A Journey to the Game World

Chapter 304 Cao Zhi's Use
"My lord, in order to prepare for this war! I have already ordered people to go to Jingzhou and Yizhou to collect grain, and the land of Jiangdong has just been recovered, so there is no preparation for the land of Jiangdong for the time being!

Judging from the data reported by various places, the military rations that can be allocated at present are enough for my 70 army for five months, so there is no need to worry about the military rations! "Zhuge Liang comforted Du Huo.

Du Huo frowned, his expression not relieved at all.

"I naturally know that the military rations are sufficient, but right now, what I am most nervous about is the transportation of the military rations!
It's not that I'm worrying unfoundedly, we now have an internal response by Cao Pi's side, but don't I have an internal response by Cao Pi's side?

Presumably, none of us can tell clearly about this, so if this matter really exists, then Cao Pi will definitely attack our military rations!

In fact, a strong military force is both an advantage and a disadvantage in some cases!

Do you remember the Battle of Guandu?When Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were fighting each other, Yuan Shao's military strength was several times that of Cao Cao's, but what happened in the end?

All of this is not all because of the disaster of the Wuchao!If we follow in Yuan Shao's footsteps this time, wouldn't it be another tragedy? "

Du Huo's worries were not unreasonable, after all, military rations would indeed affect the state of the entire army.

It's just that in the eyes of most commanders, they don't care about military rations at all!

Because in their eyes they only have victory or defeat on the battlefield, and they have no idea that these details determine victory or defeat.

Therefore, it can be seen from one point that Du Huo is different from those monarchs after all!
Of course, in the final analysis, it is still because of different thinking!So it is not too strange that this kind of phenomenon can appear!
However, when Du Huo raised this question, Zhuge Liang seemed a little embarrassed!
"My lord, I feel that you don't have to worry so much, my lord. You are not Yuan Shao, and Cao Pi is not Cao Cao. Therefore, although the current situation is the same as it was then, the final result will definitely not be the same as before. !
After all, there is no one around the lord like Xu You, who is a seller seeking glory, and you still have a killer mace in your hand that you have never used. If you can use it in a suitable position, it will definitely work. Unexpected effect! "

"you are right……"

After being reminded by Zhuge Liang, Du Huo really had the slightest urge to think about it.

It's just a pity that sometimes impulsiveness is just impulsive. Although Du Huo wanted to think of it at this time, he failed to do it in the end!
Instead, Zhuge Liang had to remind him: "My lord, you must have thought of it too! That's right, that person is Cao Zhi, Cao Pi's brother!"

After Zhuge Liang's reminder, Du Huo finally remembered Cao Zhi.

When Cao Zhi was arrested, it was during Du Huo's first Northern Expedition, but now that time has passed, Du Huo has indeed somewhat forgotten it, but fortunately, Zhuge Liang remembered it for him!

And now that Cao Zhi is being mentioned again, this is true, giving Du Huo a new solution!
"Where is he now? I want to see him right away!" Duho asked.

"I heard that he has been imprisoned in Qishan Camp all this time. If there is no accident, he should still be there!" Zhuge Liang said.

"Okay! You immediately arrange for someone to bring him here. I want to have a good chat with him!"

Du Huo became interested in an instant, and no matter how much he and Zhuge Liang talked about, in short, no matter what they talked about, the only thing Du Huo wanted to do now was to meet Cao Zhi!
"Here! I can send someone to Qishan Camp to bring him here. The journey is not too far away, and he will arrive by tomorrow evening at the latest!"

After receiving the order, Zhuge Liang left without the slightest hesitation. Obviously, when he proposed Cao Zhi, he should have expected this result!
Therefore, it is normal for him to have this series of reactions!

In the evening of the next day, everything really went as Zhuge Liang expected. When night fell, Cao Zhi was brought to Du Huo's place!
Because he wanted to meet Du Huo, Cao Zhi dressed up specially before arriving.

Although it seems that there is not much difference, it is undeniable that this is a little more energetic than when he was in prison!
"I haven't seen you for a long time, are you all right?"

When seeing Cao Zhi, Du Huo's greeting was a bit casual!

"Your Majesty is concerned, except for the suffering in prison, everything is fine!"

Among many people, Cao Zhi should be said to be the only one who calls Du Huo his majesty!

In fact, now that Du Huo has proclaimed himself emperor, so even if he is called His Majesty, that's not a bad idea.

It's just that Du Huo is not willing to let others call him that, because he prefers others to call him Lord, at least it has the air of a prince!
And a title like Your Majesty is more like the kind of title that a guy like a faint king likes.

Therefore, Du Huo deliberately gave up this title!

It's just that Cao Zhi didn't know, so even if Cao Zhi called him that, he didn't think it mattered!
"From the meaning of your words, it seems that you are complaining to me, yes, I did make you suffer a lot in prison, but you should also know why I did this!
After all, you are my enemy, even if you are no longer willing to fight against me, you are still my enemy, so since you are an enemy, I cannot be kind to you.However, as of now, this concept should indeed be changed! "

"Maybe your Majesty has some new ideas. I have decided to surrender to you and serve you. So as long as your majesty is willing to agree, I will definitely do my best to assist you without any second thoughts!"

Cao Zhi swears that he is much wiser now than before!
"Listening to what you said, although I feel very comfortable, I also have some doubts! After all, you also know that my journey has not been easy. If anyone says something, I will believe it without hesitation. I'm afraid I won't live until now!

So, although what you said is so lively, I will not believe you too readily! ’ Duho responded.

"Your Majesty can fully understand your Majesty's concerns! Since that's the case, why not just tell me what you need to do!" Cao Zhi said understandingly.

"You are very smart, well, since you already know my purpose, let me just say it straight!

Now my biggest enemy is Cao Pi, and Cao Pi and you are brothers again!Right now, I want you to come back to Cao Pi and be my internal response, and help me keep an eye on Sima Yi, how can this matter not trouble you? " Du Huo said.

Hearing this, Cao Zhi, who was still smiling at first, turned dark at that moment.

"Your Majesty, what is the difference between you doing this and asking me to commit suicide?" Cao Zhi asked.

"What do you mean by this? I have never wanted you to commit suicide. I just want you to return to Cao Pi as a spy. As his brother, doesn't he trust you?
What's more, I will also send people to protect you secretly. Even if there is really any danger, I can still keep you safe! "Duhuo promised.

Cao Zhi shook his head repeatedly and said: "Your Majesty, you don't understand what I mean at all, of course, it may also be because you don't understand Cao Pi!

In fact, I have long been useless to Cao Pi now!Even my existence can be said to be a threat to him!
And it is precisely because of this reason that I am willing to serve you, otherwise, I will never submit to you so wholeheartedly!
In fact, as early as Your Majesty led your army into the Wei territory, Cao Pi and I were already at odds!
It's just that the emperor was still alive at that time, so he didn't dare to do anything to me!
But now the emperor has long been in the sky, and Cao Pi has become the new emperor. If I go back now, even if I have no intention of taking his emperor's power, he will also have doubts about me!
In my estimation, I am afraid that it will not be long before I die in his hands. Even if it is behind the scenes, he must do so!
Because I know him, I grew up with him, I am afraid there are few people who know him better than me!
So, if your Majesty wants me to die by his hands, then let me go!
Anyway, this may not have any effect on His Majesty, it will only chill the hearts of those princes! "

Cao Zhi knew very well that he had no way to reject Du Huo's decision, so he had no choice but to play around and ask Du Huo to change his mind, so as to achieve his desired goal!
After Cao Zhi's explanation, Du Huo roughly understood the details of the matter.

Therefore, right after Cao Pi finished his explanation, Du Huo immediately made a decision.

"I already understand what you mean, but even so, let's wait for a while to send you to Luoyang!

It's just that during this period, you can't be idle. Right now, I still have a position that needs someone to fill it. If possible, I hope to hand it over to you! "

"Your Majesty, please do not hesitate to order, and I will definitely do it!" Cao Zhi responded without hesitation.

"Okay! Since you are so confident, I will leave the matter of delivering the rations to you! When the time comes, just go to the prime minister and go through the formalities!"

Du Huo showed a slight smile, as if he had succeeded in a trick.
