Three Kingdoms: My wife invited me out of the mountain to ascend the throne while living in seclusio

In Cao Cao's tent.

Cao Cao sat in the upper position, and below were a group of advisers and generals.

There was no sound in the entire camp, only the heavy breathing of a group of rough men could be heard.

Cao Cao was in a daze in the upper position, and stayed for a long time before breaking the silence.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha"

Cao Cao kept laughing, but the laughter was extremely weird.

Xu Chu, Zhang Liao and other generals looked at each other in bewilderment, not quite understanding what the lord was laughing at, why did he have such an eerie smile?

Xu Chu on the side shrank his neck even more. The lord hadn't hit him for several days, and he was afraid that the lord would notice him.

however.

On the other hand, Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Xun You and other counselors knew very well that all kinds of strange smiles were intertwined, which was the expression of various complex emotions.

The lord laughed strangely because he was so angry.

Cao Cao was silent for a long time.

"One hundred thousand elites, one hundred thousand elites, I am one hundred thousand elites, and half of them are lost!"

"Hit Jingzhou. It's still a dilapidated Jingzhou with civil strife. Isn't that shameful?!"

Cao Cao spread his hands to everyone, raised his eyes and scanned the people in the tent.

Liu Biao died of illness, and the two brothers Liu Qi and Liu Cong had a civil war. This shows that the civil strife in Jingzhou is bound to be very serious.

Facing Jingzhou, which was suffering from civil strife, Xiahou Dun led an army of [-] and was defeated miserably.

Cao Cao was extremely shocked by this!

What made him even more unbelievable was that the opponent didn't lose a single soldier.

"I will lure the army into the dense forest...and then set fire to Bowangpo!"

"The opponent didn't spend a single soldier, and our army lost most of it!"

"Sarcasm is not irony, tell me! Is irony irony?!"

Cao Cao was very angry, and his beard exploded with anger.

Everyone: ()
All the advisers and generals below lowered their heads slightly, not daring to speak at all.

Everyone is human, and keeping silent at this time is the best response.

Therefore, no one wants to open their mouths to touch the lord's bad luck first, it will be bad if the anger burns on them.

It's been a long time.

Cao Cao's anger finally subsided a little.

"Fortunately. Yuan Rang is defeated, but Liu Bei is also missing..."

Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief and narrowed his eyes.

This is what comforts him.

It's not that he has never lost a battle. Cao Cao's ability to adjust his mentality is extraordinary. Although Xiahou Dun was defeated, he even wanted to promote Xiahou Dun.

He sent Xiahou Dun to go south in a hurry and go straight to Xinye. His main purpose was to capture Liu Bei and prevent Liu Bei from developing in the south.

Because he always thought that Liu Bei was not simple, and he always regarded Liu Bei as a serious problem.

Although the army was defeated, Liu Bei did not benefit.

The enemy's life is not good, he eats venison to be delicious.

"Tell me, who in Jingzhou can plan to such a degree?"

"Why didn't I know there are such talented people in Jingzhou?"

Cao Cao pondered for a long time, looked at the group of counselors headed by Guo Jia and said.

After he was relieved, another question confused him
It is absolutely impossible to fight without a single soldier, and without a strategy to cover up one's surprise by surprise, and to want this kind of strategy, one must have a counselor with wisdom beyond ordinary people.

He was very clear about the mediocre people under Liu Biao's account before, and it was absolutely impossible to have such a ruthless role.

When did Jingzhou Mansion have such powerful counselors?
He didn't know the news at all.

This is also what confused him most about the Battle of Bowangpo.

After Cao Cao asked, no one said a word, obviously they couldn't understand Jingzhou anymore.

After a long time of silence in the tent
"My lord, Jingzhou has always produced a large number of talents, but the number of crouching tigers, hidden dragons is unknown?"

"In the past, Liu Biao was not good at employing people, and he was self-sufficient and had no fighting spirit. This caused many talented people to leave their hometowns."

"But now, from the defeat of General Xiahou, it can be seen that... the situation in Jingzhou has quietly changed!"

Guo Jia stood up, clasped his fists and said.

This is a very scary place.

The great changes in Jingzhou indicate that it will be more difficult for them to go south.

"According to the news, Liu Qi is currently in charge of Jingzhou affairs, and another person named Xu Yuanzhi and Pang Shiyuan are assisting."

"I heard that Pang Tong is known as the young phoenix, which shows that he is very talented."

"In addition, Xu Shu's intelligence is not far from that of Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Cub, so it can be seen that he is also very human."

Guo Jia decided to continue.

Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia and nodded appreciatively.

Guo Jia is worthy of being his favorite counselor, and worthy of his status as a military adviser offering wine!

He has such a clear grasp of the situation of other forces, and he doesn't know all the things Guo Jia said.

"Feng Xiao is saying that Xu Yuanzhi and Pang Tong did the burning of Bowangpo?"

Cao Cao said immediately.

The others also looked at Guo Jia with admiration.

Thousands of miles away, he touched the other party all over, which made the unreachable person feel ashamed.

This analytical ability is worthy of being the chief strategist.

however.

Guo Jia shook his head.

"No, no! My lord, just listen to me."

"The current person in charge of leading the troops in Jingzhou is a man named Zhao Zilong. This man originally worked for Gongsun Zan's White Horse Justice."

"Afterwards, I had a good relationship with Liu Bei, so I switched to Liu Bei's account, but for some unknown reason, he switched to Liu Qi. What's even more incomprehensible is that Liu Qi actually let him command the entire army of Jingzhou!"

"My lord, I think it's not surprising that Xu Yuanzhi and Pang Shiyuan voted for Liu Qi. After all, these two have never voted for anyone before."

"But the strange thing lies in this Zhao Zilong's person. I wonder if my lord has noticed what happened before...?"

Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao and asked.

"Oh? What's the matter?"

Cao Cao was taken aback, not knowing what Guo Jia was referring to.

"Jiangdong Sun Quan personally led an army of [-] to attack Jiangxia, but returned with more than half of the losses."

"There is even a saying in Jingzhou that the tiger rises in Jiangxia County, and the halberd sinks into the sand, Sun Zhongmou!"

Guo Jia said.

"What do you mean?"

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes.

"It looks like Zhao Zilong and Xu Yuanzhi did this!"

Guo Jia replied.

"Looks like?"

Cao Cao was suddenly surprised.

Didn’t the various signs mentioned by Guo Jia indicate that Xu Yuanzhi and Zhao Zilong did the burning of Bowangpo?

The other advisers, as well as a group of generals, were also surprised.

The military division said so much, isn't that what analysis means?

"No!"

Guo Jia shook his head, "But there are rumors in Jingzhou that Liu Qi has an expert behind him!"

"Xu Yuanzhi and Zhao Zi have been by Liu Qi's side all the time, why is it still rumored that Liu Qi has an expert behind him?"

"Therefore, I guess. In fact, the burning of Bowangpo was not done by Xu Yuanzhi and Zhao Zilong."

"It's someone else!"

Guo Jia said very firmly.

The lord is going to lead troops south, so he naturally pays more attention to the affairs of Jingzhou, which is the basic ability that a counselor should possess.

Otherwise, he wouldn't know so much, and he only analyzed these signs before he was sure that there might be an expert pointing out behind the burning of Bowangpo.

Cao Cao was shocked when he heard the military division's analysis.

"There's an expert behind them?"

"how can that be?!"
