Chapter 492: The Fire Destroyed Boss Cao's Chance to Rule the World
"I never thought Prime Minister Cao would be like this, haha," Li Si's tone was full of mockery, his eyes were full of gloating, and full of sarcasm.
But Cao Cao was very angry. He naturally knew that he was wrong in doing these two things, but he didn't want others to say anything.
He also wants to save face.
Especially this little old man Li Si, Cao Cao really wanted to be angry.
"Ahem, eat, eat," Li Wu said with a laugh, fearing that the quarrel would start again. It was obvious that Cao Cao wanted to retort.
After hearing what the immortal said, the three of them didn't say anything and could only eat in silence. They also understood that the immortal didn't want them to quarrel.
They don't want to quarrel, really, mainly because they don't want to be laughed at by other dynasties. The biggest joke now is Cao Cao, and everyone is laughing at him.
Cao Cao himself was also numb.
"Later, Zhang Xiu naturally surrendered to your camp, Boss Cao, and you also gained a strategist like Jia Xu.
Don’t underestimate Jia Xu, the one who caused chaos in the country is Jia Xu.”
Cao Cao’s eyes widened. No, is Jia Xu so powerful?
"Little immortal, are you telling the truth? A poisonous scholar who disturbs the country, very good, this title is really good," Cao Cao stroked his beard with satisfaction. He didn't expect that Jia Xu was still hiding his shortcomings.
Jia Xu in front of the sky was dumbfounded. The immortal was going to roast him on the fire and make him explode.
Facing the burning gazes of the crowd, Jia Xu said nothing and remained silent.
Forget it, forget it. Things are different now than before. Let it be exposed.
"Hahaha, it's okay, it's okay. I suddenly thought of something about you, Boss Cao. Would you like to hear it?" Li Wu asked. It seemed a little funny and a little scary.
In that era, he was really a cannibal.
"Little immortal, please say, please say, I want to listen," Li Si was the most excited, he loved to listen.
Cao Cao's face darkened, but he didn't say anything. The immortal said this not to ask them whether they wanted to know or not, he just wanted to say it.
"Boss Cao, every time you listen to what Jia Xu and Cheng Yu say, you probably feel like a saint," Cao Cao frowned and looked at the little immortal when he heard this. Hmm, something is wrong. What does the little immortal mean by this?
The same is true for Li Si. No, doesn’t the little immortal want to tell about Cao Cao’s embarrassing stories?
"Boss Cao, what should we do? The war is intense, food and grass are scarce at the front, and there is a plague in the army.
After Li Wu finished saying this, Cao Cao and the other two were thinking about how to respond. The same was true for many people in front of the sky curtain. They were all wondering how to fight in such a situation.
Even people in the late Eastern Han Dynasty were considering how to respond.
"Ahem," Li Wu's cough interrupted their thoughts. "Guess how Jia Xu would respond?
Jia Xu said: Place the body upstream of the enemy's water source or use a catapult to throw it directly to the opposite side.
Boss Cao, please wave your hand to let Jia Xu go, and let Cheng Yu answer the question about food and fodder.
Cheng Yu said: There is a village with more than a hundred villagers less than two miles ahead.
Boss Cao, you said: I'm asking about food and fodder.
Cheng Yu said: There are more than a hundred villagers! "Li Wu covered his face and said, "Boss Cao, it's amazing that you have these two people around you.
Jia Xu hurt the harmony of heaven and hurt people, so why shouldn't he hurt Wen He, because Wen He was him.
Cheng Yu is damaging morality, damaging Mengde but not Zhongde, because Zhongde is Cheng Yu, hahahaha."
Cao Cao was numb.
The people in front of the sky curtain were also numb. No, no, what the hell was the little immortal talking about just now? Are Jia Xu and Cheng Yu beside Cao Cao so scary?
Late Eastern Han Dynasty: Everyone looked at Jia Xu and Cheng Yu with trembling eyes, especially those in Liu Bei's camp and Jiangdong camp.
No, they didn’t know that Jia Xu was so vicious. Fortunately, he didn’t use this method against them before. It was too terrible.
And there is Cheng Yu. There are more than 200 people in the village. How could they not know what it means? That is, uh, many people couldn't bear it and vomited directly. In an instant, there was an empty space next to Jia Xu and Cheng Yu.
Jia Xu and Cheng Yu looked at each other. Their reputation had been damaged and they were afraid that their future would be uneasy. The little immortal was really something, telling everything out loud.
If this situation really happens, let alone do it.
Sky
"The two people around you, Prime Minister Cao, are quite, quite good," Li Si didn't know what to say. It was the first time he met such people. What could he say? Fortunately, they were not enemies of their Great Qin, otherwise he would be in great trouble.
Especially if there's a plague or something like that, if that happens, it'll be life-threatening.
Cao Cao didn't want to say anything, because he had just learned about the two of them. Just like the little immortal said, indeed, compared to them, he was a great sage.
"Let's continue talking about your deeds, Boss Cao.
After the successful campaign against Zhang Xiu, Boss Cao expanded your sphere of influence to the north of the Yellow River.
Boss Cao, you finally have the confidence to challenge Yuan Shao.
In 199 AD, Boss Cao defeated your greatest enemy, Yuan Shao, at the Battle of Guandu.
Former friends eventually became enemies and finally went to war.
From then on, unifying the North has become an inevitable trend.
Boss Cao, when you were 54 years old, you appointed yourself Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty.
Boss Cao, who has already established himself as the overlord of the north, has decided to point his sword to the south and march south to conquer Jingzhou.
It can also be said that Boss Cao was a little too proud at that time, and what happened next was the Battle of Red Cliffs that I mentioned.
A big fire directly burned out your most likely chance of unifying the world, Boss Cao.
At that time, the army was invincible along the way, but it suffered a disastrous defeat in the Battle of Chibi and its ships were burned.
Boss Cao, you have no choice but to lead your troops to withdraw to Jiangling via Huarong Road by land, and then withdraw your troops back.
From then on, a three-way balance of power was formed.”
Cao Cao's face did not look good. She had just heard the immortal talk about the Battle of Red Cliffs.
"Little immortal, please tell me what the Battle of Red Cliffs was like," Cao Cao asked. He wanted to know what exactly happened.
Although it is true that it will not happen again in the future, who knows whether it will happen again? No one can say for sure.
And it was only a few years ago.
The barrage was also talking about the Battle of Red Cliffs. Many people felt sorry for Cao Cao, while many others felt that Cao Cao deserved it because he listened to Pang Tong and used the iron chain strategy, and now he was defeated.
“At that time, Sun Quan and Liu Bei formed an alliance.
Boss Cao, you led an army of 200,000 down the river. Sun Quan appointed Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu as the left and right commanders, and Lu Su as the captain of the supporting army.
Zhou Yu led 30,000 elite troops up the river to Xiakou, and joined forces with Liu Bei's army stationed in Fankou to advance westward along the Yangtze River, and met your army at Chibi.
At this time, many soldiers in your army, Boss Cao, had been infected with the disease, and you were defeated in the first battle.
They could only temporarily station troops in the Wulin area, while Zhou Yu and others waited on the south bank, and the two sides confronted each other across the river.
Zhou Yu took advantage of Boss Cao's pride and underestimated the enemy, and secretly spread Huang Gai's suggestion of using fire attack and designed a false surrender.
And Boss Cao, you did suffer heavy losses because you underestimated the enemy, but fortunately this has not happened now, after all, so many lives were lost," Li Wu sighed, she did not like war, no one should like war.
