As a result, now that Bao Xin is dead, Cao Cao is like a turtle hunched and dare not fight again. The best result is that Cao Cao defended Shouzhang and stopped the expansion of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army. This is still a 100,800-mile distance from driving the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army out of Yanzhou!

Moreover, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army is now standing next to you. What is the Yellow Turban Army? That is the Yellow Turban thief! The so-called lying beside the bed, how can others snore? Not to mention that the person sleeping next to you is a thief, who may come to plunder or even kill him at any time! Therefore, even if Cao Cao can resist the attack of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, as long as Cao Cao fails to completely drive the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army out of Yanzhou, the whole country of Yanzhou will not be able to sleep peacefully and will continue to blame Cao Cao.

Cao Cao first took over Yanzhou, but his prestige was not enough and his credibility was not enough. This was also one of the reasons why Cao Cao had set up a surprise weapon to win a big victory. However, after Bao Xin's death, Cao Cao suddenly understood something. That is, "unwind" is definitely much better than "losing"!

Cao Cao has been resisting Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army in Shouzhang, so no matter how much he is a turtle, no matter how great condemned or severe pressure he has been under, it is absolutely impossible for the whole country of Yanzhou to do anything to him. Because at most, Cao Cao slapped his butt and quit, and directly led his troops back to Dongjun. Then there will be a large area in Yanzhou that will be plundered by the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army.

Therefore, as long as Cao Cao defended Shou Zhang, he would defend the psychological bottom line of Yanzhou. If he rashly sent troops but lost again, Cao Cao would really not be able to stay there.

Cao Cao thought, why did Bao Xin die? That was because Cao Cao was blinded by his false reputation. He wanted to win a great reputation in the minds of Yanzhou. This mistake was obviously made by Yuan Shao. Now he was also made by Cao Cao. If no matter how others scolded him, he would take the most favorable choice. This should be his Cao Cao's style!

For example, the so-called strategic retreat, or even a strategy of deliberately defeating and choosing to lure the enemy into depth, will always be regarded as incompetent, useless, embarrassing and cowardly by some or even a large number of people on this side. Should they give up because of the views of these people?

Those who can truly accomplish things must be able to withstand public opinion and pressure. Moreover, Cao Cao's behavior of surrendering the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou will inevitably bear greater public opinion condemnation and greater internal pressure, but in order to maximize the interests, Cao Cao could only grit his teeth and survive!

"Zhicai?! Why did you run over? Don't you know that your body is not suitable for running around like this for a long distance? Just ask someone to bring a message!" The arrival of Zhicai on this day must have caught Cao Cao off guard.

Although I still don’t know why Xi Zhicai came, it goes without saying that Cao Cao could guess that it must be for his great cause! Xi Zhicai was able to do things like this, which made Cao Cao both moved and felt distressed.

Beauty needs to be hurt, and talents also need to be hurt. Perhaps Cao Cao’s choice between talents and beauties may not be able to be clearly stated. But that is because beauties and talents are divided into different types and levels. Cao Cao may give up a small talent because of a big beauty, but if beauty and talent belong to the same level, then Cao Cao should give up the beauty and take talents!

Therefore, after Guo Jia arrived at Cao's camp, Cao Cao never mentioned it even once. Nonsense. Cao Cao is not a fool. If he really does something random, there will be a few people who dare to join him in peace in the future. So what Cao Cao usually looks for is widows, which are the "trophies" that will be defeated and killed by the enemy.

For example, if Cao Cao wanted to surrender Zhou Yu during the Battle of Chibi, he would never have the idea of ​​attacking Xiao Qiao; as for Da Qiao, it would be a little hard to say. Cao Cao likes to play these edge balls.

Back at the scene, Xi Zhicai spoke,

"Ahem, lord, because it is of great importance, I have to come over and have a detailed discussion in person."

"Oh?" Cao Cao's heart moved. Judging from Xi Zhicai's journey, it shouldn't be that something happened to the base camp. "Is it about the Qingzhou Yellow Turban?"

"That's right, cough." Xi Zhicai nodded and said directly, "Master, it may be a little surprised, but I still want to say that our best way now should be to surrender the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou!"

"Haha!" After hearing Xi Zhicai's words, Cao Cao laughed out loud.

Xi Zhicai misunderstood Cao Cao's reaction, and immediately raised his face and shouted seriously.

"Master! I'm not joking! Ahem!"

"I know, I know, don't be excited, Zhicai, you can take a look at this first." Cao Cao quickly handed a roll of bamboo slips on the table to Xi Zhicai.

Xi Zhicai picked up the bamboo slips with a little confusion and looked at it. His pupils suddenly shrank because there were a few big words written on it - to summon the Yellow Turbans of Qingzhou! Someone actually went with him?! Xi Zhicai quickly looked at the signature and couldn't help but scream.

"Guo Fengxiao?!"

"That's right, Feng Xiao sent this letter with a quick horse. Zhicai was slower, so it was just two days earlier." Cao Cao explained with a smile. He knew that with the relationship between Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai, there would never be any communication, especially if Xi Zhicai knew about Guo Jia's letter in advance, with his arrogance, Xi Zhicai would never come here specifically. Therefore, Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai could only say that they thought of going together this time.

Moreover, Cao Cao also deliberately emphasized that Guo Jia was quick and whipping, while Xi Zhicai was slow, which was saying that they had come up with no order, so as not to quarrel over this little thing again.

"Zhicai, look, in fact, you and Fengxiao are not only similar in personality, but also have similar ideas. As long as you get along well, you should be able to become friends." Cao Cao took the opportunity to ease the relationship between Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai, but Cao Cao obviously did useless work.

"Lord, let's talk about serious business! Ahem!" Xi Zhicai said with a calm face.

Cao Cao knew he could not force himself, so he could only skip this topic and said,

"Zhicai, you are here too. Fengxiao only wrote these few words. What should we do? We still need to ask Zhicai to help you answer a few questions."

Of course, this is a polite word from Cao Cao. In fact, can Guo Jia’s actions be hidden from Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai? Even if Cao Cao really didn’t expect that there was Xun Yu on the front line! In the eyes of Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia is just a bitch and a archway!

Is Guo Jia the kind of guy who only knows the word "recruitment" but doesn't want specific methods, is unrealistic, and talks on paper? Absolutely not! The reason why he didn't say it was obviously because this specific method is difficult to explain in detail. Guo Jia didn't want to be condemned for such a thing and did not want to offend some people, so he simply wrote a wordless book. I remember that there seemed to be a book called "What else do men think besides sex", but in the end, more than 200 pages were blank...
