Advice against the ear also depends on the situation.

If Yuan Shao was a monarch who only knew how to go his own way, he would have already ended up betraying his relatives.

Before he listens to what people say, he must first distinguish his position and position.

Like Tian Fenggang's surname, he often offended Yuan Shao with words, although the starting point was for Yuan Shao's sake, but Yuan Shao was angry in his heart.

Cao Ying is to feel Yuan Shao's spleen surname clearly, decades of hair small, whether Yuan Shao has seen Cao Shao clearly, it's hard to say, but Cao Ying has a clear insight into Yuan Shao's whole person from the inside out.

Put your posture down, don't be domineering, don't be outspoken, Yuan Shao has mistakes and mistakes, and discuss with Yuan Shao in a tone of seeking advice, so that Yuan Shao will listen with his heart, think, and then accept it without losing face.

So why Guo Tu's words are often adopted by Yuan Shao, but Tian Feng's words are often forgotten by Yuan Shao, the major theories of right and wrong are not the focus, but the attitude.

Cao Ying was originally a prince on an equal footing with Yuan Shao, and his official position was slightly lower than Yuan Shao, but the Son of Heaven was Cao Shao's caged bird, he was already the bull's ear in the world, but he could still whisper in front of Yuan Shao, and even compared to Yuan Shao's subordinates, his performance did not abruptly show a flattering posture, but respect and respect, Yuan Shao enjoyed such a situation.

If all the princes of the world can come to him respectfully as if they were worshipping, he may be able to die of happiness.

Yuan Shao pondered for a moment, pretended to be considerate, nodded and said thoughtfully: "Meng De's words are reasonable, if Guo Jia refuses to be captured, then he must set up heavy troops in the area of Hangu Pass, and wants to rely on the danger of Kuihan to stop our army like Dong Zhuo did back then." The surprise attack on Wuguan will definitely be able to succeed in one battle. According to Mengde's opinion, you and me, who will attack Wuguan? ”

Cao Ying heard that Yuan Shao agreed to this strategy, but did not show a happy expression, but still smiled indifferently.

"Brother Ben Chu is strong and strong, and there are unparalleled fierce generals, it is better for Brother Ben Chu to personally lead the troops to attack Wuguan, and lead the army to confront Guo Jia at Hangu Pass."

It seems that Cao Ying is thinking about Yuan Shao.

Hangu Pass has Guo Jia's heavy troops, and Wuguan is difficult to compare with Hangu Pass in terms of geographical location and defensive strength, but Cao Ying instead shouldered the heavy responsibility, and asked Yuan Shao to do the easy task, which is too abnormal.

Yuan Shao was also suspicious.

Hangu Pass or Wuguan, which one is easy to fight?

The answer is obvious.

But Yuan Shao frowned and hesitated.

His army of 200,000 came all the way from Jizhou, could it be further south? Wuguan is adjacent to Jingzhou, and there is Wancheng Zhang Xiu in Nanyang, and it is easy for him to lead the army, but the transportation of grain and grass will increase the burden and loss.

Will Zhang Xiu take the opportunity to make trouble and make an obstacle from it? Logically speaking, Zhang Xiu didn't have that guts.

But is war child's play? It's often embarrassing to just guess the end.

In particular, Yuan Shao was once the leader of the alliance to crusade against Dong Zhuo, and Zhang Ji was a general under Dong Zhuo, and there were old grudges between them.

Besides, attacking Wuguan, how could Yuan Shao bring 200,000 soldiers and horses? If he personally led the army to Wuguan, the soldiers and horses left in Luoyang would be under Cao Ying's nose, in case Cao Ying played any tricks, Yuan Shao did not dare to guarantee that he would still have the life to return to Hebei.

Cao Ying, who is famous for recruiting rebellions, rose like a comet in the Central Plains, and the benefit was the surrender of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban.

After thinking about it, Yuan Shao felt that he couldn't go to Wuguan, and his army couldn't go either.

Fighting Wuguan is a surprise attack, which is to open a gap from the weak link of Guanzhong's defense, so that the overall defense of Guanzhong collapses.

As long as Wuguan is lost, Chang'an will be in danger.

In this way, the defenders of Hangu Pass were also distracted, and if they did not withdraw their troops to rescue Chang'an, after the fall of Chang'an, Hangu Pass would also be isolated.

"Just Wuguan, why bother? Meng De only needs to send a general to lead 50,000 soldiers and horses to win, and Meng De will stay in Luoyang and wait for the good news with me. ”

Yuan Shao looked indifferent, and his tone of voice was completely commanding his subordinates.

Obviously, Yuan Shao didn't give Cao Ying room to bargain, and when he said this, it was already a resolution.

not only let Cao Ying go to fight Wuguan, but also leave Cao Ying in Luoyang and stay by his side to guard against it.

Cao Ying had a breezy expression from beginning to end, and agreed after chuckling a few times.

This surprised Yuan Shao.

But Cao Shao is always Cao Shao, and Yuan Shao is always Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao thinks that he is famous and respected, so what if Cao Ying stays in Luoyang alone? Does Yuan Shao dare to be unfavorable to Cao Ying? It's easy to kill Cao Ying, but the body stained by Cao Ying's blood can't be washed.

Cao Ying took over the task without rebutting at all, and then got up to leave.

At this time, Guo Tu returned to Luoyang and went back and forth to Yuan Shao for the first time.

"My lord, it's not good."

Guo Tu came in steps, lowered his head to wipe his sweat, raised his head after shouting a word, and happened to see Cao Ying who was about to leave, the two happened to be face to face, Guo Tu's wide mouth also forgot to close, he seemed to be stunned and couldn't move.

"What's the matter? What did Guo Jia say? ”

Yuan Shao was blocked by Cao Ying, and he didn't see the embarrassment on Guo Tu's face.

In fact, the first sentence after Guo Tu entered the door was "The big thing is not good", and the second sentence was ready to say "Cao Agui has bad intentions".

Fortunately, there was the first sentence that could be regarded as a greeting, otherwise Guo Tu would have given the other party a slap in front of Cao Ying.

Cao Ying has bad intentions, it is all tacit things, and if he says it, he will inevitably cause trouble.

Cao Ying also had a strange expression, because he noticed that Guo Tu looked evasive when he faced him, as if he was a thief, but he didn't care.

Anyway, everyone comes and goes, they are all intriguing, no one is a simple-minded person, and there is no need to pretend to be a gentleman.

The most basic thing is the expression written on the face, and then the style of doing things.

Gou Jian has suffered countless bullies and tribulations, and he has endured them, this is the real city government bottomless, as for the expression reaction of others who are still indifferent after naming and insulting a few words, it can be regarded as an entry.

Cao Ying has been discriminated against since he was a child, and he is often like this after eunuchs, he has long been honored and disgraced, and his joy and anger are not obvious.

Even if Guo Tu's expression told him that there must be something Guo Tu wanted to hide from him, and it was likely to be unfavorable to him, Cao Ying could pretend to turn a blind eye, and instead followed Yuan Shao's words and asked: "Guo Jia is edicted or resistant?" ”

His mouth was quickly closed, and after returning to his normal color, Guo Tu brewed his emotions and adjusted his mentality.

Replace the originally prepared remarks against Cao Ying with Guo Jia.

"Guo Jia refused to return to Yizhou, saying that this holy decree was an overkill."

For Guo Jia, Guo Tu is not good at verbal attacks.

After all, from the essence of the matter, Guo Jia didn't feel sorry for Yuan Shao and Cao Ying, and now Cao Ying wants Guo Jia to return to Yizhou with such an unconvincing holy decree, and the mud bodhisattva still has three points of anger, such a bullying thing, no one can stand it.

For Cao Ying, Guo Jia's reaction was expected.

"Hehe, when Li Dao Guo Yan held the Son of Heaven hostage and named him the pastor of Yizhou, he didn't say that it was an overkill, is there a Son of Heaven in his eyes? When he received the edict, he was a Hanchen, but now he wants to be a thief. ”

Cao Ying chuckled and counted down, then turned to Yuan Shaoyi and arched his hand and said, "Brother Benchu, since Guo Jia refuses to obey the edict, then we will act according to the previous plan." ”

"Oh."

Yuan Shaoxing didn't agree to anything.

He was in a state of frustration.

Guo Tu's big deal was not good, and Guo Jia did not obey the edict.

In fact, it is a signal that Guo Jia refuses to join him.

Happily threw the beast face pattern wall on the table, and after Cao Ying left, Yuan Shao stood up and paced back and forth with his hands in his hands, frowning.

Guo Jia does not surrender, he wants to fight Guanzhong, if Cao Ying does not surrender in the future, he will also fight the Central Plains, Liu Biao does not surrender, Sun Ce does not surrender...... Why are there so many people in the world who don't know the times?

If every prince wants him to personally lead troops to conquer by force, then when will it be possible to pacify the world and stabilize the country?

Guo Jia is the second prince in the world in terms of territory and military strength, and he happens to be below Yuan Shao.

Therefore, Guo Jia's choice will affect the overall situation, if Guo Jia is attached to Yuan Shao today, almost all the princes with small power can surrender.

This is Guo Jia's influence among the princes of the world now, but he is attached to Yuan Shao, and this practice of being a willing minister is a matter of family and surname, not only for the monarch, but also for a large number of civil ministers and military generals.

If Guo Jia's family is small and the business is small, there is little resistance to being attached to anyone.

Now, Guo Jia dared to tell his subordinates that he planned to take refuge in Yuan Shao or Cao Ying, and the next second everyone would immediately betray his relatives and leave.

"Lord, Cao Apu is really calculating the lord everywhere this time."

Cao Ying left, and Guo Tu could lash out freely.

Don't look at Yuan Shao worrying now, as if he doesn't care about why Guo Jia doesn't drop, but after a while, Yuan Shao will definitely ask for an understanding.

The self-righteous Yuan Shao now has a wide territory, a lot of soldiers, horses, money and food, and is the first in the world, even if Guo Jia does not surrender, Yuan Shao has to make trouble to understand whether Guo Jia wants to oppose him or want to negotiate conditions.

Anyway, this level can't be fooled.

Guo Tu took the initiative and put the responsibility on Cao Ying's head first.

Yuan Shao stopped, turned his head and looked at Guo Tu suspiciously.

Cao Ying was playing the trick of driving the tiger and devouring the wolf, Yuan Shao had a countermeasure, and brought Cao Ying to fight Guo Jia together, and he couldn't let Cao Ying sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

As for what other conspiracies and tricks, Yuan Shao didn't care very much, but he was also quite curious.

Guo Tu took a step forward and said with a solemn face: "Lord, it can be written clearly in this holy decree, Guanzhong is guarded by Zhong Xuan, once Guo Jia withdraws from Guanzhong, in what name will the lord occupy Guanzhong?" ”

The problem?

Yuan Shao had already thought about it.

So he told Cao Ying before that as long as he laid down Guanzhong, the territory would be enclosed to him.

"Didn't Cao Apo promise that after the matter was completed, he would go to the table and the Son of Heaven would seal Guanzhong to me?"

Yuan Shao was a little impatient.

Guo Tu is still inducing Chunchun.

"But what if Cao Apu repents?"

"How dare he?!"

Yuan Shao glared at Guo Tu, but he was startled first.

Will Cao Mengde, who robbed the bride and the eagle lackey with him, be treacherous?

Maybe the surname is very high.
