[Comprehensive + Sword Three] I am your mother!

For Guo Jia, Su Yunshuang's death was a difficult thing to accept, and he hardly remembered how he spent that period of time.

After Su Yunshuang's death, Lu Bu completely parted ways with him.

Thinking of Lu Bu, Guo Jia smiled wryly. He originally thought that Lu Bu would beat him up, and even came to him with a painting halberd to fight for his life, but in fact Lu Bu didn't have any. Lu Bu just looked at him with a cold, sharp but compassionate gaze. After staring at him for a while, he finally didn't say a word.

Lu Bu didn't beat him, but Guo Jia didn't feel good at all. After all, it was because of Su Yunshuang's last words back then. Su Yunshuang said that all of this was God's will, and it should be like this, no one can blame anyone.

But in the eyes of others, this is not the case. Even Guo Jia himself feels that he needs to bear most of the responsibility.

There is nothing more traumatic than for a mother to lose her most beloved son.

Since then, Lu Bu and Guo Jia have been in a situation where they don't know how to say hello when they meet, and the time of fighting in the past seems to have disappeared all of a sudden.

But Guo Jia knew that Lu Bu was already very restrained, and this also made everyone see clearly that Lu Bu was never a simple idiot. Ding Yuan said that he was a wild lone wolf. Looking at it now Come on indeed.

After Cao Cao captured Jingzhou, his next target was Jiangdong Sun Ce.

Liu Biao in Jingzhou was vulnerable, and it was not too difficult for Cao Cao to beat him. Even after beating Liu Biao, Cao Cao was fully capable of going south to capture Jiangdong.

At this time, Gan Ning's military training at sea was very effective, and he had more than [-] elite sailors. Cao Cao did not lack sailors.

But this year, Cao Cao did not go south. Guo Jia, who had been silent in Yanzhou for nearly a year because of Su Yunshuang, returned to Cao Cao's side again, and Guo Jia's first suggestion to Cao Cao was not to fight Jiangdong.

At this time, because of Liu Biao's generous treatment, Liu Bei had more than 2 soldiers and horses under his command, and also had the support of the original Jingzhou clan, the Kuai family. At this time, Liu Bei had become popular.

After Cao Cao destroyed Liu Biao, Liu Bei led more than 2 soldiers and horses to flee to Jiangdong, and formed an alliance with Sun Ce to reject Cao Cao.

At this time, everyone's suggestion to Cao Cao was to attack Jiangdong as soon as possible, and take Jiangdong with Jingzhou's victory in one fell swoop.

But Guo Jia asked Cao Cao: "My lord, who is Sun Ce? Who is Liu Bei?"

Neither of these two is an idiot. How many ups and downs has Liu Bei experienced step by step from a mat weaver to today's growth?

"At this time, the two families of Sun and Liu joined forces. Although our army is leading a great victory, we are not winning the navy. Gan Ning's navy is indeed elite soldiers, but my lord still remembers that when Fengxian just arrived in Dongjun, Bingzhou The fight between the iron cavalry and my Dongjun cavalry?"

In that battle, Lu Bu defeated Cao Cao's 500 men with 2000 men.

Speaking of this, Cao Cao already understood what Guo Jia meant. At this time, his navy was just like the cavalry back then. Although they were well trained, they had never really fought water battles. Gan Ning was the only general, but Gan Ning had only been a water thief on the water before, and small-scale battles were okay. A big battle with tens of thousands of people is no joke, and the rest of Cao Cao's subordinates did not command the water army to fight. experience.

On the other hand, what about the Sun and Liu families?Liu Bei's soldiers and horses come from the original Liu Biao, and both Liu Biao and Sun Ce rely on the navy for their livelihood. To put it bluntly, Cao Cao can indeed beat Liu Biao on land, but if there is a big river between the two families, it will It is not certain what it will look like.

"Even if we don't talk about military strength, if my lord attacks Jiangdong at this time, the Sun and Liu families will definitely unite closely to resist the enemy together."

And if you wait for a while, that's not necessarily the case.

Guo Jia doesn't think that waiting for a while will make the Sun and Liu families much stronger. Now Liu Bei is on Sun Ce's territory, and Sun Ce is not Liu Biao. He will not give Liu Bei a chance to grow in his own territory, let alone Zhou Yu.

After Liu Biao's death, Liu Bei took over Liu Biao's foundation, but Liu Biao's son didn't get much. Who knows if Liu Bei was allowed to grow in Jiangdong, would he turn his back on customers and suppress Sun Ce instead?At that time, will this Jiangdong land still have the surname Sun?

Therefore, Guo Jia concluded that even if Liu Bei stayed in Jiangdong for a year, he would not grow much.

As for Sun Ce, there is no need to worry.

If Cao Cao doesn't fight Jiangdong, Jiangdong will have no external pressure. In this case, the main conflict must be Sun Ce and Liu Bei. Liu Bei is not a simple person. I am afraid that Sun Ce and Zhou Yu will be busy fighting Liu Bei by then, so develop their own energy Naturally there will be less.

Not to mention that they still have Xu Fu around. No matter when they fight Jiangdong, it is actually not too difficult. In this case, it is better to wait until the conflicts between Sun and Liu have accumulated a little more before fighting. It is estimated that the face and the heart are not in harmony.

Cao Cao adopted Guo Jia's suggestion. After he reorganized his troops and left behind the troops who steadfastly defended Jingzhou, he sent the heavy troops back to the rear, and no longer had the tendency of overwhelming the Jiangdong army.

However, Cao Cao quietly replaced many navy troops with his northern land army, and surrendered many navy generals under Liu Biao, so that Gan Ning could train troops in Jingzhou.

This time Cao Cao really saw the way. Liu Biao could suppress Sun Ce for so many years but he couldn't cross the river. Sure enough, his navy was still very good. On the first day of the military exercise, Gan Ning directly lost.

So Cao Cao asked Gan Ning to step up his military training, and at the same time began to attack Jiangdong.

The military does not fight, but other aspects still have to fight. Soon there is news from Cao Cao that because most of Cao's troops are from the north, they are not used to the southern climate, let alone water warfare. Now Cao Cao is training troops. I want to fight Koto.

Sure enough, if Cao Cao didn't come to fight, the Sun and Liu families began to have constant conflicts.

Liu Bei has no territory of his own. The place where he garrisons was allocated to him by Sun Ce, but Sun Ce gave him the territory to fight Cao Cao together. Now that Cao Cao is not coming to fight, Sun Ce is not stupid. He will definitely suppress Liu Bei. Don't give Liu Bei a chance to develop.

→_→Otherwise, wouldn’t it be impossible to get back the allocated land?

Originally, the situation was in Sun Ce's favor. If there was a fight on the battlefield, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Liu Bei's subordinates, would definitely not persuade Sun Ce. You can play other things, Xu Fu, Zhou Yu, whoever comes out can make Liu Bei play around.

Originally, Sun Ce already felt that Liu Bei was not a threat, but at this moment, Liu Bei had someone more under his command, that is, this person asked Xu Fu to meet Sun Ce overnight, and for the first time offered to be on guard against Liu Bei.

Xu Fu is honest and kind most of the time, and he doesn't speak ill of others easily. Even when he dealt with Liu Bei before, it was Zhou Yu who reminded Sun Ce to be careful, but this time, Xu Fu looked nervous and went to see Sun Ce overnight Tell him to be careful with Liu Bei.

There is only one reason.

"My fellow apprentice, now voted for Liu Bei."

In the middle of the night, Sun Ce was already asleep but was forced to wake up. The whole person was in a state of confusion. Hearing Xu Fu's words, Sun Ce was even more puzzled: "How is this person compared to Mr. Zhi?"

"I'm not as good as him."

As soon as Xu Fu's words came out, Sun Ce was completely awake. Zhou Yu said that Xu Fu's talent was rare in the world, but Xu Fu directly said that I was not as good as him to that so-called junior brother.

Seeing that Sun Ce became nervous, Xu Fu continued, "Your Majesty, you should know about Pang Tong, the military advisor under Cao Cao's account, right?"

Of course I know. It can be said that just one Pang Tong changed the situation of the battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao. Fight to fame.

Later, Guo Jia stayed in Yanzhou because of Su Yunshuang's illness, and recommended Pang Tong to replace him. Cao Cao really entrusted Pang Tong with a heavy responsibility, and Pang Tong did not disappoint Cao Cao.

After defeating Yuan Shao first and then Liu Biao, how could Sun Ce not know about Pang Tong's reputation?

So Xu Fu said directly: "Pang Tong and Liu Bei's Zhuge Liang are both my juniors, but later Pang Tong went to vote for Cao Cao, but Zhuge Liang stayed in the academy. I wrote to persuade him to become an official, but he shied away. Said to wait for Mingzhu, now it seems that he is waiting for Liu Bei."

With Pang Tong as the foundation, Sun Ce no longer dared to underestimate Zhuge Liang, who had never even heard of his name before: "Sir, how does this Zhuge Liang compare to Pang Tong?"

"I only know that when I went back to the academy to meet these two, Zhuge Liang was slightly ahead of Pang Tong."

Now Sun Ce was silent, and Pang Tong became famous after defeating Yuan Shao. Before that, Pang Tong was just an ordinary scholar, so even though Zhuge Liang was not well-known before, Sun Ce still placed Zhuge Liang's position very high.

Not to mention that Zhuge Liang is slightly better than Pang Tong, even if he is slightly inferior, it is enough for him to have a headache. Now that Zhuge Liang voted for Liu Bei, then Liu Bei really made him have to guard against him, and he was strictly guarded.

With Xu Fu's words, the relationship between Sun Ce and Liu Bei became tense.

While these two families were having a great time fighting each other, Cao Cao had quietly completed the reorganization of the original Qingzhou navy, absorbing the advantages of Gan Ning's training at sea and the essence of Liu Biao's original Jingzhou navy. , the time to go south has come.

Everyone knows that this battle will determine the future situation of the world, and it will also determine whether Cao Cao can unify the world with the power of unifying the north.

In this battle, if Cao Cao wins, there will be no princes in the world who can fight against Cao Cao, and if Cao Cao loses, he will be unable to go south for at least ten years. Ten years is enough for too many things to happen.

Just because it is a fate-determining battle, both sides have put on their biggest battles. Needless to say, the Sun and Liu families, Cao Cao's chief general Gan Ning, Cao Ren, Zhao Yun and Lu Bu, and Xun You, Guo Jia, and Zhicai Pang Tong are the military advisers accompanying the army. .

Of course, this is just the arrangement of senior generals and military advisers. In fact, Cao Cao also promoted many talents from the Qingzhou Navy and the original Jingzhou Navy. In fact, Cao Cao originally wanted to bring Cai Mao and Zhang Yun to play together, but after testing After a period of time, Guo Jia directly told Cao Cao that the two of them could be raised with good treatment, and that Cao Cao's navy should never be handed over to these two.

Although the ability of these two people to lead a navy is not lacking, Guo Jia commented that these two people are too old to be used.

That's right, Liu Biao just used Cai Mao too much and got hurt all over his face, so Cao Cao followed Guo Jia's advice and learned almost everything in Cai Mao's stomach, and after a period of training, he discovered a batch of After the talent, he decisively replaced Cai Mao.

For Cao Cao, he didn't think that this battle would be so difficult to fight. Now that the land of Sun and Liu is not as big as him, and the soldiers, horses, food and grass are not as big as him, he will never be his opponent. Bar?

But Cao Cao knew he was wrong in the first battle after the war.

In the first battle, Gan Ning encountered the Jiangdong naval army. In terms of the elite and bravery of the soldiers, the two companies are really similar, but Jiangdong's soldiers are more experienced, while Cao Cao's soldiers are more bloody and aggressive. Even if they complement each other, the gap is not clear. How far it was pulled, but the general made Cao Cao suffer a lot.

The leader of Jiangdong is Zhou Yu.

Cao Cao had heard of Zhou Yu’s name before, and Guo Jia had said more than once that Zhou Yu was a man of extraordinary intelligence, but even when Guo Jia and Su Yunshuang went to Jiangdong, what Guo Jia saw the most was Zhou Yu’s ability to make suggestions and handle logistics , I haven't seen Zhou Yu can fight so well!

The first battle between Gan Ning and Zhou Yu ended with a small defeat for Gan Ning.

Hearing the news, everyone sighed.

Zhou Yu was more intelligent than literary, and he made a lot of calculations, and he was a top-notch general when he changed his equipment and went to the battlefield.

"Why does such a person follow Sun Ce so desperately!"

For Zhou Yu, Cao Cao not only has no resentment, he even likes it very much.

Zhou Yu is handsome, talented, both civil and military, and the most important thing is that he has artistic and literary qualities. Cao Cao can't hate such a person.

But the battle is still to be fought.

Cao Cao has no military and political talents like Zhou Yu. Most of Cao Cao’s people here are partial to academics, and the partiality is very serious, so Cao Cao calmed down. Two chant, it is not tiring to fight with civil and martial arts.

And to be honest, everyone in Cao Ying from top to bottom in Zhou Yu's use of the navy can only say one word of convincing, that is really convincing to lose.

So after matching the new combination of generals, Cao Cao calmly trained himself with the Jiangdong Navy.

In the first three months, Cao's army and Jiangdong's army suffered small defeats every time, but Zhou Yu was unable to change his small victories into big victories. It's not easy to get cheap. Besides, Cao Jun always fights every time he can beat it, and retreats calmly if he can't beat it.

Yes, retreat calmly, Zhou Yu has never seen someone who can retreat so calmly! (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

But also because Cao Jun's retreat arrangements were too good, Zhou Yu couldn't catch too many opportunities.

Regarding this, Xu Fu shook his head: "It won't work like this. I'm not blaming Gongjin, but now that we're fighting like this without pain, it can only benefit Cao Cao. Obviously, Cao Cao treats Gongjin as a torturer." Knife Stone, once his knife is sharpened, then we will never have a chance to come back."

Zhou Yu also agreed with Xu Fu's point of view: "Then, what about your opinion?"

Xu Fu stood up and bowed to Sun Ce: "My lord, we can no longer sit still, we must have a big victory to defeat Cao Cao, otherwise..."

Otherwise, they will just sit back and wait.

Cao Cao is invincible as long as he has no losses, but they are different.

Zhou Yu also said: "That's right, what Mr. Yuan Zhi said is right, Bo Fu, we must win a big battle. This battle can be fought and won't be fought, and we must fight at any cost to create opportunities."

Sun Ce was silent for a while, and then said: "Then invite General Liu to discuss how to attack Cao."

Liu Bei used Zhuge Liang as his military advisor, and he would definitely bring Zhuge Liang with him when encountering such a situation. Zhuge Liang had a pretty good relationship with Xu Fu in Jiangdong. Although Xu Fu reminded Sun Ce to be careful of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, he himself He never does anything to damage the relationship between the two families. Xu Fu doesn’t talk much on weekdays. The reason he gave to Zhuge Liang is also very simple. He needs to talk, but as a Jiangdong military division, he can't, so he simply doesn't talk.

Zhuge Liang still respected Xu Fu very much. When discussing attacking Cao this time, Zhuge Liang asked Xu Fu's opinion: "Mr. Yuan Zhi, what do you think of Guo Jia?"

Among all the people here, only Xu Fu had contact with Guo Jia, Cao Cao's top counselor. Zhuge Liang just listened to Guo Jia's class.

Xu Fu thought for a while and said: "Guo Jia is such a talented and intelligent person that he is rare in the world. To put it bluntly, everyone here is inferior to him in terms of clever schemes."

"But now Cao Cao is not only Guo Jia, but also Xun You, Zhicai Pang Tong and others are not inferior to Guo Jia. If we want to plot against Cao Cao, these people should be the biggest resistance."

Cao Cao was not Yuan Shao, and he would lose his head after a few arguments with the counselors under him. Cao Cao himself was also a treacherous and cunning man who was proficient in the art of war.

But Cao Cao's lineup is strong, Jiangdong's side is not weak, Zhou Yu, Xu Fu, and Zhuge Liang can't be underestimated.

So Cao Cao originally thought it would be a good battle, but in the end he fought for more than half a year regardless of the outcome.

That's what he said, but Cao Cao didn't seem to be in a hurry.

In the end, Guo Jia only said one thing to Cao Cao: "It's time for Yuan Zhi to make a move, lest he really think he is from Jiangdong."

Xu Fu tossed them several times, but he didn't hold back at all. Guo Jia was amused when he thought of Cao Ren's pitiful face.

Cao Cao probably thought of the same thing: "It's time for Yuan Zhi to move."

Xu Fu, the key child they planted more than ten years ago, is finally about to play its role.

It should be said that this is the only time that Xu Fu really played a role from beginning to end, but this time is enough.

Just as planned back then, Xu Fu's chess piece is fine if it doesn't move, and it will have a miraculous effect immediately.

Sun and Liu didn't even have time to react, they had already lost, and they didn't even know how they lost until they lost. They only knew that Cao Jun beat the river with a stroke of God's help, and after crossing the river, he said it was Sun However, the territory of the Liu family is actually better than infantry and cavalry, and the two families are tied together, which is not enough for Cao Cao to beat with one hand.

What Cao Cao led was an elite force that was invincible across the north!

It wasn't until Sun Ce and Lu Bu reunited many years later that they fought hundreds of rounds and were finally dismounted by Lu Bu with a halberd. The Battle of Jiangdong officially ended.

Don't ask what Liu Bei did, Liu Bei ran away again_(:3ゝ∠)_

Yes, Cao Cao is particularly frustrated on this issue.

This Liu Bei is too good at running! (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

When fighting Liu Biao, he finally seized the opportunity to strategically shift away, and this time he fought Sun Ce strategically shifted away.

Of course, this was a great victory no matter what, and the capture of Jiangdong represented that Cao Cao's unification of the world had been achieved and was completely unstoppable.

After Cao Cao captured Jiangdong, he did not kill Sun Ce as the outside guessed, he even personally persuaded Sun Ce to surrender.

I have to say that the relationship between Cao Cao and Sun Ce is still very good. Cao Cao first gave Sun Ce a memory of the past, recalling the past when he and Sun Jian attacked Dong Zhuo together, and then regretted that Sun Jian's generation of heroes was killed by traitors.

Speaking of Sun Jian, Sun Ce couldn't help thinking that Cao Cao personally wrote to Liu Biao to ask for Sun Jian's body back then. Sun Ce still remembers the letter Cao Cao wrote to him at that time saying that if Liu Biao refused to return Sun Jian's body, he would be willing to return Sun Jian's body. Supporting Sun Ce's soldiers and horses to seek justice from Liu Biao, and later Cao Cao's attack on Liu Biao was regarded as revenge for Sun Ce.

It can be said that, except for this Jiangdong battle, Cao Cao was very kind to the Sun family, and it can even be said that he was very kind.

Sun Ce is also a man of temperament, and he is an honest child. Cao Cao played with him and persuaded him patiently. He also kept praising Sun Ce and giving Sun Ce a high hat.

Cao Cao was also generous. He immediately asked the emperor to make Sun Ce the Marquis of Wu, and told Sun Ce that most of the personnel in Jiangdong, as long as they are qualified and talented, Cao Cao will keep all of them.

"Don't Mr. Cao fear that I will regret it when I become powerful?"

Cao Cao replied: "Sun Wentai is a hero, I don't believe his son would do such a contradictory thing."

When Cao Cao mentioned Sun Jian, Sun Ce lost his temper. The father and son are indeed very similar.

And after Sun Ce surrendered to Cao Cao, Zhou Yu was naturally brought over with buy one get one free. As a smart person, Zhou Yu naturally had doubts about Cao Cao, but in the end Zhou Yu had to admit that Cao Cao did keep his promise. People and horses are treated equally. For many talented people, he not only retains them, but even reuses them.

Now even Zhou Yu was convinced. Zhou Yu believed that Cao Cao's magnanimity was really rare for ordinary people.

It's just that the only thing Sun Ce and Zhou Yu couldn't figure out this time was why Xu Fu would betray them to help Cao Cao.

Sun Ce didn't resent anyone this time, except for Xu Fu, he couldn't accept it: "Mr. has followed me for more than ten years. During this period, I thought I treated him with courtesy, and I never felt sorry for him. Why did Mr. betray me?" ?”

Sun Ce really devoted himself to Xu Fu. Xu Fu was his first counselor. It was Xu Fu who helped him become independent from Yuan Shu and own his own foundation. It can be said that Xu Fu accompanied him all the way from the most desperate time. Even if Zhou Yu came later, Zhou Yu could not replace Xu Fu's position. Both Sun Ce and Zhou Yu respected Xu Fu very much.

Xu Fu just sighed: "I am grateful to Marquis Wu for his kind treatment, but the word betrayal is too heavy, and I cannot bear it."

As he said that, Xu Fu simply revealed the fact that he was Cao Cao's man from the beginning.

Sun Ce couldn't believe it at all: "Sir, sir, are you saying that you have been Cao Gong's people from the beginning? This, how is this possible?"

At that time, Cao Cao already owned the land of Yanzhou and Qingzhou, and Xuzhou was about to get it, but what about him?He was just a down-and-out man who barely saved his father's foundation under Yuan Shu's hands. It would be unbelievable to say that Cao Cao had put people by his side for Sun Ce from that time on.

Xu Fu simply knelt down in front of Sun Ce: "I have already told Marquis Wu about everything, Marquis Wu will not repay me for my great kindness, but I am even less likely to betray my old master. Now that everything is settled, Wu Hou Dake killed me to relieve my anger."

Saying this, Xu Fu took out his sword and presented it to Sun Ce.

Now Cao Cao was not calm, and he immediately said that he ordered Xu Fu to do everything: "Besides, Yuanzhi has never done anything wrong to Jiangdong except for the last battle for so many years. Credit also comes with hard work..."

Sun Ce looked at Xu Fu who was completely determined to die, and then looked at Cao Cao who was anxious and painstakingly persuaded, and finally threw away Xu Fu's saber: "Sir, I didn't forgive me. I asked him to help me, and he refused. You have really worked hard over the years, Mr.

Except for cheating him in the end, Xu Fu can indeed be said to have a clear conscience, and even the last time he cheated, Xu Fu can't be said to have betrayed Jiang Dong. After all, the difference in strength between Jiang Dong and Cao Cao is clearly there. Sun Ce really couldn't blame Xu Fu for letting a battle that would have failed in the first place be lost more simply.

However, just as Cao Cao settled Xu Fu's matter here, Guo Jia came to Cao Cao over there, and he decided to resign and retire.

"Now my lord's general situation has been decided, and I'm not missing. Please allow me to go back and continue to keep my mother's filial piety."

Guo Jia was dragged by Cao Cao to attack Jiangdong. Now that everything in Jiangdong was settled, Guo Jia was going to leave, even this time he left thoroughly.

"Feng Xiao, why are you here?"

Cao Cao was very reluctant to give up on Guo Jia, but Guo Jia had made up his mind on this matter.
