Chapter 123 Talk to Guo Jia
"Ping'er, what do you mean by that? Do you also think that something big will happen in Chang'an? ”
Cao Ren heard Liu Ping's admiration for Guo Jia in his tone, and couldn't help but wonder: "Now that the two thieves of Li Dao and Guo Yan have kidnapped the Son of Heaven and the civil and military ministers for nearly two years, these two people have tens of thousands of soldiers in Xiliang, refuse the danger of Tongguan, sit back and watch the chaos of the princes of the Kwantung region, no one takes care of them, Chang'an City is solid, what big things can happen?" ”
Cao Ren was talking to Guo Jia just now, but when Guo Jia said this, he sold it and kept silent, and Cao Ren thought that Guo Jia was alarmist.
Any strategist will always throw out an astonishing remark when he first joins the service, and then break it down, Cao Ren has seen a lot of such people, but there are very few who are really talented.
Liu Ping smiled slightly and said, "Uncle, can you know who the two thieves are like Li Dao and Guo Yan?" ”
Cao Ren shook his head and said: "I don't know, but I think that those two people are Dong Zhuo's generals, and looking at Dong Zhuo's actions, I know that these two people are probably not good." ”
Liu Ping nodded and said: "That's true, these two thieves are not good people, they were just ordinary generals of the Xiliang Army before, but now they suddenly hold the highest power of the Han Dynasty, as the saying goes, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, since ancient times, the highest authority can only be gathered in the hands of one person, but now there are two people in charge of the Xiliang army, with the strength of these two people, how can they get along in harmony?"
They have to fight themselves, presumably this is Mr. Guo's so-called big thing. ”
Liu Ping has the entire Three Kingdoms in his mind, so he naturally knows the major events that are about to happen this year.
After Dong Zhuo was murdered to death by Wang Yun and Lu Bu, the Xiliang army had no leader, and then collapsed.
After Wang Yun took power, he began to wantonly kill Dong Zhuo's old department, and Li Dao and Guo Yan, the two generals who were not considered high-level soldiers of the Xiliang Army, followed the big slip and dismissed the army to prepare to hide back in their hometown.
Who wants to meet the strategist Jia Xu, that Jia Xu is a Wuwei person from Xiliang and Dong Zhuo's old department, so he is naturally among Wang Yun's liquidation.
So in order to protect himself, Jia Xu persuaded these two people: they fled for their lives alone, and any pavilion chief they met on the road could arrest you and others, so it was better to lead the troops to the west, converge the soldiers along the way, and then attack Chang'an to avenge Dong Gong.
If you are lucky enough to succeed, you can honor the Son of Heaven and conquer the world.
If you can't succeed, it's never too late to escape.
This is Jia Xu's version of "coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes".
However, what Jia Xu didn't expect was that he really overestimated the lower limit and IQ of these two people.
These two people followed Jia Xu's plan and gathered the old troops to attack Chang'an, that is, the Xiliang army was fierce, and they really captured Chang'an City and controlled the imperial court, so the Son of Heaven and the ministers became their hostages.
Since then, they have been flying in the court, rampant, and at the same time suspicious of each other and wary of each other, and it has been nearly two years now.
Liu Ping knew that soon Taiwei Yang Biao would borrow the contradiction between the two and use the simplest and most peachy strategy to sow discord, so he successfully provoked the contradiction between the two, and the two fought each other in Chang'an City.
Liu Ping felt that Guo Jia's so-called major event was probably what he was referring to.
It was precisely because of the infighting between the two parties that the Son of Heaven returned to the east under the escort of Guo Yan.
However, Liu Ping knows this because he is familiar with this history, but it is great that Guo Jia can also deduce it, but he is completely based on the analysis and judgment of the two of them.
Cao Ren listened to Liu Ping's words, and still said suspiciously: "Then Guo Jia is just a cloth cloth, can he still predict the future?"
Wait for your father-in-law to come back and see what he says.
You two go talk to him for a while, and I won't go in, I'm not used to this kind of crepe person. ”
"This is not to predict the future, this is to gain insight into human nature," Liu Ping said with a smile: "Uncle, you go and get busy, and the two of us will go to see Mr. Guo." ”
"What insight into human nature? It's so mysterious," Cao Ren shook his head and joked at Liu Ping: "I don't believe that he can still be a prophet." ”
After saying that, he left with his hands behind his back.
Liu Ping and Cao Ang entered the room, only to see a young man sitting at the small table pouring himself a drink, the young man looked like he was twenty-four or five years old, he was gentle and elegant, and his manners were extraordinary.
Cao Ang naturally didn't dare to slack off on the distinguished guests invited by his father, and said respectfully: "Could this be Mr. Guo?" In the lower Cao Ang courtesy. ”
Guo Jia hurriedly stood up and returned the salute with a smile: "It turned out that the eldest prince had arrived, and it was Guo Jia below." ”
He stood up and Liu Ping found that this Guo Jia was so tall, but he was relatively thin, and he was waiting for Shi Li to introduce himself, but he saw that Guo Jia had already arched his hand at him and said, "Could this be Ping's son?" Guo Jia was polite. ”
"It's Liu Ping down there," Liu Ping was stunned, but he didn't expect Guo Jia to recognize himself as soon as they met, and hurriedly returned the salute, wondering: "Does Mr. Guo know me?" ”
Guo Jia smiled and shook his head: "In the remote place of Yingchuan for a long time, how have you seen Ping Gongzi."
But now the name of Ping Gongzi is like thunder, the rebellion of Ping Yanzhou, the solution of the plague, and recently conquered Pengcheng, who doesn't know in this world?
I didn't expect Ping Gongzi to be so young and have made such an earth-shattering career, and I admire him very much. ”
Guo Jia said these words very sincerely.
Liu Ping didn't expect that his fame would be so big, even Guo Jia had already heard about him, which shows that Yingchuan deserves to be the place with the fastest information circulation in the world.
However, it is also possible that Guo Jia did his homework before he came, how could a person like him fight a battle that he was not sure of?
If you want to work for the Cao family, you naturally have to inquire about the internal personnel of the Cao family.
Now that Cao Cao is not in Yanzhou and is on the way back, Guo Jia arrived, and Cao Ang, the eldest son, and Liu Ping came forward to accompany him at the same time, which was already the highest courtesy in Yanzhou, and Guo Jia seemed to be very satisfied.
Scholars are arrogant and care about the attitude of others towards them.
"Mr. Guo is new to Yanzhou, but are you still used to it?" Cao Ang smiled and knelt down to greet him.
Guo Jia also sat down and smiled slightly: "Everything is fine, but I have a bad problem, that is, I don't have wine and no joy, I just tasted Yanzhou's wine, and the taste is very light." ”
He shook his head lightly as he spoke.
Only then did Liu Ping realize that Guo Jia's bowl was actually wine, and the history books introduced him as informal, informal, and good wine, and he really lived up to his reputation, and he had already drunk it when he first came to Yanzhou.
That is to say, he is talented and has the bottom in his heart, otherwise who has just come to serve, has not seen the lord yet, and dares to drink?
When it comes to wine, Cao Ang is not happy, he is also a good winemaker, and said with a hearty smile: "If you want to say that the wine is light, it is that you have not gone to my virtuous brother's house to drink the wine he brewed, it is really the first wine in the world, anyway, I am only drunk after three or five bowls." ”
The liquor in Liu Ping's house has been distilled and purified by Liu Ping, and although the degree is not as good as the alcohol blended in later generations, it is many times higher than what is sold on the market today.
"The number one wine in the world? The eldest prince said something a little too much. Guo Jia smiled and shook his head.
