Han family achievements

Chapter 297 How about Xu County?

After Zhang Wen finished speaking, Shi Shi, who was beside him, stared at Cao Cao closely.

Unknowingly, Cao Cao has become an important figure that cannot be ignored. He is not only the favor of the current emperor, but most importantly, he has an army of [-], which can completely influence the current war situation!

Just like the last time he suddenly seized Qiao County, the situation in the south changed drastically.

It's the same now. If he makes the slightest move, the battle to conquer Yuan Shu may come to a sudden halt, or even lead to sudden death!

Cao Cao responded to Zhang Wen's straight-to-the-point approach with a serious expression. He raised his hand and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Zhang, please ask for orders to preemptively attack Pei State to prevent Dong Zhuo from aiding Yuan!"

Zhang Wen kept observing Cao Cao's expression, but didn't see anything on his face.

After a moment of silence, Zhang Wen said, "If I don't allow it, will you act without permission?"

"Don't dare!"

Cao Cao answered very simply, "I will obey the orders of Duke Zhang!"

Zhang Wen's face twitched slightly and he said: "You are not allowed to enter the army without my order. Go ahead."

He has already seen that Cao Cao will not obey his orders.

"Your Majesty, please retire." Cao Cao showed great respect. After saluting, he resigned and left.

Watching Cao Cao leave, Zhang Wen pinched his eyebrows with his right hand and sighed with a headache.

Seeing this, the officer in charge of the history hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhang, are you going to persuade General Cao after I'm down?"

Zhang Wen waved his hand and ignored it.

This person was sent by Da Sima Mansion. He obviously had some purpose.

Zhi Shi bowed and quickly chased after him.

When they arrived at the gate, they saw Cao Cao getting on his horse and shouting, "General, wait a moment."

Cao Cao paused, turned to look over, and signaled to Xu Chu beside him that the horse's head that was about to turn stopped in place.

The officer in charge of history came over, smiled and raised his hand and said, "General Cao, don't you know the subordinate?"

Cao Cao sat on the horse, his narrow eyes narrowed slightly. He vaguely felt that this person was familiar, but he couldn't remember it. He turned over and dismounted, raised his hand and said: "Cao's eyes are clumsy..."

The officer who was engaged in history raised his hand hurriedly and said: "I don't dare to be a lower-ranking official. I am engaged in the Military Intelligence Department of Da Sima Prefecture."

Cao Cao suddenly remembered and asked, "Is he the disciple of General Zhang Zhonglang?"

General Zhang Zhonglang, Zhang Liao.

Seeing that Cao Cao was thinking about it, Zhang Li stretched out his hand with a respectful expression and said, "General Cao, would you like to chat for a few words?"

Cao Cao's expression was normal, and he had noticed that this person was unusual, especially because he came from the "Military Intelligence Department", which made Cao Cao even more afraid.

Cao Cao stayed in Da Sima Mansion for more than a year and had a deep understanding of this organization.

To put it simply, this organization is responsible for spying and monitoring the military intelligence of 'threat forces', and this 'threat force' was defined by Cao Cao himself.

In this definition, Cao Cao is probably included!
Especially seeing this tension, Cao Cao removed the 'possibility' from his mind.

Cao Cao smiled calmly and followed Zhang Li out of the gate not far away.

"Is it Liu Gong's arrangement?" Cao Cao looked at Zhang Li and asked tentatively.

Zhang Li didn't shake his head or nod, and said: "General Cao, why do you think this world is moving and where is it going?"

Cao Cao was startled, his narrow eyes flashed slightly, but he still couldn't figure out what the tension was asking.

Zhang Li waited for a while and said: "General Cao believes that besides General Cao, who else is the hero in the world?"

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes slightly and did not answer.

Naturally, he had thought about this problem a long time ago. In his eyes, there is no hero in the world but Cao Cao!
But Cao Cao already understood that Zhang Li was not asking him to answer, nor was he sent by Liu Yu!
Who it is, Cao Cao's mind is like a mirror, and he can't help but feel nervous secretly.Zhang Li waited for a while, then suddenly looked around and said, "General Cao, what do you think of Xu County not far away?"

Cao Cao frowned slowly, thinking nervously in his heart.

He can answer the first two questions, but why is this last 'Xuxian'?
Xu County is only a hundred miles away from here, in Yingchuan County.

But even in Yingchuan, the emerald city of humanity, Xu County is still an inconspicuous little place.

'Miyali, why are you asking this? '

Cao Cao knew something about Xu County, but he understood that there must be some deep meaning in asking this question in the palace.

Cao Cao thought hard for a long time, but still didn't know how to answer. He raised his hand and said to Zhang Li, "I don't know, does it need to be played or is it necessary for the angel to turn around?"

Zhang Li shook his head repeatedly and said: "It's just a casual question from the lower official. General Cao doesn't need to pay attention."

Cao Cao examined Zhang Li and saw that it was indeed not that urgent. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and raised his hand: "Dare you ask the angel..."

Zhang Li suddenly clapped his head and said: "General Cao, the official is confused. Liu Gong also asked the official to bring a message to General Cao, which is a cheap thing, but destroying Yuan is the first priority."

After saying that, Zhang Li hurriedly left.

Cao Cao looked at his back with an iron expression.

The palace asked him three questions, which seemed irrelevant and unclear, and he couldn't guess clearly, but they were obviously some kind of warning.

And what does Liu Yu mean when he wants him to "act cheaply"?Does it conflict with these three issues in the palace?

"General."

Xu Chu came over and saw his serious look on his face, and whispered: "Do you want to leave as soon as possible?"

Cao Cao took a deep breath, suppressed the surprise and doubt in his heart, and said, "Go back first."

Xu Chu responded, mounted his horse with Cao Cao, alerted the surroundings, hit his horse and galloped away.

As soon as Cao Cao left, Zhang Wen appeared at the door, holding his hands behind his back and looking towards the south.

He was thinking about what Liu Yu said to him in Luoyang City.

Those words are all "treason and unethical". Once you actually do it, you will bet on the Nine Clans.

Zhang Li stood next to Zhang Wen and became the inconspicuous working history again.

Zhang Wen remained silent for who knows how long, then said: "Can Da Sima still control the situation?"

Zhang Li bowed and did not answer.

Zhang Wen waited for a while and turned to look at him.

Zhang Li was stunned for a moment, then he realized what he was doing and said quickly: "Don't worry, Mr. Liu, everything is under the control of the Grand Sima Mansion."

Zhang Wen sneered and said: "If this is really the case, why does the court delay it until now? Liu Yu is too conceited and will drag me into a place of eternal destruction!"

Zhang Li didn't know why Zhang Wen suddenly acted like this, so he could only say: "Mr. Zhang, we just need to do our part."

Zhang Wen became more and more angry and said: "Do you know that if you do this, you will kill all nine of your tribes! Don't think that Zhang Wenyuan can do whatever he wants just because he has your majesty's favor! What do you Zhang family think about!"

Zhang Liao's Zhang family was indeed inconspicuous at first. Even if Zhang Liao gained Liu Bian's trust, it was ready to take off. Compared with those aristocratic families that have been passed down for decades, hundreds, or even hundreds of years, they are as small as dust!
Zhang Li was in a daze. He had no idea what Zhang Wen was talking about. Why were there only nine tribes?

As soon as he opened his mouth, a fast horse came in a hurry, and the messenger fell to the ground, knelt on one knee, and said loudly: "Report to General Zuo, Yuan Shao defeated Yuan Shu in Danyang County, most of Yuan Shu's tribe surrendered, Yuan Shu retreated to Kuaiji with the remaining soldiers .”

When Zhang Wen heard this, he didn't look happy at all, but instead frowned deeply.

With Yuan Shu's defeat, the princes in Jiangdong no longer have any control, and the real trouble for the court has arrived!
In addition, it is Dong Zhuo.

How will he react?
