"Yuan Xi is going to be recommended by Cao Cao as the pastor of Jizhou! With Yuan Xi's means and strength, Yuan Shang, the assassin of Jizhou, is not his brother's opponent at all, and Jizhou is almost a foregone conclusion that Jizhou will fall into the hands of Cao Cao. In the mansion of the general of Linzi City, Lu Bu, who was already well injured, was eating the tea soup cooked by the Yan family, who was sitting on his knees, and was angry at Qin Xu, who was deaf to Lu Bu's anger.

"The lord also said that the matter has come to this point, so what can I do!" It was rare for Qin Xu to dare to make a joke in front of his father-in-law, who had a very unpredictable temper, and as soon as his tone changed, it became a different meaning. Seeing that Lu Bu was about to change his face again, he smiled, changed the topic and said: "Cao Cao has made this move, I'm afraid that he has already guessed that Yuan Shang broke the road and sneaked into Xuchang to meet the Son of Heaven privately, and there must be someone behind him, who saw through my plan to draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle, and refused to be played with like this, so he did not hesitate to push Yuan Xilai, who is not enough to sit in this position regardless of seniority and strength, as a stepping stone, but ......, Yuan Xi's stone is not easy to move!" ”

"Huh? What do you mean? Don't sell it! Lu Bu's attention was really attracted by Qin Xu's last sentence, and after hearing the words, he thought about it carefully, but it didn't take long for him to wave his hand quite irritably, and asked Qin Xu and said: "As far as I know, although Cao Cao has not wreaked havoc on the court like Dong Zhuo and Li Guo at the beginning, ignoring the court, but he has acted in the name of the Son of Heaven, but he is just recommending Yuan Xi as the pastor of Jizhou, with Cao Cao's power in the court, this doesn't seem to be a difficult thing, right?" ”

"What the lord said is too tactful!" Qin Xu said with a smile: "If Cao Cao really thinks about Yuan Xi to this position, it will be like what the lord said. Even if the Son of Heaven does not allow it, according to the current form of the DPRK and China, he Cao can make the holy decree of the Son of Heaven. This is not surprising. However, if Cao Cao really wants to do this, then he is no longer Cao Cao! ”

"Speak human words!" was circled by Qin Xu. Zi's words were dizzy, and Lu Bu said angrily.

"Speaking of which, the lord and Cao Cao have also dealt with each other for more than ten years, is this eldest brother the kind of stunned young man who just wants to fight for a breath and ignores it?" Qin Xu tugged at the corners of his mouth, ignoring Lu Bu's "threat". continued: "The reason why the Hebei incident became a mess was caused by the rivalry between the two brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi. If Cao Cao hated Yuan Tan in order to collect Yuan Xi, the final result. It is very likely that not only Jizhou will not be able to get it, but even the unstable merger of the state will be thrown away, and Cao Cao will be a hero for a while. How can you not see this? Of course. Unless he is between the two brothers of the old Yuan family, a bowl of water is leveled, and the appointment of the pastor of Dahan Prefecture is regarded as child's play, otherwise, this Hebei matter will not end so easily. ”

"Yuan Tan Xiao'er has voted for Cao Cao, and more than half of the state has been received by Cao Cao's army, even if you are dissatisfied, you will never have such a move as you said, right? Otherwise, wouldn't it be a fire? "Lu Bu himself is on the top of the top. So I like to think about problems and find another way. However, if Yuan Tan hears this, he may feel like a confidant.

"Ah! Lord, you can think of it. Can't Cao Cao see it? Qin Xu rolled his eyes rather vaguely, and before Lu Bu could react, he sped up his speech and said, "So! Eighty percent of the news from Hebei was deliberately done by Cao Cao. The purpose is to distract others from their eyes in order to achieve their ultimate goal. ”

"The ultimate goal? What purpose? Also, what can I think of, can he Cao Mengde not see it? Lu Bu vaguely understood what Qin Xu meant, but it was obvious that his son-in-law had something to say just now that made him not very happy.

"The Lord is angry! Xu's meaning is how Cao Cao can be so bold as the lord! It's just a scheming and cunning person! The reason why there is such a move must be that he knows that Yuan Shang did this, just like the dragon-slaying blade, which cut off the back road that he wanted to get involved in Jizhou, but there is no conclusive evidence to prove that we did it. came up with such a method, and eighty percent of the time he couldn't get it, he would rather let Yuan Xi get it cheaper, rather than let me wait for my wish; Moreover, maybe it's to give Yuan Tan a try! Seeing that Lu Bu reacted so quickly, Qin Xu smiled and explained the results of analyzing Hebei's intelligence with Jia Xu to Lu Bu.

"Cheap Yuan Xi? Try Yuan Tan? Why did he Cao Mengde do this? Lu Bu understood Qin Xu's words, and he also felt that Cao Cao's move was the most likely. Lu Bu's personal guard battalion and trapped camp also have the same intelligence source as the shadow under Jia Xu's command, coupled with the previous incident, which made the Hebei giant Zhen's family completely surrender, it is equivalent to giving Lu Bu's command an extra pair of eyes that are always staring at Hebei. In fact, these intelligence sources under Lu Bu's command have also recently sent back news, saying that after Cao Cao of Bingzhou wanted to recommend Yuan Xi as the pastor of Jizhou, his actions seemed a little strange, not only did he withdraw half of the main force of the army to the area of Huguan and Baima Port on the border with Jizhou, but at the same time, the Yanzhou soldiers also changed their guards. Originally, Lu Bu was still thinking about whether this was a precursor to Cao Cao's action to speed up and rein in the entire territory of Hebei, but in that case, there was no need to divide the already lone army into two parts that could not be taken care of each other, but now that Qin Xu's words were said, Lu Bu had a little understanding of Cao Cao's intentions. "Cao Mengde is worthy of Xu Zi's comments on Yuedan back then!"

At this time, even Lu Bu saw that Cao Cao was going to take advantage of the situation to plan for the retreat! The Hebei affair is already tangled in a mess now, and the forces of all parties are also quite evenly matched, and it is thanks to Lu Bu's early withdrawal that he did not be unable to extricate himself because he was deeply trapped in it. It is impossible for Cao Cao not to see that instead of wasting time in Hebei, it is better to accept it when it is good, firmly control the state in his hands, and sit and watch the changes in Hebei to wait for the time. And this incident in Jizhou is not so much to block Cao Cao, but rather to give him a step to retreat under the premise that Cao Cao is not happy in his heart. It's no wonder that Lu Bu has such an exclamation.

"Yes! Although this old man has the intention of withdrawing from the army according to our plan, he is still dealing with our plan, and he still wants to add another fire to the Hebei matter! At the same time, according to this matter, we can explore Yuan Tan's mind and whether he is sincerely used for it, it can be seen that he will inevitably be the number one enemy in the future! Qin Xu stood up. Pointing to the map hanging in the hall, he said: "Jizhou is in chaos, and the easternmost state is undoubtedly the least affected. Cao Cao's actions can give the power of Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei. Leave enough space for reverie and lure it to increase its efforts to attack Jizhou, and the chaos in Jizhou, it is estimated that in Cao Cao's view, the most worrying thing is our army. After all, because of Liu Bei's relationship and the previous uncle's injury. Our army will definitely not let Gongsun Chan be too proud, so he will pull the plains close to Jizhou into the flames of war. And Jizhou because of Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang brothers because of the conflict of power. There will inevitably be civil strife, and they will have to deal with the attack of Gongsun Chan who is going south, and they will inevitably ask for help from the people behind the two of them. If our army had sent troops at that time, then Cao Cao, who had already completed his military training, would be able to take the initiative. This may be what Wen He said about Cao Cao's anti-guest-based strategy! ”

"That is to say! This time, we will support Yuan Shang's plan. In fact, it's a failure, right? A trace of irritability flashed on Lu Bu's face, this kind of battlefield that is not a battlefield fight, but only a strategy and strategy, is really a headache for him, the world's number one fierce general who believes in force. Hearing Qin Xu say this, Lu Bu became more and more impatient.

"The lord is scolding Xu!" Lu Bu's thinking jumped too strongly, Qin Xu smiled bitterly, and continued: "Cao Cao saw this move. It's a yang mou! But the premise is that our army is really what he expected. I am very concerned about whether Jizhou will take action because Gongsun Chan also came in. ”

"It's true that you can't be a grandson who sits in control of Youzhou, and you can go to Jizhou!" Lu Bu said in a deep voice.

"Ah! I think that Cao Cao will inevitably think like this! And Cao Cao should have enough reason to believe in this plan that our army has never let go of Jizhou, and will never let go of Liu Bei's forces, who had to return to Qingzhou due to injuries when they 'forced back' the lord, really took the opportunity of Gongsun Zan to go south to enter Jizhou! Qin Xu didn't wait for Lu Bu to ask out loud, pointed to the map and continued: "Lord, look, if our army really goes out of the plain to fight for Jizhou with Gongsun Zan as Cao Cao expected. Then Qingzhou, Xuzhou, and Yangzhou will not have enough troops to stay in defense, especially when Jingxiang Liu Biao occupies Lujiang County, if most of the troops are transferred to the north, it is undoubtedly sending food to others. Thus once again falling into the situation in Hebei. In this way, although Cao Cao now has a large number of generals and superior strength, the situation that the rear is intimidated by the lord will be completely opened. The Central Plains, Yongliang, and even Jingxiang were let go by Cao Cao. Even if our army finally tried its best, and fought with Gongsun Zhan to defeat both sides, after winning Jizhou, the strength at that time increased greatly, and Cao Cao, who controlled the annexation of the state, could go north to attack Youzhou and conquer Jizhou in the east, then what we did was equivalent to doing a long-term job for his old Cao family in vain! ”

"Shhh...... Cao A's intentions are so poisonous! Jia Wenhe's scheming is also so poisonous! After listening to Qin Xu's rare tirade, Lu Bu couldn't help but take a long breath of cold air. Before, Lu Bu had always thought that Qin Xu would prevent him from going north to "take revenge", but he was planning for Yuan Shang with his heart, he wanted to copy the previous empty glove white wolf to get Xuzhou, after learning about Cao Cao's response methods, thinking that this strategy failed, although he did not say it explicitly, he was also a little disappointed in Jia Xu, who gave Qin Xu advice. But now that Qin Xu has broken it, Lu Bu has a new understanding of the poisoner who forced him to run to the wolves, and he is also a little fortunate that Qin Xu did everything possible to tie Jia Xu to his side.

If according to what Qin Xu said about Jia Xu's plan, I am afraid that Cao Cao, who still thought that he had the upper hand in this confrontation, would be unlucky. It is no wonder that Qin Xu, together with Jia Xu and even Guo Jia, has been urging Lu Bu to focus on the strategic layout of his army on a large area of sparsely populated land in the south, and the enthusiasm for Hebei is lacking. Co-authored this is a big game of chess that Jia Xu and others may have planned at the beginning of the chaos in Hebei.

"Boy! What a means! In your eyes, isn't it possible that a certain is just a chess piece! Lu Bu, who suddenly came to his senses, suddenly said to Qin Xu sharply...... (To be continued......)
