Liu Bei's words made Liu Biao really groan for a while, thinking carefully.

I have to say that Liu Bei's thinking is still in place, if Liu Biao is an ordinary prince, this matter is harmless, or at present, in the territory of the Han Dynasty, there is only one court supported by himself, and the disadvantages of uniting with Yuan Shao can be ignored.

But right now, in this land of Middle-earth, there are two imperial courts! And fire and water are incompatible.

Both courts regarded themselves as orthodox, keeping an eye on each other's situation and intending to use political means to strike at each other at any time.

What Liu Bei is worried about is that although there is no evidence at the moment, the death of the first emperor Liu Xie, a discerning person can see that it has something to do with him, this matter is not trivial, once someone in the future believes that Yuan Shao colluded with Wuhuan to kill the first emperor, then his political position will definitely be at a disadvantage.

And although Liu Bei doesn't know the potter as well as Cao Cao, he also knows that this person looks like a gentleman, but in fact he is very scheming, once he knows his true situation, the consequences may be unimaginable.

Liu Biao thought carefully for a while, and finally made up his mind.

"Brother Xian, although your worries are justified, what you need to worry about right now is the actual problem at hand...... The potter is really the enemy. And Yuan Shao was also the head of the princes back then, such a big thing, he must have carefully covered it up when he did it, and tried his best to conceal it, and he would not easily leak it...... In my opinion, this is still worth the risk. ”

Liu Bei saw that Liu Biao had made up his mind, so he didn't say anything anymore.

In fact, he also had some faint expectations in his heart.

The rivalry between the princes is like a master's move, although it is dangerous, but it can also show the ability and situation of the man.

A good opponent is really hard to find in the world.

It is true that although the potter is young, he is definitely a rare good opponent in this world.

Liu Bei was both worried and expectant.

Somewhat touched with a bit of perverted psychology.

……

Nothing in the world can be hidden from the school government.

Jingzhou Sanliu and Yuan Shao's small actions are the same.

The news was soon informed to the potter by Guo Jia, who had arrived from Pengcheng.

In the face of the strong alliance of the two major forces in the north and the south, Prime Minister Taiping also feels a little unpeaceful now.

On top of the court discussion, the potter directly expressed his thoughts and worries.

"According to the report of the school government, Yuan Shao and Liu Biao seem to have the intention of uniting at the moment, Yuan Shao has often thought about revenge since the battle of Guandu, and he united with Liu Biao this time, making it clear that he wants to deal with me...... If Xuzhou and Jiangdong fight with them in the south and the north, I am afraid that the battle line will be too long, and I am afraid that our army will not be able to bear it. ”

Guo Jia is still smiling, and his performance is a little underdrawn.

"It's not difficult, but there is a lack of good decision-makers who can't figure out the key."

The potter's reaction was fast, and he was angry after listening to Guo Jia's words.

If it weren't for the large number of people in the hall right now, I would have to shoot this prodigal son into a sieve with a short crossbow.

Isn't this beating around the bush and hurting oneself and lacking heart?

"What is Captain Guo's opinion, might as well tell him bluntly?" The potter gritted his teeth and looked at him with a smile.

Guo Jiachang made a gesture and said: "Although Yuan Shao has the intention to take revenge, but the battle of Guandu, so that the strong part of Hebei is in Henan and Xuzhou, in a short period of time to want to restore the power, I am afraid that it is extremely difficult, the so-called elimination of the other, Yuan Shao's power is declining, Zhang Yan of Montenegro will be able to take advantage of the gap to rise, the prime minister may wish to send someone through the white winding, once again to marry Zhang Yan, and in the name of the new dynasty, to seal it, so that Zhang Yan can be encouraged to clamp Yuan Shao for us in the rear, and the prime minister sits in the southeast, personally deal with Sanliu, and send a general to guard Pengcheng for you, blockading the Xuzhou border, as time goes by, Yuan Shao in the north naturally retreats. ”

Zhao Yun stood out and said: "Although this is the case, although Yuan Shao's strength has regressed, his background is still extremely strong, Hebei is densely populated, has abundant grain production, and is full of talents, Zhang Yan is afraid that he will not be able to restrain Yuan Shao for long." ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "Zhang Yan is just the first step, the person who can really help us restrain Yuan Shao in the north is actually someone else." ”

Zhuge Liang listened carefully, his eyes suddenly lit up when he heard the words, and said, "What Mr. Guo is referring to in his words is not Cao Cao of Xuchang?" ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "In this world, except for the prime minister, who else can have the ability to restrain Yuan Shao, except for Cao Cao?" ”

Chen Deng frowned and pondered: "But the problem is that our current relationship with Cao Cao is not the time when we were in the battle of Guandu, at that time Yuan Shao's power was monstrous, and Cao Tao's two armies were united...... But now that Yuan Shao's power is declining, we and Cao Cao have their own plans, not to mention that the last time the prime minister designed to take away thousands of Cao Cao's war horses, what a huge feud is this? Cao Cao was able to agree to our request for help. ”

Guo Jia laughed and said: "Yuanlong, this matter is your blind eye, if we take the initiative to ask Cao Cao for help, Cao Cao will definitely refuse to send troops, even if he is willing, he will inevitably ask for a price and slaughter us fiercely...... It's better not to ask for help, just let Cao Cao see the situation clearly and make a judgment. ”

Chen Deng blinked his eyes in surprise, pondered carefully for a while, and then suddenly said: "Fengxiao is really a high opinion!" ”

The potter also understood what Guo Jia meant at this moment.

Guo Jia's intention is to let Cao Cao wait and see what happens, and then make a judgment that Xuzhou will not be influenced by external forces to disrupt Cao Cao's own thinking.

It is necessary to know that Cao Cao is currently occupying the Central Plains, and if he wants to expand, one is to the north, and the other is to the west.

In the west of the pass, Zhong Xuan appeased the union for him, there was no major matter, if the persecution was urgent, it would be easy to cause changes, and he could not control those scattered small warlords.

Looking at Cao Cao's current strategic depth, it is still the most practical to plot against Hebei.

Yuan Shao was hit hard by this, if he didn't seize every opportunity to enter Hebei and go to Hebei, if he let the surnamed Yuan ease his breath after a few years, it would be a bad thing.

Yuan Shao's ability and ability, Cao Cao knows best, being able to defeat Yuan Shao, the difficulty and difficulty in this make Cao Cao tremble, and he dare not do the second extravagant hope.

He never dreamed of giving Yuan Shao a chance to turn the tables.

What's more, Cao Cao is not the only one eyeing Yuan's territory, the potter's tiger is on the side, and his eyes like wolves and foxes have also been staring closely at the realm of Hebei.

This time the potters fought on two fronts, Yuan Shao sent troops, if Zhang Yan and Yuan Shao were entangled again, Cao Cao weighed the pros and cons, there was no reason why he would not send troops to Hebei to seize land.

And psychologically, he thinks he's smart.

After figuring out the key point, the pottery merchant immediately said: "The land of Pengcheng will be handed over to Lu Su and Tai Shici to be fully responsible for blocking Yuan Shao's elite from Qingzhou...... Sun Gan, as a messenger, went to Montenegro to see Bai Huan and asked him to send troops, and Cao Cao's movements should not be ignored...... As for Nanchang, Tao is here, and he will meet Sanliu in person...... Liu Biao and Liu Bei, Tao Mou to see how many catties they have. ”
