"Fengxiao, what's going on?"
Cao Cao asked as he pointed at the flag on the city wall.
"This should be the defeat of the Western Liang army. Our army has…invaded Wan City.”
Guo Jia's voice was slightly hoarse.
"You said that Shuo 'er was going to fight Zhang Xiu alone. Why would our army attack Wan City?" Cao Cao asked.”
"This…"
Guo Jia was at a loss for words, unable to explain.
Everything that was happening in front of him was beyond his comprehension.
Guo Jia could only immediately arrange for a military division to investigate the situation.
After a while.
Suddenly, the eyes and ears of the military officer rushed over and dismounted.
"Reporting to Chancellor Guo, Second Young Master fought with Zhang Xiu and killed Zhang Xiu in one move.”
"The Xi Liang army is in chaos. Second Young Master has taken advantage of the situation and has taken Wan City!”
The truth was revealed.
Guo Jia's hand trembled slightly, and the horsewhip fell from his hand.
Inside the carriage, Cao Cao's body suddenly shook and he hurriedly held onto the carriage's railing to barely sit still.
The two of them looked at each other again. Other than surprise, their eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Zhang Xiu is known as the Spear King of the Northern Lands. Among our generals, only Dian Wei can fight him!”
"Shuo 'Er can actually kill him in one move?"
Cao Cao gasped, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"No wonder Second Young Master insisted on fighting Zhang Xiu alone.”
"It turns out that he hid such a peerless martial art and was determined to get it from the beginning. We were worried too much!”
At this moment, Guo Jia finally understood.
"But this child, how did he manage to master such peerless martial arts right under my nose?" Cao Cao asked with a puzzled expression.”
Guo Jia did not know how to explain and could only say,
"No matter what, this is enough to prove that Second Young Master is not an arrogant person.”
"Now that Zhang Xiu has been killed and Wan City has fallen, the threat to the south of Xudu has been removed.”
"After this battle, Second Young Master will definitely be famous throughout the world!”
Cao Cao's spirit was lifted, the shock and confusion on his face was replaced by relief.
"Shuo 'Er is indeed extraordinary. I should trust him more..."
Cao Cao's tone was slightly ashamed.
"Sikong's plan to take power, should we delay it for the time being?" Guo Jia asked.”
"There's no hurry."
Cao Cao nodded slightly." I'll give Shuo 'er more opportunities to train and earn more prestige. When the time is ripe, he can really take charge of the situation."”
Guo Jia naturally understood the meaning behind Cao Cao's words. He had tacitly agreed to pass the throne to Cao Shuo.
"Then Jia will send Sikong to Wan City to settle down.”
"Jia will return to Second Young Master's side and report to Si Kong about Second Young Master's movements.”
Guo Jia cupped his hands and asked.
Cao Cao nodded.
The carriage continued to move toward Wan City.
"I boast that I have the ability to recognize people. Could it be that I have eyes but failed to see that my own son is a hidden dragon in the abyss…"
Cao Cao muttered to himself in the carriage.
The setting sun was like blood.
Wan City, the administrative area of Nanyang County, was covered in blood mist.
In order to take revenge for their previous defeat, the Cao army's eyes were bloodshot from killing, and they slaughtered nearly ten thousand Xi Liang soldiers in the city.
Above the four gates, the Cao flag was raised one after another, announcing that Wan City had changed hands.
At night, in the main hall of the military headquarters.
Cao Shuo sat on the throne, exuding a murderous and domineering aura.
The generals did not dare to look up, and their eyes were filled with respect.
In today's battle, he would kill Zhang Xiu!
Cao Shuo had used his strength to convince the generals.
Crying and wailing could be heard as Zhang Xiu's family of more than fifty people were escorted into the hall and knelt at Cao Shuo's feet.
"Sikong, including Zhang Xiu's son, Zhang Quan, and his aunt, Madam Zou, all fifty of us are here.”
"Sikong, please punish me."
Cao Ren went forward to ask for orders.
"As the lord, you have to keep your word!"
"If I say I want to kill Zhang Xiu's entire family, then I will kill his entire family.”
"Behead them all, leave no one alive!"
Cao Shuo waved his hand coldly.
"Decisive and merciless. This nephew of mine really has the bearing of an ambitious man!”
Cao Ren praised in his heart and gladly accepted the order.
The White Robe Tiger Guards chased the Zhang Clan out.
Cries and cries for mercy rose and fell.
"Sikong Cao, please spare my life. I am innocent. Please have mercy on me, Sikong Cao ~~"
A young and beautiful woman was crying and begging for mercy on the ground, attracting Cao Shuo's attention.
Cao Shuo signaled with his eyes, and the Yan Cloud Guards brought the woman to him.
"Who are you? How dare you say that you are innocent?”
Cao Shuo shouted.
"I am Zou Yu 'er, the daughter of the Zou family in Wan City.”
"Back then, when Zhang Ji was critically ill, Zhang Xiu forced me to marry into the Zhang family and become his aunt in order to celebrate his death.”
"I was forced by Zhang Xiu. I'm innocent. Sikong, please show mercy and let me live ~~"
Zou Yuer cried bitterly and told him the whole story.
Cao Shuo's eyes lit up.
Zou Yuer, Zhang Xiu's aunt!
Wasn't this the Lady Zou that her dead father, Cao Cao, had wanted to take as his concubine during the Battle of Wan City?
"Ding! Host, please take Zou Yuer as your concubine and activate the ability to take in beauties. You will receive Tyrant points!”
The system notification sounded in his ear.
