Zhang song had no way to refute, so he said: "dare to ask Jia Shangshu, what's the advantage of attacking Cao Cao? You know, today's Cao Cao is not weak. You said that Cao Cao and Gongsun Zan helped to attack Yuan Shao. But in the same way, when attacking Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and Liu Bei will help, and Cao Cao's own strength is not weak. "
Zhang Song said in a voice: "carefully speaking, the pressure of attacking Cao Cao is far greater than that of attacking Yuan Shao."
Jia Xu said: "I don't think so."
"To attack Cao Cao, we should not attack him directly, but pay attention to strategy."
"This is war."
"In war, we have to pay attention to coping strategies and the ways and means of action."
"In my opinion, to deal with Cao Cao, there must be three arrangements at the same time."
"First, to deploy an army to the border of Hanoi County, pretending to attack Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao must be alarmed at the gathering of this army, and he will turn to Cao Cao and others for help in order to resist. "
"If Cao Cao sent troops into the state of Jin, it would be the best. If Cao Cao did not send troops into Jin, it would have no effect. Because the purpose of this army is to frighten Yuan Shao. "
Jia Xu said: "just now Zhang ziqiao also said that after the state of Jin went through the big Jin bank, the losses were huge. The lack of troops weakens our strength. "
"Under this premise, only when Yuan Shao becomes a trapped animal can he fight and fight to death. But now, he won't, because once he comes to the aid of Cao Cao, the army of Hanoi county can drive straight into Jizhou and directly attack Huanglong. "
"This is what Yuan Shao is afraid of."
"In fact, with Yuan Shao's character, when he saw us garrison in Hanoi County, he finally knew that our goal was Cao Cao. He would only choose to sweep the snow in front of the door, but could not rush to help Cao Cao."
"This is the means to contain Yuan Shao."
Jia Xu waved his sleeves and continued: "on the contrary, it is obviously impossible to garrison troops at the border of Wei state to deter Cao Cao from sending troops. After all, Cao Cao's strength is stronger than Yuan Shao's, he is enough to defend
The situation was clearly analyzed by talking about it.
Zhang Song's face changed slightly.
Jia Xu is so powerful that he has such a deep calculation. He didn't consider this step at all.
Sima Yi sat down and heard Jia Xu's words. Her eyes were full of splendor. For a long time, although Sima Yi's teacher is Hu Zhao, he always consulted Jia Xu on the management of state affairs, especially on strategy, as if he treated Jia Xu as half a teacher.
He was glad to hear that.
Ginger is still old and spicy.
Zhang Xiu asked: "Wenhe, what's the second step?"
Jia Xu replied: "the second aspect is to send orders to Huang Zhong of Jingzhou to quietly transfer his troops from Nanyang County to Jiangxia county. The army is hiding in Jiangxia county and is ready to surprise Liu Bei's Runan County."
"We are attacking Cao Cao as well as Liu Bei."
"When Cao Cao is attacked, Liu Bei will not sit back and ignore him. He will unite with Cao Cao to fight against us. Then Liu Bei's troops have been fighting with our army since Runan County left. This force stationed quietly on the border of Jiangxia County in the south of Runan County can raid Runan and enter Liu Bei's jurisdiction. "
"Work hard and don't destroy Liu Bei."
"Liu Bei's jurisdiction failed. Liu Bei could not help Cao Cao for his own sake."
"By then, Cao Cao's strength will be weak."
"It will be much easier to defeat Cao Cao."
Jia Xu's eyes twinkled with light, and he continued: "the second aspect is to calculate Liu Bei."
Gudong!
Zhang Song swallowed a mouthful of saliva again.
When he looked at Jia Xu, there was a look of horror in his eyes. Previously, he used the reason that when Jia Xu proposed to attack Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and Liu Bei would resist at the same time. But now, after Jia Xu's words, all the arguments he refuted were refuted, even he agreed with them.
This is the most embarrassing.
Jia Xu continued: "the third aspect is simple. That is to secretly mobilize the troops and wait for me to join the army of Hanoi county to see Cao Cao's decision. If Cao Cao sent troops, he would be the best. Finally, our army suddenly entered the territory of the state of Wei and beat Cao Cao unprepared. If we deal with Cao Cao in three ways, we are bound to win. "
After a pause, Jia Xu said faintly: "Zhang ziqiao, what do you think?"
Zhang Song slightly ugly face, quite embarrassed, arched his hand and said: "what Jia Shangshu said is very true, Zhang Song admire." With that, Zhang Song looked at Zhang Xiu again and said, "Your Highness, Jia Shangshu is a great talent. He's in a humble position."
Zhang Xiu looked around and said, "do you have any different opinions?"
Li Ru said: "Your Highness, there is something to add to your humble position."
Zhang Xiu said, "but it doesn't hurt to say so!"
Li Ru said: "in dealing with Cao Cao, why not make use of the emperor? Use the royal guards to spread the news and incite the emperor to stir up trouble in Xudu. Although the loyal ministers under the emperor's command, like leeks, are constantly harvested by Cao Cao, they are also growing up. There are always people who go to the side door of the emperor for power. So, these are available. "Zhang xiuhan said: "this arrangement is really acceptable. However, it is also included in the battle against Cao Cao. "
After that, Zhang Xiu looked at the rest of the people again, and none of them had more opinions.
They all agree with Jia Xu's plan.
Pang Tong said: "Your Highness, we should choose to send troops. Then, when shall we send troops?"
Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "wait until the early spring of next year, we will send troops. This year, we will not send troops for the time being."
Pang Tong nodded and said nothing more.
It's OK to wait until the spring of next year to send troops. After all, we have to go according to Jia Xu's plan. There are still many things to be busy and many things to prepare.
Zhang Xiu ordered: "the plan will be made, detailed arrangements, led by the Ministry of war, gradually arranged."
"Here it is
Jia Xu bowed his hand to answer the question.
Zhang Xiu's eyes turned to Xu Shu and asked, "Yuanzhi, how's the sweet potato thing going? Today's sweet potato is growing
Xu Shu replied, "please tell your highness that all the sweet potatoes transported back from Yizhou are used for planting. Through continuous cutting seedlings and large-scale planting, hundreds of acres of sweet potato have been planted. Now, these hundreds of acres of official land are all under supervision. However, the promotion of sweet potato has not been carried out yet. "
"After all, the people haven't seen the real object yet."
"My plan is to wait for the sweet potato to mature, and then carry out large-scale publicity. In addition, people were invited to try it on the spot. And our officials in Daqin will also participate in the trial. "
Xu Shu, confident and calm, said, "after the people have witnessed it, they will naturally believe it. Hundreds of mu of sweet potatoes are enough to spread to Chang'an and even parts of Guanzhong. At that time, the people in the world will be shocked by this. "
"Yes!"
Zhang Xiu nodded in agreement.
He agreed with Xu Shu's arrangement. In the current situation, if we want the people to accept that empty talk is useless, we have to rely on real interests.
Just like Daqin bank in the past, because people can make money, and Daqin bank has resisted cashing, it can win the trust of countless people, otherwise it is impossible for people to believe.
Zhang Xiu asked, "how long is it expected to mature?"
Xu Shu replied, "according to the report of the planter, all the sweet potato vines have turned yellow now. More than half a month at most, it will all wither and yellow. And the planters have dug up some sweet potatoes. This year, the growth of sweet potatoes is excellent. Each sweet potato is very big. "
Zhang Xiu said: "since it's only half a month, let's start the publicity."
"Here it is
Xu Shu should bow his hand.
