Yuan Shao told Cao Cao about the Chuanguo Yuxi, of course not to give the Chuanguo Yuxi to Cao Cao, he just wanted to test Cao Cao on the one hand, and on the other hand wanted to split the relationship between Cao Cao and Sun Jian.
In any case, Cao Cao and Sun Jian joined hands to fight against Dong Zhuo all the way, which really made their relationship with each other closer than ordinary princes.
Yuan Shao even said to Cao Cao: "If Meng De can allow General Sun to take the initiative to hand in the Jade Seal of the Kingdom, it will definitely become a righteous deed that will be famous all over the world and passed on to future generations."
To put it bluntly, if the Jade Seal of Chuanguo is really to be handed over, then it cannot be handed over to anyone else, but Yuan Shao, who is the leader of the alliance, can only be handed over.
Yuan Shao even said bluntly: "It is a great achievement to recover the lost Jade Seal of Chuanguo. I will definitely present it to the Son of Heaven, and please make you Yanzhou Shepherd."
Of course Cao Cao understood Yuan Shao's purpose, he just smiled and asked, "Oh? Let me be the shepherd of Yanzhou? This is really a great achievement, but if I become the shepherd of Yanzhou, what will Liu Dai do?"
"Liu Dai is useless. He procrastinated in chasing Dong Zhuo, which caused me to delay the battle and fail to rescue Mengde in time. It is really a great crime. How can such a person be the shepherd of Yanzhou?"
Cao Cao laughed at Yuan Shao's words: "Okay! Okay! At first you really saw me through. I really want to be the shepherd of Yanzhou. I've been thinking about it day and night."
Hearing this, Yuan Shao also laughed: "Then the matter of passing on the jade seal of the country..."
"I can't promise you about the Chuanguo Yuxi!" Cao Cao suddenly restrained his smile: "At the beginning, now that Dong Zhuo has fled to Chang'an in a hurry, what does he want most? He wants to appease the hearts of the princes of the world! What is Liu Dai? Liu Dai was not seen by Dong Zhuo at all, it was me! It was I, Cao Cao, who led the troops in pursuit, even picked out two of Dong Zhuo’s generals, and I even captured Hua Xiong alive! Dong Zhuo took the emperor and fled all the way, it was me! It was me, Cao Cao He threw away his helmet and unarmed the one who led the soldiers, and Liu Dai and I are not on the same level in Dong Zhuo's eyes!"
When Yuan Shao heard this, his face lost the initial enthusiasm: "Oh? What does Meng De mean by saying this?"
Cao Cao smiled: "What I mean is, if Dong Zhuo wants to calm the minds of the princes, as long as I, Cao Cao, tell me that I want to be the shepherd of Yanzhou, Dong Zhuo will definitely ask the emperor to make me the shepherd of Yanzhou. Why? Because he is afraid of me. He is afraid that I will attack him again! Why would you use such an obvious thing as a favor for me in the first place."
Yuan Shao immediately snorted: "Meng De is really good, but what about you leading troops to pursue? Isn't the emperor still in Dong Zhuo's hands?"
Hearing this, Cao Cao just laughed and didn't answer. Then he stood up and said, "It's getting late, Cao should go back, and leave."
After finishing speaking, he left directly regardless of Yuan Shao's expression.
After Cao Cao returned to the camp, Guo Jia was quite appreciative of this matter: "My lord is right to do this. He is the Yanzhou shepherd who is clearly there. There is still a need for Yuan Shao to beg for us to get it. As long as the lord wants it, Dong Zhuo Can I still give it?"
"But Fengxiao, I still don't understand one thing." Cao Cao couldn't figure it out all the time: "Why don't you let me recover the emperor?"
Guo Jia shook his head: "It seems that my lord is still unwilling, so let's think about it, my lord, if you get back the emperor, what will happen to the current situation? The big man singing and dancing is about to rise to peace? Or are you being promoted by the emperor to become a prince?" Great achievements beyond the world? Neither, we will only become thorns in the eyes of the princes from all walks of life, just like Sun Jian now."
Hearing Guo Jia's words, Cao Cao became interested, so Guo Jia continued to analyze.
To put it bluntly, for Dongjun, it doesn't matter whether they can chase the emperor back, as long as they chase him, that's enough.
If Cao Cao recovers the Son of Heaven, then his contribution will be too great, even surpassing Yuan Shao, the leader of the alliance. The Son of Heaven should indeed praise Cao Cao, but so what?With Cao Cao's current strength, he doesn't have the ability to eat a fat man in one bite, and he is not afraid of being choked to death. On the contrary, it will cause dissatisfaction among the princes.
Everyone has contributed to the crusade against Dong Zhuo, so why is it Cao Cao's first contribution?What's more, there are brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. Although Guo Jia doesn't like these two people, he has to admit that the fourth generation of the Yuan family and the three princes are all over the world, which is not something Cao Cao can match.
It is definitely not worthwhile to use something that I can't eat at all to attract the hostility of the princes from all walks of life, and even the dissatisfaction of the Yuan brothers.
For Cao Cao, now that he has gone after the emperor, he has become famous all over the world and has become an example of loyalty. As for not chasing him back, isn't that just satisfying others?Otherwise, what Yuan Shao has to deal with today is not Sun Jian but Cao Cao.
As for things like being promoted to rank, as I said at the beginning, Liu Dai is nothing at all. After this crusade, Dong Zhuo will definitely appease the hearts of the princes of the world. Yes, Dong Zhuoyue will give high-ranking officials a generous salary, not for anything else, just look at Dong Zhuo’s rush to move the capital to Chang’an, and you will know that he will also be afraid. Dong Zhuo hijacked the emperor to give this official, which is comparable to Cao Cao chasing the emperor back and then telling the emperor. It is much better to be an official.
Cao Cao is still too weak now, even if he wants to recover the emperor, it shouldn't be Cao Cao who chased him back.
After hearing Guo Jia's words, Cao Cao made up his mind not to interfere with Yuan Shao and Sun Jian's affairs. Sure enough, Sun Jian bid farewell to Yuan Shao and returned to Jiangdong the day after the allied forces entered Luoyang.
Cao Cao only ran to see Sun Jian off as if he didn't know anything, but when he parted, Cao Cao still couldn't help asking: "General Sun, did you really take the Jade Seal of Chuanguo?"
Facing Cao Cao, who had helped the Jiangdong Army time and time again, it can be said that he had a great favor to the Jiangdong Army, Sun Jian just sighed and didn't speak, but his attitude already showed everything.
In the end, Cao Cao didn't ask any more questions but said: "General Sun is a hero. I also have a word of advice here. Passing down the jade seal of the country is a disaster rather than a blessing. Please take care of the general."
Sun Jian also cupped his hands and said, "Thank you."
The atmosphere on Cao Cao's side was not bad, but it was not so good on Sun Ce's side. Seeing Su Yunshuang was almost embarrassing, or in other words, he had a particularly delicate and complicated emotion.
My first love was bleak, and I thought of that ruthless mother, that was my boyish heart that was broken all over the place!
Of course, Sun Ce wouldn't say that, but his mood did fit.
Sun Ce was embarrassed when he saw Su Yunshuang, but Sun Quan was fine, and when he parted, he was hugged and played by Su Yunshuang for a long time.
After all, he is the future lord of Soochow Wu, and he is still young. This bun's face needs to be squeezed once less.
Not to mention that Sun Quan is currently a cute and beautiful lady, and it feels really good when pinched.
Sun Jian turned a blind eye to Su Yunshuang's bullying of his son, and instead said: "It seems that Mrs. Su really likes Quan'er."
"That's it," Su Yunshuang said with a smile, "Quan'er is so smart and cute, who doesn't like it."
As he spoke, he pinched Sun Quan's bun face again.
Sun Quan: "...qaq"
father!Why don't you care!
Sun Jian led his troops back to Jiangdong. Cao Cao didn't want to stay in Luoyang for a long time, so he also bid farewell to Yuan Shao.
Sun Ce went back with Sun Jian, and Su Yunshuang followed Cao Cao back to Dongjun, but...
"Mother, why do you look unhappy?" Guo Jia is very sensitive to Su Yunshuang's attitude, or insensitivity is okay. Ever since Sun Ce left, Su Yunshuang seems to have fallen into some strange emotion. .
Su Yunshuang turned back to Guo Jia and sighed: "I'm just very strange, you think my qualifications are not bad, right? Why has only Sun Ce had a vision for so many years? Of course I don't plan to marry, but if I don't marry and I don't People want it to be two different things, right?"
The corner of Guo Jia's mouth twitched: "Probably people in Dongjun are more self-aware."
Knowing that Wen's can't beat him, and Wu's can't beat Lu Bu, so except for the first batch of dismissals, the others consciously settled down.
Of course Su Yunshuang didn't believe Guo Jia's words, but she was just emotional for a moment, and soon put the question aside and ignored it.
Seeing that Su Yunshuang was no longer concerned about this, Guo Jia smiled and moved her face closer to Su Yunshuang, making Su Yunshuang look at him with a frown: "What are you doing? Hurry up, don't mess around."
But Guo Jia was aggrieved: "Mom, you would rather pinch that Jiangdong kid, Sun Quan, and turn your back on your own son. You really don't love me anymore."
Su Yunshuang: "..."
Of course Su Yunshuang knew that Guo Jia was pretending on purpose, but she had always been used to Guo Jia, and she had been used to children for so many years. At this time, Su Yunshuang really squeezed Guo Jia's face.
Then he said to Guo Jia solemnly: "It's not comparable to Sun Quan's."
The pinching of Sun Quan's small face is really good!
Guo Jia blinked, and just about to say something, Lu Bu came over for some reason: "Mom, do you want to pinch mine?"
Su Yunshuang looked disgusted: "...you go away."
Lu Bu: "...qaq"
Why do you despise him again!
Why else?
Sun Quan's pink and tender face is of course good. Guo Jia has been cared for by Su Yunshuang for so many years, and Cao Cao usually understands him, so if you want to pinch Su Yunshuang, you have to do it... Lu Bu... a rough old man What's wrong with your face!
Just when Cao Cao returned to Dongjun, he received an unexpected news.
Sun Jian died.
On the way back to Jiangdong, Sun Jian was shot dead by Liu Biao's subordinates with random arrows, and even his dead body was in the hands of Liu Biao in Jingzhou.
Cao Cao's first reaction when he heard the news was that he couldn't believe it. He didn't say how brave Sun Jian was, but he only said Liu Biao in Jingzhou. Judging from the letters that Xu Fu sent back over the years, Liu Biao was just the lord of the city. If you are not aggressive, this kind of person is not worth caring about.
What's more, Liu Biao claimed to be a clan member of the Han Dynasty and always treated people with a generous and benevolent image. Sun Jian had just made great contributions to the Han Dynasty's crusade against Dong Zhuo, and Liu Biao conspired to kill people here.
In the end, even Cao Cao could only sigh: "The Jade Seal of Chuanguo is really harmful."
Liu Biao was able to be cruel to attack Sun Jian at this time, only for the sake of passing on the jade seal of the country.
Su Yunshuang thought for a while and then asked: "Once Sun Jian dies, the only one who will inherit Sun Jian's position will be Sun Ce. It is said that Sun Jian's body is in Liu Biao's hands, so Sun Ce will definitely not let it go. We had a good relationship with Sun Jian before." , at this time, should I help a little bit?"
Guo Jia didn't care much about this matter: "It doesn't matter if you help or not. If you want to help, my lord will write a letter and send it to Jingzhou as soon as possible. It's enough to persuade Liu Biao to release Sun Jian's body. You don't need to do anything else."
only……
"Mother, what do you say, it has nothing to do with Sun Ce?" Guo Jia was more concerned about this issue.
You said how worrying it is to have a young mother!
Su Yunshuang twitched the corner of her mouth: "You think too much, I just think this kind of thing is easy for us, but it's different for Jiangdong."
Su Yunshuang remembers Guo Jia's story that after Cao Cao's battle at Guandu, he was worried that Sun Ce would attack him, but Guo Jia said that Sun Ce would not come, and that Sun Ce would die at the hands of assassins, and Sun Ce really died at the hands of assassins. hands up.
But Sun Ce's death is not good at all. After Sun Ce's death, Sun Quan succeeded to the throne. Obviously, Sun Quan is a more terrifying opponent than both Sun Jian and Sun Ce. Sun Jian and Sun Ce are mainly because of their bravery, but Sun Quan is not. , in terms of the degree of danger, Sun Quan is more than ten times that of Sun Ce.
But if the relationship between Cao Cao and Sun Ce is good, then will Sun Ce not come to attack Cao Cao at that time, and as long as Sun Ce is not dead, then there will be nothing wrong with Sun Quan.
Although I don't know if it will be useful, but Su Yunshuang thinks that this matter has no loss to them, it's just a letter, why not do this kind of free favor?
This time Cao Cao returned to Dongjun, and he was promoted by the court to be the shepherd of Yanzhou not long after, completely kicking Liu Dai, but what can Liu Dai do?If he really wanted to fight, he would not be Cao Cao's opponent.
Cao Cao became the shepherd of Yanzhou, and the territory was considered large. After all, it was a land of one state. Now that Cao Cao met Tao Qian, he was considered equal.
Sure enough, Tao Qian heard that Cao Cao had been promoted, and soon sent someone to congratulate him.
But the bigger the territory, the more troublesome things, at least besides Dongjun, Liu Dai doesn't have many rich places for Cao Cao. Fortunately, with Dongjun's experience, they have a good relationship with the Mi family these years, but not It's too tough.
Cao Cao has the foundation of Dongjun, so it is not difficult to become a Yanzhou pastor. After the situation is relatively stable, Cao Cao sent people back to his hometown to pick up his father Cao Song to Yanzhou.
Cao Song must pass through Xuzhou if he wants to come to Yanzhou. Cao Cao doesn't care much about this. Tao Qian is also an honest man, and he has a good relationship with Cao Cao in the past few years, so Cao Cao is not worried about passing through Xuzhou.
Cao Cao was more concerned about another matter.
Dong Zhuo moved his capital to Chang'an, and within less than a year, Dong Zhuo died. It is said that he was killed by Situ Wang Yun's design. This should have been a good thing, but Wang Yun didn't know what stubborn temper he had committed After Dong Zhuo's death, he still wanted to kill Dong Zhuo's subordinates. The problem is that although Wang Yun killed Dong Zhuo, he used a strategy instead of an army. Overestimating today's status in the eyes of various powerful factions.
Sure enough, Wang Yun's reluctance aroused the resistance of Dong Zhuo's subordinates. As a result, Wang Yun died, and the emperor fell into the tiger's mouth again. Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu Li Ru took over Dong Zhuo's position and incorporated Dong Zhuo's army. Take over the Son of Heaven.
Cao Cao had only one sentence: "Wang Yun is confused!"
Not only Cao Cao thinks so, but also all the counselors under Cao Cao think so, but Wang Yun's confusion makes people like it.
When Guo Jia said this, Cao Cao was stunned immediately. He glanced at Guo Jia and asked, "Why did Feng Xiao make such a statement?"
"Wang Yun is in a good situation. If Dong Zhuo is killed, the morale of his subordinates will be unstable. At this time, it is the best way to win people's hearts with kindness and power. If Wang Yun can win over Dong Zhuo's remnants, his strength will increase greatly. After all, although Dong Zhuo is dead, the Xiliang army is still there. , but my lord, if Wang Yun really did this, it would be troublesome for us."
Guo Jia's words made Xun Yu glance at him. Obviously, he already knew what Guo Jia was going to say, but Xun Yu didn't speak, but let Guo Jia continue.
"My lord, if Wang Yun gains power, the situation will not be much better than Dong Zhuo is still alive, and it will even be worse for us. In other words, it will not be a good thing for all the princes in the world. Wang Yun is loyal to the Han Dynasty. But the princes of all walks of life in the world have long had great ambitions, so how could they listen to an emperor who is at the end of his life? But Wang Yun took the righteousness. Dong Zhuo is a thief, but Wang Yun is a hero who eliminates thieves, so Wang Yun cannot stay, he must die. "Guo Jia shook his head when he said this: "The princes from all walks of life know that only the weaker the emperor is, the stronger they can be. Although I don't know who used tricks to provoke Wang Yun's death, it is obvious that this is exactly what the princes from all walks of life want most. things you want."
Cao Cao remained calm and asked, "Then according to Fengxiao's opinion, what should we do?"
"My lord, I should ask, what do the princes of the world want? Then, my lord, do you still remember the matter of Yuan Shaogong and Sun Zan?"
Guo Jia's words made Cao Cao look at him suddenly, Guo Jia's face was indifferent and not flustered, Cao Cao looked at him for a long time and suddenly laughed: "Feng Xiao, Feng Xiao, you really read my mind too clearly , I don’t understand myself as well as you do.”
Guo Jia smiled faintly: "My lord, why bother to say that? My lord already knew this, not just me, Wen Ruozhi, which one of them didn't know?"
Sure enough, those who were named by Guo Jia didn't change their faces, as if they had expected all this.
Only Su Yunshuang had a dazed face, completely unaware of what this group of people understood, and in the end Su Yunshuang had no choice but to turn to look at Lu Bu, who also had a dazed face who cooperated with him.
Well, I'm relieved to see someone as confused as me =v=
Seriously, Su Yunshuang always thinks that Lu Bu is her own son, and Guo Jia...that IQ is really not in the same world as hers!
Then when Su Yunshuang went back to ask about it, Guo Jia explained: "In a peaceful and prosperous age, the lord is indeed a good minister and good general, but in this chaotic world, the Han Dynasty is in decline, and the princes of the world are fighting for power and profit. You attack me, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan are good examples. , At this time, the imperial court is just a nominal thing, and the lord has always had great ambitions, since he can't be a virtuous minister who governs the world, he naturally changed his path."
Speaking of this, Guo Jia also sighed: "The chaos in the Han Dynasty began with Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo not only messed up the world, but also messed up people's hearts. The matter of asking Dong He to move the capital has not only affected the lord on the surface. , From today, this Yanzhou will change, or in other words, when I came back from Luoyang, this Yanzhou has already been changing."
To put it bluntly, Cao Cao has always had great ambitions. If he encounters a peaceful and prosperous age, he can indeed be a loyal and good official who is dedicated to the world and the people, just like when he was the governor of Dongjun. I'm afraid my mind is not so firm.
During Dong Zhuo's Rebellion, Cao Cao was really focused on fighting at the beginning and only wanted to eliminate the thieves and help the country, but in reality?What did the Allies look like?What are the princes from all walks of life like?Even Luoyang, which was burned into ruins, and Sun Jian, who died in order to pass on the jade seal of the country, had a great influence on Cao Cao. After that, Cao Cao became the shepherd of Yanzhou. Yanzhou, anyone can change, let alone Cao Cao.
Guo Jia just said what Cao Cao really yearned for today. Cao Cao wanted to go this way, but he just followed Cao Cao's will and gave him a hand.
The decline of the imperial court is exactly what Cao Cao is most happy about now, otherwise, would he really have to wait for Wang Yun to secure his position and force the emperor to command the world?
Cao Cao would not be reconciled to this. Guo Jia knew better than anyone that when he returned from Luoyang, Cao Cao no longer pretended to be a Dongjun, but the entire Han Dynasty.
Su Yunshuang didn't understand this, but he probably understood the meaning. The current Cao Cao is no longer the Cao Cao who first arrived in Dongjun many years ago, and he is not even the Cao Cao who responded to the call and led troops to attack Dong Zhuo.
The current Cao Cao is getting closer to the traitor Su Yunshuang has heard about, the villain who has been passed down for thousands of years in the novels.
Probably because it was torn apart anyway, everyone stopped hiding. Cao Cao is not a person who hides. He just said that he not only wants Yanzhou, but also thinks about Xuzhou and Xuzhou day and night. Qingzhou.
It's just that the relationship between Xuzhou Tao Qian and Cao Cao has always been good, and he once extended a helping hand to Cao Cao when he was in the most difficult time. Therefore, if Cao Cao wants to seek Xuzhou, it is not just a matter of the army along the way.
Therefore, for Xuzhou, Guo Jia's strategy is to map it slowly, and Xun Yu also suggested that literature should be followed by martial arts, and etiquette should be followed by soldiers.
But well...
"You can take Qingzhou first, and give Tao Qian a wake-up call. He will save him from thinking that the lord is no more than the lord of the city." Xi Zhicai looked at the map when he said this: "If we take Qingzhou, Tao Qian will Qian must not be able to sleep at night. After all, our attitude has been made very clear. Tao Qian has indeed been kind to the lord, so the lord can't make the first move in the matter of Xuzhou, but we can use other methods to force Tao Qian to make the first move. "
only……
Xun Yu frowned and said, "We are seeking the land of Xuzhou. We should avoid the Mi family."
Cao Cao nodded: "Mi Zizhong is generous and righteous. Tao Qian has treated him well all these years. It is really not suitable for him to know about it. But if we avoid Mi's family, is there anyone we can use in Xuzhou?"
"Of course there are," Guo Jia pointed to Cheng Yu: "Doesn't Zhongde have a friend named Chen Deng?"
Cheng Yu had often traveled to Xuzhou back then, so if he had acquaintances in Xuzhou, he had to find Cheng Yu.
Now that he had come to this point, Cheng Yu did not refuse, and directly agreed that with his ability, it would be no problem to deal with everyone in Xuzhou.
So put aside the matter in Xuzhou, Cao Cao began to discuss with his subordinates how to take Qingzhou.
Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion has passed for so many years, Qingzhou has not had a good time. Even now, Qingzhou is also a gathering place for the remnants of the Yellow Turbans. For any other reason, Cao Cao also wanted to attack Qingzhou, so he wouldn't have kept hundreds of thousands of rebels by his side all the time, right?
Lu Bu listened to the group of people talking about the troubles of Xuzhou and Qingzhou for a while, and when Guo Jia called his name, he said directly: "There is no need to be so troublesome, as long as the lord can order me an elite soldier, all Xuzhou and Qingzhou will be given to him." Got it."
The corner of Guo Jia's mouth twitched, and he finally said: "Master, it seems that if Fengxian wants to lead the army, he should be assigned a military advisor to accompany the army."
Otherwise, like Lu Bu, even if you don't need to worry about the value of force, everyone is worried that he is going to deliver food to people in terms of IQ.
Cao Cao looked helpless, but he felt right: "It's just that I don't know who can serve as Feng Xian's military advisor?"
This is not only for Lu Bu to give him advice, but also to be able to control him, otherwise it will be useless for the military adviser to understand once Lu Bu's temper comes up.
Cao Cao looked around and didn't find such talents under his command. If he could control Lu Bu, then of course Su Yunshuang was good at it, but Su Yunshuang's own IQ was not enough.
In the end, Guo Jia cupped his hands and said: "My lord, let me go with Feng Xian."
Before Cao Cao said this, Lu Bu was dissatisfied: "Who wants to fight with you? With you by your side, tsk, how much is it worth to drop in force."
Guo Jia replied to Lu Bu very calmly: "It just so happens that when you are by my side, I also feel that my brain is not working well."
Lu Bu must have had an aura of lowering the IQ of those around him!
After hearing Guo Jia's words, Lu Bu couldn't bear it anymore, but Cao Cao had already made a decision: "Feng Xiao and Feng Xian will go all the way together, and Madam Su by the way is enough."
With Su Yunshuang around, Cao Cao believed that the two would not be able to fight.
To attack Qingzhou, Cao Cao is going to send out three armies. In addition to Lu Bu, there are also Zhao Yun, Cao Ren, and Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun.
Cao Cao himself stayed to watch the house. After all, Yanzhou had only so many troops. If the three armies had enough troops, Yanzhou would naturally be a little empty.
Just when Su Yunshuang was about to leave with the army, Xu Fu's regular letter arrived again, but this time, Guo Jia took a look at Xu Fu's letter and went straight to Cao Cao's state pastoral mansion happily.
After a group of people were called, Guo Jia sent Xu Fu's letter and said: "My lord, please read it, I am very happy!"
Cao Cao was a little puzzled before, but he took a look at it and laughed along with it: "I'm really overjoyed, Yuanzhi hasn't learned in vain in Jingxiang for so many years."
Xu Fu first went out to study, but ended up running all the way to the border of Jingzhou, where he happened to be accepted as a disciple by Sima Hui. At that time, Sima Hui was Liu Biao's guest. Liu Biao respected Sima Hui a lot, and Xu Fu had a good status in Jingzhou. .
Later Sima Hui bid farewell to Liu Biao and said that he would go back to teach and educate people, so Xu Fu naturally followed Sima Hui. Sima Hui liked Xu Fu very much, and introduced him to his friend Pang Degong Huang Chengyan and others. It will become good, and Xu Fu has gradually gained a reputation, and has become a celebrity in Xiangyang in the past few years.
Of course, this is not important. Everyone has known about Xu Fu getting better and better and becoming a celebrity. Before Xu Fu wrote the letter, Sun Ce had visited him several times.
But now Sun Ce is dependent on others. Although Xu Fu thinks that Sun Ce is extraordinary, he will become a great event in the future, but he can't just agree. Besides, he is Cao Cao's man.
Guo Jia said to Cao Cao: "Sun Ce is not inferior to his father. Although he is now under the fence, Yuan Shu must not be able to restrain him. You can see that he is currently under Yuan Shu's command and he is going to make friends with Yuan Zhi. Sun Ce is also a man with great ambitions. Sooner or later, he will part ways with Yuan Shu, and my lord, don't forget that although Sun Jian is dead, Jiangdong's foundation is still there, if Sun Ce returns to Jiangdong, he will be like a tiger returning to the mountain, and he will be the enemy of the lord in the future."
Obviously Cao Cao agrees with Guo Jia's analysis, but now...
"Let Yuan Zhi go with them!" Cao Cao smiled happily: "With Yuan Zhi here, no matter who Sun Ce is, all his plans are under our control."
What's more, Cao Cao knows best that the existence of counselors is not just something that you must like if you are talented, or in other words, in fact, there are still a lot of personal feelings involved in this kind of thing.
Just like he did to Guo Jia.
Guo Jia began to follow him from the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and Guo Jia never left him during the most difficult and desolate days when he first arrived in Dongjun. For a great talent like Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai, for Cao Cao, Guo Jiana must be different from other counselors.
Guo Jia was only 16 years old when he followed him. He has been with him since he was a boy and a half until today. Cao Cao knows that Sun Ce is at his worst. If Xu Fu starts to follow Sun Ce from this time, then in the future, Xu Fuzhi To Sun Ce, just like Guo Jia is to Cao Cao!
therefore……
"Let Yuanzhi agree to Sun Ce, and I don't want him to be a spy for us to pass on any news, as long as he can plan for Sun Ce with peace of mind." Cao Cao knew exactly what to do in such a situation: "Sun Ce will not be our enemy for a day. , Yuan Zhi just doesn’t move for a day, and when it’s necessary, a move will have a miraculous effect.”
Guo Jia stopped talking when he heard Cao Cao's words. In fact, he thought the same as Cao Cao.
After replying to Xu Fu, Cao Cao specially arranged a special contact line for Xu Fu. After all, he would not be able to send letters casually like now.
In fact, Guo Jia even suggested to send people to Jiangdong from now on, and not to do other things, just live like an ordinary Jiangdong person, and establish a contact point after gaining a firm foothold.
Guo Jia judged that if Sun Ce wanted to completely get rid of Yuan Shu and return to Jiangdong to regain his vitality, it would take a few years, and it would take even more time for Sun Ce to grow to the point where he could become an enemy of Cao Cao. It took such a long time , even a small seed can grow a solid foundation.
The most important thing is that no one would have thought that they only have one state in themselves, Qingzhou has not yet been won, Xuzhou is even gone, and Sun Ce has already started to make arrangements when he can only live under Yuan Shu Jiangdong in the future.
"Yuanzhi chose Jingzhou to study at the beginning, and now it seems that he chose well!" Cao Cao laughed.
At the beginning he was reluctant to part with Xu Fu, but now it seems that letting Xu Fu go is simply too far-sighted.
Of course, no matter how far-sighted, Jiangdong's affairs are still far away. For Cao Cao and his subordinates, the most important thing now is to win Qingzhou.
Cheng Yu said bluntly for this: "My lord does not need to spare manpower and material resources in this battle. From the time my lord took control of Yanzhou until today, my lord can be said to have managed well. Now that Yanzhou is under great rule, there is no shortage of manpower and material resources. The most important thing is that as long as you get Qingzhou , we have a large piece of land again, and the hundreds of thousands of young men and their families in Qingzhou, there are people who have land and a benevolent government, so why worry about Qingzhou not being able to develop?"
Hearing this, Cao Cao felt relieved. He had been worried before. After all, the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou had a good fighting power. It is to waste the accumulation of the past few years, as long as you get Qingzhou, any price is worth it.
Guo Jia also agreed with Cheng Yu's statement: "My lord, there is no need to worry about Tao Qian in Xuzhou. Tao Qian is old, and most of his descendants are mediocre, so don't worry about it."
To put it bluntly, Tao Qian was not a person with a particularly enterprising spirit and a strong desire for power. Now that Tao Qian is old, he has no ambitions. As for Tao Qian's sons... don't mention it, then Really one is not as good as the other.
Therefore, as long as Yanzhou is not really hurt, then there is nothing to worry about.
With this guarantee, Cao Cao immediately mobilized his troops and just waited to take Qingzhou.
Su Yunshuang followed Lu Bu all the way, so he basically didn't need to think about the yellow scarves he met. Su Yunshuang or Lu Bu would just pick people off the horse, and then the army would press on.
I have to say that although Lu Bu usually seems to have a low IQ, it is true when he is on the battlefield. Su Yunshuang always feels that people like Lu Bu were born for the battlefield. Lu Bu's battlefield intuition is extremely keen. The countermeasures that he came up with after careful consideration were not as good as Lu Bu's intuitive arrangement of soldiers and horses.
When a person like Lu Bu went to the battlefield, Su Yunshuang sometimes wondered who was the one who cheated on her or Lu Bu.
In the end, Lu Bu's war horse was useless to Su Yunshuang's Li Feisha. For nothing else, the system asked a question - does Lu Bu have a domestication system?
Su Yunshuang: "..."
She forgot about this one!
If you want to send Li Feisha, you can’t rely on Lu Bu to raise it, then you can only give it to Su Yunshuang after raising it, but Li Feisha’s raising it is too much a test of patience, let alone a big eater, horse grass is really a basket. So Su Yunshuang twitched the corner of his mouth and healed the Chitu.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with the Chitu. After all, it is also a Chitu, and Su Yunshuang can't bear to fight it. Therefore, although the Chitu is injured, it is only temporarily unable to fight again. The negative internal force is resolved, and after raising it carefully for a period of time, it is not a problem for the red rabbit to return to its original state.
Now that Lu Bu, a peerless general, is paired with a unparalleled horse like Chitu, it is really like a tiger with wings added.
But probably the value of force is too high, even if we fight all the way here, Lu Bu is not happy at all: "Why doesn't the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army have a decent character?"
The corners of Su Yunshuang's mouth twitched: "What do you say looks good, what does it look like?"
"At least you can go to dozens of rounds with me, right?" Lu Bu said this very naturally.
But Su Yunshuang just wants to say, if there are people among them who can go under your hands for dozens of rounds, it won't be just bandits for so many years and can't be the lord of a place.
The distribution of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou is very chaotic, or completely disorganized and undisciplined. Although such opponents are easy to fight, it takes time, and they must be fought wave after wave.
Until one day the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans didn't know what to do, they went directly to the door to ask for surrender, and expressed their willingness to surrender to Cao Cao, and were incorporated by Cao Cao.
But Guo Jia just sneered at the yellow scarves who came to vote all the way: "Why surrender? You really came to surrender? It's just because my lord is powerful now, so I want to lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade. I really think everyone else Is it a fool who can't see your intentions?"
When Lu Bu heard it, he immediately applauded: "Fight, fight, how can you not fight like this!"
He was worried that the war would end too soon and he would return to the days without fighting.
After the envoys of the Yellow Turbans left, Guo Jia asked Lv Bu to let go of the fight. Lv Bu's combat power was simply inhuman. The Yellow Turbans who fought him repeatedly sent people to sue for peace. It was not until the fourth time that Guo Jia finally agreed to stop.
"I have already sent a letter to Zilongyuan to let Miaocai and the others. This time we can stop together. The Qingzhou Yellow Turbans are already frightened, so there is no need to fight anymore."
Guo Jia knew this group of Yellow Turbans too well. They were soldiers rather than bandits. If they were not completely convinced and fearful, even if they were recruited, they would not be usable. became a gang of official robbers
In any case, Cao Cao and Sun Jian joined hands to fight against Dong Zhuo all the way, which really made their relationship with each other closer than ordinary princes.
Yuan Shao even said to Cao Cao: "If Meng De can allow General Sun to take the initiative to hand in the Jade Seal of the Kingdom, it will definitely become a righteous deed that will be famous all over the world and passed on to future generations."
To put it bluntly, if the Jade Seal of Chuanguo is really to be handed over, then it cannot be handed over to anyone else, but Yuan Shao, who is the leader of the alliance, can only be handed over.
Yuan Shao even said bluntly: "It is a great achievement to recover the lost Jade Seal of Chuanguo. I will definitely present it to the Son of Heaven, and please make you Yanzhou Shepherd."
Of course Cao Cao understood Yuan Shao's purpose, he just smiled and asked, "Oh? Let me be the shepherd of Yanzhou? This is really a great achievement, but if I become the shepherd of Yanzhou, what will Liu Dai do?"
"Liu Dai is useless. He procrastinated in chasing Dong Zhuo, which caused me to delay the battle and fail to rescue Mengde in time. It is really a great crime. How can such a person be the shepherd of Yanzhou?"
Cao Cao laughed at Yuan Shao's words: "Okay! Okay! At first you really saw me through. I really want to be the shepherd of Yanzhou. I've been thinking about it day and night."
Hearing this, Yuan Shao also laughed: "Then the matter of passing on the jade seal of the country..."
"I can't promise you about the Chuanguo Yuxi!" Cao Cao suddenly restrained his smile: "At the beginning, now that Dong Zhuo has fled to Chang'an in a hurry, what does he want most? He wants to appease the hearts of the princes of the world! What is Liu Dai? Liu Dai was not seen by Dong Zhuo at all, it was me! It was I, Cao Cao, who led the troops in pursuit, even picked out two of Dong Zhuo’s generals, and I even captured Hua Xiong alive! Dong Zhuo took the emperor and fled all the way, it was me! It was me, Cao Cao He threw away his helmet and unarmed the one who led the soldiers, and Liu Dai and I are not on the same level in Dong Zhuo's eyes!"
When Yuan Shao heard this, his face lost the initial enthusiasm: "Oh? What does Meng De mean by saying this?"
Cao Cao smiled: "What I mean is, if Dong Zhuo wants to calm the minds of the princes, as long as I, Cao Cao, tell me that I want to be the shepherd of Yanzhou, Dong Zhuo will definitely ask the emperor to make me the shepherd of Yanzhou. Why? Because he is afraid of me. He is afraid that I will attack him again! Why would you use such an obvious thing as a favor for me in the first place."
Yuan Shao immediately snorted: "Meng De is really good, but what about you leading troops to pursue? Isn't the emperor still in Dong Zhuo's hands?"
Hearing this, Cao Cao just laughed and didn't answer. Then he stood up and said, "It's getting late, Cao should go back, and leave."
After finishing speaking, he left directly regardless of Yuan Shao's expression.
After Cao Cao returned to the camp, Guo Jia was quite appreciative of this matter: "My lord is right to do this. He is the Yanzhou shepherd who is clearly there. There is still a need for Yuan Shao to beg for us to get it. As long as the lord wants it, Dong Zhuo Can I still give it?"
"But Fengxiao, I still don't understand one thing." Cao Cao couldn't figure it out all the time: "Why don't you let me recover the emperor?"
Guo Jia shook his head: "It seems that my lord is still unwilling, so let's think about it, my lord, if you get back the emperor, what will happen to the current situation? The big man singing and dancing is about to rise to peace? Or are you being promoted by the emperor to become a prince?" Great achievements beyond the world? Neither, we will only become thorns in the eyes of the princes from all walks of life, just like Sun Jian now."
Hearing Guo Jia's words, Cao Cao became interested, so Guo Jia continued to analyze.
To put it bluntly, for Dongjun, it doesn't matter whether they can chase the emperor back, as long as they chase him, that's enough.
If Cao Cao recovers the Son of Heaven, then his contribution will be too great, even surpassing Yuan Shao, the leader of the alliance. The Son of Heaven should indeed praise Cao Cao, but so what?With Cao Cao's current strength, he doesn't have the ability to eat a fat man in one bite, and he is not afraid of being choked to death. On the contrary, it will cause dissatisfaction among the princes.
Everyone has contributed to the crusade against Dong Zhuo, so why is it Cao Cao's first contribution?What's more, there are brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. Although Guo Jia doesn't like these two people, he has to admit that the fourth generation of the Yuan family and the three princes are all over the world, which is not something Cao Cao can match.
It is definitely not worthwhile to use something that I can't eat at all to attract the hostility of the princes from all walks of life, and even the dissatisfaction of the Yuan brothers.
For Cao Cao, now that he has gone after the emperor, he has become famous all over the world and has become an example of loyalty. As for not chasing him back, isn't that just satisfying others?Otherwise, what Yuan Shao has to deal with today is not Sun Jian but Cao Cao.
As for things like being promoted to rank, as I said at the beginning, Liu Dai is nothing at all. After this crusade, Dong Zhuo will definitely appease the hearts of the princes of the world. Yes, Dong Zhuoyue will give high-ranking officials a generous salary, not for anything else, just look at Dong Zhuo’s rush to move the capital to Chang’an, and you will know that he will also be afraid. Dong Zhuo hijacked the emperor to give this official, which is comparable to Cao Cao chasing the emperor back and then telling the emperor. It is much better to be an official.
Cao Cao is still too weak now, even if he wants to recover the emperor, it shouldn't be Cao Cao who chased him back.
After hearing Guo Jia's words, Cao Cao made up his mind not to interfere with Yuan Shao and Sun Jian's affairs. Sure enough, Sun Jian bid farewell to Yuan Shao and returned to Jiangdong the day after the allied forces entered Luoyang.
Cao Cao only ran to see Sun Jian off as if he didn't know anything, but when he parted, Cao Cao still couldn't help asking: "General Sun, did you really take the Jade Seal of Chuanguo?"
Facing Cao Cao, who had helped the Jiangdong Army time and time again, it can be said that he had a great favor to the Jiangdong Army, Sun Jian just sighed and didn't speak, but his attitude already showed everything.
In the end, Cao Cao didn't ask any more questions but said: "General Sun is a hero. I also have a word of advice here. Passing down the jade seal of the country is a disaster rather than a blessing. Please take care of the general."
Sun Jian also cupped his hands and said, "Thank you."
The atmosphere on Cao Cao's side was not bad, but it was not so good on Sun Ce's side. Seeing Su Yunshuang was almost embarrassing, or in other words, he had a particularly delicate and complicated emotion.
My first love was bleak, and I thought of that ruthless mother, that was my boyish heart that was broken all over the place!
Of course, Sun Ce wouldn't say that, but his mood did fit.
Sun Ce was embarrassed when he saw Su Yunshuang, but Sun Quan was fine, and when he parted, he was hugged and played by Su Yunshuang for a long time.
After all, he is the future lord of Soochow Wu, and he is still young. This bun's face needs to be squeezed once less.
Not to mention that Sun Quan is currently a cute and beautiful lady, and it feels really good when pinched.
Sun Jian turned a blind eye to Su Yunshuang's bullying of his son, and instead said: "It seems that Mrs. Su really likes Quan'er."
"That's it," Su Yunshuang said with a smile, "Quan'er is so smart and cute, who doesn't like it."
As he spoke, he pinched Sun Quan's bun face again.
Sun Quan: "...qaq"
father!Why don't you care!
Sun Jian led his troops back to Jiangdong. Cao Cao didn't want to stay in Luoyang for a long time, so he also bid farewell to Yuan Shao.
Sun Ce went back with Sun Jian, and Su Yunshuang followed Cao Cao back to Dongjun, but...
"Mother, why do you look unhappy?" Guo Jia is very sensitive to Su Yunshuang's attitude, or insensitivity is okay. Ever since Sun Ce left, Su Yunshuang seems to have fallen into some strange emotion. .
Su Yunshuang turned back to Guo Jia and sighed: "I'm just very strange, you think my qualifications are not bad, right? Why has only Sun Ce had a vision for so many years? Of course I don't plan to marry, but if I don't marry and I don't People want it to be two different things, right?"
The corner of Guo Jia's mouth twitched: "Probably people in Dongjun are more self-aware."
Knowing that Wen's can't beat him, and Wu's can't beat Lu Bu, so except for the first batch of dismissals, the others consciously settled down.
Of course Su Yunshuang didn't believe Guo Jia's words, but she was just emotional for a moment, and soon put the question aside and ignored it.
Seeing that Su Yunshuang was no longer concerned about this, Guo Jia smiled and moved her face closer to Su Yunshuang, making Su Yunshuang look at him with a frown: "What are you doing? Hurry up, don't mess around."
But Guo Jia was aggrieved: "Mom, you would rather pinch that Jiangdong kid, Sun Quan, and turn your back on your own son. You really don't love me anymore."
Su Yunshuang: "..."
Of course Su Yunshuang knew that Guo Jia was pretending on purpose, but she had always been used to Guo Jia, and she had been used to children for so many years. At this time, Su Yunshuang really squeezed Guo Jia's face.
Then he said to Guo Jia solemnly: "It's not comparable to Sun Quan's."
The pinching of Sun Quan's small face is really good!
Guo Jia blinked, and just about to say something, Lu Bu came over for some reason: "Mom, do you want to pinch mine?"
Su Yunshuang looked disgusted: "...you go away."
Lu Bu: "...qaq"
Why do you despise him again!
Why else?
Sun Quan's pink and tender face is of course good. Guo Jia has been cared for by Su Yunshuang for so many years, and Cao Cao usually understands him, so if you want to pinch Su Yunshuang, you have to do it... Lu Bu... a rough old man What's wrong with your face!
Just when Cao Cao returned to Dongjun, he received an unexpected news.
Sun Jian died.
On the way back to Jiangdong, Sun Jian was shot dead by Liu Biao's subordinates with random arrows, and even his dead body was in the hands of Liu Biao in Jingzhou.
Cao Cao's first reaction when he heard the news was that he couldn't believe it. He didn't say how brave Sun Jian was, but he only said Liu Biao in Jingzhou. Judging from the letters that Xu Fu sent back over the years, Liu Biao was just the lord of the city. If you are not aggressive, this kind of person is not worth caring about.
What's more, Liu Biao claimed to be a clan member of the Han Dynasty and always treated people with a generous and benevolent image. Sun Jian had just made great contributions to the Han Dynasty's crusade against Dong Zhuo, and Liu Biao conspired to kill people here.
In the end, even Cao Cao could only sigh: "The Jade Seal of Chuanguo is really harmful."
Liu Biao was able to be cruel to attack Sun Jian at this time, only for the sake of passing on the jade seal of the country.
Su Yunshuang thought for a while and then asked: "Once Sun Jian dies, the only one who will inherit Sun Jian's position will be Sun Ce. It is said that Sun Jian's body is in Liu Biao's hands, so Sun Ce will definitely not let it go. We had a good relationship with Sun Jian before." , at this time, should I help a little bit?"
Guo Jia didn't care much about this matter: "It doesn't matter if you help or not. If you want to help, my lord will write a letter and send it to Jingzhou as soon as possible. It's enough to persuade Liu Biao to release Sun Jian's body. You don't need to do anything else."
only……
"Mother, what do you say, it has nothing to do with Sun Ce?" Guo Jia was more concerned about this issue.
You said how worrying it is to have a young mother!
Su Yunshuang twitched the corner of her mouth: "You think too much, I just think this kind of thing is easy for us, but it's different for Jiangdong."
Su Yunshuang remembers Guo Jia's story that after Cao Cao's battle at Guandu, he was worried that Sun Ce would attack him, but Guo Jia said that Sun Ce would not come, and that Sun Ce would die at the hands of assassins, and Sun Ce really died at the hands of assassins. hands up.
But Sun Ce's death is not good at all. After Sun Ce's death, Sun Quan succeeded to the throne. Obviously, Sun Quan is a more terrifying opponent than both Sun Jian and Sun Ce. Sun Jian and Sun Ce are mainly because of their bravery, but Sun Quan is not. , in terms of the degree of danger, Sun Quan is more than ten times that of Sun Ce.
But if the relationship between Cao Cao and Sun Ce is good, then will Sun Ce not come to attack Cao Cao at that time, and as long as Sun Ce is not dead, then there will be nothing wrong with Sun Quan.
Although I don't know if it will be useful, but Su Yunshuang thinks that this matter has no loss to them, it's just a letter, why not do this kind of free favor?
This time Cao Cao returned to Dongjun, and he was promoted by the court to be the shepherd of Yanzhou not long after, completely kicking Liu Dai, but what can Liu Dai do?If he really wanted to fight, he would not be Cao Cao's opponent.
Cao Cao became the shepherd of Yanzhou, and the territory was considered large. After all, it was a land of one state. Now that Cao Cao met Tao Qian, he was considered equal.
Sure enough, Tao Qian heard that Cao Cao had been promoted, and soon sent someone to congratulate him.
But the bigger the territory, the more troublesome things, at least besides Dongjun, Liu Dai doesn't have many rich places for Cao Cao. Fortunately, with Dongjun's experience, they have a good relationship with the Mi family these years, but not It's too tough.
Cao Cao has the foundation of Dongjun, so it is not difficult to become a Yanzhou pastor. After the situation is relatively stable, Cao Cao sent people back to his hometown to pick up his father Cao Song to Yanzhou.
Cao Song must pass through Xuzhou if he wants to come to Yanzhou. Cao Cao doesn't care much about this. Tao Qian is also an honest man, and he has a good relationship with Cao Cao in the past few years, so Cao Cao is not worried about passing through Xuzhou.
Cao Cao was more concerned about another matter.
Dong Zhuo moved his capital to Chang'an, and within less than a year, Dong Zhuo died. It is said that he was killed by Situ Wang Yun's design. This should have been a good thing, but Wang Yun didn't know what stubborn temper he had committed After Dong Zhuo's death, he still wanted to kill Dong Zhuo's subordinates. The problem is that although Wang Yun killed Dong Zhuo, he used a strategy instead of an army. Overestimating today's status in the eyes of various powerful factions.
Sure enough, Wang Yun's reluctance aroused the resistance of Dong Zhuo's subordinates. As a result, Wang Yun died, and the emperor fell into the tiger's mouth again. Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu Li Ru took over Dong Zhuo's position and incorporated Dong Zhuo's army. Take over the Son of Heaven.
Cao Cao had only one sentence: "Wang Yun is confused!"
Not only Cao Cao thinks so, but also all the counselors under Cao Cao think so, but Wang Yun's confusion makes people like it.
When Guo Jia said this, Cao Cao was stunned immediately. He glanced at Guo Jia and asked, "Why did Feng Xiao make such a statement?"
"Wang Yun is in a good situation. If Dong Zhuo is killed, the morale of his subordinates will be unstable. At this time, it is the best way to win people's hearts with kindness and power. If Wang Yun can win over Dong Zhuo's remnants, his strength will increase greatly. After all, although Dong Zhuo is dead, the Xiliang army is still there. , but my lord, if Wang Yun really did this, it would be troublesome for us."
Guo Jia's words made Xun Yu glance at him. Obviously, he already knew what Guo Jia was going to say, but Xun Yu didn't speak, but let Guo Jia continue.
"My lord, if Wang Yun gains power, the situation will not be much better than Dong Zhuo is still alive, and it will even be worse for us. In other words, it will not be a good thing for all the princes in the world. Wang Yun is loyal to the Han Dynasty. But the princes of all walks of life in the world have long had great ambitions, so how could they listen to an emperor who is at the end of his life? But Wang Yun took the righteousness. Dong Zhuo is a thief, but Wang Yun is a hero who eliminates thieves, so Wang Yun cannot stay, he must die. "Guo Jia shook his head when he said this: "The princes from all walks of life know that only the weaker the emperor is, the stronger they can be. Although I don't know who used tricks to provoke Wang Yun's death, it is obvious that this is exactly what the princes from all walks of life want most. things you want."
Cao Cao remained calm and asked, "Then according to Fengxiao's opinion, what should we do?"
"My lord, I should ask, what do the princes of the world want? Then, my lord, do you still remember the matter of Yuan Shaogong and Sun Zan?"
Guo Jia's words made Cao Cao look at him suddenly, Guo Jia's face was indifferent and not flustered, Cao Cao looked at him for a long time and suddenly laughed: "Feng Xiao, Feng Xiao, you really read my mind too clearly , I don’t understand myself as well as you do.”
Guo Jia smiled faintly: "My lord, why bother to say that? My lord already knew this, not just me, Wen Ruozhi, which one of them didn't know?"
Sure enough, those who were named by Guo Jia didn't change their faces, as if they had expected all this.
Only Su Yunshuang had a dazed face, completely unaware of what this group of people understood, and in the end Su Yunshuang had no choice but to turn to look at Lu Bu, who also had a dazed face who cooperated with him.
Well, I'm relieved to see someone as confused as me =v=
Seriously, Su Yunshuang always thinks that Lu Bu is her own son, and Guo Jia...that IQ is really not in the same world as hers!
Then when Su Yunshuang went back to ask about it, Guo Jia explained: "In a peaceful and prosperous age, the lord is indeed a good minister and good general, but in this chaotic world, the Han Dynasty is in decline, and the princes of the world are fighting for power and profit. You attack me, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan are good examples. , At this time, the imperial court is just a nominal thing, and the lord has always had great ambitions, since he can't be a virtuous minister who governs the world, he naturally changed his path."
Speaking of this, Guo Jia also sighed: "The chaos in the Han Dynasty began with Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo not only messed up the world, but also messed up people's hearts. The matter of asking Dong He to move the capital has not only affected the lord on the surface. , From today, this Yanzhou will change, or in other words, when I came back from Luoyang, this Yanzhou has already been changing."
To put it bluntly, Cao Cao has always had great ambitions. If he encounters a peaceful and prosperous age, he can indeed be a loyal and good official who is dedicated to the world and the people, just like when he was the governor of Dongjun. I'm afraid my mind is not so firm.
During Dong Zhuo's Rebellion, Cao Cao was really focused on fighting at the beginning and only wanted to eliminate the thieves and help the country, but in reality?What did the Allies look like?What are the princes from all walks of life like?Even Luoyang, which was burned into ruins, and Sun Jian, who died in order to pass on the jade seal of the country, had a great influence on Cao Cao. After that, Cao Cao became the shepherd of Yanzhou. Yanzhou, anyone can change, let alone Cao Cao.
Guo Jia just said what Cao Cao really yearned for today. Cao Cao wanted to go this way, but he just followed Cao Cao's will and gave him a hand.
The decline of the imperial court is exactly what Cao Cao is most happy about now, otherwise, would he really have to wait for Wang Yun to secure his position and force the emperor to command the world?
Cao Cao would not be reconciled to this. Guo Jia knew better than anyone that when he returned from Luoyang, Cao Cao no longer pretended to be a Dongjun, but the entire Han Dynasty.
Su Yunshuang didn't understand this, but he probably understood the meaning. The current Cao Cao is no longer the Cao Cao who first arrived in Dongjun many years ago, and he is not even the Cao Cao who responded to the call and led troops to attack Dong Zhuo.
The current Cao Cao is getting closer to the traitor Su Yunshuang has heard about, the villain who has been passed down for thousands of years in the novels.
Probably because it was torn apart anyway, everyone stopped hiding. Cao Cao is not a person who hides. He just said that he not only wants Yanzhou, but also thinks about Xuzhou and Xuzhou day and night. Qingzhou.
It's just that the relationship between Xuzhou Tao Qian and Cao Cao has always been good, and he once extended a helping hand to Cao Cao when he was in the most difficult time. Therefore, if Cao Cao wants to seek Xuzhou, it is not just a matter of the army along the way.
Therefore, for Xuzhou, Guo Jia's strategy is to map it slowly, and Xun Yu also suggested that literature should be followed by martial arts, and etiquette should be followed by soldiers.
But well...
"You can take Qingzhou first, and give Tao Qian a wake-up call. He will save him from thinking that the lord is no more than the lord of the city." Xi Zhicai looked at the map when he said this: "If we take Qingzhou, Tao Qian will Qian must not be able to sleep at night. After all, our attitude has been made very clear. Tao Qian has indeed been kind to the lord, so the lord can't make the first move in the matter of Xuzhou, but we can use other methods to force Tao Qian to make the first move. "
only……
Xun Yu frowned and said, "We are seeking the land of Xuzhou. We should avoid the Mi family."
Cao Cao nodded: "Mi Zizhong is generous and righteous. Tao Qian has treated him well all these years. It is really not suitable for him to know about it. But if we avoid Mi's family, is there anyone we can use in Xuzhou?"
"Of course there are," Guo Jia pointed to Cheng Yu: "Doesn't Zhongde have a friend named Chen Deng?"
Cheng Yu had often traveled to Xuzhou back then, so if he had acquaintances in Xuzhou, he had to find Cheng Yu.
Now that he had come to this point, Cheng Yu did not refuse, and directly agreed that with his ability, it would be no problem to deal with everyone in Xuzhou.
So put aside the matter in Xuzhou, Cao Cao began to discuss with his subordinates how to take Qingzhou.
Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion has passed for so many years, Qingzhou has not had a good time. Even now, Qingzhou is also a gathering place for the remnants of the Yellow Turbans. For any other reason, Cao Cao also wanted to attack Qingzhou, so he wouldn't have kept hundreds of thousands of rebels by his side all the time, right?
Lu Bu listened to the group of people talking about the troubles of Xuzhou and Qingzhou for a while, and when Guo Jia called his name, he said directly: "There is no need to be so troublesome, as long as the lord can order me an elite soldier, all Xuzhou and Qingzhou will be given to him." Got it."
The corner of Guo Jia's mouth twitched, and he finally said: "Master, it seems that if Fengxian wants to lead the army, he should be assigned a military advisor to accompany the army."
Otherwise, like Lu Bu, even if you don't need to worry about the value of force, everyone is worried that he is going to deliver food to people in terms of IQ.
Cao Cao looked helpless, but he felt right: "It's just that I don't know who can serve as Feng Xian's military advisor?"
This is not only for Lu Bu to give him advice, but also to be able to control him, otherwise it will be useless for the military adviser to understand once Lu Bu's temper comes up.
Cao Cao looked around and didn't find such talents under his command. If he could control Lu Bu, then of course Su Yunshuang was good at it, but Su Yunshuang's own IQ was not enough.
In the end, Guo Jia cupped his hands and said: "My lord, let me go with Feng Xian."
Before Cao Cao said this, Lu Bu was dissatisfied: "Who wants to fight with you? With you by your side, tsk, how much is it worth to drop in force."
Guo Jia replied to Lu Bu very calmly: "It just so happens that when you are by my side, I also feel that my brain is not working well."
Lu Bu must have had an aura of lowering the IQ of those around him!
After hearing Guo Jia's words, Lu Bu couldn't bear it anymore, but Cao Cao had already made a decision: "Feng Xiao and Feng Xian will go all the way together, and Madam Su by the way is enough."
With Su Yunshuang around, Cao Cao believed that the two would not be able to fight.
To attack Qingzhou, Cao Cao is going to send out three armies. In addition to Lu Bu, there are also Zhao Yun, Cao Ren, and Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun.
Cao Cao himself stayed to watch the house. After all, Yanzhou had only so many troops. If the three armies had enough troops, Yanzhou would naturally be a little empty.
Just when Su Yunshuang was about to leave with the army, Xu Fu's regular letter arrived again, but this time, Guo Jia took a look at Xu Fu's letter and went straight to Cao Cao's state pastoral mansion happily.
After a group of people were called, Guo Jia sent Xu Fu's letter and said: "My lord, please read it, I am very happy!"
Cao Cao was a little puzzled before, but he took a look at it and laughed along with it: "I'm really overjoyed, Yuanzhi hasn't learned in vain in Jingxiang for so many years."
Xu Fu first went out to study, but ended up running all the way to the border of Jingzhou, where he happened to be accepted as a disciple by Sima Hui. At that time, Sima Hui was Liu Biao's guest. Liu Biao respected Sima Hui a lot, and Xu Fu had a good status in Jingzhou. .
Later Sima Hui bid farewell to Liu Biao and said that he would go back to teach and educate people, so Xu Fu naturally followed Sima Hui. Sima Hui liked Xu Fu very much, and introduced him to his friend Pang Degong Huang Chengyan and others. It will become good, and Xu Fu has gradually gained a reputation, and has become a celebrity in Xiangyang in the past few years.
Of course, this is not important. Everyone has known about Xu Fu getting better and better and becoming a celebrity. Before Xu Fu wrote the letter, Sun Ce had visited him several times.
But now Sun Ce is dependent on others. Although Xu Fu thinks that Sun Ce is extraordinary, he will become a great event in the future, but he can't just agree. Besides, he is Cao Cao's man.
Guo Jia said to Cao Cao: "Sun Ce is not inferior to his father. Although he is now under the fence, Yuan Shu must not be able to restrain him. You can see that he is currently under Yuan Shu's command and he is going to make friends with Yuan Zhi. Sun Ce is also a man with great ambitions. Sooner or later, he will part ways with Yuan Shu, and my lord, don't forget that although Sun Jian is dead, Jiangdong's foundation is still there, if Sun Ce returns to Jiangdong, he will be like a tiger returning to the mountain, and he will be the enemy of the lord in the future."
Obviously Cao Cao agrees with Guo Jia's analysis, but now...
"Let Yuan Zhi go with them!" Cao Cao smiled happily: "With Yuan Zhi here, no matter who Sun Ce is, all his plans are under our control."
What's more, Cao Cao knows best that the existence of counselors is not just something that you must like if you are talented, or in other words, in fact, there are still a lot of personal feelings involved in this kind of thing.
Just like he did to Guo Jia.
Guo Jia began to follow him from the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and Guo Jia never left him during the most difficult and desolate days when he first arrived in Dongjun. For a great talent like Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai, for Cao Cao, Guo Jiana must be different from other counselors.
Guo Jia was only 16 years old when he followed him. He has been with him since he was a boy and a half until today. Cao Cao knows that Sun Ce is at his worst. If Xu Fu starts to follow Sun Ce from this time, then in the future, Xu Fuzhi To Sun Ce, just like Guo Jia is to Cao Cao!
therefore……
"Let Yuanzhi agree to Sun Ce, and I don't want him to be a spy for us to pass on any news, as long as he can plan for Sun Ce with peace of mind." Cao Cao knew exactly what to do in such a situation: "Sun Ce will not be our enemy for a day. , Yuan Zhi just doesn’t move for a day, and when it’s necessary, a move will have a miraculous effect.”
Guo Jia stopped talking when he heard Cao Cao's words. In fact, he thought the same as Cao Cao.
After replying to Xu Fu, Cao Cao specially arranged a special contact line for Xu Fu. After all, he would not be able to send letters casually like now.
In fact, Guo Jia even suggested to send people to Jiangdong from now on, and not to do other things, just live like an ordinary Jiangdong person, and establish a contact point after gaining a firm foothold.
Guo Jia judged that if Sun Ce wanted to completely get rid of Yuan Shu and return to Jiangdong to regain his vitality, it would take a few years, and it would take even more time for Sun Ce to grow to the point where he could become an enemy of Cao Cao. It took such a long time , even a small seed can grow a solid foundation.
The most important thing is that no one would have thought that they only have one state in themselves, Qingzhou has not yet been won, Xuzhou is even gone, and Sun Ce has already started to make arrangements when he can only live under Yuan Shu Jiangdong in the future.
"Yuanzhi chose Jingzhou to study at the beginning, and now it seems that he chose well!" Cao Cao laughed.
At the beginning he was reluctant to part with Xu Fu, but now it seems that letting Xu Fu go is simply too far-sighted.
Of course, no matter how far-sighted, Jiangdong's affairs are still far away. For Cao Cao and his subordinates, the most important thing now is to win Qingzhou.
Cheng Yu said bluntly for this: "My lord does not need to spare manpower and material resources in this battle. From the time my lord took control of Yanzhou until today, my lord can be said to have managed well. Now that Yanzhou is under great rule, there is no shortage of manpower and material resources. The most important thing is that as long as you get Qingzhou , we have a large piece of land again, and the hundreds of thousands of young men and their families in Qingzhou, there are people who have land and a benevolent government, so why worry about Qingzhou not being able to develop?"
Hearing this, Cao Cao felt relieved. He had been worried before. After all, the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou had a good fighting power. It is to waste the accumulation of the past few years, as long as you get Qingzhou, any price is worth it.
Guo Jia also agreed with Cheng Yu's statement: "My lord, there is no need to worry about Tao Qian in Xuzhou. Tao Qian is old, and most of his descendants are mediocre, so don't worry about it."
To put it bluntly, Tao Qian was not a person with a particularly enterprising spirit and a strong desire for power. Now that Tao Qian is old, he has no ambitions. As for Tao Qian's sons... don't mention it, then Really one is not as good as the other.
Therefore, as long as Yanzhou is not really hurt, then there is nothing to worry about.
With this guarantee, Cao Cao immediately mobilized his troops and just waited to take Qingzhou.
Su Yunshuang followed Lu Bu all the way, so he basically didn't need to think about the yellow scarves he met. Su Yunshuang or Lu Bu would just pick people off the horse, and then the army would press on.
I have to say that although Lu Bu usually seems to have a low IQ, it is true when he is on the battlefield. Su Yunshuang always feels that people like Lu Bu were born for the battlefield. Lu Bu's battlefield intuition is extremely keen. The countermeasures that he came up with after careful consideration were not as good as Lu Bu's intuitive arrangement of soldiers and horses.
When a person like Lu Bu went to the battlefield, Su Yunshuang sometimes wondered who was the one who cheated on her or Lu Bu.
In the end, Lu Bu's war horse was useless to Su Yunshuang's Li Feisha. For nothing else, the system asked a question - does Lu Bu have a domestication system?
Su Yunshuang: "..."
She forgot about this one!
If you want to send Li Feisha, you can’t rely on Lu Bu to raise it, then you can only give it to Su Yunshuang after raising it, but Li Feisha’s raising it is too much a test of patience, let alone a big eater, horse grass is really a basket. So Su Yunshuang twitched the corner of his mouth and healed the Chitu.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with the Chitu. After all, it is also a Chitu, and Su Yunshuang can't bear to fight it. Therefore, although the Chitu is injured, it is only temporarily unable to fight again. The negative internal force is resolved, and after raising it carefully for a period of time, it is not a problem for the red rabbit to return to its original state.
Now that Lu Bu, a peerless general, is paired with a unparalleled horse like Chitu, it is really like a tiger with wings added.
But probably the value of force is too high, even if we fight all the way here, Lu Bu is not happy at all: "Why doesn't the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army have a decent character?"
The corners of Su Yunshuang's mouth twitched: "What do you say looks good, what does it look like?"
"At least you can go to dozens of rounds with me, right?" Lu Bu said this very naturally.
But Su Yunshuang just wants to say, if there are people among them who can go under your hands for dozens of rounds, it won't be just bandits for so many years and can't be the lord of a place.
The distribution of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou is very chaotic, or completely disorganized and undisciplined. Although such opponents are easy to fight, it takes time, and they must be fought wave after wave.
Until one day the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans didn't know what to do, they went directly to the door to ask for surrender, and expressed their willingness to surrender to Cao Cao, and were incorporated by Cao Cao.
But Guo Jia just sneered at the yellow scarves who came to vote all the way: "Why surrender? You really came to surrender? It's just because my lord is powerful now, so I want to lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade. I really think everyone else Is it a fool who can't see your intentions?"
When Lu Bu heard it, he immediately applauded: "Fight, fight, how can you not fight like this!"
He was worried that the war would end too soon and he would return to the days without fighting.
After the envoys of the Yellow Turbans left, Guo Jia asked Lv Bu to let go of the fight. Lv Bu's combat power was simply inhuman. The Yellow Turbans who fought him repeatedly sent people to sue for peace. It was not until the fourth time that Guo Jia finally agreed to stop.
"I have already sent a letter to Zilongyuan to let Miaocai and the others. This time we can stop together. The Qingzhou Yellow Turbans are already frightened, so there is no need to fight anymore."
Guo Jia knew this group of Yellow Turbans too well. They were soldiers rather than bandits. If they were not completely convinced and fearful, even if they were recruited, they would not be usable. became a gang of official robbers
