But I have already done it, and I didn't persuade it because I was helpless at the time, so what do I persuade now?

But now he wants to use precious grain to feed hundreds of thousands of foreign troops, and continue to fight as trapped beasts, Xun Yu is resolutely opposed, which has broken through his bottom line.

Xun Yu Xun You and others opposed the nourishment of the alien race, and Chen Qun and others were determined to resist the north with the help of the alien race, and the two sides were deadlocked, Cao Cao finally announced that he would first issue a retreat order to Cao Zhang, and the matter of the alien race would be discussed tomorrow.

Sima Yi and a group of civil officials each withdrew, and Guo Jia also withdrew, but came to Cao Cao's study near night.

Cao Cao was half-lying on the bed, shaking his head slightly with the sound of Lingju's piano, Guo Jia walked in, and Cao Cao's eyes didn't open and said, "Fengxiao is here." ”

"Guo Jia greets the lord."

"You don't have to worship, you won't be your lord in the future." Cao Cao said calmly, Guo Jia raised his head and looked at Cao Cao, and after a few seconds, said in the same calm voice: "The lord has decided?" ”

Cao Cao took out a letter from under his pillow and handed it to Guo Jia: "Look, this is a letter from my daughter." ”

"Third Miss?" Guo Jia took it carefully, was slightly shocked after reading the letter, frowned and said to Cao Cao: "Does the lord think that the third lady can persuade Liu Zhang?" According to my understanding of Liu Zhang, Liu Zhang will not leave hidden dangers for himself. ”

"It doesn't matter." Cao Cao stretched his waist and changed to a comfortable position to lie down: "Now our army is at the end of the road, and today the court has been discussing for a long time, thinking about how to defend the Sichuan army and attack, no one dares to think about it."

Even if you use Taihang Mountain and other races to block the Sichuan army? I, Cao Cao, don't want to divide one side, I don't want to divide a piece of territory into the Han Dynasty and claim hegemony, that's meaningless.

There is no hope. Defend yourself. Most of them can't be saved. Why bother? ”

Cao Cao smiled and said: "I already said last time, we will be the last stumbling block for the Sichuan army, although this time the battle of Xiahetao was lost inexplicably, isn't this the will of heaven?"

I, Cao Cao, don't want to be a stumbling block, I don't want to split the Han Dynasty, if I am destined to be unable to unify, then give the Sichuan army a unification, Fengxiao. I really decided to surrender. ”

Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia, his face was unusually calm, and even with some relieved smiles.

Guo Jia was silent, he knew that Cao Cao, if there was still hope and the possibility of dominating the world, Cao Cao would not give up, even if he thought Liu Zhang was right, he would not give up.

But now, the Sichuan army does not care about logistics. Military power, internal unity. The geographical offensive and defensive situation has completely defeated the Cao army, and the Cao army can only defend, or it still has to rely on foreign races to defend.

Where is the hope of dominating the world?

It is not easy for a king to persist in fighting, but Guo Jia knows that it is even more difficult for Cao Cao to surrender when he knows that nothing can be done.

Although Cao Cao didn't say it, Guo Jia knew that the strategy of nourishing the alien race to defend the north must have made Cao Cao feel ashamed.

Before Dong Zhuo's rebellion, Cao Cao never thought that he would be able to win the Han Dynasty, and what he was thinking about was to attack foreign races and leave Wei Qinghuo with the reputation of going sick.

Even if he was at the pinnacle of power, Guo Jia knew that Cao Cao had never thought about shining the Han Dynasty one day.

What is the difference between such a king asking him to nourish the alien race and serve as a northern barrier and killing him?

"The lord has thought about it, if Liu Zhang's eyes can't rub sand, will the lord's heirs still have those loyal civil and military ends?" Guo Jiadao.

"Since it is my Cao Cao's son, then let it be fate, as for those civil and military forces, when the time comes, I will hand over all the military power and leave nothing, those civil and military forces have no threat to the Sichuan army.

If this is the case, Liu Zhang can't control these civil and military forces, and he still has to rely on killing to solve it, then my Cao Cao can be regarded as blind. ”

Guo Jia breathed a long sigh of relief, knowing that Cao Cao had made up his mind, at this moment Guo Jia seemed to feel relieved, because he was loyal to Cao Cao, even if he didn't want to fight with the Sichuan army at all, he still tried his best to think about how to deal with the Sichuan army.

Now, I am finally relieved, no matter what happens to me in the Sichuan army at that time, at least I have not reached the last step of stubbornly resisting the New Deal.

"What is the lord going to do?" Guo Jia asked.

"It's a mess, and I can't figure out where to start." Cao Cao knocked on his forehead and said to Guo Jia: "So I'm waiting for you here, you give me an idea." ”

Guo Jia frowned and thought for a while: "The lord wants to belong to Liu Zhang, last time he said that he would kill Sima Yi Chen Qun and other officials of the clan, and the people of the clan will also not agree to the lord to join the Sichuan army."

If the lord is attached to the Sichuan army, this is a betrayal in the eyes of the clan, not only betraying their original funding, but also pushing them into the abyss.

In other words, if the lord chooses to be attached, not only will the people of the clan not be attached, but they will also list the lord as a mortal enemy.

In other words, if the lord wants to kill them, they will also jump over the wall in a hurry, and they will never die.

Therefore, the best way is to notify the Sichuan army while designing to capture and kill all the officials of the clan. ”

"How do you catch it all in one go?" Cao Cao asked.

"The decision to nourish the alien race, the civil officials of the clan will definitely not drag it off, because if it is delayed for a day, Xianbei Wuhuan will be cut off for a day, which is even more dangerous, and the clan will definitely strive to release food to the alien race in order to protect themselves.

If the matter of foreign races is discussed again tomorrow, as long as the lord resolutely opposes the release of grain to foreign races, the world will definitely be anxious, what will happen if he is anxious? It must be forced to the palace. ”

"And then you can catch them all?"

"That's right."

Cao Cao nodded slightly: "Okay, immediately recruit Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Tian Yu, and come." ”

"Never." Guo Jia hurriedly waved his hand: "Lord, Sima Yi is as cunning as a fox, this person is extremely scheming, and he is very sensitive to some slight changes.

If we suddenly transfer generals, Sima Yi will inevitably perceive it, don't forget that most of our current army is still a clan army, and then it will be troublesome. ”

"If Zhang Liao, Xu Huang and others are not transferred, Xun Yu and Xun Yu and others cannot be transferred, then who else can be up to the task?"

Now Cao Ying, the family family controls most of the sky, and Cao Cao dares to rest assured that only Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Xiahou Yuan and other generals, Xun Yu, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and other old ministers.

But these loyal people, all of whom are in high positions, have long been branded as Cao Cao's henchmen, these people are not in tune, and Cao Cao can't think of anyone else who can be adjusted.

"Young boy." Guo Jia slowly said three words.

"Cao Chong?" Cao Cao exclaimed: "He is only eleven years old." ”

Guo Jia said: "Lord, the young son's intelligence is far beyond the imagination of outsiders, and now those civil and military officials only think that the young son is a little smart, but with Guo Jia's observation, the young son's leadership and decision-making are definitely not inferior to the world's first-class strategists, and the marching array is not inferior to Guo Jia."

The most important thing is that the young son is not valued by outsiders, and the lord is often summoned and will not be noticed.

As long as we secretly transfer Zhang Liaoxu Huang's soldiers and horses into the city through special channels such as procurement and transportation, and hand them over to the young prince to command, Zhang Liao and Xu Huang and the others are still as usual.

When the young prince launches, it will be unexpected by the people of the world. ”

"Chong'er is too young, can those generals be convinced?"

Guo Jiadao: "This is a problem, but Zhang Liao and Xu Huang are all veterans of our army, loyal, as long as Zhang Liao and Xu Huang explain, they will know the proportions, and as long as the army comes out, the overall situation will be decided."

When all the Shi clan is captured, the third prince Cao Zhang should also return to Yecheng with the army, and when the time comes, the Sichuan army in the land of Heluo will attack the Shi army on the front line of the Yellow River in the north and south, and the Shi army can be completely wiped out.

Now that the wealth of the major families has been almost emptied, and the army is gone, what ability does the family still have to resist? The whole of Hebei will be at the feet of the Sichuan army, and the Sichuan army should dominate the world, right? ”

Cao Cao thought about it for a long time and nodded: "Just do it." ”

Guo Jia was about to go out, but Cao Cao stopped and said, "Fengxiao, wait a minute." He took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Guo Jia: "You take this." ”

Guo Jia took the letter and glanced at it, it turned out to be written to Liu Zhang, and asked suspiciously: "Lord, what is this?" ”

Cao Cao sighed: "I also thought of it, although there are three girls who plead, but Liu Zhang, a person who values the great cause more than his own life, will not leave me."

If I die one day and am still killed by Liu Zhang, my sons, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren and other generals will definitely not give up, and Xun Yu and Xun You will also have a grudge against the Sichuan army.

When the time comes, if it becomes the climate, won't it make the Han world even more chaotic?

If it can't become a climate, forget about my sons, you and Zhang Liao, these civil and military people, are all talented people, and people who are useful to the Han Dynasty, wouldn't it be a pity to die like this?

Because of the death of Cao Cao, the world has been chaotic, and a large number of loyal civil and military officers have died, how can I be worthy of you and the Han? ”

Guo Jia slowly clenched the letterhead.

Cao Cao seemed to be completely relaxed: "I said in this letter, I, Cao Cao, had already expected that day, and Liu Zhang killed me, not ruthlessly and unjustly, but affectionate and righteous to the Han Dynasty, starting from the overall situation."

No one, including the three girls, can not be embarrassed because of this, otherwise they will not only be sorry for me Cao Cao, but they will also be disloyal to the Han Dynasty.

You hide this letter and publish it after I die, I hope that this letter will make the civil and military loyal to me Cao Cao less angry, and let Liu Zhang be restrained and murderous. ”

"Lord......" Guo Jia suddenly felt his voice tremble, how many low-level sufferings he had tasted in more than 30 years, how many exclusions and grievances he had suffered, and how many tears he had not shed after many inner struggles, as if he was trying to rush out of his eyes.

restrained for a long time, the tears did not stay in the end, the tears at this time were a blasphemy against an ending hero, Guo Jia said in a deep voice: "I hope the third lady can persuade Liu Zhang." ”

Guo Jia clenched the letter paper and walked out of the palace, Cao Cao sighed, and sat next to Lingju's piano platform as if he had completely lost his strength, looking at the scenery of the garden outside the door.

"Lingju, you know what? Before I started the army, the famous Sheren Xu Shao once commented on me, a capable minister who rules the world, and a traitor in troubled times.

Now I can't do this troubled world, in fact, I really want to be a capable minister who rules the world. (To be continued......)
