Ragnarok is born

Guo Jia is also from Yingchuan, the two have known each other since they were young, that's why they spoke so easily. Xun Yu, who has always been serious, couldn't help smiling.

Guo Jia rolled his eyes completely regardless of his image, and said casually, "Why, Wen Ruo doesn't believe my judgment?"

"I believe it! Of course I believe it!" Xun Yu nodded resolutely, and asked rhetorically, "If you can't even believe Guo Fengxiao's assertion, what else is there to believe in?"

Xun Yu knew that the thin man next to him was talented in intelligence, and could often analyze inconceivable results keenly from a small piece of news that seemed inconspicuous at all.

That's why he was able to become Cao Cao's army commander who presided over the intelligence system to offer sacrifices, advise Cao Cao, and decide the final fighter.

In this regard, even his own nephew, Xun You, who was Cao Jun's mastermind, could not compare to Guo Jia.

Cao Cao and Guo Jia's friendship between monarchs and ministers has become a typical example in Cao Ying, which is widely circulated and envied by everyone.

Cao Cao governed the army very strictly, but Guo Jia was unrestrained and unrestrained. When there was a conflict between the two, no one expected that Cao Cao was able to break the usual routine and deliberately spared Guo Jia, which made the people of the time admire him endlessly.

As a disciplinary inspector, Chen Qun specially wrote a book for Guo Jia because of his lack of discipline. Cao Cao praised Chen Qun for his meritorious service, but ignored Guo Jia.

He secretly applauded Guo Jiayi for maintaining his old style of life, and said to Chen Qun, "This is an extraordinary person, and it is not appropriate to restrain him with common sense."

Not only Guo Jia is grateful for such a master, but even other people yearn for it after hearing it.

Coupled with Xun Yu, Chen Qun, Zhong Yao, etc. who represented Yingchuan's top aristocratic families took the lead to seek refuge, Cao Cao's subordinates gathered together civil and military forces in a short period of time, and became princes who could fight against Yuan Shao, who was born in four generations and three princes.

Guo Jia curled his lips in disdain, and said without any scruples, "Sun Ce is a man, similar to his father Sun Jian, who likes to fight first."

"If he is the vanguard of the first army, then his behavior can also play a role in encouraging the army; but now that he is the lord of Jiangdong, but he still likes to act like this, then he will definitely be like Sun Jian in the end. died for this reason."

Xun Yu snorted, turned to look at Guo Jia, and asked, "Did Feng Xiao get any news related to Jiang Dongda?"

Guo Jia stretched out his right hand to Xun Yu, and passed the note in his hand to the other party, saying, "Sun Ce killed Xu Gong, the prefect of Wujun."

Xun Yu took the note from Guo Jia, looked carefully, and saw two lines written on it, "Xu Gong Shangzhao, known to Sun Ce, was furious, left the battlefield in Wancheng, and rushed thousands of miles to attack Yuhang, Behead Xu Gong in Yuhang's new prefect's mansion."

Just when Xun Yu was thinking about it, Guo Jia smiled and said, "Although Xu Gong is called the prefect of Wu County, he doesn't have a single soldier under his command."

"It stands to reason that there should be no threat to Sun Ce, but even so, Sun Ce was furious, and the Qing army rushed to Yuhang County to kill Xu Gong."

"Such a person is not reckless, so who else in the world is called reckless?"

Xun Yu pondered for a moment, and then answered, "Sun Wentai is a fierce tiger in the army. He fought bravely and took the lead, so he was finally killed by Liu Jingshan."

"Sun Ce is Sun Wentai's eldest son. It is said that he followed his father in the army when he was less than fourteen years old. Presumably, he inherited the fighting style of that Jiangdong tiger."

"Sure enough, like a father, like a son, even the lord sighed in private, it's hard for a lion to compete!"

Guo Jia laughed, his face was full of sarcasm, but he was helpless, but his strength was weak. At the end of the laugh, he coughed a few times, so he said in embarrassment, "I didn't expect Wen Ruo to tease me so far. You want to say that Sun Ce will end up just like Sun Wentai?" ?”

Xun Yu froze, and directly denied, "This is what you Guo Fengxiao said, don't rely on me!"

Guo Jia smiled faintly, but without answering, stretched out his hand and handed out another note to Xun Yu.

Xun Yu was dumbfounded, lowered his head and continued to look at the second note.

"The Taoist priests in the palace left the palace one after another, in groups of three or five, and went south together. Although their actions were strange, but after checking their traces, they all went to the east of the river."

Seeing this, Xun Yu's heart was shocked suddenly, and he could no longer maintain a calm expression, turning his head to look at Guo Jia.

Guo Jia nodded.

Xun Yu secretly sighed, and asked, "Does my lord know about this?"

Guo Jia couldn't deny it, and asked back, "Naturally, all the secrets are reported to the lord, and then they are distributed to the officials and subordinates in charge."

Xun Yu turned his eyes to the deep palace, showing a puzzled expression.

Your Majesty, what exactly do you want to do?

For Xun Yu, in the recent period, every action of the emperor who lived deep in the palace was incomprehensible.

Although he felt a little inconceivable that Taoist priests from all over the world came to Xuchang under the call of unknown people.

Because of this, I was jealous, thinking that although the emperor Liu Xie was still young, he was like Qin Shihuang and Emperor Xiaowu, who wanted to pursue immortality, so he inexplicably called the Taoist priests from all over the world to enter the palace.

And Cao Cao didn't say a word about this situation, which made Xun Yu even more uneasy. Who knew that just when he was about to speak up, such an accident happened again?

Xun Yu stretched out his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, finally showing a tired expression, and asked Guo Jiadao, "How many of the Taoist priests in the palace have already left?"

Guo Jiadao, "Ten percent of the cases have already gone, and more than seventy percent of them have gone. According to my inference, there are other people secretly planning behind this matter."

"It is estimated that in the end, almost all the Taoist priests gathered in the past few months will leave, and only a few will stay in the palace."

As a representative of the world's top gentry, Xun Yu naturally knew that the Taiping Dao uprising had a lot to do with the late emperor in the palace, so he was not surprised at all that the world's Taoists gathered in Xuchang.

The world is powerful and powerful, and each generation of emperors in this dynasty is just passing the age when they ascend the throne, so it is necessary to recruit all forces to fight against powerful officials and officials.

However, the scholars and tyrants are so powerful that even the two "rebellions of confinement" could not break their control over the government, so the first emperor wanted to collude with the Taipingdao on a whim.

The result can be imagined.

In the end, he did not break the power of the powerful in one fell swoop as the first emperor envisioned. On the contrary, under the attack of the Yellow Turban Army, the majesty of the imperial court was swept away, and the powerful forces everywhere became stronger and larger than before.

And also transformed into a separatist prince.

Fortunately, the first emperor has been dead for many years, otherwise, seeing the current situation in the world, he might be pissed to death again.

His two sons, the young emperor and the current emperor, were murdered after being abolished by Dong Zhuo;

How sad is this?

Xun Yu brushed the note in his hand with his fingertips, thoughts kept popping up in his mind, and said in a deep voice, "If you have any other news about Feng Xiao, just tell us all together."

"Why are you so secretive and not happy at all?"

Sure enough, Guo Jia took out the third note from his bosom, but before handing it to Xun Yu, he said suspiciously, "There are still some strange things about this matter, even I can't be sure. Let me judge whether there is a connection?"

Xun Yu snatched the note from Guo Jia with one hand, narrowed his eyes, and saw a line written on it, "Sun Ce's younger sister, suspected of being disgusted by others, has been in a coma for nearly ten days without waking up!"

Xun Yu thought for a long time, but still got nothing, so he shook his head and said, "I remember Sun Wentai's youngest daughter, who is less than nine years old this year?"

"Such a child, far from being an adult, still has the possibility of dying?"

In the end, even he himself couldn't believe it, and his tone became a little hesitant.

Guo Jia looked serious, and said in a low voice, "Wen Ruo, do you still remember that Taiping Taoist Yu Ji preached in Jiangdong?"

Xun Yu's expression changed drastically when he heard the words, and he immediately thought of what he was most worried about.

Volume 41 Dynasty Warriors Chapter [-]: Servants

For Taoism, a newly established organization, after the disobedience of Taiping Dao, Wu Dou Mi Dao and other sects, the Han Dynasty court was deeply jealous.

The Yellow Turban Army led by the three brothers Zhang Jiao and the Taiping Taoist priests as the backbone dealt the deadliest blow to the Han Dynasty.

In order to protect itself, the central government devolved military power to various places. Since then, the power has been lost, and even the emperor has been reduced to a puppet, who can only be manipulated by others.

The tyrants from all over the country are arrogant, and they have transformed from a local tyrant in the countryside to a warlord that spans a state, or even several states.

On their own territory, they not only have independent military and political power, and regard the imperial court as nothing, but also confront the imperial court in a blatant manner.

This is the situation in the world after the powerful become bigger.

The imperial court appointed Liu Yao as the governor of Yangzhou and wanted to take Yangzhou for his own use, but Yuan Shu sent Sun Ce to attack Jiangdong and expelled Liu Yao; host.

Yuan Shao sits in Jizhou, Qingzhou, Bingzhou, and Youzhou. He chooses the scholars he likes as local officials arbitrarily. He obeys and violates the orders of the imperial court. What is the difference except that he is not the emperor in name?

After the imperial court lost control of the region, the warlords in various regions continued to fight and merge with each other. In the end, there would definitely be a new hero who could eliminate all opponents and reunify the world with his own power.

And at that time, it is also the last moment of the real dynasty change, the collapse of the Han Dynasty.

This is the truth that every person of insight knows well.

It can be said that the source of all this lies in the fact that the first emperor at that time joined forces with Zhang Jiao and others to fight against the gentry.

Xun Yu's mind was spinning quietly, his expression was inexplicable.

Among the top gentry families, there is a saying that there is a great relationship between Taiping Taoist Yu Ji and the three brothers Zhang Jiao.

Otherwise, how could Zhang Jiao become the leader of Taiping Dao, and how could he, with many Taoist priests of Taiping Dao as the main force, set off the Yellow Turban Rebellion?

It's a pity that Taiping Taoist Yu Ji usually hides extremely secretively, so that the world doesn't notice the connection between him and Zhang Jiao.

But everyone buried this seed of doubt deeply in the deepest part of their hearts, waiting to germinate and grow one day.

But now Guo Jia's words made Xun Yu feel that Yu Ji, a Taoist of Taiping in Jiangdong, was finally about to reveal his true colors.

Xun Yu pondered for a long time, but his heart became more and more puzzled, so he asked Guo Jiadao helplessly, "As one of the three great loose immortals in the world, Yu Ji, with his wisdom and knowledge, should know that now is definitely not a good time to start trouble."

"Then what is his real purpose, what is his intention?"

Guo Jia spread his hands and sighed, "I'm not Yu Ji himself, how could I know what he thinks?"

Xun Yu and Guo Jia were full of thoughts, and they felt that the matter was full of fog, and it was impossible to guess Yu Ji's plan.

Although the Yellow Turban Army led by Zhang Jiao's three brothers was aggressive, they were defeated at the first touch under the joint encirclement and suppression of officers, soldiers and local tyrants.

The people gathered by the Yellow Turban Army seem to have a large number of people, several times or even dozens of times that of the official army, but these people are not only untrained and low in combat power, but also have countless old and weak women and children. How can they be the official army? opponent?

Even at the very beginning, they were able to catch the officers and soldiers by surprise and achieve a temporary victory, but in the end they still had to drink their hatred and be defeated.

And when they are defeated, it will be the carnival season for the tyrants everywhere, as well as the officers and soldiers, to reap the fruits of victory.

Among the soldiers who surrendered in the Yellow Turban Army, some of the old, weak, sick and disabled can be taken into their own houses and become their own slaves.

Those who are physically strong can be compiled as soldiers and act as their own private soldiers to increase the strength of the trilogy.

The famous "Qingzhou soldiers" under Cao Cao's command were young and strong selected by him from the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou.

Xun Yu, Guo Jia, and both of them didn't believe it. With Yu Ji's wisdom, it was impossible for him not to think of such an easy problem.

The Yellow Turban Army had already failed, and the rest of the Black Mountain Army and Baibo Army hid in the deep mountains, and occasionally sent troops out to raid, but the situation became more and more difficult.

After one winter, many old, weak, sick and disabled people who are physically weak will no longer see the arrival of spring.

If it is said that Sun Ce's younger sister, Sun Shangxiang, fell into a coma, it was really because of Yu Ji's "sustaining victory".

So why did Yu Ji suddenly act like this?

You must know that Yu Ji has been preaching and healing the people for decades in the Jiangdong area. He has a good reputation among the people and has won the title of "Old Immortal".

Is he working so hard for the purpose of cursing Sun Shangxiang?

There must have been some changes that are difficult for outsiders to understand, and ordinary people can't know it for the time being, so they are at a loss.

Guo Jia's complexion changed, and he shook his head and said, "Our intelligence in Jiangdong cannot be as detailed as in the Central Plains after all."

"And this also involves that the top cultivators in the world may not be able to know the truth of the matter until the truth is revealed."

But Xun Yu felt even more uneasy in his heart, frowned, and muttered, "Taoist priests from all over the world gathered in the Xuchang Palace for no reason, and left for no reason, and rushed to Jiangdong."

"There are weirdness everywhere in it, and it must have a lot to do with Yu Ji's actions in Jiangdong."

"Feng Xiao, we have to guard against..."

Guo Jia shook his head and retorted, "Jiangdong is beyond our reach. Even if we know that Yu Ji is plotting something wrong, there is nothing we can do."

"Maybe Yu Ji has already started to act now, Wen Ruo, we are in Xuchang, waiting for the final news with peace of mind."

**** **** ****

Sun Ce stood in front of the sick bed, staring blankly at Sun Shangxiang's calm face.

After he had a good night's sleep, he was finally relieved of the exhaustion from his desperate journey, and both his body and his spirit returned to the best condition.

He immediately went to Sun Shangxiang's boudoir to check the condition of the younger sister who was loved by everyone in the Sun's mansion.

On the surface, although Sun Shangxiang was unconscious, her breathing was relatively stable, and there was no abnormality.

I just heard from my mother, Mrs. Wu, that some time ago, Sun Shangxiang yelled "no" inexplicably, and it was suspected that she had some terrible nightmare unintentionally.

Sun Ce recalled Zhou Yu's words that Sun Shangxiang's strange illness was likely due to some Taoist or alchemist's strange methods, and thought to himself, could it be that the enemy hiding in the dark stepped up his spellcasting at that time?

The purpose is to make the little sister fall into a more critical situation, and then use it to disturb, is my mind not working?

Thinking of this, Sun Ce felt bitter in his heart.

Although he hated Taipingdao and other Taoist sects, he was still very unfamiliar with their methods.

No one knows how many strange methods of harming people these sects have colluded with the pre-Qin alchemists?

I hope Shangxiang will be safe and sound in the end!

Sun Ce's heart moved, and when he turned his head, he saw a confidant soldier outside the room looking anxious, so he had to apologize to Mrs. Wu, got up and left Sun Shangxiang's boudoir.

Madam Wu looked at Sun Ce's back with a look of uneasiness in her eyes.

Sun Ce brought his soldiers to the front courtyard hall far away from Sun Shangxiang's boudoir, and then asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"
