The sound of hurried footsteps interrupted the short silence, but Jiang Jian hurriedly came in from outside the door, and arched his hand to Lu Bu and said, "Lord, I just got the news that Cao Cao's soldiers and horses have crossed the Yellow River and stationed troops in Liyang." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

"So fast?" Lu Bu frowned, from Lu Bu's invasion of Jizhou to now, it has only been half a month, and even if the news here reaches Xuchang as soon as possible, and then mobilizes troops and horses, it is far from fifteen days to be able to react, unless, Cao Cao has already prepared.

"What is happening on Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan?" Jia Xu looked at Jiang Jian and asked.

"Yuan Shang retreated into the Bohai Sea and is actively preparing for war, Yuan Tan was originally stationed in Liyang, but was defeated by Cao Cao, and now he has also returned to Qingzhou, and the specific movements are unknown." Jiang Jian bowed and said.

"The enemy situation is unknown, and our army's foothold in Jizhou is not stable, so it is not appropriate to move lightly." Jia Xu shook his head lightly.

"Closely monitor Cao Cao's movements, but if there is any trouble, report it immediately! All cities, strengthen vigilance, and send someone to summon Zhang Liao, end the war in Youzhou as soon as possible, and rush to the aid of Jizhou! Lu Bu nodded, looked at Jiang Jian and said.

"Whoa!" Jiang Jian hurriedly nodded in agreement and walked away quickly.

"Xiaozhi, where is our second batch of slave soldiers now?" Lu Bu said in a deep voice.

"It's already out of Zhangye, and now it should have entered the walnut realm, and within a month, it should be able to arrive." Fa Zheng bowed down.

"Guangping County has been obtained by our army, let Fa Yan transfer another batch of lawyers, the plan can be promoted in Guangping County first, and Guangping County will be stabilized as soon as possible, and the affairs of Guangping County will be handled by you." After frowning and thinking for a while, Lu Bu said in a deep voice, he could see that neither Jia Xu nor Li Ru was in favor of taking risks, only Fa Zheng was willing to gamble with him, this has nothing to do with wisdom, but courage, Fa Zheng is young and enthusiastic, and whether Jia Xu or Li Ru is now more inclined to be conservative.

"Whoa." Fa Zheng nodded in agreement.

"The rainy season has arrived." Jia Xu raised his head, looked at the sky, and said leisurely.

"Huh?" Lu Bu glanced at Jia Xu puzzled.

Jia Xu looked at Lu Budao with a smile: "The minister just reminded the lord that if the Zhangshui bursts the embankment, it may become a disaster." ”

"Oh." Lu Bu was slightly abrupt, glanced at Jia Xu angrily, and said it directly, it was really unpleasant to beat around the bush like this.

……

Liyang, Cao Cao's camp.

"Lord, this is the news that has just come back from Yecheng, you can take a look." Guo Jia handed over a letter to Cao Cao and said with a wry smile: "This battle, I'm afraid it's hard to fight, cough~"

"Oh?" Cao Cao took the letter suspiciously, it was the first time he heard such a dejected speech from Guo Jia's tone, you must know that today's Cao Cao is not the same as the battle of Guandu in the past, and although Lu Bu's momentum is strong, it is far less powerful than Yuan Shao, who was in the land of Sizhou.

"It's just that I didn't expect Lu Bu to move so fast." Cao Cao shook his head and sighed while opening the letter, it turns out that everything was expected by Guo Jia, there was a problem within Jizhou, and Yuan Shao's death directly led to the split of Jizhou, but these added up to not have the shock of Lu Bu appearing just right to take advantage of the chaos to break through Yecheng.

This is also too coincidental, should it be said that Lu Bu is lucky or that he is capable of everything, as if he calculated that Yuan Shao would die, and when Yuan Cao's two families were besieging together, he dared to mobilize troops and horses to attack Yecheng.

Even if you come a day early or a day late, the result is not as bad as it is now.

"Ahem~ Compared with what was mentioned in the letter, these things are all minor problems." Guo Jia felt a panache in his chest, as if he couldn't even breathe, and hurriedly wiped a jade bottle from his arms with trembling hands, poured out some powder from it and swallowed it, his originally pale face flushed with a strange flush, and his spirit instantly rejuvenated a lot.

"Fengxiao, these five stones are scattered, don't eat them again." Cao Cao glanced worriedly at Guo Jia, whose spirit suddenly turned from weak to excited, and sighed.

"It's okay, haha." Guo Jia shook his head, pointed to the letter and said, "The lord will take a look at this first." ”

Cao Cao sighed helplessly, lowered his head and opened the letterhead, and quickly browsed down, gradually, Cao Cao's brows frowned slightly, and after a long time, he looked up at Guo Jia and said, "Yellow scarf? ”

"It doesn't count." Guo Jia shook his head and said with a solemn face: "But it's more terrifying than the yellow scarf, Lu Bu wants to cut off the foundation of the family!" ”

"In fact, as early as the time of Yongliang, Lu Bu has begun to implement these plans, when Yonghuang has been abandoned for a long time, it is not too obvious, but now Lu Bu has entered Jizhou, but it is different from the remote place of Yongliang, Jizhou has a large population, fertile land, and it is a place where celebrities gather, Lu Bu is known as the wolf Juxu, and it is even more difficult to gain a foothold here."

Cao Cao nodded, this is also an important reason why he dared to let Lu Bu develop, and now it seems that Lu Bu's appetite is not so small.

"Lu Bu obviously knows his weaknesses, and he knows that if he wants to compete with the lord for the support of the family, he is at a disadvantage congenitally, so from the beginning, Lu Bu never thought of relying on the family." Guo Jia tapped his fingers on the table and said: "To stir up contradictions between the family and the people, and then establish credibility with the law, in the words of Lu Bu, is the credibility of the government." ”

"Once this credibility is established, and there will always be some contradictions between the scholars and the people, Lu Bu will occupy an advantage in the hearts of the people, and even distribute the land to the people, invisibly, he will gain the support of the people, he does not have to pay a penny, just use the people to deal with the family, and then use the food of the family to envelop the people, this hand is beautiful, and everything is reasonable, those families who were condemned by Lu Bu, even if they want to oppose it, it is difficult to compete with Lu Bu in terms of righteousness."

"It seems that Lu Bu did not get any benefits, and he offended the family in vain, but in fact, it shook the foundation of the family, without the land, how can the family hire tenants, and the people have the land, and they no longer need to rely on the family gentry, and Lu Bu is undoubtedly the biggest beneficiary among them, the tax burden has not been reduced, but he has won the support of the people." Guo Jia said in a deep voice.

"Isn't this move arsoning the people into bandits?" Cao Cao frowned and said, "How is this different from the yellow scarf?" ”

"This is precisely where Lu Bu excels." Guo Jia sighed: "Do you remember the Department of Justice? ”

"Legalist, naturally remember." Cao Cao nodded.

"At first, my subordinates also thought it was just a legalist, but now it seems that behind this is probably what Lu Bu began to prepare after the establishment of the Department of Justice, and the money and food he invested in the Department of Justice is probably not less than the army, or even more." Guo Jia pointed to the letter and said: "I'm afraid he expected that there would be this day, the existence of the Department of Justice is not only to restrain the family, but also to restrain the people, but there are false accusers, and they will also be punished heavily, impartially." ”

"Hiss~" Cao Cao suddenly gasped and looked at Guo Jia in shock: "What a big ambition." ”

"Yes, what an ambition!" Guo Jia sighed: "This person is somewhat similar to Wang Mang, but he is more terrifying than Wang Mang, he has absolute control over the Northland, and he has the Department of Justice as his minions, he can implement every decree of his own, but what Wang Mang can't do, he ...... Ahem~"

"Bong-hyo." Cao Cao hurriedly stepped forward and helped Guo Jia pat the backup to ease him, and after a long time, Guo Jia stopped coughing.

"Jia is no problem!" Guo Jia shook his head and stopped Cao Cao from saying: "He wants to break the world of scholars and re-establish his own system, this courage...... Regardless of success or failure, he deserves the word hero! Moreover, to a certain extent, he has succeeded, looking at Yongliang and Merging Prefecture, the people's hearts are like iron, Lu Bu is not dead, I am afraid that the lord has ten times the army, and it will be difficult to attack. ”

Cao Cao heard the words silently, when Wang Mang was in chaos, he had established a short-lived new dynasty, although it was quickly extinguished, but it was since the establishment of the Han Dynasty, the first time to shake the foundation of the scholars, Wang Mang's new policy, think about it carefully, and Lu Bu's means in the Western Regions are more similar, but unfortunately, Wang Mang did not have Lu Bu's wrist and strength, and finally in the family's counterattack, the short-lived new dynasty was like a flash in the pan, and it was extinguished in an instant.

As a generation of heroes, how can Cao Cao not see the harm of the family, he has also been trying to suppress the family, among the princes, he is the one who uses the most talents from the cold family.

The people's hearts are like iron!

Thinking of Guo Jia's evaluation, Cao Cao was a little astringent, even if he was as heroic as Cao Cao, he was now under the influence of the family, and as Cao Cao grew stronger, the pressure from the family became more and more, looking at Guo Jia, Cao Cao opened his mouth, but was interrupted by Guo Jia.

"This is the way to survive in death, it is not suitable for the lord, if the lord wants to follow Lu Bu, he will die without a place to be buried!" Guo Jia said solemnly.

Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia, and finally sighed helplessly, how could he not know this truth?

The starting point is different, and sometimes the way to solve the problem is also different, Lu Bu will have today, it can be said that he was forced out, when Lu Bu was in Xuzhou, he also thought about winning over the family, such as Cao Bao and the Chen family.

It's a pity that in the end, it was almost annihilated, flowing through the Central Plains, but there was no place to stand, if it weren't for the original Chang'an Guanzhong group of generals to fight, chaotic, Lu Bu may not even be able to find a foothold, it is in that situation that Lu Bu is no longer willing to believe in scholars, and instead devotes himself to studying the new road, so that there is today's Lu Bu.

The country can be sure that Lu Bu's plan will never be so simple, these are only the first steps, the family class cannot really disappear, otherwise, those people under Lu Bu will not be able to agree, this is a problem that he cannot avoid, so in Lu Bu's plan, there must be a solution to how to eliminate this problem, but what is the method, even Guo Jia, can not guess.

As for Cao Cao, he is a family himself, if he chooses to use Lu Bu's set, then Cao Cao must first cut off all the things he has now obtained, not to mention that he still holds the chess piece of the Han Emperor in his hand, you know, Cao Cao's current important ministers and fierce generals are almost all families, Cao Cao wants to follow Lu Bu's set, these people have to abandon it, is it possible?
