Jia Xu was unprecedentedly active, and he rushed ahead of Guo Jia to express his opinion.

"Hefei lies in the middle of Huainan, if you fail to control this area, these counties in the south of Lujiang are only afraid that it will be difficult to defend, and when we withdraw our troops back to the Central Plains, Sun Quan will definitely go and return, Ming Gong had better plan early."

"How?"

Faced with Cao Cao's questioning, Jia Xu replied: "Since you know that you can't hold it, then move the people of all counties, and there are tens of thousands of people in several counties, just to supplement the population shortage of Shouchun." ”

"Makes sense."

Cao Cao nodded: "It's a good thing to take precautions, leaving a blank for Sun Quan and making his garrison unable to be self-sufficient." ”

"If Sun Quan moves the people of Jiangdong here, Ming Gong can let Shouchun's garrison go south regularly, and then plunder its people and return Shouchun to the north, I believe that after plundering the people a few times, Sun Quan will give up Huainan, then Ming Gong only needs to take Hefei, then ten thousand ships can cross the river and set foot on Jiangdong."

Jia Xu's unsolvable plan went directly to the boss's heart.

Cao Cao couldn't help but slap his thigh, pointed at Jia Xu in public and boasted: "Wenhe's plan is exactly what I want." ”

Guo Jia heard Jia Xu being praised, and his competitive heart was also aroused, and he also got up to offer advice.

"Ming Gong, at present, Anhui City has not been conquered, and there are many people in Anhui County in the south of Lujiang.

I suggest taking advantage of the situation to take Hefei, I heard that Hefei has a population of tens of thousands, and it is currently the most populous city in the entire Huainan, and if you take Hefei, you will be able to take Huainan completely, and then Sun Quan and Zhou Yu can only retreat to the south of the Yangtze River. ”

"Anhui County? Hefei? Cao Cao said to himself: "Anhui County has few soldiers and few people, which is relatively easy to fight, while Hefei has a slightly more defender and a strong city, and Long Xiang is assisted by Lu Zijing, and has defeated Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, so you have to have a good mouth. in order to be willing to gnaw this hard bone. ”

Guo Jia added: "Although the bones are hard but the pith is abundant, Long Xiang has been in Hefei for a few years, but he is careful to only raise more than 10,000 defenders, and he must have a lot of grain. ”

Cao Cao nodded frequently when he heard this, and laughed at himself at everyone: "Feng Xiao said that I am really a little moved, I am afraid that I will not be able to take the city in a short time, and I will run out of food and return in vain, so it will be as embarrassing as Sun Ce and Zhou Yu?" Those princes who don't know what to do still think that I am raising troops for the second bridge."

The last sentence is true, 'There are no silver three hundred taels here', everyone was embarrassed to echo with a smile, and said that Wancheng was known to the world that time, do you still care about this reputation?

Dong Zhao immediately explained for Cao Cao: "It is rumored that Erqiao is pregnant one after another this year, what woman can't Ming Gong want?" It's just a stigma to talk about it."

"Gongren, listen to me."

Guo Jia interrupted Dong Zhao and said to Cao Cao Zhengse: "Everyone has a love for beauty, so even if Ming Gong accepts the second daughter, what does it matter?" Long Xiang's children are more expensive than their mothers, as for outsiders, what can outsiders say? It's just envy, jealousy, incompetence, and rage. ”

Cao Cao listened with a bitter face, and said in his heart, why is it getting farther and farther? Is this the time to discuss private issues?

But is Long Xiang too inferior? More than a year after getting married?

If you leave it to the old man, hum

No, Guo Jia actively suggested playing Hefei, don't you kid have ideas, right?

The reputation of the second bridge has long been spread all over Xudu, and now is the time to be glamorous, Guo Fengxiao likes to linger in the flowers, and it is inevitable that he will think about it.

Before destroying Lu Bu in the past, Guan Yu had asked him to marry the Du family, but he did lose his words that time, so he didn't keep Xiapi in the end.

Cao Cao thought about it for only this reason, otherwise how could he follow Liu Bei without hesitation?

Yun Chang abandoned me and left, I can't let Fengxiao become the next one.

"Ahem."

Cao Cao coughed back and grabbed the words, looked at Guo Jiayi and said solemnly: "What Feng Xiao said is very true, everyone has a heart for beauty, Erqiao Meiguan Jiangzuo, if you can successfully conquer Hefei, I will give you two daughters as concubines, how about it?" ”

"Me? No, no, no."

Guo Jia is very smart, and immediately understood Cao Cao's voice, and said in his heart that I suggested playing Hefei, but it was not for myself.

After waving his hand and vigorously denying it, Guo Jia explained: "Although I also love Mei Ji Concubine, I really don't think it's appropriate for Erqiao to be pregnant after all, and Hefei doesn't have to be attacked, you can try to say that the dragon will return to the imperial court, so you can't force his wife."

Cao Cao saw that Guo Jiayu was disgusted, and said in his heart that you kid really don't know how to do it, such a woman can serve people, he raised his eyes and muttered to himself: "Long Xiang, this person is a little strange, as if he has taken root in Hefei, and Lujiang is too guarded by him to refuse, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to persuade him to surrender."

Guo Jia confidently said: "Long Xiang didn't know the current affairs before, because the Ming Duke did not use troops against Huainan, if he knows that you easily killed 20,000 people of Wu Jing in a snap of your fingers, you may not have the courage to persevere, and the combination of diplomatic means and military means can have the best effect." ”

"Makes sense"

When Cao Cao pondered, he saw Jia Xu bowing his head slightly and his face was expressionless, and he said that this old fox was afraid of disagreeing, so he stopped him and asked: "Wenhe, Fengxiao's view is bolder, what do you have to say?" ”

"Amount"

Jia Xu groaned slightly, and replied: "The situation in Anhui County is predictable, and the strong attack will definitely be taken, I don't know Longxiang, and I don't know much about Hefei, so it is inconvenient to express my opinion, in short, it is all up to Ming Gong to decide." ”

Cao Cao said in his heart that you are cunning enough, and you push the problem back to me back and forth, but Cao Cao likes Jia Xu's sophistication, just like he likes Guo Jia's publicity.

"Well, Wen and Lao Cheng are very serious and think about it very comprehensively."

Cao Cao said, glanced at everyone, and then tapped on the table: "Before the meal, Zipengshan sent an urgent report, Wen Yuan, Zihe have captured Wu Jing, they should be able to return to Shu County tomorrow, they have been stationed in the periphery of Hefei for a long time, I believe they have different opinions, ask more and then decide that it is not too late, everyone continues to eat." ”

"Yui."

Everyone continued to pick up the rice while serving the bowls, and the food fell into different mouths and chewed out different tastes.

At noon the next day, Zhang Liao and others finally arrived in Shu County.

Compared with Zhang He, Xu Huang, Gao Ran and other departments rushed back and forth, but they didn't get much in the past ten days, but Zhang Liao and the three of them feinted in Hefei for a long time, but they picked up a big leak on the last day.

In the Shu County Mansion, the civil and military are divided into left and right.

Cao Cao looked at the generals, and said slowly: "The grain ship was unfortunately burned, and the military rations of each battalion were only enough for June, and now there are still ten days left.

Especially the opinions of Wen Yuan, Zihe, and Yuan Hei, you should see some clues during the time you were stationed in Hefei, I don't know if there is a chance to fight down? ”

Zhang Liao first looked left and right, and then came out of the column to reply with his fists: "If the lord chooses one of the two from Anhui County and Hefei, and there is only ten days, the final general will recommend fighting Anhui County, not Hefei."

Cao Cao was about to ask why, but Cao Chun and Han Hao also came out to hug their fists at the same time.

"General Zhang, what you said is very true, and the last general seconded it."
