Xudu, in the hall of Sikong Mansion.

Cao Cao sat on the main seat in the center, and his subordinates were arranged on both sides according to civil and military affairs.

At this time, Cao Cao was holding a copy of the military intelligence report he had just gotten in his hand, his expression was gloomy, and others could not see his joy and anger, so he could only secretly guess.

Cao Pi peeked at Cao Cao's expression, secretly happy in his heart.

He had received the military deployment from Shi Ah before, and knew that Cao Zhang's march was slow, and it was expected that Cao Zhang's first battle should be unfavorable, which would make Cao Cao's mood so low.

Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu beside him looked at Cao Cao's expression, looked at each other, and both had the same thoughts as Cao Pi, showing a smug smile.

Xun Yu and Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao's expression, and they were also secretly worried about whether Cao Zhang's situation was wrong, and they both showed worried expressions.

After a while, Cao Cao put down the battle report in his hand and let out a long sigh: "Alas! ”

His sigh intensified the speculation in everyone's hearts, and they all thought that Cao Zhang really had a problem.

"Sikong, why are you so troubled?" Xun Yu hesitated for a moment, and finally opened his mouth to ask Cao Cao.

Among the people present, he was perhaps the only one who asked such a question, which would not anger Cao Cao.

"This Ziwen has a problem for me as soon as it comes up......" Cao Cao replied softly.

"But the war situation is unfavorable, and you need to arrange someone to meet the rescue?" Xun Yu listened to Cao Cao's words and hurriedly asked.

Cao Cao shook his head slightly, then raised his head and laughed: "Who told you that the war situation is unfavorable?" Ziwen won the first battle, recovered Luoyang, and killed Li Dao's two nephews, breaking 10,000 enemies. In this first battle, there is such a result, how should I reward him, can I not be troubled?! ”

Recovering Luoyang?! Break 10,000 enemies?!

These two sentences hit Cao Pi's head like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, he never expected that Cao Zhang would defeat Li Dao, and Cao Cao was worried about how to reward him!

Cao Cao's words also caused everyone present to be shocked, and they all showed happy expressions and began to whisper in private.

Xun Yu and Guo Jia glanced at each other, and they also let out a sigh of relief, revealing a relaxed smile.

"Dare to ask Sikong, what tactic did Gongzi Ziwen use to defeat Li Dao and achieve such a big victory?" Cao Ren asked curiously.

As the leader of the Cao clan, Cao Ren asked himself if he led the troops, it would be difficult to achieve such a big victory, so he wanted to know how Cao Chang did it.

Cao Cao immediately confuses the opponent with how Cao Zhang set up a suspicious formation, and then arranges for Xu Huang to march quickly to launch a night attack, and then divides his troops to capture the two levels and beheads the process to tell everyone.

After listening to Cao Cao's narration, Cao Ren, Cao Hong and other clan generals were amazed.

Cao Pi and Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen around him looked at each other, very annoyed, they didn't expect that Cao Zhang would have such a tactic.

"Lord, Ziwen really has a plan, it seems that when he went on the expedition, we guessed that he only had a fifty percent chance of winning, which was underestimating him." Xun Yu said admiringly.

Guo Jia also nodded approvingly: "Ziwen Gongzi's use of soldiers is so strange, which proves that he has unique insight and wisdom, and he is well versed in the method of using soldiers." I believe that this victory is just the beginning, and there will be more brilliant victories in the future. ”

Cao Cao nodded slightly, stood up and looked into the distance.

In front of him, there seemed to be Cao Zhang's childhood state, the child who only knew how to practice martial arts and didn't know how to read and tactics, has now become a handsome talent who is both wise and brave, and makes good use of tricks, how can this make Cao Cao feel relieved and happy from the bottom of his heart.

"Then let's look forward to everything, Ziwen will continue to bring us news of victory later." Cao Cao faced everyone and unabashedly laughed happily.

Everyone congratulated Cao Cao in unison and celebrated the victory.

Although Cao Pi also bent down to congratulate everyone with him, the resentment and anger in his heart had reached its peak......

……

The study in Cao Pi's mansion.

"Waste, all rubbish! Xiahou Shang and Xiahou Ru, the two idiots, sent me a battle report from Cao Zhang's stagnation! Shi A must have passed on such a battle report to Li Dao, so he would neglect to take precautions and give Cao Zhang a chance to take advantage of! ”

"This damn Cao Zhang, why can he always be unexpected, hateful, really hateful!" Cao Pi lost his temper angrily.

Cao Zhen looked at Cao Pi who lost his temper, and had the heart to persuade him, but he didn't know what to say, which provoked Cao Pi's anger, so he could only look at Cao Xiu with the eyes of asking for help, hoping that he could come up with a solution.

Cao Xiu understood, and after pondering for a while, he had an idea, and stepped forward and said to Cao Pi: "Zihuan, don't be angry. Since Ziwen makes you so angry, I have a way to relieve your hatred. ”

Cao Pi's eyes immediately flashed with a fierce light, and he looked at Cao Xiu: "Wen Lie, what can you do, say it quickly." ”

"Didn't he make friends with the little girl named Guo Zhao who lived in Sima's house? Now that he is not in Xudu, why don't you take this opportunity to take her for yourself, isn't this out of the evil anger in your heart?! Cao Xiu proposed to Cao Pi.

Cao Pi shook his head helplessly: "That Guo Zhao only has Ziwen in his heart, and he is as cold to me as cold, the last time I went to her, she almost did it with me." Now she hides in the paper mill every day, where people from the school government are watching, I can't even get in, how can I complete the horizontal knife to win love!? ”

Cao Xiu looked at Cao Pi's embarrassed and annoyed appearance but smiled, and then continued to ask: "Ziwen, let me ask you, do you really like this Guo Zhao, or do you just want to find a woman to have fun?" ”

"If it's just for pleasure, why should I put so much thought on her? Since I saw Guo Zhao for the first time, I have been deeply moved by her, I naturally really like her, and I hope to grow old with her. It's a pity that the falling flowers are affectionate, and the flowing water is unintentional, she doesn't know my infatuation at all. Cao Pi expressed his heart to Cao Xiu, and then sighed a little sadly.

"If you really want to grow old with her, this matter will be easy to do." Cao Xiu smiled even more evilly.

"Oh, Wen Lie, don't tease me, what's the solution, say it quickly!" Cao Pi lost his patience and urged Cao Xiu.

Cao Zhen also helped Cao Pi urge Cao Xiu: "Yes, Wen Lie, you can't see how anxious Zihuan is, just tell him quickly." ”

"Since you really like her, why don't you try to propose marriage to her and marry her? The words of the matchmaker of her parents, even if she has no feelings for you now, she has really become a parent, and she can only be obedient. Cao Xiu told Cao Pi his idea.

"Propose?" Cao Pi's eyes lit up suddenly, "Yes, her parents are gone, and she is staying at Sima's house." If I can ask my father to send someone to Sima's house to propose marriage, Sima Fang, that old man, will definitely not dare not agree. ”

"Good idea, Wen Lie, you really have a good idea!" Cao Zhen also sincerely praised Cao Xiu's strategy.

Cao Pi thought about it, but suddenly frowned again, and shook his head slightly: "Although this plan is good, I'm afraid it will be difficult to implement." My father has always disliked me, and if I go and ask him to help me propose marriage, I am afraid that he will not only not be gracious, but will also provoke a bitter scolding. ”

Cao Xiu hurriedly said: "Of course you can't go directly to Sikong, you have to act in a roundabout way." ”

After speaking, he leaned into Cao Pi's ear and whispered a few words, Cao Pi listened to Cao Xiu's words, nodded slightly, and a smile appeared on his face......
