Cao Cao nodded: "According to reports from scouts, Tan Shihuai's army suddenly accelerated its march two days ago. At their speed, they should reach Yuwen's territory in six days at most."

Xi Zhicai asked, "How are the preparations going on the Yuwen tribe's side?"

Cao Cao: "Their remaining 30,000 cavalry have all been assembled and are under the command of Yuwen Qi!"

At this point, Cao Cao turned to Liu Qian beside him and said with a smile, "Yuwen Qi is now your brother-in-law, so you'd better give him some advice!"

"Of course!" Liu Qian replied with a smile.

Xi Zhicai then said, "Alright, let's assign tasks according to the battle plan formulated by the Privy Council!"

Sun Jian, who was standing nearby, spoke up first: "Brother Zhicai, how about I take charge of harassing Tan Shihuai's rear?"

"Wentai, don't be anxious!"

Xi Zhicai smiled and waved his hand: "According to the plan, we should first let the soldiers of the Yuwen tribe and the Tanshihuai tribe have a head-on confrontation, and then feign defeat to lure the enemy deep into our territory."

Therefore, we need a valiant general to stabilize morale and prevent a major rout of the Yuwen troops!

Therefore, it would be more appropriate for Wentai to stay here...

Moreover, having Wentai remain at the front lines allows Tan Shihuai and the soldiers of the Yuwen tribe to witness the might of our Han generals, letting them know that our Han Dynasty has more than just Lü Bu; there is also Sun Wentai!

"Brother Zhicai is right, then I'll stay!"

Upon hearing Xi Zhicai's last words, Sun Jian smiled and nodded in agreement.
