"Xu Cheqi, what are you going to do?" Cao Zhen reluctantly raised his head and said with a frown.

At this moment, I feel that I am going to be very far away from home, and I can't come back for a good life for many years, and if I go to Bingzhou and is under Xu Zhen, life will definitely be difficult.

Looking at Xu Zhen now, it doesn't look like he's joking, I'm afraid he really wants to take him to Youzhou.

How can I not be in a hurry, I also do what I am told.

Why don't you take Cao Ren to Youzhou?!

I'm a bully, right?

"Of course, don't do anything, take you to the outside world."

Xu Zhen said with a straight expression.

……

November.

Three messages were sent to Xiangyang.

One is that Xu Zhen arrived in Xudu, recruited 20,000 recruits from Jiujiang, Chenliu and Lujiang respectively, and was willing to follow him to the border land.

There are still 10,000 people who don't want to go, so unfortunately they can't enter the camp.

The other two people reported that Cao Zhen was leading some recruits and was still a captain; and that the Qingzhou Secret Order has been reached.

At the same time, it was not long before another news was sent to the Cai Mansion.

Mrs. Cai and Liu Cong, when they were on the boat, were blown by a boulder at the bottom of the boat in the center of the river, and the wind and waves swept over, and they could not find the location of their bodies, and floated to the waters outside Qingzhou.

If you look for it, you will definitely not find it, because what is outside Qingzhou is not called a river, it has to be called a sea.

Cai Mao cried all night, and continued to lead the troops diligently the next day, not daring to act willfully again.

He no longer formed a party with the rest of the scholars in the territory for personal gain, but he was loyal to the Cao family, and never did anything that disgusted Cao Cao.

And the war stopped, and it was not good to continue the offensive for the time being, so there was not much to do, Cao Cao opened the first bag left by Xu Zhen at this time.

Hold your troops and accumulate a wide range of armaments.

"Well," Cao Cao nodded thoughtfully, "It seems that Bowen has indeed understood the situation here, and he must not act rashly, knowing that even if he attacks, it will be difficult to achieve anything." ”

"If you don't move your troops, you can accumulate a lot of armaments, and you can run and fight again for several years, which is to persuade me not to be in a hurry."

Cao Cao sighed deeply, and there was a sigh in his tone, "Speaking of which, I'm a little ashamed, even if I only decided after I lost." ”

"It's normal," Guo Jia bowed his hand slightly, "Bowen is just judging, it's just right, even if he is here, he has to fight once to be sure of his layout." ”

"yes, I know."

Cao Cao nodded immediately, he liked to listen to this, even if Xu Bowen came in person, he would not be able to judge the situation immediately.

"It's just that no one would have imagined that Bowen would raise another 20,000 soldiers and horses, and I can't figure it out......"

Guo Jia looked pensive, his brows furrowed in thought, but Cao Cao didn't ask questions immediately, because both of them had the same question.

After a while, Cao Cao sighed and said, "He asked the three counties of Chenliu, Lujiang, and Jiujiang not to recruit soldiers, and to manage the displaced people internally, whether it was for today." ”

"Yes, I'm also thinking about this matter below," Guo Jia put his hands behind his back and took a deep breath, "Bowen acts, has a long-term vision, such a complex situation, it is actually laid out all the way, and he can always get the most benefits." ”

"This time, you still have to listen to Bowen's words," Guo Jia said this, and as soon as the words changed, he began to persuade Cao Cao, and now is not the time for them to compete with Xu Zhen for anything.

And sending Cao Zhen to him was a temptation in itself, and the result of this temptation was that Xu Zhen made a very wise choice and didn't blame him for anything.

even gave the commander of the soldiers and horses, and took Cao Zhen with him, so his eyes should be retracted, no matter what he does in Bingzhou and Youzhou in the future, the top priority is to take Jiangdong.

In this way, no one in the princes of the whole world can resist, and the great cause of the Han Dynasty can go up to the next level, and no princes will be able to compete with the lord again.

The most important thing is that if you go back from this big victory, you can enter the Duke of Wei, promote the Duke of Wei for the third time, open the Principality to place a hundred officials, and turn all the soldiers and horses of the Cao family into the soldiers and horses of the Wei State, and the identity will be very different from then on.

Everything is going very smoothly, Guo Jia can already see that within three years, he will assist the lord to complete the great cause, and he will truly go down in history in this life, and he will have no regrets in life and death.

However, Cao Cao sighed, "This trick is a good strategy." ”

"It's just that I can't tell if it's good for Bowen or for me."

Guo Jia was stunned for a moment, his brows suddenly furrowed, and he asked suspiciously, "What do you mean by this?" Why did the lord suddenly say this? ”

"Bowen is in Bingzhou, Youzhou, in order to fight Yongliang, I'm afraid it will take time to expand the territory, the slower the war in the south, the better, wouldn't it be able to give him enough time?"

Cao Cao smiled extremely confidently, and also walked in front of Guo Jia, looking at him with a smile, "Do you think I can't see it?" ”

"The more Birwen did perfectly, the more uneasy it became in my heart, why didn't he get angry?"

When Guo Jia heard this, he was directly stunned, and he didn't know how to answer.

People don't get angry...... Explain that if you are wise and wise, and you know that you don't care about these little things, why should the lord be angry?

"Lord ......"

"Needless to say," Cao Cao raised his hand and looked straight ahead with a smile, his expression slightly worried, "It's because it's so perfect that I can feel the anger in his heart." ”

"Not to you and me, not to the ministers of the Han family, but to the many generals of my Cao family."

"Of course, only you can know about this matter, don't say more, Bowen left me a tip, not these eight words."

Guo Jia suddenly leaned back, took a deep look at Cao Cao's side face, and after a moment of silence, he couldn't help but ask, "Why?" ”

"Huh?" Cao Cao turned his head in surprise and stared at him, "Why are you asking me?" ”

"Because, after many years of fighting, Bowen has made great achievements, and weakened the exploits of many of my generals and ministers, and now that people are not here, why should they use his strategies? Isn't it possible to defeat the Jiangdong rats with you and other advisers? ”

"The Sun family is in a safe corner, although it is peaceful but not strong, just a Jingzhou, it can make him dare not attack, and now that I have changed my Cao family, there are still four states behind me to transport grain, and there is fear?"

"How can Koto resist!? I don't need Bo Wenji, I can still cross Jiangdong with a million heroes and step on his chaisang cornerstone. ”

Guo Jia's eyes lit up, and he immediately bowed his hand, "Okay, since that's the case, I should do my best to fight a big battle on the river." ”

"The war between the North and the South really began at this time."

"Hmph," Cao Cao laughed slightly complacently again, stretched out his hand and patted Guo Jia's arm a few times, and said in a deep voice: "There are Fengxiao, Gongda, and Zhongde, why use Bowen's strategy, don't you look at this trick, aren't you the first-rate in the world?!" Hahaha!! ”

Cao Cao at this time was slightly different from that year.

When Guo Jia looked at his laughing side face, he had mixed tastes, and it was difficult to recall for a while, indeed, the current lord is no longer the Yanzhou Mu who only had one place to live in back then.

Now, it is the overlord of the Central Plains with half of the Han Dynasty in hand, and even more.

The only ones that have not been recovered are Jiangdong, Sichuan Shu and Xiliang, but the most fertile land in the Central Plains is under control.

Why rely on others.

Moreover, there is no need for a grand strategy, they have many ways to win this battle with victory, because the lead is already too much.

He doesn't need Xu Zhen now, he also has enough manpower to pacify Jiangdong, since Sun Liu Alliance, then on the river, clean them all up!

After all, now that even Jingzhou is under control, the huge Jingzhou took it without much effort, coupled with the original heritage of the Cao family, this army is more than twice the number of troops gathered by Yuan Shao back then!

How spectacular!

"Bowen's side, and let him go back, after this battle, all civil and military personnel should make great contributions and be rewarded for meritorious deeds! And Bowen depends on his creation, now his position is high enough, if he wants to go further, then it depends on him, who is faster with us to capture Jiangdong! ”

Cao Cao smiled at Guo Jia, his expression relaxed.

Guo Jia smiled reluctantly, he was the only one here, but now he hoped that Xu Zhen would also be there, if Bowen was there, a few words could make the lord abandon these thoughts, and then tremble with anger.

Only he dared to joke a few words and contradict the prime minister.

The rest of the people, even Cao Pi's son, are submissive.

And Cao Ang's son, although he also dared to speak, but he shouldered the responsibility of today's Jizhou and Xudu, and he was the son of the line, and he could not go south.

Yes, Guo Jia didn't speak.

Only, according to the prime minister's thoughts, it depends on whether the naval army can achieve achievements under the quick attack, and it has to rely on the Jingzhou Navy Division and the Cai family.

……

Zhuo County, Youzhou.

As soon as Xu Zhen arrived, he first ordered the soldiers and horses to set up camp, and then distributed grain to the people in various places, and then divided the fields for the families who had been able to farm for a year.

Then he gave himself a three-day vacation, never came out at home, and spent the night with his wives one after another, preparing to stay in Youzhou for several years.

Waiting for the war in Xiliang to settle down, move to Xiliang.

Three days later, Xu Zhen, who was in a state of mind and stunned, finally came to the main hall and reluctantly listened to Jia Xu's various reports.

On this day, almost Dian Wei has been laughing, and Zhuge Liang, as a disciple, is very qualified, and he has been holding back his laughter.

So in the afternoon of the same day, there was a joke about riding through the wall everywhere, and then he was punished for running 30 laps of the barracks in the evening, patrolling the camp by the way.

Dead.

Jia Xu came to pay a visit, and before he slept, he walked with him in the atrium, holding some teacups made of Chinese medicinal materials, blowing and drinking a little.

"Youzhou's output value is extremely high, but the landform cultivation is small, there are fish markets, salt markets, the most clever arrangement you made at the beginning was to put the tribe of Fuluo outside the Saiwai."

"Now, the area from Bai Tan to the White Wolf is all the tribe of Yufuluo, which can be used by us, and in the clans outside the Saiwai, there are many people who can't eat enough and horses that don't grow fat, and they can be transported in the future."

Jia Xu can be said to be full of smiles, returning to the realm of the border plug that he is familiar with, there are many people he knows, and the people who were recommended back then are everywhere, especially in Bingzhou.

Although there are few Youzhou, his reputation is not small, he pretended to be Duan Ying's family to escape kidnapping, and even had a meal of thieves, such courage and quick wisdom deeds are still widely spread.

So he was happy, when he arrived in his hometown, although Jia Xu said that he could not become a famous figure through the ages, he could be Xu Zhen's "My Wenruo", just like Xun Yu recommended talents to Cao's family, so that he could not worry about the rear in the early stage, and recommended people with both ability and political integrity that he could trust.

In the future, you can also be intimate with the bike and rely on it.

Great opportunity!

So now Jia Xu is working day and night, while his body is still healthy and not old, he is always helping Xu Zhen plan.

"This year, we will let the millions of people who came from Jizhou cultivate and settle together, and then move their ancestral land to Youzhou!"

"This place is set in Daijun and Shanggu for the first generation! There are three big rivers here, the soil quality is good, you can also catch fish and shrimp for the industry, and at the same time close to the state, and from Zhuo County, the chariots, cavalry and horses are all stationed in Zhuo County, and can be the hinterland at any time in the future, and can support this place. ”

"And in the south, it is Zhongshan, and there are also confidants who ride the car, and the local people will naturally be willing to ride the car, which is just enough to be guarded against."

"On guard?!"

Xu Zhen raised his eyebrows, his eyes showing displeasure, "You speak carefully." ”

"Yes, just in case."

"In the future, once you take Yongliang, you can turn to Liangzhou at any time, once the prime minister enters the Duke of Wei, with the merits of riding a car, you can also enter the Gong."

"Wait for the opportunity, sit in the north and the west, so as to ...... Solid also. ”

Jia Xu's strategy has already been written, plus in addition to the right Beiping, there are places such as Liaodong and White Wolf, that place, but after conquering Liucheng, he repelled Wuhuan and got it.

Liaodong, where Gongsun Kang is located, has a deterrent to Goguryeo, and once Xiliang and Sichuan and Shu take it, isn't it just peace of mind? !

What's the difference between this and being an emperor?

Of course, this is naturally not to be said, even if you think in your heart, you can't say it.

With such a feat, as the tide rises and falls, Jia's can also be extremely prominent in the future, and he can wake up with a smile when he thinks about it.

"Tsk," Xu Zhen snorted, and immediately said: "Farm for three years first, unite with Liaodong, don't fight Yongliang, only use soldiers and horses to deter, Mr. Wenhe." ”

Xu Zhen's tone suddenly sank.

"Yes."

Jia Xu quickly approached and put away all the smiles on his face.

"Wait for the rich, and then think about the next step, the current thing, to grow, but also to be rich, all the clans in Youzhou, I will definitely accept it, and then, come and tell me the next strategy!"

"Good, good!"

Jia Xu calmed down slightly, "Indeed, you shouldn't be in a hurry. ”

Zhuo County is in charge of the government, and it is gradually entering the winter.

This year's autumn harvest is not a big harvest in Youzhou, so some people do have no food at home, but after Xu Zhen arrived in Youzhou in November, he distributed grain and charcoal, which made many people enough to spend the winter.

Naturally, the popularity of the people overwhelmed when Cao Ang was there.

Because when Cao Ang was there, there was no charcoal in the snow, and the harvest was steady.

And Xu Zhen chose a good time as soon as he came, and he gave food to help the people when he took office, which invisibly gave people a kind of gap, and naturally he had to worry a lot.

None of this is Xu Zhen's luck, early on the march, these routes and the benefits that can be thought of have already been demarcated.

Along the way, there are benefits everywhere, and it has to be amazing.

Before the arrival of the winter, Gongsun Kang heard that Xu Zhen had returned to Youzhou to serve as the state pastor, and immediately sent military rations, treasures, and a lot of imported goods to Youzhou, preparing to come to Zhuo County for the New Year.

At the same time, I also want to ask Xu Zhen to ask for Lelang and Xuansu counties.

To a name.

These themselves are also his territories, and the seaside territory of Liaodong is also his, if it can be achieved, Youzhou will belong to Xu Zhen in the future.

So this time, he came with full sincerity.
