Chapter 95

Top strategists like Jia Xu usually don't speak clearly.

Know what you know, don’t know what you don’t know.

Because Cao Ang has the experience of later generations, so this can still be understood.

Jia Xu was telling Cao Ang that it was time to accept it as soon as it was good. He didn't know how far the war against Soochow would go. Now it seems that he doesn't need too much credit.

If Cao Cao doesn't die, his son will never be able to go up, and the son will come to an end.

What's the use of more credit, it can only make you more dazzling, and even Cao Cao will target you in the end.

If it wasn't Jia Xu, I would definitely not be able to make this suggestion, because Jia Xu is the one who knows people's hearts best.

He knew that because of the impression of Cao Chong before, Cao Cao was very optimistic about Cao Ang, and cherished it after many years of loss, so Cao Ang was Cao Cao's No. 1 choice for his son.

Because of this, Cao Ang doesn't need more credit, he just needs to be able to protect himself.

The decisions of the world are nothing more than those of the top figures, so the changes in the world are nothing less than the hearts of the people.

If Cao Ang is so valued by Cao Cao and has made great contributions, then his status will even tremble with Cao Cao.

Who is Cao Cao?

You don't have to think too badly, after all, you have the support of the people all over the world, but you can't think too well.

Cao Cao is a hero with great personality. Don't think that you can manipulate him. When Cao Cao feels that the general situation of the world is out of his control, he may have extreme actions.

At that time, don't think that Cao Cao's behavior can be judged by what he has said and who he has loved.

Cao Chong is indeed very important, but the most important thing in Cao Cao's heart is the world. Cao Cao can't let Cao Cao think you are too evil.

"Sir, how should it be maintained?"

"Young master can listen to it, I am very relieved."

Jia Xu smiled, "At this time, when things are changing, the young master is using his army to contain Soochow in Chibi. The other two young masters must be very envious, so they can let go and let everything go according to the prime minister's plan." .”

Cao Ang understood that it is not good to prevent Cao Cao from participating in the strategy of conquering Soochow.

If it didn't go well before, of course he would use Soochow to make a fuss and get the most credit.

But now it seems that the plan is going smoothly, which is beyond Jia Xu's expectations.

Therefore, now that he has overwhelmed the other two sons, there is no need to overwhelm Cao Cao.

"Sir, according to my judgment, if my father conquers Jiangdong, he will definitely lose!"

"Oh?"

Jia Xu didn't know why Cao Ang was so sure, but based on his observations, Cao Ang would not say such things for no reason.

What Cao Ang meant was that the conquest of Jiangdong is known to be defeated, so should I take action to change everything?
Jia Xu pondered for a moment, then replied: "My lord, please be patient. After all, the struggle in the world is not about the enemy, but more about me."

"So, I understand."

Cao Ang nodded slightly, "Nowadays, the struggle in the world lies more with me, and with the internal structure of our army. Even if we conquer Jiangdong and lose the army, it will not change the general trend of the world. The focus should be on the inside."

It can be said that Jia Xu's keen judgment is unprecedented.

Generally, a good strategist will teach you how to fight Soochow, but Zhuge Liang can only fight the enemy to the extreme.

But Jia Xu can see further steps. Suppose you destroy Jiangdong, how can you face Cao Cao?

There are few strategists who can think at this level in history.

……

With their discussion, the progress of the water village has been accelerated again, but the outcome of the Battle of Jiangdong has not yet been determined.

Who knows what will happen in the end, the destruction of Jiangdong may not be of much benefit to Cao Ang, but Cao Cao must gain some results in Jiangdong this trip, otherwise he will never stop.

So there are two roads before Cao Ang, watching Cao Cao's defeat, or helping to destroy Jiangdong?
Jia Xu's hinted opinion is to let Cao Ang watch the defeat, because this is the most beneficial to Cao Ang. Cao Cao's defeat can reflect the value of Cao Ang. If everyone wins, the gold content of Cao Ang's military exploits will also be reduced.

But Cao Ang didn't want to sit back and watch Cao Cao's defeat. From the perspective of the world, such a large loss is not good for the world.

Jia Xu is vicious enough, but Cao Ang is not as vicious as him.

"Let me watch Soochow burn down the warship and then kill Jiangling?"

For the past two days, Cao Ang was struggling with this matter, when Lu Su came again.

This time, Lu Su should have come here for the exchange of military generals. Liu Bei took Zhang Liao, so he must give it to Jiangdong for the alliance, and Sun Quan would exchange Zhang Liao.

Sitting in front of Cao Ang again, Lu Su couldn't understand this general Zhonglang more and more.

This time, Xin'er was standing beside Cao Ang with a green sword in his hand.

"Young master, you..."

"What concerns does Mr. Zijing have?"

Lu Su glanced at Xin'er, and said a little embarrassedly: "The two armies are discussing, you don't have to listen, Miss?"

What is he afraid of?
This time, Lu Su had a bargaining chip to exchange with Gan Ning, but no one thought about exchanging his heart....

Cao Ang knew his concerns, and said with a smile: "Although Xin'er belongs to me at this time, not yours, after all... the words of the Lord of Jiangdong don't count?"

"Then I'll say it, and the young master must have thought that this time we hope to exchange Zhang Liao for General Gan."

Lu Su came to exchange Gan Ning, but as for Xin'er, no one really thought about it.

Originally, Gan Ning was difficult to change, but Cao Ang had someone in his hand, so why should they change?

But now that they are really qualified to discuss, they have no intention of exchanging their hearts, and Sun Quan only cares about Gan Ning.

Cao Ang asked Xin'er to stand aside and listen again, which made Lu Su very embarrassed.

"Mr. Zijing, do you think it's a sure thing?"

"Young master, change one for another. General Zhang Liao has been famous for a long time, so you still have to hesitate?"

Since Lu Su felt that the exchange would be successful, then Cao Ang let him be surprised that the initiative is not in their hands.

"Mr. Zijing, how to settle accounts is up to you. You know my current situation. Changing Zhang Liao is useless."

"Gan Ning is a bargaining chip in my hand. If I change back to Zhang Liao, I have nothing to do."

"So, I don't think your sincerity is enough. If you exchange one for one, I won't do it."

Actually, he rejected it outright and neatly, so he didn't want to change it?

Lu Su was dumbfounded, he felt that this should be possible, Zhang Liao's reputation was far greater than Gan Ning's.

And Cao Ang let him see his willful side, so what can you do if you don't change it!
"Young master, if the prime minister knows about this..."

"Then I will kill Gan Ning first, do you want to take a gamble?"

If they were replaced one-on-one, then Cao Cao would still have many soldiers and generals, and at most it would be a pain for a while, but Jiangdong could not afford to lose.

In the overall situation, it is Cao Cao's advantage to exchange generals. Although it sounds a bit unkind, it is definitely not a loss.

Lu Su became anxious: "Young master, if you don't change this, what should you do?"

"Didn't I ask you to show a little sincerity? I haven't seen it so far. If I don't even have this sincerity, I won't exchange with you. I have nothing to do with any soldiers."
