He never thought that Cao Cao and Xun Yu would come to visit him personally.
"Prime Minister, why are you here? You should have told me before you came so that I could be prepared."
Xu Chu's attitude took a 180-degree turn when he saw that it was Cao Cao and Xun Yu who came.
"Xu Chu, you seem to be having a great time here. Are you not going to return to the position of General of the Three Armies?"
Cao Cao's words made Xu Chu happy and surprised.
Xu Chu never thought that Cao Cao would hand over the position of General of the Three Armies to him so easily.
It seemed that his persistence these days was worth it.
"Prime Minister, this is a little too fast. I haven't gotten used to the ups and downs yet."
"Why are you still not used to it? Do you feel that you are not up to the job? If you feel that you are not up to the job, then pretend that I didn't say anything."
Cao Cao had a firm grasp of Xu Chu's emotions.
In fact, the reason why he was so modest was that he wanted Cao Cao to praise him.
However, not only did he not praise Xu Chu, he quickly took back his words.
It was as if a basin of cold water had been poured over Xu Chu's head.
"Don't, Prime Minister. I feel that I am up to the position of General of the Three Armies. Can't you praise me?"
Seeing Xu Chu's embarrassed look, the surrounding people began to laugh.
"Laugh, laugh, laugh, what the hell are you laughing at? I'm going to twist your heads off …"
Xu Chu did not dare to say anything excessive to Cao Cao.
However, he also wanted to give Cao Cao a hint through his subordinates.
As the saying went, the older the ginger, the spicier it was. Xu Chu's tricks had long been seen through by Cao Cao.
"Alright, alright. Don't make things difficult for them. You guys can continue acting here. I am going back. If you want to go back with me, then go ahead."
Seeing that his thoughts were seen through, Xu Chu felt a little embarrassed.
Without saying anything, he followed Cao Cao and Xun Yu's footwork and chased after them.
"Didn't I hear that you wanted to settle down here?"
Xu Chu scratched his head in response to Cao Cao's teasing.
"Isn't that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility? Besides, how can you bear to leave me here? It's also a loss for you. "
Then, Xu Chu began to boast shamelessly.
Cao Cao and Xun Yu didn't care about his words at all.
Seeing that he was directing and acting, Xu Chu closed his eyes to rest.
Looking at the silent Xu Chu, Xun Yu and Cao Cao looked at each other and smiled.
That laughter was very magnanimous, and even the carriage seemed to have sensed the changes in their emotions.
The horse became excited, and its speed was much faster than before.
The increasing speed of the horse made Xu Chu feel even more unbalanced.
At this moment, Xu Chu felt like a joke.
Even the horse beneath his feet was laughing at him.
The more Xu Chu thought about it, the angrier he got.
"Don't be angry. Haven't you become the commander of the three armies? What's there to be angry about?"
Xun Yu's words eased the anger in Xu Chu's heart.
…
"Mr. Bai, this is the brief sent back from Wuchang."
At this moment, a signaller was kneeling in front of Bai Feng conscientiously.
"Show it to me and let me have a look. You guys can leave now …"
Bai Feng slowly opened the bamboo slip. Because it was already night time, Bai Feng lit a candle again.
He slowly brought the candle closer to him and started to read it word by word.
"Mr. Bai Feng, I have received your letter. First of all, I would like to congratulate you on the successful completion of the rewarding of the three armies. In response to your call, I also held a banquet for 100 officials in Xuchang. Xu Chu even killed Xu You at the banquet. I will be waiting for your victory report in Xuchang. I look forward to your triumphant return …"
This news was like a letter.
He didn't describe the specific combat mission or military operation.
But it implied Cao Cao's infinite love for Bai Feng.
Bai Feng also felt unconditional trust from Cao Cao's letter.
It seemed that Cao Cao's banquet for 100 officials was to celebrate Bai Feng.
In Cao Cao's eyes, it was only a matter of time before Bai Feng conquered the world and unified the mountains and rivers.
From these simple words, Bai Feng felt an inexplicable warmth.
That was the happiness of being unconditionally trusted and firm.
At this moment, Bai Feng could understand Cao Cao's feelings very well.
On the surface, the two of them were monarchs and courtiers.
But in fact, the two of them were more than bosom friends.
Among the monarchs in the world, who would dare to hand over all their power to kill the three armies to one person?
Among the monarchs in the world, who would dare to entrust all their lives to one person?
Among the three kingdoms, only Cao Cao had such courage.
Especially Cao Cao's last sentence.
"I hope you take care of yourself …"
Bai Feng could only feel such warmth from his family.
But at this moment, Cao Cao was like an elder to him.
Not only did he entrust him with an important task, but he also gave him full authority to handle it.
Bai Feng sighed in his heart.
In just a short month, he actually gained two different feelings at the same time.
Even a fierce person had his own family. Under the strong appearance, there was endless longing.
There was also a warm harbor in his heart.
This made Bai Feng even more determined to help Cao Cao unify the mountains and rivers.
Their next goal was to conquer Xichuan first.
Xichuan had endless wealth, and it was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
If they wanted to conquer Xichuan, they had to plan well.
Bai Feng immediately called for an emergency meeting that night.
He summoned Jiang Wei, Deng Ai, Cao Ren, and many other generals to discuss the matter.
"The reason why I gathered all the generals so late is that there are important combat tasks to be assigned."
Hearing that Bai Feng was finally going to make a big move after being silent for so long, everyone was excited.
"Our next goal is to conquer Xichuan."
As soon as Bai Feng said this, the generals began to discuss.
Among them, Jiang Wei, who was more strategic, spoke out his suggestions and opinions.
"Sir, Xichuan is the richest place in the entire Shu Han. If we destroy it, it will be a loss for us."
"So, my suggestion is to take Xichuan, then Jingzhou, destroy the Sun-Liu alliance, and defeat the two one by one …"
The generals listened to Jiang Wei's strategic ideas and agreed.
Bai Feng also nodded in satisfaction.
Because Bai Feng's goal was not only Xichuan. Xichuan was just a springboard for Bai Feng to conquer Shu Han.
"However, the next task is to send someone to conquer Xichuan. We have to work together and try to conquer Xichuan without losing a single soldier."
"Sir, are you interested in Feichuan, that piece of land that is overflowing with oil?"
Cao Ren said with a serious face.
