Three Kingdoms: copy Lu Bu's force at the beginning

Cao Pi nodded: "Pi'er knows."

"At that time, Aunt Huan also said the same to Pi'er."

"It's just that Pi'er was heartbroken that his mother had been tortured, so he couldn't help but tell his father, please save mother from the flames as soon as possible."

Cao Cao's heart hurt even more, and his head hurt even more. As he walked outside, he waved his hands: "Remember, my father already knew about this matter, and you must not bring it up again in the future."

"Here, father." Cao Pi didn't know what was going on, so he agreed immediately.

After sending Cao Cao away, Cao Pi also breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself, the relationship between father and mother is really deep.

Hearing that his mother was being tortured by Hua Yu, his father was really in pain, and even suffered a headache.

In this way, father will definitely send troops as soon as possible to rescue mother from Hua Yu.

After all, he is a four-year-old child. Although Cao Pi is more mature and smart than other children of the same age, he still doesn't understand the relationship between men and women.

These words undoubtedly made Cao Cao completely give up on the Bian family.

Back in the study, Cao Cao was still angry, covering his head with his left hand, sitting on the desk, writing a letter of divorce.

Immediately, regardless of the night, Cao Cao immediately sent someone to send the letter of divorce to Hangu Pass and hand it over to Yuwei.

A letter of divorce is enough to represent Cao Cao's meaning, it is hatred, deep hatred.

When the letter of divorce was in the hands of the Bian family, the Bian family had nothing to do with Cao Cao, and Cao Cao no longer wore a shiny hat every day.

After sending the messenger away, Cao Cao's headache became lighter, but he couldn't sleep.

"Come on, go and invite Mr. Xi here immediately."

After a while, Xi Zhicai arrived.

Xi Zhicai's eyes were still a little sleepy, he was obviously asleep, but Cao Cao yelled him up.

"I've met my lord." Xi Zhicai bowed to Cao Cao, and found that Cao Cao's face was gloomy, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions, and directly knelt down on the futon opposite Cao Cao.

After sitting down, Xi Zhicai remained silent, waiting for Cao Cao's words.

Cao Cao sighed slightly, and said, "Mr. Xi was invited to come late at night to discuss future development."

"Dong Zhuo is difficult to get rid of for the time being, and the princes of the Guandong are in a state of disunity, which is not enough to achieve great things."

"Although I have the heart to help the world, but there are few soldiers and food shortages, and I am living under the fence of others, and there is no day for success for the time being."

"Therefore, I want to ask Mr. Xi for advice."

Xi Zhicai was taken aback for a moment, thinking to himself, the lord has always had a heart of forbearance, and he knows the current situation well, so why is he suddenly eager to stand up?

Today, Bian Bing brought his second son Cao Pi back to the east, which should be a happy event, but the lord asked for advice late at night, and there must be something strange in it.

However, no matter how clever Xi Zhicai was, he didn't know that the three daughters of the Bian family and Cao Zhang were detained in Chang'an, let alone that the Bian family had become Hua Yu's bed guest.

Seeing Cao Cao's gloomy face, Xi Zhicai didn't dare to say any more, letting Cao Cao wait for the opportunity with peace of mind.

Frowning slightly, Xi Zhicai thought quickly, and sighed: "My lord, from my point of view, there are two strategies for the present."

"One is the best policy, and the other is the worst policy."

Cao Cao immediately asked, "What's the next move?"

Xi Zhicai replied: "Yuan Shu is a general in the future, neither has the post of state shepherd nor the post of county guard."

"However, Yuan Shu occupied Nanyang, invaded Runan, and occupied Huainan to the east."

"This is a crime of disrespect, and it can also be regarded as a rebellion against the world. It should be punished."

"My lord can bid farewell to Yuan Shao tomorrow, and go south to Runan to compete with Yuan Shu."

"It's just that under Yuan Shu's command, there are many cultures and martial arts, and a hundred thousand soldiers. Their strength is undoubtedly the first among the princes of the Guandong."

"Although my lord has Xiahou and Cao brothers as generals, they only have three thousand soldiers, and they have never experienced battle."

"Not to mention, Runan is the land of Yuan's family, and the lord does not take advantage of the advantages of geographical advantages and harmonious people."

"Once the lord fights with Yuan Shu, it will naturally be the result of fewer victories and more defeats."

"If you win, the lord will be able to firmly occupy the land of Runan, and then march into Nanyang, head east to Huainan, and in the future, go south to Yangzhou, visit Yuzhou and Xuzhou in the north, and achieve hegemony."

"And once the lord is defeated, all previous efforts will be wasted, and we can only start all over again and continue to rely on Yuan Shao."

"At that time, the lord has no soldiers, and under Yuan Shao's command, he will not be as good as he is now."

Cao Cao listened and fell silent, his two small eyes were shining brightly.

After being silent for half an hour, Cao Cao asked again: "Mr. Xi, what is the best policy?"

Xi Zhicai continued: "Yanzhou Yellow Turbans have risen, and Zhou Mu Liu Dai is leading an army to suppress them."

"Chenliu prefect Zhang Miao, Shanyang prefect Yuan Yi, and Jiyin prefect Yuan Xu are at odds with Liu Dai."

"From my point of view, Liu Dai will be defeated sooner or later. At that time, my lord can ask Yuan Shao for orders and send troops to Yanzhou."

"Yuan Shao is trying to seize Jizhou, so naturally he has no time to take care of Yanzhou."

"Yuan Shu has a big plan, and is planning to send troops to the northern part of Henan."

"Once Yuan Shu occupies Northern Henan, his next target must be Yanzhou. This is naturally something Yuan Benchu ​​doesn't want to see."

"And under Yuan Benchu's command, the only one who can stand alone is the lord, and there is no other person."

"Therefore, if the lord asks for orders, Yuan Benchu ​​can only agree."

"Once my lord can enter the land of Yanzhou, the great situation will rise. From now on, I can compete with Yuan Benchu, and I don't need to listen to his orders anymore."

"Once the lord rises to power, Yuan Benchu ​​has a strong enemy like Gongsun Zan in the north, and he is unwilling to meet Yuan Gonglu in battle, so he can only acquiesce in the lord's separatist rule of Yanzhou, and restrain Yuan Gonglu for him."

"With my lord's ability, once I can occupy the land of Yanzhou, Yuan Shu will definitely not be my lord's opponent."

"In this way, my lord can go south to Yuzhou and drive Yuan Gonglu back to Nanyang."

"Based on Yanzhou and Yuzhou, my lord can raise more than [-] troops, and it's no problem to attack Xuzhou in the east."

"At that time, even if Yuan Benchu ​​occupies Jizhou, Youzhou, Bingzhou and Qingzhou, it will be difficult to compete with the lord."

"As for Yuan Gonglu, the space he occupies is just for making the princess's wedding dress."

After finishing speaking, Xi Zhicai immediately stopped talking and said no more.

As a counselor, his words are already in place.

Next, it's time for Cao Cao to make his own choice, whether to choose the best strategy or the worst strategy.

Cao Cao was angry tonight and was eager for success, so Xi Zhi understood.

But if Cao Cao listened to his advice and abandoned the best strategy and insisted on choosing the worst strategy, Xi Zhicai would be very disappointed.

After being disappointed, Xizhi will continue to give Cao Cao a chance, or choose another master, it's hard to say.

After listening to Xi Zhicai's analysis, Cao Cao took a deep breath, his impulsive mood gradually calmed down, his headache pain completely disappeared, and his mind was extremely clear.

"In that case..." Cao Cao is one of the rare enlightened masters in this era after all, and he quickly woke up from the annoyance of losing the three daughters of the Bian family and Cao Zhang, and nodded, "Then act according to the best policy."

Xi Zhicai also breathed a sigh of relief.

The current Ming Lord, Xi Zhicai only had his eyes on two people, one was Cao Cao in front of him, and the other was Hua Yu who was far away in Chang'an.

Since Cao Cao didn't let him down, Xi Zhicai naturally wouldn't act against his master.

Xi Zhicai straightened his body and bowed his hands to Cao Cao: "My lord is wise."

Cao Cao sighed slightly, he was too impulsive just now, he almost ruined his future for three women and one child.
