Chapter 363: Cao and Liu

Cao Cao adjusted his mood, ready to face the upcoming battle, as he had already received news that Cao Bao was leading thirty thousand elite troops from Danyang, marching grandly in his direction.

In the following two days, the Cao Army continuously carried out relief efforts. Just as Xun You had estimated, the dead could not testify against the Cao Army's actions. After the real Cao Army had consecutively slain groups of rioters waving the Cao Army's flag, many people in Xuzhou truly believed that it was not the Cao Army conducting the slaughter but someone else tarnishing the Cao Army's name.

"Hahaha, the situation is turning for the better again. All that's left is to find the perpetrator!" Cao Cao, looking at the intelligence reports from various places, felt his previously gloomy mood improve significantly. He did not wish to lose the people's trust.
