Chapter 418

"Don't drive Mi Zhu in Xuzhou. I've seen Liu riding."

"Zizhong, you are welcome. Please have a seat."

Mi Zhu sat down, while Liu Ye was very interested. Looking at the past, there have been many political speculators since ancient times. The most famous one was Lu Buwei, who supported the king of Qin and became prime minister. During the Three Kingdoms period, there was no lack of merchants who thought that "rare goods can be found". For example, Zhang Ping and Su Shishuang, who gave horse and iron to Liu Bei when he started his army, and Chen Liu County supported Cao Cao Cao's army Weiz.

In front of him, MI Zhu, who was also one of them, took aim at Liu Bei as soon as he met. He supported him with all his wealth and even refused Cao Cao's appointment. Moreover, MI Zhu not only gave money, but also gave people, and gave his sister, that is, Mrs. MI, to Liu Bei.

However, it turned out that MI Zhu had a unique vision. Liu Bei was beaten by Cao Cao for half of his life. Later, he captured Jingzhou and crossed Yizhou, establishing the Shuhan Dynasty and becoming the founder of the country.

"It's a great honor to know the name of Zhuqu from thousands of miles away." Mi Zhu is a little surprised to hear Liu Ye explain his own words.

Although he had a wealth of wealth, he had four ranks of scholars, peasants, businessmen and businessmen since ancient times. Although the merchants were rich, they had a very low status. Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty ordered that merchants should not wear silk and silk.

Although the policy was loose since the end of the Han Dynasty, the rich merchants were still looked down upon by the gentry from all over the country.

Liu Ye has never been to Xuzhou, but he knows Mi Zhu's handwriting. How can he not be surprised?

Of course, MI Zhu is not so arrogant that he thinks his reputation is known all over the world. It seems that Liu Ye knows people all over the world...

Liu Ye smiles and walks in his heart and says, "Zizhong is Xuzhou. Don't drive. How did you get to Puyang thousands of miles away?"

Liu Ye orders Xun you to be in charge of Luoyang and take charge of the center. At the moment, the Guanzhong area is surrounded by Liu Ye's territory. In the north, there is Lvbu guarding Bingzhou, and in the south, Xu Huang leaves Nanyang. Yanzhou falls into the hands of Liu Ye. Luoyang is as solid as gold.

But Yanzhou is different. To the north of Yanzhou is Yuan Shao's Jizhou, to the south is Yuan Shu's Yuzhou, and to the East is Tao Qian's Xuzhou, which is the front line. Moreover, he has just experienced the war, so Liu Ye is in charge himself.

Mi Zhu zhengse way: "Zhu special for the world?"

"Oh?"

"Ten days ago, Cao Cao's old father Cao song and his family went to Qingzhou from Mount Tai. In order to make friends with Cao mengde, Tao sent his commander Zhang Kai to lead the army to escort him. However, Zhang Kai saw the money and killed the whole family of Cao song..." Mi Zhu sighed: "Alas, Cao Cao thought that Tao Shijun was the commander, so he launched tens of thousands of troops to attack Xuzhou and massacre Xuzhou's people, which was not available to Xuzhou people No fear. "

Liu Ye frowns. Unexpectedly, Cao Cao's territory has been changed to Qingzhou, but now his father is still killed.

"Emperor Tao is willing to compensate Cao Cao for his grain and forage, but Xuzhou is the land of the imperial court, and he hopes that Liu Che will ask the emperor to stop Cao Cao." Mi Zhu bowed.

"Well, let's discuss with his staff. Please go down and have a rest." Liu Ye said solemnly.

"The general is the pillar stone of the imperial court, and Xuzhou is the place of the imperial court. Please look around and think twice!" Mi Zhu said and turned away.

"Wait a minute!"

When he heard someone stop himself, MI Zhu turned around and saw that the speaker was a thin and weak scholar of letters. He seemed to have a high status under Liu Ye.

Xun you is in Luoyang. Is He Jia Xu, a poison man under Liu Ye's tent?

"What is your name, sir?" Mi Zhu asked.

Guo Jia said, "where did Cao Cao's army attack?"

Mi Zhu replied: "Cao Cao took XiahouDun as the vanguard, and Zhuge Xuan, the prefect of Langya County, fell into the scheme of Cheng Yu. Now Langya county is lost. However, Tao has sent General Cao Bao to lead 20000 Danyang elite troops to Donghai County to join Zhao Yu to resist the Cao army. Before Zhu's diplomatic mission, the front of the two armies was maintained in the area of Shan county and Qu county. Tao has ordered Cao Bao to stick to it. Moreover, the people of Xuzhou are afraid of Cao Jun's slaughter of the city, so Cao's army should not be able to march in a short time. "

"Well, please don't drive, and write to Cao Bao, Zhao Yu and others quickly, telling them that no matter how the Cao army moves, they must stick to the city and never send troops!" Guo Jia warned.

Mi Zhu a Leng, but nodded: "Zhu know."

After MI Zhu left, Liu Ye asked, "fengxiao, how do you know Cao Bao will attack?"

Guo Jia smiles and shakes her head and says, "I have never been to Xuzhou. I haven't seen Cao Bao at all. Of course, I don't know if he will attack."

"But..." Guo Jia solemnly said: "a friend in Yingchuan sent a letter to him. Cao Cao sent Cheng Yu to Yingchuan to solicit wise men. Zhong Yao and Xi Zhicai had already gone to Qingzhou. Zhong Yuan is often good at governing politics, while the playwright is proficient in military strategy. He is especially good at disturbing the enemy's line of sight. Therefore, he can't help but deploy suspicious soldiers to achieve his goal. "

Liu Ye nodded: "well, brother Meng de has a close personal relationship with me, but it's not appropriate to launch an army to attack Xuzhou. After all, he is a great official in the frontier, but he attacks Xuzhou because of his personal gratitude and resentment. If the court does not stop him, his face will be gone and his dignity will be swept away."Guo Jia thought that Cao Jia's invasion was inevitable, but Cao Jia could not stop it

"First of all, after the war in Yanzhou, our army was short of food and grass, and could no longer support large-scale troop deployment. Moreover, hundreds of thousands of yellow scarf thieves captured consumed a lot of food and grass, so it was impractical to send troops."

"Second, Cao Cao was very intimate with the general. If the general intervened, he would offend Cao Cao. However, although Mi Zhu claimed that Xuzhou was the place of the imperial court, it was impossible for him to obey the orders of the imperial court." Guo Jia shook his head and said, "the Lord's dispatch of troops has offended Cao Cao, a powerful faction. If you don't say it, Xuzhou will not be convinced. It can be said that the gain is not worth the loss."

Liu Ye nodded and doubted, "according to what you said, how should Cao Cao retreat?"

Guo Jia said with a smile: "since Cao Cao slaughtered the city, he must lose the people's support in Xuzhou. As long as Tao Qian is willing to stick to it and make no major strategic mistakes, he must lose several cities at most and be able to resist Cao Cao's military front. Moreover, Yuan Shu can be ordered to send troops by the emperor's edict. Yuan Shu is Tao Qian's ally. Presumably, Tao Qian has asked him for help. Yuan Shu has a large number of soldiers. Even if he can't defeat Cao Cao, it should be no surprise to maintain a tie. "

Liu Ye nodded and looked at Jia Xu: "Wenhe, what do you think?"

Jia Xu said with a smile: "the proposal of filial piety is feasible. In addition, the general can personally terminate a letter to persuade Cao Cao to withdraw from the army with the feelings of personal friends. He can also pursue Cao song as a great Fu. In this way, he can eliminate the resentment in Cao Cao's heart."
