Chapter 593 The goal is determined

Cao Cao was placed in the celebration banquet in the official residence, which instantly turned into a seminar. The people led by Cheng Yu disliked Lu Ning very much and advocated attacking Lu Ning. However, Xun Yu and his uncle and nephew, as well as many civil and military officials, were still scared of Lu Ning's strength and did not agree with sending troops to attack Lu Ning at this time. In Xun You's words, Lu Ning was in the Big Bear, and he was surrounded by Xiong Ba. As long as he did not invade his territory, he would live in peace. Once someone invades his territory, he would fight hard until the opponent was completely killed.

Liu Ye has a good technical research. According to historical records, he invented the chariot under Cao Cao and made great contributions to Cao Cao's army's conquests everywhere. Although he is also a high-ranking official under Cao Cao, the intelligence he obtained from Jinyang City was extremely capable of, and the weapons and equipment he produced were beyond the reach of other princes. In the premise of being unable to compare with his economic strength and not being superior in military affairs, if he blindly sent troops to attack Lu Ning, he would undoubtedly smash the stone with an egg, and there would be no good results.

Liu Ye said cautiously: "Lord, the weapons and equipment under Lu Ning are indeed better than our army. Wen Ruo Da and all generals know this. If our army wants to defeat Lu Ning's army, it must work harder on weapons and equipment and find ways to improve the performance of our army's weapons and equipment, so that it is possible to defeat Lu Ning. Otherwise, it would not be very useful to rely solely on the number of soldiers. I heard that when the Lu Ning army fought a decisive battle with the enemy, the soldiers under Lu Ning's army could hit the opponent with one sword in their hands, and the enemy soldiers could not hit the opponent with one blow at all. In many cases, they had to kill several times in a row to achieve the effect. But the soldiers of Lu Ning's army are not idiots, just waiting for you to chop."

What Liu Ye said was that as long as the generals who fought with Lu Ning's army understood, they had experienced such things. In particular, Xiahou Yuan was even more scared. He had personally seen the performance of weapons and equipment in the hands of Lu Ning's soldiers. He also specially made several weapons in the hands of Lu Ning's soldiers on the battlefield. Xiahou Yuan compared the weapons in the hands of Lu Ning's soldiers who had been brought back from the battlefield with those in his hands. He found that he was a general, but the performance of weapons in his hands was not as good as those used by ordinary soldiers in Lu Ning's soldiers. This made Xiahou Yuan very moved. Now when Liu Ye said that, he really wanted to go over and hug Liu Ye and kiss him.

Cao Cao agreed after hearing this, but finding the problem is useless, and there must be a way to solve it! He looked up at Liu Ye, and saw that he was confident, he smiled and said, "Ziyang, if you have any good solutions, just tell me, don't hold it, don't worry, say it, don't blame you if you say it wrong."

Liu Ye felt a little excited. He saw that he really had a trick in his heart and could not hide it at all. Before he could even say it, he let him guess it. "My lord, it is very difficult to get the production technology under the Lu Ning system, and ordinary people will not make much use of it. But I recently heard that Gongda's subordinates have developed an important chess piece, and his ability is very great. Can he get Lu Ning's various production technologies first? In that case, our army can produce better weapons and equipment."

Liu Ye thought it was too simple. Even if he got the production technology under the Lu Ning system, he could not produce products as good as Lu Ning based on his current technical level. Lu Ning has entered industrial production, and Cao Cao's jurisdiction is still feudal agricultural production. Moreover, there are many Confucian scholars suppressing craftsmen. How can this be compared?

Cao Cao looked at Liu Ye, and he knew very well who was talking about? But this person could not be known to more people, even those who were sitting could not be known to him. Otherwise, years of hard work would be in vain. "Zi Yang, let's talk about this later. Let's discuss the subsequent target of the army."

Xiahou Yuan was determined to avenge his revenge and immediately stepped out and said, "Lord, I suggest attacking Wancheng. If Wancheng is occupied by Lu Ning, our army's defense line will be even more fragmented and we can no longer defend. Moreover, after capturing Wancheng, we can still look at Jingyang and use troops to Jingzhou at any time. Jingzhou is also a very wealthy and place, and our army is bound to win."

Xun Yu stepped out again and said, "Lord, I agree to attack Wancheng. That place is really important. Zhang Xiu in Wancheng is not scary. What is scary is that his advisers Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe, who are extremely intelligent and difficult to deal with. It is best to subdue this person first, and Wancheng will win without fighting. If we fight against Wancheng, our army will suffer a lot. After all, Zhang Xiu also has 50,000 Western Liang Iron Cavalry and tens of thousands of infantry in his hands. Once Zhang Xiu sticks to the city, it will be difficult for our army to fight and can only rely on casualties to take over."

Xun You also said: "Lord, Wen Ruo is right. Last time, General Miaocai also fell into Jia Wenhe's conspiracy. This person's plan is really a dragon but not a tail, and it is difficult to understand. Moreover, once Jia Wenhe uses the plan, once it succeeds, it will cause fatal damage to the other party, and it is difficult to have another chance to turn over. It is better to send someone to persuade him. It is the best way to recruit Jia Wenhe to accept it."

Seeing that Cao Cao's main counselors did not agree with his opinion, Cheng Yu felt very depressed, but he was dissatisfied. He sighed and said, "Lord, you have no objection to send someone to recruit Jia Wen and me, but whether to attack Lu Ning or Zhang Xiu first, please think twice. If Lu Ning develops again, then no one can do anything to him. What Lu Ning does in his jurisdiction is not a serious crime, and even killing him with nine tribes will not relieve his hatred."

After hearing this, Cao Ren laughed and said, "Zhongde, I heard that Lu Ning's hometown is in Jianning, but there is information we have obtained there. There is no one in his hometown. The locals don't know that there are people like Lu Ning, how can they kill him nine clans? Isn't this a waste?" Cao Ren's teasing made all the civil and military officials under Cao Cao laugh, making the whole depressing atmosphere become much warmer.

Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang saw that Cao Ren actually joked on such an occasion, so he boldly said: "Zhongde, as we know, Lu Ning's current life experience is still a mystery? There are so many princes in the world, why are you just staring at Lu Ning? Does Lu Ning have any deep hatred and you that cannot be resolved?"

Cheng Yu's face changed drastically after hearing this. If it weren't for Cao Cao's eldest son, he would have cursed. "Young Master, I have no grudges with Lu Ning. I have never even seen him, and he has never offended me. I just think that this person is a treacherous minister and a rebellious son of my great man. He should have resolved him first. This has nothing to do with personal grudges."

Cao Cao didn't want his son to offend Cheng Yu, so he immediately said, "Our army rested for a while. After the rest, we should defeat Wancheng first. As for Lu Ning, it's not too late to wait for the opportunity to fight. In addition, Gong Ren, a laborer, went to Wancheng to see if he could convince Jia Wenhe and let him join my men to serve." Cao Cao was a very opinionated person. Once he figured out the situation, he could make a decision quickly. This was very difficult and was also the true nature of a generation of heroes.

Dong Zhao left the list and said, "Sir, Lord, and try to complete the task."
