"Sikong?"
After a long time, Guo Jia called out softly.
Cao Cao's eyes moved like a dead fish and landed on Guo Jia's face. However, his mouth was still tightly shut and he did not speak.
Suddenly.
" Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Cao Cao muttered. With a swish, he pulled out his sword and pointed it at the scout with killing intent. His voice was like thunder.
"Speak! Are you lying about the military situation?"
The scout was so frightened that his legs trembled as he kowtowed repeatedly.
"Everything I said is true, there is no falsehood. Sikong Mingjian!”
Hearing this, Cao Cao's face turned dark.
Guo Jia, Xun Yu, and the others also frowned.
Because they were also dumbfounded at this moment.
Cao Jun had just fallen out with Si Kong some time ago, snatching the Red Hare Horse and killing his way out of Xuchang.
How did they take down Rang City in the blink of an eye?!
This was simply a fantasy. No one would believe it for a moment.
How could a good-for-nothing playboy who did not abide by etiquette and only knew how to play all day suddenly attack Rang City, the old nest of Zhang Xiu, a vassal?
In the hall, everyone frowned and fell into silence…
After a long time, Cao Cao suddenly laughed.
"Haha…"
The civil and military officials looked at each other. Sikong was…
Dumb?
Xu Chu did not care much. He stood up and asked hesitantly,"Sikong, why are you laughing?"
Cao Cao's face darkened as he sneered,""Cao Jun, oh Cao Jun, your plan is really too stupid. It's fine to deceive a three-year-old child, but you want to deceive your father? This is ridiculous!"
Xun Yu's eyes trembled." Sikong, are you saying that this is Cao Jun and Zhang Xiu's scheme?" he asked hesitantly.”
"What else?" Cao Cao sneered.
Xun Yu nodded. In fact, he did not believe that Cao Jun could take down Rang City alone. It was simply impossible.
Cao Cao laughed coldly." It seems like Cao Jun has indeed defected to the enemy. Zhang Xiu is still as stupid as ever. He is even more stupid than I thought. He actually believed Cao Jun and used such a stupid plan. Haha…"
Guo Jia also nodded slightly. Although he was somewhat puzzled in his heart, wasn't this scheme a little too ridiculous? Moreover, what was his intention?
Although he couldn't understand it at the moment, he would rather believe that this was indeed a conspiracy.
Because Cao Jun had taken down Rang City, this was a myth that even a three-year-old child would not believe…
Although Cao Cao was laughing, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Clearly, his dissatisfaction with Cao Jun had once again risen to a new height.
Not only did he seek refuge with the enemy who killed his brother, but he also used such a stupid scheme. It was simply a disgrace to the Cao family!
After thinking for a moment, Cao Cao said coldly," Everything will proceed according to plan. I will personally lead the army to attack Rang City and capture that stupid pig Cao Jun!"”
Cao Cao was determined to win Rang City.
Just like Guo Jia said, taking down Rang City was crucial to the final battle with Yuan Shao in the future.
Now that he heard from the scouts that Cao Jun had taken down Rang City, he couldn't wait any longer.
Therefore, it was inevitable for him to personally lead the troops for Zhang Xiu and Rang City.
"We accept your orders!"
Hearing Cao Cao's decision, the officials and generals naturally had no objections. After all, taking down Rang City was of great significance…
At this moment, Cheng Yu, who had been silent all this while, stood up.""My lord, if we want to attack Zhang Xiu, we have to take him down quickly to prevent Yuan Shao from launching a sneak attack and causing chaos in Xuchang!”
Hearing this, Cao Cao's anger subsided and he asked,""Then how should we quickly take down Zhang Xiu?”
Cheng Yu frowned slightly." In my opinion, for this expedition, we can send a general to Rang City to make a ruckus. After the battle with Zhang Xiu, we can pretend to retreat and lure Zhang Xiu out of Rang City?"”
"Then, my army will press forward and surround Zhang Xiu in three directions. Otherwise, if Zhang Xiu escapes back to Rang City and holds on without fighting, it won't be easy to take him down quickly.”
Cao Cao shook his head slightly." Zhang Xiu is the Spear King of the Northern Lands. He also has tens of thousands of Western Liang cavalry. It's not easy to crush him head-on!" What if Zhang Xiu didn't come out? Wouldn't that be…"
Just as everyone was frowning.
Guo Jiacheng's confident voice sounded,"If Zhang Xiu fights, he will not be able to return to Rang City. If Zhang Xiu doesn't come out, we can also break it!"
"Why?"
Cao Cao, Cheng Yu, and the others all revealed puzzled expressions.
"Because Zhang Xiu has a strategist under him, Jia Xu!" Guo Jia smiled.”
"Jia Xu?"
Cao Cao was stunned.
Guo Jia did not answer the question." My lord, please draft a surrender letter and send it to Rang City and give it to Jia Xu."”
"Once Jia Xu surrenders, how can Zhang Xiu return to Rang City? At that time, he and his army will become homeless wretches, where can they escape to?!”
Cao Cao was still confused."
"Why is Fengxiao so certain that Jia Xu will surrender?”
Guo Jia laughed." Because he's Jia Xu. He's the Jia Xu who would rather die than die!"”
Looking at the few people who still had some doubts, Guo Jia said unhurriedly,"Who is Jia Xu? When Dong Zhuo was killed, in order to protect himself, he advised Li Jue to attack Chang 'an, causing Chang' an to suffer an undeserved disaster. Corpses were strewn everywhere, and blood flowed like rivers. The Han Dynasty fell completely, but he survived.”
"The lord raised his army to save the king. Jia Xu advised Li Jue to surrender and beg for forgiveness. Li Jue was furious and wanted to kill him, but Jia Xu decisively left Li Jue and went to Zhang Xiu.”
"My lord personally marched against Zhang Xiu, and the army pressed down on the border. Jia Xu has surrendered again!”
"That's why Jia Xu's bottom line is to ensure his own safety. He doesn't care about the others, even if he has to sacrifice the lives of countless people. As long as my army is pressing down on the border and I secretly promise him some benefits, do you think he will surrender or not?”
Xun Yu and the others looked at each other when they heard this. They could see the shock in each other's eyes.
Guo Jia's analysis made them gasp in amazement.
This was the ability to see through people's hearts. It was different from strategy. It was a game of people's hearts!
As expected of the genius Guo Jia!
"Pass down the order!"
Cao Cao was full of confidence. He waved his hand and shouted,"" Xiahou Yuan, personally select 70,000 elite soldiers and follow me to Rang City. Xiahou Dun, Yu Jin, the two of you will lead 10,000 elite soldiers as the vanguard…"
"The rest of you, stay in Xuchang!"
……
On the other side.
Lu Lingqi followed Cao Jun all the way to the front of Zhang Xiu's City Lord's Mansion. She still couldn't believe that everything before her eyes was real.
Lord?
Did Cao Jun really become the lord of Rang City?!
However, Lu Lingqi saw that the people kneeling in front of the City Lord's Mansion were Zhang Xiu's soldiers and generals.
This scene made her extremely shocked as she looked at Cao Jun in a daze.
Cao Jun did not turn to Zhang Xiu.
On the contrary!
Cao Jun had used some unknown method to take down Rang City and even made all of Zhang Xiu's generals and soldiers bow down to him like a god!
How was this done?
An unfilial son of the Cao family, who was regarded as useless by everyone, actually casually defeated a duke, Zhang Xiu?
Even someone as powerful as her father, Lu Bu, would not be able to do it in such a short time…
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Lu Lingqi would never have believed it!
All of this formed a huge mystery in Lu Lingqi's mind.
In Lu Lingqi's eyes, Cao Jun was like a mystery!
It was so mysterious that she found it hard to believe…
At the same time, she couldn't help but admire Cao Jun…
