Chapter 586
After Xun Yu's introduction, the entire hall fell silent.

It wasn't that Lu Bu had no one under his command, but that Lu Bu himself was so dazzling that it completely covered up the radiance of the generals under his command.

As far as Lu Bu's current strength is concerned, it is far from being able to compete with Cao Cao, because the strength of the two sides is not at the same level at all.

Cao Cao was also aware of the gap between the enemy and himself, and it would not be wise to confront Lu Bu head-on now. He mused to Xiao Xu, and asked Ji Yu Xun Yu: "Then...how should we deal with it?"

"Avoid the sharp edge and retreat to advance." Xun Yu said slowly with a flash of wisdom in his eyes.

Yuan Shao chose to block Lu Bu in Baima and Liyang, a large part of which was because he wanted to use Cao Cao's team as a means to consume Lu Bu.

Cao Cao caressed his short beard lightly, making a decision with his deep, small eyes.

Lu Bu has the banner of the Son of Heaven, no matter what he does, he can be upright.In this way, those who stand opposite him will inevitably be labeled as rebels.

Although the princes from all over the world are unwilling to recognize the imperial court in Guanzhong, this is an indisputable fact.Sometimes Cao Cao also thought that it would be great if Liu Bian, the king of Hongnong, was still alive.

It's a pity that he died suddenly in the palace.

Cao Cao was quite curious about this confrontation, and asked Yu Xun's uncle and nephew: "Lv and Yuan are fighting, how will the two sides win or lose?"

Xun Yu shook his head slightly, and said, "It's hard to say."

As the saying goes, it is difficult for a strong dragon to crush a local snake.

Yuan Shao has been entrenched in Jizhou and has been in business for many years. He has strong soldiers and horses, and there are many advisers and generals under his command. Even if he faces Lu Bu, who is known for his bravery, he may not be defeated.

"However, it took a long time, and it must be Lu Bu's side who will suffer. In terms of supplies alone, there will be big problems." Xun Yu said with certainty, leaving aside the combat strength of both sides, Lu Bu's front line is too big. Long, a protracted war will be a big disadvantage.

"It's fine if we can make a quick decision, but if not, Lu Bu will very likely be stuck in the mud here in Jizhou."

"Not only that, if Lu Bu leads an army of [-] to march eastward, it will inevitably create a void in the rear. I wonder if my lord has any ideas about this?" Xun You, who took up the topic, also started talking.

"Youruo said..." Cao Cao was startled for a moment, and then his small eyes sparkled.

Xun You nodded, and his tone was so flat that he was talking about an inconspicuous matter: "Isn't my lord ambitious to help the Han Dynasty? Raiders, use the picture to pass the middle!"

Welcome the emperor to control the chaotic ministers!
This is the strategic plan given to Cao Cao by the uncle and nephew of the Xun family in the general direction.

"When the time comes, please let me be the vanguard!" Xiahoudun heard that he was going to attack Guanzhong, and Kuishi stepped forward, taking the lead in pleading for orders.

"I am also willing to go with General Xiahou!"

The Cao brothers, Li Dian, and Le Jin all went out to hold fists at the same time,

When Cao Cao saw this, he stroked his beard and laughed loudly: "It's rare for you to have such ambition, but this matter can't be rushed. Just now Wen Ruo said that it will not work until Yuan Shao and Lu Bu fight. According to my estimation, there must be no matter what." Go on for several months!"

"So, during this period of time, wait for your good training, and you must train me a strong team that can overcome Guanzhong!"

The generals in the hall looked at each other and responded loudly at the same time: "Take orders!"

At this time, a giant man as tall as an iron tower guarding the door entered the hall, and said to Cao Cao in a loud voice: "My lord, there is a person at the door who claims to be the envoy of Jinbei, and said that he has something important to report to the lord."

"Please come in."

Cao Cao used the word "please", which is enough to show that he attaches great importance to this person.

The Prime Minister of Jibei was Bao Xin, not only a good friend of Cao Cao, but also one of the princes who jointly attacked Dong Zhuo.

At that time Yuan Shao had great prestige, and all heroes in the world respected him.Only Bao Xin held Cao Cao's hand in private, his gaze was like a torch, and he said with conviction that Meng De has great ambitions, and he will surely lead the world's heroes in the future and bring order out of chaos.

Cao Cao just smiled at that time, saying that Bao Xin thought too highly of himself.

After obtaining Cao Cao's consent, Dian Wei soon led a group of young generals into the hall.

"Army Sima under the Prime Minister of Jibei——Yu Jin, pay homage to Mr. Cao!"

The young man in silver armor clasped his fists and bowed to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao looked Yu Jin up and down, and couldn't help asking: "Did Yuncheng send you here?"

Yu Jin nodded, he glanced at Xun Yu and the others in the hall, hesitant to speak.

Xun Yu and the others understood the meaning of this, and took the initiative to avoid suspicion: "My lord, then I will take my leave first."

Maybe Cao Cao would let Xun Yu and the others come back, and Yu Jin, who was his classmate, said: "Jun Sima said bluntly, they are all my confidantes, and Cao's status today is all because of their hard work, so there is no need to shy away from it." .”

These words were very grand, and there was also a majestic aura of a superior.

There was a flash of joy in the eyes of the uncle and nephew of the Xun family. The two galloping horses finally met Bole.On the general's side, his eyes turned red uncontrollably. Among them, Li Dianle entered the two of them and was the most moved.

Everyone knows that among the generals under Cao Cao's command, Xiahou and the Cao brothers are all brothers of Cao Cao's clan, and they are deeply trusted by the lord.Only the two of them were recruited by Cao Cao.

So the two subconsciously regarded themselves as outsiders.

But now Cao Cao's words are equivalent to giving a clear and definite answer, which made Li Dianle enter his heart, and suddenly gave birth to a heroic man who died for his confidant.

Since Cao Cao said it so directly, Yu Jin no longer evaded it, and said straight to the point: "A few months ago, moth thieves from Qingzhou invaded the border of Yanzhou and ravaged counties..."

Cao Cao knew about these things. Even in Dongjun where he lived, there were many moth thieves, but they were later expelled by his army.

"However, half a month ago, Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai who was stationed in Taishan County refused to listen to advice, relied on his martial arts, and insisted on leading the army to fight against him. In the end, he was killed by the moth thief general."

When talking about this, Yu Can't help but sigh a little, the dignified shepherd of a state and the clan of the Han Dynasty will end up in such a fate.

Knowing Liu Dai's death, everyone in the hall was dumbfounded, what is this?
Liu Dai, at best, is reckless, but at worst, he has no brains.Still imitating others to single out and challenge, don't you know how much you weigh, don't you know?

"Master Jibei sent me here to welcome you as the new Lord of Yanzhou." Yu Jin clasped his fists again, expressing the ultimate purpose of this trip.

Before Cao Cao agreed, all the advisers and generals under him were extremely excited.

"My lord, this is a gift from heaven to Yanzhou and you, you must take it!" Mao Jie's voice trembled a little. He was the first group of people who followed Cao Cao, and he watched Cao Cao develop step by step from nothing to today.

"Mengde, Dongjun is just a county, but Yanzhou is a whole state!" Seeing Cao Cao's delay in opening his mouth, Xia Houdun couldn't help but reminded him loudly. He was afraid that this clan brother would become confused at this time. Talk about benevolence and morality.

The difference between Yanzhou and Dongjun is not just a little bit.If he can secure Yanzhou, then Cao Cao is bound to become a great vassal in the world.

Of course, the most rare thing is that after Liu Dai's death, Bao Xin didn't have the slightest idea himself, but was the first to think of Cao Cao.

This move also happened to confirm what Bao Xin said back then.

Cao Cao wrote down this friendship in his heart. He has never been a moderate figure with the benevolence of a woman, and he will not pretend to say something like "short of morality" and "choose a wise man".

Cao Cao's life creed is, no matter how many difficulties and thorns lie ahead, as long as he dares to give a chance, I will dare to go up!
Yanzhou ruled eight counties, Chenliu County was in the hands of old friend Zhang Miao, Jibei Kingdom was in the hands of Bao Xin, plus the East County he occupied, and the prefectures and counties captured by the moth thieves were removed.The rest are only one or two counties, and it is not difficult to subdue or defeat them.

After finishing the calculation in his mind, Cao Cao laughed when he saw Xiahoudun and others all cast their gazes, impatiently waiting, and walked out of the hall without saying a word.

Outside, the golden sun is warm.

Reflected on Cao Cao's face, which has nothing to do with being handsome, it shines with a kind of charm unique to a mature monarch, calm and majestic.
