Chapter 281: Tearing up the peace treaty

As soon as Cao Cao's front foot left, Xun Gang's back foot removed the bandage on his body; Even though the wound has not completely healed, how can you not show a healthy appearance in order to fully grasp the military power?

And after Xun Gang took the throne, the first thing he cared about was naturally the whereabouts of Ma Teng's soldiers and horses. Ma Teng www.biquge.info was worried about a sneak attack in the rear, so he withdrew all of them from Yizhou. Now that he has made a peace agreement with Cao Cao, he doesn't know how soon he will return to Yizhou.

"Ma Teng's soldiers and horses have attacked Yizhou again?"

Guo Jia said: "No, it may be that I know that Yizhou is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and I am all cavalry, so I am ready to remobilize the troops and horses, and the whole army will fight again!" ”

After many years of cooperating again, Guo Jia seemed quite excited, eager to pour out all his light and heat. Because from beginning to end, he has always served Xun Gang, even under Cao Cao.

Similar to Wei Yan and Xu Chu, their interest seems to be quite high, but Lu Bu is noncommittal; And Cao Cao's cronies don't seem to look good.

Not to mention whether these people are convinced of a teenager, Xun Gang's actions since he took the throne alone have made them very worried. This guy has been asking about the traces of Ma Teng Han Suijun, why does he have a feeling of wanting to attack at any time?

Chang'an Taishou Zhong Xuan was the first to break the deadlock and asked: "Governor, I don't know what you want to do with Ma Tengjun in the past few days?" ”

In fact, Xun Gang's intentions were almost obvious, completely preparing for the attack on Ma Teng. But the crowd did not get the exact information, and they did not dare to speculate.

I thought that Xun Gang would pretend to shirk it, but I didn't expect Xun Gang to have no hesitation, and said solemnly: "This behavior is naturally for my Han to eliminate bandits!" Liu Zhang is a relative of the Han family, and Ma Teng led the army to attack, and heaven does not tolerate it! Although Duke Wei is gone, as long as a certain town guards here, he will definitely not let go of this traitor! ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and Cao Cao's confidant Li Daodao: "Dudu must not be reckless, since our army has signed an agreement with Ma Teng, we must not break the rules and lose our trust in the world!" ”

Cao Hong also agreed: "What Wenda said is true, even if our army defeats Ma Teng, what can we do? People in the world only say that our army is not trustworthy, how will it be based on the community in the future? I hope the governor will think twice! ”

Cao Cao's cronies are obviously against tearing his face, but the people on Xun Gang's side are not; is like Wei Yan: "What the generals said is one-sided, haven't you forgotten that Han Sui was on the side of Kou back then, and because of the imperial court's recruitment, he was attached to Ma Teng?" Now that Han Sui is attacking Liu Zhang with the army, our division is famous, why are we afraid of losing trust? ”

Zhong Xuan said: "Since the Han Court has already recruited An Han Sui, what reason do we have to crusade?" The crusade is small, the dishonesty is big, this matter must not be! ”

Guo Jia smiled slightly, walked out of the queue and said: "Everyone has not forgotten that diplomacy is also a military means!" If we are just cheating, and Ma Teng is just a trick, how can I say that I am not trustworthy? What's more, it is the intention of the Duke of Wei to seek peace, the Duke of Wei has left, and now the governor is Xun Hussar, Xun Hussar is unwilling to seek peace, what is the problem of tearing up the peace treaty? ”

This is a fallacy, a sophistry! Guo Fengxiao, if he really tears up the peace treaty, won't he ruin the reputation of Duke Wei? ”

"The Duke of Wei is fighting for the country, and the people want it, so how can he ruin his reputation?"

"You ......"

Zhong Xuan was speechless for a while, after all, politics, diplomacy, and calligraphy are his strengths, but in terms of debate, how can he be Guo Jia's opponent?

Xun Gang became a peacemaker at this time: "Don't worry, this matter has not been decided for the time being, we will discuss it slowly......"

But Cao Cao's cronies didn't seem to buy it, and stepped back one by one on the grounds of physical discomfort, as if they wanted to make Xun Gang compromise. After all, Cao Cao was afraid that Xun Gang would be dominant, and the military power would be divided equally among everyone, and if Xun Gang insisted on going his own way, he could only mobilize thousands of soldiers and horses under their own command.

They don't think that Xun Gang has the ability to rely on thousands of soldiers and horses to defeat Liangzhou.

But in the face of their departure, Xun Gang just smiled, and before long, in addition to Xun Gang's own people in the hall, only Zhong Xuan and Zhang Ji were left as civil officials.

"Zihuan, where are you going?"

Xun Gang saw that Cao Pi also had the intention of leaving, so he immediately drank it, so frightened that Cao Pi couldn't move his legs. It turned out that Cao Cao left Cao Pi in Chang'an, and wanted Cao Pi to exercise more with Xun Gang, which led to today's scene.

It's ridiculous to say that Cao Pi is only afraid of Xun Gang in addition to being afraid of Mrs. Bian and Cao Cao. Now that his opinions are different from Xun Gang's, he planned to slip away, but he didn't expect to be caught by Xun Gang and seriously criticized.

"This ...... The governor, in fact, also thinks that it is not good to tear up the peace treaty at will, if the princes of all parties know, who is willing to make friends with us? ”

"As long as you're strong enough, those people will naturally compete with you! And if those people come together against you, then you should be proud rather than afraid! ”

"Obey the Teachings ......"

Cao Pi was obviously not very interested, and Xun Gang knew that he had not been able to completely convince him, so he added fuel and vinegar and said: "If you can defeat Ma Teng, you will definitely have extraordinary achievements; What's more, Liangzhou is pacified, and it is easy to take the south, is it possible that you are still afraid of Wei Gong's punishment of you? ”

"This ......"

"If you just follow the rules and don't even have this bit of courage, it's better to give up your position to others, so as not to have a vegetarian meal!"

The last sentence completely hit Cao Pi's heart, you must know that Lian Lian has the right to love him, how can he give up his position? What's more, Xun Gang's implication was that he was completely ineligible to inherit Cao Cao's title if he had no courage.

Cao Pi's heart was crossed, and he immediately gritted his teeth and agreed to Xun Gang's military policy, and returned to his seat.

Zhong Xuan and the others were secretly shocked, but they didn't expect Xun Gang to change his mind with just a few words, which made Cao Cao's eldest son change his mind...... Is this a complete grasp of Cao Pi's mind, and is there another reason?

It seems that the relationship between Cao Pi and Xun Gang is not shallow, if Cao Cao will be buried in the future, Cao Pi will succeed to the throne, and Xun Gang will inevitably be powerful......

They are all smart people who naturally know how to make trade-offs.

Zhong Xuan first changed his words and said: "Governor, after thinking about it, in fact, this plan is not impossible, but it is necessary to have legitimate remarks to ......minimize the loss of our army's reputation."

"How can you achieve great things? Fear of taking care of one and losing the other, it is definitely not what Wei Gong did! ”

"This ......"

Xun Gang didn't want to reduce the loss of Cao Cao's reputation, after all, it was the goal to give him a dark spot; When the time comes, he will send someone to spread rumors, saying that this is Cao Cao's secret order, and he will shirk his responsibility cleanly.

But at this time, the scout came to report: "Ma Teng Han then raised 5,000 troops again and entered Yangping, leaving dozens of generals to stay in Hexi!" ”

Five thousand is an excellent number for attacking Yizhou, but Xun Gang didn't have time to sigh; Do you know that Ma Teng left tens of thousands of people to guard in Hexi, obviously afraid of his own sneak attack, how can this be good?

Xun Gang couldn't think of a way after thinking about it for a long time, so he could only ask for help from Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, what plan do you have?" ”

Guo Jia seemed to have already investigated, and replied: "Dudu, in order to appease Han Sui, Ma Teng married him as a brother of the opposite sex; Although the two are close and harmonious on the surface, they have their own games in private. There are eight generals under Han Sui's command, who are brave and brave, but they are all dissatisfied with Ma Chao; And Ma Chao also has a lot of problems for the eight of them, just make a small discordant plan, and the big plan can be achieved! ”

"Discord meter?" Lu Bu, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke, "It's not that I look down on Your Excellency, although the soldiers and horses of Xiliang are brave and resourceful, but the military heart is like iron, and it is not a small plan that may be divided, Your Excellency can't help but be trusted, right?" ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "This matter still needs the help of General Lu, General Wei, and General Xu......

After that, Guo Jia added: "Zhang County's order is here? ”

Zhang Ji hurriedly responded, Guo Jia smiled and said: "The governor has long known your Excellency's great talent, and now it is where you can use it!" Without the support of your generals, we have very few troops and horses to mobilize, so you have to contact Liangzhou Haoqiang to think that it should be dealt with. ”

"It's not difficult to do, let's prepare for it now."

As Xun Gang thought in his heart, Guo Jia was also ready to swallow Liangzhou in one go. As long as Ma Teng is left with a piece of land, with his reputation, I am afraid that he will be able to take the opportunity to recapture Liangzhou in a few months. Therefore, this matter must be as soon as possible, and take the opportunity to trap Ma Teng in Yizhou and let him be in a dilemma.

Guo Jia and the three generals ordered again: "Tomorrow, Lu Bu will go to Ma Chao to provoke in front of the formation, act lightly, fight with him for a hundred rounds, and pretend to be exhausted and retreat; With the ability of a general, I'm afraid it will be enough to deal with it! ”

"General Wen Chang and General Zhong Kang will go to Han Sui tomorrow to provoke, although the people under his command are brave, they are definitely not the opponents of the two generals. The two generals only need to defeat the people who will fight. ”

"It's as simple as that?" When Xun Gang heard these arrangements, he couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

"Naturally, there is a backhand, but it's just inconvenient to say it now!"

The three of them received the military order to go down, and the military discussion was already over, but Cao Pi suddenly grabbed Guo Jia and asked, "Mr. Guo, what merit is there to be in the future?" ”

Cao Pi stayed here, mainly because he saw that he had merit to be desirable, and now that everyone has arranged it but not arranged himself, it will inevitably make him a little angry.

How do you know that Guo Jia laughed: "Don't be in a hurry, I will leave the greatest credit to Your Excellency, and you will naturally understand when the time comes!" ”
