Prime Minister's Mansion.

Cao Cao's generals and advisers stood up solemnly, and no one dared to speak out. In today's battle, the Wuling Army took the initiative to retreat, which was not considered their victory.

In addition, Cao Cao trusted Guo Jia, who was right-hand man, to be a spy arranged by Wu Shun. Fortunately, Cao Cao was suspicious by nature and kept a little care about everything, otherwise he would be worried.

Thinking that if the clues were not discovered early, the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion would all have numb scalps!

Although Yizhou's methods are insidious, as long as they are not discovered, they are all arrangements that can directly determine the outcome.

"Has the assassin ever caught?"

Cao Cao, who had calmed down, asked.

"Not yet." Cao Ren stepped out.

The assassin who assassinated Cao Cao was very skilled in martial arts and never saw it again after he disappeared.

"Send additional personnel to clear the spies in the city!" Cao Cao waved.

Wu Shun arranged too many spies and was too secret. Now Cao Cao has seen the seriousness of the harm, so it is natural to order it to be wiped out.

"Lord, the people in the court are now in panic. If they are not stable, there will be chaos."

Xun Yu came out and said.

The Wuling Army had already reached Xudu, and the officials in the city were scared. They dared not show it because Cao Cao's majesty was still there.

However, Xu Ducheng is indeed in a turbulent tide!

In today's war, some people are already dissatisfied with Cao Cao.

After all, the Xicheng Gate was broken on the first day of the Wuling Army's attack, and the combat power of Cao's army was no longer trustworthy.

"Zhongde, you send someone to stare at those officials. Whoever dares to do something that is not good for Xu will be executed directly!" Cao Cao ordered.

The reason why Chen Yu was asked to be responsible for this is because Chen Yu was Cao Cao's loyalty and was clean and neat, like using human flesh to make dry food, which was done by Chen Yu. This person is ruthless!

Although Xun Yu is outstanding in ability and talented as a king and a master, he is a representative of aristocratic families and is unlikely to do something to eliminate the roots.

The families gathered in Xudu have some related problems.

"Abide by the order!" Chen Yu did not refuse Cao Cao's order. There was indeed no more suitable candidate among Cao's army than him.

"Cao Ren, the Wuling Army will not retreat easily. You must patrol strictly and not give Wu Shun an opportunity to take advantage of it." Cao Cao said again.

"I will obey the order!"

Xudu’s defense is under the responsibility of Cao Ren, and patroling is only one part of it.

"Liu Ye, install the Thunder Cart on the city wall as soon as possible to increase the defensive power."

The fire bombs of the Wuling Army did make the Cao army suffer a lot. The Cao army also had a thunderbolt chariot. Just move it to the city wall to fight against the Wuling Army. No matter how bad it is, it can fight to the lose-lose situation!

It is Cao Cao’s idea to not be beaten blindly.

"The subordinates immediately arranged personnel and installed the thunder cart on the city wall." Liu Ye said.

This reformer of the Pili Car was very smart. At this time, Cao Cao personally explained it, and he was quite excited.

"Lord, will you negotiate with the Wuling Army and exchange it for General Xu Chu?"

Xun You asked.

After Xu Chu was captured, the Tiger Guard had no command and his combat power was greatly reduced. Otherwise, Gan Ning's Marine Corps had caused trouble in the city and would not have thought of running away at all.

"Would Wu Shun be willing to let go?" Cao Cao asked. The Wuling Army had a tradition of capturing the enemy's general and releasing it, but that would cost some price. The most important thing is that the Wuling Army is now trying to find a way to break through Xu Du, so how could it put Xu Chu back?

"You have to try it before you know!" Xun You said. With Xu Chu guarding Cao Cao, they were more at ease.

During the negotiations with the Wuling Army, you can also investigate Wu Shun's next intentions.

"How sure are you sure about this?"

If Xu Chu could be exchanged for him, Cao Cao would naturally be willing. Even if he spent some money, he would be willing to do so.

"Lord, the Tiger Guards failed to catch this moment, but they captured Gan Ning, the chief commander of the navy in Yizhou!"

Xun You smiled.

Gan Ning was injured and placed in a house. Because Wang Yue's assassination failed, he was searched and pursued by Cao Cao's Tiger Guard Army. This search just happened to search Gan Ning.

Gan Ning was also a tragic man. When he encountered dozens of Tiger Guards, he was injured and was captured alive without struggling a few times. All the black guards who protected him were killed!

When Cao Cao heard that Gan Ning was arrested, he suddenly felt energetic: "Bring it up!"

Since Gan Ning was captured, the elite Wuling Army in the city were probably the legendary Dragon Marine Corps.

Thinking of the purpose of the Marine Corps, Cao Cao was so angry that he was so angry!

"Kneel down!" Two soldiers rushed Gan Ning in, trying to suppress Gan Ning and kneel down to Cao Cao, but Gan Ning stood up straight and let them kick and beat him, but he just didn't kneel!

"Forget it, go back."

Cao Cao did not force him to kneel down. Cao Cao admired a man as determined as Gan Ning.

"Why don't you relax the ties to the Grand Governor Ganning?" Cao Cao shouted.

The two soldiers hurriedly let go of Gan Ning and then retreated. They were no longer needed here.

"Cao Cao, don't be hypocritical. If you catch this general, do you want to kill or shave?"

Gan Ning looked down on her.

The moment he was arrested, he had already thought of his own ending. No matter what Cao Cao did, he would not appreciate it.

"Xingba is really a generous person. Come on, give him a seat!"

Cao Cao was not angry about Gan Ning's confrontation, but instead arranged a seat for Gan Ning. This made Gan Ning a little confused. What is the purpose of Cao Cao's grasping himself and not killing him?

"Say something if you have something to say."

Gan Ning was not stupid either. Cao Cao did not convict him or executed him, so he must have something to say.

"Xingba is quick to speak, so the prime minister will say it straight. I heard that Wu Shun asked Xingba to take charge of the Yizhou naval army, and the prime minister also intends to establish a naval army. I wonder if Xingba is willing to help me?"

Cao Cao was surrendering nakedly.

"Don't think about it!"

Gan Ning's answer was straightforward!

"Since Xingba is unwilling, it's no wonder he wanted to be cruel." Cao Cao said.

If you don’t agree, you will die. In the past, Cao Cao went out like this.

But today is different from the past. His personal guard general Xu Chu was captured alive by the Wuling Army. I believe Wu Shun was trying every means to surrender, but Cao Cao was confident in Xu Chu.

Xun You said that when Gan Ning was arrested, Cao Cao had an idea in his mind, using Gan Ning to exchange Xu Chu for it.

Gan Ning is the chief commander-in-chief of Yizhou, and the Marine Corps has been lost more than half. It is not a big threat to him if he put Gan Ning back.

On the contrary, if Xu Chu comes back, it will be a great encouragement to the Cao army soldiers. And his own safety will be guaranteed.

When Gan Ning heard Cao Cao's words, he thought he was going to be killed, and he felt extremely regretful. His navy had not yet left the sea, and his lord had not yet unified the world, and he was about to die...

"If you want to kill, hurry up!" Gan Ning said to Cao Cao.

"Take it down!" Cao Cao did not order the killing of Gan Ning, but asked someone to take Gan Ning down and lock him up.

"Gongda, can Gan Ning exchange Zhongkang back?" Cao Cao asked.

"Lord, my subordinates are willing to go and give it a try." Xun You said.
