Xun Yu is a gentleman, and always has been.

But that doesn't stop him from saying banters from time to time, especially on a happy day like today, where it doesn't hurt to make an exception once in a while.

As a qualified politician, when he learned about the yield of potatoes and sweet potatoes, he quickly calculated many things.

Like what...... The people produce food, the population, the army......

If what Guo Jia said is true.

If the world will eventually be unified.

If......

They will create an unprecedented prosperous era, a prosperous era that surpasses Xuanwu.

Jia Xu didn't expect that even Xun Yu, who had always been a humble gentleman, would make fun of him, and he was speechless for a while.

"If the yield of this potato is really as Taiwei said, it should be immediately promoted to all parts of Guanzhong." Mi Zhu's opening diverted everyone's attention, and no one was holding Jia Xu's release of the heavenly thunder, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

Not to be outdone, Zhen Yan added: "I think it is necessary to strictly inspect the passes everywhere to prevent the potatoes from flowing out." Even if you can't hold it, you should delay the other princes to get the potatoes as much as possible. ”

It's selfish, but it's in your own interest.

Food is related to the population, economy, and even the army of one side.

The soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first, and this sentence of the ancients is not just talking.

"Good!" Liu Bei is not a hypocritical person, so naturally he will not enhance the enemy's strength in the name of benevolence and righteousness, which is also an irresponsible behavior for his subordinates.

"The promotion of potatoes in Guanzhong will be handled by Fengxiao and Wen Ruo, and in addition, send people to secretly send seeds to Yun Chang and Wen Yuan, so that they can also plant them in Bingzhou and Xiliang."

"Yes!"

……

Yanzhou, Xuchang.

"Yizhou Jia Long, Ren Qi rebelled, and supported Liu Zhang to stand on his own feet in Shu County. In addition, the imperial court designated Liu Yan as a thief in the name of privately building a car frame and intending to rebel, called on the princes of the world to punish him, and canonized Liu Zhang as the pastor of Yizhou. ”

"In addition, Huang Zhong, the general under Liu Bei, led his army into Shu to help Liu Zhang fight the thief, and Zhang Lu in Hanzhong also began to move."

Cao Cao slowly made the battle report of Yizhou public, and the faces of the martial arts under his command were different.

After a while, the mastermind Xun You took the lead: "This must be Liu Bei's plan, although I don't know what method they used to make Jia Long, Ren Qi and others turn against Liu Yan, but judging from the time when Huang Zhong entered Shu, Liu Bei seems to have had an insight in advance that there would be changes in Yizhou." ”

"How so?" Cao Cao asked.

"Don't you think it's strange to the lord? Why were Jia Long, Ren Qi and others obviously not Liu Yan's opponents, but they were able to fight against him and escape from Chengdu? ”

"What do you mean...... Liu Bei single-handedly promoted the division of Yizhou, making Liu Yan and the Yizhou scholars kill each other? ”

"Exactly!" Cheng Yu, another mastermind of Cao Cao, walked out of the column and said in a deep voice: "Liu Bei is just recuperating now, and when he has enough food and grass, whether it is Liu Yan or Jia Long Renqi and others, they are definitely not the opponents of the North Metro under his command." ”

"What a treacherous big-eared thief!" Cao Cao scolded, and then said: "It seems that we are also going to work harder, first destroy Yuan Shu, and then go north to fight with Yuan Shao, and finally join the forces of the Central Plains to fight with Liu Bei." ”

Each prince had his own development strategy, Liu Bei's focus was on Guanzhong and Bashu, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were fighting for the Central Plains, and Yuan Shu was entrenched on both sides of the Yangtze River.

And the rest of Liu Biao and others can only be in a corner of peace, and it is difficult to open up the situation. I believe that it won't be long before there will be only a few big forces left in Kyushu in the world.

Cao Cao paused for a moment, then looked at Chen Gong again: "Zhang Xiu, how did Liu Biao and the others respond?" ”

Previously, they had set a strategy of summoning the princes of the Quartet to besiege Yuan Shu, and the person responsible for sending people to contact the other princes was none other than Chen Gong.

"Liu Biao was the first to express his willingness to send troops to help, he already had the intention of recapturing Nanyang, as long as the lord wins the first battle, he will definitely attack Nanyang."

"Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei have the hatred of killing their uncle and the hatred of Yin's sister-in-law, and he wants to take revenge only by joint reinforcements, and he is also willing to send troops."

When Chen Gong said this, Cao Cao's face suddenly became mixed.

The name of the wife in this world was robbed by Guo Jia, and the Zou family, which was as smooth as water, was also taken into his pocket...... In fact, Cao Cao is more willing to bear this infamy...

"Lord...... Lord? ”

Chen Gong's voice woke Cao Cao up from his melancholy state, and he looked around at everyone and found that they all had surprises on their faces, after all, Cao Cao had never been distracted when discussing business.

"I'm thinking, that Liu Bei pretends to be benevolent and righteous, but connives, his subordinates are silver wives and daughters, and he is really a hypocrite with false feelings." Cao Cao obviously counted Guo Jia's doing whatever he wanted on Liu Bei's head, and Liu Bei was very innocent of this.

But Cao Cao is more or less used to it, who let him wake up too late, his wife and children were snatched away, is there still a mistress?

However, everyone was diverted by him, and Xun You said with a smile: "Guo Fengxiao's love for his wife was already well known in Yingchuan back then. This man said shamelessly...... I don't know how good a young woman is, and I mistake a girl for a treasure......"

"Did Guo Jia really say that?" Cao Cao was shocked and thought so in his heart, because he also thought so.

"Naturally, it's true, and this matter is known for a long time." Although Xun You didn't understand why Cao Cao reacted so much, he still nodded and pulled out Chen Qun as a guarantee.

Chen Qun sneered when he heard this: "This guy is a prodigal, it's not surprising. ”

Cao Cao had some regrets, and only hated that he could not walk hand in hand with Guo Jia in this life. In addition to the war, there are some more boudoir secrets to discuss......

Chen Gong said unhappily: "Everyone, we are talking about business!" ”

Geng is as straightforward as him, and he doesn't care if Guo Jiaxi doesn't like his wife.

Cao Cao smiled and raised his hand to signal: "Gongtai continue." ”

Chen Gong continued: "Sun Ce has now gained a firm foothold in Jiangdong, with Zhou Yu and Lu Su behind him, and many scholars in Jiangdong have surrendered, so it must only be a matter of time before he occupies the entire territory of Jiangdong. ”

"Is Sun Ce willing to join forces with me to defeat Yuan Shu?"

"Yes, but he has one condition, that is, let us rescue Sun Jian for him."

Chen Gong then explained to everyone that Sun Jian was under house arrest by Yuan Shu, and Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh after hearing this: "Sun Wentai was famous, but now he has become a caged tiger, which is really sad and lamentable!" ”

"In your opinion, should we help Sun Ce rescue Sun Jian's tiger?"

Cheng Yu took the lead in expressing his opinion: "I think that when I should be saved, Sun Ce's courage is no less than that of his father, even if there is no Sun Jian, he will become a climate sooner or later." It's better to be a favor and use his hand to destroy Yuan Shu! ”

Xun You also nodded and said, "I also agree with this matter." ”

Chen Gong was astonishing.

"I think I should be saved, but I don't save it."

"Why?"

While sending people to rescue Sun Jian, he secretly told Yuan Shu, causing Sun Wentai to die in the hands of Yuan Shu. In this way, Sun Ce and Sun Jian have a grudge against their father, and his Jiangdong army will spare no effort to attack Yuan Shu! ”

The poor generation of fierce generals has become an insignificant pawn in the hands of these resourceful people.
