My husband Zhuge Kongming

After listening to Xun Yu's words, Cao Cao realized that this was the truth.

Their early communication with Cai Mao seemed to go smoothly, but they had not really reached the stage of cooperation and were just taking advantage of each other.

But if he gives Cai Mao a serious status now, the other party will take advantage of the opportunity to successfully control Jingzhou and further integrate the four southern states, posing a great threat to him.

He is not afraid of Cai Mao because he knows that Cai Mao's talents are limited.

However, Chu Anjun is a blood relative of Cai Mao and a woman. As long as Cai Mao trusts her enough, it is only a matter of time before he can gather his power.

As of now, they have no news that the two are not getting along.

"In that case, what should we do?" Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu.

Xun Yu smiled bitterly, "Because we still want to use Cai Mao as a chess piece in the future, we cannot send someone to take over the post of state pastor at this time, otherwise, Cai Mao will know that we have no intention of letting him take charge of Jingzhou."

Cao Cao was silent and thought for a while before saying, "What Wen Ruo means is, let's wait and see?"

"Yes." Xun Yu nodded, "There is no other way, and at this time, our army's talented squad needs to be repaired. In addition, in the past month or so, various aristocratic families have been making frequent moves, and it is time for the Lord to deal with it. "

"Where's Xun?" Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu.

"After all, the Xun family has been inherited for many years. The family has a big business and a large number of people. I just hope that when the master is reorganizing, he will not be implicated." Xun Yu lowered his head.

Cao Cao sighed, "Don't worry, Wen Ruo."

The northern aristocratic family actually supported him a lot in the early stage. Of course, this is the usual practice of the aristocratic family.

Place bets here and there to ensure the family legacy continues.

But no matter what, the benefits offered by that girl from the south were too great.Who in this thousand-year-old family doesn’t like money?

Even he, Cao Cao, also likes money.

He had previously sent his caravan to disguise himself and go to that trading house to seek cooperation. However, they found that his caravan was not from a southern company, and the amount of goods given was very small.

It's not like he hasn't looked for recommendations from southern aristocratic families, but those aristocratic families avoid his caravan, which means that the girl has extremely powerful means to control various aristocratic families.

On the road of business, he has encountered a lot of trouble.

When Xun Yu saw Cao Cao sighing, he sighed too, and said, "In the near future, Sun Quan can start doing business with the Xinghan Trading Company."

Cao Cao's eyes widened, "Seriously?"

"Yes, the news just came. Our people saw Zhou Yu leading a steamship to practice naval warfare." Xun Yu said in a deep voice.

Cao Cao chuckled, "What a good Zhou Lang, showing weakness at both ends, but it has allowed the remaining half of Wu County to gradually stabilize."

Xun Yu nodded, "There is only half a county left in Jiangdong, so there is nothing to worry about. But since they can cooperate with Xinghan Trading Company, we will naturally have channels."

Cao Cao analyzed the gains and losses, "Wen Ruo thinks they are willing?"

"Why not? Does Sun Quan have any choice?" Xun Yu replied calmly, "If my lord sends troops, Jiangdong will be destroyed. At this time, Jingzhou's internal affairs are undecided and there is no time for him to take care of it. If Sun Quan wants to keep his last foundation, then he must I have to bow my head.”

"Who should entrust this matter to?" Cao Cao asked the candidate, which meant that he agreed with Xun Yu's idea.

"Master Pi, you are not young anymore."

Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu, and then sighed, "Yes, it has been so many years since Ang'er left."

Now think about the remaining children of his, Cao Pi will grow up and be able to take charge.

"In that case, let Wen Ruo make the arrangements. We must get both the steamship and the armor."

"promise."

"If you can get the other party's iron-making method, that would be great."

"clear."

"As for Xuchang, let Zihe take charge, and pay attention to gathering intelligence. Even how many soldiers Liu Bei has, whether the soldiers are wearing iron armor, daily food consumption, and drinking water consumption." Thinking of Xuchang, Cao Cao still planned to let Cao Chun take the lead first.

Now he only has an approximate estimate of how many troops Liu Bei has.

But he didn't know what the composition of Liu Bei's soldiers and horses was, whether they all wore iron armor, and what their combat effectiveness was.

Liu Bei was the first obstacle to Cao Cao's march south.Moreover, in his opinion, there are not many people in the southern states who can surpass Liu Bei.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao frowned, "Is there any news in Jingzhou that Liu Bei will be promoted to temporarily lead the herdsman in Jingzhou?"

Xun Yu frowned slightly, "It's not stated clearly in the news. Yu will ask in detail."

"What will we do if Liu Bei temporarily takes over Jingzhou as herdsman?" Cao Cao's expression was solemn.

Because this possibility is quite high.

Liu Bei's surname is Liu, and he has a high enough official position and a good reputation. If Liu Bei really takes Jingzhou, it will be difficult for him to conquer the south.

Xiahou Dun said that Xinghan Trading Company had many skills that he did not have here.

And these skills will directly affect the combat effectiveness of the army.

Even if we don't count combat power, just in terms of military rations and logistics, he can't hold back the South.

But now, the four southern states are really connected into an iron plate by that girl. If they want to defeat them, they must be divided and broken.

"Divide and destroy." Xun Yu lowered his head.

These words were also left by Guo Jia before his death.

Cao Cao's eyes turned red, and he waved his hand, "Who will you choose to divide, and who will you choose to break? Let's have a good discussion."

Xun Yu nodded, and seeing Cao Cao's mood, he wisely stepped back.

You know, Guo Jia is not only Cao Cao's right-hand assistant, but also his best friend Xun Yu.

Although the situation in the south is currently internally unstable, they really cannot intervene for the time being. When things calm down there, they will face an extremely difficult opponent.

All they can do is to stick to it temporarily and strengthen themselves.

Then, by supporting Jiangdong, Sun Quan must have hated Jingzhou more than the north.

Xun Yu believed that Sun Quan would not hesitate if he had the opportunity to attack Jingzhou.

Therefore, Cao Pi's next task is very important.

Cao Ang died young, and Cao Pi was Cao Cao's eldest son. In addition, Cao Cao's age was slowly growing.

Confirming the successor was very important, and he had to make plans for Cao Cao's future.

Furthermore, he heard that Sun Jian's daughter has not yet been married. If the marriage can be successful, it will be a good strategy to win over Jiangdong. As for which of Cao Cao's sons to choose, that will be discussed later.

At this time, inside the Jingzhou military camp.

The woman Xun Yu was thinking of could beat a veteran to the ground.

Sun Shangxiang then raised his spear, looked around, and asked, "Who is coming?"

There was silence all around. Everyone looked at each other and took a step back in unison.

When this little ancestor first came to the military camp, she had a separate barracks. The general said it was because she was a woman.

But when you enter the barracks, who cares whether you are a man or a woman?
Take another look, well, with such tender skin and tender flesh, he must not be an escaped slave from someone else's family, right?
After a few more days of contact, the intensity of training every day is the same as theirs, and the meals they eat are the same.

At the beginning, everyone was still under the instructions from the superiors not to cause trouble, but they couldn't bear their curiosity. After a few months, someone launched an offensive against the female soldier.

However, he didn't say anything. He just said, "You can beat me before you talk."

Then there was the scene just now.

The one who made the move just now was considered to be the most skilled among them, but he couldn't survive a few moves from the opponent, which shows how high the opponent's martial arts skills are.

"If not, I'll go have dinner." Sun Shangxiang raised his gun and left.

All the people looked at each other in blank dismay.
