Chapter 1598: Jiaozhou sends troops

Cao Cao subconsciously rubbed his forehead.

This action scared Xun Yu. He knew that Cao Cao had always had headaches, but after joining the Shenwu court, Cao Cao received a good rest and had no headaches for a long time.

Now, after Cao Cao went to war, he worked day and night, and his body was probably calling the police.

"Lord, do you have a headache?" Xun Yu asked nervously.

Cao Cao knew what Xun Yu was nervous, so he smiled and said, "If Wen doesn't have to worry, I'm just a moment of sorrow."

Xun Yu was still very worried. He knew Cao Cao's personality. Even if there was something wrong with Cao Cao's body, Cao Cao would not say it in person. As a subordinate, he could only observe Cao Cao's body secretly, give more advice or help Cao Cao share his worries, so as not to overwork.

Just like now, Xun Yu must share his worries for Cao Cao.

Xun Yu immediately put forward a suggestion and said: "Lord, my subordinates think that fishing boats can be recruited from around Lujiang and merged into one place. In this way, the ships will not be too bumpy and can withstand the wind and waves, and it is more feasible to transport troops across the river."

Xun Yu's method is similar to a chain warship, but it is a smaller version. There is no way to get it.

Cao Cao frowned. He also knew that there was only one way to transport troops across the river without a troop transport ship.

"Wenruo, please let Zhongkang send someone to handle this matter." Cao Cao immediately agreed with Xun Yu's suggestion.

Xun Yu immediately went out and ordered Xu Chu to implement it, and then immediately returned to Cao Cao's side. But as soon as he came back, Xun Yu saw Cao Cao's face full of confusion.

"Lord, what can you find?" Xun Yu asked.

Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu. He thought of a doubt just now, but he couldn't figure it out, so he said to Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo, I'm thinking that Sun Ce's son seems to be huge, but he has used all the power of the Eastern Wu. In this way, he has no reserve force at all! If he is defeated in my hands, wouldn't the Eastern Wu have no room for resistance? With Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's minds, how could they do such a desperate thing? Are they 100% sure to win?"

Faced with this question, Xun Yu also felt a sudden slap in his heart. He said thoughtfully: "From common sense, it is reasonable for Sun Ce to do his best to encircle and suppress all the troops of our army in the Eastern Wu. But the Eastern Wu is a local war and there is no need to make such a big fight. Today's Eastern Wu is not as good as before, but Liu Bei echoed each other in Yizhou. In this way, Sun Ce's son must have a conspiracy. Therefore, the lord has to be careful."

Before Xun Yu could finish speaking, Cao Cao's face changed.

"Lord, did you say something wrong?" Xun Yu was a little surprised.

Cao Cao didn't say anything, pointing directly to a direction on the map and said, "I finally understand Sun Ce's plan! He is not trying to make a desperate bet. He is attracting our army's attention! It's so convenient for a single army to break out here and catch our army off guard!"

Xun Yu followed the place Cao Cao pointed on the map, with two big characters "Jiaozhi".

Well, on the map of the Han Dynasty, Jiaozhou does not exist. The so-called Jiaozhou governor was self-proclaimed by Shi Xie and was only recognized by the Eastern Wu. After Liu Yu ascended the throne, he retained Jiaozhi, Nanhai, Guilin, Panyu and other counties unchanged and did not establish Jiaozhou.

"Not good! Shi Xie!" Xun Yu was shocked.

Xun Yu knew that Shi Xie, an immortal guy, surrendered to the Eastern Wu. Shi Xie had existed when the heroes were united, and he had been very honest for so many years. Shi Xie, who had been a local emperor in Jiaozhou a few years ago, surrendered to the Eastern Wu. Like Sun Ce, he tried his best to strangle Liu's army, which attracted all the attention of Liu's army. If Shi Xie had a military force in Jiaozhou, crossed the Nanling Mountains, and fought to the southern counties of Jingzhou, with the current military strength, it would be really hard to resist.

After Xun Yu lost his composure, he returned to calm and said, "Lord, from the perspective of his subordinates, Shi Xie has always adhered to the strategy of protecting himself from the right and avoiding the real and the weak. His subordinates believe that his smartest thing should be to remain neutral and watch the tiger fight, rather than sending troops to Jingzhou."

Indeed, judging from Xun Yu's eyesight, it would be absolutely unwise to send troops, and it would not be beneficial at all. Instead, it would attract the attention of the Shenwu court and eventually cut off his own way of retreat.

But Cao Cao shook his head and said, "No! I will inform Pang Tong immediately and let him lead a group of troops back to the southern part of Jingzhou! Beware of Shi Xie's old man!"

Cao Cao is a treacherous person. He will not put any hope on the premise that the enemy dare not do it. Since he has thought of it, he must do it immediately.

Seeing that Cao Cao was so determined, Xun Yu did not continue to refute. In the overall situation, Cao Cao's ability to predict is stronger than Xun Yu. Xun Yu believed this.

When Xun Yu was about to go down and arrange, Cao Cao stretched out a hand and said to him: "I'm afraid it's too late!"

Xun Yu looked confused.

At this time, Xu Chu rushed in quickly, with a small roll of white cloth in his hand, and bowed and said, "Report to the lord, there is an emergency military situation in southern Jingzhou!"

The white cloth in Xu Chu's hand was brought from southern Jingzhou with a carrier pigeon dedicated to Liu Jun.

Feige's letters have been used to perfection by Liu Jun. Almost every general who went to the expedition will bring Feige with him to facilitate the transmission of messages. In addition to being affected by majeure factors such as the weather, the stability of Feige's letters is still possible. Thanks to the efforts of the "Dark Master" and has spent a lot of effort to cultivate a large number of carrier pigeons.

When he heard that it was an emergency military situation, Cao Cao immediately snatched the white cloth from Xu Chu's hand and stared at the contents on it with wide eyes.

Xun Yu also came to Cao Cao to watch.

After a look, the content on the white cloth was written about what Cao Cao and Xun Yu had just said.

The prefect of Guiyang reported that Jiaozhi thief soldiers Hui led 30,000 bandit soldiers to rush out of Nanling, and led several cities in a row, and the troops headed straight towards Guiyang.

There is only so much written on the white cloth, but Cao Cao also saw the danger. Jiaozhou Shihui led 30,000 troops into Guiyang County, and Guiyang County did not have enough troops to defend.

Not to mention that Guiyang does not have enough troops, even Lingling, Changsha and Wuling do not have too much troops.

In fact, Shi Xie did not intend to send troops at this time, and he still wanted to wait and see. But Sun Quan was such a clever person, Shi Xie could not escape Sun Quan's eyes from anything he thought. The military situation in the Eastern Wu Dynasty was tense at the moment, so Shi Xie could not continue to wait and see.

Sun Quan sent three waves of envoys in a row to inquire about military affairs and told Shi Xie tactfully that it was time to send troops. Otherwise, Sun Quan would not be polite to Shi Xie.

Shi Xie could only do what Sun Quan said, and let his three sons lead a total of 30,000 troops out of Nanling.

Thirty thousand troops almost emptied Jiaozhou's family background!

Xun Yu felt that things were going big. The immortal Shi Xie in Jiaozhou was really brave and sent troops without fear of death. After being a turtle with a head-retard, Xun Yu really couldn't imagine that Shi Xie would be stuck at this time. This was a very bad behavior of stabbing in the back.
