Three Kingdoms: The rebellion was eavesdropped by Cao Cao

Chapter 82 Cao Su!Never stay by Cao Cao's side!

"Not only that, Liu Bei not only did not help Tao Qian fight against Cao, but also received an invitation from Cao Cao to act as a vanguard general and take the lead in negotiating with Tao Qian in Xuzhou!"

"Before Tao Qian died, he gave the Xuzhou Tiger Talisman to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei opened the city to welcome him after Cao Cao's army overwhelmed the territory!"

Sun Jian caused more and more anger, and in the end he couldn't help but slap him on the desk!

"Xi Zhicai, don't you say that Liu Bei is an army of benevolence and righteousness. As long as Cao Cao goes to attack Xuzhou, he will help him. Why did he defect so readily?"

Xi Zhicai put away the battle report, with an unbelievable look in his eyes!
"How is this possible? How could Liu Bei watch Cao Cao slaughter hundreds of thousands of people in Xuzhou? My lord, who gave this battle report? Why does he want to fabricate facts here?"

Sun Jian snorted coldly, "This is a battle report that would have been sent by the cronies in Xuzhou, how could it be fake?"

Xi Zhicai only felt a buzzing sound in his head, and suddenly he was at a loss and murmured:

"This...how could this be?"

"With Tao Qian here, the people of Xuzhou City can still barely get by with a little food each day. With his Cao Cao's character, if he occupied Xuzhou City, he would definitely not leave his chickens and dogs to save food. Could it be that Liu Bei Can't think of that?"

"On the surface, he wants to avenge his father's death, but in fact he wants Xuzhou!"

Sun Jian looked at Xi Zhicai who was a little confused, but calmed down and handed him another battle report.

Xi Zhicai was puzzled and took a look, then frowned again and asked:

"My lord, this sweet potato... what is it?"

In this battle report, the most mentioned agricultural product is a sweet potato, even he has never heard of it.

Sun Jian said lightly, "It's a new type of farming product! It is said that the yield per mu is thirty stone!"

"what?!"

This time, Xi Zhi was completely shocked!
"Thirty stone?! It's several times higher than the yield per mu of wheat?! How is this possible?"

Surprised, he seemed to have thought of something, and asked in shock:
"My lord! You mean... Cao Cao brought this food to disaster relief in Xuzhou?"

Sun Jian turned back to the case desk and said with a little sullen anger:

"It's not Cao Cao! It's Cao Su!"

"Cao Su?" Xi Zhicai was stunned.

This is not the first time he has heard Cao Su's name.

Sun Jian shook his head angrily and said:

"Thousands of calculations have never occurred to Cao Su to cultivate such a high-yield grain in the dark, and this time, he took out a full 20 shi for Cao Cao's disaster relief in Xuzhou!"

"Two... 20 stone?"

Xi Zhicai was not shocked this time, but went numb...

In this troubled world, if one person puts out 20 shi of grain for disaster relief, the most important thing is that the 20 shi of grain is a new variety.

good guy!Is this Nima possessed by Shennong?

But this also made him thoroughly understand why Liu Bei ignored Tao Qian and turned to Cao Cao. It turned out that Cao Su was making trouble!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help asking:

"My lord, what about... Lv Bu? Didn't he attack Cao Cao's rear camp in Yanzhou?"

Hearing this, Sun Jian sneered,
"It's not because we told him that Liu Bei will help Tao Qian fight against Cao Cao!"

"After receiving the letter, Lu Bu did not go to attack Yanzhou, but rushed to find Liu Bei before Cao Cao went to Xuzhou, and wanted to fight against Cao with her, but learned that Liu Bei had already joined Cao Cao, and now he is forced to attack Xiaopei is gone!"

Xi Zhicai:  …

There are only two words in his mind now!

Outrageous!

More than a month ago, he believed that this strategy was perfect, whether it was for Lu Bu, or for Liu Bei, or for themselves, there were only advantages and no disadvantages, and they would definitely develop according to his expectations!

But I didn't expect it to turn out like this now, which can only explain one problem...

Cao Su's strategy is far ahead of him!
After a while, Xi Zhi felt cold on the soles of her feet, her complexion became bloodless, and she couldn't calm down for a long time!

At this time, Sun Jian rubbed his aching forehead, stretched out his hand and gently stroked the jade seal on the edge of the desk, with a glint of ambition in his eyes, and asked:
"What should I do now? Cao Cao's victory in Xuzhou is like a tiger with wings. Although it does not pose any threat to us now, it will definitely become our enemy in the future!"

Having said that, he held the jade seal tightly in his hand, for fear of losing it, and murmured:
"At the beginning of the Eighteenth Route Alliance, I thought that the two brothers Cao Cao and Cao Su were extraordinary. Now, when I look at it, it really is, alas!"

When Xi Zhicai heard Sun Jian's sigh, he couldn't let go, as if the bottle of five flavors had been knocked over.

A lord who worries about future development in front of a counselor is a counselor's incompetence!
After seeing Xi Zhicai, he took a deep breath and said:
"My lord, you don't have to worry so much. Cao Cao's capture of Xuzhou is not a bad thing for us, and... this situation is not impossible to break!"

Sun Jian slowly raised his head, stared at him and asked:
"Oh? Is it? Let's hear it?"

"Master, can we get the fetal sprouts of sweet potatoes?"

Xi Zhicai asked.

Sun Jian knew what he meant, shook his head and said, "There is no way, the spies report back, even if Liu Bei went to pick up the sweet potatoes, he could only pick up the cooked ones. Do you think Cao Cao would easily let people get the sweet potato sprouts?"

Xi Zhicai nodded silently, but he still smiled and said, "My lord, even if there is no sweet potato, there is nothing to be afraid of!"

"Whether it is Xuzhou or Yanzhou, it is mostly barren and wilderness, and there is very little land that can grow agricultural products. Jingzhou and Jiangdong are both places that are rich in agricultural products. Even if sweet potatoes produce [-] stone per mu, our grain production The speed will never be below them!"

Hearing that, Sun Jian made a lot of sense. He nodded thoughtfully and said, "That's true, but now Cao Cao has food like sweet potatoes in his hands, and the speed of development cannot be underestimated!"

Xi Zhicai cupped his hands and said, "Even if Cao Cao captures Xuzhou, it doesn't mean that he is on the side. Yuan Shao is in the north, Yuan Shu in the south, Xiao Peixian and Lü Bu, and Guo Si and Li Jue in the west. Embarrassed and dangerous!"

After he finished speaking, Sun Jian's face became a little calmer. Before he could ask a question, he saw Xi Zhicai's eyes flashing with a trace of cruelty, and said respectfully:
"Besides... Cao Cao and Liu Bei are not the same people. If you want to make them conflict, it's like trying to find something, but... you need your consent, lord!"

Seeing how cautious he was, Sun Jian couldn't help but narrow his eyes, "You want to alienate them? What can you do?"

Xi Zhicai looked around, then stepped forward and whispered a few words in Sun Jian's ear, which immediately caused Sun Jian to frown and scold:
"You bastard! You can't think of such a dirty thing!"

Xi Zhicai was shocked, and immediately took three steps back and knelt in front of Sun Jian, hysterically admonishing:
"Master! If you want to achieve great things, you must know how to let it go! Cao Liu and Yuan Shu are no less threatening than Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. If they are allowed to develop, they will become major enemies in the future. Please think twice!"

Sun Jian looked at Xi Zhicai and vowed to remonstrate, the anger in his eyes slowly dissipated, he looked down at the jade seal in his pocket, and his eyes were full of struggle!

The camp fell silent in an instant, and only the breathing of the two of them could be heard!

Sun Jian's hand stroked and tapped on the jade seal, while Xi Zhicai was kneeling on the ground motionless!
After an unknown amount of time, Sun Jian took a deep breath and said:

"Just do as you said, pick [-] dead soldiers from our army and go to Xuzhou!"

"As ordered!"

Xi Zhicai was relieved, and immediately surrendered to the command with both hands!

Sun Jian continued:
"If it goes well, let them capture Cao Su for me too. This person... must not stay by Cao Cao's side!"
