[Three Kingdoms] Seven steps into wetness

Zhou Yu's defeat of Huang Gai caused internal strife in the Wu army. This development was obviously beyond everyone's expectations.

What's even more amazing is that Huang Gai, holding a grudge, actually asked his friend to send a letter of surrender, willing to respond to Cao Cao.

Isn't this the same as Cao Zhi's previous proposal?

Cao Zhi has black lines all over his head.

When he heard about this, his first thought was bitter tricks, the second was that he had hit a wall, and the third was that the Cai brothers might not be of much use.

Originally, if any one of them came up with this method, as long as they did a little research, the other party would be convinced.However, when these two methods appeared together, Cao Zhi had to be speechless.

Not only Cao Zhi felt extremely depressed, but even Cao Cao stared at Kan Ze who came to deliver the letter of surrender, silent.

He thought it was a seamless idea to send the Cai brothers to Wuying!Even if Zhou Yu doesn't reuse them, he will make insinuations about Cao Ying's news.How could he know that he sent two people from his side, they might have just arrived in Wuying, and Zhou Yu also sent him a yellow cover as if he knew what he wanted!

What an embarrassing situation is this?

To use an analogy, it was as if two people were fighting shirtless, and the person who fell below secretly took out a small knife to stab each other to death.But when he looked up, he found that the other party had pulled out a brick from nowhere, trying to smash him to death!

Cao Cao obviously feels this way now.

Of course, Zhou Yu, who must be far away on the other side, probably felt the same way.

As long as he thought that Zhou Yu would be so depressed, Cao Cao couldn't help laughing.

But in Kan Ze's ears, Cao Cao was still skeptical.Without changing his face, he looked up to the sky and laughed.

Cao Cao also had a half-smile: "Why, your treacherous scheme has been seen through by Gu, so what are you laughing at?"

Kan Ze sneered and said, "It is said that Prime Minister Cao is thirsty for talents. However, looking at this question today, it doesn't fit! Huang Gongfu, Huang Gongfu, you are wrong again!"

Cao Cao's face became a little suspicious.

After all, although he ordered the Cai brothers to sneak into the Wu army's position, and even arranged everything in detail, it could not explain that Zhou Yu also had such thoughts.

After all, Huang Gai's legs were really broken when the fifty army sticks went down!

If this is true...

Cao Cao recalled Kan Ze's demeanor when he entered the hall, from the fact that he was helpless but not flustered when he read the surrender letter and ordered people to drag him out and behead him, and the irony that he didn't care about his identity at all when he saw that he didn't believe him. Is life and death out of the question?

Thinking of this, Cao Cao believed again.

Cao Cao was about to ask for more confirmation, but an attendant reported something important.When Fu Er heard it, his face suddenly changed color.

He even jumped up suddenly: "What are you talking about, the epidemic broke out and Hua Tuo is difficult to cure! Someone, give Hua Tuo to the orphan..." When he said this, he suddenly fell silent.Then he glanced at Kan Ze indifferently, sat back on his seat and said, "I still have to tell Yu Gu about such a trivial matter? Isn't Hua Tuo a genius doctor? Let him cure these dozens of people quickly?"

His face had returned to calmness and composure, only his fingertips were still trembling slightly.

The guard bowed back and passed the order to Hua Tuo.Kan Ze took the opportunity to probe and said, "It seems that Cao Gong seems to be having some troubles recently..."

"Oh, I made you laugh." Cao Cao wrote lightly, "Northern people, when they go to a place with a lot of water in the south, they are always a bit unaccustomed. Now Hua Tuo, who is known as a genius doctor, is also in the army alone, and he wants to cure them. It's just a small matter of applying medicine!" He paused, staring at Kan Ze with cold eyes.And Kan Ze's face was like a needle prick, and he had to suppress his inner fear before he could look at Cao Cao.

He heard Cao Cao pause and say: "Why, don't you think our army is too damaged to support the big battle in front of us?"

Kan Ze pondered these few words silently in his heart, restrained his face and said respectfully: "So that's the case, I'm worrying too much! Don't blame Cao Gong, I'm just worried about whether Huang Gongfu's actions are worth it or not!"

Cao Cao showed a bit of sarcasm on his face: "I, Cao Cao, spent half my life as a soldier. I broke the yellow scarf and captured Lu Bu; I destroyed Yuan Shu and defeated Yuan Shao. The horse stepped on him in the northern part of the country, and the sword pointed at Liaodong; crossing the world, smiling proudly at the sky... Huh, that Huang Gong is like a man. If you really want to rely on me, Cao Cao, is it not worth it? But I don’t know that Cao Cao accepts you, what’s not worth it!"

Kan Ze smiled confidently: "Prime Minister Cao can wait and see!"

Cao Cao nodded, and said slowly: "So, let's trust you for now! You go back, if there is anything important, I will order someone to inform you."

Kan Ze finally had a look of joy on his face, and he quickly bowed and left without being too entangled.

Kan Ze had already left, and Cao Cao got up almost suddenly and walked out of the gate, heading straight for the soldiers' camp.

Earlier, Hua Tuo discovered that his soldiers were suffering from the disease, and more than half of them were sick. What's more, the disease would spread, and so far, 30% of the entire army camp has been infected.If the epidemic breaks out, regardless of how many people they will die-he brought more than 20 soldiers and horses, wouldn't [-] soldiers and horses be useless?

——Could it be that God really didn't help Cao Cao?

Guo Jia approached him, seeing Cao Cao hurrying, he smiled and said, "My lord, are you worried about the outbreak of the disease among the soldiers?"

Cao Cao paused.He frowned and said, "You also know?"

Guo Jia coughed a few times: "Actually, it's not that Guo Jia also knew about this matter. It's that this matter was originally sent by Guo Jia."

Cao Cao was startled when he heard it.In an instant, the worries on his face were wiped away, and instead he was replaced by the one who knows everything and can't laugh or cry: "Well, Guo Fengxiao, did you just disclose this matter to Zhou Yu casually?"

Guo Jia closed his eyes and smiled lightly.

Xu Shi was very windy along the river at the end of November, so he tightened his clothes, coughed a few times and said again: "Guo Jia heard that Gai was good at raising people, and every conquest of soldiers strives to be the first, so Huang Gai is very prestigious in the army. And Zhou Yu has a broad mind, which is rare in the world. Now that the situation of the Wu army and navy is in crisis, if the two of them fight, it can be said that the entire Wu army will be wiped out in an instant."

Cao Cao pondered.

Guo Jia said again: "Guo Jia met Zhou Yu once, so he knew his mind. If Huang Gai really treated him like this, with Zhou Gongjin's mind, he would be able to tolerate three points. If he really couldn't bear it, he would kill him directly. It is to prevent Huang Gai from rebelling and shaking the morale of the army!"

Cao Cao's eyes were dim and inexplicable, and he nodded slowly.

"What's more, if Huang Gai finds out about this matter, there is no harm."

"Oh?"

"If Huang Gai really wanted to help our army, he wouldn't care about these things. If Huang Gai pretended to surrender, our army leaked such news, and it would just make Wu Jun think that our navy army is not stable, and the cavalry is strong. If they plan to take advantage of the situation Come in, our army happens to be able to catch them all in one go!"

Regardless of what Cao Cao had in mind, in fact Zhou Yu greeted the Cai brothers, and then heard them tell the whole story with indignation and resentment, and a strange expression flashed across his face.

But he quickly put away these things, talked enthusiastically with them for two hours, grasped all the arrangements of Cao Cao known to the Cai brothers, and sighed that it is too difficult for him now!With Cao Cao on the outside, and Huang Gai on the inside, what's more, Zhuge Liang and the Cai brothers came here. It really can be said that the long drought meets the rain with him!

The waiter settled the two, and Zhou Yu immediately ordered someone to invite Lu Su and Zhuge Liang to avoid everyone and enter Huang Gai's room for a deep talk.

And the Cai brothers sent all the scruples vaguely revealed in the previous conversation with Zhou Yu, and even the matter of Huang Gai's beating, to Cao Cao.

When Cao Cao received this letter, Kan Ze had already returned by boat.He gathered all the counselors and began to think about what the situation is now.

First of all, Cao Cao wanted to place a pawn in Wuying.Their plan was not completed, but Zhou Yu also "understood" and sent them an answer.

That's the problem.

——Should they trust Huang Gai, and whether Zhou Yu will trust the Cai brothers.And if Zhou Yu doesn't believe it, how can they make Zhou Yu believe it?So how credible is the news from the Cai brothers?

Now Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, and Jia Xu hold an attitude of disbelief, while Xun Yu and others say that they can trust Huang Gai, and they should do some remedies to make Zhou Yu trust the Cai brothers.

Cao Zhi shook his head from side to side, feeling a little dizzy from hearing it.

Then, he heard Yang Xiu say: "Prime Minister, I just shook my head when I saw the Fourth Young Master. It seems that I have something to say."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone turned their attention to Cao Zhi.Cao Cao looked at him as if he was still in a dream, frowned and said, "Sir, if you have something to say, just say it, don't hesitate!"

Cao Zhi was shot all over his body while lying down.

He turned his head and silently stared at his teacher who stood calmly and calmly with the breeze in his sleeves and stared at him gently. After a while, he pulled out an ugly smile: "...I thought that my father could do whatever he wanted."

Cao Cao said: "Why do you just use tricks?"

Cao Zhi pondered for a long time before hesitating, "The problem now is that my father doesn't believe that Zhou Yu trusts the Cai brothers, and Zhou Yu also suspects that his father doesn't trust Huang Gai... In this case, maybe my father can..."

When Cao Zhi said this, his thoughts still seemed a little messy.

He pondered for a moment before saying: "According to general thinking, in fact, father should do some remedies to make Zhou Yu believe in the Cai brothers. But I feel that my father does not need to do this. Instead, I can keep correspondence with them in secret, and even in words Vaguely showing some trust in Huang Gai, let them get in touch with Huang Gai."

"In this way, Zhou Yu must believe what we wrote in secret correspondence with the Cai brothers, and he also believes that we believe Huang Gai."

After Cao Zhi finished speaking, everyone fell into deep thought.

These words sound a bit messy, but the central idea is to pretend to be ignorant and credulous to the other party, which eventually leads to the result of confusing the truth with the false.

Someone objected: "Fourth Young Master's plan is ingenious. However, in this way, the other party mistakenly thinks that we are passing the real news, but it is difficult for us to know the real news of the enemy."

Someone agreed: "I think it's okay."

When Yang Xiu heard it, a sneer flashed in his eyes.He glanced at Cao Zhi, and he was probably saying - why did you say such constructive words when Guo Jia asked you to speak; but when the teacher asked you to speak, you said such nonsensical words?

Cao Zhi's mouth twitched.

He glanced at Yang Xiu first, and then at Guo Jia.Seeing that the latter was smiling and looking at him with unknown meaning, he bowed his head obediently and stood aside, not shaking his head easily.

Speaking of which, he previously planned to show the image of a Confucian scholar to the world.After all, in the past, he only wanted to live a stable life, so it was his goal in this life to be a person who was mediocre in his childhood and occasionally pretended to be literary and artistic in his youth.

With such a long life, he can still recite dozens of poems and compose poems, and leave some traces of his life, and this life will pass away safely.

It's just why, as of now, it's getting farther and farther away from this simple thought? !

Three days later, the Cai brothers sent another letter back.

——Zhou Yu is seriously ill, his breath is like a gossamer, and he fears that he will die soon!
