Chapter 9: Cao Cao's Decision
Guo Jia said: "Guangnian City has been lost, but Han Fu has not defended to the end, he has withdrawn his troops; But Yuan Shao is also uncomfortable, it seems that there is a Han Fu's military horse bypassing Guangnian and taking Yecheng directly, although it was seen through by Jiang Qi who stayed behind, but it still almost broke through Yecheng, and then it was even more infiltrated into the periphery, as long as there are people who come out of Yecheng or will enter Yecheng outside, they are blocked by them, Jiang Qi is already anxious, and has to ask Yuan Shao for help, Yuan Shao finally ordered Yuan Yao to return to the army to relieve the siege, and the rest of the men and horses continue to pursue the Korean army. ”
"That turned out ......"
"As a result, Lu Bu led the army to appear suddenly, and he was ambushed on the road, and when the Yuan army appeared, the ambush was exhausted, and the Yuan army was taken by surprise, suffered heavy losses, and returned in defeat."
Cao Cao's face was solemn, although he expected that Yuan Shao might be affected as soon as Lu Bu moved, but the other party's movements were too fast, so that he couldn't react a little, especially after maintaining a habitual balance like this for so many days, whether it was Cao Cao or Guo Jia, they didn't even think about whether Lu Bu would suddenly move.
After all, as soon as the army moves, Cao Cao's side is likely to know, isn't he afraid? Of course not, if he wasn't jealous, he wouldn't have sneaked away like this, and he wouldn't have made so many disguises to confuse Cao Jun, but because of this, people felt even more helpless.
There is a limit to people's spirit and attention, Lu Bu is obviously making an article about this, and suddenly moved when everyone didn't think he would move, and Wang Cheng also understood at that time why Lu Bu suddenly changed his mind and started immediately.
Guo Jia's report is not over: "Yuan Shao suffered heavy losses, but Han Fu was not happy, the men and horses he sent to encircle and suppress Yecheng were killed by Yuan Shao's second son, Yuan Yao, and returned defeated. In the end, Yuan Shao's army, which returned to the division, became the target of venting his anger, and the whole army was annihilated. In addition, Han Fu retreated from Guangnian, originally pushed all the way to Zhongshan Kingdom, but he did not expect to encounter Gongsun Du of Liaodong here, the result is self-evident, Gongsun Du waited for work, Han Fu's army was defeated, and then the situation in Jizhou was in chaos. ”
At this time, in Hebei, Yuan Shao was greatly injured. Han Fu has no strength to fight again. Lu Bu wolf entered the plain, Gongsun Du was like a-stirring stick, and the situation was a mess, but the lord of Jia Bujian entered at this time. ”
"Why?"
Guo Jia said: "Because. There is also a piece of news that the lord should not want to hear. ”
Cao Cao closed his eyes. Said lightly: "Say ......"
Guo Jia sighed. Said: "There is also a situation in Yangzhou, and it is related to Liaodong Gongsun Du......
Gongsun Du again......
But seeing that Cao Cao didn't seem to react at all, his eyes didn't open. Guo Jia could only continue: "Gongsun Du sent a naval army to the south by sea three days ago, and landed at the Wu County port yesterday evening, Liu Miao and Wang Lang sent a request for help to the lord. ”
Cao Cao opened his eyes and wondered, "How many people are there in the water army?" ”
Guo Jia smiled bitterly: "This is the problem, they are vague, but according to various signs, I am afraid that it is four or five sea ships that can carry about two hundred people, which can be regarded as the most elite force in the Liaodong Gongsun Naval Army." ”
"In other words, there are only about 1,000 people in total, and there are nearly 20,000 garrisons in Wu County, and it is ridiculous that they can't help twenty-one of them." Cao Cao was about to be laughed at angrily, and scolded angrily: "A group of wine bags and rice bags, it's a big deal for me!" ”
Guo Jia is also very helpless, if he was born more than 1,800 years later, then he will definitely know that there is a sentence that is best described, that is, "not afraid of god-like opponents, afraid of pig-like teammates".
Cao Cao suddenly felt a little powerless, and looked at Guo Jia again, "Feng Xiao's face is grim here, if it's just because of this matter, I'm afraid it's not enough, right?" ”
Guo Jia was not surprised that Cao Cao was able to figure it out, he nodded and said: "The situation in this world is like a chess game, and it is a chess game full of chess pieces, which affects the whole body. But now it is Na Lu Bu who moves, and the world changes with it, the situation in Hebei is like this, the situation in Yangzhou is like this, and even ...... The same is true for Qing, Xu, and Yansanzhou. ”
Cao Cao reacted suddenly, "Feng Xiao means that this time it is Xuzhou?" ”
The others are now in Yanzhou, and it is clear what is happening, but Xuzhou, as the rear, has the most stable power, and it doesn't seem like there will be any chaos.
Guo Jia nodded, shook his head again, and said: "It's not all, Xuzhou is a little messy, but it's not very big, and it doesn't affect the overall situation." ”
Cao Cao's eyes were slightly cold, "But what about Xiao Jian?" ”
Guo Jia was stunned, and then reacted, at the beginning of Xuzhou, it was not only him and Xi Zhicai, Cheng Zhongde and others, but the lord himself was also wary of this Xiao Jian, but at that time, he was forced to enter Xuzhou to stabilize dìng, and Cao Cao did not have many people under his hands who were suitable for governing Langya.
However, although Xiao Jian had different intentions and took action, Cao Cao naturally arranged a back hand to guard against it when he continued to use it, although Xiao Jian never made any changes so that he himself was a little lax, but this back hand was always there, so when Xiao Jian wanted to do it, he was quickly recognized, although Langya still caused chaos in China, and even Shun Wang Rong almost died in this chaos, but in the end it was calmed down, Xiao Jian was ambushed, and Liu Rong also woke up. And Li Dian, who was ambushed here, temporarily replaced Langya Xiang, and when Cao Cao arrived, he returned to the army and solved it together.
"Then in addition to this Xuzhou, it is Qingzhou?"
Guo Jia said: "Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, for some reason united, Yuan asked them to send a battle report, our people are already struggling to advance again, ask what is the next step, is it to stabilize or increase the army first?" ”
Although the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army is numerous, known as more than one million, in fact, no prince has ever put them in his eyes, in fact, most of the time these millions of people are scattered and separate, it is a rabble and self-destructive, there is no numerical advantage They can't afford to make any waves, which is why Cao Cao still can't help but reach here for so many affairs.
But now seeing that they are about to unite, it is not easy for foreign forces to intervene, originally Cao Cao sent Xiahou Yuan to lead troops to open up, but now it seems that it is not enough.
However, it is impossible to increase the troops, after all, Cao Cao is a little stretched now, but now the time to recruit troops is not right, so he can only do this first, where can he still draw troops to Qingzhou?
Cao Cao sighed and said suddenly: "Now it seems that we still underestimate this Lu Fengxian." ”
Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao, but he was a little suspicious, although this whole thing seems to be a game set up by someone, and in fact, according to many signs, it also shows that whether it is Hebei, Gongsun Du, Yangzhou or Naqingzhou, it is inseparable from that Lu Bu, but he is not Cao Cao, and he has not had direct contact with Lu Bu, it is hard to believe that a martial artist from the north can have such scheming methods.
You must know that even if this qiē has the work of his subordinates in planning, if he does not have a little resourcefulness and determination as a lord, no matter how good the plan is, it will be useless; But at least based on Guo Jia's observation, the only thing he knows in the world who can do this is Cao Mengde, the lord in front of him.
Then Lu Fengxian, is he really so powerful? Guo Jia suddenly had a hint of yearning in his eyes, wanting to see his true face and see what kind of character he was.
Cao Cao didn't notice the change in Guo Jia's expression, he closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, his fingers were tapping, circling, and rubbing on his knees, and finally he suddenly stopped, opened his eyes, looked at Guo Jia, and said word by word: "Command the three armies, start to make food, and then immediately set off to the north." ”
Guo Jia couldn't help but be stunned, of course he understood what Cao Cao meant, this short sentence may affect the situation in the whole world, but in Cao Cao's words, it seems that he is an insignificant son who falls on the chessboard easily.
But seeing Cao Cao's solemn face, he knew that it would not be easy for Cao Cao to make such a decision, even if it seemed that many parties had taken it into account now, who knew what kind of development would be in the future, and the key was that Lu Bu, wouldn't he expect Cao Cao's move, and would he have any means because of this?
Then he suddenly laughed: "Well, Jia will go down and arrange ......"
Anyway, since it is a decision made by you Cao Mengde, and I Guo Fengxiao fully supports it, so what's the harm in going to the soup? (To be continued......)
