Wang Xiao is a person who cherishes flowers, but he is definitely not a licking dog who kneels and licks unconditionally.

It's no problem to take this opportunity to hook up with Guo Zhao, but if you really go to Cao Cao to intercede with the Sima family for her, it will be nonsense.

The reason why Guo Zhao agreed to speak for Sima Fa was because he had this certainty to persuade Cao Cao, and he could also take the opportunity to perform in front of Cao Cao.

Cao Cao, who had a headache that day, used a needle, and when he was packing up his things, Cao Cao took the initiative to ask, "You also know about Dong Cheng's conspiracy to assassinate them this time." What do you think? ”

Wang Xiao packed up his things, sat down in front of the bed and said, "Judging from the details, this matter is just a group of unambitious mediocre people who want to seize power. If you look at the big picture, it is a good opportunity to settle the rear before the decisive battle with Yuan Shao. ”

Cao Cao sat up straight and asked with a smile, "Then how can we settle the rear?" ”

Wang Xiao arched his hand, "Emperor Liu... Father, the key to this matter lies with Xun Lingjun. ”

Looking at the face in front of him who liked to squint his eyes, he almost blurted out Uncle Liu.

The monster blamed Uncle Liu Huang for jumping too well, but fortunately he corrected it in time.

"Dong Cheng's matter implicated many people, but not all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty participated in it. In that case, it is really unpopular. ”

Wang Xiao explained, "Eradicating Dong Zhuo's party is to kill people and attack the heart. Before the decisive battle with Yuan Shao, let the hundred officials here in Xu Du not deviate from morality. And let them rally closely around Sikong Mansion. ”

Cao Cao squinted his eyes and stroked his beard, "Why do you say that the key is with Xun Yu?" ”

"Xun Lingjun is talented, comparable to Zhang Zifang. Their Xun family is famous all over the world, and his own official status is also in the Han court. All the officials of the court and the central government believed in him and obeyed him. Stabilizing his heart and letting him serve his father honestly is equivalent to stabilizing the officials of the court. ”

After Cao Cao's trademark laughter, he waved his hand directly, "That woman asked you to intercede, and I agreed to this." You go and let Sima Fa go, but don't get involved in the rest of the matter. ”

"Whoa."

No one in Sikong Mansion can hide anything from Cao Cao, and Guo Zhao came to Wang Xiao to intercede, he naturally knows.

If Wang Xiao can't come up with a convincing reason, he won't give this face.

"Wait a minute."

When Wang Xiao was about to leave, Cao Cao called out to him, "Yang Xiu is good friends with you, what do you think of this person?" ”

"Talented, but not worthy of talent."

"Well said!"

Cao Cao slapped on the bed, got up and walked in front of Wang Xiao, and warned him earnestly, "In this troubled world, regardless of morality, as long as you have the key points in your hands, you don't have to be restrained in employing people to do things." ”

Wang Xiao saluted respectfully and sent a kind word to show that he was happy and convinced of Cao Cao's teachings.

In the latter matter, Wang Xiao did not get too involved in it.

On the one hand, Yang Xiu's forgery of letters was exposed, and it was difficult for him to come forward. On the other hand, Wang Xiao has no good impression of the Sima family, and he has no intention of taking this opportunity to win over the Sima family.

If it really won over Sima's family, it would leave people talking if he turned his face in the future.

Seeing that Cao Pi was impatient to win over the Sima family, it would be justified to wait until he succeeded in winning the heir and settling the old accounts in the future.

Cao Cao can not be afraid of people's words, and that is because he is self-made, and everyone under him believes in him.

Wang Xiao's identity this time is helpless, he has to take into account his reputation.

If the reputation is small and bad, then no one will follow. If you don't have enough people to support you, don't even think about it.

In the days that followed, a series of stories played out one after another.

What Yang Xiu framed the Sima family, what Sima Yi exposed Yang Xiu, what Xun Yu helped, what Cao Pi went to ask Sima Yi for help, what Sima Yi would rather break his leg than accept Cao Cao's expedition or something.

To be honest, this paragraph has washed the Sima family too much.

Wang Xiao watched all these things from the sidelines, and devoted himself to practicing martial arts and reading. Only when doing acupuncture for Cao Cao will he respond to Cao Cao's inquiries in a targeted manner.

Wang Xiao gradually showed his talent in martial arts, military strategy, governance, poetry and other aspects.

If there is a gap in the chest, people must know it, and if you are talented, you must show it.

If you don't want to live in seclusion in the mountains and be in the company of birds and animals, then you have to show yourself as much as possible.

He showed his talent in all aspects, which made Cao Cao more and more satisfied.

Sometimes, even if it is not acupuncture for headaches, he will talk to Wang Xiao about some political affairs.

Even, when Manzhong, Guo Jia, Xun Yu and others reported on political affairs, Wang Xiao was also allowed to watch the politics from the sidelines.

Time passed little by little, and as Yuan Shao's army pressed the border, Cao Cao's side finally came to send troops after solving the matter of Dong Cheng and others.

In this battle, Cao Cao left Xun Yu in the rear of Xudu. took Guo Jia and others to travel with the army.

As for Wang Xiao, this time he also went to war with the army as a captain.

Before setting out on the expedition, Cao Cao asked Guo Jia and Xun Yu which of his sons was suitable to inherit his career.

The two wrote their names on the bamboo slips, but Cao Cao destroyed them after reading them, and no one knew who the two of them wrote.

No one will ask in person, that's a mistake.

Wang Xiao, who knew it in his heart, sorted out his salute and entered the barracks.

When an army travels, it does not march in armor.

The physical strength of the soldiers is very important, and when marching, heavy items such as armor are placed on large carts, and the soldiers and civilians are responsible for transporting them.

Not to mention the cavalry, which was usually mounted on pack horses. If not, they would rather walk than ride a charging horse while marching.

In the film and television drama, the scene of cavalry riding horses and infantry marching through armor, everyone just looks at the excitement, you don't need to believe it.

On this day, the army passed by Cao E's monument, and Cao Cao stopped to watch.

The stele of Cao E records the filial piety of Cao E who threw herself into the river to find her father. This inscription was inscribed by Cai Yong, and there are two lines of inscription on it that resemble a puzzle.

Cao Cao looked around and asked if everyone could unravel it.

Yang Xiu, who was full of ambition, stepped forward, and when he was about to express himself, Wang Xiao pulled him back.

Yang Xiu looked at Wang Xiao puzzled, not understanding what this meant.

Wang Xiao glanced at Cao Cao, who was thinking hard, and lowered his voice and said, "You are a smart person here?" ”

Yang Xiu thought for a while, and immediately suddenly.

Those who can follow Cao Cao are all talented. To say that this puzzle is not so profound, it is impossible for only Yang Xiu to see it.

Everyone is pretending to be deaf and dumb, but you ran out to be in the limelight, have you ever considered how Cao Cao feels when you haven't figured it out yet.

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

If you can't understand the meaning of this sentence, you will eventually have bad luck.

The army continued to move forward, and Wang Xiao couldn't help but laugh as he looked at the many military flags.

"Why is Zijian laughing?" Yang Xiu, who was following Wang Xiao, expressed puzzlement.

"It's nothing, it's just a little itchy on the cheek."

Wang Xiao laughed that the banners held by Cao Cao in many film and television dramas were Cao or Wei. But in fact, most of the time, people use Han flags.

The Han Dynasty has not yet perished, Cao Cao, who coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, is the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, and if he does not hit the Han flag, he is not slapping himself in the face.

Cao Cao in front of him stopped his horse and laughed, "That puzzle, I figured it out." ”

"Yellow silk, color silk also, is a unique word. Young women and young girls are also wonderful words together. The grandson and the son of the daughter are also good words together. As for the mortar, it is subject to Xinye, and together it is a word. This puzzle is a brilliant word. ”

Wang Xiao stepped forward and praised Sikong for his intelligence with everyone, and I was far worse.

After being proud, Cao Cao looked around.

If others don't say it, at least Guo Jia, Yang Xiu, and even Wang Xiao can't guess it.

Especially Wang Xiao, who knows how to hide clumsily and obscurity at a young age. This can't be done, young people have to be forward.

"Zijian." Cao Cao beckoned Wang Xiao to step forward, "This decisive battle with Yuan Shao, do you have a strategy to retreat from the enemy?" ”

Wang Xiao waved his hand: "There is no strategy to retreat from the enemy." ”

Cao Pi on the side smiled subconsciously when he heard this. Then Wang Xiao followed and said: "The strategy of defeating the enemy is a little experienced. ”

"Oh?" Cao Cao looked at him curiously, "We have 20,000 horses, and Yuan Shao has an army of 100,000." You actually said that you can defeat the enemy, talk about it carefully. ”

"Yuan Shao is a stubborn person, and there is no need for a righteous and loyal resourceful person like Tian Feng, but instead appoints some treacherous sycophants."

Wang Xiao explained: "A righteous and loyal person cannot have many ambitions, but a treacherous sycophancy can be bought. As long as you spend enough effort, you can naturally buy off important people in Yuan Jun. At that time, whether it is a surprise attack, a desperate road or burning food, it will be twice the result with half the effort. ”

He's speaking according to the epic.

It was precisely because Cao Cao bribed Xu You and others in Yuan Shao's army that he learned that Wuchao's defense was lax and his defense was not strong. This is the only way to destroy its morale and finally win a big battle with less and more.

If Yuan Shao reused Tian Feng and others, there would definitely be no such omission.

There is no way, the internal friction within the Yuan family is too powerful.

Cao Cao squinted his eyes and brushed his beard silently.

Guo Jia cast an appreciative look at Wang Xiao. Not to mention anything else, this wit is more than enough to be a master book in the army or something.

After a while, Cao Cao stretched out his hand and nodded at Wang Xiao, "You kid, hide when you should hide it." When it's time to come out, you can also say something. When I was your age, I didn't have this heart. Today's young people are amazing. ”

Everyone around laughed in unison, but Cao Pi's smile was even more ugly than crying.

The army set out on the march and continued to march towards a decisive battle with Yuan Shaojun.

Cao Cao's performance and words made many people in Cao Jun's have different thoughts. Looking at Wang Xiao's gaze, it was also different.

On Xu Du's side, Zhang Chunhua wanted to pull the red line for Sima Fu and Guo Zhao.

But Guo Zhao read the short song line written by Wang Xiao, and said that I still owe him a meal. Immediately, the red line was broken.

When it came to Sima Yi's side, his expression was very strange.

"I've seen Cao Zijian too. If you want to say that the character is talented and the appearance is impeccable. I don't know why, but I always feel that when he looks at me, there seems to be murderous intent in his eyes. ”

"How is that possible?" Zhang Chunhua naturally doesn't believe that "there was no resentment in the past, and there is no hatred in the near future, you think too much." ”

Sima Yi nodded worriedly, "I hope." ”
