Chapter 858: Temporary Truce of War (Part II)
"What Cheng Gong said is not right. In my opinion, it is precisely because Liu Xuande's foundation is unstable that he should take advantage of this emptiness and raise an army to get rid of him. Liu Xuande is a superb person, the city is very deep, and he is assisted by Zhuge Liang. Now it has obtained the land of the seven counties of Hanshang. If he is the day, Liu Xuande took advantage of the fierce battle between King Wei and Wen Bufan in the northwest, seized the land of Yizhou, and won the foundation of the world. Even if the king of Wei attacked the northwest, the army had to recuperate for three years before he could fight again. Liu Xuande had to recuperate for three years, and according to Shouyi and Jing, his wings have been completed. Even if the King of Wei wants to go south again, it will inevitably be a long-term fierce battle! If it is then, Liu Xuande will unite with the Jiangdong Sun clan and fight in the south, but I am afraid that he will lose more and win less!! ”
Xun You has always been upright and fearless, and when he said sharp words, he suddenly said that the faces of the Cao family in the palace changed for a while. Cao Cao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he suddenly looked at Jia Xu, who was concentrating on the side. Jia Xu noticed that Cao Cao's eyes were coming, and he quickly attended Shi Libingdao.
"What the two Ming Gong said is reasonable. In his humble opinion, it is Wen Han's sworn brother who is guarding Hanoi now, and Guan Yunchang, the world-famous 'martial saint'. Guan Yunchang gathered 150,000 heavy troops to guard Hanoi, which was intended to prevent the King of Wei from raising troops to conquer the northwest. There are famous generals in the northwest who are heavily guarded, and there are peerless talents such as Xi Zhicai and Tian Feng to assist the left and right. If the king of Wei wants to conquer the northwest, he must raise at least 300,000 soldiers and horses to have a seventy percent chance of victory.
If three years ago, the King of Wei did not raise troops and horses to attack the northwest, and now he has raised 300,000 troops, which can be done. But because three years ago, the king of Wei raised troops to invade Hanoi and annexed the state, and he did not get an inch of land, and he spent a lot of grain and grass. Now another 300,000 troops will be raised, and if the war is unfavorable, they will be defeated. Although the king of Wei had a heavy army in hand, due to repeated defeats, there was a shortage of food, and it was difficult to raise troops to attack the surrounding forces.
On the contrary, in the land of Jingzhou, although Zhuge Liang was in charge, Jingzhou was trapped by the three forces at this time and could not advance or retreat. Xu Huang, the general of the northwest, led 30,000 troops to guard the Shangyong realm, and Sun Ce also sent Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and other generals to gather troops in Changsha and Guiyang to eyeing Jingzhou. According to the spies, Jingzhou's troops were no more than 80,000. In order to ensure the safety of Jingzhou, Zhuge Liang had to divide his troops to guard various dangerous areas. If the King of Wei wants to raise an army, he only needs to raise more than 120,000 troops, and he has a seventy-percent chance of winning if he combines all the heroes and talents under his command. ”
When Jia Xu said this, he closed his mouth and said no more. With Cao Cao's extraordinary wisdom, some words don't have to be too clear, Cao Cao has his own set of analysis.
Cao Cao listened to this, bowed his head slightly, and groaned. After a while, Xun Yu attended and said.
"King Wei, in the Central Plains nowadays, there is not enough grain. If the king of Wei wants to hold on to the war for a long time, he should be cautious. ”
As soon as Xun Yu's words fell, Cao Cao's fine eyes suddenly shot out two fine lights, and he laughed loudly.
"Haha! What Wen Ruo said is very true. But if you want to conquer Jingzhou in the south, I don't know if the princes have a clever plan to teach the lonely? ”
Jia Xu had already made up his mind in his heart, and as soon as Cao Cao asked, he respectfully bowed his hand.
"In the past, the King of Wei once named Zhou Yu as the Taishou of Nanjun, but Liu Bei did not give up the land of Nanjun and handed over to Zhou Yu. The Sun family of Eastern Wu had already plotted against Jingzhou, so the King of Wei might as well send an envoy to Eastern Wu to marry Sun Ce, and the two families of Cao and Sun joined forces to jointly send troops to attack Jingzhou. At the same time, he promised Sun Ce that if he could conquer Jingzhou one day, he would give up Jiangxia and Nanjun to Eastern Wu. Sun Ce must be overjoyed and promise to do so. If the Cao and Sun families jointly set up troops in Jingzhou, even if Zhuge Kongming had the strategy of Jiang Ziya and Zhang Zifang, it would be difficult to resist! ”
"Hahahaha!! The plan is very good!! ”
Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this, and laughed loudly. Then I thought that Wuhou Sun Ce had a sister named Sun Shangxiang, who was born beautiful and moving, with the appearance of a sinking fish and a wild goose, and was virtuous and courteous, and could be used as a broom, and was an extremely famous beauty in Jiangdong.
The so-called heroes love beauties, not to mention Cao Cao, a peerless hero who has not been one of them for 10,000 years. Cao Cao's heart is together, and he has the heart of taking Sun Shangxiang as a concubine, and he is about to open his mouth. Who knew that Xun Yu was the first to say.
What Jia Gong said was very true. As far as Yu knows, Wuhou Sun Ce has a sister named Sun Shangxiang, who is the phoenix among people. The prince Cao Ang is wise and martial, and he has won the wind of the king of Wei, and he is the dragon among people. The dragon and the phoenix are matched, and they are the right match. The king of Wei could give Sun Ce a marriage for the son. In the name of the son, Sun Ce will definitely agree! ”
As soon as Xun Yu's words fell, Cao Cao's face suddenly darkened, and his eyes suddenly shot out two sharp rays of light, approaching Xun Yu.
Cao Cao was moody, he was still smiling brightly just now, but suddenly his face was dark and angry. A group of Cao clan's civil and military officers, at a loss, Cao Cao snorted coldly, got up suddenly, and flicked his sleeves to turn into the back hall. And all the ministers were afraid, and they all bowed down to the ground.
When the time came, the seats parted unhappily. Xun Yu frowned deeply, and sighed again and again, not knowing how he had offended Cao Cao. Previously, because of Cao Cao's establishment of the king, Xun Yu had offended Cao Cao, and since then, Cao Cao has become alienated from Xun Yu.
Xun Yu thought about it, depressed, and sighed again. At this moment, Guo Jia walked up to Xun Yu with a playful smile and said with a smile.
"Hehe, does Xun Gong have something on his mind?"
When Xun Yu saw Guo Jia, his eyes lit up. Guo Jia can be said to be Cao Cao's side, the advisor who knows Cao Cao's heart the most. Xun Yu hurriedly bowed his hand and asked Guo Jia for advice.
Guo Jia smiled even more, raised his eyebrows, and pretended to joke.
"Oh? Xun Gong has the talent of Wang Zuo, and is praised by the world as Xiao He of the world. Jia is just a vulgar person, what can he teach Xun Gong? ”
"Guo Langzi!! You!! Wow!! You heartless prodigal son, you were seriously ill in bed in the past, if it weren't for Xun, you would have died a long time ago. Now you see that I am not loved by the king, but I have come to the well!! ”
Xun Yu's black and white beard was blown, pretending to be like thunder. Seeing this, Guo Jia hurriedly apologized, and then secretly pulled Xun Yu aside and said quietly.
"Wen Ruo, are you wondering why the king suddenly retreated in anger in the main hall today?"
When Xun Yu heard this, his anger faded, and he hurriedly asked Guo Jia.
"Could it be that Fengxiao is not good, why do you know why the king is angry?"
"Haha. If you are a writer, you should be really wooden. As everyone knows, everyone has a love for beauty. What's more, our kings are heroes in the world, and in the year of heroism, Sun Shangxiang's reputation has long been spread in the Central Plains. The king has long had the heart to accept. If you Xun Wen don't know the king's intentions, but you ask the king to marry his beloved woman to the prince. The king was embarrassed and had no choice but to retreat in anger. ”
I saw the prodigal son Guo Jia's misty eyes, flashing a trace of **, and said with a smile to Xun Yu. Xun Yu was shocked and exclaimed.
"The king actually has the heart to take Sun Shangxiang as a concubine? But the king is half a hundred years old, and his sideburns are gray, not to mention that the king and Sun Ce's father are the same generation. If the king accepts it, this is true! It is not in line with the ceremony, it is not in harmony with the ceremony!! Not to mention the news of this matter, how will people in the world make fun of it, Wu Hou's sister, who is at a good age, how can she respond to this marriage!! ”
"Hahaha!! vulgar, if the text is really vulgar!! If the king puts etiquette first in everything in his life, how can he get the current trend?! What's more, if you know why the king loves this Sun Shangxiang so much? ”
Guo Jia laughed when he heard this, and his laughter was extremely indulgent. Xun Yu was surprised when he heard this, recalling Cao Cao's life, from offering a knife to assassinate Dong Zhuo, raising the eighteenth princes to crusade against Dong thieves, to coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and now sitting on the throne of the King of Wei. Which is not an earth-shattering act of rebellion. Xun Yu couldn't help but shudder, and hurriedly said to Guo Jia.
"I want to hear about it."
"Wen Ruo doesn't know, Wu Hou's sister, although she is a woman, she is better than a man. It was once said that if I were not a hero in the world, I would not be a hero. This word later reached the ears of the king, and the king was full of praise for the sister of Wu Hou, not only loved her beauty, but also loved her talent, and since then she has the heart to accept. At present, the king of Wei is the world, and he can be said to be the first hero in the world. If the king of Wei asks for marriage, even if Sun Bofu should not, then Sun Shangxiang will also respond!! ”
Guo Jia said sharply, if Cao Cao was on the side, when he heard these words, he would definitely cover his palms and say hello! Cao Cao and Guo Jia have similar temperaments, and they are both Da
g Uninhibited, uninhibited amorous man. Therefore, Guo Jia is known as the strategist who knows Cao Cao best, and there is also a basis for reason.
When Xun Yu heard this, his face changed rapidly, blue and purple for a while, and he secretly paid in his heart, if Cao Cao really accepted Sun Shangxiang as a concubine, the former Jiangdong Tiger Sun Wentai Jiuquan knew it, but he was afraid that he would be so angry that he would come out of the underworld and return to the world to seek revenge on Cao Cao!
However, Xun Yu understands that Cao Cao's temperament, as long as he makes up his mind, no one can stop him. Even if he admonished him to the death, on the premise that he would not harm the overall situation, Cao Cao would not listen to his ideas for the most part. Xun Yu sighed secretly in his heart and bowed to Guo Jia.
"Thank you for your filial piety. Tomorrow Yu Zizi should know how to win the king's favor. ”
Guo Jia looked at Xun Yu's extremely aggrieved appearance, couldn't help laughing, and said softly.
"Huh. You don't have to. The king has always acted with his own measure. As for Sun Bofu, he only married a sister, but he got Jiangxia and Nanjun counties in return, why not? At the same time, if you ask who is the first male lord in the world, it must be the king. It turned out that Sun Shangxiang had a word first, if she could marry the king, it would be a blessing for her. ”
Xun Yu's brows trembled, looking at Guo Jiana
G's smile, I only felt a tremor in my heart, and secretly said that this Guo Fengxiao is also a restless master who ignores etiquette and etiquette, fears that the world will not be chaotic, and is restless!
The two talked secretly for a while, and then Xun Yu thanked Guo Jia for a banquet.
The next day, the ministers of the Cao clan gathered again. Cao Cao sat on the high hall, his face cold, as if yesterday's anger had not been extinguished. The so-called companion is like a companion tiger, and when the ministers saw this, they were nervous and uneasy, and they didn't dare to speak. Only Guo Jia had a light smile on his face, and secretly glanced at Xun Yu.
Xun Yu comprehended and attended the ceremony. When Cao Cao saw that it was Xun Yu, he didn't like it very much, snorted coldly, and then heard Xun Yu speak.
"The minister's words yesterday were not thoughtful. I hope that the king is not strange. The minister once heard that the sister of Wu Hou once said, if it were not a hero in the world, I would not be fine. Although Cao Ang, the son of the world, is a dragon among people, he has not yet been able to talk about the four words of heroes in the world. If the king wants to marry Dongwu, I'm afraid he will have to find someone else! ”
When Cao Cao heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he asked with a squint.
"Oh? According to Wen Ruo's opinion, who do you think is suitable? ”
Xun Yu secretly paid attention to the change in Cao Cao's expression, and saw a strong ** color flashing in his eyes, and immediately knew in his heart that as Guo Jia said, Cao Cao had the intention of accepting Sun Shangxiang. Xun Yu hurriedly bowed his hand and said.
"Sun Shangxiang is the daughter of Sun Wentai, the Jiangdong Tiger, the sister of the little overlord Sun Bofu, and his father and brother are all heroes in the world. According to Yu's opinion, only the world's number one hero can make him fall in love!! ”
As soon as Xun Yu's words fell, all the ministers of the Cao family immediately exclaimed. It seemed extremely surprising that Xun Yu, who is strict in etiquette on weekdays, would say such words. Who is the number one hero in the world, everyone naturally understands in their hearts. But this hero is a person of the same generation as Sun Wentai, if Sun Shangxiang is accepted as a concubine, it is really incompatible!
