Liu Xie never thought that Boss Cao and Liu Bei's Qingmei Cooking Wine Theory Hero actually happened between him and Guo Jia.

"It wouldn't be that Guo Jia first told Boss Cao about the world's heroes, and then Boss Cao used it to test Liu Bei, right?"

Liu Xie guessed in his heart, thinking that it was really very possible.

Otherwise, how can you explain that the two of them say exactly the same thing?

However, these are inconsequential matters, Liu Xie coughed lightly and said, "Hmm...... What Feng Xiao said is very true, and I also feel that if today, only Liu Xuande and Cao Mengde can be regarded as heroes. ”

"But now that I am under the control of Yuan Shao, I feel that it is more important to think about how to use Yuan Shu to become emperor to further weaken Yuan Shao's strength and get rid of his clamps."

"What is Bonghyo's opinion?"

Liu Xie hurriedly shifted the topic to how to deal with Yuan Shao.

He was afraid that if he talked to Guo Jia any longer, Longzhong might jump out later, which would be too discordant.

After Guo Jia listened, he stretched out three fingers.

"During this period of time, the minister has thought of a total of three strategies, upper, middle and lower, I don't know which one Your Majesty wants to listen to first?"

Looking at Guo Jia's smiling expression, Liu Xie felt a pain in his eyes.

Okay, good, classic upper, middle and lower three-strategy multiple-choice questions.

Do all the strategists in the world like to play this game?

For example, if you use a certain C browser to log in to a small yellow web in the middle of the night, but at this time, the browser says that the web page is dangerous and pops up to give you three options.

First, go back to the secure URL.

Second, stick to the visit (strongly not recommended)

Third, deny access and buy a safe Internet guard.

May I ask which one will you choose when you are pinching the cow cow that is about to explode in the bed?

The answer is obvious.

So generally speaking, there are three strategies, the upper policy is what the superior cannot do, the lower policy is what the superior does not want to do, and the middle strategy is what the superior wants to do, and the strategist really suggests.

As for the other two, they just tell you that you have the right to choose, and I gave the strategy, and how to choose is your business.

"Let's talk about it."

Liu Xie was weak and decided to listen to it first.

Guo Jia came to his senses and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the best policy is to leave Jizhou and go to Jingzhou to seek refuge with Liu Biao." ”

"Liu Biao is still loyal to the Han family, and is cowardly and indecisive, and can be easily subdued; In addition, Jingzhou is an important place, with complete military rations, which can be the cornerstone of His Majesty's sweep of the world. ”

I knew it......

As soon as Liu Xie heard this strategy, he rolled his eyes immediately.

Can he not know that it is the best choice to go to Liu Biao?

But only if he can go!

Don't say that you can't go to Jizhou, it's a question whether you can get out of Yecheng, Yuan Shao's army is stationed outside the city, and he only has a pitiful thousand guards in his hands, not even a fraction of Yuan Shao's army!

"Let's talk about the middle way."

"The middle way?"

Guo Jia restrained the smile on his face and said in a deep voice: "The middle strategy is ...... Kill Yuan Shao. ”

？？？

Liu Xie almost jumped up in shock, looked at Guo Jia with a ghostly expression, and couldn't help but say, "Are you sure this is not a strategy?" ”

He wondered if Guo Jia had misunderstood the definition of Zhongce.

"Your Majesty, don't be impatient, listen to the minister's explanation for you."

Guo Jia soothed, and then began to explain his middle strategy to Liu Xie in detail: "Your Majesty must know that if Yuan Shao does not die, you will not have the slightest possibility of breaking out of his control, let alone developing your own strength." ”

"Only when Yuan Shao dies can you have the opportunity to take his place and take Jizhou."

Liu Xie felt that Guo Jia was completely fooling him, and frowned: "What if I kill Yuan Shao?" Still unable to take over Jizhou, do you really think that Yuan Shao's troops and cronies are loyal to me? ”

If he killed Yuan Shao and became the lord of Jizhou, Liu Xie would definitely have done it a long time ago, which was not difficult for him.

You must know that there are many opportunities for him and Yuan Shao to meet, so he found the right time and used the dagger hidden in his sleeve to directly enter a white knife and go out with a red knife.

But killing Yuan Shao, he will definitely face the wrath of Yuan Shao's faction's cronies.

With the identity of this son of heaven, he will not die, but he will inevitably be placed under house arrest and will no longer be able to have any contact with the outside world.

What is the point of such an assassination?

"Your Majesty misunderstood, the minister didn't let you kill Yuan Shao, but only when Yuan Shao died, you would have a chance."

Guo Jia sold a pass, and said unhurriedly: "Yuan Shao has three sons, sister-in-law Yuan Tan, second son Yuan Xi, and third son Yuan Shang. ”

"The relationship between his three sons is the same as that between him and Yuan Shu, and they are not compatible with each other; And the advisors and generals under Yuan Shao's command also supported one of them. ”

"If Yuan Shao dies, the third son will definitely start to compete for the position of the head of the family, and at the same time, the foreign enemy will also wait for the opportunity to attack, and then Jizhou will have internal and external troubles, and Your Majesty will have the opportunity to fish in troubled waters!"

Killing Yuan Shao is not the goal, but letting Jizhou fall into civil strife is!

Only civil strife will have a chance to reap the benefits!

After Liu Xie heard this, even though he felt that this strategy was very crazy, he had to admit that it was indeed very feasible!

The only problem is how to kill Yuan Shao unknowingly.

“……”

Liu Xiejian's eyebrows furrowed, and after pondering for a moment, he asked, "Then what is the next step?" ”

Guo Jia's expression relaxed, and he said: "The next strategy is much simpler, the minister knows that there are disagreements between the strategists under Yuan Shao, as long as they make good use of this, they will attack each other; then used Yuan Shao's self-righteous personality to make him separate from the strategists; Then the minister deliberately created contradictions between other princes and Yuan Shao to provoke a war, and then Yuan Shao would be defeated, and His Majesty would be able to get out of trouble. ”

"The only problem is that this policy will take a few years or even longer, and it will take some time for the minister to win Yuan Shao's trust."

Guo Jia talked eloquently, looking full of confidence.

Liu Xie knew that he was not talking on paper.

With Guo Jia's means and wisdom, as long as he is given enough time, he can do all of what he says.

But all in all, the upper, middle, and lower strategies, the lower policy is indeed the easiest to achieve, but it takes a long time, and Liu Xie can't wait that long; The best strategy is the best option, but it is basically impossible to do.

The only medium strategy is feasible and has great benefits, and it does not take a long time, and this is also Guo Jia's most recommended choice.

"If I choose the middle course, what are you going to do?"

Liu Xie then asked, he really felt moved.

Guo Jia said with a smile: "The minister has his own plans, and it will take a certain amount of time, but it will definitely be much shorter than the time used to make a plan." ”

"Okay, you just let it go, if there's anything I need help with, it's okay."

Liu Xie agreed without hesitation.

The two hit it off.

……

And at this moment, Yuan Shao, who was conspired by Liu Xie and Guo Jia to do something, also woke up on the bed in Yuan's mansion.
