Chapter 143 Cao Cao Suspicion
After hearing this, Cao Cao fell into deep thought. Seeing Cao Cao's appearance, Xu Huang stopped talking.
After Cao Cao thought for a while, he asked Xu Huang to continue.
"Later, when Guan Yu saw that I also intended to persuade the surrender, he released me and let me go down the mountain alone. For the sake of the overall situation, for the sake of all the soldiers, and for the sake of the prime minister, the rebel war was quelled and the army was unified, but the humble official still made mistakes in this matter, please punish the prime minister."
"You have made great achievements in putting down the chaos. How can I punish you? In my opinion, if the merits and demerits are equal, I will reward you with a hundred taels of silver. You go down first, and I have to think about it."
"Thank you, Prime Minister."
After Xu Huang left, Cao Cao asked Cheng Yu, "Zhongde, what do you think of this matter?"
"Prime Minister, I think this incident was premeditated. In order to help Guan Yu escape, the enemy kidnapped General Xu Huang on the mountain to force Guan Yu, and even left an ambush in our army at the foot of the mountain, causing chaos among the soldiers and allowing Guan Yu to break through and leave. , intertwined, leak-tight, this enemy hiding in the dark is really hard to guard against."
Cao Cao suddenly opened his eyes in his seat, looked at Cheng Yu, and burst out laughing.
Cheng Yu was a little bewildered by Cao Cao's tricks, he didn't know why the prime minister was smiling so happily.
After Cao Cao finished laughing, he said with a stern face: "Cheng Yu, your analysis is very wrong. Alas, I don't know when you will be able to solve my problems for me. What is the most urgent task now?"
"Shouldn't all the gates be closed and Guan Yu's whereabouts found?"
"These are the second, the most important thing. Shouldn't we find the enemy hiding behind? Step back, I want to be alone."
Cheng Yu resigned, his head full of confusion.He didn't know why the prime minister assigned him such a task, and he didn't know how to complete this task, so he was at a loss.
After he came out of Cao Cao's palace, he kept moaning and sighing all the way.Looking up, Xun Yu was walking towards him.
He stepped forward quickly, "Sir, I don't know why you came to the prime minister's place?"
"Cheng Yu, I heard that the Prime Minister's headache has struck again, and this time the pain is even more unbearable. I came here to take a look."
"Mr. Lao Lao is concerned. The prime minister's condition is no longer serious. It's just that I told the prime minister what happened on Mount Mangdang just now. The prime minister's behavior is a bit weird. I can't understand it. I hope you can give me some advice. "
"I've heard Xu Chu talk about the incident on Mount Mangdang, but I haven't figured out some of the details. Tell me about it in detail."
Cheng Yu told Xun Yu everything that happened on Mount Mangdang. Xun Yu stroked his beard and thought for a while, then said, "Cheng Yu, you must see the essence of the problem clearly and think about it for a while. The Prime Minister said That's right, your analysis is very wrong."
Cheng Yu felt a little silly, "Why did you say that, sir?"
"Think about it, you don't even have half a day to force Guan Yu. In this case, your analysis has created a problem. Who in the world can fight against our army's elite cavalry and Guan Yu's remnants within half a day? The army set up ambushes separately, not to mention everything carefully planned and arranged behind."
"However, these things that happened on Mount Mangdang were obviously carefully arranged and designed by someone. They are meticulous and precise, and they are linked one after another. It is hard to guard against."
"That's because these people had already colluded with each other beforehand. You just said that Guan Yu broke through three times and was killed by our army's random arrows. I think it was during this breakout that these people confirmed their plan."
"The time should be at noon, when the sun in the sky reached noon that day, it was also the time for them to act."
After hearing Xun Yu's words, Cheng Yu suddenly realized, "Then I would like to ask, sir, who is behind the instigation?"
"This is what really worries me. The enemy is in the dark, and we are in the open. It's hard to say. Come with me to meet the prime minister and discuss this matter."
"it is good."
The two came to Cao Cao's palace together. Cao Cao was sitting on the bed with his eyes closed.As soon as they entered the house, Cao Cao said, "It's Xun Yu who has come."
Xun Yu cupped his hands and said, "Yes, Prime Minister."
"You have something to say."
"Prime Minister, I think that what happened on Mangdang Mountain is very strange, so I came here to discuss it with my lord."
Cao Cao opened his eyes, "Others don't know, don't you Xun Yu don't? I think you have already guessed the mystery, so you might as well just say it."
"The general situation of what happened must be very clear to the prime minister, so I won't say any more. Now let's talk about who did it. The people who want to do this are all the princes in the world, Guan Yu, this person, With both loyalty and righteousness, he alone can defeat a hundred thousand soldiers, and there is no prince in the world who does not want to have such a fierce general."
"But among them, only Yuan Shao from Jizhou, Han Yang from Xiliang, Sun Ce from Jiangdong, and Liu Biao from Jingzhou are the only ones capable of doing it. Among them, Sun Ce and Yuan Shao are the most suspected."
"Yuan Shao has already deployed his army to fight our army. If he gets Guan Yu's help at this moment, it will have a great impact on our army's momentum."
"Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong, has always been eyeing the Xudu area. He has sent people to raid many times, but they have all returned in vain. If he can win Guan Yu this time, showing Guan Yu a kindness will be a big blow to our army. .”
Cao Cao laughed out loud after hearing Xun Yu's analysis, "Wen Ruo, Wen Ruo, you are indeed my ovary, your analysis is spot on."
Suddenly, he stopped smiling, straightened his face and said: "What kind of ability does that idiot Yuan Benchu have to help Guan Yu escape? He's just a self-willed villain, nothing to be afraid of. But this kid from Jiangdong has to guard against it. He has inherited him. With all my father's abilities and such a foundation at such a young age, it is somewhat possible to say what he did."
Cao Cao paused for a moment, then continued: "In my opinion, both of them can get rid of the suspicion, it was done by other people."
Xun Yu suddenly opened his eyes wide, "Could the prime minister mean that Han Yang..."
"Yes, it's him. Yuan Shao, Sun Ce, and Liu Biao have more or less learned some news over the years, but this Han Yang has disappeared without a trace since he returned to Xiliang. In the past few years, there is no news at all. I have sent people into Xiliang City many times, but they all returned in vain. I must be planning something in secret, so I have to be more careful."
