Luoyang, the city wall.

The actions of Liu Bian's army on these two days were all under Cao Cao's watch. Today it was also just dawn, and Cao Cao brought a group of counselors to the heights of the city wall.

Looking at Liu Bian's camp in the distance, Cao Cao frowned even more.

He couldn't understand what Liu Bian meant. It stands to reason that Liu Bian should withdraw his troops quickly to deal with the matter in Guanzhong, but why is he so slow to act?

After three days of work, he still hasn't set off.

Could it be that he doesn't even understand the reason why soldiers are expensive?

Cao Cao didn't believe it.

"My lord, Liu Bian's army is about to leave. Shall we follow the original plan and notify Sun Ce to send troops together?" Xu Chu, who was beside Cao Cao, said excitedly.

Xu Chu is a fierce general, but after watching Liu Bian's army show off his power outside for so long, he has long felt resentment. How could he miss the opportunity to beat the underdogs at this moment?

Cao Cao shook his head, and instead of answering the words of the fierce general beside him, he focused his attention on Guo Jia.

Cao Cao knew that the more critical it was, the more he needed to calm down.

Now he can't go wrong in every step, otherwise he will lose the chance to compete with Liu Bian in the world.

Guo Jia felt Cao Cao's gaze, he pondered for a moment, frowned and said: "My lord, this Liu Bian's behavior is very strange, he seems to be waiting for us to attack."

"Could it be that our plan was known to him? Someone tipped him off?"

After Guo Jia finished speaking, he looked at Xu Chu.

As a general who sat at Shenchengmen all day, Xu Chu naturally had the most say on this issue.

Xu Chu Weng said: "Master, it is absolutely impossible. During this time, I even slept on the city wall, and there was no movement, and no one could slip away under my eyes." 35

Xu Chu's words were full of confidence, and even a little unhappy in them.

Cao Cao felt the emotion of the fierce general beside him, and said with a smile: "Since General Xu said so, there will be no news leak, this can be ruled out.

"Besides that, Sun Ce didn't do anything, which proves that he didn't pass the news.

Guo Jia nodded and said, "Since this is the case, there is only one possibility.

"What is possible?

"Liu Bian wanted to lead the snake out of its hole, and this gesture was made on purpose.

"Maybe he wants to destroy us before destroying Liu Bei."

"This frees up your hands to deal with Liu Bei. 99

As soon as Guo Jia said this, not only Cao Cao, but also Cheng Yu, who was a talented performer on the side, had a gleam in his eyes.

Both of them are also shrewd people, so they naturally understand the meaning of Guo Jia's words.

Xi Zhicai said, "I agree with Fengxiao's statement."

"No matter how fast Liu Bei's action is, it will take five or six days to reach Chang'an City. Now that it's only three days, Liu Bian has every chance to reach Chang'an.

"Even as long as he issues a death order, Chang'an City can be dragged on for half a month.

The two advisors under his command made the same judgment, which made Cao Cao slightly relieved.

After all, it is still in his hands whether there will be a decisive battle.

Cao Cao pondered for a while: "But if we don't attack, how will the plan be implemented? Are we just watching Liu Bian leave?

"This is a great damage to the morale of our army."

Guo Jia said with a wry smile: "My lord, this is also a way out of nowhere. 35

"Our plan was to find a loophole in the chaos, weakening Sun Ce's power and draining Liu Bian's power.

"If Liu Bian is ready to invite Jun into the urn and take out the trump card of Sun Jian, I'm afraid it will backfire and send out the power under our eyes.

Cao Cao didn't understand this truth, he sighed heavily and didn't say much.

But Guo Jia's remarks angered Xu Chu. He waited so hard for this opportunity to pursue him, how could he be willing to let Liu Bian go?

""々My lord, these are just speculations of military advisors, how can they be taken seriously?

"It's a big deal, we'll follow him and wait for him to reveal his flaws."

"In short, we have to fight this battle, otherwise our morale will be exhausted. During this time, our soldiers have been dissatisfied with a lot of people. Many people say that we are a tortoise in the city."

"So we have to go out and fight!!

Xu Chu's words were extremely tough, but it also represented the opinions of most people in the army.

Therefore, when Xu Chu finished speaking, the rest of the generals also spoke freely and asked for battle.

Cao Cao sighed in his heart. He knew that the avoidance of the war during this period of time made many people have opinions, and even reached the limit of emotional outbursts.

He can use his majesty to suppress the war intentions of these generals (really Zhao), but if he really does this, I am afraid that the army and generals will be detached from him.

The situation is even worse.

"You don't have to be angry, generals, you know how lonely you are."

"But a soldier is a murder weapon!"

"We must be fully prepared before we can make a move, otherwise we will fall into the enemy's trap. Wouldn't that mean that brothers sacrifice for nothing?"

"You don't have to worry, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run."

After Cao Cao finished speaking, he did not give Xu Chu and other generals a chance to speak, and walked straight down the city wall.

Guo Jia and others also hurriedly followed. As for Xu Chu and other generals, they beat their chests and feet, and some even hit the bricks with their fists to express their inner dissatisfaction.
