Cai Yan is rarely greedy for something, and when he saw through his thoughts, he was slightly embarrassed, and said softly: "It's okay, but I just feel that this chess is just like what the adults said, the battlefield is full of dangers, ever-changing, and intrigues, all of which are placed in a small square board, which is really interesting." Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info I just don't know who invented this kind of gameplay? Is it an adult? ”

Liu Feng snorted, he was a little puzzled, in his impression, the nose master of this chess seemed to be Han Xin, but no matter how he searched everywhere, he didn't hear any such thing as chess. And the chess in his hand may be the first chess in the world.

Looking at the Chu River Han Realm on the chessboard, Liu Feng was a little embarrassed and a little in a trance, isn't Chu the self he is now? So who does Han refer to? Is it Cao Cao who ordered the princes of the Son of Heaven? Or the so-called Liu Bei Liu Xuande after King Jing of Zhongshan? Or is it ......

Cai Yan watched Liu Feng staring at the chessboard in a daze, and didn't bother him, just sat there quietly. With a straight waist and hands attached to the lower part of his chest, he has a quiet and virtuous appearance, which is afraid that no man can resist.

Xuchang City, inside the Jinyang Palace.

Cao Cao, dressed in a purple and red robe, sat in the hall, looking at the civil and military officials gathered in the hall with His Royal Highness, and the pride in his heart could not be stopped.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if there has been chaos for a long time, I, Cao Mengde, have the grace of His Majesty, and I have a million armor, and now I want to sweep away the Sihe, and I am also a big man, I don't know what you want?"

The hundreds of officials under the hall looked at each other, and it was only more than a year after the battle of Guandu, although Cao Cao won a big victory, but the essence of the change was nothing more than dozens of times more soldiers and horses. There is still so much grain and grass in the territory, and it can even be said that the burden on the shoulders of the people under the rule is still a lot heavier.

"Prime Minister," a thin scribe walked out and arched his hand, "For example, there are countless warlords of all sizes today, I don't know if the prime minister wants to go east or west?"

A smile flashed in Cao Cao's eyes, and he said, "Oh, Feng Xiao is better for you to say, should you go west or east?"

Guo Jia didn't seem to be embarrassed by Cao Cao's intentions, he raised his head, looked at Cao Cao's smug black face, and said in a deep voice: "Feng Xiao thinks that he should go east."

"Lord Guo, the East belongs to the land of the four wars, Yuan Shu, Tao Qian, and Liu Feng are not easy people, and now we and Liu Feng are surrounded by the two major forces of Yuan Shu and Tao Qian in the middle, at this time, I am afraid that it will be inappropriate, right?"

"Master Cheng, do you think that Yuan Shu and Tao Qian will form an alliance to resist us?" Guo Jia's weak body turned his head, his eyes were shining, and he looked at Cheng Yu with a smile.

"Could it be something wrong?" Cheng Yu snorted, this Guo Jia relied on the favor of the prime minister, was dissolute, did not take anyone in his eyes, and was arrogant and arrogant, which made him dissatisfied.

"Haha," Guo Jia laughed wildly, his voice resounded throughout the hall, and the ministers in the Jinyang Hall were suddenly silenced, and they didn't dare to come out of the atmosphere, but Guo Jia was calm and calm, and didn't care, and said loudly: "Hmph, don't say Yuan Shu, will Tao Qian and other incompetent people form an alliance, even if they form an alliance, the prime minister's millions of male soldiers are coming to the city, do you think they can stop it?"

"Besides, let's attack one side first, and the other side only needs to send a few thousand men and horses to roam, Lord Cheng, do you think Tao Qian will go to rescue Yuan Shu, or will Yuan Shu go to rescue Tao Qian?"

Cheng Yu's face turned red, whether Tao Qian or Yuan Shu alone was alone, there was absolutely no possibility of resisting Cao Cao, even if the two joined forces, failure was only a matter of time, although Guo Jia said a few words, he analyzed the possibility of Tao Qian and Yuan Shu forming an alliance thoroughly.

He was unconvinced, glanced at Cao Cao, who was sitting in the hall with his eyes closed, and turned his head to look at Guo Jiadao: "Tao Qian and Yuan Shu are unable to resist the prime minister's male soldiers, but Lord Guo should not forget that the praying mantis catches cicadas, the yellow finch is behind, and there is a powerful Liu Feng entrenched in the north of Xuzhou."

Guo Jia glanced at him lightly, but ignored him anymore, turned back to Cao Cao in the hall and said: "Prime Minister, without further ado, although we need to rest, but Liu Feng needs to rest even more, he has newly acquired the land of Sanzhou, and he needs more time to digest than us." Feng Xiao thought that the prime minister should quickly send a large army to capture Xuzhou, as long as he completely controlled Xuzhou and cut off the path of Liu Feng's subsequent expansion to the south. The prime minister can be worry-free. ”

Cao Cao bowed slightly, did not show his expression, looked at Cheng Yu's somewhat depressed face, and couldn't help laughing: "Zhongde, Feng Xiao advocates the Eastern Expedition, and everyone understands what he means, I don't know what you think about the Western Expedition, so what do you think?"

Cheng Yu saw that Cao Cao did not completely deny his opinion, and he was overjoyed, and said loudly: "Prime Minister, Zhongde thinks that the war situation in the east is chaotic, rather than us taking the initiative to attack, it is better to watch the fire from the other side, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and enjoy the benefits of the fisherman." And Xiliang Ma Teng, the soldiers and horses are brave, and the power should not be underestimated. We should find a way to solve him first and relieve his worries. ”

Cao Cao was silent, what Cheng Yu said was not unreasonable, at another point in time, he would definitely send troops to destroy Ma Teng first, but now Guo Jia obviously thinks more far-reaching, as long as he takes Xuzhou quickly, Yuan Shu will be the turtle in the urn, and Liu Feng's threat and development will be seriously restricted.

Of course, as Cheng Yu said, if Ma Teng was doing things in the back when he was on his eastward expedition, it would also be a headache for him.

The thoughts in his mind were fast, and he already had an idea in his heart, he stood up, waved his hand to stop the discussion of the hundreds of officials below, and said to Cheng Yu with a smile: "Cheng Yu, this prime minister has appointed you as the Taishou of Chang'an, you must closely monitor Xiliang, and don't let Ma Teng interfere with my Eastern Crusade plan."

Seeing that Cao Cao had made up his mind, Cheng Yu had to nod and obey.

"Yu forbids you to go to Chang'an with Zhongde, and you must not let Ma Teng lead the army eastward."

"The last general commands." Yu Ban was out of the queue and replied in a deep voice.

"Well," Cao Cao's bronze bell-like eyes swept the audience, and saw that many of His Royal Highness's generals were looking at him eagerly, and he couldn't help but smile, and he said by name: "Cao Hong, Le Jin, Xiahoudun, Li Dian, Cao Zhang, Xu Chu, you will go to prepare as soon as possible, and lead your troops to follow me to Xuzhou in three days."

"Yes, Prime Minister!" Several generals who were named had smiles on their faces and hurriedly responded.

"Well, that's it for today, you and the others will step down, and Fengxiao will stay." Cao Cao finally commanded.

Although I don't know why Cao Cao left Guo Jiasuo, no one will dare to ask.

After everyone withdrew from the hall, Guo Jia bent over and coughed violently, Cao Cao was frightened, and hurriedly trotted down from the hall, came to him, held Guo Jia's arm, looked at the silk scarf he held tightly in his hand, and his eyebrows were full of worry: "Fengxiao, how are you?"
