Xu Du Sikong Mansion, the atmosphere in the meeting hall was extremely solemn, Cao Cao looked at the civil and military below, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, he put a copy of the case on the table, and muttered: "Summoning you to come, in order to discuss how our army should develop next, about this, yesterday Xun Yu put forward a certain opinion, and the situation in Hanzhong is not optimistic, according to the Tanma Fei report, Lu Bu in early June this year, the army was divided into three ways to attack Hanzhong, and now it has even Kebaocheng, Xiegu, Yangping Pass, what do you think, all talk about it!" ”

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar in the entire conference hall, Lu Bu now has the four counties of Xiliang, with 100,000 male soldiers, if he is allowed to capture Hanzhong again, it will be like a tiger with wings, and furthermore, Lu Bu's purpose of attacking Hanzhong is obvious, he is aiming at Xichuan, Xichuan and Hanzhong are dead lips and teeth, and if Hanzhong is lost, Xichuan will not be guaranteed.

What's even more strange is that in the face of this meat-cutting and bone-like blow, Zhang Lu, the general of Taishou Hanzhong and Zhennan, was still stationed in Nancheng, and in addition to letting the local garrison go to defend, he did not personally lead the army to meet the enemy; And Liu Yan even stayed out of this matter, then Hanzhong is the gateway to Xichuan, if Lu Bu is allowed to win Hanzhong, his Xichuan can still be saved.

There must be demons when things are abnormal, but where the demons are, how to react, and what the consequences are, which makes Cao Cao's strategists very sad and puzzled.

For a while, the chamber was silent, and everyone was silent.

At this time, Guo Jia stood up.

As one of the two masterminds under Cao Cao's account, he must first stand up and make a statement: "Liu Yan and Zhang Lu, two foolish worms, are basically self-destroying the Great Wall. ”

Guo Jia stood in the conference hall, scolding Liu Yan and Zhang Lu without hesitation, and the strategists around him, except for Xun Yu and Xun You, silently dodged to both sides. Lest he be hurt by the edge of this strategist, and even the man in charge of the prison hid far away, pretending not to hear. If they usually saw Guo Jia, they would talk to him with a smile, but at this time, Guo Jia was angry, and everyone didn't dare to touch his edge. You must know that Guo Jia usually doesn't get angry very much, unless he encounters any special circumstances.

At this time, Xun Yu walked through the crowd, quietly pulled Guo Jia's sleeve, and chuckled: "Fengxiao, don't be impatient, it's not that simple here!" ”

"Isn't it clear enough? This is a cocoon! Guo Jia swept away his previous uninhibited style and shook his beard angrily. Pointing at the west and scolding angrily: "Those two wastes, one only knows how to cultivate immortals and refine pills, and the other only knows how to occupy an area as the king, if Lu Bu is allowed to capture Xichuan and Hanzhong, he will definitely become the great enemy of the lord, and Lu Bu's danger level even exceeds that of Yuan Shao!" ”

"No one expected that Lu Bu would send troops at this time, I thought he would attack Xichuan, but I didn't expect it to be Hanzhong!" Xun Yu also shook his head helplessly, they were still counting on waiting for Liu Yan to die. Let Zhang Lu go to be the Yizhou assassin to balance Lu Bu, he never expected that Lu Bu would send troops in advance, and he still poured out of the nest, is he so relieved that Ma Teng can't succeed?

At this time, Xun You also stood up and said to the two: "We are no strangers to Zhongde. What he is best at is to put it to death and come back to life, and it is not surprising that he can say that he can move Lu Bu to attack Hanzhong! ”

"Could there be something that prompted Lu Bu to send troops ahead of schedule?" Dong Zhao touched his chin, and felt more and more that things were a little weird, Lu Bu only went west to conquer the Qiang tribe last year. It's only been a year since he sent troops to attack Hanzhong, Hanzhong is so steep, he is not very sure, who dares to be arrogant, there must be something that can make him win, otherwise he would not attack Hanzhong in such a hurry.

Guo Jia lowered his head and thought for a while, as if he was considering the possibility in Dong Zhao's words, Cao Cao also thought about it a little, and then looked at Guo Jia for a long time without reacting, he added: "Since ancient times, whether it is entering Shu or leaving Shu, except for the Qishan area, only Jiameng Pass remains!" ”

This sentence is quite explicit, but the meaning is a little obscure, Guo Jia exhaled lightly, seemed to be smiling, and slapped his palm slightly: "Lord, maybe Lu Bu already has a way to attack Jiameng Pass, so he hurriedly attacked Hanzhong, it seems that this Hanzhong and Xichuan are over!" ”

Lu Bu, he has become a big trouble in the hearts of Cao Cao and his advisers, they are paying attention to his movements all the time, trying every means to stifle his development, but the emperor is far away, and now the Han is fighting everywhere, the north is undecided, and there are Liu Bei and Yuan Shu in the south, Cao Cao has no energy to deal with him.

"We still know too little about Lu Bu, we always thought that he only had Chen Gong, Cheng Yu, and Jia Xu under his account, but now why did a Fa Zheng suddenly appear, who is this Fa Zheng?"

Cao Cao once again took a cue of the battle report of Hanzhong, and saw the letter describing that Fa Zheng broke 100,000 with 30,000 and annihilated the Hanzhong army, which immediately shocked him, and immediately raised his head to ask everyone, although the letter also mentioned that Xu Shu broke the Hanzhong army in the valley, but it was defeated when the forces of the two sides were equal, so Cao Cao did not feel strange, so he only asked Fa Zheng alone.

"What's wrong with Fazheng?"

Guo Jia and the others had not read the battle report, and when they heard Cao Cao ask about Fazheng, they couldn't help but ask curiously.

Cao Cao raised the battle report in his hand and said: "This method is in the Neishui area, with 30,000 Xiliang troops to annihilate 100,000 Hanzhong troops, including Zhang Lu's eldest son Zhang Fu also died in this battle!" ”

Cao Cao's words once again caused an uproar in the council room, breaking 100,000 with 30,000, that is not something ordinary people can do, it seems that this Fazheng is really not simple, but why haven't I heard of his name before, even if people like this can't be famous, but at least they will be paid attention to, like Cao Cao, when he was young, he had the title of a capable minister who governed the world and a traitor in troubled times.

Guo Jia frowned: "I've heard of him, this Fazheng, filial piety, Fufeng Yiren, his ancestor is the King of Qi, and he is still a descendant of the royal family, I didn't expect him to also cast under Lu Bu's account!" ”

"How's this guy?"

"I don't know, I haven't been in contact, but with the battle of the internal water, it is enough to prove that he is not an ordinary person!"

Guo Jia had heard of Fa Zheng, but he had never seen it, he only heard of his name, but he could annihilate 100,000 with 30,000, which is enough to prove that Fa Zheng is not an ordinary person, at least a qualified strategist.

Xun Yu said: "Lord, since we can't contain Lu Bu, then let's concentrate on dealing with Yuan Shao and Liu Bei, and when the north is stabilized, let's fight with Lu Bu again!" ”

Cao Cao and Yuan Shao will have a battle sooner or later, and now they can take advantage of Yuan Shao's time to clean up Gongsun Zhan, and first solve Liu Bei and Yuan Shu in the south, otherwise when Yuan Shao defeats Gongsun Zhan, let him breathe, and then Cao Cao will be attacked on his back.

Guo Jia nodded at Cao Cao, expressing his agreement with Xun Yu's opinion, now they really can't focus on Lu Bu's body, and now the methods have been exhausted, but the sky is high and the emperor is far away, even if Cao Cao wants to clean him up, he can't do it, it is better to solve the crisis in front of him first, wait for the recovery of the north, and then compete with Lu Bu, whether it is a mule or a horse, and then pull it out and know when the time comes.

At this time, another guard outside the house suddenly came to report: "Lord Qiqi, General Xiahou Yuan has returned and is waiting under the corridor!" ”

As early as when Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou, he left Xiahou Yuan to garrison Xiapi, and now Xiahou Yuan came from Xuzhou, there must have been something wrong in Xuzhou.

After a while, Xiahou Yuan was wearing light armor, sweating profusely, there was still dust on his shoulders and battle robes, and he walked with a puff of wind and dust.

"Tao Qian is dead, Liu Bei has Xuzhou!" , Xiahou Yuan first bowed to Cao Cao, and then said coldly, it can be said that he went straight to the point.

Cao Cao was originally upset about Lu Bu's affairs, and when he heard that Liu Bei occupied Xuzhou, he couldn't help but scold angrily: "My father's revenge has not been avenged, he Liu Bei did not spend half an arrow, sitting in Xuzhou, I must kill Liu Bei first, dig Tao Qian's tomb, kill his corpse, and snow my father's resentment!" ”

After hearing this, most of the generals were gearing up and preparing to do a big job, especially Xu Chu and Dian Wei, since they had a fight with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei last time, they wanted to fight with them again all the time.

Guo Jia and Xun Yu glanced at each other, and neither of them objected, after all, they are now strong and strong, with sufficient food and grass, while Liu Bei's army is all stragglers, not to be afraid, and can be destroyed with a snap of a finger.

Just when Cao Cao was preparing to raise troops to fight against Liu Bei, news suddenly came from Runan, saying that it was Huainan Yuan Shu who usurped the emperor, and once the news spread, the world was shaken.

However, it is said that after the defeat of Yuan Shu in the Tiger Prison Pass, with the support of the old guys in Runan, he rose again in Huainan, and then occupied Yangzhou, Yuzhou and Nanyang, with a lot of grain and a wide range of grain, and the jade seal given to him by Sun Ce, so he thought about arrogating the emperor and saying what to say to Tu Gao, and then regardless of the opposition of the strategists, he brazenly called the emperor, built the Zhongshi, established the Taiwan Province and other officials, took the dragon and phoenix, sacrificed to the northern suburbs of Shouchun, set up his wife as the queen, and his son as the East Palace, and then sent a document to announce the world, so that the princes of the world came to the court to congratulate.

Xun Yu looked at the text sent by Yuan Shu, and almost couldn't hold back his laughter: "Does he want to be the emperor and go crazy, this is self-defeating!" ”

Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "I serve the Son of Heaven to order the princes, occupy the righteousness, and now Yuan Shu is arrogant and the emperor, I should send troops to fight, this matter of Xuzhou, can only be put aside for the time being!" ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "I have a plan, which can not only annihilate Yuan Shu, but also allow the lord to sit in Xuzhou!" ”

Cao Cao was shocked and hurriedly asked: "At this time, don't babble, come and tell me!" ”

Guo Jia clasped his hands and said casually: "Didn't he Liu Bei say that he was the head of the imperial family?" Why don't the lord let him ask Yuan Shu in the name of the imperial court, and when it is time for our class teacher, we can take the opportunity to detain him and let him follow us into the court to meet the Son of Heaven, as for Yuan Shu, we might as well ...... like this!
