"Cao Mengde, is this how your military counselor treats people?”
Chen Gong said angrily.
He was not a broad-minded person, and he had always disliked Cao Cao.
Seeing Tong Fei treat him like this, he naturally thought that Cao Cao was behind it.
"Sigh, Mister Gongtai has really wronged me.”
Cao Cao quickly waved his hand, but his expression suddenly changed.
"This is the personality of my military counselor. If Mister Gongtai feels that there is something wrong, you can digest it yourself.
"You!"
Chen Gong almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
What a good sentence,'why don't you digest it yourself?' It made him feel like killing someone.
F * ck! Boss, you're domineering. As expected of you. I love you!
Tong Fei was both emotional and happy.
He didn't expect Boss Cao to be so domineering and protective of his son.
Since that was the case, he had to help his boss trick Chen Gong today.
Hearing Tong Fei's thoughts, a smile appeared on Cao Cao's face.
Yes, he was such a domineering and protective person.
Moreover, Tong Fei was his own destined strategist. If he didn't protect him, who else would he protect?
"Alright, Cao Mengde. Don't forget that Meng Zhuo gave you East County!”(Zhang Miao, also known as Meng Zhuo)
Chen Gong was truly angered and was thrown into a panic. He had actually brought up the issue of East County.
Hearing this, not only Tong Fei and Cao Cao, even Xi Zhicai, who was hiding behind the curtain, had a drastic change in expression.
Cao Cao's expression darkened as he said,"
"Chen Gongtai, you have to understand the situation. It is true that Meng Zhuo recommended me to be the prefect of East County, but I, Cao Mengde, did it on my own.
I'll take responsibility!"
This was true.
Before Cao Cao recruited troops to attack Dong, there were even Yellow Turban remnants in East County who rebelled.
Zhang Miao had indeed recommended him, but taking down East County depended on Cao Cao's own abilities.
"If you came here today just to stir up trouble, then take care.”
Mud people still had a temper, let alone the mighty and domineering Boss Cao.
Seeing Cao Cao's unyielding attitude, Chen Gong felt regret.
To have a bad relationship with Cao Cao on the surface was not in line with Chen Gongtai's plan.
At the thought of this, Chen Gong's expression changed rapidly. The speed at which his expression changed was 30% faster than a professional's.
His face was filled with an ugly smile as he said,
"Meng De, you've misunderstood. I'm actually representing Meng Zhuo to give you a great opportunity.”
Eh…Chen Gong, stop pretending. It's a good thing that you didn't dig a hole for yourself. What luck? What luck?
Hearing Tong Fei's complaints about Chen Gong, Cao Cao's mood improved.
Just as he was about to reply to Chen Gong, Tong Fei waved his hand and smiled.
"Mr. Gongtai, if my guess is correct, there should be Yellow Turban bandits at the border between southern Yanzhou and northern Yuzhou. You want to recommend my lord to lead troops to crusade against them, right?”
"Ah, this!"
"How do you know?"
" What's wrong?" Chen Gong asked, his fingers trembling.
"Alas, to be honest with you, Mr. Gongtai, my lord has long known about the rebellion of the Yellow Turban Army.”
"Unfortunately, the soldiers of East County have been killed or injured in the battle against Dong Zhuo. We really don't have any manpower to send!”
Hearing this, Cao Cao's mouth twitched.
In fact, he didn't lose any soldiers to pursue Dong Zhuo.
Not only were they unharmed, they even gained Xu Rong and several thousand soldiers, as well as a lot of rations.
His strength was much stronger than before the Wild Date Meeting.
Of course, the tacit understanding between Cao Cao and Tong Fei had gradually taken shape after countless scammers.
Seeing that Tong Fei was crying to Chen Gong, Cao Cao immediately revealed a sorrowful expression.
He pulled his collar and said angrily,
"It's a pity that I, Cao Mengde, am incompetent and don't have the strength to save His Majesty. He even suffered a great defeat and had no face to face the elders of Yanzhou!”
After saying that, he pulled out the Heavenly Sword hanging on the table and aimed it at himself, looking as if he was about to commit suicide.
"Lord, don't!"
"Failure is the mother of success. If you fail this time, work hard next time and you will succeed. You must not give up!”
Tong Fei quickly went forward and hugged Cao Cao tightly.
Chen Gong was speechless.
Cao Cao was speechless.
The actor hiding behind the curtain was speechless.
What a good phrase. Failure is the mother of success.
The moment Chen Gong heard this, he felt his blood boil.
Although he was very unhappy with Tong Fei, what he said made sense.
Failure was the mother of success. As long as he persevered, he might succeed in the future!
Seeing Cao Cao and Tong Fei's expressions, Chen Gong let out a long sigh.
However, he still had doubts in his heart, so he asked,
"That's not right. I heard from the outside world that General Meng De won the battle in Xingyang. How did it become a huge defeat?"
Hearing this, Cao Cao's expression stiffened, appearing somewhat unnatural.
It was Tong Fei who reacted quickly. He knelt on one knee and said bitterly,
"I won't hide it from Mister Gongtai. That was because our army had lost a battle. In order to show off, we deliberately announced that we had won.”
"Uh…what is posturing?"
Chen Gong heard a term that he had never heard of before, so he quickly asked.
