"It's not feasible!" After hearing Xu You's plan, Xun Yu thought for a moment, shook his head and said.

"Why is it not feasible?" Xu You's expression stopped, a hint of unhesitation appeared in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "I would like to ask Lord Shangshu Ling for advice!"

Xu Youxiang was unfaithful and naturally could not tolerate his plan being refuted by others.

Xun Yu was originally talking about things and not people, and said unconsciously: "The reason why Liu Bei was inviting Ma Dai was not just to expand his military strength, but also to plan for Xiliang in the future.

Although Liu Bei values ​​false reputation, he values ​​real profit, and it is unlikely that he will give up the Ma Dai brothers for the sake of two military positions."

After a pause, Xun Yu continued, "There is vice versa. According to the information already, Ma Chao could almost be said to have died at the hands of Liu Bei's army.

But despite this, the Ma Dai brothers were still willing to surrender to Liu Bei, not for anything else, but just wanted to use Liu Bei's strength to avenge the Prime Minister and Han Sui. The combination of these two parties was entirely due to their respective interests.

Therefore, it is not until the end of the day that Liu Bei and Ma Dai will never turn against each other."

"Although Lord Xun said it well..." Xu You said unwillingly. "But Ma Dai's time to surrender to Liu Bei is still short, and the gap between the two sides is not over yet, and You may not be able to succeed in your plan.

Besides, Liu Bei is very good at winning people's hearts. After a while, even if he wants to do this plan of separation, he will have no chance. The opportunity must not be missed, and he will not come again. Please be careful about it!"

Cao Cao frowned slightly. He did not immediately respond to Xu You's request. Based on Cao Cao's understanding of Liu Bei, he naturally knew how much he was able to succeed in this divisive plan.

But after a little thought, Cao Cao also believed that even if Xu You's plan failed, it would not cause any harm to his side.

"Okay, just follow Ziyuan's plan!" Quan assumed that he was not jealous of Xu You, Cao Cao nodded and said to Xun Yu, "Wenruo. You immediately draft an imperial edict and order Liu Bei to send the rebel brothers Ma Dai to Xudu!"

"Yes!" Seeing that Cao Cao had already agreed, Xun Yu stopped saying anything and responded.

Seeing that his proposal was accepted, Xu You looked happy and retreated back to the train with brisk steps.

"Father, if Liu Bei refused, will the right general not be given to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei before this?" Cao Pi, who stood solemnly and listened to the matter, suddenly asked.

"..." Cao Cao shook his head and said with a smile. "Even if Liu Bei doesn't agree, he still wants to give it to him."

"Why is this?" Cao Pi seemed to have nodded, but still asked honestly.

Cao Cao looked at his son with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "As Cai Ziyuan said, Liu Bei's statement was just a gesture. Even if I don't agree, he will appoint him on his own.

I wonder how many of the generals, generals and lieutenants under his command were appointed by the emperor's promise? Besides, there is no need to break the friendship with Yun Chang for such a mere thing..." Cao Cao never talked about his love for Guan Yu in front of his civil and military officials.

"Thank you for your advice!" Cao Pi bowed respectfully and said nothing.

"Since the Prime Minister intends to agree to Liu Bei's remarks, Yu thought it would be better to be generous and grant him the right to pass the pass and Zhang to the false rituals." Xun Yu said with a long beard.

As soon as he heard this, Cao Cao immediately understood what Xun Yu meant, shook his head and said, "Wen Ruo's strategy is futile. I want Yun Chang, what kind of relationship is Zhang Fei and Liu Bei. In order to see Liu Bei, Yun Chang can hang a seal and seal gold.

He traveled thousands of miles to search; to save Liu Bei, Zhang Fei could enter my camp of tens of thousands of soldiers with 300 cavalry. It would be impossible to divide the three of them in this way!"

"Acquiring the positions of the general in front and the right. If you are granted the power of the vassal festival, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei can open the government (establish the office of the government, and choose the subordinates of the subordinates. At the end of the Han Dynasty, military positions above the front, back, left, and right can be used to open the government).

"Xun Yu explained calmly, "Liu Bei's land is growing more and more. In the future, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei will inevitably have one place to defend each other. If he can open a prefecture, the two will inevitably have greater authority. Many people in the world can share hardships, but they may not be able to share wealth. How can Liu Bei's brothers be exempted from the common people?

Even if the three brothers Liu Bei are sincere, no one can guarantee that their subordinates will have no dissatisfaction. As long as there is a little movement and take advantage of the situation to stir up the flames, it may lead to internal turmoil."

"Take this opportunity, the Prime Minister can not only sell personal favors to Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but also bury nails between the three of them. Why not do it?" After a smile, Xun Yu said in a harmonious voice, "Justice Xu (Xu You is the attendant of the scattered cavalry) said, if things are done, it will be an unexpected joy, and if they are lost, they will not be worrying!"

With the long beard under his chin, Cao Cao pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Then give it a try..."

Suddenly, Cao Cao asked Xun Yu again: "Wenruo, what are the expected agricultural harvests in various prefectures and counties this year?"

"Prime Minister Don't worry, the four prefectures of Yu, Xu, Yan and Qing have been in good weather this year. The Grand Historian has also divined the weather and said that there will be no drought, flood, or insect disasters before the autumn harvest. There will be a bumper harvest in these four prefectures.

Yong, Si, Ji, and several states compared to last year, the harvest should be maintained at a similar level!” Xun Yu knew that Cao Cao was concerned about whether the autumn harvest of grain could support the army's wars in the north and south, and replied in a harmonious voice.

"Okay!" Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction, "This year, the Xianbei invaded the south and the Jingzhou rebellion, delayed the opportunity to conquer Hebei. I intend to attack Yuan Tan after the autumn harvest, and pacify Hebei in one fell swoop, and then take the victorious army to cross Jing and seize Yang!"

"Before this, I ordered all prefectures and counties to speed up the recruitment and train soldiers." Cao Cao swept across the people in the hall with his bright eyes and said in a deep voice.

"Prime Minister, Ren has something to report!" Cao Ren said with a step forward. "In recent months, the Jinfan naval army under Liu Bei's command has spread across the Huai River and often raided Xu, Henan provinces, Pengcheng, and Runan counties in particular suffered.

Our army has no navy to compete with, and we always have nothing to do with it!"

"Jinfan Navy?!" Cao Cao frowned and turned his eyes to Jia Xu.

"The head of the Jinfan Navy Army was Gan Ning. It is reported that this person was the head of the three major thieves in the Jianghuai area in the past, and was named Jinfan Thieves. Later, he was taken in by Liu Bei.

Liu Bei allowed him to form the Jinfan Navy in the name of the "bandit" in the past. This navy had a strong combat power. In just one and a half years, he completely defeated the Jiangdong Navy, which was originally traversing the Yangtze River. Later, when he assisted Liu Qi to quell the civil strife in Jingzhou, he wiped out the Jingzhou Navy!" Jia Xu knew what Cao Cao's eyes meant, and immediately reported the information he knew, "Now, no navy can compete with him in the Jianghuai land.

There are fighting ships under the command of Jinfan Navy, Mengchong, and there are thousands of boats. Nearly 10,000 soldiers. Currently, the person patrolling the Huai River seems to be Jiang Qin, the deputy commander of Jinfan Navy. This person was originally an old general of the Sun family!"

Cao's army usually fought north of the Huai River and had never encountered water wars, so Cao Cao did not take the navy seriously. But as the north was gradually pacified, Jingyang went south and was increasingly placed on the agenda.

Judging from the situation mentioned by Jia Xu and Cao Ren, Cao Cao knew that if he wanted to fight south in the future, this Jinfan navy would definitely become a strong resistance.

"Zi Xiao, have you ever tried to attack him?" Cao Cao asked solemnly.

"The Jinfan thief army is very familiar with the waterways on both sides of the Huai River. It is elusive and never competes with our army on land. It is extremely cunning!" Cao Ren shook his head helplessly and said, "The last general has designed it many times, but it has not worked!"

Cao Cao stroked his beard and pondered for a moment, looked up at the civil and military officials in the hall and asked, "Do you guys have any good solutions?"

"Prime Minister, since Jiang Qin was an old minister of the Sun family, You thought that he might not be very loyal to Liu Bei. Maybe he could entice him to give up Liu Bei and surrender to the Prime Minister.

"Because Guo Jia is the most flexible and clever mind, Xu You, a person who is also famous for his wise and quickness, has the opportunity to fully display himself. "And there should be more than one person like Jiang Qin in the Jinfan Navy. As long as you make a profit, You believe that many people will surrender.

In this way, not only can Liu Bei's naval army be greatly weakened, but these naval army can also be used by the Prime Minister. It is convenient for the Prime Minister to fight south in the future. In addition, it can also cause Liu Bei to be suspicious of the Sun surrendered generals."

"This is a three-killing strategy!" At the end, Xu You looked at Xun Yu, Xun You and others. He said with a slight pride.

"Yeah..." Cao Cao nodded slowly, and said happily, "Ziyuan's plan is exactly what I want."

Although he couldn't stand Xu You's ostentatiousness, Xun You nodded and agreed with Xu You's strategy, but then said: "The lobbying and temptation strategy can only be used as an auxiliary. According to You's opinion, our army should also train a navy army early for future use in the southern expedition.

”

"The practice of naval army and lobbying strategies are not wrong, and can be carried out at the same time!" Cao Cao immediately made a decision and said, "Lu Qian, the governor of Xuzhou, was ordered to build the Xuanwu Pond in Hongze Lake, and be responsible for forming the training naval army. Qing and Xuzhou were responsible for supervising the construction of warships!"

…………

After the meeting was completed, Cao Cao ordered everyone to leave, leaving Xun Yu and Cao Pi, also known as the person who followed him to the back hall to get two thousand-year-old Changbai Mountain Ginseng tributed by Liaodong Prefect Gongsun Du. He ordered Cao Pi to carry it himself, and the three of them took a car to Guo Jiadi's mansion.

Since Shangyong returned, Guo Jia's physical condition has been poor. According to the imperial physician in the palace after diagnosis and treatment, Guo Jia's physical deterioration was caused by disobedience to the water and soil of Jingbei.

Cao Cao was very tight to Guo Jia's body. In order to make him feel at ease, he not only let the imperial physician stay in Guo Jia's mansion, but also forcibly ordered Guo Jia not to be appointed as the director and to send various nourishing products to Guo Jia's mansion every few days.

However, nearly half a month has passed, Guo Jia's health has not improved much...

In mid-June of the eighth year of Jian'an, Han Song, a member of the Jingzhou Muzhizhong, visited Lujiang. After some discussion, the two families formed a more reliable alliance.

In late June, Huang Chengyan and Sima Hui visited Lujiang. They immediately invited them to the provincial governor's mansion to talk about these two long-known elder brothers (mainly because of Sima Hui, whom Huang Chengyan already knew each other).

This narrative lasted for five hours, from noon to late at night.
