Therefore, because they were afraid of the epidemic of the plague, Cao Cao and they had no choice but to retreat. Overall, in the past two months, Yuan Shujun has suffered a big loss. Not to mention the defeat and retreat, but it is indeed about the same, after all, he had to face three parties before.

He first sent troops to Xuzhou, but was defeated by Lu Bu. Then Cao Cao and Sun Ce marched almost at the same time, Yuan Shu hurriedly transferred troops to defend, and then there was this sudden drought and locust plague, of course, this was indeed to save Yuan Shu. Don't look at him Huainan is the most severely affected place, but for Yuan Shu, he doesn't care about the life or death of the people, anyway, if he is safe and sound, it is better than anything. At least others may not have anything to eat, but they certainly won't-

Cao Cao and the others withdrew from Yuan Shu, and Ma Chao, who was in Longxian County at this time, was preparing to move to the office. When Ma Chao moved the capital to Xudu in Cao Cao, he took the opportunity to occupy Henan. Then after resting for more than half a month, he led the troops back to Longxian, and he went to the imperial court and asked Jia Xu, who was still in Yizhou at the time, to be the captain of this division. And Cao Cao, the most reluctant, did not want to show favor to Ma Chao, not only gave Jia Xu the lieutenant of the division, but also promoted Ma Chao to the rank of marquis.

And his place of governance has always been in Longxian County, Hanyang, Liangzhou, but this has actually been the seat of Liangzhou, and of course, Longxian County has always been Ma Chao's base camp. But now Ma Chao has become a hussar general of the Han Dynasty, performing the post of Liangzhou pastor, and his strength has been Liangzhou, Yizhou and the division that has not been won for too long. Of course, it is no longer a small force, so Guo Jia and several people jointly admonished Ma Chao, saying that the lord is now the time to move to the office. It can't be in Longxian anymore, because this place is actually no longer suitable.

Ma Chao thought about it carefully, now his potential range, Liangzhou is the most northwestern, even if Longxian is the most southeasterly in Liangzhou, and Hanyang is still adjacent to Sili's Fufeng, but it can't change many people's minds. That is, I belong to the partial security, because in Liangzhou, it is considered to be partial security.

And what other people think, Ma Chao doesn't really care too much, but there are still soldiers under his subordinates. What do they think, this is the most important, but Ma Chao has to pay attention to it. If most of them think that they are on the sidelines, then they are not, then they are actually considered to be. Isn't that what it is? It doesn't really matter what you think, on top of this. It's what his subordinates and soldiers think that matters.

Even Zhuge Liang wrote to Liu Bei. "The Han and the thief are not separated, and the king is not partial", although he will not say anything about "the Han and the thief are not separated", but it is indeed "the king is not partial".

And Ma Chao actually had this intention for a long time, so he wanted to move the governance office directly to Sili Chang'an, although Chang'an was indeed damaged a lot by Li Dao and Guo Yan before. But I'm not afraid, because I have money and food, what else can I be afraid of. And so, the benefits are still many. At least let his subordinates and soldiers see it. I am not the kind of lord who is in a corner of peace, but I can take them to achieve greater and more achievements, that is, I can get greater and more benefits in the future, that's it-

So when Cao Cao and the others were busy dealing with drought and locust plagues, Ma Chao was already preparing to move the governance office from Longxian to Chang'an, but at this time, he heard a bad news. came from Bingzhou, that is, he went to the party in Bingzhou, and his friend for many years, Uncle Zhang Yang and Zhang Zhi, had an accident.

Because his advisers gave Yuan Shao advice, saying that the publicity of the party in the state was a threat, so the lord should get rid of it as soon as possible. Yuan Shao felt that it was very reasonable when he heard it, at this time, he and Gongsun Zhan were temporarily at peace with each other, so Zhang Yang, the party's Taishou Zhang Yang, he was indeed a threat, so he had to remove this threat as soon as possible.

However, Yuan Shao also knew that "a soldier who surrenders without a fight", if he can do it without blood, and the other party can surrender himself, it is the best. But after Yuan Shao sent an envoy to Shangdang with his own handwritten letter, Zhang Yang naturally couldn't surrender, and drove the envoy out directly. This made Yuan Shao feel particularly faceless, so after the envoy returned, he directly led his troops to attack the Lu Shangdang. For Yuan Shao, if he dares to do this to himself, there is only one death.

And how could Zhang Yang be Yuan Shao's opponent, after more than half a month, Shangdang County was lost without an accident. The eldest son city was broken by the Jizhou army, and Zhang Yang was defeated and killed himself. Yuan Shao, on the other hand, occupied Shangdang County, expanding the scope of his power.

After the news reached Longxian, Ma Chao was very sad. Don't you know this childish uncle himself, he could have given up the entire Shangdang County directly, and then as long as he arrived at Sili, he would be safe, but he didn't do it, he just wanted to fight Yuan Shao, and the result was ......

To say that Ma Chao and many of his subordinates know that the relationship between his lord and the party is too good for Zhang Yang, so he can only persuade him, for fear that his lord will be hot-headed for a while, so he will directly lead the troops to merge the state. For some generals, they like this, but people who really understand know the way, this thing is not to be done.

Because that's really going to be a bad thing, this is not suitable for your own side to use troops now, and it should be better to rest. What's more, it's hard to say whether you can be Yuan Shao's original opponent, although most people think that if they really face Yuan Shao's Jizhou army, they should be able to win, but it is estimated that it can only be a miserable victory, and when the time comes, it can only be to let others "sit on the fisherman's profits", this other person is naturally Gongsun Zan of Youzhou and Cao Cao of Xu Du.

At this time, Guo Jia was persuading his lord, "Lord, the so-called 'people can't be resurrected after death', Zhang Taishou defeated Yuan Shao and killed himself in the eldest son city, we are also very sad, but now our army should quickly move the governance office to Chang'an!" ”

Ma Chao of course understands what Guo Jia means, but for himself, many things are not important, really, but relatives and friends are the most important. And whenever Ma Chao thinks of all the things he has known with Zhang Yang in the past ten years, Ma Chao knows what he knows. I can't let go of Yuan Shao, and I can't let go of Yuan Shao's Jizhou Army.

So Ma Chao said to Guo Jia: "Fengxiao doesn't need to say more, I have already made a decision at this time!" ”

Guo Jia took a look, "Lord, this ......, alas, Jia retires!" ”

Guo Jiazhi said, now this matter can only be discussed in the long run. After he came out of the state pastoral mansion, Guo Jia was thinking all the way, basically all the people who could come now came. It doesn't feel like it's. No, no, but there's another one who hasn't shown up.

So at this time, Guo Jia turned to the direction of the residence of the person who had not yet shown up, and walked there, and this person who did not show up was the current captain of the school, Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe.

Jia Xu was originally in Sili in front of his Sili lieutenant. But now Ma Chao doesn't want to move the administrative office to Chang'an, so Ma Chao temporarily recalled Jia Xu, the lieutenant of the division, to Longxian. Help yourself with these things. For Ma Chao. The people under him don't have to be in vain, and now they need Jia Xu to help, so naturally they can't let him go.

Guo Jia remembered that Jia Wen and this old fox had never come forward, of course, this is indeed in line with his character. But Guo Jia felt that he couldn't just let him go, and it was not necessary to come to him to get a way to make the lord change his mind.

After such a long period of contact, Guo Jia said to Jia Xu. That's really impressive. He knew that Jia Xu, the old fox, was indeed powerful enough, calculating people's hearts, and unparalleled in the world. Therefore, Guo Jia never dared to underestimate him, to know what is the most difficult thing in the world to understand, it is not a profound classic, but the human heart. But Jia Wen and his people have a grasp of people's hearts, and no one can do it better. At least Guo Jia has never seen someone who can surpass him in the search, so he has to admire.

Guo Jia easily saw Jia Xu who was in the house, as soon as Jia Xu saw Guo Jia coming, he just smiled, Guo Jia was not polite to him, but directly found a place to sit down.

Guo Jia spoke first: "Brother Wenhe should know what Jia is doing now, right?" ”

Guo Jia saw Jia Xu like this, if this old fox wanted to say that he didn't know what to do, he probably couldn't believe it.

For Guo Jia, Jia Xu is naturally impossible to be as cautious as his own lord. And Guo Jia, Jia Xu is indeed quite appreciative, younger than himself, and he is also very strategic, with a bright mind, which is not comparable to ordinary people. He knew that he Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao would be the mainstay of the Liangzhou army sooner or later.

Jia Xu smiled slightly, "Feng Xiao should know that the lord is not able to persuade people to win people!" ”

As soon as Guo Jia heard it, he knew that Jia Xu had a way. After all, based on his understanding of Jia Xu and his people, if Jia Xu has nothing to do, or doesn't want to say anything, then he can not be in the mansion, or he will not see himself directly. But now it's not like this, not only did I see myself, but I also said this to myself, so I have to say, there is a drama here.

Guo Jia naturally agreed with what Jia Xu said, but he said: "I don't know what Brother Wen He thinks, please don't hesitate to give advice!" ”

Jia Xu waved his hand, "Feng Xiao doesn't have to be so polite, as long as Feng Xiao can agree to Xu, then Xu will tell Feng Xiao everything he thinks!" ”

When Guo Jia heard this, he asked, "I don't know what Brother Wen He is referring to?" ”

Jia Xu smiled mysteriously and said, "As long as Fengxiao agrees, today's matter ......."

Before Jia Xu finished speaking, Guo Jia understood, and hurriedly said: "Jia understands, Jia has never met Brother Wen He, and the idea is all Jia himself came up with, Wen He looks so good?" ”

Jia Xu smiled, "Okay, good!" In this way, let me talk about my thoughts, Fengxiao thinks about it, and the lord is ...... At the end of the day, there should be no problem when I think about it! ”

Guo Jia listened to what Jia Xu told him, his eyes lit up, and he said in his heart that it had to be Jia Xu, an old fox, who could directly catch the key place, why didn't he think of it before. Maybe this will really make the lord change his mind, yes, that's it! (To be continued......)
