Three Kingdoms, Sheng Chong Shang Shulang

Cao Cao pondered for several days, but he couldn't decide how to bait Yuan Shao so that he could be tricked into crossing the river.

At this time, Yu Jin sent back a good news-going west along the river, he broke through Yuan Jun's barracks, wiped out thousands of enemies, and captured more than [-] generals and schools.

Cao Cao slapped the table and said, "Okay! Send an order to Yu Jin, telling them to come to Yanjin to join the army."

"promise!"

"Liu Yan, Baima County is your hometown, so I will send you to guard it."

"Ah?" Liu Yan was startled, subconsciously exhaled.

"Oh, what, I know you have never fought a war, I just ask you, do you dare to call on the people to defend the city with you?"

"Your subordinate dare! My lord is kind to my subordinates. It is my luck to have my subordinates stationed in danger. Fortunately, my lord trusts me. This subordinate will issue a military order here. The city is alive and the city is dead."

"Okay! I will send you two thousand soldiers, and you must defend Baima County."

"promise!"

As soon as this remark came out, the generals murmured in their hearts again, asking a literati to guard the city, and only giving him two thousand soldiers, wouldn't he be sent to die?

"Zhang Liao, Xu Huang."

"The end is here!"

"The two of you led your troops to Guandu, set up camp, built earth fortresses, and prepared for the army to station."

"promise!"

The generals were in an uproar again, Guandu is far away from the river, why build a camp there?

Cao Cao ignored them, "Okay, the rest of the people are going to repair the ordnance ships, don't be idle, let's break up the accounts."

"promise!"

Everyone withdrew from the tent, leaving Xun You still standing in the tent.

"What do the military advisers think?" Cao Cao couldn't help asking Xun You.

Before Xun You had time to answer, he heard shouts outside the tent: "Your Majesty is a good planner!"

"Bong Xiao!" Cao Cao and Xun You were overjoyed. Originally, Guo Jia had calculated that it would take three or four days to arrive, but he never thought that his footsteps would be so fast.

"I have seen my lord."

"Hurry up and get rid of the etiquette, why should you and I stick to common etiquette, and there are no outsiders here."

Cao Cao stepped forward to help Guo Jia up, and Guo Jia and Xun You greeted each other.

"I haven't seen you for a few days. My lord has a wonderful plan, and my subordinates are far behind." Guo Jia said sincerely.

"Oh? Why do you know that?" In the past, Guo Jia advised Cao Cao, but Cao Cao couldn't help but be delighted to receive such praise from him.

"Yu Jin won the victory and defended Yanjin, which was regarded as aggression, and Liu Yanshi, who defended the white horse weakly, was regarded as a temptation. One strong and one weak led Yuan Shao to Guandu, so Guandu is the place of decisive battle."

"Feng Xiao really understands me."

"Thank you, my lord, Miao Zan."

Cao Cao turned around and asked Xun You, "What does Gongda think?"

"Now that Yuan Shu has died suddenly and Sun Ce is under restraint, there are two less worries for the future, but there is still one serious worry..."

Cao Cao's eyes narrowed, "Zhang Xiu."

"Now that Zhang Xiu sees that Liu Biao is on good terms with us, he just sits on the sidelines. If Zhang Xiu falls on Yuan Shao when we are fighting Yuan Shao, we will be attacked."

Obviously, it is not realistic to send troops to attack Zhang Xiu now, so the only way to go is to recruit and surrender.

Cao Cao began to think in his heart. Although there were conflicts with each other before, for the sake of the overall situation, letting Zhang Xiu return to surrender would be the best ending.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of Xun Yu again. Cao Cao's heart was sour, and he was unwilling to accept Zhang Xiu.

"My lord, my subordinates are willing to go to Rang County to persuade Zhang Xiu to surrender."

As soon as Guo Jia's words came out, Cao Cao and Xun You were shocked.

"Are you going?" Cao Cao asked.

"Yes. Zhang Xiu knows his current situation. Without Liu Biao as his backing, and separated from Yuan Shao in the north and south, it is more effective to surrender at this time."

Cao Cao glanced at Xun You and saw that he was frowning, knowing that this matter was not as simple as Guo Jia said.

"Surrender is feasible, but let's go with another person first, and don't let Feng Xiaoqin go." Cao Cao hesitated.

Everyone knows that Guo Jia and Cao Hong were planted in Jia Xu's hands and almost died. After suffering so much, it would be too dangerous and cruel to ask Guo Jia to go in person now.

"No, if the dispatcher is a little careless and killed by Zhang Xiu, the enmity between the two families will be added, and it will be difficult to recruit and surrender in the future." Guo Jia still insisted.

Cao Cao was still hesitant. In his heart, Guo Jia and Xun You were even as important as Wen Ruo in a certain aspect. Now that Wen Ruo is missing, if this battle was a little careless and his confidant Humerus died, wouldn't he regret it? .

Guo Jia naturally saw Cao Cao's concerns, and was moved, but he was still as carefree as before, "My lord and the military adviser, don't worry, my subordinates can do nothing else, and I have never been afraid of anyone in a war of words. Tongue, Zhang Xiu must be able to think about it carefully."

Cao Cao saw his confident and playful smile, and said hard-heartedly: "Okay, but you must be careful, whether you succeed or fail, your life is the most important thing."

"promise!"

Guo Jia hesitated for a moment and said: "It's just Zilian's side, please explain it a little bit, my lord."

Cao Cao wondered, "You and Zi Lian have always been close, why don't you persuade yourself?"

Guo Jia faltered and refused to say more.

Cao Cao saw the clue, smiled and said: "Okay, don't worry, I will talk about Zilian."

"Thank you, my lord, this subordinate plans to leave now."

"You have just arrived, why are you in such a hurry?"

As soon as Guo Jia arrived at the camp, he knew that Cao Cao had ordered Cao Hong and Xiahou Dun to set off to the camp to prepare for the battle against Yuan Shao. Cao Cao would call back every soldier he could, in case no one was around.

Guo Jia knew very well that he was escorting food and grass, and Cao Hong was faster than Cao Hong. In a few days, Cao Hong would definitely arrive at Daying.

"Surrender should be sooner rather than later."

Cao Cao deliberately said: "Zi Lian and Yuan Rang are also on the way, why don't you stay a few more days and say hello to them before leaving?"

"It's the same when I come back and say hello."

Seeing that he persisted, Cao Cao had no choice but to let him set off immediately.

Guo Jia really didn't delay for a moment, and immediately took people south to talk to Zhang Xiu.

Guo Jia hasn't exercised his muscles for a long time, and he misses the scene of his verbal battle against the Confucianists. During these days when his heart was aroused, he has neglected to practice. Thinking about it like this is funny, and he got nothing in the end.

Because of Qiang Li's desire to prove himself, Guo Jia rushed all the way to Nanyang non-stop all night, until he passed the boundary of Nanyang, and then stopped in the neighboring city for repairs.
