Cao Zhen was born into a noble family, and his father was killed when he was recruiting soldiers for Cao Cao. Cao Cao took pity on him for losing his father at a young age, so he took the young Cao Zhen to his house to raise him personally. Cao Zhen also received Cao Cao's words and deeds and benefited a lot. This juvenile experience played a very important role in Cao Zhen's later development.

Since the death of Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao, the Black Panther Battalion has been in a state of internal chaos and disorder. Cao Cao actually knew this point. However, it was because Cao Cao raised troops to the south shortly after Guo Jia's death, and there were many things about government and military affairs, so he really lacked skills, so he neglected the management of the Black Panther Battalion for a while.

Cao Cao originally thought that Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Jia Xu and others were not inferior to Guo Jia in terms of wisdom and talent. The Black Panther Battalion should not have any major problems in their hands. However, facts have proved that although they are all talents, they are also classified into categories, and they specialize in the industry. Yao Ming plays basketball very strongly, but you let him play in the World Cup, isn't this a very brain-dead behavior?

This is how Cao Cao handled the issue of the Black Panther Battalion. After many crushing defeats, Cao Cao finally began to recognize the importance of espionage in his military operations. After a detailed investigation of his subordinates, Cao Cao finally decided to boldly use Cao Zhen, the representative of the Shaozhuang faction in Cao's army, to replace his former humerus ministers Cheng Yu and Jia Xu to take charge of the Black Panther Battalion.

When they first got the news, even Liu Bei and Zhou Yu didn't care too much about this little-known Cao Zhen. But it turns out that these two guys really underestimated Cao Zhen. After Cao Zhen accepted the Black Panther Battalion, he realized the reorganization of the Black Panther Battalion in a very short period of time. It not only improved the internal management system, but also restored the vitality of the Black Panther Battalion in the shortest possible time.

Judging from the information on this letter, after Cao Zhen took over, the Black Panther Battalion organized dozens of assassinations and sabotage activities against the Sun-Liu coalition army within ten days. It is said that a number of leading generals and officers on the Eastern Wu side were killed, and Liu Bei's Lushan camp of Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei was also attacked by Cao's army at night a few days ago, and the losses were very large.

Young Master Zhuge took the letter, thought for a while and said, "Uncle Liu, the Black Panther Battalion, founded by Cao Cao's subordinate Guo Jia, the No. 1 ghost talent, played a pivotal role in Cao Cao's pacification of the north. However, with Guo Jia's death, the Black Panther Battalion has no leader and has been in a relatively chaotic state. It is precisely because of this that my father and I were able to save the day many times in the process of going to Jiangdong and escaped the poisonous hands of the Black Panther Battalion. In fact, Xun Yu, Xun You, and Jia Xu are all very amazing strategists. However, their ability to use and manage spy agencies is far from being comparable to that of the deceased Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao. Although the Black Panther Battalion is a sharp sword, Xun Yu and the others are not good swordsmen. So, before that, the Black Panther battalion did not play to their true strength. This makes us almost ignore their presence. ”

Liu Bei nodded: "Yes, I have always wondered before, what was the lackluster series of activities carried out in the entire southern expedition in the Black Panther Battalion back then?" The cause turns out to be here! ”

"Yes!" Young Master Zhuge also nodded, "But what I didn't expect was that this young Cao Zhen would actually be a spy master!" Judging from the series of activities he has had since he took over the Black Panther Battalion, this guy seems to have a few brushes, at least in terms of espionage! ”

"Yes! At first, the old man didn't look at this hairless guy on his mouth! But I didn't expect to suffer a big loss in his hands! The sage said, "The afterlife is terrible!" Don't lie to me! Liu Bei remembered the defeat of Lushan and was heartbroken.

"Lord, victory or defeat is just a common thing in soldiers! Lu Shan was defeated, no need to mind! Father Zhuge stepped forward to comfort.

"Uncle Liu, what's the use of being sad? You are the one who wants to achieve the hegemony of the emperor! Who has not experienced ups and downs since ancient times? "Young Master Zhuge couldn't see Liu Bei crying the most. I'm a lot older, and I don't know why the tear glands are so developed, and tears are coming.

"Huh?" Liu Bei was taken aback, and his face was a little ugly.

What's the situation? Liu Bei's expression became very strange, after listening to Young Master Zhuge 's words.

"What nonsense do children talk about? The ambition of the lord is to assist the Son of Heaven and revive the Han Dynasty! How can you have such a rebellious idea? Father Zhuge hurriedly reprimanded.

"Huh?" This time, it was Young Master Zhuge who was dumbfounded. What's the situation? Didn't Liu Bei fight the world to become the emperor himself? In fact, here, Young Master Zhuge suffered the loss of knowing too much about the knowledge of later generations. In fact, in the last years of the Han Dynasty, although the warlords of the four sides were fighting, there was not a single guy who did not want to eventually become an emperor and dominate the four seas. But this is something that can only be understood but not spoken. On the bright side, no guy would be stupid enough to stand up and say that he wanted to be the emperor. Of course, there are also such fools, such as Yuan Shu. This product is purely stupid and naïve, and there is no way to find death! None of the really smart people are not very loyal and patriotic on the outside, and take it as their responsibility to revive the Han dynasty and appease the common people. All of them dressed themselves up as loyal ministers of the Han family. This is political wisdom!

Father Zhuge made a look, and Young Master Zhuge understood what was going on. Hurry up and put on an innocent look! The expression is clearly saying, I'm stupid, I'm naïve!

Liu Bei is actually very useful in his heart, after all, this kind of thing has always been held in his heart. Today, someone spoke for himself and regarded himself as a person who could create an imperial business, and his vanity was greatly satisfied!

Liu Bei waved his hand indifferently, and said to Zhuge Father with a smile: "Military advisor, why do you have to be so serious? Zhan'er is still young, what does he know? ”

Seeing Liu Bei say this, Zhuge Father hurriedly climbed up the pole and said with a smile: "Hehe, the lord is still magnanimous, my son!" I'm all spoiled! ”

Young Master Zhuge looked at these two shameless guys, with a look of disdain, and scolded in his heart: "Hypocrisy!" ”

Liu Bei put away his tears and continued the topic he just had, this is the right thing! He asked with a smile: "Zhan'er, in fact, your father and I have been discussing this matter just now!" What do you think about this Cao Zhen? "Liu Bei, this guy seems to be expecting more and more from Young Master Zhuge .

Young Master Zhuge thought for a moment and replied, "Actually, it's very simple! Give back to others in their own way! Peers are natural mortal enemies! ”

"What do you mean......" Liu Bei seemed to understand a little.

"Peers are enemies! If we want to defeat the Black Panther Battalion, we must use spies to suppress spies! ”

"But where are we going to recruit so many mature spies? Besides, there is not enough money! Father Zhuge shook his head. At present, the regular army is not well funded, where is the money to support the non-staff organizations that have been always?

"Daddy, you can choose from the existing army!" Young Master Zhuge said.
