Chapter 338: Between Stratagems

Xu Shu sighed and said: "This is Cao Cao's plan to sow discord!" Glancing at Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, Cao Cao knew very well that as long as Zilong was vigorously promoted, the two generals Yide and Yunchang would inevitably be suspicious and jealous, and thus clash with Zilong, and at this time, it was impossible for the two generals to listen to Zilong's words at all, and would only blindly treat him as a traitor! In this way, the two generals and Zilong will inevitably be at a standstill, and Cao Cao can take the opportunity to plot and pull General Zilong over! This is Cao Cao's wishful thinking! ”

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei didn't believe it.

Liu Bei hurriedly asked Xu Shu: "Yuan Zhi, why does Cao Cao want to be like this?" I can't threaten him now! ”

Xu Shu said: "Don't underestimate yourself too much, although the lord has no territory and no army, but he is just a dragon trapped in the shallows!" Once the lord gets the space to exert himself, it will inevitably soar into the sky and become a blockbuster! Cao Cao understood this very well, so he wanted to weaken the strength in the hands of the lord as much as possible when he was still in his fledgling! ……”

Zhang Fei raised his eyebrows and scolded angrily: "Cao thief is really hateful, I'll kill him!" As he spoke, he actually walked outside.

Guan Yu hurriedly grabbed him, and shouted angrily: "The eldest brother is here, the third brother should not act recklessly!" Zhang Fei stopped, and he was so angry that he squirted!

Xu Shu continued: "Cao Cao has another purpose for doing this, he loves talent, the two generals and Zilong are rare tiger generals in the world, Cao Cao will naturally try his best to bring the three generals into his account!" ”

Guan Yu snorted coldly and said contemptuously: "He's dreaming!" ”

Liu Bei frowned and said, "According to what Yuanzhi meant, Zilong did not betray?" ”

Xu Shu nodded, "That's for sure!" ”

Guan Yu asked unhappily: "If he didn't betray, why didn't he come back to see the eldest brother and go to Dongjun to take office?" Zhang Fei echoed: "That's it! He is clearly weak-hearted! ”

Xu Shu sighed, "Two generals, this kind of thinking of yours is what Cao Cao wants." There are many ways to say goodbye to Zilong without saying goodbye, and the easiest way is to say to Zilong: The two generals have a deep misunderstanding of you, in order to avoid further plans for the relationship, please ask General Zilong to go to Dongjun to take office first, and after things are calmer, Zilong will come back and explain to the two generals. As long as Cao Cao said such a thing, General Zilong would definitely believe it! ”

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were silent.

Liu Bei blamed the two brothers in his heart, but he didn't say anything on his lips.

Xu Shu hugged his fists at Liu Bei and said: "My lord, the top priority now is to repair a letter immediately, and then send a reliable confidant to Dongjun to hand it over to Zilong, so as to appease Zilong's heart!" Liu Bei nodded.

Xu Shu smiled and said: "The lord doesn't have to worry too much, in fact, this matter is not necessarily a bad thing!" Zilong's appointment as the Taishou of Dongjun may be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us! Liu Bei didn't know what to do.

Xu Shu's eyes lit up and said: "Dongjun is a rich county, with fertile land and a large population, and this place can be used as a foundation. ”

At this point, the three people present understood.

Xu Shu advised: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us, we must be cautious!" Don't let Cao Cao notice that we are repairing our relationship with Zilong, we must let Cao Cao see that our relationship with Zilong is getting worse and worse! ”

Liu Bei frowned and asked, "Wouldn't that be able to repair Zilong's book?" In this way, wouldn't Zilong misunderstand me? ”

Xu Shu said: "Of course, the letter must be written, otherwise the lack of coordination between the two sides will not become a big deal!" However, the process of sending the letter must be cautious, and it must not be discovered by Cao Cao, otherwise it will be a failure! After a pause, he frowned and said, "At this moment, Cao Cao should be monitoring our every move, and we should not make any moves for the time being." Liu Bei nodded.

Zhang Fei said angrily: "Military advisor, you said so many things, don't you think that my second brother and I have wronged Zhao Yun?" Why don't you think about it the other way around, what if Zhao Yun really betrayed? ”

Guan Yu echoed: "The third brother is right. Although there is some truth in what the military advisor said, it is all speculation, and the real situation is not necessarily the case! If Zhao Yun really betrayed, but we were still sitting in the dream of seizing Dongjun, wouldn't we all fall into Cao Cao's trap? In that case, all of us will be doomed! ”

Zhang Fei Guan Yu's words made Liu Bei couldn't help but shake his confidence.

Xu Shu said categorically: "I dare to guarantee Zilong with the head of the head of the emperor that Zilong will never betray!" ”

Zhang Fei was not convinced and snorted.

Liu Bei pondered for a moment and decisively said, "Just do what the military advisor wants." ”

……

Guo Jia, who was dressed in an official robe, came to the study of the Prime Minister's Mansion, saw Cao Cao in civilian clothes, and saluted with his fists: "Prime Minister." ”

Cao Cao motioned for Guo Jia to sit down. Guo Jia walked to a wooden pier on the left and sat down.

Cao Cao smiled and said to Guo Jia: "Xu Shu is here." ”

Guo Jia smiled and said: "Xu Shuzhi is as deep as the sea, he must have seen our plan!" We're ready for the second step! ”

Cao Cao said with some concern: "If they really let them get in touch with Zilong, I'm afraid it won't be our control!" ”

Guo Jia smiled and said: "The matter of passing letters with General Zilong is very important, there are not many trustworthy people around Liu Bei, Guan Zhang is a military general, and the entry and exit are too conspicuous, Liu Bei will definitely not let them send the letter, besides, the two have fallen out with Zilong, and Liu Bei will not rest assured that they will send the letter." Xu Shu is a very good candidate, but Liu Bei is extremely lacking in resourceful strategists around him, only this Xu Shu, so it is impossible for Liu Bei to let him deliver the letter. Mi Zhu, Sun Gan and others have to deal with things around Liu Bei, and there are many people who know these two people, so Liu Bei will definitely not send them. In addition to the above people, there is only one person Liu Bei can choose, Mi Fang. ”

Cao Cao nodded, "Yes, that's true." ”

Guo Jia smiled and hugged his fists and said, "I have already arranged it, and everything is under control." ”

Cao Cao laughed, "I have filial piety, and no matter how difficult things are, they can be solved lightly." Guo Jia smiled.

That night, Mi Fang was invited to Guo Jia's mansion for a banquet. The maidservants served food and drink, and then they all withdrew. In the entire back hall, only Guo Jia and Mi Fang were left. Guo Jia picked up the wine glass and smiled: "General Mi Fang, I toast you." ”

Mi Fang hurriedly picked up the wine glass, "Don't dare, how dare you be a villain!" ”

Guo Jia smiled slightly, raised his head and dried up a glass of wine. Mi Fang hurriedly drank a glass of wine.

Guo Jia put down the wine glass and said to Mi Fang: "Your Mi family, originally a big family in Xuzhou, but now you are displaced and have no fixed place, which is really emotional!" ”

Guo Jia's words immediately resonated with Mi Fang, Mi Fang sighed, and said helplessly: "With the wrong lord, what can I do?" ”
