Chapter 13 Boss Cao's Calculations
"Liu Mang?!" Cao Cao was muttering a name in the palace palace of Lu Bu, who originally belonged to Lu Bu. From saving Lu Bu, to under the banner of Xiahou De, to breaking through to the final counter-espionage plan, almost all this person is visible!
"Han clan relative?" Cao Cao was stunned. Is another Han clan relative?!
This person really cheated him, and he almost lost his life. He only learned from the captive soldiers of Lu Bu's army!
"Great talent, great talent!" Cao Cao sighed, "It's a pity that it's not for me! I'm filial piety, do you think I can recruit this Liu Mang?!" It's not accidental that Cao Cao's success is related to his attitude towards talents.
"Lord! You're so careless!" Cao Cao's seat was a prodigal scholar who looked like a prodigal son and never stopped after he picked up the wine glass. He never even stood up when Cao Cao asked. It was such an arrogant attitude, but it was such an attitude that he would become the reputation of a generation of genius Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao.
"Not to mention that this person's plan almost killed your life, just General Xiahou Yuan, who was seriously injured by Lu Bu, do you think General Xiahou Dun would allow such a person to join us?!" Xiahou Yuan almost died at Lu Bu's hands. Even if he left his life now, he would have to recover for half a year! This revenge has been settled!
"I can clear the things from Yuan Rang and Miaocai!" Cao Cao was still a little unwilling to give up. For the sake of talents and his great cause, he would be humble!
"Haha, lord, lord, I understand your love for talent! But it depends on who it is!" Guo Jia smiled bitterly at his lord and shook his head. "It's basically a reward. This person is called Liu Mang a relative of the Han Dynasty. Do you think the Han Dynasty will be interested in you, Prime Minister Cao? Will he really serve you?!"
"It's so impossible! Isn't Liu Bei also a relative of the Han Dynasty?" He is still the Emperor's uncle! And Liu Ye and Liu Ziyang! Are they all under my command of Cao?!" Cao Cao said proudly.
"Liu Bei?!" Guo Jia sneered, "It's not a person who is content with his duties, it's better to get rid of this lord as soon as possible!" Guo Jia, Xun Yu and others regard the most as the thorn in the eyes among the Cao army now, this is Liu Xuande!
Guo Jia learned that Liu Bei's father Liu Hong died early, and the young Liu Bei and his mother were engaged in weaving mats and selling shoes. Life was very difficult. There was a mulberry tree on the fence in the southeast corner of Liu Bei's house, which looked like a car cover from a distance. People who came and went to think that the tree did not look like a mortal, and believed that this family must have noble people. When Liu Bei was having fun with children of the same clan, he pointed to the mulberry tree and said, "I will definitely ride such a feather-covered car in the future.
Huagai! This is only a person who is the 95th master is qualified to sit, but a person who weaves mats and shoes dares to speak like this. It can be seen that this person has great ambitions!
Sure enough, although Liu Bei and Liu Da'er were unsuccessful since the Yellow Turban, he always regarded himself as the Han clan, and finally even received recognition from Emperor Xian of Han!
This made Guo Jia even more wary of him! It is not scary to have ambitions, but what is scary is that he is too ambitious! If Liu Bei was alone, Guo Jia would not have been like this. The key is that Liu Da'er has three brothers! Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are all not ordinary people and have the talent of a general!
Guo Jia always advises Cao Cao to separate the three brothers and break them up, but they are resolved again and again by Liu Da'er. You said that as a minister, if you are loyal, why do you always hide the generals in your hands and not take them out? Do you want to rely on them to rebel?
"Yongxiao, although Xuande is unbearable, it is not the time to eliminate him!" Cao Cao was not reluctant to kill Liu Bei, but for such a suspicious person, he could kill three thousand others by mistake but not by leaving one!
But Cao Cao fell in love with Zhang Fei and Guan Yu on Liu Bei, especially Guan Yu, who are extremely powerful and well-read military books. He is loyal and is definitely a tiger general!
If I killed Liu Bei now, I would never conquer such a tiger general in my life!
"Oh!" Guo Jia also knew what this lord in his family was thinking! It is hard to get rid of the enemy if he wants to be a good general!
"As for Liu Ye and Liu Ziyang? Haha, lord, don't let me cover me, do you really dare to use him?" Liu Ye and Liu Ziyang are indeed talented, and this talent is not inferior to him, Guo Jia, but Cao Cao never really believed him!
Xu Shao of Runan once said that Liu Ye and Liu Ziyang had the talent of accomplice. According to Cao Cao's love for talent, he regarded Liu Ye as his confidant, but he never had it. Instead, he gave Liu Ye a Sikong official position, Cao Cao, what is this official position? Cao Cao is in charge of food and grass. If he is in charge of the three armies, his official position is very good, comparable to Zhang Liang of Liu Bang! But he added Sikong, and Prime Minister Cao was Cao Sikong, and Sikong official Cao was in charge of the money and food in Sikong's mansion. In other words, it means a big steward!
Such a talented person asked him to be a housekeeper! It can be seen that Cao Cao valued Liu Ye!
"You are filial piety, you can't hide anything from you!" Cao Cao said with a wry smile.
"How is the army preparing? It's really a trouble to leave Lu Bu this time!" Cao Cao no longer had any ideas about Liu Mang's recruitment, but now he is considering Lu Bu's army!
"Why should you panic, lord? Lu Bu is a tiger! The tiger that has lost its home is now sad! The pursuit will definitely lead to great casualties!" Guo Jia said after taking a sip of wine.
"Then won't chase him? Let him leave Lu Bu?!" Cao Cao didn't want to let Lu Bu go. The impressed him by that person was too deep. On Dong Zhuo's mansion, downstairs of Baimen! The power of a person is comparable to that of a ghost!
"Lu Bu lost Xia Pi, it was equivalent to losing most of Xuzhou! His 70,000 troops could break through only a few thousand! So the only thing he could do now is to find a chance to make a comeback to find troops to support him!" Guo Jia talked happily. "Lu Bu is known for his domineeringness, bordering Xuzhou, Qingyang Yuyan, and we naturally dare not come to Yanzhou! Although Lu Bu came from Yuan Shao's territory to our Yanzhou and then to Xuzhou, the Yuan family had no favoritism for Lu Bu! So Yuan Tan in Qingzhou could not accept him!
Yangzhou? Yuan Shu is unable to protect himself, even more impossible! Did you say he went there in Yuzhou?!"
"Where will Lu Bu go?!" Cao Cao asked,
"He doesn't go anywhere, he's still in Xuzhou!" Guo Jia is worthy of being a genius and guessed Lu Bu's where he was. "Langya! There are also the Taishan bandits of Zang Ba, one of the eight powerful generals of Lu Bu!"
"How could a mere bandits of Taishan, how could it be possible!" Cao Cao laughed. He had beaten all the Yellow Turban thieves, but he was still afraid of this bandits of Taishan!
"Lord, don't underestimate Zang Ba!" Guo Jia said, "If Chen Gong is among the talented and civil officials under Lu Bu's command, then the generals will be Zang Ba!"
"Oh?!" Cao Cao said in confusion, "How about Zhang Liao Gaoshun?"
"It's even better than that!" Guo Jia said. Although Zang Ba is not as famous as Zhang Liao, he is indeed a real person who has been the boss! There are many bandits in Taishan, with a large number of people, and a mixture of fish and dragons, but he is managed by Zang Ba to show his talent!
Comparing the training of the army and commanding the army, perhaps Zang Ba is not the opponent of Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, but comparing to commanding the generals, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun have to learn from Zang Baliang!
"What if Lu Bu gets the Taishan bandits, like a tiger, is it so strong? Xuzhou is just here! Is it going to start a war again?" Cao Cao was anxious. Lu Bu is a tiger, and Zang Ba doesn't seem to be a good deal!
Once the two of them merged, then he, Lao Cao, would be in trouble in Xuzhou.
"Lord, don't worry!" Guo Jia took another drink, his face turned red. Cao Cao was anxious, but he was as stable as silk!
"Xia Pi goes to Langya for more than 300 miles! If you are marching urgently, General Xiahou Yuan's subordinates will take about three days! And Lu Bu still has family members among his current men, and he probably will delay the speed. In this way, they will not be able to reach it without three or five days! Although Lu Bu's breakthrough this time was successful, he had a fatal flaw!" Guo Jia said that he would not say it here because there was no wine in the bottle!
"Come on, I'll give Guo Ji a drink!" Cao Cao's appetite was dropped by Guo Jia. He disliked the soldiers' slow drink and poured wine for Guo Jia himself!
"In addition to the family soldiers, Lu Bu lost food and grass!" Guo Jia said the key point!
"The three armies will go ahead before they move their food and grass!" Guo Jia said with a smile, "Three or five days say it is not long, but it is not short! People cannot starve to death, but they will definitely be hungry! The lord only needs to send a tiger and leopard cavalry to hang behind the Lu Bu army and move slowly. After three or five days, the day when Lu Bu army is so hungry that it is dizzy that it is time to capture Lu Bu!"
Cao Cao's face was full of joy after hearing Guo Jia's words, but he thought it was wrong! He hesitated again, "What if Lu Bu makes up his mind to march in a hurry? This way, we can reach the rounds of Langya and Zang Ba?!"
"Don't worry, lord, someone has helped me fight this front line!" Guo Jia didn't feel that he couldn't bear it at all after drinking a glass of wine that Lao Cao had poured.
"who?!"
"Chen Deng, Guangling!" Guo Jia said these four people! Chen Deng from Guangling is even more anxious than Cao Cao! Xuzhou was broken, and most of the reason was that their Chen family father and son gave advice and sold Lu Bu! So Lu Bu was the first to escape from trouble, but the Chen family was already on Lu Bu's blacklist!
The Cao Cao family has great business and is protected by personal soldiers and generals, but the Chen family does not. If Lu Bu makes a surprise attack and takes over Guangling of his Chen family, then the Chen family may have been removed from the list at the end of the Han Dynasty!
