After Yuan Shao defeated Liu Bei and captured Xuzhou, his strength skyrocketed, and he had five states: Youzhou, Jizhou, Qingzhou, Gunzhou, and Xuzhou. He did not stop because of this, but concentrated his forces and stormed Cao Cao's Yuzhou.

Although Cao Cao is outside of Yuzhou, he is also related to Zhongzhong, Kanxi Chang'an. But Gao Yuan and Xiliang Ma Teng restrained him too many troops.

Although it is already the end of the year, if he can't send troops and horses, I'm afraid he won't be able to pass the year.

Cao Cao felt pressured, and now the only way was to form an alliance with Gao Yuan. He was very worried that Gao Yuan would refuse, so he sent his first strategist Guo Jia.

Jinyang City, Gaoyuan Mansion, Council Hall.

After Guo Jia finished repeating Cao Cao's wishes, he carefully looked at Gao Yuan. He came all the way to Jinyang and saw the great development of Bingzhou, and the hot labor scenes of people everywhere always echoed in his mind.

In the hall, there are famous generals like Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun, as well as strategists like Sima Yi and Xu Shu. Even Xu Huang, Yu Ban, Xu Chu and others also looked directly at Guo Jia without guilt, and with hostility.

Guo Jia knows that it is because of Xu Huang and others that they can achieve a clear conscience because they abandon the darkness and turn to the light. Yes, abandon the darkness and turn to the light, what is there to feel guilty about.

Guo Jia couldn't help but sigh, in less than two years, Gao Yuan has grown from a young man in the past to a world-famous prince. He is under the command of Wu Ding, not under anyone. Although it is only one state, the development potential is amazing. And it took Cao Cao nearly twenty years to do all this.

Gao Yuan was silent, and said: "Feng Xiaoyuan has worked hard. Let's go and rest first. ”

Guo Jia bowed when he heard this, which was also something he expected, and he wanted to come down by himself. Takato will discuss this matter with his subordinates.

When Guo Jia left, Gao Yuan looked at everyone, and his eyes stopped at Sima Yi and Xu Shu.

Sima Yi said in a deep voice: "After Yuan Benchu eliminated Liu Bei, he owned five states, all of which were rich in the world, and each state had 50,000 guards, with a total of more than 500,000 soldiers and horses of all kinds. Now. More than 200,000 troops attacked Cao Cao's Yuzhou. Cao Mengde, this is really unbearable. ”

Xu Shu said heavily: "Yuan Benchu's expansion is too fast. ”

The two of them can't make up their minds for the lord, they just analyze it from the side.

Like Zhao Yun and others. Just listening, they know that they need the lord and two military advisors to make up their minds in this general direction.

Gao Yuan really didn't think of a strategy to seek a foundation for himself. Thus helped Yuan Shao in the Battle of Guandu. Yuan Shao really turned over. He couldn't sit back and watch Yuan Benchu become an unshakable behemoth, so he said: "I plan to eliminate hostility with Cao Cao and face Yuan Shao together, what do you think?" ”

The lord asked, and the two naturally had to say what they really thought.

Xu Shu said: "What the lord said is very true, and cooperation is beneficial to both parties!" ”

Sima Yi's eyes lit up and said, "But you can't easily agree to Cao Cao." ”

Gao Yuan nodded, and ordered someone to recall Guo Jia.

Guo Jia didn't expect that there would be half an hour. After a back and forth, he thought that Gao Yuan must have made a choice. I can't help but admire the efficiency of Gao Yuan's work. After entering the hall, he hurriedly saluted: "General Gao, you can join forces with my lord to contain Yuan Benchu." ”

Gao Yuan was silent when he heard this, and said: "Yuan Benchu was in the north and the Central Plains, and I was just a couple in the mountains. If they join forces, they still need Cao Gong's support. ”

After Guo Jia heard it, he sighed bitterly, he heard that Gao Yuan was asking for the benefits of the alliance, so he had to tell the truth, Cao Cao's money and food were almost insufficient, and finally said: "If the general can't lend a hand, you must know that your lips are dead and ......your teeth are cold." ”

Sima Yi and Xu Shu showed slight disdain, and said in their hearts: My lord and Cao Cao are not lip-to-tooth relations, I think half a year ago, although Cao Cao and Yuan Shao did not conspire, they also attacked our lord together. My lord is resisting it here, if he can't resist it, now we people don't know where it is, and you Guo Fengxiao will definitely not appear here.

Gao Yuan was just silent and looked at Guo Jia quietly.

Guo Jia was a little apprehensive, the situation was stronger than people, even Guo Jia, in the face of Cao Cao's current predicament, on Gao Yuan's side, there was no good way to think of it. He could only make the decision for Cao Cao, so as to complete the alliance as soon as possible, and took a deep breath and said: "Yuan Shao's heart of disobedience has been revealed, and the imperial court intends to canonize General Gao as a general and crusade against the national thief Yuan Shao." ”

General! This is the pinnacle of martial arts. Like Zhao Yun and others, they couldn't help but be moved.

For Gao Yuan, he had already decided to reconcile with Cao Cao temporarily, lest Yuan Shao really become a big deal. Cao Cao has suffered repeated defeats, and since there is no money and food, it is good to have a justifiable appointment from the imperial court. "General! This official is not small! Gao Yuan smiled in his heart and agreed.

The two sides mainly agreed to remove the heavy troops on the border between the two sides and go all out to deal with the common enemy Yuan Shao.

Guo Jia didn't have any stay, and after completing his mission, he immediately said goodbye and left. Gao Yuan naturally wouldn't keep him.

When Guo Jia left, Zhang Liao got up and said: "My lord, Cao Mengde's defeat is beginning to appear, why don't you take the opportunity to attack Luoyang?" ”

When Gao Yuan hadn't answered yet, Xu Shu replied on his behalf: "Cao Cao will never give up the Guanzhong region with the three passes guarded, if the lord attacks Luoyang." Cao Cao will definitely resist to the death, and it is even possible to give up Yuzhou. Then, it is Yuan Shao who will benefit in the end. ”

Zhang Liao nodded constantly when he heard this, and said: "It seems that I am wrong, now that Yuan Shao's power is too strong, the fight of any other person is to create an opportunity for Yuan Shao to unify the north." ”

Gao Yuan got up and said: "Pass my order, 50,000 soldiers and horses along the Yellow River will be transferred to Shangdang County to station. In addition, the grain and grass materials from the local government treasury began to be transferred to Huguan City. ”

This was obviously to prepare for the attack on Jizhou, and when everyone got up, their fighting spirit was high.

Sima Yi reminded: "My lord, maybe we can wait for Cao Cao's troops and horses in the Jiangnan camp to be transferred, and then our army will be transferred." ”

Gao Yuan said with a smile: "Zhongda is right to be cautious, but our Cao Gong is suspicious, so it's better to give him a reassurance pill first!" ”

Xu Shu said from the side: "Lord, are you going to send troops to Jizhou?" ”

"No, no, no." Gao Yuan waved his hand, "Winter is not conducive to marching in the army. Transporting supplies first, and then using troops before the harvest in the summer of the following year. Now. Let's look at our Cao Gong first, how can we resist our Yuan Gong in Runan. ”

Everyone smiled heartily, and said that the timing of the lord's army was very ingenious, and when the Jizhou Great Plain was about to be harvested in summer, the grain would be harvested there when it was hit.

It is said that after Guo Jia left the state, he did not stop. Five days later, he returned to Runan County and brought the news of Gao Yuan's promise to form an alliance to Cao Cao.

Now this Runan city is in chaos. Smoke and fire everywhere came from Yuan's constant attacks.

Cao Cao's mood was also chaotic, and he was very angry all day. This came from Yuan Jun's pressure. When he learns that Takato has promised to form an alliance. He breathed a sigh of relief and said to everyone: "It seems that Gao Mengyan still has some brains and knows the importance of unanimously dealing with Yuan Shao now. ”

Like Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, Jia Xu, Cheng Yu and others are all in Runan. Cao Cao had already set Runan as the last line of defense in Yuzhou. Only by holding Runan can we maintain the stability of the region behind it and persist for a long time. If Runan is lost, it can only retreat to Guanzhong.

Cao Cao rarely said a good word from Gao Yuan. But his face quickly became gloomy, and he scolded again: "Gao Mengyan, this little rabbit cub." If it weren't for his official crossing to help Yuan Shao, the situation would not be the way it is now. ”

When everyone shook their heads and sighed, Guo Jia suddenly said: "Perhaps, what Gao Mengyan wants is such a result, otherwise, it is impossible for him to seize Yuan Shao's annexed state." ”

Cao Cao was shocked, "You mean, Gao Mengyan has calculated it since he was in my Xuchang at the beginning, how is this possible?" ”

Everyone was shocked, but if they thought about it carefully, every change in the situation was beneficial to Gao Yuan, and they had to believe it.

Is this still human? The calculation was so accurate that the actions of all forces were calculated.

Since Cao Cao and below, they all feel that Gao Yuan is no longer human. But that's the way it is, the loftiness that comes from later generations may not be as good as anything else, but if you say that you can grasp the pulse of the world, there is still no one who can stand out.

What followed was the news of Gao Yuan's withdrawal from the Yellow River. Cao Cao finally put his mind at ease, and he immediately ordered that Luoyang's 20,000 soldiers and horses be divided into two, one to be transferred to Guandu, and the other to Runan.

Gao Yuan was the first to withdraw the soldiers and horses of the confrontation, expressing enough goodwill. Cao Cao immediately sent an order to the imperial court, and immediately asked Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty to issue an edict to the world, and Jin Feng Gao Yuan was the general, the marquis of Shouyang, and the rebellion against the imperial court Yuan Shao.

As soon as the news came out, the world was shaken.

Cao Cao once again accused Yuan Shao of being a rebel, and Yuan Shao also tore his face, and once again condemned the world, accusing Cao Cao of controlling the Son of Heaven and being a true thief. And Gao Yuan is another national thief who is embarrassed.

Half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

In April 203 AD, Gao Yuan held a swearing-in meeting in Jinyang.

The five-zhang tall point general is on the platform, high and independent, and flags are planted all over him.

Zhang Liao.

Zhao Yun.

Xu Huang.

Forbidden.

At the end of the point, Gao Yuan began to read out the declaration of the expedition.

"Today's chaos and the people's livelihood is struggling, and it is the time for my generation to have aspiring men to contribute to the country and defend their homeland. Thanks to your efforts, we have put an end to the troubled times, but there are many more compatriots like us who are still living in dire straits. There are so many people who need us to rescue ......! ”

The instructor system set up by Gao Yuan made the army under his command a truly faithful and purposeful army. Faith comes from lofty thoughts, and the goal is to save the world.

"Defend the country and save the people!" Fifty thousand soldiers raised their arms and shouted, which was the war horse, and the neighing of Herod.

The military advisors Sima Yi, Xu Shu, and the generals were excited, looking up to the lofty.

After going through a lot of hardships, from not having a single soldier to the current 100,000 elite soldiers, Gao Yuan has completed the transformation.

Immediately, the red rabbit raised Fang Tian's painting halberd high, and the edge was dazzling. In the sound of rumbling horses' hooves, tens of thousands of troops, following in his footsteps, embarked on the journey. (To be continued......)
