Chapter 1300: There were no cavalry at all
The personal guard came to Cao Cao's side and said to him.
"Cavalry?" Upon hearing the personal guard's words, Cao Cao frowned instantly. His heart was filled with confusion because the soldiers in the city were all infantry; there were no cavalry at all, so how could cavalry appear?
"Quick, send scouts to investigate what is going on." At this time, Cao Cao said to the personal guard.
"Understood!"
A moment later, the personal guard ran back and said to Cao Cao: "Reporting to the General, quite a few cavalry have indeed arrived outside the city. They seem to be coming for Cao Cao, and they appear to be numerous."
"Alright, you may go down." Cao Cao waved his hand and said to the personal guard.
"Understood!"
Soon, the personal guard retreated.
"What on earth is going on?" Cao Cao thought with suspicion.
Just then, Guo Jia arrived at the door of Cao Cao's tent.
"Greetings, Prime Minister!" Guo Jia said, bowing to Cao Cao.
"Fengxiao, you have finally arrived. I have been waiting for you for a long time; please sit down quickly." After seeing Guo Jia, Cao Cao said.
Upon hearing Cao Cao's words, Guo Jia sat down at Cao Cao's lower seat.
"Prime Minister, I do not know why you have summoned me?" Guo Jia asked Cao Cao.
"Fengxiao, we have just received news that quite a few cavalry have appeared outside the city. How do you think we should respond?" Cao Cao asked Guo Jia.
After hearing Cao Cao's words, Guo Jia fell silent. His eyeballs rolled around, and then he thought of something and said to Cao Cao: "Prime Minister, I do have a plan. I do not know if it is feasible?"
"Oh? Fengxiao, I do not know what method you have to resist the enemy's attack?" Cao Cao asked Guo Jia.
"General, please look!" Guo Jia said, taking out the map from his bosom.
"Prime Minister, look, our southwest direction is Zhang Liao's sphere of influence. If we transfer the garrison there away, Zhang Liao will inevitably take the opportunity to occupy that place. At that time, I fear our grain and fodder will also be snatched by them. So I suggest withdrawing all the garrisons from that place,
and then our main force will bypass them from the northeast direction to their rear. At that time, even if Zhang Liao wants to stop us, it will be of no avail." Guo Jia said to Cao Cao.
"Oh? This is indeed a method. Unfortunately, the garrison there is quite large!" Cao Cao exclaimed after looking at the map Guo Jia handed over.
"This is simple. Transfer all those garrisons to the southeast direction, and then station them in the city in the southeast direction. At that time, we can easily solve them." Guo Jia said to Cao Cao with a smile.
"Good idea, good idea. Then I will do as Fengxiao says." Upon hearing this, Cao Cao clapped his hands in praise.
"General is wise, General is wise." Guo Jia said to Cao Cao.
"Someone!" Cao Cao shouted outside the tent.
"This subordinate is here!" Soon, several generals ran in.
"Go and pass the order down quickly: transfer all the garrisons to the southeast direction, and then gather them all in the southeast side. Do not allow anyone to leave that place." Cao Cao said to these generals. ===== CHAPTER 1301 =====
