Seeing that Cao Cao's brows suddenly furrowed after reading the paperwork, and his face sank, Guo Jia was a little surprised, and then asked:

"Ming Gong, but there is something going on in the state?"

In the first year of Xingping, there was a rebellion in Yanzhou, when Cao Cao led the troops to Xuzhou, and now Cao Cao was out on the expedition, and suddenly received the state government documents, and his face changed suddenly, which shows that there are some major changes.

Although Guo Jia estimated that if there was an accident in the state at the moment, it would be at most one or two small waves set off by sporadic heroes, and it was not worth making a fuss at all, with the means of Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and others, it was enough to suppress it.

But Cao Cao's face was heavy, and Guo Jia, as the counselor of the military aircraft, should ask out loud.

Being asked by Guo Jia like this, Cao Cao also realized his slight gaffe, his face instantly returned to calm, and said with a faint smile:

"There's nothing going on in the state, it's just that the Luoyang Imperial Court sent a messenger to Yanzhou, crowned me as the general of Zhendong, and attacked the Marquis of Feiting."

Judging from the level of the envoys sent by the imperial court in the letter, the Luoyang imperial court also had a certain understanding of the various forces in the Kwantung Prefecture, and it was the imperial servant who was sent to Jingzhou, and the doctor Taizhong who was sent to Jizhou, and when he arrived in Yanzhou, there was only one confessor left.

I believe that when you arrive in Xuzhou and Huainan, the level of the envoy will also decrease.

However, what Cao Cao is concerned about will not be this trivial matter, but the requirements of the Luoyang Imperial Court to let the Kwantung Prefecture County inspect filial piety and Maocai, and deliver grain.

This matter is also very simple to deal with, select a few Peng Shi to go to Beijing, and escort some grain, grass and tribute by the way, you can plug the mouth of the world.

After all, the Luoyang Imperial Court has already added officials to the knighthood, and in disguise admits the fact that the Kwantung Prefecture is divided, and at this time, give some grain and grass and some tribute, just like sending envoys to Chang'an in the past, and exchange some money and grain for the official position of the imperial court.

However, Cao Cao smelled a different flavor from this incident.

This is a test of the attitude of the Kanto Prefecture towards the Luoyang Imperial Court under his control!

"Liangzhou'er, there are some tricks!"

After Cao Cao finished speaking, he handed the documents of the state capital to Guo Jia, turned around and returned to the back of the case.

In the pile of military books and documents built on the left side of the case, there are two letters from Luoyang, which explain to Cao Cao the current situation in Luoyang City.

One is from Zhong Xuan, and the other is from Ding Chong.

Both of them are Huangmen squires, close ministers who wait for the Son of Heaven, and because they have merit in guarding the Son of Heaven, they were also knighted by the Son of Heaven.

Zhong Xuan's calligraphy is rich and graceful, and he can be called the best in the world, but the content of the letter reveals a deep concern about the current situation.

He said: Yan Xing and Duan Xuan, who control the court, are arrogant and domineering, comparable to Li Dao and Guo Yan, but the hidden ambition is even more than Dong Zhuo, and Yan Xing's command is full of talents, and the good ministers and fierce generals are listed together, the authority of the Son of Heaven can be said to be in jeopardy, and the Han court is already stormy.

Ding Chong's calligraphy is inferior to Zhong Xuan, but the content of his letter to Cao Cao just touched Cao Cao's heart.

Ding Chong told Cao Cao that Yan Xing ostensibly shouted the slogan "Rejuvenate the Han Dynasty and return it to the old capital", but in the actual case, he wanted to use the pretext of strengthening the authority of the Han court to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes to deal with the Kwantung Prefecture.

He also said that because of the evil deeds of Dong Zhuo, Li Dao and others, although Yan Xing, who was born in the Xiliang Army, shouted high-sounding slogans, and did not deliberately humiliate the Son of Heaven and courtiers, no matter from the Son of Heaven to the Minister, they all had a deep fear of Yan Xing, who controlled the court with the hussar general and the dignity of the opening of the palace, and even bred hatred.

At the end of the letter, Ding Chong uttered a frightening word, saying that the former Han and Han dynasties were in decline, the Lu family was in power, Liu Zhang, the Marquis of Zhu Xu, and Zhou Bo, the Taiwei, were in order, and they were famous and famous, and they were crowned kings and ministers.

Now that the court is separated from the Yan family, if Cao Cao can contact the heroes of the Kwantung region, send troops to Luo, and speak by his side to the Son of Heaven, even if he can't kill Yan Xing, Duan Xuan and others, but the merit of welcoming the Son of Heaven and chasing away the evil ministers is enough to be a supreme minister.

At that time, Cao Cao compared the contents of these two letters, and after confirming the open and secret battles in Luoyang City, he began to lightly tap the table with his fingers, and slowly thought about the gains and losses of sending troops to Luoyang.

Zhong Xuan and himself are from the same state, plus they are officials in the same dynasty, and they have a friendship with each other, while Ding Chong is his own township party, and his relationship with him is closer.

However, compared with Ding Chong, who is in the court, Cao Cao, who is in the county of Kanto, undoubtedly has a more far-reaching vision.

With the relocation of the imperial court to the west and the east, the displacement of the Son of Heaven occurred, and the Han family has declined, which is a tacit fact that everyone in the world has acquiesced, and the separatist forces with strength and ambition have been unable to hold back their hearts and begin to move.

Liu Yan, who has died, and Yuan Shu in Huainan now, are rumored to have revealed the actions of unusual courtiers.

At this time, it is impossible to organize a coalition army to rush to Luoyang to save the Son of Heaven and chase away the evil ministers, just like in the first year of the first peace, when the Kwantung Prefecture County asked for Dong.

However, if the open and secret battles in Luoyang City are really as fierce as Zhong Xuan and Ding Chong said, then their own opportunity will come, and they will take the opportunity to send troops to Luoyang to rob or welcome the Son of Heaven and bring him back to his territory, which will also be of great help to the implementation of his own strategy in the future.

Like Yan Xing, Cao Cao, who is in the middle of the world, also needs to "correct his name".

Although he is the family of the eunuch, he does not have the name of Yuan Shao IV and the third duke, but he bears the burden of being emasculated, and his strength is not as good as other separatist forces, and his reputation is not as good as other separatist forces.

But if you can get the Son of Heaven, the situation will be very different.

When the Kwantung Coalition Army was begging for Dong, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, two prime people with a strong desire to make meritorious contributions, once talked about what would happen if the matter of seeking Dong was unsuccessful.

At that time, Yuan Shao was the leader of the coalition army, and he was full of spirit, and he talked eloquently, saying that he had set a strategy early in the morning but had not yet perfected - according to the big river in the south, blocking the Yan Dynasty in the north, and Rong Di's people, and fighting for the world in the south.

In contrast, Cao Cao, who had recently defeated Xu Rong's hand, looked shabby, and could only say the words "I am the intelligence of the world, and I am indispensable to control it with the Tao".

These words sound magnificent, but they are empty, and Yuan Shao's strategic goal is clear, and it is determined on the land of Hebei. And where Cao Cao's "intelligence" is, where the "Tao" is, and how "can't", he can't even say where he stands, and there are no facts to support it at all.

It can only be said that Cao Cao was unwilling to be left behind in front of Yuan Shao, who was high-spirited and made great achievements.

Later, after returning to Yanzhou, Bao Xincai, who is also a good friend, told them the feasible strategy at the moment, that is, "and the south of the big river can be regulated, so as to wait for its changes".

At that time, Jizhou had been secretly taken away by Yuan Shao from Han Fu, and Cao Cao and Bao Xin did not have the strength and reputation to compete with Yuan Shao at all.

As it turned out, Bao Xin's strategy was right, and Cao Cao did the same.

Taking advantage of the invasion of Montenegro, Cao Cao gained a foothold in Dongjun; Taking advantage of the invasion of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, Cao Cao obtained the land of Yanzhou; Taking advantage of Guo Gong's defeat, Cao Cao began to occupy Yuzhou counties again.

If there is really such an opportunity now, Cao Cao will definitely seize the opportunity and go to Luoyang to meet the Son of Heaven.

It's just that Yan Xing in Hedong is not an easy character to deal with, he is also stepping on the bones of Wei Gu, Fan Xian, Zhang Yang, Zhang Ji, Guo Yan and others step by step, and Wang Qiu and Liu Dai, who are mediocre in talent, and Guo Gong, who likes to take advantage of the fire to rob, is not at the same level as the characters.

To welcome the Son of Heaven from Luoyang, you still need to act carefully!

Thinking of this, Cao Cao, who had already left the candidate for Runan behind, suddenly broke free from his thoughts, he raised his eyes to look at Guo Jia, who had finished reading the paperwork and was standing on the side, waiting, his heart moved, and he asked:

"Fengxiao, would you like to make a trip to Luoyang for me?"

Guo Jia had just finished reading the documents of the state capital, although he was not able to see the fire like Cao Cao because he did not know the open and secret battles in Luoyang City, but he was very intelligent, and he also saw that there was a different inside story hidden in the documents.

At this time, when he heard Cao Cao's inquiry, his heart was shocked, and he immediately rejoiced:

"Jia is willing to be blunt, dare to disobey his fate!"

Guo Jiaxin joined Cao Cao, but he did not make meritorious contributions, but he was in charge of the military aircraft, which is easy to attract envy and resentment. Guo Jiacai is bold and bold, obviously seeing this burden of finding out the inside story of Luoyang as an opportunity for himself to make a name for himself, rather than a thorny problem.

Cao Cao smiled, Guo Jianian is only young, and he still needs to be tempered, it is not suitable for him to act as a positive envoy to contact those sleek court ministers, at most he can only act as a deputy envoy and perform some other things for himself.

However, Cao Cao is not in a hurry to tell the truth about this matter, what he likes the most is not only Guo Jia's intelligence, but also the young energy that dares to be the first in him.

The two gentlemen and ministers talked about the Luoyang court, and then discussed some military information in Yuzhou, and then Guo Jia said goodbye and left.

Cao Cao, who was also in charge of military and political affairs and had every opportunity, was still not idle, and in order to carry out the strategy later, he was going to write a private letter to Yuan Shao in Yecheng first.

Then, he had to convene a military meeting to announce to the generals the candidates for the deployment of troops and the generals in Yuzhou.

Cao Cao, who had a full schedule, immediately rolled out the Zuo Bo paper, which was popular in the circle of upper-class characters, dipped his pen in ink, and prepared to write a letter to Yuan Shao with the calligraphy he was good at.

It's just that the letter was obviously intended to be written to Yuan Shao, but after a few words of "Cao Dun's first brother's foot", another blurry face appeared in Cao Cao's mind.

At the age of thirty, he ascended to the hussar, opened the mansion, lived in the extreme of the ministers, and was terrible in the future.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao, who has always been open-minded, couldn't help but put pen to paper, looked at the curtain of the big tent, rubbed his temples slightly, and sighed.

"His ambition is also my worry."
