Chapter 192: Wang Mang was humble before he usurped the throne!
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and crows are crying.
Allied forces, inside Cao Cao’s camp.
Looking at the full moon hanging high in the sky, feeling the silence between heaven and earth at this moment, Cao Cao said with a sigh: "Wen Ruo, do you think we can take Hulao Pass?"
"What exactly is Yuan Shao up to?"
"What is he going to do with so many troops being mobilized?"
Xun Yu frowned and did not move.
After a long while, his eyes sparkled: "Lord Cao, I have a bad feeling!"
"Something big might happen tonight!"
"Ok?"
Cao Cao glared at him: "Wen Ruo, what do you mean by that?"
Xun Yu said: "You and Yuan Shao grew up together, you should know his temper. He suffered such a great loss at the hands of Ye Feng in the Chenliu camp, would he just admit defeat like this?"
Cao Cao was slightly stunned and shook his head: "He will never give up. He even dreams of stepping on Ye Feng."
"But his current strength is not enough to threaten Ye Feng. He is a smart man and will never seek death, so."
Xun Yu did not wait for Cao Cao to finish his words and shook his head: "Yuan Shao has no chance of winning by his own strength, but what if we add the strength of Dong Zhuo at Hulao Pass?"
"Don't forget that during the day, Lu Bu demonstrated the power of a top warrior from a distance, not only severely injuring Guan Yu, but also injuring Ye Feng."
"If we work together from inside and outside, how can we not have a chance of winning?"
Cao Cao's mind raced, and after a moment, he took a deep breath, "Wen Ruo, is this possible?"
"Would Yuan Shao, who was born into a family of three high officials, join forces with the traitor Dong Zhuo?"
"Dong Zhuo once stabbed Yuan Shao in the back, disrupting his well-planned plan."
Xun Yu said: "But Ye Feng's threat is too great. No one is sure to defeat him with his invincibility."
"On the contrary, Yuan Shao thought that dealing with Dong Zhuo would be easy."
"In the daytime battle, Guan Yu and Ye Feng were both injured. Although he still has generals under his command, none of them can match Lu Bu. So tonight is the best time to kill Ye Feng."
A look of confusion flashed across Cao Cao's face. At this moment he didn't know what to choose.
Ye Feng's threat is obvious to all. If this powerful opponent is eliminated, Cao Cao will also breathe a sigh of relief.
But now that Ye Feng is dead, who can deal with Dong Zhuo?
Even if it can be dealt with, how long will it take?
How many civilians will die in the war during this period?
Xun Yu naturally understood Cao Cao's intention. He subconsciously patted Cao Cao on the shoulder and said, "Lord Cao, now is not the time for you to have a headache."
"Because I think today is a game."
"Bureau?"
Xun Yu nodded: "Not bad."
"Thinking of Ye Feng rising from obscurity and walking step by step down to earth, will he put himself in a desperate situation?"
"The main forces of several battalions were in a state of retreat, and no one was allowed to visit them, as if they were afraid that others would not know that he was injured."
"Isn't this behavior a perfect example of trying to cover up one's own faults?"
"Do you think Yuan Shao will succeed?"
Cao Cao was startled and pondered for a long while, with a look of shock in his eyes: "Wen Ruo, do you mean that Ye Feng showed weakness to the enemy and deliberately set up a trap to lure Yuan Shao into taking the bait?"
Xun Yu nodded with a complicated expression: "When the Chenliu camp was in turmoil, I was thinking about a problem."
"With Ye Feng's wisdom, couldn't he guess that Yuan Shao was the real mastermind behind this?"
"Yuan Shu is just a sword on the surface?"
"I thought he would stabilize the situation and gradually disintegrate Yuan Shao's power, but he did not take any action and did not weaken Yuan Shao's power at all."
"I didn't understand the reason at first, but now I have some clues." "He used Yuan Shao as bait, waiting for the big fish Dong Zhuo to take the bait."
"This person is very thoughtful and his wisdom is so terrifying that there is no one in the world who can match him!"
"Lord Cao, there is something I don't know whether I should say or not!"
Cao Cao seemed to have guessed what Xun Yu was going to say, and a look of unwillingness to believe appeared on his face.
"is it possible?"
Xun Yu said: "If Yuan Shao and Dong Zhuo's forces are eliminated, Ye Feng's power will expand unprecedentedly. Who in the world can stop him?"
"Then this world will really change forever."
"I know Cao Gong's loyalty to the Han Dynasty best. We must not act on impulse at this time."
Cao Cao smiled bitterly and said, "You want me to inform Yuan Shao that Ye Feng had already made preparations and everything is fake?"
Xun Yu shook his head: "Yuan Shao will not believe what I said at this moment. I hope Cao Gong can stand on Yuan Shao's side, weaken Ye Feng's strength, and preserve the Han Empire."
Cao Cao's face was full of confusion: "Dong Zhuo is also a traitor to the country, and Ye Feng's actions now seem not to be treacherous, but I conspired with the traitor to murder loyal officials."
"Whether I win or lose, I will be cursed for eternity if I'm afraid of death!"
Xun Yu said sternly: "Dong Zhuo has courage but no strategy. Even if he can only gain or lose temporarily, he will never become a great man. But Ye Feng's plan is very big. He wants to establish the foundation of the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years."
"Wang Mang was humble before he usurped the throne!"
"Cao Gong has a clear conscience for what he has done now!"
Cao Cao paced back and forth in the tent with his teeth clenched.
The night wind blew into the tent through the gaps in the tent, and the candlelight swayed back and forth, just like Cao Cao's mood at the moment, unable to calm down for a moment.
Finally, Cao Cao opened his eyes again, his eyes full of determination and firmness: "A real man is born between heaven and earth. He only seeks to have a clear conscience, not to be afraid of being cursed."
"Wen Ruo, what do you think we should do?"
A relaxing smile appeared on Xun Yu's tense face: "I really didn't make a mistake about you!"
"Ha ha!!"
The night deepened at the gate of the Allied Forces camp.
The two teams of soldiers patrolled alternately.
As the cold wind blew, many soldiers subconsciously shrank their heads and complained: "It's not even winter yet, why is the wind so cold?"
"Being blown like this all night really makes me dizzy and confused."
"Boss, why don't we discuss with Captain Wang and split up the patrol?"
The captain of the goalkeeper in the front snorted coldly: "Don't think I don't know your little tricks. No matter how lazy you were in the past, I turned a blind eye, but not today."
"Wait."
He explained in a low voice, and the soldiers present gasped: "Are you really going to kill people?"
The captain of the gate said coldly: "Either you die or I die!"
"Alliance Leader Yuan has said that if we succeed tonight, each of us will be rewarded with ten taels of gold and will also be given an official position."
"You won't encounter such a good thing in your lifetime, so don't act like a coward."
"Understand?"
Hearing about the generous reward, the soldiers who were originally frightened had crazy lights in their eyes: "We did it!"
"When a person dies, the birds fly up to the sky. What's there to be afraid of?"
"When?"
"Wait a minute!!"
Time passed slowly, and suddenly the crisp sound of horse hooves rang out. Captain Wang, who was patrolling in the camp, frowned slightly and shouted, "Why are there horse hooves sounds in the dark?"
"But have the scouts you sent out returned?"
