Chapter 383: Guo Jia dies suddenly

"Li Dian." Yuan Xi suddenly called.

"Yes."

Li Dian is listed.

Yuan Xi straightened his body slightly: "After talking for a long time, I forgot about your defeat crime." When you were stationed at the gate before, you had already been defeated once, and now you have been defeated by Cao Cao twice. From now on, remove all your powers, lead the remnants of the wolf cavalry army, and go to Puyang to rest and recuperate, and obey Gao Lan's orders. In addition, go to Gaolan to lead fifty troops and pay a fine for half a year. ”

"No."

Li Dian had expected it, and he didn't feel half surprised, but his heart was like water.

"Go ahead."

"No." Li Dian left.

Only Yuan Xi, Zhang Jaw, and Zheng Gu were left in the tent.

He also pleaded guilty.

Yuan Xi didn't blame him: "Since the return of the Black Mountain Army, you have made the most military achievements and the highest prestige. It can be said that... You are the commander of the Montenegrin Army, and I hope that in the next war, you will play your part. ”

"Rest assured, the last general will do his best to exterminate Cao Cao!" Solid archway.

"Tell me first, what is the situation after Cao Cao broke through?" Yuan Xi asked.

The Solids ordered the people to hang up the map.

He approached and said: "After Cao Cao broke through, he went to Xuzhou. Garrisoned in Xiaopei for the night, and then went to Pengcheng. Now Cao Cao's 100,000 army should all be in Pengcheng. ”

"It's very close to Yangzhou..." Yuan Xi muttered secretly and opened his eyes violently: "It's not good, it must be Zhou Yu attacking Yangzhou, Yangzhou is in danger, ask Cao Cao for help." Therefore, Cao Cao was anxious to break through and go to Pengcheng to respond. If we don't rush to Xuzhou as soon as possible, he will definitely move eastward and defeat Zhou Yu in the fastest time. We'll have one less reinforcement at that point. ”

"It must be so!" Zhang Jaw said: "We should set off immediately, kill to Pengcheng, and fight Cao Cao with Zhou Yu!" ”

"Well, this is also a good opportunity for us to seize Xuzhou." Yuan Xi said happily: "You give the order to go down, each battalion will rest for a day, and after you have eaten and drunk enough, and have the spirit, you will go to Xuzhou." ”

"Yes..."

He Gu and Jaw Chang answered.

"Also...." Yuan Xi added: "From now on, Zhang Jaw commands the whole army and commands the battle. You must also obey General Zhangjaw's orders, and you must no longer be suspicious like the Li Dian incident. ”

Yu Gu scratched his head and smiled: "The lord said that he was joking, how could the last general suspect General Zhangjaw." ”

"I'm just saying ugly things in front of me, don't fall for it when the time comes."

"The last general is ashamed, and the last general remembers." Solid response.

...........

The army was commanded by Open Jaw, and the situation was immediately different.

Prior to this, the 100,000 troops on the battlefield of Rencheng were all under Li Dian's orders. Although Li Dian has made many military exploits and is a general, he used to be Cao Cao's general, and now he is attacking Cao Cao, which inevitably arouses suspicion. And Zhang Jaw is Yuan Xi's confidant and Hebei's general, not only excellent in martial arts and outstanding in the art of war, but also won the hearts of the military. With Zhang Jaw in commanding the whole army, the sergeants regained their confidence.

..............

After a day of rest.

Under the leadership of Zhang Jaw and Xi Gu, the whole army marched to Xuzhou.

As for Li Dian, because he was defeated again and again, he was sent back to Puyang for the sake of military discipline.

Yuan Xi, as the commander of the Hebei Army, should have been with the army. However, his role is not only to command the whole army, but also to shoulder the heavy task of exploring the way, because from Rencheng to Xuzhou, there are many dangerous places, if there is no air superiority, all-round exploration will be dangerous.

At this time.

In the Pengcheng Mansion in Xuzhou, a sad thing is about to happen.

Cao Cao's chief strategist, Guo Jia, has been ill for a long time and only has his last breath left.

Cao Cao came to see him.

Sitting in front of the couch, he held Guo Jia's hand tightly: "Fengxiao, you will be fine, and you will be fine." I also need your advice to destroy Yuan Xi and Dinghebei, how can you... ”

"Ahem..."

Guo Jia's face was full of life, his lips were pale, and even his coughing voice was very weak.

He said in an inaudible voice: "The prime minister doesn't have to be sad, life... Who didn't die? Who is immune to this? The minister just left a few years earlier... ”

"The only thing that the minister can't worry about is the current battle situation, which is extremely unfavorable to the prime minister, cough cough..." Guo Jia coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Cao Cao wanted to call someone to heal.

Guo Jia grabbed his hand and said, "Prime Minister, minister... Recommend one person to give advice to the prime minister. ”

"Who?"

"This person was a subordinate of Li Dao and Guo Yan in his early years, and then switched to Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu, fought in Wancheng, returned to the prime minister, and is now Xuchang Changshi, his surname is Jia, his name is Xu, the word is harmonious, he is a rare strategist in a hundred years, in the eyes of the minister, his talent is no less than the minister. With him assisting the prime minister, the minister is relieved to die. Guo Jia said intermittently.

Jia Xu?

Cao Cao remembered this person, but he had a bad impression: "This person has repeatedly betrayed the master, and he cannot be entrusted with reuse." ”

"No, if the prime minister wants to win the world, he must reuse this person! Because he is indeed talented, Dong Zhuo was punished, Wang Yun did not accept the surrender of the Xiliang army, Li Dao and Guo Yan were cornered, and it was only after listening to Jia Xu's advice that they held high the banner and counterattacked Chang'an, and then defeated Lu Bu and seized Guanzhong. Think about it... If Li Dao and Guo Yan are the same as the prime minister, coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, how can they not achieve great things? Jia Xu could follow the path of prime minister ten years ago, can he be a mediocre person? The minister has been with him for many years, knows his skills well, and is quite useful. Guo Jia persuaded.

If Yuan Xi was here, he would have been very surprised when he heard Guo Jia's advice. Because of Jia Xu's talent, he is indeed not much worse than Guo Jia.

In later generations, he was called the Poisoner!

What is a poisoner?

It is for the sake of victory, regardless of everything, even if it is the life of tens of millions of soldiers and people.

Cao Cao has always trusted Guo Jia, and before Guo Jia died, he recommended him virtuously, Cao Cao nodded and said: "Okay, I will send someone back to Xuchang immediately to worship Jia Xu as a military advisor." ”

"Well... Wonderful, wonderful.... Guo Jia smiled slightly, his hands naturally drooped, and he landed on the couch.

"Filial piety, filial piety..."

Cao Cao shouted several times in a row, but did not answer.

Guo Jia died suddenly!

The ministers in the hall all knelt down one after another.

Cao Cao mourned silently for a long time, and sighed again and again in his heart: "Qing's talent, rare in a hundred years, can help me seize the world." Pity... Bonghyo, died too early, too early.... ”

"Prime Minister, you want to mourn and change." Xun Yu said recently.

"I'm fine."

Cao Cao got up and took two steps back, and said in a calm tone: "Someone will send Fengxiao's body back to Yingchuan, which is his hometown and his future resting place." The funeral was to be held solemnly, and hundreds of civil and military officials traveled together. ”

"Yes."

Xun You is responsible for this matter.

"There's one more thing you need to do." Cao Cao turned around.

"Please give the Prime Minister's orders."

Cao Cao said: "Before Feng Xiao left, he recommended Jia Xu as a military advisor, after you returned to Xuchang, someone invited him to Pengcheng, and I want to reuse him." But before you ask him, you can't make your purpose clear, and you say... I thought of Dian Wei a few days ago, and blamed him for this crime, and I might want to kill him, and see how he responds. If he escapes, it means that the person is not credible and is killed on the spot. ”
