Three Kingdoms: defect to Liu Bei and backhand intercept Mrs. Hu Mi

Chapter 226 Xun Yu: Did I overestimate Lin Fan?

The sun sets slowly and the evening breeze blows out slowly.

Tonight is the time agreed with the Cai family and the Kuai family.

After tonight, the entire Jingxiang will return to the rule of the imperial court. To put it simply, it will return to the rule of Cao Cao.

Now that Xiliang has fallen into his hands, Li Jue and Guo Si of Chang'an are just meat on the ground and will be wiped out in a short time.

By then, he will control the land of six states in the world, which can be said to occupy half of the country. Not to mention a little Lin Fan, so what if he is the hero of the world?

Therefore, Cao Cao, who was standing on the north bank of Xiangjiang River, was in a very good mood at the moment.

He felt that as long as he took a small step forward, he would create history and end the troubled times.

"Tap Tap"

There was a sound of footsteps, and Xun Yu appeared in front of Cao Cao: "My Lord, the 80,000-strong army has already passed Xiangjiang. We only need to give the Lord's order to advance into Xiangyang and completely occupy Jingxiang."

"The Lord will change history and become a famous official of the Han Dynasty who can turn the tide."

"only."

Speaking of this, a look of worry flashed in Xun Yu's eyes.

"Just what?"

"I just felt that everything went too smoothly, as if it had been rehearsed."

Cao Cao laughed and stroked his beard: "Wen Ruo, isn't it going well? Don't think too much, victory is right in front of you."

"But speaking of it, tonight is Liu Jingsheng's wedding night. We should be sitting with the beautiful lady and enjoying the pleasure of the boudoir, but we came without telling you. Speaking of which, we are considered uninvited guests!"

Xun Yu was stunned and couldn't help but laugh: "It's Liu Jingsheng who doesn't understand the situation. If he had contacted the court early, how could he have ended up in this situation?"

"If you don't have that ability, don't have the idea of ​​dominating one party, otherwise you will only get yourself burned."

Cao Cao nodded: "Yes, smart people will not die in this world, and stupid people will not die either. Only those who think they are smart will die."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was another burst of rapid footsteps.

"Mr. Gongda is here!"

"Ok?"

"Gongda?"

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and a flash of confusion flashed in his eyes: "Scream!"

In a short time, Xun You came quickly under the leadership of a soldier.

"I've seen Duke Cao!"

Cao Cao helped Xun You up: "Gongda, why are you here?"

Xun You said with a smile on his face: "Last night in Jiangling City, the gates of the Kuai family were opened, and all the defenders were wiped out by Huang Zu. Now Jiangling is under the control of the imperial court and under the control of the prime minister."

Cao Cao laughed loudly: "What a double happiness!"

"Wen Ruo, you were worried just now, but now you've put your mind at ease, right?"

"If the Kuai family has other ideas, or if he is the spokesperson of the third force as you guessed, why did they open the gate of Jiangling City?"

"Isn't it good to just watch us and Liu Biao suffer a loss?"

"Worry too much!"

Xun You looked confused.

Cao Cao explained with a smile.

Xun You was silent for a while: "Uncle, do you really think there is something wrong with the Kuai family?"

"But we just arrived at Jiangling last night, and everything is exactly the same as the previous plan. It would be too hasty to change the mission and miss the best opportunity just because of this doubt in my heart."

"I also think what my uncle said is suspicious, but I don't agree with it to deny tonight's plan."

Xun Yu was silent for a long time: "I have a palpitating feeling. That power obviously represents Lin Fan, but at the most critical moment, it seems as if it doesn't exist. What does this mean?" "It means they have something more." I’m afraid of deep-seated plans.”

Before he finished speaking, Cao Cao patted Xun Yu on the shoulder: "Wen Ruo, you are too sensitive."

"After tonight, everything will be a foregone conclusion."

"When the North City Gate is opened, victory will belong to us."

"As Gongda said, our overall plan cannot be negated just because of a little doubt."

"We must enter Xiangyang City tonight."

Xun Yu was silent for a long time and nodded slowly: "I hope it's my worries that are unfounded and Lin Fan suddenly changed his mind, but there is one thing my lord has to promise me."

Cao Cao was stunned and said with a smile: "Wen Ruo, are you talking so formally?"

"Do we still need to be so polite to each other? But it doesn't matter!"

Xun Yu said: "Tonight, Duke Cao will hold us back and we will not be the first to enter Xiangyang City."

Cao Cao frowned slightly: "Wen Ruo, do you still think there will be an ambush in the city?"

"You don't have any evidence about this matter, so you want me to change my plan?"

Xun Yu shook his head: "I am not changing Duke Cao's plan, but I hope that Duke Cao will be safe and sound without any danger."

"After all, Duke Cao is the cornerstone of the entire imperial court. If you make a mistake, the entire imperial court will be in chaos instantly, and the situation created between us will fall apart in an instant."

"therefore."

Speaking of this, Xun Yu fell to his knees on the ground and looked at Cao Cao expectantly.

After a brief silence, Xun You also knelt on the ground: "Uncle is right."

"Even if we are completely sure, the Prime Minister cannot take risks. The Prime Minister's life is greater than the sky."

Seeing his uncle and nephew kneeling down in front of him, Cao Cao was silent for a while and sighed: "You all know my character. I am not a person who takes the lead, and I will not risk my life."

"But after successive failures, the voices of dissatisfaction with me in the court became more and more loud."

"I want to use this big victory to prove that my route is correct and my plan is correct."

"Now that we are so close and victory is within our grasp, you let me watch the show outside. This is too heartless."

Seeing the two of them kneeling on the ground, still unwilling to get up, Cao Cao was silent for a while and sighed softly: "That's alright!"

"Just listen to you!"

"Although I don't think there is any ambush in Xiangyang City, I understand your good intentions, so I will follow your ideas."

"go!"

"Let's go to Xiangyang City."

When the last ray of sunset disappeared from the horizon, the entire land was shrouded in darkness.

Cao's soldiers, who had been ambushing outside the city for a long time, slowly approached the city wall according to their original marching route.

Everything went very smoothly.

Suddenly, shouts of killing suddenly rang out in the city, which shocked Cao Cao who was ambushing outside the city.

Then he raised the corner of his mouth and laughed loudly: "Wen Ruo, it seems you are worrying too much!"

"Where is the ambush? The plan has already begun."

"Cai Mao, Kuai Yue has launched the final attack on the Prefectural Mufu. Regardless of whether Liu Biao is dead or not, when the lanterns light up on the city wall, it is time for us to enter the city."

"Xiangyang City is ours!"

Xun You also had a smile on his face, his eyes fixed on the city wall, waiting for the agreed code to appear.

Xun Yu showed a look of surprise. Could it be that his previous bad premonition was wrong and he overestimated Lin Fan? (End of chapter)
