On the same night, the inner courtyard of Luoyang Lu Mansion was full of spring, while in Chen Liuwei's Mansion, tonight was brightly lit and very lively.

This is owned by the local filial piety and the wealthy Weizi, of course, now it is essentially owned by Cao Cao, Weizi has invested all his net worth, thinking that Cao Cao is the foundation of the start, which is actually an investment, and it is likely to be rewarded in the future.

Tonight's Wei Mansion is more lively than usual, and the atmosphere is also very warm, and Wei Zi, as the host, is only accompanying the second seat at this time, and it is Cao Cao Cao and Cao Mengde who are sitting on the main seat.

Although the alliance of the princes of the Eighteenth Route against Dong ultimately failed, and even Cao Cao was still in it, the whole army was finally wiped out, and the old books brought out of his hometown were broken, and Cao Ren of the same clan was nowhere to be found, but this did not damage Cao Cao's reputation, but increased his reputation, especially when the news broke out in the civil strife among the princes, Cao Cao angrily reprimanded the alliance leader Yuan Shao and then ran away angrily, which helped his reputation reach a new height, and attracted more and more good ministers and generals to come to defect for a while, regardless of their starting point, is it to get ahead or aspire to the world, it is undoubtedly attracted by Cao Cao's fame.

Of course, there are a lot of talents, but there are not many tops, and if you want to rely on such a reputation to attract the top talents, it is too much to underestimate these talents, and Cao Cao's subordinates at this time rely on the most, one is the handsome drama drama drama Zhicai who encountered in the land of Yingchuan at the beginning, and was directly regarded as a military advisor, and the other is also valued by Cao Cao.

This person's surname is Guo Mingjia, the word Fengxiao, originally a native of Yingchuan Yangzhai, he is twenty years old this year, and he can be crowned, but don't underestimate his age, but his ability is not small, not to mention anything else, just say that he has been worshiped by Cao Cao as a military adviser before the drama Xi Zhicai in order to help Cao Cao recruit him to go deep into the Luoyang Tiger's Den, it can be seen - that's right, he was "making waves" in Luoyang before, which attracted Li Ru to personally set up a formation to arrest him, and finally the scribe who was rescued by Xi Zhicai was this Guo Jia.

And after coming, in terms of expanding talents, he also spared no effort, as soon as he came to Cao Cao recommended the descendants of Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu, a Huainan Chengde person, this person's surname is Liu Mingye, the word Ziyang, his talent is not only good, but also good at tools, the so-called "strange skills" quite a study, the history is that he created a "thunderbolt car" in the battle of Guandu to deal with Yuan Shaojun's large-scale siege equipment Gao Xuan, greatly affected the battle situation, it can be said that Cao Cao's arm is very helpful, Cao Cao naturally knows the stakes, immediately sent someone to invite, Liu Ye also knew Cao Cao's reputation, and happily came to run.

As soon as Liu Ye arrived, he recommended two more people for Cao Cao, one is a native of Changyi, Shanyang, whose surname is full of names and pets, and the word Boning, often has the name of integrity, and the township praises his virtues; One is a native of Wucheng, surnamed Lu Mingqian, and the word is Ke.

Guo Jia said at the time: "Jia also heard that these two people are extraordinary, and they are both talents who can help the lord achieve great things. ”

With Guo Jiahui's eyes in front and Liu Ye's advice behind, Cao Cao naturally believed that he would also find those two people to be engaged in the army, and these two people raised a total of one person, who was Chen Liuping Qiu, surnamed Mao Ming, Xiaoxian, Cao Cao was as good as a stream, and he was also recruited to be engaged.

As the first great gift, Guo Jia's first strategy for Cao Cao was to go far to Luoyang, leave Chenliu, leave Yuzhou, and then spread to one place, so that he could win the world.

For example, there is an undercurrent in the calm of the situation today, Cao Cao is undoubtedly most concerned about the situation in the north, and everyone knows that the confrontation on the Jizhou side will eventually come to an end, Guo Jia also pointed out that whether it is Gongsun Zan of Youzhou or Han Fu of Jizhou, they have no ability or strength to compete with Yuan Shao, and the final winner here is Yuan Shao. …,

Yuan Shao seems to be scattered, but his strength is outstanding, elite soldiers, strong generals, strategists gathered, Yuan Shao's own ability is also good, if they really want to get up, Gongsun and Han will join forces to mediate one or two at most, the biggest variable is Dong Zhuo, but the world only knows that Dong Zhuo took the initiative in the battle of the Tiger Prison and won a big victory, but he didn't think that this big victory also had a price, he actually couldn't cause any trouble to Yuan Shao, he could only hinder it for a while.

Did you really think that Guo Jia was just going to make the wind and rain in Luoyang before? Although Luoyang is dangerous, it is the easiest place to get the closest to the authenticity of Dong Zhuo's relevant news, rumors between the market, and the occasional leakage of the soldiers of the Xiliang Army wandering in the city, these can become the source of Guo Jia's intelligence information, not to mention that he also hooked up with some big names, so he knows very well that the Tiger Prison defeated the spirit of the alliance army in the first battle, and even broke up the possibility of their union in the short term, which can be regarded as clearing the threat for Dong Zhuo, but it does not mean that Dong Zhuo is absolutely safe and worry-free. Because the strength of his Xiliang army is also a big loss, not to mention the sacrifice for authenticity in the abandoned tiger prison as a bait, and later the Xiliang general Xu Rongshou Yanshi delayed the time to wait for Li Ru's support to fight hard, and the Xiliang army has been gathered for many years to fight this battle, and the real strength is the most intact from beginning to end, but Li Dao, Guo Yan and others who have always been arranged to wander near Yingchuan have not participated from beginning to end.

And Guo Jia noticed one of the most important problems, that is, the relationship between Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu.

The so-called shopkeeper, the current Lu Bu is still equivalent to the "master", and Dong Zhuo's "shop" is too big and domineering, which makes the two have a natural contradiction, if there are no external factors, it is impossible to get along harmoniously and safely, the key is to see when the contradiction reaches the peak and tears the skin.

Guo Jia also knew from various sources that after Lu Bu killed Na Ding Jianyang, he took his subordinates and the state army to Dong Zhuo, and these subordinates of the state army did not suffer much damage in the battle of the tiger prison, could Dong Zhuo let Lu Bu be so safe? This is definitely a point that can be exploited, even if it is enough to let Dong Zhuo be alone on the way to this Cao Cao's rise.

Guo Jia also knows very well that as long as Lu Bu is a smart person, he will never turn his face with Dong Zhuo now, not for the sake of fame, if he really wants to kill Dong Zhuo and then operate, maybe he can also exchange for a reputation of loyalty, but that will just make Yuan Shao and others proud, and Lu Bu will also face the stain of two sides and three knives and the threat from the remnants of Xiliang anytime and anywhere, in the original history, after Lu Bu and Wang Yun conspired to kill Dong Zhuo, they were immediately led by Li Dao to attack Chang'an, After the defeat, he actually lost the best opportunity to dominate, and later made a wrong step against Cao Cao, which eventually caused his final death.

This qiē also made Guo Jia more confident in implementing his plan, because all forces must maintain a relatively stable situation, and at this time, they will restrain each other, and each other has scruples, which is the most conducive time for Cao Cao to fish in troubled waters.

Not to mention this qiē, the last and most critical "enter", the goal of going Guo Jia also thought about it: "The lord of Xuzhou's lost pottery is a good opportunity, as for whether the lord can find an opportunity to enter, Jia thinks it is not a problem." ”

"Oh?" This statement attracted the attention of Cao Cao and everyone, who was already thinking, and they all watched and listened to how he could say a truth.
