Chapter 48: Invincible

There are many things that are not deeply thought about, and if you don't think about them carefully, it is difficult to gain insight into the mystery inside.

Yuan Shao suddenly came to his senses at this moment.

Of the three conditions he put forward to Cao Ying, Cao Ying could complete the first one and send troops to attack Guanzhong together.

But the latter two, one gave him Guanzhong, and the other sent the Son of Heaven to Yecheng.

With these two conditions, Cao Ying really has the confidence to regret it.

Treachery can often be used as a major offense among princes.

It's just that this time, if Yuan Shao and Cao Yingzhen break the guanzhong, and Cao Ying reneges the contract, Yuan Shao has no reason to accuse Cao Ying of anything.

Is it possible to make the beginning and end of Cao Ying's treachery public?

Yuan Shao is the general of the Han family, with a high and powerful position, but he is not the Son of Heaven, the territory of the Han Dynasty, it is the Son of Heaven who enshrined it to you, it is yours, if it is not enshrined to you, do you dare to rob it openly? If Yuan Shao uses this reason to accuse Cao Ying, it is equivalent to pointing the finger at the Son of Heaven, and he, the prince of the Han Dynasty who raised troops to eliminate the violence in the fourth world and the third prince, is not tantamount to committing rebellion?

As for the Son of Heaven moving to Yecheng, not to mention, Yuan Shao can only use it publicly, not openly rob it, otherwise what is the difference between him and Li Dao, Guo Yan, and Dong Zhuo?

At first, he didn't think so deeply, Yuan Shao only felt that he was strong, and Cao Ying didn't have the courage to break the contract.

Now that I think about it, if Cao Ying breaks the contract, he can only be dumb and eat Coptis chinensis and have a hard time.

His expression was heavy and his eyes were gloomy.

Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes and said softly: "If Cao Apu really bears me, then don't blame me for not remembering the old feelings." ”

If Cao Ying really clings to the Son of Heaven and doesn't let go, Yuan Shao will only have one last way left.

forced Cao Ying onto the same path as Dong Zhuo and Li Dao and Guo Yan.

Yuan Shao's power is constantly expanding, and there will eventually be a-for-tat confrontation between Hebei and the Central Plains, and Cao Shao will not be attached, will Yuan Shao be able to give up?

Since Cao Ying is blocking Yuan Shao's pace, Yuan Shao can only eliminate Cao Shao.

Guo Tu saw that Yuan Shao really put his mind on Cao Ying's head, and I have to say that he was a little crooked.

"Lord, in my opinion, in this attack on the pass, Cao Apu's original intention is probably to make both the lord and Guo Jia lose, so Cao Apu is very likely to make a hindrance from it, and I hope that the lord will be on guard as soon as possible."

Yuan Shao sneered disdainfully, and said the strategic deployment between him and Cao Ying, and added a sentence at the end.

"The 50,000 soldiers and horses brought by Cao Apu are all going to fight Wuguan, and he will stay with me, and he will not dare to play any conspiracy."

"It turns out that the lord has been prepared for a long time, and he is offering ugliness under him, hehe, the lord is looking at the dragon, how can he not think about it?"

Guo Tu's sycophant slap Yuan Shao was comfortable, and his serious expression instantly smiled.

The words are divided into two ends.

Cao Ying returned to his residence with a relaxed pace, in the inner hall study, Cheng Yu and Xun You waited for a long time, after Cao Ying returned, Cheng Yu asked urgently: "How about the lord and Yuan Shao discuss?" ”

Cao Ying smiled heartily.

"Yuan Benchu really hit the plan, and Ming said let Yuan Rang and Miaocai lead the army to Wuguan."

From the very beginning, Cao Ying wanted to transfer his soldiers and horses away from Yuan Shao's nose because he had other plans.

However, after finishing speaking, Cao Ying chuckled again: "Yuan Benchu was still afraid that I would secretly use cold arrows behind his back, so he asked me to stay by his side and attack Hangu Pass with him." ”

Cheng Yu and Xun You were suddenly startled, and Xun You asked eagerly, "How did the lord reply to Yuan Shao?" ”

Cao Ying disagreed, and said, "I agreed." ”

Promised?!

Cheng Yu and Xun You's expressions were extremely incredible.

When the two of them were about to persuade a few words, Cao Ying raised his hand to stop their words, and said with a smile: "Yuan Benchu waved an army of 200,000 to come, he wants to harm me, even if I bring 50,000 soldiers and horses by my side, I am afraid of accidents, the current situation, I must not give Yuan Benchu and Guo Jiayan a chance to make peace, so I must stay, hehe, I want to be by Yuan Benchu's side to see how he is defeated step by step." ”

Cheng Yu and Xun Yu had solemn expressions and were in awe of Cao Ying.

This courage is rare in the world.

Staying here with Yuan Shao without soldiers and horses is an adventure and a fate.

But Cao Ying rose in the Central Plains, the Central Plains extends in all directions, the land of a hundred battles, surrounded by strong enemies, Cao Ying from the cracks step by step to today, from the day of the army, he only has a few thousand soldiers and horses of the poor children of the clan, and now has more than 100,000 soldiers, from a county Taishou to the ruler of Yanzhou Yuzhou, from a eunuch to today's coercion of the princes!

Crusade against the Yellow Turban, counterattack Lu Bu, reverse Yuan Shu, after several life and death, Cao Ying is alive strong, and better than his enemies, in the future, he will also recruit Zhang Xiu, ask Lu Bu, destroy Yuan Shu, and resist Yuan Shao...... It is indeed dangerous to stay by Yuan Shao's side today, but he is already fearless, with his understanding of Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao will not kill him until the two sides officially tear their faces.

Cao Ying is full of confidence and confidence, the most fundamental reason is whether Yuan Shao and him turn their faces, the decision is in the hands of Cao Ying, Yuan Shao is strong, but Yuan Shao is not as good as Cao Ying coerced the Son of Heaven to make the princes justifiable, Cao Ying can put out the righteousness of the Son of Heaven in any battle, that is, the drum of the dignified and the banner of righteousness, Yuan Shao will not have much resistance to fight anyone, but he has to hesitate and think for a long time before fighting Cao Ying.

and informed Cheng Yu and Xun Yu of Guo Jia's reaction, Cao Ying couldn't help but ask with a smug face: "In your opinion, can Guo Jia see the pros and cons of the situation?" ”

Now that Cao Ying has made a resolution, Xun You and Cheng Yu no longer insist, hearing Cao Ying's question, Xun You looked thoughtful, and only said lightly after a while: "Guo Jia's name is like thunder, but I don't have the opportunity to contact this person below, and I don't know him well, but if Xun Shangshu is here, I must believe that Guo Jia can see the master's plan clearly." ”

Cao Ying was stunned for a moment, his smug expression disappeared a lot, and he nodded when he heard the words.

Xun Yu knows Guo Jia better than them.

Cheng Yu stroked his gray beard thoughtfully, and he had an inexplicable awe of Guo Jia.

Because he believed that Cao Song was killed that year, Zhang Min's confession was true.

"The lord did not hesitate to damage his prestige this time and designed Guo Jia and Yuan Shao, no matter whether he wins or loses, the lord will reap the benefits, whether Guo Jia has seen through the lord's plan, it depends on how he responds."

Although Cheng Yu is fascinated by Guo Jia, it does not mean that he is blind, whether Guo Jia can penetrate Cao Jia's strategy, there will be an answer on the battlefield.

The three major princes who attracted the attention of the world fought in Guanzhong, and now before the battle started, Cao Ying lost his prestige first.

Because of the edict he gave to Guo Jia, it is difficult for a strong person to say something good, and it is unreasonable to make trouble if it is not good.

Guo Jia's disrespect for the will of the princes of the world will react.

To go to war under this pretext is really against the unspoken rules between the princes.

Otherwise, what is the difference between Cao Ying and the emperor? He issued an edict to let you give away the territory, if you don't obey, you are a traitor, the game between the princes is not played like this, if Cao Ying is like this every time, it is equivalent to making enemies in the world, and sooner or later he will be attacked by the princes, and it will not be far from his destruction.

On the battlefield, 1,000 enemies were wounded and 800 were self-inflicted.

Cao Ying did not hesitate to damage himself first and then hurt the enemy this time, which sounds like an unwise move.

But Cao Ying doesn't think so.

can provoke a war between Guo Jia and Yuan Shao, what if he loses some prestige?

can delay Yuan Shao for three or five years, give him breathing space, and continue to be strong.

Cao Ying felt that the loss this time was nothing compared to the benefit.

"Oh? What does Zhong De mean by this? How can Guo Jia deal with it to see his thoughts? ”

Cao Ying smiled playfully again.

Cheng Yu's expression was solemn, and he arched his hand towards Cao Yingyi and said: "If Guo Jiaruo defends with all his might, it means that he has not seen that the lord is the ultimate beneficiary at all." If Guo Jia not only wants to hold Guanzhong, but also severely damage the army of the lord and Yuan Shao, it means that Guo Jia has guessed the lord's mind, and the main battle means that Guo Jia does not want the lord to get his wish. ”

If Guo Jia is here, he will definitely have the same feelings as Cheng Yu as a hero.

Yuan Shao and Cao Ying, no matter whether they win or lose, no matter their gains or losses, Guo Jia has nothing to gain.

In this battle, Guo Jia is not expanding, but holding on to the vested results, there is no immortal in such a defensive battle, there is no one who does not consume financial resources, and there is no one who does not reduce strength.

So even if Guo Jia is invincible, in fact, at the moment when Yuan Shao and Cao Yingbing came to Luoyang, Guo Jia had already lost.

Cao Ying successfully instigated Yuan Shao to fight Guanzhong, and Cao Ying had already won.

As for whether Yuan Shao can defeat Guanzhong, for Guo Jia, it is nothing more than how miserable he lost.

In order not to let Cao Ying's fishermen benefit, Guo Jia had to fight, and the strategic purpose was to do his best to eliminate Yuan Shao and Cao Ying's soldiers and horses.

"Really? No matter what Guo Jia does, even if he can leave all the 200,000 soldiers and horses of Yuan Benchu in Guanzhong, hehe, I will always be the beneficiary. ”

Cao Ying is not afraid that Guo Jia can see his plan, because Guo Jia is passive, and the situation is not something that Guo Jia can lead.

There is one thing that Yuan Shao didn't expect, if Guanzhong is really laid, Cao Ying will not break the contract on this condition, and will definitely seal Guanzhong to Yuan Shao.

Because Yuan Shao's entry into the customs means that he must always guard against Guo Jia's counterattack in Yizhou.

If this situation arises, Cao Ying's next strategy is to turn enemies into friends with Guo Jia, and whatever Guo Jia wants, Cao Ying will give him.

Guo Jia, who lost Guanzhong, no longer made the princes jealous, but Cao Ying wanted to use the knife to kill people.

At that time, Guo Jia was in Yizhou, he was in the Central Plains, and they refused to be Yuan Shao together, Yuan Shao was difficult to take care of, and Cao Ying wanted to defeat the strong with the weak, so he had a few more chances of winning.

What's more, Guanzhong is in ruins, Guo Jiade Guanzhong, he has to recuperate for several years, and Yuan Shaode Guanzhong, the same is true, so that Cao Ying has more time to strengthen himself.

Yuan Shao has 400,000 troops, even if he has no loss of soldiers and horses after this battle, he will have to station 150,000 troops in Guanzhong, after all, Guo Jia still has 100,000 soldiers and horses in Yizhou.

In this game set up by Cao Ying, from beginning to end, he is the one who is truly invincible.

As for whether the 50,000 soldiers and horses he brought would be lost on the battlefield, he had other plans.
