Chapter 983: Need to go back to Huainan first
Guo Jia twisted his beard and didn't continue talking.
Cao Shu asked anxiously: "What does Mr. Guo want me to do? Please tell me clearly."
"The young master may have to leave Guandu." Guo Jia said: "There is nothing to do with the young master in the subsequent war, so of course there will be no more contributions."
"I think it's a matter. The generals' contributions have been made. It doesn't matter whether I want the contributions." Cao Shu grinned and said, "I just don't know how Mr. Guo planned to let me leave Guandu."
"If you want to leave, you have to say goodbye to Cao Gong." Guo Jia said: "Young Master will find a reason to meet Cao Gong later. After you leave, I will go to Cao Gong to plead for more than 100,000 prisoners. It is not easy for the young master to avoid being punished. Don't worry about these contributions made in Guandu."
"I have said that credit is not important to me." More than 100,000 prisoners were saved, Cao Shu grinned and said, "What is more real than the reputation of the truth is how many real benefits I have gained. With 100,000 strong strength, what else do I need to do with those credits?"
"Young Master can see clearly." Guo Jia said, "I will leave first, and I will ask you to meet Cao Gong later."
After Guo Jia left, Cao Shu got up and came outside the tent.
He ordered Wei Tu who was waiting outside, "Tell the soldiers to prepare for their departure. Perhaps we will have to leave Guandu tonight and return to Shouchun."
"So anxious?" Wei Tu asked: "The Yuan army has been defeated. It was when the Cao family marched into Hebei. The young master left at this time. Could it be that he would not have any credit?"
"I will give you anything you deserve." Cao Shuo said: "I have tens of thousands of elite soldiers under my command. What I want is real benefits."
"What the young master said is, I will tell the soldiers now." Wei Tu stepped down in response.
Cao Shu told Cai Ji again: "Come with me to see my father."
Following Cao Shu, Cai Ji asked, "Young Master has just returned from Cao Gong, why are you going again?"
"At first I went to see my father to plead for more than 100,000 Yuan army prisoners." Cao Shu said: "Since we can't ask for it, we don't need us in the war in Hebei. I have to take you back to Huainan first."
"The young master is not going to ask for those prisoners?" Cai Ji said: "More than 100,000 people, if they are buried."
"They have surrendered." Cao Shu said: "And they are not alien races, they are all people of our Han Dynasty. It is no difference between whom to fight with. If they are alien race prisoners, let alone 100,000, even a million, I will buried them! But these people are not."
"Go to do your best to know your destiny." Although he had discussed the solution to deal with Guo Jia, Cao Shu still did not tell Cai Ji about his plan.
It's useless to tell him. Not to mention that Cai Ji's official position is low, even if he really has a lot of military achievements, no one can change what Cao Cao decided.
Cao Shu refused to express his plans, and Cai Ji could only sigh.
He said to Cao Shuo: "Young Master doesn't have to take it too seriously. Maybe Cao Gong will change his mind."
When he came outside Cao Cao's tent, Cao Shu said to Xu Chu who was coming up, "Brother Zhongkang, please report to my father and say I'll say I'll say goodbye."
"Say your farewell?" Xu Chu was stunned: "Yuan army was defeated, and it was the time to expand the results of the war. Why did the young master leave?"
"The Yuan army has been defeated, and in a short period of time, the army that cannot be gathered to resist our army." Cao Shu said: "My father can lead the army all the way north, and it is just around the corner to take Hebei. It is useless for me to stay here. Brother Zhongkang will report it."
Cao Shu insisted repeatedly, and Xu Chu had to come outside the curtain: "Report to Mr. Cao, the young master came to say goodbye."
Finally conquered Yuan’s army, Cao Cao was not sleepy at all at this time.
When he heard that Cao Shu was coming to say goodbye, he asked Xu Chu: "What's his job?"
Cao Shuo stepped forward and said, "Father, the Jiangdong Army in Huainan is still very active. I received news that when Liu Bei went to Jingzhou, he would definitely encourage Liu Biao in Jingzhou to be enemies with the Cao family. Compared with the Yuan family, Liu Bei is now more threatening, so I beg my father to allow him to go back to Huainan first."
"I should have listened to you and killed Liu Xuande." Cao Cao said, "I didn't expect that this person would bring so much trouble to our Cao family now."
"The past is over." Cao Shuo said: "Don't take it seriously, as long as I am here, Liu Xuande can't do anything to our Cao family."
"It's good if you go back." Cao Cao said: "With you here, I will lead my army into Hebei, and there is no worries."
"Since my father allowed me, I will go and ask the soldiers to prepare now." Cao Shu sued.
"Now? So anxious?" Cao Cao was stunned.
"Some things should be done sooner than later." Cao Shuo said: "Although I have kept several powerful generals in Huainan, if Liu Xuande goes, he may not be able to deal with them. If I could go back earlier, he would be afraid to do anything to Huainan and other places."
"Why do I feel like you are hiding something from me?" Cao Cao said suspiciously at Cao Shuo.
"I can hide anything from my father," Cao Shu said: "No one knows my son is better than my father. I'm afraid no one in this world knows me better than my father."
"Go!" Nothing was seen from Cao Shu's face, and Cao Cao waved his hand and said.
After taking back again, Cao Shu withdrew from Cao Cao's commander's tent.
As soon as he left the handsome tent, he saw Guo Jia coming towards him.
Seeing Cao Shu, Guo Jia nodded to him, and Cao Shu nodded with great since then.
When he arrived outside the tent, Guo Jia asked, "Did Mr. Cao sleep?"
It was Guo Jia's voice, and Cao Cao in the tent said, "It turned out to be Fengxiao, and he came in to speak."
Guo Jia thanked him, opened the curtain and walked in.
After entering the tent, Guo Jia bowed to Cao Cao and asked, "It's getting late, why haven't Cao Gong fallen asleep yet?"
"I sent people to chase Yuan Benchu, but I might not be able to capture him." Cao Cao said: "Now that Yuan's army has been defeated, many things still need to be considered."
He picked up a pile of letters from the table and said to Guo Jia: "Look at Fengxiao, when Yuan Benchu and I confronted each other, there were so many people under my command who secretly had an affair with him."
After taking the letter and reading a few letters, Guo Jia asked, "Duke Cao, do you want to arrest all these people and cut them off?"
"Forget it!" Cao Cao sighed and said, "When Yuan Jun had the advantage, I was not sure about the situation of the battle, let alone people like them. I will make someone burn the letter later, just pretend that these things have never happened."
"Cao Gong is generous." Guo Jia said, "But I think these people must be killed!"
"Why?" Cao Cao asked in surprise: "If all these people are killed, how many people will be involved? Can we afford it?"
