Yes, if I didn't have anything to do, wouldn't I have let them go back by themselves a long time ago, and there would be no need to be silent.

Cao Cao looked at his subordinates at this time, except for Cheng Yu, who stayed in the camp outside the city, everyone else was in the house, and after a while, Cao Cao said to everyone: "You should know, what is my intention in taking you back to the Taishou Mansion?" ”

Yu Ban was the first to speak out and said: "The lord has something to tell his subordinates, so that's it!" ”

Cao Cao nodded when he heard this, and then said to everyone with a straight face: "Everyone, before this, although our army was able to get some bargains in front of Sun Bofu and Liu Xuande, and Sun Bofu even let our army occupy Xiling, and his people said that they were willing to gamble and lose, but have you ever thought about it, today our army is considered to have offended him Jiangdong Xiaoba, so in the future, you should be careful, but don't let it catch any tricks!" ”

Cao Cao's meaning is very simple, that is, to sue everyone, we have offended Sun Ce just now, so you must not do anything, otherwise Sun Ce and Liu Bei will catch some tricks, then we will all be passive-

What's more, now that we have offended Sun Ce, he may still let us go. What to repay grievances with virtue, don't even think about it, so you all pay attention.

When everyone heard the words of their lord, they knew it in their hearts. To be honest, even if Cao Cao doesn't say this. Many people are guilty of a total in their hearts. After all, Sun Ce said it well, and it was true that he couldn't see anything about him, but in fact. There are really few people who think that Sun Ce can be counted like this.

Even if his Sun Bofu is a character, even if his Sun Bofu is one of the powerful princes in the world, even if his Sun Bofu symbolizes Sun Ce and Sun Bofu, the "Little Overlord of Jiangdong". But in any case, tonight he has offended him, and from the current point of view, there is basically no possibility of reconciliation, so he will not come to retaliate against him. That can't be said.

Indeed, let alone him Sun Ce, even if he is an ordinary person. It is estimated that he will have to find a chance to retaliate, and he Sun Ce has a lot of things. Although he is the lord of Jiangdong, it does not mean that he does not have seven emotions and six desires, and it does not mean that he will not retaliate against anything. Isn't it—

After listening to the words of his lord. Xun You said at this time: "The lord's words are very true, and his subordinates think that although he Sun Bofu cannot indeed be said to be narrow-minded, he is not an easy person to deal with. So now that our army has offended him, he must be looking for an opportunity to take revenge on our army, so he really has to guard against it! ”

After listening to the words of his lord and Mr. Gongda, it can be said that the generals of the Yanzhou Army present here really attach great importance to it. Even if I didn't pay that much attention to it before. After listening to Xun You's words, he also paid attention to it. Let's be honest. What kind of person Xun You is, what level of strategist is he, and the soldiers of the Yanzhou Army, he really knows very well.

Who doesn't know that Yingchuan Xun is a son of Xun Gongda, who was born in Yingchuan Xun, a child of a big family, or a descendant. And his uncle is Xun Yu Xun Wenruo, who is deeply valued by his own lord. Indeed, to say that among the advisors under his lord's account, the most important one is Xun Yu Xun Wenruo, and there is no one else-

Xun's uncle and nephew, Xun Yu is a few years older than Xun Yu, but Xun Yu's generation is there, so of course Xun Yu wants to call him uncle.

However, what the two are good at is different, Xun Yu is good at internal affairs, and Xun Yu is naturally good at military strategy, using troops to deploy formations. Of course, this is definitely not to say that Xun Yu doesn't understand military strategy or anything, on the contrary, Xun Yu is just as powerful, but Cao Cao basically didn't take him with him and left him in the rear, so Xun Yu didn't have much use, only when Xu Du was really a big deal, could Xun Yu's power be reflected.

As for what Xun Yu is so powerful, there is a word called Jianbi Qingye, yes, this word has something to do with Xun Yu, so there is no need to say more.

And his nephew Xun You, it is true, he also has Cao Cao's weight, or when he leads the troops, he will take him with him, so it also explains the problem-

At this time, everyone hurriedly expressed their position, and many people assured their lords, saying that they would pay attention in the future, and they would definitely not let Sun Ce and Liu Bei catch any tricks.

To be honest, Cao Cao heard this. Of course, he didn't think that his generals would deliberately make any mistakes, but if Sun Ce and Liu Bei really found fault, then they could really hide from it. However, Cao Cao knew in his heart that he was definitely not what he Sun Ce and Liu Bei kneaded as much as they wanted, even if it was his subordinates, if they really wanted to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys or something, then he would not give them any face, but would make them lose face, if they don't believe it, just wait and see.

In Cao Cao's thoughts, Sun Ce and Liu Bei would definitely not do anything unwise, so if they really want to make a move, it is estimated that the general situation is that they are sure enough, even if they can't say anything. But when this is the case, there shouldn't be, at least now that they have already instructed their subordinates like this, they don't understand, so can they still let Sun Ce and Liu Bei catch any tricks-

After this incident passed, Cao Cao said to everyone again: "I have told Sun Bofu and Liu Bei before that our army will rest in Xiling for two days, and then we will send troops again to take Di County!" ”

As soon as he heard that his side was going to continue to march. went to attack Yi County with the Sun and Liu coalition forces, Xun You frowned, and it happened to be discovered by Cao Cao. Although Cao Cao said that it was not "seeing the six roads." Listen to all directions", but to be honest, he paid special attention to several people under him, including Xun You. And Cheng Yu wasn't here, so he didn't have to pay attention to him, but he also paid attention to Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Le Jin.

So when Xun Yu frowned, Cao Cao hurriedly asked, "I don't know what Gongda thinks." But it doesn't hurt to say it! ”

When Xun You heard it, he also saw it just now, when he frowned. It was noticed by his own lord. There's no need to hide anymore, now that the lord has found out, what's the use of hiding it, it's useless.

So he said again at this time: "My lord." I don't know if the lord has thought about it. Now Jiangxia has lost three counties, Yundu, Anlu and now Xiling, but Qichun's Liangzhou army still seems to have no movement! ”——

After listening to Xun You's words, not only Cao Cao alone, but also many of the generals also made a mistake in their hearts, yes, this Jiangxia has already lost three counties. But Qichun's Liangzhou army, why hasn't there been any action. This, this doesn't make sense, right?

At this time, Cao Cao, of course, and everyone else were all looking at Xun You, wanting to hear what he could say.

And Cao Cao, who is the lord, said directly to Xun You: "I don't know what Gongda thinks about this?" The Liangzhou Army can't be hidden, right? ”

As soon as Xun You heard his lord's words, he also knew that his lord was rarely teasing, he smiled, and then said: "Lord, everyone, now that the Liangzhou army has not shown up, so could it be that his army has been waiting for what time before making a move?" ”

After all, Ma Chao what they think, no one dares to say that they must know, but it can be guessed-

For example, now, it can be said that at this time, what Xun You said to Cao Cao to everyone is what he said to conjecture. He believes that since Ma Chao's Liangzhou army has not moved, does it mean that they are waiting for the opportunity to find an opportunity, and then seize the opportunity to fight with their own army and Sun Liu.

Xun You continued: "My lord, please think about it, now that Jiangxia has lost three counties, according to the current advance speed of our army and the Sun Liu coalition army, Ma Mengqi of Qichun will definitely not know that Yundu and Anlu have been lost. And judging from the current time, Gao Pei, Deng Xian and Mi Fang, it is estimated that they have already returned to Qichun, but why the Liangzhou army still has not moved, isn't this suspicious? ”

Cao Cao's expression was solemn at this time, and then he said to Xun You: "So according to Gongda's meaning, that is, at this time, Ma Mengqi is still waiting, or looking for an opportunity, and then fight with our army and Sun Liu's coalition army?" ”

Xun You nodded when he heard this, "Yes, lord, this is exactly what my subordinates mean!" Just imagine, if the lord is Ma Mengqi, he lost three counties, but now he still hasn't sent reinforcements, then it is likely to be the case! After all, although a part of the Liangzhou army had gone to Changsha before, there were still more than 100,000 people left behind in Jiangxia, so why didn't Ma Mengqi send reinforcements? Could it be that Yundu, Anlu and Xiling really can't be rescued by his Liangzhou army? ”——

Cao Cao shook his head, that's not the case. Even in Ma Chao's eyes, he doesn't value the three counties anymore, but there are some things, it doesn't mean that if you don't send reinforcements, you will be fine, it will be easy, this is obviously impossible. But the Liangzhou army has not moved for a long time, but this has to make people suspicious, Cao Cao didn't think much about this problem before, but now that Xun You has brought it up, of course it is impossible for him not to think about it carefully.

After a while, Cao Cao asked Xun You and said, "I don't know what Gongda thinks, when will the Liangzhou army send troops?" ”

Xun You first shook his head, and then said to Cao Cao and the others: "Lord, my subordinates think that the Liangzhou army may be sending troops in these days!" ”

When Cao Cao heard Xun You's words, his eyebrows were raised, but before he could speak, one of them asked first, "I don't know what Mr. Gongda thinks." How is this so? ”——

Cao Cao looked at the person who spoke, and said in his heart, sure enough, it's you. Others will never ask Xun Yu at this time, yes, he hasn't said anything yet, and his subordinates obviously won't overstep their responsibilities.

The person who spoke was none other than Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang. Cao Cao's idea is indeed right, the people under Cao Cao's account. But no one dared to rob Cao Cao's words, to be honest, they all knew their lord, and they knew that their lordship was more taboo about this. Oh, yes. My lord didn't ask anything, but you asked first, you really don't want to live a good life. Even if your lord doesn't say anything. But this thing. It must be remembered for you, and then when you find an opportunity later, you will ......

Therefore, Cao Cao's subordinates didn't dare to talk, but it didn't mean that Guan Yu didn't dare to say it, so Guan Yu couldn't help but ask directly. As for Cao Cao's thoughts, this is not what Guan Yu wants to consider. After all, he also knew that he Cao Mengde was not his lord, and he was working for the Han Dynasty. It's not for him to play for Cao Mengde. At best, it can be said that he is serving under the Yanzhou military tent, that's what it is-

Even if the Yanzhou Army is actually his Cao Mengde's. But I still think that I am working for the Han Dynasty, how can I say that the banner played by Cao Cao is the Sikong of the Han Dynasty, so I am working for the Han Dynasty, not for him Cao Mengde alone.

This was what Guan Yu thought in his heart, and at this time, when Xun You and everyone saw that it was Guan Yu who asked, they were relieved. Yes, in addition to this uncle, who else under the Yanzhou military tent dares to snatch words in front of his lord, and this one is not afraid of heaven and earth, and his lord has to hold the beard for him, for fear that this one will be unhappy, so he will switch to other princes.

Xun You looked at it, and said in his heart Sure enough, the people here, except for you Guan Yu Guan Yunchang, who else dares to do this. But you asked, but I didn't dare answer you like that. So Xun You didn't say anything directly, but looked at his lord, only to see Cao Cao smile at Xun You, and said directly: "What Yun Chang said is also what I want to ask, Gongda, you can tell me, why do you think so?" ”——

After listening to his lord's words, Xun Yu said in his heart, Guan Yu, Guan Yunchang, you think that you are valued by your lord, yes, this is good, but you still don't know the current affairs, the lord doesn't care about you on the surface, this is not wrong, but sooner or later, maybe one day, it won't be necessarily, hehe.

Xun You still doesn't know his lord, who his lord is, he still knows more or less. So he knew that his lord had indeed put up with Guan Yu for the time being, but if Guan Yu was always like this, sooner or later his lord would not be able to bear it. So I hope that Guan Yu can understand current affairs, but don't be ignorant of current affairs.

As a strategist, Xun You doesn't have any dislike for Guan Yu, nor does he have any special appreciation, even if Guan Yu has a lot of strengths, but he also has the same shortcomings, so Xun You didn't think too much about it. But to be honest, he really didn't want to have any big contradictions with his lord because of Guan Yu's character, in that case, to be honest, it would not be good for anyone.

In fact, in Xun You's opinion, even if Guan Yu didn't worship his lord, as long as he was in the Yanzhou Army, then he was stronger than anything else, at least he was not an enemy, so ......-

But if the contradiction between his lord and Guan Yu is getting deeper and deeper, and he can't solve it in the end, then this is definitely not what he Xun You wants to see. In Xun Yu's opinion, no matter what, a person like Guan Yu can't be used by his own side, and he definitely can't let the enemy use it, otherwise his own losses will be great.

Don't look at the strategists, they basically don't have too high a force, but to be honest, there are almost no soft-hearted people who are strategists. Indeed, you said that if you use a strategy, you may be able to kill tens of thousands of people, so if you are really soft-hearted, then you must not be able to do this, what kind of plan do you use, there are no immortals in the war, what kind of war is it called, it is all too peaceful.

Therefore, those who are strategists are ruthless people, and they are ruthless to a certain extent, just like Jia Xu, and it is not nothing. But Jia Xu is known as a poisoner, this has to be said, like him, it is true that not everyone is like this.

After Xun You listened to his lord's words, he directly promised: "No! ”——

After glancing at his lord, he looked at Guan Yu, and then said with a smile: "Lord, General Guan, everyone, the current situation ......" (to be continued......)
