"More than 2,700 were killed, more than 3,600 were wounded, and more than 1,200 escaped........" Cao Cao read the information in his hand, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but pull a smile, and he looked back at Xun Yu and Cheng Yu and said, "Wen Ruo, Zhongde, you say, Yuan Benchu's Hebei Four Court Pillars, are they all just at this level?" ”

"Maybe," Xun Yu looked at the battle report in his hand, he had always been strict and upright, and he couldn't help laughing at this time: "However, the lord should not gloat here." Yan Liang and Wen Chou are both tiger and wolf generals, charging into battle, destroying the enemy and beheading them as the vanguard, but they are brave and resourceless, and they are useless. However, Zhang Jaw Zhang Jun is brave and knowledgeable, and his reputation is famous. Presumably, at this time, he has already seen through the master's plan to kill people with a knife. If the minister's expectations are not bad, after a while, the two of them will come to invite the lord to help in the battle. ”

"This is natural," Cao Cao put down the battle report in his hand, and said after retracting the smile on his face: "Lu Bu is really unexpected, and he can't imagine that under the exhaustion of oil and lamps, internal fatigue and external troubles, he still cleverly used tricks to kill Wen Chou, causing Yuan Shao's army of 30,000 to kill more than 6,000 people overnight. With such means, even if I go to the battlefield myself, my life hangs by a thread........"

"Isn't the lord afraid?!" Cheng Yu has always spoken arrogantly, and it is not the first time that such disrespectful words have been made.

However, Cao Cao seemed to have become accustomed to Cheng Yu's way of speaking, and he was not half annoyed by this, but nodded in response: "If you are not afraid, it is fake." At the moment when the world's unparalleled god of war halberd was in the air, Cao really thought that he would never see the sun tomorrow again. If it weren't for the jade that was given to me at that festival........."

"Duke Ming, this battle report said that Lu Bu threw fire oil and rocks today, and also shot a lot of arrows........ and when he set out on the expedition, Lu Bu actually brought five hundred of the most elite wolf riders from Bingzhou." Cheng Yu interrupted Cao Cao's memories and immersed himself directly in his own thoughts, and then suddenly looked at Cao Cao and said, "Don't you think that Ming Gong thinks that this is a harbinger of a ruined boat?" ”

"Oh?" Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't care about annoying Cheng Yu to anger him again. In fact, every time Cheng Yu was about to get angry, he could always say something important to make Cao Cao immediately divert his attention. This time, of course, is no exception.

Sure enough, after Cao Cao read the battle report, his brows were already slightly furrowed. However, based on these vague phenomena alone, Cao Cao could not conclude whether Cheng Yu's judgment was accurate, and between his groaning, he suddenly asked a very bizarre question: "Xiahou Yuan and Yu Ban are there, how is the battle?" ”

"My lord, General Xiahou had made a surprise attack on Waihuang in Chenliu County the day before yesterday, and General Yu Ban also waved his army into Fugou County. In addition, General Cao Ren still mobilized 20,000 troops to fight to the death in Yongqiu, so under the attack from three sides, it must be possible to attack Chen Liu, the place of governance, and capture Zhang Miao alive! Xun Yu picked up another battle report in his hand, and described the battle situation in Chen Liujun concisely.

"Capture Zhang Miao alive?" After Cao Cao heard this, he sneered with his short beard. The two narrow eyes unnaturally leaked a bit of murderous intent in the afterglow.

Seeing this, Xun Yu was about to step forward to persuade him, but Cao Cao waved his hand at this time and said: "If Wen Ruo doesn't need to say much, I know that Zhang Miao can't be killed for the time being, so let's capture it alive this time........

"Not only must he be captured alive, but the lord must also be generous and encouraged, and he will caress Zhang Miao!" Cheng Yu spoke very politely, but he definitely hit the nail on the head: in today's situation, after Cao Cao led Yuan Shao to send troops, he did take the initiative. But if Cao Cao still wants to manage and consolidate Yanzhou, then Zhang Miao must not be killed, not only that, Cao Cao also has to put on a leniency that is not to blame in the past, and treat Zhang Miao as a model to appease the hearts of those powerful people in Yanzhou!

However, although Cheng Yu was as right as ever this time. But he teased Cao Cao three times and twice today, which has already aroused Cao Cao's true fire, Cao Cao suddenly looked back at Cheng Yu, and said with a gloomy face: "After Ping Lu Bu and Ding Yanzhou, Zhang Miao's dog life can be killed and taken by me Cao Mengdeyu?!" ”

"This is natural, if Duke Cao is interested, the minister heard that Zhang Miao's fourth concubine is as beautiful as a flower........" Cheng Yu's face remained unchanged, as calm as water, as if he was talking to Cao Cao about tomorrow's weather.

And after Cao Cao looked at Cheng Yu twice, he actually turned his face and smiled, patted Cheng Yu's back and said: "Zhongde, he is really a wonderful person, Cao Mou won Zhongde, it is really a blessing for three lives!" ”

Xun Yu on the side witnessed the conversation between Cao Cao and Cheng Yu, and his face couldn't help but darken. But at the same time, he also knew that in the troubled times, only a true temperament like Cao Cao who dared to be the first could sweep away the world and realize the ambition in his heart. It's just that this kind of greed for beauty and forbearance and murder, I don't know? ……..

Just when Xun Yu was thinking about running away, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the tent, Xun Yu heard the sound, and Cao Cao and Cheng Yu glanced at each other, and the three of them understood a meaning at the same time: The one asking for help is coming!

Sure enough, as soon as the tent door was opened, Yan Liangqi, who had a resolute face and was full of anger, walked inside, bowed his hand and said, "Meet Cao Gong!" ”

"No need to be polite," Cao Cao, who had already done it, said this, and then waved his hand and said: "There is no need to say more, tomorrow, Cao will work together with the two generals to break through Puyang City to repay the great favor of Duke Yuan!" ”

Seeing this, the two of them couldn't help but look surprised, but then the two of them bowed down and saluted: "Thank you Cao Gong, the last general will retire!" ”

He came in a hurry, and without saying a word, he left in a hurry. This kind of process makes Zhang Jaw appreciate it very much - for the general, he only needs to obey orders like this, and act vigorously and resolutely.

Sure enough, he glanced at Yan Liang again, and Yan Liang, who couldn't help but speak, said: "Although Cao Cao is arrogant, he uses his military heart to win more than the lord. Think about the noise of the strategist Wenchen when we sent troops into Dongjun, hey........"

Zhang Jaw was speechless, in this regard, he was also helpless and irritable, but he and Yan Liang showed a 'sympathetic' look, and then they each returned to their accounts and prepared for tomorrow's general attack.

And these two didn't know that just after they left, in Cao Cao's tent, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu also quarreled rarely.

"By no means, Zhang Miao has not been broken, the people's hearts have not been closed, so in such a hurry, every time Lu Bu is trapped in the beast, our army will suffer a big loss!" This is Xun Yu's voice, although the tone is not big, but the firmness in it is beyond doubt.

"The hearts of the people in Yanzhou are all in Puyang, Lu Bu is destroyed, and Chen Liuke is down! Wen Ruo Mo wants the kindness of a woman, although there will be heavy casualties tomorrow, but Lu Bu can only make a desperate bet, we have the certainty of victory, sacrifice a few more soldiers, in exchange for the lord's early recovery of Yanzhou, the gains outweigh the losses! Cheng Yu's words are also very reasonable.

In fact, the words of the two have always been correct. Just like those celebrities and strategists under Yuan Shao, they are all far-sighted. However, even in this case, the trade-offs become the key to testing their leadership skills.

Obviously, Cao Cao had already made a choice before that. Therefore, this time he didn't need to explain more, at this time, he just leaned slightly towards Xun Yu and asked, "Wen Ruo, what is there that makes you worry?" ”

Xun Yu glanced at Cao Cao with a complicated expression, and once again believed in his concept of choosing Cao Cao, the male lord, but after turning his eyes, he still said suddenly: "Ma Chao has entered Xuzhou for more than half a month, presumably at this time, he should return......."

"Hmm........" Cao Cao took a breath lightly, and his expression moved: "This matter is indeed my negligence, Ma Chao's ability is ten times better than Lu Bu, and this time he enters Xuzhou, it will definitely attract Liu Bei's army to come together." And he is as cunning as a fox, and he is very good at using troops in surprise attacks, if he returns tomorrow........"

"So ........" Xun Yu listened to Cao Cao's meaning, and stepped forward to persuade Cao Cao to break Chen Liujun first, and then stay out of the matter, and after watching Ma Chao and Yuan Shao compete, he tried to develop.

However, Cao Cao raised his hand to stop Xun Yu this time, and Leng Yi said: "So, this time it's a gamble!" If you win, I, Cao Mengde, will be able to take Yanzhou like a bamboo. If you lose, you will face the giant crocodile of the Ma family........ however, I, Cao Mengde, have never refused to gamble, and I have ordered the whole army to inform Zhang Jaw Yan Liang that he will attack Puyang tonight, and he will not break it! ”
