Cao Cao sat alone on the bed and picked up the Diary of Heaven's Destiny.
After opening, the first page,
[Wei Yan is really awesome...]
"The words you use are weird. You're awesome. Why do you have to use the word "shit"?"
Cao Cao shook his head, made a comment, and continued reading.
[But I didn’t expect that Chen Dao would actually be together with Wei Yan. When this little brother grows up, his reputation and ability will be second only to Zhao Yun, and he also has the ability to train elite soldiers...]
When Cao Cao saw this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he suppressed his voice and exclaimed: "The person who is second only to Zhao Zilong???"
Who is Zhao Yun? He is Lao Cao's number one general now, and may be his number one general for a long time to come!
When encountering the need to break through a formation, Cao Cao often thinks of Zhao Yun first, and then considers other candidates. This shows Zhao Yun's weight and status in Cao Cao's camp.
Although Zhao Yun's true allegiance is to Lu Yan, this does not prevent Cao Cao from loving and trusting Zi Long. After all, Lu Yan is his most loyal partner and the person who knows Cao Cao best.
Thinking that he had not neglected Chen Dao and his brothers during the day, Cao Cao immediately danced with joy: "Oh, oh, oh, oh...Cao has gained another general. What an unexpected surprise, what a blessing!"
Cao Cao twisted around and searched for a long time but finally sighed: "It's a pity that there is no wine. This situation should be revealed first!"
After finally calming down his excitement, Cao Cao continued to read Lu Yan's diary.
[Calculate the time, it’s been almost four months since this fight...Why hasn’t Xu You made any move yet?]
"Huh?" Lao Cao was immediately puzzled when he saw this, and murmured: "Why is Xu Ziyuan suddenly involved?"
Xu You was Cao Cao's childhood friend. He played with Cao Cao when he was a child, studied together, and grew up together. The two of them knew each other well.
But when Xu You grew up, he took refuge with Yuan Shao, who had a more prominent family background.
Cao Cao didn't hold any grudge against Xu You's choice. After all, 99% of people would choose Yuan Shao, "Except Mr. Lu, hehehe..."
Lao Cao smiled very obscenely. After all, whoever wins Lu Yan will win the world. Compared to Lu Yan, Xu You is not that far behind.
Cao Cao picked at the dimmed candle wick and continued to look down when the fire became brighter.
[I remember that in history, Xu You came to seek refuge with Boss Cao because his plan failed, and Guo Tu took the opportunity to sue him. He knew that his future was bleak, so he came to join him, right?]
"Eh?"
"ah!!!"
Cao Cao stood up suddenly when he saw this. When he reacted, he immediately covered his mouth with both hands.
After Cao Cao confirmed that he would not scream out in surprise, he let go, picked up the diary with trembling hands, and muttered to himself: "Xu You...will abandon Yuan Shao and seek refuge with me?!!"
"Oh my God!"
"Xu You is Yuan Shao's mastermind!!!"
"If Xu You comes to invest, wouldn't Yuan Shao be like a naked little lady and let me, Boss Cao, do whatever he wants?"
Cao Cao was greatly shocked, and his little heart was beating with excitement.
He walked back and forth in the camp a dozen times before he managed to calm down his excitement.
"Let's see what Mr. Lu said..." Cao Cao picked up the diary and said with emotion: "After reading it for so many months, I finally got some useful information... Immortal Lu, I love you so much!"
[What kind of plan did Xu You come up with?]
[Oh, by the way... It seems that the scouts sent by Xu You intercepted Xun Yu's letter urging food.
Xu You used this to conclude that Lao Cao was at the end of his battle, so he suggested that Yuan Shao's troops should be divided into two groups, one to feign attack and containment in Guandu, and the other to raid Xuchang at starry night...]
When Cao Cao saw this, he began to sweat on his forehead.
He suddenly remembered that Lu Yan had been frantically building granaries in Chenliu County, and he also thought of the potato that suddenly descended from the sky like a magic weapon a few years ago...
"It turns out that Mr. Lu has been preparing for the Battle of Guandu, just like when he silently made various preparations in advance to prevent Lu Bu from attacking Yanzhou..."
Thinking of this, Cao Cao suddenly felt a wave of guilt.
"I actually felt a little bit of resentment towards my husband. I dared to complain that my husband didn't reveal the 'secret' to me anymore...I, Cao Cao, am simply not a son of a man!"
Cao Cao stood up, looked in the direction of Lu Yan's military tent, then raised his hands and bowed deeply, saying: "Cao is ashamed of your sincere treatment of your husband... I, Cao Cao, swear that I will give you a hundredfold support for all your actions in the future.
I hope sir can support me, Cao Mengde, as always!"
After being touched by himself, Cao Cao sat down again.
After taking several deep breaths, he continued to look down.
[It seems that it happened that Xu You was slandered by Guo Tujin, which alienated Yuan Shao's trust in him, causing Yuan Shao to reject Xu You's suggestion and severely threaten Xu You. In the end, Xu You was extremely disappointed with Yuan Shao, and then left Yuan Shao.
He turned to Lao Cao.】
"So that's it!" Cao Cao had a guess in his mind, "Guo Tu competed with Xu You for favor, and Xu You was secretly tripped up by Guo Tu, which caused Yuan Shao to alienate Xu You."
"With Xu You's high self-esteem and arrogant character, he must not be willing to let his talents be buried. So it is not impossible for him to turn his back on Yuan Shao and join me, Lao Cao."
"After all, we were just kids! We played together, read together, slapped the boards together, and peeked together...ahem..."
Thinking of the carefree years of his childhood, Cao Cao couldn't help but smile.
"Xu Ziyuan, Xu Ziyuan, I really look forward to your arrival as soon as possible!"
[Sigh... I wouldn't dare to act rashly if Xu You didn't bring that news.
After all, that is the easiest opportunity to defeat Yuan Shao. Although history has changed now, at least I still have some ideas, right? I'd better be more cautious... I hope Xu You won't disappoint me.】
"So that's it!" Cao Cao suddenly realized. No wonder Lu Yan has been more aggressive recently. "It turns out that Mr. Yuan Shao is afraid that Yuan Shao's biggest flaw will change after the secret is leaked, so he deliberately hides his clumsiness!"
Cao Cao still had some unfinished ideas, so the diary ended abruptly at this point.
[I miss my big bed at home. It’s really uncomfortable to sleep on this tent floor bunk...]
"Alas...I still have more to say!" Cao Cao smacked his lips and looked at the last sentence in the diary.
After a long time, Cao Cao came to his senses and suddenly shouted outside: "Here comes someone!"
"What are your orders, my lord?" the guard came to Cao Cao's camp and asked.
"I'll go to my Xuchang mansion at full speed overnight to get the tiger skin that Dian Wei gave me. I'll have to hand it over to Lu Qiaoqi before dark tomorrow at most!"
"Ah?" The guard was confused by Cao Cao's order.
"Ah what? The weather is about to get colder. Give the tiger skin to Lu Piao to cushion the bed, so that he will not get sick and affect his plans!"
"Ah?! I'm taking orders!"
The personal guards took the order and left, but they were completely confused in their hearts.
"Lu Qiaoqi is an innate master. He has long been immune to cold and heat, and is immune to all diseases..."
As he walked, he muttered:
"Besides, it's only September now, so it will take some time for the weather to get colder... What kind of style do you have, my lord?"
