Chapter 830 Learning

At this time, the Great Wei Palace, Yangxin Hall.

"Oh? The Marquis of Hanzhong is willing to go to Jiaozhou?"

Cao Cao looked at Cheng Yu in front of him in surprise.

He didn't expect that Bai Feng actually agreed!

Moreover, I agreed quite readily.

Cheng Yu nodded heavily:

"He only brought 20,000 soldiers. I was afraid that there were not enough, so I asked the Marquis of Hanzhong if he needed reinforcements."

"However, the Marquis of Hanzhong only said that General Cao Chun needs to go with the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry."

"The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry only has 5,000 people in total. The 25,000 people, including Jiaozhou, are only 200,000, and the total is only 220,000."

"Old minister, I heard that the Sun-Liu coalition has now united the surrounding foreign races. The army is at least 500,000, and it may be 600,000!"

"If there are only so many soldiers, I'm afraid it won't be enough."

When Cao Cao heard this, he burst out laughing:

"Hahahaha! Zhongde, you underestimate our Hanzhong Hou!"

"I believe that the Marquis of Hanzhong can definitely do it."

Cheng Yu suddenly said in confusion:

"Why is Your Majesty so sure?"

"The difference in the number of people is really not small."

Cao Cao smiled calmly and said:

"Then let me ask you, how many people did the Marquis of Hanzhong use to destroy the Xiongnu?"

Cheng Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment and said:

"Ten thousand cavalry."

"How many people are there in the Huns?"

"One hundred thousand, no, probably around 150,000."

"Did the Marquis of Hanzhong win?"

"Won, but..."

Cheng Yu wanted to say something more, but Cao Cao raised his hand and interrupted:

"Let me ask you again, how many troops did the Marquis of Hanzhong bring with him when he went to exterminate the Qiang people?"

"Ten thousand cavalry."

"How many soldiers do the Qiang have?"

"More than four hundred thousand."

Cao Cao raised his eyebrows slightly and continued:

"The Marquis of Hanzhong upholds the principle of having the best troops, not too many."

"Do you really think that I haven't sent soldiers to the Marquis of Hanzhong?"

"Many times, the Marquis of Hanzhong declined politely. The only soldiers he needed were his own ten or twenty thousand."

"So, you don't need to worry too much."

Cheng Yu nodded weakly.

But in fact, Cheng Yu was still a little unsure.

When Bai Feng destroyed the Qiang and Huns, he indeed had only ten thousand soldiers, and he had to deal with troops ten or even dozens of times larger than his own.

However, that is an attack and a surprise attack.

Right now, there are up to 600,000 soldiers attacking the city!

If we were to defend the city, there would be a large number of casualties anyway. How could 200,000 soldiers be enough?

Moreover, I am afraid that there are no more than 200,000 soldiers in Jiaozhou now. Maybe 150,000 would be good.

During this period, the Sun-Liu coalition forces frequently sent troops to harass.

The number of soldiers who died in battle alone must have been 30,000, if not 50,000.

How to deal with so few soldiers?

What's more, Cheng Yu also read the battle report and said that the Sun-Liu coalition seemed to be stronger than before. The martial arts of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu alone had improved by an unknown amount.

How can this Qiang man be compared with top-notch generals like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei?

However, since Bai Feng is so confident and Cao Cao also trusts him very much, Cheng Yu also knows that nothing he says is of any use.

Therefore, Cheng Yu couldn't help but ask:

"Your Majesty, that General Cao Chun..."

Cao Cao waved his hand and said:

"Let Zihe go and take all the tigers and leopards with him."

"Xu Chu's Tiger Guards are still guarding Xu Du today."

"The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry itself is not suitable for patrolling. In this case, it is better to comply with their wishes and let them go to the front line to have a good time."

After hearing Cao Cao's words, Cheng Yu nodded heavily and prepared to retreat.

At this moment, Cao Cao stopped Cheng Yu and said:

"Zhongde, wait a minute."

"You go to see Chong'er first, let Chong'er put on armor, and go to fight with Zihe and Hubaoqi."

"As for that Zhou Bujie, if you want to take it with you, take it with you."

When Cheng Yu heard this, he immediately said in a panic:

"This... Your Majesty cannot do this!"

"Master Cao Chong is a scholar, how can he go to the front line to fight?"

"What should I do if I hurt Mr. Cao Chong?"

"On the battlefield, the sword has no eyes."

Cao Cao frowned slightly and said:

"When did I say that I would let him go to the battlefield to kill the enemy?"

"Let him watch from the side, watch and learn well, and follow Hanzhong Marquis so as not to get lost."

"When he feels that the time is right, the Marquis of Hanzhong will naturally let him go into battle to kill the enemy."

"If you want to become a prince, you must at least be both civil and military."

"If you only know how to write but not use martial arts, how can you do it?"

Cao Cao's words are actually a metaphor for Cao Zhi.

Cao Zhi now disappoints Cao Cao so much.

When he went out to fight, Cao Zhi couldn't do it. He also liked to drink all day long, and he was drunk and unconscious every day.

Although I have poetic talent, what is the use of having only poetic talent? Can you become an emperor?

However, Cao Cao is now too disappointed with Cao Zhi and Cao Pi.

Rather than giving them another chance to correct themselves, it would be better to place all their hopes on Cao Chong.

What's more, Chong'er's body is already weak, so going to the military camp and exercising with Bai Feng is considered to strengthen his body.

Although some plague situations often occur in military camps, with Bai Feng here, there is no need to worry at all.

What's more, Cao Cao has a more important plan.

Now Cao Chong has followed his instructions to see Bai Feng.

Cao Pi and Cao Zhi must have known about this.

Cao Cao knew all too well about his two unsatisfactory sons.

If they are not protected, they will do something drastic, and it is not impossible that they may even harm Cao Chong's life.

Therefore, Cao Cao still kept an eye on it.

Let Cao Chong take this opportunity to go to the military camp and leave Xuchang.

The current front line of Jiaozhou is really safer for Cao Chong than Xuchang.

This Xuchang is really a place of right and wrong.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao's face gradually darkened.

It seems that it is time to reorganize the environment in Xuchang.

If that doesn't work, just move the capital.

The noble clan here has long been entrenched. If it cannot be eradicated, even if Xuchang is abandoned, these noble clan cannot be allowed to influence the court like this again.

Today's nobles, except for the Xun family who have good relations with Bai Feng and have devoted themselves to the court and have almost given up their status as nobles, Cao Cao does not look down on any other nobles.

If he didn't need the help of the nobles, Cao Cao would have just wiped out all these nobles.

What to do with them?

Aren't you causing trouble for yourself?

However, this kind of thing naturally needs to be considered in the long term.

This is why Cao Cao asked Cao Chong to approach Bai Feng, not a big noble clan.

As long as he cuts off his relationship with the nobles, even if he can't deal with the nobles before his death, it will be much easier for Chong'er to deal with them later.
