Guo Tu shivered, and the arrogance on his face turned into shock.
Xun Yu and Guo Jia's expressions changed as well.
Cao Shuo actually ordered to cut off Guo Tu's ears and nose?
This was no longer a matter of offending Yuan Shao.
This was a direct declaration of war against Yuan Shao!
Although Cao Ren and the other generals were angry at Guo Tu, they never thought that they would start a war with Yuan Shao.
Guo Tu didn't believe that this Cao Family kid in front of him had the guts to do so.
The hall was deathly silent.
No one said a word. They looked at Cao Shuo in surprise, thinking that he had given the wrong order.
"Cao Chun, listen up!"
Cao Shuo's eyebrows furrowed as he slammed the table and shouted.
Cao Chun was shocked and hurried out of the office.”
Cao Shuo pointed at Guo Tu." I order you to do it yourself. Cut off the ears and nose of this disrespectful person!"”
The deathly silence exploded, and there was an uproar.
Everyone finally confirmed that they did not hear wrongly and Cao Shuo did not give the wrong order.
This young master of the Cao family really wanted to cut off Guo Tu's ears and nose.
Military orders were like mountains.
Although Cao Chun was shocked, he did not dare to disobey.
With his sword in hand, he took a few steps forward and pressed Guo Tu to the ground, ready to attack.
Guo Tu woke up and was instantly shocked and furious.
" Cao Ziyao, I'm Deacon Yuan's confidant. If you dare to hurt me, it's disrespectful to Deacon Yuan. Have you ever thought about what will happen next?"
Guo Tu struggled and questioned angrily.
Cao Chun's sword hung in mid-air and did not fall. He turned his head sideways to see if Cao Shuo would retract his order.
"Sikong, although Guo Tu was rude, his crime is not as severe as this.”
"Yuan Shaoshi, now is not the time to fall out with him. Please calm down and take back your orders.”
Sweat rolled down Xun Yu's forehead, and he hurriedly tried to persuade him in a low voice.
Guo Jia hurriedly advised," Yuan Qiang and Cao Ruo, now is not the time to fight Yuan Shao. Please bear with it for now."”
"Endure?"
"The one who should endure is that old thief Yuan Shao. I, Cao Shuo, don't know how to write the word endure!”
Cao Shuo glared at Cao Chunyi in disdain."
"Hurry up and do it. Who's the one in charge of the Cao family?”
Xun Yu and Guo Jia couldn't bear this thunderous rage. Their bodies trembled and they didn't dare to persuade him anymore.
Cao Chun couldn't take it and didn't dare to hesitate.
Gritting his teeth, he raised his hand and slashed down.
Kakaka!
His bloody ears and nose were cut off.
Guo Tu wailed and fell to the ground, clutching his face and rolling around.
"Guo Tu, bring your ears and nose back to Hebei!”
"Tell Yuan Shao that everyone in the world is afraid of him, but I, Cao Shuo, regard him as grass.”
"If he knows what's good for him, he will come to Xu City to apologize and bow to me.”
"Otherwise, sooner or later, I will personally lead the army north, flatten Ye City, and destroy the entire Yuan family!”
Ba Jue's contemptuous declaration of war echoed in the hall.
The generals were infected, and their blood boiled.
"Although this child is a little reckless, he has guts!”
"As expected of Meng De's son, as expected of the Cao Clan's disciple!”
Cao Ren, Xiahou Dun, and the other generals looked at Cao Shuo with admiration.
Xun Yu shook his head helplessly and sighed." After today, I've completely severed ties with Yuan Shao. There's no turning back…"
Guo Jia scratched his head, thinking about how to report to Cao Cao.
You said that your good son's method of dealing with Yuan Shao was simple and crude, directly declaring war?
"Cao Shuo, Cao Shuo-"
Guo Tu, who was lying on the ground, stared at Cao Shuo in shock.
His eyes were even filled with confusion.
He couldn't figure out where this young man got the confidence to dare to declare war on the world's strongest dukedom.
"Why aren't you getting lost? Beat him up!”
Cao Shuo didn't bother to waste his breath and waved his hand impatiently.
The White Robe Tiger Guards on his left and right beat Guo Tu with their cudgels.
Guo Tu was scared out of his wits. He didn't dare to stay any longer, nor did he dare to say any harsh words. He packed up his broken ears and nose and fled in a hurry.
"Sikong!"
"Now that we have fallen out with Yuan Shao, I'm afraid the army will arrive in an instant.”
"We should quickly go to Baima, Yanjin, and the other Yellow River crossing points to increase our defenses and be on guard.”
In the end, Xun Yu put the overall situation first and immediately came up with a plan to remedy the situation.
"Gongsun Zan is Yuan Shao's greatest enemy. If I don't destroy Gongsun Zan, he would never dare to come south to attack me!”
Cao Shuo's expression was firm as he pointed to the south."The one who needs to be dealt with now is Yuan Shu of Huainan.”
Yuan Shu?
Xun Yu and the other strategists looked at each other suspiciously.
It was not without reason that Yuan Shao was unable to withdraw and head south.
However, Yuan Shu had set up his own regime in Huainan and was bent on expanding his territory in Jiangdong. He had no intention of meddling in the Central Plains for the time being, so there was no need to rush to clean up.
"Sikong, Yuan Shu is fatuous and immoral. He doesn't pose a threat to us for the time being.”
"Yu believes that if Yuan Shao really has no time for the south, we might as well wipe out Lu Bu and Liu Bei and take Xuzhou first.”
Xun Yu said carefully.
Cao Shuo said coldly," I didn't plan to deal with Yuan Shu first. However, this thief is courting his own death. He dared to arrogate to himself the title of Emperor. How can I sit idly by?"”
Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor!
As soon as these words came out, all the advisors and generals were shocked.
So far, Xu Du had not received any information about Yuan Shu becoming the emperor.
How did Cao Shuo know?
Moreover, no matter how arrogant and conceited Yuan Shu was, he wouldn't be so arrogant that he dared to declare himself emperor.
Wouldn't that be equivalent to putting him in the public eye and becoming the public enemy of the world!
Was Yuan Shu that stupid?
Cao Ren, Xun Yu, Xiahou Dun, and Guo Jia were all skeptical.
At this moment.
The white-robed guard rushed in and half-knelt in front of the hall.
"Sikong, there is an urgent need for the 800 li of Huainan.”
"Three days ago, the traitor Yuan Shu paid his respects to heaven and earth in Shouchun and proclaimed himself emperor!”
Boom!
A bolt of lightning struck the hall.
Everyone was in an uproar.
Yuan Shu actually dared to defy the world and publicly ascend the throne!
Even someone as strong as Yuan Shao didn't have the guts to pay tribute to the Han Emperor in Xudu.
Where did his stupid brother get the confidence to be the public enemy of the world?
For a time, the hall was filled with shocked discussions.
"An urgent report from eight hundred miles away has just arrived!”
"How did Second Young Master know in advance that Yuan Shu had overstepped his authority and proclaimed himself emperor?”
Guo Jia trembled as he looked at Cao Shuo, his brows flickering with deep confusion.
