Cao Cao was really patient.
Time passed little by little, and the frown did not relax at all.
He looked like he was racking his brains and thinking hard.
Occasionally look left and right, look around, and start thinking again.
I really thought about what Ma Su mentioned slowly and carefully and used it to the extreme.
Cao Cao was not in a hurry, and Ma Di was certainly not in a hurry either.
Looking left and right, looking here and there, it seemed as if this place was the Qin camp.
As casual as you want.
However, other Wei generals and soldiers were not so relaxed.
Everyone felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy, and some were already sweating profusely.
The tension is everywhere.
After waiting for a long time, it was not until Xiahou Dun returned that Cao Cao made any move.
"King Wei!"
Cao Cao quickly winked at Xiahou Dun.
The latter understood and walked quickly towards Cao Cao.
Ma Su became more righteous and took several steps back.
Once you're sure you can't hear the whispers, don't look away.
Xiahou Dun looked questioning.
Cao Cao nodded in confirmation.
"How about it?"
"King Wei, the Qin army is indeed behind us, and the number is very large!"
Cao Cao exhaled angrily.
Even though I had been mentally prepared, hearing it again was still very depressing.
"how many?"
Xiahou Dun pursed his lips.
"About...about...one or two hundred thousand..."
"That's two hundred thousand?"
Xiahou Dun wanted to shake his head and deny it, but he really couldn't make up his mind.
There was no choice but to remain silent.
Preparing for the worst is always better than planning for the best!
"Why..."
Cao Cao sighed softly, feeling really speechless!
How come the retreat was cut off by the Qin army in such a confused manner?
More than that, there was no one to blame.
If you want to say who is responsible, it is Cao Cao himself.
Who told him to order the entire army to just move forward and not to worry about anything else?
After passing Xiquyang, Cao Cao relaxed his vigilance and felt that there would be no problems at all.
All the scouts and sentries were withdrawn.
Cao Cao himself was curious about where he got his confidence in the first place.
That is to say, the Qin army did not take advantage of the situation to launch an attack, otherwise it would have been defeated and fled at this moment!
After thinking about it, Cao Cao still placed his hope on Ma Di.
The Qin army took all the initiative but did not make further attacks. There must be a reason!
"Mr. Ma Di!"
Ma Su turned his head and walked over with a smile.
"Oh? Has King Wei thought about it?"
Cao Cao also forced out a wry smile.
"I'm so talented and short-sighted, please give me some advice, sir."
As soon as the words came out, Cao Cao's face turned red.
The dignified King of Wei, who was fifty years old, actually asked a boy with a yellow mouth for advice.
This is really embarrassing!
It's a pity that it's not enough if you don't throw it away.
You might have to beg for help later.
"hehe..."
Ma Su smiled lightly, feeling very happy.
"King Wei's words are serious, how dare Ma Su?"
Cao Cao lamented in his heart, but he still had to ask for help.
"Please give me some advice from Mr. Ma Di!"
Ma Su hesitated for a moment and then nodded slowly.
"Okay, then let me explain it to King Wei!"
"Sun Quan used his arms as a chariot to resist the king of Qin! It is natural for him to be destroyed!"
"In the battle of Liyang, Sun Quan's 100,000-strong army suffered 70,000 casualties, which proves everything!"
"At that time, the King of Qin could have taken advantage of the situation to rush into Jiangdong and destroy Sun Quan in one fell swoop, but why didn't the King of Qin do it?"
Cao Cao asked curiously,
"Why?"
Ma Su smiled proudly.
"Because someone is here."
"who?"
"Gu Yong."
"hiss..."
Cao Cao took a deep breath and cursed in his heart.
It was indeed that beast!
"What did Gu Yong do?"
Seeing how eager Cao Cao was, Ma Di was not in a hurry to answer.
"King Wei, what conditions do you think Gu Yong needs to use to prevent King Qin from crossing the river to destroy Wu?"
"I see..."
Cao Cao finally came to his senses.
After all the words have been said, if Cao Cao still doesn't understand, he is really stupid.
Gu Yong must have promised Liu Zhang to help him trap him in order to ease Liu Zhang's march to Jiangdong.
If you look at it this way, then everything is a conspiracy against Cao Cao!
What is the siege and annihilation of Liu Zhang? This is simply the siege and annihilation of Cao Wei!
"Damn it! This traitor!"
Cao Cao kept cursing and was so angry that his teeth itched.
How could he be so stupid and fall for this beast!
"King Wei!"
Ma Su called out and pointed to the south.
"Fifty miles south from here is where you agreed to ambush, isn't it?"
Cao Cao nodded shamefully.
Now that we have said it, it’s really boring not to admit it anymore.
"good..."
"King Wei, you can send someone to see what's going on there now?"
Cao Cao quickly winked at Xiahou Dun.
Xiahou Dun understood this and immediately went to find his personal guards.
Not long after, a fast horse galloped away from the formation.
Cao Cao once again put on a praying look.
"Mr. Ma Su, things are already like this, so I won't beat around the bush anymore."
"I wonder why you are here, sir? Please tell me frankly!"
Although some people are alive, they are actually dead.
Just like Cao Cao now.
He didn't understand that doing nothing could kill him.
Why did the Qin army suddenly appear, and why did Ma Di come to find him?
Ma Su straightened his body and slightly cupped his hands.
"Ma Su's coming here is naturally the result of the King of Qin's instructions!"
"I am all ears."
"Who is Sun Quan? A traitor to the Han Dynasty! A blue-eyed boy, treacherous and shameless! How can the King of Qin be so wise and powerful as to associate with such a villain?"
"The King of Qin has said more than once that in this world, only the King of Wei is worthy of being on an equal footing with him!"
Cao Cao was frightened in his heart. He really didn't expect that he would be evaluated like this.
"Mr. Ma Di, I'm telling you the truth! Gu and King Qin have cherished each other since the day they met!"
"Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the princes have been divided into separate kingdoms, but no one can get into Gu De's eyes, except the King of Qin!"
"The only heroes in the world are King Qin and Gu!"
Ma Su nodded repeatedly and extended his thumb to express his approval.
"To be honest, King Qin often talks about this!"
Cao Cao was shocked and very moved.
"Really?"
"certainly!"
Ma Su nodded heavily, leaving no room for doubt.
"The King of Qin also said that the emperor is assisted by the King of Wei. If it were another person, the King of Qin would have led his army to kill him."
"In the world today, only the King of Qin and the King of Wei are the true loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty!"
"They are like big-eared thieves, blue-eyed children, etc. They are just using the name of reviving the Han Dynasty to benefit themselves!"
Cao Cao's eyes turned red and he almost cried.
"I didn't expect that the person who understands Gu best is the King of Qin!"
