692: Chapter 533 Changing Cao Cao’s Fate, Unifying the World_2 692: Chapter 533 Changing Cao Cao’s Fate, Unifying the World_2 Although he cannot severely interfere with the world’s operations, after all, he possesses Earth Immortal Cultivation, and even if all the renowned generals of this world were to attack him together, they would hardly harm him.
At most, not many of the five thousand troops will be able to return.
“I am willing to go!”
Wang Yang held his fists together in respect, his form of address changed, as he positioned himself in the role of one who had already successfully conquered.
“Good, Xu Zhu, take five thousand soldiers and horses from Cao Ren and give them to him.
If you can’t take it down, just be ready to be beheaded!”
Cao Cao smiled slightly and said to Xu Zhu.
“Understood!”
Xu Zhu accepted the command, but he did not move.
The soldiers and horses were all in Ye City; he had but one or two thousand n here.
And at this ti, it was only a hundred or so miles from Ye City, which they would reach by tomorrow.
By then, it would be the sa to hand over the soldiers and horses to Wang Yang.
“Wang Yang, go back.”
Cao Cao said to Wang Yang.
“Pri Minister, Wang Yang has another word to say!”
Wang Yang did not leave directly but continued to speak to Cao Cao, “Although young girls are pleasing, young wives are even more delightful!”
Who didn’t know of Cao Cao’s peculiar personal preference for other n’s wives?
His words aid rely to establish a good impression by sharing a common interest with Cao Cao.
After speaking, Wang Yang returned to his original position without looking back, leaving Cao Cao alone to ponder deeply, repeatedly mulling over the words that Wang Yang had just uttered.
“A great talent, definitely a great talent!
Xu Zhu, get the details on this man.
If there’s nothing significantly wrong with him, after this battle, he should be given a prominent position!”
Once Cao Cao had recovered from his surprise, he said to Xu Zhu.
Xu Zhu was similarly stunned but still raised his hand to acknowledge the order.
He knew that this ti, Wang Yang and Li Ziyi were truly on the rise.
Not for their strategems, nor because they could capture Shouchun, but because of that phrase about ‘young wives,’ Wang Yang would definitely be seen as a kindred spirit by Cao Cao.
anwhile, having returned to his spot, Wang Yang began to plot out his next moves.
Not the attack on Shouchun, but what to do after the conquest of Shouchun.
“Boss Cao is quite decent; choosing him, I should be able to accomplish significant deeds.”
“As long as they don’t drag my feet, it should not be long before I can complete the mission,” Wang Yang thought to himself.
After all, aside from Cao Cao, neither Sun Quan nor Liu Bei would so generously give out five thousand soldiers and horses on Wang Yang’s re word.
Now these five thousand soldiers and horses were Wang Yang’s only capital, and his starting point for turning the situation around.
Smiling, Wang Yang was filled with anticipation for what was to co.
He followed the carriage of Boss Cao all the way to Ye City.
In Ye City, all the military generals under Cao Cao gathered to discuss the eradication of Yuanshu.
And Wang Yang, due to his advice to Boss Cao, was left outside, ready to be summoned at any mont.
“Boss Cao is quite decent, but he did not claim the title of Emperor while alive; it seems I’ll have to find a way to expedite the process, and at this ti, Liu Bei should also be here!”
Along the journey, Wang Yang was always thinking about how to bring about Cao Cao proclaiming himself Emperor; after all, it is only through unifying the lands and Cao Cao’s ascension that he would consider his mission accomplished.
If, after conquering much land but Boss Cao dies before achieving that, it would then beco a laughingstock.
“Zi Yi, do you really intend to attack Shouchun?”
Just as Wang Yang was imrsed in his thoughts, Dian Wei ca out and asked Wang Yang.
“General Dian Wei, indeed, I plan to lead the troops to Shouchun!”
Wang Yang did not hide his intentions, as this was a part of his plan and the first step into integrating into Boss Cao’s inner circles.
“Zi Yi, take care of yourself!
The Pri Minister calls you inside, rember, be sure to select the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry for the five thousand cavalry!”
Dian Wei sighed, saying no more.
But even when it ca to choosing the troops, Dian Wei was still looking out for Wang Yang’s interest.
“Rest assured, General, Zi Yi knows his own limits!”
Wang Yang replied confidently, following Dian Wei inside.
In the great hall, Cao Cao sat in the center, with Xu Zhu, Cao Ren, Yu Jin, Xiahou Dun, and Xiahou Yuan standing beside him, and Counselors like Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Sima Lang, and Xun You on the other side.
The military generals and councilors were lined up on both sides, all watching Wang Yang as he walked in from outside.
“To the Pri Minister, Wang Yang has been brought in!”
Dian Wei reported to Cao Cao, standing before him, then took his place on the side of the military generals.
“Zi Yi, I ask you once again, do you truly intend to use five thousand soldiers and horses to attack Shouchun?”
Cao Cao, looking straight at Wang Yang, his face bearing a serious expression.
“Yes!
If the Pri Minister grants five thousand soldiers and horses, Wang Yang will surely capture Shouchun!”
Wang Yang declared with confidence.
“Pri Minister, you must not!
Shouchun is Yuanshu’s stronghold; the city is abundant with troops and generals.
Sending five thousand n to attack Shouchun is nothing but a suicide mission for your n!”
Sima Lang was the first to stand up in opposition.
“Pri Minister, the matter of attacking Shouchun requires careful consideration.
Sun Quan of Jiangdong has already agreed to send troops, and with Lu Bu from Xuzhou, we could besiege Shouchun without taking such a risk!”
Xun You also disagreed with Wang Yang’s proposal, considering an attack on Shouchun by five thousand n nothing but a
joke.
“Fengxiao, what is your opinion?”
Cao Cao turned to Guo Jia, in whom he had great trust.
“May I ask General Wang, from where do you plan to rally these five thousand n?”
Guo Jia did not respond to Cao Cao’s question but instead asked Wang Yang first.
“Haha, as long as there are five thousand Cao army soldiers able to ride and kill, does it matter from where they are mustered?”
Wang Yang laughed heartily, exuding self-confidence.
Although Cao Cao’s Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were indeed mighty, cavalry were of little use in a siege of a city.
Wang Yang’s request for five thousand soldiers was rely to catch the enemy off guard and slaughter them after breaching the city gates.
“Pri Minister, allow General Li to give it a try!”
Guo Jia nodded and spoke to Cao Cao.
These words from Guo Jia took Wang Yang aback, prompting him to give Guo Jia a second glance.
In fact, given the current military strength during the Three Kingdoms era, it would be a fantasy for any leader to think of taking Shouchun with five thousand troops.
Only Wang Yang dared to undertake such a venture.
Without Wang Yang, Cao Cao might not know when he would be able to conquer Shouchun.
To hasten the unification of the realm and to gain more influence in Cao Cao’s presence, Wang Yang had chosen to act this way.
Guo Jia daring to back him like this was indeed extraordinary.
“Pri Minister, this cannot be!”
Cheng Yu hastily spoke up.
“Pri Minister, I am willing to lead ten thousand Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to attack Shouchun!”
“Pri Minister, let go!”
While counselors dissuaded, military generals eagerly volunteered for battle.
Wang Yang just stood there gracefully, quietly waiting for Cao Cao to make a decision.
“Enough!”
Indeed, seeing the chaos among his subordinates, Cao Cao was the first to speak, “Wang Yang, I will give you five thousand Qingzhou troops, but if you cannot take Shouchun, your head will be severed and displayed on my banner!”
“Thank you, Pri Minister, but Wang Yang has another matter!”
Wang Yang bowed with his fists, making it clear that kneeling was out of the question.
“What is it?
Speak!”
Cao Cao gestured dismissively, seemingly unconcerned.
“I request that General Yu Jin lead thirty thousand Tiger Guard Army to stand by ten miles behind us.
When the battle cries within Shouchun City reach the heavens, the thirty thousand Tiger Guard Army can then swoop in!”
“General Cao Ren should lead thirty thousand Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to guard the Jianghuai area, keeping a vigilant eye against any incursions from Jiangdong.
At the very least, we must gain control of the territories north of Jianghuai!”
“Furthermore, keep a close watch on Liu Bei’s family; after Yuanshu is vanquished, we cannot allow them to leave Xuchang!”
This was the best plan Wang Yang had co up with so far.
If these three conditions were t, it would cut Cao Cao’s ti to conquer the realm by half.
“How absurd!
Wang Yang, you’re just a minor General Lang, and yet you have the audacity to order a large army around.
What is the punishnt for such an offense?”
Dian Wei was the first to stand up and criticize Wang Yang; though he seed to be reprimanding Wang Yang, in truth, he was also trying to save Wang Yang’s life.
Who didn’t know that Boss Cao was naturally suspicious?
Wang Yang’s words positioned himself as if he were Cao Cao, which was sothing Cao Cao would never tolerate.
Dian Wei’s words brought Wang Yang back down to earth, perhaps hoping to spare him from severe punishnt!
“Wang Yang, your remarks are tantamount to accusing us deeply!
We all follow the Pri Minister’s orders; you have no right to command us!”
Similarly, Sima Lang criticized Wang Yang and then addressed Cao Cao, “Pri Minister, I wish for this man’s death!”
“Pri Minister…”
“Pri Minister…”
The others wanted to speak, but were halted by a gesture from Cao Cao.
Cao Cao looked towards Guo Jia, who remained unperturbed, standing silently without saying a word.
Cao Cao had his considerations and addressed everyone, “Wang Yang was rely sharing his genuine thoughts.
Besides, the urgent task at hand is to capture Shouchun.
If he fails, death is still the outco!”
“All right, everyone, Xiahou Dun, take the five thousand Qingzhou troops to Wang Yang and disperse!”
Having said this, Cao Cao instructed Xiahou Dun to lead Wang Yang to receive his n.
