    After finishing dressing and grooming, Cao Cao left the backyard and came to the hall where he usually worked. He had just climbed two stairs and still had three steps to go before the housekeeper rushed in with Mao Jie.

    Because the grand ceremony of enthroning the queen is approaching, Cao Cao¡¯s men have begun to take turns to watch the night to prevent any emergencies.

    "It's Xiaoxian (characterized by Mao Jie), is there anything urgent?" Cao Cao asked standing on the steps. Seeing Mao Jie like this, Cao Cao felt a little panicked for no reason. Don't let anything bad happen.

    "My lord, I heard that Liu Zhe is going to lead one million troops into Yanzhou." Mao Jie rushed in front of Cao Cao, not caring about saluting, and hurriedly told Cao Cao the news brought by Le Jin's people.

    "Plop!" Cao Cao lost his balance and fell down the steps.

    "My lord, are you okay?" Mao Jie hurriedly helped Cao Cao up and asked with concern.

    "Are you right?" After Cao Cao got up, he immediately asked Mao Jie if he was right.

    Mao Jie shook his head and said he was right.

    "ah."

    Cao Cao suddenly felt a splitting headache. He didn¡¯t know whether it was from the fall or from being stimulated to relapse. In short, Cao Cao now had a headache and was very scared.

    "Is it really true?" Cao Cao hoped that this was a dream. It would be great to wake up after falling down the stairs just now.

    "My lord, this is General Le Jin's letter." Mao Jie handed Le Jin's letter to Cao Cao.

    Cao Cao took it and saw, well, it was still white paper produced in Youzhou.  This white paper is not cheap, and Cao Cao is reluctant to use it indiscriminately.

    Cao Cao quickly took it and read the contents of the letter. When he read it, Cao Cao's heart sank.

    Cao Cao held the information sent by Le Jin in his hand and did not speak for a long time. Liu Zhe's one million army gave Cao Cao a great shock.

    How many troops Liu Zhe has has been a question that has been bothering other princes. They have sent spies to Liu Zhe's territory and kept probing, but they have never been able to find out.

    Liu Zhe has always covered up his situation very well. When he goes out to fight with others, he always goes out with some troops, no more than 200,000 at most. Over time, other princes can only rely on guesswork.

    Cao Cao also lost a lot of hair over the question of how many troops Liu Zhe had. Later, after he couldn't figure it out, he could only guess.

    With one Yanzhou, two-fifths of Sili, and half of Yongzhou, Cao Cao was able to raise an army of four to five million.  Liu Zhe had a larger territory than him, a larger population, and more abundant funds and materials. Liu Zhe was able to raise an army of one million. Cao Cao was not surprised by this. He had already guessed that Liu Zhe had a hundred soldiers.  There are tens of thousands of troops.

    But when the news that Liu Zhe really had one million troops appeared in front of him, Cao Cao couldn't help but lose consciousness. He secretly felt cold in his heart and was shocked by this terrifying number.

    "My lord, what should we do now?" Although Mao Jie is usually full of wits, he doesn't know what to do at this time. Should he let Liu Zhe continue to come to Yanzhou, or should he simply refuse to let Liu Zhe come.

    Who knows whether Liu Zhe will be angered by refusing to come to Yanzhou? What if Liu Zhe insists on coming to attend the emperor's ceremony for enthroning the emperor, and if he doesn't give it to him, he will call him directly, even if he comes to Xudu?  It would be an unwise choice to start a war with Liu Zhe now, and he would definitely lose.

    If you agree that Liu Zhe will continue to come to Yanzhou, do you want him to bring an army of one million into Yanzhou?  Don't be kidding, one million people can squeeze Cao Cao's people out of Yanzhou just by squeezing. By then, Liu Zhe will be able to become the new master of Yanzhou without any effort.

    Cao Cao covered his head. He had a splitting headache. His brain hurt so badly that it was difficult to think clearly.

    "Let others discuss the matter." Cao Cao finally dropped these words and entered first.

    By the time others arrived, Cao Cao was already sitting at the top of the meeting hall, holding an ice pack in his left hand and covering his head. This gesture was to tell his subordinates that your lord has another headache.

    "What do you think of this matter?" Cao Cao asked after his men sat down.

    After the subordinates all looked at each other, they already knew the news sent back by Le Jin. To be honest, the one million army was indeed beyond their expectation.  Before this, they had always guessed that Liu Zhe's headquarters could have up to 100,000 troops.

    ¡°Because I¡¯m here to attend the emperor¡¯s wedding, not to fight. Bringing too many soldiers and horses may make people in the world think that I have evil intentions.  They thought no one would do this, but this damn Liu Zhe just did it.

    After they all learned the news, they immediately knew that they had been misled by Liu Zhe. Liu Zhe did not say how many troops there were in the headquarters.They all guessed Liu Zhe's troops and horses according to conventional ideas, but they all guessed wrong.  Not fifty thousand, not one hundred thousand, not two hundred thousand, but a terrifying one million.

    Damn, this is so bullying. After thinking about it clearly, many people cursed Liu Zhe in their hearts, saying that Liu Zhe is not a human being. How can anyone have a million troops in his headquarters?

    Now Cao Cao asked them their opinions on this matter, but the staff and counselors were still digesting the news, so no one spoke out for the time being.

    "Why are you all mute?" Upon seeing this, Cao Cao became angry and shouted loudly, asking his men why they were mute at the critical moment.

    Normally, Cao Cao rarely behaves like this. The reason why he is so out of control now is because he was stimulated by Liu Zhe's army of one million, and he couldn't control himself.

    Cao Hong was the first to jump out again and asked for orders: "My lord, please give the order. Let me lead an army to support Baimajin and drive the Youzhou army back to the other side."

    "Yes, lord, I am willing to be the vanguard." Xiahou Dun also jumped out.

    Other generals also asked for help.

    Unlike Cao Cao¡¯s advisers and staff, most of the generals were straightforward and straightforward, without thinking too much, they just fought.

    Naturally, Cao Cao would not accept what these people said. If he listened to their words and went to fight Liu Zhe, he would lose in a matter of minutes.  Cao Cao knew that he was not strong enough to compete with Liu Zhe.

    But having said that, Cao Cao originally thought that even if his strength was not as good as Liu Zhe, it would not be too far behind, but now an army of one million was like a blow to the head, making Cao Cao understand the huge gap between himself and Liu Zhe.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
