Three Kingdoms: Cao Cao is stunned when he reveals his time-traveling identity.

"Sir, may we now launch our attack?"

Not long after Xu Chu arrived.

Jian Yong visited again.

This time, his expression was even more serious.

As long as Su Chen continues to drag things out.

He would have to find a way to launch an offensive.

There's only one possible reason for this unexplained delay!

That means Su Chen might try to take action against them!

If that's the case, then it's definitely not a good place to stay.

"That's fine."

"Our army will advance south as soon as possible."

"And you, on the other hand, are launching a feint attack in the southwest direction."

"Remember, a feint attack is sufficient."

Su Chen nodded and said.

Upon hearing this, Jian Yong was taken aback at first, then said:

"Does the gentleman mean to feign an attempt to join forces with Cao Ren's army?"

Su Chen nodded:

"That's right, and not only that."

"During the march, send people to Yuan Shu's cities to spread rumors as much as possible."

"Then he said that Liu Biao was already planning to punish the rebels."

Upon hearing this, Jian Yong's eyes lit up:

"This way, Yuan Shu can concentrate his efforts on the western front!"

"Does the gentleman mean to launch a major attack on the south flank?"

Su Chen smiled slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Having received the answer he wanted, Jian Yong finally felt relieved and strode away.

Just after Jian Yong left.

Cao Ang then spoke:

"Sir, why not just join up with Uncle Zixiao and the others?"

"With such an offensive against the south, we clearly don't have enough troops."

Cao Ang was absolutely right.

Su Chen currently has around 800 new recruits under his command.

There are also three thousand Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

And the 10,000 reinforcements brought by Xiahou Dun.

There were only a little over 13,000 people in total.

If we want to use these troops to advance directly south.

That's obviously impossible.

Yuan Shu's troops were not to be trifled with.

This time, they were able to achieve a decisive victory in their first battle and capture the city held by Lü Bu.

It wasn't just the strategy that caused it; luck also played a part.

However, Cao Ang never expected this.

Su Chen actually chose to head straight south!

They even transferred Liu Bei's more than 10,000 troops elsewhere?!

Is this still available?

Su Chen was too confident in his own plan.

Or is it because he trusts his troops too much?

Thinking of this, Cao Ang immediately shook his head.

neither.

If Su Chen were such an impetuous person, he would never have achieved what he has today.

"We won't actually attack the north flank."

"It's just using Liu Bei's army as a smokescreen to buy time for our army."

Su Chen smiled slightly and spoke calmly.

"Delaying time?"

"What time are you delaying for?"

Cao Ang was completely stunned.

Su Chen continued:

"Wait for the Minister of Works to lead a large army to Xuzhou."

"There are troops from Liu Bei and General Cao Ren, plus the news that Liu Biao has joined the war."

"Put all of Yuan Shu's energy on the western flank."

"In this way, once the Grand Commandant's army arrives, our army can march all the way towards Shouchun."

Hearing Su Chen's plan.

Cao Ang then suddenly realized:

"When will Father arrive?"

"tomorrow."

"tomorrow?"

Cao Ang was dumbfounded:

"Since it's tomorrow, why not lead the army to the vanguard?"

"Wouldn't it be much more efficient if Father came?"

Su Chen shook his head heavily.

He looked at Cao Ang with a solemn expression:

"Brother-in-law, you are mistaken."

"You've forgotten a very important reason!"

Cao Ang's expression immediately tensed up:

"Sir, are you perhaps afraid of alerting the enemy?"

"But I think that by doing this, we can confuse the public and make it even more difficult for Yuan Shu to take action."

Su Chen took a deep breath and shrugged helplessly.

"No."

"Don't forget, I'm just a lowly clerk."

"What does a mere clerk know about warfare?"

"We definitely have to wait for Sikong to arrive and take charge of the situation."

Upon hearing this, Cao Ang nearly vomited blood.

This was the first time he had ever seen Su Chen so serious.

The results of it?

You're being serious, but what kind of nonsense are you spouting?!

Su Chen doesn't understand warfare?

From Wancheng, Jia Xu's plan was easily thwarted.

Xuzhou was captured easily without bloodshed.

Then there's Lü Bu, who killed him with a feint attack.

This is what you call not knowing how to fight?!

"Sir, you wouldn't possibly...?"

"You just don't want to take responsibility, do you?"

Cao Ang hesitated for a moment before expressing his thoughts.

Su Chen's expression immediately changed:

"nonsense."

"Could this be considered an unwillingness to take responsibility?"

"This is to leave the opportunity to show off to the boss!"

"Forget it, you wouldn't understand even if I told you."

"You're a rich kid, how could you possibly understand the pain of us working people?"

"..."

Cao Ang was completely dumbfounded.

What boss?

What rich second generation?

What are working people?

Sir, have you gone mad and are spouting nonsense?

"Forget it, you wouldn't understand even if I told you."

"I'm going back to catch up on some sleep."

"I drank with Xu Chu for half a day, and I'm so sleepy."

Su Chen waved his hand, no longer wasting words with Cao Ang, and turned to leave.

Suddenly, only Cao Ang was left standing there, bewildered in the wind.

Actually, Su Chen waited for Cao Cao to arrive before launching another attack, mainly for two reasons.

Firstly, generals, including Xiahou Dun, are not people that a mere clerk like him can command.

Even if Xiahou Dun was willing to obey orders.

If someone uses this against you later, it would be a huge loss.

Even in this vanguard attack, most of the orders were given through Cao Chun.

Secondly, and most importantly.

Su Chen had already decided before he arrived that he did not want real power.

Once you have real power, there are too many things to deal with.

That's not troublesome enough.

It's better to just stay idle like this.

Occasionally, he would offer some advice to Boss Cao on how to manage the business.

That's enough.

Actually, if possible.

Su Chen couldn't wait to take Qinghe to live a secluded life in the mountains, enjoying a carefree and happy existence.

Not everyone is willing to fight for supremacy everywhere.

Not to mention licking blood from the edge of a knife.

Furthermore, Su Chen truly disliked the lifeless battlefield filled with the stench of blood.

Even though I have been on many battlefields.

But the smell still made Su Chen feel nauseous.

"I hope the war can end soon."

Su Chen sighed softly.

We've gotten used to living in this peaceful modern era.

Arriving in such a turbulent era, it's really hard to get used to.

We must be wary of being plotted against in many places.

There is no one you can completely trust.

It's clear that this situation will continue for quite some time until things settle down.

"Sir, sir!"

Just as Su Chen was feeling sentimental.

Suddenly, Cao Xing's voice came from not far away.

"What is it?"

Su Chen frowned involuntarily.

I was just feeling sentimental.

How could you ruin the atmosphere like that?

Cao Xing, however, ran over in a panic:

"The Minister of Works first sent scouts."

"They said they need to see you; they have important information to report!"

Upon hearing this, Su Chen was slightly taken aback.

Isn't Boss Cao supposed to arrive tomorrow?

What urgent matter could be causing him such a hurry?

Send scouts directly?

"Walk."

Su Chen didn't have time to think much before he hurriedly spoke.

Immediately afterwards, he took Cao Xing and left quickly.
