"Okay, the episode is over, everyone can sit down."
After Cao Ren left, Cao Cao immediately returned to the topic.
He called everyone here today not to release pressure on Cao Ren.
After the defeat, the weak prospects of the Wei state, the strong alliance between the emperor and Xun Yu, the unstable hearts of the noble families in the Central Plains and Hebei, frequent ambitions, and the dilemma of being invaded by the Qin army at any time, etc.
Various problems and dilemmas were placed in front of Cao Cao one by one.
Today, there must be a result.
As for what Cao Ren said about Liu Zhang's request for peace, Cao Cao didn't take it seriously at all.
It is even understood that he is pretending to survive, but in fact he suddenly attacks.
"In the battle of Huainan, Gu lost another hundred thousand troops. For the current Wei State, it was no less than a physical and mental injury."
"Currently Liu Zhang seems to be fighting Sun Quan in Jiangdong, but in fact the resistance Sun Quan can form is very limited. I cannot bet my hope on Sun Quan being able to resist Liu Zhang."
"In view of the fact that an unprecedented war will break out between Gu and Liu Zhang at any time! For this reason, I came here to discuss countermeasures with you."
Cao Cao took the lead in bringing the topic to the major issues between Qin and Wei, hoping to use this topic to slowly expand.
Gradually, clues were found about Liu Xie, Xun Yu and other related families.
"King Wei!"
As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, Xiahou Dun stood up immediately.
After competing with Cao Ren for the position of Wei's number one general, Xiahou Dun had obviously undergone serious changes.
If it had been before, Xiahou Dun would never have expressed his opinion so anxiously.
It seems that Cao Ren had a great influence on him.
But for Cao Cao, this is not a bad thing.
It wouldn't be a bad thing if it could inspire Xiahou Dun's competitive character.
Therefore, Cao Cao had high expectations for Xiahou Dun.
"Yuan Rang, do you have any clever ideas?"
Xiahou Dun pondered for a moment and slowly shook his head.
Cao Cao's eyes twitched, wondering if he was blind.
"No?"
Xiahou Dun nodded, confirming Cao Cao's question.
"What are you doing without you standing up!"
Cao Cao cursed loudly and turned red with anger.
I just felt a wave of boredom in my chest, and I couldn't hold it in any more.
I kept yelling at myself for being naive and believing this idiot.
"King Wei, didn't Cao Ren just say that Liu Zhang wants to ask for peace?"
Xiahou Dun's words almost made Cao Cao angry to death.
"Is there something wrong with your mind? Can you believe Liu Zhang's words?"
"Why not?"
Xiahou Dun felt a little aggrieved.
"Well, let me ask you, what if Liu Zhang breaks his promise again?"
Xiahou Dun smiled coldly.
"That's easy, drag Cao Ren out and kill him to correct military law!"
Now Cao Cao understood that Xiahou Dun was still fighting with Cao Ren!
He is still brooding over what happened to Cao Ren taking his position just now!
Cao Cao was really helpless to the extreme.
But he understood Xiahou Dun's anger, so he relaxed his tone and comforted him.
"Yuan Rang, what's the use of beheading Cao Ren? When the Qin army comes to conquer the country, are we going to let him just sit there and wait to perish?"
Cao Cao had already given in, hoping that Xiahou Dun would not bring up the old matter again.
The current situation is chaotic, so we must focus on the overall situation.
But Xiahou Dun didn't listen at all and was still holding on to him.
"King Wei, that's easy, kill Cao Ren now!"
"Based on his behavior this time, beheading him is just the right time to rectify military law!"
"Asshole!"
These words completely angered Cao Cao.
"The situation is critical. The Qin army will invade in large numbers soon. As the leader of the generals, you don't think about how to repel the Qin army. Instead, you only think about harming your colleagues?"
"Looking at your position as the number one general, you are really the best!"
Everyone thought that Xiahou Dun would restrain himself if Cao Cao was angry.
Who would have thought that he would not retreat at all, but instead snorted in retort.
Taking his bad temper to the extreme.
"snort!"
"King Wei, what kind of comrades do you think a useless person like Cao Ren is?"
"Please ask the King of Wei to kill Cao Ren, and I will lead the army to fight the Qin army!"
"good!"
Cao Cao agreed immediately and then asked a question.
"You can kill Cao Ren, but I can kill him immediately."
"But, after killing Cao Ren, what if you can't defeat the Qin army?"
Xiahou Dun turned away, very casually.
"Isn't it normal to not be able to defeat Liu Zhang? Who can guarantee that he can defeat Liu Zhang?"
"Is it possible that King Wei can defeat Liu Zhang?"
"you..."
Cao Cao was not angry to death, but was stunned with shock.
He couldn't believe that this was what Xiahou Dun said!
Could it be that Xiahou Dun was driven crazy by Cao Ren?
"Xiahou Dun, do you know what you are talking about?"
Xiahou Dun nodded with great conviction.
"I know. I just can't bear to see Cao Ren lying about military information!"
"King Wei, do you believe what Cao Ren said?"
Cao Cao said nothing, but his eyes were extremely fierce.
Now that Cao Ren is gone, this matter is over.
Xiahou Dun is still bringing up old things. What on earth does he want to do?
Cao Ren is Cao Cao's younger brother, who has been born and died for decades!
How could he be killed casually?
"Brother, you are crazy! Sit down quickly!"
Xiahou Yuan quickly stepped forward and pushed Xiahou Dun back.
Then he replaced Xiahou Dun and confessed to Cao Cao.
"King Wei, calm down, Xiahou Dun is just confused!"
Everyone also stood up to plead for Xiahou Dun.
"Please, King Wei, calm down!"
Seeing everyone begging for mercy, Cao Cao's expression gradually softened.
"If you dare to talk nonsense again, you will be punished without mercy!"
Xiahou Dun was about to refute as soon as he heard this.
If Cao Ren doesn't kill him, will he be killed instead?
But before he could say anything, Xia Houyuan blocked his mouth first.
Cao Cao had no intention of fighting with Xiahou Dun and waved his hand feebly, which was considered to have revealed the matter.
Although Xiahou Dun said nothing more, Cao Cao felt physically and mentally exhausted.
First he was defeated, and then he was threatened by Liu Xie and Xun Yu.
After finally arriving at his own territory, he summoned his closest confidants, only to be angered by those closest to him one after another.
First it was Cao Ren, then Xiahou Dun.
These messy trivial matters made Cao Cao breathless.
It’s really getting more and more chaotic!
Not only did no one share his burden, but they also kept adding to his troubles!
That is to say, the ability to withstand pressure is strong, otherwise Cao Cao would be driven crazy.
"Everyone, this is an emergency and I don't want to listen to nonsense!"
In order to prevent it from happening again, Cao Cao stuck his sword on the table.
"If anyone dares to look for trouble again, don't blame Gu Jian for being ruthless!"
