Sure enough, with Cao Cao, you have to learn to observe words and feelings, and you have to grow a few more eyes.

One can't be more, one can't be less.

One more let Cao Cao know, and you will die without a place to be buried.

One less will die without a place to be buried.

There is no shortage of smart people around Cao Cao, but what is lacking is no more, no less, just smart people.

Look at the four strategists around him, Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Jia Xu, and Sima Yi, which one of them is not a smart person.

It's so smart.

How can we avoid Cao Cao's plot this time?

The key is to hide not lightly or heavily, the heat is just right, and there are no traces.

That's hard.

Guo Ming thought about it for a long time, but he didn't come up with a proper method, and finally held back a sentence.

"Brother, save me."

Yes, if he goes into battle, he will be unpredictable.

If it is Xu Zhu and Xiahoudun, even if it is Cao Hong, he doesn't have to worry.

But if it is Liu Ergou who is given around, it will be troublesome.

Who is Liu Ergou? That's right, Guo Ming doesn't know him himself!

There was only one way to go.

"Brother, save me." Guo Ming could only pounce on Guo Jia and shout this sentence.

Shame on you? It's really a shame to be thrown home.

But it's not the first time that Guo Ming has played tricks with Guo Jia since he was a child.

Guo Jia was helpless, looking at his unsuccessful brother, and pushed him away with a stumbling face.

If he really didn't want to save him, he wouldn't have left the game halfway through and came to him specially.

"I came to save you. Tomorrow, the Ming Guild will receive a letter from you, asking you to return to Xu Duding. ”

"Ding Wei?"

Don't let me do it? That's great!

Guo Ming felt that there was a knife dangling in the back of his neck all the time from just now.

When Guo Jia said this, it was like taking the knife away from his neck.

"Do you think you'll be idle if you go home and worry? Don't think about it, you, you must remember, hurry up and find a way to raise food and grass. ”

"Once the collection is made, now the army can send me a month's worth of food and grass. Remember, be sure to escort it yourself. ”

"Huh? Oh! ”

Guo Ming's mind hiccuped at first, but when he heard Guo Jia say this, he immediately understood.

This is to sell Cao Cao's favor.

"Brother, you can really pinch and calculate, how do you know that the land of Huaiyang is about to be drought?"

The reason why Cao Cao's conquest of Yuan Shu failed was because there was no grain and grass. Why is there no food and grass? Just because of three major droughts.

The last drought, before I could cross over, was the drought in Yanzhou, which interrupted the dispute between Cao Cao and Lu Bu.

It was also because of this drought that Cao Cao found a general, Xu Zhu, when he was conquering the Yellow Turban Thieves.

It was also from this battle that Lu Bu was not a problem.

Because of the later Yanzhou War, Xu Zhu first went up and killed Lu Bu for fifty rounds, and then Dian Wei went up again, and then Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, and Cao Hong went together, and Lu Bu ran away under the protection of Zhang Liao Gaoshun.

Yes, six dozen and three stunned people didn't kill anyone, but just beat people away.

This was the first drought.

The second great drought came from before, in the land of Guannei, and it was precisely because of this drought that the emperor was able to slip out of Yang Feng's hands, and Cao Cao took advantage of the situation to take Xu Huang.

Now that this third great drought is about to occur, it is the time for Cao Cao to conquer Yuan Shu.

In this incident, Cao Cao asked the grain officer to change from big to small, and borrowed a human head to calm the sergeant's anger.

In the process of marching, I had a plan to say that there was a plum forest ahead, and I came to look at the plum to quench my thirst, all of which were this time.

Guo Ming actually forgot about these things and forgot about them.

Guo Jia mentioned this point, and he remembered.

The reason why Cao Cao's expedition ended without a problem was because of a lack of food!

However, Guo Jia looked at Guo Ming quite unexpectedly.

"Oh, you see that, too?"

"It's just a guess that the first two droughts were all from the north, and now it's the turn of the south."

Guo Jia sighed.

"You're still a businessman, but you can't guess accurately, it's the case, this year's water is called a big drought."

"But I can still speculate on some more things, the drought in the Guannai is the immediate thing, where did General Xiahou go."

"The upstream is out of water, are you going to let the downstream have water? There will be a great drought. ”

But why don't you follow this...... Forget it, only a fool wouldn't tell Cao Cao.

Cao Cao's conquest of Yuan Shu was nothing more than to fire the first shot.

This is a battle that is far more political than military.

As long as he can take the lead in weakening Yuan Shu's forces, then Lu Bu, Sun Ce, Liu Biao and others will basically all attack.

Sun Jian died because of Yuan Shu, and the cause of his death was also because Yuan Shu instigated him to beat Liu Biao.

Sun Ce was angry and left Yuan Shu because of this.

Therefore, Sun Ce, Liu Biao, and Yuan Shu are riveted to death.

Now that Sun Cebing has enough food, if there is another righteousness first, and it is not the first shot, someone has already conscripted Yuan Shu before, and now he only needs to grab a baton.

What's more, this person and Sun Ce are divided into a north-south direction.

Presumably, Sun Ce will not let go of Yuan Shu's territory in Yangzhou.

As for Lu Bu, he now owns Xuzhou, but Yuan Shu still has a title on the surface, "Duke of Xuzhou". As early as when Tao Qian was still there, he and Yuan Shu were incompatible.

Now although Lu Bu is sitting in Xuzhou, he is really in the imperial court, and the master of Xuzhou is still Yuan Shu. It's strange that Lu Bu doesn't beat him.

Cao Cao only needs to fire the first shot, and after the fight, he will withdraw and wait for the three parties to weaken Yuan Shu.

After all, on Cao Cao's side, Yuan Shu's biggest crime was to be the emperor.

As long as the authority of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty is not weakened, Yuan Shu and Cao Cao, one in Yanzhou and the other in Yangzhou, no one can hinder anyone.

Therefore, Cao Cao's conquest of Yuan Shu must be this time, and the next thing is the wheel battle that Yuan Shu himself will face.

When he can't do it, Cao Cao will strike again.

"Understood, thank you, big brother." Guo Ming hurriedly bowed his head and thanked him.

After thinking about all the relationships that come and go, Guo Ming also knows what to do.

Hurry back to Xu Du to do two things.

The first thing to do is to collect some rice seeds along the way, as long as people are willing to sell five times or ten times the price, and send these things to Zao Yuan as soon as possible.

If you hadn't really crossed over, you would have almost forgotten General Zaoyuan.

He was Cao Cao's special general in Tuntian, who was in charge of the military tun.

Cao Cao collected nearly a million gold thieves before, but in fact, there were only more than 200,000 who could fight.

The rest of the people are the families of the more than 200,000 people.

Among these people, the infantry is a famous Qingzhou soldier, and the cavalry is a famous tiger and leopard horseman, all of whom are people who can conquer and fight.
