"After Ma Mengqi sent troops to Guandong, he defeated an army of 100,000 high-ranking cadres in one battle."
Cao Cao threw the newly obtained battle report on the case with force, making the thick and thin Fufeng paper make a clear snapping sound.
He lay carelessly on the ground, stretched his legs and feet, and reached into his arms to scratch the itchy spots under his armpits.
This inelegant behavior made Xun Yu, who was sitting opposite him, raise his eyebrows.
After the incident in Xu Du was completed, Xun Yu was transferred to Guandu.
Major matters in the palace are decided by His Majesty.
Xun Yu couldn't guess what kind of agreement Cao Cao and His Majesty had reached.
But he could see clearly that Cao Cao could not do without the banner of the Emperor.
And the world cannot do without the protection of Cao's most powerful body.
In the past two months, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, who were facing each other in Guandu, each launched several tentative offensives, but neither one took advantage of them.
As soon as Ma Chao left Guandong, he solved the siege of Cao's western front.
Such a trusted ally naturally made Cao Cao feel much better.
"I never imagined that a man as talented as Gao Gan could be plotted by a cold-hearted counselor like the judge.
He couldn't even survive a match against a hero like Ma Mengqi.
It's incredible to think about it.
"Cao Cao clicked his tongue obliviously, his eyes never leaving the battle report on the case, just like a child seeing his favorite toy.
As he spoke, he picked up the battle report again with salivation and looked over it over and over.
Xun Yu finally couldn't bear it any longer: "Ming Gong, please sit down without a dustpan."
"This is before the battle, Wen Ruo doesn't need to be so rigid about etiquette."
Cao Cao waved his hand, as if he was suddenly distracted, and muttered to himself: "It seems that our army's strategy needs to be adjusted in advance.
Although Ang'er brought back the letter of alliance with the Ma family, I never expected that Ma Mengqi would be so heroic and attract all the attention of Yuan Shao. " Xun Yu sat across from him quietly, seeing that Cao Cao's mind had already been focused on business matters, and no longer cared about Cao Cao's debauched and lawless behavior, he asked slowly and unhurriedly: "My lord, in this case, are you planning to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, no?"
I advocate the use of troops against Yuan Shao."
"Not bad."
Hearing this, Cao Cao restrained his playful smile and nodded: "Ma Chao is extremely talented, but he is too overqualified to deal with Yuan Shao.
Now, although it seems that Yuan Shao still sends troops to Guandu, the Western Front was defeated.
Once the news reaches Yuan Shao's ears, Yuan Shao will definitely compete with Ma Mengqi.
What's more gratifying is that Yuan Shao has never really regarded me as his opponent.
This will make it more convenient for our army.
Acted."
"Ming Gong's words are reasonable, but although Liu Xuande is petty, he has many methods.
Xuzhou has been under Liu Bei's rule for more than a year.
Liu Bei must have regained people's hearts.
Moreover, Ming Gong had no choice but to massacre Xuzhou, which already made the people of Xuzhou hate Ming Gong.
I am very worried.
It may not be that easy to send troops to Xuzhou like this."
But Cao Cao disagreed with this, waved his hand and said: "No one said that I will attack Xuzhou.
Ma Mengqi restrained Yuan Shao's main force.
But Yuan Tan in Qingzhou has already been ready to attack a certain family.
Now that we have the alliance letter, we turn around and attack Yuan Shao.
Tan will not violate the alliance between the two families."
"Ming Gong said that we should build the plank road openly and cross Chencang secretly."
Xun Yu couldn't help stroking his beard when he heard this, but he frowned and said: "Even so, Ming Gong wants to attack Yuan Tan and Liu Bei.
How can we be sure of it?"
" "Yuan Tan is strong on the outside and capable on the inside.
He has a temperament for killing, which is very different from his father.

He only needs a few false defeats, and he will get carried away and capture him in one battle.
By then, Liu Bei will be caught off guard when he rushes to Xuzhou with this power.
At least, in Yuan Shu's tomb Although the bones are useless, the 200,000 troops under his command can completely attract Liu Bei's main force to the southern front.
They can move down from the northern front and take Xuzhou like a bag."
"Ming Gong mentioned Yuan Shu at this time, but Ming Gong's previous deployment has been effective."
Sort out all the omissions in the plan and lay the foundation for Cao Cao's success in advance.
"However, Yuan Shu has coveted Xuzhou for a long time.
Hearing that a certain person was willing to form a secret alliance with him to attack Yuan Shao together, he secretly sent twenty stones of military rations to support him.
The purpose was naturally to let me and Yuan Shao fight in Guandu for a long time, but he didn't expect that Cao would lead him again.
Come to the Ma family and send troops to Guandong.
In this way, twenty shi of military rations will be used to attack Xuzhou."
"Yuan Shu has a small spirit.
If he knew what his lord had done, how could he not have done so?
Although Meng Qi is a talented man, if he suddenly stopped fighting with Yuan Shao, wouldn't Ming Gong be trapped in a situation of attack from the north and the south?"
"Wen Ruo," Cao Cao pondered for a while, his face became more serious, and he stroked his beard and said: "You know, Ma Mengqi was really attracted by the Cao family's covenant.
Ma Mengqi's desire to dominate the world is well known to the world.
His military power is unparalleled.
He sent troops to Guandong for the sake of the world.
It seems that the Cao family is taking advantage of him, but at the same time, he is not taking advantage of the Cao family."
After a pause, Cao Cao sighed again and said: "How can a man who plots the world suddenly stop his troops in the middle of a battle?
Not to mention Yuan Shao's arrogant temper, even if Yuan Shao really loses his face, Ma Mengqi will give up Jizhou's plumpness."
"land" Xun Yu heard this and shook his head.
Then his face became slightly ugly and he said: "Ming Gong, although the Cao family and the Ma family have restored their alliance, Ma Mengqi seems not to want to completely break away from the Han Dynasty and establish himself as king.
But the more this happens, the more terrifying it is. ” "Ma Chao has always had the ambition to spy on the world.
The New Deal and other reforms he created are sweeping the Han Dynasty with an irreversible trend.
After Yuan Shao is eliminated, his next target must be Duke Ming.
Moreover, judging from the overall trend , the Han Dynasty has been unified for many years, The territory has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and Ma Chao is not as strong as he was this year.
It is the autumn of annexation.
The troubled times cannot last long.
This is the saying that if we divide for a long time, we will unite.
This is the principle of deciding who is the real one by force.
As the leader of the Han Dynasty, this is imperative.
After a pause, Xun Yu continued: "Ma Chao's strength is well-known throughout the country and everyone is shocked.
Ming Gong must make preparations in advance."
Cao Cao nodded silently.
Since the rise of the Ma family, the expansion has been astonishing.
With both internal and external improvements, Ma Chao has combined vertically and horizontally to use all his means.
After several bloody battles, Shifentianxia has occupied three points.
This time, Yuan Shao's test led to Ma Mengqi's 400,000 troops, becoming the most powerful leader in the world.
An army of 400,000, what kind of figure is this?
If these soldiers are arranged into a square formation, they will need a radius of more than ten miles; if they are arranged into a marching column half a mile wide, then the queue can be arranged from Xingyang to Luoyang Every time he thought of this, Cao Cao felt envious and worried.
Looking back at the beginning of his Xingyi army's rebellion against Dong Zhuo, and until now, he finally secured his position in Yanzhou.
However, after years of war, the states and counties were in ruins, and four out of ten people died.
Although there were more than 300,000 soldiers on hand, the supply of food and grass was a big problem every time the troops were sent out.
Compared with the behemoth Ma Chao, he is simply a small ant at the feet of a giant elephant.

Therefore, Cao Cao tried every means to provoke a fight between Ma Chao and Yuan Shao.
He just wanted to profit from it and annex Xu and Yu states as soon as possible in order to gain the strength to compete with the two states.
However, although the wisdom and plan are good, the process is full of difficulties, hardships and worries, which can bring sorrow to the individual.
"My destiny is not up to me.
With the Cao family's current strength, I, Cao Cao, will definitely not give up easily."
Cao Cao is a hero after all.
After Xun Yu reminded him, instead of being discouraged, he started to fight.
Come, open your arms: "I will accept the wisdom of the world and control it with the Tao, and I can do anything":
