Cao Cao was silent.
He waved his hand and dismissed the civil and military officials.
Chen Mu was the only one left.
"Jing Lue, I have carefully assessed the training method that you asked Zilian to send over. It is indeed a rare elite training method.”
"They are comparable to the elites of Qin and the soldiers of Wei.”
"Although he was born in a humble family, Jing Lue's literary and martial arts skills are not inferior to those of the wealthy families.”
"But because of this, I don't want you to take the risk yourself!”
"Lu Bu is just a small problem, I don't have to use a chain of attacks! I have Juancheng, Fan County, and Dong 'e. I can expel them sooner or later.”
"But if Jing Lue dies, that would be my real loss!”
Cao Cao was sincere.
Right now, Cao Cao's subordinates were all from the aristocratic families.
Even Guo Jia was a Humble Class Scholar!
The rebellion of Zhang Miao and Chen Gong made Cao Cao realize the hidden dangers of the aristocrats, especially the famous officials and aristocratic families!
No matter how strong your military might was.
He raised his arm and shouted, and all the counties rebelled!
However, Cao Cao could not ignore the people of the aristocratic families.
In war, they could recruit illiterate young men.
For example, the soldiers of Qingzhou were made up of the young and strong Yellow Turbans of Qingzhou.
Cao Cao didn't expect the soldiers of Qingzhou to be able to read and write. He only wanted them to be able to fight!
Just govern the county.
Cao Cao could only rely on the literati.
However…
Most of the gentry clans were related to each other.
For example, the aristocratic families of Yingchuan, Guo, Xun, Zhong and Chen, were of the same breath and branch.
The same was true of the Yanzhou gentry.
Cao Cao used the gentry, but was also restrained by the gentry.
However…
In this era, all the talents in the world came from the aristocratic families.
Suddenly, a commoner, Chen Mu, appeared!
His literary talent and martial strategy were all first-class in the world.
How could Cao Cao not be happy?
Chen Mu was the core figure Cao Cao used to restrict the aristocrats!
In order to prevent Chen Mu from being pressured by Liu Bei, Cao Cao had even adopted Cao Song's idea and gifted Cai Yan to Chen Mu.
All of the armor that they had seized from the Breaking Ranks Battalion was given to Chen Mu.
All of this.
It was all Cao Cao's doing to boost Chen Mu's popularity!
It would allow Chen Mu to have enough power to keep the aristocrats in check.
To Cao Cao.
Lu Bu from Puyang had failed in his first plan, but he could still use another one. There was no need to put Chen Mu in danger again!
Chen Mu understood Cao Cao's sincerity.?
"I'll remember your kindness, Duke Ming," Chen Mu said with a solemn expression. But you don't have to worry, I won't put myself in a dangerous situation of absolute death.”
"Back then, I was able to escape from the death prison in Pingyuan County, and similarly, I was able to remain safe and sound in Puyang City!”
"Although Lu Bu is a small problem, as long as he doesn't come out, Yanzhou won't be peaceful!”
"Ming Gong must know that I had asked Zi Xiu to send a message to all the counties to be on guard against the locust plague!”
"I'm not exaggerating the locust plague!”
"If we can't defeat Lu Bu quickly, Duke Ming won't be able to mobilize the entire Yanzhou to fight against the locust plague!”
"Now that Lu Bu has sent people to feign surrender, this is a heaven-sent opportunity to seize Puyang!”
"If you were only worried about my safety and missed the opportunity, wouldn't you be like that indecisive Yuan Benchu?”
"Lord Ming, please make your decision!"
Chen Mu's words were equally sincere.
Cao Cao was touched.
A moment later.
Cao Cao's eyes became fierce." Jing Lue is so fearless. If I am indecisive, how can I achieve my ambition of sweeping the world clean?"”
"If Jing Lue fails, I will definitely slaughter Lu Bu and Chen Gong to vent my hatred!”
Immediately.
Cao Cao no longer hesitated and once again gave the order to attack Puyang City at night!
....
Within Puyang City.
Lu Bu was overjoyed when he heard the news.
"Cao Cao has fallen into a trap.”
"Tonight, we must capture that Cao thief alive. From now on, Yanzhou will belong to me, Lu Bu!”
"Hahaha!"
....
Chen Mu's military camp.
Four hundred soldiers lined up.
Although the mission this time was very dangerous, these 400 athletes did not show any fear. Instead, they were all eager to give it a try!
"Chief is going to personally go out. It's really exciting!”
"I remember that the last time Chief went out was when Cao Yanzhou attacked the Yellow Turbans of Qingzhou, right?”
"Have you forgotten how to go to the battlefield?”
"Oh! That's right! Chief must have forgotten, so don't go this time!”
"How is that possible? I still have to protect Chief!"
"Why are you calling him Chief? You have to call him Lieutenant. Chief has already been promoted.”
"Second Leader, there's something wrong with you. You can shout, but we can't?”
The 400 athletes were full of arrogance and didn't listen to Guan Hai's orders.
Chen Mu stood on the marshal's platform with his sword in his hand. A gentle breeze blew his hair, and Chen Mu's imposing aura that resembled an immortal was about to burst out.
"After this battle, I will allow you to call yourselves the Wei Army!”
In an instant.
Everyone present.
What followed was an aura like that of a tiger or a leopard!
