Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!
Chapter 966 Tiger Army
This task was an easy and pleasant one for Huang Zhong and Chen Gong. After all, they were both veteran generals with rich experience, and they believed they could deal with the Tiger Guards smoothly.
As for Zhang Xiu, Zhao Yun and Wei Yan, Cao Ang gave them a holiday. They had been busy following Cao Ang these days and had not had a good rest, so they had to take a good rest.
Cao Ang also had other reasons for doing this. The Tiger Guards were a formidable enemy, and Cao Ang had to get rid of them as soon as possible.
If Cao Ang did not deal with it, who knows whether the Huben Army would make a comeback and cause harm to Cao Ang.
So Cao Ang decided to let Zhang Xiu, Zhao Yun and Wei Yan rest for a few days and practice their martial arts.
After Cao Ang asked Zhang Xiu and others to return to the dormitory, he went to see Guo Jia.
Cao Ang knew that Guo Jia loved to study conspiracies and intrigues, so Cao Ang planned to ask him for some ideas on how to deal with the mysterious force of the Huben Army.
When Guo Jia heard Cao Ang's intention, he said in surprise, "My lord, are you really going to attack the Tiger Guards?"
Cao Ang nodded and said, "I think the Tiger Guards have crossed my bottom line. This force must be eliminated!"
Guo Jia hesitated for a moment and said, "My Lord, are you sure that the Tiger Guards are really Jiangdong's staff? I always feel that the Tiger Guards are not simple."
"Jiangdong's staff? Jiangdong is able to cultivate such an assassin. This Jiangdong is not simple."
Cao Ang also realized that this matter was not as simple as it seemed.
Cao Ang continued, "The staff of the Tiger Guards must be the pawns of a certain force.
This force has been lurking in Jiangdong for so long and has not made any moves. I am afraid they have long been eyeing our Han Dynasty."
"My lord, do you think it was Sun Ce who did it?" Guo Jia asked tentatively.
Cao Ang's face changed slightly. He felt that Guo Jia's inference was possible. Sun Ce had stationed 50,000 troops in Jiangxia.
In fact, there were more than 100,000 troops on standby in Yuzhou.
If Sun Ce really wanted to replace the Han Dynasty, he would probably have taken action long ago.
"Fengxiao, do you think Sun Ce has the courage or ability to do this?" Cao Ang asked.
"Well." Guo Jia shook his head: "I dare not make any rash comments."
Cao Ang smiled bitterly and said, "Fengxiao, you are deliberately keeping me in suspense. Tell me what you think."
Guo Jia thought for a moment and said, "My lord, I think neither the Sun family of Jiangdong nor Cao Cao dare to easily get involved in the world.
Cao Cao occupied the four counties in southern Jing, and Yuan Tan was eyeing them covetously in the north. If they dared to act recklessly, they would surely be retaliated by Yuan Shao.
Although Sun Ce was known as the Marquis of Wu, he was not strong enough to resist Yuan Shao's attack. "
"Fengxiao, you've been talking for a long time, aren't you afraid that we will become suspicious?" Cao Ang reminded.
Guo Jia chuckled and said, "My lord, this is just a trivial matter.
Besides, we are allies now, and the lord will not doubt me."
"Well, you have a point." Cao Ang looked at Guo Jia with appreciation.
"I wonder how many troops the Tiger Guards have now?"
"The Tiger Guards hid very deeply, and we were unable to find them for the time being.
I estimate that the Tiger Guards have their own personnel in every county." Guo Jia reported.
"Then do you know how many spies there are in the Huben Army?" Cao Ang asked again.
Guo Jia thought for a moment and said: "I think there must be spies in the Tiger Guards, but their number is relatively small.
Otherwise, the power of the Tiger Guards will spread too widely and become difficult to control."
"Which force do you think it is?" Cao Ang asked.
Guo Jia thought for a moment and said, "I think it is the Anbu of the Tiger Guards.
The secret forces of the Huben Army are spread all over Jiangdong, and even in Jiangling, Lujiang, Xuzhou and other places, there are also Huben Army forces. These people are specifically responsible for collecting information for the Huben Army and are responsible for conveying the latest situation of the Huben Army.
The secret personnel of the Tiger Guards have been lying in wait and have never been exposed.
I guess they are the elite troops of the Tiger Guards.
The fact that the Tiger Guards dared to show up this time shows that they have enough confidence."
"Anbu? Interesting." Cao Ang snorted coldly. It seems that there are still some people in this world who are unwilling to be lonely.
Cao Ang said: "Since the secret forces of the Tiger Guards have appeared, they must have some plans. I want to see what their intentions are!"
"My lord, you need to act with caution at this time," Guo Jia advised.
"I understand!" Cao Ang waved his hand: "Thank you Fengxiao for helping me understand the dynamics of the Tiger Guards during this period of time."
"I accept your command and thank you for your grace!" Guo Jia said respectfully.
Cao Ang called Jia Xu again and ordered him to investigate the matter of the Huben Army.
Jia Xu was also very curious about this special organization, the Huben Army. He immediately arranged for the Jinyiwei to investigate the specific information of the Huben Army.
Following Jia Xu's actions, Jiangdong was soon shaken.
After Sun Ce got the news, he smashed the teacup on the table in anger and cursed: "Cao Ang! You are going too far!"
Sun Quan also got the news about the Tiger Guards and was shocked. He knew how powerful the Tiger Guards were, and Cao Ang actually dared to attack them.
If anything went wrong with the Huben Army, Sun Ce would definitely make trouble for him.
Sun Quan hurriedly told Zhou Yu about the Huben Army.
Zhou Yu was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "It seems that Cao Ang has already started to attack us."
"Gongjin, what do you think we should do? Cao Ang is so hateful. He has always been targeting us in Jiangdong. What should we do?" Sun Quan said anxiously.
"Bofu, don't panic. If Cao Ang wants to take action, let him do it. Our army is short of food and supplies, so we can take over Jiangxia." Zhou Yu said calmly.
Zhou Yu's tone was full of arrogance and he was not afraid of Cao Ang at all.
Sun Quan was stunned: "Gongjin, what did you say?"
"Bofu, our chance has come." Zhou Yu said.
"Cao Ang disregarded his integrity and married a foreigner, causing the people of Jiangdong to be humiliated.
Now that Cao Ang can no longer hold the throne, we can seize the opportunity to pursue him."
Sun Ce breathed a sigh of relief. Zhou Yu's words made him feel much more at ease.
The Jiangdong aristocratic families were generally unwilling to participate in the fight for succession. Before his death, Sun Jian had warned the aristocratic families not to interfere.
Sun Ce believed that his own abilities were limited and he was not up to such a heavy responsibility, so he never took any action against the Jiangdong gentry.
But now Cao Ang is marrying a foreign race, and Sun Ce will never allow this to happen. It must be nipped in the bud.
Sun Ce immediately made a decision and said, "Gongjin, I'll leave this matter to you. Make sure Cao Ang is dethroned!"
Zhou Yu smiled and nodded, and Sun Ce finally believed him.
After the two men finished their discussion, Zhou Yu suddenly asked, "Bofu, did the assassin you sent out have any results?"
Sun Ce sighed, "The assassin we sent out was successful, but unfortunately he ran into Cao Ang's master."
"Cao Ang's master?" Zhou Yu frowned. Cao Ang was actually able to ask a master to protect him.
"Yes, he is an excellent martial artist. He beheaded the assassin I sent out with just one sword." Sun Ce replied.
"That's weird." Zhou Yu stroked his chin. (End of this chapter)
