Xiahou Dun was resentful and did not dare to say anything.
At this moment, Mao Jie, who was in charge of military affairs, advised,""My lord! Yu Jin had always been steady. If it was just Liu Bei's plan to drive a wedge between them, it would have been a good thing! Thus, I suggest that we take advantage of Liu Bei's arrival to destroy Kong Rong and Tian Kai before we head to Yinping!”
"At that time, Liu Bei will not be able to hold on alone. Regardless of whether he occupies Yinping or not, he will be able to take it down in a single battle!”
Cao Cao thought about it and felt that what Mao Jie said made sense.
"Cao Hong, Le Jin, listen up!"
"I'm here!"
"The two of you will each lead five thousand soldiers to raid Kong Rong and Tian Kai's camp tonight. You must succeed, no failure is allowed!”
"Yes!"
"Li Dian!"
"I'm here!"
"I want to find out more about Yin Ping. I want to know exactly if Yin Ping was lost or not!”
"Xiahou Dun!"
"I'm here!"
Xiahou Dun carefully crawled on the ground, not daring to move.
After all, they had suffered heavy losses, and Xiahou Dun had no chance to push the blame to Yu Jin. He could only admit defeat at this moment.
Cao Cao looked at this clansman and sighed.
If it wasn't for the fact that he needed the generals to control the army, Cao Cao wouldn't have let Xiahou Dun be the general!
But Cao Cao knew.
Only the generals of the clan would not betray him!
The rest of the generals with foreign surnames would not be 100% loyal!
"Although victory and defeat are common in a military, you are a general of the Xiahou clan. If you lose, you will lose the face of the Xiahou clan.”
"Thank you, my lord!" Xiahou Dun was overjoyed.
Thirty strokes.
It was nothing to someone as thick-skinned as Xiahou Dun!
Everyone left the tent, leaving only Chancellor Guo Jia behind.
Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia with a burning gaze."Fengxiao, just now, I saw that you seemed to have something to say. Now that it's just you and me, you can be frank!”
Guo Jia's tone also became solemn,"My Lord! Manager Mao's suggestion was not bad! But I'm worried that Liu Bei's military advisor will definitely predict that we will attack Kong Rong and Tian Kai's main camp and will need to gather more troops to support us!”
Mao Jie's suggestion was generally not a problem.
Guo Jia didn't point out Mao Jie's plan's loophole, this was giving Mao Jie face.
But in private.
Guo Jia naturally had to remind Cao Cao.
Cao Cao pondered for a moment and nodded,""Feng Xiao is right! With his intelligence, it's not difficult for him to guess our marching plan. I'll let Cao Ren lead another 5,000 troops to support Cao Hong and Yue Jin!”
He paused.
"Fengxiao, if you plan, do you have a way to capture Liu Bei's military advisor?"”
Guo Jia took a sip of the wine and a sharp light flashed in his eyes."My lord! Forgive me for being blunt, but you should still think about how to kill Liu Bei, this military advisor!”
Cao Cao was shocked,"Fengxiao, why is this?"”
Cao Cao understood Guo Jia, so he naturally wouldn't think that Guo Jia was jealous.
"My lord!" Guo Jia said seriously. With such talent, as long as Liu Bei wasn't stupid, he would definitely treat him as a distinguished guest and listen to his words! However, if this military advisor of the Xun family were to serve under the lord, what position could the lord give him?”
Guo Jia was hinting at something.
Cao Cao immediately understood Guo Jia's meaning.
Besides Xun Mu, Liu Bei had no other strategists.
Everything had to rely on Xun Mu's strategy, and Xun Mu was Liu Bei's mastermind.
In addition, Liu Bei's own strategy was insufficient, so he could listen to Xun Mu's words!
But he, Cao Cao, could not!
Even if Xun Mu came.
Cao Cao would never place Xun Mu in the same position as Xun Yu and Guo Jia!
And Cao Cao's personality wouldn't listen to Xun Mu's words.
Then…
What benefits did Xun Mu get from joining Cao Cao?
Come over and be Xun Yu and Guo Jia's underling?
He would rather choose the unknown Liu Bei than Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, who had been the three dukes for four generations. He would not even choose Cao Cao.
Such a strategist.
They were definitely proud and unwilling to be inferior to others!
"This Liu Bei, what ability does he have to be able to obtain the services of such a strategist!”Cao Cao sighed and gave up on the idea of recruiting him.
In the blink of an eye.
Cao Cao's eyes were filled with killing intent.
If he couldn't use it, he had to kill it!
Liu Bei only had two generals who could fight against 10,000 men, and Cao Cao did not take them seriously.
But now.
With Xun Mu as his advisor, Cao Cao had no choice but to reevaluate Liu Bei!
"My Lord!" Guo Jia said again. That military advisor of the Xun family chose to assist Liu Bei at this time. If I'm not wrong, his goal is also Xuzhou!”
Xuzhou?
Cao Cao's anger was ignited!
"A child who weaves mats and sells shoes dares to covet Xuzhou?”
Xu Prefecture had long been treated by Cao Cao as his own.
He had suffered heavy casualties, and even his father and younger brother had died.
If Liu Bei were to take advantage of him in the end, how could he tolerate this?
"Feng Xiao! Xu Prefecture must not fall into Liu Bei's hands!”
"Otherwise, with Liu Bei's current strength, he has Zhang Fei and Guan Yu in the military, and this Military Advisor Xun in the civil. If he takes control of Xu Prefecture, he will definitely become a huge threat to Yanzhou!”
Cao Cao's tone was filled with killing intent!
