Chapter 69 The Unlucky Boss Liu
Xu Du, the location of the Han Dynasty today.
"Touch! Touch!"
From time to time, roars and the sounds of things falling out of Cao Cao's house came from the study room.
"Has the lord been like this these days?" A middle-aged scholar outside the study asked the guard beside him.
"Report to Shangshu Cheng! The lord has been like this these days!" The guard replied to the middle-aged scholar beside him.
The visitor was Cheng Yu, who could be regarded as one of Cao Cao's top strategists. His name was Zhongde. He was born in Dong'a, Dongjun, Yanzhou, and his real name was Cheng Li. He was renamed Cheng Yu because he dreamed of Mount Tai. He led the people to fight against the Yellow Turbans in Dong'a. In the third year of Chuping, he was enlisted as the Shouzhang Order by Cao Cao, and since then he made suggestions for him and fought in all directions.
Cheng Yu was seen in Yuzhou and Xuzhou. After Cao Cao welcomed Emperor Han, he even gave Cheng Yu the official position of Shangshu, as the prefect of Jiyin, and the governor of Yanzhou.
"Duke Zhongde, it is your and my duty to relieve worries for the Lord, but now!" Another person dressed as a scholar.
"I have said a long time ago that the big-eared thief is not a good person to meet with. He asked his lord to kill him, but someone slandered him and let him go. Now, I just drove away Lu Bu but lost Xuzhou again!" Cheng Yu's tone was full of mockery and regret. His words seemed to point out, and there was a tendency to be accused of guilt.
"Haha!" Another scholar next to him smiled awkwardly. The slandering person Cheng Yu mentioned was his uncle. Although he had advised Cao Cao to kill Liu Bei, the younger generation cannot say bad things about the elders, right?
"Gongda! What do you want to do now!" Cheng Yu asked. The embarrassing scholar beside him was Gongda, the name Xun You, and he was also a top strategist. Most of Cao Cao's ability to have such a territory was due to Xun You.
"Liu Xuande killed General Chewei and seized Xuzhou. Now our army confronted Yuan Benchu again in Guandu, and a big war could break out at any time. This battle would definitely be related to survival and death. There must be no negligence. Xuzhou is a key place. When our army attacked Lu Bu, it was because Xuzhou could go directly to our Yanzhou. It could be a knife at any time to make our army enter a land of no return! So whether it was Liu Bei or Lu Bu occupying Xuzhou, we had to drive them out. Xuzhou must be in our own hands!" Xun You deserved to be a top strategist and thought through the key to Xuzhou in an instant.
"Liu Da'er should be a master behind this!" Guo Jia also spoke. Now Cao Cao's four major strategists have reached three. Guo Jia shook the feather fan in his hand and looked like a prodigal son, which made Cheng Yu on the side very unhappy.
"So what if you have an expert? You don't want this Xuzhou!" Cheng Yu condemned.
Cheng Yu saw that he was unhappy for a long time, so Guo Jia was not angry and just smiled, "The master I mentioned is not the one who helped Liu Xuande, but the one who harmed Liu Xuande!"
"Damn Liu Xuande?!" Xun You and Cheng Yu were both thinking. Liu Bei could be said to be like a grandson when he was in Xudu. Now he supported Cao Cao and Yuan Shao to confront him. Guandu had Cao Cao's trust and killed Chewei to take Xuzhou. He could wait for a price. If Yuan Shao won this battle, Cao's army would definitely find allies in order to resist Yuan Shao's southward journey. Liu Bei would be very popular at that time and could open a lion to let Cao's army lose flesh at any time. One after another, Liu Bei's army became stronger and stronger, and Cao's army might be weaker and weaker.
If Cao Cao wins this battle, Yuan Shao's family will have great achievements and will recover even if they lose one game. It is impossible for him to go south again in a short time. Even if Cao Cao wins, he will win miserably and can only protect himself. Liu Bei can advance to the four states of Qingyan and Yangyu, and he can also retreat to the two states of Yangyu.
It can be said that no matter what the result is, Liu Xuande makes a profit! This must be guided by experts.
But Guo Jia said that this master was harming Liu Bei.
When Cheng Yu and Xun You were about to hear Guo Jia say why, Guo Jia stopped talking and pointed to his mouth with his finger, which means that he would only talk if he was thirsty. If there was water, there was only those generals on one side or only Xun You, Xun You and others might have handed the water over it. But now there is a Cheng Yu, a person who has been extremely rigid. Guo Jia was very upset at first, and Guo Jia is still in this position now.
OK! These two people are going to be angry and conflicted again! Xun You said with a wry smile.
Sure enough, "Guo Fengxiao, don't you say it or not, you are unrestrained and don't look like an official all day long. I want to go to the lord to tell you that you are not worthy of planning, not worthy of planning!" Cheng Yu's temper came up again. Cheng Yu belongs to the serious school and Guo Jia belongs to the casual school. When Cheng Yu, who has stubborn obsessive-compulsive school, meets Guo Jia, who is a casual school, the two must have a conflict.
After Cheng Yu said this, most people had already jumped up and argued with Cheng Yu, but Guo Jia didn't. He was just a casual panacea. Guo Jia used one hand to hold up the feather fan to block Cheng Yu's splashing saliva, and the other hand was cleaning his ears.
He had been tired of Cheng Yu's words, could he change them?
"You, you, you!" Cheng Yu pointed at Guo Jia so angry that he couldn't speak. He was glaring at him, but Guo Jia just didn't miss him.
"Okay! Fengxiao, just say it, Duke Zhongde is also for the good of his lord!" Xun You wanted to persuade him, but he looked at Guo Jia without any expression, just put it in Guo Jia's ear and said, "A hundred-year-old Du Kang!"
Guo Jia's eyes flashed, but there was a casual look on his face, and he stretched out one hand and opened his fingers.
"You are too cruel? Five altars?" Xun You pinched Guo Jia's three fingers directly, "Two altars!"
Guo Jia stretched out two more fingers! It means four oaths.
"Three cauldrons are at most, and why don't you grab the four cauldrons? If you like to talk about them, don't talk about them, even if you don't talk about them!" The century-old Du Kang in Xun You's family was not good, he bought them for a lot of money, and he couldn't bear to drink them.
"Three altars are three altars!" Guo Jia put down his feather fan and smiled.
At this time, Xun You didn't know where he had been fooled by Guo Jia. Even if he didn't have alcohol, Guo Jia would have to tell him.
"This damn prodigal son!" Xun You looked at Guo Jia's smiling face so angry that his teeth were itchy.
"The master behind Liu Xuande gave Liu Xuande a path to dominate on the surface, but in fact it was a path to kill Liu Xuande!" Guo Jia talked jokingly, "Xuzhou is a land of four battles, a grain-producing land! It has a large population, so it can be regarded as a good place to dominate! But that was also before Tao Qian!"
"Tao Qian?!" Xun You seemed to think of something "Tao Gongzu!" Before Liu Bei and Lu Bu appeared on the stage in Xuzhou, Xuzhou was from his Tao family, with tens of thousands of stones of grain and grass, and there were 100,000 grain and grass in Pengcheng alone.
There are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and there are also elite soldiers in Danyang. It can be said that the soldiers and horses are powerful.
But when Tao Qian got old, his two sons were really useless, so Tao Qian gave up Xuzhou in desperation.
"Before Tao Qian, Xuzhou was rich in land and people were rich, but Tao Qian later followed Liu Bei and Lu Bu, both of them wanted to dominate Xuzhou. In addition, our lord conquered Xuzhou three times. Xuzhou was abandoned and the people were displaced. The food and grass were also consumed in the wars over the years! The people of Xuzhou now hoped to get a stable life. Liu Bei now has Xuzhou, and Xuzhou will fall into war again, so Liu Bei lost the hearts of the people. Originally, there were not many food and grass, and Liu Bei lost the hearts of the people again. Do you think he could still occupy Xuzhou! Moreover, the soldiers and horses that Liu Bei took away were my Qingzhou soldiers! Do you think, who is important to our lord or Liu Bei in the minds of the Qingzhou soldiers?"
"So this battle will definitely be true, and one battle will determine the world!" A black fat man suddenly walked out of Cao Cao's study. Isn't this person Cao Cao?
"Lord!" The three scholars all returned the gift.
"Jia dares to ask the lord to personally conquer Xuzhou, and it will be decided in one battle!" Guo Jia suddenly fell to his knees on the ground and said.
