NOVEL FROG Chapter 41
Although Boss Cao cursed, he was still quite cautious in serious matters!
After he was depressed, he couldn't help but start to think carefully:
Is it feasible for his second son to openly poach Mi Zhen and the Mi family behind him?
"Fengxiao... Do you think that guy can really conquer the Mi family in just a few days?"
After hearing this, Guo Jia's eyes were full of certainty, and he was obviously very confident in Cao Jian:
"If it were someone else, I wouldn't dare to guarantee it; but what about the Second Young Master? Feng Xiao firmly believed that since he dared to do it, he must be quite sure of it!"
Boss Cao heard it and was skeptical:
"Fengxiao has always been very accurate in judging people and predicting things, I know that.
However, you and Zixiong have always been close, so it is inevitable that you will be biased because of your personal relationship.
Especially in such a big matter, you must not let your personal relationship blind you.……"
Guo Jia smiled calmly and said meaningfully:
"If we really talk about friendship
, who in the world has a deeper relationship with the Second Young Master than you, the father?
The one who is really blinded may not be me, but you, the Lord!"
After saying this, his eyes were full of sincerity, and he said:
"My Lord, think about it!
If it was a year ago, could you imagine that the notorious Second Young Master had been hiding his talents?
Not only is he not unlearned as the outside world has said, but he is also a master of both civil and military skills! Whether it is wisdom or personal bravery, he is first-class in the world!
It is no exaggeration to call him a 'worldly genius'!"
After hearing this, Boss Cao nodded silently to show his approval.
Then, Guo Jia smiled and said:
"The master may have had some prejudice against the second young master because of some things.
In fact, from Fengxiao's understanding of the second young master, his ability is much more unfathomable than what he has shown now! In many things, he not only dares to think and do, but more importantly, he can do it well and do it thoroughly, which is something that ordinary people can't do!"
After listening to this, Boss Cao was silent for a long time, and finally he still had some doubts:
"However, no matter how capable that boy is, it is always hard to explain his feelings! What
's more, Mrs. Mi is Xuande's concubine! The
Mi family is the richest family in Xuzhou, how could they change their ways so easily?"
After hearing this, Guo Jia disagreed and said:
"My Lord, this is wrong!
The Mi family is a merchant family, and merchants value profit!
The reason why the Mi family bet on Liu Bei may be more out of consideration for profit. They saw his potential and believed that he was a rare commodity.
If there was someone who could show greater potential than Liu Bei, and sincerely wooed him, how could the Mi family not be tempted?"
"Besides, Mrs. Mi had been married to Liu Bei for less than a year, so the emotional foundation was probably quite weak!
In addition, when Xiaopei was captured by Lu Bu's army a few days ago, Mrs. Gan and Mrs. Mi were abandoned by Liu Bei when he fled in panic.
If this matter is really investigated, Mrs. Mi and even the Mi family are probably disappointed and disheartened with Liu Bei.……"
"At this moment, if the Second Young Master seizes the opportunity to subdue him, it will definitely be twice as effective with half the effort!"
After hearing this, Boss Cao couldn't help but clap his hands and laugh:
"Haha! Great! Very great!——！！"
"Fengxiao, you really have a good grasp of people's hearts!
If this is really as you said, then it is indeed feasible.……"
After saying this, he couldn't help but rub his hands happily:
"If you really want to make this happen, is there anything else I can do for you?"
Guo Jia smiled calmly.
"Now there is indeed something that requires the Lord's help!
Even if the Lord does not ask, I am preparing to make a request on behalf of the Second Young Master!
If the Second Young Master really wants to subdue the Mi family? The more bargaining chips he has, the better!
With his current status as a military commander, even with the support of the Cao family behind him, his status is still not good enough."
After saying that, he did not wait for Boss Cao to ask, and said directly:
"Speaking of which, since the army set out, the Second Young Master has already made many achievements.
First, he used a clever strategy to capture Xiaopei and defeat the enemy army, and then he took Xuzhou by surprise and killed the enemy general in front of the battle!
Just these three major events, if placed on an ordinary soldier, can be said to be a great military achievement!
For this reason, the Second Young Master should have been rewarded long ago!
I wonder how the lord is going to reward him?"
After hearing this, Boss Cao laughed:
"If Fengxiao hadn't told me, I would have almost forgotten the contribution of this kid Zixiong!"
"In my opinion, I wanted to wait until the war was over and Lu Bu was completely eliminated before rewarding everyone according to their merits.
Looking at the current situation, Xia Pi has been trapped for a long time and it will not end in a short time...
In this case, it is indeed necessary to put the matter of rewarding merits on the agenda in advance.
In order not to discourage the hearts of the soldiers who are fighting desperately.……"
After a brief pause, Boss Cao had made a decision:
"The achievements of the other generals and soldiers are recorded by the Gongcao.
When they are collected together later, I will ask Wen Ruo to draft a reward decree: in the name of the emperor, send someone from Xuchang to deliver it at full speed!"
"As for Zixiong's contribution?
He made a brilliant plan to capture Xiaopei, and his contribution behind the scenes was indispensable. He should be promoted to a higher rank, to a lieutenant!
He led the troops in a surprise attack and captured Xuzhou at a very low cost?
This was another great achievement, and he should be promoted to a higher rank, to a general!
As for personally killing the enemy general in front of the battle?
This was also a rare great achievement, and he should be promoted to a general!"
"……"
On this day!
After Guo Jia reminded him, Boss Cao finally decided on the rewards for the soldiers.
Among them, Cao Jian stood out: he was originally a military commander, but he was promoted three levels to become a general!
Once the news spread, the whole army was shocked...
