After finishing dressing and grooming, Cao Cao left the backyard and came to the hall where he usually worked. He had just climbed two stairs and still had three steps to go before the housekeeper rushed in with Mao Jie.

Because the grand ceremony of enthroning the Queen was approaching, Cao Cao's men had already begun to take turns to watch the night to prevent any emergencies.

"It's Xiaoxian (characterized by Mao Jie). Is there something urgent?"Cao Cao asked while standing on the steps. Seeing Mao Jie like this, Cao Cao felt a little panicked for no reason. Don't let anything bad happen.

"My lord, I heard that Liu Zhe is going to lead an army of one million into Yanzhou."Mao Jie rushed to Cao Cao. He didn't bother to salute, and hurriedly told Cao Cao the news brought by Le Jin's people.

"thump!"Cao Cao lost his balance and fell down the steps.

"Lord, are you okay?"Mao Jie hurriedly helped Cao Cao up and asked with concern.

"Are you right?"After Cao Cao got up, he immediately asked Mao Jie if he was wrong.

Mao Jie shook his head and said that he was right.

"ah."

Cao Cao suddenly felt a splitting headache. He didn't know whether it was from the fall or from being stimulated to relapse. In short, Cao Cao now had a headache and was very scared.

"Really right?"How much Cao Cao hopes this is a dream. It would be great to wake up just after falling down the steps.

"Lord, this is General Le Jin's letter."Mao Jie handed Le Jin's letter to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao took it and saw, well, it's still white paper produced in Youzhou. This white paper is not cheap, and Cao Cao is usually reluctant to use it.

Cao Cao quickly took it and looked at the content of the letter. , when he read it, Cao Cao's heart kept sinking.

Cao Cao held the information sent by Le Jin in his hand and did not speak for a long time. Liu Zhe's one million army gave Cao Cao a great shock.

How many Liu Zhe Military strength, this problem has been bothering other princes. They have sent spies to Liu Zhe's territory and kept probing, but they have never been able to find out.

Liu Zhe has always covered it up very well. When he went out to fight with people, he always brought some of his soldiers with him. The maximum number of horses that can be sent out is no more than 200,000. Over time, other princes can only rely on guessing.

Cao Cao also lost a lot of hair over the question of how many troops Liu Zhe had. Later, after he couldn't figure it out, he did the same We can only guess.

With one Yanzhou, two-fifths of Sili, and half of Yongzhou, Cao Cao was able to raise an army of four to five million people. Liu Zhe had a larger territory than him, a larger population, and more abundant funds and materials. Liu Zhe Being able to raise an army of one million, Cao Cao was not surprised. He had already guessed that Liu Zhe had an army of more than one million.

But when the news that Liu Zhe really had an army of one million appeared in front of him At that time, Cao Cao couldn't help but lose consciousness, secretly feeling cold in his heart, and was shocked by this terrifying number.

"Lord, what should we do now?"Although Mao Jie is usually full of wits, he doesn't know what to do at this time. Should he let Liu Zhe continue to come to Yanzhou, or should he refuse to let Liu Zhe come? Who knows if he will anger Liu Zhe if he refuses to come to Yanzhou? , what if Liu Zhe insists on coming to attend the emperor's grand ceremony, and if he doesn't give it to him, he will fight directly and fight all the way to Xudu? It is unwise to start a war with Liu Zhe now, and he will definitely lose.

I agree that Liu Zhe will continue to come. As for Yanzhou, do you want him to lead a million troops into Yanzhou? Don't be kidding, one million people can squeeze Cao Cao's people out of Yanzhou just by squeezing. By then, Liu Zhe will be able to become the leader without any effort. The new master of Yanzhou.

Cao Cao covered his head with a splitting headache. His brain hurt so badly that it was difficult to think clearly.

"Let others discuss matters."Cao Cao finally put aside these words and went inside first.

When others arrived, Cao Cao was already sitting at the top of the meeting hall, holding an ice pack in his left hand and covering his head. This gesture was to tell his subordinates that your lord is My headache comes back again

"What do you think of this matter?"After his men sat down, Cao Cao asked aloud.

After everyone looked at each other, they already knew the news that Le Jin sent back. To be honest, the one million army was indeed beyond their expectation. Here Before, they had always guessed that Liu Zhe's headquarters could have up to 100,000 troops.

Because they were here to attend the emperor's wedding, not to fight. Bringing more troops might make people in the world think he had evil intentions. They They thought that no one would do this, but this damn Liu Zhe did it.

After they all learned the news, they immediately knew that they had been misled by Liu Zhe. Liu Zhe did not say that he had How many troops and horses they had, they all used conventional ideas to guess Liu Zhe's troops and horses, but they all guessed wrong. Not fifty thousand, not one hundred thousand, not two hundred thousand, but a terrifying one million.

Damn it. Yes, it was too bullying. After thinking about it clearly, many people cursed Liu Zhe in their hearts. How could anyone have a million troops in his headquarters?

Now Cao Cao asked them their opinions on this matter. It was just the staff and counselors. We are still digesting the news, so no one is saying anything yet.

"Why are you all mute?"When Cao Cao saw this, he became angry and shouted loudly, asking why his men were silent at the critical moment.

Usually Cao Cao rarely behaves like this, but now he is so out of control because he was stimulated by Liu Zhe's one million army. , a little unable to control himself.

Cao Hong was the first to jump out again and asked for orders:"My lord, please give the order. Let me lead an army to support Baima Jin and drive the Youzhou army back to the other side.""

"Yes, my lord, I am willing to be the vanguard."Xiahou Dun also jumped out.

Other generals also asked for help.

Unlike Cao Cao's counselors and staff, most of the military generals were straightforward and straightforward. They didn't think too much and just hit. Naturally,

Cao Cao would not accept the words of these people. Listen. If he went to fight Liu Zhe despite their words, he would lose in a matter of minutes. Cao Cao knew that he was not strong enough to compete with Liu Zhe.Chamber confrontation.

But having said that, Cao Cao originally thought that even if his strength was not as good as Liu Zhe, it would not be too far behind, but now an army of one million was like a blow to the head, making Cao Cao understand the huge gap between himself and Liu Zhe.
