Driven away by Uncle Liu, Cao Cao worshiped me as a military adviser!

"Report!"

As soon as he came riding Juechen, Cao Hong ran into the Chinese army tent in a hurry!

"Master!!"

"General Cao Ren led [-] soldiers in an ambush in Xinye, and the big-eared bandits set fire to Xinye..."

"Cao Ren led the generals to break out of the siege, looking for a way to run. Hearing that there was no fire at the east gate, he rushed out of the east gate. The soldiers trampled on each other, and countless people died!"

"Cao Ren and others were just out of the fire, and Zhao Yun led the army to rush to fight..."

……

boom! ~

Cao Cao slapped the table with his palm, gritted his teeth, and asked eagerly, "How's the damage?!"

"Burn to death, fled, and beheaded countless people. General Cao Ren has [-] soldiers and horses, only [-] are left..."

The [-] troops directly removed most of them.

How can Cao Cao accept this: "Big-eared thief! You bullied me too much!!"

"Most of the [-] soldiers and horses were lost. Why is this happening? What about Xia Houyuan, I sent him [-] tigers and leopards to ride the starry night to help him, why is there such a big defeat!"

"If the Huben army hadn't arrived in Xinye in time, Cao Ren would have died under Zhao Yun's gun! Xia Houyuan arrived in time, and I am afraid that even 2 people will not be able to keep..."

Cao Cao was stunned.

The anger in my heart is burning...

Bowangpo was on fire, and Xinye was on fire again...

It's not the same place, but it's both Huo Gong, his love general Cao Ren has been on the same hurdle twice in succession!

Xu Chu on one side jumped up immediately, his face flushed with excitement: "Look! Look, I'll just say it, Zhuge Liang will burn Xinye, I've already said it!"

The depression and distress in Cao Cao's heart can be imagined!

Although Xu Chu is a well-known fool and is Cao Cao's favorite general, but he will inevitably be a little too excited.

It seems a bit of a suspicion of gloating...

Boss Cao was getting annoyed, and reached out and threw a stack of official documents on Xu Chu: "You can't restrain yourself. Those who know say you are a fool, but those who don't know think you are the spy of the second thief!"

Xu Chu coughed, put away his excitement, and bowed his head resentfully.

Cao Hong looked at Xu Chu in confusion, and then stepped forward: "My lord, when was Liu Bei not beaten like a bereaved dog by us before?"

"Since Liu Bei got Zhuge Kongming, we have stumbled twice one after another. Liu Bei got Zhuge, which has become a big worry for us!"

When Liu Bei got Zhuge, he was like a fish in water.

"If my Fengxiao is still there, why is it here!" Cao Cao couldn't help shaking his head after hearing this, with great grief and indignation.

Conquering Wuhuan made him lose his most important adviser.

How a talented counselor like Zhuge Wolong fell into the hands of a bereaved dog like Liu Bei made Cao Cao even more unacceptable.

"My lord, this Zhuge Wolong is really not to be underestimated. If you hadn't predicted the enemy ahead of time, I'm afraid Xinye would gain but lose again, and Cao Ren's 5 horses would also be wiped out!" Cao Hong couldn't help but sigh with emotion, burning Bowangpo , Burning Xinye, these two fires have burned down, Zhuge Wolong has made many people in Cao Ying terrified.

Cao Cao frowned suddenly, and looked at Xu Chu beside him.

Liu Bei won Zhuge and let him lose his soldiers and generals.

Fortunately, he has Xu Chu, the Marquis of the Tiger. Although he is a simpleton, he seems to have gotten the hang of it...

If Xu Chu hadn't reminded him, Cao Ren would have been beheaded by Zhao Yun, and none of the [-] troops would survive!

This is indeed a blessing in misfortune...

Cao Cao got up, walked over to pat Xu Chu, and sighed, "Xu Chu, you are really my lucky general. If it weren't for you, Xia Houyuan might not be able to come back. Let's talk about what reward you want!"

Xu Chu scratched his head, a little embarrassed.

What could he want?

"Why don't you reward the prime minister with a jar of good wine and meat..."

Cao Cao laughed loudly and said, "Reward!".

Chapter 4 The wise and foolish Xu Chu

Xu Chu moved a large jar of wine directly to Chen Fan's tent.

"Sir, you made me Xu Chuli make a great contribution. Come on, this is all wine from the prime minister, if it's not enough, I'll give it to you!" Xu Chu greeted with a smile.

There are no beautiful women in the army, but there are fine wines.

Chen Fan lifted the lid and took a sip, it was like rice wine, it really didn't poke.

Earlier, Chen Fan directly said that he was hit by the burning of Xinye, which made Xu Chu awe-inspiring in front of the boss.

At the same time, it also allowed Xu Chu to recognize Chen Fan's ability, this is a master!

Moreover, he was able to predict Zhuge Liang's prediction. I am afraid that no one will believe it...

"Hey, is it delicious?" Xu Chu leaned over.

Zhuge glanced at Xu Chu: "If you have something to say, say it, if it's a fart, let it go."

Xu Chu coughed, then straightened up, and asked solemnly:

"Sir, today I heard the Prime Minister say that when he was reading the book on military affairs, he said to use the right combination, to win by odds, and so on..., to win by odds, what do you mean, what else is five-five-five?"

"You're talking about Sun Tzu's Art of War, right?" Chen Fan asked leisurely, sipping some wine.

The wine in this era is not white wine, but mellow yellow rice wine, rice wine and the like, which have a special taste and can be easily accepted by normal people.

Xu Chu nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, it seems to be Sun Tzu's Art of War!"

Chen Fan frowned: "What seems to be, you can't read?"

Xu Chu lowered his head helplessly: "It's true that I can't read..."

It was only then that Chen Fan remembered that this was the Three Kingdoms, and the literacy rate in the feudal era had always been pitifully low.

The literacy rate of the Ming Dynasty in the Daxing Imperial Examination is only one-tenth, which is enough to beat all the countries of the same generation, not to mention the more distant Three Kingdoms era?

Not to mention anything else, under the command of Cao Cao, who is like a cloud of warriors, more than half of the warriors are illiterate...

Xu Chu, who is so naive, naturally cannot be excluded.

With a long sigh, Chen Fan said flatly: "Just because you don't eat alone, I will tell you."

"What you said just now is from "Sun Tzu's Art of War: Military Potential Chapter": All warriors use righteousness to win with surprises. Therefore, those who are good at surprises are as infinite as heaven and earth, and as endless as rivers and seas."

"From end to end, the sun and the moon are the same; from death to life, the four seasons are also. The sound is no more than five, and the changes of the five tones are indescribable; , the change of the five flavors is indescribable..."

Xu Chu was confused: "What do you mean?"

Chen Fan began to explain:

"In all battles, use regular soldiers to join forces, and use strange soldiers to win."

"A person who is good at winning by surprise, his magical methods are rich and colorful, emerging one after another, just like the endless changes of the world, just like the endless rush of rivers and rivers..., cycle and cycle, the sun and the moon are like this!"

"Going and coming again, the change of seasons is like this!"

"There are no more than five tones, Gong Shangjiao Zhengyu, but the music played by the fusion of five tones is endless!"

"There are no more than five colors, blue, yellow, red, white and black. But the beauty of the painting made by the harmony of the five colors is endless!"

"There are only five flavors, sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, and salty, but the taste of the five flavors is inexhaustible!"

"The basic methods of combat are nothing more than two kinds of Qi and Zheng, but the changes and applications of Qi and Zheng are endless..."

"Odd and positive transform into each other, just like spinning along a circle without end, who can exhaust it?"

Xu Chu's eyes widened in disbelief.

So mysterious, so mysterious, so powerful, so powerful!

……

into the night,

By the campfire outside the tent.

Chen Fan, who was being guarded by several soldiers, was looking up at the stars with his neck up, and he was flying in the sky:

"Boss Cao's side is not easy to mess with. I took the initiative to surrender. It's been a few days, and Xu Chu just comes to see me from time to time..."

"And Cao Cao is suspicious by nature, what kind of murder in a dream..."

"However, fortunately, the Battle of Chibi will start soon. By then, Boss Cao will lose even his pants, so I will just escape."

"The north has been pacified, and there won't be too much turmoil in the Central Plains. It's a good place to go. When I make soap and sell it, wouldn't it be easy to make a fortune?"

"Yes, when the time comes to copy some poems and songs, wouldn't it be wonderful to be the eighth son of Jian'an?"

Chen Fan didn't follow Boss Cao wholeheartedly, he wanted to live a peaceful life for himself.

When the world is in conflict, choosing a master is risky, and the team needs to be cautious.

Let him do the work of a dog and a horse with all his heart and brains, the big-eared thief can't do it, and boss Cao can't do it either!

……

Chinese army tent.

After dealing with all the military affairs, Cao Cao immediately took a rest, but picked up a military book.

It is Sun Tzu's Art of War.

Cao Cao was in charge of military affairs all his life, and he was very busy, but he was able to read a lot of books. He especially liked to study the art of war, and he was the first person in history to comment on "The Art of War by Sun Tzu".

The annotations he made can indeed combine his own combat experience to expound unique insights, to the point, clear, simple and concise, and to explain the profound meaning.

Under the oil lamp, Cao Cao murmured softly while writing: "Ten to encircle... Xu Chu, you explained that you have ten times as many troops, why don't you just launch an attack and encircle them?"

Xu Chu, who had been standing by the side, straightened his chest and said with high spirits, "Siege means encirclement and suppression."

As soon as these words came out, Cao Cao paused for a moment.

He was just asking casually, wanting to tease Xu Chu, an idiot who didn't know a single word.

That's right, I don't even know one of Dou Da's sons, so what kind of art of war can he know?

However, Xu Chu's answer greatly exceeded his expectations...

Cao Cao looked at Xu Chu strangely and nodded, "So that's what it means."

Before Cao Cao finished speaking, Xu Chu rushed forward in two or three steps, as if he had been beaten to death: "My lord is ten times stronger than the enemy, so we will encircle and suppress one of them. Don't let any one go. Let's compete for the best!"

"If you are five times the enemy, attack; if you are twice the enemy, try to defeat the enemy; if you are evenly matched, try to disperse and defeat the enemy. If you are weaker than the enemy, avoid fighting!"

After Xu Chu finished speaking, he laughed.

Walk back contentedly, and continue to stand guard with your head held high!

Cao Cao was dumbfounded, as if he saw a rooster laying eggs...

"Huhou, have you started to learn the art of war?" Cao Cao stroked his beard and asked meaningfully.

"No, I just heard someone say something casually. I don't want to learn the art of war. It gives me a headache just looking at it..." Xu Chu continued to stand guard calmly.

Cao Cao shook his head and smiled bitterly, and continued to write notes on Sun Tzu's Art of War, writing, writing, looking up at Xu Chu...

Tsk, this guy looks this way from time to time.

Looking at it like that, it looks like it can't wait.

Cao Cao yawned, and read softly to the book of war: "Everyone who fights..."

As soon as Boss Cao started to read, Xu Chu yelled, "I know!"

"All warriors, win with justification and odds!"

Cao Cao stared at Xu Chu: "In the end..."

Xu Chu: "I know! The end and the beginning, the sun and the moon are the same; the death and resurrection, the four seasons are also!"

Cao Cao: "It's too loud."

Xu Chu: "My lord! Hehehe, I also know this, the sound is only five, and the change of five tones is indescribable!"

Cao Cao: "The color is no more than five..."
