Cao Cao did not bring a strategist with him on this expedition, so that now there is no one who wants to consult with him.

The sky had already dawned, and although Cao Cao hadn't slept all night, he didn't even feel sleepy at this time.

Cao Cao originally wanted to send troops to pursue Liu Bei, but firstly, Koji Yi was guarding the side, and secondly, Emperor Xian and hundreds of officials were in Liu Bei's army.

Cao Cao sighed, although he was extremely reluctant, he could only admit that the expedition was a complete failure.

And the reason for the failure was Koji Yi, Cao Cao focused all his attention on Liu Bei, thus ignoring Koji Yi.

It is precisely because of such negligence that it directly leads to the final failure.

Thinking of Ko Yi, Cao Cao suddenly burst out laughing, and said to himself: "This time is considered a victory, the two of us will come to Japan for a long time, and we will pay attention to it slowly!" ”

After that, he ordered the village to retreat.

It's not terrible to lose once, but it's okay to win it back next time.

Cao Cao retreated, and he waited for half a day for fear that Cao Cao would be deceitful, until the scout sent back the news that Cao Cao went all the way to Juancheng, and then led the troops back to Beihai.

Although he did not grab the emperor this time, Lu Yi was not discouraged in the slightest, but was in a happy mood and full of confidence.

When he came, there were only three generals, Tai Shici, Pan Zhang, and Fan Fang, but at this time, there were more Zhao Yun, Xu Huang and Xia Houlan in the team.

One of the three is the five tiger generals of Shu Han in history, and the other is the five good generals of Cao Wei, all of whom are generals.

Although Xia Houlan's achievements in history are not as good as Zhao Yun and Xu Huang, he is also a qualified general.

Through contact with Liyi, he found that Xiahou Lan was smart, sleek and careful, and always completed the things he explained successfully, especially good at handling some miscellaneous matters.

If you cultivate it well, you may be able to use it well in the future.

Although he gave the emperor to Liu Bei, he also succeeded in turning Liu Bei into the target of the public.

With Liu Bei's current strength, it can't be compared with Cao Cao in history at all.

Although Liu Bei's prestige can be greatly improved in a short period of time, how can those civil and military ministers who travel with Emperor Xian be good with each other?

You don't see Cao Cao in history, how was he tortured by these so-called loyal ministers?

If it weren't for Cao Cao's strength being strong enough and iron-blooded, how could he suppress these ministers, and what Liu Bei lacked was not only strength, but also Cao Cao's iron-blooded ruthlessness.

This is also the reason why Guo Jia did not stop Lu Yi from giving up his dedication to the emperor.

Cao Cao is fighting with Liu Bei for Yanzhou, but now that Liu Bei has the emperor, Cao Cao has a mouse taboo, even if he wants to attack, he has to think twice.

As a result, Cao Cao's development momentum is bound to slow down, and Liu Bei is difficult to do because he is constrained by hundreds of officials, and he may be forced to abandon the emperor again in the end.

Giving the emperor to Liu Bei seems to have a hundred benefits and no harm at this time.

In Beihai, when Koji Yi led his troops back, Cheng Gongying Cui Lin and other civil and military officers went out of the city for ten miles to greet them.

Koji Yi had already sent someone back to deliver the message, briefly explaining the ins and outs of the whole matter, so everyone also knew about the emperor's trip to Puyang.

Under the welcome of a group of civil and military personnel and the people in the city, Koji Yi led the men and horses back to the mansion.

Above the lobby, Ko Yi sat on the main seat, Cheng Gongying, Guo Jia, Cui Lin and other civil officials sat on the left side below, and Tai Shici, Pan Zhang, Zhao Yun and other military generals sat on the right side.

Lu Yi first introduced Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, Xia Houlan, and then told everyone about Luoyang in detail.

After everyone discussed, Koji Yi ordered everyone to go down to rest and reunite for the evening banquet, leaving only Cheng Gongying, Guo Jia and Cui Lin to discuss.

Going out to triumph, coupled with the addition of new people to join, how can there be no banquet, Cui Lin has already ordered people to prepare properly, just wait for the banquet to be held in the evening.

As for the residence of Zhao Yun and the others, Cui Lin had already arranged it, so there was no need for Koji Yi to bother.

After everyone left, Lu Yi asked Cui Lin first: "I didn't see Guan Hai and Gongyou just now, have the two returned yet?" ”

Before, Lu Yi first sent Guan Hai to say that He Yi and He Man had descended, and then sent Sun Qian to appease Zang Ba, and he should return when the time was almost over.

Cui Lin replied: "Gongyou once sent someone to deliver a message, saying that everything is going well, and I think I can return in a few days."

However, Guan Cheng has not heard from him since he left, and now it is unknown what the situation is! ”

After hearing this, Lu Yi nodded and said: "The land of Ru Ying is quite a long way, and it is understandable that Guan Hai is alone and has no letter to send back, if it is calculated according to the distance, the day of return is not far away!" ”

Ko Yi has a lot of trust in Guan Hai's ability, how can a person who can lead tens of thousands of yellow turbans to travel to various states be so easy to have an accident.

As for Guan Hai's loyalty, there is no need to worry, if Guan Hai really has the heart to deviate, with his trust in him, there is no need to wait until now.

Lu Yi turned his head to look at Cheng Gongying and Guo Jia, and asked, "Now that Liu Bei welcomes the Son of Heaven into Puyang and sits in the name of the emperor's uncle, his prestige will inevitably rise in a short period of time."

Cao Cao is also bound to win Yanzhou, although this defeat will not give up.

In the future, there will be a struggle between the two, so there will be no time to care.

I just wonder how we will make the next few moments? ”

Cheng Gongying and Guo Jia glanced at each other, looked at each other and smiled, obviously the two had communicated privately on this issue.

I only heard Cheng Gongying say: "As early as before this expedition, I and Fengxiao have discussed this matter, although it is like today's trip to Puyang, but it has no impact on the overall situation, so everything is as before."

Now the lord is the pastor of Qingzhou, but Qingzhou is not all under the control of the lord, and this matter is not conducive to the prestige of the lord and needs to be resolved. ”

Cheng Gongying glanced at Guo Jia after speaking, and signaled that he would talk about the specific arrangements next.

Guo Jia nodded, and then continued with Cheng Gongying's words: "Most of Qingzhou is owned by the lord today, but Tian Kai retreated to Le'an, and Yuan Tan stuck to Tatecheng, both of which are in Qingzhou.

If they rashly attack the two, Gongsun Chan and Yuan Shao will inevitably put aside the dispute for the time being, and instead form an alliance to attack Qingzhou, which is not good for our army.

Therefore, he first tried to intensify the contradiction between the two and induced Yuan Shao to send troops to attack Gongsun Zhan, with Gongsun Zhan's current strength, it would be difficult to stop Yuan Shao's army, and when he was defeated and retreated, he would inevitably ask the lord for help.

At this time, the lord can force him to back down on the condition of being happy, and Gongsun Chan will inevitably agree to take care of the overall situation.

Then the lord can send a general to take advantage of the situation to attack the city to kill Yuan Tan, and then send a large army to feint to attack Guangzong, making a trend of attacking Yecheng.

Yuan Shao was worried that Yecheng would lose and would inevitably retreat, so that the entire Qingzhou would be owned by the lord, and the danger of Gongsun Zan could also be resolved, so that he could continue to contain Yuan Shao! ”

After listening to the fierce slap of the case, Ko Yi stroked his palms and laughed: "I have two military advisors to give advice, why worry about the big thing!" ”

Cheng Gongying and Guo Jia heard Ko Yi's praise, and the smiles on their faces were even bigger, as strategists, the plan they set up can be adopted by the lord, this is the happiest thing!
