Chapter 138: Married women are Lao Cao’s hobby, what does it have to do with me?(1/3)
A small Wancheng, to be honest, is probably as useless to Cao Cao.
However, the location of Wancheng is too special.
If Cao Cao wants to attack Yuan Shu, Wancheng is equivalent to the land behind Xuchang.
Once there is any change in Wancheng, it will still be a huge threat to Xuchang.
On the other hand, if Cao Cao wants to advance westward, he must pass through Wancheng.
And the location of Wancheng is like a lump in the throat.
Although it doesn't have as big an impact as him, it still makes people feel a little uncomfortable after all.
In this way, it is extremely normal for Cao Cao to think about his army's westward march and take out the nail in Wancheng as his first step.
Xiyu knows it in his heart.
At this moment, Cao Cao raised his eyes and looked at Xi Yu.
"Fengyi, this is exactly why I came to you to ask what you think?"
In this external expedition, Cao Cao's goal is not just Wancheng.
In this battle, Cao Cao naturally planned to lead the army himself.
At present, Cao Cao is almost middle-aged and full of momentum. He has not yet climbed to the top, but his momentum is still extremely sufficient.
Hearing Cao Cao's words, Xi Yu narrowed his eyes.
Ask your own opinion.
If it were to attack Yuan Shao and attack Huainan, he would have no objection at all.
But if we are heading west, we can attack Wancheng first.
Xi Yu naturally has a lot of ideas for this battle.
But there are some things that he can't just talk about right now.
You can't just say that you, Old Cao, don't need to fight. As soon as the army comes out, Zhang Xiu of Wancheng will surrender.
At that time, as long as you control your lower body, nothing will happen.
You can continue heading west.
However, it is a bit unbelievable to say this.
To say that Zhang Xiu conquered the city and surrendered is nothing. As long as you analyze it a little, you can see it to some extent.
Xun Yu and the others can understand it if they think about it.
But asking Boss Cao to control his third leg is too outrageous to say!
How come you, Xi Yu, can predict the future? How can you still know that Cao Cao cannot control his lower body after entering Wancheng?
He, Cao Cao, is not a puppet for you to play with.
"Brother, what are your plans for this battle?"
Xi Yu did not ask how to deal with the Battle of Wancheng, but directly asked Cao Cao what preparations he had for this westward march.
After hearing this, no one thought much.
Cao Cao also followed up and said: "This time I plan to lead 500,000 troops and march westward. First, I will destroy Wancheng, and then march to Luoyang. Going west, I can point my sword at the Sili Chang'an area!"
To put it simply, Cao Cao plans to deal with Li Jue and Guo Si.
Xiyu paused, and Cao Cao continued to talk.
At this time, he stopped completely, and did not hear that Cao Cao intended to take Dian Wei with him, nor did he ask him to follow.
Xiyu doesn’t have much to worry about.
However, Cao Cao's eldest son, Cao Ang, has just become an official. At this time, Cao Cao will naturally take the opponent with him in the first battle to increase his power in the army.
It is equivalent to gold plating and increasing qualifications.
This is a normal thing.
But Xi Yu understood that Cao Ang might be in danger!
At this time, he can't just say, don't take your son with you, you will trick him to death.
There is no reason to say this!
"So, Yu doesn't have much to say!"
Xiyu thought for a while, then continued to speak.
"This time, our army is going on an expedition. I expect that when Zhang Xiu of Nawan City saw that his brother had raised an army of 500,000 men, he must have no intention of fighting."
"Yu expected that when Zhang Xiude's brother comes, the city will surely surrender!"
"It's just that brother, you still need to be careful in this matter!"
After all, Xi Yu can only give a simple reminder that some words should not be too direct.
But he still has to take this matter to heart after all.
Surrender the whole city?
After Xi Yu finished speaking, Cao Cao smiled: "As Fengyi thought, I don't think that Zhang Xiu dared to go against me."
Cao Cao laughed, and Xun Yu and others who came up did not pay attention.
After all, no one would have thought that a small Wancheng could become a black spot for Cao Cao in his life!
"Fengyi, are you interested in sending out this army?"
After thinking for a while, Cao Cao finally asked.
If Xiyu can go out with him this time, then the westward march will definitely be extremely smooth.
However, after hearing Cao Cao's words, Xi Yu shook his head.
Although if he had followed, with his support, the incident in Wancheng would have been avoided. Even if it did happen, with his presence, there would be a layer of protection.
However, now the Xuchang school incident is almost about to begin.
It coincides with spring plowing.
On the one hand, he is still a great farmer of the Han Dynasty, so what does it mean to go on an expedition with the army?
Spring plowing is his duty, and Xuchang School is also his duty.
"Brother, I apologize for not being able to go with you on this trip!"
Xi Yu waved his hand and then stated his reason: "It is spring plowing now, and I still need to coordinate the farming in various places. In addition, school matters should also be put on the agenda. After all, I brought up this matter. After all, Yu
Be responsible!"
After Xi Yu said this, Cao Cao was not surprised at all.
There is no problem with what he said. On the one hand, it is about Xiyu’s current responsibilities, and on the other hand.
Everyone knows that Xi Yu doesn't like military service. This guy doesn't have much interest in fighting.
Fortunately, Cao Cao did not try to persuade him.
Immediately afterwards, he heard Xi Yu say again.
"Brother, I plan to leave it to Zhao Yun to take care of the food and fodder in the baggage camp. Brother, don't worry about the food and fodder!"
Part of the reason why Cao Cao started the war with Xi Yu was because of the issue of escorting grain and grass.
As the saying goes, when a large army goes on an expedition, food and grass go first.
Food and grass are the top priority of the army.
Hearing that Xi Yu had made the arrangements, Cao Cao was relieved. Now that the things to be discussed were finished, he said goodbye to Xi Yu and left the theater with Xun Yu and others.
After Cao Cao left, Xi Yu couldn't help but sigh.
After all, Wancheng's affairs are still on Xi Yu's side. There are some things that he should prepare for.
"Ayu, are you worried?"

After seeing Cao Cao leaving, Xi Yu sighed.
Xi Zhicai hurriedly asked Xi Yu.
Seeing Xi Zhicai's confused look, Xi Yu didn't hesitate and spoke directly what was in his mind.
After all, he is his brother, so he can say some things without any scruples.
"What I'm worried about is Wancheng!"
In front of Xi Zhicai, Xi Yu didn't have the slightest scruple and spoke directly.
Xi Zhicai was obviously a little puzzled when he heard about Wancheng.
"Oh, what do you mean by this?"
