In late July, Cao Cao had already mobilized all the soldiers and horses around Xuchang into the city, and he was still a little hesitant to retreat or fight.
Yesterday, Cao Cao was fortunate to have a beautiful woman in the back house, and vented the fire in his heart, and learned that Guo Jia was coming, and immediately came to the city gate to greet him.
He took Guo Jia's arm and sat in Guo Jia's carriage, "Fengxiao came from hundreds of miles away, and the boat and car were tiring, which made me worry." ” "If I don't come, my lord's heart will be at peace."
Cao Cao's face showed a little joy, "Those who know me, Feng Xiao'er." ” Walking to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Guo Jia was supported by Cao Cao and a waiter, "My lord, and summon Wen Ruo, Gong Da, and Wen He to come." ” Cao Cao bowed slightly, and immediately a sergeant went out and summoned three strategists.
The three of them entered one after another, and raised their hands towards Cao Cao, "Meet the lord." ” "Take your seats, everybody."
"Whoa."
After several people sat down, they glanced at Guo Jia one after another.
Xun Yu: "Fengxiao's body is better" "With Lao Shangshu's order, there is no big problem."
Guo Jia raised his hand and said.
"Fengxiao is here because of the matter of Xuchang."
Xun Yu said again.
"Shang Shuling's previous words, I have discussed it with the lord once, I don't know what the lord means now" Guo Jia turned his eyes and looked at Cao Cao who was seated.
"If I take the Son of Heaven to retreat to Chenliu, what should I do?"
Cao Cao asked instead of answering.
"Dong Zhuo took the Son of Heaven to burn Luoyang and retreated to Chang'an, how to end up" Xun You, who was seated down, did not raise his head and said silently.
Cao Cao was speechless, and then heard Jia Xu speak, "The lord is not the traitor Dong Zhuo, although our army was defeated in this battle, but there is still the power to fight, a few days ago, the edict of the lord has been conveyed to the princes of Guanzhong, Ma Teng, Han Sui's generation is still chaotic, unable to rush to the aid of Sun Quan, Gao Gan has sent troops to attack Shangjun, his subordinates think that our army can evacuate Xuchang, retreat to Changshe, in addition, order a general to capture the Chen State that is unguarded at the moment, thinking that our army is flank, according to the land of the two counties, can protect Yuzhou, do not lose, and Xuchang can provoke the dispute between the two Liu, when the time comes, Our army can go north with all its strength to meet Sun Quan. ” Cao Cao squinted, and secretly scolded the old fox in his heart, this guy didn't mention the Son of Heaven in his speech, and obviously wanted to keep his reputation, he didn't break it, and asked softly: "How to provoke the dispute between the two Liu." ” Jia Xu raised his hand, "Only one is Ji'er." ” Several people in the hall were silent, and they heard Cao Cao speak, "Ji will be safe" "First, you can ask the Son of Heaven to draw up an edict and crown Liu Bei as the king of Runan, and use this place to seal the country for him, so as to show his rescue by Liu Bei."
As soon as the words fell, several people in the hall frowned, Guo Jia glanced at Cao Cao vaguely, and secretly sweated for Cao Cao in his heart.
Sure enough, when Cao Cao looked at Jia Xu again, his face was already holding back a little displeasure.
He Cao is still a mere prime minister, and his title is not a county marquis, and the rebellious Liu Bei who was pinned on the fence in the past can be above him "Your Majesty has a lot of offenses, please punish the prime minister."
When Cao Cao was depressed in his heart, he saw Jia Xu take the initiative to get up and solemnly look at him.
Cao Cao felt funny in his heart, "Wen He is not guilty, I just laugh at that Liu Bei, born in the clan, his ancestors did not have a king, but now he has a cheap price." ” "The lord has this thought in his heart, that Wuhou Liu Qi, young and vigorous, his moderation in the land of the four states, sitting in the hands of one or two million people, still under Liu Bei, will definitely be angry, this is a plan to attack the heart."
"There are also well-educated and talented people under this person's account, and they will be able to see through your strategy, and Sima Yi under Liu Bei's account, if he uses soldiers, he must not be bad on this road."
Cao Cao's eyebrows froze, and the implication was that your plan was too superficial, and it was a trick known to passers-by.
"Don't be anxious, this is a policy, I have a plan."
"And it is."
"In the city of Jingzhou, there was a long history of Wang Cang, I don't know if the lord can know this person" Cao Cao's eyebrows furrowed slightly, "This person is the queen of Sikong Wang Chang, when he was in Luoyang in the past, he often walked around the mansion of Cai Jia and others, and he was famous, but his appearance was ugly, and his strategy had nothing to do with this person."
"This person was punished for Liu Cong and Cai's punishment for reporting the Kuai clan, and now he has seized the official position and let him go to the mansion, and my army has learned that he has many complaints in the mansion, and the Kuai clan has a grudge against him, and this person is in a very worrying situation in Xiangyang City."
Cao Cao's eyes narrowed, "The meaning of Wenhe is to win over this person" "The lord can promise him to be the prime minister, give him the marquis of Guan, and in his own letter, he will appreciate him more, and he will definitely be able to persuade this person."
"What happens thereafter" "The lord still remembers that our army once captured and killed a few Wu Wei in Xuchang City" Cao Cao bowed slightly, "It's the time when Mao Xiaoxian's family fled" "Exactly, I can order the army to replace the Wu guard blade, think about it, there are people in Xiangyang City who know it."
Xun You laughed, "Wen He wants to separate the Kuai family, Liu Cong, and Cai's family."
Jia Xu glanced at Xun Yu beside him, "Although Wang Cang is not open-minded, he will not deliberately frame the Kuai clan, think about it, Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue will definitely collude with Jiangdong, and our army only needs to be a little tempted to make Liu Cong's mother and son suspicious."
As for the kings of the Kuai clan, and asked the dog to jump over the wall in a hurry."
Xun Yu stroked his beard with one hand, "If Xiangyang is chaotic, then Lu Meng will take advantage of the situation to go north and seize these cities.
Jia Xu shook his head slightly, "Nayi City is guarded by Huo Jun, the general of Jingzhou, and this person's talent is not weaker than that of the former General Liu Biao.
Although he Lu Meng is like a god with soldiers, and Yicheng is defended, Huo Jun can make it difficult for him to surpass it. ” "When the time comes, if the Kuai clan is executed, but if Wang Cang also dies" Guo Jia endured for a long time, and finally spoke up.
Jia Xu's eyes were a little ruthless, "Willing to give up a Wang Cang, it is enough to blame Liu Xuande, that Kuai Qi has led the land of Fang Ling to secretly surrender to Jiangdong, Kuai Qi takes the daughter of Zhuge clan, if the Kuai brothers die after Liu Bei, Liu Qi will be annoyed, if he does not send troops, I am afraid that it will be difficult to calm Kuai Qi and the Jingzhou Shi clan under his command." ” Cao Cao was silent, he could hear the ruthlessness in Jia Xu's voice, this guy is really so usual to stay out of the matter, protect himself, just when he is in trouble, let him offer advice, but he can talk without being shocking and die endlessly, offering a poisonous plan.
"What do you think, what is this plan" He looked at the few people in the hall in a deep voice, except for Cheng Yu, four of the five major masterminds under his command had gathered together.
Guo Jia raised his hand, "Yes." ” Xun You got up: "Your Majesty seconded the proposal." ” "In Xuchang City, you can leave the soldiers of Tuntian, 500 soldiers, and protect the princes and ministers and the Son of Heaven."
Xun Yu hesitated again and again, raised his hand and said.
"Exactly."
Cao Cao was silent for a moment, and then allowed Xun Yu's advance.
After speaking, Cao Cao glanced at Jia Xu, "Wenhe, this matter will be handed over to you." ” "Whoa."
Jia Xu raised his hand, not sad or happy, his face was full of waves, and there was no fluctuation in his heart
