In the prefect's office of Dongjun.

Cao Cao looked at the military information in front of his eyes, and none of the people in the audience dared to speak. As we all know, although Cao Cao is usually smiling, but once he gets angry, it is very terrible.

"Thirteen days ago, sun CE, the eldest son of Sun Jian of the eastern Wu Dynasty, suddenly pressed all the 300000 garrison troops in Xuzhou to the borders of Xuzhou, Yanzhou and Qingzhou. Seven days ago, all of the 250000 troops in Jingzhou were referred to Hangu pass. Gentlemen, what do you think of the preparation of the Soochow? " Cao Cao read the military situation coldly at first, and then his eyes swept over the audience.

It's not surprising that Cao Cao lost his temper. No matter the 250000 Jingzhou troops in Hangu pass, the 300000 troops in Xuzhou alone were so oppressed on the border of both sides. This is a provocation without any disguise. What's more, sun CE was still a generation younger than Cao Cao. He was bullied to the end by others. It was hard for anyone to swallow this tone.

"Lord!" Cao Xiu, who was sitting at the end of the table, suddenly stood up and said to Cao Cao, "my Lord! Dai Mo will lead a large army to capture sun cesheng and present it to the Lord! "

"Wenlie!" Looking at Cao Cao's more and more gloomy face, Cao ang, the eldest son of Cao Cao who is close to Cao Xiu, quickly pulls Cao Xiu down. "Stop messing about!"

Cao Xiu wanted to say something, but Cao Ren on the other side glared back. Cao Ren, these generals, was also very uncomfortable. The LORD was insulted to such an extent that he could not fight back. It can only be said that they were not up to the standard.

"Lord!" Jia Xu stood up and bowed his hand to Cao Cao and asked, "what about the new army of Jiangdong?"

Cao Cao remembered what Jia Xu had said to him some time ago. He quickly turned up the military information and finally found out the military information about the Jiangdong new army. After a close look, his face was gloomy again. He said to Jia Xu, "ten days ago, Sun Jian personally led the new Jiangdong army from Jianye and went directly to Jiaozhou!"

"Jiaozhou?" The people exclaimed again. Now that Jiaozhou and Yizhou have been removed from the south of the Yangtze River, all of them have been occupied by Dongwu. If Sun Jian leads his troops to take Jiaozhou, he is afraid that he will take Yizhou as soon as possible. By then, all the South will be owned by sun Jian!

Just when Cao Cao and others were all depressed, Jia Xu bowed his head and pondered for a while, then showed a smile: "Lord! I have fully affirmed that the mysterious army in Youzhou is the one under Sun Jian of Dongwu! "

"Ah?" When Cao Cao heard this, he opened his eyes and looked at Jia Xu. "Isn't all the three legions of Soochow revealed?"

Jia Xu shook his head and said, "it is because of all the movements of the three legions that his subordinates are sure that this mysterious army is from Soochow. Doesn't the Lord feel strange? As soon as the mysterious legion of Youzhou appeared, the three regiments of Soochow here happened to have such a big move, as if they were trying to prove their existence. "

Hearing Jia Xu's words, not only Cao Cao but also other people began to think about it. Zhang Liao, who surrendered with the emperor of Han Dynasty, exclaimed: "according to what you said, besides Xuzhou, Jingzhou and Jiangdong new army, there is a fourth army of hundreds of thousands of troops in Dongwu?" After Zhang Liao and others surrendered to Cao Cao, they wanted to revenge Lu Bu day and night. But according to Jia Xu, Dongwu is stronger than expected, so the hope of revenge is getting smaller and smaller.

Jia Xu also understood the meaning of Zhang Liao's question, sighed and said, "in fact, it's not a good thing to know now. It's better than to know when we fight against Soochow in the future."

Cao Cao continued to read the information, and finally sighed: "Sun Jian handed Jianye to Chen Zici, the Dragon general. He personally led a total of 460000 new Jiangdong troops to Jiaozhou. It seems that Sun Jian intends to take Jiaozhou and Yizhou and unify the south." When Cao Cao thought of Chen Liu's alliance, he was one of the best princes in the 18th route. But now Sun Jian is about to win half of the country. However, he is still worried about the gains and losses of a state.

As soon as Jia Xu saw the appearance of Cao Cao, he lost his confidence, and immediately said to Cao Cao, "don't worry, my Lord. Sun Jian just occupies the land compared with the Lord.". However, the Lord has now taken control of the emperor of the Han Dynasty. The northerners have always been better at fighting than the southerners. This is the harmony of human beings. The Lord just needs to continue to expand and surpass Sun Jian and achieve hegemony! " In order to restore Cao Cao's self-confidence, Jia Xu had to make up his mind at random. What northerners are better at fighting than southerners? Why should they be northerners or southerners.

Cao Cao didn't know Jia Xu's painstaking efforts. He only shook his head slowly and said to Jia Xu, "don't worry, sir. I'm not so easily defeated by people! However, if you want to achieve great things, you still have to rely on your husband and other gentlemen! "

When they saw Cao Cao's life revived, they all saluted him. It must be said that Cao Cao has a special personal charm, which can make the people under his command inspire confidence. Even Guan Yu and Zhang Fei can't help but be full of confidence in Cao Cao.

Cao Cao asked Jia Xu, "Sir, although we can all guess that the mysterious army in Youzhou was sent by Sun Jian, we have no evidence to rely on Sun Jian! So what are we going to do now? "Jia Xu frowned and thought for a while, then raised his head and said, "my Lord! We'll do nothing next! Just one word: wait

"Wait?" Cao Cao and others looked at Jia Xu in disbelief, and did not understand Jia Xu's meaning.

Jia Xu explained: "if his subordinates have not guessed wrong, Sun Jian sent this army to Youzhou for the sole purpose of preventing the Lord from seizing Youzhou. Although I don't know how Sun Jian transferred this army from the Lord's territory to Youzhou, I think this method must not be used frequently. Otherwise, the army does not have to replace the county. According to the intelligence of the day before yesterday, the regiment had played the banner of Liu Yu, the former governor of Youzhou, obviously to cover up. Moreover, Gongsun Zan certainly did not know the true origin of the army. If we continue to send troops to Youzhou now, we will only let Gongsun Zan and this regiment unite against our army, so we must not send troops to Youzhou now! "

Guan Yu immediately asked, "but if we don't send troops to Youzhou, how can we capture Youzhou?" In fact, in Guan Yu's heart, whether you can capture Youzhou or not is the second most important thing. Killing Gongsun Zan is the most important thing.

"Ha ha ha ha ha!" Jia Xu laughed a few times. To be honest, Jia Xu's laughter was really not flattering. At least, several people around him couldn't help shivering. Jia Xu said to Guan Yu, "general Guan! Don't worry! Although we do not send troops to Youzhou, it does not mean that Gongsun Zan can be peaceful. It was Gongsun Zan who killed Liu Yu at that time, but now this army has captured Daijun under the banner of Liu Yu. Although Gongsun Zan may not believe it, it must be uncomfortable to see such a nail buried in his side over time. If the LORD sent troops to continue to attack Youzhou, his Gongsun Zan might be afraid. But as long as we stop the attack on Youzhou, Gongsun Zan, who is recovering his strength, must be looking for trouble with this army! What we have to do is to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. When one of them is defeated, we are going into Youzhou. No matter Gongsun Zan wins or this mysterious army wins, they will not be our opponents! "

Xia Houdun, who had been silent beside Cao Ren, suddenly opened his mouth and asked, "Sir, what if the mysterious army told Gongsun Zan its identity and intention? Are they not able to fight? "

Jia Xu looked at Xia Houdun with admiration on his face, and he could not help praising that Xia Houdun was indeed the first general of the Cao army. He thought carefully. Jia Xu continued to explain: "good question from general Xiahou! But I don't expect that the commander of this army will never tell Gongsun Zan his identity and purpose! "

Cao Cao was busy and strange: "Sir, why can you make this judgment?"

Jia Xu stroked his chin and said, "my Lord, have you ever thought who Gongsun Zan is? This man is narrow-minded, and he will report his revenge! Sun Jian sent the commander-in-chief to this Youzhou army. How could he not know Gongsun Zan's temperament? How dare they put such a big deal in the hands of Gongsun Zan? Besides, even if they dare to tell Gongsun Zan their identity, will Gongsun Zan easily believe it? Even if Gongsun Zan believes it, he will not rest assured that Sun Jian will place such a huge army in his side. As long as we relieve the pressure on him, Gongsun Zan will still fight against them! "

Jia Xu made an analysis and said that in the hearts of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, isn't Gongsun Zan such a person? At this time, he secretly regretted that he did not see Gongsun Zan's behavior, which led to Liu Bei's death.

Cao Cao carefully filtered Jia Xu's words, and immediately clapped his thigh and said, "good! According to what Mr. Sun Zan said, I'll compare my patience with Gongsun Zan! Yuan rang

Xia Hou Dun stood out with a stiff face and clasped his fist at Cao Cao. Cao Cao has been used to the cold Xia Houdun these days, and said to Xia Houdun with no idea at all: "I order you governor Jizhou troops and horses to train a strong army in Jizhou as soon as possible during this period of time!"

Xia Houdun's eyes finally showed a trace of heat, but then disappeared again. He bowed his head to Cao Cao and said, "the last general will take command of him."

Cao Cao was drinking again: "filial piety!"

Then, Cao Ren, the governor of Cao Ren, said, "I want to expand the army in the shortest time."

Cao Ren also bowed his head and said, "I will take orders at the end."

Cao Cao stood up and said to the front, "from today on, I will have a good match with sun Wentai."
