Chapter Forty-Six: Cao Ang's Ambition

Xuzhou, Xiapi.

Lu Bu gathered 30,000 troops and pointed at Xiaopei.

The accompanying generals include Zhang Liao Gaoshun, as well as strategists like Chen Gong, such a luxurious lineup is enough to see that Lu Bu is bound to win Xiao Pei.

This unparalleled general in the world, when he was sober-minded, united with his strongest strategist Chen Gong, and was almost invincible.

Two years ago, Cao Cao was introduced into the city and almost killed, and even if he was defeated, it was just a divisive plan.

Now that the civil and military are united, why worry about big things?

"Gongtai, we attack Liu Bei, Cao Cao will not stand idly by, it is best to be able to fight quickly in this battle, what plan do you have?"

On the march, Lu Bu looked at Chen Gong beside him, and his words were quite respectful.

In the face of Lu Bu's inquiry, Chen Gong pondered for a while, then began to brush his beard, and then said confidently.

"Feng Xian rest assured, Xiaopei is not a strong city, Liu Bei's soldiers and horses are less than 10,000 people, once our troops come to Picheng, the entire city will be surrounded and divided into troops to attack, there is no reason to conquer!"

Although he went to the army to fight and plot, in the face of this absolute strength, all the plans were in vain.

What's more, Chen Gong himself is also a resourceful person, how could he be afraid of Liu Bei's fraud?

Seeing that Chen Gong was so confident, Lu Bu was also quite excited, and after nodding, he also said angrily.

"Humph! This big-eared thief will take revenge, and this time he will be eradicated! In this way, even if Cao Cao comes to attack, General Ben is not afraid! ”

Lu Bu and Cao Cao are old rivals, and it is precisely because of this that they know that they and his forces are aware of it.

Although Cao Cao's soldiers and horses are stronger than his own, this perception can be compensated for by the defense of the city, so he is not afraid.

The only thing that worries him is whether Cao Cao's army will suddenly kill Liu Bei when his army is recruiting Liu Bei.

Perhaps seeing Lu Bu's worries, Chen Gong also spoke comforting on the side at this time.

"Feng Xian, rest assured, Xiapi is close to Xiaopei, and Xu Du is far away from Xiaopei, there is a five-day gap in the middle, as long as we can capture Xiaopei within five days, Cao Cao plans to sneak attack Xiaopei or Xiapi, it's too late!"

As a strategist, such a simple calculation Chen Gong still clearly understood.

It's just that he missed one thing, that is, this Cao Cao had already started to march in advance before they set out to conquer Xiaopei!

As early as after the letter was delivered to Xiao Pei and the plan succeeded, when Lu Bu was still discussing with the generals how to raise troops to attack Liu Bei, Cao Cao sent troops in advance.

So the real gap between the two sides is only four days!

Although it is only a one-day difference, it may not affect the overall situation, but once Lu Bu attacks Xiao Pei and is really delayed until the last day, then he will fall into the situation of being attacked by the enemy on his back!

……

Two days later, on the Yanxu border, Cao Cao's army officially stepped into the Xuzhou border.

Although there are soldiers stationed at the checkpoints along the way, they are just soldiers to maintain law and order, and Cao Cao is not embarrassed by them.

Not only because he knew that these people couldn't make any big waves, but also because this time he was carrying the will of the Son of Heaven and under the banner of quelling the rebellion, so naturally he couldn't do these things that harmed the people.

"Pass the order, all soldiers must not hurt the people on the march, and must not destroy the fertile land, if there is a violator, the military law will deal with it!"

After a strict explanation, Cao Cao's army began to move forward in a mighty manner.

At the front of the army, Cao Ren was leading the march, and next to him, Cao Ang was patiently listening to Guo Jia talk about Xuzhou.

This Xuzhou has always been Tao Qian's territory before, although he is not a sage, but he is not a mediocre lord, the people in the territory are not rich, but they also have a bite to eat.

In this troubled world, it is already good to have such treatment.

But with Cao Cao's conquest of Xuzhou, Xuzhou fell into war, and the lives of the people also plummeted.

What Guo Jia is talking about now is the disaster brought to Xuzhou because of the Cao family's army.

Along the way, Cao Ang was also quite touched after seeing it with his own eyes.

The fertile fields can only be overgrown with weeds, and the densely populated towns are only young and old, and they seem rather dead.

Hearing Guo Jia say that these were all disasters brought about by his father's army in Xuzhou, Cao Ang naturally wanted to defend him.

"Fengxiao's words are wrong, although the Xuzhou Rebellion was caused by the division of the heroes, but the division of the heroes was caused by the Yellow Turban Riot, as for the Yellow Turban Riot, it was caused by the panic of the people."

"The world has become like this, and the people are not responsible, and the princes are not responsible."

After hearing this, Guo Jia was immediately stunned, he was a smart man, this Cao Ang said this, and the spearhead was pointed directly at the Son of Heaven!

"Childe is cautious, if you are so open-mouthed in the future, I am afraid that Prime Minister Cao Cheng will also be affected!"

Seeing that Guo Jia was so timid, Cao Ang also sneered, and only then did he speak after showing a bit of heroism.

"Fengxiao has been immersed in the land of wind and moon for a long time, and he should know that if men and women are happy with each other, they may have feelings in their veins. But if she is in love, she only thinks about how to untie her clothes. ”

"The same is true of this weakened Han family at the moment, some people have affection for it, but once the love is deep, someone has to go further."

After saying a word, seeing that Guo Jia seemed to have understood, and his face turned pale with fright, this Cao Ang continued to speak.

"Although Cao Zixuan is not talented, he is also willing to share his father's worries, if you can help me unravel the fig leaf of this great Han country, it will naturally be great!"

Cao Ang's words were extremely euphemistic, and they were also quite frivolous, and to outsiders, they might just be a merry boy talking about Fengyue with a merry man.

But after Guo Jia heard these words, he was completely shocked by the idea of the son in front of him, obviously he didn't expect that this son would have such ambitions at such a young age.

"Childe, My Fair Lady naturally has what other gentlemen want, if it is not for the forced behavior, I am afraid that not only will her reputation be lost, but she will also become the object of other gentlemen's enemies!"

Cao Ang's words were euphemistic, indicating his ambition to set up the Son of Heaven, and after Guo Jia understood it, he also expressed his worries tactfully.

That is, although the Han family is weakened at the moment, there are still many people loyal to the Han family, and if the pattern is changing rapidly, one is very likely to cause fire if he is not careful

Cao Ang was ambitious, so he naturally knew this, and after hearing Guo Jia's reminder, he also laughed and laughed.

"That's why I need your Guo Fengxiao's help!"
