If you don't wear women's clothes, the big man will die!

Guo Jia was strangely silent for a moment, and the corners of his mouth curled into a subtle arc. Seeing that Cao Cao looked at him seriously, he pressed down the corners of his mouth, and answered Cao Cao with a serious expression: "In my opinion, if my lord Fighting with Yuan Shao, you must be the one who wins."

Cao Cao's eyes lit up, and the little fish took the bait smoothly. He asked with great interest, "Oh? What do you mean by Feng Xiao's words?"

In his opinion, Guo Jia has always spoken with reason, never without reason, and even predicts things like a god, and what he said can come to fruition soon, which is very miraculous!

Guo Jia carefully analyzed his advantages compared with Yuan Shao for Cao Cao, and summed up Cao Cao's ten victories and Yuan Shao's ten defeats.

"Your lord, do you envy Yuan Shao for having the help of many powerful families with profound backgrounds, many talented subordinates, and a ready-made literati system? This is actually the disadvantage for him. The power developed by the family will be restricted in the future." Family."

"I wouldn't be restricted by them at first," Cao Cao shook his head, "I know his abilities, but with his pride, how could he allow himself to be restrained by those people?"

"But have you forgotten, my lord? Yuan Shao himself is also from a great family!" Guo Jia talked freely: "There are many etiquette rules, and the family with many factions has formed his huge number of civil servants and military officials. Big families often pay attention to the superficial, red tape, and these invisible restraints, Yuan Shao is inferior to the lord, do you think that the person you are in charge can be evaluated by looking at his family and tracing the character and status of the three generations of ancestors?"

Cao Cao shook his head. He only looks at individuals when he employs people, what kind of family is he looking at?Father and grandfather are powerful, so is that person powerful?If this is the case, there will be no dudes in the world.

Guo Jia's brows and eyes were stained with a smile: "When I arrived in Jizhou, I saw Xu Wenren serving Yuan Shao because of his reputation. Because they didn't have a prominent family, their father and grandfather never served as officials in the court, and Yuan Shao didn't even When he came to see them, if other counselors recommended him, he would conveniently give him an official position as a writer, allowing many capable people to do what ordinary officials would do. If someone came up with a good idea, some rewards and rewards would pass , it doesn't matter, don't be a counselor beside Yuan Shao. And how did my lord treat them?"

Cao Cao has always been appointed by ability, not by reputation. He was thoughtful and felt that what Guo Jia said was right. After thinking about it, he suddenly felt a sense of crisis: "Could it be that you were treated like this at the beginning, so that you Did you leave Jizhou because of the cold heart?"

Yuan Shao didn't take Guo Jia seriously, but Cao Cao regarded Guo Jia as a treasure!

Guo Jia was taken aback, feeling bad.

If the answer is not good, will it give the protagonist the illusion of "someone else" or "the red apricot is cheating"?If the lord is worried about this, wouldn't he be shooting himself in the foot?

Guo Jia quickly explained: "My lord also knows that when I was young, I liked to travel and study everywhere. From Yingchuan to Luoyang, from Luoyang to Jizhou, I traveled all over the place and gained a lot of knowledge. It was only after I parted ways with you in Luoyang that I went to Jizhou. I went, I heard that Yuan Shao became the Lord of Jizhou, I went to see what kind of person he is, and I think he is not good."

Cao Cao was elated by Guo Jia's words, and he asked with a smile, "What's wrong with this at first?"

"Measurement is not enough," Guo Jia breathed a sigh of relief when the crisis was resolved, and he continued: "Yuan Shao looks generous on the outside, but in fact he is far away from people thousands of miles away. He just looks like a virtuous corporal. His arrogance and suspicion have already been manifested in his actions, appointing relatives and children to replace capable officials, trusting people with good relationships and not giving others opportunities..."

In comparison, Cao Cao's "fraternity" made Guo Jia feel complicated. Seeing the lord getting close to one newcomer after another, stepping on the old one when there is a newcomer, and doting on the newcomer when the newcomer becomes the old one, Repeatedly, every time a new site is completed, a new batch of newcomers are included...

With more and more newcomers, the group of counselors who followed the lord at the beginning also felt a sense of crisis, and each of them was looking for their own position and becoming an indispensable and outstanding person, so as not to be misunderstood by the lord. Forgotten, he could almost foresee how he would laugh when the lord defeated Yuan Shao and gained more people.Imagine this, and Guo Jia couldn't help but smile again: It's okay, the more people there are, the more the master's heart will be distributed to the whole world, only the most specific people can shine, and then it will only depend on each person's means.

Guo Jia never doubted that Cao Cao would lose to Yuan Shao. He analyzed that Cao Cao's ten victories and ten defeats were flattering, and more of them had something to say, and he firmly believed in this.

Cao Cao will not believe in simple and superficial flattery, he is pragmatic!

Cao Cao nodded again and again, nostalgic for the past, and told Guo Jia about the person who influenced him the most, his grandfather Cao Teng.When Cao Teng reached the position of under one person and over ten thousand people, he was still open-minded and broad-minded. That kind of state of mind had a great influence on Cao Man when he was a child.

Guo Jia pointed out the key points from the reality.

When governing the world, Yuan Shao indulged those who were related, while Cao Cao governed according to the law, with kindness and virtue.What Yuan Shao likes to accept flattery, does not accept bad advice, and does not listen to the opposition of counselors, but Cao Cao can always accept and correct his mistakes humbly.Why is Yuan Shao indecisive? Yuan Shao is easily bewitched by many literati from different factions under him, unlike Cao Cao who has his own judgment.

Cao Cao imagined that counselors from various factions and clans of his subordinates used rhetoric to confuse people's hearts, and imagined that various groups of Runan literati, Yingchuan literati, and Sili literati gave out gifts for different purposes because of their respective interests. Yuan Shao suggested, and immediately felt that it was not easy for Yuan Shao.This can't be blamed on his indecision. Cao Cao imagined that if each of the six counselors under him gave different ideas and quarreled with each other, and each of them was justified, he wouldn't know who to trust. , so he will close his eyes and refuse to listen to others' persuasion, and only make his own judgment. If the judgment is wrong, he is "self-willed".

Thinking of this, Cao Cao, who was facing Yuan Shao as an enemy before and had no confidence in himself, regained his confidence.

He was very grateful: Thanks to my counselors who are safe, well-behaved, and sensible!

Guo Jia said again: "Besides, Yuan Shao is not good at using troops. His study of the art of war is relatively rough, and he can't use the terrain more flexibly to use tactics to defeat the enemy. He has been in Jizhou for many years, and most of them are dispatched soldiers. When going to battle, I seldom come to the front of the battle in person, and even the strategy is provided by the counselors under my command. In comparison, the lord has fought for many years, and he himself is a general who uses soldiers like a god, even more powerful than Yuan Shao."

Cao Cao sat up straight when he heard the words, and proudly said: "Of course, I have loved studying military art since I was young, and I have personally commanded and fought so many battles. As for the beginning, he and I are both students of Duanzi, so even if he can't use soldiers Worse than others, but far worse than me. Back then, when Duanzi gave us practical lessons on tactics and strategies, he always listened to me."

Cao Cao talked about the time when he was studying in the past, and said with nostalgia: "When I was young, I asked him to borrow homework to copy. Who would have thought that when we grow up, we will become enemies?"

Cao Cao and the two brothers of the Yuan family used to wear a pair of trousers. Guo Jia knew about this, so he just smiled and said nothing.If the two brothers of the Yuan family did not fight with the lord, but always supported the lord, wouldn't it become the deep friendship between Guan Yu and Zhang Fei for Liu Bei?What's the matter with anyone else?

"My lord, Yuan Shao is your enemy now, you can't treat him softly because of the friendship in the past," Guo Jia persuaded: "If Yuan Shao loses, you might spare his family in consideration of friendship. If you lose, he will Yuan Shao is cold-hearted and capricious, if not for this, he would not have made friends with Gongsun Zan first, and then forced Gongsun Zan to death."

When Yuan Shao first took Jizhou, his focus was to appease the civil strife and attack Bingzhou. He needed Gongsun Zan to join forces with him in Youzhou, so he became friends with him for a while. After he took Bingzhou, he changed hands and fought with Gongsun Zan.

Cao Cao replied: "Don't worry Feng Xiao, the battle between my old enemy and Yuan Shao is inevitable, and there will be this battle eventually, I will use my strength to subdue him!"

As he spoke, he regained his confidence, thanked Guo Jia for his explanation, and discussed with him the solution to the existing troubles.

War requires not only soldiers and generals, but also continuous supply from the rear. Grain, salt, thatch, weapons, and horses are all material. In addition, there are soft powers, such as fame, morale, and , a top strategist who can influence the entire battle situation by one person planning the world and strategizing.

"Yuan Shao has many advisers, and his generals are as numerous as stars. He gathers millions of troops, and he will definitely attack me from different directions." Liberals led to the fusion of their power positions and borders. Cao Cao can divide several counties that may be captured, and the same is true for the routes.

To deal with Yuan Shao's armies, he needed to divide up his generals, and also arranged for his advisers to sit separately, defend in different directions, and look for opportunities to attack Yuan Shao.

Guo Jia is good at strategy, so Cao Cao doesn't talk much about internal affairs, and only discusses with him the routes that may be attacked. As early as a few years ago, Cao Cao had already demonstrated to Guo Jia his unique skill of drawing drawings by hand, and now he can do it easily , the location drawings drawn with paper and pen are exquisitely clear at a glance.

Having traveled to so many places over the years, Cao Cao knows the topography of each place very well. As the lord of the four states, he knows what kind of terrain is under his rule.

Guo Jia secretly said: If we talk about the talents of the past and the present, and the talents of the sky, the lord is the real literary man who can secure the world with his pen, and the hero who can fight the world immediately with martial arts. He is unparalleled in style, and no one can compare to our lord!

Guo Jia: "If the master puts all his thoughts on defense, he will easily fall into a passive situation."

"My soldiers and horses are not as large as before, and now I don't know how many cards he has hidden, let alone how much he has accumulated over the years of occupying the north." It is precisely because everything is unknown that Cao Cao wants to be conservative. Some style of play.

Guo Jia agreed: "If you are too aggressive, you will easily make mistakes."

But being too timid and easy to be timid before fighting is bad for morale. In marching and fighting, morale, a mysterious thing, will affect the whole battle situation.

Guo Jia suggested: "My lord, you might as well try to fight."

Since the strength of the two is equal, Cao Cao has not prepared for a winning streak. When he fights with Yuan Shao's two tigers, he will suffer losses and capture some places. What he has to do now is before Yuan Shao's attack comes. Make preparations before the battle, and then wait for Yuan Shao to attack.

From Yecheng of Jizhou to Xuchang, such a long distance, southward attack still needs to cross the Yellow River. Under such circumstances, whoever attacks first will consume first, and will expose himself first. Take it easy.

The two chatted in the commander's tent until late at night. If Cao Ang hadn't come to look for Cao Cao, Guo Jia might have been invited to stay.

That night, Cao Cao and Cao Ang and his son slept together again. Cao Ang closed his eyes and was about to rest when he suddenly heard Cao Cao say: "Aang has grown up, it's time to get married."

Cao Ang opened his eyes abruptly: "Huh?"

Cao Cao looked at the ceiling and muttered, "I used to call you Aang and didn't think so. These days, I always hear Zhao Yun's accent calling you Aang. I always think it's weird, like a donkey barking."

Cao Ang: "..."

"So it's better to choose a catchy and meaningful word for Aang," Cao Cao affirmed his thoughts, and soon thought about the meaning of the word. A bunch of words can be pulled out casually, and it is rare to be catchy without being vulgar.

When he mentioned taking words, Cao Cao thought of getting married again. When he mentioned getting married, Cao Ang blushed and said embarrassedly: "Father, it's too early to get married, isn't it? Master hasn't gotten married yet, so I'm not in a hurry."

Mentioning that Zhao Yun was not yet married, Cao Cao recalled what Guo Jia had said when Zhao Yun came to join the job, and his thoughts drifted away.

"So, how many generals in our army don't have a wife yet!" It's not easy to find a wife these days.

Cao Ang couldn't keep up with Cao Cao's Ma Xingkong's thoughts that day, so he pretended to be asleep. He was afraid that the more he talked, the more Cao Cao would be able to babble.

Guo Jia has a great affection for Cao Cao's eldest son, mainly because Cao Ang and Cao Cao's father and son have [-]% similarity in facial features. After observation, he found that he is polite and magnanimous, has a calm temper, and is also proficient in martial arts. Having been stained with blood, he has the vigor of a man, and he learned from Cao Cao's general Xiahou Dun.With such a wealth of experience, it is no problem to be the heir, but their master is in the prime of life, and the matter of heirs is not in a hurry for the time being.

Guo Jia: I don't know how the eldest son will perform in government affairs. The master's successors are what the counselors like to see.

However, he said that the army stayed in Taishan for a month and handed over to Qingzhou. Considering that Qingzhou was close to Jizhou and Youzhou, Cao Cao ordered Xiahou Dun to lead the army back with Liu Bei to station troops in the north of Qingzhou.

Regardless of what Qingzhou shepherd Liu Bei thinks, Cao Cao, who regarded Qingzhou as his own governance, did not shy away from Liu Bei at all, and even brought a counselor Xun You along with Xiahou Dun.

Guo Jia hesitated to speak several times, and persuaded Cao Cao: "Liu Bei is not a person who is content with others. My lord trusts him so far. If you give him a state, I am afraid that you will raise tigers."

Cao Cao was taken aback. Guo Jia had given him the impression that he was too predictable in the past, so that he subconsciously felt that what he said would come true.

"After I gave the Qingzhou stall to Liu Bei, he worked hard and kept his own place. Without my promotion, he was just a small official who once served as a county magistrate. I have the kindness to know him, so how could he betray me? What about Liu Bei's most important thing is righteousness, he will not do things that betray righteousness."

Cao Cao also has his reasons. He has his own vision and judgment for knowing people.

Guo Jia thought for a while, and was persuaded by Cao Cao: "My lord is polite, but I didn't think about it."

Since Liu Bei has given himself a label of benevolence and loyalty, if he takes it off, the first to turn his back on him are those who followed him because of the personality charm he established, how could he do anything to break his impression of benevolence and loyalty? What about?As long as the lord doesn't give him a chance to betray him, Liu Bei will have to work diligently for their lord all his life.

Cao Cao said, "It's better for him to stay in Qingzhou than I send someone else to take over."

The army returned triumphantly along the road built in Yanzhou. Several counties in Yanzhou have grown their population in the ten years of stability. There are many children in the villages along the way. There are men farming in the fields and women washing clothes by the river. When walking through the passage, you can see nearby villagers gathering spontaneously. In this place where Cao Cao's logo is engraved on every inch of land, the people cheered and jumped to welcome the return of the army.

Zhao Yun relied on his master-student relationship with Cao Ang to get preferential treatment. He had no military exploits, and he did not bring anyone back to Cao Cao. Naturally, he had no official position. It is very easy to hold an important position in Cao Ying. Civilian positions need to show their abilities. To be a general in the army, you must show your strength and achievements.

Zhao Yun is of course capable. After coming to the army for a while, relying on a test of skills, he has already convinced the soldiers of the army led by Cao Ang. These men in the army are not so reserved. If you have a fight, eat meat and drink wine together, you are good brothers. A man makes friends, is open and aboveboard, regardless of his background. In the army, where the strong are respected, of course the powerful can be treated differently by others.

Cao Ang also quietly told Zhao Yun: "Mr. is short of military exploits before becoming a general. Here, as long as there are capable people, they can make a difference." I can be a general.

"You were not there when we attacked Xuzhou, and there are still many opportunities to fight Yuan Shao! With your ability, sir, you will definitely be the leader of an army."

Zhao Yun smiled and rubbed his head: "Don't think about it so complicated, kid, I followed the agreement to find Cao Gong, and I came to serve him."

Zhao Yun saw the army walking on the way home, and the villagers saw the army with the Cao character flag printed on it, but no one avoided it. There were even children worshiping and the villagers bowing down. People love things.

After returning to the back garden of his home, Cao Cao ordered all the troops to station troops in different places, waited for instructions, and led an army back to Xuchang by himself.

The emperor led all the officials out of the city to welcome the victorious Cao Cao in person, and the common people lined the road to welcome Cao Cao. Cao Cao's scenery was the same for a while, and soon after his return, he once again devoted himself to the construction of the court.

The generals take turns to rest, and so do all the officials. Only Cao Cao, like a spinning top, is born to work hard after he finishes his work. When he returned to Xuchang, he had no sense of existence before. Xun Yu became his closest friend, and the two worked hand in hand to govern the government, often discussing policies late into the night.

Xun Yu persuaded Cao Cao to take a proper rest, and Cao Cao replied energetically, "Wait to rest after the Chinese New Year. With my temper, my whole body is not right when I stop. Instead of resting at home and cultivating, why not come here and do more things!"

Seeing this, Xun Yu stopped persuading Cao Cao and just reminded Cao Cao to spend more time with his family.

Speaking of family, Cao Cao became interested. He put down the pen in his hand, and suddenly said: "My Aang has grown up, it's time to get married! I don't know which girl can be my Cao's eldest daughter-in-law?"

Xun Yu's always clever mind was stuck for a while, and he recalled this aspect in his mind, but found it was empty!

How can this be!How could he, who is omniscient and omnipotent, fail to answer the Lord's doubts?

"Wen Ruo can recommend someone?" Cao Cao himself opposed feudal arranged marriages, but was very keen on finding a wife for Cao Ang. After all, the feeling of being a son and being a father are different.

It's a pity that he and Xun Yu spent most of their energy on their careers. How can they know the reputation among the women in the back house?How could Xun Yu know about the things that were passed down from word to mouth among the women?

He thought for a while, and in desperation reported a series of names to Cao Cao. He heard that someone had a daughter, about their age, and the information was simple, which was enough for Cao Cao to make up his mind.

Xun Yu said again: "However, I heard that the daughter of Lu Bu's family is very beautiful, and she is a famous beauty in Yanzhou."

Speaking of why the daughter of Lu Bu's family became famous, I also mentioned the two carts of beauties that Jia Xu encouraged Guo Si and Li Jue to send. Those beauties used all kinds of tricks to separate Lu Bu and Cao Cao, but Cao Cao didn't see her. Therefore, they could only start from Lu Bu.

And Lu Bu has been fighting outside all year round, so if you want to separate them, if you dare not harm Cao Cao's family, you can only harm Lu Bu's family.

Lu Bu's wife lived in seclusion and seldom went out. They couldn't find a chance, so they could only start from other places, and they went around and went around to Lu Bu's daughter.What should I do if my daughter is raised in a deep boudoir and does not go out?Then rely on reputation!

This beautiful woman has a great reputation, and she came to inquire about the situation every day, and the matchmakers who came to the door instantly crowded into the gate of the general's mansion, and all of them were intercepted by the guards and refused to go out.

Where did the rumor come from? No one went to find out. Lu Bu's wife and daughter stayed at home and guarded by guards. Ordinary people dare not approach.

Fortunately, Lu Bu is back!The status of the generals who followed Cao Cao's triumphant return is different.As soon as he came back, the general's mansion had a pillar in an instant, and those who wanted to reach out to the Lu family no longer dared to act rashly.There was an unlucky matchmaker who was bumped into by Lu Bu, and she was directly thrown outside on the street. I heard that her butt fell to the ground, and she struggled for a long time without getting up.

Cao Cao didn't take it seriously when he heard Xun Yu mention it. He laughed and said, "Lü Bu's daughter is only so old and beautiful. What kind of beauty can a little girl be? She needs to be more mature, with big breasts and thin waist. Beauty style!"

Xun Yu didn't want to talk, and threw a stack of brick-thick official documents to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao was not annoyed, he took the official document with a smile, and began to review it by himself.

Because Guo Jia Muxiu is at home, he likes to think about things when he has nothing to do. While drinking, he misses the time when his friend Xi Zhicai was still there. Feeling sad, he plans to go to Cao's house to visit Xi Zhicai's son— — Xi Kang.

Thinking of Cao Cao mentioning that he could come to visit Xi Kang at any time, Guo Jia went to Cao's house by himself, and he specially asked the guards to inform Cao Cao.

As soon as Cao Cao's gesture of holding the pen stopped, the ink dripped on the case without knowing it.

Seeing his strange expression, Xun Yu expressed doubts: "My lord?"

Cao Cao snapped down his pen, got up quickly and said, "Kang'er is weak, I'm afraid Feng Xiao will tease her too much, I'll go back and have a look, if I deal with the rest of the official documents first, I'll come back tomorrow!"

After finishing speaking, he left in a hurry, the speed at which he ran away seemed to burn his butt.

Holding the document, Xun Yu was even more puzzled: "Although Feng Xiao is a bit out of touch, he is not such a ignorant person. The master's reaction is too big, right?"

On the other side, Guo Jia has already played.

"In just a few months, the little guy is already able to walk with his arms on his back." Guo Jia happily sat on the ground covered with silk cloth, and played with a rattle happily: "Kang'er, look here, look here!"

The rattle drum sounded loudly.

Xi Zhicai: "..."
