Three Kingdoms: the Search for a Saint Starts from Mistaking Cao Cao As His Father-in-law

"This man's ingenuity is truly unfathomable!"

Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai met eyes, passing the same look.

Cao Cao lowered his head and took a sip of tea, calming his emotions, and said casually: "So, the war between Duke Cao and Zhang Xiu is inevitable."

"War is unavoidable, but maybe it will end soon."

Su Yi's words had another mystery.

Cao Cao's teacup hung in the air, he raised his head and asked in confusion, "How do you say this?"

"Maybe, Cao Mengde's army has been Wancheng, and Zhang Xiu's army surrendered."

Su Yi said lightly.

"Zhang Xiu surrendered?"

Cao Cao's color changed slightly, but he said, "Zhang Xiu is a warrior in the Western Liang Dynasty. He just joined forces with Liu Biao, how could he surrender to Duke Cao without a fight?"

"Zhang Xiu's uncle Zhang Ji, who led the army to attack Liu Biao, was injured by Liu Yao and died. He Zhang family and Liu Biao still have a blood feud."

"The alliance between Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao is nothing more than a last resort due to lack of power and lack of food and grass."

"Cao Cao's strength is far superior to Liu Biao, and it also represents the emperor's expedition. Zhang Xiu betrayed Liu Biao and surrendered to Cao Cao, which makes sense."

Su Yi spoke eloquently, his mouth was dry, and he was busy drinking a cup of fragrant tea.

Cao Cao stroked his long beard, with a hint of excitement and deep suspicion in his eyes.

To surrender Zhang Xiu without fighting is naturally a joy from heaven, how can you not be excited.

But would Zhang Xiu really surrender without a fight, as Su Yi said?

"Oh, look at me, just chatting and chatting about things, and forget about the business."

Su Yi patted his forehead mockingly, and said, "I don't know what Shibo planned about the marriage between the younger generation and your daughter?"

"There's no rush to get married, we can talk about the world today."

Cao Cao returned to the topic again and asked, "Nephew, I think you have a lot of insight into the heroes of the world, so who do you think will rule the world in the future?"

Su Yi felt helpless. His father-in-law liked to talk about politics, so he could only chat with him reluctantly.

He then asked back: "Then Shibo thinks, who can rule the world?"

"Then Yuan Benchu's fourth and third princes, his advisors are like rain, fierce generals are like clouds, and the battle of Jieqiao even broke the white horse Gongsun, and he has the power to dominate the four provinces of Hebei. Can this person rule the world?"

Cao Cao asked in a serious tone.

"Yuan Shao?"

Su Yi smiled disdainfully, "Yuan Shao is lenient on the outside and ignorant on the inside, and his subordinates seem to be full of talents, but they can't be based on their merits, and they condone the competition for the throne.

"Well, this son's evaluation of Yuan Shao is the same as that of Xun Wenruo."

Cao Cao frowned and nodded secretly.

Since then.

Cao Cao pointed to the east again: "Xuzhou Liu Bei is a descendant of the royal family. Now he is sitting in Xuzhou, and he has the name of benevolence and righteousness. Can this person rule the world?"

"Liu Da'er has no hope."

Su Yi shook his head, but said: "Liu Bei is indeed a hero, and he is quite knowledgeable. Unfortunately, his ability is limited, and he cares too much about the so-called benevolence and righteousness.

Cao Cao was thoughtful.

After a long time, Cao Cao said again: "That Jingzhou Liu..."

"Shibo doesn't need to ask, I'll say it together."

Su Yi interrupted Cao Cao.

"Liu Biao of Jingzhou, Liu Yan of Yizhou, Yuan Shu of Huainan, Gongsun Zan of Youzhou, these four princes are all heroes of the world, but they have no heroic appearance."

"None of these people are qualified to rule the world!"

All the princes in the world were denied by Su Yi, and he was the only one left.

This kid, didn't he just believe that he, Cao Cao, was the one who could rule the world?

"In this way, the only hero who can rule the world is Sikong, Cao Mengde?"

Cao Cao stroked his beard and asked with a smile.

"It can only be said that he has the best chance!"

Su Yi's words caused a trace of surprise in Cao Cao's eyes.

"Cao Mengde's family is not as famous as Yuan Shao, but he has extraordinary courage, and uses his troops like a god. In just a few years, he has defeated a group of enemies, and has dominated the states south of the Yellow River. Now he is even relying on the emperor to make the princes, just like Yuan Shao."

"This person is really a superhero, the number one hero in the world!"

When Su Yi commented on Cao Cao, he couldn't help but look a little more solemn.

Hearing the young man in front of him praise him so highly, Cao Cao felt a sense of comfort all over his body.

"such a pity."
