Chapter 402: Inevitably an Explanation
Even if a person is quick-witted, can he think of the strategy as soon as he read this article? Cao Cao really doubts whether this guy has other channels and knows the news...
After thinking about it carefully, this guy didn't seem particularly surprised after he learned the news.
"I really only know the news now...including this weekly newspaper..." Wang Yong raised the newspaper in his hand innocently.
"Tell me, how did you think of the previous strategy... and, what did you think of Yuan Shu's claim to be emperor?" Cao Cao looked at Wang Yong with interest. Anyway, all his eyes were like 'I don't believe you'.
"It doesn't matter whether Yuan Shu calls him emperor or not. He will have to deal with her sooner or later. It's just that the other party's time to be emperor is wrong!" Wang Yong replied.
"Indeed, let alone the fact that Qinghuang is not accepting now, just saying that she is the emperor, we have to deal with her even in order to maintain the majesty of the court. Xuzhou was already exhausted by the war these days. It was originally impossible to launch another full-scale attack this year, and it would be no problem to fight... If Lu Bu was given a year to recuperate, everything would be hard to say." Cao Cao sighed.
"So we can't go to attack Yuan Shu!" Wang Yong spread his hands, "Everyone is a Han minister, some people claim to be emperor, and even when His Majesty is still in power, what is this? This is a plot to rebel! As a Han official, it is only natural to be ordered to seek rebel. In this matter, even Yuan Shao is not good at helping Yuan Shu. This is the most beneficial thing for us at the moment!"
When Cao Cao heard the "family", he raised his eyebrows. Did this kid say this word on purpose? Then he thought about it and thought that he should have misled his tongue, so he didn't deliberately make fun of anything.
"Lu Bu is not surprised, Liu Bei can understand why Chen and Sun Ce are included?" Cao Cao continued to ask.
"Chen and Yuan Shu are also considered to be a grudge. In addition, he also has 3,000 combat soldiers. If he can conquer a few more counties, it will be considered as a way to recover lost territories for the court. At the same time, based on this, it is also a good thing to force Sun Ce to give up Wu County." Wang Yong replied.
He paused and continued to explain: "No need to say that Sun Ce has taken so many benefits from us, so he has to do some effort. In addition, he was under Yuan Shu's command before. If he did not send troops, then the suspicion of Yuan Shu's remnant will probably be difficult to clear!"
"The problem is that Lu Bu has an engagement with Yuan Shu!" Cao Cao reminded.
"As for the current people's livelihood situation in Xuzhou, it is not possible to recover for two or three years. If you want to recover quickly, you have to complete the supply through robbery. In recent years, Huainan area has been relatively wealthy under the governance of Yuan Shu, and in the southern part of Pei County, I am afraid that Lu Bu hopes to take it down, right?" Wang Yong was not worried at all. "There are also side effects, that is, if Lu Bu sends troops, then we will find another excuse to conquer next time."
Speaking of this, he hesitated and wanted to speak but stopped.
"If you have anything to say directly, I won't be angry because of a few words..." Cao Cao replied coldly.
"My lord's gray silk today is also very beautiful!" Wang Yong said very honestly.
"I'm not wearing it for you to see! Let's talk nonsense again?" Cao Cao couldn't keep his cold look and directly showed an expression of wanting to hit someone.
"Master, you said it, you won't get angry because of a few words!" Wang Yong took a step back directly.
"Speak serious, and then consider whether to deduct your salary based on the content." Cao Cao tilted his head and looked down on Wang Yong.
"Lu Bu himself has no ambition to fight for dominance in the world... The ambitious one should be Chen Gong." Wang Yong replied seriously.
"How did you see it... Speaking of which, you have indeed been to her for a while." Cao Cao didn't believe it at first, but considering that Wang Yong had been to Lu Bu for a while, he was a little confused.
"She is not good at speaking, and she relies on other people's guesses for all her ideas. Who can accurately know her ideas? Under her command, I found that only Chen Gong and Lu Wen were like this. Other ministers seemed to have no choice but to know what their lord wanted to express... For a long time, Lu Bu's strategy was hosted by Chen Gong!" Wang Yong replied.
"It's impossible for Lu Bu to be controlled by Chen Gong, right?" Cao Cao also expressed his own opinion.
"Lu Bu may be dissatisfied, but she is too simple and she is ruthless and can't speak, and she will easily compromise with others... at least after initial contact, she will give her subordinates this feeling." Wang Yong thought for a while.
He paused and continued, "So, if she could separate her from Chen Gong, he might be able to subdue her and there was no need to attack him again!"
"I will include your point of view as reference!" Cao Cao nodded and began to ponder. She was not familiar with Lu Bu, but she had never seen her talk a few times. Perhaps it was as Wang Yong said, not good at speaking.
How come a guy who has problems with communication, why did he lead a group of people to fight? As a result, someone is giving orders! Needless to think about it, he also knows that this person is Chen Gong!
"To be honest, my relationship with Gongtai was pretty good before, and Zhang Miao was pretty good, but these guys who had a good relationship with me betrayed me in the end..." Cao Cao felt a little moved. As a woman, she was betrayed one after another, and the degree of damage she suffered from being hit by men must be much stronger than that of men.
"It's nothing more than interests. Otherwise, with the charm of the lord, who would be willing to betray it?" Wang Yong said meaningfully.
"Is this teasing me?" Cao Cao raised his hand, looking like he was about to fight.
"I am just sighing at the charm of my lord!" Wang Yong said seriously.
"You have become more and more arrogant recently... I really think I can't do anything to you, right?" Cao Cao said angrily. Even though he said that, he still enjoyed being praised like this.
"There is still something to worry about!" Wang Yong thought for a while, "Chen has been appointed as the governor of Wujun County and General Andong, but has not taken office so far. In short, Chen used to be under Yuan Shu's command like Sun Ce."
"Are you worried that Chen will surrender to Sun Ce?" Cao Cao thought.
"I'm not worried at all. Chen even dared to attack Yuan Shu at the beginning. Unfortunately, he was beaten up and ran to Xia Pi. Now he is stationed in Haixi County. Sun Ce only came over in the same year, and the two have no intersection. He was just worried whether he would take advantage of Sun Ce's north to kill him and then replace him..." Wang Yong thought about it. Chen did do that in history, but failed. He finally fled north and defected to Yuan Shao.
"Isn't this good?" Cao Cao was a little surprised. Chen was still an official in the court. To put it bluntly, Sun Ce was nothing more than a rebel who was separating Jiangdong.
"But there are many capable ministers and military generals under Sun Ce's command. His sister Sun Quan's ability to govern is far higher than Sun Ce. Even if Sun Ce dies, he can inherit everything from Sun Ce immediately. The key is that Chen's plan will succeed? If it fails, the attack on Yuan Shu will not succeed, but will start to be in chaos first." Wang Yong spread his hands.
