Yes. Cao Cao exclaimed, his face was ugly, and his voice trembled slightly: "Say, what the hell is going on, how can the 30,000 army say no." ”

Xu Huang didn't dare to hide it, and hurriedly explained the ins and outs of the whole thing clearly, and attached a sentence at the end to ask for punishment.

After Cao Cao heard this, he only felt that the world was spinning in front of him, and he already had a headache, and at this time he heard such bad news, and under the double blow, he couldn't help it anymore, and slowly fell backwards.

Seeing this, Xu Chu, who was guarding Cao Cao's side, quickly stepped forward to support him, and shouted anxiously: "Prime Minister, Prime Minister, come quickly, Prime Minister fainted......"

Under Xu Chu's call, the people in the tent hurriedly stepped forward to investigate Cao Cao's situation, and some people asked the soldiers who rushed into the tent to ask for a military doctor.

After about a cup of tea, the military doctor hurriedly walked over, immediately evacuated the surrounding people, and quickly took Cao Cao's pulse to observe.

After a while, the military doctor got up and said: "The prime minister has been working hard day and night, and he has an attack of headache, and his condition is aggravated at this time, so I am afraid that he must rest more, otherwise it will be difficult to recover for a while." ”

Xun You frowned and asked, "Is there a way to wake up the prime minister first?" ”

The military doctor replied: "This is not difficult, in the inferior will be decocted with a prescription, and after the prime minister drinks it, he will wake up in less than half an hour." ”

Hearing that Cao Cao would wake up soon, Xun You and the others felt a little relieved, and they had to ask the military doctor to leave to prepare medicine.

But the military doctor said at this time: "Lord Xun, there is something in the next place, which has been troubled in my heart for a long time, not to mention that I am afraid of causing a big disaster, if not, I am afraid that the prime minister will blame." ”

"Huh?" Xun You looked at the military doctor suspiciously, not knowing what he wanted to say, thinking for a while, and decided to listen, anyway, there was no big problem. "Say, I promise no one will blame."

The military doctor was reassured and hurriedly said what had been suppressed in his heart for a long time. "Lord Xun, the prevailing wind chill in our army this time is probably not an ordinary thing."

"Many people have been treated under the treatment, and it can be seen that there are very few improvements, most of them can only be stifled, not eradicated, and once the drug is stopped, it will be more serious, and more and more people have been infected in recent days."

"Although there are very few people who die of illness at present, if it goes on for a long time, the poisonous evil hides and merges, and I am afraid that once it breaks out, a large number of people will die."

"Huh?" Xun You was shocked, if this is true, I am afraid it will cause an irreparable situation, but the previous words of the military doctor also prove that he can't confirm it at present, it is just a guess.

This matter is too important, and Xun You can't make the decision, so he can only wait for Cao Cao to wake up.

Xun You's face deliberately showed relaxation, and he said: "This is caused by the cold weather, don't think about it, today's words, don't go around publicizing, otherwise you won't be able to save your life." ”

The military doctor arched his hand and said: "Yes, Lord Xun can rest assured, I have never talked about it with anyone, and I will never mention this matter again, I just hope that someone can pay more attention to this matter." ”

Xun You nodded and said, "I know, go down, and I will report to the prime minister at that time." ”

The military doctor retreated and left, Xun You looked at the people in the tent, and saw that they all had solemn faces, and knew in his heart that no one believed what he said just now.

Xun You shook his head helplessly, sat back in his position and said nothing, it was really unsettled, there was a matter, it seemed that the battle of Guandu was even more difficult than expected.

The atmosphere in the tent was slightly awkward, and it was not until the military doctor sent the medicinal soup and Xu Chu clumsily fed Cao Cao that it got a little better.

After a while, Cao Cao woke up slowly, glanced at everyone, and said slowly: "It's okay, don't worry, let's talk about it, what should I do next?" ”

Xun You stood up and arched his hand and said: "Prime Minister, when you were unconscious, something happened, if it is true, I am afraid that a catastrophe will come." ”

Cao Cao raised his hand on his head, and said with an ugly face: "What happened again, is it worse than being wiped out tens of thousands of troops." ”

Xun You said: "The military doctor just reported a piece of news, saying that the wind and cold are circulating in our army, and it is an epidemic that will be contagious. ”

"Well, the plague?" Cao Cao's weak eyes widened slightly, looked at Xun You and asked, "Can it be confirmed that it is true or false, this matter is not trivial, it must be confirmed that it is correct. ”

Xun You replied: "The military doctor doesn't dare to confirm it yet, it's just a guess, but there are more and more infected people in the army, and I'm afraid that when it reaches a certain number, it will break out." ”

"Tsk." Cao Cao gasped and said with a little embarrassment: "In this case, for the time being, let the military doctors separate the infected soldiers from each other, so as not to increase the number of infected people, and say to the outside world that centralized treatment will reduce the burden on military doctors, and the army must not panic." ”

"In addition, let the military doctor come up with a way to control the condition as soon as possible, but all this must be done in secret, and if there is a leak, all insiders will be severely punished."

The plague cannot be sloppy, Cao Cao would rather believe it, in case he is negligent and causes all the army to be infected.

Then no matter what the result of the battle of Guandu is, Cao Cao will greatly reduce his strength, because Guandu's soldiers and horses are all Cao Cao's current army.

Cao Cao's arrangement, not only will it not affect the morale of the army, but it can also be prevented early, which is the best way at the moment, and everyone will naturally not object.

Twists and turns, bad news came one after another, Cao Cao obviously felt unbearable, and at this time closed his eyes and said: "He won't talk about it for the time being, it's still the same problem as before." ”

Hearing this, Li Ru on the side arched his hand and said: "Prime Minister, since General Xu's defeat has become a fact, then our army must set off early and rush to Yuanwu, so as not to suffer another defeat for Ma Chao's department." ”

"Well, that's right." Cao Cao nodded and said, "Yu Ban, order your department to immediately set out from the camp and explore the way ahead." ”

"Yes." Yu Ban, who was named, clenched his fists and turned to leave the tent.

Cao Cao, who closed his eyes, heard the footsteps going away, and said, "Others, let's set off according to the previous arrangement, no mistakes, go and prepare." ”

A group of warriors stood up, clasped their fists in a neat salute, and exited the big tent in an orderly manner.

The generals left, and the tent was much empty, Cao Cao glanced at it slightly, and continued to close his eyes and said: "Guo Jia and Chen Gong are resourceful, and now that the spirit of the army has been damaged, I am afraid it will be difficult to break it, can you plan in seconds?" ”

Cheng Yu opened his mouth and said: "Prime Minister, Yu has a way, I don't know if it's feasible?" ”

Cao Cao said: "But it doesn't hurt to say it, whether it's useful or not, it's not bad to refer to it." ”

Cheng Yu said: "Yu thinks that since Yangwu's defense is difficult to break, then Guo Jia must think that our army will not attack again, so why not take advantage of the arrival of the army to attack Yangwu in one go, presumably it can achieve a surprise effect." ”

Knowing that he can't do it, it is indeed a bit of a reverse way of thinking, Yangwu and Yuanwu only need to win one place, they can break the momentum of Li Jun's corners, and Cao Cao can also bring back most of the situation and enter Yizhou, the question is whether it can be broken.
