Of course, it is naturally impossible for Guo Tu to tell the real reason. Could it be that he wants to tell Yuan Shao that because he supports Yuan Tan's lineage, and the trial is to support Yuan Shang's line, if he asks the trial to go to Qingzhou to aid Yuan Tan, it will stumble Yuan Tan if he doesn't make the trial. If this reason is said, I'm afraid that Yuan Shao will kill him directly, and before Lao Tzu has burped, you bastards will start to row the mountain, isn't this not taking him Yuan Shao in his eyes?

As for Zhang He, the same reason, the bad relationship between Guo Tu and Zhang He is basically on the surface, and they know each other, how can Guo Tu give Zhang He the opportunity to obtain military merits, so as to suppress himself.

Perhaps in a hurry, Guo Tu's mind turned sharply, and he quickly came up with a way to deal with it, and hurriedly said: "Lord, don't be quick and resourceful, and be good at scheming." However, the battle of Qingzhou needs to be dealt with steadily, not risky, but not the most suitable candidate, to say that the most suitable person, should be frustrated. Frustrated has always been steady, not arrogant or impatient, and it is just right to deal with Cao Cao's aggression. ”

"That makes sense!"

Yuan Shao's expression eased slightly, and he felt that what Guo Tu said seemed to be quite reasonable, so he didn't get angry.

Seeing that Yuan Shao seemed to have accepted his suggestion, Guo Tu was overjoyed and secretly proud. The reason why Guo Tu recommended Fu Zhu was because Fu Zhu was a neutral party, and he did not serve Yuan Tan, nor did he serve Yuan Shang. Therefore, Guo Tu does not have to worry that the frustration will stumble on Yuan Tan, lest any mistakes in Qingzhou affect Yuan Tan; second, the power of the frustration is too great, not to mention that Yuan Shao handed over all the affairs of Jizhou to the supervisor of the frustration, and even the army is the supervisor of the frustration, which means that the frustration is the one with the greatest power in Jizhou besides Yuan Shao. And this time, taking advantage of Yuan Chang and Cao Cao's invasion of Jizhou, the frustration was transferred from the center, and it was obvious that this time the war would definitely not end in a short time, so that he would have the opportunity to seize part of the frustrated rights, and the other rights did not matter, but the rights of the army must be intervened. In this way, with the rights of the army, it can provide assistance for Yuan Tan to seize the right to inherit.

In history, Guo Tu was in the battle of Guandu before the speech, the frustration of the military power to divide into three, frustration, Guo Tu, Feng Ji three people each in charge of an army, it is for this reason, in the later Guandu defeat, Yuan Shao died, Feng Ji, the trial of the two can be corrected to support Yuan Shang as the lord of Jizhou, the same Yuan Tan is also in Guo Tu, Xin Ping support, the division of one side and Yuan Shang equal. Of course, it was also because of this that Cao Cao was able to easily defeat the two brothers and finally dominate the north. I have to say that Yuan Shao's defeat was so swift and related to the struggle between the factions under his command.

The problem of trial and matching has been solved, and at the same time, Guo Tu is very satisfied. However, the problem of Zhang Jaw also needs to be solved, and now that he has the confidence, he said unhurriedly: "Lord, General Zhang Jaw is good at lining up the camp, and is good at using the terrain to deal with the enemy, although he is suitable for defending the city, he is not the best candidate, and his subordinates think that General Yan Liang is more suitable than General Zhang Jaw." ”

"Hmm..."

Yuan Shao groaned and nodded slightly. Wen Chou and Yan Liang are the two generals he values the most, both of them are brave and incomparable generals, one is good at attacking, one is good at defending, of course, Wen Chou and Yan Liang are good at attacking and defending only relatively, if you talk about defending the city, it is naturally the most suitable to open your jaw. However, how could Guo Tu let Zhang Jaw get this credit, even if it was black, he would be said to be white, so that Zhang Jaw would not have the slightest chance.

"General Yan Liang's ability to defend the city is also known, how could he have allowed the enemy to take advantage of the slightest? Moreover, although the main thing in this battle of Qingzhou is to defend the city, Cao Cao cannot let Cao Cao underestimate my Jizhou soldiers, and he must also find an opportunity to play the prestige of my Jizhou. In terms of fame, how could General Zhang Jaw be on a par with General Yan Liang? Therefore, his subordinates thought that General Yan Liang was the best candidate. ”

"Not bad!"

Yuan Shao also approved Guo Tu's proposal, after all, Wen Chou and Yan Liang were his confidants, and he was naturally more willing to let his henchmen appear, and Guo Tu also gave him enough reasons, how could he object. So, Yuan Shao waved his hand and said with a final word: "In this way, Yan Liang and Fu will go to Qingzhou to help Wu'er defend Qingzhou, and at the same time, we must also play the prestige of my Jizhou, and don't let Cao Cao underestimate my Jizhou no one." ”

"Whoa!"

"Yes, my lord!"

After the discussion, the two armies in Yecheng set off towards Huguan and Qingzhou respectively, and the battle was close at hand.

…

Xuzhou, under the Pi Mansion of the Governor's Office

Liu Bei also gathered his subordinates to discuss the current situation, as an ideal imperial uncle, Liu Bei naturally planted meticulous work everywhere, so he knew the news of Yuan Chang and Cao Cao's joint attack on Yuan Shao as soon as possible.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now that the Han family is in decline, the princes claim to be kings in their territories, and they no longer regard my Han family in their eyes. First, there was Yangzhou Yuan Shu who established himself as the emperor, and it was a great rebellion; now, there are Youzhou Yuan Chang, Jizhou Yuan Shao, and Yanzhou Cao Cao attacking each other, so that the lives are miserable and the people are not able to make a living. Prepared to be a clan member of the Han family, but in the face of such a situation, he is helpless, and he is ashamed of his ancestors!"

As he spoke, Liu Bei burst into tears, with a distressed expression.

"Big brother, these rebels and thieves are all punished, as long as the eldest brother gives an order, he and the second brother will lead the troops to kill all these thieves. ”

When Zhang Fei saw Liu Bei's aggrieved look, he immediately shouted angrily.

"The lord is benevolent, worried about the people, and admired by his subordinates. ”

As the only strategist under Liu Bei's command who can handle it now, Chen Deng first praised it vigorously, and then said: "It's just that Xuzhou was slaughtered by Cao Cao before, and it is still recovering, and the strength of Yuan Chang in Youzhou, Yuan Shao in Jizhou and Cao Cao in Yanzhou is not weak, and it is difficult for the lord to fight against it now." However, now that Yuan Chang and Cao Cao are at war with each other, although Yuan Chang and Cao Cao jointly attack Yuan Shao, not to mention whether Yuan Shao will be defeated, even if Yuan Shao is defeated, Yuan Chang and Cao Cao will definitely have contradictions due to the division of forces, and there will be no war. In this way, the lord only needs to watch the fire from the other side, and when they are dead and wounded, he will send a surprise army to recruit them, and the final winner is undoubtedly the lord. Now, Yangzhou Yuan Shu is called the emperor, and the lord can send troops to Yangzhou to take it in the name of Yuan Shu's minister, and then the lord can be invincible. ”

"Oh!"

Liu Bei's eyes lit up, he looked at Chen Deng expectantly, and asked, "Yuanlong, how do you interpret this?"

Chen Deng smiled confidently, his sparkling eyes glanced around, and explained unhurriedly.
