Chapter 126: The Three Sons' Good Strategy
said that Cao Cao opened the letter of Daoxi sent by Gao Fei, and what he said earlier was also decent, and the last sentence surprised Cao Cao, what is called "three sons of good strategy", Cao Cao held the letter in the palm of his hand, thinking left and right, and did not think of what it meant, "Could it be that this Gao Fei is making a mistake?" ”。
Cao Cao led his troops to Gunzhou, where the garrison was to be determined, so he took over the affairs of Gunzhou and recruited talents to enrich his strength.
One day, two people suddenly threw themselves into Cao Cao's house, an old man and a young man, it was the uncle and nephew, Yingchuan people, the elder surnamed Xun Mingyu, the word Wenruo, originally under Yuan Shao's hands to do a micro official position, not reused, so they came to Gunzhou to join Cao Cao, Cao Cao was overjoyed to see his **, and said, "This is my Zhang Liang Zhang Zifang!" ”。
The young Xun You, the word Gongda, is also a famous man in the sea, once served as an official in the imperial court, and later when Dong Zhuo made a rebellion, this Xun You was unwilling to serve Dong Zhuo, so he abandoned the official and returned, hidden in the mountains, heard that his uncle came to Cao Cao, this Xun You also followed.
Cao Cao was overjoyed when he saw the two people in front of him who came to defect, all of them were celebrities, and then the arrangements were to be determined, canonized as an official, and stayed by his side, but this Xun Yu said, "The lord came to Gunzhou, when he knew that there was still a scholar here, wouldn't he bring it for his own use and assist in major affairs!" ”。
Cao Cao asked who it was, and Xun Yu said, "This person is a native of Dong'a in Dongjun, surnamed Cheng Mingyu, and the word Zhongde!" ”。
Cao Cao came to his senses, "This person has been famous for a long time!" Then he sent soldiers to search for the border of Gunzhou, and found that Cheng Yu was studying in the deep mountains of Gunzhou, and Cao Cao went to visit in person.
Cheng Yu built a thatched house in the mountains, with an oil lamp, it was noon, but the fog in the mountains was difficult to walk, this Cao Cao personally climbed the mountain hut, visited Cheng Yu, Cheng Yu saw someone knocking on the door outside the house, so he said in the house, "There is no one in this house, don't knock on it!" ”。
Cao Cao replied respectfully outside, "If there is no one in the house, what is the echo?" ”。
Cheng Yu in the room smiled, "It seems that Mr. is here to find Cheng Yu!" ”。
Cao Cao did not enter the house, and the so-called knocking on the door was nothing more than a simple wooden rattan board wrapped around the outside of the hut, Cao Cao stood outside, and through the crack in the door, he could see that there was a person in the room with his back to him, reading.
This Cheng Yu put aside the book in his hand, and got up to see Cao Cao.
This Cheng Yu is about thirty years old, Confucian breath, but worthy of the title of celebrity, Cao Cao was invited into the hut by Cheng Yu, there was neither tea nor chairs, Cheng Yu did not mention this matter, and asked directly, "Is Your Excellency Cao Cao?" ”。
Cao Cao did not express his surprise, "What Mr. said is very true, a certain is really Cao Cao, a new place to come to Gunzhou, famous in the name of Mr., I hereby invite Mr. to assist me Cao Cao!" ”。
Cheng Yu smiled, "Cao Gong laughed, a certain person is also a lonely and unheard person, only a shallow learner, Cao Gong invited me, I really can't afford it, I recommend a person for Cao Gong, who has the talent to help Cao Gong achieve great things!" ”。
Cao Cao was puzzled when he heard this, "Is there anyone more talented than Mr.?" ”。
Cheng Yu said with a smile, "A certain talent is less than three or four out of ten, this person is my fellow countryman, a person from Yingchuan, surnamed Guo Mingjia, the word Fengxiao, is a wise man today, why not recruit him!" ”。
Although Cheng Yu recommended another person to Cao Cao, this Cao Cao was unwilling to give up Cheng Yu and invited him in every possible way, and Cheng Yu also saw that this Cao Cao was sincere, so he no longer postponed it and went to serve Cao Cao.
But said that Cao Cao heard that Cheng Yu recommended Guo Jia is a genius in the world, so he sent people around to look for it, a few days later, someone came to report, it turned out that Guo Jia had already gone to Jizhou Gao Fei, at that time this Cao Cao sighed, regret to start late, and let the talent run to Jizhou, and then thought about it deeply, Cao Cao thought of the letter that Gao Fei wrote to him a few days ago, and the last sentence "Three sons of good strategy" means!
When Cao Cao first arrived in Gunzhou, he accepted Xun Yu, Xun You, and Cheng Yu, all of whom were Wenchen think tanks, of course, they were "three sons of good strategy", but Cao Cao didn't understand, "How could this Gao Fei come to this point, and the three of them will belong to me?" ”。
Cao Cao's thoughts are not a big problem in Gao Fei's opinion, because he has long known what will happen in this period of history, so it doesn't matter if he spoils in advance, and the reason why Gao Fei wants to say this in his congratulatory letter to Cao Cao is actually a joke, if it is according to the normal development of history, this Cao Cao's subordinates should be "five sons of good strategy", that is to say, this Cao Cao has five resourceful ministers under his hands, in addition to Xun Yu, Xun You's uncle and nephew and Cheng Yu in front, the remaining two people are known as "ghost talents" Guo Jia, and Jia Xu, who is known as the "poisoner", these two people are extraordinary, they are both worldly top thinkers, and now they are all recruited by Gao Fei to his subordinates, it is the time when the spring breeze is proud, and at this time Cao Cao is newly in Gunzhou, Gao Fei regards Cao Cao as an opponent, of course, he has to mock a little, but this mockery was not seen by Cao Cao, but it aggravated his suspicions!
At this time, in Jizhou City, Jia Xu was seriously ill, Gao Fei went to visit several times, Jia Xu did not talk about his illness, but just told Gao Feidao, "Wenhe can no longer give advice to the lord, but there is one thing that cannot be relieved, please keep it in mind."
Gao Fei stood on Jia Xu's bed and listened, "If Mr. has something to say, he will do it!" Gao Fei thought that this Jia Xu must have something to worry about, so he had to tell himself, but he didn't expect that the last sentence of this Jia Xu in the world was also for Gao Fei's advice, "Li Yu and Guo Yan are entrenched in Chang'an, although they defeated Ma Teng and Han Sui and others, but they must not be able to live in peace for a long time, and there will be a big event in Chang'an at that time, and it is advisable to take the captain to drive straight in, snatch back the emperor from the hands of the two thieves, and welcome the emperor in Jizhou, when the time comes, the lord will coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, the north can be determined, and the major event will be half ......."
Jia Xu's breath was weak, and he couldn't say anything in the last few words, coughing up blood in his mouth, and there was another sentence at the end, vaguely saying, "I can't see the lord ruling the world, I regret it!" Then a mouthful of blood burst out of his mouth, his eyes were dark, his arms were straight, and he was not breathing.
Jia Xu's parting words made Gao Fei sigh, and in the face of Jia Xu's gradually cold corpse, he said for a long time, "I, Gao Fei, will definitely live up to Mr. Jia's intentions, and then my eyes are closed, and I ordered my subordinates to bury Mr. Jia Xu alive."
In fact, three days ago, Jia Xu's son was already in poor health and went first, and Gao Fei was afraid that this bad news would aggravate Jia Xu's condition, so he didn't say anything to him, but he didn't expect that three days later, this Jia Xu couldn't hold on, his soul returned to the underworld, scattered in the earth, life and death, but he couldn't ask for it, Gao Fei ordered someone to bury Jia Xu and his beloved son not far away, named "Father and Son Tomb", and he brought a pot of sake and drank it on Jia Xu's grave.
"A glass of wine, the love of the monarch and the courtiers, another glass, the man's mind, the last glass, life and death are not worth it!" , Gao Fei took a sip of wine, sprinkled it in front of the grave, and lamented, "Hey, you Jia Xu, you gave up my four taels of meat for nothing, and you didn't have enough of it, so you went by yourself, what a loss-making deal!" ”。
Gao Fei underestimated this Jia Xu, before he died, he did not forget to plan for Gao Fei, and told the world to do the great cause, it seems that this Jia Xu does not care about his own death, there is a sentence called, "borrow from the sky for another five hundred years", presumably it is Jia Xu's mood, the world has not yet been unified, he went, the loneliness can be seen, the meaning of grief and indignation is not long, but it makes Gao Fei moved, originally this Jia Xu came to Jizhou to persuade Gao Fei to raise troops against Dong Zhuo, but he did not expect to be left in Jizhou by Gao Fei, and then has been for Gao Fei's own use, and at the beginning, Jia Xu said that within ten years, the world will definitely be one, but after a year, Jia Xu will return to the world first, and the fist in Gao Fei's hand is clenched, "There are only nine years left, and ...... nine years."
Dusk fell, next to a new grave, a wine jug fell in front of the grave, the wine soaked the new soil, and in the shadow torn off by the dusk yellow light, there was a man drifting away!
