When Xu You said this, the faces of everyone present changed greatly, Xun You's face was ugly, Jia Xu lowered his head to drink tea, he didn't seem to hear it, but the hand holding the teacup shook violently, and even the tea spilled.

Xu You himself seemed to know nothing, or rather, he had no scruples, looking down at the fire of the stove, the corners of his mouth turned up, and he shook his head.

Cao Cao stood up suddenly, staring at Xu You with red eyes in the horror of Xun You and Jia Xu.

After a long time, Cao Cao suddenly laughed wildly: "Hahaha......, Xu You, Xu Ziyuan is really a good medicine, this wind will be fine in an instant, hahaha......"

Jia Xu and Xun You glanced at each other, and in each other's eyes, they saw a trace of jealousy and fear hidden deeply.

Cao Cao just glanced at it casually, smiled, didn't seem to hear anything else, paced around the room several times, and suddenly stared at Jia Xu and said, "Wenhe, in your opinion, what should we do now?" ”

Looking at Cao Cao's red eyes like a beast, Jia Xu suddenly felt a chill in his heart, feeling stared at by a wild beast, if he didn't say a little bit, his head would fall to the ground.

Jia Xu lowered his head and hugged his fists and said: "Duke Wei, the minister also said that this victory will be a battle, and defeat will also be a battle!" As for the result, it depends on the general's bravery and ability to lead the troops. ”

Jia Xu said it very vaguely, but everyone present was the smartest person in the world, and immediately heard the obscure pessimistic view in it.

Cao Cao was a little dissatisfied, and asked in a deep voice: "After this battle, how will you win?" What about defeat? ”

Jia Xu has always been wise and self-satisfied, and it can be seen from his life in history that he has been from Dong Zhuo, Zhang Xiu, and Cao Cao before and after, but no matter where he goes, he is a high-ranking official, never down, and his life has died well.

Jia Xu lowered his head and couldn't see Cao Cao's eyes at the beginning, which is very in line with etiquette, and it will definitely not make people disgusted, but it will make people feel respected, Jia Xu himself is not affected by the other party and continued: "After this battle, if you win, retake Xudu, if it is cold today, it is still not suitable to fight again, Liu Yong will inevitably retreat Jingzhou, and order Guan Yu to strictly guard Kunyang and Xiangcheng, force Xu Du, and wait for the opportunity to move." Our army can send more manpower to strictly guard against Xudu, Hujiao, and Chenjun, and at the same time stabilize the north and Qing and Xu, and Liu Yong will also try his best to stabilize the rear, and the two sides will have a short-term period of peace. ”

"If this battle is defeated...... Jia Xu raised his head slightly and glanced at Cao Cao, Xun You, and Xu You, and immediately lowered his head and said, "If it is defeated, then Yuzhou will be lost immediately, and Qing, Yan, and Xu Sanzhou will immediately return to become the forward positions of the two armies, and with the wisdom of Pang Tong and others under Liu Yong, they will never give up the Tiger Prison Pass, and they must not be able to hold it for long with 3,000 soldiers. ”

"Go on!" Cao Cao suppressed the anger in his heart, and almost ordered with a roar, if Jia Xu didn't say anything at this time, it was estimated that the head would fall to the ground immediately.

"No!" Jia Xutou lowered his head again and said: "If this is the case, the soldiers are tired, there is a shortage of food and grass, and the morale is low, our army will no longer be able to fight with Liu Yong in a short time, and the two sides can only negotiate peace." Fortunately, the north has been pacified, as long as the Duke of Wei has time, relying on the population and financial resources of the four northern states and the seven states of Qing and Xu Yan, at most two years, not only can it be restored to the past, but even in the previous step, at that time, it can follow Yuan Shao's example, wave his troops south, and destroy Jingzhou in one fell swoop, leaving the land of Yizhou, a corner of peace, not a trouble! ”

"Hahaha......" Cao Cao laughed suddenly, "Jia Wenhe is really resourceful and has seen it thoroughly!" Indeed, this victory or defeat still does not matter, it just needs a big battle to boost morale. According to Wenhe's words, he was calm for two years, and after two years, he went south in one fell swoop and leveled Jingzhou! ”

"Wei Gong is wise!" Seeing that Cao Cao was in a good mood, everyone was also relaxed, and among the princes in the world who could still laugh so optimistically at this time, I am afraid that Cao Cao was the only one, and everyone immediately congratulated.

However, Xun You suddenly asked: "Wenhe is really talented!" However, if Liu Yong wins this battle, even if Duke Wei plans to negotiate peace, will he obediently agree with the momentum of a big victory? ”

Wen He sneered: "I can't help him!" At that time, he will have to promise if he agrees, and he will have to agree if he doesn't agree! ”

"Oh? It seems that Wen He already has a clever plan, haha, come on, take a sip of wine and continue! Cao Cao was overjoyed, and personally picked up the wine and filled it with Jia Xu.

Jia Xu doesn't talk much on weekdays, and it's rare to be willing to speak tonight, since he says so, he must have a plan.

And, more importantly, if Jia Xu makes a move, there is no extraordinary!

Jia Xu hurriedly respectfully and then gratefully: "Thank you Duke Wei!" ”

After drinking, Jia Xu looked at the eager eyes of the three and said: "If you want to negotiate peace, Liu Yong will naturally not agree easily, even if she wants to agree, she must calm down some of her subordinates, then it depends on whether the lord is willing to give up something." ”

The first half of the sentence is understood by everyone, especially Cao Cao, who is in his position, naturally understands that sometimes it is not just a matter of making a decision by himself, if it is forced, there will inevitably be internal problems. But the second half of the sentence made him feel a little ominous: "What is it?" ”

Jia Xu looked at Cao Cao with a serious expression and said word by word: "The land of a state!" ”

"What?" Xun You and Xu You suddenly stood up, staring at Jia Xu with hatred and exclaimed.

Jia Xu smiled bitterly, he knew that this would be the case, how could anyone who gave up the territory that had been fought hard with human life and blood and sweat give up, if it wasn't for Jia Xu to follow him for some years, otherwise they would all suspect that he was a spy of the enemy army, and they all looked bad.

The smile on Cao Cao's face suddenly disappeared, and the thick killing intent in his eyes shot straight out like a sharp sword, almost immediately about to go berserk and kill Jia Xu.

"To ...... What...... Place! Cao Cao couldn't wait to cut Jia Xu with a thousand knives.

Jia Xu said cautiously: "Give up the part of Chen left south of Bianshui and all of Yuzhou, and give it to Liu Yong!" And ......"

"Jia Xu, you are bold!" Xun You was immediately furious. Xu You sneered in his glare, but he was extremely happy in his heart, this is Jia Xu looking for his own death, as far as he knows, Guo Fengxiao ordered Xun Wen to be forced to commit suicide soon, leaving Jia Xu and Xun You, if Jia Xu is eliminated, then he Xu You will have no more opponents.

"And ...... Where? "At this moment, Cao Cao is simply a black bear that has become furious, and he can fall into his infinitely powerful clutches at any time.

"Give up south of Huaishui to Sun Quan!" After Jia Xu said these words, he suddenly seemed to use most of his strength, gasping for breath, and under Cao Cao's powerful oppression, he couldn't stand it.
