Chapter 231 Talented Person Under The Heaven
Translated by [email protected]
Cao Cao rode his horse out of Xudu but he was unable to find Liu Ye He wanted to bring Liu Ye back to Xudu but Xun You, as in charge of Xudu shook his head and said that he did not see Liu Ye Even Liu Ye’s residence was e any valuables with him but all the valuables are ret! To have eyes but to be unable to see talent!” Cao Cao’s intestines regretted letting go of such talent! (TN: Yes Intestines)
He now re to speak Liu Ye probably wanted to report about the ballistae at that tiave up such an opportunity just because he was suspicious of Liu Ye
The wisdo had to rely on books to invent the ballistae but Liu Ye replicated it just by relying on Cao Cao’s inforh it was inferior, Liu Ye could create a better one provided he had the tiet it!” Guo Jia also felt helpless and bla late Had he not drink wine, he would have noticed the ballistae earlier and could have prevented this froenerals about the scenario of Cao Cao chasing out Liu Ye It was a scenario that Guo Jia himself would be unable to endure had it happen to him
Guo Jia was once loyal to Yuan Shao but because Yuan Shao treated him with disdain and did not use his talents, Guo Jia also left to serve Cao Cao
“Feng Xiao! You do not know! I am very afraid!” How could Cao Cao not be afraid? For such a talented person to leave him, would still be okay if the person went into seclusion However, if the talented person joined soe threat Cao Cao was afraid that Liu Ye would change allegiance to Yuan Shao At that time, Yuan Shao would really rejoice
“Don’t worry Milord!” Guo Jia reassured Cao Cao “Ziyang would not seek refuge with Yuan Shao!” Guo Jia was not speaking empty words but a fact Yuan Shao was someone who treats the Han in disdain Compared to Cao Cao, he would be treated even worse at Yuan Shao’s Ared to obtain an official position Had he served Yuan Shao, he would most likely end up as a clerk! All the seats of power there would be given to the Hebei nobles Even if Yuan Shao wanted to give hi the Hebei nobles! Guo Jia believes that Liu Ye would not be so stupid to go to Yuan Shao On top of that, Yuan Shao did not think much of the ballistae He believed that the reports of the battle at the Yangtze River is false He also believes that that tens of thousands of soldiers in Jiangdong and Jingzhou were sht the moment Cao Cao’s Arratulatory gift or ask for the ballistae
The people in charge are the arrogant ones
“My brother, your te help toand did not want to think about Liu Ye anyet rid of that troublesoxiao, can you replicate the ballistae?” If Liu Ye was around, Cao Cao would not be worried as this ballista was invented by Liu Ye On the other hand, Guo Jia may be a top advisor but he was terrible at ood mechanic skills The craftsman would just need to analyze it” Guo Jia has terrible mechanic skills and does not want to show his incoht as well just teach them He does not believe that each part cannot be re the ballista Especially when they have Liu Ye’s blueprints
“The ballista is no problem The question is if Milord can hold out at Guandu” Guo Jia needs Cao Cao to be able to defend Guandu That way, the ballistae can be developed and used
“Rest assured Fengxiao Although your lord is now dinize talent, he is still not a bungling oaf! With these 100,000 soldiers, we can hold out for at least 3 months” Cao Cao has his own self confidence If he wasn’t a ruler, Cao Cao would be a general that is adapt in both the pen and the sword Before becoainst the Yellow Turbans At that ti Cao Cao could often give good proposals and was also a vanguard like Lu Bu However, Cao Cao would later beco the value of his own life, Cao Cao gave up being a vanguard to someone under his co and his strongBoth es
Lu Bu’s advantage was that as long as Lu Bu is around, the e was if Lu Bu was killed or besieged, it would become fatal to thethe 18 warlords at Hulao Gate The soldiers garrisoned at the gate all also lose morale
On the other hand, Cao Cao’sfrom the rear ensures his own safety but his soldiers would not be able to be as strong as Lu Bu’s soldiers
Even the Ferocious Cavalry was inferior to the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry and could only be used to apply some pressure to the Lu Bu’s Army
When Cao Cao claim to be able to hold back Yuan Shao for at least 3modest He was actually able to defend Guandu for 6 months Yuan Shao would need to sacrifice hundreds of thousands of soldiers if he wants to capture Guandu!
“Haha, in that case, I proive you the ballista just before Guandu is captured” Guo Jia joked He knew that Cao Cao is currently under a lot of pressure so he decided to share the pressure with hiht!” Cao Cao sh when he ith Guo Jia Everywhere else, including his own home, Cao Cao’s actions were spied on and revealed Ever since the death of Cao Ang, Cao Cao noticed his children all acting strangely Fa solean, Yuan Shao’s soldiers continued to attack Guandu Meanwhile, Cao Cao did not follow Cheng Yu’s proposal to attack Qingzhou He divided his army into two, the first ar in the camp to avoid war and to load the ballistae onto the warshi+ps
The scale of the battle becaer over time What started as an assault by a few thousand soldiers became an assault by tens of thousands of soldiers Eventually, Yuan Shao lost his patience and ordered all of his soldiers to attack The Yellow River became the Red River as the whole river was filled with dead bodies and blood
Liu Mang on the other hand does not know about the battle at Guandu All he knoas that he is now married and could now tell the world that My father-in-law is Lu Bu! (TN: Roll credits)
Miss Lu also beca instead of a willful and violent woman If it was not because Miss Lu had a birthht that Lu Bu had two daughters Liu Mang now has three wives That is Lu Lingqi, Yuan Fang and his concubine He Yu He Yu did not dare to call herself a Qiao and could only becoht and woke up the next day with a sore waist
