Once Yuan Shao dies, the huge Hebei will no longer be a whole, and there will be no more opponents of his old Cao. As for Yuan Shao's two sons, Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan, in Cao Cao's view, they are nothing more than chickens and dogs. Tao Qian's two sons are both good-for-nothings, otherwise Tao Qian would not have given up Xuzhou's great cause. In this way, Hebei will fall into his hands, Cao Cao, thinking of this, Cao Cao couldn't help laughing.
"I don't know Mr. Guo, do you think what Xu You said is right?" Cao Cao was laughing over there, while Xu You began to target Guo Jia who was on the side again.
Guo Jia was taken aback for a moment. He had been taking a break just now. Guo Jia is a prodigal son. He would never think about problems when he could take a break. The happiest Xu You came to Cao Jun was Lao Cao. The second happy person is probably Guo Jia, because someone can help Guo Jia share the burden, and he, Guo Jia, can have more time to go to the wind and snow, to drink fine wine, so he is naturally very happy, but he didn't expect that Xu You would He turned his target to himself, "Hehe, what Mr. Ziyuan said is true!" Guo Jia slapped a haha and wanted to uncover this paragraph.
But obviously Xu You didn't want to let him go. Xu You came to Cao Cao's command because he had no future with Yuan Shao. After killing Xu You, Xu You naturally would not stay any longer, so he came to Cao Cao. Xu You was in Yuan Shao's army, and in Yuan Shao's eyes, he might be just a dispensable role. Greedy but didn't want to join the battle between the two brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang. Naturally, they were not tolerated by the two brothers. Now that he has come under Cao Cao's command, Xu You is very proud of his talent. He and Cao Cao are good friends again. Naturally, I want to be the number one under Cao Cao's command. But now that Guo Jia is the number one under Cao Cao and the military adviser of the army, Xu You will naturally point the finger at Guo Jia. "You still have a lot of shortcomings. I wonder if the military division can solve your doubts!"
"Mr. Ziyuan has done a good job, and Jia has no other opinions!" Guo Jia is a lazy person, so he is too lazy to compete with Xu You and Xu Ziyuan for the number one civil servant. Cheng Yu and Guo Jia It was done, but Guo Jia ignored it. If you want it, you can take it. He longs for a little leisure time. Naturally, if he has something to do, he can teach Cheng Yu to do it. Cheng Yu can't stand Guo Jia's casual attitude, so he keeps making things difficult for Guo Jia. And Guo Jia! Only when he couldn't bear it, he would fight back, and every counterattack could make Cheng Yu unable to get down.
"Hehe, Guo Junshi has won the award!" Xu You looked at Guo Jia very proudly. He just wanted to show in front of others that he was better than Guo Jia. The most important thing is to tell Lao Cao in front of Cao Cao that he is better than Guo Jia. Let Lao Cao take Guo Jia out of trouble and make himself a military adviser!
But Xu You didn't understand Cao Cao anymore. It should be said that he didn't understand the current Cao Cao. Cao Cao was no longer the original Cao A. Now he is not only Cao Cao but also a generation of heroes, and he is about to be the overlord of Hebei.
What Xu You still doesn't understand is Guo Jia. Guo Jia doesn't like to fight with others at all. On the surface, Xu You seems to suppress Guo Jia, but those who have stayed in Cao Cao's barracks for a long time will know it. Guo Jia's non-dispute is actually a great contention. If you fight with a person who does not contend, other people's retreat and your aggressiveness are so disgusting. Lao Cao frowned and watched Xu You's performance. I know why a revulsion arises. Xu You is not Guo Jia. Guo Jia can be very casual with Cao Cao, and even make friends with Cao Cao. That's because Cao Cao knows that Guo Jia is a prodigal son. This person will not show off in front of others, but Xu You is different. Although Xu You is very resourceful, he is very greedy for money. His greed has reached a certain level. If he is too greedy, he will be tried He was caught by the rationing, which led to Xu You's defection. This person took Cao Cao's politeness to him as admiration. Of course, Lao Cao would not say much when he used him. Once it was useless, or redundant, then Xu You It's really miserable.
It was useless for Xu You to feel Cao Cao's resentment, but Guo Jia's indisputableness was regarded by him as a kind of retreat or a feeling of resignation, which made him feel that his path to becoming the first person under Cao Cao's command was over. It's not far away, so Xu You let Guo Jia go.
And Cao Cao also asked another question for the good feeling of Xu You's continuation, "Feng Xiao, has the food and grass for Shouchun been delivered?!" Cao Cao's words made Xu You stunned, Shouchun? Shouchun is in Yangzhou. Now if Xu You remembers correctly, it should be Lu Bu's territory. Lu Bu and Cao Cao used to be mortal enemies. Why is he transporting grain and grass there? This is what he remembers. After taking Wuchao some time ago, Cao Cao got a total of more than 200,000 grain and grass, but Lao Cao took out half of the 100,000 shi from it and transported it away. Xu You thought that the 100,000 stones were sent to Xudu, but now he found out that he was wrong, and it was a big mistake. It was sent to Shouchun.
"Report to my lord! It has already been sent!" Guo Jia said to Cao Cao, clasping his fists. If it was in private, Guo Jia would have been drinking and murmuring that he would have sent it over. This is Cao Cao's favorite counselor.
"Okay, that's good, that's good!" Cao Cao nodded, and the first thing he thought of when he got the grain and grass was Shouchun.
"Ah! I don't know why you give away hundreds of thousands of food and grass for nothing! And it's Shouchun, which belongs to Lu Bu?!" Xu You was very puzzled, you said your Hundreds of thousands of grain and grass are worth a lot, and your own expenses are barely enough, but you pay one hundred thousand when you make a move. Which big prince can afford such a gift. "Could it be that this was done by the military adviser?!" Xu You glanced at Guo Jia. Guo Jiaping was shot for no reason, and Xu You thought he was a prodigal son.
"Haha, Ziyuan, Ziyuan, you don't know this! My 100,000 grain and grass are not loose for nothing!" Cao Cao said with a smile, stroking his beard. "These hundreds of thousands of food and grass people have already paid a normal price!"
"This reconciliation?!" Xu You asked in confusion.
"Feng Xiao, explain to Ziyuan!" Cao Cao directly named Guo Jia, hoping to use Guo Jia's name to hurt Xu You and Xu Ziyuan. It means that you, Xu You, think you are resourceful! But you didn't even think of that. What face is there to call yourself
"My lord!?" Guo Jia was taken aback. He looked at Cao Cao's eyes, how could he not know Cao Cao's thoughts? They have worked together for so many years, and they have already figured out Cao Cao's intentions. Jia didn't want to slap Xu You in the face at all! In other words, Guo Jia didn't want to offend Xu You. There was no need for it. Cheng Yu had already annoyed Guo Jia, and adding Xu You made it difficult for people to live. But Cao Cao personally ordered Guo Jia, and Guo Jia had no choice but to stand up.
"Mr. Ziyuan, you don't know something!" Guo Jia said to Xu You, "My lord said that Lu Bu had already paid for the food and grass, and one of them was the battle of Guandu!" Guo Jia said and watched the stage He glanced at Cao Cao in front of him, that kind of look was a gesture of letting me go, because he knew that Xu You was really going to beat him up when he said the following words. But Cao Cao didn't seem to see it, leaving Guo Jia speechless. I can only catch the ducks and put them on the shelves.
"Mr. Ziyuan, this is the so-called normal price already paid!" Since it's hard to refuse, let's slap him in the face! Anyway, this Xu You and Guo Jia looked very uncomfortable, although Cheng Yu was against Guo Jia everywhere. But Cheng Yu is an old stubborn, although this old stubborn is stubborn. But there are also many places that are for the good of Guo Jia. For example, when drinking, Guo Jia’s body is very weak. Drinking is only bad for him and not good. Just go and change it, but this Xu You is different, he wants to step on his own head, Guo Jia doesn't care about him because he doesn't want to, and he doesn't want to spend time, but now he is being forced, so it's no wonder Guo Jia Great.
"The Battle of Wuchao is actually half the price that Shouchun's Lu Bujun sent!" Guo Jia threw such a blockbuster out very bluntly. ,
"What?!" Xu You was not calm anymore, because he joined Cao Cao's army, he was so proud, and he was so proud because he thought he had made great contributions! This is so proud! He still remembered that when Cao Cao heard that he was coming, he walked out to greet him happily, and said happily: "Ziyuan is here, great things can be accomplished!" Then he invited himself to sit down and talk. Xu You asked, "How long will your army's rations last?" Cao Cao replied, "It can last for a year." Xu You said again, "How can there be so much? Seriously!" Cao Cao replied, "It can last for half a year." Xu You said, "Don't you want to defeat Yuan Shao? Why don't you tell the truth?" Cao Cao said, "I'm just joking with you. In fact, there is only this month's ration left." Xu You offered a plan and said, "Today Mengde is alone. , There is no reinforcements, no food, this is a critical survival. Now Yuan Jun has food stored in Wuchao, although there are soldiers, but there is no defense, as long as light soldiers are sent to attack Wuchao and burn its food and grass, within three days, Yuan Jun himself Defeated!"
Such a big credit, now this Guo Jia is saying that this is Shouchun Lu Bu's strategy, you have to tell a decent lie even if you lie!
"Hehe, I don't know where you offended the military adviser, let the military adviser have such opinions on Xu You, and even Xu You's credit has become someone else's!" Xu You was a little unconvinced, and said very coldly. Coming here is nothing more than Guo Jia suppressing himself, because he can't understand that he is better than him!
"Hey!" Guo Jia shook his head with a wry smile. This villain seems to have settled down, okay, okay, since you've done it, then hit it louder, "Mr. Ziyuan, I can tell you, Wu This place, Nest, was told to us by Shu Wang Liu Mang when you were still serving as a counselor under Yuan Benchu's command! It's just that at that time, my lord and I were not sure, and Mr. Ziyuan's arrival made us understand this time The attack has only increased trust!" What Guo Jia meant was that we already knew about your raid on Wuchao, and your appearance just made us more certain, and the real credit is not yours at all.
"Hehe, military teacher, do you think Ziyuan will believe it! Before the Guandu confrontation, why didn't the military teacher say that there are people in this world who have learned five hundred years at the top and five hundred years at the bottom!" It is just a legend, Even top-notch strategists like them make mistakes, how could there be a person who has thought of the flaws before the battle.
"Mr. Ziyuan, I actually don't want to believe it, but you can ask the colleagues below, and you can also ask the lord!" Guo Jia waved his hand and said, this Xu You and Xu Ziyuan seemed to be afraid that he would not be ashamed enough. Don't even have to get to the bottom of it. Cao Cao gave Xu You a lot of rewards after Wuchao was taken down. These rewards are not worthy of Xu You's credit at all.
"Yes, yes, Wuchao is indeed the one I knew before I waited!" A bunch of counselors below, as well as several of Lao Cao's confidants and generals, nodded, but Xu You didn't believe it. He thought these people were all He was jealous of him, or it was because of the position of Guo Jia's military division that he said this. He also listened to what Cao Cao said. Cao Cao didn't give up when he saw Xu You. There was only a slap in the face.
"Ziyuan, don't be discouraged. This King of Shu is very human. What he can think of, even Feng Xiao and the others can't think of it!" Lao Cao seemed to be consoling on the surface, but in fact he was making up for the knife. Let me tell you, Xu You, you should not compare yourself with others, in fact, you are just a suggestion, you are just a soup eater!
"This, this, this!" Xu You didn't want to believe it. But Cao Cao didn't look like he was telling a lie, Xu You could only grit his teeth and snorted coldly. He was always proud, and he kept doing meritorious deeds because he thought that without him, Xu You wouldn't be what Lao Cao is now. Achievement, if there is no Xu You, maybe the current Lao Cao should have fled desperately, and even died of serious injuries like Yuan Shao. Lao Cao was driven out of Yanzhou by Yuan Shao long ago. I am so smug! But now someone told him that all this has nothing to do with you, you are just one of the supporting roles, this kind of supporting role thinks that he is the protagonist, it really makes Xu You feel ashamed.
"Shu King Liu Mang, Shu King Liu Mang! I want to see what kind of person you really are!" Xu You gritted his teeth secretly, Liu Mang didn't know that he had offended such a first-rate counselor unintentionally, Xu You He had no face to stay in the tent, so he said a headache to Cao Cao and left.
Xu You left, and the strategy of Yecheng came out. Cao Cao waved his hand and told these generals to leave to prepare to take Hebei, leaving Guo Jia alone.
Everyone said their goodbyes and left, only Guo Jia was left. Seeing that there was no one else, Cao Cao no longer had to hold back and burst out laughing. Fortunately, Xu You was far away from that laughter, otherwise Xu You would regret it later He joined Cao Cao's army.
"My lord, my lord! You're making Feng Xiao miserable!" Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao and smiled, and he laughed too, but his smile was a wry smile, because today he became this enemy, so maybe With You's character, there should be no possibility of reconciliation with Guo Jia, and Cao Cao used it as a knife. Even if Guo Jia saw it, he refused unreasonably.
"Feng Xiao, Feng Xiao, don't get cheap and act good. Don't you really want to see Xu You's black face? I don't believe it. Aren't you smiling all the time?!" Cao Cao also teased Guo Jia, Don't tell me, after Cao Cao said this, Guo Jia recalled that Xu You's face was first a normal yellow color, then a proud color, and the look of who else I am is annoying, it's hard Then there is that kind of flushed red expression that is shameful and angry, and then it is purple and black, that is disbelief, impossible, and finally it is directly pale, which is an embarrassing expression. Thinking of this, Guo Jia couldn't help showing a smile on his face.
"My lord, my lord, no matter how you say it, I won't leave if I don't make it up to me!" Guo Jia was regarded as a knife by Cao Cao anyway, although this knife was very cool, and Guo Jia was also very happy. Excited, but being calculated is being calculated, so although Guo Jia will not be angry, he will naturally blackmail Cao Cao.
"How about a jar of aged Dukang wine!" Cao Cao stretched out a finger and said.
"Yitan hehe, my lord, I can't walk anymore!" Guo Jia didn't directly say if it's okay, but directly said that I can't walk anymore, which means I can't go anymore, what do you think? Cao Cao shook his head with a wry smile, "Two altars are always fine!"
Guo Jia didn't answer, but told Cao Cao with actions, and he did it directly on the couch next to Cao Cao, short of taking off his shoes and resting.
"Three altars, three altars are not enough!" Cao Cao stretched out another finger, but it was obvious that Guo Jia was still dissatisfied. "Okay, Feng Xiao, tell me how many altars you want!"
"Hehe! My lord, don't be like this, what do you mean I want a few jars, this is your compensation for me!" Guo Jia stretched out both hands as he said.
One hand with five fingers is five altars, and one hand is ten fingers and ten altars. "Don't talk, don't talk, ten jars? You sleep with me!" Cao Cao also played a rogue, this aged Dukang is not an ordinary drink. He, Lao Cao, just got some ten altars from the homes of those gentry, which are basically all his drinks.
"Cut!" Guo Jia gave Cao Cao a disdainful look. Just sleep and sleep! Others don't know Cao Cao. How could he, Guo Jia, not understand? What is Cao Cao good about? The first is power, the second is writing, and the third is lust! Good power, the current Cao Cao is Sikong under the command of Emperor Han, who is under one man and more than ten thousand. In fact, except that Emperor Han can command him in name, Emperor Han is actually looking at Cao Cao's face. Good writing, Lao Cao is the head of the seven sons of Jian'an, his diction is really good, but the article is not something that you can enjoy, the article is naturally a skillful hand, and the rest of the lecherous, hehe, this is a man's Normal, but Cao Cao magnified this a bit. It has been several months since the Battle of Guandu. In the past few months, Lao Cao couldn't even sleep well, and his expression was in a kind of tension. Not to mention women, I can't sleep well, but now it's different, he won the battle of Guandu, and after analyzing it just now, Yuan Shao, his land, is about to die. Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, if they are united, they can make Cao Cao a headache for a while, but the two will be harmonious! Obviously, fire and water are incompatible, so the overall situation in Hebei is settled. Cao Cao is the overlord in the north. Now that he has won Chaoge, he should take a rest. This old Cao's lust is slowly getting up , I have been holding back for a few months, of course I have to release it, how could Guo Jia not see it! Naturally, there are people who prepare beautiful women for Lao Cao in this Chaoge.
If he stays in the camp, this old Cao can't block Guo Jia's face and make a fool of himself!
Guo Jia directly took Cao Cao's seven-inch vital point, and Cao Cao would naturally compromise, "My good Fengxiao, my good Guo Jia, the seven altars, just the altar, there is no more."
"Qitan?!" Guo Jia licked his lips. He continued to watch Cao Cao without speaking, playing psychological tactics. These strategists are best at it.
"If you want more, then you can sleep here!" Cao Cao was also helpless. He had ten altars of aged Dukang in total. I don't know where Guo Jia learned about it. Giving seven altars is already the limit. , but at the celebration banquet, Cao Cao had to entertain him with fine wine! He, Cao Cao, had no choice but to play with Guo Jia.
"Okay, the seven altars are the seven altars!" Guo Jia said on the surface, with a very regretful expression, but he was already happy in his heart. His bottom line was only half of the five altars. Just now he stretched out ten The finger is to remind Lao Cao that he knows that you have ten jars of fine wine in your hand, but Lao Cao thinks that you want ten jars, and there are two extra jars of fine wine for no reason, how could Guo Jia be unhappy. This kind of smile from the heart can't be hidden. Cao Cao caught him at once. Cao Cao knew that he had been fooled by Guo Jia's psychological tactics. You're all plotting!" Although Cao Cao gritted his teeth, the water that was spilled out of what he said had to be sent to Guo Jia by the sergeant.
"Okay, Feng Xiao, let's talk about something serious. What is Lu Bujun going to do for the rest of the food and grass?" Cao Cao asked Guo Jia, although Lao Cao didn't blink his eyes for the grain and grass of 100,000 shi. One hundred thousand shi, what a tax, but Lao Cao had no choice but to transfer it out. He Cao Cao is not a kind person. For Shu Wang Liu With a reckless sentence, will he really give food? Just kidding! In the original official history, Xu You mentioned Wuchao, but what did Lao Cao do to Xu You, and he didn't kill Xu You in the end. What is a villain? What can be called these two words have one thing in common, that is thick-skinned, only thick-skinned, this can get along in troubled times, Lao Cao used the guise of Emperor Han, and then took the emperor to order the princes, and As for Liu Bei, he was buying people's hearts under the guise of loyalty. If Lao Cao was really a loyal minister, why did he finally replace Han with him? If Liu Bei is the emperor's uncle and a loyal minister, then why did Liu Bei proclaim himself emperor directly in Chengdu instead of sending his army to the Northern Expedition after the Emperor Han was forced to abdicate by Cao Pi!
Therefore, none of these people can really speak correctly, they are all duplicity characters, and the gentleman has already died in the grave.
Lao Cao gave Lu Bu food and grass, and funded Shouchun. Do you really think he is a kind person? He was guarding against Liu Bei. Although his Lao Cao took Guandu, it will take a long time to truly pacify Hebei. He now has a total of 100,000 troops in his hands. It is not enough to guard against the Central Plains in Yanzhou and Xuzhou. He will not know who Liu Bei is. This time, the three families besieged Lu Bu with the intention of destroying Lu Bu, so that Sun Ce can wholeheartedly fight against Liu Biao in Jingzhou and win Jingzhou. Liu Bei It will be able to remove the last enemy in the Central Plains, occupy Yangzhou and Yuzhou after the disaster, and even attack Xuzhou, Yanzhou and Zhili. He didn't want to look back after he took down Hebei, and there was a Central Plains overlord in the Central Plains, when would it be like that! So Lao Cao can't let Lu Bu's army be wiped out, at least not now. He wants Lu Bu's army to delay Liu Bei's and Sun Ce's troops, so that the Central Plains is a piece of loose sand instead of a hard board, and Lao Cao himself doesn't have enough soldiers and horses. If you can't directly send troops to help, you can only rely on food and grass. He knows that there are millions of people in Shouchun, and what is lacking is food and grass, so Lao Cao sent a sum of 100,000 grain and grass to the opposite side of the Huaihe River, the government of Yangzhou Shouchun to go.
"My lord, I have already sent someone to go! I believe that Lu Bu will not refuse!" Cao Cao and Guo Jia's 100,000 shi horses of grain and grass are not only to keep the Central Plains scattered, but also to get the sharp weapon bed crossbow , this thing, although Lao Cao didn't come out of Lu Bu's army, but a simple version made by Liu Ye, but this made Lao Cao happy to the extreme, and also showed Lao Cao the power of this bed crossbow, water In the battle of war, Lao Cao relied on 30,000 ordinary sailors to take down Yuan Shao's 100,000 sailors. Although the sailors on both sides were half-baked, the ratio of battle losses surprised Cao. The scene where the enemy couldn't touch him and was finally beaten by him, Lao Cao would never forget it for the rest of his life. If Lao Cao's bed crossbow could only shoot two, the whole army might not be wiped out, that's because of the bed crossbow's arrows It was not enough, and it was broken to join the battle. If the bed crossbow could fire continuously, then maybe there are not only Yuan Shao's 100,000 sailors at the bottom of the Yellow River, but even Yuan Shao himself can be fed bastards!
In the Yangtze River Basin, the bed crossbows there are the kind of bed crossbows that Lao Cao is worried about, and if Lao Cao encounters them, he will be unlucky! Bed crossbows can not only be used for water battles on warships, but also can be used to defend the city, so Lao Cao is eager to get those bed crossbows. Lu Bujun did not sell them before, and Jiangdong Sun Ce and Jingzhou Liu Biao were more defensive against Lao Cao. Like guarding against bandits, they held the bed crossbow tightly in their hands, and even tacitly agreed that after the battle, everyone sent water ghosts down the Yangtze River to collect the bed crossbows one by one. In this way, Cao Cao couldn't get the method of making the bed crossbow at all, and now he can only turn to Lu Bujun for help.
Everyone said that icing on the cake is worse than giving charcoal in the snow. Under the predicament of Lu Bujun in Shouchun, Yangzhou, Cao Cao sent a hundred thousand shi of grain and grass while being besieged by three families. This was real charcoal in the snow. He did not believe it. Lu Bujun, Shouchun and Lujiang will not be moved, as long as they are given the manufacturing method of bed crossbows, he will earn money, and may even use these bed crossbows to help him speed up the unification of the whole of Hebei! (To be continued..)
PS: I will go! It seems that there are 10,000 words short! I wipe!
