"Your Majesty, can Xuchang be the capital of Han?”Cao Cao said coldly.
"Cao Cao, as an official, how can you speak to His Majesty? Your Cao family has received the emperor's favor, do you still have the emperor in your eyes?”A minister at the side couldn't take it anymore and reprimanded.
Cao Cao's eyelids drooped as he turned his head and looked over. His face was expressionless as he said indifferently,"Men, this lord has an affair with Zhang Xiu and intends to murder His Majesty.”
"Cao Mengde, how dare you? You're just a lowly official, how dare you kill…"
Before he could finish speaking, Cao Cao's expression darkened even more. He quickly took two steps forward and slashed down with his sword.
The minister died tragically.
The sharp sword brushed against the official's clothes, and Cao Cao turned his head and said coldly,""Your Majesty, how is Xuchang?"
"Very…very good!" Liu Xie swallowed his saliva and forced a smile.
"Is it Han Du?"
"Yes, yes, my dear minister has put in a lot of effort and is wholeheartedly thinking for the Great Han Dynasty.
I... I'll make you a chariot... Oh no, I'll make you a general. You'll lead the world's soldiers and horses and punish all the disobedient people in the world.”Liu Xie was terrified. After saying that, he looked at Cao Cao with a friendly expression.
He was afraid that Cao Cao would be dissatisfied and slash him. Cao Cao's eyes were like torches as he stared at Liu Xie and laughed. Liu Xie was so frightened by his laughter that he almost fell onto the Dragon Carriage.
"Your Majesty has gone too far. How can I be the Great General? I hope Your Majesty can retract your order.”Cao Cao threw his sword to the side and smiled.
"Gulp!" Liu Xie saw Cao Cao's joy and felt as if he had been pardoned. He said anxiously,"Yes, yes. General, help the Han Dynasty to overthrow the country and save me from water and fire. There will be no objection from all officials in the world.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the officials behind him lowered their heads and sighed. Their eyes were filled with helplessness and frustration. They had thought that the Great Han Dynasty would rise again, but this Cao Cao was a hundred times more cunning and vicious than Dong Zhuo!
Cao Cao didn't reply, instead saying in a deep voice,""Your Majesty, these days have been tiring. You must be tired. Please enter the city to rest!”
"Alright, I'll enter the city to rest now." Liu Xie said anxiously.
"Milords, please!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of carriages entered.
The sun was setting in the west.
Cao Cao's gaze was gloomy as he scanned the crowd. When he saw Cao Chun, he felt extremely stifled.
"Cao Chun, if you don't give me a clear explanation today, I will kill you.”
They were Tiger Leopard Cavalry, all good horses bought from Western Liang. Moreover, the riders were the elites of the elites, and their equipment was the best in the entire army.
However, this cavalry had actually been crippled in one battle. How could Cao Cao tolerate this?
Cao Chun swallowed his saliva and felt a little guilty because even he himself did not quite believe it." My…my lord, that…Zhang Xiu's army has a demon. It can shoot out more than 30 weapons at once, and it will make a loud noise, and…"
"Return? You're still talking nonsense." Cao Cao couldn't take it anymore and kicked Cao Chun away.
"If I don't kill you today, I, Cao Cao, will feel sorry for the many soldiers who died in battle.”Grabbing Heavenly Sword, Cao Cao shouted furiously.
"Lord, please show mercy."
"My lord, even if General Cao Chun has committed countless crimes, he has worked hard even if he has not made any contributions. I hope my lord will think twice.”
For a moment, everyone tried to persuade him.
"Humph, on account of their face, you can avoid death, but you can't escape punishment. Men, remove Cao Chun from his position as general.
Go to the stables and be a groom. Without my orders, you are not allowed to come back.”
Cao Cao rebuked angrily.
Xiahou Dun and the others winked at Cao Chun, signaling him to hurry down so that Cao Cao wouldn't be angry and cut him down.
After Cao Chun left, Cao Cao looked at Xu Chu and said in a deep voice,""Zhongkang, tell me what happened that day.”
" My lord, Zihe is not spouting nonsense. Zhang Xiujun does have a demon. Tong, tong, tong, the kind that can explode. The sound is…" Xu Chu's expression was honest as he described vividly.
"Get lost, you go and feed the horses too.”Cao Cao couldn't take it anymore and scolded angrily. Who the hell were these people?
"Lord, I haven't finished speaking!"
"Talk your ass, get lost.”Cao Cao was so angry that he kicked him.
Xu Chu rolled his eyes and curled his lips."If you want to feed the horse, then feed the horse. I will definitely feed the horse until it is fat and strong, just like me.”
Cao Cao was both in love and anger when he heard this. However, he could entrust his life to such a person.
As Xu Chu and the other man left,
The manor fell into a brief silence.
"My lord, after this battle, I'm afraid you have another opponent in the world.”Xun Yu's expression was solemn as he spoke in a deep voice.
"Wen Ruo is referring to Zhang Xiu?" Cao Cao raised his eyebrows. Xun Yu never spoke nonsense. However, he did not expect that Zhang Xiu would receive such a high evaluation from Xun Yu.
"That's right. This person is not as simple as a boorish man from Western Liang. From his actions, he will be a great enemy of my lord. If he is allowed to grow, he will not be inferior to Yuan Shao.”
Xun Yu said solemnly.
"Not inferior to Yuan Shao?" Cao Cao was stunned. Yuan Shao was the overlord of Hebei, and his strength was ten times stronger than his. Xun Yu actually compared Zhang Xiu to him?
"Ha, I will personally meet this person in the future.”
"My lord, it is inevitable to attack Zhang Xiu, but I have a plan that can make Zhang Xiu be attacked from both sides.”Guo Jia chuckled and bowed.
"Tell me."
" My lord, you have already…" Guo Jia glanced at Xun Yu and continued without leaving a trace,""Now that the emperor has moved the capital to Xuchang, my lord can send a memorial to the emperor to dismiss Liu Biao as the governor of Jingzhou and appoint Zhang Xiu as the governor of Jingzhou.”
"Although it's just a false reputation, Liu Biao will definitely be scared out of his wits. Even if he doesn't break off relations with Zhang Xiu, he'll still have a grudge against him.”
"Hehe, interesting."
Cao Cao waved his sleeves and sat down, smiling,""If Zhang Xiu doesn't accept this edict, it means that he is disobeying it. I can lead all the vassals in the world to attack him together.”
"If he accepts, how can Liu Biao tolerate him? Liu Biao has 100,000 elite soldiers, which can flatten Nanyang at one stroke. If that's the case, why do I need to make a move? This is a fight between snipe and clam, and the fisherman benefits. Can I?"
"My lord is wise." Guo Jiawen laughed.
"My lord, another person can be conferred the title of Lord Xinye and be appointed as the general of Zhennan.”Xun Yu interrupted.
"Marquis? Who is it?" Cao Cao was surprised.
"Zhang Xiu's subordinate, Huang Zhong.
This man was brave in the army, and his martial arts skills were no less than Lu Bu's. Xu Chu and Xiahou Dun fought against this Liao, and it was difficult for them to win even thirty rounds.”
Xun Yu said in a deep voice.
Cao Cao had heard of this matter, but when he heard Xun Yu mention it, he couldn't help but frown and lament,""Such a good general doesn't belong to me, Cao Cao.”
"My lord cherishes talent again!" Guo Jia shook his head and chuckled.
"Forget it. Since he can't be used by me, then I'll destroy him. Wen Ruo, I'll do as you say and list this person as well.”Cao Cao slapped his chair and shouted.
