Sima Yi quickly cupped his hands and bowed.
"My lord, the state preceptor is resting in his room. We have been waiting here for a long time.”
Cao Cao quickly nodded.
"In that case, I will wait with you.”
After saying that, Cao Cao walked forward.
The others all stood up and gave up their seats to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao waved his hand." Counselors, there's no need to be so polite. Continue, continue!"”
After saying that, Cao Cao took two steps back and let Sima Yi, Guo Jia, and the others continue to deduce the array formation.
He watched from the side.
Occasionally, Cao Cao would clap his hands and cheer when he saw something unusual.
"Guo Jia's formation is truly exquisite. It can actually defeat many with fewer people and turn defeat into victory.”
Guo Jia scratched his head in embarrassment.
"My lord, I actually learned this formation from the Imperial Preceptor.”
"Although it seems strange, in fact, I have only learned the surface.”
"Imperial Preceptor's formation is truly unparalleled!”
Cao Cao's eyes lit up.
"Oh? What do you mean?"
Guo Jia glanced at Sima Yi and Jia Xu and shook his head.
"My lord, you might not know this, but a few days ago, we had a battle of formations with the military counselor in the martial arts field.”
"A total of four people, each with three thousand soldiers, will conduct a battle drill.”
"Imperial Preceptor defeated the three of us all by himself.”
"The formations and schemes at that time were truly unprecedented and amazing!”
"These days, the two strategists and I have practiced countless times, but we still couldn't get the essence. That's why we came to consult the Imperial Preceptor!”
When Guo Jia spoke, his eyes were filled with anticipation and admiration.
In his heart, he had long regarded her as a god.
Cao Cao praised him even more.
He admitted that Ye Bei was indeed stronger than Guo Jia, Sima Yi, and Jia Xu.
However, there was strength in numbers. The top three military strategists of the Wei Kingdom combined had still lost to Ye Bei.
This was something that Cao Cao had not expected, so he admired Ye Bei even more.
Everyone praised him for a moment.
Guo Jia suddenly remembered something.
"My lord, you just attacked Wan City and returned victorious. Why didn't you go and rest? Instead, you came to the Imperial Advisor's residence first?”
When Cao Cao heard this, he covered his face with his sleeves.
"Sigh, I'm ashamed to say this, but I've specially come to ask for forgiveness from the Imperial Preceptor!”
"Apologize? What crime has my lord committed?"
Guo Jia and Sima Yi asked.
"Military advisors, you may not know this, but because I did not listen to the Imperial Preceptor, this attack on Wan City almost caused a disaster!”
Cao Cao said emotionally.
"We are stupid and do not know what Lord means!”
Guo Jia, Sima Yi, and Jia Xu cupped their fists at the same time.
"Sigh! Do you still remember that before the expedition, the Imperial Advisor wrote down three brocade pouches? One was left for me, and the other two were given to Cao Ang and Dian Wei?”
Cao Cao asked.
"We remember."
"Sigh! The Imperial Advisor once said that if I can welcome Zhang Xiu's surrender and enter Wan City, I can open the brocade pouch.”
"In the end, Zhang Xiu really surrendered."
"After I opened the brocade pouch, I found four words on it: 'Do not provoke other people's wife'. Unfortunately, lust is a hero's courage.”
"After I entered Wan City, I really met a woman. She was extraordinarily beautiful and sleepy. She was Zhang Xiu's aunt.”
"That's exactly what caused Zhang Xiu, who had already surrendered, to defect!”
"I almost made a big mistake!"
Cao Cao still felt some lingering fear when he spoke of this matter.
Guo Jia and the others broke out in cold sweat.
They knew how brave Zhang Xiu was. Furthermore, Zhang Xiu had many elite soldiers under him. Once he launched a surprise attack, very few people would be able to survive.
"Then how did the lord escape from danger?" Guo Jia asked curiously.
"This is all thanks to the state preceptor."
"If Imperial Preceptor hadn't predicted this beforehand, I would have forgotten the instructions on the brocade pouch and given my son Cao Ang and Dian Wei two brocade pouches in advance.”
"Let them open it after I provoke another's wife. If they know that Zhang Xiu will betray me, I will be in trouble. From there, we can make preparations in advance."
"If it wasn't for the military, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to return from this trip!”
Cao Cao said excitedly.
Cao Ang and Dian Wei nodded.
When everyone heard this, they all gave him a thumbs up.
"Imperial Preceptor is really a god!"
Guo Jia praised.
"Divine foresight, no one but the state preceptor can do it!”
Sima Yi praised him continuously.
"My lord can obtain the state preceptor alone, which is better than thousands of troops!”
Jia Xu was even more impressed.
"Imperial Preceptor, you truly are a sage, you live up to your reputation!”
All the civil officials and generals were full of praise.
Just as everyone was praising Ye Bei, he walked out of his room while stretching.
When everyone saw Ye Bei, they hurriedly bowed.
"King of Wei, military advisors, generals, why are you here?”
Cao Cao stepped forward.
"State Preceptor! I've specially come to apologize!"
"If it wasn't for the aid of the Imperial Preceptor's brocade bag, I'm afraid I would have died in Wan City!”
When Ye Bei heard this, he immediately understood.
Hence, he quickly waved his hand.
"There's no need for the King of Wei to do this. This matter is within expectations!”
"Hey!" Cao Cao sighed and stepped forward to hold Ye Bei's hand.
"Imperial Preceptor, I can't thank you enough!"
"This time, I'm truly convinced!”
"In the palace, I have already prepared a celebratory feast to thank the Imperial Preceptor!”
Then, a group of civil and military officials escorted Ye Bei and Cao Cao toward the Wei Kingdom's palace.
While Ye Bei and Cao Cao were celebrating their victory at Wan City in the Wei Kingdom's palace…
Other countries were also observing the Wancheng incident.
Especially Liu Bei of Shu and Sun Quan of Wei.
The two of them were gathering their strategists to think of a countermeasure.
Shu Country, in the palace.
Liu Bei invited Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, and the others over.
"Advisor Jun, I heard that the attack on Wan City was the idea of the Sage of Scheming. Is this true?”
Zhuge Liang waved the goose feather fan in his hand and nodded slightly.
"It should be true."
"Cao Cao has been paying attention to Wan City for a long time. However, he is suspicious and has been worried about Liu Biao, Lu Bu, and Yuan Shao, so he has been reluctant to make a move.”
"Now that Ye Bei has just left the mountain, Cao Cao has decided to attack Wan City. It seems like it was his idea!”
Zhuge Liang explained.
Liu Bei nodded.
"As soon as Ye Bei left the mountain, he helped Cao Cao take down Wan City. He can't be underestimated!”
"It's a pity that we were a step too late when Ye Bei lived in seclusion on Mount Tai. Otherwise, Ye Bei would have been captured by our Shu Kingdom.”
Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong nodded.
Indeed, Liu Bei loved talent as much as his life.
If Ye Bei had lived in seclusion on Mount Shu, Liu Bei would have asked him to leave the mountain long ago.
Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong also admired Ye Bei's talent.
It was not because of anything else, but to be able to take down Wan City so quickly, even a god like Zhuge Liang would not be able to do it!
Seeing that Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were silent, Liu Bei hurriedly toasted them.
"Hahaha, you two military strategists don't have to worry too much. I'm just complaining!”
"Didn't the Heavenly Dao say that if the Crouching Dragon Phoenix Chicks get one person, they can get the world?”
"It's enough for me to get both of you at the same time!”
"Come! Gentlemen, let's drink!"
Although he said that, Liu Bei was still jealous in his heart.
The great Sage of Scheming had actually fallen into Cao Cao's hands!
How unlucky!
