Cao Cao changed his words and said, "Mr. FA has great talent. Under Liu Zhang's command, he is really wronged. Even if Liu Zhang could hold Yizhou for a while, it would be only a short time. For a long time, Yizhou will lose. As I said before, Mr. FA is willing to come to the center of the imperial court and appoint you as the prefect of a county. "
"No need!"
Fazheng shook his head and said, "in his position, seek for his administration. How can I betray my Lord if I accept his kindness. "
"What a pity, what a pity!"
Cao Cao shook his head one after another.
He is a person who loves talents, especially loyal people.
Previously, Cao Cao did not hear Fazheng say that he would travel 300 Li a day. He did not have much intuitive impression of Fazheng and even despised him. We can learn that Fazheng travels three hundred miles a day, and that the logical thinking of Fazheng is so clear that Fazheng is a talent.
It's a pity that such talents can't be brought under their command.
But Fazheng did not stay and left immediately.
Cao Cao stood up to see him off.
After seeing Fazheng off, he immediately arranged for someone to invite Xun Yu, Xun you, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia and others.
When the crowd came in, Cao Cao said directly about Fazheng's intention and said, "now Zhang Xiu is going to attack Liu Zhang. What do you think of the war between Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei
Previously, Cao Cao promised Fazheng that he would make an alliance with Yuan Shao and Liu Bei. In fact, he just gave Fazheng a perfunctory talk. We have to ask the people under our command how to choose.
The decision will be made after the opinions of all parties are synthesized.
Cheng Yu thought and said, "Sikong, I agree to send troops. Fazheng's analysis is reasonable. He can attack Liu Bei now and in the future. After all, Liu Bei's strength is not very strong. "
Guo Jia said: "even if we give Liu Bei a few more years to develop, we can still restrain Liu Bei. But once Zhang Xiu captured Yizhou, it would be the biggest threat to us. At that time, Zhang Xiu, who can advance, attack and retreat, can't resist. "
When they heard the speech, they all nodded in agreement.
Zhang Xiu's strength is well known. Everyone has seen it. It's too difficult.
Xun Yu thought about it carefully and said, "I agree with the analysis of Zhongde Gonghe and fengxiao. The first priority now is to contain Zhang Xiu and not let her strength expand too fast. "
"Yuan Shao had a chance to capture Youzhou after he defeated Gongsun Zan. But in the battle between Yuan Shao and Zhang Xiu, his son died in Zhang Xiu's hands. Even Gongsun Zan of Youzhou revived and took control of Youzhou again. "
"Under this premise, Yuan Shao had only two places, Bingzhou and Jizhou. He was afraid that his strength was not enough."
"In today's world, the most powerful person is Zhang Xiu."
Xun Zheng said: "so the humble position also thinks that the first priority is to send troops to attack Zhang Xiu. It's not too late to weaken Zhang Xiu and then consider dealing with Yuan Shao and Liu Bei."
Cao Cao nodded slightly, and his heart agreed.
This is just the general direction!
When it comes to sending troops, there must be more detailed strategies.
Cao Cao thought about it for a while and then said, "under the current situation, we are going to send troops, so how can we send troops? Only in this way can we ensure that this attack on Zhang Xiu will be profitable. "
Guo Jia said: "my Lord, there is a way to be humble."
Cao Cao said, "how can a military strategist set up a general?"
Guo Jia stood up and said in a loud voice: "when we are attacked, Zhang Xiu not only has to tear off a piece of meat from her territory. In addition, we need to deal with Liu Bei's threat. "
Cao Cao said: "how to operate?"
Guo Jia replied, "send someone to Runan to fight with Liu Bei. In addition, Liu Bei was persuaded to fight hard and join us in fighting for Nanyang County from Yanzhou. "
"At that time, we will take Nanyang County. Jingzhou, which is to the south of Nanyang County, will be handed over to Liu Bei."
"The prerequisite is that Liu Bei can gain a firm foothold in Jingzhou and hand over the territory occupied by Yuzhou. In this way, it will kill two birds with one stone, which will not only weaken Zhang Xiu, but also solve Liu Bei's threat. "
Guo Jia put forward suggestions.
Cheng Yu said: "fengxiao's strategy is good, but will Liu Bei agree?"
"I will agree."
Guo Jia's face was firm, and he said: "Yuzhou is in the fourth World War. Liu Bei is not stable in Yuzhou. Now under our attack, Liu Bei is already in a dilemma. "
"On the contrary, Jingzhou is located in the south, but it is suitable for Liu Bei to be stationed."
"Liu Bei will agree to our terms. As long as Liu Xiu's troops stay in Jingzhou at last, they will not let us go. "
"Jingzhou is also one of Zhang Xiu's granaries, which is quite crucial."
Guo Jia's eyes twinkled with light and said: "Zhang Xiu will not let Liu Bei stay in Jingzhou all the time, but will attack Liu Bei constantly. In this way, we can use Liu Bei to weaken Zhang Xiu's strength. "
"Wonderful! How wonderful
Cao Cao's face was full of joy.
Cao ang was also sitting at the bottom. He took part in all military affairs, so he took the initiative and said, "commander Guo, after Liu Bei entered Jingzhou, because Jingzhou is adjacent to Yuzhou, what if Liu Bei does not withdraw from Yuzhou?""Ha ha, no way!"
Guo Jia shook his head and said, "young master ang, Zhuge Liang under Liu Bei is a wise man. It is impossible for him not to withdraw. Once Liu Bei is still in Yuzhou, he will continue to be our enemy. At the same time, in Jingzhou, Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu are enemies. With Liu Bei's strength, it is impossible to be the enemy of the Lord and Zhang Xiu at the same time. "
After a pause, Guo Jia continued: "Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu have a deep hatred. On the contrary, it is Si Kong who once sent troops to rescue Liu Bei and rushed to rescue Liu Bei several times. Under this premise, Liu Bei can only rely on Sikong. "
After hearing this, Cao ang showed approval on his face and said, "what the military strategist said is true."
Cao ang fully understood Guo Jia's analysis.
Cao Cao looked around the crowd and said again, "do you have any objection to the attack on Zhang Xiu?"
"No!"
All of them answered.
All of you are extremely intelligent people who can understand the pros and cons.
Cao Cao brushed his sleeve and said, "in that case, I'll send an order to Mao Xun to send him to Runan army and go to Pingyu county to see Liu Bei. My official and Liu Bei are willing to turn fighting into friendship. We both joined hands to attack Zhang Xiu. "
"Here it is
Xun Yu responded directly.
Most of the government affairs were handled by Xun Yu.
Xun Yu then asked, "Lord, who will Yuan Shao send to lobby?"
Cao Cao said with a smile, "how about letting Xu you go?"
"Not right!"
Xun Yu immediately shook his head and said, "Yuan Shaogang is self willed. Once he sees Xu you, I'm afraid he will kill him immediately. At that time, I'm afraid Yuan Shao will think it's a demonstration. Please don't talk to us
Cao Cao said: "if you don't want to panic, my official is just a joke. This time, Xun you was the envoy. Under the command of yuan Benchu, there were children of Xun family. It's just right for Xun you to go. "
"Here it is
Xun you sat down and answered directly.
It is not difficult for him to go north to lobby Yuan Shao.
Cao Cao arranged the rest of the things, so that the people would step down. At this time, Cao Cao had a look of joy and expectation on his face. He once fought with Zhang Xiu several times, but every time he was flat.
In particular, the last time Zhang Xiu served as an envoy to Xudu, Cao Cao was embarrassed, and even his officials were embarrassed one by one.
Cao Cao remembers such things.
Now, led by Liu Zhang, he is willing to fight Zhang Xiu again. Cao Cao knew that Zhang Xiu was very powerful. He didn't want to destroy her. After all, Zhang Xiu could retreat into Xiliang or even Hanzhong.
As long as it can weaken the strength of Zhang Xiu, and even split Jingzhou out, that is excellent.
