Three Kingdoms Guo Jia's growth diary

During the period when Cao Cao was not on the expedition, he was not idle.

The last time, it was outside Wancheng City, Nanyang, on the bank of Feishui.Zhang Xiu's Xiliang cavalry left Cao Cao with a very painful memory. His right arm, which was shot by an arrow, still has a scar, and every time it is cloudy and rainy, it will be aching.

The mighty Xiliang iron cavalry made Cao Cao eager to have an elite cavalry unit directly under him.

He ordered that brave men who are good at riding and shooting be selected from the army to form tiger and leopard cavalry, led by Cao Chun.

Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Zhang Xiu, Zhao Yun and other generals generously contributed a group of hundreds of brave generals, who were incorporated into the tiger and leopard cavalry and served as ordinary soldiers.However, these soldiers still enjoy the officer's salary and receive additional rewards.

The tiger and leopard cavalry, which is composed of elites, has formed a strong combat effectiveness after three months of special training.In this campaign against Yuan Shu, everyone is looking forward to the performance of the tiger and leopard cavalry.

It is a good thing for Cao Cao that Yuan Shu proclaims himself emperor.You know, before the big and small princes supported their own self-respect, split the land and divided their regimes, they lived a happy and happy life, allowing the little prince Liu Xie to starve and freeze on the ruins of Luoyang.Until Cao Cao broke the rules of the game by "serving the emperor to ask for disobedience".

In the name of the imperial court, Cao Sikong can fight whoever he wants.

This is too ostentatious, too domineering!

If it wasn't for Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan's fierce fight, and Yuan Shu's struggle with Liu Bei for Xuzhou, and he couldn't get away, everyone would have wanted to gang up on Cao Cao a long time ago.

It's good now, Yuan Shu risked the world's disgrace to proclaim himself emperor, successfully won the attention of all the princes, and shared most of the pressure for Cao Cao.

Cao Cao summoned a group of civil servants and generals to discuss matters in the Sikong Mansion.

One of the official rules: the order of speaking is particular.Whether it is based on qualifications or prestige, Xun Yu has to be the first to speak. After he finishes speaking, others can speak freely.

Xun Yu went out to salute: "Yuan Shuxun called himself the 'Zhong Family', set up officials and officials, and worshiped heaven and earth in the suburbs. You should ask your majesty to issue an edict to call the heroes of the world to fight against the rebels."

Cao Cao was suspicious: "Will someone be ordered to conquer Yuan Shu?"

Xun Yu smiled: "They will obey the edict, but they will not send troops. Yuan Shu proclaimed himself Yangzhou Shepherd and Xuzhou Bo, and had constant conflicts with Xuzhou Governor Liu Bei. Yu had a plan called 'Drive the Tiger and Swallow the Wolf', using the emperor's edict to order Liu Bei sent troops to attack Yuan Shu."

All of you here are resourceful people, so there is no need to speak in too much detail.

Between Yuan Shu and Liu Bei, there was no big battle, and small-scale tentative attacks continued.Earlier, Yuan Shu hijacked Chen Deng's younger brother Chen Ying and captured Guangling County in Xuzhou.The conflict between Yuan Shu and Liu Bei has further escalated.

As long as Xiao Zuo spread the news, saying that Liu Bei secretly asked for help from the court and implored Cao Cao to attack Yuan thief, Yuan Shu would probably believe it.Then send Liu Bei an edict, using Xuzhou Mu's official position as a bait, let him attack Yuan Shu, so that the two families will not be able to fight each other.

Cheng Yu stroked his beautiful beard with his hands: "This plan is feasible, but it doesn't need to be meticulous. Taiwei Yang Biao is Yuan Shu's in-law, and we can ask him to write a secret letter to Yuan Shu, which will make it easier to win Yuan Shu's trust."

Joy: Mr. Zhongde (Cheng Yu), okay, why are you talking about Yang Biao?Don't be burdened by debts, don't bite if you have too many lice, anyway, you have a lot of enemies, and it doesn't matter if you offend Hongnong Yang, the fourth generation and third father?

Guo Jia presented a map and unfolded it slowly, and everyone gathered around to watch it.Just looking at the fineness of the map, one can be sure that it was drawn by Guo Jijiu himself, and Yuan Shu's movements are clear at a glance.

Yuan Shu's sphere of influence has been marked: Yangzhou, half of Sili, Runan County and Pei County in Yuzhou, Guangling County in Xuzhou, and several counties in Xiapi are attached to Yuan Shu.They were all the most affluent areas in the Han Dynasty, but they were looted by Yuan Shu's army, and the people were devastated.

Xun You was puzzled: "Sun Ce is Yuan Shu's subordinate, why does Feng Xiao count him as a separatist regime?"

The folding fan twirled between Guo Jia's fingers: "Sun Ce and Yuan Shu have been in harmony for a long time. As long as the lord wins a game, he will take the initiative to draw a clear line with Yuan Shu and set up his own family in Jiangdong. Maybe he will respond to the Yuan Shuwen, and send An envoy came to Xudu to deliver a petition and ask for an official position on his behalf."

Is it "not sure" again?The gentlemen automatically listened to it: definitely, it must be so.

Next, civil servants and military generals expressed their opinions.This court meeting mainly decided three things.

[-]. Drive away tigers and devour wolves, let Liu Bei and Yuan Shu attack each other.

Second, crusade against Yuan Shu, with Lu Bu and Zhang Xiu as the vanguard.

[-]. No matter who wins between Liu Bei and Yuan Shu, after the war, Liu Bei will be moved to be the shepherd of Yuzhou, and let him follow Cao Cao back to Xudu.

When the discussion was over, everyone dispersed one after another, Cao Cao left Guo Jia alone, pointed at a red ink circle on the map, and asked: "Feng Xiao circled Chen Guo alone, is it possible that Yuan Shu will seek to seize this place next? "

Chen Guo, Yuzhou, was the domain of Chen Wang Liu Chong, the clan clan of the Han Dynasty.Chen Wang and Liu Chong are very brave, and their archery skills are very superb. It is said that ten arrows can hit the same position of the bull's-eye in a row.In addition, Luo Jun, Prime Minister of Chen State, is well-governed, and the people have ample food and clothing. Chen State is a rare place to live and work in troubled times.

Guo Jia: "Yuan Shu doesn't practice farming. He has 20 soldiers under his command. Once the war starts, there must be a huge shortage of military rations. It would be strange if he didn't go to Chen Wang to 'borrow food'."

It is said that it is borrowing food, but in fact, if it is not borrowed, it will be robbed openly.Chen Wang is in danger, and disaster is imminent.

However, what Guo Jia meant was: don't save King Chen, and wait for Yuan Shu to occupy Chen State, then Cao Cao will conquer Yuan Shu himself and take Yuzhou into his pocket.

Cao Cao: This military officer's sacrificial wine is a bit bad, but it's just what I want.

Before leaving, Guo Jia thought of another thing: "It is easy to drive Yuan Shu back to Huainan, but our army is not familiar with the terrain in Huainan after all. If we want to ensure a smooth battle, it is best to bring Ziyang (Liu Ye) with us. He's a local, and he'll come in handy."

Cao Cao nodded: "Then let Zi Yang help Feng Xiao first, and then adjust his position after he has made meritorious service."

Once the news spread that Liu Ye was going to go out with the army and work with Guo Jijiu, all the officials secretly admired Cao Cao. He had already quarreled with His Majesty like that. He dared to let the children of the clan participate in the decision-making of military aircraft. Everyone dares to use it.

The vanguard troops have already set off. Lu Bu and Zhang Xiu's subordinates are mainly cavalry. Their task is of course not to attack the city, but to rely on the good mobility of the cavalry to disrupt Yuan's army. of.

Lu Bu belonged to the Bingzhou Army, and Zhang Xiu belonged to the Xiliang Army. They competed with each other and competed for merit, which caused chaos in Huaibei.

Yuan Shu was furious, and sent seven armies led by Qiao Rui, Li Feng, Liang Gang, Le Jiu and other generals to chase and intercept Lu Bu and Zhang Xiu.But how can infantry catch up with cavalry?

Yuan Shu's army chased all the way from Xuzhou in Huaibei to Yuzhou, but they failed to catch up, and because the battle line was too long, the food transport team was robbed many times.

Guo Jia picked up a pen and marked Yuan Shu's Seventh Route Army on the map.

As soon as his work was completed, the secret work of the informant agency sent back information: Yuan Shu "borrowed food" from Chen Guo, but was rejected by Chen Wang Liu Chong and Chen Guoxiang Luo Jun. Yuan Shu became furious and sent assassins to assassinate Liu Chong and Luo Jun, occupying Chen Guo .

The best time to conquer Yuan Shu has come.
