Chapter 200
Seeing that Guo Tu was targeting Han Meng, Yuan Tan was a little anxious. Now is not the time to fight for credit, after all, the time for declaring war formulated by Yuan Shao has not yet come.

"Mr. Gongze, we are the only ones in the East Route Army this time. Once Cao Cao is attacked by Ye Xiao, he will definitely not be able to go north to support him. Therefore, Qingzhou is already in his pocket. Don't worry, everyone will have credit for it."

Yuan Tan said with a smile, because Yuan Shao promised him that after defeating Cao Cao, he would be the governor of Qingzhou, so he also wanted to win over these generals.

Seeing Yuan Tan talking, Guo Tu nodded with a smile on his face, cupped his hands and said, "Young Master, Donglai, Qingzhou has [-] defenders, Chengyang has [-] soldiers from Cao Hong, and Dongguan County is presided over by Xia Houyuan, isn't it? It's that simple."

Yuan Tan smiled awkwardly. Their [-] troops beat the opponent's [-], and they felt that they had the upper hand no matter how they looked at it.

However, Guo Tu was a close advisor to Yuan Shao and a very trusted advisor, so it was difficult for Yuan Tan to refute him directly.

"What Mr. Gongze said is absolutely true. No matter what, as long as we all work together, people like Cao Jun are nothing to worry about, right?"

Seeing Yuan Tan's respect for him, Guo Tu quietly looked at Xin Ping with a smile.

"Young master, don't worry. Although Cao Jun's combat power is not low, but now we are in the dark, and Cao Jun is in the open. When the time comes, we will take the lead. We will definitely catch Cao Jun by surprise. It is not a big problem to win Qingzhou, as long as everyone obeys the dispatch .”

What Guo Tu means is that it is no problem for the Beihai East Route Army to respect the young master Yuan Tan, but I, Guo Tu, will be a military general. If you don’t hear that Cao Jun resists tenaciously, it is not his responsibility that Qingzhou cannot be taken down.

"Mr. Gongze, my lord has always had high hopes for you. I listen to you."

Yan Liang was known to be brave and foolhardy, and now that Guo Tu was supporting him, he naturally identified the opponent and took the lead in expressing his stance.

"Young Master, I will also obey the instructions of you and sir." Ma Yan was very flattering and immediately followed suit.

Zang Hong and Zhang Nan looked at each other, bowed and followed.

"We will obey the orders of the young master and sir to capture Qingzhou for your lord."

There was only one Deng Sheng left. He watched everyone's eyes fall on him, and answered carefully.

"Young lord, the lord's order, to win Qingzhou, the general will naturally do his best."

Deng Sheng's words made Yuan Tan smile a little embarrassedly, Beihai was obviously his territory, and Yuan Shao couldn't control it, but Deng Sheng still expressed his loyalty to Yuan Shao here, he was indeed an upright person.

"Ahem, General Han, since this is the case, the Eastern Route Army is plotting against Mr. Gongze, everyone listen to my dispatch and defeat Cao Jun together!"

Yuan Tan's eyes glowed hotly, and he couldn't help shouting.

Seeing this, everyone, especially Han Meng, couldn't continue to put forward disagreeing suggestions on this occasion, and they all bowed their hands in salute.

Xudu, Cao Cao's meeting hall.

The cloudy atmosphere gathered in the hall. Cao Cao's counselors and generals gathered here, bowing their heads and not daring to speak.

Cao Cao held several battle reports, his face was as black as ink, and Cao Cao's gray hair on the temples could be seen inadvertently.

Guo Jia leaned back on the chair, seeing Cao Cao's haggard look, his heart ached.

"My lord, don't be impatient, things will always turn around."

Guo Jia's words didn't have any effect, Cao Cao rolled his eyelids, and scattered the battle report in his hand on the ground a little indifferently.

"What a Ye Xiao, what a Yuan Shao! Very good!"

Cao Cao's voice was very hoarse, with boundless anger at the same time.

Cheng Yu knelt down and begged: "My lord, let me go to Xiapi again. Ye Xiao must be aware that the matter in Dongguan County was a misunderstanding, so let me talk about it."

Cao Cao raised his hand slowly and interrupted Cheng Yu.

"Yes, Ye Xiao already said in the letter that even if it was a misunderstanding, it happened on our land, and we must pay compensation no matter what."

"One million dollars or Peicheng County, hehehe, it's really a good appetite. Young people should not be underestimated."

Cheng Yu hesitated upon hearing this. Ye Xiao's price was too high. Cao Cao might be able to squeeze out a million dollars, but this year many of Cao's soldiers will be left with nothing.

As for Peicheng County, it is even more impossible. It is a facade against Ye Xiao in the east. Once Chen County is given up, Qiao County will be directly exposed to Ye Xiaojun.

"My lord, I'm going to fight Lu Bu!" Xu Chu stood up and shouted angrily.

Cao Cao looked at Xu Chu and regained his energy a little.

"Zhongkang, I know you are not afraid of Lu Bu, but as long as we and Lu Bu Chen Bing, don't worry about Yuan Shao's intensive preparations during this period, we will definitely deal a fatal blow to us. Do you think we can withstand the pressure of a two-line battle?"

Xu Chu was overwhelmed by Cao Cao's words, and he knelt down on the ground in shame and said, "Damn him, I can't share my worries."

Guo Jia coughed and asked someone to push him out, his face flushed.

"My lord is right. We all heard that Yuan Shao's frequent actions on the other side of the river. I concluded that when Ye Xiaojun was attacked, he would have something to do with him."

Guo Jia laughed at himself a little, and then continued.

"But forget it, even if we know that Yuan Jun did it, there is nothing we can do. Ye Xiao asks for a million dollars, and we give it to you, my lord. There is no chance of winning against Yuan Shao's hundreds of thousands of troops."

Cao Cao nodded silently. At this juncture, Ye Xiao's threat is obviously very sensitive, and it can be directly used as a fuse for the three parties.

"What Feng Xiao said is very true. It doesn't matter if we pay the money. When Ye Xiao sees that we are beaten up by Yuan Shao, I won't mind making up for it from behind."

Cao Cao nakedly put the unpredictable reality in front of the generals.

"Ahem, my lord, it looks like I'll be the one to do it this time." Guo Jia insisted on standing up, blushing even more.

Cao Cao was shocked when he heard this, and quickly persuaded him, "Feng Xiao, you can arrange Cheng Yu to do it, but how can you go to Xuzhou in person with your body!"

Guo Jia shook his head helplessly, and smiled smugly: "Since the lord thinks it's impossible for me to go like this, then Ye Xiao will definitely understand the lord's sincerity when he sees me."

When Cao Cao heard this, he couldn't help but his eyes turned red. Guo Jia really understood him. However, whether Guo Jia could come back after leaving was uncertain.

"Feng Xiao! For so many years, you have been blessed with me for a few days, but you have suffered from a whole body of illness. I am ashamed of you!"

Cao Cao said with tears in his eyes and a heavy hand on his chest.

Seeing this, many staff members and generals attached themselves one after another, expressing their respect to Guo Jia.

Guo Jia straightened his back tremblingly, coughed a few times, and then said: "My lord, fortunately I have the medicine given by the miracle doctor Hua Tuo this time. I feel much better. After going to Xuzhou as an envoy, my lord must be prepared to deal with Yuan Shao first. "

"I will sort out my thoughts on the road later, and then write it down and hand it over to the lord for reference, so that Jia will die with a clear conscience."

After hearing this, Cao Cao stepped down from the platform in a few steps, took Guo Jia's arm and couldn't help crying. It was the first time for a dignified prime minister to lose his composure like this.
