Lu Bu planned to relocate all the family members from Xuzhou to Jianye, but because there were too many people involved, of course, it was impossible to be airtight.

Lu Su was still preparing for the migration of his family, and Cao Cao, who was far away in Xudu, had already received the news.

Cao Cao called Guo Jia, who had only returned from Yecheng for a few days, to the study.

On his desk was a silk silk with words written all over it.

Guo Jia walked into the study, and after the salute, Cao Cao picked up the silk silk: "Fengxiao take a look at this." ”

stepped forward to take the silk, Guo Jia browsed it and said to Cao Cao: "Lu Fengxian plans to move all the families up and down Xuzhou to Jianye, and he intends to leave a way out for the future. ”

"Feng Xiao thinks he may retreat to Jianye if he can't hold Xuzhou?" Cao Cao asked.

When he got the news, Cao Cao had already guessed Lu Bu's plan.

Inviting Guo Jia over was nothing more than asking him how to deal with it.

Guo Jia replied: "Sun Bofu has been running Wu County for many years, and the people there are much more loyal to Sun Bofu than to Lu Fengxian. Of course, it is impossible for him to move everyone to Wu County and retreat to Jiangdong, the only choice he can have is Jianye. ”

"Jiangdong and the Central Plains are separated by the Yangtze River, if he is allowed to retreat there, it will not be so easy to break it in the future." Cao Cao said: "I originally planned to send troops to fight in a few days, but now it seems that I have to plan in advance." ”

"When does the lord plan to send troops?" Guo Jia asked.

"When does Feng Xiao think it's appropriate to send troops?" Cao Cao didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.

Guo Jia replied: "The Yuan family in Hebei has not yet moved, we rashly sent troops, in case the Yuan family and Lu Bu unite, it will be unfavorable to the lord." ”

Staring at Guo Jia, Cao Cao asked, "Feng Xiao thinks that the Yuan family may join forces with Lu Bu to deal with me?" ”

"No one can say for sure until that day." Guo Jia replied: "Compared with Lu Bu, the lord should be more taboo for the Yuan family. ”

Cao Cao frowned tightly and did not say a word.

Guo Jia is right.

Although he went to Yecheng and persuaded Yuan Shao to send troops, Hebei was still unsure which side he would target before sending troops.

For Yuan Shao, there is no difference between taking Xuzhou and taking Yuzhou.

Moreover, Cao Cao in Yuzhou has a stronger military strength than Lu Bu, and there are more fierce generals under his command than Lu Bu.

After defeating Cao Cao, the Yuan family gained even more benefits than defeating Lu Bu......

"Yuan Benchu didn't send troops, but we can't always wait like this." Cao Cao asked Guo Jia: "What does Feng Xiao think is there to prevent him from moving his family to Jianye without openly crusading against Lu Bu?" ”

"If you just want to stop Lu Bu from moving his family, the best way is of course to send a force of men and horses to quietly block the way." Guo Jia said: "At the same time, the lord can send someone to question. There is no need to ask anything else, just ask him why he moved his family members from Xuzhou to Jianye. ”

"Who does Feng Xiao think is the right person for me to send?" Cao Cao asked.

"Mao Jue can be eloquent, it's better to let him go on a trip." Guo Jia said: "With his eloquence, Lu Bu, who should be able to ask, was speechless. ”

Guo Jia recommended Mao Jue, and Cao Cao nodded silently.

Mao Jue is a person, and Cao Cao is still very familiar with it.

This person is not only eloquent, but also wise and strategic, not inferior to Cao Cao's main strategists.

It is only fitting to send him to Xuzhou.

Very much agreed with Guo Jia's proposal, Cao Cao instructed Xu Chu, who was waiting on the side: "Invite Mao Jue here, and say that I have something important for him to do." ”

Before Xu Chu retreated, Cao Cao asked Guo Jia again: "Feng Xiao thinks it is appropriate to send someone to lead the troops to stop Lu Fengxian's family?" ”

Guo Jia didn't reply, but set his eyes on Xu Chu.

Seeing his intentions from Guo Jia's actions, Xu Chu said to Cao Cao: "If the lord needs it, I can bring someone to stop Lu Bu's family." ”

"Isn't it inappropriate for Zhongkang to bring someone over?" Cao Cao frowned and said, "Lu Bu also has a few fierce generals, in case Zhongkang is entangled by them......"

"Don't worry, my lord." Xu Chu said: "If I bring someone over, I will definitely stop Lu Bu's family. If he was bumped into by a few of his ruthless men, it would be a big deal to fight a few times. ”

"Lu Bu's subordinates Zhao Zilong, Chen Shuzhi, Zhang Wenyuan, Sun Bofu and others are all fierce generals in the world." Cao Cao instructed: "When Zhongkang meets them, don't care if their family members have a chance to leave, just take someone away." ”

"I understand what my lord means." Xu Chu replied: "However, the matter has not been done, how can I come back easily?" Please also ask the lord to send me over this time, as long as Lu Bu is not personally escorted, and the others come, I really won't be afraid of them. ”

Cao Cao nodded and said to Xu Chu: "Zhong Kang will invite Mao Yu first, and you will talk about it later." ”

failed to get Cao Cao's approval immediately, and Xu Chu retreated with some disappointment.

Seeing his departing back, Cao Cao asked Guo Jia, "Feng Xiaozhen thinks it is appropriate for Zhong Kang to go and intercept Lu Bu's family?" ”

"Xu Zhongkang's martial arts are outstanding, even if he meets Lu Bu, he will not be too inferior." Guo Jia said: "It is most appropriate to intercept Lu Bu's family and send him." ”

Cao Cao frowned: "I'm not worried about Zhongkang's martial arts, I'm worried about his temperament." Zhong Kang is brave, I am afraid that when he meets the other party's fierce general, he only knows how to move forward and not know how to retreat. Earlier, I had already folded Dian Wei in Wancheng, in case he had another three long and two short, how could I have a taste in my heart? ”

"I'll explain a few words to General Zhongkang when I go back, and make sure he won't fall in love with the war and won't retreat." Guo Jia replied.

With Guo Jia's promise, Cao Cao finally nodded.

Although he agreed to Guo Jia's proposal, he was still not at ease.

Xu Chu is a fierce general under his command, and he is also the closest general with a foreign surname around him.

It was indeed too risky to ask Xu Chu to go to stop Lu Bu's family.

Seeing that Cao Cao was still worried, Guo Jia said: "Lord, it is not trivial to stop Lu Bu's family. If he can plunder all his family members, he can control Lu Bu in the future, so that he will be jealous of whatever he does. It will also be easier to deal with Lu Bu. ”

"If Zhong Kang encounters an enemy general, what should I let Zhong Kang do?" Cao Cao asked.

Guo Jia replied: "When you meet an enemy general, if you can find an opportunity to kill Lu Bu's family, of course, it is the best. If you don't have a chance, just withdraw it. ”

Cao Cao nodded.

While the two were talking, Xu Chu walked in: "Lord, I invited Mao Jue here." ”

"Let him come in and talk." Cao Cao commanded.

Xu Chu retreated again, but after a moment, he brought in a thin middle-aged scribe.

The scribe followed Xu Chu into the study and greeted Cao Cao and Guo Jia respectively: "Dare to ask the lord, is there something important to call me over?" ”
