"Ask who?" Long Xiang smiled mysteriously: "Can't Zijing guess?"

Lu Su stroked his beard and asked back: "Apart from our people, only Wu Jing's opponent Xiahou Yuan is left at the scene. You wouldn't want to ask Cao Jun, right?"

"What about that?" Long Xiang spread his hands.

"How to ask? Catch Cao's tongue?" Lu Su asked and answered: "Don't forget that most of your first batch of Thousand Mileage Miles were taken away by Lei and Tang generals, and Wu Jing's entire army was wiped out and lost cover. Let's go back

Scouts are easily discovered by Cao's army."

"Haha." Long Xiang patted Lu Su's arm and joked: "Zi Jing's temperament has become a little anxious recently. Could it be that he is lonely in guarding the new city? I believe that time will give us an answer, and Cao Jun's performance will also give us an answer."

Lu Su: "What do you say?"

Long Xiang replied: "Cao Cao successfully plotted against Wu Jing and wiped out 20,000 new troops in Jiangdong. If Lei Xu and Tang Wu failed, Cao's army would definitely take steady steps and consume Zhou Yu. If Cao's army suddenly became anxious, it would mean that their military rations were tight.

, need to win quickly to leave Huainan."

“It makes sense.”

Seeing Lu Su's beard-stroking, Long Xiang continued to add: "In fact, there is a simpler way to let the cavalry battalion inquiry towards Shaopi. Cao's army has so many warships, so it must find a place with wide and stable water to park.

And only Shaobi is the most suitable in the north.”

Lu Su agreed deeply and stroked his beard and nodded at Long Xiang.

"I saw Yun Qi calm and looked like a prince. If Uncle Liu can achieve great achievements in the future, you will be the pillar of the sky that supports the Han Dynasty."

"Don't leave. I have many capable people under my command, so what is Optimus Prime?"

Long Xiang added in his heart, why don’t he say that he is so powerful? He immediately added: “I have already said that we are our own people, so don’t praise each other. Yesterday, Zhang Liao also withdrew. It seems that the danger in Hefei has been lifted. Zijing

Have a drink with me tonight?”

"No need?"

Lu Su was stunned when he heard this and quickly gave a reason: "Although Zhang Liao withdrew his troops, he could still go back and return. I will still go back to the new city to guard. Maybe I will pick up another Chen Wu?"

"What do you think of Chen Wu? You can pick it up at will?" Long Xiang hooked Lu Su's shoulder and walked towards the main hall with a smile: "It's nothing to delay the night? If it really doesn't work, go back after dinner, otherwise today's banquet will be

Isn’t it just a waste of preparation?”

"That's right, Wu Jing left in a hurry."

Lu Su nodded and suddenly took a few steps and stopped.

"how?"

"You said that if Cao Cao knew that the grain ship was burned, would he be so angry that he couldn't eat?"

Long Xiang smiled leisurely: "You can't eat? The grain ships are burned. It's good to have food for you. Let's ignore them. In short, Hefei will definitely eat better than him."

"Haha, that's right."

On the same night, Cao Cao had not started eating with his rice bowl yet, but Xiahou Yuan and Zhang He happened to report.

Hearing the words of Xiahou Yuanliu setting up an ambush, forcing Wu Jing to lead his troops to abandon the ship and escape, and the pursuit and death were quite fruitful, Cao Cao couldn't help but show his pride on his face, saying that no matter how wonderful the plan Guo Jia or Jia Xu gave, he finally implemented it.

It also depends on your own arrangement.

Perfect, flawless.

Because Cao Cao felt secretly happy, he felt sweet when he chewed the white rice, but the following report on bad news from Zhang He was shocked and couldn't stop him from talking.

"What did you say?"

"The last general suspects that Chen Wu colluded with Mei Cheng, not only attacked and burned our grain ships, but also burned the warships left by Wu Jing."

"What Wu Jing's warship? That's my ship! My ship!"

With a bang, Cao Cao shouted hysterically and angrily held his rice bowl on the table.

Thinking of the food that will be gone for the next month, Cao Cao held the bowl with his left hand against the table, and held the chopsticks in his right hand and scattered the rice into the bowl.

Xiahou Yuan knew that Guo Jia was favored, and when Cao Cao was angry, he tilted his head to wink at Guo Jia, hoping that the other party could help him with a few good words.

Guo Jia understood the truth and bowed and advised, "Mr. Ming Gong must not be angry. Although those warships were unfortunately burned, Jiangdong actually lost 20,000 people. How many 20,000 people could Sun Quan raise? This time, he would definitely be greatly damaged.

The two generals should be punished and rewarded for their merits.”

"Um"

Cao Cao nodded slightly: "Let memorials and demerits be recorded for the time being. You can go down and rest first. When all the people who encircled Wu Jing will come back, I will make follow-up arrangements."

"yes."

Zhang He wanted to blame Mei Cheng, but when he saw Xiahou Yuan bowing his fists and saying goodbye, he also retreated immediately.

Perhaps because of the bad news, the rice in Cao Cao's mouth suddenly stopped smelling good, and his mind was all about how to fight the subsequent war. After all, the food rations of each department on the front line were only about ten days.

It is difficult for two hundred warships in Jiangdong to burn, so he can build them slowly in the future. The key is that more than a thousand canal cargo ships were destroyed, which is more than half of the transportation force of Cao Cao's waterway.

The other cargo ships are distributed in various counties and counties, and it takes a certain amount of time to recruit. It is too terrifying to use civilians to carry out land transportation. Too much corvee is required to incite rebellion, so the rear soldiers and food cannot be sent to the front line for a short time.

This war in Huainan must end within ten days.

Cao Cao put the rice bowl on the table. His belly was empty just now, but he tried hard to chew but couldn't swallow it.

Looking at Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Dong Zhao and other followers, Cao Cao planned to discuss with everyone.

"Fengxiao, Wenhe, Gongren, our grain ships were burned. Even if the food was saved, they could last until the end of June at most. However, Zhou Yu was not trapped, and Wancheng was still under siege.

If Yu Jun continues to waste, what should you do if you want to do?”

Guo Jia and Jia Xu did not answer, but looked at Dong Zhao at the same time.

Dong Zhao was the governor of Xuzhou after he replaced Che Zhou. Cao Cao summoned him to nominally counsel military affairs, but actually wanted to understand the recent situation in Xuzhou.

At present, the rebellion in Donghai County has been quelled. Changba once again admitted his mistake and repented, saying that he obeyed Dong Zhao's management with his tail between his legs; Chen Deng continued to resist Zhou Yu in Dongcheng County, but he did not expect that Zhou Yu "abandoned" Guangling to help Huainan.

Guo Jia, Jia Xu, forgot it, but Dong Zhao found that Cao Cao was also looking at him, so he quickly stood up and explained: "Xuzhou's people are in decline, the tax they collected is not enough to cover the income, and the cargo ship's capacity is extremely limited, so he may not be able to support the Huainan battlefield for the time being."

"Gong Ren sat down and talked. Xuzhou couldn't support him. He used the existing grain to do the existing business. The war was almost over until the end of June. Otherwise, Yuan Benchu ​​would think I was trapped in Huainan, and he was afraid that he would cross the Henan again to invade the country."

Cao Cao waved his hand to signal Dong Zhao to sit down. It was him who killed the people's livelihood in Xuzhou again and again, so it was not a big deal for Dong Zhao's lack of management, nor did he think about asking for food from Xuzhou.

Dong Zhao sat down with confidence and bowed to the point of saying: "Chen Yuanlong was ordered to send troops to Guangling. Maybe Zhou Yu was secretly arrived in Huainan. Why not let me set off to Dongcheng tomorrow and urge him to increase the offensive in Guangling? Perhaps it would give Sun Quan and Zhou Yu some pressure?"

"Hmm? It's feasible." Cao Cao nodded in surprise, then looked at Guo Jia again, Jia Xu: "What about your opinions?"
