    Hearing Man Chong¡¯s resolute and affirmative answer, Cao Cao couldn¡¯t help but glance sideways at his subordinate.

    "Why?" Cao Cao became interested.

    Cao Cao received intelligence that Sun Quan was attacking Hefei. At that time, he was full of pessimism about the situation in Hefei. He felt that Man Chong could resist for a few days at most, and then he could no longer hold on.  He immediately mobilized his troops and rushed to Hefei with reinforcements, hoping to get to Hefei as soon as possible so that the situation would not become irreversibly bad.

    It¡¯s not that he doesn¡¯t believe in Man Chong, but that Man Chong has no experience in leading troops independently before, and Hefei has insufficient troops, so he feels that Hefei will be difficult to sustain.

    Unexpectedly, Hefei, with Man Chong's persistence, not only withstood Sun Quan's attack, but also prevented Sun Quan from taking much advantage. Sun Quan attacked Hefei for so many days, and even the city gate of Hefei was not broken.  This cannot but be said to be beyond Cao Cao's expectation.

    Now hearing Man Chong¡¯s resolute answer, Cao Cao was looking forward to Man Chong¡¯s next answer.

    "King Wei," Man Chong thought for a while and said, "King Wei has made a lot of concessions in order to win over Sun Quan, the king of Wu. I believe the king of Wu can also feel this. But people are like this, you are right  If he is good, he will take it for granted."

    "King Wu Sun Quan felt that King Wei did this to him for a purpose, to win over him, which made him feel that King Wei needed him. Then in his heart he would despise King Wei and the country of Wei more and more, and would not say anything  The King of Wei and the State of Wei take it seriously. He may even forget that our King of Wei is much more powerful than his King of Wu."

    "If you want him to realize this clearly, then beat him hard here and let him understand the power of King Wei and the power of Wei State. Only by beating him painfully will he know how to be humble.  "

    After hearing this, Cao Cao's eyes lit up, and he understood what Man Chong meant.

    The meaning of Man Chong is to let Sun Quan know how powerful Cao Cao is, and to let Sun Quan know that Cao Cao does not need to win over Sun Quan because he is weak.

    He defeated Sun Quan severely here and let Sun Quan know that Cao Cao's wooing of Sun Quan did not mean that he could let Sun Quan do whatever he wanted.

    And here, Sun Quan is beaten painfully, so that Sun Quan can know who will be the boss in the future.

    Sure enough, do you still have to rely on your fists to do the talking?  Cao Cao thought so.

    "So, Bonin, what's your plan to defeat Sun Quan?" Cao Cao asked again.

    This time Cao Cao gathered here and there, and he just barely managed to pull out Xu Du's guards and city defense troops. He could only manage to gather a reinforcement team of 30,000 people to come to support.

    Sun Quan on the opposite side is said to have an army of 100,000. Even if the water content is subtracted, it is estimated to be 50,000.

    Thirty thousand people versus 50,000 people, and Hefei is still to be defended. It is not easy to defeat Sun Quan.

    And the reinforcements Cao Cao brought this time were of average strength. His most elite tiger and leopard cavalry were sent to Puyang to guard against Liu Zhe's black scale army.

    Therefore, in terms of strength, Cao Cao does not have the advantage. If the two sides really fight head-on, let alone defeat Sun Quan, it will be fine if he is not defeated.

    "King Wei, this is simple." Man Chong said, "King Wu has been here for nearly half a month. He can't attack Hefei by force, and their morale has been greatly depleted. I feel that if we can sneak attack the Wu army's food road,  The King of Wu will definitely be forced to withdraw his troops."

    "Sneak attack on the grain road?" Cao Cao expressed reservations about Man Chong's strategy.

    It¡¯s not that Cao Cao didn¡¯t want to attack Sun Quan¡¯s grain road, nor did he understand the significance of attacking Sun Quan¡¯s grain road.  But Sun Quan's grain roads are not so easy to attack by surprise.

    Sun Quan¡¯s grain route was on the water, from the Yangtze River to Chaohu Lake. Most of them took the water route, and very few took the land route.  Even if Cao Cao wanted to make a sneak attack, there would be no way.  Because Cao Cao's army is not familiar with water and has no ships now. Even if there were ships, Cao Cao would not dare to send people to sneak attack.

    The navy of the Kingdom of Wei and the navy of the Kingdom of Wu, no matter how much Cao Cao leans towards his side, there is no way he can think that the navy on his side will be better than the navy of the Kingdom of Wu.

    "I'm afraid it won't be easy," Cao Cao said.

    Sun Quan¡¯s grain and grass base can be known without any need to inquire.

    That was in Ruxuwu, where most of the Wu army's grain and grass were stored and then transported here by ship.  Convenient, fast and safe.

    Cao Cao felt that unless his men became strong swimmers overnight, he would have the confidence to send people to sneak attack Sun Quan's grain roads or grain and grass bases.  ,

    "Not to mention that I don't have a boat now, even if I have a boat, I won't be able to defeat Wu Jun on the water," Cao Cao said.

    Although?Xuanwu Lake had been built in Xudu a long time ago to train the navy, but later because the plan to go south was shelved, Xuanwu Lake was rarely used.

    There are not many naval forces trained on Xuanwu Lake and cannot form an army.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
