    The three brothers looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.  When they arrived at the meeting hall, they heard Cao Cao say, "What do you think of King Yan's intention to reinforce Qingzhou?"

    "What?" The three Cao Pi brothers felt their hearts skip a beat.

    Cheng Yu said, "King Wei, King Yan has sent troops. I'm afraid the attackers are evil." The two sides have a tacit understanding to control the war within the smallest scope, and everyone understands it tacitly.  But now Liu Zhe suddenly announced that he would increase his troops, and he knew that trouble was coming this time.

    Cao Cao said, "I am also worried about this."

    It has been two or three months since Liu Zhe returned to Youzhou from Hanzhong. He had not sent anyone for reinforcements before, but now he suddenly wants to bring reinforcements. This is definitely not to come to him for tea and chat.

    Cao Cao asked, "What are your countermeasures?"

    Cheng Yu said, "We can only send troops to reinforce General Xiahou and the others. If General Xiahou and the others fail, then Yanzhou will be in danger, and Xudu will also"

    Cheng Yu stopped talking, but everyone understood that if Yanzhou was gone, then Xudu would definitely be in danger. Yanzhou was equivalent to Xudu¡¯s protective layer.

    Without Yanzhou Xudu, it would be directly exposed to the enemy's front.

    Man Chong asked, "Where do the reinforcements come from?"

    When talking about this, Cao Cao's head hurt again.  Now it can be said that he is very short of soldiers and horses. Needless to say, there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Yanzhou. There are also soldiers and horses stationed in Pengcheng, Luoyang and other places.

    As for Hefei, which has just been decided.  The reinforcements brought there should also be kept at 10,000 troops to prevent Sun Quan from doing anything wrong again.

    There were less than 20,000 soldiers and horses who followed Cao Cao back to Xudu, and the 20,000 soldiers and horses also needed a rest period to travel a long distance. Many of the 50,000 soldiers and horses here could not be moved casually.

    If something goes wrong by then, his old nest will be gone, and Cao Cao, who has a headache, can only greet Liu Zhe silently in his heart.

    Finally, Cao Cao made the decision, "Deploy 30,000 soldiers and horses from Xudu to follow my king to Yanzhou."

    Thirty thousand of the 50,000 soldiers and horses were lost, but there were still 20,000 soldiers who had returned from previous reinforcements in Hefei. The 40,000 soldiers and horses were probably barely enough for defense.

    Cao Cao said to Cheng Yu, "Zhongde, I will leave Xu Du to you."

    Cheng Yu took the order.

    Cao Cao thought for a moment, and finally pointed at Cao Pi and said, "As for supervising the country, let Zihuan do it."

    Cao Pi was stunned at first, then overjoyed.  Generally speaking, when a monarch goes on an expedition in person, in order to prevent accidents, he will leave his heir to supervise the country at the base camp. Since Cao Cao has not yet appointed the crown prince, this position is usually Cao Ang, and now Cao Ang is Liu Xin's prisoner.  So Cao Cao had no choice but to let Cao Pi come.

    After Cao Pi was overjoyed, he said loudly, "My son and I will live up to my father's expectations."

    Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "Go down and get ready."

    After a few days of preparation, Cao Cao took his troops to Yanzhou for reinforcements.

    It is much closer to Cao Cao from Xudu to Yanzhou than from Youzhou to Yanzhou.  When Zhao Yun received news that Cao Cao had led his troops to Yanzhou, Liu Zhe had just arrived in Jizhou, and it would still take more than ten days to reach Taishan County.

    In order to prevent accidents, Zhao Yun quickly returned to the front line to take charge.

    Of course, Liu Xin and Liu Jing also followed. Zhao Yun wanted to stop Liu Xin and her party from following, but Zhao Yun obviously couldn't stop them, and in the end he had no choice but to let them follow.

    Arriving at the frontline camp, Liu Xin said to Zhao Yun, "General Zilong, what are you going to do?"

    Zhao Yundao said, "Let's go out and test it out first."

    Then he took his troops and horses out of the camp to call for battle.

    And as soon as Cao Cao sat down and his buttocks were still hot from sitting, he heard Zhao Yun bringing people to call for formation.

    Cao Cao originally wanted to go and meet Zhao Yun in person, but Xia Houyuan jumped out and said, "King Wei, what is the identity of Zhao Zilong? Is it worthy for you, King Wei, to go out in person? How can you kill a chicken with a bull's knife? It's just a fighting dragon. Let me deal with it."  he."

    As soon as Xia Houyuan finished speaking, Cao Hong also jumped out and said, "Miao Cai is right, Zhao Zilong, there is no need to alarm the King of Wei, just let the ministers go, Miao Cai doesn't need to go either."

    Cao Cao said, "Zhao Zilong is a general under Liu Zhe, and he is second in the competition. Are you confident that you can beat him?"

    Cao Hong said disdainfully, "That competition ranking is just something to scare the people. If I hadn't been careless, I would have finished second even if I didn't take first place."

    The expression of Xia Houyuan next to him suddenly became strange. Were you really careless at that time?

    Even Yuan Rang has only been ranked in the top ten. If you were ranked, you wouldn't be in the top twenty. Where do you have the confidence to say this now????

    Xia Houyuan said, "Don't underestimate Zhao Zilong, he is not a weakling."

    Zhao Yun is not an ordinary general. He is one of Liu Zhe's most beloved and trusted generals. If he was not strong enough, he would not be sent here to control Qingzhou.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
