Chapter 976: Sending troops to the Black Nest
Not long after sending Xu Chu away, someone came to inform Cao Shuo and asked him to go to Cao Cao's tent to discuss military affairs.
By the time Cao Shuo arrived, most of the generals and staff had already arrived.
Seeing that the people were almost here, Cao Cao said to everyone: "Last night, Xu You ran here from Yuan's camp and offered me a plan, asking me to personally lead the troops to Wuchao and burn the grain and grass of Yuan's army, what do you think?" ”
"Absolutely not." Before Cao Cao's words came out, Cao Ren stood up and said: "Cao Gong is the backbone of the soldiers of the three armies, if Cao Gong is not there, and the Yuan family suddenly attacks, how should we deal with it?" ”
"You are all people who lead troops, and you haven't seen me by my side in everything in the past." Cao Cao said: "The reason of Zixiao is too far-fetched. ”
Cao Ren was blocked back by Cao Cao, and Cao Hong stood up again and said, "Even if the generals can take charge alone, Cao Gong still can't go." If you want to go, you have to send someone else. ”
"Why?" Cao Cao asked.
"Wuchao went deep behind enemy lines, Xu You suddenly visited, who knows if he was true or false?" Cao Hong said: "In case he set up a bureau with Yuan Shao and fooled Cao Gong, how should we deal with it?" ”
"It's a possibility." Cao Cao said: "But since I choose to believe him, I will believe it to the end, not to mention that I still have Zhongkang by my side, with those people in the Yuan family, there is no way to take me." ”
Neither Cao Ren nor Cao Hong could persuade Cao Cao, and the generals set their sights on Cao Shuo, hoping that he would open his mouth to persuade him.
"Zirong, what do you think?" Cao Cao asked Cao Shuo.
Cao Shuo stood up, pretended to think about it, and said, "I agree with my father personally leading the troops to the Black Nest. ”
Most of the people didn't expect Cao Shuo to say that.
"Zirong Gongzi, Cao Gong's trip is very dangerous." Cao Hong said eagerly to Cao Shuo: "When the son speaks, you have to think about it." ”
"I've already figured it out." Cao Shuo said: "It is much safer for my father to go to the black nest than to stay here. ”
The generals all looked dazed, but the strategists nodded heartily.
"It is said that the black nest is guarded by Chun Yuqiong." Cao Shuo said: "Chun Yuqiong is greedy for fine wine, and he must drink until he gets drunk every day. Let him guard the black nest, the Yuan family is indeed a non-person. If my father is gone, as long as he fights quickly, he will definitely be able to burn all the enemy's food and grass. The real danger is not the black nest, but here. ”
"I don't quite understand what Childe said." Cao Ren frowned and asked, "The soldiers here have built a defense for a long time, even if the Yuan army wants to attack it, it is not so easy, how can it be more dangerous here than Wuchao?" ”
"First of all, the Yuan family didn't expect that my father would raid the black nest." Cao Shuo said: "When they react, the black nest has been taken and the fire has been put on, so my father just needs to leave calmly." As for here, once he learned that his father led the army to Wuchao, Yuan Shao must want to break through this place in one go, and the decisive battle between the two armies is here, so I said that the really dangerous place is precisely the place where the generals think it is the safest. ”
Bowing to Cao Cao with his fists in his fists, Cao Shuo said: "I wish my father a victory!" ”
"Who else thinks it's inappropriate for me to go in person?" Cao Cao asked everyone.
Cao Shuo made his position clear in support of Cao Cao's personal attack on Wuchao, although there were still people with different opinions, but it was not easy to say much.
"Cao Gong went in person, this is dangerous, please cherish it." Knowing that it was useless to say anything, Cao Ren sighed and saluted Cao Cao.
"Rest assured." Cao Cao smiled: "After fighting for so long, I finally saw the hope of winning, how could I give up so easily?" Whether our Cao family survives or dies depends on this battle. Whether the Han Sheji can be recovered or can only fall into the hands of thieves is also in this battle. Please also work together to fight the enemy with me! ”
"Don't worry, Cao Gong!" The crowd stood up.
"Zirong, you stay here this time." Cao Cao said: "No matter what, we must not let the Yuan army break through here." When I came back, I didn't want to have no roots. ”
"Father, rest assured." Cao Shuo said: "With me, the Yuan family can't get close to here for half a minute!" ”
"The people will obey." Cao Cao stood up: "I plan to set off tonight to raid the Black Nest, and Zhong Kang will accompany me." The rest of the people obeyed the deployment of Zirong and guarded their own formation. ”
"Order!" The crowd responded.
That night, Cao Cao led 2,000 soldiers to Wuchao.
Cao Shuo ordered the three armies to beware of a full-scale attack by the enemy.
While patrolling the camp, Cao Shuo saw a figure in front of him looking into the distance.
When he got closer, he found that the person was actually Xu You.
"Zi Yuangong." When he arrived behind Xu You, Cao Shuo beckoned, "Why are you standing here?" ”
Glancing back at Cao Shuo, Xu You said, "I'm waiting for Cao Gong to break Yuan's army." ”
"The news of my father's departure will soon be known to the Yuan family." Cao Shuo said: "Ziyuan Gong should go back to the camp first, so as not to be injured by mistake in the fight." ”
"With Gongzi here, what can the Yuan family do even if they attack on all fronts?" Xu You said: "If I were Yuan Shao, I would definitely send troops and horses to encircle and suppress Cao Gong, and then return to attack here." Once Cao Gong is killed or captured, this is also a one-hit break. ”
"So there is still a lot of risk in Ziyuan's plan?" Cao Shuo asked Xu You.
"How can you achieve great things without risk?" Xu You said: "Duke Cao takes risks alone, and if the prince is defeated, he will rob the prince, whether he can succeed or not is all up to Duke Cao, not me." ”
What Xu You said made Cao Shuo feel uncomfortable when he heard it.
He was so bold that he dared to put Cao Cao in danger.
Such a person stays by his side, which is not the same as Tian Feng's kind of outspoken person, sooner or later he will be a scourge.
From this moment, Cao Shuo had already moved his murderous intent towards Xu You.
But he still smiled slightly, and said to Xu You: "Just wait for the news to be in the tent, you don't have to wait outside." In case Yuan Jun kills him and injures Zi Yuangong, how can you see your father win a big victory? ”
"That's what Childe said." Xu You said to Cao Shuo: "In order for me to see Cao Gong win a complete victory, I had to retreat a little far away from the battle. I'll leave it to Childe here! ”
After speaking, he arched his hand to Cao Shuo.
Cao Shuo smiled at the corner of his mouth, and gave Xu You a salute back.
Seeing Xu You walk away, Cai Ji and Wei Tu's faces were even more ugly than the first time they saw him.
"Childe, I'm going to kill this fight!" Cai Ji said: "He actually dares to talk to Gongzi in this tone, as if he is the master and Gongzi is just a staff!" ”
"What nonsense?" Cao Shuo said: "Father is using him when he is using him, let him go crazy first, and sooner or later someone will clean him up." ”
"But this breath ......" Cai Ji sighed and said, "I really can't swallow it!" ”
"How can he make me angry!" Cao Shuo grinned and patted Cai Ji and Wei Tu on the shoulders respectively: "It's you two, don't be angry with yourself." ”
