"I didn't expect that in just half a month, such a drastic change had taken place in the Mo family's court, which was really unpredictable. Zhong Fuzi has actually become a new giant......? This is also reasonable, Liu De, what you expected before has come true, but you never thought that the time would be advanced by nearly twenty years......"

Thousands of miles away in Hongguan, Cao Meng read the letter sent by Xiahou again, and he was also embarrassed by the changes in the Mo family's court.

Sitting across from him, several leading generals were roasting sweet potatoes on the bonfire, the firewood crackling, and the sweet potatoes exuded an attractive aroma.

Guan Changyu took the military report handed over by Cao Meng, but he didn't plan to read it a second time, but said a little excitedly: "In this case, should we send troops on a large scale, and take advantage of the new tycoon of the Mo family court to ascend the throne and the situation in the court is turbulent, and directly catch him off guard? ”

"Second brother's words are good, that's exactly what he should say!" As soon as Guan Changyu's voice fell, Zhang Yi had already responded in a rough voice.

Zhang Yi is a straight gut, and when he thinks of what to say on weekdays, he suddenly got up from the chair and said bluntly: "Lord, according to me, it was only a small defeat before, why should you be obsessed with it, making us all shrink in this flood and be depressed." At this time, it is time to go out and fight, this time we will not divide the troops, directly join the troops, and fight all the way to the bottom of Jicheng, and be ashamed!"

Guan Changyu originally planned to say that he was planning some strategies, but when he heard Zhang Yi's remarks, he couldn't help laughing: "The third brother is quite bold, but this is the ...... It's too simplistic, if you want the lord of the country to join forces, why don't you be the striker at that time?"

"Of course, my Lao Zhang has nothing to be afraid of, when the black cavalry attacked the camp at night, if it wasn't for the lord of the country who refused to let me lead people to charge, maybe I could have pulled off Sun Boling's head from the army!"

After being praised by Guan Changyu, Zhang Yi got a little carried away and patted his chest.

"The kingdom is not stopping you, maybe your head is now stuck in the tip of the black knight's spear. Guan Changyu was a little helpless about his third brother's temperament, "I said third brother, when can you change this habit of bragging?"

At this moment, Dian Wei, who was sitting on the side of the roasted sweet potato, also laughed out loud.

At this time, a voice that seemed to be a little discordant sounded: "Generals, in my opinion, you must not move troops at this time. ”

Led by this sentence, several people set their eyes in that direction.

In fact, they didn't need to look, just by listening to the voice, they knew that the person who said this was Cao Pei.

Now he is also one of the generals in the army, at the same level as Zhang Yi, but after all, he is the son of Cao Meng, so naturally people often look at him differently.

When Cao Meng discussed the military, he would mostly let him be present, and he also hoped that this son could learn about planning in the army, which could be regarded as a kind of tempering and training for him.

Guan Changyu looked at Cao Pei and frowned slightly: "What is the truth of Gongzi's words? At this time, it is the most turbulent time for the Mo family's dynasty, otherwise why would Sun Boling give up the original opportunity to take advantage of the victory and pursue and shrink the army instead? If he let go of this great opportunity, wouldn't it give the Mo family another chance to breathe, wouldn't it be more difficult to fight again then?"

Cao Pei did not answer in a hurry, but looked at Cao Meng, a little hesitant for a while.

Cao Meng snorted: "What do you see Lone doing? Although Lone said that you should talk less and listen more, she didn't say that you should be a puppet, since you have an opinion, just say it." ”

Hearing Cao Meng's response, Cao Peicai breathed a sigh of relief, and then bowed his hand to the end and said: "My father is here, and several generals are all famous generals on the battlefield, so I shouldn't talk too much about my juniors." ”

"I just heard the strategy of several generals, my son is worried that rashly sending troops will not be as powerful as expected, maybe it will cause a big disaster because of recklessness, this time I am forced to express my opinion, if there is anything wrong, please forgive my father and the generals. ”

Listening to Cao Pei's words, Liu De, who had been silent in the corner, showed a bit of praise in his eyes, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and he nodded.

Cao Meng looked at the only adult son playfully, raised his chin, and said, "Then you can tell me, where did the generals want to send troops, and what kind of disaster will it cause?"

"Yes. Cao Pei nodded and said: "There are three reasons why my son thinks, first, the turmoil in the court mentioned by several generals, I don't think so. ”

"What do you say?" asked Guan Changyu.

"Now although the Mo family court is the time when the old and the new are alternated, Master Zhong ascended the throne according to the edict of the giant, and what he did was justified, and the ministers of the Mo family will naturally obey the edict of the giant and perform their duties, even if some people are not satisfied, at most they will discuss a few words in private, and they will never dare to be the name of the traitor. ”

"Secondly, Master Zhong has been in power for many years, and there are many supporters and disciples in the Mo family, and he is not a young king, so there will be no suspicion of the lord and the country, and the matter of strong ministers seizing power, so why talk about the turmoil in the court?"

Guan Changyu nodded: "What else?"

"There is also Sun Boling, this person's military and political talent is not inferior to Wang Xuanwei, and he has never had a faction in the court, no matter who ascends the throne, he will not point the finger at his commanding power. ”

"The Mo family army seems to have declined over the years, but it is still the number one army in the world, and the spies have reported more than once that the main army of the Mo family alone has at least 400,000, as long as these 400,000 are still under the command of Sun Boling, it is by no means an easy enemy. ”

Hearing this, Cao Meng was also quite satisfied, and smiled: "What about the third." ”

"Third, our army has been exhausted everywhere so far, although now in Hongguan, grain and grass have been in short supply for days, many battalions can only drink two meals of vegetable porridge a day, cakes can only be divided according to the head, there is no more piece, the reason why no one has made trouble so far, all depends on my father and several generals have been accumulating great prestige, but once they go to the battlefield and can't eat enough, morale will definitely decline, and no matter how much the generals say, it will not work. ”

After saying these three points, Cao Pei looked around, and finally fell on Cao Meng, and said respectfully: "My son thinks that if we really follow the generals and fight another big battle, I am afraid that before we can defeat the Mo family's army, we will collapse first." ”

After he finished speaking, he immediately stepped back to his position, lowered his head and waited for Cao Meng to comment.

Cao Meng chuckled lightly and said to Guan Changyu: "Did you all hear it? What do you think?"

At this time, Zhang Yi's expression was no longer as fanatical as before, with a tiger face, but he nodded involuntarily, Dian Wei divided the baked sweet potatoes, and said with a somewhat honest smile: "I don't understand the situation or anything, but I think Gongzi is reasonable." ”

"It's not just reasonable, it's just insightful. Guan Changyu exchanged a look with Liu De, and laughed, "It's true that as Gongzi said, this battle can't be fought." ”

Cao Meng looked at Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi was stunned, convinced that Cao Meng's eyes were on him, and hurriedly waved his hand to make an innocent statement, and said: "Don't look at me, you all know, my old Zhang is a rough person, and I have nothing to say when I go into battle, but I have a headache when I hear those things in the Mo family's court, it is better to drink and be happy, in short, when the lord of the country wants to fight one day, I will inform him, and I will take the lead with a spear when I drop the wine bowl." ”

"You, you deserve to be scolded by Liu De every day, you are not a rough person, you are just a dumbfounder. Cao Meng couldn't help laughing, and looked at Liu De again, "Liu De, what do you think?"

From the beginning to the present, Liu De seems to have never interjected, just sat calmly, and his eyes seemed to be looking at a very distant place.

Hearing Cao Meng's question, he smiled slightly: "What the prince said is indeed reasonable, but I see that the lord of the country actually has the answer in his heart, so why bother asking?"

"You're the most cunning. Cao Meng sighed helplessly, then looked at Cao Pei, his eyes showed rare appreciation, and said in a deep voice: "It seems that you have grown a little in the army these days, go down first, I still have something to say with a few generals." ”

Originally, Cao Pei was still a little excited when he heard the sentence "some growth", but unfortunately he heard the sentence "go down", and finally gave birth to a sense of loss, but he gritted his teeth, stabilized his emotions, buried all the loss into the bowed salute, and said: "Yes, my son retired first......"
