The joy in Cao Cao's heart was no less than that of others, and even more so, because he was a monarch, and he was really unwilling to starve to death in the sea so aggrieved.

But it is precisely because he is a monarch that no matter how much joy he is, he cannot show it on his face, but shows a calm and waveless attitude, as if everything is expected and under control.

At this moment, he is still the invincible Emperor Wu of Wei.

In comparison, the honest Xu Chu had a completely different reaction, and the smile from the heart was richer than the first time he entered the cave room in person.

"Lord, the last general will take a team of people to find out the news, and get some food by the way."

"There's no hurry."

Cao Cao waved his hand and lowered his head in deep thought.

Xu Chu was confused and looked at everyone.

Chen Gong smiled: "Has the general ever read the art of war?" ”

"I've read it!"

"There is a saying in the Art of War, know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles!"

At this moment, Chen Gongtai also restored the lupine scarf, talking and laughing.

He fully agreed with the lord's decision, and although he found the land, he could not rush to log in, because they did not know anything about the land.

As. Who is the ruler, how many troops there are, how well they are equipped, whether the city is strong.

If you rashly log in with all your weapons, you will inevitably be startled.

Cheng Yu also echoed: "Yes, we don't have much food and grass, if we don't move, once we send troops, we must take a foothold in the shortest possible time." ”

Xu Chu was a little unconvinced, and retorted: "The two military advisors, the last general is going to find out the news. ”

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Cao Cao shook his head and said: "You are too reckless, send you there, maybe you can fight with others if you encounter a little problem." ”

"Me"

Xu Chu wanted to speak, but found that there was nothing to say.

The eldest husband stands up to the sky, how can there be a reason why he can't fight back after being beaten?

Well, I really wasn't fit to go.

Cao Cao walked towards Cao Ren and patted his shoulder: "Zixiao, you are the most stable one among my Cao family's disciples, I don't worry!" ”

Cao Renzheng had the intention of taking the initiative to ask for help, and immediately arched his hand when he heard the words: "Rest assured, the lord will not disgrace his life." ”

"Promise me that no matter how great the humiliation is, you will never act rashly. It is not too late to know that the gentleman takes revenge! ”

"The last will understand."

"Go pick a dozen clever soldiers to go with you, and besides, no one is allowed to wear armor."

Cao Cao knew very well in his heart that once they logged in with the way of a regular army, it would inevitably arouse the vigilance of the enemy.

If the war is deadlocked, they will struggle because of food shortages and unfamiliarity with the terrain.

In short, this first battle is not a battle, and the battle will be won.

"Yes!"

Subsequently, Cao Ren went to select more than a dozen high-level martial arts and cool-headed soldiers to accompany him.

When the group set off, Cao Ang suddenly stood up: "Father, I'm going with my uncle." ”

It turned out that he had quietly shed his armor and changed into civilian clothes, apparently ready to go with him.

"No!"

Cao Cao shook his head, although he is still thriving in this life, only his eldest son Cao Ang and Cao Chong, who is at the age of a young child, can satisfy him in terms of ability.

Xu is out of debt in his previous life, Cao Cao has always felt guilty about his eldest son, so that he values him more in this life.

Cao Ang had long expected his father's objection, so he said the words he had thought in advance, which was also in his heart.

"Father, if I have been living under your wing, how can I be on my own? Rest assured, Er is not an impulsive and reckless person, nor is he a weak scholar who can't lift a sword. ”

Cao Cao could see that he had made up his mind, but he still reminded: "We don't know anything about the enemy, and this trip may be risky. ”

"If you fall like this, if you don't deserve to be Cao Cao's son, what's the use of living?"

Cao Cao was silent for a long time.

"Well, since you've already thought about it, let's go."

"Father, wait a minute, I'll go and come back."

So, a group of more than a dozen people rushed to the land in a small boat under the watchful eyes of everyone and set foot on a foreign land.

Cao Cao's gaze was firmly fixed on the backs of the group, and he still did not withdraw his gaze until they disappeared from sight.

Chen Gong on the side saw his sorrow and muttered: "The lord doesn't need to worry, according to the records of the history books on the Wa Kingdom, this country is extremely backward, and the weapons used at this time are very simple, most of them are still stone tools. ”

"Therefore, I think that even if we only have tens of thousands of soldiers left to fight, as long as we handle it properly, it will not be difficult to conquer this country."

Cao Cao looked at Chen Gong and said with a smile: "Could it be that Gongtai deliberately understands this country?" ”

"It's just that I saw a few words on the way, and the Han Dynasty never took this small barbarian country into account, so there are few records."

"Looks like we're winning."

In fact, before leaving, Cao Cao also tried to understand the country, but found that there were only a few records of words, and it was difficult to really understand the country.

However, it is enough to know that they are lagging behind.

If it weren't for the fact that after a long voyage, the officers and men of the three armies were not accustomed to the soil and water, and they could not recover their combat strength for a while, Cao Cao would not even do a pre-war investigation, and could just kill them all the way.

A few hours later, in the evening, a soldier who had followed Cao Ang and Cao Ren to inquire about information returned in a small boat.

"Lord Qi, after the investigation of the eldest prince and me, there are only a few sparsely populated villages within a radius of ten miles, and the eldest prince and the general propose that the lord can land on the spot, and only need to send people to control these villages."

"Well, I see, step down!"

Cao Cao nodded, and then looked at Xu Chu, Xiahoudun and others.

"Order, the whole army went ashore in an orderly manner."

"Zhong Kang, Yuan Rang, the two of you will each lead the soldiers and horses of your headquarters as the vanguard, and anyone who finds the traces of the army will be taken down."

"Command!"

The generals are on the verge of amnesty, because if they don't go ashore again, they will vomit, and the bumps along the way will not be pleasant.

On the other side, Cao Ang and Cao Ren and his party finally arrived at the first city of the Japanese Kingdom after several hours of hurrying and hurrying.

It is said that it is a city, but in fact it is an earthen city, even if it is built simply, it is still very short, but I am afraid that the ladder can be erected over the head.

"This is the capital of the Japanese country?"

Cao Ang subconsciously felt that he had been deceived, so he looked at the Japanese man beside him.

A city of this level may not even be comparable to a county town in Dahan, and the rudimentary leather armor and stone spear heads of the soldiers at the gate make him unbelievable.

He didn't want to underestimate the enemy, but he had to admit that this time the enemy was the weakest ever.

“%%”

The man muttered something to explain, but Cao Ang couldn't understand the language, and he couldn't hear what the other party wanted to express, so he simply knocked him out with a palm.

"Into town!"

"Eldest prince, how should this person be handled?"

"Fix it yourself."
