"This person is Zhou Yu, the Admiral of the Dong Yue Wu Navy."
Bai Feng did not beat around the bush and continued.
"Zhou Yu is on good terms with Bo Fu. When he entered the official road just now, he belongs to Bo Fu's faction. Even if his relationship with Sun Quan is not deep, it is inevitable that there will be animosity between them."
"Da Qiao is currently the biggest point of conflict between Zhou Yu and Sun Quan. I can use this to make a big fuss and drive a wedge between the two."
"There are some peddlers on the street who sell the zither scores written by Da Qiao herself. I had my friend copy it."
At this point, Cao Cao roughly understood Bai Feng's intentions. He narrowed his eyes and said,
"Sir, you mean to use Da Qiao to strengthen the factions in Jiangdong and cause them to fall apart?"
"That's right."
Bai Feng smiled faintly and said, "When I came back, I wanted to look for the Prime Minister.
"I was just about to look for the Prime Minister when I came back this time. It just so happens that the Prime Minister summoned me, so please do me a favor."
Cao Cao had already dispelled his misgivings and hurriedly said,
"Sir, please speak."
Bai Feng continued,
"Prime Minister, please send people to spread some rumors in Jiangdong. Say that Da Qiao faked her death and has now appeared. Write a letter to Sun Shao and Zhou Yu."
"However, this time, I only prepared a letter for Sun Shao. I did not prepare a letter for Zhou Yu."
At this point, Cao Cao had an epiphany and hurriedly clapped his hands, saying, "Wonderful!
Using something out of nothing to drive a wedge between them, Sir, this plan is too ingenious! "
Ever since Sun Quan came to power, Cao Cao had begun to pay special attention to him.
Although Sun Quan looked like a wise ruler, in reality, he was extremely shrewd and astute. Moreover, he was just as suspicious as Cao Cao.
Once such rumors spread, Sun Quan would doubtfully go to Sun Shao to see if Da Qiao had a letter personally written by Sun Shao. When he found out, Zhou Yu would not be able to escape responsibility.
If Zhou Yu really did receive the letter, it would be easy to explain. However, if Zhou Yu did not, Sun Quan would misunderstand and think that Zhou Yu had other intentions.
The two already had a grudge against each other. When the time came, it would definitely fall apart!
Bai Feng cupped his hands and said,
"Good, good, good!"
Our great cause will surely succeed! "
Bai Feng did not say anything else. He could tell that Cao Cao was really overjoyed this time. His explanation had been successful.
Then Cao Cao stopped smiling, put his hands on Bai Feng's shoulders, and said seriously,
"Everyone says that the Crouching Dragon and the Phoenix Chick, if one of them wins the world, they will win the world. Now, in my opinion, this is pure nonsense! Only the one who gets the Bai Feng can get the world! "
Huo!
Bai Feng was almost frightened by Cao Cao. This guy was too unrestrained, praising himself in front of him.
Don't you know that people can be shy?
However, Cao Cao's words were crude but not crude. Be it Crouching Dragon or Fledgling Phoenix, neither of them was a true opponent in his heart.
With modern wisdom and the support of the System, if he couldn't defeat these two people, then this trip would have been in vain.
"However …"
Cao Cao suddenly put away his smile. His expression was rather serious as he said in a deep voice,
"Although the Battle of Red Cliffs is extremely important, I have an even more important matter to hand over to you, Sir."
Bai Feng was almost frightened by Cao Cao's sudden change in expression.
This change in expression was as fast as when Dou E was crying for injustice and the sun was shining high in the sky and it started snowing.
Generally speaking, Boss Cao rarely acted like this, but when he became so serious, it was definitely not a good thing.
Bai Feng could only brace himself and say,
"Prime Minister, what are you talking about?"
Cao Cao continued,
"Jingzhou has just come under my command, and the people's hearts are still unstable. Sir, your ability to govern the people's hearts is much better than Liu Bei's. As the saying goes, the capable do more work."
"I want Mr. Bai to stay behind and help me look after Jingzhou, waiting for me to return victorious from the battle."
Hearing this, Bai Feng's face instantly darkened.
Look after the home?
Are you kidding me?
Seeing that Bai Feng was silent, Cao Cao added, "Sir, don't worry.
This will be a naval battle, so I naturally won't bring the cavalry under my command. When the time comes, the cavalry, including the Ferocious Cavalry, will all listen to Sir's commands. "
"If there is a riot, Sir can send Cao Ren, Cao Chun, and the others to deal with it. In terms of military authority, I will definitely make things convenient for Sir."
"I definitely won't let what happened to Cao Hong happen again."
Bai Feng immediately rolled his eyes at Cao Cao.
Although what he said was true, it wasn't completely true!
The probability of a riot in Jingzhou happening was ridiculously low!
Right now, there were only two forces that dared to oppose Cao Cao. One was Liu Bei, and the other was Sun Quan. The barbarians in the north were resisting, but the other forces had already been trampled by Cao Cao.
Which bandits and bandits dared to provoke the Cao Army?
Bai Feng wasn't worried about the people outside, but the people inside!
Those landowning households!
When Cao Cao went to war and let him oversee Jingzhou, those landowning households would definitely come and disturb him.
Bai Feng wasn't afraid of them, but he normally liked peace and quiet. Listening to these old blockheads talk nonsense every day was so annoying that he could die of annoyance.
"Prime Minister, I'm afraid …"
Bai Feng didn't even think about it and was about to refuse.
Cao Cao hurriedly waved his hand to stop Bai Feng and smiled.
"Sir, I'm willing to entrust this matter to you because I have great trust in you. Moreover, it's no exaggeration to say that Sir's talent is unparalleled in our army! Other than you, there's no one else. "
"This matter is decided!"
Hearing this, Bai Feng hesitated.
Although overseeing Jingzhou was somewhat difficult, it wasn't completely without benefits.
This time, Cao Cao was willing to give him full authority over Jingzhou. This was clearly a test to see if he could handle the wrongs that came with authority.
If it was feasible, with Cao Cao's temperament, his official position would definitely not be as small as that of a Deputy Censor.
When he returned from the Battle of Red Cliff, the difficulty of obtaining the position of Wine Chancellor would be greatly reduced!
When he thought about the generous rewards of this mission, Bai Feng was somewhat tempted.
"Then this subject will accept. Many thanks for Prime Minister's trust!"
With this thought, Bai Feng clasped his hands and agreed.
Wasn't it just listening to the chatter of those landowning households? What was there to be afraid of?
"Good! As expected of Sir, you are truly daring. Sir, please accept this. "
After saying this, Cao Cao took out an exquisite box from a cabinet and handed it to Bai Feng.
"This is the Tiger Tally of my army. When I'm not here, Sir only needs to hold this item and all the cavalry under my command will listen to Sir's orders. At that time, if anyone dares to disobey, Sir can send a message to me at any time, and I won't let them off lightly!"
It seemed like after all the work he had done at the Battle of Red Cliff, Cao Cao had absolute trust in him, even giving him the Tiger Tally.
