Chapter 731: Xu You and Guo Tu Backstab Each Other (1st update!)

"You... this..."

Seeing Ju Shou, hearing this, shook his head, sighed, and bowed to Yuan Shao: "Please forgive me, My Lord; I truly should not have complained about these things at this time!"

"As Guo Tu said, since this matter is a foregone conclusion, discussing right and wrong has no meaning!"

"As for solving the problem of Especially Guan Yu Yu? Our army currently has no general who is his match; we can only deal with him by using our numerical advantage!"

"No matter how strong Especially Guan Yu Yu is, he doesn't count for much on the entire battlefield!"

"As long as I can defeat Cao Cao in the overall situation, Especially Guan Yu Yu will naturally no longer be a threat!"

"Currently, besides having more troops, our army's advantage is that our grain and supplies are more abundant."

"Therefore, I think continuing to maintain the current rhythm, constantly attacking Cao Cao, and constantly applying pressure is the best response!"

"When Cao Cao's army can no longer withstand the pressure, or when their grain runs out, that will be the day our army breaks the Cao army."

Seeing Ju Shou was actually speechless in his heart.

It was clearly Yuan Shao and Guo Tu's fault, so how did it become his own mistake?

Can't one even speak the truth?

Of course, he didn't have such low emotional intelligence; naturally, he wouldn't clash head-on at this time.

Otherwise, there would definitely be no good outcome.

He appeared calm on the surface, but could only lament in his heart.

Yuan Shao, hearing Seeing Ju Shou take the initiative to soften his stance and admit his mistake, naturally wouldn't pursue anything further.

After all, he wasn't stupid; he had already realized by now that he truly shouldn't have killed Liu Bei at this time.

Even if Liu Bei had truly deceived him, imprisoning him temporarily would have been better than killing him!

If he really wanted to kill him, he could have waited until the war with Cao Cao ended and he had occupied the three provinces of the Central Plains.

By then, he would already be the number one warlord under heaven; a mere Liu Bei, killing him would be nothing.

By then, Especially Guan Yu Yu and Zhang Fei wouldn't be threats either.

On the contrary, now he had to be careful that Especially Guan Yu Yu and even Zhang Fei would defect to Cao Cao and fight desperately for him to attack him.

Thinking of this, Yuan Shao looked at Guo Tu with deep eyes and couldn't help asking: "Guo Tu! How is the matter with Zhang Fei being handled? Is there any good news?"

"Uh... this..."

Guo Tu, hearing this, felt cold sweat break out on his forehead and didn't dare to speak for a moment.

Was he supposed to say that the men sent to surround and kill Zhang Fei had failed?

That he had not only lost a double but also thousands of Yuan Shao's armored soldiers, and hadn't been able to do anything to Zhang Fei?

And that even Zhang Fei's family had disappeared?

If he didn't say it, would Xu You let go of such a good opportunity to kick someone while they were down?

Immediately, Xu You spoke with schadenfreude: "My Lord! I know about this! Guo Tu sent thousands of armored soldiers to surround and suppress Zhang Fei, but not only did they fail, they were defeated by Zhang Fei!"

"Moreover, Zhang Fei and his family have disappeared!"

"This is not good news for you, My Lord!"

"After all, Zhang Fei and his hundreds of personal guards have strength that cannot be underestimated; they are not much worse than Especially Guan Yu Yu!"

"Leaving them in Jizhou is a huge threat to our rear!" ===== CHAPTER 733 =====
