Chapter 213 Wuhuan invades!

In Cao's camp, the battle report reached Cao Cao, which immediately made Cao Cao overjoyed.

"Haha, Jiang Dong is really vulnerable. He dares to provoke us. This is what will happen!"

Nowadays, the frontline army is marching step by step and advancing steadily. Jiangdong's army is on the verge of collapse and is no match for them.

If this continues, it will only be a matter of time before the entire Jiangdong is leveled.

But at this moment, a piece of news came into the camp.

"Report!"

"Wu Huan led his army south to invade!"

This news immediately diluted the cheerful atmosphere in the big tent.

Cao Cao frowned slightly, feeling a little angry.

At first Gongsun Zan fought against Wuhuan, but later Gongsun Zan was destroyed by Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao was destroyed by Cao Cao. Therefore, Cao Cao has always sent troops to defend Wuhuan.

No one would have thought that Wuhuan would invade south at this time. Now is a critical period for them to pacify Jiangdong.

Cao Cao thought for a moment, then turned to look at Ye Fan, his eyes filled with anger, and his meaning was self-evident.

When Ye Fan saw Cao Cao's expression, he guessed what Cao Cao was thinking, so he immediately stood up with a bit of excitement in his tone.

"Even though the princes in the Central Plains are fighting, in the end, this is our business. No matter how we turn, it will not be the turn of mere barbarians to interfere!"

Ye Fan looked at the generals and counselors in the tent with determination in his eyes.

"Everyone, barbarians have repeatedly invaded our Han territory. If you condone them, it will make them even more aggressive, so I can't give them any good looks."

"No matter how we fight in the Central Plains, who are mere barbarians? Since you dare to invade our territory, you should be prepared to never come back!"

The impassioned words made the generals in the big tent suddenly excited.

Yes, a mere Wuhuan actually wants to cause trouble behind their backs. He has made it clear that he does not take them seriously and must not condone them!

Cao Cao also nodded with deep sympathy. You must know that Wuhuan has always been a hidden danger to the Han Dynasty. It is impossible to kill them all. However, it often offends the Han Dynasty's border areas and should be severely punished.

But he was a little hesitant at this time.

"Sir, Jiangdong is right in front of us now. As long as we work harder, we can completely pacify Jiangdong. I wonder what your plans are, sir?"

Ye Fan said without hesitation: "Fight Wuhuan first!"

"Although the Wuhuan are just barbarians, they are very powerful. The fact that they have not been able to completely wipe out the Wuhuan for so long shows that if the Wuhuan goes south, it will definitely pose a threat to our army's rear."

"Therefore, Wu Huan's danger is no less than that of Ma Chao."

Cao Cao couldn't help but frowned in thought, and nodded after a moment.

"Sir, you are right, that is how it should be."

Ye Fan smiled and continued: "The most important thing for us now is to control all the places we control. If there is no trouble, as long as the rear is stable, we can sit back and relax."

Jia Xu stood up in deep agreement, cupped his hands and said: "Prime Minister, I think what Mr. Ye Fan said is true. The crisis of Wuhuan cannot be left alone."

Cheng Yu also nodded and said: "Yes, today's Jiangdong is a paper tiger. Compared to it, it is not even as threatening as Wuhuan. If we capture Jiangdong but lose in the rear, it will be more of a loss than the gain."

Everyone else also agreed. After all, Wuhuan was the immediate danger, and after the last battle, Jiangdong could clearly see that his strength was not as good as before.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Cao Cao made up his mind completely, nodded and said: "Since everyone said so, I think it must be right."

"Cao Ren, I order you to lead an army of 150,000 to guard Jiangdong. You must keep Jiangdong under my watch. I want them to know that Jiangdong may be swallowed up by us at any time!"

What he wanted Cao Ren to do was to use the previous strategy to put pressure on Jiangdong. Over time, Jiangdong's internal forces would be unable to bear it. And I believe that after this battle, Jiangdong no longer dares to make mistakes again.

Cao Ren immediately accepted the order: "Yes, Prime Minister, I will definitely keep a close eye on Jiangdong!"

Cao Cao nodded, and then named several generals.

"Le Jin, Xu Huang, Zhang He, Yu Jin... you are the deputy generals, assisting Cao Ren. You must not take it lightly. Jiangdong will never be able to turn around!"

"Also pay attention to the movements of Lu Xun, Lu Meng and others. These people are insidious and cunning. They caused our army a lot of losses by luring the enemy deep last time. They should not be underestimated."

"Don't worry, Prime Minister, as long as I'm here, I won't let Lu Xun, Lu Meng and others run rampant!"

Cao Ren said confidently.

The other generals whose names were called also came out at this moment, and their answering voices were very loud and full of momentum.

"Prime Minister, please rest assured!"

After making arrangements for Jiangdong, Cao Cao looked at Ye Fan and others.

"Sir, and all of you, please follow my class back to the court to conquer Wuhuan!"

"This time, we must let Wu Huan know the power of our army!"

Everyone cupped their hands and said.

"Yes, Prime Minister!"

……

Ye Fan returned to his mansion to pack his things. After living here for a long time, he had become accustomed to this mansion.

After returning to Cao Jun's rear, there will definitely be a lot of things, and it will not be as leisurely as before.

The servants had to stay, and he only had to pack some commonly used things.

When Sun Shangxiang heard that Ye Fan was leaving, he hurriedly came to Ye Fan.

"Sir, do you want to leave?"

During this time, Sun Shangxiang had also figured out that Ye Fan alone could not change Jiangdong's outcome. Even without Ye Fan, the result would be the same.

But she was still worried in her heart.

Ye Fan smiled, nodded and said, "Yes, I have to leave, and if you want to leave, it's okay."

Sun Shangxiang suddenly felt happy and took her with him. Was it because he meant something different to Mark? Is it because Ye Fan can’t bear to let go of himself?

Just as he was thinking about this, he suddenly heard Ye Fan continue to say: "This time I want to return to Yanzhou. I don't know how long it will take to come back. Naturally, it would be inappropriate for you to follow me."

"However, I can arrange for someone to send you back to Jiangdong. If I plead with the Prime Minister now, the Prime Minister will definitely give me face. Letting you go is not a problem."

There was still a smile on his face, but Sun Shangxiang was stunned for a moment, with a little grievance welling up in his heart.

It turns out that when he said he wanted to leave, he meant sending me away.

It would be good to be able to return to my hometown.

A long time has passed since she escaped from home. The land of Jiangdong is in crisis. She is extremely worried and wants to return to Jiangdong day and night.

She missed her brother, her mother, and even her maid. After all, that was her home.

But when she really thought she could go back, Sun Shangxiang hesitated in her heart because she couldn't let go of Mark.
