"What Brother Chong said is absolutely true. I will definitely serve as a guide for the Cao family!"
Due to the current situation, Cao Pi chose to compromise.
That extremely hypocritical smile made the other three people feel disgusted!
However, an internal crisis was finally resolved temporarily.
"Brother Zhang, Brother Zhi, how do you think we should get to Youzhou?"
Although Cao Pi looked pleasant, Cao Zhang was still a little unhappy.
"Nonsense, of course we will go to Bohai first, then enter Youzhou, and go straight to Youbeiping."
Cao Pi felt as if he had eaten shit.
How could he not know this path? If it was feasible, why would he talk nonsense!
The damn thing is that there is nothing he can do against Cao Zhang.
At this time, Cao Chong stood up again.
"Second brother, this road is not possible."
"Why?"
"Liu Zhang claimed that he would send naval forces to attack the Bohai Sea. The defenses there must be very tight. As the saying goes, there are many people with mixed eyes, and it is inevitable that the whereabouts will be exposed."
"Once the civil and military officials in Yecheng learn that our brothers secretly escaped from Yecheng, the consequences will be disastrous."
Cao Zhang was stunned, and then he realized that he had wrongly blamed Cao Pi.
However, his face would never allow him to apologize, so he could only ignore Cao Pi.
"Brother Chong, what do you think?"
Cao Chong looked around and pointed out a direction.
"Second brother, we should go straight north and go to the boundary of Youzhou first."
"When we arrive in Youzhou, we first go to Jixian to look for Tian Yu, the governor of Youzhou. Father said that Tian Yu is a versatile man in both civil and military affairs and will definitely be of great help to us!"
"Furthermore, with Tian Yu's help, it will be easier for eldest brother to further control Youzhou!"
Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi both nodded slightly to express their approval. Only Cao Pi had a look of doubt in his eyes.
"Brother Chong, when did your father say this?"
Cao Chong answered this question without much thought.
"Brother, you all have left. I chatted with my father for a while."
"Oh? What were you talking about?"
Cao Pi's heart suddenly became anxious, fearing that Cao Cao would leave something to rely on for Cao Chong.
"nothing."
Cao Chong secretly scolded himself for talking too much and quickly shook his head in denial.
But it was the same, Cao Pi was curious, and it was even more impossible to let Cao Chong go.
"Brother Chong, what exactly did you say?"
"Didn't you just say that only by working together can we brothers achieve great things?"
"Why, you're not willing to share it now? Or do you mean that you don't take your eldest brother seriously at all?"
"No!"
Cao Chong quickly denied it, fearing that Cao Pi would blame him again.
"Then tell me! In front of Brother Zhang and Brother Zhi!"
This time, Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi also looked at Cao Chong with doubts.
After all, even the two of them were very curious about what Cao Cao had explained.
"I..."
Cao Chong hesitated for a while, wanting to escape.
But the three of them refused to give up, as if they would not give up until they spoke out.
Cao Chong had no choice but to reveal all of Cao Cao's plans.
Including the bloody battle with the Han army in Youzhou, he fled to Liaodong after being defeated by the Han army and defected to Gongsun Kang.
Then he took the opportunity to kill Gongsun Kang and seize power, went north to Goguryeo, and reorganized Cao Wei's forces based on Goguryeo.
Cao Pi and the other three were dumbfounded and amazed.
No one thought that Cao Cao had such a complete plan!
They once thought that Cao Cao really wanted them to retreat to the mountains and forests!
"Father is worthy of being a father. No one can compare to such a shocking plan!"
"What if Liu Zhang conquers the world? If we occupy Goguryeo, we are already invincible!"
Cao Pi was the most excited and kept shouting.
I thought that after Cao Cao's defeat, he should step down because he had gone too far with King Wei.
Now, there is hope again that has always been said to be a loner!
As long as he captures Goguryeo, Cao Pi will die as a loner!
It doesn't matter whether he can fight back or not.
For Cao Pi, it doesn't matter where he calls himself king.
In Goguryeo, it’s happier!
"Ha ha ha ha..."
The three brothers all looked up to the sky and laughed, and suddenly Cao Pi was shocked.
Looking at Cao Chong again, his eyes couldn't help but bulge.
Why did Cao Cao leave Cao Chong alone and tell him this?
Could it be that Cao Chong is more qualified to inherit the Cao family?
Thinking of Cao Cao's love for Cao Chong and his reproach to him, Cao Pi felt his heart was blocked.
The corners of his mouth were still upturned, and his face was still smiling, but his heart was gradually becoming colder.
Cao Chong must not stay!
At this moment, Cao Pi became more determined in his thoughts.
Whether in Youzhou or Goguryeo, as long as Cao Chong is alive, his position as King of Wei will never be secure!
"Ahem... Brother Chong, I wonder if my father has any other instructions?"
Cao Chong shook his head.
"Gone."
Cao Pi raised his eyebrows, obviously not believing it.
"Brother Chong, are you really gone?"
Cao Chong was really speechless.
"No more, really no more."
"Then there is something about the battle with Liu Zhang in the near future. Do you want to hear it, brother?"
Cao Pi's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly.
"Listen!"
This matter seemed to have nothing to do with him, but it actually had a lot to do with it.
What if Cao Cao wins?
In that case, wouldn't he feel more at ease?
"All right..."
Cao Chong nodded and agreed.
It won't work if he doesn't agree, Cao Pi will definitely never stop.
However, when Cao Chong told everything, Cao Pi's expression suddenly became strange.
Extremely uncomfortable, even a little regretful!
Seemingly, it would be better not to listen.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
Cao Pi breathed out impatiently.
"Brother Chong, according to your opinion, wouldn't my father win less and lose more in this battle?"
"yes..."
Cao Chong didn't hide it and admitted it directly.
"Actually, it's really difficult to defeat Liu Zhang."
"Even if the family does not rebel, working together with my father to attack Liu Zhang is not a sure win."
"Once the family is involved in a conspiracy, my father will almost certainly be defeated!"
"Brother, it can really be said now that Cao's future courage rests on you!"
Cao Pi kept swallowing, and the pressure finally rose.
Before that, I still hoped for the possibility that Cao Cao could win.
After learning the news, I almost completely denied it.
In the future, if you want to be a loner and secure the position of King of Wei, you can only count on yourself.
Moreover, we must first integrate the power of Youzhou to compete with the Han army. After being defeated, he traveled to Liaodong and gained Gongsun Kang's trust. After that, he occupied the magpie's nest and used the power of Liaodong to go north to Goguryeo.
Only when every step meets expectations and no problems occur can the goal be achieved.
For Cao Pi, it is more than just a difficult word!
Regarding Cao Chong, we can only let it go for the time being.
"Three brothers, let's go! Head to Youzhou first!"
