Rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 210 This son must be tied

Liu Rui screamed in fright, but Guo Jia looked calm and reached out to grab the book.

He stepped forward to signal Liu Rui not to be nervous, bowed and said, "The rebellion I'm talking about is not about making General Liu do unrighteous things, but the rebellion in the frontier fortress. Once the Hu people in the frontier fortress break up, only general Liu Only by sitting in Youzhou can the border be stabilized."

"Huh——" Lu Zhi blew his beard and let out a long breath, and stared: "You young man, you should speak more completely, can't you be sincere and angry?"

Guo Jia knew that Lu Zhi was upright, but he wasn't angry, so he smiled helplessly: "This junior is reckless."

Lu Zhi pointed to the sofa, nodded and said, "Please sit down."

In fact, there is no need for Guo Jia to go into details, Lu Zhi already understood his intentions. They have always only used scheming, and they never thought of these strange strategies, but as long as they do a little, they will immediately understand.

Guo Jia sat down, Liu Rui accompanied him, and then secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and kicked Guo Jia quietly, signaling him to speak carefully.

Lu Zhi asked earnestly: "Just now you said you wanted to save Boxing. He is far away in the Central Plains, and Zhengxing's righteous soldiers are attacking Dong Zhuo. How do you know that he is in trouble?"

Guo Jia said: "The difficulty of the little general is not to win Dong, but to be among the princes."

Lu Zhi was puzzled, "What's the meaning of this?"

Guo Jia said: "This time all the princes are going to Luoyang. If they fight on their own and the order is not good, it will be like a group of dragons without a leader, and they will be like scattered sand. They will definitely elect a lord and form an alliance to fight against Dong. What do you think, sir, who can take on this important task? "

"A soldier cannot move without a general, and a snake cannot move without a head. This statement makes sense!" Lu Zhi nodded slightly, and after thinking for a while, he said: "The leader of the alliance must be able to convince the people, and he must also command the heroes to treat them fairly. In my opinion, In short, there are three candidates."

Guo Jia nodded and said, "I would like to hear a good opinion."

Lu Zhi replied: "Boxing was the first to advocate volunteer soldiers, and he is also a member of the Han family. The third is that Cao Cao, when I was in Luoyang, I met this man, he knows strategy, has great ambitions, and he can be the leader of the alliance."

"Mister's opinion, this junior deeply agrees!" Guo Jia nodded, but then said: "However, Cao Mengde's background is not right, and he was often under Yuan Shao in the capital, so he cannot be the leader of the alliance. The real candidate is between the little general and Yuan Benchu. between."

Lu Zhi caressed his beard and said: "It makes sense, both of them can be the leader of the alliance, even if Boxing surrenders to Yuan Shao, it doesn't matter, why is there any danger?"

"Sir, what you said is wrong!" Guo Jia shook his head and said, "Although Yuan Benchu ​​came from a famous family, he is indecisive in every situation, arrogant and jealous. I'm afraid that even if the little general undoubtedly fights for the position of the leader of the alliance, Yuan Shao will obstruct him and suppress him. Little General."

"This..." Lu Zhi frowned, grabbed his beard and said, "If Yuan Shao speaks well and is reasonable, Boxing will definitely give in to him. If he wants to enrich himself, with Boxing's temperament, it may backfire."

Guo Jia nodded and said: "The princes from all walks of life are more than out of the Yuan family, and they will definitely help Yuan Shao secretly, so as to isolate the little general. If the leader of the alliance is not established, the alliance already has a suspicion. The little general is far away in the Central Plains. He is at a great disadvantage."

Liu Rui seemed to understand, and hurriedly said: "Since they don't help elder brother, write to elder brother quickly and ask him to come back earlier."

Lu Zhi shook his head and asked Guo Jiadao: "In your opinion, what are the chances of the princes winning against Dong this time?"

"I'm afraid it won't even reach [-] percent!" Guo Jia shook his head, and said with a wry smile, "The feudal lords raised troops for profit, just like in the Warring States Period when the feudal lords of the Six Kingdoms formed an alliance to attack Qin. The feudal lords will surely take advantage of power, and for a long time, they will be chaotic and even attack each other."

Lu Zhi sighed deeply. In fact, he was not optimistic about the alliance's bid for Dong. After a while, he said: "If the princes attack each other, it will be a good thing for Boxing. You can take advantage of the chaos and return."

Guo Jia said: "This is exactly what I am worried about. Since Han Fu became the shepherd of Youzhou, he has sent people to negotiate with Zhongshan many times but failed. He must hold a grudge. He is also a student of the Yuan family and he will deal with the young man together with Yuan Shao. General, the way back to Jizhou has actually been cut off."

"Hiss——" Lu Zhi was taken aback, and realized that Liu He could no longer return to Youzhou from Jizhou, so he hurriedly asked, "Can you transfer back from Bingzhou?"

Guo Jia still shook his head and said: "There are many mountainous roads in Bingzhou, and the march is difficult. There are hundreds of thousands of Black Mountain troops in Taihang Mountain. Its leader, Zhang Niujiao, was beheaded by the little general. The Black Mountain Army is determined to take revenge. If Yuan Shao secretly sends people to fund them with gold, pearls, food and grass, they will return on the same journey. It's long and dangerous."

"Could this be a dead end?" Lu Zhi's face changed drastically, he frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly remembered what Guo Jia said when he entered the door, and asked quickly: "You said you can save Boxing, what countermeasures do you have?"

Guo Jia said: "The countermeasure should be on Liu Shijun. At present, the imperial court entrusts the envoy as the Taifu, and Liu Zhengli is replaced by Youzhou Shepherd. The current plan is to let Liu Zhengli be changed to Bingzhou Shepherd and go to Jinyang to meet him. The little general is back."

"Well—this is a way to break the situation," Lu Zhi thought for a long time, then frowned, "It's just that the imperial edict has arrived, and it may be difficult to change it, and it will be too late to submit an edict, so what should I do? "

"In an emergency, we should use extraordinary means," Guo Jia said very decisively this time, "First, see if there may be changes in the imperial edict, and directly change Liu Yao as Bingzhou Shepherd; Now Bingzhou is disturbed by the Xiongnu, and Dong Zhuo, the shepherd of the state, has come to Beijing again, and there is no one to manage the affairs of the state, so you can order Liu Yao to lead the troops directly to Jinyang to suppress the rebellion, and the people of Bingzhou are suffering from the intrusion of the barbarians, so they will welcome them happily."

"Change the imperial edict, this..." Lu Zhi still hesitated, this is a big treason.

Guo Jia sneered and said, "This edict must have been issued by Dong Zhuo pretending to be the Son of Heaven. It is basically an act of deceiving the emperor. It is also in the name of the Son of Heaven!"

"Huh? Your reasoning seems to be somewhat..." Lu Zhi looked at Guo Jia again, his gaze was quite different from before.

This young man has a calm demeanor, he knows all the major events in the world, even human nature is nuanced, and his planning and judgment are clear and reasonable.
Guo Jia clasped his fists and said: "I am grateful to Miss for saving me, and I am safe from illness. I have nothing to repay, so I am taking the risk to offer advice. If there is any inappropriate offense, please forgive me, sir."

Lu Zhi shook his head and asked, "Where are you from?"

Guo Jia sighed, "I'm from the Guo family in Yingchuan, but it's just a side branch, and it's gone down."

"Zhi Gao doesn't come from a high or low background," Lu Zhi observed Guo Jia, and suddenly said with a smile: "It seems that the old man is going to visit Jicheng in person... Come, for the sake of Youzhou and the Han family, this old man will offer you a toast!"

Guo Jia got up quickly: "How dare I respect you as an old gentleman?"

Liu Rui also stood up and stopped Lu Zhi, and said with wide eyes, "Uncle Lu, he is my patient now, he is still undergoing acupuncture, and he cannot drink alcohol for half a year."

"It's such a big deal, it's hard to calm down without drinking!" Lu Zhi ignored her, poured two glasses of wine, handed it to Guo Jia, and said with a big smile, "Taste the wine made by Boxing himself. It’s specially reserved for the old man before leaving.”

Regardless of Liu Rui pinching his arm, Guo Jia took both hands and drank it slowly, his eyes suddenly became bright, and he smacked his lips and said, "Even for this drink, I will do my best to save the little one." General."

"Hahaha, have fun!" Lu Zhi nodded and said, "After you recover from illness, I will get drunk with you."

"Uncle Lu, it's up to you to save elder brother, so let's go first!" Knowing that Lu Zhi is not only good at drinking, but also likes to drink, Liu Rui hurriedly dragged Guo Jia, who was about to drool, out.

"What a resourceful young man!" After the two of them left, Lu Zhi stood in a daze holding his wine glass for a while, and then said with emotion: "This son's future is limitless, and he must be kept for Boxing... No, hold on!"
