Chapter 41: Fearless of the World

When he got Cao Ying and Yuan Shao to join forces in Luoyang, Guo Jia had an ominous premonition in his heart.

It's a sense of crisis.

But his heart was very calm.

Maybe if he were Cao Ying, he would also seize the best fighter this spring to suppress the enemy.

The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and they will not be afraid.

Military experts often say that they don't fight unprepared battles, but Guo Jia is now passive, and the opponent wants to take advantage of his unpreparedness to attack him.

Plans are always good, but the reality is to destroy people's dreams with cruel processes.

Guo Jiade Guanzhong, three or five years later, will leap into the sky and compete with today's Yuan Shao.

Therefore, Cao Ying, who is dominating the Central Plains, wants to contain Guo Jia, which is a situation that Guo Jia has been psychologically prepared for.

As Pang Tong analyzed, Yuan Shao and Cao Ying had more than 200,000 soldiers and horses in Luoyang, and they were as powerful as Mount Tai and wanted to destroy them.

This is all superficial, in fact, Guo Jia is not afraid of these 200,000 soldiers and horses, he has 80,000 people in the pass, which is enough to refuse to be 200,000, or even 300,000 soldiers and horses outside the pass.

As long as there is no war in delay, it will be difficult for foreign enemies to enter the Guanzhong.

No matter how rich Hebei is, no matter how much grain and grass Yuan Shao has, if the war drags on for a year and a half, he will run out of food.

Guess is guess, prediction is prediction, the preparation that should be made, the accident that should be prevented, or the arrangement and preparation one by one.

It is undeniable that there are more than 200,000 people in Luoyang now, but will there be more?

Will Cao Ying increase his troops, and will Yuan Shao increase his troops?

It may not be possible to analyze, but many smart people are planted in self-righteous analysis.

After the military deployment was properly arranged, Guo Jia's face remained the same, and he still calmly returned to the backyard.

Walking through the court, he was annoyed in his heart.

After all, this era is an era of underdeveloped information.

He knew very little about the development of the situation in Hebei.

Cao Ying came to beat him, Guo Jia understood, but he would laugh at him in his heart for not being able to do his best.

Yuan Shao came to beat him, Guo Jia admired, there are always people who think they are invincible in the world when they get carried away, as long as Yuan Shao comes, Guo Jia doesn't mind giving him a slap in the face.

But when Cao Ying and Yuan Shao came together, Guo Jia was really a little caught off guard, and with a little brain, he knew that it must be Cao Ying who instigated Yuan Shao.

Guo Jia thought, did Yuan Shao solve his worries?

Has Gongsun Chan been defeated in Youzhou?

Guo Jia knew very little about Hebei's intelligence, and the time required for the detailed work to give back information was very long, which was limited by the technology of the times.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Guo Jia hoped that Yuan Shu, Lu Bu, and Gongsun Zan would all live a few more years, and that these princes who did not border his territory would be able to make trouble for his close enemies if they could jump for a few more days.

The door of the study is wide open, and the light shines in, and the room is transparent, Guo Jiamai walked in and saw Cai Yan being tested for Guo Ye's handwriting skills.

When Guo Jia arrived, the mother and son stopped their movements and looked at Guo Jia, Guo Ye couldn't see anything from Guo Jia's calm expression.

Cai Yan, who has been sleeping with Guo Jia for several years, is as careful as a hair and finds the heaviness under Guo Jia's calmness.

"This month's homework will copy the poetry three times, and if there is a word that is not written well, the punishment will be increased again."

Cai Yan first arranged some homework for Guo Ye, and then walked towards Guo Jia.

Guo Jia, who was silent, turned around and came outside the house with Cai Yan.

Calm is calm, but it is not easy.

"Husband, isn't there something big happening?"

Cai Yan knew that Guo Jia was thinking, but he couldn't help but be curious, so he asked.

Guo Jia nodded lightly, then looked at the boundless blue sky, and said: "Yuan Shao, Cao Ying, more than 200,000 soldiers and horses have been stationed in Luoyang, I expect that the fastest ten days, the slowest month, the two of them will send troops to attack Guanzhong after they are fully prepared." ”

Even if Yuan Shao and Cao Ying's soldiers and horses arrived in Luoyang, they would always have to rest for a while and ensure that the follow-up grain and grass were sufficient before attacking, and it was not a short distance from Jizhou to Luoyang.

Cai Yan's face was slightly startled.

Once, Guo Jia said that occupying Guanzhong is very sensitive, and if you are not careful, it will attract strong enemies from all sides.

Unexpectedly, Guo Jia was cautious and developed in a low-key and pragmatic manner, but he was still jealous of Yuan Shao and Cao Ying.

With a slight hint of self-deprecating wry, Cai Yan laughed at himself as if he was too emotional.

Thinking in an optimistic direction everywhere, in the final analysis, it is because Guo Jia is her husband.

With the establishment of the Qin and Han dynasties, Guanzhong had an indelible military position.

As long as Guo Jia is in Guanzhong, no matter how low-key he is, he will be on the cusp.

Yuan Shao and Cao Ying's army attacked, which should be expected, and what is there to be surprised.

"How are you going to deal with it?"

Guo Jia didn't answer Cai Yan's question, but said lightly: "You go and pack your bags and take Ye'er back to Chengdu overnight." ”

Since Cao Ying and Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses have come, the battle cannot be fought without fighting.

Settle down with his family first, Guo Jia doesn't have to be distracted by others, so as not to have worries.

Cai Yan wanted to speak and stopped, but finally turned around silently and walked towards the living room.

Compared to Chang'an, Chengdu is obviously safer.

And once the news of Yuan Shao and Cao Yingbing's arrival in Luoyang spreads out in Guanzhong, there will inevitably be a period of chaos in various parts of Guanzhong.

The people can't tell the difference between the strong and the weak, and they don't think much about justice and right and wrong.

Yuan Shaoqiang is recognized all over the world.

Cao Ying is fierce and famous.

These two people came together to fight Guo Jia in the customs, and the people must not be optimistic about Guo Jia in their eyes.

Horses are good at being ridden, and people are good at being bullied.

Guo Jia treats the people well and is benevolent, but he lacks the confidence of Yuan Shao's fourth and third dukes, and he does not have the tyrannical prestige of Cao Ying's slaughter of the city, so ordinary people must think that Guo Jia can't beat Cao Ying and Yuan Shao.

At this moment, Yuan Shao and Cao Ying did not officially attack Guanzhong, but Guo Jia already hated the two of them.

Their might has predictably caused chaos in Guanzhong.

Although it may not make Guo Jia fall into a ruined fate, there will definitely be many people who will go into exile again in order to survive, and most of the wealthy families in Yizhou who are greedy for life and afraid of death will also evacuate Guanzhong.

Before the chaos, send the family back first, which can be regarded as Guo Jia's protection of the mother and son.

In the evening, the sky is like fire.

The carriage outside the mansion has been prepared, and five hundred guards are responsible for escorting Cai Yan and Guo Ye away.

At the door, Guo Jia and Jia Xu stood side by side, and Guo Ye went to meet Jia Xu before leaving, which was what he should do as a disciple.

"Won't Mr. go back to Chengdu together?"

Guo Ye was reluctant to give up on Jia Xu.

After all, Jia Xu taught Guo Ye not strictly, he was relaxed, and he always taught Guo Ye to focus on teaching, and he didn't find fault with the details.

Now that Guo Ye has not seen Jia Xu for a few days, he will always feel very awkward, and he really has a feeling like a master and a father for Jia Xu.

Jia Xu smiled kindly and said to Guo Ye: "After the son returns to Chengdu, don't be greedy for fun, don't slack off in every homework, and after I return to Chengdu, if the son does not grow, then I will be ruthless to punish the son." ”

"Ye'er knows."

Guo Ye turned around and got into the carriage in frustration.

Guo Jia and Jia Xu watched the convoy leave together, and their expressions gradually changed from warm smiles to calm, and then heavy.

The scene was quiet, and Jia Xu planned to retire and leave.

He didn't know the specific military intelligence, but he could see the clues from the movements in Chang'an.

The barracks were reorganized for war, and the officials were all preoccupied.

Plus Guo Jia urgently sent his son and wife away.

It seems that the war in Guanzhong is about to rekindle.

"Sir, Yuan Zhi, Xiao Zhi, and Shi Yuan have been waiting in the house for a long time, please come with me to discuss with them."

Guo Jia sent out an invitation before Jia Xu wanted to open his mouth to say goodbye.

Jia Xu's face did not change, but he was extremely surprised in his heart.

Looking at Guo Jia's solemn expression, Jia Xu understood.

His chance to rise to the top has come.

A Guo Ye's division commander is not enough for him to serve the public.

Now, in the crisis in Guanzhong, the army is not about to come to the city, and this kind of crisis is an opportunity for talented people to show their talents.

Jia Xu followed Guo Jia into the house, and in the side hall, Fa Zheng, Xu Shu, and Pang Tong waited for a long time, but they did not talk to each other.

They didn't know what Guo Jia was looking for them.

The sound of footsteps came, and the three of them were shocked, and when they saw Guo Jia walking in, they got up and saluted, and then saw Jia Xu, and the three of them were a little confused.

They only know that Jia Xu is Guo Ye's division commander, and Jia Xu's past deeds, even if they know some, there is not much surprise.

Guo Jia sat down on the main seat, and then said to Xu Shu: "Yuan Zhi, tell Mr. Wenhe all the information you have obtained." ”

Jia Xu sat calmly, neither humble nor arrogant.

And Pang Tong, Fa Zheng and Xu Shu were really shocked.

couldn't help but set his eyes on Jia Xu again, as if he knew him again.

Informing Jia Xu of the military situation is not a big deal.

Instead, Guo Jia asked Xu Shu to say it by name, and in this case, the metaphor is already obvious.

Guo Jia wanted them to correct Jia Xu's position in their hearts first.

What puzzles them is that if Jia Xu is so valued by Guo Jia, why didn't Guo Jia use him earlier?

Xu Shu racked his brains and couldn't figure it out, many speculations and ideas were put aside for the time being, and Xu Shu told Jia Xu about the situation facing Guanzhong one by one with a serious expression.

After hearing this, Jia Xu looked at Guo Jia and said softly: "Lord, are you planning to kill Yuan Shao and Cao Ying without leaving a piece of armor?" ”

Now, he can officially call Guo Jia the lord.

As soon as Jia Xu said this, Pang Tong, Fa Zheng, and Xu Shu all showed shocked expressions.

They were even more shocked when they saw that Guo Jia did not open his mouth to deny it.

There is a geographical advantage in the pass, as long as Guo Jia mobilizes troops and delays the defense, Yuan Shao and Cao Ying will definitely retreat.

Such a strategy to deal with the enemy, although conservative, is foolproof, enough to make Guo Jia invincible.

The point is, being invincible is not necessarily winning.

Focused by the four people, Guo Jia said lightly: "I expect Yuan Shao to want Guanzhong, Cao Ying wants to take the opportunity to consume Yuan Shao, no matter which of them gets their wish, not only do I not have the slightest benefit, but I am being used, and for no reason I want to fight a battle that outweighs the losses, hehe, I think, I want to officially occupy Guanzhong, to make Guanzhong really my territory, this battle, I must win, and win." ”

Maybe this is not a battle, but for Guo Jia, only by winning this battle can he establish his status among the princes of the world.

The dragon has reverse scales, and it will be angry when it is touched, and the princes and overlords are not afraid of the world!
