Poof!
Before Cao Cao could reply, Liu Xie laughed out loud.
He immediately realized that Xun Yu was mocking Cao Cao for not being able to defeat Liu Zhang.
Just this laughter made Xun Yu and Cao Cao's expressions darken.
If nothing else works, will you just take pleasure in others' misfortune?
Cao Cao didn't get used to it and snorted angrily.
"Laughing? Do you still have the nerve to smile?"
"When Liu Zhang's Qin army arrives here, let's see how long you can remain emperor!"
Xun Yu also sighed in disappointment.
To be honest, in his heart he looked down on Liu Xie at all.
Selfish but greedy for life and afraid of death, high-minded but short-sighted.
With this kind of ability and character, let alone being an emperor and ruling the world, even being an ordinary person is not qualified.
Xun Yu had no choice.
Liu Bian died, and the only legitimate heir was Liu Xie.
If you want to be a loyal person loyal to the Han Dynasty, you can only loyal to Liu Xie, there is no other choice.
Furthermore, deposing and establishing an emperor has always been against the principles of a minister.
Xun Yu cherished his reputation so much, how could he have such an idea?
No matter how mediocre Liu Xie was, Xun Yu would still help him.
This is his third choice in life after Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.
It was also regarded as the last choice in life by Xun Yu.
Therefore, from the moment he made the decision, Xun Yu had no way out.
Even if his teeth are broken, he can only forcefully swallow it into his stomach!
Fortunately, Liu Xie is not without merit.
He listened to Xun Yu very much!
Right now he was like a child who had done something wrong, looking apologetic and guilty.
The hand holding Xun Yu's arm was also extremely tight.
"Master Xun, I..."
Xun Yu shook his head gently.
"Has your Majesty ever heard a word?"
"What?"
"If you want your subject to die, if you don't die, it will be considered disloyal!"
Liu Xie trembled slightly and was so excited that he couldn't express it in words.
This sentence already showed Xun Yu's absolute determination to him!
"Master Xun..."
"His Majesty..."
"Ahem... Is it interesting?"
When the monarch and his ministers were excited, Cao Cao coughed uncomfortably.
"I don't have that much time to spare. Look at the deep friendship you have here!"
"Your Majesty, Mr. Xun, if nothing happens, I have to leave."
"Wait a moment!"
Xun Yu stepped forward and stopped Cao Cao.
"Why, Xun Lingjun still has some advice?"
After all, after more than ten years of friendship between monarch and minister, Cao Cao still couldn't bear to speak harshly to each other.
He turned his head and smiled.
"Xun Lingjun is different from some people. If you are a smart person, you should do some smart things."
"Of course, everyone has their own ambitions and can't force it."
"However, if Xun Lingjun wants to say something meaningless, I would advise you to save it."
Xun Yu nodded expressionlessly.
"What King Wei said is absolutely true. I have learned from you."
"Don't dare!"
Cao Cao raised his hand and refused.
"Xun Lingjun, please tell me what you have to say, Gu... I'm very busy!"
"King Wei, after the defeat in Huainan, there must be very few soldiers left under your command, right?"
Cao Cao frowned, a little unhappy.
I agreed very well, but once I opened my mouth, things changed.
"If Mr. Xun Ling wants to make fun of Gu Gu, he should stop it as soon as possible."
"Back then, Chen Lin wrote an article against thieves and scolded eighteen generations of Gu Gu's clan. So what?"
"No."
Xun Yu shook his head.
"I'm not such a boring person."
"Now that Liu Zhang's ambition is in Jiangdong, the Central Plains can get a moment of respite for the time being."
"However, Sun Quan's destruction is a foregone conclusion, and the respite will not last long!"
"Does Xun Lingjun look down on Sun Quan too much?"
Cao Cao sneered, holding the completely opposite attitude.
"The Sun family has been in Jiangdong for three lives. People's hearts are loyal to them and their soldiers are loyal to them!"
"Putting aside the conspiracy for now, as long as Sun Quan seizes the dangerous city and defends it, he can hold Liu Zhang back!"
"No matter how strong the Qin army is, they are still humans. As long as they are humans, they can't do anything to the city! Therefore, as long as Sun Quan is not confused and stupid, it will not be destroyed overnight!"
These perceptions are not lies made by Cao Cao to refute Xun Yu.
It is the result that Cao Cao summed up based on the situation and all the situations in Jiangdong.
During the flight from Huainan to Xuchang, Cao Cao did nothing but study the war between Qin and Wu.
At the moment, it seems that everything is going well for the Qin army and Sun Quan's demise is imminent, but Cao Cao firmly believes that it will never end like this.
Sun Quan's troops were stretched thin. It was not that he had no troops, but that most of his troops took the initiative and went to quell the rebellion.
The Qin army could easily land in Jiangdong and even quickly capture a large area of territory in the early stage.
However, as long as Sun Quan reacts and assembles superior troops to defend key areas, he can immediately stop the decline.
The main reason is that the terrain in Jiangdong is very suitable for defense.
There are many mountains in Jiangdong, and many important towns are built on the mountains.
It has the advantage of being naturally easy to defend and difficult to attack.
No matter how strong the Qin army is, can they still break through the city wall with their heads?
In Cao Cao's view, unless Sun Quan had a seizure and gathered his troops to fight Liu Zhang to the death.
Otherwise, a deadlock is inevitable.
After conquering one city and one place, who knows how long it will take the Year of the Monkey and the Horse to completely occupy Jiangdong?
Of course, this situation is what Cao Cao wants to see most.
It's best to drag it on for ten or eight years!
Although the possibility is completely zero.
But it can be as little as one year or as much as two or three years.
During this time, Cao Cao could recruit and train troops on a large scale, and then make effective responses.
In short, the situation seems to be gloomy, but in fact it is still beneficial to Wei.
However, for Cao Cao, holding back the Qin army was only temporary.
Sooner or later, a bloody battle will break out with the Qin army.
The next battle is the key.
It was also a huge headache for Cao Cao.
So far, there is still no hope of victory.
Fortunately, there is still time.
You can slowly think of ways to defeat the enemy, and sooner or later you will have a solution!
"Wen Ruo, you know Gu Hegu's Wei State very well, and there is no need for Gu to lie to you."
"Liu Zhang was too conceited and insisted on destroying Sun Quan before seeking to move north. His conceitedness gave Gu a chance to breathe."
"If he abandons Sun Quan and immediately gathers his troops to go north, it will be really dangerous!"
"To put it bluntly, I don't have any means to fight against it. I'm afraid I have to give up most of the city's land!"
"But Liu Zhang won't! He is conceited and pretentious!"
"This is Liu Zhang's biggest weakness!"
