Three Caos fighting for a bride? Zhen Ji, I, Cao Zhi, will take her!

Twenty days later.

Xun You rushed to Xia Pi from Yingchuan County.

Traveling with him were nearly a hundred trial soldiers and a long convoy full of food.

According to Xun You.

This is just the first batch of food.

The subsequent convoy is already on the way.

Seeing Xun You being so helpful, Cao Pi couldn't help but be overjoyed.

While thanking Xun You, he provoked Yu Jin with his eyes.

Seeing this, Yu Jin couldn't help but smile bitterly.

……

a month ago.

After Cao Pi took over the management of 20,000 troops from Yu Jin.

In order to win people's hearts.

The second order announced by Cao Pi after he came to power.

That is to provide food for these 20,000 soldiers.

Change from eating liquid food in the morning and dry food in the afternoon.

Change to eating dry food for both meals a day.

Before Xun You's food and supplies arrived.

The food for Cao Pi's army was all provided by Jin.

Cao Pi was in the front trying to win people's hearts.

But the one who suffered the consequences behind the scenes was Yu Jin.

Therefore, Yu Jin raised objections.

To make your words more convincing.

Yu Jin patiently explained to Cao Pi the standards for the army's meals in peacetime and in wartime.

In Yu Jin's opinion.

Although the training is hard, it is not life-threatening.

Soldiers can eat thinner and smaller amounts of food.

After all, we are in troubled times right now, and food is particularly precious.

Being able to guarantee soldiers two meals a day is already a great privilege.

If a war occurs.

In order to allow soldiers to maximize their strength.

Naturally, it is necessary to ensure that the soldiers have dry meals twice a day.

Even every now and then, they had to feed the soldiers meat...

In Yu Jin's opinion.

These are my heartfelt words.

These are all valuable military command experiences.

If Cao Pi knew what he was talking about, he would sincerely thank me and follow my advice.

But in Cao Pi's view.

Yu Jin was deliberately embarrassing himself.

After all, his military orders had been passed down, so how could he take them back?

In order to make Yu Jin obey him, Cao Pi brought up Cao Cao.

But to Cao Pi's disappointment.

Yu Jin still refused Cao Pi's order.

The soldiers were asked to resume their old habit of eating liquid food in the morning and dry food in the afternoon.

Cao Pi hated this with gnashing teeth.

But there was nothing he could do.

Because behind Yu Jin is the entire Xuzhou and Cao Cao.

If you don't have enough reasons, you won't take action against the ban.

If the news reached Cao Cao, he would be the one who suffered.

Therefore, although Cao Pi hated Yu Jin, he did not dare to change Yu Jin's orders without authorization.

……

And so it went for the next twenty days.

Cao Pi and Yu Jin saw each other every day.

But every time the two sides meet.

They just communicated with their eyes and didn't even want to say a word.

Now after seeing Xun You bringing food.

The "grievances" Cao Pi had suffered these days disappeared in an instant.

The look he gave Yu Jin was full of provocation.

As for Yu Jin, he turned his gaze to Xun You at this moment.

In his opinion, the only person who could persuade Cao Pi here was Xun You.

But to Yu Jin's disappointment, Xun You clearly knew the whole story, but turned a deaf ear to it.

With Xun You’s attitude, what else could Yu Jin say?

So he found an excuse and went to inspect the troops in the counties south of Xuzhou.

It seems that Yu Jin has hit a wall with Xun You.

Xu Huang, Li Dian and Zang Ba, who had previously planned to ask Xun You for help.

At this moment, he wisely shut his mouth.

……

As for Sima Lang and Cao Pi.

At this moment, after seeing Xun You's attitude.

The two were immediately ecstatic.

In Sima Lang's opinion.

Although the order to give the soldiers extra meals was given by Cao Pi.

But the actual executor is yourself.

Sima Lang could feel it clearly.

After giving the soldiers extra meals, they showed respect to the Sima family!

As for Cao Pi, he is also very proud now.

In his opinion, Xun You did not stop him, which meant that what he did was right!

And to prove that I am right.

Cao Pi gave the order immediately.

The rations of these 20,000 soldiers were changed to three meals a day, with each meal consisting of dry food.

Every ten soldiers could get a chicken every five days, a pork leg every ten days, and half a sheep every month.

Even Xun You couldn't help but twitch his eyes at such a sumptuous meal.

However, after seeing that Cao Pi and Sima Lang were inseparable, all the members of the Sima family were placed in the army.

Xun You remained silent.

Seeing Xun You remained silent.

Cao Pi and Sima Lang became increasingly unscrupulous.

……

Qingzhou.

Linzi.

When Yuan Tan heard the news that Cao Cao's son Cao Pi led his troops to attack Qingzhou, he was furious.

Although Yuan Tan looked down on Cao Cao.

But Cao Cao's ability to command troops is still recognized!

In Yuan Tan's opinion.

What if the person leading the troops to attack him was Cao Cao.

Then Yuan Tan would definitely pretend to resist for a few times before opening the city and surrendering.

After all, in today's world, it is not shameful to surrender to Cao Cao.

But when he thought that Cao Cao only sent his own son to attack him.

Yuan Tan knew it very well.

Cao Cao is using himself as a training ground for his son!

This undoubtedly made Yuan Tan feel greatly insulted!

"Damn it! Cao Cao deserves to die, Cao Pi deserves to die, and all those eunuchs in the Cao family deserve to die!"

Yuan Tan smashed the bottles and jars in the study and roared loudly.

Just then, Guo Tu and Xin Ping came into the study.

Among Yuan Shao's advisers.

Guo Tu and Xin Ping both supported the establishment of the eldest son.

Therefore, when Yuan Tan was appointed as the governor of Qingzhou.

The two followed Yuan Tan to Linzi.

"My lord, why are you angry?" The two men clasped their fists.

Seeing that the two of them were asking questions despite knowing the answer, Yuan Tan snorted coldly and said dissatisfiedly:

"What do you think?"

"This……"

The two looked at each other, and finally Guo Tu said:

"My lord, are you worried about Cao Pi leading his troops to attack Qingzhou? Please rest assured, my lord, I have a brilliant plan!"

"Oh, sir, do you have a good idea?"

Seeing Guo Tu say this.

Yuan Tan quickly grabbed Guo Tu's right hand and said earnestly.

"Haha, this is natural..."

Guo Tu looked very proud and immediately told his plan.

A quarter of an hour later.

When Guo Tu finished explaining his plan.

Yuan Tan was furious at this time and his fists were clenched.

The whole person is on the verge of exploding at any time.

And the reason why Yuan Tan was so angry.

The main reason was that Guo Tu’s previous strategy was to persuade him to surrender.

According to Guo Tu.

Cao Cao has now obtained Jizhou.

If nothing unexpected happens, the other three states will fall into Cao Cao's hands one after another in the future.

Among the three states of Qingzhou, Jizhou and Bingzhou today, Qingzhou is the weakest.

Therefore, rather than waiting for Cao Cao to send troops to capture Qingzhou, where he and others would become prisoners and their lives would be uncertain.

It would be better to surrender voluntarily and win Cao Cao's favor.

Consider the fact that Cao Cao forgave Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu.

As long as Yuan Tan surrenders voluntarily.

At the very least, he would obtain the title of Guannei Hou.

Unknown life or death and Guannei Hou?

No need to think about which one to choose!

We have to talk about Guo Tu.

Although it seems unreliable, it is actually not very reliable.

But he was able to become Yuan Shao's adviser.

It still has its own strength.

For example, the strategy he proposed today is the best choice.

Of course, this applies to the entire Yuan Tan force.

For Yuan Tan himself.

Guo Tu's strategy was a great insult to himself.

Let yourself surrender to Cao Pi?

It's like walking around naked in public.

Just when Yuan Tan was about to lose his temper.

Just then, Xin Ping spoke.

"Gongze's (Guo Tu, courtesy name Gongze) plan seems good, but have you ever considered that surrendering to Cao Cao and surrendering to Cao Pi are two completely different things?"

"Cao Cao's strength and magnanimity are known to the world. Surrendering to him is certainly not shameful!"

"But who is Cao Pi? Just because he's a young brat, he thinks he's worthy enough to ask the lord to surrender?"

"In my opinion, this time we must not only resist, but also defeat Cao Pi and show him our worth."

"Only in this way will Cao Cao offer generous conditions to persuade us to surrender!"

Xin Ping said lightly.

Seeing that Xin Ping actually denied him in front of Yuan Tan, Guo Tu was furious.

Just when he was about to open his mouth to fight back.

But Yuan Tan said excitedly:

"That's right, what Zhongzhi (Xin Ping, courtesy name Zhongzhi) said is exactly what I was thinking. This time we must not only win, but win beautifully!"
