Riding and cutting the imperial pirates of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 426 False Dao Destroying Guo
After Wang Zheng and Li Ren finished chatting, it was already afternoon, and Xuzhou at the end of May had begun to be sweltering, and there was no wind. The green trees in the courtyard were under the bright sunlight, elongating their shadows.There was no one in the courtyard, it was quiet.Wang Zheng thought about it for a while, but had no idea.Suddenly I heard quick footsteps, but it was the captain of the personal army who came to report: "Mr. Feng Xiao asks to see you."

"Oh?" Hearing this, Wang Zheng put down the letter, sat upright, and waved his hand, "Please."

Not long after, Guo Jia stepped in, but saw that although he was well-dressed and meticulously dressed, there was only a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, and a sickly blush on his face. This scene fell in Wang Zheng's eyes, and he couldn't help but feel faint. Worry is born.

You have to know that in the original history, the other party was just like Zhou Yu, a short-lived ghost who belonged to heaven's jealous talents. Even though Wang Zheng repeatedly advised him, according to the information reported by Mi Fang's secretary of life, Guo Jia still went his own way, and he was not bad at anything. It's not a solution to drink more and eat less for a long time.

It’s just that it’s useless to talk, he watched Guo Jia salute to himself panting after entering the hall, and before he had time to speak, he grabbed the fan on the desk beside him and shook it violently, he couldn’t help but smiled warmly: “People say It’s July, it’s only May, Feng Xiao can’t take it anymore?”

"Come here, ask the kitchen to fetch some cold soup to relieve the heat with your husband."

Not long after, after Guo Jia rested for a while, Jiang Jiang adjusted his breath, and immediately smiled at Wang Zheng, "I have some good news, please report it to the lord."

"What's the matter?"

"General Zang has entered the Jiaodong area, and the last few cities in the north of Xuzhou, Jimo, Zhuangwu, and Ting counties have all surrendered."

"Really?" Wang Zheng and Jiang Mei suddenly got up and said, "Jiaodong has been pacified?"

"How dare I lie about the military situation in front of my lord?" Guo Jia shook his sleeves with a smile, took out two documents, handed them to Wang Zheng, and said: "The Beihai family in the Jiaodong area, signed by important officials, half an hour ago, surrendered The book and the victory report were sent to the Sima Mansion, and I was discussing military affairs with General Xu Fang at that time, after I learned about it, I reviewed it and found nothing wrong, so I immediately rushed to report to my lord."

Wang Zheng started to watch, it could be the letter of surrender in Jiaodong area and the good news of Zang Ba, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Jiaodong is already the easternmost area of ​​Beihai. These three cities are equivalent to the entire Beihai country completely falling under his control. The remaining Donglai is not a concern. I am afraid that thousands of soldiers will be enough to completely calm down. Then He said that he could transfer some of the garrisons from Yujin back to Xuzhou again, and the more cards he could play.

"Mr. brought good news." After reading it, Wang Zheng was overjoyed for a moment, then thought of Yangzhou again, couldn't help but glance at Guo Jia, and said with a smile, "However, the purpose of Yuan Shu's envoy here, we don't know I guessed wrong."

"guessed wrong?"

Guo Jia couldn't help being startled, this time he took the letter from Wang Zheng, but didn't look at it a few times, first he frowned, then smiled, and then threw it away casually: "Everyone with a discerning eye knows that Sun Cefei has lived under others for a long time. In his generation, Yuan Gonggong didn't know people with his eyes, and it was difficult to detect dangers first. When he heard that he sent Sun Ce to attack Danyang and Wujun, Jia knew that this was a return of the tiger to the mountain, and he let the dragon enter the sea. If you suffer from troubles, and block the hope of the world, you have to blame yourself."

"However, my lord, Yuan Shu came here to borrow troops, and didn't he just want to take the opportunity to test whether the lord is now a friend or an enemy. How can this be our guess?"

"Haha." Wang Zheng couldn't help laughing, waved his hand casually, and then returned to the main topic: "Then Feng Xiao thinks that Yuan Shu came to borrow troops, should he or not?"

"If God does not take it, you will be blamed instead!" Guo Jia stared at Wang Zheng, his eyes sparkled brightly, and he said seriously: "How can such a golden opportunity be missed, of course we have to borrow it!"

Too bad, Feng Xiao is also thinking about Jiangdong!

Seeing that Guo Jia's expression had changed drastically, and he was no longer as lazy as before, Wang Zheng guessed what he was thinking, and couldn't help feeling a little headache. Just as he didn't know how to answer the conversation, footsteps sounded again outside the hall, but Wu Sheng, Xu Fang, Mi Heng, Zhang Zhao, Mi Fang and others also all came.

"Let's all take a look."

Wang Zheng just took this opportunity to divert the topic, and showed Yuan Shu's letter to everyone: "Yuan Shu wants to show that I am also the governor of Yuzhou, and wants to use this as an incentive to ask me to send troops to Xuzhou to help him put down Sun Ce's chaos. What do you think? What do you think? Opinion? Say what you want, and go ahead.”

"Borrowing soldiers?" Wu Sheng flatly refused before even opening the letterhead. He walked out with his head held high and his chest held high, with a look of disdain on his face, "Old man Yuan knows how to calculate. Let's help him beat Sun Ce? It's a good idea, General, we can't make clothes for others by ourselves."

Wang Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard the last sentence, and he couldn't help but glared at Wu Sheng. He knew that this idiot must have forgotten how to say "marry for others", and wanted to imitate others' quotations, so he randomly pieced together such a nondescript passage.

After Xu Fang read the letter, he pondered for a while, then looked at Wang Zheng, and said in a deep voice, "General, although the Battle of Beihai took a long time, most of it was due to geographical reasons. The main force has started to rest in rotation, and the morale, fighting spirit, and physical strength of the brothers are at their peak, and now that Beihai is established, the transfer of the surrendered troops and garrisoned troops on the other side of Yujin is also going on at random."

Zhang Zhao knew the elegant meaning when he heard the string song, and immediately echoed: "What General Xu said is very true. Our army is rushing to Beihai first and then slowing down. Although it takes a long time, the change of regime has basically been completed. And a few days ago, Xiang County's Gao Lan also sent back the military report, saying that after intense construction and day and night rush work, the new city has now been built, and some heavenly troops have been sent, and the outer defense line of Yuzhou can be said to be a success. Tan can't take care of himself, now the north and west can be said to be worry-free!"

"Exactly."

Mi Heng also said: "My lord Lai is wise, with one mind in civil and military affairs. I, Xuzhou, now have no troubles from outside and no worries from inside. When the wheat is about to ripen in May, Yuan Shu suddenly came to borrow troops. I thought I might as well take advantage of this opportunity. Talk about my next move in Xuzhou."

This is all thought of together.

Wang Zheng was getting more and more headaches, Tiger Eyes toured the audience and asked, "What do you think, what should you do?"

Mi Heng opened his mouth, and was about to speak, when he saw Wang Zheng looking over with a half-smile, his heart skipped a beat.

He suddenly remembered Wang Zheng's reaction to this topic last time, hesitated for a while, and said: "I don't have much knowledge, so I dare not speak first, I'd better invite Mr. Zibu and Feng Xiao to speak first."

Guo Jialang laughed and said: "What General Xu Fang said just now is very reasonable, and it coincides with my minister's opinion. Our army in Xuzhou is now strong and powerful, and we have the power to destroy the country. If the lord has the heart to open up the frontier, it is expected to win the hearts of the people. Available!"

Hearing this, Xu Fang nodded in agreement: "The officers and men under my command have all been eager to fight in recent days!"

At this moment, Wu Sheng was the only one in the arena who didn't understand. He asked in bewilderment, "Open the frontier? Where is the open territory? To fight Cao Cao or Yuan Tan?"

Just as Guo Jia was about to answer, Wang Zheng waved his hands impatiently and said, "Yuan Tan is just a ringworm on the skin. As for Cao Cao, it is indeed a serious problem, but it is not time to solve it."

Where is that?
Wu Sheng blinked his eyes, looked at Wang Zheng first, saw that he was too lazy to pay attention, and looked at Guo Jia for help.

There is no way, when it comes to relationship, among the three civil servants in the field at this time, this is the one who has a relatively harmonious relationship with him.

Guo Jia was also very face-saving, and said two words with a smile: "Jiangdong!"

"Jiangdong?" Wu Sheng finally understood: "Mr. Feng Xiao, what you mean is that we pretended to help Yuan Shu put down the rebellion, but we actually took the opportunity."

"That's right!" Guo Jia said with a smile: "There is a saying in Zuo Zhuan, Jin Xun Xi please take advantage of yielding, and the wall of hanging thorns, false way in Yu to attack Guo!"

Having said that, he paused, turned his head to look at Wang Zheng, bowed his hands and bowed down: "Although my lord has won Xuzhou, it is on the banks of the Central Plains, and it is close to many enemies in the north!"

"Many enemies will lead to many tasks, and multiple tasks will lead to many changes. If you take this opportunity to seize Yangzhou, you will become a triumvirate in the east of the Yangtze River. Afterwards, Yuan Shu will be wiped out, and Liu Biao will be conquered. You will be able to occupy all of the Yangtze River, and then you will be named emperor. Mapping the world is the work of Emperor Gao!"

In ancient China, the North was strong and the South was weak. Only at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty and before the Three Kingdoms came to power, because of the wars and disasters in the North and the Central Plains, both the gentry and the common people defected to this place, allowing the South to reach the After a stage where resources and wealth were almost equal to those of the north, until the middle of the Three Kingdoms period, the north had too much potential in terms of population, but it once again led by a lot.

In the original history, it was precisely because of Sun Ce's early death that Sun Quan took a long time to pacify the interior after he succeeded, which led to Soochow gaining geographical advantage but losing the sky. In the end, they could only join hands with Liu Bei to resist Cao Wei's pounce.

But if Wang Zheng were allowed to obtain Jiangdong at this stage, the situation would be very different.

Taking advantage of the time when the heroes in the north are hunting, he can take the opportunity to take Jingzhou and Jiaozhou in one fell swoop, which is equivalent to occupying all the territory south of the Yangtze River, which is to fully grasp the geographical advantages and timing!

If Cao Cao and Yuan Shao hadn't decided the winner at that time, he could even take the time to capture Yizhou together. At that time, it would be equivalent to dealing with the strong enemy in the north with nearly 3/5 of the strength, which can be said to be directly formed. The general trend, and people and harmony.
When the right time, place, people and all three are obtained, it will become a great trend, unstoppable, and directly crushed!

Guo Jia's analysis made sense. Not only did Wang Zheng understand it, but he also deeply agreed with it. From a certain point of view, he also had this strategy in mind when he abandoned Linzi.

just
Facing Guo Jia's eyes full of ambition and enthusiasm, Wang Zheng pondered for a long time, but still shook his head slightly: "We have known each other so far, Yuan Gonglu has never betrayed me, Jiangdong is not advisable for now!"

Hearing this, Guo Jia had a look of disbelief, and said, "How can there be such a woman's benevolence in fighting for hegemony?"

"My lord, is he worried about being a subject of the same dynasty with Yuan Shu, or that covenant? What's the difficulty? You only need to use words to lure him to proclaim himself emperor, and this generation will be a rebellious minister and traitor that everyone in the world can punish. My lord strikes It will be righteous!"

"Sir, have you forgotten that the threat from Yuan Shao and Cao Cao is still there?" Wang Zheng still disagreed: "If there is an internal fight between Yuan Shu and I, wouldn't it be an opportunity for this generation to take advantage of?"

"Jia was also worried about this before." Guo Jia said, "But after thinking about it again and again, I figured it out. If Yuan Shu dies and the foreign enemies go away, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao who are in the same northern region will instead form a situation where two tigers compete for food. better"

Forehead.
Unexpectedly, this excuse was also found by Guo Jia to refute it. Wang Zheng was speechless for a while, and his thoughts suddenly changed.

Seemingly seeing Wang Zheng's intentions, at this moment Zhang Zhao suddenly coughed dryly and interjected, "My lord, this letter only mentioned the reason why Yuan Shuru wanted to borrow troops, so what did Li Rendeng say when they met?" "

"How many troops are required, and other specific matters? For example, how to supply food and grass, and where are the guest troops stationed?"

This is a good question. After all, the relationship between Yuan Shu and Wang Zheng is not really harmonious. Zhang Zhao naturally understands what Xu Fang and Mi Heng said before, but he also feels that Yuan Shu cannot be defenseless against this.

What a Zhang Zibu!
Wang Zheng glanced at Zhang Zhao appreciatively, nodded and said, "Mr. is indeed a prudent person."

"Since it is said to be borrowing soldiers, Yuan Shu will naturally reward him." He looked around the crowd and said, "In addition to the false title of governor of Yuzhou, Li Ren also brought a great gift this time, just to make it clear."

"Li Ren also spoke on behalf of Yuan Shu. If the general is willing to borrow troops, the specific amount must be determined by him in Yangzhou. As for the supplies, food, and even equipment and armor during the war, they will all be provided by Yangzhou. Li Ren's words mean that if the Heavenly Army goes to the rescue, they are not allowed to enter the territory of Jiujiang, let alone approach Shouchun, and directly require us to station heavy troops along the Yangtze River, only responsible for fighting with Sun Ce's army."

Everyone can understand the meaning of the words. Yangzhou came to clarify the number of borrowed troops precisely to avoid too many Xuzhou troops and horses coming to aid, so as not to be difficult to control. At the same time, it also restricted the range of troops and horses. Take precautions.

Zhang Zhao nodded, then looked at Guo Jia, Guo Jia laughed loudly and said, "Such trivial skills are supposed to be from the hand of Yang Hong, what's the point?"

"If my lord wants to take Jiangdong, Jiazi has a way to deal with it!"

"Not yet." Wang Zheng sighed and shook his head again, this time he didn't even bother to make up the reason.

Guo Jia stopped talking now, and he could already see that Wang Zheng was really embarrassed to take the initiative to attack Yuan Shu because of the superficial things Yuan Shu had done.

Hey, the protagonist is young after all, young people have thin skins.

Consoling himself like this, Guo Jia didn't want to continue arguing with Wang Zheng anymore, after all he was not stupid, he knew very well that if Wang Zheng had made up his mind, no matter how eloquent his counselor was, it would be useless!

It's okay, just spend more time at most!

Guo Jia has already thought of another way in his heart. Isn't the main concern now just that he doesn't want to "bear Yuan Shu first"?Think of a way to make Yuan Shu "bear the lord first"!
Seeing that Guo Jia finally realized the interest, Wang Zheng also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a while, and then asked: "If you don't want to destroy Guo for the false way, Fengxiao, do you think we should borrow it or not?"

Then borrow a hammer!

Guo Jia glanced at Wang Zheng indifferently, and said indifferently: "My lord, if this is the case, I quite agree with what General Wu just said, and you should not marry others!"

Wang Zheng laughed dryly and nodded, "If that's the case, then then."

But at this time, Xu Fang came out proudly, bowed and said: "My lord, the last general thought that he would not plan Jiangdong for the time being, and this time he would also borrow troops to help Yuan Shu!"
