Three Kingdoms: From Yinlin to Great Wei Xiongzhu

Chapter 152 Don't be angry, anger will reduce your wisdom
patience.

In any case, the arrival of Lu Yu increased Cao Cao's patience. At least, he didn't have to worry about food for the time being.

But... the uncomfortable part is that patience is not enough to win Puyang City.

After all, Cao Cao was still flustered.

That night, in the big tent, Cao Cao was savoring Lu Yu's words carefully... No, to be precise, it was Lu Yu who quoted Xun Yu's words - the wind rises at the end of Qingping, and the waves form between the waves.

Qingping, Weilan, when will the so-called opportunity come?
Cao Cao raised his head and looked up at the starry sky through the door of the big tent, full of emotion.

"Big brother, big brother..." At this moment, Xia Houyuan rushed into the big tent, and hurriedly said to Cao Cao: "The people of the Tian family sneaked out of Puyang City. Just now, they brought a letter letter, inviting us to send troops immediately...they have already controlled the south gate of Puyang, and they will open the gate for us tonight."

At the end of the sentence, Xia Houyuan's tone became much more solemn. "This is a great opportunity to take down Puyang City in one go!"

call…

Tian's dedication to the city?

As the prefect of Dongjun who used to be close to Puyang, Cao Cao was no stranger to the Tian clan in Puyang.

The Tian family is the richest man in Puyang City, and they have always been friends with the brothers of the Xiahou family. In the past two years... Cao Cao settled in Yanzhou. The funding has never stopped.

It can be said that the Tian family in Puyang, Cao Cao and Xiahou's family are extremely trustworthy!
"Siege the city tonight? In such a hurry?" Cao Cao asked back...

"That's right." Xia Houyuan reminded: "The messenger is outside. He said it was urgent. Their Tian clan has already bought off the defenders at the south gate. If it wasn't for the urgent attack tonight, things will change later!"

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes...

If the news that the Tian clan dedicated the city is true, then to him, it is like nectar from heaven.

It is not an exaggeration to say that if Cao Ying's military rations are in short supply now, he will definitely imitate the overlord Xiang Yu without hesitation, break the boat, and gamble with his last stand.

But... Lu Yu brought a sufficient amount of food just now, which allowed Cao Cao to calm down and re-evaluate whether this matter...is worth the risk!
The abundance of food and grass turned him into that wise, calm, cautious, suspicious hero again.

"Miaocai, go and stabilize Tian's messenger first."

"Brother..." Xia Houyuan still wanted to persuade.

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao waved his hand and immediately ordered other soldiers. "Quickly pass on the military division of Xi and the military division of Xun to the big tent to discuss matters..."

"Here 1" The soldier is about to pass the order...

"Wait!" Cao Cao hurriedly shouted to stop, he suddenly thought of something, and quickly added something. "Call Lu Gongcao here too..."

When he mentioned the word "Lu Gongcao", he emphasized his tone.

Obviously... on this matter, he really wants to hear Yu'er's opinion, after all... just a few hours ago, Yu'er also mentioned that sentence - the wind rises at the end of Qingping, and the waves form at the end of the waves between.

Tian's surrender?Is this "The End of Qingping", or "Between Weilan"?

...

In less than half a cup of tea, Xun You and Xi Zhicai had already arrived in the large tent of the Chinese army.

Along the way, the soldiers had already told them the news of Tian's surrender.

Just after entering the account, Xi Zhicai said, "I've heard about it for a long time, that the Tian family has supported Cao Gong many times, and even has an inseparable relationship with Xiahou's family. Lu Bu is new to Puyang City. In such a short period of time, It is expected that it is impossible to establish close ties with the Tian clan, or even collude with each other, in my opinion, the Tian clan must sincerely offer the city! And for Minggong, this is a god-sent opportunity!"

Xi Zhicai confessed all the thoughts in his heart.

Along the way, he was thinking about this question, and even made countless deductions...

But no matter how he deduced it, he couldn't deduce it... The Tian clan would abandon Cao Ying and seek refuge with Lu Bu.

Hearing this, Cao Cao nodded slightly...

At first he was a little skeptical about this, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was an opportunity, a godsend indeed!

After all, based on the relationship between the Tian family and Xiahou's family, and the support the Tian family has given to Cao Ying for the past two years, they are trustworthy!

"Gongda, what do you think?"

Cao Cao turned to look at Xun You.

Xun You shook his head. "I can't say..."

It's not that he said it's not good, he just thinks it's weird, but it's hard to say where the weirdness is?After all...Xun You has also been in contact with the Tian clan. Although he is the richest man in Puyang, the head of the Tian clan is courteous, honest and honest, not like a person with two ends.

It's just... the timing of the presentation of the city and surrender is too sensitive.

"Gongda doesn't say it's bad, but he can't make up his mind, right? Haha..." Cao Cao smiled slightly. He had the same thoughts as Xun You...

I want to gamble this time, but I am worried that I will fall into the trap.

"Duke Ming!" Xi Zhicai spoke again, with a solemn tone. "Opportunities on the battlefield often only appear in the blink of an eye. If you want to seize the opportunity, you must take some risks... If you follow the steps, I'm afraid that Puyang City will be surrounded for another year or two... It may not be broken!"

Speaking of this, Zhicai's tone became dignified. "I hope Mr. Cao will make a quick decision and capture Puyang City in one go!"

Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia have similar personalities and strategic characteristics. They are good at catching fighters and making the quickest judgments. In addition, the two of them have the same hobby-gambling like life.

A gambler will not give up any chance to kill in a casino.

Seeing that Cao Cao was still hesitating, Xi Zhicai spoke again. "Duke Ming, don't miss this opportunity, the time will never come again!"

The voice didn't fall...

"That's right, Mr. Cao...the opportunity is indeed too late to come!"

A crisp voice came from the front of the big tent, and everyone turned their heads to look, but it wasn't Lu Yu who arrived late, who else could it be?

Well…

Hearing Lu Yu's voice of support, Xi Zhicai was overjoyed immediately.

"Haha, it seems that Lu Gongcao and I want to go together..."

This…

Cao Cao's eyes narrowed slightly. If Lu Yu said the same thing...then...

Cao Cao subconsciously felt that this matter had become more reliable.

Xun You narrowed his eyes. He felt that this matter was not so simple. After all, the opponent was Chen Gong. You must know that in Dahan, the title of talented man from Dongjun was comparable to that from Yingchuan. The best among talents...

Tian's dedication to the city, could this be a big chess game played by Chen Gongbu?
Thinking of this, Xun You wanted to ask a few words of reminder, but a voice came out first.

"Although it is also an opportunity that cannot be missed, the time will never come again, but I and Xi Junshi have completely different ideas."

ah... ah...

Xi Zhicai was a little confused, he felt that he had been slapped in the face, but the slap was very light, and he didn't feel anything...

"Lu Gongcao? What do you mean? Don't tell me...do you think Tian is pretending to surrender?"

"That's right!" Xi Zhicai just asked a question, and Lu Yu immediately replied..."Master Xi, think about it, is this act of Tian's dedicating the city this time to the old days when Lu Bu joined forces with Zhang Miao to seek Chenliu Commandery, and I defeated Lu Bu by "just plan"?" Was it exactly the same as that time?"

As soon as this statement comes out…

Cao Cao, Xi Zhicai, and Xun You all frowned.

They are all smart people, and they don't need too many words, even a slight hint is enough for them to realize immediately.

That time... Lv Bu joined forces with Zhang Miao to conspire against Chenliu County, and Lu Yu followed his plan and asked Cao Chun to lead his troops to set up an ambush in advance to defeat Lv Bu at the south gate of Chenliu County!

And this time, it was Cao Cao who united with the Tian clan!
If he, Lu Bu and Chen Gong, would use their tricks, wouldn't they still be able to set up an ambush, lead Cao's army into the city, close the gates and beat dogs, and catch turtles in the urn?

hiss... this...

Thinking about it this way, Chen Gong retaliated against him this time, using Lu Yu's old strategy... No wonder, Lu Yu saw through it at a glance!

Xi Zhicai's eyeballs rolled again and again, and he nodded slightly, as if... Lu Yu's reminder made him realize!
But... only for a moment, Xi Zhi shook his head, no, what's wrong!

How long has Lu Bu been in charge of Puyang City?How could it be possible to establish such a close relationship with the Tian family so quickly, and allow them to betray Cao Ying and feign surrender?It doesn't make sense at all.

"Lu Gongcao? Do you think... the Tian family will abandon Duke Cao and join Lv Bu'er?" Xi Zhicai simply asked all the questions in his heart.

"Yes!" Lu Yu said firmly. "The reason why the Tian clan has supported Cao Gong for two years, does the military master think it is friendship?"

This... can't be Xi Zhicai's answer, but Lu Yu has already answered for him. .

"No, it's benefits! The greater Cao Gong's strength and the more stable the territory, the smoother the business of their Tian clan will be. Therefore... it is profitable for the Tian clan to support Cao Gong, but if... Lu Bu promised to Their interests are greater? In troubled times, there are no eternal friends, some are nothing more than eternal interests!"

blurted out a few words...

Lu Yu has a very thorough understanding of the speculative behavior of businessmen in this troubled world.

For example... when Liu, Guan, and Zhang conscripted soldiers and bought horses in Zhuo County, why... businessmen Zhang Shiping and Su Shuangpidianpidian subsidized iron, money, and horses to help them forge double-strand swords, Qinglongyanyue swords, and Zhangba snakes spear?
Could it be "true love", no!Do not!Do not!This also belongs to the speculative behavior of businessmen.

Only when Liu, Guan, and Zhang expelled the Yellow Turban Army from within Zhuo County, could businessmen Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang restore the trade route and make profits from it.

The so-called funding is actually protection fees in disguise.

It's all troubled times, who is much cleaner than whom?
The Tian clan is to Cao Cao, in fact...it is equivalent to Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang to Liu, Guan, and Zhang. The only difference is that one investment was successful and the other failed.

Similarly, since it is an investment, they can also choose to invest in Lu Bu. If Lu Bu becomes bigger, the Tian family will naturally rise, and even become the richest man in Yanzhou.

There's nothing wrong with this...!

After all, this is the way things are in this world. In the dream, there are tears from a loving mother, and the king's flag changes on the top of the city. I will vote for who is the king!
Lu Yu summed up the thoughts in his heart into a few sentences, and briefly told Cao Cao, Xun You, and Xi Zhicai.

The core point of view is... these days, no one can be trusted!

"Mr. Cao, have you forgotten? Your former classmate and close friend, Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu who helped you settle in Yanzhou, could betray you? Let alone a little Tian family? Although Chen Gong is serious, But his mouth is amazing!"

"Besides, Tian's dedicating the city, don't dedicate it sooner or later, but choose the time when Mr. Cao's army is about to run out. This is Chen Gong's calculation. Mr. Cao is so anxious at this moment, he will definitely take the risk! He is determined Duke Cao."

call…

Cao Cao exhaled.

I have to say that Lu Yu succeeded in persuading him!
In fact, not only Cao Cao, but Xi Zhicai and Xun You are also very convinced at the moment...

Sure enough, Lu Yu was very good at trying to figure out people's hearts!

Thinking about it in this way, Chen Gong planned this feigned surrender, and Lu Bu joined forces with the Tian family. This is... just wanting Cao Cao's life!

Wanting to understand this level, Cao Cao frowned, as if there was a little more anger and hatred in his chest!
What he hates most now is the betrayal of someone he trusts!

call…

With a heavy gasp, Cao Cao's chest heaved up and down. After a few breaths, he said: "If this is the case, then this Tian clan deserves to die! The entire Tian clan deserves to die!"

A coldness flashed in Cao Cao's eyes,
"Cao Gong... calm down, calm down!" Lu Yu comforted: "Don't be angry, anger will reduce wisdom, and there is no need to resent the enemy, resentment will also make Cao Gong lose his judgment, it is better to be angry and resentful Use him for Duke Cao's use!"

This sentence... was blurted out by Lu Yu, as if it was a line from a certain TV series, I watched it too much, so I just opened my mouth!

But... it's quite timely.

heard...

Cao Cao's eyes froze all of a sudden, but Lu Yu's words were still echoing and circling in his ears!
Immediately afterwards, he thought more and further... From Chen Gong in Puyang City's "following tactics", he thought of Xia Yu'er's "following schemes" in Chenliu County, and also thought of the strategy of attacking the enemy and attacking the heart when he captured Pengcheng.

All of a sudden, Cao Cao seemed to understand.

"Haha...hahahaha..."

Cao Cao laughed out loud, danced, and was as happy as a child.

this time...

Xi Zhicai and Xun You didn't react for a while.

This is not breaking Puyang City, but... seeing through the enemy's tricks, it seems... there is no need to laugh like this, right?

Only Lu Yu, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up into a faint laugh, he thought, Lao Cao is indeed a smart man, he probably realized it!
Indeed, Cao Cao realized it, completely realized it.

Isn't there a plan to defeat the enemy hidden in Lu Yu's seemingly casual words?
——Instead of being angry and resentful, it's better to use it for me!Haha...hahahaha...

Cao Cao's laughter became louder and louder, more and more loud...

Xi Zhicai couldn't bear it any longer, and hurriedly asked, "Why is Mr. Cao laughing so loudly..."

"Hahaha..." Cao Cao raised his hand, first glanced at Lu Yu, and then said loudly: "I laugh at Lu Bu for being so stupid, and Chen Gong pretends to be smart. I laugh at Puyang City tonight, and it will soon have a different owner!"

what…

Xi Zhicai is still a little confused?

Didn't Lu Yu say it all, this is the enemy's false surrender!
If it is a false surrender, how can we counterattack Puyang City...well...well...wait...

Xi Zhicai suddenly thought of something...

That's right, I use the enemy's strategy for my use, and Chen Gong will follow the strategy, so why don't we use the strategy as well?
Tian's surrender is false, that's just right...you can use your tricks!
As usual, send a team of troops to the south gate, take the initiative to fall into Lu Bu's encirclement, and lure out an ambush to delay Lu Bu's army!
At the same time, mobilize the main force to attack the city from the east, west, and north gates at the same time. Cao Cao's forces have an absolute advantage, and Lu Bu's ambushes are all at the south gate, and the defenses of the other gates must be empty. Enough for Cao Jun to break through the city!

At that time... entering from the east, west and north gates, and annihilating Lu Bu in one fell swoop... Isn't this just a plan!

Of course, it's okay to say that it's catching a turtle in a urn, but this little turtle has changed from Cao Jun... to Lu Bu and Bingzhou Wolf Rider!

Wonderful... Wonderful!
Xi Zhicai was very excited that he could think of this plan, but... this excitement obviously didn't last long.

Because, in the big tent at the moment, not only Cao Cao is smiling, but Xun You and Lu Yu are also laughing. The space here... seems to be filled with a sea of ​​smiles.

But Xi Zhi discovered that he seemed to be the one who finally realized it!

Oops...You are so young, why are you so slow in your reactions?
at this time…

It seems that Cao Cao's devilish laughter was so loud and penetrating that it startled Xia Houyuan next door... He looked bewildered.

The members of the Tian clan who were chatting with him also looked confused.

Xia Houyuan smiled awkwardly, and ran to Cao Cao's big tent.

"Brother... why are you laughing so loudly?"

what…

Cao Cao was taken aback by Xia Houyuan's sudden voice, and he noticed it now, he seemed too happy, and laughed so loudly that he completely forgot about Tian's messenger!

But... Cao Cao reacted quickly.

"Miaocai, I'm really happy, quickly take me to meet the Tian clan, with the help of the Tian clan... tonight will surely defeat Puyang!"

"Under such good fortune, how can you not laugh? Hahaha, hahahaha..."

The devilish laughter sounded again, Cao Cao... even deliberately raised his laughter, if possible...

He was willing to let Lu Bu and Chen Gong in Puyang City hear this laughter.

Cao Cao is so happy today!
It's just... the meaning in this smile.

perhaps…

Tian's Messenger can reach the first floor;
Lu Bu can figure out to the second level;
Chen Gong can figure out to the third floor;
Hahahaha... He, Cao Cao, has already figured out the fifth floor, and further up, there is the 'Nine Heavens Cloud Layer' where Yu'er is!
