613 The Second Army Meets 2
Taishi Ci also knew in her heart that General Xiahou Dun would definitely not make a decision on such a big thing, and he had to agree to it before giving in. Of course, Taishi Ci also believed that Cao Cao would definitely let go. At this time, Cao Cao's strength was much worse than Lu Ning, and he did not dare to turn against Lu Ning easily; turning against him means war, and Cao Cao also knew in her heart that if he was really attacked by Lu Ning several times, he would be unable to resist.
Taishici said: "General Xiahou, then you can inform me as soon as possible. I am still in a hurry to rush back here!"
After receiving the report from the messenger sent by Xiahou Xiahou Dun and Cao Chun, Cao Cao didn't believe it. Lu Ning mobilized the troops and made such a big move just to teach Liu Bei a lesson. He said that he would help. This was definitely a fool. Lu Ning sent Taishi Ci's army to infiltrate the jurisdiction with a purpose, but was doing a very important thing. Otherwise, why would Lu Ning do this? Unless Lu Ning's head was flooded.
Xun You beside Cao Cao said, "Lord, although we don't understand what Lu Ning means, how could we send General Taishi Ci to our jurisdiction and really attack Liu Bei; if Taishi Ci really doesn't want to fight with us and just borrowing the opportunity, then we should not start a war easily, after all, we can't turn against Lu Ning at this time."
Cheng Yu said: "Gongda, Taishici brought 15,000 war horses this time. If we can leave these war horses behind, it will improve the strength of our army. Could it be that we just let Taishici go back like this?"
Xun You said: "Zhongde, can our army resist the attack of Lu Ning's army? The Lu Ning's army can send troops from Donglai, Liyang, Xingyang, Guandu, and Guangling, so we will face the attack of five armies. Besides, even if we keep Taishici's 5,000 army, how many war horses will be left after the decisive battle? How much losses will our army have?"
Xiahou Yuan said: "Lord, if we really want to keep Taishici's army, then we must be mentally prepared for the losses of tens of thousands of soldiers. If we want to keep Taishici's army, we must have ten times the strength and make plans to have half of the losses. Otherwise, we should consider Gongda's suggestions."
Everyone knew in their hearts that Xiahou Yuan was a person who had truly fought with the Lu Ning army and had the most say in the strength of the Lu Ning army.
Just as Cao Cao was discussing with his advisers during the march, Lu Ning's messenger arrived in Xuchang and did not see Cao Cao, so Xun Yu arranged someone to take him to come up with him.
In fact, Lu Ning's messenger lurked to Cao Cao's Xuchang, but if Taishici's army was not blocked, the messenger would not see Lao Cao. Now that he heard that Taishici's army was blocked by Lao Cao's army, he immediately went to ask for a meeting.
After Lu Ning's messenger handed the letter to Cao Cao, he said, "Prime Minister Cao, my lord said that he doesn't want to go to war with your army for the time being. It's not too late to fight when your strength develops for a while and you have the ability to fight against our army. If the Prime Minister really wants to make things difficult for our army this time, please prepare for our army."
This is a naked threat and intimidation, and I am here to ask for advice. Since I am still so arrogant, how can Cao Cao accept it? Cao Cao is a person who is not intimidated, and he is even less afraid of war.
Cao Cao said: "Does that boy Lu Ning want to intimidate me?"
The messenger said: "Prime Minister Cao, this is not intimidation, it is indeed a fact. General Taishi Ci just used the way to punish Liu Bei with a small punishment, without any intention. Of course, if the Prime Minister thinks it is a threat, then our army will not be afraid of any consequences; now the army in Donglai, Liyang, Xingyang, Guandu, Guangling and other places are all ready, it depends on how Prime Minister Cao decides."
Seeing that Cao Cao's face turned pale, Xun You was afraid that Cao Cao would not be able to control his anger, so he immediately said, "Lord, since Taishi Ci's army is just a way to borrow, let's go to the net and let Taishi Ci's army go for the time being."
Although Cao Cao was very angry, he still had to consider the consequences of going to war with Lu Ning. As an excellent politician and military strategist, Cao Cao knew very well about this.
Cao Cao said: "Is Taishi Ci's army really just to teach Liu Bei a lesson?"
The messenger smiled and said, "Prime Minister Cao, that's true. Who made my lord dislike Liu Bei? Knowing that Liu Bei had seized the Prime Minister's territory, he would let Taishi Ci lead his army to punish Liu Bei for a small punishment."
Cao Cao thought about it over and over again, but in the end he ended up ending humiliation. For the sake of overall consideration, he could only let Taishi Ci's army pass. This is impossible, who made Lu Ning so powerful?
Cao Cao said lightly: "I'll order General Xiahou to let Taishici's army pass."
After the messenger left, Lu Ning's messenger said respectfully: "Prime Minister Cao, thank you!"
Cao Cao did not say anything, but continued to order: "Tell the three armies to prepare for combat and closely monitor the movements of Taishici's army; if there is any abnormal movement in Taishici's army, attack immediately."
After Xiahou Dun and Cao Chun received Cao Cao's order, they asked the army to make way for Taishi Ci's army to pass through. Of course, Taishi Ci did not dare to be careless and asked all the soldiers under him to prepare for combat to prevent accidents. All the soldiers of the Feixiong Army were crossbows and arrows, and they were ready to bear the unexpected events.
Before Taishi Ci set out, Ju Su told Taishi Ci that Lao Cao would not usually start a war easily. At this time, the war with Lao Cao and Lu Ning's army would not benefit, and would only accelerate Cao Cao's demise. Ju Su calculated this very clearly.
Taishici's army successfully passed through Cao Cao's defense zone, and Taishici's army did not make any moves. Cao Cao's army closely monitored the Taishici's army's every move. To put it bluntly, it was to watch Taishici's army slowly pass through the jurisdiction.
After Taishici's army returned to Xingyang City safely, they met Xu Shu and introduced Xu Shu to Ju Su; Xu Shu had heard of Taishici's name for a long time, and knew that Taishici made a name for great reputation in fighting against the Xiongnu, Xianbei and others. Now no one in the world does not know the name of General Taishici. Taishici was also awarded the title of national hero by Lu Ning; in the jurisdiction of Lu Ning, there were not many people with the title of national hero, only Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Taishici, Xu Huang, Li You, Tian Chou, Gao Shun, Dian Wei, and others, and the rest did not reach the level of national heroes.
Not to mention Xu Shu's name, Ju Su is the two famous scholars in Jizhou. His name has long been famous all over the world. After following Lu Ning, he also made remarkable achievements. All scholars in the world understand this.
After Taiming Ci's army left, Cao Cao finally received information that Taishi Ci's army sneaked into the jurisdiction for one person, and the man named Shan Fu left Runan City to cooperate with the single case value.
For a small foot who was not famous, Lu Ning used 5,000 thousand flying bear troops to sneak in, and also let 100 personal guards sneak into Runan City to rescue Shan Fu. This made Cao Cao feel unthinkable. Shan Fu should be a person with a big name, otherwise how could Lu Zhun have taken such a big trouble? Ying Jiao was very clear about this.
When Cao Cao asked the people around him that when he knew what kind of person Shan Fu was, no one could tell, and he didn't know anything about Shan Fu at all. It's not surprising that Shan Fu was the name that Xu Shu only used after he escaped from prison. Who knows this world! If Lu Ning was not a time traveler, of course, it wouldn't be possible to know him.
