"Lord, Yuan Shao's army is rolling in, why do you still have the heart to drink here? Ahem..."

Because of his illness, Xi Zhicai was haggard at this time, although Guo Jia also asked Hua Tuo to dispense some medicine to Xi Zhicai when he was receiving treatment, but after all, there was no face-to-face diagnosis, and the time for Xi Zhicai to take Wushisan was much higher than Guo Jia's, it was already difficult to cure, and he could only use medicine to continue his life.

"Zhicai, now that Yuan Shao has an army of one million, but the army I can fight is less than 200,000, how can I win? Now that the people in Xudu City are already panicking, and everyone is looking for a way out for themselves, do I still have any hope of winning? ”

As he spoke, Cao Cao drank all the wine in his cup.

The scouts on the front line have already sent the information of Yuan's army, although it is less than a million, but it is not far away.

The scout's report said that Yuan's army was like the sea, dense and endless, and the banner covered the sky and the sun, and it was unstoppable.

"By the way, my lord, I met two sons outside the door, why don't my lords send them out too."

Xi Zhicai did not answer Cao Cao's words, but changed the topic.

Without waiting for Cao Cao to react, Xi Zhicai took a few steps back and called the two sons outside the door in.

Cao Pi is ten years old and looks very clever, although Cao Zhi on the side is only five years old, he is clean and looks very aura.

Seeing his two sons, Cao Cao's face finally showed a slight smile.

"I've seen my father."

"Good."

Cao Cao's two hands touched the little heads of his two sons.

"Now that Yuan Shao's army wants to fight your father, Yuan's army has a million people, but our army is less than 200,000, and it will definitely be defeated. Now your Father wants to send you away, are you willing? ”

"My father is eloquent and strategic, how can he be afraid of Yuan Shao, if I don't leave, my father will definitely be able to repel Yuan Shao."

Cao Pi was the first to speak.

At first, when he heard Xi Zhicai say that he was bound to lose, Cao Cao's mood fell again, but after hearing Cao Pi's words, Cao Cao recovered slightly.

The young Cao Zhicai didn't quite understand Xi Zhicai's words, but when he heard Xi Zhicai say that Cao Cao was going to send them away, he immediately hugged Cao Cao's thigh with tears in his eyes.

"Father, I don't want to leave, I want to follow Father."

Seeing this scene, Cao Cao couldn't help but complain a little about scaring his son.

"My lord, can the words of the two sons restore your confidence? Do you want to watch your sons being murdered by Yuan Shao? ”

"I'm going to protect them naturally, it's just..."

Xi Zhi knew what Cao Cao was going to say, and softly asked the two sons to leave.

"I know what the lord is worried about, so I can swear here that the lord will win this battle."

Cao Cao didn't expect Xi Zhicai to say this, the difference in strength can be seen by fools, how dare Xi Zhicai say this, can he still find heavenly soldiers and generals?

"The reason why I said that the lord will win is because the lord has ten victories, and Yuan Shao has ten defeats."

"Huh?"

Cao Cao's eyes immediately lit up, and he respectfully bowed his hand to Xi Zhicai: "Please also ask Zhicai to tell me in detail." ”

"First, Yuan Shao is burdened by his family background, and there are too many red tape etiquette that needs to be found, and he will be burdened by it. And the lord goes with the flow and is not informal, which is far better than Yuan Shao. ”

"Second, the emperor is in Xudu, and Yuan Shao's attack on the lord is to rebel against the Han family, and the lord supports the emperor and has great righteousness, which is better than Yuan Shao."

"Third, Yuan Shao's army discipline is sloppy, the prestige of the lord is insufficient, and the lord is strict with the army, and he has a very high prestige in the army, which is better than Yuan Shao."

"Fourth, Yuan Shao seems to attach importance to talents and is thirsty for talents, but in fact he has a narrow stomach and only reuses people close to him, while the main public uses people who are discerning and does not doubt that as long as he has talent, he can be reused, which is far better than Yuan Shao."

"Fifth, Yuan Shao is indecisive, scheming, doing big things and sparing his life, forgetting his life when he sees small profits, and the lord is decisive in decision-making, never hesitates, and is far better than Yuan Shao in strategy."

At first, Cao Cao didn't take Xi Zhicai's words very seriously, but as Xi Zhicai continued to speak, Cao Cao's eyes became more and more bright.

Sixth, Yuan Shao holds his own identity and is only willing to receive people with noble status, but he is unwilling to approach people with low status. And the lord reuses talents without sticking to one pattern, and those who have real talents and real learning are willing to defect to you, which is far better than Yuan Shao. ”

Seventh, Yuan Shao only saw the hungry and cold people in front of him and helped them, but he didn't care about what he couldn't see. Lord, you don't care about small things, but you can help the hungry and cold people all over the world, and you are far better than Yuan Shao in terms of benevolence. ”

"Eighth, Yuan Shao's ministers are intrigued, but the lord's courtiers are working together, which is not comparable to Yuan Shao."

"Ninth, Yuan Shao does not distinguish between rewards and punishments, and the lord is never stingy with what he wants to reward, and he will never tolerate those who want to be punished, which Yuan Shao is not as good as the lord."

"Tenth, Yuan Shao likes to bluff, and he doesn't know the art of war, and the lord is like a god, often winning more with less, and the enemy is afraid of you, which Yuan Shao is not the opponent of the lord."

"Now that the lord has ten places that are far superior to Yuan Shao, what reason is there not to defeat Yuan Shao?"

After listening to Xi Zhicai's words, Cao Cao suddenly became energetic.

He stood up suddenly, slammed his glass on the ground, and was about to head to the hall, where there were many Cao generals waiting for him.

"Ahem... Cough.. Ahem...."

finally insisted on saying all the words, and Xi Zhi coughed violently again.

Cao Cao, who was striding forward, stopped abruptly and wanted to come to help him.

"The lord still has important things to do, don't worry about me."

Seeing that Xi Zhicai said this, Cao Cao didn't stay anymore, and asked the little servant to send Xi Zhicai back to the room, and he went to the front hall to arrange military affairs.

Removed the sleeve covering his mouth and nose, it was covered with blood, but Xi Zhicai didn't seem to care.

"Fengxiao, although I don't know why you sent me this ten wins and ten defeats to inspire the lord's fighting spirit, but as long as I am in one day, I will stop you from playing any tricks against the lord."

It turned out that these ten wins and ten defeats were not what Xi Zhicai thought, but were sent by Guo Jia, of course, this is also what Qin Hua meant.

Although Xi Zhicai knew that Qin Hua could not help motivate Cao Cao's fighting spirit for no reason, this article was really useful, so he still told Cao Cao, but it turned out to be very useful.

"Go and grab the medicine according to my prescription, and I will take double the amount of medicine in the future."

Xi Zhicai didn't have the heart to think about Qin Hua's intentions now, but the most important thing now was to defeat Yuan Shao, and when the time came, he would get Yuan Shao's power, and who in the world would be able to stop his lord, so he must insist on living until Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao now.
