Chapter 1859: The Battle of Shouchun (140)

People's hearts are separated from their stomachs, not to mention that the interests are far greater than the so-called confidants and friends, and in the end, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are not opposed, so ah, Cao Yuan, who looks monolithic now, just looks like it on the surface, what is the real situation, whether there are cracks, only knock and knock to know.

It is said that the Jizhou forces are intertwined and the structure is complex, but Cao Cao's internal situation is only a lot more, but there is one thing that Yuan Shao can never compare to Cao Cao, in the eyes of the former, no one in this world can be trusted, and everyone will be suspected by him, although his consistent attitude is to use people to be suspicious, and to use suspicious people, and even become the principle of employing people that he is proud of.

This is the reason for his character, on the other hand, Cao Cao, to be honest, there are more headaches for him than Yuan Shao, after all, in addition to the clans under Cao Cao's account, there are also court officials, although they are all officials in this Sikong Mansion, they can naturally divide so many waves of people in the region, fortunately, these people can be unanimous with the outside world, otherwise Cao Cao will only have more headaches.

Cao Cao will not pay too much attention to this, this is originally a kind of power technique, two groups of people will fight, it would be good for him to master this degree, not to mention that there is a trump card, that is Guo Jia, in his own words, people don't want to see dogs, although the position is high enough, but no one is willing to take care of it, which makes Cao Cao more at ease, no matter how he fights on both sides, Cao Cao is just used as a reference to deal with it, and finally decides the key to a thing, but in the end it is to make a decision with Guo Jia.

In addition to the subordinate officials and court officials of Sikong Mansion, there is actually a force that is rising, that is, the clan family power, Cao Cao has always deeply understood one thing, he can have today, the family is great, although his family is difficult to compare with the Yuan family, but if there is no family, it is difficult for him to have today's achievements, after all, in this world, Liu Lan can only rely on people with foreign surnames to have today's achievements He is the only one, in Cao Cao's words, if he and Liu Lan are exchanged, he may not be able to have Liu Lan's current achievements.

Cao Cao, who was stationed in the pavilion, didn't know what was happening in Lujiang now, and even because of the battle of Lujiang, he was trapped, although he wanted to go back to Xudu a few times, but Guo Jia's words kept reminding him that he couldn't be blind, if Shouchun was given to Liu Lan in vain, then where would he be willing to pay all his efforts?

He can't do the thing of making wedding dresses for others, not to mention that because of some other reasons, he retired and was occupied by Liu Lan, and it would be too difficult to recapture Shouchun in the future, although Shouchun is not like Guanzhong Bashu, nor like Jiangdong Jizhou, there are natural barriers, but at the beginning he did not take Lujiang, but thought about taking food from Liu Lan's mouth in the future, it was simply a fool's dream.

And taking Shouchun and Guangling is of strategic significance, and if you can't take these two places, not only to resist and population, the key is that Cao Cao can not arrange a large number of soldiers for defense, he can completely concentrate the scattered troops, as long as Cao's army is completely assembled, then the stranger is Yuan Shao, even if it is Liu Lan, there is a possibility of a war.

Cao Cao was originally stationed in the pavilion, but after the first wave of scouts came back to Lujiang unharmed, coupled with the continuous rain, Cao Cao returned to Ping'a, and now he is waiting for only one thing, that is, the Xuzhou army retreats, and now there is nothing more concerned about him than this matter, in terms of his analysis, although Liu Lan has now filmed nearly forty or fifty thousand people in Lujiang to attack Ji Ling, but there has been no result for such a long time, coupled with the timely appearance of Taohuaxun, the Xuzhou army is not far from retreating. ,

Cao Cao waved his hand at Guo Jia's suggestion, and the troops returned to Ping'a again, their pavilion is not far from Ping'a, since it is mainly to inquire about the news, then why not investigate in the city, it is better than stationing in this broken pavilion that has fled the desert and is empty.

The troops from departure to return to Ping'a, it took less than a day, on the second day it was clear that the troops had begun to enter the city one after another, returning to Ping'a again, Cao Cao still subconsciously looked up at the county town tower not far away, such a small city, if it weren't for the defense of himself, Shouchun wouldn't care how high and thick his wall was, after all, it was a small county that was not in the stream or the last stream of Shouchun, there was no need to spend this unjust money, but because of Cao Cao, At that time, the first thing Zhang Xun did when he came to Ping'a was to start to rebuild all the defensive measures of Ping'a, although it was only a small county, but also because of Zhang Xun's special reasons, Ping'a was completely renewed.

And the facts have also proved a point, Zhang Xun really built Ping'a into a strong fortress, large city defense equipment, and even hoarded a lot of stone rolling wood, I heard that the woods within a few miles around Ping'a have been cut down, in the past, except for large households do not need to sell firewood to buy, and small people and small households are their own backs, now well, Ping'a's situation is almost the same as Luoyang, and even makes Ping'a more and more people picking up firewood, and the price of firewood is also rising, after all, it is necessary to go a few miles away to collect firewood, The cost of hard work always increases.

Passing through the city gate and entering the city, Cao Cao returned to the familiar county mansion, this time suddenly returned to Ping'a, many people under the account were not sure about Cao Cao's attitude, whether to withdraw, or to stay for a long time, one after another people inquired about the news, but in the end they were sent back in doubt, regretted to the barracks, and did not get any answers.

Douyu, these people who inquire about the news, are all brainless kinds, and they don't want to think about what insider information they can get from Dian Wei's mouth, it doesn't make sense to inquire about the county government, but there is one place, which must and is the only one who can find out the inside information, and that is Guo Jia.

These people are completely different from those who went to the county mansion, they can be regarded as Cao Gong's staff and think tanks, but it is not so easy to find out this news, even if it is Xun You, it is in vain, but in the entire Cao military camp, there is only one person who has a very heavy weight in front of Guo Jia, and that is Zhu Ling.

When he came to visit Guo Jia in person, those who had eaten the closed door were dumbfounded and watched him be respectfully invited into the bedroom battle, just entered the middle hall, Guo Jia had already greeted him, and said with a smile: "General Zhu, you are a rare guest, why are you looking for me today to inquire about the news?" ”

The two have been friends for many years, they are confidants in Jizhou, and now they are friends who are irreversible, if it were someone else, Guo Jia would never care, but he, no matter from which angle, would not slack off.

Zhu Ling and Guo Jia exchanged speculations that might happen next, after all, it was Cao Cao who was able to choose to leave Yuan Shao at Yuan Shao's most beautiful moment, such a man with vision, courage and courage, as soon as he opened his mouth, he had almost guessed Sikong's decision, although Guo Jia did not admit it, but he did not deny it, which made Zhu Ling immediately shocked, he made himself guess, this time it was a simple adjustment, and he would not rush to Shouchun if he did not leave.

People's hearts are separated from their stomachs, not to mention that the interests are far greater than the so-called confidants and friends, and in the end, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are not opposed, so ah, Cao Yuan, who looks monolithic now, just looks like it on the surface, what is the real situation, whether there are cracks, only knock and knock to know.
