"Freshly brewed tea, would you like a cup, Fourth Young Master?"

Guo Jia's voice rang in Cao Zhi's ears.

Follow the sound.

I saw it next to the desk not far from my bed.

Guo Jia was drinking tea leisurely at this moment.

And Chen Lin was accompanying him at the moment.

I know that Guo Jia came to see me, it must be related to what happened last night.

Cao Zhi quickly washed up and quickly came to Guo Jia.

"That's a great way to drink it, Fourth Young Master. You've surprised me again!"

Guo Jia laughed.

"Since you like it, Master Guo, take some back when you leave later!"

Cao Zhi laughed.

At this point, Cao Zhi changed the subject and said, "Guo Jijiu specially waited for me, not just to discuss the tea ceremony with me!"

"What do you say?"

Guo Jia rolled his eyes at Cao Zhi.

The meaning is obvious.

In other words, we are all foxes, so there is no need to play dumb.

Seeing Guo Jia's attitude, Cao Zhi knew that Cao Cao must have also known about the assassination last night.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhi asked, "How much does father know about the assassination last night?"

"All!" Guo Jia said.

"Baoyue Tower is not a good place for conversation!"

"Then how will father handle this matter?" Cao Zhi asked.

"After all, he is my son, and it would be disastrous if this matter were to get out. Therefore, Sikong will confine the Second Young Master to his house for half a month!"

"Of course, as the victim, Sikong has decided to dispatch one hundred soldiers to serve as your guards as compensation!"

"What, only one hundred!" Cao Zhi said disappointedly.

"What do you mean by only a hundred? A hundred armored soldiers is already a lot. Among all the sons of Cao Gong, only you have such treatment!"

"Once this matter gets out, the nobles of Hebei will rush to surrender!"

Guo Jia explained with a smile.

Well, it turns out that the publicity effect is greater than the actual effect!

Seeing Guo Jia say this, Cao Zhi decided to stop while he was ahead.

Then Cao Zhi asked again, "What are you going to do with Zhang Yan?"

"Originally, the Prime Minister intended to leave 5,000 men for Zhang Yan as his personal army, but after what happened last night, the Prime Minister decided to only leave 2,000 men for Zhang Yan. Even so, the Prime Minister considered that killing Zhang Yan would have a negative impact. In the past, Zhang Yan would have been beheaded long ago!"

Speaking of this, Guo Jia sighed.

It seemed as if he was very disappointed that he failed to kill Zhang Yan.

"Only 2,000 is too few. Zhang Yan has an army of 100,000!"

Cao Zhi said.

"It is precisely because Zhang Yan has an army of 100,000 that the Prime Minister wants to reduce the army. The predecessor of the Black Mountain Army is the Yellow Turban Army. What else can the Yellow Turban Army do except eat and die!"

"Sikong is kind-hearted and cannot bear to see so many people die. Of course, Sikong is also unwilling to spend a lot of money and food to feed a group of soldiers who have no fighting power, so he ordered the disarmament!"

Well, there is this reason!

Through Guo Jia's explanation.

Cao Zhi finally understood.

It seems that Cao Cao looked down upon the combat effectiveness of the Black Mountain Army.

However, after all, it is an army of 100,000. If a mutiny occurs, it will be no trivial matter.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhi was about to persuade Guo Jia to act cautiously.

At this moment, the voice of the system came into Cao Zhi's mind.

"Ding, the system has detected that the host is facing a choice and now offers the following three options."

"Choose one: Stay out of it, don't comment on disarmament, and you'll receive a bottle of happy water!"

"Choose two, stop Cao Cao from reducing his army, and you'll get a lighter!"

"Choose three: Convince Zhang Yan to voluntarily disarm. You'll receive some sweet potato vines!"

Along with the system's voice, it rang in Cao Zhi's mind.

Cao Zhi decisively gave up options one and two.

After all, I am not a fat homebody and I don’t smoke.

What do you want? Happy water and a lighter.

Giving myself these two rewards is undoubtedly useless.

As for option three – sweet potato vines!

After seeing the reward for option three.

Cao Zhi stood up from his seat in a flash.

Sweet potato vines!

It turned out to be sweet potato vine!

When Cao Zhi thought of the per-acre yield of sweet potatoes, he couldn't help but smile.

After all, in this day and age, what we eat depends on God's mood.

High-yield crops are no less than an industrial revolution.

"Fourth Young Master, are you okay?"

Opposite Cao Zhi, Guo Jia and Chen Lin said with a worried look on their faces.

"fine!"

Cao Zhi laughed.

Cao Zhi then looked at Guo Jia and said seriously, "Father, can you send someone to Zhang Yan's army?"

"No, not yet!"

Guo Jia said.

"In that case, please ask Master Guo to tell my father that I will take care of Zhang Yan's situation!"

Cao Zhi said.

"what--"

Seeing that Cao Zhi suddenly became interested in Zhang Yan, Guo Jia was confused.

"What? If this thing succeeds, you will have done a great job!"

Cao Zhi patted Guo Jia's shoulder and said excitedly.

……

To prevent any further complications.

So after discussing it with Guo Jia.

Cao Zhi walked out of the room and came to the yard.

Call Ju Qi and Chen Dao.

Three people and three horses quickly rushed out of the city.

Guo Jia and Chen Lin were left looking at each other in confusion.

……

Outside Yecheng.

Zhang Yan’s army camp.

The Chinese military tent.

Zhang Yan was pacing back and forth at this moment, extremely anxious.

Beside him, a group of trusted generals also had worried looks on their faces.

That's why they are so sad.

Firstly, Cao Cao ordered a military reduction; secondly, Lieutenant General Lin and his entourage had disappeared for a day and a night, with no news of them.

"Report——"

Along with a voice, soldiers rushed into the central military tent.

"But Vice General Lin and the others are back?"

Zhang Yan said happily.

"No, it's not..."

The soldier lowered his head.

"Then what are you rushing in for?!"

Zhang Yan said angrily.

"Reply...Reply, General, Cao Zhi, the fourth son of Minister Cao, is now outside the camp, requesting an audience!"

"Cao Zhi, the fourth son of Minister Cao, why did he come to see me?"

Zhang Yan looked confused.

"How many men did he bring with him?"

There is a general saying.

"Replying to General Zhang, and all the generals, including Master Cao, there are three of us on three horses!"

The soldier said.

"Three men and three riders?"

Zhang Yan couldn't understand.

The other generals in the tent also couldn't understand at this time.

However, although I don't understand it.

But it did not affect Zhang Yan and others' respect for Cao Zhi.

There is no way, after all Cao Zhi is Cao Cao's son.

……

After a cup of tea time.

Welcomed by Zhang Yan and a group of generals.

Cao Zhi and his two companions arrived at the central military tent.

"The army is simple, please forgive me, Fourth Young Master!"

"I wonder why the Fourth Young Master has come here this time?"

After the greetings, Zhang Yan got straight to the point.

Along with Zhang Yan's words.

The other generals in the tent all turned their eyes to Cao Zhi.

Some radicals have already placed their right hands on the hilt of the knife.

"Damn it, I knew it would cause a rebellion!"

"However, for the sake of the sweet potato vines, anyone who dares to resist will be killed!"

After figuring it all out.

Cao Zhi met everyone's gaze and said sternly, "I came here this time for only one thing!"

"That is—disarmament!"
