Volume 2 Counting the Edge and Revealing the Peak of the Martial Arts Chapter 56
Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Liu Ye and LΓΌ Qian returned to the Junluo Mansion together, which was the residence where Guo Jia lived and where Cao Jun formulated his strategic plan.
Puyang City in Yanzhou is now the center of Cao Cao's power, where the highest command of Cao Cao's army is gathered, of which Cao Cao's mansion is the most core area, although this is Cao Cao's residence, but it is also the place where he works.
In addition to the supreme command post of Cao Fu, further down, is Guo Jia's military strategy mansion, he is responsible for formulating the strategic plan of Cao Jia's army, plus Guo Jia has privileges, he can summon all generals and civilian officials except Cao Cao, and can dispatch the army, grain, grass, materials and gold and silver in the treasury of Yanzhou without reporting, it can be said that he is the most powerful person under Cao Cao, even Xun Yu and Xiahoudun do not have such special treatment, which shows how high Cao Cao's attention to Guo Jia and his trust are.
Probably Zhou's Lu Shang and Qi's Guan Zhong are nothing more than that.
When he came to the Military Strategy, Guo Jia and everyone stood in front of the map, which was a redrawn map, with more accurate geographical information, which was a new map of Kyushu in the world made by merchants through the information collected by traveling back and forth between places, plus special field investigations.
Guo Jia glanced at the surrounding environment of Yanzhou, pointed to a few throats and said: "We have done a good job of defense in the Yanzhou area, but we still can't be careless, the night before I watched the sky at night, and saw that the lord's star dimmed, and then gradually turned scarlet, very weird, today's sudden change is to deal with the things foreshadowed by the night of the sky, just ......" Guo Jia said with a frown, as if there was something to worry about.
Xun Yu saw his melancholy and asked, "Fengxiao, what are you worried about?" β
Guo Jia said: "I'm worried that things are far more than that, the lord suddenly lost his parents, his mind was in turmoil, and anger is a reasonable thing, but it is not his style to make a big move for his own selfishness, I know that he is not a person who is willful and bent on going his own way, so the lord's behavior today is too weird, and now he is raising mourning soldiers for revenge, which is even more ominous." β
Cheng Yu asked, "Did Feng Xiao foresee any danger?" β
Guo Jia glanced at the map again and said: "According to the current deployment of Yanzhou, even if the army goes out on the expedition, there are not many defenders left, and there is no need to worry, if the enemy army comes to attack, my secret agents deployed in various places will definitely discover their movements in advance and report back quickly, and then add the precautions that have been prepared on the Yanzhou border, even if there are more enemies, it will be enough to deal with our reinforcements." β
"It's a problem with unforeseen circumstances." Guo Jia thought deeply while looking at the map, only to see his eyes staring at the territory around Yanzhou, each territory represents a princely power, at this time Guo Jia has already flashed countless ideas in his heart, but no matter where the princes attack, it will not pose much of a threat, but even so, Guo Jia is still deeply worried, he has a premonition that something big is about to happen, and it is the worst one.
"Are you afraid that something like this will happen again?" What Xun Yu said was naturally the murder of Cao Cao's parents this time.
Long before Cao Cao decided to bring his family to Yanzhou, Guo Jia had already made a detailed plan, especially the route back to Yanzhou, which was carefully formulated by Guo Jia.
How do you know that Cao Cao's family couldn't hold back when they arrived in Xuzhou, changed the route of travel without authorization, and swaggered through the city of Xuzhou, lest the world would not know, so that an accident occurred, even if Guo Jia's plan was perfect, they could not withstand their own death.
After this accident, Guo Jia couldn't believe in meticulous planning, as his teacher said, plans are dead, people are alive, no matter how precise the plan, it will change due to environmental and man-made changes, resulting in mistakes.
Therefore, after Guo Jia felt the ominous premonition, he thought about countless possible situations, but even in the worst case, he took precautions to deal with it, and only the one in 10,000 possibility that he had not expected had been pressing on his heart, lingering like a dark cloud.
Guo Jia nodded to Xun Yu and said: "The universe is not divided, the chaos is unknown, and even the stars and hexagrams do not show that there is any danger that will occur, but the more this happens, the more worried I become." β
Xun Yu said: "It's useless to worry about it, only one step at a time." β
Guo Jia snorted, and bowed his hand to Xun Yu and Cheng Yu: "After I leave, Yanzhou will have two people to worry about, in addition to the detailed work we sent, there are also secret agents from Linxian Tower, once the princes take action after we leave, the information will be handed over here as soon as possible, and you should have enough time to prepare." β
Xun Yu and Cheng Yu also bowed their hands to Guo Jia: "Don't worry, this is our business." β
Xun Yu said again: "On the lord's side, you have to be careful, as you said, the temperament of the lord has changed greatly, and it is different from the past, even if he relies on you again, you should not easily anger him." β
Guo Jia smiled: "I know this, I will wait until he is not so angry and then find a chance to persuade him, he will definitely listen." β
Xun Yu looked at him with a relaxed look, but he knew very well in his heart that this was not an easy thing at all, if it wasn't for Cao Cao's consideration today, maybe he really had a murderous intent, and if Guo Jia was not careful, maybe he would also have to worry about his life.
"Ziyang, you shouldn't be angry with me if I left you here, right?" Guo Jia asked with a smile.
Liu Ye said: "Fengxiao, what are you talking about, am I the kind of person who doesn't distinguish between things?"
