99. [096] Make it bad
When she heard Cai Yan say that she and Xun You felt that Boss Cao would attack Yuan Shu, Shen Xian was greatly relieved in her heart.
To tell the truth, after fighting for so many years, Shen Xian really feels a little tired, sometimes she can't wait to nest in Yizhou and never come out, just be a governor and mess around, leading her Guanghanhou's generous salary, nothing to tease the little maids in the house, looking at Guo Jia with a tired face but having to sit in front of the table to correct the text in a daze......
Of course, Shen Xian knew that this was impossible, once she set foot on the road to compete for the world, there was absolutely no chance of turning back, she would either kill everyone and finally stand at the top herself, or she would be killed by others and take away her own qiē.
Shen Xian didn't want to be killed.
If she was alone, it would not be impossible to go with the flow, but Shen Xian knew that there were many people and subordinates, family and friends behind her, who followed her, trusted her, and entrusted her with their whole family, future and even life. Carrying such heavy hopes, how could Shen Xian leave it alone?
What's more, Shen Xian has tasted failure, once she sat in front of the computer and watched her territory being carved up piece by piece, and her subordinates left her one by one, and finally she was defeated and caught, and was pushed to the execution ground because she did not surrender...... Although it was just a computer game, although it was only a simulated scene, the moment the executioner raised the knife and fell, Shen Xian let go of the mouse and closed her eyes slightly.
If everything in the game can come true, I absolutely, absolutely don't lose!
Cai Yan only said "possibly" rather than "absolutely", this kind of thing that cannot be 100% sure will not develop until the last moment, no one can say the outcome. Shen Xian made a "please sit" gesture to Cai Yan and Xun You, and at the same time, she asked the maids standing on both sides to retreat and guard the door, and no one was allowed to break in without permission.
"Tell me," Shen Xian said, "How did you come to this conclusion?" ”
Cai Yan sorted out his thoughts and began to explain the reason to Shen Xian.
The general situation is like this: Cao Cao was angry and went to Xuzhou with troops, he took 30,000 people to drive over, the momentum was like a rainbow to connect several cities, and slaughtered a place every time, after slaughtering three cities, he finally met Liu Bei, who hurriedly led the army to resist, and the two stopped the army in Xiapi to confront each other. But before that, Yuan Shu had also attacked Xuzhou, he and Lu Bu had been in a stalemate in Lingbi for a long time and could not go further, he was already very irritable, and then heard that Cao Cao came to Xuzhou to intercept Hu, Yuan Shu was so angry that he jumped three feet high, even if he wrote to Sun Ce to order him not to fight Yangzhou, and hurry back to deal with Cao Cao!
It's a pity that the battle between Sun Ce and Fan Chou was at a critical stage at that time, and there was no time to deal with Yuan Shu at all.
At that time, Yuan Shu was already suspicious of Sun Ce, but he didn't have time to think about it at all, and the most headache for him right now was Lu Bu's army. In fact, withdrawing the army was Yuan Shu's best choice at that time, because the result of his stalemate was also to consume his own grain, grass and rear materials in vain, without the slightest meaning. But Yuan Shu wants to save face, he feels that he is completely inadequate if he comes out and does not defeat Xuzhou, if he withdraws the army in such a gloomy way, how many people will see him laugh?
Yuan Shu did not withdraw the army, Cao Cao did not withdraw the army, he marched into Xuzhou under the banner of revenge, in fact, he still wanted to occupy the territory of Xuzhou, after all, Yuan Shao's power in the north is growing day by day, and he is about to become a hegemon. Originally, Cao Cao was also gradually rising, but Yuan Shao, who was deeply afraid of him from the beginning, led Lu Bu into Yanzhou, coupled with the secret operation of Shen Xian's forces, he directly beat Boss Cao to a half-crippled body, and fought hard to recover Yanzhou. It was this military disaster that made Cao Cao realize that Yuan Shao was about to be unable to tolerate him, and the result of continuing to be silent was only to be swallowed up by Yuan Shao, Cao Cao was not a willing person, he didn't want to be killed by Yuan Shao, so he could only resist.
If you want to resist, you have to grow, and if you want to grow, you have to have territory, and it just so happens that Cao Song's death in Xuzhou is a good excuse to send troops, and it is really a loss not to use it.
Cao Cao went to Xuzhou, in order to make Yuan Shao believe that he really went to take revenge, Xi Zhicai went to Yuan Shao to lobby him, hoping that Yuan Shao could send troops to help. Regardless of whether Yuan Shao will support Cao Cao in the end (or go to pick up the leaks and cut off the beard), at least Xi Zhicai's behavior sent a signal to Yuan Shao - Cao Cao's troops are not enough, and he can't even defeat Xuzhou.
Yuan Shao's vigilance against Cao Cao could be delayed for as long as it wanted, and one more day could provide Cao Cao with a chance to breathe.
But that's all Xi Zhicai can do, after all, not only is he a smart person, but Yuan Shao's subordinates also have people like Fu Zhu, Tian Feng, and Xun Chen, and there are even many more people than Cao Cao's strategists, so many people together can't see Xi Zhicai's thoughts? However, even if they see it, they will not expose Xi Zhicai in a short time.
Because Yuan Shao's strategists have long been fighting to the death in private, no one will take a step back and unite with the outside world. This is also the reason why Xi Zhicai is very relieved to enter Jizhou alone.
In this context, it was imperative for Cao Cao to take Xuzhou, and he had to do so, to accumulate more basics before he and Yuan Shao tore their faces. And there is an advantage to beating Xuzhou - after that, Cao Cao will first have a complete confrontation with Yuan Shu, but Yuan Shu has already torn up with Yuan Shao, there is a good saying, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, Cao Cao will go to deal with Yuan Shu in Yangzhou after fighting Xuzhou, Yuan Shao is not good to say anything about him.
Finally, to sum up, even if Yuan Shao hates Shen Xian, the person who came out of thin air to grab land, and still wants Cao Cao to kill Shen Xian, but Cao Cao is a little dissatisfied with Yuan Shao and doesn't want to live in his shadow with Yuan Shao from now on, he will not completely follow Yuan Shao's ideas.
And Cao Cao is not stupid, Shen Xian occupies such a large territory, the entire south is almost her territory, and her strength is not lower than Yuan Shao, and it is too late to make friends, so idiots will come up and fight hard.
"Therefore, it is more likely that Meng De will use troops against Yuan Highway after taking Xuzhou." Cai Yan said: "Maybe you don't have to wait for Xuzhou to change hands, they will fight." ”
After all, the situation in Xuzhou was too complicated: Cao Cao and Yuan Shu invaded, and Lü Bu and Liu Bei resisted, but there was also a rift between Lü Bu and Liu Bei, and the two attackers looked at each other even more unpleasantly...... Who knows if their current allies will turn around and stab a black knife?
"Are we going to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight?" Shen Xian held her chin with lack of interest: "Or go and insert a foot?" ”
Shen Xian, who has entered a period of burnout, doesn't want to fight anymore at all, she just wants to go back to her hometown to get married...... Bah!
"Plug in, here's my opinion." Cai Yan couldn't help but smile and said, "It's a pity not to stir it up." ”
Xun You pursed his lips and said helplessly: "You just want the world to be chaotic." ”
Cai Yan pouted and handed Xun You a proud look.
Shen Xian: "......"
Shen Xian said angrily: "I will add a rule in the future!" In Yizhou! Dog abuse is prohibited during working hours! ”
Cai Yan asked strangely, "What is dog abuse?" ”
"Forget it." Shen Xian waved her hand and said irritably, "It's not important, let's continue." ”
"Oh." Cai Yan nodded: "So my opinion is so, what do you think, lord?" ”
Shen Xian thought about it, and she felt that there were only a few people who hindered her from dominating the world: Boss Cao was the first choice, Yuan Shao followed, and the remaining Liu Bei, Lu Bu and Ma Teng from Xiliang were all very likely.
Some people solve the conflict, they will first pick the simple one, and then gradually deepen the difficulty, and so on until the boss is beaten. But some people like to challenge the high difficulty, and choose the boss as soon as they get started, and the rest of the minions can be slowly cleaned up.
The former is of course a very safe approach, but the latter is not impossible, as long as your own strength is enough to attack the boss, then it is obviously a better choice to destroy the boss before it grows further.
Based on this point of view, Shen Xian's idea was: "I think...... How big is Cao Cao to kill me, Yuan Highway and Liu Xuande completely occupy Xuzhou? ”
"It's huge." Xun You said lightly: "Yuan Highway has you staring at the rear, and he is actually very dangerous now." ”
Yuan Shu had always thought that the territory that Sun Ce had beaten down was his own, but Sun Ce had already turned against the water. Now that I spread out the map and observe, the only areas that Yuan Shu actually controlled were Jiujiang County, Danyang County, and Wu County in Yangzhou, and Runan County in Yuzhou. Among them, the attitudes of Danyang County and Wu County are still very ambiguous.
"Lu Fengxian and Liu Xuande are at odds with each other, and it is a dream for these two people to fight and want to hold Xuzhou, and they will break up sooner or later," Cai Yan said: "It is very likely that Liu Xuande was driven out of Xuzhou by Lu Fengxian first, and then Xuzhou was divided by Meng De and Yuan Highway." ”
Poor Uncle Liu Huang, in Cai Yan's heart, he is not even in the consideration of the winner, and even Lu Bu is ranked higher than him. This can't be blamed on Cai Yan for looking down on people, but Liu Bei has been running around with his two righteous brothers for so many years, but the soldiers and horses under his command are only 10,000 all year round, and they don't even have a fixed territory, which is really too miserable.
"They'd better deal with Lu Feng first." Shen Xian pressed her temple and said in a sad tone: "No matter what, I really don't want to meet this person on the battlefield." ”
"Don't worry, Lu Fengxian won't be able to mess around for long." Xun You smiled slightly: "It was his luck that Chang'an City let him escape back then, but this time it may not be." ”
From Ding Yuan to Dong Zhuo, and then from the emperor to Yuan Shao, Lu Bu did not stop all the way, betraying four bosses in a row, this record is unprecedented, and it is estimated that there will be no one in the future. By now, it is time for the people of the world to see Lu Bu's true face clearly, and have learned the lessons of the four unlucky bosses, and if Lu Bu wins next, no one will form an alliance with him; If Lu Bu was defeated, no one would risk his life to take him in, and even the person who defeated Lu Bu would not let him leave alive at all.
It's just that I don't know if Diao Chan can save Lu Bu once, and if he can save him a second time.
If Cao Cao wants to fight Yuan Shu in Xuzhou, for the safety of the front and back of the battle, he will not fight with Shen Xian and Yuan Shao, but Shen Xian and Yuan Shao cannot stand on the same line, so the biggest possibility is that Cao Cao clearly appeases Yuan Shao and secretly sends someone to form an alliance with Shen Xian, the content is about to agree to kill Yuan Shao together in the future, and the two of them will divide his territory equally, etc. Anyway, Shen Xian must always see some practical benefits, as for whether Boss Cao will fulfill his promise in the end, it all depends on his character.
As for who to send...... Needless to say?
"Bong-hyo." Thinking of this, Shen Xian turned around with a smile and looked up at Guo Jia: "Shouldn't you also contact your old friends?" ”
You must know that the last time Xi Zhicai went to Lujiang to bully Shen Xian, he didn't leave Guo Fengxiao in three sentences, and Shen Xian had to drink a bowl of vinegar when he saw it.
Guo Jia, who was named by the lord and had been silent, finally spoke: "He dares to come." ”
"Why don't you dare." Xun You sneered, I don't know if he was laughing at Guo Jia or laughing at Xi Zhicai: "Who was the one who went to Lujiang to make trouble last time?" But I heard that you left the lord there alone. ”
Although I was a little surprised that Xun You would stand up for himself, he ...... Gongda, don't you really mean that I'm too stupid to deal with Xi Zhicai?
Shen Xian thought silently.
"It was an accident." Guo Jia's brows furrowed slightly: "Not in the future." ”
Xun You only felt that there was something wrong with Guo Jia today, but Cai Yan became more and more determined in her thoughts, and her gaze passed over Shen Xian quietly: Is Xiao Xian completely ignorant of this matter or is it clear?
If it's the former, it's okay to say, but if it's the latter, it's really a bit troublesome - knowing what Guo Jia thinks about her, she still takes this person with her...... Isn't it really a default?
Cai Yan suddenly felt that a cold gaze fell on her body, and she looked to the side with a clear understanding in her heart, and just met Guo Jia's gaze.
Is this trying to threaten me? Cai Yan raised his eyebrows with a smile.
After a moment, Guo Jia looked away.
Shen Xian didn't know anything about the silent confrontation between Cai Yan and Guo Jia, she rubbed her eyes and said a little sleepy: "Don't mention it again after the matter is over, anyway, I'm fine, and Xi Zhicai didn't succeed, but you gave me a reminder that talents like him are held in the hands of the other party, which is always a big trouble for us." ”
Guo Jia may not know much, but Xun You knows the meaning of Shen Xian's words. A long time ago, when Shen Xian knew that Jia Xu was hiding behind her back and calculating her, Shen Xian was neither angry nor angry, but said something to Xun You with similar meanings. At that time, Xun You found that Shen Xian was a very interesting person, she didn't care what others did to her, whether it was good or bad, as long as the means were wonderful enough to arouse her interest, she would think about getting this person, and if she couldn't get it, she would kill her, anyway, she couldn't stay and make trouble for her.
It doesn't matter if Shen Xian is decisive or if she is ruthless, anyway, from her own position, this decision will be unanimously supported by everyone. However, the only people who can apply this rule are Jia Xu and Xi Zhicai, among whom Jia Xu is still deliberate, he grasped Shen Xian's psychology, and finally retired to find a good home.
As for Xi Zhicai...... Shen Xian hasn't tried it yet, who knows.
"He's a nuisance." Guo Jia laughed: "But don't worry, I will solve it." ”
"You'd better rest." Shen Xian waved her hand: "Have you forgotten what you said before?" ”
Guo Jia frowned dissatisfiedly: "But-"
"No, but." Shen Xian interrupted Guo Jia's words in a gentle and resolute tone, and she said seriously: "Xi Zhicai is not worth your effort, just leave it to Gongda." ”
Xun You: "......"
What does it mean that Lao Tzu is not as good as Guo Fengxiao?!
"It's overkill to Gongda." Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Xun You's black face, Shen Xian's face did not change, and she continued in a smooth tone: "Do you want to let Xiaozhi go?" He has been idle and bored every day...... Oh no, he's going to find Ziyi's army. ”
Xun You: "Hmph. ”
Guo Jia's eyes flickered slightly, although he understood that this was just an excuse that Shen Xian said in order to coax him to recuperate with peace of mind (Guo Jia: I know you said that you want to play Zhicai!). But I still feel very comfortable in my heart: I always feel very happy when I am praised by someone I like.
So Shen Xian decided to secretly help Cao Cao in the next melee, but not to help Cao Cao achieve the final victory, on the contrary, she was going to take Cao Cao first.
"Let Lu Fengxian fight with Liu Xuande first." Shen Xian smiled slightly: "The best thing at counter-planning is Wenhe, write to him." ”
Guo Jia nodded, he spread the rice paper on the table, and began to consciously help Shen Xian record the content.
"Where do you think Uncle Liu will run if he is defeated?" Shen Xian suddenly asked.
Cai Yan smiled: "What are you asking for?" Are you going to cut the grass and eradicate the roots? ”
Shen Xian thought to herself that there was no need for this, because I had already snatched his wife in advance and cut off the possibility of his son Liu Chan being born, am I too witty, hahaha!
"It's also very simple to let Lu Fengxian and Cao Mengde fight," Guo Jia said in a flat tone: "Settle the old accounts together, just let Cao Mengde know that the person who killed Cao Jugao is Lu Fengxian." ”
Shen Xian, Cai Yan and Xun You looked at Guo Jia in unison.
Guo Jia raised his eyebrows: "What?" ”
"Nothing." Shen Xian shook her head slowly, she tried her best to press down the horror that flashed in her heart, and tried her best to move away from the topic as calmly as possible: "And Yuan Highway...... It's hard to grasp this degree, who knows what the three of them will look like? Nor is it possible for things to turn out exactly the way we imagined them to. ”
"Yes." Guo Jia hooked the corners of his lips and showed a very shallow smile: "Just let Gongjin drive the army to the border between Lujiang and Yuzhang." ”
Once Shen Xian has the action of transferring troops, Yuan Shu will definitely worry about whether he will be copied by her, after all, Jiujiang and Lujiang are adjacent to each other, and Yuan Shu, who has been deceived by Shen Xian once, is now extremely insecure, and he will hesitate to look forward and backward. It is very taboo to hesitate in war, because the opportunity for victory is fleeting, and if you don't concentrate, you may be preempted by others. When Yuan Shu revealed his flaws, how could Cao Cao let it go?
And Lu Bu ...... He will fight Cao Cao in advance, and he will not even have a chance to surrender.
"As for the ...... Xuzhou," Guo Jia said slowly: "It is easy for Cao Mengde to fight, but it is difficult to hold on, not only is it difficult to hold on, but he has to bother to guard against his own safety for a day when he is in Xuzhou." ”
Shen Xian just wanted to ask Guo Jia what gave you the courage to make you say so firmly, when she saw a clear smile flash in Xun You's eyes. "That's true." Xun You nodded approvingly: "Cao Mengde slaughtered the three cities of Xuzhou, the people's hearts have been lost, even if Xuzhou is taken, the people will not recognize him, maybe they will spontaneously organize a team to resist." It is only a matter of time before Xuzhou changes hands. If we can occupy it, even if Cao Mengde raises a large army to attack it in the future......"
Cai Yan and Xun You glanced at each other and took over his words: "In order not to be slaughtered for the second time, the people of Xuzhou will definitely stick to it, and Xuzhou is definitely a monolith." ”
With Boss Cao's black history in front of her, Shen Xian didn't even have to work hard to win over the people's hearts.
These three people are so terrifying, can even this be calculated and used?
Thinking of Guo Jia's previous understatement of the news that "the person who sued Cao Cao for killing his father was Lu Bu", Shen Xian secretly shuddered.
Does Guo Jia want to spread rumors to provoke the struggle between Cao Cao and Lu Bu, or is it ...... Tell the truth?
Shen Xian was not afraid of Guo Jia, but she suddenly remembered that at that time, the news of Cao Song's killing came when she called Xi Zhicai away from Lujiang to save herself.
And it was after Shen Xian wrote a letter to Guo Jiajiaxu for help, and then the two made it clear that "the lord Mo Fang will hold on for a few more days".
It's scary to think about.
Shen Xian's thoughts went astray, and Guo Jia continued: "...... Then we don't have to move, just wait for Cao Mengde to send someone to the door. ”
Guo Jia exhaled softly: "We don't need to go to the muddy waters of Xuzhou openly, it is enough to do these things in secret." ”
Guo Jia looked at Shen Xian: "If the lord still has questions, you can write to Gongjin and Wenhe to ask one or two, and it is good to listen to other people's suggestions." ”
"Huh? Oh good. Shen Xian was successfully summoned by Guo Jia, and she nodded indiscriminately: "Then I'll ask the second brother and Wen He, and send a letter to Wen Ruo to ask." ”
Although Xun Yu is not good at strategy, he still has an overall view of the overall situation, and when a problem is looked at from a different angle, it is likely that there will be different discoveries.
Guo Jia found out that Shen Xian was distracted before, he frowned slightly, but he didn't break it immediately, just nodded and said gently: "Okay." ”
After discussing the next action, Xun You and Cai Yan said goodbye and left, and said in Xun You's words, "The atmosphere between the lord and Guo Fengxiao is too strange!" Akihime, let's go! lest you get involved in any strange thing. ”
Cai Yan wanted to stay and talk to Shen Xian, but Xun You kept giving her a look, so she could only send Xun You away first and then find a chance next time.
There were only two people left in the hall, Shen Xian and Guo Jia, who didn't feel it before, but now Shen Xian suddenly felt uncomfortable, she coughed and tried to dispel her embarrassment: "Fengxiao? ”
"How?" Guo Jia responded, and his attitude was very flat.
"Uh...... It's okay! Shen Xian smiled: "I just want to call you." ”
When Guo Jia heard this, his face showed a helpless expression, he really didn't understand what Shen Xian was doing for the same reason as being hot and cold to him, and he was suddenly angry and pushed him away, he hadn't figured out how to coax people, and it didn't take long for Shen Xian to get better on his own, and he came over and coquettishly coquettishly, just like a kitten that only scratched your paw and ran away, and then carefully folded back and licked you a few bites later.
Guo Jia raised his arm to hook Shen Xian's neck, pulled her into his arms with a little force, and put his chin on Shen Xian's shoulder, Guo Jia leaned into her ear and whispered, "Lord, what medicine are you taking?" ”
