Chapter 160: Cao Chong
Cao Cao asked Xun Yu to transfer troops to defend Qingzhou, and Xun Yu also sent spies to approach Jizhou City, wanting to find out Yuan Shao's movements in Jizhou, it is impossible to wait for death!
Soon Xun Yu got a reply from the spy, and after Xun Yu learned about it, he immediately came to Cao Cao's side and reported back to Cao Cao.
Xun Yu said to Cao Cao: "Prime Minister, the spies have come to report, there are two things"
Cao Cao held the approval document in his hand and said: "Speak"
Xun Yu replied: "The spies reported that there is a situation of training in Jizhou City, although you can't enter the city to see, but you can hear the shouts of the training of soldiers in the city from outside the city."
When Cao Cao heard this, he turned to look at Xun Yu and said, "Judging from the voice, how many people there are?"
Xun Yu said: "The first batch in the south of the city and the first batch in the north of the city are not less than 100,000 each, a total of about 200,000."
After hearing this, Cao Cao put the approval document still on the ground and said angrily: "At this time, Yuan Benchu can still have so many soldiers and horses, he wants to fight to the death."
Cao Cao asked again: "Say the second thing"
Xun Yu replied: "I heard that Yuan Shao's advisers went to Xuzhou and Jingchu, I think they probably went to ask for help, which also confirms what the prime minister expected, the fish under the sleep is invisible, and it is terrible."
Cao Cao smiled after hearing this and said: "Xuzhou can't make any big noise, because there is Jing Chu's Li Zhe, he still knows in his heart now that it is not the time to attack us, and Li Zhe has a grudge against Xuzhou at the moment and wants to retaliate, so we can rest assured that Jing Chu is helping us this time, of course, helping us He will also have a small calculation in his heart, but we don't know what they want?" ”
Cao Cao pretended to be very confident and said it to Xun Yu, Xun Yu listened to a little reason, so he didn't speak, and then except for Cao Cao's Prime Minister's Mansion.
Cao Cao went to the study alone, and in the study, Cao Cao cried alone, haha, really cried, why? Because he himself feels that he doesn't have a powerful advisor to assist, he is really too difficult, the tears at this moment are missing Guo Jia Guo Fengxiao, and the plans that Fengxiao gave Cao Cao back then are all tricks, to the point, without Guo Jia, there would be no current Cao Cao! It's a pity that God is jealous of talents, Guo Jia died early, and left Cao Cao, after Guo Jia's death, Cao Cao didn't have the self-confidence he had when he fought the war, but others couldn't see it, but Cao Cao himself had some worries when he made a decision, and he didn't know how to be thoughtful, although Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, and Jia Yu were also considered strategists, and Feng Xiao was really different from heaven and earth!
After a while, Cheng Yu entered the Prime Minister's Mansion and said: "Prime Minister, Jingchu Li Zhe has a daughter, born to Sun Shangxiang, named Qiuxiang."
After hearing this, Cao Cao said: "Although this Jing Chu Li Zhe is our great enemy, but the two of us except for the princes, if it is the people, we should be regarded as confidants, and send it to Jing Chu for me, it doesn't need to be too valuable, let him understand my Cao Mengde's intentions, bless it."
After Cheng Yu agreed, this Cao Cao thought that it was time for him to go and see his child, Cao Cao shouted: "Come on"
The guards entered the house, and Cao Cao said: "Tomorrow there will be a banquet, in the Prime Minister's Mansion, let a dozen of my sons come, I want to have a meal with them"
The next day, there were a lot of tables on the hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Cao Cao sat on the throne alone, and there were many people below, some big and some small, and the youngest was just a few years old.
Sitting in the first place is: Cao Pi, Queen Bian
The second place is: Cao Zhang, Queen Bian, nicknamed Huang Xu'er, is a brave general, and once broke the Daijun Karasuma
The third is: Cao Zhi, born in Queen Bian, is good at literature, and once wrote "Luo Shen Fu". Although he was favored by Cao Cao, he eventually failed to compete with his brother Cao Pi for the throne and has been doing nothing politically since.
Below are Cao Shuo, Cao Chong, Cao Ju, Cao Yu, Cao Lin, Cao Gon, Cao Xuan, Cao Jun, Cao Ju, Cao Gan, Cao Shang, Cao Biao, Cao Qin, Cao Cheng, Cao Quan, Cao Wei, and Cao Mao.
Cao Cao said: "Pi'er, how have you seen this Spring and Autumn Period, is there anything you don't understand?" ”
Cao Pi said: "Father, children are taught, and if they don't understand something, they will inevitably ask their father."
Cao Cao said with a smile: "Pi'er, you are just a little stupid, you can't die reading books, you have to use them flexibly, learn from your fourth brother Zhi'er, see how other people's books read, and learn from Zhi'er's poems and songs."
Cao Pi said: "The child is dull, and he can't be compared with the fourth brother, the fourth brother is very intelligent, and he has a natural understanding in literature, my brother is ashamed of himself."
Cao Zhi said: "Second brother, you only know modesty, my poetry and songs are just entertainment, not food, and my father hopes that we can have "strategizing and winning thousands of miles away", and I didn't even enter the door at this point."
Cao Zhang said: "Look at you, say something I don't understand all day long, what is the decisive victory thousands of miles away, I only know that if you don't hit him, he doesn't know the truth of pain, what can change the battle situation thousands of miles away at home, that's what the gods do."
Cao Cao laughed when he heard this, and said: "Look at your group of brothers, the smart ones don't see it, this pig's brain is all screaming in front of me."
After Cao Cao finished speaking, there was silence in the audience, Cao Cao was already annoyed when he looked at this scene, and said, today we are holding a banquet at home, don't be restricted, you can say whatever you want!
Cao Pi thought and said: "Father, is the current war situation very beneficial to us, otherwise we wouldn't have come, my father is busy with government affairs, and he cares about the world, so he must have peace so he has free time."
Cao Zhi said: "The second brother may not know yet, the battle situation in Jizhou is already iron-based, just waiting for them to come to winter, there is no food, and the soldiers will surrender without a fight, of course my father is in a good mood for such a good battle."
A younger son got up and said: "The fourth brother is wrong (Cao Zhi is the fourth), the fourth brother is not clear about the current situation, we are in crisis"
Cao Zhi turned his head and forgot to glance back, this person was his youngest son Cao Chong! Cao Chong has just turned ten years old.
After hearing this, Cao Cao felt a little excited in his heart, got up and said, "Chong'er will continue"
Cao Chong said: "At the moment, on the surface, we are besieging Jizhou, but we are very passive, why are we besieging the city? Of course, the siege casualties were too great, or it was impossible to break through the city, so the siege tactics were chosen. And when the next prince is eyeing us, Xuzhou Liu Bei has become a big trouble, Karasuma also sneaked up on our border pass, Yongliang has been waiting to see our emptiness and anticipate a sneak attack, although Jing Chu in the south will not send troops for the time being, but they also want to watch our liveliness, so as to take advantage of the fisherman, these problems have not been solved, how can my father be in a good mood"
Although Cao Cao knew that his youngest son Cao Chong was smart, he never thought that he would be so smart, and even these questions, Xun Yu didn't think about it, but Cao Chong thought of it. It really surprised and delighted Cao Cao.
At this moment, I was thinking in my heart, is the youngest son Cao Chong reincarnated by Guo Jia to help me Cao Cao complete his great cause?
