The Three Kingdoms: A vicious plan was offered, and Liu Bei was stunned!

Chapter 472 Cao Mengde comes to visit with anger, Luo Yuan plays with words
Cao Cao went to visit Luo Yuan in person in anger. Five or six thousand of his navy soldiers ran away in one day. If this continued, would he still have any men under his command?
If he wanted to attack Jiangdong and fight Liu Bei, he would need navy. He had already seen the combat effectiveness of Jiangdong's navy. The combat effectiveness of the navy under Zhou Yu's command was far superior to that of Jingzhou's navy.

Cao Cao thought he could rely on numbers to attack, but after seeing the water battle between Zhou Yu and Cai Mao, he knew that water battles had nothing to do with numbers.

The key to the water station lies in the level and tactics of the straw boat. If you don’t know how to operate the boat on the Yangtze River and are not familiar with the water station, the more people you have, the more deaths you will have.

Cao's army came from the north and were not familiar with the water conditions in the south of the Yangtze River. The combat effectiveness of the Jingzhou navy was not good, which gave Cao Cao a headache.

Now there are deserters.

This is not a good sign.

And he had more than one trouble. The first trouble that northerners needed to overcome when arriving in the South was acclimatization. In just a few days, many soldiers in his army had already had problems.

Cao Cao was prepared for things like acclimatization. He knew this problem would occur, but he didn't know how to treat it.

Luo Yuan, Xu Shu and others were in a meeting. When they heard someone say Cao Cao was coming, before they could go out to greet him, Cao Cao had already rushed in.

Cao Cao was so angry when he saw Luo Yuan that he wanted to fight him. Luo Yuan was living too good a life.

It is very hot in the south of the Yangtze River now. It was early summer when Cao Cao went south, and it was already summer when he arrived in Jiangling. There is a lot of water in the south of the Yangtze River, so it is hot and humid.

He was trying hard to survive when he lived in the military camp, but when he arrived at the military headquarters and entered Luo Yuan's living room, he felt a cool breeze. When he looked at Cao Cao again, his face trembled slightly.

There was a row of ice blocks around the hall. These ice blocks were very large. In the hot summer, the cold air coming out of them was like white smoke.

Even he didn't dare to use it like this in Yecheng.

This kid Luo Yuan is really rich.

Thinking about it made Cao Cao angry. Not only did Luo Yuan have money and live a good life, but he also seduced his own soldiers. It was simply outrageous.

"Luo Yuan, what's your intention in seducing my soldiers?" Cao Cao sat there angrily, picked up the rice wine in the copper basin and drank it wildly in revenge.

It’s better to drink a little. You came here in person, so Luo Yuan can’t expect to treat you lightly.

Luo Yuan watched as Cao Cao drank all the rice wine in one breath and still shouted for more refills. He and Xu Shu looked at each other and were both speechless.

Luo Yuan asked: "What did Meng De say just now?"

Cao Cao said angrily, "You are pretending not to know again? You are seducing my navy. This is simply shameless."

"No way, when did I seduce you? Meng De, don't talk nonsense. Although you and I have a good relationship and we are relatives, I am still a local tyrant and I have to have some dignity." Luo Yuan said.

Cao Cao said, "I asked you to help me train the navy, but why did all the navy soldiers run away? How dare you say it has nothing to do with you?"

Luo Yuan sighed and said, "You asked me to help you train your navy, but you drove my people away a few days ago. What does it have to do with me if something happened in your army?"

"All our soldiers have surrendered to Jiangling. How dare you say you didn't know?"

"I don't know. The people below said that they have recruited some navy recently. I agreed because the world is not at peace now. This is Jiangling's internal affairs. Meng De, you really shouldn't interfere. Are you trying to find trouble on purpose again?" Luo Yuan laughed. He was so happy to see Cao Cao laughing. Did he want to experience what a people's war was?
The people of Jiangling are looking forward to it, waiting for Luo Yuan to take them there again.

The weather is hot in the summer and not much work can be done during the day, and there is nothing to do at night. People are looking forward to another large-scale event like this.

Luo Yuan was naturally aware that many of Cao's soldiers had defected to the Jiangling navy, but he had accepted them all and naturally would not return them to Cao Cao.

Boss Cao has a lot of wealth, so it would be a waste not to take advantage of it.

As long as he doesn't admit it, Cao Cao can't do anything to him.

Actually, this matter is Cao Cao's own fault. He had clearly asked him to help train the navy, but he couldn't accept the teaching approach!
'

They can change their orders every day. Soldiers have no say but they are not fools. If there is a better place, they will choose it.
Seeing that Luo Yuan was going to play shameless tricks on him, Cao Cao became even more annoyed. He could not suppress his anger and slammed the table fiercely: "You are shameless, and you still don't admit that you seduced my soldiers."

Xu Shu hurriedly said: "King Wei, calm down. It is really inappropriate for King Wei to say that my master seduced the soldiers."
Cao Cao rolled his eyes at Xu Shu and said, "You are also a trash." Although I used some tricks to win over Xu Shu, I was still nice to him.

"Xu Yuanzhi, you are a kind person, I just want to ask you what's wrong?"

Xu Shu smiled and said, "King of Wei, my master loves beautiful women more than the country. How can he seduce soldiers if he only seduces beautiful women? It is really inappropriate for King of Wei to say that my master seduces soldiers. Outsiders do not know the inside story. If they misunderstand that my master does not like beautiful women from now on, wouldn't it ruin my master's reputation? King of Wei is of noble status and has countless counselors around him. He should use accurate words to avoid misunderstandings.'

Luo Yuan nodded quickly: "That's right, Meng De, I'm a man, why would I seduce your soldiers? It's only possible if I seduce beautiful women, don't talk nonsense."

Xu Shu and Luo Yuan are just making trouble, which is unreasonable.

I told you about deserters, and you played word games with me.

Cao Cao ignored Luo Yuan and Xu Shu and asked directly, "My soldiers are now in your navy. Gongqi, how do you explain this? If this matter is not handled well, I can't help you. My army is now holding back a lot of anger and has no way to vent it."

Cao Cao is like this. He is threatening himself. It seems that if he doesn't threaten himself, nothing else will happen.

You really never consider negotiation when dealing with problems. This is a bad habit that you have developed from being used to bullying others.

Xu Shu filled Cao Cao's bowl with iced rice wine and asked, "Does the King of Wei have any evidence?"

"How could the reports from my generals be false? How could they lie to me?"

Xu Shu smiled and said, "The generals under the King of Wei naturally dare not deceive the King of Wei, but the General Military Office has not received any relevant reports. If there were deserters from the King of Wei's camp entering Jiangling, the General Military Office would not be unaware of it. We have indeed not received any relevant reports."

"What does that have to do with me?" Cao Cao drank a bowl of rice wine in one gulp. This Jiangling rice wine was not strong in alcohol and tasted very good, but it would still make one drunk if one drank too much.

Cao Cao was very angry, so Xu Shu filled his glass and he drank it all, showing his amazing drinking capacity.

Luo Yuan took the spoon from Xu Shu and poured more wine for Cao Cao himself. After Cao Cao finished drinking, he stroked his beard. Luo Yuan picked up a few ice cubes and stuffed them into his mouth: "Meng De, how is the army?"

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and his eyes turned sharp as he looked at Luo Yuan: "What do you mean?"
