After Xu Shu said that, I began to regret. Many times along the way, I made my own decisions and rarely asked Xu Shu about his opinions. This should not be true for his companions, let alone Xu Shu is much smarter than me, and I should ask him humbly in response strategies. Thinking of this, I quickly apologized to Xu Shu. Xu Shu waved his hand: "No need, I hope you respect my opinions next time."

"Then...what should I do this time?"

"This time I can only adapt to the situation." Xu Shu seemed helpless.

Zhang Yide's eyes rolled and said, "Brother, we can't go anywhere, so we'll just cheat. He said that there was something wrong with the warship and we need to repair it urgently."

"What if someone is going to do something and send someone to repair it for us?" Xu Shu said angrily.

"This..." Zhang Yide had no choice.

"But... you can use this method too." Xu Shu touched his chin and thought: "Xuande, let's go, and the rest will stay on the warship, guard Dong Zhongying, and be on standby at any time. In this way, if there is any disturbance, we can at least protect the warship."

"But what about us?"

"Cao Mengde is a man who is suspicious. As long as we are separated from the warship, they will be afraid to do anything to us. But if the warship is with us, they will consider taking us in one fell swoop."

I don't agree with Xu Shu's idea very much, but his mind is indeed different from that of ordinary people, so I did as he said.

He and I drove a small aircraft, followed Dian Wei and Xu Chu to Cao's base. Dian Wei's Lu didn't follow him, and asked, "General Liu, why don't you take your warship?"

I said, "There are some minor problems on the battleship, and they are working hard to repair it. Once it is repaired, they will keep up."

Dian Wei and Xu Chu felt that the warship was too bad, but the two of them were not as good as Xu Shu. They just reported to Cao Mengde as it was, and then took us to continue to rush to the base camp.

The Cao army base camp was filled with thick smoke. Li Ru and Li Su led the team to blow up the place like ruins. It is said that cluster bombs and counter-runway bombs were also used to blow all airports in the entire area into hedgehog nests.

Even though Cao's army has experienced many battles, it is very difficult to repair. Cao Mengde transferred all military mechas to act as engineers, and his own car, Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. When we landed at the base, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were dismantling the smoke-producing hangar ceiling with other mechas.

Dian Wei shouted in the communication channel: "General Cao, Liu Xuande is here."

"Oh! Xuande is here!" Cao Mengde's voice seemed a little depressed, "Go and find some wine and food, and prepare to welcome General Liu."

I thought to myself, why are you in such a hurry to have a meal? Your mess here has not been cleaned up yet... Could it be a Hongmen Banquet?

The banquet was directly placed in the ruins. Cao Mengde seemed to be careless. He directly packed up a few boxes of dry food in the battlefield and made a few bottles of beer with dust... This was a welcome dinner...

Xu Shu and I looked at each other, Cao Mengde poured a glass of wine in person and brought it to me.

"Meng De, you are..." I took the wine glass, not knowing whether to drink it or not.

"Xuande, I honestly tell you that I was defeated, this time I was defeated miserably." Cao Mengde looked as usual, but the frustration in that voice could be heard by anyone, "Don't leave today, have a good drink with me."

I said in surprise: "No, you are the strongest among the eighteen princes. Why are you so discouraged?!"

"Look." Cao Mengde pointed to the almost leveled base camp: "Twenty-four airports, seventeen warehouses, countless mechas, aircraft, and the star marrow I have reserved for many years have been destroyed. At present, besides the two warships of Dian Wei and Xu Chu, there are only a few broken transport ships left and can barely fly. Other main battleships... Alas, even the motors and spare parts have been destroyed, and it is difficult to operate!"

Looking at his expression, it didn't look like a lie. I looked at Xu Shu, and Xu Shu winked, meaning not to say anything first, and listen to Cao Mengde's meaning first.

Cao Mengde held the wine glass and said in frustration: "If only one army was destroyed, I could mobilize other troops to make up for it. If all my troops were destroyed, I could mobilize the base camp to continue to produce new troops, but now the base camp has been destroyed, what else can I do?!"

"Meng De, don't say anything discouraging. Even if the equipment is gone, we can still create new ones!"

"To put it simply, we even snatched the factory drawings, so where can we have the ability to make new equipment!"

I looked at the remaining warships of Cao Mengde. Suddenly, one of them attracted my attention. This ship looked so familiar...

I asked Cao Mengde: "A transport ship over there is a 'double-stringed sword' I borrowed from you before?"

Cao Mengde looked back and said, "Yes. Do you call it a 'double-stringed sword'? It's just a second-hand broken transport ship, and I can't even line up here."

I told Cao Mengde: "When the Eighteen Routes of Princes met, you lent me this ship, but there was no military preparation on the ship. I took down the weapons from Gongsun's light cavalry mecha and put them on it for emergency response."

"So that's the case, the firepower is actually limited. If you meet Li Ru and Li Su's main battleship, you have to finish playing."

Xu Shu interrupted, "Don't have to fight Li Ru, Li Su and the others head-on. After they beat you, they still didn't find Dong Zhongying, right? Then they should deal with others next - the next target is likely to be the Yuan Benchu ​​brothers. But the Yuan Benchu ​​brothers are very strong now, with a lot of soldiers and food, so they may not be able to take it. You don't have to rush to do it. Just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. Just wait for the two sides to fight, you will break in from the rear and attack Li Ru and Li Su on both sides."

"Oh! This is a good idea." Cao Mengde slapped his thigh: "If it is a surprise attack, there is no need for too strong artillery fire. Just scare people. The key is to be fast."

"And what you happen to be left with a relatively high degree of transport ships, which is simply the opportunity left by God. You just need to converge the remaining weapons everywhere and install them on the transport ship to respond to emergency response. Then you just need to quietly follow Li Ru and Li Su's troops! After they fight, you only rob their logistics supplies and transport fleets. If you are lucky, not only will the losses be compensated for this time, but you may also be able to make up for a big profit!"

"Okay!" Cao Mengde slapped the table and stood up: "Let's go! Let's pick up the warships now!"
