Chen Qun secretly met Jia Xu and asked him to speak out for Cao Pi in front of Cao Zhi, let him go out of the mountain, and help Cao Zhi fight Yuan Shang to the death.

It is said that since the dispute over the establishment of his heir, Cao Zhi was idle and placed in Xudu as a wealthy man. He lived a free and easy life, but he had nothing to do, but he was happy to be idle.

If it were Cao Pi's character, if he had taken office, I was afraid Cao Zhi would have let him deal with it long ago. However, Cao Zhi was not that kind of person. Although he was angry with Cao Pi's use of any means and even Cao Chong wanted to conspire to seize the inheritance, in Cao Zhi's mind, Cao Pi was his second brother after all, and Cao Zhi couldn't do that.

Chen Qun is Cao Pi's old acquaintance and insider. Jia Xu knew about this, but Cao Pi had no action, and Chen Qun's errands were done with all his heart, so Jia Xu and others turned a blind eye.

After pondering for a while, Jia Xu nodded and said, "This matter must be something that I should think about. It will not be too late to tell you after a reply."

Chen Qun seemed to have already received Jia Xu's reply, and then bowed and said, "Since that's the case, Dr. Lauja will be more troublesome!"

After a few more polite words, the two separated immediately. Jia Xu also came to Cao Zhi's tent when there were no outsiders that night.

At this time, Cao Zhi was still immersed in the sadness of Guo Jia's death. He absent-mindedly listened to Jia Xu's report and did not respond until after a long time.

"Cao Pi... No, is it my second brother who wants to ask for military positions? Help me fight against Yuan Shang together?"

Jia Xu nodded and said, "This is what Chen Qun said. Seeing that Yuan Shang was in great power and Zhongzhou was in danger, Cao Pi secretly felt that as a member of the Cao family, he should also do his part for the Cao family, so he asked for a fight."

Cao Zhi touched his chin and pondered for a while. He said, "Doctor, according to your opinion, what is the purpose of my second brother's move? Is it good intention or malicious?"

Jia Xu touched the white beard on his chin, pondered for a long time, and then sighed.

"Their intentions should be true. After all, the second son is also the legitimate son of the first lord. As a member of the Cao family, although he was dismissed, he did not want the Cao family to be gained by Yuan Shang. That would be too variable for him. Under the control of the Prime Minister, he could at least guarantee the worry-free life of a rich man. But if he was really degenerate under Yuan Shang's rule, he would become a complete prisoner. Regardless of the wealthy life, his life would be in the hands of Yuan Shang. It would be very difficult to survive if the killing shog was left with just one sentence."

Cao Zhi heard this and said, "As for this, is the second brother really helping me?"

Jia Xu nodded and said, "At least, judging from the current situation, he can only truly help the Prime Minister... However, if he retreats from Yuan Shang, then it's impossible."

Cao Zhi thought for a while and said, "Doctor Jia thinks, what are the benefits for our army when my second brother Zhuo comes out of the mountain at this time?"

Jia Xu thought for a while and said, "Although the second young master's military strategy is of no idea, his outing can at least greatly strengthen the morale of our army. The Cao brothers all went to fight. Together with Zhongzhou, such a lineup and situation can strengthen the fighting spirit of our soldiers and generals, especially at the moment when Guo Jia died, I think it is quite necessary."

When Jia Xu talked about Guo Jia's death, Cao Zhi's face became dimmer again.

After thinking for a while, Cao Zhi sighed and shook his head and said, "Okay, then according to the doctor's words, I will appoint my second brother as General Jianwu, take the post of deputy transfer in the army, come to the front-line military camp to help me."

After hearing this, Jia Xu nodded and smiled.

***************************

On the Zhongzhou battlefield, Cao Zhi re-activated Cao Pi according to Chen Qun's wishes, and on the Xuzhou battlefield, the situation underwent a huge change.

Due to Guo Jia's death and Cao's army had no leader, Zhang Liao could not balance Li Dian and Le Jin. So that night, Le Jin contacted a group of generals who were close to him, and took advantage of the night to lead his troops to the Eastern Wu camp to kill the generals.

At this time, the Eastern Wu also received news of the fall of Xia Pi City, and at the same time found that the generals who captured Xia Pi occupied him under the banner of their own.

The moment he received the news, Zhou Yu's head buzzed. He knew that the situation was not good, so he sent an envoy to the Cao army camp with a letter, hoping to explain it, but he never thought that Le Jin's troops had already arrived before the letter had been sent to the Cao army camp.

In order to avenge Guo Jia, Le Jin refused to let go of any of them, and ordered people to attack the city without asking for help. Zhou Yu wanted to send someone to explain, but Le Jin did not give him a chance to explain. In desperation, the Wu army had to reluctantly fight against Cao's army and fight.

The general responsible for blocking Le Jin is the most powerful general in the martial arts of the Eastern Wu, Taishi Ci!

Taishici commanded the troops and horses, while fighting with Le Jin in the camp, while angering Le Jin.

"Cao's silly general, he still didn't know the plan of Yuan thief. My grand governor and your Guo Jijiu join forces, how could he do such a despicable rebellion? This matter is Yuan's counter-attacking of allies. If you don't know, you will inevitably lead to a disaster!"

Le Jin slaughtered in the Eastern Wu formation, and responded to Taishi Ci while rushing to the scene: "Dog thieves in the Eastern Wu, don't be clever and sarcastic! Today, besides the Erdong Wu navy, which other troops can cross the wind and waves and go straight through the East China Sea! It has been known since ancient times that the south and north horses are still fooling me. Are all the generals of my Cao army easy to bully?"

When Taishi Ci saw Lejin's army's offensive fiercely and as powerful as a rainbow, he showed no mercy when he spoke. He knew that Xiang could not retreat from these Cao troops, so he had no choice but to fight with all his might.

Taishi Ci was able to ask about Nengwu, but he was a top-notch military general today. Although Le Jin was a foreign general of Cao, he was still a little worse than him. As soon as Taishi Ci was serious, Le Jin and his group could not resist it. In addition, the soldiers of the Eastern Wu were already in large numbers, and the decline gradually emerged.

At this moment, a trembling sound came from the ground behind. When he turned around, he saw Cao's general Li Dian leading a group of troops and raiding towards Eastern Wu. However, Li Dian and Le Jin had a close relationship with each other and could not bear to see Le Jin fight against the powerful enemy alone in order to avenge Guo Jia's revenge, so he came to support him.

The addition of Li Dian made the situation even. Cao's army regained the situation again from the declining situation in the face of Taishi Ci's declining momentum. The two sides fought fiercely on the front line of the Eastern Wu and were very happy to kill.

************

Taishici, Li Dian, and Le Jin were fighting outside the tent. Inside the tent, Sun Quan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, circled around the ground, and asked Zhou Yu while turning, saying, "Gongjin, Guo Jia died in battle. Cao's army did not attack Yuan Shang, but instead harmed us. What should we do in this situation?"

Zhou Yu half closed his eyes, pondered quietly for a while, shook his head and said, "From the moment Guo Jia died, the land of Xuzhou has been invincible with Yuan Shang. Even if the remnants of Cao's army unite with us, Wu Hou, although we did not lose this battle, it is meaningless to continue to fight. Only withdrawing troops is the best strategy."
