Chapter 186 Cao Peng's rhetoric: Take Jingzhou without bloodshed

Cao Cao, who was far away in Xudu, was holding a report in his hand.

This is something Cao Peng sent to him from the front line.

This was explained in detail by Cao Peng. A series of things happened after he went to Jingzhou.

Cao Cao couldn't help but curse Cao Peng secretly, saying that this guy is really an old problem and has been dealt with again.

The first thing that comes to mind when I arrive in Jingzhou is actually looking for a woman.

As for the fact that he easily captured Xinye City and returned it to Liu Biao, he didn't care about it.

After he personally led the army southward, it was just a matter of being in a flash of his fingers.

He summoned everyone to come here today to talk about the incident when he went south.

"Liu Biao in Jingzhou is already dying and is about to die of illness. The information sent from the front line asked me to lead a large army. What do you think?" Cao Cao asked.

After listening to Cao Cao's question.

Several of his masters were thinking about what to do next.

Cheng Yu first said: "I think this matter is not urgent either."

Cao Cao asked, "Why?"

"Because Liu Biao has not yet died in this matter. If we are worried, it may backfire if we are anxious." Cheng Yu said.

Xun Yu smiled and said, "The way to use troops is to follow the etiquette of the times. Now our army has the upper hand, but it has missed the opportunity, so it will inevitably lead to disaster for the rest of our lives!"

Xun Yu has long been Cao Peng's member, so he is a pro-war faction, and the others are not confused at all.

This time, Cao Peng was appointed as the General of the Conquest South. As long as he wins, Cao Peng's position in the army will inevitably be unshakable.

Cao Cao made the decision: "Okay, as Xun Yu said, what we should do now is to follow the times and unify the world, go and rectify the troops, and prepare to go south!"

...

Cao Cao was preparing to go south for half a month, but the army set out for another half a month.

The army gathered in Fancheng, and Cao Cao summoned Cao Peng to come.

"Oh, you little devil, you actually handed over the city you got for a woman!" Cao Cao said angrily.

If it were someone else, he would be really scared by his appearance.

But how could Cao Peng be afraid of him?

"Uncle, it's just a Shinno City, this is just a link in my layout."

Cao Cao laughed and said, "I really can't scare you, kid. I'm relieved to do your business."

"Thank you for your trust, uncle." Cao Peng bowed and smiled.

Cao Cao said again: "I heard that the girl from the Huang family looks pretty and is really cheap."

Cao Peng smiled helplessly. He expected Cao Cao would definitely laugh at him with Dian Wei Xuchu and others.

It seems that my name as a poacher is unexplainable.

"Okay, uncle, you should come to me not just to say this!" Cao Peng said.

Cao Cao nodded. He did have some military information and wanted to ask Cao Peng for a question.

"Anmin, I plan to launch an attack now. What do you think?" Cao Cao asked.

Cao Peng said: "If we launch an attack now, we will inevitably suffer too much."

"Of course, if my uncle wants to use troops, I can serve as a pioneer and attack such a Jingzhou city. I am sure."

Cao Cao couldn't help but smile and asked, "But, you formed an alliance with Liu Biao not long ago, and in my name, we suddenly sent troops to attack him. Will it seem unreasonable?"

Cao Peng smiled, "Why do you have this kind of worry, uncle? I promise that Liu Biao would feel comfortable forming an alliance, and he could overthrow this alliance."

Cao Cao shook his head, saying that this was inappropriate.

He is no longer the Cao Aman used to be. She used to do anything to win, but now he is so focused on reputation. It's time for him to come.

He didn't want to hear what he heard on the battlefield in the future that everyone said he was unreasonable.

Cao Peng had already understood what Cao Cao meant, so he said: "Uncle, we actually have a better way to maintain the alliance and take down Jingzhou without bloodshed!"

Cao Cao said in surprise: "What method?"

He took Jingzhou without any blood, and this incident sounded horrifying to him.

Cao Peng smiled and said to Cao Cao: "Uncle, once Liu Biao dies, the power of Jingzhou will inevitably fall into Cai Mao's hands. I am 90% sure that Cai Mao can convince him to surrender."

"Are you so sure that Cai Mao will definitely turn against the situation?" Cao Cao asked.

Cao Peng nodded with certainty, after all, he had been preparing for this matter for so long.

"Cai Mao is greedy for power. We only need the bears to promise her some benefits, and he will inevitably surrender!"

"Then, you must be sure that the power of Jingzhou will fall on Cai Mao?" Cao Cao continued to ask.

Cao Peng smiled and said, "Cai Mao's elder sister married Huang Chengyan, a famous scholar in Jingzhou, and his second sister is Liu Biao's wife."

"In recent years, he has been forming cliques for personal gain and winning over his own forces. In addition, Liu Biao is now terminally ill, so the civil and military officials in Jingzhou have probably been under Cai Mao's command."

After listening to Cao Peng's reports, Cao Cao completely believed it.

"Okay, then let's listen, how can we take Jingzhou without bloodshed?"

Cao Peng said: "As soon as Liu Biao dies, Cai Mao will definitely surrender to us. I only need to make two promises to me comfortably and promise her that she will surrender."

Cao Cao asked, "What are the conditions?"

Cao Peng smiled and said, "Appointing Cai Mao as the chief commander of the navy will make plans for us to continue to conquer the Eastern Wu. The second is to promise him to safeguard the rights and interests of Cai's family in Jingzhou, and to make Cai's son Liu Zong the governor of Jingzhou."

"But this governor of Jingzhou is naturally in Xudu!"

When Cao Cao heard this, he immediately understood completely and asked in disbelief: "It's that simple?"

Cao Peng nodded, "It's that simple indeed."

It is naturally a very suitable deal for Cao Cao to take down Jingzhou City without bloodshed.

So he agreed to Cao Peng and asked him to persuade him to surrender.

When Cao Peng left, he suddenly said to Cao Cao for some reason.

"Uncle, I heard that Mrs. Cai of Liu Biao is a charming beauty, a famous beauty in Jingzhou City. When Liu Biao dies and Cai Mao surrenders, this pretty widow Mrs. Cai will be the one in my uncle's pocket."

Cao Cao didn't expect that Cao Peng would say such words, which immediately made his old face flush.

On the one hand, I was stimulated by the content of Cao Peng's words.

"Bastard, what are you talking nonsense?" Cao Cao cursed angrily.
