It was very late at night, and Cao Cao was still planning the final battle.

Many soldiers had already dispersed, only Cao Cao and Guan Yu were left in the central camp.

"Tomorrow's decisive battle has three goals." Cao Cao talked eloquently, "First, take back Yanmen, second, defeat Xianbei's main force, and third, break out from Yanmen and go straight to the Xianbei royal court's stronghold!"

Guan Yu's eyes narrowed as he listened to Cao Cao's words.

He realized that the forbearance of many days is coming to an end, and the opportunity to fight is coming!
Cao Cao continued: "Yun Chang, do you believe me?"

Guan Yu stroked his long beard, "If you are Cao Cao, Guan will never believe you, but if you are the elder brother of His Highness the Crown Prince, and he is the commander personally appointed by His Highness the Crown Prince, you will go through fire and water, and you will die. A certain will never say a word!"

call…

Cao Cao was moved by Guan Yu's words.

He patted Guan Yu's shoulder in fear, "Yun Chang, Tan Shihuai is dead! This time, he is really dead!"

Well…

Before Guan Yu was surprised.

Cao Cao continued to explain, his words already had a hint of heart-to-heart: "When I was guarding Yanmen before, I couldn't retreat under the big victory, not because I was afraid of Xianbei, nor because I saw through their tricks to lure the enemy deep, but... "

Cao Cao took a step closer to Guan Yu and emphasized his tone, "It was the third younger brother who told me that Tan Shihuai would not survive September, that is to say, once September is over and Tan Shihuai dies, all the ministries of Xianbei will be in chaos! And this Time is the best time for our army to launch an offensive."

This…

After all, it was Guan Yu who had always been unhappy with his appearance. At this moment, he couldn't help but look startled, and looked at Cao Cao in great surprise.

"Is that... the reason why Mengde never sends troops?"

"That's right!" Cao Cao continued, "The third brother was worried, and sent a secret envoy, Cheng Yu, to make contact with Prince Xianbei in secret. When the valley was ambushed, He Lian and Cheng Yu made a plan to shoot Tan Shihuai in the valley and give his dead man to the Han army!"

hear here...

Guan Yu was even more surprised, his pupils were wide open, and he looked at Cao Cao in shock.

a long time…

Just now he opened his mouth and asked: "This is what Meng De said, Tan Shihuai is dead!"

"Yes!" Cao Cao narrowed his eyes, showing a sly side, "Tomorrow, the news of Helian's patricide will spread throughout the Xianbei tribes, and based on the evidence, the Xianbei tribes are bound to break out civil strife and kill each other ...And this time is the best time for our army to annihilate its main force!"

Phew... Guan Yu exhaled heavily.

He even needed to pat his chest to calm down his mood.

He then asked, "Then why did Meng De keep me here?"

"Yun Chang, I think, when Xianbei is in a melee, I will send you to fight Xianbei's main force!" Cao Cao's tone was extremely solemn.

Guan Yu paused, cupped his hands and said, "Guan can't wish for anything!"

Cao Cao patted Guan Yu on the shoulder again, "All my younger brothers, and all the generals under Ding Cishi's command, they are tied together. I, Cao Cao, don't think I can compare to you as Guan Yunchang. The third brother values ​​you, and I value you even more." You, this battle must be fought beautifully!"

"Guan will definitely go all out!"

"Third brother said that when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent Huo Qubing to attack the main force of Xianbei, he said that he was unrestrained and free-spirited, so Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty didn't send him any lieutenants, just let him run wild! Yun Chang, in my opinion, You are outstanding in martial arts, courageous, but also jealous of evil. Whether you are in command or smart, you are the best candidate. Emperor Wu did not send a lieutenant to the champion, and achieved his great achievements. Today... I am arrogant once, and I will also learn from Emperor Wu. I won’t appoint any lieutenants to you! Just make up your mind and act arbitrarily!”

Speaking of this, Cao Cao stared deeply at Guan Yu again. "One hundred thousand Qingzhou soldiers, you, Ding Yuan, and Xiahoudun each receive [-]. In addition, you should deploy first. If you are satisfied and easy, you can join the army. This battle is up to you!"

Speaking of here…

Cao Cao shouted: "Come here, get some wine!"

While talking, a soldier brought a jug with two bowls, and Cao Cao was about to pour wine into the bowls.

Unexpectedly, Guan Yu stopped him immediately...

"General Cao, don't rush to drink this wine!"

"Well…"

"Guan must immediately lead his troops to march north, and arrive at Yanmen tomorrow for deployment. When the barbarians are killing each other, Guan will be wiped out!"

Speaking of this, Guan Yu stuffed the wine jar back to Cao Cao. "General Cao, wait and see, tomorrow and Lian, if a barbarian leaves, Guan is not worthy of drinking this jar of wine!"

After all...

Guan Yu cupped his hands, turned around immediately, and walked away with dragon steps and tiger steps.

Cao Cao watched him go away.

After Guan Yu's back completely disappeared, Cheng Yu walked out slowly behind the curtain... He bowed to Cao Cao in admiration.

"General Cao played well!"

Ha ha…

Cao Cao stroked his beard and said with emotion: "This is the third time I have taken out this jar of wine. Yuan Rang didn't drink it, Ding Cishi, Lu Fengxian, Zhang Wenyuan didn't drink it, and Guan Yunchang didn't drink it either..."

"Haha..." Cheng Yu smiled and stroked his beard, "General Cao is well versed in the way of employing people. This time, the three generals attacked and joined the company. It is expected that Xianbei's main force will soon be wiped out! As expected, I am a big man." The flag will be planted all over Langjuxu Mountain again!"

"Ha ha ha ha…"

Hearing Cheng Yu's words, Cao Cao's refreshing voice rose again.

After the laughter stopped, he looked at Cheng Yu with a little more confidence in his tone.

"Mr. Cheng, do you know... what I think about now?"

"His Royal Highness has mentioned that General Cao has always followed Huo Qubing, the 'General Who Conquers the West', as an example, presumably to imitate his seal of honor!" Cheng Yu replied.

Cao Cao shook his head, "Mr. Cheng, maybe it was my life's pursuit and dream to become General Zhengxi like Huo Qubing, but now... I have been with my third brother for so long, and my mood has changed."

"How?" Cheng Yu asked back.

Cao Cao paused, then raised his head and looked towards the sky. He murmured: "The world is like chess, and the battlefield is like chess. You, me, Guan Yunchang, Ding Yuan, Lu Fengxian, Gongsun Zan, as well as Na Helian and Tanshihuai are here!" They are just pieces on this chessboard!"

hiss…

Hearing this, Cheng Yu raised his eyes, not to mention, he can really empathize.

And Cao Cao's words continued.

——"As a pawn, it doesn't matter whether you become General Zhengxi or become a champion..."

——"The most important thing is, you and my chess piece should know who is holding our chess piece?"
