Three Kingdoms: Cao Chong's will, in fact, my eldest brother is not dead!

Chapter 56
The news also reached Cao Zhi, and it was still he and Yang Xiu who discussed.

It's just that they have more news, and they have also learned the news released by Zhang Yun.

"Dezu, whose scheme do you think this is, Jia Xu?"

"It must have been his plan. This person has always had good plans, but don't forget that it was Jia Xu who made the eldest son fall into Wancheng."

Yang Xiu also didn't believe that Cao Ang was so powerful that he could seize food and grass with one plan.

However, it doesn't matter whether they believe it or not, in a contest of this nature, winning is winning.

Otherwise, why are the princes recruiting talents? It is the greatest benefit for them to be in the top position, and they should not compete with the counselors for glory.

But Jia Xu is by no means a person who likes to show off, and they didn't realize this.

"Then what should I do now, if I let my father know..."

Cao Zhi panicked, "No, we can't keep that Zhang Yun anymore!"

He was afraid, Cao Cao's style, as a son, naturally knew, if there was any bad impression because of this incident, then it would be difficult for him to have a chance to fight for the throne in the future.

But Yang Xiu did not agree to kill Zhang Yun: "My lord, Xiu thinks it's inappropriate to kill Zhang Yun."

"What's wrong?"

"It's useless to kill him. His thousands of plays are also where people's hearts lie."

Yang Xiu is still smart in this regard, "If the young master kills him, what should we do with these thousands of people? We haven't talked about their family members, and things will be difficult to handle at that time. It's better to win over them to show the young master. mind."

Cao Zhi thought for a moment before nodding: "That's right, but I'm always worried that my father will find out about him."

"Young Master, if you want to succeed, you must take risks. Zhang Yun is also the general of the Jingzhou Navy. With his support, when the battle with Soochow begins in the future, you will have a bargaining chip, so it will not be useless."

"Also, even if the prime minister finds out about this matter, it will be nothing."

"The prime minister will even help the young master to cover it up, and the young master can control this navy, and then show his military exploits, which will be more conducive to strengthening his strength in the future."

Yang Xiu also believes that strength is the most important, mainly because today's world is too miserable.

It doesn't matter what identity you have, the most important thing is to control your own strength, but anyone with a little brain will not understand.

However, they still have to fight for the status of the son. Cao Ang disdains it, but Yang Xiu doesn't.

Because for a celebrity like him, status and reputation are good things. Look at Liu Bei, a title of "Uncle Emperor" can be bluffed and deceived, which is not even a title of title.

"Okay, as Yi Dezu said, but now, my elder brother..."

"It's hard for us to start now, so we can only wait and see."

"Look at what?"

"Once the water fortress is built, the prime minister will lead the army to the south, and there will be more opportunities at that time. If we make a move at this time, it will be big...they are already prepared, and it is really easy for trouble to happen."

Yang Xiu is still smart, his decision is at least reliable, and he will definitely not bear to mess with Cao Cao again.

Now Cao Cao doesn't fully understand this matter, but if Cao Cao knows, the situation will be similar to Yang Xiu's guess.

But the two of them, compared with Cao Pi, still lack wisdom.

Being smart doesn't mean being wise. Cao Pi began to restrain himself after being swayed by Cao Ang.

Cao Pi knows how to advance and retreat, and at the same time, he is not so anxious about competing for the crown prince, but the two who are more talented and famous pay more attention to reputation.

……

Naturally, Cao Ang didn't care what kind of son he was, and he even thought it would be better to entrust someone else with his son at this time.

Giving this title to yourself is completely counterproductive. As long as you have the army and food in your hands, it doesn't matter what it is, and it's not just a matter of words.

Now, he is worried about his own strength, he must have some strength in his hands.

These dozen or so guards alone can't kill the sky. Their force value is actually very strong, but in the struggle for power, the bravery of warriors is of little use. Even the army uses "power".

Only when you let those famous and powerful families think highly of you will you support yourself. This is a political game.

But you also need to be capable and capable, so that they will value you and support you.

What does it mean to be capable?
Needless to say about military exploits, subordinates must have their own strength, and only with "truth" can they have "famous".

Jia Xu helped him think of a way, how to get more credit from the Battle of Chibi, of course, it was not Jia Xu who was thinking about it himself, he had also discussed it with Cao Ang.

Famous generals, counselors, Cao Ang must have.

But that's still the problem. Those who should stand in line have already joined the two young masters. Those who haven't stood in line will not easily support you now. You have to create your own strength.

At night, Jia Xu was still planning. He stared at the map on the wall for a long time without saying a word.

Cao Ang was also worried, his subordinates hadn't considered subduing Wenpin's group yet, even if they could, today's words had convinced them, but it was still not enough.

What are Wenpin and Cai Mao?

It cannot be said that they have thousands of people under their command. If they can all have the combat power of tiger and leopard cavalry, it will be enough.

However, the tiger and leopard cavalry are no ordinary army, they are the tiger and wolf division carefully cultivated by Cao Cao!
"My lord, this Eastern Wu is not easy to deal with. Even if the prime minister's army comes personally, it may not be able to win."

"I also know that, sir, what I want may not be a complete victory."

"Oh?"

Jia Xu was slightly taken aback, this provided him with a brand new way of thinking, yes, what Cao Ang wanted was not to dominate Jiangdong, but to gain credit from Jiangdong...

At this moment, Cai Mao outside asked for instructions: "My lord, there is an urgent military report!"

"Enter!"

Cao Ang called Cai Mao in. Cai Mao glanced at Jia Xu and then at Cao Ang.

Seeing that Cao Ang's expression didn't change, he said directly: "My lord, on the other side of the river... it seems that reinforcements have arrived."

"What, they are still adding troops here, aren't they sending food and grass?"

"It doesn't seem to be that simple. Our people probably explored it, and there are about thousands of them, all of whom are elite!"

Thousands of elites came unexpectedly. In this era, thousands of elites are no joke!
Those who can keep thousands of elites all the time are just a few princes with solid foundations. The others are just recruiting some brave and bandits from the village. Even Cao Cao came here in the same way.

"Who is the general? Does he have a banner?"

"Because it's night, I can't see clearly."

Cao Ang nodded slightly, and didn't ask any more questions. He ordered, "Make the river more vigilant, and we'll investigate tomorrow."

Cai Hao promised to go out, and Jia Xu said slowly: "Lv Meng is newly defeated, and it is inevitable to change generals or increase manpower. It is impossible for Soochow to sit idly by... Well, it seems that there is a way."

"Sir, what can I do?"

"You said, let me find a way to get more credit for you, it seems that I have to be here in Chibi!"

Jia Xu's eyes rarely brightened, "It's not easy, but it's worth trying."
