Chapter 694 - 534: Taking on 100,000 with 5,000, the Ambitions Are Likely Great_2
"Combining these three points, I can say that our lord now has both a great general and a talented advisor at his disposal!"
Guo Jia said to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao sat there, immersed in thought.
When Cao Cao first heard Wang Yang’s demands, he found them absurd.
If Wang Yang failed, the thirty thousand Tiger Guard Army would merely return without having accomplished anything.
Moreover, Jiangdong had agreed to deploy troops to conquer Yuanshu, with everything subject to the dispatch of Emperor Xian of the Great Han from inside Xuchang City, and they would certainly not capture the Jianghuai region.
As for Liu Bei, Cao Cao was aware of the man, but to actually kill Liu Bei or place him under house arrest would truly damage his reputation. One could say that he could not carry out any of these three conditions.
However, what was strange was that after Guo Jia’s explanation, Cao Cao felt that each of these three conditions was strikingly to the point, and if things went as Wang Yang said, then pacifying the north would just be a matter of time.
"If that’s the case, then let’s proceed in this manner, Xu Chu!"
Cao Cao was a decisive man; although naturally suspicious, he never doubted people like Guo Jia and Xu Chu.
Guo Jia, knowing that Cao Cao had made up his mind, sat there without saying anything further.
