"What should we do, Zhicai, Wen Ruo, what do you say we should do now?" Cao Cao said with a wry smile.

At the beginning, with 10,000 soldiers and horses, he dared to go directly to Dong Zhuo to fight hard, what courage he was, but now, in the face of the current Zhou Fan, he was really powerless, and he really couldn't think of any other way to compete with Zhou Fan.

"I ......"

"My lord, the only way we have at present is to unite Yuan Shao, and only by uniting the two of us can we have any hope of being able to fight against Zhou Fan!" Xun Yu said without hesitation, but with their current strength, no matter what method they use, they cannot be the opponent of Zhou Fan's million-strong army, only by joining forces with Yuan Shao can they have a chance, even if this opportunity is so slim, but at least it can be regarded as a glimmer of hope.

Xi Zhicai looked at Xun Yu with a somewhat complicated face, he wanted to speak just now, but Xun Yu took the lead, in his opinion, with their current situation, there is really no need to continue to fight, in the face of the general trend, they have no hope, and if they continue to fight, it will only add casualties.

And he also understands the relationship between Zhou Fan and Cao Cao, if Cao Cao chooses to surrender, then Zhou Fan will definitely not treat Cao Cao badly, which may not be a good thing, when the world is unified, there will be no more war, and their old brothers can also get together again, such a day seems to be good.

But this is just his personal idea, Cao Cao's current thoughts he can't guess yet, but Xun Yu, it's not even necessary to guess, he will never compromise with Zhou Fan, and even if he has the opportunity, he will fight Zhou Fan to the end.

These people, even Cao Cao, have some ambitions, more or less different, but Xun Yu is different, he is a staunch supporter of the Han family, even if the Han family is now dead, he has never changed his belief.

It is precisely because of this that after seeing Zhou Fan, who is so ambitious and wants to change the dynasty, it is destined that they will definitely be opposites, and he will never compromise with Zhou Fan, so naturally there are such remarks as above.

"You're still uniting with Yuan Shao, Lord Xun, haven't you been cheated enough by him!" Hearing Xun Yu's words, Xiahou Chun suddenly shouted angrily, the last time it was because of Yuan Shao's fault that the grain and grass of their coalition army were burned, if it weren't for the Tuntian to let them hoard some grain and grass in Yanzhou, now they would have to go hungry, but even so, they Yanzhou has now begun to cut back on food and clothing, these are all things that Yuan Shao made, and now Xun Yu actually wants to unite with Yuan Shao, is this now being killed by him.

"Then General Xiahou, do you have any other way now, or do you have the ability to fight against Zhou Fan's million-strong army alone!" Xun Yu shouted not to be outdone.

"Me? Is there a way I can ask you more!" Xiahou Chun shouted with some annoyance, he is just a military general, only responsible for fighting, as for the method or something, shouldn't it be something that a strategist like you consider.

"So my solution is to unite with Yuan Shao......" Xun Yu said loudly, this is their only chance, he definitely doesn't want to see Zhou Fan unify the world and change the dynasty.

"Enough, don't make any noise!" Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Cao Cao hurriedly stopped the two of them, glanced at everyone, and sighed again.

To be honest, his heart is still very calm now, or he doesn't have much sense of crisis, because he is also very clear about the relationship between himself and Zhou Fan, both friend and foe, if he chooses to surrender now, then Zhou Fan will not treat him badly, but he is still unwilling to admit defeat.

Starting from Luoyang, when the Yellow Turban Uprising, the two of them can be said to have started from the same starting line, but since then, Zhou Fan has to be stronger than him at any time, the Yellow Turban Rebellion punished Zhang Jiao, and the princes of the Eighteenth Road killed Dong Zhuo when they begged for Dong, and then he finally gained a firm foothold in Yanzhou, Zhou Fan already had seven or eight states in his hands, and the gap was so big that he couldn't help but give birth to a kind of mind of both Shengfan and Shengfan.

This time it should be the second time that the two of them collided head-on, this is probably the last head-on confrontation, he really doesn't want to admit defeat so easily, no matter what, he has to resist well, he can't lose too ugly, otherwise I'm too sorry for his efforts over the years.

Therefore, in his heart, he is still more inclined to unite with Yuan Shao, even if Yuan Shao is indeed a pit, a pig teammate, but it is not an opportunity, even if he loses, he has to lose beautifully.

But soon, his idea was completely dispelled.

"My lord, there is an urgent secret report from Jizhou......"

Just when Cao Cao and them were discussing, Cao Cao's personal guards directly broke in with a secret report.

"Jizhou's secret report, it shouldn't be that even Jizhou has fallen!" Xiahou Chun blurted out, and several other people were also surprised, at this time, there was a secret report from Jizhou, coupled with the previous form, if Jizhou was also breached, it would really be fun, then there was no need for them to continue to resist, or simply surrender directly.

"Impossible...... No matter how unbearable Yuan Shao is, it is impossible to lose Jizhou like this!" Xun Yu shook his head and said, Zhou Fan's current main army is still on the side of Yuzhou, and there are only Zhang Ren and 80,000 troops in Jizhou, while Yuan Shao is in Jizhou, but he has more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and he also has the advantage of the city wall.

"What!" Xi Zhicai didn't talk as much nonsense as them, he directly took the secret report and opened it to take a look, and he was shocked that the whole person lost his soul, no way, this news is really shocking, even if Jizhou and Qingzhou are all broken now, and some people even say that Yuan Shao surrendered directly, he will not be like this, he never thought that such a situation would happen.

Yuan Shao...... He is also called the emperor!" Seeing Xi Zhicai's appearance, Xun Yu also had an ominous premonition in his heart, and hurriedly snatched the secret report from Xi Zhicai's hand, looked at it, and the next moment he was stumbling, pale, and muttering in disbelief.

"It's ...... Another crazy one!" Cao Cao took the secret report calmly, glanced at it, and a helpless smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, after many years, after Yuan Shu, this time even Yuan Shao was also called the emperor, it is really unpredictable, it seems that this time, he has no choice.
