao Ang's death, Cao Pi, as the eldest son, naturally took over Cao Cao's position temporarily.
At this moment, the entire meeting hall seemed a little dull.
They already knew that Taishan County had been breached, and their expressions were solemn.
"Report! Second Young Master, Dong 'e has been breached by Chen Gong with 20,000 soldiers!”
"Report! Reporting to Second Young Master, Rencheng County has been breached by Zhang Liao and Gao Shun with 20,000 soldiers!”
"Report! Reporting to the Second Young Master, Juancheng has been breached by Lu Bu with 10,000 soldiers!”
……
As the news spread, everyone's faces darkened.
Xiahou Dun finally couldn't take it anymore. He slammed the table and stood up.
"Second Young Master, please give this general 100,000 elite soldiers. This general will take back Yanzhou and bring back Cao Biao's head!”
"I'll go too!"
"I'll go too!"
Xiahou Yuan, Yu Jin, and the others were also so angry that their faces turned red and their eyes were spitting fire.
Cao Biao had yet to take revenge for killing his father, and now he had actually taken down the lord's original territory, Yanzhou.
They couldn't take this lying down no matter what!
Xun Yu and Cheng Yu did not say anything. The two of them were clearly the same as Sima Yi. They had seen through Cao Biao's scheme and were extremely shocked.
A situation that was bound to die was actually revived by Cao Biao so casually!
If this kid hadn't killed their lord, they would have persuaded their lord to lower his head and mend their relationship with him.
However, there was still a doubt in their hearts.
Was the lord really killed by Cao Biao?
Xun Yu and the other strategists looked at Cao Pi, who was standing in the hall. The latter was calm.
Cao Pi did not seem surprised that Cao Biao had taken Yanzhou. This surprised Xun Yu and the others. Cao Pi seemed to be unfathomable now.
It seemed that there was indeed an expert guiding him.
Faced with Xiahou Dun and the other generals 'request to fight, Cao Pi said calmly,"
"No rush."
"You've already been bullied by that scoundrel Cao Biao to this extent, yet you're still not anxious?!”
Xiahou Dun's face flushed red and he almost stomped his feet.
Cao Pi remained calm. Instead, he asked,""General Xia Hou, have you finished counting the troops?”
Xiahou Dun sighed helplessly and said,""We have finished counting. Xuchang has a total of 200,000 soldiers and can set off at any time!”
"Good!"
Cao Pi laughed." Leave 50,000 soldiers to defend the city. The remaining 150,000 soldiers will follow me to attack Xu Prefecture. We'll set off tomorrow!"”
Attack Xuzhou!
All the generals widened their eyes in shock.
After a while.
Xiahou Dun shouted,"Alright!" Second Young Master's plan is very good!"
"You attack my Yanzhou, and I will take your Xuzhou. This is a brilliant move! Wonderful! Haha!"
"Second Young Master is brave and resourceful. We have wronged Second Young Master. We are ashamed!”
“……”
Cao Pi could not hide the smile on his face as he listened to the praises of the generals.
Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, and the other strategists were also secretly shocked…
……
The next day, the sunrise the east.
In Xuchang, the 150,000-strong army had been assembled. It was a magnificent sight.
Cao Pi stood on the high platform and looked at everything. His heart surged with emotion and he was filled with lofty sentiments.
Whoosh!
Cao Pi drew his sword and raised it high under the sun.
"Cao Biao killed his father, and the heavens are angry. Today, I, Cao Pi, swear to kill this thief and carry out justice for the heavens by razing Xu Prefecture!”
"flatten Xu Prefecture!"
"flatten Xu Prefecture!"
"flatten Xu Prefecture!"
One hundred and fifty million soldiers shouted in unison, their voices soaring into the sky.
"Woo-"
A long horn sounded.
Cao Pi pointed his sword to the east and shouted,"
"Let's go!"
